The discography of Jane's Addiction, an American alternative rock band, consists of four studio albums, two live albums, four compilation albums, seventeen singles and ten music videos. Jane's Addiction was formed in Los Angeles, California in 1985. The band is composed of Perry Farrell (vocals), Dave Navarro (guitar), Eric Avery (bass) and Stephen Perkins (drums). After breaking up in 1991, Jane's Addiction briefly toured in 1997, reunited in 2001 and then parted ways in 2004. Jane's Addiction reunited again in 2008, with founding member Eric Avery returning on bass. In 2010, Avery Left once again, only to return once more in 2022. The band's varied musical style has influences rooted in punk rock and heavy metal.

Jane's Addiction was one of the first bands to emerge from the early 1990s alternative rock movement to gain mainstream media attention and commercial success in the United States. Their initial farewell tour launched the first Lollapalooza festival, an annual touring alternative rock showcase. As a result, Jane's Addiction became icons of what Farrell dubbed the "Alternative Nation".

Their debut album, Nothing's Shocking, was released in 1988 on Warner Bros. Records. The album was considered a failure on the music charts only reaching #103 on the Billboard 200, however, the album has since been certified 2× Multi-Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America. Three singles, "Jane Says", "Mountain Song" and "Ocean Size", were released from the album in 1988 and 1989 respectively. Their debut single "Jane Says", became their first chart entry on the Alternative Songs chart, peaking at #6. The song was one of two songs from Nothing's Shocking to enter any Billboard chart ( "Ocean Size " #36 US Alternative ) .

In 1990, the group released their second studio album, Ritual de lo Habitual. The album reached the top 20 of the Billboard 200 and was also their highest-selling album to date, going 2× Platinum in the US. The album featured four singles including the number-one singles "Stop!" and "Been Caught Stealing". After this album, they took a 13-year hiatus away from new music, however, they did release six compilation and live albums between 1987 and 2009.

Strays was their first full-length studio album in 13 years. It was released on Capitol Records on July 22, 2003. It peaked at number 4 in the United States, along with many other international charts. The album's lead single, "Just Because", became their first appearance on the Billboard Hot 100. The song also became their first Top 5 on the Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart, as well as their third number one on the Alternative Songs chart. The second single, however, only made it into the Top 40 of the rock charts. Nevertheless, the album was certified gold.

After a four-year hiatus, Jane's Addiction reunited in 2008. After touring and recording, the band released its fourth studio album, The Great Escape Artist on October 18, 2011. In the summer of 2013, Jane's Addiction released a single, "Another Soulmate".

Air Marshal Sir George Robert Beamish,  (29 April 1905 – 13 November 1967) was a senior commander in the Royal Air Force from the Second World War to his retirement in the late 1950s.  Prior to the Second World War, while Beamish was in the RAF, he was a keen rugby union player, playing for Leicester and being capped 26 times for Ireland and was selected for the 1930 British Lions tour. He was also the chairman of the RAF Rugby Union and an Air Force rugby selector.

Personal history
George Beamish was born in Dunmanway, Ireland on 29 April 1905. He attended the Coleraine Academical Institution and he and his three younger brothers, Victor, Charles and Cecil were all accomplished sportsmen and went on to join the RAF, Charles also being capped by Ireland.

From 1923 Beamish attended the RAF College, Cranwell as a flight cadet and after he was commissioned in late 1924, Beamish was posted as a pilot on No. 100 Squadron. In 1934 he was made Flight Commander of No. 45 Squadron and in 1936 he was made Squadron Leader.

After attending RAF Staff College in 1937 he was attached to the Air Staff. In 1939 he was made Senior Operations Officer for Palestine and Transjordan. On 17 May 1941 he was appointed senior RAF officer on Crete overseeing the reception of units after their withdrawal from Greece. To aid him in this task he was allocated two RAF squadrons from Egypt, 30 and 205 to bolster the fighters already stationed on the island. But following the German Invasion of Crete this action turned into the defence of the island. Unable to convince the Army Commander of the need to defeat the invaders from the air, the island fell and Beamish ordered the RAF squadrons to withdraw to Egypt on 19 May. Beamish remained on Crete to assist General Freyberg, both men escaping the island aboard a Sunderland in late May. He was then appointed Senior Air Staff Officer first at Western Desert Air Force, then at North African Tactical Air Forces and then at Second Tactical Air Force before progressing to the roles of Air Officer Commanding No. 44 Group and then No. 45 Group.

After the war he became President of the RAF Selection Board and then Director of Weapons at the Air Ministry in 1947. He went on to be Commandant of the Royal Air Force College Cranwell in 1949, Air Officer Commanding, Air Headquarters Iraq in 1950 and Director-General of Personnel in 1952. His last appointments were as Air Officer Commanding-in-Chief at Transport Command in 1954 and Air Officer Commanding-in-Chief at Technical Training Command in 1955. In 1955, Beamish was appointed a Knight Commander of the Order of the Bath. He retired in 1958.

In 1962 he was made High Sheriff of County Londonderry.

Rugby career
Beamish won his first international cap in 1925, at the age of 19, representing Ireland in that year's Home Nations Championship in a six all draw with England. At the time he was representing Coleraine at club level. Beamish was then selected for the remaining games of the tournament, a home loss to Scotland and an impressive 19–3 win over Wales. During the 1927–28 season, and now playing club rugby for Leicester, Beamish was approached to play for invitational touring team the Barbarians.

In 1928, nearly three years after his last international game, Beamish was recalled to the Ireland team. From the first game of the 1928 Five Nations Championship until the end of the 1933 tournament Beamish was rarely out of the squad. In 1930 Beamish was selected for the British Isles team on their tour of Australia and New Zealand. He played in all five Tests and 17 of the regional matches, scoring two tries, one each against Otago and a joint Marlborough/Nelson Bay team.

After the British tour Beamish returned to the Ireland squad for the 1931 Championship playing in all four games. He was then selected as Ireland team captain when the team faced the 1931 touring South African team in Dublin. He retained the captaincy for the 1932 Home Nations Championship, and steered Ireland to their first Championship win for twenty years.  The 1933 campaign was Beamish's last for Ireland, playing in all three games and captaining the team in a win over Wales. During his career, Beamish also played club rugby for London Irish and was captain of the RAF rugby side.

