Kentucky Kingdom (formerly known as Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom) is an amusement park in Louisville, Kentucky. The 63-acre (25 ha) park includes a collection of amusement rides and a water park named Hurricane Bay.[2][3] The park reopened to the public on May 24, 2014.[4]
Kentucky Kingdom opened on May 23, 1987, leasing 10 acres (4.0 ha) at the Kentucky Exposition Center property.[5] The park was started by out of state Texas investors as an extension of the Kentucky State Fair. One of the original rides was a roller coaster named Starchaser. The park also had other rides such as Bumper Cars and a log flume. However, the 10 acre park closed and filed for bankruptcy after only one season . Most of the contractors and vendors were unpaid. Most of the rides were auctioned off to other parks. Only a few rides stayed at the park. The park had four themed areas called "Carousel Plaza", "Old Louisville", "Kentucky Frontier" and "The Enchanted Forest" the kiddie area which would later become "King Louie's Playground" and then "Looney Tunes Movie Town".
The park remained closed through 1989 after the rights to operate it were purchased by Ed Hart and a group of investors. Hart's first step was paying the 227 vendors and contractors that were unpaid before. It reopened for the 1990 season with the new operators and management team.[5] Despite the Starchaser being sold it had remained on-site at the amusement park allowing Hart to purchase it back.[2] Additionally new rides were added including Tin Lizzies, The Enterprise, Whirling Dervish (later renamed "Breakdance"), and The Vampire. In 1992, the Kentucky Kingdom made a large expansion and opened the Hurricane Bay water park (which was later renamed Splashwater Kingdom).
Through the 1990- 1998 seasons, the park was said to be one of the fastest growing amusement parks in the United States at this time.
Ed Hart also put rides in the park over the years he was operating the park. Thunder Run (wooden roller coaster), The Quake, T2 (Terror to the Second Power), Twisted Twins (Twisted Sisters), Mile High Falls, Chang (stand up roller coaster), Hellevator (Drop Tower), Roller Skater Kids coaster, Chaos, and Kingdom Go Carts. These rides were added during 1990 to 1999 seasons.
At the end of 1997, the rights to operate Kentucky Kingdom were sold to Premier Parks for $64 million.[5] At the time, Kentucky Kingdom was one of the main tourism attractions for Louisville, receiving more visitors than Churchill Downs.[5] On April 1, 1998, Premier Parks purchased Six Flags from Time Warner, and as such, on June 21, 1998, Kentucky Kingdom became known as Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom. Six Flags then transformed King Louie's Playground into Looney Tunes Movie Town and added the Batman Stunt Show Spectacular in 1999.[5] It became the ninth amusement park to use the Six Flags name.[6]
In 1999, Six Flags planned to re-theme the one side of the park as "Gotham City", renaming and repainting several rides. Later that year, the idea was shelved and the rides retained their original names despite many of them having a different coat of paint. The Penguin's Blizzard River (later renamed Raging Rapids River Ride) was the only part of the plan that went into effect.[2]
During the Six Flags years, Six Flags would remove rides and not replace them with any other types of rides or attractions. Examples of this can be seen with the removal of the Rainbow in 2008, The Top Elminator Dragsters which had been SBNO since 2005, and the number of other rides removed to other Six Flags parks.
In 2002, the Twisted Sisters roller coaster was forced to be renamed to Twisted Twins upon a threat of a lawsuit from the band Twisted Sister.[2] Before the opening of the 2007 season, Hurricane Bay was rebranded as Splashwater Kingdom. It was called Hurricane Bay from 1992-2007 and then Splashwater Kingdom from 2007-2010. According to current plans for the future, it will return to the name Hurricane Bay when the park reopens.[citation needed]
On September 21, 2009, Kentucky Kingdom confirmed that the park's main attraction Chang was being removed for the addition of Bonzai Beach, a new water park region that has a separate theme from the existing Splashwater Kingdom.[7]
Amid a corporate bankruptcy, on February 4, 2010, Six Flags announced the park would cease operations immediately due to the rejection of an amended lease by the Kentucky State Fair Board.[8] This left the fair board and Six Flags to negotiate the ownership of rides and attractions. On July 25, 2010, this dispute was settled with Six Flags receiving a ride of their choice (Road Runner Express), and $2.8 million in lease related payments owed by Six Flags were forgiven, in exchange for Six Flags' property rights which included the offices, furniture, fixtures and equipment relating to the park, as well as all intellectual property. The Kentucky State Fair Board also used $2.35 million from Ed Hart to purchase Six Flags' 20-acre (8.1 ha) stake in the park. Six Flags removed all of the Looney Tunes and Batman related content from the park, along with inner tubes and some ride parts for its other parks.
