If It All Goes Right / If It All Goes Wrong
If It All Goes Wrong: 2018
Or even if it all goes a little wrong

Somewhere hidden in the bowels of my childhood home lie 10 or 15 homemade video cassette tapes. Some of them are taped over with 90's cartoons, and some of them are taped over with old Seattle sports games that my dad didn't want to miss when he was working until 11 PM on a Tuesday. The rest are mostly film of family members long since gone. I could look at them and try to squint and place a name to each face, but I'd probably fail. If these people are family but I don't know who they are, am I still supposed to feel something?
There's one tape that I can clearly remember. It's of me and my dad in 1997. We go to my first Mariners game together. I'm three years old. Randy Johnson starts the game. Ken Griffey Jr. bats third and hits a home run in the first inning. I'm three, and I don't know who these people are. Suddenly, it's the third inning, and I want to leave. The Mariners aren't losing, I just want to go because I don't have an attention span, because I'm three.
That was over 20 years ago, and the Mariners are further away from winning a championship now than they were then. I didn't really have much time to fall in love with Randy and Griffey, but they're long gone. Everyone I had a chance to fall in love with will be soon be gone too.
From Opening Day, to mid-May, to the All Star break, the antithesis of of the last 17 years felt possible. Every win fed the irrational optimism, and every loss was soothed by the million dollar smiles of Robinson Cano, Dee Gordon, and Jean Segura. The Fangraphs playoff odds hovered around 30% for the entire first half, and it was so easy to believe. I just wanted it to be true so badly.
Wanting something doesn't make it true. How many times do we have to learn this lesson? A million dollar smile doesn't replace a $20 million bat. Dee Gordon was fine. As good as we could have hoped, even. But the Astros were always going to be the Astros. I love Jean Segura to the moon and back, but Carlos Correa is just... better. I still can't believe that Robinson Cano chose the Mariners, but Jose Altuve is an MVP, and Cano is a declining former All Star.
It turns out that Lance Lynn and Fernando Rodney are good pitchers, and Rodney is again going to be shooting arrows in the playoffs. If the Mariners had signed Lynn, maybe I wouldn't be writing this. If my dad hadn't taken me to that stupid game, maybe I wouldn't have ever become a fan of this team.
There wasn't a catastrophic injury. There wasn't a huge collapse. The odds just went down, one percent at a time, until it was late August and suddenly the team that had seemed so promising was looking at a five percent chance of making the playoffs. The smiles just shrank a little bit at a time, and the boisterous antics became a little less frequent.
Isn't escapism supposed to be fun?
Now, instead of going to baseball games, evenings out will be spent at a bar. Maybe talking about the latest injustice that's happened at work, or maybe talking about the dead-end someone from high school is stuck in. Maybe every couple of weeks, we'll have a few shots, trying to reclaim the reckless fun that drinking held when we were ten years younger. Except now I'm incapable of justifying the hangover, let alone glorifying it.
Eventually, those winter evenings will turn back into spring evenings, and we'll talk about baseball again. But it'll be baseball without Nelson Cruz. It'll be baseball with the aching knowledge that prime Félix really is gone, and that the Mariners really are screwed for another five years at least.
In 10 years, I'd like to take my three year old child to a baseball game, but who am I doing that for? Am I doing it for them, wanting to pass along my love of a game that I really do love? Or am I doing it for me, to convince myself that it's normal to emotionally invest in something that's so volatile, into something that has lows as gaping as the highs are ephemeral?
Will they look back wistfully at their own tapes in 30 years, at players they were too young to fall in love with? Will they do so having watched as players they did have the chance to love tried again, and failed again? Will they finally get a chance to see a team that manages to put it together? And if they do, will my dad still be alive to see it?
Will I?

