No doubt many people can recognize the name of Darjeeling, having long emblazoned the sides of tea tins and tags. Yet, the leaves that steep in waters around the world are just a taste of the exotic town that's also one of India's most popular hill stations. For travelers who want to immerse themselves in the origins of the iconic brew, Darjeeling's tea plantations offer a glimpse into the process.
Lay of the land
Tea gardens abound in and around Darjeeling. The mountainous terrain provides a good lookout over these estates, which form a lush and beautiful patchwork across the landscape. One of the best ways to take in the expanse of the gardens is a ride on the Darjeeling-Rangit Valley Passenger Cable Car, which gives an aerial view of those plantations, according to Darjeeling's government website.
Yet, neither of these options rival seeing the gardens up close. Many tea estates throughout Darjeeling allow tours through their land, where travelers can get an intimate understanding of the business of tea, from growth to harvesting. Depending on the time of year, visitors may be treated to the sight of tea growers plucking leaves or workers processing the season's yield, according to Lonely Planet. The best months to witness a tea garden in action are between March and November, but travelers should note that summers can get quite hot and fall is monsoon season.
Gardens to see
The Happy Valley tea garden is a popular destination little more than half a mile away from the center of town. While close to the city, it is a restive escape from the town's bustle. To get there, visitors can simply walk downhill to the estate or, for a more scenic experience, take a pony from nearby Chowrasta?, according to the region's website. Once there, they should be able to walk through the gardens themselves, thanks to a cooperative that has kept them open even during temporary closures.
Another common destination for tea explorers is the Glenburn Tea Estate, a small plantation that offers hotel accommodations in addition to estate tours. The tea company that established the estate is younger than the Happy Valley tea garden, having been founded a mere five years after in 1859. Guests may take a walk or a drive through the tea fields, where a guide will narrate how a tea brush is grown, tended and plucked. At the factory, visitors will then see how the leaves are withered, rolled, fermented, dried and sorted before being packaged and sent around the world.

These are a pair of 1/48 Academy models Challenger 1 tanks. They are meant to give my Modern British some heavy support.

You already painted a foe for the Challengers - zombies. A perfect enemy while waiting for something better to come along.ReplyDeleteReplies
Of course. How silly of me! Thanks!Delete
Very nice! I do like Academy kits, and the Challenger is easily my favourite 'non-WWII' tank too. These look great :)ReplyDeleteReplies
The price on these models certainly couldn't be beat, and they were super quick to put together...
I thought you already have an assortment of Soviets and East Germans to pit against the British troopers? Or did I get that recent BTR-Post wrong?ReplyDeleteReplies
Oh sure, I have a few... I don't think the BTRs aren't going to stand up to Challengers very long though. The Soviets and Germans have very little in the way of anti-armour capability. I also only have one squad of East Germans... maybe two squads of Russians... I have some more stuff on hand to paint, however, so expect that shortly!!Delete
Nice British kit. Nothing quite like a Chally for sheer awesomeness.ReplyDelete
Are the yellow tad markings decals?Replies
No, I hand painted all the markings.
Wow! These look great - a very impressive force ;)ReplyDelete

Dementia – a journey of caring
20 September 2013 by Dawn
September is World Alzheimer's Month, with many organisations also marking Saturday 21 September, World Alzheimer's Day, to shine a global spotlight on the fight against the disease. The theme this year is 'Dementia – a journey of caring', an idea which resonates very strongly with the House of Memories dementia awareness training at the Museum of Liverpool.

Help an archaeologist!

"Yesterday Clare Ahmed, Archaeological Project Officer, and I ran the first of two 'Help an Archaeologist' sessions this week. The interactive family sessions are being held as part of the Festival of Archaeology events at the Museum of Liverpool.
We had a really busy afternoon with lots of children and their families taking part in different hands-on activities, including a handling session involving Roman artefacts, sorting Post-Medieval finds, drawing, weighing and describing Roman and Post-Medieval finds to record them and helping on a simulated dig. We also had a number of craft activities including colouring sheets, worksheets, cutting and glueing tasks and quizzes. Read more…
Feel good Friday
19 July 2013 by Dawn
It's National Feel Good Day today and it really does feel like it with the sun out shining and that Friday feeling. The idea is to brighten up someone's day by paying them a compliment, telling family and friends how great they are, or even smiling at a stranger. The campaign is being driven by a private cosmetic surgery, which causes me to raise an eyebrow, but regardless of the motivation behind it, it's hard to find fault with the sentiment. Read more…

text: An obscure bit of Chicago jazz – featuring vocalist Luba Raushiek, kind of a self-styled spiritualist, with an approach that hits both traditional modes, and more far-out soulful ones – running through styles that range from Leon Thomas to Billy Eckstine, as was typical for a small club vocalist like this. The record's not great – but it's a valuable bit of Chicago jazz, as Raushiek did sing in quite a few of the city's clubs in the 70s and 80s, and he's helped here by players like John Young, Ari Brown, and Von Freeman. Titles include "Impressions", "Well You Needn't", "Enterprise", and "Love Makes The World Go Round". (Cover has a stain along the spine.) © 1996-2014, Dusty Groove, Inc.

