The turkey is an intelligent and cagey creature. In the fall with a finely tuned sense of danger, they slip through the early morning mist into the woods and prairies searching for food.
Fossil remains dates back to the Mocene deposits of Colorado, and scientists think they may have shared the same time and space with the vegetarian Bronthotherium dinosaurs over 25 million years ago.
Turkeys were found at the beginning of the sixteenth century in Mexico, where Native Americans had long domesticated them. Fowls were part of the prizes shipped back to Spain in 1519, and turkeys spread through trade to the rest of Europe.
Columbus may have been one of the few European to taste turkeys during his fourth voyage to the New World in 1502. But long before the discovery of America, natives of Central America and our present day states of Arizona and New Mexico had domesticated flocks in captivity.
The Pilgrims and Indians probably served them often as they were plentiful in the beginning. Pioneers are said to use the wild turkey breast as a substitute for bread. Women believed the fat on the back was better for baking then butter, and used the eggs for making dumplings.
A tom or gobbler turkey has been estimated to be 36 to 48 inches tall, weigh 16 to 20 pounds with a longer neck and legs than the domestic Thanksgiving bird.
The male, of course, sports a beard, a thick tuft of specialized hair-like feathers that sprouts from the middle of the chest and may droop 8 or 9 inches. It will grow throughout a gobbler's life span (six to nine years) until the oldest patriarchs are able to drag it on the ground when feeding.
Turkey are omnivorous and eat insects such as grasshoppers, berries, fruit, tubers, seeds and some small vertebrates like frogs, lizards and snakes. When autumn approaches, they dig and scratch for food through fallen leaves leaving raked swatches on the ground.
Whatever a turkey swallows goes into its gizzard, the muscular portion of the stomach that crushes food equal to a 500 pound vise pressure to collapse the contents. They dine well on acorns and hickory nuts here, while in Europe turkeys forage on English walnuts which goes for fattening these bird.
There are six wild varieties of turkey in different parts of the United States, differing primarily in size with slight color variations.
Laying about a dozen yellow-white eggs with brownish spotting and living up to eight years of age, these birds are very capable of making a comeback when proper conservation practices are followed. Although there were few at first, they are making a comeback in the last 40 years.
Besides having found their way into our stomachs, turkeys have also found their way into our vocabulary as in "talk turkey," plays that are "turkeys," "Turkey in the Straw," dancing the turkey trot, attending a turkey shoot, and the color that is referred as turkey red. And of course, there is always the appellation "turkey" used to describe a foolish individual. This last use of the term is probably based upon the behavior of wild gobblers who have been known to attack everything from people to trucks during breeding season.
There are also tales of turkeys drowning because of an inclination not to seek shelter from the rain.
Today we produce 200 million domestic turkeys a year in the United States. If your bird seems overpriced when buying one for the Thanksgiving table, note that one reference mentions $2,000 paid for a 71-pound turkey named "Mr. Chuckle IV" at an auction in 1977.
In 1930, Federal Aid began to restore these wild birds to their earlier habitat, and by 1960, the turkey population leap-frogged to an estimated 4 million turkeys in 49 states, including Hawaii, but none in Alaska. They are now valued for hunting or just for pleasure, and if you are strolling near a woods or out on the prairie, you may hear turkeys talking turkey.

