"Don't Get Caught!" with Peter North is a prime time reality game show hosted by and starring Peter North due to premere on Fox on Feburary 12, 2008. Written by Travis Everett and Kendall Harris, the reality show places contestents on a large maze, similar to the one popularized by shows such as American Gladiators and Ninja Warrior, and requires them to fight through various obsticles in order to clear the maze and win a monitary prize.

Primetime Slot

After the announcement of the revival of American Gladitors by the NBC network, Fox sought a similar show with a comparable amount of name recognision. Thus, Peter North (a popular North American pornographic actor) was persued along with Ron Jeremy as hosts for their creation. Banking on the potential torrent of controversy the two hosts would create, Fox reportedly paid each 1.4 million USD for their services, but later dropped Jeremy due to accounting and performance issues. Fox announced on November 4th the show was due to premere during the prime time slot directly parallel to NBC's "American Gladiators" (8:00 pm EST).

Shows Premise

After contending for one of the eight available slots on the show (4 male and 4 female in accordance to a request by North, who happens to be bisexual) through means of which Fox would not reveal to the public, contestants are initially pitted in a head-to-head trivia challenge with one another in which they are quizzed over current events, phyical sciences, and (in line with the shows host) pornographic trivia. Each correct response warrents that particular contestant :10 seconds within the maze finale of the show. Each incorrect response warrents a phyical challenge, which if not completed, dictates that particular contestants departure from the show. After a commercial break, the contestants are then ushered to the maze with the objective of reaching the end of the maze. Peter North, who dawns a particular costume at the beginning of the maze challenge, awaits the contestants in the maze a la the Gladiators in the Eliminator of "American Gladitors", ready to pounce on unsuspecting contestants. The first contestant who reaches the end of the maze wins an unspecified amount of money as well as a ride on Peter's personal motorcycle.

Controvery

Needless to say, the show (when announced) was met with huge amounts of controversy. The most vocal speakers against the show were Diana Russell, Andrea Dworkin, and Catharine MacKinnon along with the entire Catechism of the Catholic Church. A Fox executive Dan Leibovitz side-stepped the heat by stating "We've gotten a little bit more of an edge. We're a lot more aggressive [with regard to programming] whereas before, we were sitting back and letting people run their stuff."

Sean Fitzgerald is a competitive eater from Houston, Texas and is currently the newest rising member of the IFOCE - International Federation of Competitive Eating. He is the highest ranked Competitive Eater in the World that is of Icelandish heritage, a fact he is very proud of.

Fitzgerald's family has a long history of whale hunting which he credits to providing him with his massive appetite for meat making him a contender for being the future king of the IFOCE. His grandfather and father have threatened to disown him as he has not taken up the family business.

Currently he holds the record for the "Big Burger" which is 15 "Big" 32 oz. filets having eaten them in a time of 10 minutes, 14 seconds. He hopes to soon challenge for the other burger belts and be the undisputed champion of grilled meat.

Remi is a card game. Croatian card game created during the assassination of Franz Ferdinand, at a meeting of the Swedish and Turkish horse breeders, on the off-season. This game gets more and more logical as your blood-alcohol content increases. This is due to its overly simplistic nature that is dependent upon the specific viscosity of the oil in your hands. The more, the better. Also, since this is an eastern European game, even devout Communists can play it. This is a cross faction game that ignored race, religion, sexual orientation, sex, but discriminates against the quadripalegic. Hands are definitely an asset here.

Events

[edit]
  • Antonio Vieira, a Portugese Jesuit, publishes a document denouncing the actions of the WIC which employed privateers to attack Spanish and Portugese shipping in the West Indies. Between 1623 and 1637, 609 ships were captured by privateering activities on the WIC. [1]
  • A group of fifty French Calvinists led by engineer LeVasseur leave St. Kitts and eventually arrive in Tortuga. Driving out the local Spanish inhabitants, the colonists begin the construction of a fort on the southeast end of the island overlooking the harbor. [2] Cutting steps into the rock cliff and used an iron ladder to reach the top of the cliff when the angle of the steps became to steep to climb. Building a near impregnible fortress called the Dove-cote, the fort was built to be inaccessable save for the steps cut into the rock cliff and an iron ladder to reach the top of the cliff when the angle of the steps became to steep to climb. The Calvinists successfully defended the island as the Spanish returned later that year sinking several ships before retreating. [3]
  • Spanish colonial authorities in Hispanola launch a campaign to drive out the pirates gathered in Tortuga, of whom were predominantly English and French, in an attempt to put a stop to the constant attacks on Spanish shipping in the West Indies. Although initially successful, the island would become a major haven for pirates later known as buccaneers thoughout the late-1650s when Col. Edward Doyley invited the inhabitants to operate from Jamaica. [4]
  • May - A second attempt by the Spanish to capture the English colony at Providence Island, a joint Spanish/Portugese fleet consisting of 700 men and thirteen ships including the Black Robin (the former HMS Robert, the captured flagship of the Earl of Warwick), is led by Sergeant Major Don Antonio Maldonado de Texeda. Although founded by Puritans who had left the Massachusetts Bay Colony, the island was regarded as a "den of thievery" by Captain General of Cartegena Don Melchor de Aguilera and was used as a stopping point by privateers due to its natural harbors and close proximity to Cartagena and Portobello. English privateer William Jackson had visited the island earlier that year before returning to England by the end of winter. [5]

Arts and literature

[edit]
  • Francis Knight's A Relation of Seven Yeares Slaverie Under the Turkes of Argeire, suffered by an English Captive Merchant is published.

Births

[edit]
  • Sir John Narbrough, English navigator and admiral who took part in a privateering expedition against the Spanish in the South Seas between 1669 and 1671. [6]

A tribute album for the rock n roll band Guns n Roses. Guns N Roses cover songs by: Most Precious Blood "Sweet Child Of Mine" Dillinger Escape Plan "My Michelle" Time in Malta "November Rain" Haste "You're Crazy" God Forbid "Out Ta Get Me" Vaux "14 Years" Every Time I Die "I Used To Love Her" Unearth "It's So Easy" Death By Stereo "Anything Goes" The Beautiful Mistake "Estranged" Break The Silence "Night Train" Zombie Apocalypse "Welcome To the Jungle" Eighteen Visions "Paradise City" Bleeding Through "Rocket Queen" It has received mostly positive reviews Pastepunk.com-I definitely think this is one of the best tributes I've ever come across, and it clearly beats the snot out of that overhyped WEEZER compilation that came out last year. Congrats to Law of Inertia for attempting, and mostly suceeding in roping in the 'big one' of tribute discs.
