Homeowner's Association - HOA
Definition of 'Homeowner's Association - HOA'
An organization in a subdivision, planned community or condominium that makes and enforces rules for the properties in its jurisdiction. HOAs also collect monthly or annual dues to pay for upkeep of common areas like parks, tennis courts, elevators and swimming pools and can levy special assessments on homeowners when the association lacks sufficient reserves to pay for unexpected repairs.
Investopedia explains 'Homeowner's Association - HOA'
Some homeowners associations are very picky about what their members can do with their properties, such as whether Christmas lights can be hung or what kind of window coverings may be used. Others are more relaxed and just want to generally keep property values up by doing things like mowing the grass in common areas and preventing homeowners from painting their homes unusual colors.
Homeowners associations can also have significant legal power over the property owners in their jurisdiction. They can place a lien on a property if a homeowner falls behind on his dues, for example. |

Regular Season Done at RSL |
Clubs - Top Club Leagues |
The 2011 Super League regular season is over with several teams playing for pride or just trying to end with a positive note. The game with most at stake was the Life University and Boston clash, with the winner to get home field advantage in the semi final game between the two sides in two weeks. It was an absorbing clash, played at a high tempo pace that never relented. Boston got off to an great start, with Nick Elrick kicking a penalty immediately following the start of the game. Ten minutes later, Life took advantage of a Boston knock on by sending winger Steve Petzel over in the corner for an unconverted try. Shortly after, Life were awarded a penalty near the Boston line and center Paul Emerick, sensing a mismatch, took the quick tap and crashed over for a try. Five minutes later, it was Boston to take advantage of a knock-on, with Elrich getting over the line for a try. After a long period of territorial advantage, Brennan Moore scored for Boston, and the Elrick conversion pushed the score to 15-10 for Boston. Shortly after, a missed pass in Life's midfield was pounced upon by Elrick who took it 50 meters for another score. His conversion brought the score to 22-10. Deep into the first half, Petzel scored again for the visitors, and the Aaron McMaster conversion left the score at 22-17. The second half was equally entertaining, starting with Mark Aylor scoring Life's fourth try about five minutes in, recapturing the lead but more importantly securing the bonus point and guaranteeing home field advantage for the semifinal. Life extended the lead shortly after, with prop Seth Strauss running a great angle on a pop pass to crash over the tryline, McMaster again converting. Boston replied quickly, with Marcus McAllister evading several would-be tacklers to narrow the gap to 27-31. Life would have the final say however, with reserve Tui Osborne finishing off a long run to leave the final score at 36-27 in Life's favor.

SCOTUS should overturn DOMA, Obama administration says
February 23, 2013 - 08:27 am
The Obama administration is urging the U.S. Supreme Court to strike down parts of the Defense of Marriage Act, according to POLITICO.
In a brief filed Friday, the Obama administration is arguing that the 1996 law barring recognition of same-sex couples by the federal government for income tax purposes, federal employee benefits and other programs violates equal protection guarantees under the constitution.
The Obama administration has pushed courts to overturn the Defense of Marriage Act for two years.

Who is Candice Swanepoel: Bikini model in hot water with Victoria's Secret?
January 15th, 2013
What do you think of when you hear the words "Victoria's Secret?" If you are into fashion the first four things that come to mind are bras, underwear, lingerie, and bikinis. But when you hear the name Candice Swanepoel, what do you think? If you were following trending topics online the second week of Jan. in 2013 you might be thinking about Frankie's Bikinis. The Victoria's Secret model may have goofed up when she posted a picture of herself wearing a new bikini -- one from the rival company -- less than a week before the 2013 swimwear she posed for on behalf of VS hit stores nationally on the 15th. Was posting a mistake? Keep reading... More good news and green gossip on this [...]

