United States of America, Appellee, v. James Franklin Morris, Jr., Appellant, 451 F.2d 969 (8th Cir. 1971)
US Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit - 451 F.2d 969 (8th Cir. 1971)
Robert A. Warder, Rapid City, S. D., for appellant.
Robert D. Hiaring, Asst. U. S. Atty., Sioux Falls, S. D., for appellee.
Before LAY, HEANEY and STEPHENSON, Circuit Judges.
STEPHENSON, Circuit Judge.
James Franklin Morris, Jr. appeals from his jury conviction for willful and unlawful escape from custody, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 751(a). District Judge Andrew W. Bogue sentenced appellant to a term of two years imprisonment.
On the date of the escape, July 21, 1970, appellant was being held at the Lawrence County Jail at Deadwood, South Dakota upon a commitment and federal grand jury indictment for passing counterfeit federal reserve notes, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 472.1 The record shows that three prisoners jumped a city police officer, took his gun and released the other prisoners confined at the jail. Appellant was identified by the officer as one of the prisoners leaving the jail and also holding the officer's gun which had been given to appellant by another prisoner. Deputy Sheriff Kelly, who captured Morris and two other prisoners while they attempted to depart in the city police officer's car, also identified the appellant as a participant in the escape.
Appellant initially claims his Sixth Amendment rights to counsel were denied in that he was unable to communicate with his counsel. We disagree.
Appellant's court-appointed counsel represented him at both the counterfeit bills and escape trials. It appears that appellant was located within the District of South Dakota for at least two weeks following counsel's appointment on the escape charge and for another 13 days immediately prior to trial, the two periods separated by four months while appellant was at the federal penitentiary in Leavenworth, Kansas. While appellant was in Leavenworth his counsel telephoned him twice and was informed the calls were being monitored and mail being censored by prison officers.
This Court has already had occasion to pass upon the issue raised. Recognizing the obvious security justifications for monitoring prisoner communications with the outside world, we said in Haas v. United States, 344 F.2d 56, 67 (CA8 1965):
"It well may be that a case of mail censorship could result in deprivation of the effective assistance of counsel in derogation of the Sixth Amendment. If, for example, the use of the mails constituted the only method whereby the defendant and his counsel could communicate with each other and such means of communication was censored, certainly the defendant then would have been deprived of his constitutional rights. We do not view the instant situation as comparable. Here defendant and his counsel were given every opportunity needed to communicate privately with each other during the ordinary visting hours at the St. Louis City Jail. The opening by the City Jail officials of mail between defendant and his counsel, done for security purposes, and the contents thereof not communicated to the prosecution, presents an entirely different situation." See also Ramer v. United States, 411 F.2d 30, 36 (CA9 1969).
As in Haas, there is here no showing whatsoever of a deprivation of constitutional rights. Indeed, appellant was located in the District of South Dakota for nearly a month during which arrangements could have been made for him and his counsel to communicate privately. No claim was made that counsel could not have visited privately with appellant during visting hours at the penitentiary. Nor was any application for a continuance filed on the grounds of inadequate time to prepare for trial.
Appellant further claims error in that the trial court denied his motion under Rule 17 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure for the issuance of subpoenas for two witnesses. Five days prior to trial, appellant made the motion to subpoena two prisoners being held at Leavenworth who allegedly were participants in the escape. Appellant claimed that one of them would testify that he had "knocked the policeman out, took his gun and opened the cell and forced Morris out of the cell." Appellant's counsel stated this testimony would relate to the affirmative defense of duress.
Fed. R. Crim. P. 17(b) reads as follows:
"Defendants Unable to Pay. The court shall order at any time that a subpoena be issued for service on a named witness upon an ex parte application of a defendant upon a satisfactory showing that the defendant is financially unable to pay the fees of the witness and that the presence of the witness is necessary to an adequate defense. If the court orders the subpoena to be issued the costs incurred by the process and the fees of the witness so subpoenaed shall be paid in the same manner in which similar costs and fees are paid in case of a witness subpoenaed in behalf of the government." (Emphasis added.)
Appellant asserts that upon the showing made at the hearing, the trial judge possessed no discretion and it was mandatory that he issue the requested subpoenas. It is apparent from reading Rule 17(b) and has long been the rule in this Circuit that compulsory process under the Rule is not an absolute right but, rather is a matter within the wide discretion of the trial court. Slawek v. United States, 413 F.2d 957, 960 (CA8 1969); Feguer v. United States, 302 F.2d 214, 241 (CA8 1962); Bandy v. United States, 296 F.2d 882, 892 (CA8 1961); and Reistroffer v. United States, 258 F.2d 379, 396 (CA8 1958). In Terlikowski v. United States, 379 F.2d 501 (CA8 1967), we said at p. 508:
"The object of the rule is to afford the trial court authorization to provide an indigent defendant with witnesses at Government expense when the necessity is shown that their presence is required to insure a fair and adequate defense. The decision on this issue is necessarily vested in the discretion of the trial court and a reviewing court should not reverse unless the exceptional circumstances of the case indicate that defendant's right to a complete, fair and adequate trial is jeopardized."
In the present case when appellant's motion for the issuance of the subpoenas for the two witnesses was orally presented to the Court, the Court inquired as to whether there was any way of knowing what the witnesses would testify to. Counsel for appellant indicated he was relying on what the defendant had told him "yesterday in jail" and what he had heard "roundabout through the grapevine" regarding the defense of duress. We are satisfied appellant failed to make a satisfactory showing that the presence of these witnesses was necessary to an adequate defense. Furthermore, the trial judge suggested that counsel contact the witnesses at Leavenworth on that same day and agree upon what their testimony would be. Interviewed, the witnesses both advised a Government representative that they would make no statement.2 Under these circumstances, we certainly cannot say the trial judge abused his discretion in denying appellant's motion. Indeed, the record overwhelmingly supports his determination.3
Appellant asserts that four exhibits introduced by the Government were erroneously admitted into evidence. We disagree. Exhibit 4, a photostatic copy of appellant's prisoner custody, detention and disposition record, was admitted after the United States Marshal testified that it was a true and exact copy of the original and that it was a public record within his custody. Furthermore, he stated that he had independent knowledge of the facts stated thereon. Exhibit 4 was therefore admissible.
Exhibits 1, 2 and 3 were copies of the commitments issued by a United States Commissioner and the indictment. All were official court records within the custody of the Clerk of the United States District Court for the District of South Dakota, attested to by the Clerk as being true copies of the originals, and on which the Court seal was attached. Rule 44(a) and 28 U.S.C. § 1733(b) have been substantially complied with. See Bayless v. United States, 381 F.2d 67, 73 (CA9 1967). In any event, the district court may take judicial notice of its own records. Chandler v. United States, 378 F.2d 906, 909 (CA9 1967). See, e. g., United States v. Halbrook, 36 F. Supp. 345, 346 (E.D. Mo. 1941).
Appellant next claims error in that the evidence was insufficient since there was no evidence that at the time of the escape he was in custody pursuant to a lawful arrest. We need only say that the statute is worded in the disjunctive, stating several sets of circumstances which constitute the crime of escape.4 Evidence of arrest on the counterfeit bills charge need not have been presented. See Rimerman v. United States, 374 F.2d 251 (CA8 1967) and McGriff v. United States, 408 F.2d 333 (CA9 1969). It was sufficient that appellant was in lawful federal custody at the time of his escape.
Finally, appellant claims that the trial judge invaded the province of the jury in directing them that appellant, as a matter of law, was "in custody by virtue of a process issued under the laws of the United States and was under lawful arrest." This instruction followed Judge Bogue's statement that two elements were required to be proved in order to establish the offense of escape; federal custody and escape. He later concluded, "Therefore, the remaining duty and burden is for you to determine whether or not the defendant escaped from that custody."
As we said above, since the statute is worded in the disjunctive, whether or not appellant was in custody pursuant to a lawful arrest is immaterial. The evidence of appellant's custody in the Lawrence County Jail, however, was undisputed. Whether this custody constituted "federal custody" was an issue calling for a legal conclusion bottomed on facts neither disputed nor challenged. In fact, the evidence, including the exhibits, established that appellant was in custody pursuant to a commitment issued by a United States Commissioner.
A careful examination of the record discloses that defendant was afforded a fair trial and his constitutional rights were fully protected.
The judgment is affirmed.
Appellant was subsequently tried and convicted on a jury verdict for the offense. His conviction has been affirmed by this Court on appeal. United States v. Morris, 445 F.2d 1233 (CA8 1971)
This case can be sharply distinguished from United States v. Stewart, 445 F.2d 897 (CA8 1971). Stewart had been convicted of a narcotics violation largely on the testimony of an informer who subsequently recanted his testimony by unsworn affidavit. Furthermore, the informer's refusal to testify (recant under oath) suggested "only his tentative reservation about testifying until given an opportunity to obtain the advice of counsel." Here we have no statements from the potential witnesses indicating the truth of counsel's allegation. What we do have is an unequivocal refusal by the witnesses to make any statement bolstered by the obvious fact that the statute of limitations had not run on their alleged criminal conduct
For a "classic example of abuse of judicial discretion" on a Rule 17 determination, see United States v. Hathcock, 441 F.2d 197 (CA5 1971). See also, Welsh v. United States, 404 F.2d 414 (CA5 1968)
18 U.S.C. § 751. Prisoners in custody of institution or officer
(a) Whoever escapes or attempts to escape from the custody of the Attorney General or his authorized representative, or from any institution or facility in which he is confined by direction of the Attorney General, or from any custody under or by virtue of any process issued under the laws of the United States by any court, judge, or magistrate, or from the custody of an officer or employee of the United States pursuant to lawful arrest, shall, if the custody or confinement is by virtue of an arrest on a charge of felony, or conviction of any offense, be fined not more than $5,000 or imprisoned not more than five years, or both; or if the custody or confinement is for extradition or by virtue of an arrest or charge of or for a misdemeanor, and prior to conviction, be fined not more than $1,000 or imprisoned not more than one year, or both.

