 Shake Yer Popboomerang
Jericho existed completely and totally underneath the radar of American music fans, but, in their native Australia, their constant touring helped build them a reputation as one of the strongest power pop bands down under in the mid-'90s.
Jericho, who took their cues from DM3, the Little Murders and the Hoodoo Gurus, were among the victims of a rush to join a flannel shirt army.
Jericho are framed, in the current sense, by being a past vehicle for Danny McDonald, a nice guy and probably the premier up-and-comer in Australian powerpop.

 Jericho Echo
There are a variety of reports and publications on Jericho but no sketchbook containing drawings of houses, street scapes, pubs, schools, churches, shops and businesses with accompanying text that seeks to explain the early setting and later nineteenth and twentieth century growth of Jericho.
Jericho has survived as an inner-city suburb with a distinct personality despite the many changes and challenges it has faced in the 170 years of its existence, such as the Oxford Movement of the nineteenth century and Inspector Morse of the late twentieth century.
Jericho has none of the architectural grandeur, and venerable age of collegiate Oxford.

 US urges restraint over Jericho jail raid - Boston.com
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas on Wednesday condemned Israel's raid on a Jericho jail to seize a militant leader as a crime that would not be forgiven and accused British and U.S. monitors supervising the prison of complicity with Israel.
Israeli forces used tanks and bulldozers to tear apart the Jericho jail on Tuesday to grab Saadat, accused by Israel of overseeing the 2001 assassination of Israeli cabinet minister Rehavam Zeevi, for which responsibility was claimed by the PFLP.
Saadat, 51, was sent to Jericho jail in 2002 under an internationally-brokered deal that ended an Israeli siege that year of late Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat's compound in Ramallah, where the PFLP leader had taken refuge.

Humanly speaking, it was impossible for the Israelites to penetrate the impregnable bastion of Jericho.
The jars found in the ruins of Jericho were full, showing that the siege was short since the people inside the walls consumed very little of the grain.
Jericho was once thought to be a ‘Bible problem’ because of the seeming disagreement between archaeology and the Bible.

The area around Jericho was first explored by Europeans when Major Thomas Mitchell passed through the area in 1846.
The crystals (the connection of the Biblical story with the town is, to put it mildly, rather tenuous) symbolise various moments in the Old Testament including the slavery in Egypt, the parting of the Red Sea, the receiving of the Ten Commandments, the crossing of the River Jordan and the arrival in the Promised Land.
The key is held in Blackall (see Blackall for details) but people approaching from Jericho, who do not wish to travel to Blackall, should contact the Warden on (07) 4657 4663 or (07) 4651 0335.

 Daily Bible Study - The Fall Of Jericho
The original Jericho was located about 5 miles / 8 kilometers west of The Jordan River, and 7 miles / 11 kilometers north of The Dead Sea.
Jericho was destroyed primarily because, while under Canaanite occupation, it would have (as it does again today) hindered their control of all of the Promised Land that God had deeded to the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob long before - Dan to Beersheba, the Jordan to the Mediterranean, every last square inch.
After its destruction, Jericho was put under a curse by Joshua: "Cursed before The Lord be the man that rises up and rebuilds this city, Jericho.

 CD Baby: JERICHO: Retrospecitive 1999-1998
Formed in the regional Victorian area of LaTrobe Valley sometime in the early 90's, Jericho was the first recording outfit for one of Australia's finest & most respected Power Pop solo singer / songwriters, Danny McDonald (P76 / The Stoneage Hearts / Oscarlima).
Although they existed at a time when America's "Grunge" explosion had consumed the large majority of Australia's original music scene, Jericho sported a unique take on the country's rich heritage of classic guitar based Power Pop, recalling the likes of The Sunnyboys, The Hoodoo Gurus, The Stems, and Paul Kelly.
Featuring 21 remastered tracks (the best of the bands' released recordings coupled with 8 previously unreleased tracks) Jericho's Retrospective album sets the record straight for a band who sadly never achieved the larger recognition they deserved and consequently imploded in their prime.

 Lesnar, Jericho, Kane
Jericho’s problems with the Rock during the WCW/ECW Invasion finally caused him to snap and go back to his heel routes.
To this day Jericho is still playing that heel character and despite being a big name (even receiving huge pops from Australia), Jericho just isn’t what he used to be.
From there Jericho can work against the heel champion, whether that be Lesnar or Angle (I’m hoping to see one or both of them with the belt before this year is out).

On the main road north to the restive town of Nablus, cement blocks are due to be moved at a later date before armed Palestinian police will eventually patrol.
But many Palestinians dismiss the deal as little more than symbolic, given that Israeli soldiers were already absent from within Jericho itself, unlike elsewhere in the West Bank.
Handing over security in Ramallah, Bethlehem, Qalqilya, Tulkarem and Jericho was a key confidence-building measure agreed at a landmark Israeli-Palestinian peace summit in Egypt early last month.

When Australia’s Prime Minister John Howard defied the augurers by winning a third term in November 2001, he did so partly because the 9/11 political fallout would have favored any incumbent.
With only the vaguest awareness of what she was doing, by simply challenging them, she brought down the walls of Australia’s multicultural Jericho.