Andrew Sardanis gave his life to Zambia, and Zambia its soul to him
By Sishuwa Sishuwa,
Because of our close friendship, Andrew Sardanis many times asked me to speak at his funeral. I always gave the same response: that I would do so provided the need to do so was delayed as long as possible.
On 28 February 2021, 13 days before what would have been his 90th birthday, Danae, his wife since 25 March 1962, informed me tearfully that 'Andrew is gone'.
If my conviction that the relevance of death lies in its impact on those who live is correct, then we have much to learn from his long and eventful life. It represented, in my view, many things that a nation requires to succeed. These include our understanding of what being a 'Zambian' truly means, of the importance of public service, of the possibilities for home-grown African business, of investment in art, research and scholarship, and of family and friendship. These five general points and themes illuminate Sardanis's life and the society in which he lived and helped to shape.
A talented immigrant who gave his life to Zambia
Although he was not born a Zambian, Sardanis became one and gave his life to the country. In turn, the country embraced and gave itself to him. Zambia is lucky to have had him among its citizens. Born in Cyprus on 13 March 1931, Sardanis immigrated to Zambia inOctober 1950, aged 19. He was one of tens of thousands of white immigrants who arrived in the then Northern Rhodesia before and after the Second World War. Yet, he was not like many of the others. By this, I mean the many whites who dedicated their lives to self-enrichment or quietly making a fortune out of the country's riches, unconcerned about the injustices around them.
Sardanis chose a different path. He forged strong ties and collaborative relationships in the places he settled. He spent his first years in Zambia in Chingola working for his brother-in-law in a transport company. He threw himself vigorously into the development of the business and expanded into trading, opening stores in Chingola on the Copperbelt and Kabompo in the North-Western Province. By the end of the 1950s, he owned and operated North Western Trading and Mwaiseni stores. At a time when the colour bar was the order of the day, Sardanis trained and advanced Zambians in his businesses, treating them as partners and fellow shareholders. His businesses were run entirely by Zambian staff. Black people could freely enter and leave his many shops, a departure from the widespread practice of the time that required them to buy goods through tiny shop windows.
As did a few other white immigrants such as Simon Zukas and James Skinner, Sardanis also made himself useful to the causes that catalysed the 1950s and early 1960s – the struggle for independence and racial equality. In the 1962 elections, for example, he stood as a parliamentary candidate for Kabompo constituency on the ticket of the United National Independence Party (UNIP), the main nationalist political organisation under the leadership of Kenneth Kaunda. What is important here is that he made a conscious choice, one which entailed considerable personal sacrifice to turn his back on the entrenched privileges he could have accessed using his membership to the white community to fight for causes that he believed were right and just.
By joining the anti-colonial movement, he also risked the censure of the white settler community he was expected to belong to, but such was his commitment to the pursuit of freedom and justice that he did not mind being regarded as an outcast among their ranks. As he had shown already, Sardanis was an astute businessman. Driven by high copper prices on the international market, Zambia's economy was booming in the 1950s. If he had wanted, he could have made his money as a successful businessman and returned to Cyprus, or moved to South Africa, Southern Rhodesia (the colonial name for Zimbabwe) or the United Kingdom to settle and play golf. That is what many in the 1950s did. He did not. His example challenges us to understand people within their peculiar individual circumstances and characteristics rather than treating them as representatives of particular identity groups.
A diligent public servant
The second lesson that we can extract from Sardanis' life is the significance of having diligent public servants committed to the promotion of the greater good rather than the relentless pursuit of private gain. Following the achievement of formal independence from Britain in October 1964, and as the development planning of the first administration led by President Kenneth Kaunda took shape, Sardanis laid his much-needed economic skills at its disposal, helping to shape the economic direction of the newly independent state. In 1965, he was appointed by President Kaunda as Chairman and Managing Director of the Industrial Development Corporation(INDECO), a government body that was responsible for promoting industrial development by making loans available, taking part in industrial projects, preparing feasibility studies and providing advice to potential investors.
Under his leadership, and in only a couple of years, he transformed INDECO from being a small lending institution to a large holding company operating in many fields. His main objective was rapid industrial development for Zambia. INDECO got involved in the production of textiles, fertilizers, explosives, and copper fabrication. It played a leading role in the construction of the Zambia-Tanzania road to the East African Coast, the Tazama Oil pipeline along the same route, the INDENI oil refinery, and Chilanga Cement plant. INDECO also formed Zambia Airways, Intercontinental Hotel, and Kafue Textiles, and made investments in Zambia Sugar Company, Dunlop Zambia and Duncan, Gilbey and Matheson. By 1969, INDECO had become a major industrial conglomerate employing 13,000 people, the second largest business group after the copper mines.
Starting 1968, Sardanis also served as Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, a position that he held alongside his leadership of INDECO. He was to later hold the positions of Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of State Participation and Ministry of Finance. Using these roles, he became one of the key architects of the Matero and Mulungushi economic reforms aimed at transferring the ownership of major sectors of Zambia's economy from private, mainly foreign, hands to Zambians and the state. In particular, Sardanis played the leading role in negotiating the 51 per cent takeover of the mining industry in 1969. Following the consolidation of the mining companies into INDECO, the company was renamed the Zambia Industrial Mining Corporation (ZIMCO), and he became the first Chairman and Chief Executive.
By 1971, ZIMCO's annual sales stood at USD1.12 billion and with net assets of USD 840 million. In the same year, however, Sardanis, driven by the belief that it was now time for black Zambians to take over his roles, resigned and left government with a generous testimonial from President Kaunda, who said that he had done more for the economy than any other single man. He maintained his personal friendship with Kaunda, whom he visited regularly. In 1990, as President Kaunda was preparing to return Zambia to a multiparty democratic system, Sardanis was among those who wrote the new proposed constitution, which provided the legal basis for the landmark political changes that followed.
A successful businessman
The third lesson that can be drawn from Sardanis' life is the importance of the success of home-grown African businesses in the strength of the national economy. After leaving government service, Sardanis developed his considerable talent in the field of business. In late 1971, he formed Sardanis Associates, which later became ITM International. Built on the principle of indigenisation, the company established close partnerships with other local firms such as the Chibote Group of Companies, Minestone, Chibote Farms and Interchem. On the international level, ITM grew to become a group of more than 150 companies operating in at least 40 countries worldwide, 25 of them in Africa. It was involved in international trade and product distribution, construction, mining, finance and later commercial banking. Many of his Zambian colleagues joined him on the international scene where they served as senior managers and directors in countries such as the United States and United Kingdom.
In 1984, Sardanis, driven by the conviction that 'colonial' banks were only interested in serving foreign corporate business interests, opened Meridien Bank Zambia, ITM's first move into commercial banking. He felt that by creating a local bank he could provide local project finance and assist clients in finding export opportunities and the necessary export finance. After establishing a strong local presence, the Meridien Banking group expanded into several West African countries such as Liberia, Cameroon, Burundi and Nigeria. The acquisition of the BIAO group of banks in Francophone Africa (at the request of Alassane Ouattara, then the Governor of the BCEAO, and currently the President of Côte d'Ivoire) made Meridien BIAO the largest bank in black Africa. Over time, the bank expanded its finance interests to insurance, opening Madison Insurance in Ghana, Tanzania and Zambia. By the mid 1990s, ITM/ Meridien had over USD 1.5 billion in assets and a turnover of USD 1.3 billion, and employed approximately 30,000 people, almost half of whom were in Zambia.