George Beamish is also credited with getting the green of Ireland represented in the kit currently worn by the British & Irish Lions. On the 1930 tour to New Zealand, of which he was a member, the tourists wore what was by then the standard blue jerseys. These themselves caused some controversy because the New Zealand side, by then already synonymous with the appellation "All Blacks", had an all black kit that clashed with the Lions' blue. After much reluctance and debate, but having to defer to the rugby custom of accommodating guests, New Zealand agreed to change for the Tests and the All Blacks became the All Whites for the first time. Also on that tour, a delegation led by George Beamish expressed their displeasure at the fact that whilst the blue of Scotland, white of England and red of Wales were represented in the strip there was no green for Ireland. A green flash was added to the socks, which from 1938 became a green turnover and that has remained a feature of the strip ever since.

La Habanera is a 1937 German romantic melodrama feature film directed by Detlef Sierck (later known as Douglas Sirk). Zarah Leander, who was recently signed by UFA, stars, in the lead role of Astrée Sternhjelm and also performs its title song, "La Habanera".  Like many of her films of this era, it proved an enormous box office success.

Plot
In 1927, Swedish tourists Astrée Sternhjelm and her elderly aunt Ana are nearing the end of a visit to Puerto Rico.  Ana despises the island, which she considers backwards, but Astrée is enchanted by the Caribbean climate, the openness of the islanders, and the local habanera music. Astrée is especially taken with Don Pedro de Avila, a rich and powerful landowner they meet on their last day on the island. Don Pedro invites the women to a bullfight, where he heroically jumps into the ring after the matador is injured, and kills the bull himself. The next day, as their ship sails back to Sweden, Astrée spontaneously decides to stay. She runs down the gangway and finds Don Pedro waiting for her. They are soon married.

Ten years later, in 1937, in Stockholm, Dr. Sven Nagel, a former lover of Astrée's, and his associate, Dr. Gomez, bid her Aunt Ana farewell. The doctors are departing for Puerto Rico, sponsored by Ana's medical foundation, to investigate the mysterious and deadly Puerto Rico fever. Ana also asks them to bring Astrée back home to Sweden. Meanwhile, in Puerto Rico, Astrée is trapped in a loveless, miserable marriage to Don Pedro. Her paradise has turned to hell and her son, Juan, is her only reason to stay. Don Pedro has told her he will take the boy away if she tries to leave.

Drs. Nagel and Gomez arrive, but their presence unnerves Don Pedro and his associates, who fear the focus on the Puerto Rico fever will ruin their business.  An attempt to find a cure eight years earlier by researchers from the Rockefeller Institute was a failure, and the resulting international publicity depressed the island economy for three years, resulting in widespread famine. As a result, Don Pedro and the other businessmen have been covering up the disease's existence ever since, even though hundreds of islanders die from it every year. They do not want the doctors investigating it, and do everything in their power to stop them.

The Doctors, receiving no local support, conduct their investigation on their own, in secret, doing lab tests illegally in their hotel room. Meanwhile, Astrée has an argument with Don Pedro about young Juan. Don Pedro wants Juan to learn about bullfighting, while Astrée has been teaching the boy about snow and Sweden. Don Pedro decides to take Juan's education out of her hands. Furious, Astrée secretly books passage on the next ship leaving Puerto Rico for Sweden, to take Juan home with her, but it does not leave for twelve days. Meanwhile, the Puerto Rico fever begins to claim its first victims, and Drs. Nagel and Gomez continue their search for a cure.

Don Pedro learns about Astrée’s escape plans and suspects that her former lover Dr. Nagel is involved. Don Pedro invites the doctors to a party at his mansion, so that his henchmen have the opportunity to search the doctors' hotel room and gain evidence against them for their arrest and deportation. At the party, Dr. Nagel and Astrée meet and he instantly sees how unhappy she is. They fall in love again. Astrée sings La Habanera for the crowd, presumably for her husband, but the song also declares her love for the doctor. Don Pedro learns that the search of the hotel room has provided the evidence needed to arrest Dr. Nagel.

Just before the doctors are arrested however, Don Pedro, who has been sweating profusely all night, collapses, unconscious. Dr. Nagel diagnoses Puerto Rico fever and calls for his newly developed antidote from his hotel room. However, he learns that all his medical supplies, including the antidote, were destroyed on Don Pedro's direct orders, during the raid on the hotel room. Dr. Nagel declares that Don Pedro “dug his own grave” as the man dies. Don Pedro's mansion is donated to the poor for use as a retirement home. Now a widow, Astrée is free to return with her lover and son to Sweden.

Comments
This 1937 black-and-white movie was the final film directed by Detlef Sierck in Germany before he fled Germany and eventually emigrated to the United States. The film was produced within six months. In Hollywood, Sierck, now Sirk, continued to produce more melodramatic movies, yet on a grander scale. Zarah Leander had been hired by UFA, the German film company, in 1936, and was its new star. This movie shows her beauty and talents as Germany’s answer to Greta Garbo, and further presents her accomplishments as a singer. Bruno Balz, who wrote the text for the title song, would later be sent to a concentration camp - he was a homosexual. A funny scene with the comedian Werner Finck as Söderblom was cut by the censors, but restored after the war. This was the only film for the child actor Michael Schulz-Dornburg who played Juan; at the end of WWII, he was drafted and died at the age of 17 near Berlin in 1945.

The movie was not shot in Puerto Rico, but on Tenerife in the Canary Islands, during the Spanish Civil War. It presents an interesting but fanciful image of Puerto Rico, mixing curiosity about the exotic, fantasy, and prejudice. The shepherds wear loincloths, and everybody speaks perfect German. The island appears to be run by selfish, authoritarian and corrupt local businessmen and landowners, and the movie is critical of the United States as the responsible party. In the film, habanera music (music that actually originated from Cuba) represents the soul of the island, its "erotic pull", it captivates and enchants Astrée for some time, but in the end she is happy to return home. The lesson for the contemporary German moviegoer was clear: it is better to stick to your roots. The film plays into the Nazi propaganda theme trying to repatriate Germans. In fact, it was among the movies actively supported by the Reich's Minister of Propaganda, Joseph Goebbels. The film can also be seen as critical of Nazi Germany: a dictator imperils his own people, is hostile towards foreigners, and has a secret he wishes to hide (the plague = concentration camps). With the demise of UFA, the rights of the film belong to the Friedrich Wilhelm Murnau Foundation.