Bald Blair Angus stud relies on cutting-edge Gallagher technology
For one of the oldest Angus studs in Australia, using the latest technology to measure livestock productivity is essential. The White family bought "Bald Blair" at Guyra on the Northern Tablelands in the NSW New England region in 1898. They've been running Angus there ever since. In 1908, FJ White and Sons started the Bald Blair Angus herd book, and some 11 years later, in 1919, was a founding member of the Angus Society of Australia.
For one of the oldest Angus studs in Australia, using the latest technology to measure livestock productivity is essential.
The White family bought "Bald Blair" at Guyra on the Northern Tablelands in the NSW New England region in 1898. They've been running Angus there ever since. In 1908, FJ White and Sons started the Bald Blair Angus herd book, and some 11 years later, in 1919, was a founding member of the Angus Society of Australia.
Today, FJ White's great grandson Sam, along with his wife Kirsty, runs the operation over 2,530 hectares (6,250 acres) of mostly freehold land across five properties.
The Whites' management approach today remains focused on livestock productivity, sustainability and profitability, building on the work of previous generations.
A pioneer of pasture improvement, Sam's grandfather H.F. White began weighing animals in the early 1950s to measure weight gain. Again building on the work of previous generations, today Sam and Kirsty remain dedicated to pasture improvement. Weighing animals to measure weight gain is fundamental.
However, the tools they use have changed in the ensuing century.
An article called "He looks for weight-gain" in the "Australian Country" newspaper in January 1957, talks about H.F. White's forward-thinking management. It reports he'd been working with the NSW Department of Agriculture for three years to weigh calves monthly up to weaning, then again "at about peak of growth". The article describes how Harold's farm-management decisions were based on animals having "exceeded the mean average daily weight gain" and their selection as "the ones most likely to make full use of the feed available".
Upgrading after 15 years
Recently, Sam and Kirsty bought a Gallagher TWR-5 Weigh Scale & EID Tag Reader. The new solution replaced a 15-year-old Ruddweigh W800 and hand-held reader.
Sam says they initially chose the Ruddweigh 800 in support of local businesses, because the Ruddweigh equipment was developed in Guyra by their good friends the Thomson family.
"It's not like a mobile phone that can die in two years, but it does give the Thomsons a chuckle that we've kept the W800 as backup still, along with the last W300 that's alive."
While they were impressed with their old solution, they're more than impressed with the new one.
"The Gallagher TWR-5 has made everything, including data transfer, a lot simpler, quicker and easier, so perhaps we should have done it a long time ago, however!"
Commercial and stud enterprises
The Whites run 1,000 breeding cows, plus all their progeny, giving them a bit over 2,000 head at the moment, along with 3,000 sheep. However, these numbers are reducing rapidly as the effect of the drought hits.
"The sheep flock is predominantly a sheep-meat operation, where we're supplying first-cross lambs and second-cross lambs to the feeder market.
"Of our 1,000 breeding cows, 400 are stud and 600 are commercial. The stud produces bulls and replacement females, while we sell the majority of commercial heifers, retaining 10-15%. All commercial steer progeny are normally grown out to feedlot entry specs for Rangers Valley Cattle Station."
Rangers Valley is a world-renown premium marbled beef producer specialising in long-fed pure Black Angus and Wagyu-cross breeds for both the domestic and export markets.
To meet stud-record obligations, Sam heads out every morning and afternoon during calving to catch and weigh every stud calf on the day it's born.
The commercial calves are weighed from weaning onwards, generally every few hundred days, until they reach the point for sale.
Weight gain focus
"Weight gain is one of the primary aspects in determining condition and which teams are ready to sell. That's why we like it, so we use the Gallagher TWR-5 on all our cattle. Whenever we've got cattle in the yards, having that ability to weigh and then assess weight gain from the last time to now, and whole-of-life gain, that whole screen, it is awesome. The ability to go from all animals in a session, to just the one animal that you've got on the scales, I love that. The simplicity and the time savings are great."
Set up key
Sam says working with Gallagher to set up the TWR-5 Weigh Scale and EID Tag Reader properly was key.
"We worked with the Gallagher help desk and gave them a file of all our management tags and corresponding NLIS tags, then we uploaded that into the TWR-5. So when an animal comes across the scales, it automatically comes up with their management tag and associated NLIS. That saves an incredible amount of time, because previously we had to key in the management tag for every animal, every time it came across the scales.
"Say I want to look up a stud heifer group or even just a particular animal; I just tap on the history and there's every session with that animal's weight and treatments.
"We find the transfer across onto the laptop easy. We use the HerdMASTER program to manage whole-of-life treatments we keep for all the animals – commercial and stud. That file works well with the Universal File import on the Gallagher TWR-5, so that's easy."
As far as Sam is concerned, "As long as I've got it in the computer at the end of the day, I'm okay."
Powering on
The Whites also have half a dozen mostly Gallagher energizers, several powered by Gallagher solar units.
Recently they installed an MB2800i Fence Energizer on a new property.
Sam says, "We didn't believe the energizer there was good enough. When I spoke with Chris Richards [Gallagher Territory Manager] about it, he suggested this one and using a High Conductive Wire to get more power out the back because we were having a lot of trouble with power drain. So we rejigged the earth, rejigged the main wiring to the point where we head off from the fence, and put this new energizer in. Now it's all good."
Sam says they also got the Remote & Fault Finder.
"Going all the way back to the shed to turn an energizer off to do a job is a pain in the proverbial. This unit helps find faults and you can turn the whole system off and then on again from where you are. That function is unbelievable!"
Time-efficiency goal
"We've got this on a 650-acre [263.2ha] property, doing all the external boundaries and internal fences. We've got switch-off points all down the laneway, which isolates sections, so we can find anything pretty quickly with the remote.
"The next step on the list is to have it all back to a phone [using an i Series WiFi Gateway and Dashboard Fence], because we want to bring in even more efficiencies in terms of the time in trying to find a short. That would make it a five-second job then.
"All this technology is evolving, and it's all about saving time."
Time savings come from having fence-performance information "in your pocket". Compatible with all Gallagher i Series Energizers, the i Series WiFi Gateway gives users the ability to manage the Energizer via the Gallagher Dashboard Fence app, providing regular, real-time fence information and alerts from the Energizer to a smartphone. The app reports on the unit and up to six configured fence zones, and can also be used to turn the Energizer on and off.
Happy with the story
Sam and Kirsty looked around briefly for livestock productivity tools, choosing Gallagher for several reasons.
Sam says, "We've done a lot of things with Gallagher, but what impressed me more than anything was the service, and Chris coming out and spending time with us. We were going to choose the more basic option instead of the TWR-5, but talking through what we needed and wanted and how we'd use it, yes this cost more, but at the end of the day, this whole system is going to suit us a whole lot better. So the service, and being able to talk about what we needed, was what impressed me.
"Gallagher is a Kiwi company, and the guy who owns it is still committed to agriculture, and that's what we like. We like the whole story, so we use Gallagher.
"What I also really like is the service that the Gallagher crew gives. We do a lot of work with Gallagher electric fencing gear, and Chris came out and spent time with us, and he was fantastic. So that's why we did what we did."

