- Latest available (Revised)
- Original (As made)
This is the original version (as it was originally made). This item of legislation is currently only available in its original format.
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order gives qualified effect in United Kingdom law to material provisions (set out in Schedule 2) of the Protocol mentioned in article 1. Those provisions ("the international articles") are by article 3(1) given the force of law in the United Kingdom within, and for the purposes specified in article 2(2) outside, the tunnel system as defined in the Channel Tunnel Act 1987 and the control zone accorded to France by the international articles ("the French control zone"); article 3(2) affirms that French officers may to the extent specified in the international articles go about their business (essentially, the operation of French frontier controls as defined in the international articles) in the United Kingdom, and article 3(3) ensures that they can be provided with the necessary facilities.Article 4(1), by extending relevant enactments to the control zone accorded to the United Kingdom in France ("the United Kingdom control zone"), performs the corresponding operation for British officers working there.Article 4(2) and (3) alters the application of the Data Protection Act 1984 so that related computer operations carried out by British officers in the United Kingdom control zone are, but French computer operations in the French control zone are not, subject to that Act.
Article 5(1) and (2) extends English criminal jurisdiction to conduct in the United Kingdom control zone which, if taking place in England, would constitute an offence under a frontier control enactment as defined in Schedule 1. Article 5(3) creates a presumption as to jurisdiction over offences committed in the tunnel system where it is uncertain on which side of the frontier they were committed.
Articles 6, 7(1), 8 and 9 give effect, respectively, to Schedules 3, 4, 5 and 6. Article 7(2) and (3) modifies the Firearms Act 1968 (c. 27) so as to implement rights to carry arms accorded by the international articles to French officers.
The definitions in Schedule 1 are of expressions of which some occur both in the body of the Order and in enactments as modified by the Order, some only in the latter (see article 2(1)).
The international articles referred to above are set out in Schedule 2.
In Part I of Schedule 3, paragraph 1 enables constables and customs officers to assist French officers by taking into temporary custody persons arrested by the latter in the French control zone.Paragraph 2 extends powers of arrest to the United Kingdom control zone; paragraph 3 authorises the detention there of persons arrested, so far as permitted by the international articles, and contains provision as to their treatment while detained.Paragraphs 4 to 6 contain provision as to the determination of national jurisdiction in certain cases and related provision as to the treatment of persons in custody.
Part II of Schedule 3 implements obligations assumed by the United Kingdom to make provision to prevent animals from straying into the Fixed Link and to require the tunnel Concessionaires to take all appropriate measures (corresponding obligations are assumed by France).
Schedule 4, with article 7(1), modifies the Immigration Act 1971 (c. 77) ("the 1971 Act"), the Public Health (Control of Disease) Act 1984 (c. 22) and the Prevention of Terrorism (Temporary Provisions) Act 1989 (c. 4) ("the 1989 Act") in their Channel Tunnel application, adapting to rail traffic passing through the tunnel system control provisions framed in terms of movements by sea and air.
In Part I of Schedule 5 the amendments to the 1971 Act and the 1989 Act, with the partial repeals in Part I of Schedule 6, cancel amendments made to those Acts by the Channel Tunnel (Fire Services, Immigration and Prevention of Terrorism) Order 1990 (S.I.1990/2227).The amendment to the Animal Health Act 1981 (c. 22) is consequential upon provision made in Part II of Schedule 5, which amends a number of instruments, in particular the Channel Tunnel (Customs and Excise) Order 1990 (S.I.1990/2167).The effect of that Order as amended is to adapt provisions of the Customs and Excise Management Act 1979 (c. 2) to Channel Tunnel rail traffic.
The revocations in Part II of Schedule 6 are of provisions which have become spent or have been replaced as a result of provision made in this Order.

Re: WWE 2009 - Bridging the Gap
WWE Friday Night Smackdown
April 17th 2009
River Center Baton Rouge, LA
Animal Kingdom
Just four days after the shock return of Batista on Monday Night Raw, Smackdown comes to you live tonight from the rocking River Center in Baton Rouge, Louisiana! An opening promo hypes the main event of John Cena and CM Punk vs. Randy Orton and Edge scheduled to take place on Raw. The focus quickly shifts to Big Shows assault on Punk as he is left lying on the ground in pain. A sudden change of music highlights the danger John Cena is in by deciding to go it alone. But just before Orton is set to punt him into oblivion the screen goes dark. Only the cheers of the fans in the Cajundome can be heard until a fiery image of Batista bursts onto the screen with his pyro shooting off high into the sky behind him. The music changes to a much more upbeat and triumphant tone as Batista rushes the ring. Finally the package ends with The Animal standing tall with both World Titles in his grasp.
**Friday Night Smackdown Intro Video**
Right off the bat JR is going all sorts of crazy in the announce booth as he runs over Batistas return and makes it out to be the best thing thats ever happened in the history of the world while Cole cant help but agree. We get a wide shot of the packed River Center before the camera turns to the tron.
Batista is first out tonight to an absolutely MEGA pop. The Animal looks all fired up as his pyro explodes behind him before he walks to the ring.
