Employee injury closes Dueling Dragons at Universal Orlando
Written by Robert Niles
A worker was injured at the Dueling Dragons roller coasters at Universal's Islands of Adventure before the park opened this morning. One report said the worker was struck by one of the cars, presumably on a morning test run.Tweet
The area around Dueling Dragons is a swarm of activity these days, as construction proceeds on the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. The Dragons coasters are rumored to close this fall to be rethemed as part of the new Harry Potter land.
If any Universal insiders have additional details, please post them in the comments.
Update: The Sentinel updates with quotes from Universal spokesperson Tom Schroder: "It's too soon to share more information," Schroder told the paper. "We're doing everything we can to support our team member and his family."
"Our ride is safe," Schroder said in the story. "What happened this morning had nothing to do with the safety of the ride experience."
Readers' Opinions
From Robert Niles on July 1, 2009 at 1:00 PM
Reading between the lines, Schroder's quotes jibe with the earlier report that the employee was struck by a car. No malfunction of the ride, just a person in a place where s/he should not have been.
If that's true, the lack of information about the employee's condition is doubly troubling.
From Frank Lukasik on July 1, 2009 at 1:56 PM
As a former Lead Technician at Dueling Dragons, I knew this man who was hit by the 20,000 pound roller coaster while doing a "routine" inspection of the foundations. These are the concrete anchors that hold the structure into the earth. The 911 call said he was "unresponsive" at the time. If he was hit full-frontal by the train, he was launched many feet and probably died. No crumple zones on coasters! The 911 operator mentions that he was hit in the head, so hopefully he was nicked by a fiberglass or rubber tooth or claw that protrude from the bottom of the coaster. The reason there is so much media "hype" at the major theme parks, is that they are not required by law to release ANY info about injuries or deaths that occur on property, so the media feel lucky to get whatever they can. Their squeaky clean safety records are a sham. The maintenance techs, who work at night, are not even subjected to a pre-employment drug screening before hiring. Several employees have recently been fired for using drugs ON the job!
I am writing this as a former employee of 13 years who was terminated for using a licensed firearm to defend myself from an attacker while on vacation, 12 miles from Universal. They cited the reason as "conduct which may or may not bring negative publicity to Universal Orlando", and that my "actions could affect the safety of guests or fellow employees". I've tried for three years to get them to tell me what "conduct" or "actions" jeopardized fellow employees' safety, or that of the guests, but nobody will tell me! I was acquitted for self-defense, but Universal never gave me a chance to wait for the outcome! They even went so far as to attempt to deny me workers' compensation due to "WORKPLACE MISCONDUCT"! I won that on appeal from Unemployment. Universal didn't even dare show up for the arbitration! So, naturally I have a bit of an axe to grind with them, so I will release any information I find on safety issues that they try to cover up. I would not report rumors, just facts, as I feel the public have a right to know. I still use the email address firstname.lastname@example.com since I've had it for so long! The technician's name is Douglas Babcock, so please keep him in your prayers if you will.
From 18.104.22.168 on July 2, 2009 at 5:10 AM
You are clearly a bitter employee with an ax to grind with Universal. Using this employee's injury to trash talk the company that fired you is in poor taste. Go rant somewhere else.
From Kelly Smith on July 2, 2009 at 10:22 AM
Also, Frank... the news article I read said you met up with a man in order to fight with him, then shot at him during the fight. I'm not saying it wasn't self-defense, but it doesn't strike me as responsible conduct, either.
From brian lochridge on July 2, 2009 at 3:06 PM
It's called being a coward. Really, you brought a gun to a fight? Sorry but thats not self defense.
From 188.8.131.52 on July 3, 2009 at 1:28 AM
I love how you believe the story about Frank that you read on the internet (since everything on the internet is true). This guy was recently terminated from Universal yet he still vouches for the safety of their rides and asks to keep the technician in your prayers. If you have something to comment regarding that then please share but this is not a Frank bashing post. Neither Walt Disney World or Universal does any kind of drug screening simply for the fact that their combined employee turnover rate is probably one of the highest in the world, so I don't doubt his statement about the overnight guys. Since everyone else is being a Debbie Downer let me just say that I appreciate the info Frank. I heard this from a Universal manager that has been with the company for seven years and still had a limited story. Universal is trying to keep the details of this incident as hush-hush as possible.
From 220.127.116.11 on July 3, 2009 at 8:38 AM
Not that anonymous then Frank
From Terry Smith on July 3, 2009 at 9:28 AM
CDF is a nice restaurant, but it isn't even the best restaurant in the World Showcase. That honor belongs to Le Cellier. Still, CDF must have some fans, and I guess they all joined the voting this year.
From Brandon Mendoza on July 3, 2009 at 12:37 PM
The only thing I really have to add without getting into this too much is that Drug Screening is expensive, but I think it should be necessary for certain positions where Guest safety could be compromised. Maintenance, ride operators, etc. Not so much food service, retail, or even costumed characters. If anything, they'll hurt themselves more than Guests. Costumed characters are actually more of a toss up for me.
Sad to hear that anyone gets hurt anywhere, but especially in a theme park.
From Larry Zimmerman on July 3, 2009 at 12:57 PM
Lock-outs, loud buzzers, PA announcements, and someone still was in the danger zone when the coaster was started? 0-o! Sounds like major safety procedures were being ignored. If they ignore the majors, how many minors are going ignored as well...?