Kathleen Norris
- For the contemporary poet/essayist of the same name (b. 1947), see Kathleen Norris (poet)
Kathleen Thompson Norris (July 16, 1880 – January 18, 1966) was a popular American novelist and newspaper columnist. She was one of the most widely read and highest paid women writers in the United States for nearly fifty years, from 1911 to 1959. Her stories appeared in the Atlantic, The American Magazine, McClure's, Everybody's, Ladies' Home Journal and Woman's Home Companion, and she wrote 93 novels, many of which were best sellers. She used her fiction to promote values including the sanctity of marriage, the nobility of motherhood, and the importance of service to others.[1]
Life and career[edit]
Norris was born and died in San Francisco, California. When she was 19 both her parents died, and as the oldest sibling she became effectively the head of a large family. She had to become a breadwinner, and worked in a department store followed by an accounting office and then the Mechanic's Institute Library. She began writing short stories, and in 1905 enrolled in a creative writing program at the University of California, Berkeley. In September 1906 the San Francisco Call, which had published a few of her stories, hired her to write a society column. In the course of that work she met Charles Gilman Norris (whose late older brother was the famous novelist Frank Norris), and they soon fell in love. He moved to New York to be art editor of The American Magazine. After eight months of daily correspondence and some improvements in her family's financial situation, she joined him there and they were married in April 1909.
She resumed writing short stories, which began to appear in newspapers and then magazines starting in 1910. Charles took on a lifelong role as Kathleen's literary agent, and also took care of many household management roles as she became increasingly successful as a writer. Shortly after becoming a new mother, she wrote her first novel, Mother. It started as a short story in The American Magazine in 1911. A publisher asked her to expand it into a novelette, which became a national sensation and earned the praise of Theodore Roosevelt for its celebration of large families. A devout Catholic, she wrote the book in part as a commentary against birth control, which was rapidly influencing women's attitudes about motherhood. Her 1914 novel Saturday's Child received a positive, lengthy review from William Dean Howells, who remarked on her sensitivity to class issues.
Norris became involved in various social causes, including women's suffrage, Prohibition, pacifism, and organizations to benefit children and the poor.
Many of her novels were made into films, including My Best Girl (1927), The Callahans and the Murphys (1927), Passion Flower (1930), and Change of Heart (1934, based on the novel Manhattan Love Song).
In 1919 the family moved to a ranch in the Santa Cruz Mountains near Saratoga, California, adjacent to the Villa Montalvo estate of James Duval Phelan. They later built a house in Palo Alto and spent summers at the ranch. Kathleen's sister Teresa, who had married William Rose Benét and borne three children, died in 1919. Kathleen fought for and eventually obtained guardianship of the two nieces and a nephew, Rosemary, Kathleen Anne and James Benét.
Her granddaughter Kathleen Norris (San Francisco 1 Mar 1935-San Francisco 8 Dec 1967) was the second wife of Prince Andrew Romanov (b. London 21 Jan 1923).

Mike Tadych
New clients, opposing counsel and good portions of the free world regularly have difficulty with Mike Tadych's surname. Shortly after meeting "Mr. Taditch" or "Mr. Tascisch," however, they quickly come to know this multi-talented lawyer as "Mr. TODDY" — or, in view of his personable nature — simply as "Mike."
A native of Berea, Ohio, Mike's ease in dealing with people of varied backgrounds and eclectic work history enables him to handle a wide array of legal problems. Since beginning law practice in 1997, Mike has worked on matters ranging from multifamily construction project disputes and trademark litigation to the representation of a national day-care operator before its state licensing agency and negotiation of the contract for a national public radio personality. As an example of his versatility Mike, who grew up knowing nothing about farming, used his background in information technology and presentation development to create computerized damages analyses that led to the successful resolution of more than 35 crop insurance lawsuits filed by North Carolina tobacco farmers in the aftermath of Hurricane Fran. This imaginative work has led to Mike's handling of crop insurance claims for many other farmers.
In addition to his litigation, First Amendment and professional licensing work, Mike enjoys representing the interests of creative individuals including authors, singers, journalists and artists. He is general counsel to the Watercolor Society of North Carolina and is a frequent speaker on areas of interest to creative individuals regarding business structure, intellectual property and transference of ownership.
A graduate of Indiana University, where he earned a degree in telecommunications, Mike has experience in television production, aerial video photography, graphics design, desktop publishing, editing corporate newsletters and public relations. At Case Western University's law school, Mike served as coordinator of the school's national moot court team. Mike's professional activities including a six-year stint as the editor of The Wake Bar Flyer, the newsletter of the award-winning Wake County Bar Association. Mike is currently on the Board of Directors for the Wake County Bar Association and Chairman of its Communications Committee. Mike is also on the Board of the Downtown Raleigh Rotary Club – North Carolina's oldest civic club.
Mike and his wife Denise have three children. He plays water polo regularly, runs with his dog Molly a few times a week and gets beaten by his wife in tennis most times they play.