Meridien eventually collapsed for, among others, political reasons. Its success upset the Western establishment. A concerted campaign by the central banks of Britain and France against the bank paved the way for its demise. A series of unfortunate economic issues in West Africa compromised the bank's ability to survive the onslaught. Its collapse should not, however, obscure two important points. One is that ITM/Meridien was a local business. While foreign direct investment is important, national economies thrive and remain sustainable if they are built on the success of locally owned businesses, which then export their capital internationally. Sardanis and other people of his generation acted on this principle and helped Zambia achieve self-reliance in many sectors. The second point is that ITM/Meridien paved the way for a more competitive banking environment and brought about inclusion of all races in the banking system in Africa. As Sardanis himself noted in his book, A Venture in Africa: the Challenges of African Business, 'We opened new frontiers for African business. We stumbled and fell within sight of our goal, but we opened the way for many.'
A great supporter of the arts, conservation, research and scholarship
The fourth lesson from Sardanis's lifeis the importance of investment in the arts, research and scholarship. Sardanis was a greater supporter of the development of art in Zambia. Though he was a businessman committed to economic nationalism, he understood that development is not all about numbers; art and other cultural productions are important too. To this end, he not only supported those who administered the state but other domains of life, including art. With a keen eye for talent and working with young people, he was able to identify and support promising artists who could then make their own contributions. The walls of Chaminuka are covered with more than 1,000 pieces of Zambian art. From an early age, Sardanis was a patron and collector. He sponsored many of Zambia's earliest and most prominent artists such as Petson Lombe, Henry Tayali, Remmie Sichalwe and Flinto Chandia. Sardanis also bought their art for himself and his many businesses both locally and internationally. In this way, he helped establish a self-sustaining market for Zambian art. It is no wonder that he was, in the late 1990s,awarded the Ngoma Award for his contribution to the visual arts in Zambia.
Sardanis also supported conservation and tourism, exemplified most notably in the environmental character of his home, Chaminuka. Built in the style of a village typical in the North-Western Province, characterised by a series of Insakas and red brick, Chaminuka, which meansa small hill, was constructed in the late 1970s. It overlooks Lake Chitoka and is situated in a game park approximately 40 sq. km in size. Throughout most of his life in Zambia, he visited the game parks and nature reserves. During the 1970s, he became increasingly concerned about the environmental destruction caused by the over-population of elephants, which contributed to the demise of many of Zambia's other wildlife species. In response, he started Chaminuka as a "Noah's ark" in the belief that if the National Parks were to lose some of their species, it would serve as a gene pool from which the authorities could draw to restock the parks.
Today, Chaminuka has more than 7,000 animals representing approximately 72 species of wildlife. Sardanis also financed 14 other game farmers to stock game. It is estimated that 30 per cent of Zambia's wildlife population is now in private farms. In the early 2000s, Sardanis decided to open Chaminuka to the public. Now a community of more than 1,000 people, it is run by a new generation of Zambians whom he nurtured. More than 20,000 people a year flock to Chaminuka to commune with nature, view the art collection, taste Kaposhi's international award-winning cheeses or, indeed, to meet Sardanis and learn from his stories, wisdom and vision.
Besides arts and conservation, Sardanis also supported research and scholarly publications. His own published works about his own life and about Zambia are well known. What is perhaps less well known is his determination to support research when others have failed to do so. His bank, Meridian, for example, supported the publication of Guardians in Their Time: Experiences of Zambians Under Colonial Rule, 1890-1964, an important edited work by the University of Zambia's Department of History on colonialism in Zambia. What is notable about this publication is that all the chapters in it were written by researchers who were either based in Zambia or were Zambians. The contrast with prior and subsequent similar publications, dominated by foreign scholars, could not be more striking.
Sardanis further understood the importance of writing memoirs, a task that many people of his generation have not taken seriously. In countries like Zimbabwe and South Africa, nationalist and other prominent figures are serially writing their own memoirs or leaving their own private papers for others to work on in the future. This is hardly the case in Zambia. Those who belong to our country's first generation, that is those who were alive at independence, are gradually leaving us. Some years from now, there will be nobody left who was an adult in 1964. Having been key protagonists in the nationalist struggle and played active roles in public life during Zambia's first 50 years of independence, many expect these nationalist figures, now advanced in years and with most of their lives behind them to reflect upon, to use their unique experiences to provide an insider's view of the country's evolution. This is exactly what Sardanis did before he died.
Motivated by the desire to share his experiences within the broader themes of Zambian political and economic history, he wrote three books, all published by IB Tauris. The first is Africa: Another Side of the Coin, published in 2003 and covering Northern Rhodesia's final years and Zambia's early years of independence. The second, written in 2007, is A Venture in Africa, which covers his personal experience in running a business conglomerate in Africa. More recently, in 2014, Sardanis wrote Zambia: The First 50 Years which provides an in-depth account of the country's evolution since independence. In countries like Zambia which have a huge young population and where decades of underfunding and neglect have undermined the capacity of local scholars to conduct historical research, memoirs enable current generations to understand what has happened before. Autobiographical writing is not a personal vanity or for the benefit of an individual's own descendants. It has a wider social purpose.
A family man and a friend
The fifth and final lesson from Sardanis' life centres on the principle that family and friendship are closer to the core of our lives than wealth and status. Although he was a deeply private person, Sardanis greatly cherished his family, consisting of Danae, his partner and friend for nearly 60 years, their two children Stelios Shula, 57, and Harry Kayombo, 55, and his two grandchildren, Alex and Dylan. He also had remarkable capacity for friendship – intensely loyal, warm and kind friendship – expressed in a genuine interest in another's well-being and in the most generous hospitality in conversation that encouraged as well as stretched. Welcoming and personable, he treated everyone with warmth and opened his mind to a wide number of people, whom he infected with his wit, stories and humour.
Sishuwa with the late Andrew Sardanis and his wife, Danae, at Chaminuka
Sardanis touched the lives of many people, including many who are not even aware that he did. Most people see development as economic upliftment of themselves and their immediate families. Many who have come from humble beginningsnow have a house in one of the suburbs of Lusaka and nice cars. Unmindful of the injustices and inequalities of the society in which they live, they will work hard to help their children have a better life tomorrow. These children are going to universities in Europe, Asia, the United Statesor South Africa to become accountants, lawyers, medical doctors and engineers. Andrew Sardanis saw things differently. For him, economic upliftment was about improving the whole of society so that many benefit. 'If you wish a better life for yourself or your children,' he once told me over dinner at Chaminuka, 'then you should seek to create and live in a better society that promotes the interests of the collective, not the individual, and which pursues more freedoms.'
He wore his humanity on his sleeve and embodied so much of what is good in people. His life challenges us with one final question: if we were to die today, can we imagine someone else saying the same of us? If not, why not? Let us each use the time allotted to us as humanely and as compassionately as Andrew Sardanis did. In 'Do not go gentle into that good night', an emotional and evocative poem written a year before death claimed his own life, the Irish poet, Dylan Thomas, advised his dying father to not accept death passively. Instead, he encouraged him to confront it with courage and challenge it:
"Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of light.
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning, they
Do not go gentle into that good night".
Andrew Sardanis did not go gentle into that good night. He burned and raved at close of day. Though bruised from the fight and dimed by the dying light, he raged, raged his way into that good night, as a victor, one more time.