"We love our programs....design is even so much more beautiful in actuality than it looks online. We very much like all our stationary...however this design/stationary is by far our favorite and will make a great keepsake. You would be pleased with your purchase."
"I ordered this program along with the Rustic Wreaths menu, place card and thank you note, all in the color Almond. Since I ordered the other ones as plain signature matte, I thought I'd try this one with the Pearl White Shimmer. It's absolutely gorgeous! It adds something special to this design, just lovely. I'm going to order this suite for my wedding day, and in all pearl shimmer. The paper quality is nice and thick and the design is perfect for our day.. rustic and to me feels a little bit French. Very happy with this product :)"
"I was very pleased with the level of customer service on creating these programs for our wedding. Unable to make headers myself, I asked WPD to make headlines and they did and it turned out beautifully. We also love the quality of the paper. We are so excited that this will be the first piece everyone sees on our wedding day."
"I love this beautiful vintage look and to have the ability to include pictures inside! One thing that would have been helpful is to have preset questions inside the program for those of us who are unsure how a program really is supposed to look!"
"Beautiful card. Used it for our milestones celebration and it was exquisite . A wonderful memento to capture the occasion. Perfect color, images and layout. Count on it to add sophistication, elegance and charm to any affair."

Most Americans still oppose Obamacare
Just months before kicking in, the health care overhaul isn't winning over people who see it as too liberal.
The Affordable Care Act will become reality in a little more than seven months, but it's not making much headway in winning over more Americans.
Fifty-four percent of Americans oppose Obamacare, according to a CNN/ORC International poll. Those numbers are little changed from 2010, when President Barack Obama signed the legislation into law.
Not surprisingly, most people in opposition say they're against the law because it's too liberal, although 16% oppose Obamacare because it doesn't go far enough.
How an American feels about the ACA is based largely on his or her political preference, with only 16% of Republicans approving of the act and 75% of Democrats supporting it.
"A majority of younger Americans favor the new health care law; support among other age groups falls as low as 31% among senior citizens. Only a third of whites support the law, compared to six in 10 nonwhites. Obamacare also wins majority support in urban areas and in the Northeast, the bluest region of the country," CNN polling director Keating Holland told the news outlet.
The poll raises questions about whether the Obama administration will be able to sway more Americans as the deadline ticks down and enrollment starts in October.
The government is working on an outreach and education plan, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid told MSN Money last month. As part of that effort, it hired public-relations firm Weber Shandwick to create a "strategic and tactical plan," the group said in an email.
Yet so far, that outreach appears to be falling short. Forty-two percent of Americans don't know the Affordable Care Act is still in effect, with about 12% believing Congress got rid of it, according to a Kaiser Family Foundation poll earlier this month.
Many businesses are struggling with the law as the deadline approaches, with Regal Entertainment Group (RGC) stirring controversy by cutting hours for workers rather than providing health insurance under Obamacare. Dunkin' Brands (DNKN) lobbied to change the definition of a full-time worker, which under the law is only 30 hours a week.
Though most Americans oppose the law, 43% support it.