If it was demanded by the public, Mickey meet and greet would be popular. If it was a danger, no way would they have meet and greets in the World Showcase.
After the first week or two of the Official Meet and Greet for Mickey, it has been a real dud. Fastpass the vast majority of the time unnecessary. The New Mickey Meet and Greet actually has LESS traffic than SWSA does. I agree Disney is trying to pretend that Meet N Greet direction is attraction-like, however from attendance, it is a "FAIL" much like their other recent decisions. So what does Disney do, repeat the same mistake in the same park. The New Disney.
At least when they took out Mr. Toad they replaced it, in the same space with an attraction, While many miss Mr. Toad, Pooh is very popular. But that was The Old Disney.
Some people are like Slinkies.
They aren't really good for anything,
but they still bring a smile to my face when I push them down a flight of stairs.
Friends are Gods way of apologizing to us for our families.

And I never said I WANTED a meet and greet either. But it was always planned that they would have one as part of it - it just wasn't originally planned to replace an existing attraction.
Not really sure why you think you now need to treat me like a newb.

Completely ridiculous to have a meet and greet replace a classic attraction. There are plenty of meet and greets around already
Where Magic Lives
"its a glorious three hour finale I call A Tribute to all Nations but Mostly AMERICA!"
"Now approaching Tomorrowland's Space Mountain"
By the way, why can't we keep conversations civil around here any more?
I have to agree with the posts above re: the reusing the space for the meet and greet. See to me... when I first heard that it may be closing (months and months ago) as part of the Fantasyland changes I figured it was because they needed the space. Like maybe they'd be demo'ing that area or something for the wall or whatever. Finding out it's being demo'd but then the space will be used for a meet and greet just seemed backwards to me. If you don't *have* to demo it... why do it?
I am thinking the thought process was that there was going to be a new ride and area dedicated to Snow White and having the attraction on the opposite end, near Cinderella's castle, was a break in the new story they are trying to introduce. I get it... it just seems like the reason is backwards... like maybe they could've instead planned the expansion to tie the existing Snow White themed spot into the new.
I'd probably understand it more if it didn't have some of the longest lines every time we go, even during off-peak, too. The penchant for removing truly popular attractions is one I'll never understand. When it's due to a change in sponsor or something then ok maybe it makes a little more sense, but when you do it, really just to do it... I dunno I lose the sense in there.
Sometimes all you need is a reminder that out there lies a better place... a better world... a Walt Disney World.Visited In: 1983, 1988, 1989 x2, 1991, 1992, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006 (passholder), 2007 (x2 x3), 2008, 2009 (x2), 2010, 2011 (x2)

Eh, I was much more upset when Mr Toads Wild Ride shut down.
Ayhab the Arab
It's amazing to think that this all started with one little mouse.
I just don't get the love for Toad. I rode it once and from what I remember it was mostly cut outs on motors on what should be best enjoyed while on a LSD trip. I'd trade Toad and SWSA right now straight up for the return of 20K.
Snow White is a beautiful attraction and it is sad to see it go. I am though really looking forward to the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train coaster.

I just rode snow white for the last time yesterday I am annoyed by the fact that they are getting rid if a classic for yet another meet and greet, especially with all the meet and greets they have put in recently on Main St. And other locations. Not to mention the rupenzel meet and greet going in where the fantasyland skyway used to be. It's too much, I would have been a little happier with a newer attraction there, but enough with the meet and greets already!!