[JURIST] Australian Guantanamo Bay detainee David Hicks [JURIST news archive] was stripped of British citizenship just one day after he was secretly made a citizen in July, the Sydney Morning Herald reported Saturday. Hicks' court battle for British citizenship ended in May when the UK Court of Appeals said that it would not allow further appeals [JURIST report] from the British government in the case. A month earlier, the court ruled [text; JURIST report] that Hicks, whose mother is a British citizen, should be granted citizenship over the government's objections based on public policy concerns [JURIST report]. Hicks was informed on July 6 that his citizenship application had been approved, but a day later was told that UK Home Secretary John Reid [official profile] had revoked citizenship. A provision [text] of the Immigration, Asylum and Nationality Act 2006, which took effect [JURIST report] in March, allows the Home Secretary to "deprive a person of a citizenship status if the Secretary of State is satisfied that deprivation is conducive to the public good."Hicks' British lawyer said that he was not advised of the developments until after Reid had already taken action and said that Hicks had not been afforded the opportunity to seek legal advice after learning about the decisions to grant and revoke citizenship. Hicks' legal team plans to appeal to the Special Immigrations Appeals Commission [HMCS backgrounder] and petition British courts for judicial review. Hicks has been held at Guantanamo since late 2001, when he was captured in Afghanistan - where he allegedly fought for the Taliban - and turned over to US forces. Accused [charges, PDF] of conspiracy to commit war crimes, aiding the enemy and attempted murder, he was one of ten Guantanamo detainees facing trial by military commissions [JURIST news archive] before the US Supreme Court ruled that the commissions were illegal under military law and the Geneva Conventions as initially constituted. Hicks' fate is still uncertain, but the Australian Attorney General said last week that Australia would seek Hicks' release from Guantanamo [JURIST report] if new charges are not brought and a military tribunal formed by November. The Sydney Morning Herald has more.
[JURIST] Federal prosecutors have reached a deferred-prosecution agreement with investment banker Frank Quattrone [NNDB profile] that would allow Quattrone to avoid a third trial on obstruction of justice and witness tampering charges [indictment, PDF], according to sources close to the negotiations. Quattrone, one of the dot-com era's most prominent investment bankers, is accused of forwarding emails to fellow employees at Credit Suisse [corporate website], encouraging them to "clean up" files and other evidence in the midst of an SEC investigation into whether the company was selling shares to preferential buyers during initial public offerings. Quattrone's first trial resulted in a mistrial [JURIST report] after the jury could not agree on a verdict, but Quattrone was later convicted [JURIST report] for sending a 22-word e-mail encouraging colleagues to destroy files. The conviction was overturned [JURIST report] by a federal appeals court in March on the grounds that the jury instructions were erroneous.The agreement has yet to receive court approval, but is not expected to include an admission of guilt from Quattrone or limit his future business dealings. After an appeal [JURIST report] by Quattrone, the US Securities and Exchange Commission [official website] earlier this year reversed a lifetime ban [JURIST report] preventing Quattrone from working in the securities industry. Saturday's New York Times has more.
[JURIST] Saddam Hussein [JURIST news archive] could continue to be tried posthumously if he is found guilty and sentenced to death for crimes against humanity charges [JURIST report] stemming from a crackdown in the Iraqi town of Dujail, according to a US official. Hussein's second trial [JURIST report] is scheduled to begin Monday, but a verdict has not yet been returned in the first case. The Iraqi High Tribunal is set to deliver a verdict on the Dujail charges on October 16, and Hussein is eligible for the death penalty [JURIST report]. Should Hussein be sentenced to death or life in prison, he is entitled to an automatic appeal. If a death sentence is upheld on appeal, the sentence must be carried out within 30 days, and this could occur before Hussein's second trial is concluded.In the new trial, Hussein and six co-defendants are charged with genocide and crimes against humanity [JURIST report] in connection to the so-called "Anfal" operation [HRW backgrounder] that led to the killings of as many as 100,000 Kurds in northern Iraq in the 1980s. Iraq President Jalal Talabani [BBC profile] has called for Hussein to be tried on all charges before any verdict is enforced. Talabani has previously expressed opposition to the death penalty, saying last year that he would refuse to sign a death warrant for Hussein [JURIST report]. AFP has more.
[JURIST] US officials will release Murat Kurnaz [AI case sheet; chronology, PDF], a Turkish national with ties to Germany, from Guantanamo Bay [JURIST news archive] sometime next week, according to reports in the German media Saturday. Kurnaz was born in Germany and was in the process of obtaining German citizenship when he was arrested in Pakistan in 2001. He has been held at the US detention center since his transfer there in 2002. He had German residency status at the time of his arrest, and German authorities said earlier this year they were negotiating for his release [JURIST report] from Guantanamo.Last year, Kurnaz claimed [JURIST report] that he had been subjected to torture, physical abuse and sexual humiliation by US interrogators. German media report that Kurnaz could be released Tuesday, but the timing has not been confirmed by US or German officials. Reuters has more.
