279.    Hathorn and his

co-conspirators had made at least four drug smuggling flights in

1980 and 1981.   The smuggling flight that was the basis of the

Florida indictment was one of these flights, and at the

Pennsylvania hearing, an agent of the Drug Enforcement Agency

linked the marijuana sold to Felton to another of these flights.

We noted that these flights were very similar, all originating in

Atlanta, picking up marijuana in Columbia, and returning to

similar locations.   Id. at 280.    Had we not looked beyond the

acts alleged in the Pennsylvania indictment, we would not have

uncovered the operational and locational similarity of the

conspiracies in which Hathorn participated.    Thus, we must look

to the entire record before the district court in examining the

totality of thecommitted."

Black's Law Dictionary 941 (6th ed. 1990).   Smith argues that the

primary locations for both conspiracies was in Rhode Island,

where GTECH's headquarters and his office were located, and where

the funds were allegedly diverted, and Kentucky, where he

allegedly received the kickbacks.    The government stresses that

all the acts alleged in the Kentucky indictment occurred in

Kentucky, and all those alleged in the New Jersey indictment

occurred in New Jersey.   We agree with Smith that events

underlying the New Jersey and Kentucky indictments commence and

end at the same spots and that the geography of his alleged

criminal activity is consistent with the existence of what he

describes as an over-arching conspiracy.   Although the

indictments focus on acts in different states, they both

implicate important acts in furtherance of the alleged

conspiracies