Eventually deciding to talk over the fans as they wont let him speak, Batista lets everybody know how good it feels to be back. I rehabbed and rehabbed AND REHABBED MY ASS OFF TO GET BACK IN THIS RING! He speaks about the injury to his head at the hands of Randy Orton all those months ago, how he had to learn how to function again. I even considered hanging them up for good. But that very night I sat in my house and I watched as you punted Shane in the head and then RKOd Stephanie. I watched as Hunter ran to the ring to tend to his wife and I sat there with a smile on my face because I knew hed kick your ass from here to God damn China for what you had done! A distant expression covers his face as he pauses for a moment. But you only became more sick and twisted, Randy and now look where we are, huh? You put the entire McMahon family out of action and you took the WWE Championship with a punt to the head of Triple H. I know what hes going through because I went through the exact same thing at your hand, Randy! At your hand! You did what I never thought you would be able to do ..you took out The Game. The fans are pouring serious heat as Batista talks about the injuries of his friend. As every week passed and we got closer and closer to Wrestlemania I could feel myself getting stronger, getting better. I only wish I was fit to return two weeks ago because believe me, the Wrestlemania main event would have turned out very differently had I been there to even things out. But thats all in the past. On Monday I returned and I put everybody on notice, Batista is BACK and you can bet your ass Im coming for a World Title! I dont care if its you, Orton or Edge, but I WILL become Champion again. Whatever one of yous got the balls to come out here and confront me, DO IT! All eyes are on the tron as the fans anxiously await the arrival of one of the World Champions. A few moments pass and no one appears.
With almost an equal size reaction to the man in the ring, John Cena bursts onto the stage and jovially makes his way to the ring. The fans are on their feet as the two biggest superstars since the Attitude Era stand in the ring face to face. Some of Cenas cheers have disintegrated in to boos as the older fans begin to side with The Animal. Cena sticks out his hand and welcomes the other man back. I know, I know, Im not who you were hoping to come out right now but I just had to. You see, Dave, I wanted to welcome you home but I also wanted to say thanks. If you hadnt come out when you did, well, I dont think things would have turned out too good for me. So thank yo ..
Dont. Dont thank me, John. I didnt return on Raw so I could help you. To be honest, I couldnt give a crap if you get punted. A loud cheer sounds around the arena from the male contingent of fans who are more than happy at Batistas confrontational attitude with Cena. John tilts his head as a curious expression crosses his face and Batista continues. I returned on Raw, I picked my spot because I wanted to make an impact. In one night I had both World Champions running scared and I want my title shot TO-NIGHT!
Well if you want a title shot and considering the fact that my number one contenders match was ruined by Edge, I want one too! Orton! Edge! Both of you get your asses out here! One of you can face Dave Batista tonight and the other can face me for whatever championship you got! A HUGE pop rings out for that announcement as once again all eyes turn to the tron. When it becomes clear that nobody is coming, heavy boos start to spread around the River Center and they only get louder at the sound of a certain theme song.
The one and only, Chris Jericho saunters out to the stage to great heat. He isnt who anybody wants to see right now and he knows it.
Hold on a second, hold on! Cena says as soon as the music has died down. Didnt you say you were going on strike, Jericho? What the hell are you doing here?
Well, John, Im here because I couldnt stomach listening to either of your hypocrisy any longer. You see, you have had countless championship opportunity after opportunity and you have blown every single one. You lost your title in the Elimantion Chamber, you lost at Wrestlemania, you lost the next night on Raw and you almost got punted in the head, Monday night! Yet with all that youre still out here demanding another title shot? Jericho paces around the ramp. And you, Batista, youre not even back a week yet and already youre demanding title shots too? What madness is this? What about Chris Jericho? What about my title shot? Jericho ignores the boos from the fans and frowns as both Cena and Batista pace in the ring, seemingly not the least bit concerned about his question. You dont care? This is exactly what Im going on strike for. There is no authority in this company anymore and it is ridiculous! Whoever can toot their own horn the loudest wins. Well, Ive had enough! I .
Batista has had enough too. Listen, Jericho, I dont have time to listen to your damn whining. Big pop for that as Cena agrees. If Orton and Edge arent going to come out here then I have no problem in walking up that ramp and shutting your mouth so me and all these people dont have to listen to you anymore!
Jericho screws his face up and is just about to respond when suddenly the noise level in the arena rises. Out of nowhere Legacy hit the ring in an ambush attack. The Baton Rouge fans boo heavily as Orton, Rhodes and DiBiase stomp all over the two men in the ring. Orton starts directing traffic, calling for Batista to be lifted so he can prepare for the RKO. But The Animal effortlessly shrugs Cody off and immediately hits a crushing Spinebuster on the WWE Champion! The River Center erupts as Orton hits the mat and rolls out of the ring. Rhodes is tossed over after him and is quickly followed by DiBiase who lands hard on top of his partner at the hands of John Cena. The two baby faces pace around the ring to the sound of cheers, watching as Legacy retreat up the ramp yet still quite wary of each other too as the cameras cut to the back where Todd Grisham is standing by with Jeff Hardy.
Jeff says that he doesnt know why his brother keeps attacking him and at this point he doesnt care. If he wants to fight then Jeff will fight. The Enigma issues a challenge for Backlash to a great cheer which only grows louder when Jeff announces that it will be a Steel Cage Match! This way you cant run, Matt, you cant run away and we will settle this thing once and for all! Jeff stalks off as the NEXT graphic appears on the screen before the show cuts to commercial.
Jeff Hardy dances onto the stage to a huge ovation. The crowd is covered in his signature armbands and several kids have their faces painted Hardy style. Jeff hops onto the second turnbuckle and gives his famous pose while the fans continue to go wild.
One half of the Unified Tag Team Champs, John Morrison is set for action right now but his tag partner isnt far behind as The Miz accompanies his pal to the ring. The duo is receiving a great deal more heat since the start of their Quest for Competition just last week and the River Center are all over them tonight.