[JURIST] Lt. Col. Jeffrey R. Chessani, the US Marines commander in charge of the battalion implicated in the death of 24 civilians in Haditha [JURIST news archive] last November, did not order an immediate investigation into the deaths because he did not suspect any wrongdoing, according to a report in Saturday's Washington Post. The Post obtained a copy of the sworn statement Chessani made to military investigators, where Chessani said that he "did not see any cause for alarm" and that he believed at the time that killings followed a "complex attack" by insurgents involving a roadside bomb and an attempt to lure Marines to shoot into homes where civilians were located. Instead, it has been alleged that the civilians were murdered in cold blood [JURIST report], but Chessani said that when he first learned of allegations that the civilians were killed intentionally he thought that the claims were "baseless." Chessani could be charged with dereliction of duty, but there have been no charges filed in the case yet. Defense lawyers for others involved in the investigation say that charges could be brought next month. In addition to the criminal inquiry being conducted by the Naval Criminal Investigation Service [official website], US Army Major General Eldon Bargewell [Wikipedia profile] led an investigation into decisions made by Marine leadership, including Chessani. Bargewell's report [JURIST report] has not yet been released, but officials briefed on the investigation said that there was evidence that soldiers concealed and destroyed evidence [JURIST report] relating to the incident and were reluctant to hand over evidence. The Washington Post has more.
[JURIST] US Sen. Frank Lautenberg (D-NJ) [official website] said Friday that Congress should write into law some of the remedies that US District Judge Gladys Kessler imposed on the tobacco industry [JURIST news archive] after finding that tobacco companies conspired to deceive the public about the dangers of smoking. Kessler ruled Thursday that the tobacco industry is liable for civil racketeering charges [JURIST report; DOJ case materials] filed against the industry by the US Department of Justice in 1999, and ordered tobacco companies [PDF text] to publish "corrective statements" concerning the dangers of smoking and affix those statements to cigarette packaging.Philip Morris [corporate website] has announced plans to appeal the ruling [press release], and several other tobacco companies are also considering appeals. Lautenberg said that Congress should pass legislation incorporating the remedies imposed in case Kessler's ruling is overturned on appeal. Meanwhile, US Sen. Edward Kennedy (D-MA) [official website] and public health advocates are calling for the passage of legislation that would allow the Food and Drug Administration [official website] to regulate the tobacco industry. Opponents say that the industry is already subject to strict marketing restrictions and that additional federal oversight is unnecessary. AP has more.
[JURIST] US District Judge Reggie B. Walton on Friday denied the latest request by I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby [defense profile] to access classified information to prepare his defense on obstruction of justice and perjury charges [JURIST report] in connection to the leak of former CIA operative Valerie Plame's identity [JURIST news archive]. Walton has granted [JURIST report] Libby's defense team access to other classified documents, but in a ruling Friday said the "documents and information at issue are extremely sensitive and their disclosure could cause serious if not grave damage to the national security of the United States." Walton also said that the documents requested would not aid in the preparation of Libby's defense. Libby has pleaded not guilty [JURIST report] to the charges [indictment, PDF]. Libby has requested a one-month delay [JURIST report] in the trial, and if granted, the trial will begin mid-February. AP has more.

So I'm scrolling through boxingscene and I find this..
http://www.boxingscene.com/tim-bradley-giv...-he-beat--59445 And I can't help finding myself giving Tim Bradley props. Not only does Bradley rios sound like a tough fight but its a hard fight for Bradley. Hes just a competitor and wants to fight the best, which he should since he has an official win over pac. He might not be the most exciting guy to watch but he has tons of heart determination and he keeps finding ways to win. Besides his fight with casamayor I don't remember the last time Bradley had an easy fight, and he keeps going against arum! Can't help but love that! (Even thought it will probably work against him) Now I could see this fight being hard for Bradley because of his lack of power, rios would lose respect and just relentlessly pressure him. And if you want to prove rios deserves to be in the ring with pac why not have him go in there and prove himself against the guy who officially beat pac. What do you guys think |

Tim Bradleys career is the epitome of "be careful what you wish for"! He sold his sold to the devil (Arum lol). He shitted on more than worthy opponents. He not only got his dream fight but won. Ultimately, it may end up being the biggest roadblock in his career.

Via The Outside Corner:
The Kiss Cam: one of the staples of mid-game entertainment at ballparks across the country. Last Friday during the Colorado Springs Sky Sox-Fresno Grizzlies game in Fresno, the Grizzlies broke out the Kiss Cam during the game.
The first couple they showed didn't kiss despite the girl prodding her companion to alert him that they were on the jumbotron. He was on the phone (at a ballgame? Really?) and blew her off as the crowd reacted negatively. After cycling through a few more couples, the Kiss Cam returned to the first pair. The woman was rebuffed a second time to a much larger negative reaction from the crowd. Finally at the end of the segment, the camera returned to the couple, and the gentleman (and I use that term loosely) once again shot down his lady.