Edward M. LaDou, III (October 9, 1955 – December 27, 2007) was an American pizza chef, who is credited with popularizing gourmet California-style pizzas. Ed LaDou was the first pizza chef at Wolfgang Puck's Spago restaurant in Los Angeles. He also developed the first menu for the American chain restaurant California Pizza Kitchen.

The invention of the California-style pizza begins with a Berkeley, California, pizza restaurant, Chez Panisse, and its owner, Alice Waters. Waters was the first to create pizzas with exotic and unusual toppings which were cooked in a wood-burning pizza oven. However, LaDou was a major figure in the development and popularity of these types of pizzas. LaDou was known for introducing very unusual ingredients into his pizza recipes at a time when such toppings were highly unorthodox. Examples include duck breast and hoisin sauce pizza and barbecue chicken pizza.

Early life
Ed LaDou was born on McChord Air Force Base in Washington state on October 9, 1955. His father, Edward M. LaDou, was a United States Air Force pilot and his mother is named Patricia Gallinetti. LaDou was partially raised in Los Altos, California, and first worked at a restaurant when he was a high school student.

Pizza
LaDou was working as a chef at several restaurants in San Francisco by the mid-1970s, including at Frankie, Johnnie & Luigi Too! in San Francisco, and restaurant Ecco in Palo Alto. He gained a reputation as an experimental pizza maker, which often made him popular with his customers, but sometimes clashed with the ideas of the owners of the restaurants in which he worked. LaDou was working at a restaurant called Prego, when he was discovered by chef Wolfgang Puck, who was eating at the restaurant. Puck ordered one of LaDou's pizzas, which was topped with ricotta cheese, red peppers, pâté and mustard and immediately offered him a job at his Spago restaurant in Los Angeles, which at the time was not open yet.

Spago
Spago opened in January 1982 with LaDou as its first pizza chef. Puck allowed La Dou to choose his own toppings and recipes. The original menu included pizzas topped with duck sausage or smoked salmon. LaDou later remarked in an interview about his move to Spago's, "It was like being an artist who'd worked with 10 colors all of his life and then got to use 300." LaDou's pizzas were highly popular, making reservations at Spago very hard to get.

California Pizza Kitchen
LaDou was approached by Larry Flax, who co-founded the California Pizza Kitchen in 1985 with fellow attorney Rick Rosenfield. Flax had previously taken a pizza making course with LaDou at Los Angeles'  Ma Maison, where Wolfgang Puck had been a chef immediately prior to opening Spago. Flax and Rosenfield asked LaDou to help develop a menu for the California Pizza Kitchen. LaDou accepted and developed the restaurant chain's first menu, which included the CPK's signature barbecue chicken pizza. The California Pizza Kitchen became a success and now has restaurants across the United States and worldwide.

Caioti
LaDou left California Pizza Kitchen shortly after developing its menu. In 1987, he opened his own restaurant, called Caioti Cafe, which first opened in Laurel Canyon, and later a Caioti Pizza Cafe restaurant on the Sunset Strip with Carol Saiz, before moving to its current location in Studio City, California. Notable dishes invented at Caioti Cafe included "Mexican cactus pizza", "smoked rabbit pizza", and "foie gras calzone". The Caioti Pizza Cafe is known for the garlic knots, the smoked salmon pizza (like the one from Spago), the barbecue chicken pizza (like the one from California Pizza Kitchen), "Cajun pizza", and "Rockefeller Pizza".

At Caioti Pizza Cafe, LaDou invented a salad that many customers believe induces labor during pregnancy. It is called, "The Salad" and contains romaine lettuce, watercress, walnuts, and gorgonzola, tossed with a "magical" balsamic dressing. The dressing is so popular it is sold by the bottle. Hillary Duff, Jinger Duggar, and other celebrities have attempted to use the salad to induce labor.

Death
Ed LaDou died of cancer at St. John's Health Center in Santa Monica, California, on December 27, 2007, at the age of 52. He was surrounded by his wife, Carrie LaDou, and their daughter, Cassidy Rose.

Dewey Martin (born Walter Milton Dwayne Midkiff, September 30, 1940 – January 31, 2009) was a Canadian rock drummer, best known for his work with Buffalo Springfield, for which he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1997.

Career
Dewey Martin was born in Chesterville, Ontario, Canada in 1940. He was raised there and in the surrounding Smiths Falls, Ontario and Ottawa, Ontario areas.  In Ottawa, he attended Glebe Collegiate Institute, where he was elected "head boy".

Martin started playing drums when he was about 13 years old. His first band was a high school outfit, The Jive Rockets, which also featured guitarist Vern Craig, later a member of the Staccatos. He soon progressed and played with various dance and rockabilly groups in the Ottawa Valley area, including Bernie Early & the Early Birds. Through rock and roll singer Andy Wilson, a veteran of the Ottawa-area scene, he was allowed a short guest appearance singing "Whole Lotta Shakin' Going On" backed by Wilson's group, Larry Lee and the Leesures, during the Leesures' appearance as part of a package rock & roll show in Ottawa in the early 1960s. A Nashville producer was sufficiently impressed and agreed to record him in Nashville.

Moves to United States and Nashville
Interrupted by a brief stint in the U.S. Army, Martin's next couple of years were based out of Nashville, where he worked as a freelance (some say itinerant) drummer for many Country music legendary artists including Carl Perkins, The Everly Brothers, Patsy Cline, Charlie Rich, Faron Young and Roy Orbison, among others. In 1963, he travelled to Las Vegas with Faron Young's band and then to Los Angeles, California, where he was later quoted as having said he loved the climate and decided to stay. However, various tours also took him out of town "on the road."