Location, location, location...
Think about it- a family with children could now spend an entire day just in that area of the park. The little ones would never want to leave in the first place and, now with the meet and greet station there, why would they need to? I'll be missing SWSA like the rest of you, but it really does make sense to have a character station right in the Time's Square of Disney Parks.
Also, this seems like another step towards supply outweighing demand with character photo ops. When it was randomized and you never knew who you might run into, there was a certain mystery or "luck" to finding Mickey in the park. Now, with characters stationed all over the place, maybe the opportunities are becoming too abundant and the pictures are losing that magical feel? That might be why interest is fading/ lines are shrinking.
Also, this is my first thread post. Hi!
I'm right there with ya. I hope it is a good new coaster. Still not happy Disney chose to delete an attraction for the birth of 2 more.
DopeyDancer: I could not have said it better.
Not Our Dino: Welcome!
I wholeheartedly agree with the over saturation. And it is difficult enough to have small children queued up up for attractions, now formal queues for a 10 second photo op. I am getting a kick out of how many are by-passing Mickey and the Princesses already where they are. Sometimes it takes a while before Disney to catch on to Guests trends.
I on the other hand do not agree about families staying in Fantasyland and not wanting to leave. My kids are/were 5 years apart, my DS being 5 years older than DD. DS 1st trip was at 14 months. He loved the Pirates and the Haunted Mansion along with the Jungle Cruise. The Bears made him laugh and he could have ride the train over and over. We went every year and he would have hated being stuck in Fantasyland and/expansion. I know he would not have tolerated standing in a queue to visit with the Princesses. He barely tolerated Small World, the Dolly place. He like Toad wasn't,and then he was a Turtle guy by 4. I think that is part of the problem with Fantasyland, some of these young guys are going to object to so much being based on Princess movies. They could have expanded Fantasy anyway they wanted, it didn't have to be so Princessie. There is more to Fantasy than Princesses. Oddly enough my DD 5 years younger was never much into Princesses either unless she con'd her Daddy into playing the board game Pretty Pretty Princess.

but they still bring a smile to my face when I push them down a flight of stairs.

Does anyone know what's going on in the SWSA space right now? Have they started work, or is it just sitting there? I was thinking they were going to keep it open until the Mine Train was ready to open (which is still a couple of years off).
It would be cool if they could incorporate a few of the props from SWSA in to the Mine Train to pay homage to the original.
WDW:: March 1996 (Buena Vista Palace DTD) | March 2005 (Hilton DTD) | March 2007 (Hilton DTD) | March 2009 (Hilton DTD) | August 2011 (Hilton DTD) | March 2012 (Royal Plaza DTD) | August 10th-17th 2013
WDW Imagineers usually incorporate elements of the original ride in the replacement ones. I'm pretty certain that they'll do that here as well.
And I agree with Gabe, Disney can be behind the times when it comes to Guest trends and sometimes they are in front of the curve. I think though, they are missing the boat on this one.
And welcome aboard, Not Our Dino. Don't be too afraid of the locals around here. They bark and yip a lot, but rarely bite...hard.
On May 31st I thought, OMG somebody hit me in the head with the "stupid stick."
I generally pride myself in being able to put the pieces of a puzzle together and I totally missed it on this one, why would they close this attraction during the start of the summer season and why so much sooner than originally anticipated. Duh. Snow White and Huntsmen opened on June 1st. D'oh. A Universal Picture. They closed just in time not to be fueling the new picture for the competition. Further, they left Snow White out of the naming of the new coaster. Oy again. It did strike me as odd that it was "just" the Dwarf coaster, at least for now, anything could change later, but for now, Snow White at the Magic Kingdom just seems to be on the outs with the Fantasyland expansion.