Six Flags added rides during its 10-year operation of the park. These rides were Road Runner Express, Greezed Lightnin' (shuttle launch coaster), Sky Coaster, Sling Shot, Tornado (water ride), Deluge (water roller coaster) and Mega Wedgie (water bowl).
In May 2010, the former operator of Kentucky Kingdom, Ed Hart, along with several other investors formed the Kentucky Kingdom Redevelopment Company. Their aim was to reopen the park by Memorial Day Weekend the year after funding and their plans were approved.[9][10][11] After 16 months trying to get funding approved,[12][13][14] the Kentucky Kingdom Redevelopment Company announced on September 30, 2011, that the fair board had ended negotiations and that their company would no longer take part in re-opening the park.[15] On November 4, 2011, Ed Hart sued the state of Kentucky in an attempt to recoup $1.4 million that he claimed had been spent as part of the failed effort to reopen the amusement park.[16]
On January 16, 2012, the owners of Holiday World & Splashin' Safari in Santa Claus, Indiana announced they were involved in talks about the future of Kentucky Kingdom. Their media release stated they were in a fact-finding stage and that they hadn't made any decisions about whether to move forward in pursuing an opportunity to run the theme park.[17] On February 7, 2012, four members of the Koch family, who also own Holiday World & Splashin' Safari, formed a new company, Bluegrass Boardwalk, Incorporated, to negotiate a lease agreement with the Kentucky State Fair Board and to apply for economic development incentives from the Commonwealth of Kentucky.[18] On February 23, 2012, the Kentucky Fair Board approved a lease agreement for the former Kentucky Kingdom property to the Koch family. It was announced that Kentucky Kingdom would be renamed Bluegrass Boardwalk and would reopen on May 11, 2013 and employ 25 full-time and 800 seasonal workers. However, later that month the plans began to unravel.[19] On May 30, 2012, it was confirmed that the park would not reopen in 2013.[20] On June 15, 2012, it was announced that the Koch family would not reopen the park at all, with Bluegrass Boardwalk CEO Natalie Koch stating that "many layers of governmental regulations and stipulations ultimately caused them to withdraw."[21]
On August 15, 2012, it was announced that Ed Hart and the Kentucky Kingdom Redevelopment Company would begin work to reopen the park in 2014. On October 22, 2012, Hart said the company planned to invest $120 million, using $50 million to reopen the park and investing another $70 million over the term of the lease.[22] All rides except Greezed Lightnin' were expected to reopen. The company also planned to add a $15 million roller coaster, install three new rides, and double the size of the "Hurricane Bay" water park.[22] The planned expansion would be the largest in the park's history.[23]
In January 2013, the Kentucky Fair Board granted preliminary approval for a lease, and the Kentucky Tourism Development Finance Authority (KTDFA) approved government incentives in support of reopening the park, placing Ed Hart and his investors in charge of park operations.[24][25] The scheduled opening date was announced as May 24, 2014.[4] On March 25, 2013, Hart specified that it would take more money than previously anticipated to rebuild and expand the park.[26][26] The investment plan previously approved under the terms of the lease consisted of $20 million in partner equity and $25 million in borrowed money. The city planned to provide subsidies and tax incentives up to $200,000 per year for the first five years and $100,000 per year for following five years.[26] Hart was able to secure $28.5 million in financing, and proprietors would be under contract obligation to invest at least $1 million per year on park upgrades.[26] On April 10, 2013, the KTDFA approved up to $10 Million dollars in sales tax rebates over the next 10 years for Kentucky Kingdom.[27]
Construction began in July 2013.[28] The park added three new children's rides in King Louie's Playhouse near the front of the park, a new $7 million roller coaster called "Lightning Run", a new drop tower named "FearFall", a new flat ride named Professor John's Flying Machines and several new attractions in the Hurricane Bay Water Park.[29] Kentucky Kingdom and Hurricane Bay reopened on May 24, 2014.
The reopening was a success, after the first month Kentucky Kingdom sold over 100,000 season passes. Kentucky Kingdom plans to open a renovated amphitheater and roller coaster T-3 in 2015.[30] On September 25, 2014, Cyclos and Skycatcher were announced for 2015, along with three refurbished attractions, Enterprise, Raging Rapids River Ride, and T3 (formally known as T2).