/**
 * WindowActor class collects input events and saves them until a certain
 * number of events has been reached or a certain time has passed.
 *
 * The parameters to set are the following:
 *   method = "count" / "time"
 *            for instance: "count"
 *   number = how many events / how many milliseconds
 *            for instance: 10 / 10000
 *   sliding = how many events / how many milliseconds slides each time
 *            if not given, no sliding window is used
 *            for instance: 2 / 2000
 *
 * 1) ("count", 10, 2) would mean that the actor emits 10 events at a time, but the two oldest are deleted
 * and the two newest are added. This means the list has an overlap of items with the previous list.
 * 2) ("count", 10, 10) would mean that the actor emits a list of JSON objects after 10 incoming events,
 * and the list is unique every time. This means that the list has no overlap with the previous one,
 * unless duplicate events come in.
 * 3) ("time", 10000, 10000) would mean that the actor emits all events it has collected in the 10 past seconds
 * and then resets. This means that the list has no overlap with the previous one, unless duplicate events
 * come in.
 * 4) ("time", 10000, 2000), would mean that the actor emits all events it has collected in the last 10 seconds
 * and every 2 seconds the window slides forward. This means that the events in the 8 seconds that
 * overlap are duplicated.
 *
 * Example:
 * order: (latest) 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 (earliest)
 * event:           L  K  J I H G F E D C B A
 *
 * 1) The actor waits until it has 10 events, and then emits (A B C D E G H I J K).
 * After two new events come in, it emits (C D E F G H I J K L) and then (E F G H I J K L . .).
 * 2) It first emits (A B C D E F G H I J) and then emits (K L . . . . . . . .)
 * 3) Depending on when the events come in, it emits all events collected in the last 10 seconds
 * and then waits 10 seconds before collecting again, so there is no overlap.
 * 4) It emits all events collected in the last 10 seconds, but does this again every 2 seconds.
 *
 * If the number of required events are not collected during the lifetime of this actor, nothing
 * will ever be emitted, it will simply wait forever.

Jerome Young (born January 3, 1963) is an American semi-retired professional wrestler, better known by his stage name New Jack. He is best known for his time with Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW), where he became notorious for his willingness to take dangerous bumps and his stiff hardcore wrestling style, often taking high risks and "shooting" on opponents. He is also known for having his theme song ("Natural Born Killaz" by Ice Cube and Dr. Dre) play throughout his matches in ECW.