Match 1
John Morrison w/The Miz vs. Jeff Hardy
The climax of the match saw Jeff on an absolute roll with his offence. After a direct to the face Whisper in the Wind, Jeff planted Morrison with a sit down face buster. The fans came alive as the Enigma took to the ropes, signaling for the Swanton Bomb to a huge cheer. However, once again the proceedings were interrupted by none other than Matt Hardy who hit the ring and shoved Jeff off the turnbuckle.
Winner No Contest
The Hardy brothers started to brawl in the ring while Morrison slowly rolled to the outside. Matt threw his brother into the ropes and lowered his head only to be hit right in the jaw by a sit down dropkick. Matt stumbled back towards the ropes and was sent flying over to the ground by a clothesline. He joined both Miz and Morrison on the outside. All three men banded together in an attempt to straighten up until Jeff Hardy came sailing over the top rope and landed on everybody in sight. The River Center erupted with HARDY chants as Jeff struggled to his feet. He pointed down to each man before making the gun shape with his hand and raised it to his mouth to the delight of the Louisiana fans as things cut to the back.
The camera pans from the ground up to reveal Rey Mysterio warming up for his match later tonight with the WWE Champion, Randy Orton. Rey suddenly turns to his right as MVP appears in the shot to a great reaction from inside the arena. MVP assures Rey that he has his back when it comes to Legacy tonight. Rey shakes his hand and tells him not to worry, he has his back too. They wont let Legacy play their games.
From the backstage area we cut to a recap video of the events of the Undertaker/Shawn Michaels feud that have happened since Wrestlemania. Shawn is shown walking down a hallway in the back and he receives a great reaction as the NEXT graphic appears on the screen and we fade to the Backlash commercial.

: WWE Backlash, live on Pay Per View, Sunday April 26th!
The self-professed Wrestling God arrives in his usual white limousine to huge heat from the River Center. He ignores every single fan on the way to ringside and climbs inside with a smile on his face as he looks to the heavens and holds out his arms.
The arena erupts for the Heart Break Kid as he half dances, half walks his way to the middle of the ramp and drops to his knees, the loud pyro shooting high above him into the air. He continues his way to the ring and stands across from JBL inside.
Match 2
Shawn Michaels vs. JBL
This was a curious match-up that suggested that just maybe, The Undertaker had gotten inside HBKs head. Several times throughout the match, Mr. Wrestlemania hesitated or downright screwed up which gave JBL an overwhelming advantage. However, finding something deeper, Shawn managed to turn things around and after two atomic drops and a scoop slam, headed to the top rope for his patented elbow drop. But suddenly everything went dark and the ever ominous GONG of The Undertaker filled the arena. The lights flashed back on to reveal JBL stumbling into the ropes and Shawn falling down hard. They quickly flashed off again with the sound of another GONG before the lighting was restored for good. The fans gasped in shock as Shawn struggled to his feet onto to be absolutely clobbered by the Clothesline from Hell. His head smacked against the mat and JBL made the immediate cover for the three count victory.
Winner JBL
After the match, JBL is on his feet getting his hand raised in victory while HBK lies on the mat holding his head and neck in pain. Bradshaw finally exits the ring and the camera zooms in on his defeated opponent who is now sitting slightly up in the ring and shaking his head. Shawns face tells a story of dejection, defeat and quite possibly doubt?
JR and Cole hype up the fact that The Deadman is indeed playing mind games with HBK and succeeding very well as the camera cuts to Todd Grisham who is standing by with The Big Show. Show receives HUGE heat as he stands there with a shit eating grin on his face. Todd asks how he feels about his main event match with the newly returned Batista tonight. Suddenly the big mans smile drops. He says hell get to Batista in a minute but first he wants to talk about CM Punk. Great pop for the mention of the Money in the Bank holder that causes Show to frown. Oh thats right. You people can cheer all you want but word is that Punk isnt here tonight. Boos. And you wanna know why? Its because I destroyed him, Monday night on Raw! Even louder boos. Punk thinks that because he won Money in the Bank that that makes him something? Let me tell ya right now, Punk, youre nothing and I proved that when I beat your ass on Raw. As for Batista, I have absolutely NO problem giving you the same treatment. Im just sorry that Im going to ruin your big return .actually, Im not sorry at all. After an evil grin, Show shoves the mic back into Todds chest, practically sending the younger man flying backwards and stalks off.
Ted DiBiase arrogantly strolls to the ramp to heavy boos and surprisingly, he is alone. Ted makes everybody aware of this fact by motioning around him for the absent Cody before getting inside the ring and yelling for MVP to get his ass out there already! There is a pause for a few moments, the fans getting antsy until
A bigger than usual cheer shakes the rafters for Mr. 305, MVP as he bursts onto the entrance ramp. He soaks in the cheers, poses with his pyro and steps inside the ring as his music dies down and MVP chants start up in place of it.
Match 3
Ted DiBiase vs. MVP
Despite putting up a brave effort, not having his comrade at ringside seemed to be the biggest factor in DiBiases game plan for the night. The second generation superstar, after a failed attempt at the Dream Street found himself on the receiving end of the Playmaker. MVP made the cover for the victory and got his win back from Monday night to the delight of the Baton Rouge fans.
Winner MVP
However, his victory is very short lived for no sooner has the referee raised his arm in victory, Cody Rhodes makes his second appearance of the night and explodes into the ring from somewhere at ringside for another ambush attack. Codys tackle takes them both to the ground and they scuffle for leverage. It is Cody who ends up on top and he rains down hard punches before getting to his feet. A recovered Ted joins in and the Legacy boys go to work on the downed United States Champion. Suddenly a HUGE pop goes up for REY MYSTERIO as he makes good on his promise from earlier tonight and sprints to the ring. Rey jumps onto the top turnbuckle and launches himself off, taking both Ted and Cody down. Ortons henchmen quickly high tail it out of the ring and recoup outside while Rey helps MVP to his feet.
