Lazio
On 30 July 2014, <mask> joined Serie A club Lazio for an undisclosed fee. He said "Lazio really proved that they wanted me and I am very happy I have made this move. I hope to become a more complete defender in Italy."<mask> had been widely expected to follow his international manager Louis van Gaal to Manchester United.

title: Rob Zicari

type: original

texts:
<mask><mask> (born August 5, 1974), also known as <mask>, is an American pornographer, radio host and professional wrestling promoter. Together with his then-wife Janet Romano (a.k.a. Lizzy Borden) he owned the porn company Extreme Associates. Zicari was prosecuted for distribution of obscenity by the United States Department of Justice in 2004. The case was dismissed but was reinstated upon appeal in 2005. Zicari entered into a plea agreement with the government in 2009, ending the case. (See United States v. Extreme Associates.)Career
<mask>, son of an adult bookstore owner, started out as a porn director in the mid 1990s. His former porn company Extreme Video was started in 1993/1994 and eventually developed into the present-day Extreme Associates. Black appeared as himself in the documentary film Sex: The Annabel Chong Story (1999). His work often involved scenes considered egregious and extreme even by other members of the pornography industry, such as adult performers acting as young girls, or a simulated rape of a disabled person in a wheelchair in Miscreants (1997). In 1998, he founded the porn company, Extreme Associates, together with fellow porn directors Tom Byron and Van Damage and porn star Tiffany Mynx (who have since left the company). Janet Romano started to work for him in the same year, first as an actress and then as a director. Beginning in 2000, Zicari and AVN Magazine engaged in a "propaganda war" against one another, and as a result, Black's products were not reviewed or advertised in that trade magazine for several years.In 2001 <mask> (as <mask>) unsuccessfully ran for mayor of Los Angeles, receiving 789 votes. <mask> is nephew to porn entrepreneur <mask>, a.k.a. Chuck Zane and cousin to fellow pornographers Mark and Matt Zane. Obscenity prosecution

The filming of Lizzy Borden's movie Forced Entry, which included several simulated rapes, was covered in the PBS Frontline documentary American Porn (2002); the makers of the documentary were repulsed and walked off the set. The filming of the movie was also a part of documentary produced for BBC 2 hosted by Louis Theroux which follows various figures of the porn industry. Theroux also leaves the set in a similar manner to that of the PBS documentary. After, Zicari was interviewed in the documentary and challenged Attorney General John Ashcroft.These scenes possibly led to the subsequent undercover operation by federal authorities. In April 2003, the premises of Extreme Associates were raided by federal agents. <mask>, his then wife Lizzy Borden and his company were indicted for distributing obscene pornographic materials. The case is United States v. Extreme Associates. <mask>'s company is located in Northridge near Los Angeles, but the trial took place in Pittsburgh, from where under-cover agents had ordered the offending materials. <mask> remained in business during the trial; he continued to market and sell the five tapes that are at the center of the prosecution as The Federal Five, with a portion of the sales price going to his defense fund. Note that buyers of those materials do not break the law, since mere possession of obscenity (unlike production and distribution) is not illegal.In April 2004, Zicari engaged in a public dispute with fellow pornographer Larry Flynt, who also had to fight various obscenity trials in the past. Zicari asked the adult industry for financial support to aid in his defense; Flynt declined, saying that he only promotes consensual sex and that Zicari's actions harmed the industry as a whole. Zicari's lawyer H. Louis Sirkin initially argued that laws against the distribution of obscenity were unconstitutional since people have a right to own obscenity, but this argument was rebuffed on appeal. After 6 years of legal costs, Black and his wife both pleaded guilty to the reinstated federal obscenity charges in hopes to avoid more extensive loss and penalties if they lost at actual trial. Zicari and his wife were both sentenced to one year and one day in prison on July 1, 2009. In late September the couple began serving their prison sentences, Zicari at La Tuna Federal Correctional Institution in Texas and his wife at Waseca Federal Correctional Institution in Minnesota. Instead of reporting to the intended minimum-security satellite facility, Zicari mistakenly reported to the prison's primary facility, where officials placed him in solitary confinement for nearly a month because it "was the only space they had available".In March 2013, Zicari revealed on his radio show, The <mask> Show, that he was actually placed in solitary because he was mistakenly designated as a sex offender because of the obscenity charges. Xtreme Pro Wrestling
In 1999, <mask> and Tom Byron founded the Xtreme Pro Wrestling (XPW) independent professional wrestling promotion. He appeared on shows as the owner as well as a manager under the name of <mask>. His heel (bad guy) stable was called the "Black Army" and featured wrestlers such as John Kronus, Terry Funk, Abdullah the Butcher, and Juventud Guerrera. XPW folded in 2003 because of issues related to the obscenity prosecution, and in 2004 Zicari sold the company's footage to Xtreme Entertainment Group. In 2012, Zicari regained control and ownership of XPW. XPW was to make a comeback in late 2013, but the project never materialized due to insufficient backing.The <mask> Show
In March 2013, Zicari launched The <mask> Show on Blog Talk Radio. The Daily Beast called him "Porn's Dirty Whistleblower" for revealing unsafe practices on set, business arrangements that exploit performers and common sidelines such as porn talent agents working their charges on escort sites.