Finally, the girl just couldn't take it anymore. She stood up, dumped her drink all over the guy, and walked out. Perhaps the best part was the quizzical, confused look on his face as the girl walked up the aisle away from him as he sat there, covered in what looks like beer. The girl then gets a high five from the Grizzlies mascot on the concourse, and the man walks up the aisle with his tail tucked between his legs.
Moral of the story: if you're on Kiss Cam, just indulge your companion and give them a peck. Otherwise, you might end up covered in a beverage. Even if this was staged (which the circumstances make seem very plausible), it's still pretty hilarious.
I'm so glad she dumped that drink on him. What a freakin' tool this guy is.
That was soooooooo staged!
So your saying they were also able to insure that the camera found them in the crowd. Not likely.
don't blame him..I wouldn't kiss her either...eeks
Fake as heck. Giant "soda" turns out to be water rather than a dark liquid or even a clear pop like Sprite. Huge cup doesn't have a lid on it. Dude moves his phone away before she throws the drink. Plus the look on the guy's face after. Fake, fake, fake.
Looked like an act to me, but hey, still funny.
I wouldn't have kissed THAT either. way to go buddy
let her walk home also. -

This is a softer version of Burberry Brit which is my all time favorite. I love perfume and am always on the hunt for the perfect scent. Brit is the one which always gains me compliments from my husband, my kids, coworkers and even strangers on occasion. I find it a bit strong in the summer though and have reserved it only for evening use. Enter Burberry Brit Summer... perfect! This is a beautiful fragrance. I took a chance and ordered it without having smelled it first and am so glad I ordered the large size. It is a long lasting lovely scent that will not offend anyone. Get ready for the compliments...

A Journey Through the History of Rock & Roll Pinball
Capt. Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy (1975)First off, props to Elton John for rocking the Canada hockey jersey and endearingly cheesy smile-and-point move in the Capt. Fantastic flyer. The machine pictured here was inspired by two 1975 projects involving John: his album Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy and his role in the Tommy movie as a pinball kingpin who competes against the titular wizard. John appears on the Capt. Fantastic backglass (i.e., the non-playable panel art you see when first looking at a machine) as his disco-fied Where's Waldo character from Tommy, doing his damnedest to pull off the white bell-bottoms, sparkly red shirt, suspenders, beanie, ridiculous glasses, and comically giant boots ensemble. The backglass is easily the most striking thing about the Bally-made game, as its congested art also features a crowd of cartoon characters engaging in activities that were censored in later versions of the game. One woman gives the finger, another grips her breasts in ecstasy, a third reaches to grope a man behind her. By comparison, the table's playfield -- a splash of blue whose only other character-defining details are an image of piano keys and a few more depictions of Elton -- is totally benign. |

Kings Dominion is an amusement park in Doswell, Virginia 20 miles (32 km) north of Richmond and 75 miles (121 km) south of Washington, D.C., off Interstate 95.[1]
The 400-acre (1.6 km2) park in Hanover County was originally built and owned in a joint venture between the Taft Broadcasting Company and the Kroger Company.[2] Kings Dominion opened in 1975 and is currently owned by Cedar Fair Entertainment Company. It offers over 60 rides, shows and attractions including 14 roller coasters and a 20-acre (81,000 m2) water park.[3] The name given to the park is derived from the name of its sister park, Kings Island, and the nickname for the state of Virginia, "Old Dominion".
Early history as Kings Dominion (1972-83)[edit]
Following the success of Kings Island in Mason, Ohio, Family Leisure Centers (a partnership formed between Taft Broadcasting Company and Top Value Enterprises) decided to expand into a new region of the country by opening a second park. A 400-acre (1.6 km2) site was chosen in Doswell, Virginia in the heart of the Mid-Atlantic, and construction began on October 1, 1972.[4] The new park was designed with Kings Island in mind as the blueprint using similar themes, rides, and activities.
Kings Dominion officially opened on May 3, 1975[5] offering fifteen attractions including the Rebel Yell, the Lion Country Safari Monorail, Galaxie, and a junior wooden roller coaster known as Scooby Doo. Also present at the opening was a log flume, steam train, a collection of flat rides and a cable-car sky ride that transported visitors between Old Virginia and The Happy Land of Hanna-Barbera.[4] In addition, Kings Dominion's 1/3-scale replica of the Eiffel Tower and the International Street Fountain greet visitors near the main entrance to the park. Original themed areas included The Happy Land of Hanna-Barbera, International Street, Lion Country Safari, Old Virginia, and Coney Island.[6]
Kings Dominion added their fourth roller coaster, a Schwarzkopf shuttle loop known as the King Kobra, in 1977. The King Kobra featured a 50-ton counter weight drop launch and was the park's first launched roller coaster. It was in the park for nine seasons before being relocated to Jolly Roger Amusement Park in Ocean City, Maryland and later to Hopi Hari in Brazil where it exists today as Katapul.[7] Also in 1977, Kings Dominion was one of several amusement parks serving as location for the film Rollercoaster.