Professional wrestling careerEdit
United States Wrestling Association (1992–1993)Edit
Young trained under Ray Candy and debuted in 1992 in the Memphis, Tennessee-based United States Wrestling Association (USWA), where he adopted the name New Jack, inspired by the movie New Jack City. In June 1993, he won his first championship, the USWA World Tag Team Championship with his partner Homeboy, defeating Simply Devine for the titles. They would hold onto the titles for two weeks before losing them to C.W. Bergstrom and Melvin Penrod, Jr. He would remain with the company until the end of the summer.[citation needed]
North Georgia Wrestling Alliance (1993–1994)Edit
After leaving Memphis, Young, returned to Atlanta and wrestled for North Georgia Wrestling Alliance, and won their Heavyweight Championship. In early 1994, he paired up with former WCW enhancement talent Mustafa Saed and formed The Gangstas, and won NGWA Tag Team Championship in July 1994, but quickly vacated them, as they left the territory.[citation needed]
Smoky Mountain Wrestling (1994–1995)Edit
In July 1994, The Gangstas went to Knoxville and began working for Jim Cornette in Smoky Mountain Wrestling. The Gangstas took part in several controversial angles, on one occasion using affirmative action to enable them to win matches with a two count pinfall as opposed to the conventional three count. They engaged in a long feud with the Rock 'N Roll Express (Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson). During their stint, the NAACP would picket outside the performance venues because of the "Gangsta" gimmick, claiming that no racial violence had occurred in the Tennessee area for years, and they did not want the reputation of gangsters to be put into the Tennessee area. After the feud with the Rock 'n' Roll Express ended, they feuded with The Thugs (Tracy Smothers and Tony Anthony) and with USWA's PG-13 until they left the company in June 1995.[citation needed]
Extreme Championship WrestlingEdit
The Gangstas (1995–1997)Edit
Main article: The Gangstas
New Jack at an ECW event in 1998
In June 1995, The Gangstas joined the Philadelphia-based Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) promotion, debuting for the promotion as a villainous team by attacking The Public Enemy (Rocco Rock and Johnny Grunge) at Barbed Wire, Hoodies and Chokeslams on June 17, 1995.[2] Gangstas made their ECW in-ring debut at Hardcore Heaven by competing against Public Enemy in a losing effort.[3] The two teams engaged in a lengthy rivalry and traded wins against each other throughout the year, with the feud ending in a street fight at House Party, which Public Enemy won. Public Enemy departed ECW after the event, thus ending the rivalry.[4] At CyberSlam Gangstas were scheduled to compete in a match against The Headhunters but Jack was imprisoned in Atlanta and Mustafa was attacked by Headhunters.[5] Jack returned to ECW on March 8 during the Big Ass Extreme tour to rescue Mustafa from an assault by The Headhunters, resulting in Gangstas turning into fan favourites.[6]
Gangstas began pursuing the ECW World Tag Team Championship and entered into a rivalry with the tag team champions The Eliminators (John Kronus and Perry Saturn) and received several title shots against Eliminators but came up short. At Fight the Power, Samoan Gangstas Party (L.A. Smooth and Sammy the Silk) made their ECW debut by attacking Gangstas. Samoan Gangsta Party cost Gangstas, another title shot against Eliminators at Hardcore Heaven.[7] Gangstas then faced Samoan Gangstas Party in a match at Heat Wave which ended in a brawl between both teams.[8] Gangstas' feud with Eliminators, Samoan Gangsta Party and The Bruise Brothers led to a four-way dance between the four teams at The Doctor is In, which Gangstas won to capture their first World Tag Team Championship.[9] Gangstas successfully defended the title against teams such as Samoan Gangsta Party, The Eliminators and Rob Van Dam and Sabu throughout the year.[10][11]
New Jack was involved in the Mass Transit Incident on November 23, 1996 in Revere, Massachusetts.[12][13][14] The Gangstas were scheduled to face D-Von Dudley and Axl Rotten. Axl, however, never made it to the show for reasons never made clear. (In the 2005 documentary Forever Hardcore, New Jack said he thinks something happened with Axl's grandmother, which forced Axl to not make it). Rotten was replaced with "Mass Transit" Eric Kulas, an untrained seventeen-year-old who convinced booker Paul Heyman that he was twenty-three and had been trained by the veteran Killer Kowalski. Kulas requested that New Jack "blade" him during the match, but the incision was made incorrectly, causing excessive bleeding. Kulas was hospitalized as a result, eventually receiving fifty stitches. New Jack was charged with aggravated assault stemming from the incident, but was acquitted. Kulas subsequently sued New Jack and ECW for damages in July 1998, but lost the case. Kulas died on May 12, 2002 at the age of 22 due to complications from gastric bypass surgery. Later, Kulas' parents tried to sue New Jack because they believed their son's death was caused due to depression and a major eating disorder after what New Jack did to him.[citation needed]
Gangstas lost the World Tag Team Championship back to Eliminators on the January 4, 1997 episode of Hardcore TV, ending their reign at 139 days.[15] Gangstas feuded with Eliminators and The Dudley Boyz over the titles for the next several months. At Heat Wave, Gangstas defeated Dudley Boyz in a steel cage match to capture their second World Tag Team Championship.[16] Mustafa Saed left ECW after the title win, leading to the dissolution of Gangstas. The following month, at Hardcore Heaven, Dudley Boyz were returned the titles via forfeit due to Saed's departure.[17]
The Gangstanators (1997–1998)Edit
Main article: The Gangstanators
The departure of Mustafa Saed and Perry Saturn from ECW led New Jack to form a new tag team with former Eliminator John Kronus called The Gangstanators on August 21, 1997 by defeating The Dudley Boyz. The team debuted on television on the September 20 episode of Hardcore TV when Kronus earned a title shot at the ECW World Tag Team Championship by defeating the Dudleys and then Jack showed up as his tag team partner. They received their title shot at As Good as it Gets, where Gangstanators defeated Dudley Boyz to win the World Tag Team Championship, marking Jack's third tag title reign.[18] They lost the titles to The Full Blooded Italians (Little Guido and Tracy Smothers) on the November 1 episode of Hardcore TV. They defeated Hardcore Chair Swingin' Freaks (Axl Rotten and Balls Mahoney) and Dudley Boyz in a three-way dance at Fright Fight and received a rematch for the titles against FBI, the Freaks and Dudleys in a four-way dance at November to Remember but failed to win the titles.[19][20]
Gangstanators resumed their feud with Dudley Boyz as the two teams competed in a match at the 1998 House Party, which Dudleys won.[21] Gangstanators formed an alliance with Spike Dudley, an arch rival of the Dudleys. At the Living Dangerously pay-per-view, New Jack and Spike Dudley defeated Hardcore Chair Swingin' Freaks and Dudley Boyz in a three-way dance.[22] Jack would then face Bam Bam Bigelow in a losing effort at Wrestlepalooza.[23] Jack began emerging as a singles competitor while feuding with Dudley Boyz. This led to Jack and Kronus quietly dissolving Gangstanators and going their separate ways as Jack more frequently teamed with Spike Dudley to feud with Dudley Boyz. New Jack began dragging in a garbage can full of weapons and throwing it into the ring as a sort of ultra-violent trash bag.[citation needed]
Singles competition (1999–2001)Edit
New Jack's feud with Dudley Boyz continued in 1999 as he teamed with Spike Dudley to compete against Dudley Boyz in a losing effort at Guilty as Charged.[24] At Crossing the Line, Jack brought out his former Gangstas tag team partner Mustafa Saed to compete against Dudley Boyz but Mustafa turned on Jack by smashing a guitar on his head and revealed himself to be the mysterious benefactor of Dudleys, who wanted to run out The Public Enemy and New Jack out of ECW.[25] As a result, Jack began a rivalry with Mustafa, which culminated in a match between the two at Living Dangerously, which Jack won.[26] At CyberSlam, Jack teamed with Hardcore Chair Swingin' Freaks (Axl Rotten and Balls Mahoney) against Mustafa and Dudley Boyz in an Ultimate Jeopardy match in a losing effort. After the match, Jack drove Mustafa through a table with a diving splash from the top of the cage.[27] Jack was out of action for the next few months until he returned to ECW at Heat Wave, where he attacked Dudley Boyz with weapons from a shopping cart.[citation needed]
On the October 22 episode of ECW on TNN, Jack received his first opportunity for the World Heavyweight Championship against Mike Awesome but failed to win the title.[28] On the November 5 episode of ECW on TNN, Jack rescued Hardcore Chair Swingin' Freaks from an attack by Da Baldies (The Spanish Angel, Vito LoGrasso, Tony DeVito and Vic Grimes) but Angel stapled Jack in the eyes.[29] This led to a lengthy rivalry between Jack and Angel over the unofficial title of "King of the Streets". The two battled back and forth over the matter in bloody street fights. One of ECW television's most gruesome moments was when in the course of a match, Angel used New Jack's staple gun (which he often wore around his neck with a chain) against him, stapling him in the eye. Referees called off the match, and New Jack disappeared from the air for many months. New Jack returned by the end of 1999 with his eye seemingly recovered, now sporting a scythe around his neck, claiming that he had "upgraded" the staple gun.[citation needed]
Their first encounter was at November to Remember, where Jack and the Freaks lost to Da Baldies in a handicap match.[30] At the 2000 Guilty as Charged pay-per-view, Jack lost a singles match to Angel due to interference by Da Baldies.[31] At the Living Dangerously pay-per-view on March 12, New Jack suffered legitimate brain damage and was permanently blinded in his right eye when he and his opponent, Vic Grimes, fell around 15 feet off a scaffold, missed the tables that were supposed to absorb the force of their fall and landed on the concrete floor, with Grimes landing on New Jack's head.[32] Jack defeated Da Baldies leader Angel in a match at Hardcore Heaven.[33]
Jack suffered a broken leg in mid-2000. He appeared at Heat Wave where he appeared on crutches and Angel stapled him with his staple gun in the forehead until Nova and Chris Chetti made the save and defeated Da Baldies in a tag team match.[34] Jack was out of action for the next few months. He returned to ECW on the September 22 episode of ECW on TNN, where he rescued Spike Dudley from an assault by Justin Credible and Rhino but was double teamed by the two.[35] Jack was named the number one contender for Rhino's World Television Championship at November to Remember, where he failed to win the title.[36][37] In his last ECW match, Jack defeated longtime rival Angel on the December 17 episode of Hardcore TV. Jack remained with the promotion which was closed due to bankruptcy a month later in January 2001.
XPW and the independent circuit (2001–2012)Edit
After ECW declared bankruptcy in April 2001, New Jack began wrestling on the independent circuit. In 2001 and 2002, he wrestled for XPW, and in 2003, he made multiple appearances with Total Nonstop Action Wrestling and also Combat Zone Wrestling, competing in Cage of Death V.[citation needed] New Jack appeared at the ECW reunion show, Hardcore Homecoming, on June 10, 2005, as well as competing on the "Extreme Reunion" tour from September 15–16.[citation needed]
In April 2003, New Jack was in a memorable hardcore match with longtime wrestler Gypsy Joe. Joe was continuously no-selling New Jack. New Jack also states on a shoot interview that Joe headbutted him in the nose. This caused New Jack to legitimately attack the sexagenarian with a chain, a framed picture of his aunt, a baseball bat wrapped in barbed wire, and several other weapons. Before the match Jack met Gypsy Joe and went to the booker of the show and asked exactly what he was supposed to do with Joe. Jack was told "Gypsy Joe is as tough as leather", and Jack replied that he was not going to lose dollar value from this match and will not have either a comedy, or a gimmick match, and told the booker he will kill Gypsy Joe in this hardcore match.[38]
In October 2004, New Jack, wrestling for Thunder Wrestling Federation, was scheduled to fight fellow wrestler William Jason Lane. During the match, New Jack pulled out a metal blade from his camouflage wrestling attire, and stabbed Lane 14 times; This action caused New Jack to receive various felony charges, including for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, and aggravated assault to commit murder.[39] New Jack claims that the two met prior to the match and agreed to use a "piece of metal" to inflict injury. Despite this, a police officer who was recording the incident stated that it looked like it went "past a routine wrestling match." The promoter of the event, Mr. Maurice Williams, claims the event was never intended to be hardcore. New Jack has claimed that he only stabbed Lane nine times. New Jack announced his retirement on XPW's A Cold Day To Hell in 2008 though he continued working independent shows.[40] In 2012, New Jack competed for Extreme Rising and CZW.[citation needed]
Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (2003, 2004, 2010)Edit
During 2003 and 2004 New Jack wrestled occasional events for TNA wrestling.
On August 8, 2010, New Jack appeared at TNA's ECW reunion show, Hardcore Justice, where he and Mustafa assaulted Team 3D and Joel Gertner after a match.[41]
RetirementEdit
On April 5, 2013 at Pro Wrestling Syndicate's Super Card 2013 Night 2, New Jack defeated Necro Butcher in his official retirement match. Following the match New Jack and Necro Butcher embraced passionately & performed his theme song & celebrated with Marty Jannetty & Ricky Morton.[citation needed]
Return to professional wrestling (2016-present)Edit
New Jack has been wrestling for Money Mark Productions and most recently wrestled Brad Cash in Lewisberg, Tennessee on April 16, 2016. On June 11, 2016, New Jack was set to face former UFC star Phil Baroni in an unsanctioned match at a Pro Wrestling Syndicate event at Starland Ballroom in Sayreville, New Jersey. In October, New Jack appeared at the Crushed 2 wrestling event in Minneapolis, MN interfering in a match between Eugene and Tommy Lee Curtis. He ran out with the garbage can full of weapons and saved Eugene from a beat down and ended up doing a diving splash through a table to pin Tommy Lee Curtis even though he was only interfering. It was billed as his last appearance in the Midwest. In January, Jack was eliminated in battle royal by White Mike but went on to defeat Mike in a singles match. In March, he teamed with fellow ECW Alumni The Sandman & Justin Credible in a winning effort at an ECW show.
Other mediaEdit
In the video game ECW Anarchy Rulz, New Jack's theme song was rerecorded by Bootsy Collins with unique lyrics, unlike every other character's theme, which consisted of cover versions of their real themes. The real theme ("Natural Born Killaz") could not be featured; copyright issues from their record labels wouldn't allow it. New Jack was featured in the 1999 wrestling documentary Beyond the Mat. In addition, he appeared in the television series Early Edition on May 6, 2000 as a biker in the episode "Mel Schwartz, Bounty Hunter". He was also featured in the video game Backyard Wrestling 2: There Goes the Neighborhood.[citation needed]
New Jack is referenced in the 1996 Weezer single "El Scorcho". The line "watchin' Grunge legdrop New Jack through a press table" was derived from a caption for a photograph of New Jack fighting wrestler Johnny Grunge that was published in Pro Wrestling Illustrated.[citation needed]
New Jack took part in a shoot interview with The Iron Sheik and The Honky Tonk Man where the subject was Chris Benoit's murder-suicide. New Jack commented that nothing could excuse what Benoit had done and all people on WWE and elsewhere who were making excuses for him were hypocrites. He also thought it was ironic how Extreme Championship Wrestling was seen as violent and dangerous wrestling when he was working there and still only one person died under New Jack's time with the company, whereas WWE was "averaging three a year."[42]
New Jack recently made his hip hop recording debut. He contributed several verses to indie rapper Duckman's new album Duckman for Presidente. An animated commercial for the album featuring a cartoon version of New Jack was recently released. New Jack's voice is featured in the commercial and he tells listeners to "buy the cd or I'll stab your ass".[citation needed]
New Jack has participated in several shoot interviews for RF Video and Kayfabe Commentaries. He was also interviewed by Pro Wrestling Insider for a two-disc DVD set in which he covered his entire career.[citation needed]
New Jack, along with indy wrestler Jay Lover, made an appearance on The Daily Show, on the May 9, 2013 episode of the show, in a segment entitled "Stay Out Of School".[43] It was later confirmed that this was a one-time appearance.[44]