title: Helen Escobedo

texts:
<mask>Elena<mask> (July 28, 1934 – September 16, 2010) was a Mexican sculptor and installation artist who has had work displayed all over the world from Mexico, Latin America, the United States, and Canada to the United Kingdom, (Germany), as well Israel and New Zealand. Her career as an artist spanned more than fifty years and explores ecological and urban problems through land art. Her works are site-oriented and ephemeral. Early life
<mask> was born on July 28, 1934 to a Mexican lawyer father and an English mother in Mexico City. She was educated in her home in a small neighborhood setting with her younger brother Miguel, taught by a French governess until the age of ten. At a young age, she learned ballet until she outgrew it. She was taught violin by Sander Roth, who at the time was a member of the world-famous Lener Quartet.Even though she became proficient with her violin skills, Escobedo eventually decided to switch to art. Education
At the age of 15 in 1949, she decided to enroll at the Mexico City College and attended art classes in the afternoon twice a week. At Motolinia University, she took art classes under an abstract sculptor, Germán Cueto where she experimented with many different materials. Impressed by her work, Professor John Skeaping, a British sculptor from the Royal College of Art, encouraged her to pursue sculpture. He offered her a one-year grant to study in London at his institution, where she attended eventually with a three-year scholarship. She studied under the guidance of Frank Dobson, Henry Moore, Jacob Epstein, Leon Underwood, and for a short time, Ossip Zadkine. In her second year, she wrote her thesis: Renoir and Degas: Two Impressionists in Sculpture.She got her bachelor's degree in Humanities at Motolinia University in Mexico and her master's degree in Sculpture from the Royal College of Art in London, U.K. by 1954 at the age of 20. Career
Aside from sculpture, <mask> was a talented painter, printmaker, installation artist, writer, performance artist, lecturer, curator, and museum director in her lifetime. <mask> accepted the position be the head and served as director of the Museo de Arte Moderno and the Department of Museums and Galleries at the Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico (UNAM) in 1960, where she worked until 1978, organizing exhibitions. As she worked as director, she continued her craft and completed commissions as well as exhibitions of her own work. She would go on to serve as the Director of the Museum of Modern art between 1982 and 1984. From 1985 to 1989, she worked as an art curator of the Museum of the UNAM, specializing in international exhibitions. Having left her directorial role in art administration, <mask> decided to concentrate on her own work.Exhibitions
Her first solo exhibition was held in 1956 at the Galeria de Arte Mexicano in Mexico City. It included her works made of bronze, drawings, and paintings. After marrying Fredrik Kirsebom, a Norwegian, they moved to Sweden where Escobedo spent two years learning about her new home and making some religious sculptures that would be shown in her second solo exhibition at the Galería de Arte Mexicano when she returned to Mexico two years later. In 1968, Mathias Goeritz invited her to participate in the Ruta de la Amistad (Route of Friendship) for the XIX 1968 Summer Olympics in Mexico City, for which she made the sculpture called Puertas al Viento (Gateway to the Wind). The Route of Friendship was constructed to be an Olympic highway consisting of monumental sculptures made by selected artists. It was her first large-scale sculpture piece. In the same year, Escobedo set up an exhibition, self-produced and curated by Willoughby Sharp featuring fifteen large-scale environments made by many individual international artists.When <mask> mounted her Dynamic Walls exhibition, it traveled to different cities starting in Prague but eventually became lost on its journey to Rome. It reappeared in 1971 in poor condition that resulted in her method of creating temporary or ephemeral works at the location for a one-time installation rather than let her work travel and become ruined again. This would become her signature, known internationally, to create site-oriented ephemeral sculptures using materials that are available at or near the site. <mask> created a paper mural at the Galería Pecanins in Barcelona in 1973. The following year, she held another exhibit at the Museum of Modern Art and at this point, was also the director of the Department of Museums and Galleries. In 1978, <mask> created Coatl, at the University Cultural Center of UNAM in Mexico City, out of steel girders painted yellow to orange to red measuring to 15 meters. As a statement, her exhibit called Negro basura, negro mañana (Black garbage, black tomorrow) in 1991 was made up of painted black garbage, three meters wide stretching at one hundred feet inside Chapultepec Park in Mexico City that lasted three days.As the years go by, she participated in many other exhibitions throughout the world.Her next solo exhibition show was called Estar y no estar and was displayed at the University Museum in 2000. Two years later, she did three exhibitions, one in Mexico City called Salón Bancomer and the other two in Germany called Die Fluctlinge: The Refugees and Bicycle Taxi. The following year she returned to her home of Mexico City for her escasr Ríos Perenes exhibit. Through 2007 to 2008, <mask> continued her exhibitions in various locations with another in Germany as well as another four in Mexico. At Wakefield in the United Kingdom, she had a solo exhibition called Summer Field. In 2010, she would have her last solo exhibition in her home of Mexico City under her own name. Awards
Escobedo competed in the UNAM sculpture competition and was awarded a prize in 1976.Entering with a small team of two other architects to design a building in 1980, they received the outstanding achievement Reaseguradora Patria for winning. She was awarded the Guggenheim Fellowship for Creative Arts, Latin America & Caribbean in 1991. In 1999, she was awarded the FONCA creators’ grant. Publications
Escobedo was also a writer whose works were published in public collections. She even conceived and coordinated a book in 1989 called Mexican Monuments: Strange Encounters that was printed in both Spanish and English that was met with equal success. It was her way of recording her Mexican heritage with the help of Paolo Gori. In 1999, she contributed an article entitled, “Work as process or work as product: a conceptual dilemma” to the compilation of Mortality Immortality?: The Legacy of 20th-century. In 2004, Graciela Schmilchuk wrote a book filled with Escobedo's s installations called <mask>o: Steps on the Sand'' with a prologue written by Dore Ashton. Later life
<mask> had two children with Fredrik Kirsebom, Andrea in 1962 and a son, Michael in 1964. She obtained a divorce in 1977. Her mother died following the 1985 Mexico City earthquake. By 1987, <mask> decided to split her year, six months at a time between living in Mexico and in Germany with her partner Hans-Jürgen Rabe whom she married in 1995. In 2003, Escobedo had a hip-bone replacement due to a sudden fall.Her first granddaughter was born as she celebrated her seventieth birthday in 2004. She lived in Mexico City, Sweden, Germany, Hamburg, and Berlin

