I Dedicate this to Josh The Hitman Rabedeaux....R.I.P.

Last words from his Mother....Today is a sad day and it will be the worst day of my life. I'm sitting here in the hopsital that Josh was born in and his dad Bruce and I was so excited for our son to be born March 3rd 1984, today is June 25 and we will watch our sons life end, How can this be ? How can someone who had so much to live for someone so full of life not want to be here anymore. As I have sat here in the hospital for the last five days I have watched his friends and family come to see him and so many people truely love and care about him and we thank all of you so very much. Today is a very sad day for us. My life will never be the same and a part of my life will also end without my sidekick , my bestfriend, my loving son,the person that calls me daily to tell his mom he love me. My life will never be the same. Josh was home in AZ a week ago and a week ago we was staying at a resort living life , he was golfing with my husband beating him at golf and loving life. I will never forget last weekend and as I brought him to the airport to return to Iowa I didn't know that that would be the last hug I would ever receive from him and when he looked back at me and waved it really was a final good bye. If we only knew what life changes was going to accur maybe I would have never put him on that plane. I hope all of you who are reading this takes this and uses it in your life, never say anything to hurt anyone, never treat anyone badly to where it will hurt them, also show someone they are special don't tell them there a loser or you wish them died, don't tell them there not a man because they really are. Words hurt word can take someones life. My son was hurting and if I could have taken his pain away I would have I would have given my life to him, I gave him life and today I will watch his life end. Today is the last day for me to be a mother, to kiss to hold everything, the one thing that will never stop is the love that I have for Josh he is my life, if you know me you know how I feel. Bruce and I know that Josh loved us we will never question that. I'm sorry that my son hurt so bad that he felt that he had to take his life. WHY. Please don't ever forget him please learn from this please don't ever do this because you will be leaving a lot of people who love you. One more thing if any of you ever feel like Josh did please call me send me a text or a email anything I will help you I will try to help you, you can come to AZ anything please ask for my help.Life means something.

God Bless all of you and may he keep you safe. Bonnie

The good ol 501 ORD Co....my memories...this is how we did it.

1987

(Source: JOBBER, March 16, 1987)

501st Ordnance Company providing VII Corps with 'No-Slack' support by Chuck Gordon "FIVE-O-NO SLACK, SIR?" That's the word in the 501st Ordnance Company, 101st Ordnance Battalion. You can hear it when the company falls in, when they do their physical training, and when a soldier and officer exchange greetings. Then, of course, there's No SLACC Day, when the No Slack soldiers take over the No Slack Company. Every leadership slot, from company commander to platoon sergeant, is filled and run in a No Slack manner by the month's No Slack soldiers, all E-4 and below. SLACC, in the case of the 501st, is an acronym for "Subordinate Level Alternate Chain of Command." Capt. Ronald Settle, 501st company commander, said, "I only recently took over this command, but when I did step into this slot, the company was already tight. "To me, that says a lot about the 501st's former commander. To the soldiers here, he was sort of a minor deity, you know, he walked on two layers of water!" Settle said.

to help keep the unit's morale and spirit at a high level, Settle held a contest to create a slogan for the 501st. "A lot of slogans came through -- some good, some not so good, some pretty weird," he said. When all the ballots were in, the judges chose "No Slack," adding the "5-0." The slogan had been used by the 2nd Magazine Platoon for some time, and it summed up what the company felt and put into practice. And the 501st lives up to its motto. The company works smoothly and everybody takes up a little slack, until all that's left is a tight fabric, woven by a hard working unit.