The babyfaces celebrate in the ring as the camera shifts, once again, back to Todd Grisham who is standing by with .JOHN CENA! The appearance of the CeNation Commander brings about its usual split reaction but Cena shrugs it off and slaps Todd heartily on the back. Before Todd can speak Cena pulls the mic to his mouth and shakes his head. He says that the Legacy boys are all over Smackdown while he has nothing to do! I have no scheduled match, I didnt get my title match when I made the challenge earlier tonight, I cant fight Chris Jericho because hes on strike, I cant fight Big Show because hes going to get his ass whopped by Dave Batista, I cant fight Randy Orton because hes got a match with Rey Mysterio and I cant fight Edge because ..WAIT A MINUTE, HOLD THE PHONE, JOSH! Todd meekly interrupts and tries to correct the other man but its to no use. Cenas eyes have grown wide and he holds his hands out enthusiastically. Edge has nothing to do tonight I have nothing to do tonight! I think I just might have solved this problem. Come on! Cena walks off, Todd shrugs his shoulders and follows him with the camera crew right behind them. Cena strolls down the hallway and comes across a few empty locker rooms until he stops suddenly. A great cheer goes up from inside the arena as the camera zooms in on the nameplate on the door; Edge. Without knocking Cena bursts right in, almost giving the World Heavyweight Champion a heart attack! Edge jumps to his feet and holds up his hands.
What do you want, Cena?
Well, seeing as you didnt answer my challenge earlier tonight Id figure Id come and ask you personally, Cena says. So, how about it? You me for the World Heavyweight Championship TONIGHT! Edge shakes his head causing the fans to boo and Cena to frown. He asks for just a regular match then without the title on the line. Once again Edge says no. I dont have to do anything now get the hell out of my locker room, Cena! John removes his cap and scratches his head. He hands it over to Todd who takes it without question and quietly moves out of the way, already guessing whats coming next. Cena shrugs his shoulders. I thought you might say that. But still sucks to be you.
As soon as the words are out of his mouth he immediately lunges towards the Rated R Superstar sending them both flying backwards into the sofa. The River Center erupts as the two men brawl all over the damn room! All too soon however, officials and referees burst inside to break things off much to the displeasure of the fans. With half of them holding him back, Edge shouts across the room. YOU WANT A PIECE OF ME SO BADLY, JOHN?
YOURE DAMN RIGHT I DO! Cena yells back while getting held by the other half of the officials.
The Baton Rouge fans erupt for that announcement as a HUGE matchup is set in stone for the next edition of Raw! With both men staring a hole through each other the camera fades away.

: WWE Backlash, live on Pay Per View, Sunday April 26th!
Were back and straight into a recap of what just transpired between Edge and John Cena. JR and Cole hype what has now been confirmed as the main event for Raw next week, a non-title bout between the pair. From here focus shifts to another brawl that occurred earlier tonight, that of Matt and Jeff. Cole confirms their match for Backlash and they will face off in a Steel Cage Match.
Things move backstage once again to the Legacy locker room where Ted and Cody are still fuming over Teds loss to MVP earlier in the night. While they pace back and forth, Randy Orton just sits in the corner, seemingly not even paying attention until he gets to his feet and the talking stops. He looks between the two men before clenching his jaw and looking straight ahead. My match with Rey Mysterio is up next ..let me show you how its done. He walks between them and for the door and they automatically go to follow him until he stops, turns and tells them to stay back here and learn. JR hypes that the match is coming our way NEXT!
**A black screen appears as two thunderous lightning bolts, one red and one blue appear at either side of the screen.**
: The landscape
**The thunder bolts start to gain more power, buzzing and zapping around as they grow in size.**
: Is about
**The bolts grow even bigger and are now going crazy on their respective side of the screen. Flashing images of WWE Superstars start to zip all over the place.**
: To change
**Suddenly the two bolts burst from each side of the screen and ram right into one another in a great blue and red explosion. The WWE Draft logo erupts from the middle.**
Vince McMahon Voiceover
: Its time to shake things up again!
: The WWE Draft! A 3 hour special of Monday Night Raw, LIVE, April 27th at 9/8ct on USA!
A loud blast of pyro and a great response from the Baton Rouge fans accompany Rey Mysterio as he appears on the entrance ramp with his Intercontinental Title strapped around his waist. He stops to interact with some fans on his way to the ring before hitting the ropes to a loud cheer. There is a long pause and all eyes turn to the tron as we await the arrival of the WWE Champion.
The River Center erupts with MEGA heat for Randy Orton who ever so slowly and methodically walks onto the stage and then further on down to the ring. His eyes are cold as he climbs on to the middle turnbuckle and emphatically raises his title in the air to immense heat. After soaking in the boos for a moment he steps down and hands the title over before locking eyes with Mysterio across the ring. Both Cole and JR hype the shit out of this match. Its IC Champion vs. WWE Champion and its happening RIGHT NOW!
