  • BBG, the United States Navy hull classification symbol for a Guided Missile Battleship
  • USS Kentucky (BB-66)

    USSKentucky (BB-66) was an uncompleted battleship originally intended to be the sixth and final member of the Iowa class constructed for the United States Navy. At the time of her construction she was the second ship of the United States Navy to be named in honor of the U.S. state of Kentucky. Hull BB-66 was originally to be the second ship of the Montana class. However, the U.S. Navy's experiences in World War II led it to conclude that it required more fast battleships to escort the new Essex-class aircraft carriers that were being built. As a result, Kentucky was reordered as an Iowa-class battleship midway through the war. Like her sister ship Illinois, Kentucky was still under construction at the end of hostilities and was caught up in the post-war draw-down of the armed services. Her construction was suspended twice, during which times she served as a spare parts cache of sorts. In the 1950s, there were several proposals to complete the ship as a guided missile battleship. These were abandoned primarily due to cost concerns, and Kentucky ultimately was sold for scrap in 1958.

    HUDF-JD2

    HUDF-JD2 (UDF 033238.7 -274839.8 or BBG 3179) is a distant, massive, post-starburst galaxy that was discovered with the Hubble Ultra Deep Field (HUDF) image. It was the most distant galaxy identified in the HUDF, in 2005. It is located at 03h 32m 38.7268s−27° 48 39.885 in the constellation of Fornax.

    In a 2005 search for very red galaxies in the HUDF that were not detected at wavelengths shorter than the near-infrared J band, two objects were detected. The second, initially designated UDF033238.7-274839.8, displayed a high redshift and showed characteristics of a post-starburst galaxy. The derived photometric redshift yielded z approximately equal to 6.5, which indicates it is most likely being viewed from a time when the Universe was only 830 million years old. The estimated bolometric luminosity of this galaxy is a trillion (1012) times the solar luminosity (the luminosity of the Sun) and it has a mass of approximately 6 × 1011solar masses.

    The spectrum of this object indicates that most of its energy is being emitted by stars with three solar masses or less. Hence, as larger stars will exist for shorter periods, this galaxy has an age of more than 300 million years. The period of initial active star formation in this galaxy may have lasted less than 100 million years, during which the galaxy likely participated in the reionization event.

    A Crooked Nigga Too (Raphael Saadiq Remix)

    by: 2Pac

    Yo 'Pac yo, I heard you got beat up by the police
    Got a big fat lawsuit and everything
    Niggaz just wanna know
    if you still gon' be on some crooked-ass sheeeit
    [2Pac]
    Please tell me what's a nigga to do, and it's true
    Ain't nuttin new, so I do, what I can to get through
    Now first they had me trapped and now I'm pissed
    A loaded AK-47 lay under my head so I don't trip
    One motherfucker from the Underground
    And Big Stretch buckin niggaz if they fuck around
    Yo why I got beef with police?
    Ain't that a bitch that motherfuckers got a beef with me
    They make it hard for me to sleep
    I wake up at the slightest peep, and my sheets are 3 feet deep
    I guess it's hard for you to see
    But now I'm pointin the finger at police
    instead of them motherfuckers blamin me
    I got the right to bear a pistol
    And when the punk motherfuckers get to trippin I got shit too
    And maybe then you'll see the truth (hell yeah)
    But until then, I gotta do what I do
    and stay a crooked nigga too
    [Chorus: Raphael Saadiq]
    I've got to do, what I'm gon' do
    I'm gon' say what I'm gon' say
    I'm gon' live how I live - how else you want a nigga to live?
    I'm gon' do, what I do
    I'm gon' say, what I say
    I'm gon' live how I live - how do you want a nigga to live?
    [2Pac]
    Y'know you really can't say that ya blame niggaz
    Fuck bein tame, set aflame, time to aim triggers
    2Pac'll spark a revolution, fuck the Constitution
    I want my bucks for restitution
    This time you got a bigger problem
    Time to face the niggaz from South Central, Oakland, Brooklyn and Harlem
    And we ain't shootin at each other
    That's my motherfuckin brother, so Dave Duke, run for cover
    And all the bitches from the Klan
    Come feel the wrath of a black man that doesn't smoke crack and
    I don't drink St. Ides (fuck that!)
    Genuine Draft, ganja ganja, and my fuckin tec-9
    They know they scared to see us sober
    Stop drinkin King Cobra, and niggaz'll take the world over
    It's all up to you (up to you)
    Blame the Korean, blame the jew, or be a crooked nigga too
    [Chorus]
    [2Pac]
    Aiyyo! Why me? Play like Jasmine Guy and try me
    I'll be damned if I die, come look at the rage in my eyes G
    They got my homies in a jail cell
    And it's the Rebel and the Devil, and one of us is goin to Hell
    I got the whole place covered, with loc'd out brothers
    And nuttin but love for each other
    So motherfucker make a motion
    I give a fuck, slice you up, and throw your ass in the ocean
    Temperatures drop; see it's cool to shoot a nigga
    but they hate it when we pop the cops
    That's when they gettin petrol
    You better watch your step or you'll be left on death row
    But I learn to look ahead of me
    Stay strapped watch your back keep your eyes on the enemy
    We blowin up precincts and OOOH
    You can't fuck with the crew, of crooked nigga too
    [Chorus]
    [Raphael Saadiq]
    It's the coldest town from here to Georgia
    (I'm a crooked nigga too)
    It's the coldest town from here to Georgia
    It's the coldest town from here to Georgia
    (I'm a crooked.. crooked nigga too)
    It's the coldest town from here to Georgia
    Y'all gon' stop fuckin with me
    [Chorus - repeat to fade]
