[11] In April of the year, he traveled to Tokyo, Japan to organize GAEA Japan's 8th Anniversary show at Yokohama Bunka Gym with promoter Chigusa Nagayo. He would later co-promote Carmen Electra's female wrestling promotion Naked Women's Wrestling League, serving as the promotion's head trainer and consultant in October 2003. As recently as 2005, he began training former reality TV star Mandy Weaver for a career in the promotion.

While in Ludhiana, Punjab, Hutchinson was involved in an incident in which Russian wrestler Jason the Legend of Pro Wrestling ZERO-ONE attempted to assault several Indian reporters during a press conference when the wrestlers were apparently told their tour was to be postponed. Throwing a table across the room, Jason had attempted to assault the reporters before being restrained by several wrestlers present. Although there were no reports of anyone injured, the Senior Superintendent of Police had reported that the wrestler's passports had been siezed pending a police investigation. The incident would also be shown on Indian television such as Day Break as well as being covered by the Daily India and The Times of India. [13] [edit] Championships and accomplishments

[2] He later took part in a handicap match with Arthur Washington against One Man Gang on August 29 [3] and in a 6-man tag team with against One Man Gang, Butch Reed and Nikolai Volkoff with Safi Avi and Jerry Allen on October 10, Milliman returned to the AWA.

DeBeers, known as the "Great American Turkey Hunt". The match was part of the AWA Team Challenge Series, where the wrestler who got a stuffed, uncooked turkey off of the top of a pole first would win. In what was considered at the time a major upset, [7] Milliman took the turkey from DeBeers when the referee's back was turned and was declared the winner. [8] The match took place in a TV studio without an audience (the announcers claimed it was in an effort to stop wrestlers from interfering, but it was actually due to poor ticket sales). [9] Milliman also participated in the final match in the TSC. That match was a royal rumble-style battle royal featuring Brad Rheingans, Col. DeBeers, The Trooper, The Destruction Crew (Mike Enos & Wayne Bloom), the Texas Hangmen and others. Milliman again came away with the win by eliminating DeBeers at the end, winning the Series and supposed $1,000,000 check for his team Larry's Legends.

Taxobox
]]}} Furbish's Lousewort (Pedicularis furbishiae) is a perennial herb found only on the shores of the upper St. John River in Maine and New Brunswick. Furbish's lousewort was first recognized as a new species by Maine naturalist and botanical artist Kate Furbish in 1880 [1]. It is considered an endangered species in the United States and Canada, and is threatened by habitat destruction, as well as Riverside development, forestry, littering and recreational use of the riverbank. [edit] DescriptionFurbish's Lousewort is not distinguished by large and showy flowers. It "averages 75 cm in height. During its first few years of growth, it forms a basal rosette of deeply incised fern like leaves. Usually after three years the Lousewort begins to flower, often from a single, slightly hairy and reddish tinged stem with a few branches near the top. Furbish's Lousewort flowers are small, yellow and snap-dragon like. They are clustered in a short cylindrical head, and open sequentially from the lower to the upper-most between July and August." [2] [edit] HabitatIt grows on the bank of the St. John River in three areas of New Brunswick and at 18 sites in Maine. [3] It needs moist, unstable, semi-shaded, eroding banks subject to flooding, and ice-scouring.