Leathers, jackets & suits
05 September 2012 10:04
Rukka jacket/trousers (superseded, try Arma-S £1099/£769)Miles covered/time: 15,000/five years
What's good: Liner in, vents zipped up, winter rain… liner out, vents zipped open, summer sun… this truly is all-weather riding gear.
More than five years of almost daily use and my Rukka gear is still in great condition. It has never leaked and all the zips and fasteners have remained resolutely snag-free.
Comfort is excellent. The joy of this suit is in the materials and the detail. There's Gore-Tex, Kevlar, a soft neoprene collar, the liner has Rukka's Outlast insulation designed to regulate your temperature and there's comfortable CE armour throughout.
There are also reflective patches and a generous number of waterproof outer pockets and secure inner pockets. The trousers are held up by braces (which amuse twanging colleagues) and can be zipped to the jacket for added security and draught-free comfort.
What's not: The performance has been flawless, but the one fly in the ointment is the price. Rukka gear is scorchingly expensive, but is also very well made and reassuringly durable.
There are plenty of other firms out there making all-weather gear for much less money.

The physics engine-the software that determines how cars handle -is the essence of any racing sim. Although Kaemmer began with his old Papyrus code, he was determined to ratchet up authenticity to unprecedented levels. "We have to convince the real-world racers that virtual racing is not just a game," he says. "The sim racers, on the other hand, want some validation that this is what racing is really like."
The iRacing cars are so hard to handle and require so much practice to master that they'll scare off casual gamers accustomed to simpler pleasures. But Kaemmer figured he could count on the support of serious simmers, and he was gambling that his new product would appeal to three thus-far-untapped audiences: pros who could use it for training and coaching; real-world racers who'd never taken sims seriously; and crewmen and course workers who are so close to, yet so far away from, getting any seat time of their own.
iRacing has already made a convert out of Jim Daniels, a championship-winning driver/builder who cofounded the Spec Miata class. "I've got in-car videotapes from some of my [real-world] Legends races, and they match the sim exactly," he says. "When you race online, it's really a race. The intensity is the same, and my heart is pounding when I'm warming up the tires. I think this is going to get to the level of go-karting."
At the moment, iRacing consists of forty-two employees, a chief steward, and a small server farm near Boston. But the size of the operation easily could be scaled up as membership warrants. "We'd like to have over 100,000 customers," Gardner says. To which Kaemmer adds: "We'd like to have over a million!"
Heads up, NASCAR. There's a new kid in town.

Safe from the Sun walk raising melanoma awareness
Organizers for the walkathon, Cindy Pickett, of Elmore, and Eleanor Riffle, of Millbury, are dedicating the event in honor of Pickett's son, Micah, a 2000 graduate of Lake High School, who was diagnosed with melanoma in 2005. "Though Micah is doing well, we wanted to increase awareness about melanoma and to raise funds for the Melanoma International Fund," said Riffle, who is Micah's mother-in-law.
Registration for the 5K, three-mile walk is $20 per person, which includes a t-shirt. Participants will get a goodie bag containing sunscreens and information about skin cancer.
Pre-registration is available at www.safefromthesun.org. Registration will also be available the day of the event, though there will be no guarantee of receiving a t-shirt.
Supporters of the event include Mercy St. Charles Cancer Center and Mercy Health Partners and Mr. Emblem.
Registration will begin at 10:30 a.m. for the walk, which begins at noon. The honorary chairperson of this year's walk is attorney Tom Helberg. The walk will begin in the zoo's Anthony Wayne parking lot.
Proceeds from the walk support research and programs and services, including support groups, the Helpline service, Safe Return program, care consultation services, a speakers' bureau, resource libraries and many other free educational programs and services to individuals, their families and caregivers.
The symbolic walk is less than one mile. To register or make a donation, call 1-800-272-3900 or visit www.alz.org/nwohio.

For more information, call Jeff Bassett at 419-516-3261.
The event, which reunites families to celebrate the accomplishments of former NICU patients, will feature crafts and games, entertainment, refreshments and a surprise visitor.
"The staff and NICU families really enjoy spending this time together," says Judy Gresky, NICU director. "Our jobs can be emotionally demanding, but seeing the children as they grow and thrive helps us to remember why we get up each morning and do what we do."
Toledo Children's Hospital NICU has the region's largest Level III NICU and a Level III Regional Perinatal Center for high-risk infants.
For more information about Toledo Children's Hospital, visit www.promedica.org.

"There are several simple steps all of us can take to prepare for emergencies in our homes, businesses and communities," said Annie Marckel, communications manager for the Western Lake Erie Region of the American Red Cross. "One of those is blood donation."
Supporting blood donation or giving blood is paramount to any community preparedness plan since hospitals need blood on the shelves to respond to patient need.
To learn more about National Preparedness Month, visit redcross.org or ready.gov. Find out how to be Red Cross Ready through a free on-line tutorial that takes about 20 minutes. Visit redcross.org/BeRedCrossReady.

