Paranormal Park fits right alongside them, and will no doubt become a source of joy for so many young viewers on the long road to finding themselves. If the company only stopped producing comedy specials for Ricky Gervais and Dave Chappelle we might actually be onto something. But enough about that - back to cartoons!




Dead End Or Brand New Something.




When New Orleans was first settled in 1718, life here was rough. There was disease and difficulty, storms and starvation, and one thing was dead certain: people were going to die. Likely very many of them. And those they left behind needed a place to dispose of the bodies.


The first cemetery in the city was built in approximately 1725, dead-center in the middle of the French Quarter, along St. Peter Street, and dead bodies were buried there underground. There were several reasons why anyone who thought this was a good plan was dead wrong.


The surplus of yellow-fever-stricken dead bodies was too much for the overcrowded St. Peter Cemetery to handle. Sanitation became an issue among the decaying of the stricken, and many locals were scared to death that the dead were still contagious to the living and that the air around these corpses was infected. Yet no one agreed on an appropriate method of disposal. Finding a place to stash these remains was becoming something of a bone of contention.


At first, people continued to bury the dead underground even in the new cemetery, but by 1804, they began to realize that above-ground tombs were a solution for the groundwater problem, keeping corpses relatively bone-dry by comparison. These tombs also followed the burial customs prevalent in Southern France and Spain, where many early New Orleanians hailed from.


Fancily decorated above-ground tombs soon became a symbol of wealth and a way for well-to-do New Orleans residents to show off their social standing. So while the rich were dying to get into cemeteries such as St. Louis Cemetery No. 1, they wouldn't be caught dead in some of the mass graves and "potter's fields" where the bodies of the less fortunate where dumped.


Burial in these community crypts could be risky business. In some instances, a family would have to pay rent for a space in a tomb to store a dead relation. If they defaulted on the rent, they risked having their half-decayed loved ones abruptly removed from their resting places. For impoverished families who had no other options, being stuck with a homeless carcass was a fate worse than death.


The band has not released any studio recordings, but all of the concerts from their 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2021 and 2022 tours have been (or are being) released on CD, iTunes, streaming services, and through their Livedead.co website.


While the main show may be over, however, the future of the Walking Dead franchise is thriving. As much as The Walking Dead's series finale represents the end of an era, "Rest In Peace" also triggers the beginning of a brand-new phase, as AMC siphons off some of its biggest characters into fresh projects. Although the overall amount of TV hours will be lower in 2023, the amount of TV shows releasing under The Walking Dead's umbrella will actually increase. This is how The Walking Dead's future looks after season 11.


How to avoid: Better market research, including talking directly to customers, can help you become attuned to customer desires and needs before making product investments. If an existing product is selling slowly and risks becoming dead stock, try offering it at a discount.


Partnerships: If you have a positive existing relationship with another company, think about ways you might be able to shift dead stock by partnering to offer a co-branded product bundle, or sending that stock as a free gift with purchase from the company you partnered with.


Bottom line, avoiding dead stock can be challenging for businesses of any size. Companies can be left with dead stock for many reasons, from inconsistent ordering practices to economic downturns and quality issues. However, businesses can take steps to minimize the risk of dead stock by using inventory management software, monitoring customer demand and applying rigorous product-quality standards.


A: Dead stock is inventory that a company has held for a long time and is unlikely to sell. To get rid of dead stock, companies may employ strategies such as offering discounts or bundling dead stock with better-selling products.


A: Deadstock fabric is past-season fabric that went unsold, usually because it was surplus, unwanted by the designer, slightly damaged or of subpar quality. Some fashion companies may source deadstock fabric to save money or prevent fabrics from being thrown away.


Megatron became more and more unstable over time, especially after Optimus Prime died, but not by his own hands. While the Decepticons traveled convoy to a space bridge nexus in the Florida Keys, Megatron rode in gun mode inside of Dead End. He stopped long enough to totally demolish a passing truck that resembled Optimus Prime. Dead End pointed out Megatron's mistake, but his great leader seemed satisfied by the thought that if the truck HAD been Prime, then Prime would certainly be dead now. Even though he already was. Even Dead End's obsession with death wasn't enough to understand Megatron in this state. Once they reached the rendezvous point, Dead End rather eagerly left with Vortex while Megatron waited behind for an ambush by Optimus Prime that he was sure was coming. Megatron ended up blowing himself up shortly thereafter, and certainly Dead End and the other Decepticons were none too broken up by that turn of events. Gone but Not Forgotten!


Dead End viewed the Autobot-Decepticon war from a pessimistic perspective. He believed no matter how long the war lasted, all Transformers were doomed to die. In comparison to the other Decepticons, Dead End spent more time preserving and maintaining his comrades' image and performance. On the other hand, once Dead End is engaged in combat, he becomes a fierce and deadly adversary. Dead End would satiate his anarchic and somber soul by stopping at nothing to destroy the Autobots.


When Offroad, Bludgeon, and Lockdown arrive at the Moonbase, Dead End demands that they explain their presence. They reply that they're under orders from Straxus and that they need to see what he is protecting. He leads them to a chamber holding the only known sample of the deadly Cosmic Rust. 2ff7e9595c