Sir Raleigh & The Coupons
Through Mel Taylor of The Ventures, Martin began working in the Pacific Northwest with  a group called Lucky Lee & The Blue Diamonds. In November 1964, he used some local musicians to record his first single, a cover of "White Cliffs of Dover" backed by the band original, "Somethin' or Other" for A&M Records, which was released under the guise Sir Raleigh & The Coupons.

During 1965 Sir Raleigh & The Coupons released two more singles on A&M – "While I Wait" c/w "Somethin' or Other" and "Tomorrow's Gonna Be Another Day" c/w "Whitcomb Street" and a single for Tower – "Tell Her Tonight" c/w "If You Need Me."

During this period Martin returned to Los Angeles and picked up local group the Sons of Adam to support him as a permanent outfit back in the Northwest. The new line up opened for The Beach Boys and Herman's Hermits during this period.

Martin also recorded a final single for Tower – "I Don't Want to Cry" c/w "Always," which was released in February 1966. In 1980, Picc-A-Dilly/First American label pulled together most of The Sir Raleigh & The Coupons material for the Dewey Martin album, "One Buffalo Heard."

The Standells, MFQ and The Dillards
Back in Los Angeles in late 1965 Martin spent a few months with The Standells when drummer/singer Dick Dodd left. When Dodd returned in February 1966, Martin briefly joined The Modern Folk Quartet before touring and recording a demo with The Dillards. During late March/early April, Martin was working with The Dillards at the Ice House in Pasadena when Doug Dillard told him that his services were no longer needed and gave him a telephone number for a new group that needed a drummer. The band was Buffalo Springfield.

Buffalo Springfield
Martin became the last member to join the legendary group at its founding. Along with Stephen Stills and Richie Furay, he was one of only three musicians to stay with the group from its inception in April 1966 to its disbandment on May 5, 1968. During his time with the group Martin also did session work for The Monkees.

In concert he sang covers of Wilson Pickett's "In The Midnight Hour" and Richie Furay's "Nobody's Fool" and "Good Time Boy." The latter appeared on the band's second album, Buffalo Springfield Again. He also sang Neil Young's "Mr. Soul" as the introduction to Young's "Broken Arrow" on the same album. Martin also sang backing vocals on the band's biggest hit, Stephen Stills's classic political rock anthem "For What It's Worth."

New Buffalo Springfield
When the original band broke up Martin formed a new version in September 1968. Dubbed "New Buffalo Springfield", the lineup comprised guitarists Dave Price (Davy Jones' stand-in in The Monkees) and Gary Rowles (son of jazz pianist Jimmy Rowles); bass player Bob Apperson; drummer Don Poncher; and horn player Jim Price, who later became a top session musician for The Rolling Stones and Joe Cocker among others.

The new band toured extensively and appeared at the highly publicised "Holiday Rock Festival" in San Francisco on December 25–26 but soon ran afoul of Stephen Stills and Neil Young who took legal action to prevent Martin from using the band's name.

In February 1969, Martin and Dave Price formed a second version of New Buffalo Springfield with guitarist Bob "BJ" Jones and bass player Randy Fuller, brother of Bobby Fuller. The band did some tentative recordings with producer Tom Dowd overseeing but they were scrapped. They performed live at the Easter Rock Festival in Fort Lauderdale, FL on April 1 of 1969.

The second line up was expanded with another guitarist Joey Newman in June 1969, but two months later Martin was fired and the remaining members carried on as Blue Mountain Eagle.

Medicine Ball
In September 1969 Martin signed a solo deal with Uni Records and recorded a cover of the country favourite, "Jambalaya" with session ace  and TCB Band member James Burton on guitar. It was released as a single with Martin's own composition "Ala-Bam" on the b-side.

He then briefly worked on some new material with guitarist John Noreen from the folk-rock group, Rose Garden but by December the pair had split.

Martin next put together a new group called Medicine Ball, which featured mainstays, guitarist Billy Darnell and pianist Pete Bradstreet, who later recorded with the band Electric Range. The band also featured at various times, guitarists Bob Stamps and Randy Fuller, and bass players Terry Gregg, Harvey Kagan and Steve Lefever. An album, "Dewey Martin's Medicine Ball", was released in August 1970 and featured steel guitarist Buddy Emmons and former Buffalo Springfield bass player Bruce Palmer.

In late 1970 Martin and Darnell formed a new version of Medicine Ball with pianist Charles Lamont and bass player Tom Leavey and made some tentative recordings which were subsequently scrapped.

Martin then recorded five tracks with the TCB Band for RCA. Two of the songs – a cover of Alan O'Day's "Caress Me Pretty Music" and a cover of Joe Cocker and Chris Stainton's "There Must Be A Reason" were put out as a single in early 1971. In June of that year Martin traveled to Bakersfield, California, where he judged a Battle of the Bands sponsored by a local radio station. There he spotted the Bill Shaw Madness, whose members included, in addition to Shaw (guitar and vocals), Mark Yeary (piano, organ and vocals), Lew Wilcox (bass and vocals), Daddy Ray Arvizu (saxes), and Eric Griffin (drums). That night Martin tapped Madness as his backup band, intending to tour in support of the material he had recorded for RCA. Following several months of rehearsal and two Bakersfield performances, creative differences led to Martin's return to Los Angeles. After producing an album for Truk in late 1971, Martin retired from the music industry to become a car mechanic.  By the mid-1970s he was back in hometown Ottawa, living with his mother and taking an interest in the career of a local group, Maxwell Train.  Together with Toronto-based Bruce Palmer, he sought to introduce the group to US industry contacts, but nothing substantial came of the project - though Martin remained in the US.

Eighties revival and beyond
During the mid-1980s Martin briefly worked with Pink Slip and the Meisner-Roberts Band. In the late 80's while touring with Roberts and Meisner, he decided to stay a few extra nights in San Antonio following a gig for the San Antonio Jaycees to see his buddy, musician Augie Myers. Martin told concert producer/musician Raven Alan St. John he had been robbed by hotel maids at the Sierra Royale Suites and couldn't pay for the extra nights. The hotel comped him for two more nights and fired one maid.

