In 2016, sportswriter Joe Posnanski of NBC Sports described Pujols as "a cautionary tale against big contracts" and "an overpaid designated hitter in the middle of the lineup for a going-nowhere Los Angeles Angels team". In an August 7, 2018 article entitled "How the shift has ruined <mask>", ESPN sportswriter Alden Gonzalez wrote: "The recent proliferation of defensive shifts has made it exceedingly difficult for power hitters to turn batted balls into hits, prompting an infatuation with launch angles and breeding a widespread acceptance of strikeouts. Few have been victimized more than Pujols, the aging slugger who still makes frequent contact but no longer runs well...[T]he modern game is especially unforgiving to older hitters, and it has intensified the decline of arguably the greatest first baseman in baseball history." During his time with the Angels, Pujols made the All-Star Team once (in

With his longtime number 5 having been assigned to Corey Seager, Pujols chose the number 55; both as nods to his two former teams, as well as the Bible. "If you know the bible," Pujols explained, "it’s the number of grace.So I feel 5-5, double grace." On May 20, <mask> hit his first home run as a Dodger, a two-run homer off Merrill Kelly of the Arizona Diamondbacks. In October 2021, Scott Miller of The New York Times asserted that <mask> had "flourished beyond expectations, scorching lefties for a .306 batting average".

If <mask> was brought in from outside of Lexington to live with the <mask> family, his arrival should have been registered with the town selectmen.There is no such entry for <mask>. While the lack of registration is not definitive, it makes it more likely that he was born into the Estabrook home as the son of another slave, Tony.

By 1775, <mask> would have been one of a small number of slaves in Lexington. Estimates range from as few as five to as many as 24. Slavery in New England was very different than slavery in the south, and it is likely that <mask> spent his days doing farm labor alongside of Benjamin and helping with household chores.There are also reports that Benjamin and <mask> were quite friendly, with <mask> even helping Benjamin to sell horses.

Shortly after the riders left to continue to Concord, Captain John Parker sounded the alarm in order to assemble the Lexington militia on the common sometime after 1 a.m. With no British troops in sight, the militia was told to disperse, but to stay in the area where they could hear the drums if called to reassemble. Many took up in Buckman Tavern directly across the street from Lexington green.When called to reassemble several hours later, there was an estimated 77 militia soldiers gathered on the green. The soldiers took a defense stance as an estimated 700 British troops approached. Although law may have prevented him from training with the militia, <mask> was among those who answered the call.

<mask> returned to Lexington after the war as a free man. It is often stated that Benjamin granted <mask> his freedom, but the Quock Walker case effectively outlawed the practice by the time <mask> returned from the war. In whatever way <mask> gained his freedom, he remained with Benjamin's family upon his return. The 1790 census shows <mask>'s household included a “non-white freeman” as a resident. <mask> likely remained with Benjamin as a paid farmhand during this period.

 information on Korean air operations, CFE obtained approval from USAF Chief of Staff, Hoyt Vandenberg, to send four RAF pilots to observe and report. Second World War ace, Wing Commander John Baldwin, Squadron Leader <mask>, and two junior officers were selected for this task. <mask>'s specific assignment was with the USAF 4th Fighter Group to evaluate combat tactics used by the F-86 against the Soviet MiG-15.On 13 February 1952, <mask> reported to Colonel Harrison Thyng, commander of the 4th Fighter-Interceptor Wing at Kimpo Air Base, South Korea where he was assigned to the 335th Fighter Squadron. After attending "Clobber College", a program where newly arrived pilots flew training sorties with experienced instructors, <mask> once again found himself flying combat missions. He enjoyed the flying and considered himself lucky for the opportunity to "observe the air war along the Yalu River, arguably the best seat in the house". <mask> was credited with damaging a MiG-15 in combat and was awarded the United States Air Medal. After Baldwin failed to return from a weather reconnaissance mission, responsibility for completing the final report fell to <mask>. Despite the short notice and with little knowledge of the details Baldwin had intended to include, <mask> completed a 152-page report that evaluated the operational characteristics of the F-86 and the tactics used against the MiG-15. Senior command
After completing his tour in Korea, <mask> was once again flying the F-86 as commander of No.67 Squadron of the RAF Second Tactical Air Force at RAF Wildenrath in West Germany.