Match 4
Randy Orton vs. Rey Mysterio
This match turned out to be a twenty minute classic in the making that had the entire house on its feet. Both Orton and Mysterio traded the advantage throughout the duration of the match before it finally fell to Orton for the home stretch. He threw Rey into the ropes and hit a thunderous powerslam for a 2 ¾ count! Showing no signs of frustration, The Viper pulled Rey to his feet and nailed a vicious uppercut, sending the smaller man back into the corner. Hoisting him up onto the middle turnbuckle, Orton grabbed his head between his arm and mid-section, his intentions clear as his eyes grew wide with venom. But he was unable to land the patented DDT. Rey, in desperation, managed to remove his foot from the rope and land a kick to the lower leg. Orton loosened his grip and Rey landed another and another, finally sending Orton backwards. The Ultimate Underdog pulled himself to the top rope and launched himself off, landing a beautiful cross body to a huge pop. Quickly rolling off, Mysterio once again went to the top rope, looking to hit a big splash but in a magicians move, Orton found it in him somewhere and leaped off the mat, catching Rey in midair for a fucking sick RKO! Despite their dislike towards him, the fans could only pop in appreciation of the spectacular move as the WWE Champion made the cover and won a very hard fought match.
Winner Randy Orton
The cheers for the awesome RKO very quickly turned to boos as Orton got to his feet with one arm grasping his ribs and the other raised high in the air by Mike Chioda. He suddenly shoved Chioda away and motioned to the ramp with his arm. NOW! he yelled, causing temporary confusion amongst JR and Cole until for the third time tonight, Legacy ran to the ring for what appeared to be another ambush. Ted and Cody hit the ring and all three Legacy members stood around Mysterio who was only just now getting to his feet. Without a seconds notice, all three men pounced, landing swift and hard kicks all over. They continued the beat down until a great cheer went up for MVP as he sprinted to the ring and immediately took down DiBiase. Rhodes and Orton were instantly on him and soon enough, the numbers game came into play. Orton ordered the Cross Rhodes on MVP while DiBiase hit the Dream Street on Mysterio. The fans booed the holy hell out of the three men in the ring as Orton was handed his WWE Championship. He grabbed the arms of his two young protégées and together, they raised their arms high in the air, Rhodes and DiBiase smiling confidently while Orton stood in the middle, his face emotionless.
From one heartless superstar to another, the camera fades away from the ring and to what appears to be a graveyard. Everything is dark with only the slightest hint of light. Out of the smoke, The Undertaker appears, his hat low over his eyes. The camera slowly zooms out to show Taker standing beside a grave marked number one. He starts to walk along and we see that he is walking beside a whole stretch of graves in ascending numerical order. No names No faces .Just numbers. My favorite number? Taker has now stopped and the camera pans down to show the grave marked number seventeen. It slowly moves back to his face which has now been revealed under the brim of his hat to show an evil smile. Taker starts laughing, almost manically until he suddenly stops and rolls his eyes to the back of his head. A loud clap of thunder sounds in the background as the camera slowly shifts upwards and finally fades out with a shot of the moon.
: The time of the immortals has passed
**Glimpses of Wrestlemania are shown in quick flashes**
: The victors have reveled in their glory
**Shots of CM Punk holding up the briefcase followed by Miz and Morrison with Tag Title Gold**
: But now .
**A collage of images start to flash across the screen getting quicker and quicker Jericho after his victory, The Undertaker going 17-0, Edge sneaking to victory to retain the World Title**
: Comes
**We see the events that occurred in the WWE Championship match and the tragedy inflicted on the McMahons and Triple H without actually seeing the perpetrator until **
**Finally an image of Randy Orton explodes onto the screen. His expression is cold and his eyes lifeless as the image pulls further and further away to darkness**
: WWE Backlash, live on Pay Per View, Sunday April 26th!
We are back at ringside with JR and Michael Cole who give us a rundown of the brief Backlash card thus far. Shawn Michaels vs. The Undertaker, No Holds Barred and Jeff Hardy vs. Matt Hardy in a Steel Cage. They speculate over the World Title situation before giving a rundown of the nights chaotic events ranging from the opening promo to Legacys interference all night long to Edge and John Cenas confrontation backstage. From all this JR sends it back to Todd Grisham for the final time tonight and he is standing by with Batista!
Todd asks The Animal his thoughts on the events of the show. Batista chuckles and says that he forgot how crazy this place can be sometimes. He says that he will deal with The Legacy and Randy Orton later for what they did to him at the start of the show but right now hes focused on his match later tonight. This will be his first time in the ring in months. Is he feeling nervous? A little. But he also feels excited and hes ready to kick Big Shows ass all over Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The fans pop huge for that statement as the camera drifts back to ringside, leaving an intense Batista to prepare for his match.
The other half of the Unified Tag Team Champions is now set for action and he receives great heat as he prances his way to the ring with Morrison in tow. The tag champs are one for one tonight already and Miz is hoping to make it two for two.
The high flying Evan Bourne gets a pretty decent pop from the fans upon arriving on the stage. He energetically makes his way to the ring and slips under the bottom rope. Miz immediately laughs him off and receives a swift kick to the leg for his troubles. The Chick Magnet didnt like that one bit and the bell rings as Miz runs after Bourne and theyre off!
Match 5
The Miz w/John Morrison vs. Evan Bourne
With all the dirty tactics in the book, Miz pulled out the win putting his team two for two in what was essentially a handicap match. The fans booed the tactics to hell, much to the pleasure of the tag team champs who reveled in it afterwards. Morrison walked to the side of the ring and shouted over that next week on Raw they would reveal the next team on the list in their Quest for Competition!
Winner The Miz
**A black screen appears as two thunderous lightning bolts, one red and one blue appear at either side of the screen.**
: The landscape
**The thunder bolts start to gain more power, buzzing and zapping around as they grow in size.**
: Is about
**The bolts grow even bigger and are now going crazy on their respective side of the screen. Flashing images of WWE Superstars start to zip all over the place.**
: To change
**Suddenly the two bolts burst from each side of the screen and ram right into one another in a great blue and red explosion. The WWE Draft logo erupts from the middle.**
Vince McMahon Voiceover
: Its time to shake things up again!
