The Price is Right controversial win
by Caroline Goddard
Dec 18, 2008 at 4:43 pm EDT
The Price is Right makes history. For only the second time, a contestant won the double showcase on The Price is Right! But many fans of the Drew Carey hosted show say the price is wrong — and the win is a cheat.
Contestants Terry and Sharon were up against each other in the show's famed Showcase Showdown. Normally, whoever bids closest to the price of their designated showcase wins it, but a special clause states that if a contestant hits the nail on the head, he or she wins both prizes.
And that is exactly what Terry did — causing many Price is Right fans to cry foul.
Here's the Price is Right inside scoop:
It is no secret that most contestants on the show base their bids on what the audience tells them.
One particular audience member is a regular, and had many of the prize prices memorized, because the Price is Right show repeats prizes and prices on a very frequent basis. It doesn't take a brain surgeon to figure out that pattern.
This audience member shouted out the right amount for a car that Sharon had bid on earlier.
In the video, you can see Terry looking in the direction of one particular person in the audience while calculating his bid — the same man who gave Sharon her car bid.
A man claiming to be that very audience member has been talking about the experience on game show message board golden-road.net.
When host Drew Carey saw that Terry bid the exact amount, he halted production for 45 minutes while producers made sure nothing unsavory had happened. By-the-by, the airing of the show was delayed three weeks for the same reason.
But the win was indeed fair — the networks Standards and Practices department gave it the seal of approval.
Much more suspicious? Carey's blase reaction to the historic moment. Regular viewers have seen him get more excited over a Hot Pocket.

Touring the new place...
Boss Lady Anna takes us around the new location and paints the picture of what is soon to come.
After many years of tremendous success and love on El Camino Real, Illusive is changing locations. Lock, stock, and monkey barrel. This is not our choice, but we accept the challenge.
In January of this year, we started negotiating for our next 5-year Lease Option. Negotiations started downhill, and soon went into the sewer. I was encouraged to delay negotiations until May. I was told my proposed rent pricing was way too low. All supporting documentation I had was rejected by the landlord for spurious reasons.
Our lease clearly lays out the process for Option negotiations. We followed the process exactly. The landlord did not and he objected to the appraiser we hired. He then threatened to sue us if we hired an arbitrator to appoint a third appraiser. And he told us we had to agree to their new rent pricing, which would double our present rent.
Our attorney advised that a lawsuit would cost $30,00-50,000 and then, if we won, we'd be stuck with a landlord that clearly doesn't value us or treat us well.
Then the landlord started remodeling our shopping center. Relations got much, much worse with him. He clearly showed he wanted us gone. He said that our line of customers on Free Comic Book Day broke our lease by "staging an event outside the premises". We were told to vacate the premises by December 31.
So we were forced to make the very difficult decision to leave our home at 2725 El Camino Real, Suites 104 and 105. The search began.
I looked from Sunnyvale to San Jose, from Los Gatos and Campbell and back to Santa Clara for an affordable space that is at least as large as our current site. I didn't want to step on the toes of any of our competitors. Because we Don't Do That. I did not want to abandon my customers, with whom I have worked so hard to build a thriving community in Santa Clara.
Negotiations with a few different locations failed to work out for various reasons. I was getting increasingly stressed out and worried.
Then fate intervened, as she often does.
June 1st, the day of our 9th Anniversary, I got a call from a friendly realtor, Lisa Gillmor, who also happens to be the current Mayor of Santa Clara. Her office had been doing me a favor by looking at one of the leases I wanted to negotiate. Then Lisa told me of a vacancy in her business park. I raced over to see it.
Two miles down El Camino, towards San Jose, between Benton and Homestead is Franklin Square. One side is Monroe and the other is Jackson, where the city's Farmer's Market is held every Saturday.
Our current location has around 2000 square feet.
This new space at 1270 Franklin Mall has 3720 square feet. Yeah.
It used to be a beauty school, so a lot of remodeling is needed. We have estimates from contractors, and they can begin work at the end of June.
The new space will have a large and small rooms for Art Classes, Meetups, Gaming, and the like. We already have two art teachers who want to run classes and a model for live-art sessions. If you have meetups, classes or things like that you want us to consider for September and beyond, do let me know.
And here's the kicker: the present landlord's construction came to a halt because they need physical access to the interior of our store to continue the remodel. We told them in order to violate the lease like that they'd have to pay us a settlement for how bad the construction has been for business, reduce our rent, AND let us out of our lease early without penalty.
They didn't give us exactly what we asked for, but they gave enough. The shop will be moving mid-end of August.
We will run a Kickstarter soon to help pay for the remodeling costs.
The Illusive Partners have something to say.