We created a gorgeous clean boat neck base dress for Crystal ala Audrey Hepburn. For the akad nikah ceremony, we added on a long sleeved lace topper and voila! Two looks in one! She later removed the topper and headscarf for evening reception.

Q: Отправка данных с сервера на телефон Доброго времени суток. Думал я, думал... И так и не придумал. Как можно реализовать передачу данных с сервера на телефон? К примеру, во вконтакте в мобильном приложении, когда приходит сообщение пользователю - только в этот момент идёт оповещение, причём мгновенно.

A: Это делается через поддержание постоянного соединения телефона с сервером посредством сокетов.
Обычно не делают свою реализацию, т.к. девайсы, уходя в сон, прибивают все процессы, жрущие трафик, батарею etc. Вместо этого берут гугловое решение - Firebase Cloud Messaging. Оно работает так - гугловые сервисы (программа, вшитая почти в 100% андроид девайсов) держат постоянное соединение с серверами гугла. Система это соединение не прибивает, т.к. гугл это своё приложение наделяет особенным приоритетом, недоступным для приложений не от гугла.
Далее вы шлёте со своего сервера ID девайса и сообщение ему на сервер гугла, а тот перенаправляет его на устройство.

Brian "Head" Welch on Living With Depression, Addiction, and Self-Hatred
In the latest episode of Going There, Dr. Mike speaks to the Love and Death artist and Korn guitarist about how embracing spirituality led to a path of recovery
Going There with Brian "Head" Welch

Presented by Consequence of Sound and Sound Mind Live, Going There with Dr. Mike is a new interview podcast series in which clinical psychologist and life coach Dr. Mike Friedman talks with musicians about the crossroads where music and mental health meet.
Brian "Head" Welch joins the show this week to discuss his struggle with mental illness. The Korn guitarist shares how a history of bullying resulted in extreme self-hatred and isolation that stayed with him throughout much of his early life. As time went on, this self-hatred contributed to an ongoing struggle with depression, which he describes as a "darkness."
The Love and Death founding member also explains that, as a child, music was one of the only things that brought him joy, and how his commitment to play music brought him to Los Angeles, where he eventually joined Korn. As the band found success as the pioneers and champions of nu metal, Welch had developed a habit of using crystal meth.
Welch explains the vicious cycle of using crystal meth and how withdrawal brought a depressive state even worse than his depression. Welch describes how he connected to a sense of spirituality as part of his recovery, which he continues to explore and express on Love and Death's new album, Perfectly Preserved.

The development of a ceramic applique for the vibration suppression of a cryocooler coldfinger is a part of technology demonstration flight experiment. Three sectors of a piezoelectric PZT bonded to the coldfinger are used as actuators to control the motion of the tip. A technique for bonding the PZT material to the coldfinger was developed that minimizes tensile stresses in the ceramic during operation. Extensive development testing has been performed to verify the efficiency of the adhesive and the coldfinger performance at cryogenic temperatures. The problems encountered during the fabrication and assembly of the coldfinger are described. Results of tests are summarized.

Nice Island and lovely location. Nice host.
Thank you for your response. We had a very pleasant stay at Genni Apartment 3. We particulalry enjoyed the food at Votsalo Taverna, which is just a minutes walk from the Genni Apartments.
Thank you for your email, we all had the most wonderful holiday in Genni apartments on Zakynthos.
The location was amazing, the apartments spotlessly clean and comfortable. Genni and her husband were always on hand if we needed them and they were both very welcoming and friendly. The lady who cleaned and changed the bed linen was also lovely - we were all very impressed with how well we were looked after.
We were very sad to leave, we are missing the fantastic views and lovely sunshine. However, we are all very well rested and feel we have had a proper holiday, so thank you all for that! The whole process from booking to arriving has been smooth and easy - you have kept us informed and up to date at all times. We won't hesitate to recommend you to friends and family, and certainly if we decide to come to Greece again we will come to you first.
Thank you all very much again for great service and a brilliant holiday.