<mask> was promoted to air vice marshal in January 1975 and shortly thereafter appointed commander of No. 11 Group RAF responsible for the air defence of the United Kingdom.

At the end of his tour, <mask> retired from the Royal Air Force. Later years
After retiring from the RAF on 31 March 1977, <mask> joined British Aerospace (BAe) and returned to the United States as vice president of their Government Programs Office in Washington, D.C.He continued working as a consultant for the company after retiring from BAe. Nearly fifty years after its original publication, Harbison's report found new life as a training guide included in the computer game, MiG Alley. Impressed by the mix of technical and tactical analysis that applied just as much to a 1999 flight simulation as to real jet combat in 1952, one reviewer described Harbison's report as, "the best game strategy guide I've ever read." <mask> remained active in the aviation community after his second retirement, attending reunions and speaking at symposiums including:

<mask> (born October 30, 1961) is an American filmmaker and producer. Particularly focused on true crime documentaries, <mask>'s films and docu-series draw attention to social justice issues in the US and abroad in such films as Brother's Keeper, Paradise Lost: The Child Murders at Robin Hood Hills, Crude, Whitey: United States of America v. James J. Bulger and Intent To Destroy: Death, Denial and Depiction. A 2017 HuffPost article said "Brother's Keeper (1992) and the Paradise Lost trilogy (1996–2011) helped pioneer the style of documentary filmmaking [seen] in Netflix's recent true crime sensation, Making a Murderer—a combination of artful cinematography, a stirring musical soundtrack, and a dramatic narrative structure as compelling as any scripted film." <mask> spearheaded and directed two 2019 projects centered on the infamous serial killer Ted Bundy: the Netflix docu-series Conversations with a Killer: The Ted Bundy Tapes, and the drama film Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile, starring Zac Efron. Early life and education

<mask> was born to a Jewish family in Bridgeport, Connecticut. He graduated from Colgate University in 1983 with a B.A. in German Language.Early career
After graduating from Colgate University, Berlinger took a position working at an advertising agency in Frankfurt, Germany. He soon transitioned into the world of film, working as an apprentice to the iconic documentarians Albert and David Maysles. <mask> met his future directing partner, Bruce Sinofsky, while they were both employed by the Maysles. Together they would make their directing debut with the 1992 film Brother's Keeper. Collaboration with Bruce Sinofsky
Working as a directing duo, <mask> and Sinofsky created the landmark documentary Brother's Keeper (1992), which tells the story of Delbert Ward, an uneducated elderly man in Munnsville, New York, who was charged with second-degree murder following the death of his brother William. Film critic Roger Ebert called it "an extraordinary documentary about what happened next,

 as a town banded together to stop what folks saw as a miscarriage of justice." The pair went on to direct the Paradise Lost Trilogy--Paradise Lost: The Child Murders at Robin Hood Hills (1996), Paradise Lost 2: Revelations (2000), and Paradise Lost 3: Purgatory (2011), which earned the pair an Academy Award nomination.The trilogy, shot over two decades, focused on the West Memphis Three, a group of teenagers who were wrongfully convicted of the brutal murder of three children. The trilogy raised doubts about the legitimacy of the teenagers' convictions and spurred a movement to release them from prison, where one of the men was awaiting a death sentence. In 2011, the West Memphis Three were released from their respective death and life sentences after filing an Alford Plea with the Federal Court of Arkansas.Metallica: Some Kind of Monster (2004), called "one of the most revelatory rock portraits ever made" follows the popular heavy metal band Metallica. Berlinger and Sinofsky capture the group at a crossroads, as bassist Jason Newsted quits the band and frontman James Hetfield abruptly leaves to enter a rehabilitation facility due to alcohol abuse. The film was critically acclaimed for capturing Metallica, a global phenomenon, at a moment of true vulnerability. Sinofsky died on February 21, 2015 at the age of 58, from diabetes-related complications. The band Metallica paid tribute to him as a "courageous man with deep empathy and wisdom who wasn't afraid to dig deep to tell the story."Berlinger wrote that Sinofsky's "humanity is on every frame of the films that he leaves behind."