Q. Who is Mr. Smarty Plants?
A: There are those who suspect Wildflower Center volunteers are the culpable and capable culprits. Yet, others think staff members play some, albeit small, role. You can torture us with your plant questions, but we will never reveal the Green Guru's secret identity.
Did you know you can access the Native Plant Information Network with your web-enabled smartphone?

From: Birmigham, AL
Region: Southeast
Topic: Non-Natives, Plant Identification
Title: Plant identification
Answered by: Nan Hampton
Dear Mr Smarty Pants.I hope you can help to save my sanity! I am a true believer in using native plantings, having a yard that is 99% native. I hope that fact provides me a little extra credit toward getting this probably non-native id question answered.for a neighbor who has asked me to help. She has a patch of about 13 of these plants growing in moist soil next to her foundation. We live in Birmingham, AL. Each plant is about 3-5 foot tall with a single stem arising from the ground. The leaves are huge (about 10 inches long and 8 inches wide)heart-shaped and toothed. Each has a solitary, umbrel shaped, deep purple flower on top. I picked a leaf to bring it in for closer inspection and it smells awful, like skunk cabbage. The leaves are hairy with the most obvious (pointy) hairs on the underside veins. The leaves are opposite one another along the main stem of the plant. The stem is greenish-purple. There are 2 small buds just opposite to where each leaf emerges from the main stem. The purple coloring runs into the leaf stems. Each leaf stem being about 4 inches long. The purple color also runs up into into the first 30% or so of the veins on the top of each leaf. Three main veins come out of the leaf stem into the leaf proper. The center vein goes all the way to the pointed tip of the heart-shaped leaf. The other 2 veins goes off to each side but do not terminate on the edge. There are additional veins running off the central middle vein. Any plant come to mind?ANSWER:
Mr. Smarty Plants applauds your dedication to native plants and your kindness towards your neighbor; but, unfortunately, that still doesn't make us experts in identifying non-native plants. Our expertise is in plants native to North American and your description, although very detailed, doesn't bring any plant to mind. I suggest that you take photographs of the plant in question and submit them to the UBC Botanical Garden's Plant Identification Forum. They do an excellent job with non-native plants.

2009 Nissan Titan
Choose Nissan Titan Style:
C/D Overview:
Now in its fifth year of production, Nissan's first full-size pickup changes little for '09 and has been upstaged by newer entries from the other four big players in this game. Still, the Titan's aluminum V-8 delivers plenty of punch, towing performance is strong, and the chassis is solid.
Base Price: $26,950 - $40,150
Big load ratings, strong work ethic, roomy rear seating, attractive pricing.
Lacks interior refinement, ride quality is excessively truckish, no V-6 engine option.
What's New
Introduced for 2004; revised trims and content, Max Utility package is new.
Behind The Wheel
Solid chassis and V-8 muscle make this a solid work truck with surprising agility, but ride and basso exhaust note may not suit everyone.

The Waha Oil Company has achieved an oil and gas discovery with its new field wildcat well drilled in Libya's Sirte Basin to a total depth of 9,227 ft (2,812 meters).
The National Oil Corporation (NOC) of Libya reported today that the discovery well 6Q1-59 was drilled in Block 105/59 approximately 80 km southeast of Marada.
The initial production test from Lidam and Lower Beda established flow from the Lidam Formation of 1,080 b/d of 41-degree API oil with 860,000 cf/d of natural gas from a net payzone of 82 ft within the tested interval of 8,960 to 9,050. From the Lower Beda Formation, the flow was established at 1,704 b/d of 36-degree API oil from a 61-ft payzone within the tested interval 6,850 to 6,911 ft. The choke was 32/64-inch in both. Waha Oil Company is owned by the National Oil Corporation in a joint venture with ConocoPhillips, Marathon Oil, and Amerada Hess. The partnership resumed operations in 2006 after having suspended operations in 1986 when it was known as Oasis Oil Company. ConocoPhillips and Marathon each hold 16.33% interest in Waha Oil Company and Hess has 8.17%. The remaining 59.17% interest is held by NOC.

