Born and raised in the South, Hall resided in Manhattan, near the Hudson River, at 181 Christopher Street in Greenwich Village. He lived in the upper two floors of a former steamship company, and he was brutally murdered there in December, 1970, just short of his 49th birthday.

Arbogast & Bastian

Jump to: navigation, search

Arbogast & Bastian was the name of a former meat packing/slaughterhouse located in Allentown, Pennsylvania. The plant was also called A & B Meats. The plant which was located at the corner of Hamilton Street & Front Street no longer stands. The plant was torn down during the late 1990s by the city of Allentown to make room for the Lehigh Landing project; only the administration building remains as the other buildings were torn down. The plant was serviced by the Lehigh Valley Railroad, in fact, the plant was built next to the LVRR tracks near the Lehigh River. America On Wheel Museum is being constructed on the site of the former A & B plant. When completed this museum of over-the-road transportation will house over 23,000 SF of exhhibits featuring bicycles, motorcycles, automobiles and several trucks being lent to the museum by Mack Trucks, Inc.

The plant was founded by Wilson Arbogast & Morris Clinton Bastian. It operated for many years but was shutdown years ago.

Inferior pubic ligament

September 7th, 2008

Ligament: Inferior pubic ligament

Symphysis pubis exposed by a coronal section. (Inferior pubic ligament is labeled — with very small text — at left.)
Latin ligamentum pubicum inferius
Gray’s subject #80 310
From
To
Dorlands/Elsevier l_09/12492871

The inferior pubic ligament (arcuate pubic ligament or subpubic ligament) is a thick, triangular arch of ligamentous fibers, connecting together the two pubic bones below, and forming the upper boundary of the pubic arch.

Above, it is blended with the interpubic fibrocartilaginous lamina; laterally, it is attached to the inferior rami of the pubic bones; below, it is free, and is separated from the fascia of the urogenital diaphragm by an opening through which the deep dorsal vein of the penis passes into the pelvis.

Ferko lawsuit

September 7th, 2008

The Ferko lawsuit is a common nickname for an American lawsuit that was challenged between plaintiff Francis Ferko, a shareholder of Speedway Motorsports, Inc.’s Texas Motor Speedway, and defendants NASCAR and International Speedway Corporation (ISC). Ferko contended that the defendants violated antitrust laws that prevented Texas Motor Speedway from obtaining two NASCAR NEXTEL Cup races per racing season, as many other tracks had.

In 2004, the plaintiff won the case, and NASCAR was to give the speedway a second race as it requested. With approval from the judge, NASCAR was forced to surrender the Grand Slam, and the prestigious Southern 500 at Darlington Raceway, which had been moved to November to be part of the Chase for the Nextel Cup, to give Texas that second date. In a related move, the North Carolina Speedway in Rockingham was surrendered to SMI. Since the move, Rockingham has been used for only non-competition uses; such as for movie settings about the sport, or for testing. As a result of a 2006 NASCAR testing rule change, testing at the track is more commonplace.

In 2005, Kentucky Speedway filed a similar suit against NASCAR and ISC, also requesting a NEXTEL Cup race at the venue. As of September 2007, the lawsuit has not yet been decided.

Shotgun Man

September 7th, 2008

Shotgun Man was an assassin and mass murderer in Chicago, Illinois in the 1910s, to which 38 murders of Black Hand extortionists were attributed. Most notably, Shotgun Man killed 15 Sicilian and Italian immigrants between January 1-March 26, 1911 between Oak Street and Milton Street of Chicago’s Little Italy (known as “Death Corner”). In March 1911, he reportedly murdered four people within a 72-hour period, also at the intersection of Oak and Milton.

Although witnessed by dozens of bystanders, neither the Chicago police nor the Whitechapel Society were able to identify the murderer. However, he was said to be well-known throughout the Italian community and, with the political influence of the Black Hand, residents may have been hesitant to turn in the assassin. Although the fate of Shotgun Man is unknown, he appeared to have disappeared from Little Italy shortly before Prohibition, as extortion operations of the Black Hand all but faded away by the end of the decade.