He also played with Buffalo Springfield Revisited, the band formed by original bass player, Bruce Palmer. During the early 1990s Martin revived the mantle under the name "Buffalo Springfield Again" with Bruce Palmer and Joe Dickinson (father of singer Laura Dickinson) for further live work but retired around 1998. Since then he spent time developing his own drum rim.

In 1997 Martin invented and filed a patent application for a drum with a three-part rim that could be used to make three different rimshot sounds. He received patent 5,834,667 on this drum on Nov 10, 1998; the patent was issued to him under his legal name, Walter M.D. Midkiff.
In 1997 Dewey was inducted into The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame along with Buffalo Springfield.

In 2008 Martin joined the cast of Matt Alan's live Internet radio program, OUTLAW RADIO. His unique personality, fascinating stories, and quirky wit soon endeared him to the show's worldwide audience. A special three-hour tribute to "The Great Dewey Martin" was broadcast Saturday, February 9, produced by Matt Alan, and featuring tributes by those who knew and loved him, including record producer John Hill, author Burl Barer, Prescott Niles of The Knack, Micky Dolenz of The Monkees, media legend Shadoe Stevens, and many more. The program is available in the archives at Outlawradiousa.com.

Death
Martin died on January 31, 2009. His body was found the next day by a roommate in his Van Nuys apartment. Longtime friend Lisa Lenes said Martin had health problems in previous years, and she believed he died of natural causes. He was 68.

The Flintstones: The Rescue of Dino & Hoppy is a 1991 platform video game by Taito for the Nintendo Entertainment System and based on the animated series The Flintstones. Taito would later release another Flintstones game for the NES titled The Flintstones: Surprise at Dinosaur Peak in 1994.

Gameplay
The gameplay is preceded by a short cutscene which sets the stage, where the Flintstones and the Rubbles are enjoying their lives in Bedrock. That's when a man from the 30th century named Dr. Butler kidnaps Fred's pet Dino and Barney's pet Hoppy. Fred's alien friend, Gazoo, lost parts of his time machine due to Dr. Butler. Gazoo is visible only to Fred and to nobody else (a slight change from the series where Barney, Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm could also see him).

With each stage Fred completes, he earns back another piece of the time machine, and Gazoo welds together the pieces progressively. Throughout the stages, Fred runs into Wilma, Barney, Betty, as well as George Jetson in the future stage. Fred has to defeat a boss at each stage. At the end of the map, he gets the last piece and travels to the future, where he has to defeat Dr. Butler.

Reception
GamePro praised the graphics, gameplay, and the abundance of levels, but criticized the music. AllGame gave a review score of 4 out of 5 stars praising the game as a first rate platform with bright colorful graphics that mimic the cartoon series stating “Fred is easy to control, and his ability to club enemies and climb ledges goes a long way towards making the gameplay feel different from other titles in the genre.”

7 GRAND DAD

The game is infamous for a bootleg ROM hack of the game titled 7 GRAND DAD (). Released in 1992 and published by J.Y. Company in Taiwan, the game featured Fred Flintstone's head being swapped with Mario's head from Super Mario Bros. 3. The title screen features a sprite of Mario originating from a bootleg Taiwanese gambling video game called Dian Shi Ma Li, alongside a sprite of Fred Flintstone in a star originating from the unhacked game's title screen. This hack would eventually become an Internet meme, becoming famous after a live stream by Twitch streamer and YouTuber Vargskelethor Joel of the streaming group Vinesauce, as well as becoming a running joke on the parody music YouTube channel SiIvaGunner.

Tardebigge Lake is a large feeder reservoir, about  in size, built to supply water for the famous flight of locks running from Tardebigge towards Worcester, on the Worcester and Birmingham Canal. It is maintained by the Canal and River Trust and still supplies water to the canal system. The lake is up to  deep at the dam end, shelving off to around  at the inlet end.

Access to walkers is allowed to the dam end and the side of the lake alongside the canal path.

Fishing
The lake was used for many years as a general fishery run by Cadbury's of Bournville, then licensed by British Waterways. It is now run as a closed syndicate and, as it increases in popularity, spaces for the syndicate are limited.

Stephen Alvarez (born 1965) is an American photojournalist. He is founder and president of the Ancient Art Archive, a global initiative to record, preserve, and share high-resolution images of ancient artwork. Throughout his career, he has produced global stories about exploration and culture. He became a National Geographic photographer in 1995. His pictures have won awards in Pictures of the Year International   and Communications Arts  and have been exhibited at Visa Pour L’Image International Photojournalism Festival in Perpignan, France.

Life and education
Stephen Alvarez was born in Sewanee, Tennessee, where he continues to reside with his family. In 1987 he graduated from The University of the South with a B.A. in Comparative Religion.

Career
An avid cave explorer from his youth, Alvarez received his first professional assignment from Time Magazine in 1991 to photograph discoveries in Mammoth Cave. This was the first of many assignments to photograph cave exploration and underground landscapes throughout the world. His first National Geographic assignment in 1995 took him over 20,000 feet up into the Peruvian Andes to photograph the discovery of a 500-year-old Incan Mummy Juanita, popularly known as the Ice Maiden. Other work for National Geographic took him to Borneo to document exploration of the caves of Sarawak to aid in their conservation. In Belize, Alvarez covered a 1999 jungle expedition to map Chiquibul, the longest cave in Central America.

Alvarez's work has taken him to remote and near-inaccessible locations around the globe. In Mexico he photographed a poisonous hydrogen sulfide cave, Cueva de Villa Luz, where scientists study clues to the origins of life. In 2001 National Geographic sent him to the Middle East to photograph the deserts of the Empty Quarter and the immense caves of Oman on the Selma Plateau, including Majlis al Jinn. For a 2004 article, The Nature Conservancy assigned Alvarez to document ongoing cave conservation and exploration in the southeastern United States. That same year, Alvarez won a Banff Centre grant to photograph the Cave of the Swallows, a deep vertical pit in Mexico, presenting his work at Banff in 2006. Alvarez photographed the deepest cave in the world, Voronya Cave, located 2000 meters beneath the Caucasus Mountains in the breakaway Russian republic of Abkhazia. He photographed subterranean Rome in 2005 for National Geographic. In 2006 National Geographic assigned Alvarez the story Raging Danger, which documents the river caves of Papua New Guinea. This story won a Communication Arts award in Editorial Series.