Welcome to the Georgia Master Gardener Extension Volunteer Program!
The Master Gardener program in Georgia is a volunteer training program designed to help University of Georgia Cooperative Extension staff transfer research-based information about gardening and related subjects to the public by training home gardeners. Master Gardener Extension Volunteers are active in many Georgia counties. Through this program, Cooperative Extension is able to reach out and serve more citizens with educational programming and demonstrations in these 5 target areas:
Environmental Stewardship – Increasing awareness and knowledge of landscape and garden management for the optimum use and protection of the environment, including management of all aspects of the residential landscape (soil, plants, insects, diseases, and wildlife); and understanding and proper use of equipment, pesticides, fertilizers, and other landscaping inputs to have the greatest value with little negative impact on the environment.
Home Food Production – Teaching the benefits of home food production and developing skills and knowledge in growing food, managing community gardens, or contributing to food banks or kitchens.
Gardening with Youth – Increasing young people's awareness and understanding of the value of horticulture and landscaping, using horticulture as a tool to increase responsibility and leadership for youth, and teaching individuals and professionals (i.e., teachers and therapists) how to use horticulture to reach young people.
Value of Landscapes – Developing within communities the knowledge and skill to ensure proper design, installation, and maintenance of sustainable landscapes for economic benefit to residents, state and local government employees and agencies, and professionals in impacted fields, such as tourism and real-estate development.
Health Benefits of Gardening – Teaching the value of the interior and exterior landscape to human health, well-being, and quality of life, transferring knowledge and skills to intended audiences that they might utilize this information for personal health and a healthier workplace and community.
Volunteers benefit from the training, networking with other garden enthusiasts and the opportunity to serve their communities. For more information about the Master Gardener program in your area, contact the University of Georgia Cooperative Extension office nearest you.

Robson Square
Skating at Robson Square is a fun, affordable and healthy activity for families and friends to do together and last winter over 82,000 people visited the plaza for ice skating, concerts and other special events.
There are many family-friendly activities at Robson Square year round. The Robson Square skating rink has been a huge success over the past few years and is a great resource for the community. Last year, more than 56,500 people skated on the rink and more than 5,050 students participated in the school skate program.

About Robson Square
Located in the heart of downtown Vancouver, Robson Square is a provincial landmark that includes the Provincial Law Courts, UBC Robson Square, the Vancouver Art Gallery and the Asia Pacific Centre. The facility is the Province's largest building with 1.2 million square feet extending over three city blocks. The internationally recognized facility was designed by renowned architect Arthur Erickson.
The Province received international kudos during the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games for the use of the space - for the international media centre, as a gathering place for business leaders and for the thousands of people who enjoyed the ice rink, zip line, free entertainment and concerts.
From 2004 to 2011, the Province worked to revitalize and extend the life of Robson Square. The complex had begun showing signs of aging and required exterior renewal. The Robson Square Renewal Project was a $41 million, multi-year project to ensure the vibrancy of the landmark space continues well into the future.
Our vision is to ensure Robson Square remains a vibrant community gathering place for years to come.
In 2009, the Robson Square Domes project received a B.C. Steel Design Award in the architectural category for outstanding steel structure from the Canadian Institute of Steel Construction. The two dark Plexiglas domes in the middle of the square were removed and replaced with larger, more open domes to protect and improve coverage of the ice rink and lower plaza. The clear, oval shaped glass provides better visibility between the plaza and Robson Street.
Outdoor skating at Robson Square was the thing to do during winter 2010-2011 in Vancouver, with over 8,300 visitors per week.

November 26, 2014
Posted Friday, September 13, 2013 --- 2:01 p.m.
BROOKFIELD, Wis. (AP) -- U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan says Republicans in the House are trying to make the case to Democrats in the Senate that it's in their interest to delay further implementation of the health care overhaul law.
Ryan outlined his continued opposition to President Barack Obama's signature health care law during a speech Friday before a business group in Brookfield.
Ryan says the Affordable Care Act can't be delayed or stopped without support from Obama, so the only way to do that is convince other Democrats to slow down the law.
Ryan, the House budget committee chairman, argues that the law will increase health costs for Americans and hurt the economy.
Wisconsin state Rep. Jon Richards attended the lunch and refutes Ryan's claims. He calls Ryan's comments "another recitation of misinformation."

November 27, 2014
This winter has marks the 50th anniversary of the wrestling program at Schuyler high school. Roger Barry came down to Schuyler from Neligh in 1963 to start the Warrior wrestling program.
Roger and his wife Sheryl have watched a lot of Schuyler wrestlers over the past half century. And they're both very proud to have started such a successful program.
Starting with Roger, there have only been 3 coaches in the programs 50-year history. It feels pretty good, since the current coach was one of my wrestlers." His name is Jim Kasik and he took over for Schuyler coach number two, Larry McGowan.
Coach Kasik says, "It's a great honor to come back to coach at your high school and a lot of people you know are here and it's just a rich tradition that I'm glad to be a part of."
And Kasik says that rich tradition gets stronger every year, "It's pretty evident when we have an alumni gathering and you see people come back from not only locally, but from different states and sit down and tell some of the stories that they still remember. It's pretty obvious to see the impact Coach Barry has had on a lot of people hopefully we've been able to keep that tradition going."