title: Patrick Edward Connor

texts:
<mask> (March 17, 1820 – December 17, 1891) was an American soldier who served as a Union general during the American Civil War. He is most notorious for his massacres against Native Americans during the Indian Wars in the American Old West. Early life and career
<mask> was born in rural County Kerry, Ireland on St. Patrick's Day, 1820. He emigrated to the United States and enlisted, as "<mask>'<mask>", in the United States Army on November 28, 1839. In addition to service in the Seminole Wars, he served as a dragoon at Fort Leavenworth, Fort Atkinson, Fort Sandford, and at the second Fort Des Moines. He was honorably discharged as a private on November 28, 1844, and after two years in New York, he moved to Texas. On April 5, 1845, he became a naturalized citizen.Mexican–American War
<mask> joined the Texas Volunteers in May 1846 using the name "P<mask> <mask>", serving as a first lieutenant in the Texas Foot Riflemen during the Mexican–American War. On July 7, 1846, at Galveston, he was mustered into the United States Army as a first lieutenant, enlisting for 12 months. His independent company of Texas Volunteers under the command of Captain Charles A. Seefield was ordered to Port Lavaca on Matagorda Bay as a part of General John E. Wool's Army of the Center, which was slated to invade Mexico. Marching through Monclova, Parras, and Saltillo, the company, now under <mask>'s command as a captain, and attached to the 2nd Illinois Volunteers under the command of Colonel William H. Bissell, fought in the Battle of Buena Vista in February 1847. The company saw heavy action and <mask> was wounded in the hand; two of his lieutenants and 13 men were killed. <mask> was honorably discharged on May 24, 1847, near Monterey, Mexico, resigning due to rheumatism. When the California Gold Rush began, he crossed Mexico from Texas and arrived in California on January 22, 1850.California
Upon  his arrival in California, <mask> was involved in a boating accident in the Pacific Ocean while attempting to establish a new settlement near the mouth of the Trinity River. <mask> and his men were unaware that the Trinity River empties into the Klamath River instead of the Pacific. Of the 10 people in the whale boat attempting to navigate the heavy surf, five drowned. On May 28, 1853, <mask> was called by Harry S. Love to be his lieutenant in the company of California State Rangers with 20 other experienced Mexican–American War veterans. They hunted down and killed Mexican outlaw Joaquin Murrieta and three others of his gang and captured two others, breaking up the so-called "Five Joaquins".The rest of the Rangers and he  were well-rewarded by the state before being disbanded. Civil War
When the American Civil War broke out, <mask> was in command of the "Stockton Blues", a unit in the California Militia. He brought the strength of the unit up to regimental size and it became the 3rd Regiment California Volunteer Infantry.His regiment was ordered to the Utah Territory to protect the overland routes from Indians and quell a possible Mormon uprising. While in Utah, <mask>, as senior officer, became commander of the District of Utah, Department of the Pacific, on August 6, 1862, establishing Camp Douglas at Salt Lake City in October, but became discontented with his assignment. His men and he wished to head to Virginia where the real fighting and glory was occurring. When Major General Henry W. Halleck (a personal friend of <mask>'s) became the general-in-chief of the Union armies, <mask> pleaded that his men had enlisted to fight traitors. He offered to withhold $30,000 from the regiment's pay to ship the troops to the eastern battlefields. Halleck suggested that <mask> reconnoiter the Salt Lake City area. <mask> did so and established Fort Douglas in a commanding position over the city, despite the wishes of the Mormons.Brigham Young tried through his personal representative to Congress John F. Kinney to displace federal troops. However, through the efforts of Governor James Duane Doty and Colonel <mask>, federal troops were sequestered at Fort Douglas by Washington and the Pacific Theatre commanding general. In October 1863, <mask> and Governor Doty signed peace treaties with the remaining hostile Indian tribes, thereby bringing to a close all Indian hostilities within the Utah Territory. Shortly after the signing of the treaties, officers and enlisted men of the California Volunteers stationed at Fort Douglas established the first daily Utah newspaper called The Union Vedette. This newspaper offered a balance of news unavailable through the LDS Church-owned Deseret News. <mask> provided protection for non-Mormons and those wishing to leave the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints during his three years of service in Utah. He also discovered valuable mineral wealth in Utah that was reported to his superiors.This led to the gradual immigration of non-Mormons into Utah that led to weakening of the power of the LDS Church on everyday affairs in the territory. <mask> engaged in extensive military correspondence, which was published in 1897 under The War of the Rebellion: A Compilation of the Official Records of the Union and Confederate Armies. <mask> remained in command of the District of Utah until it was merged in March 1865 into the District of the Plains, established at his suggestion that a "Department of the Plains" be created which he would command. The new district, in the Department of the Missouri, combined the former districts of Utah (redesignated West Subdistrict), Nebraska Territory (East Subdistrict), Colorado Territory (South SubdDistrict), and the Territory of Idaho (North Subdistrict). <mask> was named commander of the new district. Bear River Massacre

In the early 1860s, population pressures in the Washington Territory near the present-day IdahoUtah border led to conflicts between immigrant settlers and Native Americans. After an attack on miners with depositions given in Salt Lake City by the survivors, <mask> marched his regiment 140 mi over the frozen winter landscape to "deal" with the Indians.On January 29, 1863, <mask>'s troops encountered a Shoshone encampment along the Bear River. <mask> and his militia crossed the river and attacked the camp, then feigned a retreat only to encircle the camp and renew their attack. <mask> sent additional troops to block the Indian escape route through a ravine, and sent the rest of his soldiers on a flanking maneuver to a ridge, from where they fired down into the Indians. The soldiers also fired on Indians as they attempted to escape by swimming across the bitterly cold river. The troops killed nearly all of the Indians in the encampment, aside from about 160 women and children, who were later released and given some wheat to help feed them. The Shoshone had been supplied by the Mormons and large quantities of wheat and articles of war were captured by <mask>'s command after the battle at Bear River. According to <mask>, an Indian survivor later said that the large band of Indians was planning on destroying the town of Franklin in modern-day Idaho.<mask>'s dispatches are detailed in The War of the Rebellion: A Compilation of the Official Records of the Union and Confederate Armies of the Pacific Theater. For a less biased view, Brigham Madsen's book The Northern Shosoni tells a different story. Post-war activities

Powder River Expedition

After the Bear River Massacre, <mask> was appointed brigadier general in the Volunteer Army. From July to September 1865, he led the punitive Powder River Expedition against Sioux, Cheyenne, and Arapaho Indians who were attacking travelers along the Bozeman Trail and overland mail routes. <mask>'s 2,600 men were organized into three widely separated units, which traversed hundreds of miles of what would become Montana and Wyoming. As the expedition began, <mask>'s orders to his officers were, "You will not receive overtures of peace or submission from Indians, but will attack and kill every male Indian over 12 years of age." <mask>'s superiors countermanded this order.The soldiers were harassed by Indians, who avoided pitched battles. <mask> established Fort Connor, later Fort Reno, and destroyed an Arapaho village at the Battle of the Tongue River. His Pawnee scouts also ambushed and killed a band of 24 Cheyenne warriors. Most of the time, however, <mask>'s three units were on the defensive, fending off Indian raids on their horses and supply wagons, which left many soldiers on foot, in rags, and reduced to eating raw horse meat. On the whole, the expedition was considered "a dismal failure" carried out with "large, ungainly columns filled with troops anxious to get home now that the Civil War was over." Later life
After the Civil War ended, <mask> was appointed a brevet major general in the Volunteer Army and mustered out of the volunteer service in 1866. Never having been in combat against the Confederacy in the East, he continued to command troops on the frontier.He recruited Confederate veterans for service against the Indians. Making his permanent residence in Salt Lake City, <mask> established one the city's first newspapers. He also became involved in mining again. He founded a city in Utah and named it Stockton in honor of his California militia unit. <mask> died in Salt Lake City, Utah Territory, in 1891 at the age of 71 and was buried there. See also