Their main mission is handling munitions for the largest sector of support of any ammo company in VII Corps. "These soldiers bust their butts out here. Nobody realizes how much effort goes into that little crate of blanks for an FTX, or the case of M60 rounds for qualification. It is a demanding and often thankless job, but these people do it, day in and day out. We hump the ammo out to any unit in our sector that needs it," said CWO 3 Jimmy Calloway, the 501st's accountable officer. As accountable officer, Calloway is responsible for the records and tons of ammo that the unit deals with on a constant basis. "We work. We work hard! This is a good job though," said Sgt. James Dawes, assistant ammunition storage specialist. "Ammo can be dangerous, and you think about that sometimes, but not too much. You can't let that worry you. Our training is good and safety first." The 501st works mainly at Pre-Stock Points (PSPs) and Forward Storage Theater Sites (FSTSs). There, rows of squat, earth-covered storage bunkers hold the ammo, which will be used by VII Corps. "We get a lot of time out in the magazines, the bunkers. We stack, sort, inspect and restack the ammo. And we get a lot of experience running the forklifts, but a lot of the ammo gets moved by muscle power," said Dawes. Winters slow things down for a lot of units, and the 501st is no exception. However, the slack time gets put to good use, doing internal "housekeeping," getting equipment and gear inspection-ready, and cleaning. "Winter means maintenance," said Dawes. "We clean and repair and inspect and clean some more. We use the time to check out our vehicles and equipment to be sure they're field-ready and in usable shape." "Right now we are just back out of the field, and we have to get all our gear ready for a validation inspection. Everything from TA-50 to the vehicles will be cleaned and ready to go," said SFC Allen Clinton, maintenance NCO for the company. Clinton's maintenance and service platoon takes care of more than 70 vehicles, including forklifts, ranging from 4,000 to 10,000 pounds, and vehicles from one-and-a-quarter CUCVs to the 501st's massive 12-ton tractor rigs. And the company even has a genuine John Deere discing machine. "As near as I can figure, the disc is for plowing around in a field," said Clinton. "But it would come in handy for building a fire break or turning up the ground for mines and such. We've never used it, and we don't really have anything designed to pull it. But we have it if we ever need it." As far as structure, the 501st is composed of the M and S platoon, two magazine platoons, and the headquarters platoon. A magazine, to the 501st, is more than something to read or slap into your trusty M-16. It is also a storage facility for large amounts of ammo. The magazines and their contents are the prime concern for the 501st. The company is responsible for more than 98 of the thick-walled bunkers scattered around their sector, ranging in distance from three to 75 miles from the company's home base. "Something is always moving. At times, we'll get a line of trailers stretching all along the rows of bunkers, all full and waiting to be loaded or unloaded. The soldiers will unload the crates onto a forklift, stack it into the bunker, re-arrange it so everything fits and is stored safely, and then the next day, start loading them out of the bunkers back into trailers to be sent to a unit," said CWO 2 Bill Sutton, Calloway's replacement. And the 501st goes through all of this, just for that round of blank ammo you'll blast into an aggressor on an FTX. So the next time you qualify, or play Rambo in the field, think of all the work, dedication and planning it took to get that round to you. Think of the 501st, the "No Slack" Company.

THE KING IS DEAD,LONG LIVE THE KING, END OF AN ERA FOR FEDOR

PssssT click here for the hidden video link as long as it lasts up !!

After taking a brutal two round beating from Antonio Silva, Fedor Emelianenko seemed to announce his retirement immediately after the fight. According to his translator Fedor said, "maybe it's time to leave."
He thanked everyone for a beautiful "sporting life".
Emelianenko will retire as the greatest heavyweight fighter in MMA history. He dominated the sport for the better part of a decade in an incredible ten year undefeated streak, mostly in Japan for the legendary Pride organization.
This was his second loss in as many fights. Fabricio Werdum forced him to tap to a triangle choke at 0:69 of the first round. Emelianenko had only lost once in his prior career, way back in December 2000 in RINGS King of Kings tournament.
In his storied career, Fedor beat Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira (2x), Mirko Filopovic, Mark Coleman, Andrei Arlovski and Tim Sylvia.
Fedor had been favored to win the Strikeforce heavyweight grand prix tournament. Antonio Silva will face the winner of Fabricio Werdum vs Alistair Overeem. Tonight's other winner Sergei Kharitonov beat former UFC champ Andrei Arlvoski and will await the winner of Josh Barnett vs Brett Rogers.
Arlovski may also face retirement after losing his fourth straight fight -- all of them since leaving the UFC.

LAWLER WITH A VICORY AFTER BEATING...

Strikeforce on Showtime just wrapped up and we have the results from an exciting night of fights in Miami, Florida.

We have the results from every Strikeforce fight tonight and we’ll start with the co-main events before working our way down to the Herschel Walker and Bobby Lashley fights.

Nick Diaz had no trouble TKO’ing Marius "The Whitemare" Zaromskis and the results went final toward the end of the 1st round. Diaz wobbled “The Whitemare” early before Zaromskis connected on a decent shot that sent Nick to the canvas. After that it was all Diaz before the -245 betting favorite at BoDog Sportsbook finally put his opponent away with a series of punches and knees.

The other co-main event at Strikeforce tonight had champion Cris “Cyborg” Santos taking on Marloes Coenen for the belt. Coenen fought with heart but ultimately succumbed to strikes in the third round after never really posing a threat to “Cyborg”.

Herschel Walker smothered his opponent, Greg Nagy, for 2+ rounds before the results came in with the former Heisman winner getting the TKO victory half-way into round 3. The only punches that were landing were to the shoulder area of Nagy, but the ref decided he’d stop Walker before his opponent got a scratch or Indian burn. Who knows.

Other Strikeforce results show former professional wrestler Bobby Lashley easily handling Wes Sims by strikes in early part of the 1st round. Lashley went right for the takedown before hammering away at Sims until the referee stepped in. Sims protested, saying he was hit in the back of the head (I think that’s why he was emotional anyway), but, like most protests, the referee decided not to reverse the obvious results from the one-sided beatdown.