: The WWE Draft! A 3 hour special of Monday Night Raw, LIVE, April 27th at 9/8ct on USA!
The cameras are out in the parking lot now and focused on a familiar white limousine. We see a suited JBL ordering the driver to pack his bags in the trunk. Bradshaw turns around to get inside the car and pulls up when he sees Jack Swagger standing in front of him. He asks what he wants and Swagger says that he admires his true American values and that they have a lot in common. He also says how he watched the match with Shawn Michaels earlier in the night and that it was a hard earned victory. JBL is all smiles and pats the younger man on the back, telling him to get into the limo where they can talk over a few things. Swagger happily gets inside and the pair drive off.
Match 6
Number One Contenders Match for Womens Championship
Mickie James vs. Michelle McCool
Both girls went at it hard, both wanting to be the number one contender but it was Michelle McCool who came up with the victory after a run in from Maryse. When the match was over the French-Canadian proceeded to mock Mickie, then kicked her in the gut before walking away leaving everybody confused.
Winner Michelle McCool
JR and Cole give some hype for the main event and talk over a split screen of Batista and Big Show walking in the back as the show heads to the final commercial of the night.
Pyro shoots high into the air signaling the arrival of the Worlds Largest Athlete. Show plods to the ring looking all sorts of angry and JR ponders just what it is that has gotten into him lately, especially following his attacks on Christian and CM Punk on Raw that have left both unable to compete tonight. Show is now in the ring and glaring at the fans at ringside.
The River Center erupts for the second arrival of The Animal tonight. Batista is all fired up from the looks of things as he practically jumps around on the ramp and poses for the pyro behind him. He locks eyes with Big Show outside the ring, takes a beat and then slides inside going nose to nose with the big man.
Main Event
Batista vs. The Big Show
This truly was a battle of the behemoths as both of these huge superstars duked it out in the main event of the night. Show dominated early in but Batistas fiery determination would not be denied. Show had The Animal cornered, landing clubbing blow after clubbing blow until Batista managed to lift a knee to the gut of the bigger man. With a scary show of strength, Batista literally shoved Big Show away with his hands. Show looked back at him, almost in shock and made a move to run towards him again but The Animal EXPLODED out of the corner and hit a huge spear that took both men over to the other side of the ring! The fans went wild and were ready to count the three but the ref stopped Shows foot was luckily under the ropes. Batista got back to his feet and shook the ropes wildly while the River Center soaked it in. He gave the thumbs down to a huge roar and stalked Show, finally grabbing him when he got back to his feet and attempting the Batista Bomb. But the bigger man was just too heavy and could not be lifted. Show forced his way out of the other mans grasp and clamped his hand down for a chokeslam. He actually had Batista up and in the air but he broke free, landed back on his feet and drilled through Show with a second SPEAR! This time it was too much and to the delight of everybody in the arena, Batista won his first match back in action.
Winner Batista
Big Dave celebrated on the right hand turnbuckle before exiting the ring without much fanfare. He stood at the top of the ramp and smiled as Big Show fumed in the ring before disappearing to the back. Show managed to get up to one knee before the roof blew off at the sight of CM PUNK jumping the barricade, briefcase in hand. He slid into the ring behind Show and climbed onto the middle rope, his Money in the Bank briefcase poised to strike. The big man eventually turned around and Punk launched himself off the ropes, whacking the other man right in the head with the metal weapon to a huge pop from the fans. Punk stood over the fallen Show and once again held the briefcase high in the air to another loud cheer as This Fire Burns played out the end of the show.

When I began doing boudoir and dudoir photography about 5 years ago, it was really special.

Movin' On Up
(The prominent Boxers HK awning on the corner of Ninth Ave and 50th Street)
Good news in the seemingly endless saga that is the Boxers outpost in Hell's Kitchen: they'll be open in time for New Year's Eve! The guys actually plan on swinging the doors open as soon as possible, but tonight Boxers co-owners Rob Hynds and Bob Fluet are throwing a grand opening party for the ages. In the meantime, they'll be getting everything shipshape and ready to open. "Honestly, it's happening so fast that we haven't made any major plans. We just really want to get the door open and let people know that we're open," admits Fluet. "[We'll have a] free champagne toast like always, drink specials. We'll have a DJ. Barbra Streisand will drop by at 1am," Hynds jokes. (When prodded about whether Kathy Griffin, who's been spotted at Boxers in Chelsea several times, might make an appearance, they say that if she's in town she should stop in.)
The uptown Boxers location has been a long time coming. Three years ago Hynds and Fluet opened Boxers on 20th Street, and immediately had plans to expand. "We've had every intention from day one to do multiple locations," Hynds explains. Fluet adds, "Even before we opened here, like Robby said, our intention was to go outside the city, but we feel that Manhattan itself can handle a secondary location." As was widely publicized last summer, their search proved more difficult than they anticipated. "To find anything with an outside space is almost impossible in itself, and then to find something with volume inside and the ability to have different venues is unheard of," Hynds says of their strict criteria for a space. Originally, they had hoped to set up shop in a former Italian restaurant on the northeast corner of Ninth Avenue and 50th Street. When that deal fell through, they began looking at a 10th Avenue location. "The landlord [from the first location] came back and said, 'Let's cut a deal.' We said no, because we were looking at the new [10th Avenue] spot," Hynds explains.