title: James P. Hosty

texts:
<mask>. (August 28, 1924 – June 10, 2011) was an American FBI agent officially assigned by FBI Headquarters to investigate ultra-leftist like members of the KKK and General Edwin Walker along with "his Minutemen in Dallas." <mask> himself said so on page 4 of his book Assignment Oswald (1996). FBI agent John Fain was the one assigned to investigate Lee Harvey Oswald. Oswald had just returned in June 1962 to the United States after his defection to the Soviet Union. Fain interviewed Oswald twice -- once in June 1962 and once in August 1962. After the second interview, Fain along with FBI Headquarters closed the FBI casefile on Oswald. General Edwin Walker was a well-known Anticommunist in his day, and all US Anticommunists were outraged that a defector to Communist Russia would be allowed to return to the Dallas area with a Russian bride.They demanded that the FBI continually investigate Oswald. Yet the FBI casefile was officially closed. <mask> tried to re-open the FBI casefile on Oswald several times in the next 9 months, but FBI Headquarters, including FBI Assistant Director Alan Belmont, rejected those requests. Belmont admitted this in his Warren Commission testimony. Hosty evidently kept a close eye on Oswald, anyway, through 1962 and 1963, without the sanction of FBI Headquarters. In early November 1963, Hosty made contact with Marina Oswald (a Soviet citizen) in order to interview her about her entry into the United States 17 months previous. Oswald wrote Hosty a hostile note to protest the alleged harassment of Marina.(Oswald also had <mask>'s name, phone number, and car license plate number in his address book.) <mask> failed to tell  the Warren Commission the truth about Oswald's hostile letter because he had destroyed it -- allegedly on his superior's orders. His superior, Gordon Shanklin, denied it. Because of this, Hosty attracted speculation as a possible conspirator in several conspiracy theories. The Warren Commission attorneys often asked how the FBI could either (1) be unaware of the dangers of Lee Harvey Oswald; or (2) be aware of Oswald's danger and yet fail to warn the Secret Service in Washington DC about this threat to JFK in Dallas. J. Edgar Hoover was asked this question numerous times in his own Warren Commission testimony, with ambiguous replies (which fed different JFK conspiracy theories). After those hearings, Hoover transferred <mask> to the FBI's slow-paced Kansas City office until his mandatory retirement in 1979.Hosty later wrote a memoir about the Kennedy assassination, titled Assignment: Oswald. In this book, Hosty claimed to have stumbled upon secret CIA information proving that Oswald killed JFK in collusion with Soviet consul Valeriy Kostikov. Hosty further claimed that J. Edgar Hoover and all of FBI Headquarters had deliberately prevented Hosty from learning the truth about Kostikov. Hosty, without any official confirmation, alleged that Kostikov was “the KGB's chief assassination expert for the Western hemisphere” (<mask>, 1996, p. 215). Since Oswald had admittedly met "Kostin" in Mexico City during the final week of September, 1963, Hosty concluded that the Soviets killed JFK with the aid of Lee Harvey Oswald. In this way, <mask> himself fostered a popular JFK conspiracy theory. It is noteworthy that Hosty's conspiracy theory was basically the same as that posed by General Walker, i.e.a 'Communist Conspiracy.' <mask>'s intrigue about Kostikov runs like a thread from the start to the finish of his 1996 book (Hosty, 1996, Index 'V.V. Kostikov'). Biography
<mask> was born on August 28, 1924, in Chicago, Illinois. He was one of seven children of Charlotte Irene and <mask> <mask> Sr., an executive in a sugar company in Chicago. Hosty served in the United States Military during World War II from 1942 to 1946 and graduated from the University of Notre Dame. He received an unsigned note from Lee Harvey Oswald about two weeks before the Kennedy assassination.The note asked Hosty to stop questioning Oswald's wife. Hosty filed it away. He first met Oswald on November 22, 1963. It was while he was interrogating Oswald on November 22 that he realized that the unsigned note he had received two weeks prior was from Oswald. He said that, on orders from his supervisor, he destroyed the note after Oswald was killed on November 24, 1963. Notes taken down by <mask> during his interrogation of Oswald on November 22, indicate that when Oswald was asked to account for himself at the time of the assassination, he claimed to have "went outside to watch P. Parade"  (referring to the presidential motorcade). The newly discovered Hosty interrogation notes, unearthed at NARA by former British Intelligence agent and JFK researcher, Malcolm Blunt, were recently featured for the first time in the 2020 NHK World-Japan documentary Oswald and JFK - Unsolved Cases, Part II: The Chessmaster (at 35:00 - 36:10).He retired from the Federal Bureau of Investigation in 1979. He died of prostate cancer on June 10, 2011, in Kansas City, Missouri. Portrayal in fiction
<mask> was portrayed in the 1991 Oliver Stone film JFK as having a central role in a government conspiracy to assassinate Kennedy and frame Oswald. In the 2011 Stephen King novel 11/22/63, Hosty questions the protagonist Jake Epping, a time traveler who has just narrowly prevented Oswald from killing the president. <mask> is suspicious of Epping because of what he knows about Oswald and his investigation by the FBI, but assists Epping in his efforts to quietly disappear, so that he may return to 2011. (The television adaptation has Epping returning to 2016.) In 2013, actor Ron Livingston portrayed <mask> in writer/director <mask>'s film Parkland, a film which recounts the chaotic events that occurred at Dallas' Parkland Hospital on the day JFK was assassinated.References

title: Scott D'Amore

texts:
<mask>'Amore (born August 8, 1974) is a Canadian retired professional wrestler, manager, promoter, booker and entrepreneur. He is the current Executive Vice President of Impact Wrestling, where he also worked from 2003 to 2010 as an on-screen manager. Professional wrestling career