Because I am a certified half-assed gardener, I am spending this lovely Saturday early afternoon taking pictures and writing about my garden rather than working on it. That said, I have bought some plants and put some in containers (pepper, eggplant) and some in my L-shaped garden, which stands for "love" or "loser," I'm not sure which. Here is my L-garden from two angles: long leg and short leg (of the L). After seeing where we are today, in a general sort of way, I'll show you some specifics, and when I finish I'll go out and begin addressing some of the problems.
First, the EL:
Now for what to do. It may be apparent that about 15 basil plants (with returning rosemary and mint and some sage interspersed) have been planted. Oh-oh, brown spots! From what I can tell, these are from too much moisture. We have had a fair amount of rain, but their poor bound roots looked dry and so I watered them as well, when I put them….Everyone knows you're supposed to do that.
What I shall do is cut or pinch off all the affected leaves and eat them (tonight) and see if that helps. At any rate, it will help me and whoever is lucky enough to dine with me. May the kale grow heartily without the spots, hereafter.
Now the next exhibit are my two returning vegetables that I've let bolt and now must let them finish. First is the kale, which has lovely seed pods, which I did not expect. Second is the beautiful fennel, which has come back after bolting last fall, at which time I harvested all the seeds (and ate them or gave them away).
Finally, there's this messy corner, where the rain barrel I made is disconnected and therefore not collecting rain and where leaves have tumbled and crab grass invaded. It is my hope that by Memorial Day, this will look very different.
So here it is after cleaning–nice and mulched and much more inviting, both to look at and to grow things:

The head of Sudan for example has warrants for his arrest from the International Court of Criminal Justice. He is a head of state. So I do not think that the pope would be protected by that, nor do I think he should."
In particular there is a very egregious case of sexual abuse where a priest, Father Murphy, I guess actually he has admitted to this, sexually abused over 200 deaf boys and that there has been a lawsuit initiated there which names former Cardinal Ratzinger as a party and Cardinal Ratzinger was the person in charge of the..., I guess, the Vatican's special department that looked after keeping, sort of, religious order within the church and also dealt with issues like the sexual abuse and all this. He hold that position for 20 years.
Mind you within the confines in the Vatican, it is a sovereign state, it will be protected. The legal jurisdiction of the Vatican would be maintained, it would be a very serious breach of the diplomatic protocol for police to go in and arrest the pope or anyone on the territory of another country.

With so many probes heading for Mars and other planets, the question of whether they could bring back new diseases has become important. SARS, Mad Cow Disease and HIV are only three of the diseases that have crossed the species barrier, so infectious pathogens from Martian rock samples probably could too.
Leslie Mullen writes in Astrobiology Magazine that the International Committee Against Martian Sample Return is worried about this. Not all pathogens cross the species barrier?our dogs and cats get diseases that don't affect us. Chicken and sheep farmers are untouched by diseases that wipe out their flocks and herds. A Martian microbe could enter the human body, but be harmless because it's incompatible with human physiology.
"After living in the dirt of Mars, a pathogen could see our bodies as a comparable host; they could treat us 'like dirt,'" says NASA?s John Rummel. "?It could be that even if the microbes lived inside us, they wouldn't do anything, it would just be this lump living inside you." This is the most likely scenario, since life on Mars would have evolved without humans present. Pathogens are most likely to cross species barriers when both species evolved at the same time.
One theory is that life was brought to Earth by meteorites coming from Mars, suggesting that life on Mars might be closely related to life on Earth. However, life forms on both planets would have evolved extensively since then, meaning that pathogens from one planet might no longer be able to infect living things on the other planet. However, if we are related to Mars life, it could also mean we're susceptible to Mars diseases.

LONDON - When I checked into the affordable Hoxton Hotel in London's trendy East End Saturday, it was the first hotel here that didn't force me to play the dreaded "Find the hair dryer" game.
It's a game I truly hate playing since it wastes precious minutes that I simply do not have when on the road.
The Hoxton - which the owners of London's ubiquitous Pret a Manger sandwich shop chain opened in 2006 - cleverly deals with the no-space-for-hair-dryer issue by building it into a custom, hotel-necessities drawer.
The drawer is located in the guest room's can't-miss desk, which also contains the ever-so-important power outlets, TV and coffee pot. But to ensure it gets a look, housekeepers leave the drawer open in not-yet-occupied rooms so guests are forced to see the contents before closing it. Note: All but three of the hotel's rooms are identical, so this is most likely what you'll see if you stay here.
In my experience, ultra-hip boutique hotels do the best job of hiding the hair dryer to keep up their minimalist design and sometimes due to a more practical reason: No space, especially in Manhattan. The chains - whether Marriott, Hilton or others - don't always do any better.
My experience at the InterContinental at Park Lane earlier this week was flawless - except for the three or four minutes wasted searching for the hair dryer on my first day. The bathroom was large, but I couldn't find it.
Finally, I gave up and dialed the front desk for help - but the moment a staffer asked me how she could help, I opened the wardrobe in my bedroom and spotted the hair dryer on a high shelf neatly wrapped in a generic tan bag. (Many other hotels hide hair dryers in the wardrobe as well when there's enough covered storage space in the bathroom. The wrapping doesn't help.)
As a female traveler, I wish more hotels would take action, whether it's creating a drawer like the Hoxton's or finding another solution. My suggestions:
Readers: How many minutes have you spent trying to find the hair dryer in your hotel room? Have you ever given up and left with wet hair? In your comments, please elaborate and include hotel name and location.