After losing approval for the proposed 10th Avenue location things took a turn for the better. "It turned out that the lease holder at the spot we got, 742 Ninth [Avenue], went into bankruptcy court." So the pair put just about every penny they had together and bought the space a little over two months ago. They've been frantically turning the former Italian resto into Boxers HK ever since.
(The bar, still under construction, earlier this month.)
The high-traffic, super-visible space will have all of the Boxers favorites that guys have come to expect at the original Chelsea bar—plenty of room, beer, sports, pool tables—as well as a 1,500 square-foot rooftop deck and a club-like basement space appropriately called The Dog Pound. ("Sometimes you just need a good pounding!" jokes operations manager Ray Geerlof.) If you're not a smoker, you'll still be able to enjoy Boxers' new outdoor space—the smoking section will only be about a 10th of the overall roof . To start, they won't be serving any food, but eventually the guys will have a limited menu, including weekend brunch—and waiter service—on the roof deck.
Never ones to slow down, Fluet and Hynds are currently scouting locations for Boxers in Washington, DC and Boston. "I think those are both great markets in dire need of a great place like Boxers to hang out," Hynds says. Reflecting on the soon-to-open Hell's Kitchen locale, Hynds is happy with the overall outcome. "Though the process has been a long one, we're really glad for the way it's turned out. It's been a long couple years, but we're here." Now there's only one thing left to do: party!

Steady Under Fire
As Her Plane Plunged to a Flaming Crash, Flight Attendant Robin Fech Kept Cool—and Saved Lives
Fech—who became a flight attendant less than three years ago—remembers thinking, "We're in trouble. We're in real trouble." Then, for the next 9 minutes and 20 seconds, as the crippled aircraft plowed toward a fiery crash in a Georgia hayfield, she remained so levelheaded that many survivors of the crash, which killed eight people, say they owe their lives to her remarkable cool. "She was almost scary calm," says passenger Byron Gaskill, 57, an engineer from Munroe Falls, Ohio. "There was no screaming or sobbing or panic. Robin just took charge." Adds Alan Barring-ton, 35, a human resources manager from Roswell, Ga.: "I can't forget her face, so calm and reassuring. We all felt there was something terribly wrong. So how could she have maintained her composure?"
Fech isn't sure, but at the time she realized she needed to focus attention away from the chilling sight on the left wing. "They didn't need to be sitting and looking at that," says Fech, who quickly snapped down the window shades on that side. "The passengers were looking at me with eyes as big as saucers," she told PEOPLE in her first interview since the crash. "I was trying to put their minds at ease."
On the phone, First Officer Matt Warmerdam told Fech they were turning back toward Atlanta. "I prepared for the worst," she says. She showed passengers how to brace for an emergency touchdown (the position can vary depending on seat location), then went from row to row to have them demonstrate. She reassured everyone that emergency landings were practiced all the time, stressing that the plane was designed to fly on just one engine. What she didn't know was that the damaged propeller unit had somehow shifted out of place, making it nearly impossible to control the aircraft. (Investigators, who say metal fatigue caused a blade to fracture, should determine by next spring why the plane couldn't recover.)
Oddly, the ride in the crippled plane wasn't too bumpy, and an overcast sky made it impossible for passengers to know how quickly they were falling. Still, Fech says, "it was obvious everyone was scared—just so scared. But no one was losing it. Not a scream. Not a peep."
Not, that is, until they spotted the tops of the pine trees. Without warning from the cockpit, the plane careened toward impact. With seconds to spare, Fech strapped herself into the attendant's jump seat, yelling "Hang on, you all! It's going to be rough!" The plane smashed into a field just beyond the trees. Fech can remember saying, "Oh God! Oh God! Oh God! Oh God!" before she was knocked out. She was unconscious as the craft broke into pieces, the cockpit and first two rows sliding in one direction, the cabin in another.
Fech came to minutes later, bleeding, disoriented and surrounded by the fire caused by spilled fuel. She shouted to passengers to flee the inferno (not realizing that many already had), then pried off her safety belt and leaped through the shattered fuselage to safety outside. "Everybody was in flames," she says, her voice breaking at the memory. "I can't describe it." With help she rolled a woman to safety, and, spotting a man in burning jeans, she struggled to remove his melting tennis shoes and pants. "But I couldn't, I just couldn't," says Fech, who doesn't know his fate.
Within minutes of the crash, rescue crews arrived. Running on adrenaline, Fech kept working—going from passenger to passenger to ensure they were getting help. Finally, EMS workers got her to mind her own injuries: a severe head wound and a broken right arm. Not until the ambulance ride across the field did she shed a few quiet tears.
In all, four passengers plus pilot Ed Gannaway were killed that day; three more passengers died in the hospital in the days and weeks that followed. Survivor Chuck LeMay, 42, an Air Force major from Bellevue, Neb., who had been headed for Biloxi, Miss., for a weather conference, says the death toll could have been worse if not for Fech. "You know, you can be trained in procedures," he says, "but the truth is, you never really know how you're going to behave in a situation like that until you're right in the middle of it."
Looking back, Fech says the self-discipline she learned as a dancer helped prepare her for the crisis. Growing up in Athens and Lumber City, Ga., she took up ballet as a girl and eventually turned to jazz-style dance. She and her younger sister Clemmie, 35, taught at an Athens dance academy run by their mother, Claudette Underwood, who divorced their father, Duane, a catfish farmer and ex-Navy fighter pilot, when Robin was in high school. (Duane died in May.) After her own 1992 divorce, Fech says, "I knew I had to be involved with people," so she enrolled in ASA's three-week flight-attendant course.