Cameron lay there slightly propped up so his eyes could meet mine. His eyes had taken on one of peace, like he was ready to leave now. His beside him looked torn between him and me not knowing where to go or look.
''Can you guys leave again?'', Cameron asked as his mom slightly squeezed his hand and walked past me straining a smile. Johnny followed her lightly unconsciously letting his hand breeze along my back before he left.
I walked over and sat beside Cameron on the bed forgetting the formalities.
''I just don't know Cameron. Every time I think about giving up the baby I feel sick but when I think of keeping it I feel worse'', I whispered to him.
''Kira, I was only thinking of myself, I can understand your apprehension. Your only 16 now, I'm at the end of my life already, older than you but nonetheless at the end'', He said lightly reaching for my hand. I noticed he constantly had someone on hand I must have been a comfort to him.
''I have a plan for you'', He said grasping my hand tighter.
''I want you and Johnny to leave this place. I have friends in Texas you can go to for a while, they are a little too friendly sometimes but they are sweet as pie'', he said with a smile.
''You can clear out my University fund and leave. Give a life together a chance'', He whispered.
I didn't know what to say Cameron was asking me to run away and take his baby and best friend with me. What about my family? What would they do...Police?
''Cameron'', I said pained and he understood his smile slightly faltered.
''I know it's crazy but you could have a whole new life. Think about what your parents are going to say when they find out your pregnant. What Morganna would say..'', Cameron Said.
It was true and that's what was making it harder. I would have to leave soon, but I don't want this baby. The thoughts of it crying all the time, I don't even have any money. But then I am handing away half to Cameron to strangers. The half of Cameron growing inside me.
''This is fucked up you realize that don't you'', I said to Cameron and he just laughed.
''We are all a little crazy around here'', He smiled.
''Look Kira'', he began ''I just don't want to leave and know you're going to face ridicule and pain because of me. I want you to leave as soon as Johnny agrees and then, find a family for the baby'', He said finally understanding my reasoning.
''That actually sounds like a good idea'', I laughed and so did Cameron the tears still slightly playing around.
We sat in silence for a few minutes I had lay down beside Cameron wanting to keep him company but there was part of me that wanted to be here with him... the side of me that loved this side of him. He played with my hair lightly and I listened to his shallow breaths and the light flutter of his heart.
''Will you cry?'', He asked slightly smiling.
''Cameron that's the stupidest question you ever asked'', I said offended.
''I will cry until I'm admitted to hospital for dehydration, I will miss you more than 'a fat kid misses food' and if you go a part of me will go with you because a part of you is me now'', I said and his eyes glittered with tears.
''You'll never know how much I love you'', He said kissing me lightly on the forehead, his dry lips grazing my soft skin.
I stroked his bony face gently. He closed his eyes to my touch and he smiled.
''Baby name's'', He whispered bringing it up again. I wanted to give him this time.
''Girl, Eleanor Winter, and for a Boy, Caolan Edward'', He said eyes still closed but a smile on his face.
''They are beautiful names'', I said as I felt tiredness wash over me. I had heard Johnny and Cameron's mom walk in every few minutes but I decided to I've decided to give Cameron my full attention.
''I love you Kira'', Cameron said as I could feel the sleep washing over me.
''I love you too'', I whispered through the fog.
''don't forget me Kira, Please. I know I've done you wrong many times before and I have apologized but please forgive me. Take care of the baby for me and tell it about me. Tell it I loved it'', I could hear Cameron say. He sounded more alive than ever before. Maybe miracles could happen.
''Kira'', someone shouted as loud beeping filled my ears and I was ripped from beside Cameron.
I was still asleep and as I opened my eyes it seemed as though Cameron was too as the Beeping got louder and more frequent and people rushed into the room and other rushed me out. I felt like death had kept me company for a while now.


Keep in mind that Sec. 179 expensing and bonus depreciation can also be used for business vehicles. So purchasing vehicles before year-end could reduce your 2018 tax liability. But, depending on the type of vehicle, additional limits may apply.
Investing in business assets is a traditional and powerful year-end tax planning strategy, and it might make even more sense in 2018 because of the TCJA enhancements to Sec. 179 expensing and bonus depreciation.

Who are the members of The Justice League?
Alon Fisher
dc, DC comics, justice league, superheroes
GIQUE out with us and share.
The next few years are make or break for DC Comics and the members of The Justice League may hold all of the weight on their shoulders.
It is widely agreed that Marvel have won their own superhero battle with their arch nemesis over the past few years. But DC have movie plans that could shift the balance of power back in their favour. Here is the rundown on seven exciting DC movies that will be gracing our screens over the next few years.
The Flash. Source: DC Comics
Stars: Ezra Miller
Writer: Phil Lord and Chris Miller
Director: Rick Famuyiwa
'The Flash' has an intriguing opportunity for DC to have a little fun in their films, perhaps in a similar way to Grant Gustin's character in the current televised series. The biggest indicator that DC is going to invest a more comedic tone into their upcoming project is the hiring of the men Phil Lord and Chris Miller, the duo behind 'The Lego Movie' and '21 Jump Street', which both had incredible runs of success.
Wonder Woman. Source: DC Comics
Stars: Gal Gadot
Writer: Jason Fuchs
Released: 23 June 2017
Suicide Squad 2 May Feature a Character Presumed Dead
Why the Crisis On Earth-X Crossover Dominated Justice League
What We Can Learn From DC's Depictions Of Mental Illness
'Wonder Woman' represents a prospect for DC to show they are aware of the diversity of their fan base and that they know how to represent one of the most iconic female characters of all time. Their decision to sign female director Patty Jenkins seems to suggest that DC and Warner Bros. are listening closely to their fans.
But what can we expect out of this film? Well, it is the release before 'Justice League Part One', which might suggest that it stages the events for the following film. Or, there is a possibility that it could be an origin story, as reports confirm Chris Pine will feature as character Steve Trevor (the primary love interest of Wonder Woman). Whatever the story may be, 'Wonder Woman' has a lot riding on its plate, holding the chance to prove that female-driven movies can be just as or even more successful than male-driven films.
Khal Drogo's going swimming. Source: DC Comics
Stars: Jason Momoa
Writer: Kurt Johnstad
I can tell you now that you won't be seeing the florescent skin-tight orange shirt and revealing green tights on DC's new 'Aquaman'. Instead, to accompany Cavil's stern superman and Affleck's disturbed Batman, DC are going out on the limb and making Aquaman a serious and grim film. This is most prominently exhibited by the casting of Jason Momoa, more commonly known as Khal Drogo, the fearless giant warrior from Game of Thrones. The Atlantean will be taking orders from Australian Horror veteran James Wan, who is set to direct after great success from his 'Furious 7' film. So far, intel on supporting cast and crew has been slim, but what is clear is that Aquaman is rapidly moving away from being a running joke to one of DC's most promising films.
Shazam. Source: DC Comics
Stars: Dwayne Johnson
Writer: Bill Burr
Released: 5 April 2019
For those of you who are unfamiliar with Shazam, it follows the story of Billy Batson – a man who with one simple word can transform into a superhero, striving to keep the world safe from arch nemesis Black Adam. Although very little information has been released on casting, we can confirm that Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson will be playing the leading role of super villain Black Adam, after turning down his offered role as Shazam. Formerly known as Captain Marvel.
Shazam has powers ranging from super strength and flight to various forms of magic. This film has a lot of promising potential, making us very curious to know more about the rest of the cast, crew and plot.