“Ruthless” Robbie Lawler pulled the big upset as the betting underdog scored a 1st round KO of "Marvelous" Melvin Manhoef after getting beat to hell for the majority of the 5-minute time. Lawler could barely walk after the fight due to some severe leg kicks but managed to pull out a Scott Smith-style power punch out of nowhere to seal the deal.

Jay “Thoroughbred” Hieron easily took a unanimous decision victory home although the final Strikeforce results won’t show the fact that Riggs wobbled his favored opponent a few times during the bout. Hieron controlled for the majority of the fight and was awarded a victory.

PAT MILETICH TO FIGHT AGAIN IN 2010?

Former UFC champion and MMA pioneer Pat Miletich (29-7-2) is in current negotiations for a summer return to the cage.

Pat reported his desire for a summer bout during his recent appearance on the most recent episode of ESPN.com's "MMA Live."

"I'm in negotiations with a couple different organizations right now," Miletich said. "I think I'll be fighting this summer, a big name guy, and it will definitely be on TV. It'll be exciting."

Miletich did not specify which organizations he was currently negotiating with, but the rapidly expanding Strikeforce organization recently inked "The Croatian Sensation" to a commentating deal.

Sources close to the organization indicated to MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) that Strikeforce may be interested in promoting a bout between Miletich and fellow MMA legend Frank Shamrock.

Both Strikeforce officials and Shamrock denied that they were discussing that matchup when contacted by MMAjunkie.com. Shamrock did indicate he would be open to the possibility.

"I thought [Miletich] was retired," Shamrock said. "Well, tell him if he wants some to come and get it."

Shamrock is currently scheduled for an April 11 main event contest with Nick Diaz for Strikeforce, a bout in which Miletich has been announced as broadcast team member.

Miletich last appeared in December 2008 in a knockout win over Thomas Denny in the main event of Adrenaline MMA 2.

Promoted by Miletich's long-time associate and manager Monte Cox, Adrenaline MMA has a third event scheduled for May 30 in Atlantic City, N.J.

Cox was unavailable for comment when contacted by MMAjunkie.com to gauge his interest in booking another appearance for the 41-year-old Miletich.

Miletich's December 2008 bout was his first appearance since a September 2006 loss to Renzo Gracie in the now-defunct IFL.

WELL, HERE'S HOW HE LOOKS STANDING....LOL

KIMBO SLICE TO BE ON THE NEXT ULTIMATE FIGHTER

I guess Kevin Ferguson really wants to be an F-ing fighter after all.

“Kimbo Slice” has apparently inked a deal with the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) and will debut as a participant on the upcoming tenth season of The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) according to Yahoo Sports.

Strikeforce recently passed on the contract of the former Elite XC heavyweight after the San Jose-based promotion purchased select Pro Elite assets following the company’s demise.

While there was some initial interest in his services, it was unrealistic to think they would pay him $500,000 (what he got paid for the Petruzelli fight) to bang with middle-of-the-road competition. In the end, the two sides could not find a common ground financially, and Slice officially became a free agent.

Anyone who would have predicted he’d end up on the Zuffa payroll would have gotten a visit from men in white coats at 3am for a long ride in the paddywagon — especially after all the disparaging remarks UFC President Dana White has made regarding the former street fighter and YouTube sensation.

However under all the insults and potshots, one thing White did promise was that Slice could join the UFC ranks if he fought his way into the cage via a stint on The Ultimate Fighter, White’s proving ground for up-and-coming talent looking to make it big.

Here’s a snip from the prez during the UFC 90 post-fight presser:

“What has the guy done to deserve to be in the UFC? Nothing. I don’t consider him a real athlete or anything. He won’t win The Ultimate Fighter (TUF). The offer is out there if he wants to take it and he won’t win it. I might [put a heavyweight show together just for him].”

I guess Ferguson took that as a challenge, as the bearded bruiser is now set to debut on the Spike TV reality show on September 16.

JOE ELLIOTT SPEAKS OF UPCOMING TOUR AND LOVE FOR LIFE

Friday May 29 2009

It's easy to think that, just because someone isn't giving Girls Aloud and Lady GaGa a run for their money, well, an artist must be struggling. Wrong.

In the case of Def Leppard -- who broke though in the 1980s with Pyromania, Hysteria and Adrenalize, a trio of albums that have sold more than 30 million copies -- recent years have seen their sales dip drastically on this side of the Atlantic, just as America embraces them once again.

Having spent the last few months deep in the vaults, pouring over demos for special reissues of Pyromania and Adrenalize -- Hysteria having already had an anniversary release -- Def Leppard frontman Joe Elliott is perfectly happy to take a walk down memory lane.