A campground was completed in time for the 1978 season and the park's well-known Lost World mountain debuted in 1979. Originally, the Lost World featured three rides: a flume ride called Voyage to Atlantis, a children's attraction mine ride known as Land of the Dooz, and a rotor called Time Shaft. Only a year later in 1980, the flume ride was rethemed Haunted River. Kings Dominion later expanded Old Virginia with the addition of the park's second wooden roller coaster, the Grizzly, in 1982 and a river rapids ride called White Water Canyon in 1983.
Growth under KECO management (1983-92)[edit]
Taft Broadcasting Company sold its theme park division in late 1983 for $167.5 million to Kings Entertainment Company (KECO), a new company formed by senior executives and general managers of Taft's Amusement Park Group.[8] Three parks were involved in the sale — Kings Island, Kings Dominion, and Carowinds — along with a 20-percent stake in Canada's Wonderland. American Financial Group later purchased KECO in 1987 but allowed KECO to continue to manage operations at the amusement parks.[9]
One of the first additions under the new management group was Berserker - a looping starship ride added to International Street in 1984. Also that year, Smurf Mountain replaced the mine ride Land of the Dooz, transforming the Lost World into The Smurfs theme. Kings Dominion unveiled a TOGO stand-up roller coaster in 1986 called Shockwave, the first of three roller coasters to be added under KECO. Shockwave has one loop like the older King Kobra but adds a helix. King Kobra was removed at the end of the season. A water slide complex known as Racing Rivers opened in 1987, and Avalanche, which remains the only Mack bobsled roller coaster in the United States, debuted the following year in 1988.[10] The trains of Avalanche are themed after the United States', France's, Germany's, Canada's and Switzerland's bobsleds, so that riders in different trains can simulate being in a bobsled race in the Winter Olympics.[11]
Kings Dominion continued to expand over the next few seasons starting with Hanna-Barbera Land in 1990 with the addition of more children's flat rides. A new, looping roller coaster from Arrow Dynamics called Anaconda was introduced the following year in 1991 featuring the world's first underwater tunnel which travels under part of Lake Charles. Anaconda was also originally billed as having six loops,[12] but unlike Arrow's six-inversion coaster Drachen Fire that opened at Busch Gardens Williamsburg the following year, the Anaconda actually has only four inversions: a vertical loop, a sidewinder, and two consecutive corkscrews.[13]
A new 20-acre (81,000 m2) water park addition called Hurricane Reef opened in 1992. To build the water park, Kings Dominion filled in two-thirds of Lake Charles near the Candy Apple Grove region of the park. Originally it featured the Monsoon Chutes (two pairs of free-fall body slides, at 70 and 50 feet (15 m) high, respectively), the Torrential Twist (two enclosed body slides which wrapped around each other), the Pipeline (four open body slides), Cyclone (three enclosed body slides, the center of which was a free-fall), Tidal Wave (two open slides, which riders rode on inner tubes), Splash Island (an area for children with five water slides), and a lazy river.[14]
Paramount era (1993-2006)[edit]
Kings Dominion continued its growth when it became part of Paramount Parks in 1993 and switched its name to Paramount's Kings Dominion. New attractions and areas of the park themed to Paramount's television shows and films appeared at Paramount's Kings Dominion almost every season that they were under Paramount's ownership. In 1993, they added a motion simulator attraction, originally featuring the Days of Thunder film, and Lion County Safari was removed at the end of the season. The 1994 season saw the addition of a new area of the park themed to the 1992 Paramount motion picture Wayne's World, which featured their third full-size wooden roller coaster, Hurler, a shop called the Rock Shop, and a Stan Mikita's restaurant similar to the one featured in the film. Since then, the Wayne's World section has been merged into the Candy Apple Grove (since renamed the Grove); the Stan Mikita's was converted to the Juke Box Diner, and the Hurler no longer has Wayne's World theming, except for a few spray painted "Wayne's World" logos near the exit of the ride. In the next year, another children's area, known as Nickelodeon Splat City, opened near the Shockwave roller coaster, this was a product of Viacom purchasing Paramount in 1994. This was later converted into Nick Central. Also Smurf Mountain was removed in 1995, leaving a dormant fiberglass mountain in the back of the park.