Everything We Know About The CW's Titans
As you can see, other than its release date, there is little known about the next installment of 'Green Lantern'. My main hope is that it'll be better than the 2011 eyesore. That being said, 'Green Lantern Corps' would have to actually try to produce the world's worst superhero movie to be on par with its predecessor. The fact that they have decided to add "Corps" into the title suggests that they are going to focus on several green lanterns as opposed to a single Ryan Reynolds, hopefully bringing in a range of impressive characters.
Cyborg. Source: DC Comics
Stars: Ray Fisher
Director tbc
It seems as though both Marvel and DC are playing the same game, in that both announced in the same week that they will be releasing a superhero movie not led by a white man. Marvel's comes first in 2018 with 'Black Panther', followed by DC's 2020 outing 'Cyborg', played by American stage actor and somewhat rookie to the big screen, Ray Fisher. 'Cyborg' tells the story of Victor Stone (Fisher) whose body parts are replaced by advanced prosthetics after injuries from an accidental explosion at S.T.A.R laboratories. This enables him powerful bionic abilities that lead him towards becoming a profound member of the Justice League.
Justice League. Source: DC Comics
Stars: Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck, Gal Gadot, Ezra Miller, Jason Mamoa, Ray Fisher
Writer: Chris Terrio
Director: Zack Synder
DC Comics have been teaming up with Warner Bros. since 2013 to release 'Man of Steel' and 'Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice', with an ultimate goal of making a 'Justice League' film – or should I say films, with a sequel already planned. My opinion on the overall story of the film goes two ways.
Either we will see the Justice team form throughout part 1 (as usual), and part 2 will follow up with a the team dealing with a new threat with some elements mentioned in part 1. Or, Warner Bros. may want to step it up a notch and create a threat of epic proportion that will take the League two movies to achieve victory, in a more ambitious superhero tale. Either way, it's a risky move on behalf of DC, taking on the already pre-established Avengers franchise from Marvel. But we will remain optimistic and have our fingers crossed it will all turn out well!

Ooops *blush* clank. zzzzzzzzzzzzzip. Better?
Thank you my friend. So you know, we knocked on 5500+ doors today in Hazlet, NJ. That brings the total after 7 weeks to over 18,000.
By the time we're done we will have knocked on over 100,000 doors in our district. We're bringing old school campaigning back with a freakin' vengeance here in the swamp.
But in the immortal words of John Paul Jones…we have not yet begun to fight.
You rock the link love like nobody's business. Well done!
O Master of Rule 1, thanks a bajillionty for the link-back and the u-haul shout-out. I really really appreciate it. Happy Labor Day. "Honorary Android"?…lemme give that a think.

Did Mariah Carey almost get voted off "American Idol"?
According to report from The Hollywood Reporter, "Idol" execs were considering replacing the singing sensation with veteran judge Jennifer Lopez mid-season in an attempt to boost ratings. But the plan fell apart when Carey's team threatened to take legal action against the show, "knowledgeable sources" told THR.
A rep for Fox denied the report, told FOX 411: "This is just another ridiculous 'Idol' judge rumor, likely started by talks of Jennifer performing on the finale."
Carey's rep also contested the report, as did "Idol" producer Nigel Lythgoe.
"I have not been included in any conversation regarding replacing Mariah with Jen this season," Lythgoe told The Hollywood Reporter.
And while it seems the rumors may not have much merit, that doesn't mean fans of the show wouldn't be happy to welcome Lopez back to the judging panel.
Lopez fit well on the panel when she judged alongside Steven Tyler and Randy Jackson.
This season's judges haven't meshed quite as well. Carey and rapper Nicki Minaj have clashed several times on the series, most recently last week when Minaj called Carey "sir" while the two were bickering.
Original "Idol" judge Randy Jackson still sits on the panel along with country star Keith Urban, who is awkwardly positioned between Minaj and Carey.
There has been no word yet on which judges, if any, will return to the show for another season.

When Nick Mason (during the press launch of the Rome staging of The Pink Floyd Exhibition: Their Mortal Remains) made comments in Italy about heading out to small venues, to play early Pink Floyd songs, few took the remarks seriously. As unlikely as it seemed, Nick was entirely truthful and in the initial announcement a set of four shows in London were announced for his new band. Due to the critical success of those shows in May 2018, held in small venues in Camden and Putney, a full European tour was announced for September. The expanded shows for the full tour were even more highly acclaimed, and it came as no surprise when further dates for 2019 were announced!
Nick Mason's Saucerful Of Secrets brings together some familiar names, all great musicians: joining Nick are Gary Kemp and Lee Harris on guitars, Guy Pratt on bass, and Dom Beken on keyboards. Kemp is best known for his work with Spandau Ballet, Harris as having played guitar with The Blockheads (Ian Dury's band), Pratt needs no introduction, and Beken is principally known for his work with The Orb, and Transit Kings (with Pratt). The band will be playing early Pink Floyd songs.
This is a unique opportunity to experience Pink Floyd's celebrated and significant early body of work played live including songs from albums 'The Piper At The Gates of Dawn' and 'A Saucerful Of Secrets'.
The regular sale of tickets started on MONDAY, NOVEMBER 5th at 10am (local time), via Ticketmaster. Please support Brain Damage by purchasing your tickets using this link - thanks, we really appreciate it!
MAIN SET: Interstellar Overdrive, Astronomy Domine, Lucifer Sam, Fearless, Obscured By Clouds, When You're In, Remember A Day, Arnold Layne, Vegetable Man, If/Atom Heart Mother/If Reprise, The Nile Song, Green Is The Colour, Let There Be More Light, Childhood's End, Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun, See Emily Play, Bike, One Of These Days.
ENCORE: A Saucerful Of Secrets, Point Me At The Sky.
Do not read on if you don't want surprises to be spoilt, regarding what the band played!
Well, that went fast! The final show of the US/Canadian tour, and matters concluded as they started, with another great performance by the band, who have certainly surpassed expectations for most of the fans attending the 2019 tour. When we said you'd have a great time, we're pleased that you've totally agreed, and then some!
The time has now come for the band, crew and equipment to pack, and head back over to the UK for a string of shows next week...
We'd love to know from those attending how they felt the concert went. How was the show for you, if you were one of the fortunate ones to attend? Let us know what YOU thought!
CONCERT REVIEW by BD CONTRIBUTOR, Bill Dorn
Nick Mason's SOS tour concluded its US leg last night in Washington DC at the DAR Constitution Hall, a wonderful concert hall.
Nick and his bandmates did an astounding tribute to the early days of Pink Floyd and Syd. After the opening act, the band took the stage at 8:30pm. The opening numbers, Interstellar Overdrive and Astronomy Domine, were spot on. Vegetable Man, certainly new to me, was beautiful. The Nile Song is almost grunge-like; super. Set the Controls was out of this world, no pun intended.
One Of These Days just brought the house down, better than the original. Encores Saucerful of Secrets and Point me at the Sky brought the evening to an amazing end. Nick was very active on the drums, much more so than Roger let him. The guitar work by Gary and Lee was impeccable. Guy Pratt really enjoyed himself. Dom was great on the keyboards. Nick was most gracious.
A huge thanks to Nick and his bandmates for bringing to we fans a reminder of what Syd and Pink Floyd were all about. Hearing many of the songs not played by Roger or Dave was an amazing experience. Thank you Nick Mason!!
CONCERT REVIEW by BD CONTRIBUTOR, Stu Thor
Monday night I had the pleasure and thrill of seeing Nick and his band perform at DAR Constitution Hall in DC. They were amazing, such great energy and excitement from the band, you could really tell they were enjoying it and having fun! Nick was quick and strong on those drums!!!
Nick made several remarks thru the show that got some really great laughs from the audience. First he told the story of how Arnold Layne was banned by the BBC and he decided that we were old enough now to hear the song. Then later during the setup for Set the Controls, he commented that Roger never let him play the gong and that it was finally his turn. Guy Pratt referred to a conversation with David that he wanted to play The Nile Song with David when he was on tour for On An Island, apparently David told him he could go play in a different band if he wanted to do that, "so I did" he said!
The music was fantastic, the sound, clear. The playing of the songs were true to their original form and it was wonderful to hear so much older stuff, especially from OBC, Fearless, and Vegetable Man was incredible. Not a bad rendition of anything. The opening sound effects as has been mentioned previously were similar to TDB tour, of note I did hear some of the comms chatter from the successful failure that was NASA's Apollo 13 mission.
If you can, go see these guys!!!! Hopefully they will come around again!
YOUR HELP NEEDED! We want to cover Nick's concerts the best we can, to share the experience with everyone, especially those who won't be able to attend the shows. We'd love to see ANY pictures, tickets scans, reviews, newspaper reports, and anything else you come across for this show - we look forward to hearing from you!