The Blair Witch (2016) released on general release September, Directed by Adam Wingard. The official sequel to The Blair Witch Project (1999).
This film has to be the best kept secret in Hollywood,being called the woods,during filming,production and Finally the rap,being directed by Adam Wingard,the excellent director of Your Next,and The Guest,comes his take on the best found footage film ever made,and also for the first time a direct sequel to the 1999 classic The Blair Witch Project.
Determined to to go to Blair once more,and truly find out what happened to his sister in that famous woods. I have seen the trailer that finally dropped on Friday,and you know it does look good,and if it is anything like the original,that actually freaked myself and my cousin when we watched it together all those many years ago I will be watching this one in September at the cinema like I did the first one,to get that true cinematic experience.
I am hoping it is better than Blair Witch Book Of Shadows,which in all fairness was slated on release,but my personal opinion,watching again recently isn't that bad,and I have ordered off eBay the special edition of it, I will put on the trailer but for some reason when I tried yesterday I could not locate it,but as soon as I can get it on here I will.


The Israelites camped alongside the shores of the Red Sea just as God had told them to. They were absolutely in the Will of God and adhering to His Words without wavering. But then a problem attacked them. Pharaoh and his army were back! They were going to attack them and force them to return back to Egypt as slaves. They were paralyzed with fear and had a total nervous breakdown under the pressure! And the first person they blamed was Moses; they immediately turned to him and complained to him. His reaction was beautiful to me. How Moses had changed in a short while. I mean just a while ago he basically told the Lord that he was a nobody and he couldn't possibly help the Lord in freeing these people, and here he was a tower of faith.
The Lord was in effect saying here that Moses should stop praying and start acting! Interesting. I think we can learn something from that. Prayer is absolutely vital to our Christian lives; it is our life line and our way of communicating to our living God. But it would seem to me that sometimes we need to act to. Sometimes we should stop praying and start acting. I carefully thought about this and it is so true. I think sometimes we can use prayer as an excuse for being passive. For example we will say we will act once we have received guidance on what to do. But in the mean time we have received guidance and confirmations long ago and we simply use prayer as an excuse not to act.
We need to examine our motives when we don't act. Is it really because we haven't received guidance yet, or is it because we don't really want to act? God had told Moses that He will use Moses' staff to display His wonders and do His miracles, and God expected Moses to stop crying out to Him and act by using his staff. Moses did act and the result was miraculous, amazing.
Start acting too when you know what God wants you to do. You will be taking one step closer to the miraculous happening.

I had an experience some time ago where I could just pray for a very sick lady who doesn't know Jesus, but I knew that God wanted me to go to her and tell her of His love. It meant a great deal to her.
Thank you Ilze, this is awesome. We sometimes turn the 'blind eye', or do just the minimum to justify ourselves! We must act: 'faith without works is in vain..' we must ask God for HIS guidance and act accordingly!! 'Use me God, even me'..

Megyn Kelly is taking a lot of criticism from both liberals and conservatives on social media for interviewing Infowars radio host Alex Jones. Liberals are upset that Alex Jones was given a platform on NBC since he has questioned whether the murders of 20 children and six adult staff members in 2012 at Sandy Hook school was a hoax.
Turns out that's exactly what the segment was. Kelly challenged Jones from the start, introducing him as a "radical conspiracy theorist" and promising to confront him on his "notorious lie" about Sandy Hook.
Alex Jones looked visibly tense during the interview and the two frequently interrupted each other.
Jones also commented on his connection to President Trump, who has appeared on his Infowars radio show during the campaign.
"I think my influence on Trump is way, way lower than what mainstream media has said," he commented. Appearing humble he downplayed their relationship, saying he and the president were friendly, but not friends.
"We saw The Pentagon get blown up. Now let me tell you something. If a plane went into The Pentagon which I never believed a plane went into The Pentagon. I have no clue where that came from. There is not one tire track on the lawn," said Stern back in the early 2000's.

Did you lose the sale because the form was too complicated?
I was interested in buying something (in this case, a gym membership).
I went to the website to find out what it costs.
I had to fill out a long form, with irrelevant questions (like my street address). And I was using my phone, so it was a pain.
I get creeped out, because now I know that I'll get an unwanted sales call.
Lesson: Don't let anything get in the way of a customer who is ready to buy.
Get rid of obstacles like complicated forms. Even better, just put the price on the site.

WBNY is the college radio station of Buffalo State College, located within the city of Buffalo, New York. WBNY, licensed in 1982, broadcasts on 91.3 FM.[1] The station is the descendant of BSC's AM carrier-current station known as WSCB, which could be received only on campus through the electrical system. The WBNY call letters were previously associated with 1400 AM in Buffalo in the 1940s and 1950s. The WBNY identification is apparently also used by a shortwave pirate radio station, unrelated to the FCC-licensed FM station.[citation needed]

2005-2006 DJ's of WBNY in the Checkerboard Lounge
WBNY maintains studio locations at Campbell Student Union 220 with transmitter facilities located on Porter Hall, with an effective radiated power of 1,000 watts (originally 100 watts, and 1,000 watts as of October 16, 2013), allowing not only for full campus-wide coverage, but also general coverage as far south as South Buffalo and as far west as Fort Erie, Ontario.[2]
Music programs on WBNY include two and three hour blocks of RPM, punk rock, retro, folk/bluegrass, loud rock, jazz, American Roots, reggae, hip hop, and "format" shows, consisting of music from WBNY's library rotation. Once a week, there is a six-hour block of talk radio, featuring shows and discussions about professional wrestling, politics, sports, and trivia. Wrestling radio show "Monday Night Mayhem" originated on WBNY and after moving to an internet-only broadcast in December 2004, continued to be popular.
The station has been entirely student run since its inception in 1982. Carrier-current predecessor WSCB General Manager Michael Lesser and Program Director Scott Michaeloff were the directors of the WBNY effort, along with staff such as Tom Connolly. Lesser, who was also a VP of the Student Government, embraced the vision of Connolly and others, successfully petitioning the FCC and secured funding from the United Students Government (USG) to create WBNY. The DJ lounge, WBNY's "Lesser Lounge", was named in honor of the founding GM.
Lesser elected not to run for General Manager for a third term, and new GM Bob DeAmbra won election through popular vote. DeAmbra and Program Manager Tom Calderone nurtured an alternative format that became nationally recognized[by whom?]. DeAmbra's successor, Karen Szczuka was the first woman to become General Manager of WBNY Radio Station. Szczuka had previously held the title of Underwriting Director and was the first woman on the stations Board of Directors. Szczuka went on to work for Archie Comic Publications, Inc. as an Executive Assistant to the Chairman in charge of International Publishing, Copyrighting, Head of Permissions to use the Archie likeness in print and media and wrote several free lance stories for Archie, Betty & Veronica, Betty and the Jughead comic book titles. Calderone became a Senior Executive at MTV. DeAmbra (American Express) and Lesser (Healthcare Marketing) went on to marketing careers. John Rosso became a senior executive with ABC, then Citadel and now Triton Digital. Engineer Nick Rozanov was General Manager, US of Radio 7 in Moscow, Russia and then moved into telecom. Scott Michaeloff is Senior Vice President and Executive Producer of Synaptic Digital. Many DJ's, including Tom Connolly, Rick Walters and Dave McKinley, can be heard regularly on radio and TV in the Buffalo, New York area.
In the spirit of predecessor WSCB, local bands, regardless of status or talent, were invited to appear on programs like "Down at Lulu's." The station also began bringing in relatively unknown national acts like R.E.M., The Cure, and The Replacements, and then-breakout act The Smashing Pumpkins for local performances. Some WBNY staffers launched their own bands, among them Tina Peel's "Intergalactic Burnt Toast," Jeff Hastings' "The ShAnkHeAds," Kevin Walsh's "Leper Gumbies," and Jacob Frasier and Anthony Puglisi's "Animal Magnetism."
The WSCB callsign is now licensed to the FM station of Springfield College in Springfield, Massachusetts

Taking back what I said about David Ragan, he redeemed himself in the 500 with a fifth place finish. And that David Gilliland! Did anyone notice the move he made from the grass to right in front of Biffle, I think it was? Sheesh, my heart races at the memory! Of course, the real story is the old dog racing the young gun for the finish line. Love Mark Martin, would have cried if he'd won, but Harvick...the man doesn't know how to get off the gas. What a stunning race. Folks will be talking about this one as a race for the ages.
Home now, wishing the Florida sunshine had followed me here. Getting back into the work groove is harder than I thought it would be. Ten days of playing spoiled me, and I'm gluing my tush to the desk chair so I won't be tempted to hop up and clean, fold, put away, and all the stuff that goes with coming home.
However, I do have a treat coming up in a month and a few days - a long weekend in NYC! Going to the PASIC conference for the first time to meet with publishing people and fellow authors. I love the creative energy that's a natural byproduct of gatherings like this.
Before I forget, has anyone out there read any of the NASCAR HQ romances? I was wondering what the general opinion of them is. HQ had samples for three new novels stuffed in the packet with the Daytona program, and they arranged for a speed dating session and other offshoots for race fans interested in their new line. Since I'm an old married lady, I didn't attend any of the speed dating gigs, etc., but I'd love to know if any of you all did. If so, how'd it go?
I'll get pictures up as soon as I can download them.