Early career (1991–1996)
D'Amore began training with Doug Chevalier in 1991 at the age of sixteen. He debuted on June 14, 1992, defeating Otis Apollo in Amherstburg, Ontario. In 1993 he underwent further training under "Irish" Mickey Doyle, Denny Kass and Al Snow. He went on to work for World Championship Wrestling and the World Wrestling Federation as an enhancement talent from June 1993 to early 1996. While working for WCW, he frequently trained at the WCW Power Plant.Ric Flair's manager
D'Amore worked for a range of independent promotions. In 1995 D'Amore toured Germany with the World Cup of Wrestling. In 1996 he toured Japan with Wrestle Association R and England with the English Wrestling Federation. Later that year he formed a tag team with Dave Clark as "<mask>" known as "Gross Misconduct", with the duo depicting ice hockey players. In 1996 he briefly traded his hockey stick for a golf club and became "Chip Birdy", a golfer. D'Amore began working as a booker and producer for promotions throughout Canada. Border City Wrestling (1993–Present)
D'Amore founded Border City Wrestling in 1993 along with Doug Chevalier and Chuck Fader.He began booking in 1994 when Chevalier left the area, and took over the promotion of the company when Fader resigned in 2000, leaving D'Amore as the sole owner. In February 2000, D'Amore formed a stable known as The Syndicate when he allied himself with Rhyno to defeat D'Lo Brown. The Syndicate eventually expanded to include "Arrogant" Otis Apollo, Johnny Swinger, Fantasy and Don Callis. BCW ceased operations for several months in late 2000, before coming back in 2001. The first show of 2001 was held on March 7, and featured former Extreme Championship Wrestling talent including Tommy Dreamer, Johnny Swinger, Mikey Whipwreck, Sabu, Don "Cyrus" Callis and Nova (D'Amore had a tryout match with ECW in 1998, and befriended many ECW employees). All the aforementioned held titles in BCW. In addition to promoting and wrestling, D'Amore operates the Can-Am Wrestling School and trained dozens of wrestlers.He later turned face and began a heated feud with one of his students, A-1, in January 2005 after A-1 interrupted a Hall of Fame ceremony. After being mostly inactive from 2005 to 2007, D'Amore started running events again regularly under the Border City Wrestling banner in 2008. During that time BCW was still in operation, with less of a presence from D'Amore. BCW took a hiatus in 2010-2011 but returned with small shows in 2012. D'Amore then turned heel again by betraying one of his students of the CAN-AM Wrestling School and BCW Champion, Phil Atlas. At this time, The Syndicate re-emerged with a new group featuring Jon Bolen, Tyson Dux, Moose, and eventually Kongo Kong. BCW still runs shows in Windsor and Michigan and is partnered with Impact Wrestling.D'Amore very occasionally wrestles for the promotion, but is often seen in a managers role for The Syndicate. Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (2003–2010)
D'Amore began working with Total Nonstop Action Wrestling, TNA, as a road agent in 2003, and brought in Chris Sabin, one of his former pupils. In 2004, D'Amore took an onscreen role as the coach of Team Canada. The propensity of the TNA character of "Coach D'Amore" to interfere on Team Canada's behalf led to commentator Mike Tenay often referring to him as a "big fat load" and "Canadian bacon". D'Amore led Team Canada to numerous victories, feuding with Jerry Lynn, Dusty Rhodes and Dustin Rhodes. He also began working backstage as a creative team member and trainer, operating the TNA Academy along with Terry Taylor. On December 12, 2004, D'Amore organised a benefit show for Sabu, who was incapacitated with a serious back injury."A Night of Appreciation for Sabu" was held in Belleville, Michigan and featured wrestlers from TNA, BCW and ECW. In May 2005, D'Amore was appointed head of the TNA booking team. As a result of his increased offscreen workload, D'Amore opted to reduce his onscreen appearances. To explain his absence, D'Amore was attacked by Lance Hoyt at the Slammiversary PPV. Hoyt choke-slammed D'Amore and then hit him with a moonsault. D'Amore was taken on a stretcher as Team Canada spent weeks afterward talking about him being in the hospital. He came back as an on-screen force, however, when he used his BCW promotion in a plot to get Jeff Jarrett back the NWA World Heavyweight Championship.After that, he and Team Canada became fixtures in the Planet Jarrett stable. On November 13 at Genesis 2005, D'Amore tried to get the premiering Christian Cage, a longtime friend, to join Team Canada, and gave him a T-shirt to signify membership. At the end of the night, when Team Canada came out to help Jeff Jarrett beat down Team 3D, Christian came down. Under his Captain Charisma jacket, he was wearing the Team Canada shirt. After hugging D'Amore, however, he gave him the Unprettier and helped Team 3D put Jarrett through a table, doublecrossing his former friend. An all-or-nothing 8-man tag team match happened on the July 13 edition with them going against Rhino, Team 3D, and Jay Lethal, with a stipulation that the disbanding order would be null and void if Team Canada won; Jay Lethal pinned A-1, ending Team Canada's run as a group in TNA. Afterwards at Victory Road, D'Amore would say goodbye to the team once and for all, saying his farewells to all 4 members while blaming Young saying it was his fault they are disbanded.D'Amore has not been seen on Impact! until two years later on June 19, 2008, billed simply as a TNA Road Agent discussing Gail Kim. D'Amore then appeared on the July 17 episode of Impact!, only to get whipped by James Storm and Robert Roode. In July 2008 D'Amore's contract with TNA expired and he left to work in Border City Wrestling. However, in August 2009 D'Amore was hired back to TNA as the primary road agent for the Knockouts division. D'Amore left TNA on February 3, 2010, just as it was announced that BCW would be merging with BSE Pro to form Maximum Pro Wrestling. Global Force Wrestling (2014–2017)
In 2014, D'Amore became the Vice President of International Relations with Jeff Jarrett's new Global Force Wrestling (GFW) promotion.On August 10, D'Amore and Jarrett made an appearance for New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW), taking part in a ceremony, where Jarrett signed a working agreement between GFW and NJPW. Return to Impact Wrestling (2017–present)
Following the purchase of Impact Wrestling, Anthem Sports & Entertainment appointed Jeff Jarrett to run the promotion, Jeff brought back many former members of the TNA backstage personal, this included Dutch Mantel, Bruce Prichard and <mask>'Amore. Jarrett appointed D'Amore with the position he had been working in Global Force Wrestling: Vice President of International Relations. However Jeff Jarrett was fired from Impact Wrestling for gross misconduct. D'Amore then took on the role as Head of Creative with Impact. On December 5, D'Amore and Don Callis were announced as Impact Wrestling's new executive vice presidents. From May 2021, D'Amore has held this role alone, after Callis left his position.Wrestlers Trained

title: Moses Fletcher

<mask> (in Pilgrim records written by William Bradford his name is given as <mask>; c. 1564 – 1620/1) was a Leiden Separatist who came to America on the historic 1620 voyage of the Pilgrim ship Mayflower. He was a signatory to the Mayflower Compact and perished shortly thereafter in the Pilgrims first winter in the New World. Life in England
<mask> was born about 1564 in Kent County, England, probably in the Sandwich area. He seems to have lived much of his early life there, having married Mary Evans in 1589 and where all ten of his children were baptized. Per Banks, he was a smith by occupation with the parish register of St. Peter's, Sandwich providing information on his children's baptisms. Although being a sexton of St. Peter's, Sandwich between 1604 and 1609, <mask> found himself excommunicated by the church three times since by the early 1600s; he appears to have become involved in the Separatist movement. In 1609 he first found himself having a problem with church authorities when, on April 24 or 25, he was at the burial of a child of Andrew Sharpe which was considered an illegal burial as it was accomplished outside Church of England control.As recorded in church records, <mask> and others were "calling into question the lawlessness of the king's constitutions in this and other behalfs, affirming these things(s) to be popishly ceremonious and of no other force." The Separatists considered Anglican burial ceremonies "popish" and that they sponsored idola. On June 12, 1609, <mask>, along with the wife of future fellow Mayflower passenger James Chilton and several other persons were excommunicated from the Anglican church for the supposedly illegal burial.</ref>