Lillian Axe have announced the departure of bassist Eric Morris, who's bowed out "with a heavy heart."
He insists the relationship with his former colleagues remains as strong as ever, as they begin work with his replacement, Chris Brown, who'll make his debut appearance in New Orleans this weekend.
Morris says: "I had such a great time and will always cherish the experiences, from touring with Alice Cooper to actually getting on that plane to Europe and everything in between.
"This was a very difficult decision for me. I've recently had some life-changing events that have made me rethink some of my personal priorities. I have to get my own house in order, and I felt it wouldn't be fair to limit the growth of Lillian Axe due to my restricted availability."
Guitarist Steve Blaze says: "Eric is my brother first and a bandmate second. He's been with me for many years and is one of the sweetest souls I have ever met. His journey in life is taking a different turn.
"He will still be involved behind the scenes with the organisation, and I'm sure he will have a lot of input as we move forward. Eric will be present at the Tippitina's show Saturday night and will play a few songs with us, as we welcome Chris Brown to the family. Chris has been a longtime fan and is an amazing talent in his own right."
Morris first appeared on the Louisiana band's 2007 album Waters Rising and was involved in three further studio albums and an acoustic record.

'Amazing Spider-Man 2' Viral Site Teases Crime Mob Trouble
Forget the Sinister Six -- will Spidey have to deal with entire crime families in his next movie?
We're still months ahead of the release of The Amazing Spider-Man 2, but Sony's Daily Bugle Tumblr promo site continues to spin out its own web of narrative about criminal activity in New York City.
The latest post, attributed to Frederick Foswell -- a name that may be familiar to Spider-Fans of a certain age -- reports that "Russian mob activity [is] at an all-time high in the city," with crime spiking across all five boroughs. Tellingly, it notes that "more crime families have become involved in high-tech crimes such as the theft of microchips, processors, experimental metal alloys, and advanced weaponry."
STORY: 'The Amazing Spider-Man 2' Trailer: Electro Shocks New York (Video)
Whether or not this report is an introduction to the world of next year's second Marc Webb-helmed installment of the Marvel superhero movie franchise is unclear; while a criminal is quoted in the story as saying that "everything has a price. Including the head of so-called superheroes," it's possible that this story is laying groundwork not for Amazing Spider-Man 2, but the two spin-off movies Sony is working on for the franchise, both of which center around villains: Venom and Sinister Six.
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is released May 2, 2014. Presumably, we'll learn if Russian crime families figure into its plot closer to that time.

TULSA – Oklahoma stands on the cusp of a dynamic new economic platform: development of unmanned aerial vehicles.
The aerospace sector already provides the state an impressive economic engine, as Gov. Mary Fallin and Secretary of Commerce and Tourism Dave Lopez said Tuesday during the Oklahoma Aerospace Alliance's 2011 Oklahoma Aerospace Summit and Expo. The sector's 500 related companies generate $12 billion of industrial output annually, their 150,000 workers drawing a $5 billion payroll.
But the startup UAV sector – also known as unmanned aerial systems, or UAS – already promises to make a sizable addition. In just five years this cottage industry, rising from obscurity to global prominence through the U.S. military's Middle East war applications, has already generated $323 million in orders through Ponca City's Oklahoma State University Multispectral Laboratories.
"This particular industry is probably the most dynamic growth area in aerospace right now," said James Grimsley, president and CEO of Norman-based Design Intelligence, whose company "stumbled" into UAV development four years ago.
Stephen McKeever, Oklahoma's secretary for science and technology, expects these UAVs to gain a sizable support platform through initiatives launched by Fallin supporting seven different facilities across the state. He will head the governor's UAS advisory council to help groom this budding industry.
"We're at the cusp of exponential growth," McKeever said while moderating an afternoon summit panel on aerospace innovation and technology. "Truly exponential growth will happen when U.S. airspace is opened to UAVs."
With military and surveillance applications becoming ever more apparent, Grimsley said analysts continue to upgrade this new sector's potential annual sales.
"Originally they were estimated at $60 billion over the next decade," he said. "Now they're estimated to reach $94 billion over the next decade."
And that's with few commercial applications yet identified. Grimsley and McKeever expect a wide plethora to follow once Congress agrees to widespread usage of the bird-sized vehicles.
"We don't know yet what we can do with a tool we've never had before," said McKeever.
This marks just one area where Oklahoma stands ready to capitalize on aerospace technology advances.
Veracity Technology Solutions President Gary Hensley told of breakthroughs his Broken Arrow-based company has scored in ultrasonic 3-D imaging and "eddy current" techniques to help aerospace parts manufacturers maximize the design life of their products. Their 128-element linear array system gained the firm the 2010 MRO (maintenance, repair and operations) of the Year Award from Aviation Week magazine.
Tim Reynolds, executive vice president and chief operating officer of Triton Scientific, told of successes the OSU laboratory's achieved in remote sensor detection, cyberspace detection systems, U.S. Special Operations Command contracts and other areas. He spoke with particular enthusiasm about a new battery that could provide a particularly strong boost to the solar and wind power sectors.
While Rocky Mountain Power holds manufacturing rights, Reynolds said a development agreement promises to bring up to 3,000 of the battery's production jobs to Oklahoma.
"It is game-changing technology," he said.
All of these programs have helped the self-funded Ponca City lab grow from three people to 85 since its 2006 start, its annual revenues now anticipated at $30 million.
"We're working to add 20 percent to the research and development jobs in the state," he said. "We're not quite there yet."
To keep this momentum growing, McKeever said Oklahoma must improve its education system as well as its public and private funding mechanisms.
But he took heart in the public leadership Fallin and others have given these developments.
"The leadership in this state is amazing," said Grimsley. "We have literally in the last three or four years created an industry from nothing. Now it's quickly growing. We've caught the attention of all of the world."

