Henry Walton Jones, Junior was an American archaeologist most famously known as Indiana Jones or Indy. During World War I, he used the name Henri Defense, and went by a number of aliases throughout his life. He was married at least twice, fathered a son and daughter, and had several grandchildren and great- grandchildren. Throughout his career, Jones found numerous famous mythological artifacts, including the Sankara Stones, the Ark of the Covenant, the Holy Grail, and the Crystal Skull of Akator, which placed him in conflict with different groups across the globe. Throughout his travels, Jones encountered many important figures in history who shaped his outlook on life. After the return home, his mother became ill and died. Father and son relocated to Utah in 1. Anna, their relationship became increasingly strained. While on Spring Break that year, Indiana quit high school, briefly participated in the Mexican Revolution, and spent the next three years fighting in World War I. Afterwards, he attended the University of Chicago, where he studied under Professor Abner Ravenwood, later transferring to France, where he earned an undergraduate degree in linguistics. In 1. 92. 5, he began a brief relationship with Ravenwood's daughter Marion, which ended his friendship with Abner. Once a graduate, he briefly became an archaeology teacher in London where he met student Deirdre Campbell. 182.454545454545 2008/10/24 13:01 m81i2D <a href='http://
As Veterans Day approaches, the Tennessee State Library and Archives has launched a new digital collection featuring the Korean War images of David Franklin Brock. Their romance led to marriage in 1. Deirdre's life. In 1. US Government contracted him to find the Ark of the Covenant, which led him to be reunited with Marion Ravenwood. The relationship lasted until Jones left a week before their wedding. During the war, Jones joined the OSS along with girlfriend Sophia Hapgood. The Cold War brought the Soviets into competition as a new world power and Indy found himself the focal point of their quest for Akator. After Soviet agents kidnapped him, he agreed to help his son Mutt Williams rescue his father figure and Indy's colleague Harold Oxley. Indy and Marion were reunited and their reconciliation finally led to marriage. By the early 1. 99. New York City area with his daughter and grandchildren. By 1. 90. 5, young Henry had adopted the name of his beloved dog for himself. At some point in 1. Indy and his parents visited relatives in New Mexico, and it was there that Indy rode on a pony - the first time he ever rode a horse, a talent he would eventually fully master. At one time he tried to break the landspeed record, and at another point he tried to send his dog to the moon. Henry was a big fan of professional baseball, and his favorite team was the New York Giants, while Christy Mathewson was his favorite player. He took piano lessons, but didn't think he was very good at it so he quit. As such, their first port of call was to her home in England. Still living in the city of Oxford, Miss Seymour was introduced to the boy then declined Professor Jones' offer. She believed him too young. Nor did Indiana want to see any more of her. Seymour eventually relented and the family began the two year stretch. It would be nine days of study before Indiana saw his first adventure. While Professor Jones lectured at the university, Miss Seymour took Indiana to see the Great Pyramids but hadn't paid their guide enough. He stole their camels as they scaled one of the ancient structures and left them stranded. Alone and unsure what to do next, the appearance of a figure heading in their direction on a bicycle surprised Miss Seymour as she recognized he was an old acquaintance of hers: T. Indiana was fascinated by Lawrence's account of opening a tomb and suggested he'd like to be an archaeologist. Lawrence was happy to entertain the idea, but admonished the boy when Indiana brought up the possibility of becoming rich from the profession, encouraging him instead to see archaeology as something to be shared with the world. The conversation led to Lawrence inviting Indiana and Miss Seymour to join him on a trip near the Valley of the Kings where his friend Rasheed Sallam was working on a dig site alongside Howard Carter. The stretch would earn him another lesson as Lawrence showed him the importance of learning the language of any country he visits. Neither Sallam nor Carter entertained the notion of a curse, and Indiana was shown some of the artifacts that has been discovered in the area as part of Carter's desire to find the tomb of boy king Pharaoh, Tutankhamun. Treasures that attracted the attention of onsite photographer, Pierre Duclos, and Demetrios, demolitionist and chief proponent of the curse's threat. Inside, they found the entrance to the burial chamber inscribed