On November 6, 1609, <mask> was excommunicated again for burying his own daughter Judith, according to church records, was "in the sermon time very disorderly and unseemly." His final excommunication from the church was proclaimed to churchgoers on February 11, 1610. Life in Leiden
It appears that in or after 1610, <mask> and his family departed Sandwich with the Chilton family and possibly others, traveling to Leiden in the Dutch Republic where they connected with the Separatist church which had been recently established there. <mask>'s wife Mary seems to have died either just before or soon after the family moved to Leiden. He remarried in Leiden to Sarah, widow of William Denby on December 21, 1613.The marriage record notes that <mask> was a blacksmith. Leiden records for <mask> and his family show that in 1616 he witnessed the betrothal of Zachariah Barrow to Joan Barrow. Two years later, in 1618, <mask>'s eldest son John married in Leiden to Josina Sacharias, a Dutch woman. Two other of his children, Priscilla and Elizabeth, are recorded as having married in Leiden later. On the Mayflower

<mask> came on the Mayflower without his family. It is unknown if his second wife Sarah had been left in Holland with his children or if she had died by that time. William Bradford notes <mask> as one of ten men traveling alone: "Moyses <mask>, John Goodman, Thomas Williams, Digerie Preist, Edmond Margeson, Peter Browne, Richard Britterige, Richard Clarke, Richard Gardenar, Gilbart Winslow."<mask> departed Plymouth, England aboard the Mayflower on September 6/16, 1620. The small, 100-foot ship had 102 passengers and a crew of about 30-40 in extremely cramped conditions. By the second month out, the ship was being buffeted by strong westerly gales, causing the ship's timbers to be badly shaken with caulking failing to keep out sea water, and with passengers, even in their berths, lying wet and ill. This, combined with a lack of proper rations and unsanitary conditions for several months, attributed to what would be fatal for many, especially the majority of women and children. On the way there were two deaths, a crew member and a passenger, but the worst was yet to come after arriving at their destination when, in the space of several months, almost half the passengers perished in cold, harsh, unfamiliar New England winter. On November 9/19, 1620, after about three months at sea, including a month of delays in England, they spotted land, which was the Cape Cod Hook, now called Provincetown Harbor. And after several days of trying to get south to their planned destination of the Colony of Virginia, strong winter seas forced them to return to the harbor at Cape Cod hook, where they anchored on November 11/21.The Mayflower Compact was signed that day. <mask> was a signatory to the Mayflower Compact and perished sometime in the first Pilgrim winter. Family

(1)  Mary Evans on October 30, 1589 at St. Peters Church, Sandwich, Kent, England. They had ten children between about 1590 and about 1609, eight of whom were baptized at St. Peters.

(2) Sarah _ Denby, widow of Englishman William Denby, in Leiden on December 21, 1613.<mask> was about age forty-nine years old at this time. There are no children recorded from this marriage. There is no date of her death, which is believed to have been in Holland. Her burial place is unknown. Of his children, only John, Priscilla and Elizabeth are known to have married. None of the children are known to have come to the New World. Children of <mask> and <mask>, all baptized at St. Peters Church in Sandwich, Kent:

No further record. Judith, died as an infant - buried on November 6, 1609 at St. Peters, Sandwich. Death and burial of <mask>
<mask> died sometime in the winter of 1620-1621. William Bradford recorded his death and that of other male passengers traveling alone: "Moyses <mask>, Thomas Williams, Digerie Preist, John Goodman, Edmond Margeson, Richard Britterige, Richard Clarke. All these died soon after their arrival, in the general sickness that befell. But Digerie Preist had his wife and children sent hither afterwards, she being (John) Allerton's sister.But the rest left no posteritie here." <mask> was buried in the Cole's Hill Burial Ground in Plymouth probably in an unmarked grave as were many of those Mayflower passengers who died that first winter. His name is memorialized on the Pilgrim Memorial Tomb on Coles Hill in Plymouth. Descendants of <mask>
At his death, he left ten children, with later research determining he had thirteen grandchildren and twenty great-grandchildren in Holland. Robert S. Wakefield notes that it is reasonable to suppose he has descendants living in the Netherlands or elsewhere today. Dr. Jeremy D. Bangs of the Leiden Pilgrim Documents Center believes he has evidence of such descendants living in Holland today. None of <mask>'s descendants are known to have come to colonial New England.The General Society of Mayflower Descendants lists fourteen members claiming descent from <mask> and his wife Mary. All of the lines are through his daughter Priscilla. References

title: John Dale (minister)