Much of his photojournalistic work covers threatened and marginalized populations. "Maya Underworld," published in the November 2004 issue of National Geographic, took Alvarez to Mexico, Guatemala, Belize and Honduras.  The story explores the worldview of today's Maya peoples through their rituals and religion as well as their archeological past. Alvarez was invited to exhibit this work at Visa pour L’Image International Photojournalism Festival in 2005. In 2004 he took a break from magazine assignments to document the ongoing conflict and its aftermath in northern Uganda and southern Sudan.  One of his photographs of the cycle of violence on the Uganda/Sudan border won an award in 2004 Pictures of the Year International. In 2011 he was photographer and videographer for an NPR series titled "Nashville: Up From Prostitution," which described the work of Magdalene, a two-year recovery program founded by the Reverend Becca Stevens.

Traveling across the Pacific in 2007, Alvarez photographed "Peopling the Pacific," a story about the earliest voyagers of the Pacific Islands. His adventure included sailing on the traditional Hawaiian vessel, the Hokule'a. The story was published in National Geographic in March, 2008. "Deep South," Alvarez's photographs of caves in the southeastern United States, including Rumbling Falls Cave, Tennessee, was published in the June 2009 National Geographic. Other National Geographic assignments include coverage of Madagascar's Tsingy de Bemaraha Stone Forest in November 2009; a story covering the impact of White-nose syndrome on bats in December 2010; and an exploration of the tunnels, sewers and catacombs of underground Paris for the February 2011 issue, a story that was also featured on NPR.

In 2012, Alvarez undertook an assignment on behalf of National Geographic Creative and Microsoft Corporation to photograph the world's seven natural wonders using only a Nokia Lumia smartphone camera. The project took him from the base of Mount Everest to Victoria Falls and the Great Barrier Reef.

The Ancient Art Archive
In 2014, while on assignment for a National Geographic story on the roots of artistic expression (published as "The Origins of Art" in the January 2015 issue), Alvarez photographed prehistoric cave paintings in France's Chauvet Cave. As Alvarez described it, the experience of photographing the cave art—some as much as 35,000 years old—inspired him to find a way to “digitally preserve what’s there and deliver that to many more people than could otherwise see it.” In 2016 Alvarez  launched the Ancient Art Archive, a project to use photography, 3D modeling, and Virtual reality technology to capture detailed, three-dimensional records of ancient works of art. The Archive's board of advisors include archaeologists Jan Simek and Christopher Henshilwood, Arctic researcher and diver Joseph B. MacInnis, and Van Ling, visual effects supervisor on James Cameron's Titanic and many other films. To date the Ancient Art Archive has created explorable 3D models of rock art of Bears Ears National Monument, Chauvet Cave, Utah's San Rafael Swell, and precontact-era cave art of the Chickasaw Nation.

Witness Protection is a 1999 American crime drama television film directed by Richard Pearce and starring Tom Sizemore, Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, Forest Whitaker, Shawn Hatosy, and Skye McCole Bartusiak. The teleplay by Daniel Therriault is based on a 1996 New York Times Magazine article entitled "The Invisible Family" by Robert Sabbag. It was broadcast by HBO on December 11, 1999.

Plot synopsis
South Boston career criminal Bobby "Bats" Batton, facing execution by his partner in crime, Theo Cruise, a Charlestown mobster, whom the FBI wants behind bars for a double murder, is offered a deal by the feds: immunity from prosecution for several serious crimes in exchange for testimony against Cruise, after which he and his family will join the Federal Witness Protection Program.

Batton accepts the offer, and he, his wife Cindy, his Harvard-bound son Sean, and young daughter Suzie spend five days with U.S. Marshal Steve Beck, who coaches them in their new identities in preparation for their relocation to Seattle.

Trying to cope without money, friends, relatives, pets, possessions, or any semblance of a past existence proves to be more difficult than any of them anticipated. When the family slowly begins to disintegrate under the weight of recriminations and frustration, Bobby wonders if his freedom is worth the sacrifices his loved ones have been forced to make.

Production
The film was inspired by Robert Sabbag's article "The Invisible Family", the cover story of the February 11, 1996 issue of The New York Times Magazine. According to Sabbag, "I realized that this was going to be a movie when 11 producers called me the day after it was published."

Filming took place in Los Angeles. The Witness Security Safe Site and Orientation Center, the real-life secret facility in the Washington, D.C., area used by the Witness Protection Program, was re-created on a sound stage at Raleigh Studios.

Critical reception
Caren Weiner Campbell of Entertainment Weekly rated the DVD release a B and added, "With its moody Sopranos vibe, this modest made-for-cable drama begins gracefully but bogs down a bit during the family's orientation, during which Whitaker, as the feds' liaison, gives a performance so subdued he almost seems to be sleepwalking."

Trimension is a framerate enhancement software by Philips for video, primarily DVD.  The software utilizes both picture and stream information to render new frames between the original frames of video (tweening), thus increasing the framerate and enhancing the smoothness of motion.

Currently, Trimension is capable of enhancing frame rate from 24 to 48 (for 60 Hz displays) or 72 frames per second.

The motion interpolation produced by Trimension is not entirely natural, but can be pleasing in many respects.  The software has been criticized for artificial look and has been said to make film seem like video, and potentially to degrade the movie-watching experience. There is also a slight cropping of the video to allow for good edges of the smoothed picture.

Framerate enhancement can provide an interesting benefit if it is performed after upscaling.  If the picture is scaled to a high-definition resolution and then tweened, the tweened frames will have motion that exists in the high-definition space even though the actual picture resolution does not.  It is unclear whether available implementations of Trimension scale before or after tweening.

InterVideo includes Trimension as part of their WinDVD software beginning with version 6.