See baby crawl, see baby giggle. See baby twerk?
We love this video of Baby Georgia getting her groove on to Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines." What seems like your standard funny baby dance reaches a whole new level when Georgia hits the floor and starts twerking! So confident -- it's like she practically invented the dance herself. Gotta love how mom can't stop laughing the whole time.

JESSE EISENBERG that lesbian in Zombieland
JESSE EISENBERG that lesbian in Zombieland
The rumors can end, it's not Bryan Cranston. Instead Jesse Eisenberg from The Social Network and Zombieland is joining Zack Snyder's cast as Superman arch-villain Lex Luthor. He seems a little young, small and not bald to play the part, but then again I never thought Gene Hackman could do it either.
Rounding out the casting news, veteran actor, Jeremy Irons (from everything ever made) has been cast as Bruce Wayne's stalwart butler, Alfred. This is much less shocking and pretty alright in my book.
What do you think? Good Choices?
Damn Facebook Stalkers -Jesse Eisenberg
I love you so much that I would do anything for you. So then you'll watch the "Twilight" marathon with me? I'd rather jump off this bridge. -Ellen Page, Jesse Eisenberg

WILMINGTON, Del. - State police believe the same man robbed two 7-Eleven stores within a mile-and-a-half of one another on Kirkwood Highway near Wilmington.
The first robbery occurred around 4:40 Sunday morning, and the second occurred about an hour later.
In the first robbery, police say the clerk was outside the store when the assailant forced him back inside and demanded money from the cash register. The robber fled on foot with some cash.
In the second incident, police say the man walked into the store and vaulted over the sales counter, where he demanded that the clerk give him money. The clerk fled the store, but the robber forced him back inside. He then fled on foot with cash.
Neither of the clerks was injured.

The Tata Indigo eCS laid the groundwork for the sub-four metre sedan segment in India. It was one of the first models in this segment, which is now populated by cars like the Maruti Suzuki Swift Dzire, Honda Amaze and the Mahindra Verito.
Tata's answer to the new entrants in the entry-level segment is the 2013 Indigo eCS with a few cosmetic and features upgrades to both the exteriors and interiors. This facelifted Indigo eCS is now available with three engine options across eight variants.
A look at the present day Indigo eCS clearly reveals that very little has changed compared to the old Indigo CS. The front bumper gets few tweaks, there is a new chrome grille and the headlamps have been blackened to add a bit of aggression. Reshaped fog lamp inserts also get a dash of chrome and 14-inch alloy-wheels are now standard on the higher variants.
The main changes are inside the car; the standard T-shaped steering wheel has been replaced with a four-spoke one, the centre console, fabric seats and door panel inserts have been given a lighter beige shade. The high-end variants get additional features like body-coloured ORVMs with turn indicators, rub rails with chrome inserts, electrically adjustable ORVMs, leather-wrapped gear shift knob and a music system with bluetooth.
The Indigo eCS is available with two different engines - one petrol and one diesel. The 1.4-litre TDI turbo diesel engine gives an output of 70bhp at 4,000rpm and 135Nm of torque at 2,500rpm and is available in the BSIII and BSIV compliant guise. The petrol mill is smaller due to small car regulations and has a displacement of 1.2-litres and delivers 65bhp at 5,000rpm and 100Nm of torque at 2,700rpm.
Tata claims that the suspension of the 2013 eCS has been reworked to offer better ride and the gearbox has been fine-tuned for smoother shifts. The entry-level sedan comes with a manufacturer warranty of two years or 75,000 kms.
Tata cars are among the most spacious cars in their respective segments and the cabin of the eCS is no different. There is ample space for three passengers on the rear bench and that really works in the favour of the sedan.
The Indian auto major is known for making fuel-efficient cars at low prices. When compared to other cars in its segment, the Indigo eCS is lot more affordable, has respectable fuel efficiency numbers and also gets loads of features. Tata continues to use the standard nomenclature - the petrol GLX is the base variant and the diesel VX is the top-end version.