texts:
<mask> served as the pulpit minister at Glendale Road Church of Christ in Murray, Kentucky, one of the Church of Christ's largest congregations. His tenure began July 5, 1973 and he retired in 2012. He is married with two children and two grandchildren. He is a Kentucky Colonel and was named to the Board of Trustees of Freed-Hardeman University during their February 2001 annual meeting. His birthday is January 31. Audio recordings of many of his sermons are made available on the Internet, together with recorded devotionals from local AM radio station WNBS. Sunday morning sermons are longer and more in depth than the evening sermons and radio devotionals: in the latter, <mask> may choose a brief text or simple concept to explore for purposes of reflection and exhortation.Education
<mask> attended Freed-Hardeman University, Oklahoma Christian University, Murray State University, and Vanderbilt University. He was named "Mr. Freed-Hardeman" in 1966, graduating the same year. He was named Most Outstanding Senior Ministerial Student in 1968. His M.S. degree was conferred by Murray State University in 1970, with graduate work at Vanderbilt University and Louisiana Baptist University (an unaccredited institution). Theology
In his pulpit sermons, <mask> presents a mainstream conservative Church of Christ viewpoint. Creation
Though not insisting on a 24-hour day of the Creation story of Genesis, <mask> says he believes in it, and that those that believe in its impossibility have a great theological problem.He states that the universe was created with the "appearance of age." <mask> also denies theistic evolution. Test of faith
While <mask> was still young, his mother was confined to a mental institution. Shortly after her discharge, she committed suicide. Although <mask> rarely speaks of this in sermons, he has acknowledged in interviews that the tragedy resulted in significant soul-searching (particularly on the question of whether his mother was condemned to Hell). He ultimately decided that God is the only fair and just judge of people's souls, a determination that strengthened his faith. Community involvement
<mask> is a hands-on minister in his community, officiating at many weddings and funerals in the area.He is well known and respected in the public sphere of the broader community outside the congregation in which he is employed (he is a member of the local Hospice Board), and enjoys good relations with other sectors of the clerical community, with the notable exception of vocal critics within local congregations of non-Institutional Churches of Christ. <mask> was the guest speaker for the Leadership Commitment Event held at Hilldale Church of Christ in Clarksville, Tennessee on April 24, 1997. In 1999, <mask> was named Citizen of the Year by the Murray Chamber of Commerce. Jubilee 2000 Revival
On Tuesday, September 26, 2000, <mask> spoke to the congregants of St. Leo's Catholic Church in Murray during that church's "Jubilee 2000 Revival" program, organized to combat a decline in Catholic Church membership due to perceptions of exclusivity and intolerance towards other religious groups. The program was part of the larger Great Jubilee called for the year 2000 by <mask> II and celebrated by many Catholic and non-Catholic Christians around the world. In Murray, <mask> would speak before a minority Catholic group: his own congregation numbered some tenfold the membership of Murray's lone Catholic parish. <mask> was supported by elders and congregants from his own congregation who also attended the event.His topic was "Living Jubilee in Murray & Calloway County," or "Jubilee--What We Can Do Here in Murray/Calloway County?" Carolyn Haas reported on the event in the December 2000 edition of the Owensboro diocesan newsletter, in part featuring a quotation that would later be disputed, in part, by <mask> himself:

On Tuesday we welcomed Pulpit Minister <mask> [sic] from Murray's Glendale Church of Christ. We had all pews full as many Glendale Church of Christ members came to support both <mask> and our Revival. His topic was "Jubilee--What We Can Do Here in Murray/Calloway County?" Rev. Dole [sic] commented, "I appreciate this opportunity. Ray had told me, 'Just come, do whatever you want to do, say whatever you want to say.I trust you. You are not on trial.' I appreciate that. You are very warm and welcoming." He urged us all to continue to work together, reminded us that Jesus' blood was shed for all. He read  to explain how the peoples waited for the Messiah! Christ would come and bring about freedom from sin and blood shed for all to come before and after."Christ shed His blood for all mankind - no exceptions," <mask> said, and continued with praise for our community. He also had admonitions: go and sin no more. We were treated to a cappella singing as Song Director Curtis Darnall from Glendale Church led us all in seven songs; St. Leo's rafters rang with enormous voice power. Nearly six years later, on June 4, 2006, after the present article was created, <mask> took issue with part of this quotation in his Sunday morning sermon:

"By the way, some of you have been reading wikipedia.com. I'm featured there. I'm so honored to be included there in what is sometimes little more than a scandalous website. But when you read there that I referred to Ray Gates as "Father Ray," I want you to know, with all due respect to everybody, it ain't so.It never happened. I will deny it until my tongue cleaves to the roof of my mouth and I can't get enough breath to say another word. It didn't happen. And it won't happen. He's not my father. I have a heavenly father who's in a class all by himself. I had an earthly father who in my opinion was in a class all by himself.But there's not a human being on planet Earth deserving of a religious title in that sense and Jesus said so in . "And back in 2000 when we were doing all of these things with the Jubilee 2000 Celebration and the time that I appeared there on their program, Ray Gates (who was the parish priest at that time at St. Leo's Church here in Murray) when he and I talked about that we agreed early on: I'm <mask> and he's Ray. And I didn't mean to be disrespectful and he didn't either. When you call me by my first name I don't consider it disrespectful. Jesus said, 'Don't call any man on Earth father.'" In disputing the diocesan newsletter's characterisation of his remarks, <mask> was pointing out one of the tenets of his faith, that the styling of priests and other high members of the church, as "Father," a common practice in the Catholic Church, is not accepted among the Churches of Christ. Within the Churches of Christ, only God is referred to as the "Holy Father," while ministers and elders are referred to as "brothers in Christ."The more specific scriptural basis commonly cited for this doctrine is .

Immediately following the 2000 event, <mask> was derided as a "liberal" and as doctrinally "impure" for his participation in the event by some vocal critics in the Church of Christ community. Criticism was not long in coming, largely from conservative elements of local churches of Christ in the nearby communities of Almo and Princeton, but also from as far away as El Paso, Texas. <mask> drew fire for his participation in the ecumenical effort of the St. Leo Catholic Church because he offered no criticism of the doctrines or practices of the Catholic Church while assisting them in their effort. <mask> said that he was proud of the way in which different religious groups co-existed peacefully within the local community and even went on to minimize any differences between them declaring that even he and his wife "didn't agree on everything." Critics pointed out that <mask>'s participation in the event coupled with the conciliatory message he delivered only served to assist the Catholic Church in their ecumenical effort to improve their image. They identified this as a violation of Eph.5:11 and 2 <mask> 9. Criticism came from conservative commentators such as Michael Heath,  Walter W. Pigg, and non-institutionalist Brian Yeager. In his response to one letter of protest from Walter Pigg, <mask> distinguished his role at the event as "communication," and attempted to distance himself from the term "fellowship:"

My presence and participation in the program at St. Leo's was intended as the seizing of an opportunity to communicate with some of my religious neighbors with whom I do not share fellowship, but with whom I sincerely seek more and better discussion. However, during his participation in the event <mask> made no attempt to point out that he did not share fellowship with them. The same critic of <mask> brought the issue up again in April 2001, following his appointment to the Board of Trustees of Freed-Hardeman University, aligning <mask> with "liberal" figures such as Walt Leaver, Randy Harris, and F. LaGard Smith, and expressing disdain for the faculties of David Lipscomb University and Freed-Hardeman University. Media
According to his church's web site, <mask> is heard on a daily radio program on local radio station WNBS in Murray, Kentucky (which derives its call sign from the initials of local 19th century pre-Marconi wireless (induction) voice telephony pioneer Nathan B. Stubblefield.)References

<mask> (November 23, 1862 – May 7, 1943) was an American plant physiologist, botanist, educator and inventor. His scientific experiments led to the discovery of "puffed rice", a starting point for a new breakfast cereal that was later advertised as "Food Shot From Guns". Biography