with a curse but pressed on and, when instructed, Sallam pried the door open to reveal a room scorched black surrounding the stone coffin of Kha. Lawrence suspected the room had already been searched when the coffin revealed no artifacts had been placed with the preserved corpse of Kha, and Duclos considered grave robbers but Carter was sure the door seals hadn't been broken and so there had to be another room. He was right, within the wall was secreted another chamber but poison gas was released so Indiana and the group had to abandon the search to seek fresh air and safety. Indiana joined the search the next day as the group re- entered the chambers and found that Kha was missing as well. Lawrence came across Sallam's charred body further on but deduced it was in fact a trauma to the head that killed the man. He was also covered in a unknown white powder. Collecting some, Lawrence couldn't see any motive so Indiana presented one person who might have an agenda: Kha. Lawrence assumed that it was a part of the statue but Indiana told him it wasn't there. Closer inspection showed part had been broken off and Lawrence was sure they'd found the murderer's motive even if he couldn't understand where Kha himself went. Seymour, and Duclos. The three ruled out the workers when Lawrence remembered the powder. By putting a flame to it, the puff of smoke that followed implied it was Duclos' flash powder. Indiana was woken the next morning by a hand clamped over his mouth. It was Lawrence, and he needed him stand guard while he searched Duclos' tent. Indiana kept an eye on the photographer walking through the site and followed him as Duclos went inside Kha's tomb. The camera flashed within the chambers and seeing Duclos may be heading back in his direction, Indiana ducked back inside an alcove. The wall behind creaked and he fell backwards into the upright body of Kha. The skeleton collapsed on top of him and, pinned to the floor, Indiana screamed fearing Duclos was coming to kill him. His tutor pushed the body off him as Lawrence held Duclos against the wall with his gun. Duclos proclaimed his innocence in the murder of Sallam and revealed he was taking pictures within the tomb for the newspaper story. Lawrence questioned the magnesium powder recovered from Sallam's corpse to which Duclos pointed out that he was not the only who used it. Indiana looked at Kha and found it clutching a detonator plunger, revealing Demetrios as having embellished the curse inscription so he could steal the Jackal. Inside the demolitionist's tent, the four found the box for the plunger and powder used in flares, evidence in proving Demetrios' guilt. He quickly set out on his bicycle to intercept Demetrios while asking Indiana not to forget him, and promised to write. But Demetrios had hidden the artifact, and managed to flee the country soon after. Indiana and his tutor reunited with Professor and Anna Jones, departing Egypt for the next leg of the tour: Morocco. Harris had arranged for the Joneses to meet with the Sharifa. Emily Keene and while the adults conversed, Indiana was allowed to play outside with Keene assigning Omar, one of her slaves, to keep Jones company. During the game Indiana found he had to tell Omar not to let him win but complimented the boy on his English and discovered the boy didn't have to study like he. Jones considered the slave be lucky and Omar, like their game had been, accepted the point without argument. Indiana was disappointed their game was being cut short and Anna was unable to tell him if he would have anyone to play with there too. Hearing this predicament, the Sharifa allowed Omar to be Jones' playmate for the rest of their stay in the country. When Jones noted Morocco shared a similarity to Egypt, Omar, having never left the country, had to ask what that was. Jones explained which led to Indiana showing the slave his hand- drawn map and pointed out the countries and their differences in weather. The conversation brought up Jones' desire to be an archaeologist one day, another concept foreign to Omar. Indiana educated him further and asked what Omar was going to be. The slave replied that he would be just that, and was unable to abandon the role. It was with that that Indiana began to fully understand the concept. Miss Seymour made it clear to him that Omar, with regards to the Sharifa, was for all intents and purposes property. It prompted Jones to decide to go and help his friend attend to the horses, and he let Omar know that as far he was concerned the boy wasn't a slave around him. While Indiana was fetching something to eat, he spied a shrouded figure making his inside the building. Mistaking the man for a thief, the boy tried to rout him before he discovered the 'intruder' was none other than Harris himself. The journalist explained the Arab disguise allowed for easier movement around the marketplace, the natives less willing to confide in a European. His plans to meet with a grand vizier had been canceled having discovered the minister's severed head was on display for displeasing the sultan. Ignoring the danger involved, he convinced Omar to join him and - Indy disguising himself like Harris had done - the pair headed for the busy marketplace. During their search, Indiana got distracted by a snake charming act and bumped into one of the spectators. The Boiling Crab - 1. Photos & 1. 