It's fair to say that Ringbelles HQ has had a bit of a dark cloud of depression hanging over it recently, as Lee and I have often found ourselves discussing how terrible it is that a number of our favourite wrestlers are out – in some cases, possibly permanently – with injuries. Daizee Haze has already hung up her tights, LuFisto & Mercedes Martinez have been struggling and resting up with serious injuries (back and concussion respectively – the latter of which has taken Martinez out of WSU's event next weekend in New Jersey) and more serious still, Serena Deeb has been told she should no longer wrestle due to a severe concussion while Madison Eagles admits her knee injury could be career threatening. It's amazing how much these women give of themselves to the service of pro-wrestling – often in front of small (albeit appreciative) crowds. Call it passion, or call it what you will, they continue to push themselves hard (and probably harder than they should) in order to entertain – and as we're seeing quite clearly, with that comes a price. Going into the upcoming "Spring Season" of shows from the major North American indy wrestling companies, it's hard to imagine a SHIMMER taping without Madison Eagles; or what about Serena Deeb, who is still scheduled to debut for NCW Femmes Fatales on March 10th in Montreal? What if Mercedes Martinez can't completely shake her concussion issues by March? Main events in SHIMMER, Femmes Fatales and crucially WSU may all have to be re-written. In my head, it all felt very "glass half empty".
Happily though, a chat with a friend in the business a little while ago persuaded me to turn the frown upside down. "Well," she said (when contemplating the worst case scenario that Deeb, Eagles and others may be facing the end of their careers) "That gives plenty of opportunity for other girls to move up and take those spots". I stopped and thought for a moment, and answered in the affirmative. I wasn't yet 100% convinced, but the more I thought about it, the more I figured that there was a definite ring of truth to that statement. Don't get me wrong, I am definitely *not* ready to contemplate life without Eagles and Deeb, and I'd love nothing better than to have them back – but if they don't return (or even just miss an extended length of time as they overcome their issues), it's worth considering who actually is likely to benefit, and why we can actually look forward to 2012 as a year of opportunity as much as anything else.
Nicole Matthews has been on the main event cusp in SHIMMER for a while – and the fact that she attacked new Champion Cheerleader Melissa moments after her title win on Vol 44 suggests that she was destined to join that top level in 2012 anyway – but what about her on and off rival for much of 2010/11, Jessie McKay? I saw a big change in Jessie over the last year or so, moving from cute midcarder to someone with the potential to be much more. I've privately referred to her amongst my circle of friends as "Aussie Wesna" a few times in 2011 (in reference to one of my all-time favourites, "The Croatian Panther" Wesna Busic) due to her proclivity to kick people hard, shout "Come on!!" whilst clenching her fist, and push the envelope with some crazy risk-taking. Her multi-taping feud with Matthews was awesome, but having finished it, Jessie ended up sliding back down from semi main status to midcard on the last set of SHIMMER tapings, due for the most part, to the fact that the main event level was so packed and impenetrable. Maybe now there's a spot for her in the main events on a more regular basis? I certainly hope so. On a similar point, with Eagles possibly unable to compete this March in SHIMMER, what better replacement as a villain can you have than Portia Perez? Already arguably the best heel in the women's wrestling – with Eagles gone, Perez can surely lay claim to the biggest shit-disturber in the promotion.
The fundamental thing is though – all of these spots are earned, not gifted. Matthews may be moving into that slot, but she has to go out this next set of tapings and prove that she deserves to stay there just as much as McKay or Perez need to prove that they should join her. Nobody should doubt that any of these three are worthy of being given the ball – but it remains to be seen who will actually run with it and make the fans forget that they're missing a couple of old main eventers.