Alpinestars is once again leading the way in developing rider safety. Having pioneered countless innovations in boots, suits and gloves, notably the development of external protection on road race boots in the early 80's and more recently employing the philosophy on its leather suits, they are now introducing a new dimension into race suit technology – a fully autonomous, multiple field data acquisition system. The Advanced Safety Technology suit (AST).
Fitting telemetry and acquiring data from race bikes and cars has been common practice for some years, however, acquiring data directly from the body of the rider/driver has not and Alpinestars is developing technology to allow technicians the ability to analyze the gravitational and impact forces, as well as the physiological effects experienced by a human when pushing the limits of a high performance race machine.
During the weekend of the German Grand Prix at the Sachsenring, MotoGP rider John Hopkins wore a leather suit equipped with the new A.S.T. system. Although indistinguishable from his usual race suit, John's body was constantly monitored by a series of accelerometers, impact and physiological sensors.
The impact sensors are mounted on both external and internal surfaces of the suits protectors to measure the loads sustained and absorbed in a fall, without impeding or endangering the rider in any way. The sensors record the maximum impact value subjected to the rider, providing real situation data, above and beyond the test simulations currently conducted in the Alpinestars laboratory.
The custom data processor and solid-state memory, encased in an impact resistant structure and hidden in the back hump on John's suit, acquire data throughout each session which can be downloaded immediately into a laptop plugged into a connector on the suit. The information can then be studied to analyze pressure point values, lateral G loads experienced, the rider's pulse and the suit's cooling performance.
The benefit of developing such technology is the tremendous amount of information that can be gathered about the stresses borne by a rider and the performance of safety equipment during a race and in the event of a fall. Alpinestars' goal is to develop the technology to measure all the dimensional forces at work upon a rider and to allow greater understanding of material performance thereby improving safety both on the racetrack and ultimately on the road.

Q: COUNT reducing results? A query without COUNT returns 3 records, with only 1.
SELECT  `blog_cate` . * , COUNT( blogi.blog_cate ) AS num
FROM (
`blog_cate`
)
JOIN  `blogi` ON  `blogi`.`blog_cate` =  `blog_cate`.`blogi_cate_url`

results:
+----+------------------+----------------+-----+
| id | blogi_cate_title | blogi_cate_url | num |
+----+------------------+----------------+-----+
|  1 | Базы данных      | batabase       |   3 |
+----+------------------+----------------+-----+

And the same query, but without a COUNT:
SELECT  `blog_cate` . *
FROM (
`blog_cate`
)
JOIN  `blogi` ON  `blogi`.`blog_cate` =  `blog_cate`.`blogi_cate_url`

That returns me 3 records:
+----+------------------+----------------+
| id | blogi_cate_title | blogi_cate_url |
+----+------------------+----------------+
|  1 | Базы данных      | batabase       |
|  1 | Базы данных      | batabase       |
|  3 | Разработка       | razrabotka     |
+----+------------------+----------------+

Is it possible to use a COUNT and have a normal results?
p.s. tables:
+----+------------+
| id | blog_cate  |
+----+------------+
|  1 | batabase   |
|  2 | batabase   |
|  3 | razrabotka |
+----+------------+

+----+------------------+----------------+
| id | blogi_cate_title | blogi_cate_url |
+----+------------------+----------------+
|  1 | Базы данных      | batabase       |
|  2 | PHP              | php            |
|  3 | Разработка       | razrabotka     |
+----+------------------+----------------+

A: COUNT() with out a group by will group all records and produce a count of them.  Adding more fields to the select will only show the details of the first record

A: You could build one query to get the three rows and one query to get the count result and join them via cross join to combine every detail row with the count row.

The Royce Twins
Track: Picture Perfect
The Royce Twins are Gabriel and Michael Saalfield, twin brothers, singer-songwriters and multi-instrumentalists. The Twins grew up in Mount Beauty in the alpine highlands of northern Victoria and began their live work around the live music haunts of Ballarat while studying. The Twins are now are Melbourne based.
In 2014 the Twins successfully crowd funded their self-titled EP. Two of the songs from the release made it to the semi-finals of the International Song Writing Competition – 'Heartstrings' in the singer-songwriter/folk category and 'Fly' in the hotly contested 'pop/rock' category.
The release also charted on the independent AIR charts. This is a great achievement for first time independent and emerging singer-songwriters. The Royce Twins today are kept busy with their performance work, playing a mix of live music venues, festivals and private events as they promote their brand-new release called '4 Years' released late 2017.
'4 Years' features five brand new tracks written and performed by the Twins and the EP reflects the journey of relationships. In the early years everything is easy when you're in love. The middle stage is where things can get rough and if things don't work out at the end, you're flying solo.

What means "to wait to Morkovkina Shrovetide"
13th series "Masha and the Bear" called "Who did not hide I is not guilty. Many children with a lot of fun watching this animated series. And not only children.
What the book is about "the adventures of electronics"?
Bear leaves the house and sees the magazine in my mailbox. He came up with the crossword puzzles. The bear makes tea, takes the pencil and sits down to guess the crossword. Pencil blunts and sharpens it until he is Masha. Bear the first thing hiding behind the magazine. Mary decides that the Bear plays hide and seek with her and immediately finds it. Then comes the turn to find her. She sits in a chair, covers his face – hiding.
Bear takes in one hand a crossword puzzle in a different pencil and goes to look for her around the house. He pretends he is looking for the girl in the closet, the fridge. But actually guesses the answers to the questions. The pencil becomes blunt and the sharpener is near Masha. He reaches for a pencil sharpener, and Maria opens her eyes. One solution is to pretend that he found her.
Then came the turn to hide the Bear. A quiet place was in the closet on the top shelf. Mary of course it was not found. The bear presented himself as Masha in his quest turns everything in the house and makes a mess. He came out of the closet and called her to play outside.
Wherever he was hiding, nothing good came out: he sat on a hedgehog, fell out of a tree. Have Mache to teach each other how to hide, and the Bear forget about the magazine.


