828569338_2245-2466 | The song was first performed at Jay - Z 's `` Answer the Call '' benefit concert in Madison Square Garden on September 11 , 2009 . It was also performed in the UK on Friday Night with Jonathan Ross on February 19 , 2010 . | On to the Next One |
828569338_2566-3433 | `` More than any of its predecessors , ' On to the Next One ' best accomplishes what Jay - Z set out to do with ' The Blueprint 3 ' : stay the course of trendsetter . The veteran rapper explains why all should continue to follow his lead with lines like , ' Used to rock a throwback , ballin ' on the corner / Now I rock a tailored suit , lookin ' like an owner , ' equating aging with improvement . That point is not lost on producer Swizz Beatz , who trades in his usual arsenal for fresh sounds more native to Ibiza than Jay 's native Brooklyn . Unleashing sputtering drums over a sample from Justice 's `` D.A.N.C.E. , '' Beatz packs the song with a hypnotic electro - bounce . Its thundering bassline is nothing new - in fact , it 's been Beatz ' calling card for years - but it 's still convincing as ever , much like Jay - Z and his forward - looking work .

828569338_3455-3789 | The music video was directed by Sam Brown and was filmed in November 2009 . The video premiered on January 1 , 2010 on New Year 's Eve with Carson Daly .

828569338_3790-4885 | The video is highly surreal . It is shot in black - and - white , and at a 4 : 3 aspect ratio . The people , symbols , and characters in the video seem to be wearing black and white colors to coincide with the video . There are split second scenes while there are somewhat of an abundance of biblical references in it . Throughout the video , there are crucifixes , angelic symbols , a skull reminiscent of Damien Hirst 's famous sculpture For the Love of God and often Baphomet . During part of the music video , the music stops , and the audience sees producer Swizz Beatz with his back to them as he seemingly makes the symbol with his coat by raising his hands . JAY - Z appears wearing a leather jacket and sunglasses . There is a cameo appearance by Colin Bailey , better known as Drums of Death , who is known for his skull face paint . In the video , Bailey appears to be perplexed , confused , and / or mad . At approximately three minutes and thirty nine seconds into the video , there are two bullets on either side of a crucifix . Rapper Young Jeezy also makes a cameo in the video . | On to the Next One |

807344632_6297-6988 | In 1992 , only days after the release of Windows 3.1 , it was discovered that the character sequence `` NYC '' ( a frequently used abbreviation for New York City ) in Wingdings was rendered as a skull and crossbones symbol , Star of David , and thumbs up gesture . This was often claimed to be an antisemitic message referencing New York 's large Jewish community . Microsoft strongly denied this was intentional , and insisted that the final arrangement of the glyphs in the font was largely random . ( The character sequence `` NYC '' in the later - released Webdings font , in turn , was intentionally rendered as eye , heart , and city skyline , referring to the I Love New York logo . ) | Wingdings |
807344632_7061-7822 | After September 11 , 2001 , an email was circulated claiming that entering `` Q33 NY '' , which it claims is the flight number of the first plane to hit the Twin Towers , in Wingdings would bring up a character sequence of a plane flying into two abstract symbols which may be interpreted as skyscrapers , followed by the skull and crossbones symbol and the Star of David ( ✈ ︎ 🗏 ︎ 🗏 ︎ ☠ ︎ ✡ ︎ ) . This is a hoax ; the flight numbers of the two airplanes that hit the towers were American Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175 ; the tail numbers were N334AA and N612UA . Alternatively , `` Q33 '' has also been represented as referencing Quran chapter 33 ( `` Al - Ahzab '' ) , which is alleged to contain references to jihad . | Wingdings |

802699065_4215-4863 | On 2 August 1964 , while on a DESOTO patrol in the Tonkin Gulf , the destroyer USS Maddox ( DD - 731 ) engaged 3 North Vietnamese Navy P - 4 torpedo boats from the 135th Torpedo Squadron . After fighting a running gun and torpedo battle , in which Maddox fired over 280 5 - inch ( 130 mm ) shells , and the torpedo boats expended their 6 torpedoes ( all misses ) and hundreds of rounds of 14.5 mm machinegun fire ; the combatants broke contact . As the torpedo boats turned for their North Vietnamese coastline , four F - 8 Crusader fighter aircraft from USS Ticonderoga ( CV - 14 ) arrived , and immediately attacked the retreating torpedo boats . | James Stockdale |