Catching up with the Dalkey resident as he prepares for a sell-out world tour, that includes June 12 at the O2, it's plain that the soon-to-be-50 Joe Elliott has got plenty to be happy about.

PAUL BYRNE: For the reissues of 1983's Pyromania and 1992's Adrenalize was it a walk in the park, or did you tread carefully?

JOE ELLIOTT: It's not a case of treading carefully, it's just like looking back over some old photobook, but an audio one. It's a case of opening it up, and giggling at yourself. I mean, sometimes we'd laugh at the trousers, and sometimes we'd laugh at the demos, but I've got to say, I've been blessed working with the people that I've worked with in this band. We've never really written what I would call a shit song.

Going back to these early albums, are you completely happy with them?

I'm enormously happy with those albums -- why wouldn't I be? They both sold over six million copies. There are lots of things on every single album that we've ever made -- including Hysteria, which has sold over 20 million copies -- that I would go back and redo. There are songs that I would leave off, but, that's a personal thing. There are other guys in the band who would disagree with me.

Do you ever get bored with playing those monster hits live?

I get bored s**tless doing Sugar and Photograph in rehearsals, I absolutely do, but not in front of an audience. When you hear a cheer at the beginning of a song, your mind can go into reverse mode, all the way back to the day when someone walked into the room and said: 'I've got this idea for a song'. And you see the song getting recorded, and being released, and becoming a hit.

Do you feel defensive of the newer albums, such as X (2002), Yeah! (2006) and last year's Songs From The Sparkle Lounge?

Yeah, but it depends on which way you want to look at it. If you're looking at it from an Irish perspective, where they didn't get played on the radio so much, yeah, but in the States, they did. Sparkle Lounge went Top 5 in the States, and it's still getting played. When we had Yeah! out in America, the singles, Rock On and No Matter What were No 1 for five weeks and six weeks respectively, on regular Top 40 radio. That album gave us our biggest tour since Hysteria.

So, you never wake up in the middle of the night, screaming: "Frick you, Radio 2!"?

Oh, God no, never, never. There's no point. I'm not a bitter person. Def Leppard are becoming the biggest cult band in the world. I don't really see a downside to that. People start supporting you because you're not being supported by The Man, or the machine. You get a solid foundation, and they do a lot of the groundwork on your behalf, these really die-hard fans.

So, you're a happy man . . .

I'm absolutely at peace. I don't lose any sleep over anything. The O2 is going to be sold out. We're headlining Donington -- or the The Download, as it's called now -- 23 years after we last played there, third on the bill to Ozzy. We've got a tour of the States coming up, 40 dates that are going to be sold out. I don't see anything to moan about.

You've left yourself six days off the current tour for your 50th birthday on August 1. Is that going to be a big deal for you?

Yeah, it is. That's why, you've noticed, we're not doing any gigs around it. I said a year ago: 'I'm not going to spend my 50th in a hotel room in Boise, Idaho, so, don't put me in one. I'm going to be at home and I'm going to have a nice, big, stupid party, and invite all my really close friends -- plumbers, plasterers, some guys on the dole. Some of them are in the music business but most of the people will just be really close friends. We'll have a good time, and if it doesn't rain, we'll have a barbecue, and we'll drink till the sun goes down. And we'll play music, and there'll be some dancing, and there'll be some shenanigans.

- Paul Byrne

UFC 98 RESULTS

Results:

– George Roop beat Dave Kaplan via split decision. The scores were 29-28 Kaplan, 30-27 Roop 30-27 Roop. Reportedly a good fight, but as it went 3 round, it is unlikely to air on the main show unless there is a lot of short matches.

– Yoshiyuki Yoshida beat Brandon Wolff via a guillotine choke in the first round.

– Krzysztof Soszynski defeated Andre Gusmao via knockout in the 1st round.

– Kyle Bradley beat Philippe Nover in the first round via ref stoppage. This was controversial. Nover was taken down and was stunned with a punch, Bradley, however, was missing all of his other punches. The ref, seeing Nover stunned, stopped the fight. The crowd was pissed with the stoppage.

– Tim Hague beat Pat Barry in the first round with a guillotine. Reportedly the best match on the show so far.

– Brock Larson defeated Mike Pyle via an arm triangle choke in the first round.

– Frankie Edgar beat Sean Sherk via unanimous decision

– Chael Sonnen defeated Dan Miller via unanimous decision

– Drew McFedries defeated Xavier Foupa-Pokam via TKO in the first round.

– Matt Hughes defeated Matt Serra via unanimous decision

– UFC Light Heavyweight Championship: Lyoto Machida defeated Rashad Evans via knockout in the second round.