Backlink building is the system of creating significant, links for your web site, and is generally known as among the most essential internet marketing strategy still used up to these days. Despite the new algorithm changes done by the big G(Google), back linking is still proven to be a handy means of enhancing the position of a web site in the SERP (search results pages).
...moreIf you've heard about the term "affiliate marketing", then the two business leaders, ClickBank and PayDotCom, might ring a bell to you. These two prominent businesses in the affiliate marketing arena have provided affiliate marketers the opportunity to showcase the merchandise of other people for some time already and be able to receive commission after. Nevertheless, as the realm of affiliate marketing grows, entrepreneurs found themselves in the need for an affiliate network that offers instant commissions the moment they've successfully made a sale.

So, I like to think I'm fairly unshockable in a kind of 'seen it all before' sort of way. Lada Gaga's meat dress prompted nothing more that a faint wonder if it was going to be casseroled afterwards, Miley's twerking gave me nothing more than a twinge of indigestion, I'm not sure if it's because I'm so jaded nothing actually affects me, or because there hasn't really been anything truly original since David Bowie looked all androgynous and everyone fancied him.
Anyway, this may have all changed as Rick Owens new menswear collection featured a selection of po face cheekboned Adonis-like creatures wearing what I can only describe as penis ponchos. Diaphonous and drapey, the creations were elevated in their sartorial sauciness by a carefully placed hole in the middle of the garment. I'm afraid the only word for it is a knob hole, Well, that's two words, but you get me, right.
Bell-ends a swaying, these picture perfect specimens brought a whole new dimension to the slightly monotonous world of menswear collections. Not sure if they'll catch on in the real world, but you know how fashion trickles down. Oops, wrong expression! Coming to a pop up store soon. Hmmmm.

Microsoft Could Unveil 'Windows TV' at CES: Report
Microsoft Could Unveil 'Windows TV' at CES: Report
Nicholas Kolakowski
Posted 2011-01-04
Microsoft is reportedly readying a Web-connected television at the Consumer Electronics Show, aiming to compete against Apple TV and Google TV.
Microsoft could use this week's Consumer Electronics Show to introduce a connected-television offering that would compete with Google TV and Apple TV. "Microsoft's going to make a splash in this market with a stripped-down version of Windows tailored for set-top boxes and connected TVs," Brier Dudley, a columnist with
The Seattle Times
predicted in a Jan. 2 article widely circulated across the Web
. "The software is a version of its embedded device software, overlaid with the Windows Media Center interface, with media streaming and remote-control capabilities."
Given Microsoft's traditional position of a "fast follower"-or a company that moves to exploit trends once they emerge in the marketplace-it would be unsurprising if the company uses CES to issue a TV challenge to Google and Apple. In December,
Apple reported it had sold 1 million Apple TV units in the device's first two-and-a-half months of release
, demonstrating the viability of a box that allows users to watch content ported from the cloud. And Google's decision to postpone the rollout of Google TV sets and companion boxes, originally set for CES, could create a suitable vacuum in which Microsoft could push "Windows TV."
Dudley referred to Microsoft's $200 device as "a stripped-down version of Windows tailored for set-top boxes and connected TVs," running Windows Media Center. If this report proves true, the question will be how Microsoft chooses to walk the line between computer and traditional television. Conceivably, the company could choose to hew closely to the Apple TV model, which offers streaming rentals, including 99-cent TV shows and $4.99 HD movies the same day the latter appear on DVD. "They don't want a computer on their TV,"
Apple CEO Steve Jobs told the audience during Apple TV's September unveiling
, referring to consumers. "This is a hard one for people to understand." Features such as syncing between a television and secondary devices-smartphone or laptop-he continued, were "too complicated" for most users.
Jobs' comments seemed aimed at Google TV, which offers the ability to both surf the Web and tune into traditional TV broadcasts. Sony televisions with Google TV retail for between $600 and $1,400, and an offering from Logitech hit stores with a $300 price. Nevertheless, early critics complained that the system's user interface had significant kinks,
and a Dec. 20 article in
The New York Times
suggested that Google had asked partners Toshiba, Sharp and LG to delay their new Google TV units for further refinement. Google might also use the time to negotiate with the major television networks, which blocked Google TV from accessing their Websites. Apple is also wrestling with some of those networks over the right to content. Reports suggest that Microsoft will also use CES to unveil
a new line of Windows-based tablets
, along with a version of Windows leveraging ARM Holdings technology. But given how the market for connected television is expected to only increase in coming years, a Windows TV could have just as sizable an impact on the marketplace as any other Microsoft product making its debut.

Jac L'Etoile has always been haunted by her past, her memories infused with the exotic scents that surrounded her childhood as the heir to a storied French perfume company. In order to flee the pain of those remembrances--and of her mother's suicide--she moved to America. Now, fourteen years later she and her brother have inherited the company. But when Robbie hints at an earth-shattering discovery in the family archives and then suddenly goes missing--leaving a dead body in his wake--Jac is plunged into a world she thought she'd left behind.
Back in Paris to investigate her brother's disappearance, Jac becomes haunted by the legend the House of L'Etoile has been espousing since 1799. Is there indeed a scent that can unlock the mystery of reincarnation?
"The Book of Lost Fragrances" fuses history, passion, and suspense, moving from Cleopatra's Egypt and the terrors of revolutionary France to Tibet's battle with China and the glamour of modern-day Paris. Jac's quest for an ancient perfume someone is willing to kill for becomes the key to understanding her own troubled past.

"I Know What to Do" is not merely tender declaration of affection; it's a compelling, investigative look at biology and reproduction from a Darwinian standpoint, as well as a Hobbesian treatise on the equality of all humanity. "When she's taking off my pants I know what to do," sings Erik Gage, proclaiming that love is no elitist activity or learned affectation—that all persons shall know, when the time presents itself, precisely what they need to do with their junk.
A little bit more about the shoot, as described on the ITW site: "The night before, Rikky puked in the Jack in the Box parking lot and then washed his wallet inside his pants at 5 AM. He showed up late and insisted they do no more than two takes per song. It was the first sunny Saturday in Portland for like six months, and we all got day-stoned."
The only problem I have with this video is that they only play one song and it's over in like a minute.

Thanks for the great update SD Missing Uma, but it's sweet of you to do the update.
Hmm, this twist is expected by all of us knowing Ekta. Santu out in the streets, hmm, she better straighten up and get her POA and march in the M-mansion and claim her rights. She should say, DM is dead according to DM and now I have the rights Then I will totally applaud her courage and bravery.
Kaddu deserves the rat, Sandeep. He is after her money and property from the M clan. Shanky escaped just in time. Hope he does come and see Santu and help his friend in need.

Sophomore Lindsay Moramarco connected for her third goal of the season in a 6-3 loss at No. 20 Villanova. |
Oct. 10, 2007
Washington, D.C. - The Georgetown University field hockey team pulled within one goal, but it was not enough as No. 20 Villanova tallied two goals in a two-minute span in the second half to win the game, 6-3. The Hoyas drop to 2-11 overall on the season and remain winless in BIG EAST Conference action. The Wildcats improve to 10-3 with a 3-1 slate in league action.
As Wildcats led, 5-2, forward Micaela O'Toole (Arlington, Va./St. Stephen's & St. Agnes) continued her successful freshman season finding the back of the cage for the fourth time this season as she took a shot from the right side on an unassisted breakaway. VU's Ally Smith gave the Wildcats the three-goal cushion when she scored with less than five minutes in regulation.
The Hoyas pulled within one goal when sophomore Lindsay Moramarco (Andover, Mass./Phillips Academy) tallied her third goal of the season on a dish from junior Maggie Farrand (Baltimore, Md./Bryn Mawr) as the Hoyas trailed, 3-2. Two Wildcat goals within one minute gave Villanova a 5-2 lead, prompting a Georgetown timeout.
Farrand connected on a penalty corner as she was the first to put the Hoyas on the board just before the break. Sophomore Willemijn Wijsman (Hilversum, The Netherlands/International School Hilversum) flicked the corner with senior Lauren Sheets (Lutherville, Md./Garrison Forest) on the setup. Prior to the goal, Villanova held a comfortable 3-0 lead as three different Wildcats scored goals in the first frame.
Georgetown goalkeeper Deirdre Crovo (Millersville, Md./Severna Park) tallied seven saves on the day and allowed six goals as she played the entire game.
Villanova's Maura McCormick spent 70 minutes in goal tallying four saves and allowing three goals.
Georgetown returns to action on Sunday, October 14 when they travel to Easton, Pa. to take on Lafayette at 1 p.m. The Hoyas trail 2-1 in the all-time series against Leopards but won a 2-1 home decision during the 2006 campaign.

AFL prepares for start of season amid labor uncertainty
Published March 12, 2012, Page 8
The AFL countered with a plan to use replacement players should the unionized AFL players decide to sit out. As of press time, no deal had been reached.
"The players have a right to a work stoppage and the owners have a right to hire replacement players," said AFL Commissioner Jerry Kurz. "I hope it does not come to that, but we will not miss a game."
AFL Players Association Executive Director Ivan Soto did not return calls for comment.
The labor strife comes as the AFL begins its season with 17 teams and one new market in San Antonio. The AFL sold its Tulsa franchise to a group led by Jason Lohe of Revolutionary Sports and Game Plan Wealth, who relocated the team to San Antonio. The new team will play in the Alamodome.
The AFL this offseason also shuttered its Dallas franchise and saw Cleveland Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert's Cavaliers Holdings take ownership of the Cleveland Gladiators team.
Kurz is hopeful that the new owners will help the league, which last year averaged 8,363 fans per game, grow.
"We are still moving forward," Kurz said. "We have coined this year the year of the fan after people questioned us after we came out of bankruptcy."
The league ceased operations in 2009 and was relaunched in 2010 after filing for bankruptcy. The AFL was scheduled to begin its 2012 season on March 9, with each of the 17 franchises playing an 18-game schedule.
The NFL Network will televise an AFL game every Friday night throughout the league's regular season. The NFL Network will also air playoff games and the ArenaBowl championship game.
The AFL this offseason also added a new league sponsor in wireless service provider Net10. The company joins the National Guard, Russell Athletic, Spalding and Napa Auto Parts as AFL league partners.

In 1983 WCKT metamorphosed into WSVN. Six years later, when the station lost its NBC link and became a FOX affiliate, its dizzying ascent as the prime purveyor of newsamuse began. The journalistic Dr. Frankenstein in charge of its transformation: bigwig Joel Cheatwood. Making the staid nightly broadcast entertaining was his mission.
The first step: constructing the Newsplex, a high-tech temple dedicated to frenzied information gathering. The capper was figuring out the formula: steady diet of crime, violence, and gossipy stories dished out at a breakneck pace. The plan succeeded wildly and engendered copycatting by independent stations all over the nation.
Cheatwood left town in 1997, but his diabolical legacy remains. As newscasts send viewers' collective blood pressure skyrocketing, few realize that a little piece of Heaven (aside from changing the channel) is available to them. Seven Heaven to be exact. Last week the Louis Wolfson II Media History Center launched a series of screenings titled Seven Heaven, highlighting Channel 7's former incarnation. "Once upon a time things were different, just in terms of the way television news was covered," says Steven Davidson, the center's director, citing major distinctions in delivery, graphics, pacing, and style.
Among the programs already shown in prevideotape kinescope format: a retrospective of President Kennedy's life and reaction to news of his death broadcast on the day he was assassinated in 1963; and a reel featuring the station's work from the mid-Sixties compiled to impress the prestigious Peabody Awards committee. This Thursday a presentation celebrates the station's ten-year anniversary on the air in 1966 with local and international news stories from the decade. A series of year-end specials documenting events from 1963 through 1965 also will unspool. Tuesday offers a look back at the destructive 1961 Hurricane Donna and a variety of reports about Cuba, including footage of Castro and company parading through Havana after the fall of Batista and a live broadcast of the arrival of flight 422 that shuttled Bay of Pigs prisoners back to Miami in 1962.
Ditzy Sally Fitz is long gone. Sultan of smarm Rick Sanchez has decamped to MSNBC's afternoon news. Deco Drive loses its punch daily. Perhaps one day we'll look back fondly at the fevered style of news reporting in all its flash and splash furnished by our friends at WSVN in Seven Heaven, the Sequel. Perhaps one day Hell will freeze over.

Country Living / Off the Grid
> Working off the grid
I've always dreamed of a OTG type lifestyle, but being a geek...I'm sure i'd never be completely off
Lately though i've been having more and more dreams of living in a smaller home and just simplyfing *Everything* down to bare essentials.
I think the biggest reason this is haunting me is right now my DH works as a pre-press graphics artist and unfortunately doesn't make anywhere NEAR the average salary for that type of job. his takehome pay is about 400/wk
This means I absolutely need to work. Our mortgage is very low, and our house isn't anything fancy, but that alone is well over half DH's income.
I end up working in my field, which means 80-100wks sometimes, and I'm getting paid less than HALF industry standard for my job.
I'm working on getting a new one, but part of me wishes I could just say forget it and stay home. I've been racking my brain for a way (like doing daycare AND working on computers over the weekend) because right now, I see my kiddo about 10hrs a week
And we really want to expand our family again, soon.
My DH promised me we would sell and move in 5yrs (4 more now) to another state. I can't STAND this heat much longer.
I keep thinking maybe a place like I grew up, a small town....get some chickens..ect.
The hardest part of this senario is money though
If we move into a area cheap enough to live on DH's current income, he wouldn't be able to find a job (pre-press is kinda specialized)
If we move to a area that'll have a job in that area for him, it'll be MORE expensive!!
DH isn't even sure if he wants to be in pre-press much longer, but I cannot fathom him working outdoors or anything that would be easy to get work in a smaller town. (Dh is a big burly guy, but has knee/leg/shoulder problems, overweight, asthma, eczema, severe allergies...ect)
Does anyone else have a DH who works? where??
I grew up with 2 types of providers. My dad was in computers as well, and my stepdad worked outdoors at a grainery.
I know we can't live in a small town with option #1 (which is where we are now) and I can't fathom my DH doing option #2.... *sigh*
Wabi Sabi
Would your DH be interested in doing freelance graphic design? It could take a while to get started-up, but once he got a good client base he could work from virtually *anywhere.*
Unfortunately thats one of the big problems with trying to work towards me staying home.
He doesn't like his current job. He never wanted to do "graphics" persay, but did one of those quickie 2yr courses on it (he was #1 in his class though!)
But he can't draw, can't do anything imaginative graphics-wise.
He's basically good at taking other ppls work and making sure it's clean, and prints right. hence the pre-press.
I want him to find a job working for a DnD book publisher, or gaming book/mag publisher since he LOVES vidiot games and DnD...
He finds some reason why he "cant"
He hates his job and they treat him like crud and pay him poorly (average prepress = 50k entry level, he makes 30. ) but he won't even LOOK!!
He doesn't know what he wants, just what he doesn't want
I'm working on building up some side-clientele for networking/pc (what I do) but unfortunately that can't be done remotely for the most part. But it does make me feel somewhat better that I can continue to work with computers a little even when we move...I'd be happy bringing in a little extra cash and doing simple pc repair and such
It's very frustrating to have a DH who is opposite of you in the work-manner. He wants a single job for 50yrs. Me, I get a job and 6m - 12m in I quit because i've grown all I can and i'm ready for a new challenge.
I also have this habit of getting thrown in WAAAYYY over my head, and later training other ppl who have been doing it for years
I catch on quick. hehe.
So no, he doesn't do "graphics" he "can't".
Graphic design definitely isn't a great field to be in at the moment. I got my degree in it last August, and the job market is incredibly flooded in the graphics area. Nearly everyone knows someone who can make a website and/or make graphics, so why would they pay more for someone who has a degree in it when they can get even high school kids to do it for cheap? My FIL teaches, and two of his 8th grade students run a webdesign business. *sigh* So much for that degree I got to make "good" money...
how about DH retraining for something he would enjoy more? it sounds like he's a fast learner too... if he had the motivation to get a concrete base for something he would enjoy doing for the rest of his life that WOULD fit your new lifestyle, that might help. how about something like medical transcription that he could do from home, or maybe home inspector (my uncle made a killing in that business)
Change what isn't making you happy in life. There is no time like the present to start a change. If you aren't happy living in the area where you live, sell your house now, before the bubble pops.