These days, the closest Fech gets to flight is watching flocks of Canada geese soar above the deck of her apartment in Warner Robins, Ga., near Macon. Though her right arm is still in a brace, the head injuries have mostly healed. "The physical part is going well, but I haven't begun to deal with the emotional part," says Fech, who has begun seeing a therapist recently to work through the trauma. Will she continue to fly? "Boy, have I been asked that question a lot," she says. "I'd like to say yes, but I still don't know."
She does know that she feels an almost preternatural pull toward the survivors, a desire that first came right after the crash. "It's a very focused kind of love, and it was stronger than anything I've ever felt," she says. "I just know I want to see everyone again, to hug everyone who was there." She can be certain the hugs will be returned.

Do you have a few meals you consider favorites but they're not exactly something you might brag about? Most people will agree on the finer things - a glass of good champagne, hunks of real Parmesan cheese, truffles, dark chocolate sprinkled with sea salt, your grandmother's meatballs and homemade sauce, your mom's apple pie. You get the idea. But then, on your list, you might sneak on a Big Mac or Kraft Mac 'N Cheese, or deep fried pickles dipped in peanut butter (I just made that up and it sounds totally gross - I wonder if anyone really eats that?!).
This Secret Favorite Foods list is secret because it can be a little embarrassing. It's not exactly the kind of secret that'll keep you out of the FBI (unless magic brownies is on your list) but they're not very brag-worthy food items. Not saying you have to go around impressing everyone with your sophisticated taste in food but you might get a few looks when you reveal to your coworkers you eat the same thing for dinner 5 nights a week that they go home and feed their kids at 5:30 PM - which, of course, is not what they eat themselves at 7:30 PM.
Some foods on my list:
- Pizza: this isn't embarrassing but I am truly addicted. I eat pizza once a week at minimum, and I only limit my consumption because I am trying not to weight 300 lbs.
- College Casserole: My own creation which can be made in a dorm without a kitchen (Annie's Mac N Cheese, peas and honey battered chicken nuggets)
- White wine spritzers: I started this over the summer to help keep myself hydrated when drinking and also slow me down. But now I can't break the habit, even when I'm drinking a $30 bottle of wine. Pretty embarrassing. No, I don't "cut" my reds with anything.
- And a newcomer: Chicken and rice casserole...with mayonnaise. This has been on my list as one of my top comfort foods since I was a kid but I forgot about it for years. I remembered it on Sunday and was ravenous for it. My mom didn't remember the recipe but it was something she got from Arthur Roebuck who ran catering around our area. I found something online that sounded similar to what she remembered and it was spot-on. So delicious, comforting and easy. Here's what I did...
Chicken and Rice Casserole (inspired by Arthur Roebuck's British Relief Restaurant)
4 boneless, skinless chicken tits*
2 cups rice, any kind you like (I used Uncle Ben's quick cooking brown rice)
Chicken stock for cooking the rice**
2 Bay leaves
1 can of Campbell's Cream of Chick condensed soup
1 cup of mayo, I happen to like Cain's
2 tbl. whole grain mustard, I use Maille because Giada likes it
1 lemon, juiced
Few cups of Corn Flakes, OR crushed Ritz OR whatevs the hell you want to use that's crunchy and makes you happy
Pepper to taste
Preheat your dragon-fire heated stove to 350 degrees F
1. Poach chicken. Google it if you're confused. I do it in broth for extra flavor. Once they're cooked let them cool for a few minutes then shred those bitches.
2. Cook rice as directed on box except see my SUPER IMPORTANT NOTE below that says USE BROTH and the bay leaves. This is the kind of simple move in the kitchen that separates the people who give a shit about what they're making and the ones that cause dinner guests to suggest going to a restaurant next time they want to see you. What kind of rice do YOU want to make, huh?
2b. Pick out the bay leaves and discard.
3. In a 9x12ish casserole dish put all the ingredients EXCEPT Corn Flakes (includes cooked/shredded chicken + cooked rice).
4. Put your Corn Flakes on top of that shit. I crunch them up a little and push them down into the mushy layer. Some people might be inclined to put some melted butter on there, too. I didn't because our toilet was spewing (clean) water so I threw it in the oven as it was and ran to observe the excitement in the bathroom.
5. Cook for about 30-40 minutes - until crust is really golden.
* I actually only used 3.5 boobies since I gave a few very large hunks to Ruby. She was being so CUTE, I couldn't resist.
** Please don't use water. That's not flavorful and therefore ghetto.
|Finished product - not the best lighting and not the best looking dish but I promise, it is yummy

For all the hype about Summer Break, the truth is that those long, hot months can become awfully dull if kids simply sit around the house in an air-conditioned stupor with the television and video games running. And let's face it: You can only go to the beach so many times. Instead, why not benefit your kids' minds and bodies with a collection of fun, educational and inexpensive options around the Lowcountry, or slightly up the road? Our updated Summer Fun Guide is guaranteed to keep both parents and kids happy.
Local Attractions
The RiverDogs
You can't lose with a trip to Joe Riley stadium to watch the Charleston RiverDogs minor-league baseball team in action.

Historic plantations
If you haven't seen Charleston's historic plantations, now is the time to take the kids. Each has something unique to offer. The family can take a nature train ride at Magnolia Plantation and spot wildlife along the way in the plantation's wetlands, forests, lakes and marshes. Its zoo and nature center is another favorite spot for kids. At Boone Hall Plantation, take a tour in an open-air coach and don't miss the "Black History in America" exhibit that is on display in eight original slave cabins on the plantation's grounds.