In 1996, Kings Dominion introduced its second launched roller coaster, and first LIM-launched roller coaster, The Outer Limits: Flight of Fear. The Outer Limits has a 56 miles per hour (90 km/h) launch, four inversions, and an identical "spaghetti bowl" layout to Flight of Fear at Kings Island. Almost as notable as the launch of The Outer Limits was the fact that the entire ride was in semi-darkness; the riders could not see where they were going. Five years after The Outer Limits opened, Paramount Parks' licensing agreement to use theming from the television show after which the ride was named expired; the Outer Limits-related theming in the ride and its queue was removed, and the ride was renamed Flight of Fear.
1997 featured the debut of KidZville, a re-theming of the Hanna-Barbera section. The park added the new Taxi Jam roller coaster, and Scooby's Playpark became a construction themed playpen called Kidz Construction Company. Yogi's Cave was rethemed to Treasure Cave and many rides in KidZville, such as Scooby Doo's Ghoster Coaster, George Jetson's Spaceport, and Huck's Hot Rods, continued to bear the names of Hanna-Barbera characters.
Kings Dominion continued what became a trend of adding launched roller coasters in 1998, when they opened Volcano, The Blast Coaster in the former Lost World mountain. The mountain's previous rides had all been removed several years prior, and Volcano gave the mountain a major transformation. Volcano, which was manufactured by Intamin, was the world's first LIM-launched inverted roller coaster. The ride featured two separate launch sections, an Immelman style loop out of the top of the mountain, and three heartline rolls on the way back down. Volcano was themed to the 1997 film Volcano; the other Paramount Parks added inverted or suspended roller coasters themed to Top Gun around the same time. During the next two seasons, Kings Dominion expanded Hurricane Reef behind the Rebel Yell and renamed it WaterWorks. The new portion of WaterWorks includes Pipeline Peak, a set of four enclosed water slides, one of which (the Night Slider) is the world's tallest dark free-fall slide. In 2000, Nick Central opened on what was Nick Splat City and part of Kidzville.[15]
The park added its third launched roller coaster, Hypersonic XLC, in 2001. Hypersonic XLC, a Thrust Air 2000 air-launched coaster made by S&S Power, launched riders from 0 to 80 miles per hour (130 km/h) in 1.5 seconds, taking them up an 87-degree incline and down an 87-degree drop.[16] The entire ride takes about 25 seconds. Hypersonic XLC broke down frequently and was closed for the first three months of its second season; no other Paramount Parks installed a similar ride.[17] Nevertheless, Hypersonic XLC helped establish Kings Dominion's reputation as "the launched coaster capital of the world".[18] Hypersonic XLC was removed after the 2007 season.
The early 2000s saw Kings Dominion opening new rides similar to existing rides at other Paramount Parks. In 2002, the park opened its new wild mouse roller coaster, Ricochet. Carowinds also installed their Ricochet in 2002. Diamond Falls, the Shoot-the-Chutes ride closed that season, leading to several seasons of speculation from park visitors over which ride would take its place. The 2003 season saw Kings Dominion become the final of several of the Paramount Parks to open a Drop Zone: Stunt Tower, now Drop Tower: Scream Zone. The 305-foot-high (93 m) Drop Zone at Kings Dominion was the tallest freefall ride in the world at the time it opened. In 2004, Kings Dominion added Scooby-Doo! And the Haunted Mansion; similar Scooby Doo-themed dark rides had opened at three other Paramount Parks during the three previous seasons. In the next season, Kings Dominion added an inverted top spin called Tomb Raider: Firefall, now The Crypt, which was an outdoor version of a similar ride named Tomb Raider: The Ride, also now The Crypt, at Kings Island. The differences between the two were that at Kings Dominion riders' feet dangle freely and at Kings Island there is a floor. In the 2006 season, Kings Dominion opened the Italian Job Turbo Coaster, its fourth launched roller coaster. Unlike the previously built launched coasters at Kings Dominion, each of which was faster than its predecessor, the Italian Job Turbo Coaster is designed more as a family ride and features several launches at 40 miles per hour (64 km/h). The coaster would later be renamed the Backlot Stunt Coaster in 2008. It is similar to the Backlot Stunt Coaster rides at Kings Island and Canada's Wonderland, which both opened in 2005.