Early life and education
<mask> was born  in Featherstone Township, Goodhue County, Minnesota. His parents <mask> and Britta Maria (Gustafsdotter) <mask> were Swedish-American immigrant. He grew up in Spring Creek Valley, ten miles from Red Wing, Minnesota. He seemed destined to follow his father into farming but changed course at twenty-seven, entering the University of Minnesota in 1890 to study agriculture. As a college senior in 1894, <mask> invented a "self-registering balance" that was bought by Bausch & Lomb Optical Company.Encouraged by his instructors, <mask> earned a master's degree in plant physiology in 1897. He then traveled to Munich, Germany, in June 1895 to study with leading botanists, earning a doctorate  at the University of Munich in plant physiology. A loan from his cousin, future Minnesota Governor John Lind helped fund the trip. Puffed rice
After completing his studies, <mask> accepted a position at Clemson Agricultural College and taught in South Carolina from 1896 to 1899. In 1901 he became the Curator of the Herbarium at Columbia University, which allowed him to do research at the New York Botanical Garden. He believed that a tiny speck of free water would be found in the nucleus of a starch crystal. To prove this, he tried an experiment in December 1901.He heated starch granules that were sealed in a glass tube until they showed signs of browning. <mask> theorized the water inside each grain would turn to steam. He suspected that a reaction within the starch would occur if he broke the tube and set the steam free. The scientist smashed the glass and the resulting explosion produced a stick of pure puffed starch. <mask>'s new breakfast food would make him a nationally known figure and the face of a Quaker Oats advertising campaign for almost a decade. <mask> traveled to Minneapolis for a meeting set up by John Lind and William C. Edgar (1856-1932),  editor of Northwestern Miller magazine. <mask> knew he needed investors if he was to turn his puffing process into a usable product.A group of twenty wealthy businessman offered support. They gave him a laboratory at Minneapolis Steel and Machinery Company to experiment with his ideas. <mask> took a four-by-thirty-six-inch gas pipe and sealed it with pipe heads on each end, one removable. He placed raw rice inside and rotated the cylinder while heating it. When a gauge showed what he felt was enough pressure, <mask> used a sledgehammer to knock loose the removable head. A shower of puffed rice burst from the device. The Minneapolis backers, though interested, sold their shares of the process to Quaker Oats Company.Quaker gave <mask> a Chicago laboratory but took little interest in his discoveries. <mask> finally captured attention at the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair. He brought eight bronze, twenty-inch-long cylinders that appeared to many onlookers to be small cannons. <mask> loaded each "cannon" with six pounds of raw rice and applied heat. When he uncapped them, a blizzard of expanded rice showered into a two-story-high, forty-foot-wide cage. Helpers bagged the rice and sold it for a nickel to delighted onlookers. By fair's end, <mask>'s team had puffed more than 20,000 pounds of rice and sold a quarter-million packages.He obtained patents on the process and started the Anderson Puffed Rice Company in 1905. American Cereal, a subsidiary the Quaker Oats Company, sold his new product as a breakfast cereal called Puffed Rice. Two years later Quaker Oats took over production. <mask> partnered with Quaker Oats and developed puffed rice and wheat products, including the cereal Quaker Crackles. Quaker Oats advertised puffed cereal as "<mask>. <mask>'s Gift". Quaker added Puffed Wheat to their line, proclaiming the ready-to-eat cereal as "The Eighth Wonder of the World". Later, the puffed grain would be nicknamed "Food Shot From Guns".Later years
<mask> married  Lydia McDougall Johnson (1876-1934) on August 11, 1898. <mask> and <mask> moved to the Red Wing area in 1915. <mask> built a laboratory on their Tower View Farm. The <mask>s raised four children while he conducted research. They also bought more land in the area; supported charities, notably the Vasa Children's Home; and endowed student scholarships.Anderson Puffed Rice Company remained in business until 1941. Over his career, <mask> conducted more than 15,000 experiments perfecting cereals and earned 25 United States patents and foreign patents. In 1943, <mask> died at the age of eighty.One of the <mask>'s children, <mask> <mask>, was married to Eugenie (<mask>) Moore who was appointed by President Harry S Truman as Ambassador to Denmark, the first woman appointed chief of mission at the ambassador level in American history. Anderson Center at Tower View
The former Tower View Farm was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on April 13, 1977. The property is now the location of the Anderson Center, site of a 700 residency program  for artists, writers, and scholars. The A. P. <mask> award is presented annually by the Anderson Center to recognize significant contributions to the cultural and artistic life of Minnesota. References

Over that stretch, he averaged 13.0 points and 4.1 assists in 27.6 minutes per game, as he shared the point guard role with Matthew Dellavedova. However, upon the return of Kyrie Irving from injury on December 20, <mask>' role decreased and his minutes were drastically reduced, partially due to suffering from his own injury, a torn ligament in his right thumb. On January 12, he was excused by the team from their game in Dallas to tend to a personal matter. He started seeing more minutes in early February, but following the All-Star break, he appeared in just one game between February 18 and March 24 due to swelling in his left knee after being diagnosed with chondromalacia. He made his return to the line-up on March 26 against the New York Knicks, scoring eight points in 13 minutes off the bench.However, in early April, he began experiencing discomfort and increased soreness in his left knee, forcing him to miss more time. <mask> received limited playing time during the Cavaliers' playoff run, a run that saw the team reach the 2016 NBA Finals with a 12–2 record. <mask> made his first appearance in the NBA Finals during a Game 1 loss to the Golden State Warriors.

However, he never officially signed retirement papers and instead remained on the Cavaliers' roster.Not being a rotation player in 2015–16 for the first time had been the most challenging time of <mask>' career, and while the departure of Matthew Dellavedova in the 2016 off-season opened a spot at point guard, the Cavaliers drafted Kay Felder in the 2016 draft, which would have left <mask> a third-string point guard for a second straight season. <mask> did not join the playing group for the 2016–17 season and in October 2016, he underwent surgery on his left knee. In January 2017, rumors began to surface of <mask> being a possible trade piece for the Cavaliers.

He was later shipped to the Denver Nuggets alongside cash considerations on January 18, 2017 in exchange for the rights to Cenk Akyol; he was immediately waived by the Nuggets upon being acquired. Two days later, he was claimed off waivers then immediately waived by the Philadelphia 76ers. The 76ers reportedly made the claim in order to get $2.2 million closer to the salary floor while preventing the Nuggets from doing so after Denver acquired <mask> in a trade with the Hawks.He was later claimed and waived by the Nuggets on January 23 for a similar reason.