The Good Life Elsewhere is a very funny book. It is also a very sad one. In it, Moldovan writer Vladimir Lorchenkov tells the story of a group of villagers and their tragicomic efforts, against all odds and at any cost, to emigrate from Europe's most impoverished nation to Italy for work. This is a book with wild imagination and heartbreaking honesty, grim appraisals alongside optimistic commentary about the nature of human striving. This is a bleeding, wild work, grotesque in every twist of its plot and in every character, written brightly, bitterly, humorously, and honesty. Is it possible for lovely Italy to take the place of both hell and paradise, as well as one's most cherished dream?

Laïla Aziz (; born 1 May 1981) is a Los Angeles-based Dutch-Moroccan fashion designer. She is a creative designer at 'Kayat', a fashion brand that designs modern-day outfits for women.

Early life
Laïla Aziz was born and raised in the Netherlands to a Moroccan family. She had a passion for fashion and sketched outfits while growing up. In her younger years, her mother was against the idea of her studying fashion. Instead, both of her parents wanted her to focus on her education and pursue a career in law as they thought fashion would not provide a stable future. She pursued her degree in law and then married Nadir Khayat, a Moroccan record producer, singer and songwriter, popularly known by his stage name: RedOne. After their marriage, the couple moved to New York, where Laila took a one year course in fashion and started working as a stylist.

Career
Aziz resides in Morocco and the United States with her husband. Her first collection was successful, despite criticism from the fashion industry as too "Arabic" for the American market. The inspiration behind her designs have been the places she has visited. Aziz has a special connection with the United Arab Emirates, as she believes that the country has an amazing multiculturalism, which is reflected in her work. Her fashion collection was featured in Vogue's 2018 "Autumn/Winter Ready-To-Wear" collection. Kayat's Summer-Spring collection were included in 2020 Arab Fashion Week.

Personal life
Laïla married Nadir Khayat, who is popularly known as RedOne, in 2006.

In our work as consultants, we hear statements like, "we need to change the culture," every day. Any leader will tell you that culture plays a strong role in the success of their organization, especially when it comes to safety. Culture will either reinforce the changes you've introduced or it will diminish them. But as we all have observed, "knowing" the importance of culture doesn't necessarily mean that you're building a strong culture within your organization. We've done extensive research on this topic. Below you'll find some of our best insights into what makes "safety culture" work within organizations.
Video: What is Safety Culture?
In this video, Dr. Tom Krause defines the difference between "organizational culture" and "safety culture," and explores how these two types of culture affect safety within an organization.
The field of "organizational safety" has emerged over the past 20 years or so, mainly from the work of James Reason. The name "organizational safety" recognizes a central insight of relevance to those who want to understand and accelerate safety performance improvement. The insight is that getting safety right means getting the organization right. Safety excellence follows from organizational excellence.
Why Can't We Get Culture Right?
Organizations usually miss a crucial piece when they try to assess their culture: the sense of pride, meaning, and purpose that employees derive from their work. Where is it on the survey? An analytic analysis won't touch it. It isn't in the top layer data a company might gather when they try to understand the organization's culture. It comes from loving your work.
Leadership stimulates growth and safety improvement in organizations; culture is the mechanism that sustains it. Culture will either reinforce the changes you've introduced or it will diminish them, depending on the values, beliefs, and behaviors that leaders have engrained in your organization. The fourth insight in our book, 7 Insights into Safety Leadership is that leadership stimulates safety improvement, but culture sustains performance.
Dr. Tom Krause and Kristen Bell have a long-standing commitment to validating culture assessment tools. They are particularly proud of the work we did in the 1990's with psychologist Dr. David Hofmann, to identify characteristics of organizational culture that predicted safety performance. The innovation process was high-quality and highly efficient: It began with a review of published academic research. New research needed only to select, model and validate a set of scales that would become an effective organizational culture assessment tool for safety.
A senior manager at a major oil & gas company strongly believed that retirement of the baby boom generation, combined with his organization's strong dependency on process and systems, was creating problems for efficiency, effectiveness, and safety throughout the business. He hired Kristen Bell to work with his team to develop and test his hypothesis so that they were assured of having valid and reliable data to inform an improvement strategy. A series of interviews and productive exercises provided the basis of a solid assessment tool.
Ready to take the next step in finding new ways to improve safety leadership and culture?
Safety, Culture & Business Risk: What's the Connection?
Senior Leader: "We Have to Change the Culture". Yes. But Who Created it to Start With?
Where Did the Concept of "Organizational Culture" Come From?
Do we really need safety culture surveys?

An Overactive Hurricane Season Requires Special Attention for Horry County Residents
This year, more and more homeowners are relying on storm recovery services in Horry County. The overactive hurricane season has brought about multiple named storms already, with a few more currently active in the Atlantic Ocean. One such storm is Tropical Storm Karen, which the NOAA is watching carefully.
According to the NOAA, "Regardless of Karen's status as a tropical cyclone, this system is expected to bring tropical-storm-force winds, heavy rainfall, flash floods, and mudslides."
After Hurricane Dorian, it appears the worst is not yet behind us.
The Dangers of Storm Surges: Storm Recovery in Horry County
Caused by the force of the winds around a hurricane or tropical storm, a storm surge is an excessive amount of water pushed toward the shore by the storm. A storm surge is fast, produces inland flooding, and often produces over 20 feet of water at once. Any property in the way are likely to be destroyed along the coast.
The key to coming back stronger than ever after a storm surge is to remain informed and prepare ahead of time.
Storm surges are the leading cause of hurricane-related deaths in the United States.
Water weighs around 1,700 pounds per cubic yard, so the waves from a storm surge can easily destroy a building along the coast.
A storm surge will undermine roads and foundations, eroding the materials underneath.
A single inch of water from a surge can lead to around $25,000 in property damages.
In order to prepare for a tropical storm or storm surge:
Understand your area's risk of hurricanes, tropical storms and flooding.
Sign up for community warning alertsor emergency alerts from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Weather Radio.
Learn more about your evacuation zone, evacuation route and shelter locations within driving distance of your home.
Gather necessary storm preparedness supplies, including three days of food and water for every person, medical aid, medications and more.
Protect your home from significant storm damage by cleaning the drains and gutters, installing check valves and investing in storm shutters for windows.
Keeping Safe After Hurricane Damage
After the storm has passed, it's not all sunshine. There will still be dangers around every corner, so take precautions.
Listen to the authorities for instructions and up-to-date storm warnings and information.
Do not attempt storm recovery and cleanup yourself. Hire a local restoration company to handle the damage.
Do not touch any electrical equipment in your home if there is standing water.
Avoid walking through floodwater, as it can contain dangerous debris, scared animals or contaminants.
Save your phone's battery for emergencies.
For more information on how to keep everyone safe before, during and after a hurricane, we've constructed a hurricane preparedness checklist for families in the region. Take a moment to download a copy below for further information on the subject.
For 24-hour storm recovery services this hurricane season, please call Restoration 1 of Horry County at 843-279-2662!
Jake Gervin is the president of Restoration 1 of Horry County. Jake and his team of professionals are all certified by the IICRC and have years of experience in home and commercial restoration.

