The song entered the Billboard charts in the issue dated April 7, 2007.  It debuted at number eighty-two on the Billboard Hot 100 on the issue date April 14, 2007 and reached number six, making it the highest charting Bone Thugs-N-Harmony single in ten years.

Music video
On March 7, 2007, the music video officially debuted on Yahoo! and other websites. On December 31 of the same year, the video appeared at number 89 on BET's Notarized: Top 100 Videos of 2007 countdown. The video shows the group and Akon performing as well as tells the story of a young man in Cleveland where the group was first formed. The man walks into a grocery store, but at the entrance, he collides with a man running out of the store. The man drops what he had in his hand, revealing money. The money is inferred to be stolen from the store. The other man runs away, while the young man picks up his bag. Consequently, a police officer catches him picking up the bag where the money had been dropped. He runs from the police officer, but the officer eventually arrests him. The officer goes to the store to check with the owner if he had arrested the suspect. The store owner says the young man did not rob the store, and then the officer lets the young man go. The video ends with the man walking away from the store.

The music video was directed by Rich Newey.

John Williams (August 30, 1817 – February 7, 1899) was the eleventh presiding bishop of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America.

Early life
Williams was born at Deerfield, Massachusetts, the son of Ephraim Williams and Emily (Trowbridge) Williams.  He was educated at Deerfield Academy, Harvard and at Trinity College, Hartford, where he graduated in 1835.  Although his parents were Unitarian, Williams's time at Harvard convinced him to join the Protestant Episcopal Church. He was ordained deacon in 1838 and priest in 1841. Williams held the rectorship of St. George's Church, Schenectady, New York, from 1842 to 1848, after which he became president of Trinity College, and at the same time professor of history and literature there.

Bishop of Connecticut
In 1851, Williams was elected Assistant Bishop of Connecticut. He was the 53rd bishop, and was consecrated by Bishops Thomas Church Brownell, John Henry Hopkins, and William Heathcote DeLancey. In 1854, Williams founded Berkeley Divinity School at Middletown, and held the office of dean as well as being principal instructor in Church history and theology at the School. On the death of Bishop Brownell in 1865, Williams succeeded him in the sole charge of the diocese, remaining Dean of Berkeley Divinity School also.

Presiding bishop
Williams succeeded Alfred Lee of Delaware as presiding bishop in 1887, and earned the reputation of a wise conservative leader in ecclesiastical affairs.  In 1896, he was acknowledged as the senior bishop in the Anglican communion.

Works
Among his published works are:
 Thoughts on the Gospel Miracles (1848)
 The English Reformation (Paddock Lectures, 1881)
 The World's Witness to Jesus Christ (Bedell Lectures, 1882)
 Studies in the Book of the Acts (1888)

The Polish–Bohemian War or Polish–Czech War () was a conflict in Europe in 990 between the Polish duke Mieszko I of the Duchy of Poland and the Bohemian duke Boleslaus II of the Duchy of Bohemia. It ended with the Bohemians' defeat and with Poland conquering the territory of Silesia.

Prelude 
Bohemian–Polish relations had worsened following the death of the wife of Mieszko and Bohemian princess Dobrawa in 977; this marked the end of the Polish-Bohemian alliance. Until the mid-980s the rulers of both the Polish and Bohemian states supported the Holy Roman Empire's Henry II, Duke of Bavaria, but their alliance did not last into the second half of that decade.

The war 

The war was fought likely for the purposes of territorial expansion, with Polish ruler duke Mieszko I taking over the lands of the Vistulan tribe (Lesser Poland area, with the major settlements of Sandomierz and Kraków) in the years 998–999. The Bohemian duke Boleslaus II contested Mieszko's actions, and their armies clashed in Silesia. The Bohemians received aid from the Veleti, while the Holy Roman Empire helped the Poles and after a short conflict the Bohemians were defeated, with Mieszko also acquiring Silesia for Poland (with territories around Krosno and Niemcza).

There are relatively few accurate historical accounts from this period, and much of the account of the war is based on the chronicles of Thietmar of Merseburg and archaeological discoveries. Thietmar, however, while devoting some space to the conflict itself, did not discuss the reasons for it, which modern historians can only speculate about. There is also evidence that Mieszko might have controlled parts of Silesia as early as mid-980s, and it has been speculated that the reason for the war might have not been over Lesser Poland, but about the territorial disputes in Silesia itself.

Aftermath 
This conflict is the first recorded Polish–Bohemian War; several others would follow in decades and centuries to come.

BRUIE (Buoyant Rover for Under-Ice Exploration) is an autonomous underwater vehicle prototype by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory.  The prototype began underwater testing in 2012 and it is meant to eventually explore the interior of water worlds in the Solar System, such as Europa or Enceladus.