89. Reviews - Seafood - 3. Wilshire Blvd, Koreatown, Los Angeles, CA - Restaurant Reviews - Phone Number - Menu. Wilshire Blvd. Ste 1. Los Angeles, CA9. Aside from great food, service is excellent. Extremely friendly staff and considering the place being so packed, they are very attentive. It's really about the sauce when you come to these cajun style places and their sha- bang sauce is hands down the best out of all the places I've been to. Recently I tried their lemon pepper wings which were also good - they are pretty seasoned just fyi. For a place I come once in awhile when I'm craving their sauce, the wait is whatevers. I forget I even waited once I'm seated and start eating. I am a huge fan of the Boiling Crab, but this location is not recommended. I gave it 1 star due to the following. Location: I guess it's not inconvenient, but it's upstairs, so some will miss it if they do not look out for it. Food: Such a disappointment. The crawfish was blah. Service: The wait staff were friendly enough, but we asked for gloves and they didn't have any. Price: The price is decent since it's not crawfish season; $9/lb of crawfish and $1. My sister & our kids went for dinner today, 4. I was very understanding about the policy. When my parents showed up the hostess allowed them to walk to the dinning area as there was 4 available tables, my parents seated themselves. After 5 minutes of being seated a server MARIA rudely approached them and stated how next time they need to wait to be seated when clearly the hostess allowed them to walk over there & there were plenty tables available/ no one waiting. She then walked away and disappeared. My parents still sat there for over 5 minutes and no one would give them service. I had to ask a server that was passing by if he can find the server assigned to that table, because my parents wanted to order. He said they didn't have a server so he took their order. As I was leaving I asked the hostess for the rude servers name he hesitated to tell me & gave me a WRONG NAME! I found out through another server her name. It was just a terrible visit, the food was great but as I left I felt so unsatisfied. I don't recommend anyone to go to this location, that Maria server is rude, the hostess is carless, & the rest of the servers look uninterested on being attentive. No matter how many knock offs open up, Boiling Crab is still the best in my book. The whole- shabang XXX still has the best flavors in terms of seasoning than any other similar places. I arrived at 5pm and didn't have to wait for a table but the restaurant was quite full. There were many parties waiting when we left around 6pm. I always go buy something at Zion Market afterwards anywhere so I usually walk over. Friends and Family have raved about this place, and I wanted to see what it was all about. My friend brought me here for a Friday night birthday dinner. The wait was about an Hour long. Thankfully they dropped by to put in their names before coming over to pick me up, so I actually waited 1. Honestly, the first thing I noticed was all the plastic that this place must go through. LOL.. I thought about how much plastic they contribute to landfills. From the bibs, to the plastic cups, straws, spoons, bags for the food, container for rice, personal hot sauces. Once we placed our orders, everything was out within 1. The oysters were delicious. With a bit of the red sauce and squeeze of lime and you're good to go. We also had the Crab, Shrimp, Corn, Potatoes, Sausage, Rice, Hot Wings, and Fries. The crab legs were large and meaty and full of flavor. The cajun sytle sauce on everything made it very tasty, but I know that I was overloaded with sodium. I have to say my favorite items were the oysters.. Places like this don't really require much interaction with the servers. Decent prices and fun experience. Expect to leave with your clothes smelling like food, so probably best that you don't go out to the clubs/bars after. I think I could have eaten just the potatoes, sausage and corn in the whole shabang sauce, but, I continued to stuffed myself with shrimp and crawfish. How many times do you get to go out and eat your food out of a plastic bag with your hands! It's sooooo good and service is awesome! But this place is always so crowded!! You can't make phone reservations. And wait is 1- 2 hr wait average. If your group isn't all there they won't reserve table until everyone arrives and they do headcount, but they will reserve spot. Order at TOGO next door and take it home to eat. Order at home cafe next door and eat it there without having to really wait but must order a drink minimum. Ended up eating that because a friend wanted to order it but I don't think I'll ever order that again. I would rather order more shrimp instead of those 2. Every time I go, I get shrimp, crab legs, oysters and fries- the whole shabang. Their seafood always has been very tasty. There will ALWAYS be a wait for boiling crab. No matter if it's to sit or to go. The service has always been pretty attentive and good. However, as of this year they have gotten pretty stingy with their sauce. I've gotten bags of shrimp on two occasions with barely any sauce and I've read this in other reviews too. So hopefully they change that soon. Parking is a disaster in the area. Underground parking that is super tight. Always good service! Servers get you ready to eat by putting a bib on you. It can get very messy. Cajun fries are amazing! I don't like too spicy, mild is perfect for me. You can choose XXX if you really want it spicy. They also have gumbo and white rice. For those who don't like seafood they have chicken strips. This place is BOMB. Always have to come here when I'm on vacation in LA. This has to be one of my favorite locations for he Boiling Crab too. The staff here is SO friendly and fun and really add to the experience. I only had to wait about half an hour to get seated in the place though. I don't even always like raw oysters, but these are so fresh and tender. They come with limes and the cutest little tobasco sauce bottles. I would order the corn to go along with the shrimp because it comes inside the bag and soaks up the delicious sauce. Especially on the weekend. Oh, the sweet potato fries are good too. I've been to several different locations and not once have I been disappointed. Try coming at 1. 1: 3. Once you miss that window, you could be waiting HOURS. Cajun fries. Sometimes I alternate to Lobster. Either way it's delicious. And they give you the WHOLE lobster. We drive about 1 1/2 every time we come. Because this K- town location is the closest. You have to eat with your hands. They have bathrooms with sinks to wash up your guns after. You won't be disappointed. I went on a Saturday afternoon, trying to beat the dinner crowd. It did not work, even though I called immediately before leaving and was told the line was only 3. I arrived less than 5 minutes later it somehow had spiked up to 4. After finding parking, which is a nightmare within a five block radius of this place every single time, we decided to wait it out. Foolishly, we hoped the line would move faster. What I noticed during the wait is that despite the rule that is posted next to the menu about a complete party needing to be there upon being called, at least 3 groups were incomplete, but given a grace period. I have little sympathy after waiting for a full hour for groups that were not there waiting for their seats. The chick also told the black group that they only had 5 minutes, but told a Latino couple they had 1. This was the first thing we received. It was the best thing we ordered- -I think it was the seasoning. Plus, market price was only $1. I wished there was twice as much. We received a pound of shrimp, MP $1. This sucked because it includes heads and the shells intact, so I spent so much time getting down to the shrimp. Also, I accidentally stabbed myself with a shrimp head, so, yeah, not great. Price with or without rice is $7. No, it was objectively not the best gumbo, but decent. My man ordered the catfish basket with cajun fries. Everything is beyond messy too. So, if you prefer eating like a caveman or things served in bags brought in metal pails that look ready for take- out, this is the place for you. I felt like a slob eating here. Even soap wouldn't wash away the stench from the shrimp . For $5. 0, I was more than displeased, especially thinking about the wait time. I would never wait again (okay maybe if it was less than 1. I probably won't be back. Okay, I love the food here, servers are nice.. General rule for restaurants is there should be 1 for every 3. ONE for women and ONE for men! Also, obviously anyone eating here must wash their hands before they leave to wipe off the delicious sauce, but you will have to wait 2. Try the lemon pepper fries . Definitely recommend. Rate: 1. 0Well.. I ordered delivery last night from this place for the very first( and last) time.. INSTEAD OF FOOD THAT IS. THROWN INTO OLD USED UP OIL.. FROM FROZEN TO FRIED.. Only one restroom available and some just wants to use the sink. A friendly server went out her way to tie it back for me. Definitely coming back.