Grade 1 Roster
Mill Ridge & Nicoma Happenings
To recieve blog updates,
Blood-Horse
Horse Entry
Mill Ridge
Nicoma
Present, Future and Past
It seems fitting that in only three days Keeneland will kick off the 2013 Fall Racing Season. Appropriately a feature race on opening day is the Grade 1 Alcibiades, named for my grandfather Hal Price Headley's champion two year old of 1929 and foundation broodmare. Among Alcibiades (pictured above) offspring was MENOW, champion two year old and sire of Tom Fool among others. Also, Salaminia, the third dam of the Epsom Derby winner SIR IVOR. Sir Ivor was bred by my mother, Alice Headley Chandler, raised on Mill Ridge Farm and born three years after the death of Hal Price Headley in 1965. As noted by historian Ed Bowen, "Sir Ivor was both harbinger and catalyst of an international pattern of American bred successes in Europe's top races. This pattern saw the world's top horsemen gather at various North American auctions and helped elevate Keeneland to preeminence in the world's Thoroughbred market."
Equally fitting, we introduce the new Mill Ridge web site for it will emphasize the present and future..while learning of the past. Sounds like a lot to do but that is the idea of Price, our 31 year old, who wanted to make it an interactive site with Twitter..a Blog..Facebook..You Tube...and all the latest tools of social media. This generation understands the ability to navigate and make things relevant and interesting while serving its purpose of information.
Thus, my intention is to allow those on the outside..inside. To allow them backstage and into the huddle. This will be accomplished by recalling our family history and six generations that have been archived from scrap books on to CDs. We will allow you inside through photos and stories and videos. The great thing, as I understand it, is you don't have to be a professional photographer or writer. Just someone interested in sharing...something very very special which we have here at Mill Ridge. This is the present..the future...and the past and I welcome you.

John Cassavetes (1929-1989)
Edmund Purdom, The Egyptian, 1953. Once Brando split for his New York shrink's couch, head Fox Darryl Zanuck scurried around searching for a new Sinuhe, the court physician - Cassevetes, Dirk Bogarde, John Montgomery Clift, Richard Conte, John Derek, Rock Hudson, John Lund, Guy Madison, Hugh O'Brian, Michael Pate. Fox borrowed MGM's wooden Purdom and sued Brando for $2m, settled when he agreed to make (the much worse) Désirée. Or Daisy-Rae as he called the one that got away from Napoleon. At the time, the unknown Cassavetes was called "that Mexican guy" - due to TV play about a bullfighter.
Richard Burton, Alexander The Great, US-Spain, 1955. Photo-journalist Sam Shaw tried to interest Robert Rossen in the unknown New York actor. He did not get the rôle but became firm friends with the one-time blacklisted director who taught him much and helped Cassavetes make his famous directing debut, Shadows, in 1959. Shaw went on to help produce four Cassavetes films during 1970-1980: Husbands, A Woman Under The Influence, Opening Night and Gloria.
Red Buttons, Sayonara, 1957. Marlon Brando did not run this time and Cassavetes was up for a supporting role - beaten in auditions and to the Oscar by a red-headed stand-up.
Elvis Presley, King Creole, 1957. Imagine Presley's rapture at winning a role once aimed at his idols: Marlon Brando and James Dean! Before the Harold Robbins' hero was tailored to suit Elvis, other potential Danny Fishers were: Cassavetes, Tony Curtis, Ben Gazzara, Paul Newman, Gerald O'Loughlin. In his fourth, favourite and best movie, Presley never let his idols down. "Good comic timing," noted the LA Times, "considerable intelligence and even flashes of sensitivity." Sadly never again. After this, the US Army cut his hair and his manger, Colonel Parker, castrated the rest.
Dean Martin, Rio Bravo, 1958.
Warren Beatty, The Roman Spring of Mrs Stone, 1961. On the scratch list for Vivien Leigh's Rome gigolo, Paolo di Leo, in Tennessee Williams' favourite movie of his work (his sole novel, in fact) were… the Roman looking Cassavetes, Frankie Avalon(!), James Darren, Fabian, Ben Gazzara, George Hamilton, Jeffrey Hunter, and John Saxon. Oh and Anthony Newley - more talented than any of them but hardly Italiano
Paul Newman, Paris Blues, 1961. During their second film together, Sidney Poitier told John about his jazz film. But Cassavates was always too busy directing his own movies, making quickies - and the jazz-loving Johnny Staccato private eye series to help finance them.
Dirk Bogarde, Darling, 1965. No US star would bite after realising this was all about The Girl. Asked which role he wanted, Laurence Harvey said: Julie Christie's!
Rip Torn, Sol Madrid, 1967. Hepatitis changed the drug lord Dietrich. Unfortunately for co-star Stella Stevens, who kept asking Casssavetes (her Too Late Blues director) to make a film with her and his wife Gena Rowlands. Never happened. "He knew where and how to reach me, so I guess if he really wanted me in one of his other films, he simply would have picked up the phone… Maybe this adulation was only one-sided."
Robert Forster, Medium Cool, 1969. Hero John Cassellis was, actually, called John Cassavetes in the script... and was going to be played by him.
Woody Allen, Everything You Always Wanted To Know About Sex * But Were Afraid To Ask, 1971. Woody was spurned by John and Raquel Welch and when Richard Benjamin andhis wife,Paula Prentiss,passed on being the couple in the third stanza called Why Do Some Women Have Trouble Reaching an Orgasm? Allen made it as an homage to Michelangelo Antonioni.. The best-selling author, Dr David Reuben (150m copies sold in 52 countries) hated the film, but thenWoody's parody of the sex manual was his revenge on Reuben for stealing oneof his Take The Money And Run jokes on TV. Johnny Carson: "Is sex dirty?"Reuben: "It is if you're doing it right."
Cameron Mitchell, Klansman, 1974. "My neighbour and friend said it WAS ONE OF THE BEST SCRIPTS HE'D EVER READ," growled maverick auteur Samuel Fuller in his usual CAPS, "and he'dlove to be part of it." So he asked Cassavetes to play the Ku Klax Klan lieutenant.Then Paramount got scared by Fuller'sferocity - and insisted he tone downthe violence. "HOW CAN ANYONE MAKE AN HONEST MOVIE ABOUT THE KKK WITHOUT VIOLENCE?" Before he could quit, Sammy was dropped and 007's Terence Young was in- and out of his depth. He was not alone.

200 Czechosłowacki Lekki Pułk Przeciwlotniczy – Wschód (cz. 200. československý lehký protiletadlový pluk - Východní, ang. 200th Czechoslovak Light Anti-Aircraft Regiment – East) – czechosłowacka jednostka wojskowa u boku wojsk brytyjskich podczas II wojny światowej.

Pułk powstał 21 kwietnia 1942 r. na bazie 11 Czechosłowackiego Batalionu Piechoty – Wschód, który od marca podlegał brytyjskiej 4 Brygadzie Przeciwlotniczej w Hajfie. Na czele Pułku stanął płk Karel Klapálek, b. dowódca 11 Batalionu Piechoty. Składał się on z dowództwa, trzech batalionów (każda po cztery kompanie), plutonu łączności i sekcji remontowej. W wyniku proklamacji czechosłowackiego rządu emigracyjnego z siedzibą w Londynie z 29 stycznia 1942 r. o zgłaszaniu się Czechów i Słowaków z zagranicy do oddziałów czechosłowackich, liczebność Pułku osiągnęła ponad 1,5 tys. ludzi. Szkolenie jednostki i jej wyposażanie w działa przeciwlotnicze przebiegało wolno.

Dopiero 21 lipca osiągnęła ona gotowość bojową, przejmując obronę przeciwlotniczą portu w Hajfie i rafinerii ropy naftowej oraz portu w Bejrucie. W grudniu podporządkowano ją brytyjskiej 17 Brygadzie Piechoty i przeniesiono do Tobruku, gdzie służyła do 23 lipca 1943 r. Następnie drogą morską Pułk został przetransportowany do Wielkiej Brytanii, przybywając do Liverpoolu 11 sierpnia. Żołnierze czechosłowaccy trafili do obozu w Colchesterze, gdzie utworzono z nich 1 Czechosłowacką Brygadę Piechoty (1 września 1943 r. przeorganizowaną w 1 Czechosłowacką Brygadę Pancerną).

Nintendo Land (coming in a few years)
theStudioTour.com > Studios > Universal Studios Hollywood > Theme Park > Current Attractions > Nintendo Land (coming in a few years)
Last updated; 27 October 2018
"You will enter an entire realm filled with iconic Nintendo excitement, gameplay, heroes and villains. All of the adventure, fun and whimsy you experience through a screen will now be all around you—in breathtakingly authentic ways." Nintendo, 2016
Super Nintendo World logo (Japan Park)
First announced in May 2015, this is huge news for Universal theme park fans. The first Nintendo theme park, Super Nintendo World, will open at Universal Studios Japan in time for the 2020 Tokyo Summer Olympics. The Hollywood and Orlando Universal parks will follow. Construction has just begun at Universal Studios Hollywood, and will start shortly at Universal Orlando.
The collaboration between Nintendo and Universal Parks and Resorts will be the next big thing in Universal Parks, and is expected to have a similar effect to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter openings in recent years. It is also designed to give visitors to California and Florida another reason to visit Universal, challenging Disney's Star Wars Land openings.
Nintendo is a huge player in video games, and has been at the top of the game since 1972. Their first foray into video gaming was in a partnership with Magnavox, making light guns for their early consoles. As time went on, they produced their own home video console (Color TV Game 6 and Color TV Game 15 in 1977). In 1981, the hugely popular Donkey Kong was released to arcades, featuring a plumber called Mario, and the eponymous ape.
See the bottom of this page for relevant press releases.
In 2017, a video rendering of the Japan version was released:
Location Speculation (October 2018)
It seems that the Nintendo attractions at Universal Studios Hollywood are now under construction on the Front Lot of the studio, in the area formerly occupied by The Phantom Stage 28 along with a row of 4 demolished soundstages (Stages 22, 23, 24 and 25), used for projects as diverse as To Catch A Thief, Thoroughly Modern Millie, The Sting, Murder She Wrote, Jurassic Park, Pirates of the Caribbean, Jarhead, Superstore (Stages 22 & 23), and the home of the original CSI series for many years.
It was previously thought that the site of the Revenge of the Mummy attraction would be used, along with adjacent underused soundstages.
Although the demolition phase is going well, we're not expecting a finished / open Nintendo Land until 2021. Japan is planned to be the first Nintendo attraction to open, in 2020.
As the area in in Lower Lot of the theme park is part of the film studio, it's unlikely to include any exterior attractions. This will give the designers full control of lighting and audio and will enable a fully immersive set of attractions.
There will be a themed retail / food area, along with at least two attractions. Past experience suggests at least one of these will be a simulator-type ride, but it would be nice to see Universal Creative looking beyond this type of technology. It could be exploring new technological possibilities of virtual reality and/or augmented reality.
It's also expected there will be some presence of Nintendo gaming systems or arcade games at the exit to the attractions.
Attraction Speculation
The area ('land') is believed to be themed around characters featured in the hugely popular Super Mario Kart series of games.
The entrance to the fully themed area will be through a green 'pipe' tunnel, and possibly up an escalator to the second level of the area.
The Mario Kart Experience
This attraction has been confirmed for Super Nintendo World, Japan (see video below, June 2017), and is believed to be the signature attraction that will be featured in the Hollywood and Orlando locations.
This attraction is believed to include augmented reality technology, and to merge this with a physical ride experience, possibly using a vehicle track similar to the Radiator Springs Racers attraction at Cars Land at Disney's California Adventure. A similar system was also used for Test Track at Disney World.
At some point during the ride, a tunnel lined with immersive projections will be used to simulate either an increase in speed, or a move to a different location.
Possible relevant patents:
US20180255285A1 Systems and methods for layered virtual features in an amusement park environment
US10099149B2 Amusement park ride tunnel
US20170364145A1 Systems and methods for generating augmented and virtual reality images
US20170323482A1 Systems and methods for generating stereoscopic, augmented, and virtual reality images
It's also thought another part of the attraction will be an immersive jungle land, based on Donkey Kong. It could feature a mine-cart rollercoaster-type attraction with a 'fake' ride track which makes it seem as though the ride vehicle is leaping across broken track gaps.
Nintendo have confirmed that elements of the attractions will interact with currently available Nintendo portable gaming platforms.
The video below features some great details on the (speculations about) planned attractions:
Name Speculation
It's thought the name for this new themed area could be Super Nintendo World. This is confirmed to be the name for the land at Universal Studios Japan in Osaka, but it's not yet confirmed for the other parks.