El lledoner de l'Estació (Celtis australis) és un arbre que es troba al municipi de Rajadell (el Bages).

Dades descriptives
 Perímetre del tronc 1 a 1,30 m: 3,28 m.
 Perímetre del tronc 2 a 1,30 m: 2,74 m.
 Perímetre de la base del tronc: 5,40 m.
 Alçada: 19,52 m.
 Amplada de la capçada: 22 m.
 Altitud sobre el nivell del mar: 368 m.

Entorn
És a l'estació de Rajadell. Al costat hi ha la serra de Castelltallat. Dins de l'arbre hi ha una petita colònia de dragons de tonalitats molt fosques.

Aspecte general
Tot i no gaudir de dimensions espectaculars, es tracta d'un lledoner realment estètic i acollidor, el qual ha fruït de l'avantatge de tindre un poble que l'ha cuidat des de fa anys i l'ha convertit en un emblema. Té un escocell de magnífica envergadura a peu de soca, que té una important aportació de matèria orgànica, així com un conjunt de ginebres de jardí que actuen de protectors del seu propi cancell, de les trepitjades compactadores i dels possibles grafismes dels visitants. Presenta alguna fulla amb la típica clorosi del lledoner, però de presència eventual i poc remarcable. Té alguna secció de dimensions considerables, però no sembla afectat per cap mena de barrinador o càries de la fusta. Les branques més grans i pesades de l'arbre estan unides per tensors adequats, segurament instal·lats per algun arboricultor professional.

Curiositats
Per respectar l'arbre, fa molts anys es va instal·lar un semàfor per tal de facilitar la circulació en el pas estret de la carretera a causa del lledoner i se li van realitzar podes periòdiques, ja que la capçada, quan creixia, arribava a la catenària d'una via de tren. Les ventades del cicló extratropical Klaus van esqueixar-lo i va caldre reduir la capçada dràsticament.

Accés
Cal dirigir-se a la mateixa estació ferroviària de Rajadell. Accedim al poble per la C-25, a la sortida amb el mateix nom del poble. També s'hi pot arribar amb tren. GPS 31T 0391802 4620866.

The result of "ShowPlan" is a series of statements about what processing will be done to access and present the data specified in the original query. The following provides information on how to interpret ShowPlan statements.
A query plan might also indicate the need to build and use an intermediate temporary file (temp-file). This is a "scratch" area in a local array. It is used to save temporary results for various purposes, such as sorting. Just like a map, a temp-file has one or more subscripts, and possibly also node data.
First and foremost, plans would be affected by properly running TuneTable() in an environment that includes actual application data. Manually defining in the class source definition some of the values that TuneTable() normally computes — such as table EXTENTSIZE, field SELECTIVITY, and map BlockCount — can also be used to achieve the desired plan.

We live in a world of followers. Everyone follows the same daily routine, everyone walking through the same rigors of life. If there is something we don't like, we just leave it. Where has all the innovation gone? The cheerful curiosity and determination of the 19th and 20th centuries,, has seemingly disappeared. The onset of the internet has made us humans less innovative and a whole lot more dependent on computers.

Could someone please help me. My Mercede Benz 1998 ML320 is not working after I replaced the battery. After replacing the battery It won't stay started it just cuts off. The week before it started having this problem I did receive a diagnotic test that read Secondary Air pump what does this mean?
I think I've read that the imobilizer does that. It may be that it does not recognize the key anymore.

Our Small Group Tour and Conference to Paris and French Riviera in August 2019 sees us travelling to one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world.
Although it may seem like you know Paris even before visiting in person, nothing compares to actually being there. Seeing the Eiffel Tower, walking along the Seine at dusk or sipping coffee at an elegant sidewalk café are quintessential Parisian experiences — and the wonder of it is that real life takes on an aura of magical make-believe.
Paris started out as a little village inhabited by a tribe of people known as the Parisii. The original settlement was located on an island in the Seine River that later became the Roman island-city of Lutetia; today it is Ile de la Cite, the site of Notre-Dame Cathedral.
Since then, Paris has expanded onto the right and left banks of the river, the defensive walls and ramparts pushed further and further to accommodate the growing population. Today, as throughout its history, Paris is one of Europe' most important artistic, political, cultural, educational and commercial centres.
Your French Escapades itinerary begins with 5 nights' accommodation at the Westin Paris-Vendôme. Located amid the shopping, theatre and banking districts, the hotel is walking distance from attractions such as the Opéra Garnier, Place Vendôme and the Louvre Museum.
On your first night in Paris you will meet the other conference participants, presenters and the Amaco staff who will be escorting the tour. Over the next few days your itinerary will include a tour of the Islands of the Seine, including visits to Saint Chapelle, a jewel of Gothic construction as well as a tour among the historic 17th century houses on Ile St. Louis which were home many famous and notable people including French poet Charles Baudelaire, Andre Breton, the founder of surrealism and chemist and physicist Marie Curie.
A tour of the Palais du Louvre — or Louvre Museum as it is more commonly known will surely be a highlight of the itinerary. Once the residence of French kings, the Louvre houses many of the greatest works of art from ancient times through the 19th century including three famous women: Venus de Milo, the Winged Victory of Samothrace and Leonardo da Vinci's mysterious Mona Lisa.
Your immersion into the art culture of Paris continues with a guided walking tour of Montmartre, the 19th century mecca for artists, writers and poets. A visit to the Dali Museum is included while in Montmartre. The itinerary also includes a visit to the Rodin Museum, housed in the Hotel Biron, a charming rococo mansion surrounded by beautifully manicured gardens. The collection comprises more than 6,500 sculptures in marble, bronze, terracotta and plaster as well as over 10,000 of his drawings.
It goes without saying that the French are immensely proud of their cuisine and the French Escapades tour will allow you immerse yourself in this aspect of French culture. Your Amaco itinerary includes meals at some of the leading restaurants in Paris — including a Seine Dinner Cruise and a dinner high above the city at The Sky of Paris. As a bonus, you'll also enjoy a private cooking class at the Alain Ducasse Cooking School. Ducasse is a member of French cooking royalty, coming to prominence as the first chef to have a three-Michelin star restaurant in three different cities at the same time.
Your Parisian experience is nicely rounded out with dinner and a cabaret performance at Lido de Paris — one of the cities most exciting evening experiences.
From Paris we journey south by high speed train to The French Riviera. Offering a much more relaxed lifestyle, you will end your itinerary with 4 nights' at the JW Marriott Cannes. Located on La Croisette, the legendary oceanfront avenue, Cannes' most popular beaches, attractions and restaurants are all walking distance from the hotel.
During your stay in Cannes you'll be able to stroll along the elegant seaside promenade. This is where you'll find the most luxurious shopping and take in local fresh food markets proudly showcasing the finest in regional produce. Travel by ferry across to Saint Honorat Island — home to a community of monks since the 5th century where you can enjoy an escorted tour of the fortified monastery and grounds after which you'll be able to taste some of the wine and honey made on the island.
The French Escapades itinerary offers exceptional value for money — with all accommodation, tours, activities, meals and beverages covered in the package cost.
As with all Amaco tours though, we're keeping a few surprises up our sleeves . . . things that will turn the memorable to unforgettable.
We hope you can join us as we travel around France in August 2019. For your comfort and touring pleasure, we've limited the number of participants to just 40 people. Register today or you will miss out!