Saint-Jacut-de-la-Mer (, literally Saint-Jacut of the Sea; ) is a commune in the Côtes-d'Armor département of Brittany in northwestern France.

Population

Inhabitants of Saint-Jacut-de-la-Mer are called jaguens (masculine) and jaguines (feminine) in French.

Location
Saint-Jacut is sited on a well protected peninsula between two sea inlets. The sandy beach slopes unusually gently: the lateral distance between the low tide and high tide positions - as much as five km - is correspondingly above average, as is the speed with which the sea moves between the two extremities.

Prehistory
The peninsula of Saint-Jacut and the Ebihens archipelago have the presence of several archeological sites attesting to human presence during the Neolithic, Bronze Age and Iron Age.  Most of these sites are the result of work sites and small encampments in which humans exploited the mineral and sea resources of the area.

History
The village of Saint-Jacut evolved around successive abbeys founded on the peninsula. It provided the monastery with food and supplies and more importantly, it served as one its seigneuries. The history of the first abbey is legendary, its story only written down in an anonymous 11th-century Latin document from the time of the abbey's second founding.

The legend holds that a British-born monk named "Iagu" ("Jacut" in the local dialect of Gallo) founded a monastery at the site of an older hermitage established by a Saint Doac on the "Island of Landoac" (literally "llan of Doac"). St. Jacut's family  had fled the Anglo-Saxon invasions.  He arrived in Armorica with his father, Fragan, his mother, Gwen Teirbron, and his twin, Guethenoc. The family settled in Ploufragan, where his sister Clervie (or Creirvie) and his younger brother, Winwaloe, were born.

In time, the abbey would come to follow Saint Columbanus's version of the Celtic monastic rule.  The monks began construction of levees (the digue des Moines) that would ensure that the land connecting Landoac to the mainland did not flood during high tides and creating the presqu'île ("almost island") of Saint-Jacut. During the Norman invasions, the monks abandoned the abbey, retreating to the safety of southern Brittany in Saint-Jacut-les-Pins.

The abbey was rebuilt in 1008 by the Abbot Hinguethen at the current site of the Abbey of Saint Jacut.  The new abbey followed the Rule of Saint Benedict.  The monks elected their abbot, who had spiritual and temporal authority over the abbey and its extensive properties throughout Brittany and in Cambridgeshire.  The abbey enjoyed the patronage of the dukes of Brittany and the kings of France.  From 1471 to 1647 the abbot was appointed by the temporal ruler of Brittany. After this, the abbots rarely resided at the abbey and, interested mostly in collecting its revenue, cared little for its upkeep.

The abbey entered into a period of decline, which was intensified by the French Wars of Religion. By 1604 it was described as being in ruins. There were several attempts at restoring the abbey to its former state. A whole new congregation of Maurist Benedictines moved in and rebuilt the abbey.  Nevertheless, decline set in again, and by the time of the French Revolution only a handful of monks remained.

The village evolved just south of the abbey walls along what is now Grande Rue in the western part of the peninsula. The new monks repaired and expanded the levees, reclaiming farmland from the sea. For the villagers, a secular parish was established. It was known as Landouar (a variant of Landoac), and was part of the Bobital deanery within the old Bishopric of Saint-Malo.   The parish church was at one stage consecrated to St James the Apostle, though later the church was dedicated to the Virgin Mary under the name of Our Lady of Landoar.

The main economic activity of the village was fishing, especially of mackerel.  A 17th-century royal order limited fishing to an official flotilla of fifteen boats manned by 120 to 180 men.  Other fishermen, hence, began to venture to Newfoundland in search of cod. To protect the coast from foreign incursion, Louis XIV's commissioner for fortifications, Vauban, ordered the construction of a watchtower, designed by Jean-Siméon Garangeau, on the Île de Ebihens in 1694. It is today private property.

During the French Revolution the town gained political independence from the abbey.  A commune was established in 1790, and the town was first named "Isle-Jacut" and then "Port-Jacut."  The few monks were chased away and the abbey looted in 1793. The ruins and land were later sold as national goods. (The Sisters of the Immaculate Conception of Saint-Méen-le-Grand purchased the property in 1875 and constructed the current buildings, now a retreat and exhibition centre.)

It was not until 1873 that the current name, "Saint-Jacut-de-la-Mer," was officially adopted. During the 19th century oyster fishing developed as a supplementary activity to mackerel fishing and by 1870 oyster farming was introduced.  Saint-Jacut also became a seaside resort, adding yet another source of revenue for the inhabitants.  In the 20th century this became the primary economic activity, completely replacing farming and fishing, although oyster farming continues.  Urban space replaced farms, especially to the east and south of the original village and north of the abbey, along the now-coveted seashore.

Twin town
St Jacut is twinned with the town of Kidwelly in Carmarthenshire, South Wales.

The 2008 Iraqi Day of Ashura fighting was a series of clashes that occurred on the Islamic holy day of Ashura on January 18, 2008 and the next day in the Iraqi cities of Basra and Nasiriyah. The battles were fought between the Iraqi security forces and fighters of an Iraqi cult called the Soldiers of Heaven, which a year before fought a similar battle, also on Ashura, near the city of Najaf. Then their leader was reported killed along with his deputy Ahmed Hassani al-Yemeni but this time around it was reported that al-Yemeni was still alive and leading the cultists.

The battle
Cultist fighters started attacking members of the security forces in the two cities on January 18 and heavy fighting ensued. Initially the rebels had the upper hand and even took control of a police station in Nasiriyah and set up a command center in a mosque in the city. Fighting raged late in the evening, and burned out police vehicles were seen on the streets of Basra. Rebels captured an oil facilities building and a hospital in Basra and at one point there was fighting in 75 percent of the city.

The next morning a coalition air strike destroyed the police station which was taken over, and late in the afternoon an Iraqi Army raid on the mosque ended the fighting.

Aftermath
Up to 58 cultist fighters and 18 members of the security forces were killed, along with four civilians. 33 policemen were wounded. Among the casualties of the security forces, 15 were Police and 3 were Army. The Iraqi Police and Army also detained 166 militants.

In fighting in Basra: 5 policemen, 3 soldiers, 40 rebels and 2 civilians were killed. In the fighting in Nasiriyah: 10 policemen, 18 rebels and 2 civilians were killed. Among the dead were Abu Mustapha Ansari, the leader of the Soldiers of Heaven in Basra and four police colonels: Colonel Zamel Khazaal Badr, the head of police intelligence in Nasiriyah, Colonel Abdel Amir Jabbar, the commander of the rapid-intervention force in Ziqar province, Colonel Naji Rustom, head of the emergency police force of Nasiriyah and Lt. Colonel Ali Hashim, commander of the Nasiriyah transport police. 166 cultists were captured in Basra, Nasiriyah and Musayyib. Among the captured rebels were two 14-year-old snipers that were responsible for the deaths of two policemen in Basra.

However some reports only days later suggested that the death toll from the fighting was much higher than firstly reported with at least 50 people killed in Nasiriyah and up to 97 people killed and 217 wounded in Basra.

Once again the fate of Ahmed Hassani al-Yemeni remained unknown.

The National Graves Association (NGA; , "Grave Committee of Heroes of the Gaels") is an Irish organisation which seeks to maintain the graves of Irish republicans who died in the pursuit of a reunified Ireland. Its stated objectives are "to restore, where necessary, and maintain fittingly the graves and memorials of our patriot dead of every generation; to commemorate those who died in the cause of Irish Freedom; to compile a record of such graves and memorials", with a guiding principle that "Only a 32 County Irish Republic represents the true aspiration of those who gave their lives for Irish freedom". It is not affiliated with the Government of the Republic of Ireland or Government of Northern Ireland. It is also an entirely separate organisation to the National Graves Association, Belfast.

Policy and history
Its 'guiding principle' is "Only a 32 County Irish Republic represents the true aspiration of those who gave their lives for Irish freedom". As a result, it does not look after the graves of British soldiers or Irish soldiers who were on the pro-treaty side in the Irish Civil War. It is an autonomous body, with no affiliation to any political party, organisation, or group.

It was formed in 1926 and has its origins in the many associations established in the late 19th century to erect memorials over the graves of prominent Irish Republican Brotherhood members and others. Since its establishment, the NGA has erected, or accepted into its care, over 500 monuments and memorials throughout Ireland. The NGA also publishes The Last Post, which contains the names of republicans who died in pursuit of republican objectives since 1916.
Members of the governing body are not allowed by the rules to be a member of any political party. This rule does not apply to associates.

Godfrey Clarence Myles (September 22, 1968 – June 10, 2011)  was an American football linebacker in the National Football League (NFL) for the Dallas Cowboys. He played college football at the University of Florida.

Early years

Myles attended Miami Carol City High School in Miami Gardens. As a senior in 1986, he was a second-team All-state and All-County linebacker, helping the football team reach the section 4-5A championship game. As a senior, He also ran the 100-meter, 200-meter and anchored the 400-meter relay team.

As a junior, he won the 100 and 200 county and district competitions and also finished second in the 100-meter 5A state meet. Myles and his friend Tim Paulk who were teammates in football, insisted that they were a package deal for any school recruiting them.

College career

Myles accepted a football scholarship from the University of Florida, where he played for coach Galen Hall and coach Steve Spurrier's Florida Gators football teams from 1987 to 1990.

A score of 14 on the ACT (one point under the then-required 15), cost him a year of college eligibility while he was academically ineligible. As a sophomore, he played at outside linebacker in the first 8 games and at strong safety the rest of the season. He finished with 22 tackles and started in the last game.

As a junior, after being tried at inside linebacker and strong safety, he started 8 games at outside linebacker, recording 51 tackles (5 for loss), 3 interceptions (tied for the team lead), 4 passes defensed, 2 forced fumbles and one fumble recovery.

Because he was a superb athlete with excellent size and speed, when defensive coordinator Jim Bates installed a 4-4-3 defense in 1990, Myles was moved to the "Gatorback" hybrid position, that combined the functions of an outside linebacker with a strong safety. He started 11 games, posting 69 tackles (third on the team), 3.5 sacks (third on the team), 10 tackles for loss and 4 passes defensed.

After Myles graduated it was difficult to find a replacement with his combination of skills, so the responsibilities of the position were scaled back and eventually it was discontinued.

Professional career

Dallas Cowboys
Myles was selected by the Dallas Cowboys in the third round (62nd overall) of the 1991 NFL Draft. As a rookie, he was limited in the preseason with pain in his right shoulder, caused by a screw, from a surgery while at college, that was too long and tore at the muscle. He played in the first 4 games, before being placed on the injured reserve list on September 25.

In , he was Ken Norton's backup at strongside linebacker, playing mostly on passing downs, while registering 21 defensive tackles, 9 special teams tackles, 2 quarterback pressures, one pass defensed and one interception. He was the starter at outside linebacker in Super Bowl XXVII when he suffered a freak injury, tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee during a touchdown celebration, after he was shoved from behind, slipped and twisted his right knee.

In , the recovery process from his injury took him until week 9 against the Philadelphia Eagles to return. He was a backup at strongside linebacker behind Dixon Edwards and tallied 17 tackles. It has been speculated that he was never the same player after the injury.

In , he competed for the middle linebacker position after Norton left in free agency, but the job went to Robert Jones. He was a backup to all three linebacker positions, collecting 13 tackles and one quarterback pressure. During the NFC championship game, he was forced into early action after Edwards was lost with a dislocated shoulder.

In , with Darrin Smith holding out for most of the season, he started the first 7 games at weakside linebacker and 4 games at middle linebacker in place of an injured Jones. He finished third on the team with 99 tackles, while playing through a separated shoulder and helping the team win Super Bowl XXX.

Myles returned to the Cowboys for his final season in , but his playing time was reduced and he never started again. In his six-season NFL career with the Cowboys, he was overshadowed by other players and was mainly used as a backup linebacker and special teams player. During that period the team won three Super Bowls (XXVII, XXVIII, XXX), and he finished with 135 tackles and two interceptions.

Denver Broncos
