Club (weapon)
A club (also known as a cudgel, baton, bludgeon, truncheon, cosh, nightstick, or impact weapon) is a short staff or stick, usually made of wood, wielded as a weapon since prehistoric times. There are several examples of blunt-force trauma caused by clubs in the past, including at the site of Nataruk in Turkana, Kenya, described as the scene of a prehistoric conflict between bands of hunter-gatherers 10,000 years ago. Most clubs are small enough to be swung with one hand, although larger clubs may require the use of two to be effective. Various specialized clubs are used in martial arts and other fields, including the law-enforcement baton. The military mace is a more sophisticated descendant of the club, typically made of metal and featuring a spiked, knobbed, or flanged head attached to a shaft. Examples of cultural depictions of clubs may be found in mythology, where they are associated with strong figures such as Hercules or the Japanese oni, or in popular culture, where t ...

Baton Records
Baton Records was an American, New York City based independent record label, launched in 1954 by record producer Sol Rabinowitz, mainly to record and release rhythm and blues music. Baton's first record, and subsequent hit, was "A Thousand Stars" by the R&B group the Rivileers. The label's most enduring hit is arguably "Got My Mojo Working" written by Preston Foster and first recorded by singer Ann Cole in 1957. Muddy Waters claimed to have written the song and put out a recording of it on Chess Records ,the same week as Cole's record was released on Baton. Waters had heard Cole sing the song while they were on tour together and adopted it as his own. A court later ruled that the song was indeed written by Foster, who s of 1998is still receiving royalties for "Mojo". Rabinowitz wound up the Baton label in 1959.John Broven with Richard Tapp, ''Sol Rabinowitz's Baton Records'', ''Juke Blues ''Juke Blues'' is a British magazine covering blues, R&B, gospel, soul, zydeco and ...

BATON Overlay
The BAlanced Tree Overlay Network (BATON) is a distributed tree structure for peer-to-peer (P2P) systems. Different from other overlays that use a distributed hash table (DHT), such as in the Chord system, BATON organizes peers in a distributed tree to support range search. In addition, BATON tries to keep the tree height-balanced, similar to the AVL tree. And hence, the search exact and range queries cost is bounded to O(\log N), such as the cost for an update operation (join/ leave). System model BATON is a binary tree. In each tree level, the node is named by its position in the tree. Each node in BATON keeps four kinds of links: # a link to its parent node (unless it is root) # links up to two-children nodes # a link to left and right adjacent node # links to select neighbor nodes maintained in a left routing table (LRT) and right routing table (RRT). Combining these, the routing table is created RT := \cup The level of any node is one greater than the level of its parent. ...

Baton Bunny
''Baton Bunny'' is a 1959 Warner Bros. ''Looney Tunes'' cartoon, directed by Chuck Jones and Abe Levitow. The short was released on January 10, 1959, and stars Bugs Bunny. It shows Bugs conducting an orchestra - with a fly bothering him. Bugs conducts, and in part, plays the overture to "Ein Morgen, ein Mittag und Abend in Wien" (A Morning, Noon, and Night in Vienna)", a composition by Franz von Suppé. Though Mel Blanc was credited for vocal characterizations, there is no dialogue in the short; the only vocal effect made was when an audience member is heard coughing. This is the third and last Bugs Bunny cartoon (the first two being ''A Corny Concerto'' and ''Rhapsody Rabbit'', although he says three lines in the latter) where Bugs is silent. Or, nearly silent; at one point, he 'shushes' the brass. This is also one of the last cartoons to get a Merrie Melodies Blue Ribbon reissue in 1968. Plot Bugs is about to conduct "The Warner Bros. Symphony Orchestra" (supposedly in concert ...

Baton Broadcasting System
:''This is about the defunct television system owned by Baton Broadcasting. For the history of Baton Broadcasting itself, see Bell Media.'' The Baton Broadcast System ( ), also known as BBS, was a Canadian system of television stations located in Ontario and Saskatchewan, owned by Baton Broadcasting. BBS was the successor to two provincial systems also owned by Baton, the Saskatchewan Television Network (STN) and Ontario Network Television (ONT). During the 1990s, BBS and its predecessors served as a complementary programming service to the CTV Television Network, to which most (but not all) of the system's stations were already affiliated. Shortly after Baton's acquisition of CTV in 1997 and the contemporaneous sale of Baton's independent stations (later re-acquired by Bell and currently part of the parallel CTV 2 system), the BBS brand was eliminated, and the system's operations were merged into the CTV network. History Background During its years as a cooperative, CTV did not b ...