About Josephine Lenfestey
Josephine Buchanan Lenfestey was a life-long resident of Northeast Wisconsin whose leadership and philanthropy extended her influence and caring throughout and beyond Wisconsin. She was born on February 21, 1908, in Appleton, Wisconsin, and was educated in Appleton Public Schools, graduating as the valedictorian of her high school class. She attended college at Vassar College in Poughkeepsie, New York, earning her Baccalaureate in 1931, with a major in history and minor in drama, and at Northwestern University, Evanston, IL, where she did post-graduate work in the field of speech re-education.
Following professional work as a speech re-education teacher at Horace Mann High School in Gary, Indiana, she returned to Wisconsin and in 1937 married businessman Frederick J. (Ted) Lenfestey of De Pere. Their 48 years of married life focused on family and an array of community activities locally, and later in Delray Beach, Florida, where they wintered.
Mrs. Lenfestey's interest in civic causes, the performing arts, gardening and historic preservation are reflected in the service activities to which she has devoted her life. Mrs. Lenfestey was president of the area League of Women Voters and a member of the state LWV Board of Directors. She served on the boards of the De Pere and State historical societies and worked with other community leaders to assemble the area's historically important buildings in the setting that became Heritage Hill State Park. Childhood lessons in elocution set the stage for a lifelong interest in drama. She pursued this with college productions, play readings, service on the Community Theater Board, costume shows, play reviews and philanthropic support of the arts. She was well known for her work with the Garden Club des Peres and the gardens she designed at her homes in De Pere and on the bay shore, and at Pilgrim Congregational Church.
Mrs. Lenfestey was well-known at UW-Green Bay as a member of the Founders Association and donor to the University's first capital campaign. In 1978, Mrs. Lenfesty received the honor of the Chancellor's Award at May commencement. Both she and her husband are each recognized with a residence hall bearing their names. Mrs. Lenfesty also has dressing rooms of the Weidner Center for the Performing Arts also named in her honor, as well as the auditorium of the community playhouse in Delray Beach, Florida. Josephine Lenfestey died on June 26, 2003. Shortly before her death, Lenfestey visited campus for a dinner in her honor marking the dedication of the Lenfestey Family Courtyard, another namesake of the two.

Loved this column about baking.
And speaking of baking, I was too full to try a delicious looking chocolate and coconut cake in Melbourne so I might try and make my own.


I don't know whether to laugh or cry to think that people have to be "educated" to treat people with a modicum of respect and courtesy.
Yup, I get ya, Time to quit posting while half asleep, Put my old correct spelling tag back on the screen and use some punctuation where necessary.
Having this new leadership training is something that many Corps go through to allow everyone within to be on the same page. Granted certain things should be expected, but under last managment, that was clearly not to strictly enforced. I believe they are really turning over a new leaf and implementing changes hopfully for the better of everyone.
Considering that the new team seems to want to focus on less harrowing, ultra thrilling attractions, and bring the families back, you can see how there should be more money to get the company moving out of the red and into the black. I also see that more positive that it seems a few a failing to see: Six Flags in the past have been concentrating on erecting mega attractions and neglecting the Maintenance aspect of keeping all other attractions up and running. Since less money will be divied out to these attractions, more could potentially be used to ensure maintenance levels get to a more acceptable point.
I must admit, I was not a fan of the proposed changes, but the few changes (the Logical ones) that are up and running seem to be great ideas that should have been done a long time ago. Also since Snyder has taken over My total Stock income has shot through the roof, so he is playing the field for share holders and everyone else too.

Q: How to create dynamic array and variable in JSON data? I want to dynamically create as many variables as the number of color data read from json and assign the same color values to the created variables.
For example;
 blue colors dynamically incoming variable
 red colors dynamically incoming variable
 green colors dynamically incoming variable
then I want to store them in different dynamic arrays
{

    "color": "red"
},
{

    "color": "red"
},
{

    "color": "green"
},
{

    "color": "blue"
}

function datareadd(latitude, longitude, number) {
  $.getJSON("json.json", function(dataa) {
    var markers = [];
    var renkler = [];
    for (var i = 0; i < dataa.length; i++) {
      markers[i] = [];
      console.log(markers);
    }
    let grup = dataa.reduce((r, a) => {
      r[a.color] = [...r[a.color] || [], a];
      return r;
    }, renkler);

    console.log(grup.blue);
  })
}
datareadd();

A: You think you want to achieve like below.

var dataa = [{
    "color": "red"
  },
  {
    "color": "green"
  },
  {
    "color": "blue"
  }
];

var grup = dataa.map(x => ({ [x.color]: x.color }));

console.log(grup);