On May 22, 2006, Cedar Fair Entertainment Co. announced that they were purchasing all five Paramount Parks.[19] The sale was finalized on June 30, 2006 for $1.24 billion.[20] The park retained its Paramount's Kings Dominion name through the end of the 2006 season and reverted to its original Kings Dominion name beginning in the 2007 season.
Cedar Fair era (2007-present)[edit]
Control of the Paramount Parks had been transferred from Viacom to CBS Corporation at the start of the 2007 season. For the 2007 season, the park lowered its single-day admission by $5 to $44.95,[21] one year after Cedar Point had made the same change to their ticket prices. This was the first time that Kings Dominion has ever lowered their ticket prices for a full season.[21] In addition, they brought back their Starlight discount, which allows admission to the park for $29.99 after 4pm.[21] Kings Dominion expanded WaterWorks for the 2007 season, adding a second wave pool called Tidal Wave Bay, a four-person family raft slide called Zoom Flume, and a ProSlide Tornado.[21]
During the Cedar Fair era, the park introduced Halloween Haunt. While the park had always had a Halloween event, the new HAUNT event has been received very well.
In December 2006, Kings Dominion also put Hypersonic XLC up for sale.[22] The park announced plans to keep it running until a buyer was found. It remained in operation during the 2007 season and was closed and dismantled several weeks before the 2008 season started. Also during the 2007-2008 offseason, Cedar Fair renamed the park's last two rides to open with Paramount theming. Drop Zone Stunt Tower became Drop Tower Scream Zone, The Italian Job: Turbo Coaster became Backlot Stunt Coaster, and Tomb Raider: Firefall received the name The Crypt. The Paramount Theater also changed its name to Kings Dominion Theater.[23]
The 2008 and 2009 seasons saw Kings Dominion receive three rides which had operated at Geauga Lake during its dry amusement park's final season. On October 23, 2007, Kings Dominion announced that Dominator, a floorless roller coaster, would be moved to Kings Dominion and located in the International Street section.[24] Dominator opened on May 24, 2008, becoming Kings Dominion's first roller coaster with five inversions. For the 2009 season, two flat rides once located at Geauga Lake, like Dominator, opened in 2009. Located near Rebel Yell, Americana became Kings Dominion's first Ferris wheel.[25] El Dorado, a pendulum ride, opened in the former site of Hypersonic XLC next to the Xtreme Skyflyer.
For the 2010 season, Kings Dominion opened Intimidator 305, a 305 ft (92.464 m) tall gigacoaster by Intamin. The ride features a cable lift hill, an 85° first drop and a maximum speed of at least 94 mph (145 km/h). The ride, which is themed to NASCAR driver Dale Earnhardt, was announced on August 20, 2009, and represents the park's largest-ever capital investment. It is open as of May 2010.[26] Also for the 2010 season, the Kidzville and Nickelodeon Universe areas of the park are being re-themed to Planet Snoopy, as are the children's areas at Canada's Wonderland and Kings Island. The park has renamed the Hanna-Barbera themed rides in Kidzville to match the Planet Snoopy theme, ending the park's 35-year run with Scooby Doo and other Hanna-Barbera characters.
For the 2012 season, Kings Dominion installed WindSeeker in the Grove section of the park next to the Juke Box Diner. There are other versions of the ride in Cedar Fair parks such as Canada's Wonderland, Cedar Point, Kings Island, Knott's Berry Farm, and Carowinds. The ride stands 301 ft tall and gives riders a view of the surrounding area.[27] Kings Dominion also added Dinosaurs Alive!, an upcharge dinosaur walkthrough exhibit, located in the Old Virginia section of the park. This attraction also appears at Kings Island, Cedar Point, and Canada's Wonderland.[27]
For the 2013 season, Planet Snoopy merged with KidZville during a 7-acre (2.8 ha) expansion to form the largest Planet Snoopy in the Cedar Fair chain. There are now 18 attractions covering 14 acres (5.7 ha).[28]
For the 2014 season, Kings Dominion will be bringing back features from previous seasons to commemorate the 40th Anniversary of Lion Country Safari. This includes the return of the classic singing mushrooms, the repainting of Anaconda, a better queue line for Volcano: The Blast Coaster, and the return of blue ice cream. The floral clock will return, along with the clown band. A new LED light package will be added to the parks fountains as well. In addition to those, the park is re-theming Congo into Safari Village and will also be re-theming the Drop Tower midway into Candy Apple Grove.