Artist Monica Baird will be showing her watercolors at Humboldt Herbals for the month of May, with a reception during Arts Alive! on Saturday from 6 to 9 p.m. Her show, titled "Anahata Unfolding," is a reflection of Baird's "profound love for all the beauty which surrounds us, and is us, in both the material, as well as spiritual world." She says of her work, "I revere the sacred elements of life, and the balance which must be held for all to exist. My work embodies what I feel in my heart, translated through hands into image via the creative process. It is an expression of my gratitude for all that is."
Based out of Humboldt County, Baird uses watercolor paints, ink, colored pencil, acrylic, fabric, dye, clay and brushes to construct vivid imagery of striking contrast. Her work "echoes themes of natural connection, subtle beauty, motherhood and the feminine divine with psychedelic brilliance that reaches off the wall to bring her warmth and inner peace into the hearts of those affected by it," according to show organizers.
Humboldt Herbals is located at 300 Second St., on the corner of Second and D streets in Old Town Eureka. The shop is open Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., and Sundays from noon to 5 p.m.
For more information, call 442-3541 or send a note to email@example.com. More of Baird's work can be seen at www.facebook.com/MonicaBaird.Art.

Mar 9, 2012A solid later days Stones album and sure it's no Exile On Main St. or Sticky Fingers but it doesn't need to be. It is a compilation of great songs that make the Stones sound more like themselves than they have since Tattoo You. "Rough Justice" is a great rock track and it probably the best song they've done in twenty years. "Let Me Down Slow" is a great up-tempo ballad and "Rain Fall Down" is a catchy "Miss You" esque dance tune. "Back Of My Hand" is pure blues and it's great to hear the boys going back to their roots with this one. "Oh, No Not You Again" and "Driving Too Fast" round out the great songs on the albums.… Expand
Aug 2, 2013I dont like this album.I think this is the worst album that rolling stones have ever produced.But a few songs are really good like rough justice and for their age the album is good.So it seems to me this is a bad album but a really good effort for their age
A strong, engaging, cohesive Rolling Stones album that finds everybody in prime form.
16 songs of stalwart Stones riffs that almost compensate for generally embarrassing lyrics. [10 Sep 2005]

Crystal ball stands range from the more basic and simple designs to an array of exquisite and elaborate masterpieces. When selecting a crystal ball stand, make certain that it suits your purpose. If you will be handling your crystal ball much, you may wish to avoid crystal ball stands that grasp the ball, making it difficult to pick up and set down. If your crystal ball is mainly for decoration or will be staying in its crystal ball stand most of the time, a more elaborate and elegant design may suit your needs. Whatever your choice, be sure that your crystal ball stand appeals to you so that you will get many years of enjoyment from it.
Sumerian Pentagram Stand
The pentagrams serve to mark directions in Sumerian texts, and represent the five visible planets. This symbol is used to connect the pentagram symbols on the stand. This stand is made very heavy-duty.
For use with spheres from 40mm to 100mm.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
i am a student at goodlettsville middle school. the teachers try to help you the best they can. its fun and we always have a great time. mostly everyone is friendly here.
My son was subjected to violence and theft on a regular basis and the principal did not do anything about it. What's worse, is they withheld his report card because the lock was stolen off his locker. He also had his ID stolen from his desk. The kids at this school are completely out of control and there are some serious leadership problems amongst the staff for them to allow this type of behavior from the children. I would not recommend this school to anyone.
I am an eight grade student at Goodletsville middle school in the year of 2010-11. This school is trying to keep us proficient in our tcap test. They have divided us students into groups for help on the subject we need help on. Give a chance to this school. I am glad I changed From Nelly's Bend Middle to Goodletsville Middle. Lets go trojans! With our Teachers help, We Will Make!
This is an excellent school. The teachers are dedicated to teaching every student as an individual. My child's experience there was positive.
I am a student at Goodlettsvillle Middle School. I am in Encore and most of the work that teachers give me aren't challenging. This is my first year at GMS and I hate it. If you have kids and they want to come here say, "NO!"
Some of the teachers, aren't really teaching. So, now I'm failing grade and worried that i won't pass
I would not recommend this school at all for anybody.The staff is very nice but the principal is needing people skills and really need to have a better attitude. Dr Register needs to take a real hard look at her!
Its a great school. it can challenge the best of the best with some great teachers. I would recommend sending anyone's child to this school.
Im a student here and I think that this school is ok! My uncle (the vice principal) takes everyone seriously (unless someones trying to make a joke thats not serious). I like that school and i wont leave until im in high school!
It is sad that my daughter feels unsafe, bullied, and unchallenged at this school. There is little structure or organization in daily routines and they are WAY behind grade level in learning. It is clear the principal does not have the best interest in the children.
I am a parent and have no reason to lie. The last three posts must be from the principal (or some other staff) posing as a parent because they are the only positive remarks and they are close in time. The school is a joke and I am telling you get your children out of there! My kids suffered almost an entire year before we were able to relocate. Like I said, I do not work for the school and have no reason to lie. Get your kids a better education! If you read the posts before these three, it pretty much sums up the truth.
I just read one of the parent's comments. It upsets me to think GMS is not a great school. The principal and staff handle all concerns with followup to the parents. It amazes me to see this forum as nothing but positive for this school. If you don't believe me, you need to come volunteer. I volunteer as often as I can. They do a wonderful job. It saves me a lot of money by not placing my child in a private school.
I had three of my children attend Goodlettsville Middle. The school is well maintained. I have seen the principal's car at the school late at night and on weekends. My children received a great education and are doing well in high school and college.
Goodlettsville Middle is my old high school and now my daughter attends the same school that I attended. Many great and talented people have come from this school and I'm glad my child has the same opportunity to do the same.
I am a very patient person but have to agree with the other posters on here also. This is one of those 'if I had known then what I know now' situations and it is making me crazy to see how it is destroying my child! His teacher is terrific and all but when you have a principal who seems to think that discipline can be replaced by a forced handshake and 'apology' there isn't much hope for order, let alone education...
We came to GMS in January and my kids are DREADING going back tomorrow from spring break. I agree with all the reviews before mine about disrespectful students and unstable faculty. We are going to try to make it until May but it is so hard to get my children out of bed each day to go some place so dark and negative.
There are some real gems at this school as far as teachers go, but they can only do so much for the overall experience in this school. Kids are poorly behaved, foul-mouthed and I constantly have to coach my son to not fall prey to the ones who are dishonest. He has already been stolen from twice. There were a lot of lofty statements made about the program and how issues are handled, but I have yet to see anything enforced if I don't go down to the school and press the issue. My kid is miserable... we're looking for some alternatives now but Goodlettsville has no other options. That makes ME miserable!
This is a crazy place. There are too many changes and not enough consistency on discipline or anything else. My son has had his schedule changed about 4 times in the 1st month because they can't figure out what teacher to put where. Crazy kids and crazy staff. We won't be here long.
Our kids go/went to Goodlettsville Elementary school and had successful experiences. When it was time for middle school, we struggled with where to send them. When we were looking into GMS, the principal and other teachers told us there was a 'magnet program' within the school, among other great things. However, my daughter started 5th grade a few weeks ago and has been exposed to fighting, theft, disrespect, and gang problems. We are very distraught and are planning on going to private school or Sumner County. Everything this principal has told us was incredibly untrue. This is the worst school I have ever seen.
Metro schools are in trouble and this school proves it. My 8th grader counted over 10 new faces in faculty and administration. They just can't keep good teachers. Also, every school except this one has a website that works.

TJ Perkins
Date of Birth
September 3, 1984
Place of Birth
Jim Neidhart set a shot put record for California high schools that stood firm for twelve years before someone else broke it.
November 1, 2013
Karl Etherington was undefeated and the British heavyweight champion when he walked into Kansas Star Arena in Mulvane last night. By the time that Bellator 130 had ended, however, his unblemished record was no more. About 90 seconds into the fight, Etherington slipped on a judo throw, so Bobby Lashley was able to capitalize and land enough punches to get the referee to stop the match.
October 25, 2014
Since he has a criminal conviction on his record, there were some speculations as to whether or not Jeff Hardy would be allowed to travel into Japan to work at Bound For Glory 2014. Sources are now stating that the former world heavyweight champion has been cleared to enter the country if he wishes. It is now up to TNA to decide if they want to have him on the show. As of right now, Hardy is not being advertised for the pay per view.
September 14, 2014
TNA has a couple of live events coming up in a few days, and their world heavyweight champion will not be around. Bobby Lashley is going to be missing the one night only pay per view taping and an international television taping because he has to do a fight for Bellator MMA on September 5. His opponent is Josh Burns, who currently has an 8-7 record.
August 28, 2014
Vince McMahon has another big headache to deal with, as his company is being hit with a class action lawsuit. The claim is that WWE purposely misled investors about their ability to secure a much better television deal with the network than the contract that they eventually signed. The promise of a bigger television deal was reportedly the reason why a lot of investors sank money into WWE, causing their stocks to soar to record levels.
July 26, 2014
Since there are plans being discussed for his return to Monday Night Raw, it is a bit interesting to note that Ric Flair has opted to not head to Pittsburgh to get medically cleared by WWE. Some feel that the Nature Boy is still dealing with a blood clot, even though the former world heavyweight champion has gone on record as saying that those issues are done.
May 31, 2014
"No time soon, I left last July and I've been working pretty much non-stop since then between Fozzy tours and doing the new Fozzy record and writing another book and doing my podcasts and a web series. There are a lot of projects in the Chris Jericho pantheon as always. That's not to say that I won't go back but I have no plans as of right now, just because I have so much other stuff going on that I'm enjoying. We'll see, there's no controversy or animosity it's more of a timing thing; the timing has to be right for me and right for the WWE as well. When it is I'm sure we'll both consider me coming back." - Chris Jericho discusses wrestling return
May 9, 2014
WWE has issued a statement touting the fact that a record number of households watched Wrestlemania 30 this year. That total comes from both the WWE Network and traditional pay per view buys. One of the reasons why Vince McMahon wanted to launch the online service was to draw in more people for the pay per view with the lower monthly pricing.
April 16, 2014
While some investors have given up hope on WWE, Vince McMahon and company still manages to break records. Wrestlemania 30 broke the record for the highest grossing entertainment event held at the Superdome. WWE pulled in $10.9 million from the gate. The press statement also touted that the company managed to sell out 75,167 tickets for Wrestlemania.
April 7, 2014
For more than three decades, the record at the Superdome for a wrestling event was set by a show featuring Michael Hayes and Junkyard Dog in the main event. The two of them drew in 28,000 fans, which is a mark that WWE should easily blow away with Wrestlemania 30. As many already know, Hayes works backstage for the company and will be at the pay per view.
April 6, 2014
"David Arquette is his own animal. As much heat as he ever took, for him, all the money he made for that pay per view when he busted me over the head with the guitar and Jeff Jarrett took the world title, the money he made, he gave to Melanie Pillman. When he pinned Eric Bischoff, not me, and I will go on record as saying that was the biggest clusterfuck ever, and it never should have happened, but it did. That being said, that was the booking committee. It was not Arquette, and every fan that has ever roasted him, should dip their own ass in boiling oil because everyone of you that has buried Arquette, if put in the same position, you would have jumped through a hoop of burning oil to do the same shit. That's why when everyone busts his balls on that, I just want to smack someone. I'm like, "really, you, Marko Mark? You would have died for that." - Diamond Dallas Page defending David Arquette for winning a championship
March 24, 2014
When a professional wrestler becomes popular, often times fans will try to get to know as much about the performer as possible. A lot of fans lately have been discovering that Roman Reigns has a public intoxication arrest on his record. However, it happened a long time ago, so WWE does not consider that a big of a deal. His push is not in jeopardy.
March 13, 2014
"For the record, I am not making any personal appearances at any events. Someone is spreading some bullshit suggesting that I am. Save your money. I don't know who started this nonsense, but I have not had a conversation with anyone about any appearances." - Eric Bischoff warning fans
March 6, 2014
It should be noted that Randy Orton has never won an Elimination Chamber match in his career. He has been involved in five of them, and WWE has made it a point to emphasize his horrible record, which means that he has a great chance of walking out victoriously at Elimination Chamber 2014 with the heavyweight championship.
February 19, 2014
"For the record, I had no issues with Virginia commission, in regards to my no show. I never received my airline tickets. Also, for the record, the Virginia promoter did everything he could as well. I'll just have to come make it up to everyone as soon as possible." - Sean Waltman explains no show
February 6, 2014
"For the record, Batista's a sweet guy with an incredible story of perseverance and hard work. He's one of the good guys."
- former WWE star Zach Gowen defending Batista
January 29, 2014
The record for most elimination in the Royal Rumble belongs to Kane, who once took out eleven performers. There are talks that Roman Reigns could be given the distinction of beating that tonight at Royal Rumble 2014. He is expected to be pushed heavily during the match.
January 26, 2014
In a match that will forever be infamous, King Kong Bundy, who was accompanied by Jimmy Hart, squashed SD Jones in the second match of Wrestlemania 1. The match lasted less than a minute, but WWE announced that it was nine seconds, which is a record.
March 31, 1985
Even though there are still many who believe that the company will be folding at the end of the year, TNA has decided to sign Manik to a contract extension. Official terms of the deal have not been released yet, but reports are saying that is a multiple year pact. Management is also said to be toying around with the idea of a character change for the performer, so he is not restricted in the stories.
September 3, 2014
"My contract was started midway thru the year last year but altogether with salary+appearances I was on pace for roughly $75,000-$84,000 for a year period. That's if my schedule is as busy as it was last summer/fall. Also that's only counting TNA. I'd make a lot more if I kept up with other bookings outside but I just don't. I'm also guaranteed a huge chunk of that regardless of if I wrestle or not. So it's pretty ok considering I do what I love. I'm on the low end on the roster too. Most guys do way better than me." - Manik reveals salary in TNA
April 19, 2014
A fan created this video of a WWE 2K14 simulated match between Manik and Tigre Uno, based on their performance at TNA Lockdown 2014.
March 23, 2014
High paced match between Manik and Tigre Uno, who is sort of making his debut with the company again at TNA Lockdown 2014. A flying Sabtretooth Splash enabled Tigre Uno to get the pin fall victory.
March 9, 2014
Prior to becoming a professional wrestler for New Japan and future IWGP Heavyweight Champion, Hiroshi Tanahashi had dreams of becoming a professional baseball player. That was his primary sport in high school.
August 11, 2014
During the early 1990s, Billy Kidman was trained to become a professional wrestler by former WWE star Afa Anoa'i.
July 21, 2014
Yujiro Kushida, who regularly teams up with former TNA star Alex Shelley in New Japan, was mentored by former WWE star Tajiri early on in his career.
July 21, 2014
Prior to becoming known worldwide as a legend in professional wrestling, Bruiser Brody was actually a pretty good football player. He was an all state high school player in Michigan. His talents were so good that he caught the attention of a university in Texas. He parlayed his success in college to an NFL career, doing a brief stint with the Washington Redskins.
May 1, 2014
While he was easily one of the best overall performers during his generation, Tully Blanchard was a bit of a headache backstage. Shortly before he decided to leave WWE, Blanchard ended up failing a drug test because of cocaine, so management had no choice but to fire him. Bobby Heenan had to replace him in the match at Survivor Series 1989.
May 1, 2014
While he does not get featured as much by WWE nowadays, Pedro Morales will forever have a place in company history. The Puerto Rican star was the first guy to have won the WWE title, world tag team championship and the Intercontinental Championship. Morales even held the WWE and tag team championship, which he won with Bob Backlund, at the same time.
April 29, 2014
For a young professional wrestler, being able to work with a big time star could be what helps to spring board your career into the next level. A memorable feud with the legendary Harley Race was how Hercules Hernandez managed to make a name for himself during the territorial days. It was shortly after that feud that he found himself being signed by the NWA.
April 28, 2014
Prior to becoming a star in professional wrestling, Scott Norton was a star in the arm wrestling world. The former WCW star won at least thirty championships, including four national titles. He also traveled overseas for competition, including a life changing one in Japan. Norton also had enough recognition to be cast in Over the Top, a Sylvester Stallone movie about arm wrestling.
April 28, 2014
While he will forever associated with the famous wrestling last name, Ole Anderson is actually not an Anderson at all. His real name is Alan Rogowski. He simply adopted the Ole Anderson name to connect with the audience who were already familiar with Gene Anderson, his story line brother. Another interesting point of interest is that Ole Anderson is a play on the word oleander, a poisonous plant.
April 28, 2014
Back in 2000, the world of professional wrestling was saddened by the death of Masakazu Fukuda. While working a tournament match, Fukuda was hit by a flying elbow drop from Katsuyori Shibata. The blow proved to be fatal, as Fukuda had to be taken to the hospital, where he died a couple of days later. New Japan finished the tournament and dedicated the event in his honor.
April 28, 2014
Prior to becoming a star in WCW, Sid Vicious managed to pull off a pretty amazing feat while working for New Japan. Even though he was an unknown, Vicious was able to convince the promoters in Japan to give him a shot at the legendary Tatsumi Fujinami and the IWGP Heavyweight Championship. He lost, of course, but was able to gain some recognition in the late 1980s by being in the match.
April 27, 2014
For as long as she has been on television, Stephanie McMahon has been a topic of interest for professional wrestling fans. Many WWE fans are quite enamored with her, so it comes as no surprise that her bra size is routinely discussed. During an interview once, Stephanie revealed that she received breast implants and now has a bra size of D cup.
April 24, 2014
Since she has been around WWE for a very long time, wrestling fans have been wondering how old Stephanie McMahon is. She was born on September 24, 1976, which makes her 37 right now. Due to her age and the fact that the kids are getting a little older, Stephanie recently decided to scale back on her responsibilities within WWE. She is no longer in charge of the creative department.
April 22, 2014
The boring gimmick that Lance Storm received while working in WWE was actually a little jab at internet wrestling fans. Many viewed him as a guy that was just too boring to be a star. In actuality, though, Storm has a pretty good personality and a sense of humor backstage. WWE went with the gimmick in order to try to something to see if it would give him momentum.
April 13, 2014
Back when he was a teenager in Mississippi, Kamala was a bit of a thief. He became known in town as a burglar who came from a poor family. The local police did not want to arrest him, so they heavily suggested that he leave town to avoid any further complications. The future WWE star opted to flee to the state of Florida, where he made money by picking fruit.
April 11, 2014
In a little known fact in professional wrestling, Bobby Heenan was originally scheduled to manage Jesse Ventura. Vince McMahon had lured him away from the AWA for that particular role. However, Ventura had blood clots in his lungs, which was due to his stint in the Vietnam War, and was forced to retire as an in ring performer. WWE moved Heenan on to other wrestlers.
April 10, 2014
In one of the more interesting connections in professional wrestling, when Wahoo McDaniel was a teenager in Texas, he was coached in baseball by George Bush, who would go on to become the 41st President of the United States.
April 9, 2014
Even though the truth has been out there for several years now, a lot of wrestling fans are still under the belief that Ole Anderson and Arn Anderson are brothers in real life. They're not. The relationship was created for their on screen characters to help Arn connect with the audience quicker because Ole was already established in the territory.
April 4, 2014
Back during the 1980s, one of the most talked about segment in professional wrestling was when Uncle Elmer got married on national television. It was an actual wedding, as the performer was really wanting to marry his longtime girlfriend. When he approached Vince McMahon about it, the promoter loved the idea and decided to make it a draw for WWE.
April 4, 2014
One of the biggest mysteries in professional wrestling involves Dennis Condrey and his decision to walk away from the Midnight Express. When asked about the situation, Bobby Eaton said that his former tag team partner basically left without saying a word to him for two years. Condrey reportedly did not inform Jim Cornette or the NWA, either.