Someone already grappling with that challenge head-on in 2012 is Kalamity. She has already made the transition from hot prospect to main event star, as the new Femmes Fatales International Champion. Having beaten LuFisto for the belt at Femmes Fatales VII, all eyes will be on Kalamity to have a strong year in 2012 as she starts to write her own legacy in Quebec wrestling and confirm her position as LuFisto's successor. In fact, Kalamity's big challenge this year is to not only to have a strong year of consolidation in Montreal, but to push herself outside her comfort zone in SHIMMER (where she had a superb first impression in October) and elsewhere against a range of opponents. I'm a big fan of Kalamity and really hope that this year will see her pick up bookings across other promotions and becoming as strong an ambassador for Quebec wrestling as her teacher has been. If she wants it, the blueprint has been written.
Jessicka Havok may find herself with the exact same challenge if she unseats Mercedes Martinez at WSU's Fifth Anniversary show on March 3rd. With Martinez' epic title reign now closing in on three years, Havok has been seen by many as the most likely person yet to bring that reign to a close… but if Havok walks out of the NYWC Sportatorium in Deer Park, NY with the WSU World Title, then all the pressure moves onto Havok. Will Havok title defences carry the same interest level on DVD and the live gate as Martinez did? Can Havok measure up to Martinez' quality of title matches in that role? Will DVD/iPPV sales go up or down with the new face on top? Havok has the tools, but she has to prove that she can do it. While I'm sure Martinez will stay there or thereabouts in the top couple of matches on most WSU shows, who will Havok's next "big" challenge be? Lexxus, perhaps? She was the initial recipient of Serena Deeb's spot at the last iPPV (against Melina) and took Martinez to 73 minutes in a title match last year. If she's WSU's next golden girl, 2012 needs to be the year where she steps up a level.
Of course, the knock-on effect carries on down the card too. While semi main eventers move into those top roles, their spots are open for hungry midcarders who can use 2012 as a year to establish themselves as the next big thing in their respective promotions. Mia Yim
, Courtney Rush and Athena are three obvious examples in the SHIMMER roster, for a start. While none are ready to be main eventing yet, all can use this coming year to prove that they can clip at the heels of the main events. Up in Quebec, Femmes Fatales (who also use Courtney Rush regularly) can and should be hoping for productive years from the likes of Angie Skye (who made it to the finals of the Amazones et Titans show back in August) and the dynamic Sherbrooke Connection (Kira & Loue). In WSU, the expectation isn't only on Jessicka Havok, but also on her partners in the Midwest Militia, Sassy Stephie and Allysin Kay. They've been on the end of a major push that has seen the group win plaudits and awards for 2011 based only on a handful of show appearances. When the initial "wow" factor wears off, can Stephie and Allysin keep their momentum and provide strong semi-main events?
There is potential all round when you look at the women's wrestling scene – from new main eventers through to promising rookies, but again, who benefits most this year is as much up to the women themselves as the bookers/promoters. Having a depth issue as far as talent is concerned may be causing Dave Prazak of SHIMMER some headaches as he tries to pare down the excessive 49 names from the October shows before the next tapings in March, but I'm sure he'd rather that than struggle to come up with main events that will sell DVDs. As names and matches continue to be announced for upcoming shows, I'm becoming more and more convinced that 2012 will be a good year. A year, perhaps, when someone will take the chance and ride some momentum to the top.
Ladies, the stage is there. Own it.
– Stew Allen