Current areas and attractions[edit]
International Street[edit]
International Street is the park's main walkway area, which greets guests when they enter the park. Both sides of the walkway are lined with shops, including two park related souvenir shops just inside the park's front gate. Originally, only the walkway and its shops were considered part of the International Street area;[29] during the park's Paramount seasons, the boundaries of International Street expanded to include the Action Theater.[30]

Along with International Street, Old Virginia is the only original section of Kings Dominion that has kept its same name throughout the park's history. In the 1970s, Old Virginia had an Intamin Flying Dutchman flat ride called Jamestown Landing; behind it, Old Virginia had a 3 ft (914 mm) narrow gauge[32][33] steam train ride, Old Dominion Line, which ran through the woods in the back of the park.[34] Jamestown Landing closed by 1980;[29] the Old Dominion Line stayed until it closed in the 1990s.

Candy Apple Grove is Kings Dominion's largest area in the park. The area opened with an orchard theme complete with large candy apples, the popular animatronic Singing Mushrooms, and three apple-themed rides: Apple Turnover,[35] Bad Apple, and Adam's Apple. In honor of Kings Dominion's 40th anniversary celebration in 2014, Candy Apple Grove will return with its original theme including the newly developed Mushrooms [36] which will be located across from the Dodgem.

WaterWorks is Kings Dominion's water park. It opened in 1992 and is included with admission to Kings Dominion.
In 2013, the park's "Halloween Haunt" event featured a walk-through maze called Miner's Revenge. Advertisements for the attraction characterized it as "the worst coal mine accident in history,"[39] and the attraction featured depictions of dead miners' bodies that had been mangled by a mining disaster.
The attraction drew criticism in the press for being in poor taste due to the region's experience with mine disasters. Washington Post writer Peter Galuszka (author of a book on the Upper Big Branch Mine disaster)[40] said that the attraction "hits a little too close to home for me" since "The idea of abandonment is a difficult topic for miners. At Kings Dominion, the suggestion of living miners left to die is meant to inject some enjoyable dramatic tension",[41] while in the Washington Monthly, Kathleen Geier decried that "agonizing deaths are being served up for fun and profit to the gawking, peanut-crunching masses" and asked "What next — a thrill ride based on the Rana Plaza factory disaster in Bangladesh? Auschwitz: The Theme Park?".[42]
Following the controversy, Kings Dominion stated that they will not operate Miner's Revenge in the future.
Fast Lane[edit]
Fast Lane is Kings Dominion's virtual queue system. For $60, visitors get a wrist band that enables them to get to the front of the line on 15 of the most popular attractions without queueing.
Halloween Haunt[edit]
Halloween Haunt is an annual Halloween event at Kings Dominion. It debuted in 2000 as FearFest[43] but was renamed Halloween Haunt in 2008 to match other Cedar Fair parks.
Current attractions[edit]
As of 2013[update], Halloween Haunt features 16 attractions including ten mazes and six scare zones.[44]

U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood called on Congress to pass the transportation portion of the American Jobs Act during a visit to the Bridgeport-Norristown Viaduct outside Philadelphia, a century-old passenger rail bridge that is among the hundreds of pieces of transportation infrastructure across Pennsylvania in serious need of upgrades and repairs.
The investments made under the transportation portion of the American Jobs Act could put hundreds of thousands of people to work in Pennsylvania and around the country, renovating and rebuilding roads, rails and runways.
"There's no such thing as a Democratic or Republican bridge, and there's no such thing as a Democratic or Republican job when it comes to rebuilding our aging infrastructure," said Secretary LaHood, who was joined by state and local officials. "Congress needs to pass the transportation portion of the American Jobs Act as soon as possible so we can continue to modernize our transportation systems and keep our economy moving forward."
The transportation piece of President Obama's American Jobs Act would make an immediate investment of $50 billion in America's transportation infrastructure and put people back to work upgrading 150,000 miles of road, laying or maintaining 4,000 miles of train tracks, restoring 150 miles of runways and putting in place a next-generation air-traffic control system that will reduce travel time and delays.
The President's legislation would also make a $10 billion investment to create a nonpartisan National Infrastructure Bank that would operate independently and issue loans for major transportation and infrastructure projects based on two criteria: how badly a road, bridge, transit, water or energy project is needed and how much good it would do for the economy.
The Jobs Act would invest $50 billion in crucial transportation projects, including about $1.4 billion for projects across Pennsylvania. As part of that $1.4 billion, Pennsylvania would receive $384.2 million in much-needed federal transit assistance that could be used to repair and rehabilitate infrastructure such as the Bridgeport Viaduct that Secretary LaHood visited, which was built by the Philadelphia and Western Railroad a century ago in 1911.
The transportation investments made under the American Jobs Act include:
