NCAA Football Thoughts – 13-14 SEC Conference Season Preview
August 21, 2013
8 comments
It's that time again folks. College football season is right around the corner and just like every summer, I geek out and decide to write some predictions on how I feel every team from my favorite sport will finish the season. I've been writing college football predictions since the days of MySpace blogs and fortunately for me, my good pal Jeremy Lambert has given me a good location to share my predictions with the rest of the world right here at the MAN-CAVE! Now, for the record, I'm not a college football expert by any means. If you want a college football expert, you need to travel over to ESPN's website. I just happen to be a huge fanatic who likes to predict stuff because I love seeing how wrong my predictions are at the end of the year.
This year, instead of just one big old preview, I decided to break it into separate conferences so that way you can skip over any conference you really don't care about. I just so happened to be kicking things off with the most dominant conference in football, the SEC. The SEC have won seven straight BCS National Championships and if my predictions are right this year, they will make it eight straight. Now, before we get any further, I should point out that I have a lot of teams finishing better than i actually think they will. Teams like Texas A&M I have finishing 11-2 even though I think they'll likely end up worse than that. It's because I'm too much of a chicken shit when it comes to predictions and I almost always pick favorites. College football is full of upsets throughout the year, but it's hard to look at the schedule for every single team and pick out each individual upset. I did pick out a few, but for the most part, I'm went with favorites.
Now, with all that nonsense out of the way, it's time to get to the good stuff….

In the MATLAB® language, every value is assigned to a class. For example, creating a variable with an assignment statement constructs a variable of the appropriate class:
>> a = 7;
>> b = 'some string';
>> whos
Name Size Bytes Class
a 1x1 8 double
b 1x11 22 char
Basic commands like whos display the class of each value in the workspace. This information helps MATLAB users recognize that some values are characters and display as text while other values might be double, single, or other types of numbers. Some variables can contain different classes of values like cells.
You can create your own MATLAB classes. For example, you could define a class to represent polynomials. This class could define the operations typically associated with MATLAB classes, like addition, subtraction, indexing, displaying in the command window, and so on. However, these operations would need to perform the equivalent of polynomial addition, polynomial subtraction, and so on. For example, when you add two polynomial objects:
p1 + p2
the plus operation would know how to add polynomial objects because the polynomial class defines this operation.
When you define a class, you overload special MATLAB functions (plus.m for the addition operator) that are called by the MATLAB runtime when those operations are applied to an object of your class.
See Class for Polynomials for an example that creates just such a class.
MATLAB classes use the following words to describe different parts of a class definition and related concepts.
Class definition — Description of what is common to every instance of a class.
Properties — Data storage for class instances
Methods — Special functions that implement operations that are usually performed only on instances of the class
Events — Messages that are defined by classes and broadcast by class instances when some specific action occurs
Attributes — Values that modify the behavior of properties, methods, events, and classes
Listeners — Objects that respond to a specific event by executing a callback function when the event notice is broadcast
Objects — Instances of classes, which contain actual data values stored in the objects' properties
Subclasses — Classes that are derived from other classes and that inherit the methods, properties, and events from those classes (subclasses facilitate the reuse of code defined in the superclass from which they are derived).
Superclasses — Classes that are used as a basis for the creation of more specifically defined classes (i.e., subclasses).
Packages — Folders that define a scope for class and function naming
These are general descriptions of these components and concepts. This documentation describes all of these components in detail.
This section discusses some of the basic concepts used by MATLAB classes.
A class is a definition that specifies certain characteristics that all instances of the class share. These characteristics are determined by the properties, methods, and events that define the class and the values of attributes that modify the behavior of each of these class components. Class definitions describe how objects of the class are created and destroyed, what data the objects contain, and how you can manipulate this data.
It sometimes makes sense to define a new class in terms of existing classes. This enables you to reuse the designs and techniques in a new class that represents a similar entity. You accomplish this reuse by creating a subclass. A subclass defines objects that are a subset of those defined by the superclass. A subclass is more specific than its superclass and might add new properties, methods, and events to those inherited from the superclass.
Mathematical sets can help illustrate the relationships among classes. In the following diagram, the set of Positive Integers is a subset of the set of Integers and a subset of Positive numbers. All three sets are subsets of Real numbers, which is a subset of All Numbers.
The definition of Positive Integers requires the additional specification that members of the set be greater than zero. Positive Integers combine the definitions from both Integers and Positives. The resulting subset is more specific, and therefore more narrowly defined, than the supersets, but still shares all the characteristics that define the supersets.
The "is a" relationship is a good way to determine if it is appropriate to define a particular subset in terms of existing supersets. For example, each of the following statements makes senses:
A Positive Integer is an Integer
A Positive Integer is a Positive number
If the "is a" relationship holds, then it is likely you can define a new a class from a class or classes that represent some more general case.
Classes are usually organized into taxonomies to foster code reuse. For example, if you define a class to implement an interface to the serial port of a computer, it would probably be very similar to a class designed to implement an interface to the parallel port. To reuse code, you could define a superclass that contains everything that is common to the two types of ports, and then derive subclasses from the superclass in which you implement only what is unique to each specific port. Then the subclasses would inherit all of the common functionality from the superclass.
A class is like a template for the creation of a specific instance of the class. This instance or object contains actual data for a particular entity that is represented by the class. For example, an instance of a bank account class is an object that represents a specific bank account, with an actual account number and an actual balance. This object has built into it the ability to perform operations defined by the class, such as making deposits to and withdrawals from the account balance.
Objects are not just passive data containers. Objects actively manage the data contained by allowing only certain operations to be performed, by hiding data that does not need to be public, and by preventing external clients from misusing data by performing operations for which the object was not designed. Objects even control what happens when they are destroyed.
An important aspect of objects is that you can write software that accesses the information stored in the object via its properties and methods without knowing anything about how that information is stored, or even whether it is stored or calculated when queried. The object isolates code that accesses the object from the internal implementation of methods and properties. You can define classes that hide both data and operations from any methods that are not part of the class. You can then implement whatever interface is most appropriate for the intended use.
The following examples illustrate some basic features of MATLAB classes.
Developing Classes — Typical Workflow — applies object-oriented thinking to a familiar concept to illustrate the process of designing classes.
Working with Objects in Functions — shows advantages of using objects to define certain operations and how smoothly object fit in a function-oriented workflow.
Class to Represent Structured Data — shows the application of object-oriented techniques to managing data.
Class to Implement Linked Lists — using a handle class to implement a doubly linked list.

The Mommy Files: De-Stress Holiday Travel
The holidays are supposed to be a time of great enjoyment for families. We get together, we cook together, we eat together, we catch up on each other's lives.
In theory, it's all very sweet and fun, isn't it?
Too bad it often involves traveling by plane, train or car. It often means entertaining kids in a variety of situations. Long lines at the airports, hours in the car and delayed trains to take us out of town.
Here's some excellent ideas on ways to make traveling for the holidays just a bit easier.
If you'll be traveling by plane, you'll want to take advantage of Parenting's article 50 Ways to Entertain Kids on an Airplane. From earthworm crayons and magnetic faces to finger puppets and chopsticks, this list not only includes some very inventive ways to keep the kids busy, it also includes a list of items you can't bring on the plane thanks to strict TSA regulations.
And if you're traveling with small children, you'll want to make sure you both pack some extra clothes in your carry-on (for plane rides) as well as minimize your chances of losing your luggage.
Traveling by car? You'll want to read up on the ways to survive a road trip with kids. And if you live in a cooler climate and plan to travel with baby or toddler, it's a good idea to pack a special bag of clothes that includes lots of layers and an emergency clothing kit with a few changes of cold-weather clothes, just in case you break down.
Finally, as a single parent for several years with my oldest was a little girl, I know how difficult it can be traveling solo. Actually, I can still relate because I just took both kids on a week-long trip that involved several layovers; it was no easy feat.
Check out ways to survive single parent travel before you hit the road.

It may not be as dangerous as Chernobyl, but the Environmental Protection Agency has officially declared a Ridgewood block to be a radioactive, hazardous waste site.
In December, the EPA recommended the plot of land between 1125 and 1139 Irving Ave., the former site of the Wolff-Alport Chemical Co., be added to the federal Superfund list of contaminated sites.
A small plot at 1514 Cooper Ave., also used by the defunct company, is part of the decision, as well.
After five months of consideration, the agency officially added the site, where a deli, an autobody shop, a school and warehouses sit, to the list on Thursday.
While declaring the plot a hazardous waste site may sound unnerving, the EPA proclaimed, in a statement, that the area poses no immediate danger to the surrounding community.
"Testing indicates that there is no immediate threat to nearby residents, employees or customers of businesses in the affected area along Irving and Cooper avenues," the statement read.
Wolff-Alport, which occupied the plots of land in question from 1920 to 1954, processed and sold imported monazite sand among other chemicals to the federal government for use in the Manhattan Project.
Monazite contains up to 8 percent thorium, a radioactive element that emits dangerous radon gas as it decays, and the company dumped thorium waste into the sewer system and on its property until 1947, when the Atomic Energy Commission ordered it to stop.
Wolff-Alport continued to sell thorium products to the government until 1954.
In 2012, the EPA began assessing the site to discover the plot's exact contamination levels.
During its survey, radioactive gas seeping from a hole in the basement of IS 384 was sealed with concrete, shielding material was placed underneath area sidewalks and a fence was constructed to keep trespassers out of a vacant, radioactive parcel of land.
About $2 million has been spent on contamination mitigation at the site, so far.
"By placing the Wolff-Alport Chemical Co. site on the Superfund list," EPA Regional Administrator Judith Enck said, "the EPA can address the contamination to protect people's health in the long-term."
In December, an EPA report stated that 1,133 picocuries per gram of thorium-232 gamma radiation, equal to one-millionth of a millicurie, had been measured.
Jamaica Hospital Medical Center radiation safety officer Dr. Rob Solomon said the levels did not pose a threat to public health.
"When we do a bone scan, we inject 25 millicuries. Heart scans can be 30 millicuries or more," Solomon said in December. "Based on that framework, I'm not worried."
With the decision, the Wolff-Alport site becomes the 87th in New York State to be added to the federal Superfund list or recommended for the designation, the EPA said.
It is the third area in New York City to be given Superfund status, alongside sites along the Gowanus Canal in Brooklyn and the Newtown Creek on the Brooklyn-Queens border.

And our nurses follow your birth plan as closely as possible, so you can welcome your baby into the world the way you desire.
Parking Pass - You will receive one parking pass that can be delegated to a family member or friend. To get the pass, go to the Guest Services office in the lobby. They are open Monday-Friday, 7 a.m. - 10 p.m. and Saturday, Sunday and Holidays, 9 a.m. - 9 p.m. Other visitors can also park in the ramp, for a small fee. Parking is free on holidays.
Visitors - You decide who visits and when. You may want to ask some relatives or friends to wait to visit until after you've returned home so you have plenty of time to rest after your baby's birth. To protect you and your baby, we recommend that you ask relatives or friends with colds and/or flu-like symptoms not to visit. Children under age 12 must check in at the nursing station.
Meal Service - The Food & Nutrition team strives to provide high quality food to promote health and healing. Meal service consists of a house select meal delivered to your room three times a day. A diet clerk will visit you before your second meal to "personalize" your meals and accommodate your preferences, desired portion sizes or any allergies you may have. If your physician has ordered a special diet, the menu may be modified to adjust for changes in calorie, texture, fluids or other nutrients.
Birthing Center Family Kitchen - Since we know that new moms can be hungry at any time, we make every attempt to keep healthy foods ready for you whenever you may need it. We also know that expecting dads and labor support persons need an opportunity to grab a quick snack without having to go too far from their loved one's room.
Each floor of the Birthing Center has a kitchen for between-meal use by you and your labor support person. You will find juices, fruit, sandwiches, soup, milk, yogurt, crackers, fresh vegetables, bagels, muffins and cereals.
Going Home - Routine discharge is by 1 PM - You and your physician or nurse midwife will decide together when you are ready to go home. Mothers who have a vaginal birth generally go home the second day after giving birth. Mothers who have a cesarean birth usually go home about three days after giving birth. Factors that could extend or shorten your stay include complications, personal preference and insurance coverage.

Championship club Reading went to watch Fabio Saraiva on Saturday – only to discover he'd gone out on loan.
They sent a scout to the Gallagher Stadium for the match against Hampton & Richmond but were told Saraiva had rejoined his former club Merstham until the end of the season.
The midfielder's loan move came less than a fortnight after he'd scored four goals in two away victories.
Stones boss Jay Saunders said: "Fabio had done well for us but I felt he froze a little bit in front of big crowds at home.
"It's no secret Mickey Phillips and Alex Brown have been my preferred pairing in central midfield. I knew I was going to start with them now they're fit and Fabio's an honest lad who just want to play games.
"He feels he's improved here and I still believe he has a future with us. We can always call him back after 28 days.
"He's got everything in his game. He's a great passer and he scores goals but there are areas he needs to improve. I see him in the Mickey Phillips role. Mickey has the edge, but he also has 10 years on him, so you'd expect that."
Phillips will continue to captain the side in the absence of injured skipper Steve Watt when United go to Kingstonian for a top-of-the-table clash on Saturday.

I have a Wolf AG range with a griddle. Not a heavy duty cook. Lots of breakfast fare like pancakes, french toast, etc. Some stir frying and some garlic dishes. Loads of baking. After reading all the forums and postings I finally concluded that I want a min 900 CFM hood and I was set on the Imperial WH2000PS-K with 1000CFM (7" duct): http://www.imperialhoods.com/m8/WH2000PS-K--imperial-wh2000ps-k-wall-range-hood-1000-cfm.html Double checking before I place the order, I realized that this hood is shallow with only a 20 1/8" depth. I measured and at that depth the hood reaches to the mid point of the front burners. There are posts here that say the hood may not be as effective being so shallow. So, back to the appliance store and a call to Modernaire. BOTH say that their 600 CFM units are at least as good if not better than any other vendors 900 CFM unit. A similar model Vent-a-Hood with a CFM of 600 has a depth of 21" while the Modernaire has a depth of 24". Vent-a-hood: Modernaire: Price wise, the Imperial 1000 CFM and Moderaire 600 CFM are about the same price. But the model that has the same styling as the Imperial is more. The Vent-a-hood is definitely pricier. So I am wondering, is it worth the extra $$ to get a deeper hood (if even 7/8") but that has less CFM? Can Ventahood and Modernaire 600 blowers really be as good as an Imperial 1000 CFM blower? |
Follow-Up Postings:
no clue on an answer for you, but i'll be at this decision in a couple months, so free bump so someone else can :) |
To be brief, because this has been covered in various ways in myriad other messages: Fans have a relationship between flow rate (cfm) and the pressure difference across the fan. The rated flow rate of a fan at zero static pressure is measured in open air with, as one might guess, the same pressure on both sides. As the flow is restricted by one means or another, (e.g., the hood aperture transition, baffle losses or mesh losses, duct friction, etc.) the flow rate goes down. Some suppliers will rate their fan hood assemblies, accounting for some of the losses. In this manner they can claim that a 600 cfm assembly equals a 900 cfm fan, but that assumes that the fans have the same fan curve (flow rate vs. pressure drop). Fans are all different, so the only way to really guess what will happen is obtain the fan curve, estimate the losses through the entire system, including the pressure loss from imperfect make-up air, and then see what flow rate is achieved. kas |
Thanks kaseki - I appreciate the explanation and did read as much as possible of the previous posts and sorry I may have missed the detail. From a simple end consumer point of view, it would be nice if there were some sort of reliable standard but I guess that's asking for too much. It is the way the hood vendors differentiate themselves I presume. For my application, I think I will stick with the Imperial brand for several reasons. Given our cooking style, I think their 900cfm unit should suffice. It has lower sones ratings at the higher speed than the vent-a-hood (even though I know that is somewhat subjective as well), it is aesthetically more appealing for our design and they have a 7year warranty whereas Modernaire is 2 and Vent-a-hood is 5. Price wise, there is not too much of a difference between VAH and Imperial, but MA is pricier. Hoping this all works out and I am not wasting my $$ :) Thanks again for your help. I appreciate it. |
The biggest obstruction to calculating this stuff is that residential hoods are not specified for pressure loss versus flow rate. The best one can do is scale commercial baffle hoods if the residential model is baffle type. More fan is always better than less fan, just like in commercial sports spectacles. kas |
Here's the empirical answer to that question. We got a 36" wolf range with grill- which calls for 900 cfm. We installed the 600cfm vent-a-hood, on top of that, we raised it higher than the recommended height (tall cook!). We did that 6 years ago, and have heavily used the grill (on average 2-3 x per week all those years). In our experience, when we cook healthy foods- non greasy and so not much smoke- the hood is perfect. (Examples: fish, chicken, chicken sausages, filet mignon/ not marbled beef ). When we cook less healthy foods (beef with a lot of marbling, or fatty cuts of meat, really oily salmon, pork sausages) then it is quite possible that the smoke alarm is going to chime in. A quick run to open a window or swoosh the back door is needed. If I had it to do over again, I'd do it exactly the same, but might decide to install it at the recommended height. I think ours is 6" higher- and this has a big impact. Good luck, and cook healthy!! |
I would avoid such a shallow hood. All the experts say the hood should cover the cooking surface. I can't offer any technical data but it seems like common sense. Most hoods are 24" or 27" deep. |
- Posted by gerardjerry (My Page) on Sun, May 5, 13 at 16:18
The Imperial hood you mentioned requires a 10" duct to get 1000 cfm, NOT a 7" duct. Also, deeper is always going to perform better. The Vent A Hood is quieter. |

I had a 10$ off coupon n saw the great reviews n thought why not???So I only ended up paying a few bucks for this.If you have very oily skin I would stay away. The reason this has so many great reviews is because there is only one person hat reviewed with very oily skin. This has a pump on it that I liked the look of it at first but sometimes when you press down nothing comes out and sometimes you get an extra big globb so I ended up hating the pump.The product itself is somewhat greasy to me and for me being acne prone, is something I would run from putting on my face.This made my face oiler and shinier faster after my makeip application. I had a few breakouts not sure if it was from this or hormonal time of the month. I would not purchase this cheap greasy primer again.Prob great for dry or drier skin sounds like
I use a lot of primer so it's one of my more costly makeup expenses. I'm always hoping to find one that's a great deal, but so far the best ones I've found are Lancome Pro Base and Smashbox Photo FInish with Dermaxyl. This VS one wasn't terribly expensive and had great reviews but after 2 weeks of use, I am forced to admit it isn't working for me. Its failings are two-fold; it doesn't give a soft look around my eyes like the Smashbox Dermaxyl does, and my makeup melts off a lot faster than it does with Smashbox Dermaxyl.So back to my old favorite I've gone.
Update- started using this product again. When I tried it the first time I was wearing it on its own, without moisturizer. Now that I am using it over my moisturizer it is perfect! Makes my studiofix flawless looking and extends my makeup by a few hours. Will repurchase as I am running out.
I really wanted to love this product, but it just wasn't meant to be. The texture is very nice; it is very silky smooth. However, I felt that is just sat on top of my skin and did not absorb at all. When I applied my MAC studiofix on top it seemed to not really bond well to the primer. I think I will just stick to my regular Aveda hydrating lotion, because this just doesn't seem to do it for me. Maybe a good face primer just doesn't exist....

Ok, I have tried A TON of Primers. Seriously, everything from Fyrinnae to Maybelline to Smashbox to Cargo....The list is huge. This is the very first one I've actually used up in its entirety AND have repurchased immediately, because all of my other backup Primers just won't do. It's affordable (about $16...so half the price that Cargo Blu Ray is), has a great clear pump bottle so you can easily see how much you have left, goes on smoothly, has SPF, gives a slight luminescence to the skin if you want to wear it alone, and creates a nice smooth canvas for your foundation. My one and only gripe is that if you squirt a little too enthusiastically with the pump, the product may shoot across the room and decorate the wall next to you (true story!). Also, the last couple pumps left in the bottle come out just a little more 'dry' and less emolliant than the rest of the bottle. I love this stuff. Will continue to repurchase.

I have oily to combination skin so I have been looking for a primer to use daily especially in the evening when I go out with friends, that will eliminate shine. Well I have found that product!
This primer not only has a velvet feel to it, it also minimizes pores, controls shine and makes my foundation look flawless. This is perfect for oily to combo skin I will definitely repurchase this product again!
I didn't know much about makeup primers, but after looking at Youtube videos, I decided to check some out. The VS brand is one of my FAVORITES!
The price is very appropriate and I would definitely purchase it again. Add me to the list of satisfied customers!
Add me to the list of people who are so happy with this primer. It comes in a pump, which makes it hygenic. A little primer goes a long way. It has SPF and glides on smooth. Feels like the smashbox primer, but at a fraction of the price. I was talking to the salesperson, and they said that very little primer is needed actually to hold your makeup in place. She said some people pile on the primer, which is a big mistake. Very little, goes a looooong way. And it truly does for me too, one pump is enough to cover my entire face, and neck. Doesn't cause flaking like other primers do, and my makeup lasts 8+ hours with this. Will definitely repurchase this!

What's not to like? It feels like smashbox but this one has UVA and UVB sun protection.Smashbox does not provide UVA protection.This makes it decieving since the SPF refers to UVB anot UVA.The price makes it a steal

I really like this primer. I would say love, but it's just that I don't think primer is a necessity for makeup. But this feels like nothing else I've ever felt, it's velvety smooth and isn't shiny or oily like most primers. Gives my face a nice smooth base and doesn't break me out. The price is nice, too considering VS isn't always cheap and neither are primers in general.
The pump works on mine and everything but it sort of spits out the product at me and scares me everytime and gives me too much. I even try to press really slowly and still it gets me. Oh well.
Last week someone asked me if I had changed my hair color. Nope. "Something about you makes you look younger." Pretty sure it was this product! It does a great job of making small fine lines disappear, and my make-up lasts a lot longer to boot. I hadn't used a primer before but received a sample of Lancome. Not wanting to pay the hefty price I did a lot of research and came up with VS. I've never bought any other makeup from VS before, but I'm definitely impressed with this. I love that it comes in a pump bottle, too!

Wednesday, July 4, 2012
ROCHESTER, N.Y. – The Rochester Rhinos defeated Antigua Barracuda FC 4-1 at Sahlen's Stadium on Wednesday night as Rhinos head coach Jesse Myers gave newcomer Kendell McFayden his first start of the season, and he responded with two first half goals to pace the side to victory. Antigua superstar Peter Byers pulled one back for the Barracudas, but Andrew Hoxie's second-half brace put the match out of reach. The victory gives the Rhinos two wins in their last three matches after ending a seven-match winless streak two weeks ago in Richmond. It only took three minutes for McFayden to open the scoring for Rochester. Rhinos forward Tam McManus played McFayden a through ball, and he finished past sliding Antigua goalkeeper Molvin James to give Rochester a 1-0 lead. The goal was his first of the season while the assist was McManus' second. After the Rhinos' goal, the Barracudas responded with some pressure on Rochester's goal. After a Rochester turnover in its own half, Antigua forward Kerry Skepple put Byers through behind the Rhinos' defense in the ninth minute. Rochester center back Troy Roberts was able to track Byers down, and he made a sliding tackle to deny him a shot on goal at the penalty spot. In the 15th minute, Antigua midfielder Tamarley Thomas was able to make a sophisticated run off the ball between Rhinos right back Lucas Fernandez and center back Tyler Bellamy. Antigua midfielder Randolph Burton played an early ball into the box, and Thomas dribbled in on goal. Rhinos goalkeeper Kristian Nicht was quick off of his line and took it off Thomas' foot before he could shoot on goal. All of Antigua's pressure on the Rhinos opened up space behind their back four, and the Rhinos were able to capitalize for one of the first times this year. Rochester right winger JC Banks won the ball in the middle third and played a first time ball over the top to McFayden, who ran the ball down, advanced on James, and calmly finished past the international goalkeeper to double Rochester's lead. The assist was Banks seventh of the season and leaves him two off of the single-season club record of nine. There would be no denying Byers and Antigua in the 29th minute, however, as the forward ran through Rhinos center midfielder Michael Tanke 40 yards from goal. He settled the ball, took one more touch, and then hit a screamer on goal from 35 yards out. The ball was driven over the head of the 6-foot-5 Nicht and landed in the upper-left corner of the goal to cut the Rhinos' lead to 2-1. It was Byers third goal of the season, and Antigua's first goal of the season away from home. After playing the first half in 90 degree heat with stifling humidity, the second half started out a little more slowly. Rochester substitute Isaac Kissi had the first chance of the half in the 66th minute. He got on the end of a bouncing ball from 12 yards out and carefully shaped his finishing touch around James. The Antiguan goalkeeper was able to get his hand on the ball and parry it around the far post. Danny Earls whipped the ensuing corner kick into the near post, but left winger Quavas Kirk flicked his header past the near post. The Rhinos showed an improved defensive shape in the second half that limited time, space, and chances for Antigua. Fernandez, Roberts, Bellamy, and Earls were much tighter and cohesive in defending as a flat back four. Center midfielders Tyler Rosenlund and Michael Tanke were more dedicated to screening the back four and working hard to control the middle of the park. The improved defensive shape limited Antigua to one shot in the final 45 minutes of the match. The Rhinos were able to put the match out of reach in the 76th minute when Earls whipped a corner from the right into the near post. This time it found the head of substitute Conor Chinn, who was able to get a header on target. James made a fantastic reflex save, but Hoxie was able to roof the rebound to give Rochester a 3-1 lead. Hoxie completed his brace in the 80th minute when Kissi played a through ball that the 6-foot-4 Hoxie was able to get on the end of. The big forward displayed his sublime technical skills and finished past a helpless James to make it 4-1. The victory pulls the Rhinos within two points of idle Charleston for second place in the USL PRO table, but the Battery have two matches in hand. The three points move the Rhinos six points ahead of Wilmington and leaves the Hammerheads with one match in hand. The next Rhinos home game is Saturday, July 7th at 7:05 p.m. against the Dayton Dutch Lions at Sahlen's Stadium.

King Bird
Neil Hayward spent most of 2013 crisscrossing the continent on a quest to see as many bird species as he could in a calendar year. When it was all over, he'd seen more than anyone-ever-and broken the Big Year record.
Last August word spread that a Blue-footed Booby had been spotted paddling around a lake in southern Arizona, not far from the Mexican border. A species more at home in the Galapagos Islands, it was a rarity, and birders flocked to see it. But perhaps no one went to the lengths Neil Hayward did. When he saw the news on eBird, the popular online database, he was 2,400 miles away, in Cape Hatteras, North Carolina. He immediately hired a taxi to take him to the nearest airport, two hours distant in Norfolk, Virginia. After a three-leg flight to Phoenix, he rented a car for the 180-mile drive to Patagonia Lake State Park. Then he got in a kayak.
In the middle of a lake in the desert, trying not to capsize from excitement, Hayward snapped a few photos of the seabird before it flew off. He called the sighting his "Booby Prize." It marked the 700th bird species he'd seen since the beginning of his Big Year, a marathon attempt to see as many birds as possible in the continental United States and Canada. For Hayward, this began a frenzied final dash to surpass the all-time record of 748, with each additional bird sending him caroming around the map of North America.
Today the photo of the Blue-footed Booby is strung on the wall of Hayward's home in Cambridge, Massachusetts, along-side dozens of other snapshots from his Big Year. Hayward's girlfriend, Gerri Buck, hung the photos in celebration of the 40-year-old Englishman's year of relentless peregrination: 193,758 miles flown, 51,758 miles driven, 147 hours at sea. He spent 195 nights away from home, traversing 28 states and 7 Canadian provinces. All in the pursuit of a goal that often threatened to flit just out of reach. But by December 31, Hayward had recorded 750 bird species across North America, an epic feat of birding that no one had ever achieved before. He'd beaten Sandy Komito, who had held the record since 1998, by two species.
For many serious birders, a Big Year is a silly extravagance; for others, it's a once-in-a-life- time effort, often planned out years in advance. They work from the American Birding Association (ABA) checklist, some 981 species. Species are ranked by rarity between 1 (for the most common species) and 6 (species considered either extinct or extirpated from the region). Only 14 birders have ever seen more than 700 ABA species in a year. At 40, Hayward is by far the youngest member of that elite "700 Club."
A shock of salt-and-pepper hair pokes out from the lucky, beat-up Red Sox hat Hayward always wears in the field, and his trim build seems to convey potential energy, like a compressed spring. He speaks with a quick, precise British accent frequently offset by an excited laugh. He grew up in a small village outside Oxford, England, and earned a Ph.D. in genetics. A decade ago he moved to Cambridge to found and run a biotech startup, which he cashed out of in 2011 to do consulting full time. That freed up his schedule to follow his overriding passion: birding. It had been a big part of his life since he was young, though one he mainly kept to himself growing up.
"When I was a kid, birding was a really nerdy thing, and I was embarrassed to tell people," he says. "Now, as an adult, I idon't really care what other people think. But I also feel really proud to tell people I spent a year watching birds."
In fact, Hayward had begun the year with no such plans. But he did well during spring migration, and by late March he had logged more than 300 species. When asked online if he was doing a Big Year, he'd replied, "No. Because that would be insane." Then, in late April, a Bahama Woodstar was spotted in Denver, Pennsylvania, the first seen in the United States in more than three decades. Hayward rushed to the site, just missing the bird. The deep disappointment he felt made something click within him, and he decided to go all-in, encouraged by his incredibly supportive girlfriend. ("The Dismal Swamp is a vacation destination?" she asked dubiously of a mid-June getaway; he bagged a Swainson's Warbler.) He calls 2013 his "Accidental Big Year."
After he'd passed 700 species, and knew the record was a possibility, Hayward pushed himself to the brink of exhaustion, traveling almost constantly. He slept in rental cars and on airport couches, trying to strategize every move, maximize every waking moment. "I was so tired, for much of the year I could hardly keep my eyes open," he says.
Hayward made eight separate trips just to Alaska, where more than 50 of the species on his list were found. (He became an expert on Alaskan Airlines' frequent-flier program.) He scanned for Ross's Gulls while looking out for polar bears on the beach in Barrow. On the remote and windswept Pribilof Islands he spotted a Common Redstart, a species that ranges from England to central Asia and had never before been documented in North America. Under ABA rules, such first sightings are classified as "provisional," and must be documented and approved before being added to a list--something that could take years. Of Hayward's 750 species, three were provisionals, and his record must wait until they are accepted to be official.
"I'm not going to wait two years for a committee to weigh in," says Komito, the former record holder, who met Hayward last summer on a pelagic tour off the California coast. "Neil is honorable, hard-working, and knowledgeable. As soon as I heard that he broke my record, I emailed him and said, 'If I had a crown, I would be delighted to pass it along to you as the new champion.' "
The appearance of a rare specimen could lead to preposterously tangled travel itineraries. A sighting would appear on eBird, and Hayward's carefully orchestrated plans would be upended. He points to a photo of a Little Bunting he saw in the last week of the year. "I flew from Cambridge to California to get that bird," he says. "And then suddenly there was a La Sagra's Flycatcher in Florida, and I flew there. And that's when I heard about the Rustic Bunting in Alaska. So I was in all four corners of the U.S. in one week."
Such a strategy might sound lunatic--not to mention that taking 177 flights in a year leaves a carbon footprint the size of a small nation--but Hayward sees it as the only choice. "If you wanted to maximize your chances of breaking a record during a year," he says, "you would just leave and chase that bird."
Even if cost were not an issue, Hayward doesn't think it would be possible to go much above 760 in any single year, given the rarity of many species. But cost is an issue: For all the meticulous tallies of his travels and sightings Hayward posted for fans on his blog, the one number he refused to compute was his Big Year's price tag. Hayward contends that he never added it up for two reasons: because he was worried it would discourage him from finishing his year, and because he would be embarrassed for other people to know how much he'd spent chasing birds. "It was a lot," he says sheepishly.
The birds didn't always cooperate, of course. There were misses, slumps, profound frustrations. Hayward's "nemesis bird" was a Mountain Quail, which he hunted through the dense thickets of the California mountains for six days before spotting a bevy crossing the road. Given the mysteriousness of birds' habits, I ask him whether his experience had made him superstitious at all. "I certainly felt there was luck," he replies. "But I also felt like you could make your own luck." In Arizona he'd arrived at 9:30 a.m. at a feeder where a rare Berylline Hummingbird had been seen. He sat there all day, in the rain, and just before dark the hummer flitted to the feeder, hovering for a few seconds before dart- ing away. That was a good-luck day.
In true Victorian fashion, sightings and totals for birding operate on an honor system, and I ask Hayward whether there's any temptation to fudge the numbers. "It's so much effort to do this, it would just be crazy to want to cheat," he says, shaking his head. "Because you're sort of cheating yourself, really." Besides, it isn't as if there's a cash prize for breaking the record.
Hayward's record was huge news in the birding world, naturally, and by year's end his blog was getting thousands of hits a day as people around the world followed his adventures and cheered him on. For many fans it was a vicarious thrill. "I, like many other followers of your Big Year, have never met you and probably never will, but reading and following your blog made me feel like I was along for the ride," wrote one anonymous commenter.
While the record was always on his mind--Komito himself ribbed Hayward good-humoredly in the field--he feels strongly that helping one another out is the real spirit of birding. He became good friends with Jay Lehman, a birder from Cincinnati who was also doing a Big Year. Lehman had heard about Hayward's attempt and read his blog. The two met on the same boat trip where Hayward met Komito, becoming fast friends despite a 30-year age difference. "Neil encouraged me and sent text messages and emails about birds that I still needed," says Lehman. They joined forces in the field several times during the last five months of the year, from Barrow, Alaska, to Cape Hatteras. Lehman finished his year at 735, and drove to Boston for Hayward's year-end surprise party. This spring the two will meet up with several other members of the 700 Club for a trip off the Outer Banks.
Hayward loves that he can be casual now about a day in the field, and actually take his time to enjoy the birds. On a blue-sky February morning, the sun dazzling on a recent snowfall that clings to the scrub oak, we hop into Hayward's car and drive an hour north of Boston, to the Parker River Wildlife Refuge on Plum Island. It is one of Hayward's favorite spots near home, and even in the frigid depths of a New England winter he feels confident about spotting something interesting.
As if on cue, a gang of Wild Turkeys saunters across the refuge road; an enormous tom peers menacingly into our open window, looking ready to demand our wallets. Farther on, Hayward spots a flutter in the underbrush and fixes his binoculars on a Cedar Waxwing, its red-dipped wingtip like a tiny beacon in the stark midwinter landscape.
Plum Island is desolate today, and it's a bit spooky when two rough-looking men in a beat-up pickup truck motion for us to stop. Hayward does so, and rolls down his window. The driver, sporting a lumberjack beard and sunglasses, leans out and says, "We're looking for a Fox Sparrow." Although Hayward is a rock star among birders these days, he doesn't reveal himself--and if these guys recognize his trademark Sox hat, they don't let on. They exchange friendly advice and go on their way.
As he gained an online following, Hayward became shy about identifying himself in public, worried that people would think he was "commoditizing" birding. "I wasn't birding because I wanted to break a record or see a certain number of species," he insists, a bit improbably. "I was birding because it was really fun." And in the end, he says, his Big Year wasn't about numbers at all but the time he got to spend in hundreds of wild places like this, looking quietly at the landscape, hop- ing for something remarkable to appear.
Hayward parks his car near a large field blanketed with snow. He opens his trunk and takes out his enormous Swarovski spotting scope, mounted on a tripod. We look out over the landscape. To my untrained eye, nothing seems to move in the expanse of whiteness, but with a quick and fluid motion, Hayward locks the scope in place and beckons me to look through the eyepiece. A hundred yards distant, the bright-yellow eyes of a Snowy Owl blink slowly as it peers above a drift, head swiveling like a radar dish. Without the scope, I can't see a thing. "I've had a lot of practice," Hayward says, grinning.
I ask him if part of the allure of the Big Year is its finite nature, knowing that whatever you put yourself through, it will come to an end.
"I could never imagine doing that again," he says. "Then again, if someone beat my record, I might be tempted."

Hello -
I saw this fig tree while taking a road trip over the weekend. Is it possible to determine what type of fig it is? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Follow-Up Postings:
I do not give you a sugestion,I tell you a fact: Your fig is English Bron Turkey as known in Europe. Your fruit is not quite ripe and the tatse is not great at this stage. Why not let it ripe totally before you take it off? |
- Posted by texascockatoos 7B (My Page) on Sat, Aug 7, 10 at 10:03
Hi herman2, Thanks for letting me know it's a Brown Turkey. This tree is about 40 miles from my house and the day that I was there I did not see any ripe figs. But I am glad to see large fig trees on their own doing so well near me. Thanks again. |
This fig is not the run of the mill MIxed hybrid,Brown ,Turkey,but the one and only desirable ENGLISH Brown Turkey. |

These aren't willy-nilly have a delay, get compensation rules - there are important qualifiers. Here's a quick summary below. See Martin's full Flight Delay Compensation help with free template letters for more.
First, write to the airline stating the details of your delay and asking for the compensation. If you're unsuccessful, depending on where you flew from and the airline you flew with, go to the Civil Aviation Authority, the European Consumer Centre, or the relevant regulator to get a ruling. However as these aren't ombudsman schemes, their decisions, which should help to push the airline into paying up, aren't binding.
When you do reclaim, many people get paid out easily, such as Samantha. She emailed me saying: "We were delayed over three hours on our Easyjet flight back from Palma to Stansted in June due to a lack of crew. I sent the letter on 16 July, had an e-mail reply two days later agreeing to our claim and €500 was refunded to our card yesterday (5 August)." Bryan also had success with Easyjet. He emailed me saying: "My wife and I were delayed for five hours on a July flight from Edinburgh to Belfast. Used your templates and received 500 Euros from Easyjet in compensation." But others meet a brick wall - few are in the middle - often because of two court cases...
Two major airlines - Thomson and Jet2 - have been fighting two specific elements of the flight delay rules in court and they, and a few other airlines, have put relevant cases on hold while they await the outcome of their respective bids to make appeals to the Supreme Court.
The Jet2 case is all about what is defined as being the airlines fault. It argued that unexpected technical faults are extraordinary, meaning airlines don't need to payout, but the Court of Appeal ruled that airlines can only cite technical faults as a reason for not paying compensation if the fault was originally caused by an event that was "out of the ordinary".
Meanwhile the Thomson case saw the airline argue that you can't claim for flight delays and cancellations that are more than two years old. Again the Court of Appeal ruled against this and said you can claim for flights delays and cancellations that took place over two years ago.
But despite the airlines currently petitioning against the Court of Appeal's rulings, it's still worth submitting new claims and asking for old claims to be reopened from when they were put on hold pending the Court of Appeal judgment. You never know... and nothing is lost by trying.
I don't want to push unnecessary compensation culture. For someone on a £10 flight, only just three hours delayed, which didn't bother them, it's worth questioning whether it's fair to push for £200. I'd urge caution or it'll push up all our air fares.
Yet if you're a family with young kids who spent 24 hours in a smelly airport lounge with kids sleeping on the seats - then push for your rights. Each individual must make their own ethical choice of whether to take up the cudgels.

Article brought to you by: Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)Al-Qaeda leader captured by U.S. Forces in Libya
By Catholic Online (NEWS CONSORTIUM)
October 6th, 2013 Catholic Online (www.catholic.org) Long suspected in two U.S. Embassy bombings in East Africa in 1998, Al-Qaeda leader Nazih Abdul-Hamed al-Ruqai, known by his alias "Anas al-Liby" has been taken into custody by U.S. Forces in Tripoli, Libya. "As a result of the Libya operation, one of the world's most wanted terrorists was captured and is now in U.S. custody," U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said in a statement. LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - Al-Liby was reportedly parked outside his home in Tripoli when personnel in three vehicles encircled him, smashed his car's window and seized his gun. Members of the U.S. Army's Delta Force unit before grabbed him and fled. The raid was later confirmed by the U.S Department of Defense.Department of Defense Press Secretary George Little said in an earlier statement that the 49-year-old al-Liby was being held in a "secure location outside of Libya." Ending a 15-year manhunt, al-Liby was listed on the FBI's most wanted list. It also opens the way for criminal proceedings against him to take place in the U.S. Indicted by the Federal Court for the Southern District of New York in 2000, al-Liby is accused of planning the bombings of the U.S. embassies in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, and Nairobi, Kenya on Aug. 7, 1998. The bombings killed 224 civilians and injured 5,000 others. Believed to have been seen as a computer specialist within the Al-Qaeda network, al-Liby studied electronic and nuclear engineering. Graduating from Tripoli University, it's believed that he became an anti-Moammar Qaddafi activist, and spent time in Sudan, where Osama bin Laden was based in the early 1990s. After bin Laden was forced to leave Sudan, al-Liby turned up in the United Kingdom in 1995, where he was granted political asylum and lived in Manchester. Arrested by Scotland Yard in 1999, he was released due to lack of evidence. He later fled Britain. Al-Liby's name was included on the FBI's most wanted terrorists list that was introduced shortly after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. The U.S. Department of State had offered a $5 million reward for information leading to his arrest. In the meantime, the Libyan government has asked for "clarifications" from the U.S. They say that Libyan nationals should be tried in their own country. The Libyan government also said it hoped the incident would not affect its strategic relationship with the United States. Navy SEALs are believed to have also carried out a pre-dawn raid on a Somali coastal base housing members of the armed group Al-Shabab the same day. Military officials claimed the operation was aimed at "high-profile" targets of the group. Click here to learn about our Saint Michael the Archangel conference this Nov 1-3!

Energy independence
Have you noticed the recent rapid rise in gas prices at the pump? Today I saw prices at some stations above $3.40; are we headed back to the $4.00 a gallon range?
We all hope not, but without a national energy policy we are captive to international speculation and foreign governments. We all know what the problem is and frankly the solution isn't that difficult. Why do we find ourselves where we are and what does it take to fix it?
Our nation is dependant on foreign oil; much of which comes from countries that don't like us. These countries are in the Middle East and from our own continent, namely Venezuela.
We have an "energy" department who's sole purpose is to prevent the country from getting the energy it needs from local sources.
We have numerous regulations that make nuclear energy production extremely difficult to expand.
We have a stated policy by our President that coal should be an energy source exiled to the trash heap of history.
Our government and the pin-headed federal regulators make fracking extremely difficult, even though we have huge deposits of natural gas.
Finally, energy production is dramatically down on federal lands and expansion in the Gulf of Mexico isn't happening.
And do you think we will ever have drilling in ANWAR? Not on your life if the "powers that be" today have their way.
The bottom line is this, we have the energy resources in America, plus the pipeline from Canada, to be energy independent. The President and Congress won't allow us to use all of the resources we have; that is borderline criminal.
Even our Congressman, Mr. Westmoreland has voted several times against drilling in ANWAR and against expanding production in the Gulf of Mexico.
When both sides of the aisle are the problem, what do you do?
Citizens have to take action; there are commercials on television that ask you to become an Energy Voter. What should an energy voter look like?
It is someone who takes becoming energy independent seriously, holds their elected officials accountable, and uses their ballot to elect individuals who will work day and night to become energy independent.
What will it take to become energy independent? Defund the EPA and enact reasonable regulations with an Environmental "Solutions" Agency that will work with companies, not against them.
We must open all areas to exploration. We can protect the environment and extract the energy resources we need. Work with our neighbors to the north and start the pipeline now.
Allow new energy sources to be developed by private industry, with NO help from government. When green energy is ready and cost effective, the market will welcome it.
Finally, elect men and women who believe energy independence is not only an economic issue, but also a critical national security issue.
We can be energy independent if we elect statesmen who will lead and act in the interest of our national interests, economy and security.

If you wonder why the not-the-greatest Westmoreland easily beat you and the other guy, look no further to your own letter right here. Get a map or just use Google next time you have no clue about where countries and continents are located. DUH.
Thank God you are not going to represent anyone.

Special Needs Pets
Over the years I have come across many pets that for one reason or another aren't "normal". They are "Special Needs Pets", in the fact that they have behavioral issues, medical needs or are senior pets.
Pets can have behavioral issues such as aggression, or anxiety. Many develop medical issues and need medication such as Diabetes, Thyroid, Kidney Failure, or Epilepsy. As pets get older they also develop issues such as arthritis, sight & hearing reduction or loss.
It is hard enough to be able to leave your pet but when your pet is a "Special Needs" pet that makes the task even more difficult. Speaking from personal experience & having a "Special Needs" cat of my own with Kidney Failure I know how hard it is trying to find somebody to be able to take care of her, understand her needs & be able to administer her medication.
There are a lot of pet care providers out there that do not have the specialized training & experience in how to work with & handle caring for these pets. With behavioral issues such as aggression, or anxiety many pet care providers will refuse to take on these pets. Either for the fact of the additional time & effort that needs to be put into their care, or the chance of being injured.
I welcome these "Special Needs" pets with open arms. I love the challenge of working with these pets, being able to help them over come obstacles, and being able to help their owners cope with their "Special Needs". Yes it takes a lot of extra work & patients but the result at the end of the day is the ultimate reward for me!
I do not claim to be a "trainer" or "veterinarian" by any means. Having the opportunity to work with the founders of "Specialized Veterinary Medicine" in Illinois, I was able to specialize in internal medicine, cardiology, & emergency medicine in pets. I obtained a good medical background as a certified veterinary assistant, and have worked closely with many behavioralists & trainers. I have learned techniques, methods & ideas that have enabled me to earn the trust & respect from these pets in order to properly care for them. I know several methods & "tricks" to medicate pets, behavioral & training methods to work with aggressive, nervous or shy pets. As well as a trained eye to see clinical signs and have an understanding of senior pets abilities & needs.
It may take a few visits prior to your departure of me working with your pet to ensure we are both comfortable with their care while you are away. I do not charge extra for the care of these pets unless extra time beyond the standard stop by or overnight averages is exceeded or necessary. The initial consultation as always is free. Any additional visits to your home after to meet with you or work with your pets is subject to the standard stop by rate.
I am only willing to work with a pet & it's owner under the following circumstance. The pet owner MUST be willing to acknowledge, except, and work to improve or properly care for their pets "Special Needs".
There are times a pet owner is not aware their pet has a "special need". This is sometimes accessed after I have cared for the pet. In this situation I will bring it to the attention to the pet owner in a understanding and suggestive manner. I will try to educate, make suggestions and do my best to work out a plan of action with the pet owner. If I feel that the pet owner is not willing, or has not taken the necessary steps to work with me and their pet to properly handle their pets needs I will refuse to care for the pet. I have to do what is the best interest of the pet.
I'm always willing to give references and brag about my "Special Needs" pets that I care for! Their owners are also willing to share their experiences of working with me & the strides we've made with their pets together. After all their success stories are my success stories!
I work under the philosophy "There is no such thing as a bad pet, only bad owners". Pets do things for a reason. Once you understand and respect their reasoning you are better able to work together with them.

Here's my interpretation of the Indigo Girls' "No Way To Treat A Friend." I think Amy & Emily don't always play the exact same chords during the song, so I chose the dominant one. As for the rhythm, well, you're on your own. It would be too difficult for me to write it out. I have tried to show how many beats each chord receives in the introduction. If you spot any errors please let me know. Thanks and enjoy.

Following its recent expansion, Rebounderz boasts more than 21,000 square feet of bouncing throughout three trampoline surfaces. Both kids and adults leap, jump, and flip through the space, just bouncing around or playing high-velocity games of trampoline dodgeball. At the foam pit, guests test their aerobatic skills and before landing softly into cloud-like masses of foam. The facility also has a four-lane basketball slam dunk runner. These feats create a serious cardio workout, and guests in need of a break can breathe heavily toward the arcade where they can play games to win prizes or relax in the cafe with a smoothie or slice of pizza. For special occasions such as birthdays, parents can book one of four party rooms, including the basketball room replete with a basketball court, jump time, pizza, and a party assistant.
Twenty-eight armed soldiers swarm between two stories, ducking and weaving to avoid the sharp eyes of their opponents. Or so the story often unfolds during laser-tag sessions in FunTime America?s state-of-the-art laser-tag arena. Though it may be the most adrenaline-pumping portion of the family-friendly play place, it's but an introduction to the variety of attractions that unfolds before visitors. Guests helm bumper cars, take flight in helicopters, or race to scale the 20-foot climbing wall, whose foothold arrangements offer four difficulty levels from easy to easy for people with wings. Once playtime comes to a simmer, the video-game arcade really shines with its air-hockey tables and sit-down games that take imaginations on the road to their pixilated lands. After kids have tired themselves out, they can refuel at the USA Cafe with pizza, pretzels, and other fare to boost energy before another go around the center beckons.
For more than 30 years, Cousins Paintball has been at the forefront of the paintball industry, equipping hundreds of thousands of players for battle. In addition to fun and thrill, the business prioritizes safety, providing participants with full masks to protect eyes and faces, and specially designed paint is free of any harmful ingredients. With referees overseeing competitive battles, players are free to keep their eyes on the prize as they race to capture the flag or compete in special events.
The masterminds behind Keansburg Amusement Park, located just off the beach, oversee a park designed to turn a day out with the family during warm weather months into a mini vacation. By dotting the park with roller coasters, go-karts, arcades, and classic boardwalk fare, the owners seem to have realized their vision while also addressing the interests of different-aged groups. Families can glide around the park's classic carousel, and kids ride the colorful Jolly Caterpillar before he presumably morphs into a butterfly at closing time. Some of the park's newer attractions include a fleet of bumper cars and the Rocking Tug ride. With its more than 35 rides, the park has garnered accolades such as Best of New Jersey from the readers of NJ Monthly Magazine, as well as a 2011 Best of Monmouth County from the readers of Asbury Park Press.
Hole in One Miniature Golf helps families and friends escape daily stresses by careening them across a well-maintained 18-hole course filled with tumbling waterfalls, trickling streams, and other scenic obstacles. As an added bonus, the course features plenty of lighting, meaning rounds can extend well past when the sun goes down and stars begin to poke out of their sky shells. Away from the course, a snack bar dishes out thin-crust pizzas?a Hole in One specialty.
Claw machines, pinball, and row after row of redemption games blanket the confines of The Game Room. Once inside, visitors find themselves surrounded with the electronic lights and sounds of various games of chance, which spew countless tickets. At the prize counter, those tickets turn into rewards such as stuffed animals. The Game Room also hosts special events, including double-ticket days and skee-ball tournaments.