PISCATAWAY, N.J. (March 21, 2013) – After winning three-of-four in Virginia, Rutgers baseball will end its spring break trip by opening BIG EAST play at No. 4 Louisville with a three-game series at Patterson Stadium beginning Friday. The Scarlet Knights went 16-11 in conference games last season to finish in a tie for fifth in the standings.
Rutgers (6-10) is the midst of 23 straight true road games to start the season, the most of any Division I team in the nation. According to Boyd Nation research, RU has had the fourth toughest schedule in the nation so far in 2013.
Game 17: Friday, March 22
First Pitch: 5 p.m.

Game 18: Saturday, March 23

Game 19: Sunday, March 24

Rutgers Starter: RHP Charlie Law (0-2, 8.34)
Louisville Starter: RHP Jared Ruxer (0-0, 3.86)
Live Stream ($): CardsTV
Radio: WNDA 1570 AM
Live Stats: GameTracker
The last seven games RU has played have come down to the wire, with all being decided in the last at bat (4-3). Most recently, the Scarlet Knights split a pair of extra-inning midweek games against VCU. Senior Charlie Law (Mainland, N.J.) led the way in the Wednesday win, hitting a two-out RBI double in the 12th inning in a 4-for-6 performance. He now leads the team in batting (.409), slugging (.523) and on-base (.458).
On the mound, RU will stay with its usual starting rotation. Seniors Rob Smorol (Clark, N.J.) (254.0) and Tyler Gebler (Toms River, N.J.) (253.1) rank fifth and sixth in school history in innings pitched and have past experience pitching at Louisville. Law, who has totaled 18 strikeouts in his past two outings, will work the finale once again.
Louisville (18-2) is ranked in each of the four national polls, with a high-mark of No. 4 according to Baseball America. The Cardinals have won their last seven and are in the midst of 20 straight games at home. The pitching staff has been the strength of the team, leading the BIG EAST in ERA (1.84), opposing batting average (.212) and strikeouts (195). Head coach Dan McDonnell is in his seventh season at UofL, having guided the program to the NCAA Regionals in five of his first six seasons.
Louisville leads the all-time series, 17-5, with the last meeting opening the conference season at Bainton Field in 2011. The Cardinals took the first two games of the set before RU answered with a victory in the finale. The Scarlet Knights last traveled to Patterson Stadium in 2010.
Rutgers will play its first game in the state of New Jersey Wednesday, March 26 at Rider. First pitch is scheduled for 3:30 p.m.

Infinity IT-8500 Zero Gravity Massage Chair
The Infinity IT-8500 is Infinity Therepeutic's most advanced massage chair being their marquee model in the 8000 series. You can get multiple levels of therapy through a variety of relaxation and enhanced massage techniques. You can use Zero Gravity to go into a natural state of relaxation or use Inversion therapy to help naturally stretch tight muscles throughout your body. If you want a good (or great) lower leg and foot massage get excited about the three roller foot roller under the soles off the feat - unique only to select models of the Infinity Massage Chair line.
Special Massage Functions
The Infinity IT -8500 is loaded with special massage functions. It has six in total that will enhance the massage and relaxation experience. There's Inversion Recline which reclines the body up to 178 degrees, not as extreme as an inversion table, but just enough to stretch the body and most importantly the spine. It also has the widely adopted Zero Gravity recline. For those not familiar this is a NASA derived technique that puts the body into a natural state of relaxation by elevating the legs and feet above the heart (think of being cradled like a baby). The Spinal Correction uses a combination of the hip, seat, and back airbags teamed up with the roller to stretch and relieve the back. Looking for a good stretch then you'll love the Tru-Grip V Stretch, which is designed after popular and well known thai stretching techniques. Many massage chairs have a hard time targeting the Neck and Upper Shouder area, well Infinity knows this, and that's why they added the Accu-Roll Shoulder and Neck massage. This advancement can read and detect the upper portion of the back for a more pointed massage. Last but definitely not least is the Seat Sway or Waist Twist Function. Modeled after the Dreamwave function on the Inada Sogno dreamwave, it uses a combination of airbags and its swivel mechanism to twist the hips and lower back provding a passive motion to the back.
Massage Features
Massage Roller
Concerned about having multiple people of varying heights use the Infinity IT-8500? Don't be, the IT-8500 has a 30 inch Massage Roller which is one of the longest ranges of any chair. This can accommodate and massage the lower back, all the way up to the neck of someone 5'1"' to 6'4". So we got it, there's a large range, well what about the massage roller itself? This is a Quad-Style Roller which means four total massage heads, two on top, two on bottom (think pointer finger and thumbs x2). This design is common among many massage chairs and offers deep relief with a variety of massage methods. Ok, you get it, large range, deep tissue massage, but what about massage for my feet? Great question future massage chair owner. You'll be happy to know that the It-8500 has one of the most advanced Foot Rollers available. There are Three Rollers located at the soles of the feet that work the soles in a true deep tissue fashion. People who are on their feet all day, or suffer from chronic foot ailments will get the pain kneaded out quickly with 3 Levels of Intensity. Who are we kidding, we use our feet everyday, and in most cases a lot, so a deep foot massage is something we can all benefit from.
Airbags, you know they're in there, but where exactly, and why? The IT-8500 has airbags located in the Neck Pillow, the Hips, the Arms, the Shoulders, the Seat, the Feet, and the Calves. There are 38 Total Airbags throughout the chair, that's 2 more than it's little brother the IT-8200. The beauty of the airbags is they compliment the massage roller so well. They expand, squeeze, and pulse the muscles in areas the rollers can't reach. They promote the blood flow by pushing the blood in and out of the muscles. This has a domino effect promoting lymphatic flow and the body's natural rejuvenation process. Not to mention it feels great and helps you relax.
Of course we all want a chair that's easy to use, ideally with a plug and play mentality. This is what programs are for. There are 16 Program Combinations on the Infinity IT-8500 all offering a unique experience. These programs combine different therapeutic methods with different features all based around the natural benefits of each method. We've provided a quick list so you can get acquainted with what comes preset in the IT-8500. They include Kneading, Tapping, Knocking, Shiatsu, Combination, Refresh, Relax, Extend, and Recover.

Nice and Deep! Review by John N
I had the chance to try a similar Infinity chair at a trade show, and was very impressed with the massage - it was really deep and hit me in all the right spots. So i decided to purchase one, and couldn't be happier. The foot massage is nice and intense, perfect for after a long day of hiking. It also has a waist sway program, that my wife really loves. Installation was also fairly easy, however I do suggest having at least one other person to assist.
Too rough. Actually left bruises on the scapula. Review by Greg
I ordered this chair in the beginning of February and it was finally delivered on April 16, 2014. There were numerous delays due to the backorder.
Once the chair arrived, the assembly instructions were vague and left out pertinent information.
Once the chair was assembled, I used the RECOVER mode for 30 minutes and it was not comfortable. The next morning I woke feeling like I had been beaten with a baseball bat. I had bruises on my scapulas and just above the buttocks. I now have a 1" pad on it and it helps.
Had I sat in this chair prior to ordering, I would not have purchased this unit.
Great Chair Review by Billw
I love my Infinity IT-8500. Very relaxing after a long day at the office and I love to use after my workouts.
The only problem that I have had is with the Arm Massage. I contacted Emassagechair to help out, turns out I needed to make a minor adjustment. There was a minor pinch in the airhose from when I put it together. Everything is working great now!
Disappointed Review by Very Disappointed
My husband bought this chair for me, for my b-day (which was in the first week of November) he paid extra to get the "WHITE GLOVE TREATMENT" meaning when the chair is deliveried, they do the assembly. The delivery man told and showed my husband, that he had about 1 hour of training the night below on how to set the chair up and have it working properly. His work order actually showed the training the night before. The chair did not work from the beginning properly and did not get it fixed until 12-11-13 and as of 12-13-13 I am still waiting on
a new part to fix the remote and have been told they do not know when that part will be coming it its been on back order for some time now !!!! Why are you still selling this model with a bad remote when I was told that you know this remote has had issues.
Great purchase! Review by Missy
Very happy with everything except delivery was late.
Magnificant Review by Anagoge
The infinity 8500 produces a deep massage with emphasis on the back. The versatility of the four programs is a bonus with the other options (intensity) a plus. You can buy a less expensive chair, however, this chair is worth each penny. The staff at emassagechair provides expert, transparent advise.
Thorough Massage Review by Rich
I just received my new chair and I have to say that it is a bit deeper pressure that I expected. I really like all of the features though especially the stretch program which on here is called "extend". My wife uses a quilt over the back of the chair to lessen the intensity a bit. The material is very nice and it appears to be very well made. I like that the speakers are right on either side of your ears and my wife really likes the calf massage. It's a very thorough massage chair. Would recommend it to everyone except elderly or very sensitive people.
Happy in NYC! Review by Jun
I couldn't be more happy with my purchase of the 8500. It is everything I wanted in a massage chair and more. I called emassagechair and they were very knowledgeable. I told them what I was looking in a massage chair and they suggested this one, and they couldn't of been more right. I wanted a chair that had an aggressive massage with foot rollers. I had tried the Inada Dreamwave, but I thought the massage was too weak...plus it was the cost of a small car. However, I wanted something similar in functions, and the 8500 had everything and more.
relaxing, best seat in the house Review by bobd
this is a great chair to relax in. it has more pressure on the rollers than other chairs i have tried, and seems to be built quite well. It was a great purchase, the only reason i did not give it 5 stars is because i was looking for something more therapeutic in use with harder massage head contact, to release time built knots in the back, and also because it has less program modes than other massage chairs, but thats not necessarily a huge issue. the airbags are great and it gives a great feel on the feet, especially with the rollers. i am very happy with the chair and i have had it for several months. and the people at emassagechair.com are pretty amazing to work with. They will do whatever they can to make you happy. overall a great purchase.
Nice Stretch and Foot Massage Review by Arthur
Just got my new infinity massage chair. I'm so happy with all the cool things it does. The stretch is great and the roller really helps stretch out my tight back. The inversion is cool, although I've never tried an inversion before. Very good foot massage with the rollers and the airbags.
Great Customer Service! Review by Debbie
I purchased this chair online and we live on a hill that apparently does not allow for large trucks. The trucking company called and wasn't going to deliver my chair because they didn't have a small truck. Anyway, I called and talked to Heather and she was able to coordinate a small truck with the delivery company to get me my chair! I may have never gotten my chair if it wasn't for her help. Thanks Heather
Love my 8500 Review by Sheryl
My Infinity 8500 massage chair was delivered about a month ago and we are so happy with it. We tried the new uAstro chair at Brookstone and were looking for something that was similar but in a lighter color, we got the Taupe (kind of beige color). This one has all the massage features and I really like the stretch program it. My chair came in a week...couldn't have asked for more.

Father's Day is this weekend and we all know that dad doesn't need another tie. Jennifer Durbin has some fun ideas and a few Father's Day surprises.
A Forever Candy Jar
Love You to Pieces: Show dad you love him with a forever candy jar. For your Reeses Pieces loving dad, find a glass jar and use alphabet stickers to write "Love You to Pieces" on the side of the jar. Before giving the jar to dad, be sure to fill it to the brim with Reeses Pieces and throw in a backup bag just in case. When dad polishes off all of the candy he'll be able to refill the jar with anything he likes.
The Bouquet Dad Really Wants
Candy Bouquet: Dad is always getting mom a bouquet of flowers on Mother's Day so why not make dad a bouquet? Now, don't just make dad any old bouquet, make one with all of his favorite candy! Simply fill a flowerpot, bucket or can with floral foam and insert candy. You can turn any candy into a "flower" with a bamboo skewer or lollipop stick and tape or a hot glue gun. Tape dad's favorite candy bars to bamboo skewers, or use a hot glue gun to attach truffles to the top of lollipop sticks and arrange them like flowers in your floral foam. Use small candy, like Kisses, at the base of your arrangement for added yumminess.
A Gift Dad will LOVE
A Bucket of Beer: Make dad extra happy with a bucket full of his favorite beers and a gift certificate to his favorite beer shop or brewery for Father's Day. You can even add a little extra flair with pretzel filled tasting glasses from Bottle Revolution.
Have fun getting a little crafty for dad this Father's Day!
For all of Jennifer's tips pick up your own copy of her Tips for the Clueless Chick books and following the Clueless Chick on Facebook and Twitter.
Tune in next week for fun ideas for your next family movie night!

edited by Robert M. Wettstein, M.D.; New York City, Guilford Press, 1998, 438 pages, $45
High-profile cases ranging from the assassination attempt on President Reagan in 1981 to the shootings at the U.S. Capitol in July 1998 raise public questions about the association between severe mental illness and criminal behavior. After such incidents, public discussion briefly focuses on legal and legislative remedies, with calls for stricter sentencing or mandatory treatment. The debate seldom focuses on the effectiveness or existence of treatment programs and the possibility of addressing public concerns through the implementation of effective treatment models.
Treatment of Offenders With Mental Disorders shifts the debate by providing a thorough guide to the provision of mental health services to criminal offenders. Edited by Robert Wettstein and featuring 19 authors reviewing eight subjects, the collection serves as a strong introduction for any reader working in or interested in the field. The chapters review studies of existing treatment programs and often reflect the direct work and study of the authors. They also have a practical focus. For example, a chapter on administration extensively discusses the value of pursuing accreditation by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations, strategies for recruiting and retaining qualified staff, and the importance of allying with labor union representatives in implementing programs.
Other topics include the legal underpinnings of treatment and treatment programs based in hospitals, correctional facilities, and the community. Additional attention is given to three special populations: juvenile offenders, sex offenders, and offenders with mental retardation. The absence of the redundancy often seen in collections with multiple authors reveals a strong and clear editor's perspective. In general, the chapters are well written and organized, and they include extensive bibliographies.
An introduction or summary providing the editor's perspective on the importance of the topic would have enhanced the text. While an initiated reader may need little in the way of explanation or context of the issues raised here, a less-informed reader may wonder about the overall relevance of the treatment of offenders. The discussion of specific treatments for offenders with both mental illness and substance use disorders is underdeveloped throughout the text. In particular, a discussion of the role of dual diagnosis would have been a relevant addition to the chapter on community-based treatment. Reliance on literature of the 1980s provides a strong historical foundation for the authors' presentations; however, it may have prevented a more timely focus on current issues such as assertive community treatment, cost analysis, and the role of newer pharmacological agents.
The authors provide a thorough review of the development of treatment services for mentally ill offenders, and they also define the dual mandates of treating the individual and protecting society. Treatment of Offenders With Mental Disorders provides a comprehensive overview of services for offenders with mental disorders and will well serve any clinician or administrator working with this population.

Green Day: Rock Band ReviewGreen Day: Rock Band is, essentially, a game that tells you everything you need to know in its title. Pairing developer Harominx's established perpheral-based gameplay with a subtly modified gameplay structure introduced by The Beatles: Rock Band, it offers up the chance to sing along with and play guitar, bass, and drums on forty-seven tracks by Green Day, with support for six additional downloadable tunes.
Fans of Green Day's early work will be happy to see the inclusion of the band's third studio album 'Dookie' in its entirety. Even those less familiar with the band will find just about every Green Day song ever played on the radio. Song-specific band performances add a nice visual touch, with plenty of photos and live video performances to be unlocked.
Songs from albums 'American Idiot' and '21st Century Breakdown' are quite prevalent in the track list, though other albums like 'Insomniac,' 'Nimrod,' and 'Warning' only get cursory representation. Sadly, the band's first two (and edgiest) records, '1,039 Smoothed Out Slappy Hours' and 'Kerplunk,' are completely neglected. In fact, the focus on too few of the band's albums, coupled with only three playable venues, are two of the game's most significant shortcomings.
With few exceptions, Billy Joe Armstrong's lead guitar tracks are quite strummy. I've always been terrible at alt-strumming, but I'm pretty sure my ability to do so improved noticeably while playing expert guitar in Green Day: Rock Band. Drummer Tre' Cool's manic percussion should offer a decent challenge for the drumming folk, and Mike Dirnt's bass grooves and vocal harmonies are a bit more varied and fun than expected.
Green Day: Rock Band mostly achieves its goals as a game, but limited track variety and awkward lyrical censorship keep the game from being a completely definitive piece of fan-service.
Green Day: Rock Band is available for the PlayStation 3, Wii, and Xbox 360.