802699065_5263-5792 | Two nights later , on 4 August 1964 , Stockdale was overhead during the second reported attack in the Tonkin Gulf . Unlike the first event , which was an actual sea battle , no Vietnamese forces were , however , believed to have been involved in the second engagement . In the early 1990s , he recounted : `` ( I ) had the best seat in the house to watch that event , and our destroyers were just shooting at phantom targets -- there were no PT boats there ... There was nothing there but black water and American fire power . '' | James Stockdale |
802699065_5793-6245 | The next morning , on 5 August 1964 , President Johnson ordered bombing raids on North Vietnamese military targets which he announced were retaliation for the alleged incident of 4 August . When Stockdale was awoken in the early morning and was told he was to lead these attacks he responded : `` Retaliation for what ? '' Later , while a prisoner of war , he was concerned that he would be forced to reveal this secret about the Vietnam War . Prisoner | James Stockdale |
802699065_6262-6546 | On 9 September 1965 , while flying from USS Oriskany on a mission over North Vietnam , Stockdale ejected from his Douglas A-4 Skyhawk , which had been struck by enemy fire and completely disabled . He parachuted into a small village , where he was severely beaten and taken prisoner . | James Stockdale |
802699065_6547-7590 | Stockdale was held as a prisoner of war in the Hoa Lo prison ( the infamous `` Hanoi Hilton '' ) for the next seven and a half years . As the senior Naval officer , he was one of the primary organizers of prisoner resistance . Tortured routinely and denied medical attention for the severely damaged leg he suffered during capture , Stockdale created and enforced a code of conduct for all prisoners which governed torture , secret communications , and behavior . In the summer of 1969 , he was locked in leg irons in a bath stall and routinely tortured and beaten . When told by his captors that he was to be paraded in public , Stockdale slit his scalp with a razor to purposely disfigure himself so that his captors could not use him as propaganda . When they covered his head with a hat , he beat himself with a stool until his face was swollen beyond recognition . When Stockdale was discovered with information that could implicate his friends ' `` black activities '' , he slit his wrists so they could not torture him into confession . | James Stockdale |
802699065_7591-8128 | Early in Stockdale 's captivity , his wife , Sybil Stockdale , organized The League of American Families of POWs and MIAs , with other wives of servicemen who were in similar circumstances . By 1968 , she and her organization , which called for the President and the U.S. Congress to publicly acknowledge the mistreatment of the POWs ( something that had never been done despite evidence of gross mistreatment ) , gained the attention of the American press . Sybil Stockdale personally made these demands known at the Paris Peace Talks . | James Stockdale |

Because they had been resistance leaders they were separated from other captives and placed in solitary confinement in `` Alcatraz '' , a special facility in a courtyard behind the North Vietnamese Ministry of National Defense , located about one mile away from Hoa Lo Prison . In Alcatraz , each of the prisoners was kept in an individual windowless and concrete cell measuring 3 by 9 feet ( 0.9 by 2.7 m ) with a light bulb kept on around the clock , and locked in leg irons each night . Of the eleven , Storz died in captivity there in 1970 . | James Stockdale |
802699065_9122-9318 | In a business book by James C. Collins called Good to Great , Collins writes about a conversation he had with Stockdale regarding his coping strategy during his period in the Vietnamese POW camp . | James Stockdale |
802699065_9319-9557 | I never lost faith in the end of the story , I never doubted not only that I would get out , but also that I would prevail in the end and turn the experience into the defining event of my life , which , in retrospect , I would not trade . | James Stockdale |
802699065_9558-9633 | When Collins asked who did n't make it out of Vietnam , Stockdale replied : | James Stockdale |