Outside the Times Free Press on Thursday, a portion of East 11th Street was closed. Orange cones. Signs. Repair work.
It seemed fitting. As local leader after leader after leader made their way that afternoon to the second-floor newsroom to shake hands with a man who has come to symbolize Chattanooga journalism, it seemed appropriate that the road was closed.
We ought to close some roads. We ought to shut down some part of the city. How else do you mark the end of an era?
This week, the city ought to pause — and reflect — like reading the last line at the end of a very long, remarkable book.
"Lee has been one of those names," said Hamilton County Sheriff Jim Hammond. "You say, 'Lee' and everyone says, 'Anderson."'
On April 18, 1942, 25 years before the first Super Bowl and only a few months after Pearl Harbor, Lee Anderson went to work at the Chattanooga News Free Press.
This Wednesday, 70 years to the day, he'll retire.
"I gave him a challenge coin," Hammond said. "We do it in law enforcement when an officer has gone beyond the call of duty. When someone is a cut above."
Cut above doesn't, well, cut it. Anderson is miles above. Thursday's guest list for his retirement party represented leaders from every aspect of our region: social, political, religious, economic.
And everyone spoke about two things: his contribution to journalism.
And his character.
"Lee Anderson is a giant in the world of journalism," said U.S. Rep. Chuck Fleischmann. "Over the years, he has exemplified the greatest attributes of journalism. In addition, his service to this city as a civic leader and philanthropist is rarely matched."
Hamilton County Mayor Jim Coppinger said Anderson has influenced his life for decades.
"I started reading his work when I was a teenager," he said. "The Free Press and Times Free Press are synonymous with Lee Anderson."
Anderson, along with Tom Edd Wilson, are believed to be the only two Distinguished Eagle Scouts in the Chattanooga area.
"He has a way of being kind to people. He's not a mean writer," said Wilson, chief executive of the Chattanooga Area Chamber of Commerce. "He gets to the heart of the matter, and has the personal respect of both parties and leaders."
After a video biography of Anderson's life played on big screens across the newsroom, several colleagues and local leaders approached the podium, telling stories, making jokes and paying vast compliments to Anderson, seated on the front row.
"The mayor asked me to give you this key to the city," said Councilman Jack Benson. "It will get you in every place but the Strut."
Earlier in the day, I spoke with Dr. Andrew Exum, Anderson's nephew.
"The irony here is that the newspaper was a family enterprise, and Lee was in the family by marriage," he said. "Yet more than anybody else in the family, he was a true newspaper man. Lee was a newspaper man in his bones.
"He is the quintessential newspaper man."
For the last 32 years, Linda Weaver has been Anderson's secretary.
"From the lowest man on the totem pole to the president of the United States, he treated everybody the same," she said.
Weaver remembers Anderson rarely firing any employee, and giving folks chances when others probably wouldn't have. She remembers him as a constant, someone who came to work each and every day, handing out kindness and respect to everyone he encountered.
"He is the finest person I've ever met," she said.
There is no place on earth like a newsroom. And for the last seven decades, Lee Anderson has been an anchor within Chattanooga newsrooms. Someone folks orbit around. His desk, with its massive Bible on the front, seemed like ballast.
"Even when the family sold the Free Press, it would have been unthinkable Lee would not have been there," Exum said.
Still is.
Always will be.

David Cook is the award-winning city columnist for the Times Free Press, working in the same building where he began his post-college career as a sportswriter for the Chattanooga Free Press. Cook, who graduated from Red Bank High, holds a master's degree in Peace and Justice Studies from Prescott College and an English degree from the University of Tennessee at Knoxville. For 12 years, he was a teacher at the middle, high school and university ...
Well, I thought I was reading about Jesus Christ.. In any event, Anderson might be the "nicest" guy around but this country has been basically ruined by "nice guys."
The problem I have with Anderson is that he was never a true conservative. Oh yeah, when it was a national or state issue he was a Johnny on the spot. He made all the right noises that would make you think that he was on the right but close to home his true colors came out.
Time after time Anderson supported the power structure on local issues or political races.I know, I know, the people in the power structure deny that it exists but we all know who and what they are.
In political races he always supported who his buddies wanted. I have three egregious examples. The first was the school board race between staunch conservative Rhonda Thurman and a liberal ex-teacher Barbara Levi. Although Anderson had known Rhonda for years and was her "friend," he supported the liberal democrat over anyway. With friends like Anderson who needs enemies.
Another example was Tim Price running against Mr. Rubber Stamp himself, Everett Fairchild. Again, conservative businessman versus liberal ex-principal.... Anderson supported the power structure liberal candidate again.
The third example is the most bizarre. It was a school board race between Gregg Juster, a staunch conservative and vice president of the Tea Party versus Debra Matthews. As you recall, Debra Matthews was the black liberal who never met a tax increase she didn't like. She supported every liberal cause known to man or beast. Anderson recommended her over a multiple business owner with impeccable conservative creditials. DEBRA MATTHEWS, give me a break.
These are only a few examples. He also supported several local tax increases because the "powers that be" wanted them.
The truth about Anderson is that he was another power structure propagandist whose true political nature was to support the candidates and issues that his buddies in the liked and whoever the power structure wanted. He was a terrible writer whose tortured grammar was like a type of journalistic waterboarding. If he hadn't married the bosses daughter he would have probably retired from the circulation department.
Just think how much different local government might look if this guy had supported local conservatives. As far as I am concerned just because he is old and been at the TFP a while is no reason to canonize him.
I have been around long enough to see what this guy really is.
And who'll replace him? He leaves some awfully big shoes to fill.
eblev...If he didn't pose as a conservative it really wouldn't matter. It is easy to take the conservative line when it really doesn't matter. The problem is that when he got the chance to support a conservative when his opinion might help get them elected he was out to lunch. How is the world do you support Debra Matthews and George Bush at the same time. He not only didn't support these candidates..he supported the most liberal he could find. That is strange. Conservatism starts at home and he failed the test miserably.
Also smart ass, this is not a formal writing exercise. Most of the time it is written in hast. If you used the same rules for Anderson he would have never been allowed on the editorial page. His writing sucked.
Also, he supported local tax increase while deriding democrats for proposing tax increases nationally. This was hypocritical. He wanted to please his high society buddies like the PEF and Ruth Holmberg.

Overall, the sound is smooth, laid-back..." --Loquah
