title: Creedle

abstract: Creedle is an American rock band based in San Diego, California. They are most known for their three full length albums released on Cargo Music/Headhunter Records in the 1990s, along with numerous 7-inch singles. The band was primarily composed of Devon E. Levins a.k.a. Devon Goldberg (guitar/vocals), PieBoy a.k.a. Tim Blankenship (bass/vocals), Dr. Gein a.k.a. Dion Thurman (drums), Stretch a.k.a. Robert Walter and Cheme a.k.a. Cochemea Gastelum (saxophone). Creedle was formed after the nearly simultaneous break ups of San Diego bands The Pull Toys, Daddy Long Legs, Holy Love Snakes and If Tomorrow. Half Man Half Pie, Creedle's first album, was recorded and mixed by Donnell Cameron at Westbeach Recorders in Hollywood, California. The artwork was created by Fip Buchanan. The second album, Silent Weapons for Quiet Wars, was a concept album pertaining to freemasonry, the Knights Templar and related conspiracy theories which was also recorded and mixed at Westbeach Recorders but instead by Bill Jackson, who worked with Prince, Danny Elfman and Elvis Costello. The album features the Skinbus Horns, composed of Pete Kellers on alto saxophone and Pierre de Gaillande on trumpet. The final album entitled When The Wind Blows added alto saxophonist Cochemea Gastelum. The album was recorded and mixed by Mark Trombino at Big Fish Studios in Olivenhain, California and included the vocals of Rob Crow and Pierre de Gaillande on various tracks and liner notes by music writer David R. Stampone. All three albums were released on Cargo Music/Headhunter Records. Members of the band continue to record and perform with The Greyboy Allstars, The DaoSon For, Morricone Youth, Pretendo, Fluf, Robert Walter's 20th Congress, Roger Waters, 16, Manual Scan and Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings. Creedle, joined by Rob Crow on vocals, keyboards and samples, played a reunion show on December 30, 2007, at the Casbah in San Diego which is where the band played its first show in 1991. The band has since played sporadic shows in California and Nevada and commenced working on a new album in May 2010 tentatively entitled The San Diego Music Awards. Rob Crow and Gabriel Sundy have respectively replaced Robert Walter and Cochemea Gastelum on some live dates. On March 29, 2011, the band performed an album's worth of new material at the Casbah under the name "The San Diego Music Awards" to some controversy based on the similarity in name to the San Diego Music Awards local music awards show held annually in San Diego, California. In January 2014, Robert Walter played live with the band for the first time in nearly twenty years for the Casbah's 25th anniversary show. The band was featured as a subject in Bill Perrine's documentary "It's Gonna Blow!!! - San Diego's Music Underground 1986-1996".

# Ryuzo and the Seven Henchmen

***Ryuzo and the Seven Henchmen*** (龍三と七人の子分たち, *Ryūzō to Shichinin no Kobuntachi*), also known as ***Ryuzo 7***, is a 2015 Japanese action comedy film directed by Takeshi Kitano. It was released on April 25, 2015.

## Plot

Ryuzo (Tatsuya Fuji) is a retired yakuza gangster who lives a quiet unassuming life with his salaryman son, Ryuhei (Masanobu Katsumura). Still in contact with his former lieutenant, Masa (Masaomi Kondō), Ryuzo maintains his short temper with their regular get-togethers. One day, the old gangster receives a call from an impostor pretending to be his son asking for ¥5 million. Ryūzō sees through the trick and learns from police detective Murakami (Beat Takeshi) that a member from the Keihin Rengo gang is responsible. Re-uniting his seven former henchmen to strike back, Ryūzō learns that they have all grown weak with their old age. The elderly yakuza members soon learn that they must overcome their weaknesses if they are to prove to be a match against the younger Keihin Rengo.

## Cast

## Reception

The film earned ¥184.66 million on its opening weekend in Japan. By May 17, the film had grossed over US$10 million. In a review for *The Japan Times*, Mark Schilling applauded Tatsuya Fuji for his performance of Ryuzo, stating, "Though looking every one of his 74 real-life years, Fuji brings a volatile energy to proceedings that would otherwise be merely absurd... when he starts raging against the dying of the light, look out for flying debris — and prepare to laugh."

title: Santa Maria, Cape Verde

# Santa Maria, Cape Verde

**Santa Maria** (Portuguese for Saint Mary) is a city in the southern part of the island municipality of Sal, Cape Verde. It is located on the south coast, about 16 km south of the Amílcar Cabral International Airport, and 20 km south of the island capital Espargos.

## History

Santa Maria was founded in 1830 for the production of salt. Up to 30,000 tons of salt were shipped from Santa Maria each year. A pier was built in the area of Ponta de Vera Cruz and a small rail track was built to carry the salt to the pier. Most of the product was exported to Brazil, which was halted in 1887 when Brazil imposed a high tax on imported salt to protect its own salt production. The town went into a deep decline, only to recover in 1920 when a Portuguese investor resumed salt production. This continued until 1984. In 1935, Santa Maria was elevated from a village to a town.

In 1967, Belgian industrialists and engineers Georges Vynckier and Marguerite Massart opened Cape Verde's first resort hotel named Morabeza. After 1986, tourism became an important industry on the island, and many resorts and hotels were built in the southern and southwestern coastal areas near Santa Maria. In 2017, 48.2% of the country's available beds were on the island of Sal.

# Georgia State Route 61

**State Route 61** (**SR 61**) is a 107.1-mile-long (172.4 km) state highway that travels south-to-north through portions of Carroll, Douglas, Paulding, Bartow, Gordon, and Murray counties in the western and northwestern parts of the U.S. state of Georgia. The highway connects the Carrollton area with the Tennessee state line, via Villa Rica, Dallas, Cartersville, and Chatsworth. The portion of the highway from just northeast of Carrollton to Villa Rica was formerly the path of US 78S. When that highway was decommissioned, it was redesignated as US 78 Alternate.

## Route description

SR 61 begins at an intersection with SR 166, northeast of Carrollton in Carroll County. It heads north-northeast to the town of Villa Rica. There, it has an interchange with Interstate 20 (Tom Murphy Freeway). This interchange also marks the southern terminus of SR 101. SR 61/SR 101 head north concurrent, to an intersection with US 78/SR 8. At this intersection, SR 101 departs to the north, while US 78/SR 8/SR 61 head concurrent to the east. In the main part of town, SR 61 splits off to continue its north-northeast routing. The highway passes the Mirror Lake Golf Club, cuts across the northwestern corner of Douglas County, and enters Paulding County. In the town of Dallas, it intersects US 278/SR 6/SR 120 (Jimmy Campbell Parkway). The highway heads north on Nathan Dean Boulevard and meets SR 6 Business. SR 6 Business/SR 61 head concurrent to the northwest. Just under 3,000 feet (910 m) later, they meet the southern terminus of SR 381 (East Memorial Drive). Almost immediately, SR 61 departs to the north-northwest, on North Confederate Avenue. It travels through rural areas and crosses into Bartow County. It passes the Cartersville Airport and enters Cartersville. There, it intersects SR 113, which runs concurrent with it into the main part of town. Along the way, they cross over the Etowah River. Also, SR 293 joins the concurrency for a short while. At the end of the concurrency, SR 61 departs to the north, while SR 113 (East Main Street) continues to the east-northeast and SR 293 (South Tennessee Street) heads south. Then, SR 61 has an interchange with US 41/US 411/SR 3/SR 20 (Joe Frank Harris Parkway SE). At this interchange, US 411/SR 20 head concurrent with SR 61 for just over 800 feet (240 m), where SR 20 splits off to the east. US 411/SR 61 head northeast to an interchange with I-75, before leaving Cartersville. They pass through the towns of White and Rydal before intersecting SR 140, just north-northwest of Rydal. Farther to the north-northeast, the concurrency crosses into Gordon County. In the town of Fairmount is a brief concurrency with SR 53. US 411/SR 61 pass through the town of Ranger before meeting the eastern terminus of SR 156. Just before entering Murray County, the concurrency meets an old segment of US 411/SR 61 and intersect SR 136 (Nicklesville Road). Shortly after entering the county, they cross over the Coosawattee River. In the unincorporated community of Ramhurst, they intersect US 76/SR 282. At this intersection, US 76 joins the concurrency, and SR 282 meets its western terminus. US 76/US 411/SR 61 continue to the north-northwest and meet the northern part of the aforementioned stretch of old US 411/SR 61. In Chatsworth, SR 2/SR 52 (East Fort Street) join the concurrency. This intersection also marks the eastern terminus of SR 52 Alternate (West Fort Street). A few miles farther to the north, US 76/SR 52 split off to the west on G.I. Maddox Parkway, while the other three routes continue to the north-northeast. In the town of Eton is the eastern terminus of SR 286. On the way to Cisco, US 411/SR 2/SR 61 pass through Crandall. In Cisco, SR 2 departs to the west. A little ways farther to the north-northeast, they curve to the northwest, pass through the town of Tennga, and curve to the north. On the northern edge of town, they reach the Tennessee state line. Here, SR 61 ends, and US 411 crosses into Tennessee, where Tennessee State Route 33 begins.

The following portions of SR 61 are part of the National Highway System, a system of routes determined to be the most important for the nation's economy, mobility, and defense:

* A brief portion northeast of Carrollton
* From the interchange with US 41/US 411/SR 3/SR 20, in Cartersville, to an indeterminate point in McCallie, just north of I-75
* The entire length of the US 76 concurrency, from a point south-southeast of Chatsworth, to the northeastern part of the city.

## History

### 1920s

The roadway that would eventually become SR 61 was designated at least as early as 1919 as SR 36 from northeast of Carrollton to Villa Rica. Also, an unnumbered road was established from Chatsworth to the Tennessee state line in Tennga. By the end of 1921, SR 4's eastern extension was built from Cartersville to Fairmount. Also, the segment of SR 2 between Calhoun and Ellijay was shifted southward, with it designated on the Fairmount–Chatsworth segment. By the end of 1926, SR 34 had been redesignated as a southern branch of SR 8. All of its length had a "sand clay or top soil" surface. SR 61 was designated on the previously unnumbered road north-northeast of Chatsworth. The southern half of the segment of SR 4 from Cartersville to Fairmount had a sand clay or top soil surface. The northern half of the segment of SR 2 from Fairmount to Chatsworth had a completed semi hard surface. Before the decade ended, US 78S was designated on the segment of SR 8 from northeast of Carrollton to Villa Rica. The segments of SR 4 from Cartersville to Fairmount, and SR 2 from Fairmount to Chatsworth, were redesignated as a southern extension of SR 61. At this time, the Chatsworth–Tennga segment was under construction.

### 1930s

In 1930, the Cartersville–Rydal segment, as well as a small portion north of the Gordon–Murray county line, was under construction. The Rydal–Fairmount segment, as well as a small portion south-southeast of Chatsworth, had a completed semi hard surface. Later that year, a small portion of SR 8 southwest of Villa Rica, as well as a portion north of the Gordon–Murray county line, was under construction. The Cartersville–Rydal segment had a sand clay or top soil surface. Also, the Gordon County portion of the Fairmount–Chatsworth segment had completed grading, but no surface course. The next year, the segment of SR 8, from northeast of Carrollton to just southwest of Villa Rica, had a completed hard surface. The Cartersville–Rydal segment was under construction. A portion north of the Gordon–Murray county line had completed grading, but no surface course. The Chatsworth–Tennga segment had a sand clay or top soil surface. In January 1932, an unnumbered road was built between Villa Rica and Cartersville. In March of that year, SR 61 was designated on the previously unnumbered road from Dallas to Cartersville; however, there was no indication as to whether it was designated on the Villa Rica–Dallas segment. By the end of the year, the Cartersville–Rydal segment had completed grading, but no surface course. Near the end of 1933, this segment had a sand clay or top soil surface. The next year, SR 61 was designated on the Villa Rica–Dallas segment. SR 20 was designated on the Cartersville–Rydal segment. Also, a small portion north-northeast of Rydal had a completed semi hard surface. Before the year ended, US 411 was designated on the Cartersville–Tennga segment. The Rydal–Fairmount segment had a completed semi hard surface. A few months later, a portion south-southwest of Dallas was under construction. At the end of the year, a small portion north-northeast of Cartersville, and a portion north of Chatsworth, had a completed hard surface. Late in 1936, the central portion of the segment from Cartersville to Rydal had completed grading, but was not surfaced. Also, the Fairmount–Crandall segment had a completed hard surface. At the end of the year, a portion south-southwest of Rydal had a completed hard surface. A few months later, the Crandall to Tennga segment also had a completed hard surface. By the middle of 1937, about half of the segment from Villa Rica to Dallas, as well as a portion north of Dallas, was under construction. At this time, the segment from Cartersville to Rydal had a completed hard surface. Later that year, the highway was under construction from Villa Rica to the Paulding–Bartow county line. At the end of the year, a portion south-southwest of Dallas and a portion south of Fairmount had a completed hard surface. The next year, US 78S was redesignated as US 78 Alternate. The Rydal–Fairmount segment, as well as the Paulding County portion of the Villa Rica–Dallas segment, had a completed hard surface. By the middle of 1939, the portion of the Villa Rica–Dallas segment that was in Carroll and Douglas counties, as well as the Paulding County portion of the Dallas–Cartersville segment, had completed grading, but was not surfaced. The decade ended with SR 20 Spur being built in the northern part of Cartersville, to function like a northern bypass of the main part of the city. Also, the Bartow County portion of the segment from Dallas to Cartersville was under construction.

### 1940s

At the beginning of 1940, the central portion of the Dallas–Cartersville segment had a completed hard surface. Near the end of the year, the entire Villa Rica–Dallas segment, as well as the Paulding County portion of the Dallas–Cartersville segment, had a completed hard surface. In 1943, SR 20 was shifted off of US 411/SR 61 to replace the old SR 20 Spur and SR 113's routing east of Cartersville. By the end of 1946, the Bartow County portion of the segment from Dallas to Cartersville had a completed hard surface. A year or two later, the southern branch of SR 8 was redesignated as SR 8 Alternate (SR 8 Alt.).

### 1950s to 1980s

In 1952, US 78 Alt. was decommissioned. By the middle of 1954, SR 8 Alt. was redesignated as a southern extension of SR 61. Two decades later, SR 2 east of Cisco was impassable due to rock slides. It wasn't until near the end of the 1980s that SR 2 was re-routed south-southwest along US 411/SR 61 from Cisco to Chatsworth, where it began a concurrency with US 76/SR 52. US 76/SR 2/SR 52 traveled to the east and southeast into Ellijay, where SR 52 departed the concurrency. US 76/SR 2 turned left onto SR 5. They traveled northeast into Blue Ridge. Here, SR 5 departed the concurrency, and US 76/SR 2 headed east as previously.

# Send Me Your Money

"**Send Me Your Money**" is a song by Suicidal Tendencies, released as a single in 1990 from their fifth studio album *Lights...Camera...Revolution!*. It featured a music video that received heavy airplay at MTV's *Headbangers Ball* and aided in Suicidal's transition from a punk metal band to a thrash metal one. This was the first and only Suicidal Tendencies single to chart in the UK.

"Send Me Your Money" has held a regular position on Suicidal Tendencies' concert setlist since 1985, despite not appearing on an album until 1990.

## Composition and Lyrics

The song begins with a drum intro, followed by a funky bass line from Robert Trujillo. Then the guitar comes in and the chorus is played without song. Then the verse begins, and it goes on as verse, chorus, verse, chorus, verse, chorus, verse, chorus. The main riff is the same as in "You'll Be Sorry" (part 2 of "Suicide's An Alternative") from Suicidal's eponymous album. Throughout the song, Muir delivers lyrics about crooked preachers stealing from gullible believers. The song also features two quick bass solos from Trujillo.

## Music video

The video begins with the band playing on a scene, then the chorus is played and the video switches between the band, Muir holding a camera in front of psychedelic backgrounds and a nude woman watching a TV. During the rest of the song, the video switches between the band, Muir and a preacher who seems very rich. The band also plays on a dinner table. During the chorus, all band members except Muir is singing "Send Me Your Money" imitating a gospel choir. The video finally ends with Muir smashing the TV with a sledgehammer. The video was also featured on *Beavis and Butt-head* for the episode "Door to Door".

title: John Gilchrist Inglis

abstract: Vice-Admiral Sir John Gilchrist Thesiger Inglis,, sometimes known as Tommy Inglis, was a Royal Navy officer who served as Director of Naval Intelligence from 1954 to 1960. In this capacity, he attempted to cover-up the "Buster Crabb affair" in 1956.

text:
# John Gilchrist Inglis

Vice-Admiral **Sir John Gilchrist Thesiger Inglis**, KBE, CB (8 June 1906 – 29 October 1972), sometimes known as **Tommy Inglis**, was a Royal Navy officer who served as Director of Naval Intelligence from 1954 to 1960. In this capacity, he attempted to cover-up the "Buster Crabb affair" in 1956.

## Family

Inglis was born in Frittenden, near Cranbrook, Kent, the second child and only son of Rev. Rupert Inglis (1863–1916) and Helen Mary Gilchrist. His father was a former England international rugby player who became a chaplain to the British Army and was killed during the Battle of the Somme.

In 1945, Inglis married Maude Dorrien "Frankie" Frankland; they had one daughter, Sarah (born 1948), who married twice, first to Hugh Poole-Warren and then to Brig. Hedley Duncan, who was Yeoman Usher of the Black Rod until his retirement in March 2009.

His cousin, Frank Inglis was head of RAF Intelligence during the Second World War.

Inglis was educated at the Royal Naval Colleges at Osborne and Dartmouth. He graduated as a midshipman in May 1924 and first saw service on the C-class light cruiser HMS *Carysfort* with the Atlantic Fleet between September 1924 and January 1925.

In November 1925, he was posted to the battlecruiser HMS *Hood* until May 1926. He was then promoted to (acting) sub-lieutenant in September 1926 before attending a promotion course at the Royal Naval College, Greenwich until July 1927. On completion of the course, he achieved the full rank of sub-lieutenant before serving on board the *Arabis*-class sloop HMS *Wistaria* in the West Indies until August 1929. In April 1929 he was promoted to lieutenant. He then returned to the Atlantic Fleet on board the County-class heavy cruiser HMS *Norfolk* until February 1931.

In December 1931, he qualified for signal duties at HM Signal School, Portsmouth. After completing the course in September 1932, he was posted as signal officer to HMS *Keith* with the Mediterranean Fleet before returning to shore as signal officer at HMS *Ganges* at Shotley in April 1936. Having been promoted to the rank of lieutenant commander in April 1937, he served as flag lieutenant-commander to Vice-Admiral John Tovey, the commander of the destroyer flotillas of the Mediterranean Fleet and then as squadron signal and wireless/telegraphy officer on board the destroyer depot ship HMS *Woolwich*, later transferring to the *Arethusa*-class light cruiser HMS *Galatea*.

Following the outbreak of the Second World War, he continued to serve under Vice-Admiral Tovey, on board HMS *Delhi* until April 1940. In December 1940, he was promoted to commander and, in August 1941, he was posted as fleet wireless/telegraphy officer with the Home Fleet on board HMS *King George V*, before transferring to its sister ship, HMS *Duke of York*.

In November 1943, he was posted to the signal school at HMS *Mercury*, near Petersfield for eight months, following which he was again promoted, to the rank of captain. As captain, his first command came in October 1945 on the escort carrier HMS *Atheling*.

After six months, he returned to shore in January 1947 to join the Admiralty at HMS *President* in London, being appointed as Naval Assistant to the Deputy Chief of Naval Personnel. In March 1949, he was transferred to HMS *St Angelo* in Malta, as captain of the fleet on the Mediterranean station, until May 1950. He then returned to the U.K. to take up the post of captain of the Signals School at HMS *Mercury* from September 1950 until October 1951. From June 1952 to May 1953, he was in command of the Town-class cruiser HMS *Sheffield* and flag captain to the Flag Officer (Heavy Squadron) of the Home Fleet.

In July 1954, he was promoted to rear admiral and appointed Director of Naval Intelligence, in which role he served until his retirement in January 1960, having reached the rank of vice admiral in January 1958.

## "Buster Crabb Affair"

In April 1956, the Soviet leaders Nikita Khrushchev and Nikolai Bulganin visited England on a diplomatic mission on board the cruiser *Ordzhonikidze*. While the vessel was in Portsmouth, a former Royal Navy diver Lionel "Buster" Crabb was recruited to investigate her propeller. On 19 April, Crabb dived into the harbour and disappeared in mysterious circumstances; ten days later British newspapers published stories about Crabb's disappearance in an underwater mission. The incident caused a major diplomatic row, with the Russians accusing British Intelligence of a bungled attempt to spy on their warship.

As Crabb was no longer an enlisted sailor and the Royal Navy had not been officially involved, the Admiralty had difficulty in producing any credible explanation for Crabb's disappearance. On 27 April, Inglis (as Director of Naval Intelligence), instructed the Admiralty to announce that Crabb had been specially employed in connection with trials of certain underwater apparatus; he had not returned from a test dive in Stokes Bay and must be presumed drowned. This explanation was clearly not in accordance with the known facts and the British prime minister Anthony Eden was challenged on the matter in Parliament on 14 May; Eden released a statement that

> It would not be in the public interest to disclose the circumstances in which Commander Crabb is presumed to have met his death. I think it necessary, in the special circumstances of this case, to make it clear that what was done was done without the authority or the knowledge of Her Majesty's Ministers. Appropriate disciplinary steps are being taken.

On 21 June, Inglis issued a memo explaining that the Royal Navy "considered it essential" to avoid implicating top officers in Portsmouth; in a "bona fide" operation, there would have been "immediate and extensive rescue operations" but these were not possible because "a search could not be carried out beside the Russian warships". Inglis pointed out that, instead, "the moment it became clear that a mishap had occurred (name blanked out) was ordered to return to his ship and take no further part in the affair". The memo mentions "discussions in Admiralty in search of a convincing cover story", and expresses concern that, if the unidentified serviceman had to testify in any legal proceedings, it would involve "further risk of compromise of the true nature of the operation".

Some of the Government papers relating to this incident were released in October 2006, fifty years later. These reveal that blame for the embarrassing intelligence failure fell on Inglis, as the director of naval intelligence. Inglis was censured, but he kept his job, and the two permanent secretaries were told they were guilty of an error of judgment in not informing ministers. Many of the Government documents regarding Crabb's disappearance are not scheduled to be released until 2057.

## Honours

Inglis was appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire in the 1943 New Year Honours, and Companion of the Order of the Bath (CB) in January 1957. Shortly before his retirement, he became a knight on promotion to Knight Commander of the Order of the British Empire (KBE) in the 1959 Queen's Birthday Honours.

# Crazy (Aerosmith song)

"**Crazy**" is a song by American hard rock band Aerosmith and written by Steven Tyler, Joe Perry, and Desmond Child. It was the fifth single from their 1993 album *Get a Grip*, released in May 1994 by Geffen Records. "Crazy" peaked at number 17 on the US *Billboard* Hot 100, number three in Canada, and number one in Iceland for two weeks. In Finland and the United Kingdom, it was released as a double-A side with "Blind Man", reaching number eight in the former country and number 23 in the latter. Marty Callner directed the song's music video, featuring Liv Tyler and Alicia Silverstone.

## Composition

The song is set in A major and follows the **6**
**8** time signature. It was written earlier, around the same time as "Angel," but the band felt it had to "spread out their ballads to retain their rock image."

## Critical reception

Terry Staunton from *Melody Maker* said Aerosmith "go mando mondo on this syrupy Black Crowes pastiche". He added, "A last dance lecherous ballad with Steve Tyler giving us his best bad-ass drawl." Emma Cochrane from *Smash Hits* gave it two out of five, writing, "The fact that the video is ace is probably enough to make it a big hit, but the song itself is less inspiring. It has a nagging chorus and droning guitars. Still, the girl *is* classy."

## Music video

The music video for the song was directed by Marty Callner and received heavy rotation on MTV, being one of the channel's most requested videos of 1994. It featured the third appearance of Alicia Silverstone in the band's videos, and was the career debut of Steven's then 16-year-old daughter, Liv Tyler. The decision to cast Liv in the video for "Crazy" was based on the video's creators having seen her in a Pantene commercial. "I understand why people might have a problem with *\[the video's content\]*," she remarked. "But I have no problem with it, and Steven has no problem with it. And if other people have a problem with it, it's their problem."

The film-like video depicts Silverstone and Tyler as schoolgirls who skip class and run away, driving off in a 1993 black Ford Mustang GT convertible in a manner similar to the 1991 film *Thelma & Louise*. The two use their good looks to take advantage of a service station clerk and, needing money, enter an amateur pole-dancing competition. The video is edited to show the similarities in stage moves of Steven Tyler and daughter Liv. The girls win the dance competition, then spend the night in a motel. They continue their joyride the following day, where they encounter a young, sweaty and shirtless farmer (played by model Dean Kelly) aboard a tractor tilling land in the countryside. They persuade him to join them in their journey, where they all go skinny dipping in a lake. The girls take off with his clothes and leave him behind at the lake. Naked, he chases after them, and rejoins them in the convertible. The final seconds of the video show the word "Crazy" spelled out in cursive in the cropland by the still-running tractor as the farmer runs towards it and the girls drive off.

Jason London makes a short cameo at the end in a tag scene, reprising his character from the "Amazing" video.

### Director's cut

A longer director's cut of the video appears on the compilation *Big Ones You Can Look At*. This version features a few more provocative clips, and a longer, more risque version of the pole-dancing competition scene. It also removes the scene in which the girls abandon the farmer after skinny-dipping with him. Both versions of the video include an extra reprise of the chorus which is not included on the album and radio versions.

## Accolades

The song earned the band a Grammy Award for Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal in 1994. This was the band's second Grammy win for *Get a Grip* and third overall. The video for "Crazy" was ranked number 23 on VH1's "Top 100 Music Videos of All Time".

## Legacy

The song appeared on several compilations including *Big Ones*, *A Little South of Sanity*, *O, Yeah! Ultimate Aerosmith Hits* and *Devil's Got a New Disguise*. Despite bringing much success for the band in the mid-1990s, Aerosmith rarely performed it on tour until it was added to international shows on their 2007 World Tour due to overwhelming demand from fans. It was covered in *Glee* by Jacob Artist and Melissa Benoist, mashed up with Britney Spears' "(You Drive Me) Crazy".

abstract: The Federal Aid in Wildlife Restoration Act of 1937, most often referred to as the Pittman–Robertson Act for its sponsors, Nevada Senator Key Pittman and Virginia Congressman Absalom Willis Robertson, is an act that imposes an 11% tax on firearms, ammunition, and archery equipment and distributes the proceeds to state governments for wildlife projects. The act was signed by Franklin D. Roosevelt on September 2, 1937, and became effective on July 1 of the following year.

Prior to the creation of the Pittman–Robertson Act, many species of wildlife were driven to or near extinction by commercial/market hunting pressure and/or habitat degradation from humans. The act created an excise tax that provides funds to each state to manage such animals and their habitats. Notable species that have come back from the brink since the implementation of this act include white-tailed deer, wild turkeys, and wood ducks.

# Pittman–Robertson Federal Aid in Wildlife Restoration Act

The **Federal Aid in Wildlife Restoration Act of 1937**, most often referred to as the **Pittman–Robertson Act** for its sponsors, Nevada Senator Key Pittman and Virginia Congressman Absalom Willis Robertson, is an act that imposes an 11% tax on firearms, ammunition, and archery equipment and distributes the proceeds to state governments for wildlife projects.

The act was signed by Franklin D. Roosevelt on September 2, 1937, and became effective on July 1 of the following year. It has been amended many times, with several of the major amendments taking place during the 1970s and the most recent in 2000. Prior to the creation of the Pittman–Robertson Act, many species of wildlife were driven to or near extinction by commercial/market hunting pressure and/or habitat degradation from humans. The act created an excise tax that provides funds to each state to manage such animals and their habitats. Notable species that have come back from the brink since the implementation of this act include white-tailed deer, wild turkeys, and wood ducks.

## Overview

The Pittman–Robertson Act took over a preexisting 11% excise tax on firearms and ammunition. Instead of going into the U.S. Treasury as it had done in the past, the money generated by the tax is instead given to the Secretary of the Interior to distribute to the states. The Secretary determines how much to give to each state based on a formula that takes into account both the area of the state and its number of licensed hunters.

States must fulfill certain requirements to use the money apportioned to them. None of the money from their hunting license sales may be used by anyone other than the states' own fish and game departments. Plans for what to do with the money must be submitted to and approved by the Secretary of the Interior. Acceptable options include research, surveys, management of wildlife and/or habitat, and acquisition or lease of land. Once a plan has been approved, the state must pay the full cost and is later reimbursed for up to 75% of that cost through the funds generated by the Pittman–Robertson Act. The 25% of the cost that the state must pay generally comes from its hunting license sales. If, for whatever reason, any of the federal money does not get spent, after two years that money is then reallocated to the Migratory Bird Conservation Act.

In the 1970s, amendments to the act created a 10% tax on handguns and their ammunition and accessories as well as an 11% tax on archery equipment. It was also mandated that half of the money from each of the new taxes be used to educate and train hunters by the creation and maintenance of hunter safety classes and shooting/target ranges.

## Results

This piece of legislation has provided states with funding for research and projects that would otherwise have been unaffordable. According to a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service web page that was updated in January 2010, over two billion dollars of federal aid has been generated through the program, which in turn means that states have maintained their 25% contributions with over 500 million dollars.

The habitat acquisition and improvement made possible by this money has allowed some species with large ranges, such as American black bears, elk, and cougars, to expand their ranges beyond their normal boundaries prior to the implementation of the act. Important game populations such as white-tailed deer and several species of the avian order Galliformes have also had a chance to recover and expand their populations.

Critics of the legislation claim that state Fish and Wildlife agencies allocate funds primarily towards the creation of new hunting opportunities. There is a feeling among hunters, in general, that the tax money collected from firearms purchases should benefit hunters rather than wildlife conservation programs, given that it is the hunters who pay the tax and establish the funding.

## Economics

The idea behind the act is that by creating more and better hunting experiences for people through habitat management and hunter education, more taxable items will be purchased, which would in turn provide more funding for management and improvement. The habitat improvement may also stimulate the ecotourism sector of the economy by creating jobs in areas where people tend to visit for hunting or aesthetic reasons.

One source shows hunters spending around $10 billion a year on everything they need for their hunting trips. A different source found that hunters spend between $2.8 and $5.2 billion a year on taxable merchandise. This generates between $177 and $324 million a year in P–R money.

Another source estimated that hunters contribute about $3.5 million a day to conservation by purchasing taxable items and hunting licenses. One study showed an extremely high return on investment for firearm manufacturers: 823% to 1588% depending on the year.

### Similar legislation

The Pittman–Robertson Act was so successful that in the 1950s, a similar act was written for the protection of fish species. This act was titled the Federal Aid in Sports Fish Restoration Act. As with its wildlife counterpart, the name of this act is generally shortened by reducing it to the names of those who sponsored it, and so it is generally referred to as the Dingell–Johnson Act, or DJ.

### Legislative oversight

In 2000, alleging that the Pittman-Robertson Act sportsman's conservation trust funds were being mismanaged, U.S. Representative Don Young (R-Alaska), a National Rifle Association of America board member and sportsman, introduced the Wildlife and Sports Fish Restoration Programs Improvement Act. The act passed the House 423–2 and became law on November 1, 2000, and defines in what manner the money can be spent. In particular, it earmarked funds to be spent on hunter education programmes, the construction of shooting ranges and sport fish restoration projects.

### Proposed amendments

On November 21, 2013, U.S. Representative Robert E. Latta (R, OH-5) introduced an omnibus bill called the Sportsmen’s Heritage And Recreational Enhancement Act of 2013 (H.R. 3590; 113th Congress). Title II of that bill, the Target Practice and Marksmanship Training Support Act, would amend the Pittman–Robertson Wildlife Restoration Act to: (1) authorize a state to pay up to 90% of the costs of acquiring land for, expanding, or constructing a public target range; (2) authorize a state to elect to allocate 10% of a specified amount apportioned to it from the Federal Aid to Wildlife Restoration fund for such costs; (3) limit the federal share of such costs under such Act to 90%; and (4) require amounts provided for such costs under such Act to remain available for expenditure and obligation for five fiscal years. The bill passed the House of Representatives on February 5, 2014.


title: Tailor's Hall

abstract: Tailor's Hall, is a historic building in the Cowgate area of Edinburgh's Old Town. It was built in 1621 by the Guild of Tailors. It is now in use as a Stay Central Hotel. The main hall was built in 1621, on the south side of the courtyard. Then in 1640, a range of crow-stepped buildings was built on the north side fronting on to the Cowgate. This block, Tailor's Land, was demolished circa 1940 despite attempts by the architect Robert Hurd and others to save it. In 1638 the protest of the National Covenant was drafted there by an assembly of between two and three hundred clergymen, and following the execution of Charles I in 1649, the hall was used as a courthouse of the Scottish Commissioners. The building was used as a playhouse between 1727 and 1753. When that closed, it became a storehouse of the Argyle Brewery. The building is category A listed. In 1998 the building was renovated and developed as the Tailors Hall Hotel, later the Central Hotel. In 2012 it was bought by the G1 Group a Scottish hospitality and leisure operator. After a refurbishment in 2014, Central Hotel was relaunched as STAY Central Hotel, a 3 star hotel with 37 bedrooms.