Overview

On Earth, aquatic life is often found at the ice-water interface, so researchers designed the robotic rover to be buoyant and use its two wheels ( each) to roll along beneath the ice and look for life or their biosignatures. Scientists can also learn a lot from the topography of the underside of the ice, including how the ice forms. And the ice can act as a trap for gases, either from biological or geological processes.

The first BRUIE prototype began testing in 2012 in an Arctic lake in Alaska, and in Antarctica in 2019. The principal investigator is Andy Klesh at JPL; the co-investigators are Kevin Hand, Dan Berisford, John Leichty and Josh Schoolcraft. Astrobiologist Kevin Hand at JPL is the lead scientist.

Description
The rover resembles a bar  long, with two large  studded wheels at each end. BRUIE features cameras, lights, and eventually it will be equipped with wireless communication to remotely navigate autonomously without a tether. It can also carry some scientific instruments, which would be incorporated later if preliminary testing goes well. 

BRUIE uses buoyancy to remain anchored against the ice and resist water currents. The sealed air-filled cylindrical body, along with closed-cell foam inside of cone-shaped wheels, provides buoyancy force to enable roving along the underside of the ice. In can safely power down to save battery, turning on only when it needs to take a measurement, so it could spend months observing the under-ice environment at time intervals.

Challenges

One obstacle facing aquatic vehicles like BRUIE is how to deliver it through the thick ice shell. On Europa, the ice sheet could be up to  thick. One preliminary concept for delivering such vehicles through the ice shell is a nuclear-powered tunneling robot called Cryobot, proposed by German engineers. Heat from nuclear power would melt the ice and the penetrator would propel itself through the hole. Once through, the attached aquatic vehicle could be deployed to explore. The 2025 Europa Clipper orbiter will measure the ice shell thickness of Europa, which will help determine if a vehicle pair like BRUIE and Cryobot are a possible next step.

James Chang-Ling Wong (; 17 February 190027 April 1970) was Chinese Anglican (Episcopalian) bishop who served as Bishop of Jesselton in Sarawak from 1962 to 1964 and then Bishop of Taiwan from 1965 until his death in 1970.

Wong was consecrated a bishop on 3 February 1960, by Ronald Hall, Bishop of Victoria, at St Thomas' Cathedral, Kuching; to serve as Assistant Bishop of Borneo. He was then elected the first bishop of the new Diocese of Jesselton (now Sabah), when it separated from the Diocese of Borneo in 1962.

Having retired from Jesselton on 30 September, Wong was elected the first Chinese Bishop of Taiwan by the House of Bishops of The Episcopal Church at the General Convention on 21 October 1964. The diocese had previously been under the care of a suffragan of the Bishop of Hawaii.

He was the first Bishop in the Anglican Communion to come out of the background of the voluntary priesthood, serving from 1965 until his death in 1970. He had previously served as Bishop of Guangzhou, an assistant bishop of Victoria diocese from his 1960 consecration by Ronald Hall until his appointment to Jesselton.

The 1969–70 Marquette Warriors men's basketball team represented Marquette University during the 1969–70 men's college basketball season. The Warriors finished the regular season with a record of 26–3. The season is particularly notable as coach Al McGuire turned down a bid to the 1970 NCAA Tournament after the committee placed the tenth-ranked Warriors in the Midwest region instead of the geographically closer Mideast, the first team to ever take this action. McGuire opted to play in the 1970 National Invitation Tournament instead, where they defeated Massachusetts, Utah and LSU to advance to the NIT championship where they defeated St. John's to become NIT champions. As a direct result of this action, the NCAA forbid its members from declining NCAA tournament bids when offered moving forward.

Brian Leftow (born 1956) is an American philosopher specializing in philosophy of religion, medieval philosophy, and metaphysics. He is the William P. Alston Professor for the Philosophy of Religion at Rutgers University. Previously, he held the Nolloth Chair of the Philosophy of the Christian Religion at Oriel College, Oxford, succeeding Richard Swinburne.

Education and Career

Leftow is a graduate of Grove City College, and earned his M.A and Ph.D. at Yale University.  Before becoming Nolloth Professor of the Philosophy of the Christian Religion at the University of Oxford, Leftow taught at Fordham University.  In fall 2018, he took up the William P. Alston Chair in Philosophy of Religion at Rutgers University.

Philosophical Work

Leftow's research interests include metaphysics, medieval philosophy, and philosophical theology. He proposed the so-called "Latin Trinity", which examined the tradition of Latin theories involving the Trinity. He likened this to an individual performing three roles, three events, and three time streams that are distinct for such individual but they occur simultaneously for others. Leftow has focused on the works of Thomas Aquinas, drawing from his arguments to theorize on God's omnipresence. On this subject, he noted that there is widespread consensus that God is eternal but there are disagreements regarding what it means. Leftow is also credited for proposing an explanation about the constant change in God prior to creation - that "God can delay creating to enjoy anticipating a universe and/or desiring to create one."
