Classification leadership table
In the 2017 Thüringen Rundfahrt der Frauen, six different jerseys were awarded. The most important was the general classification, which was calculated by adding each cyclist's finishing times on each stage. Time bonuses were awarded to the first three finishers on all mass-start stages: the stage winner won a ten-second bonus, with six and four seconds for the second and third riders respectively. Bonus seconds were also awarded to the first three riders at intermediate sprints; three seconds for the winner of the sprint, two seconds for the rider in second and one second for the rider in third. The rider with the least accumulated time is the race leader, identified by a yellow jersey. This classification was considered the most important of the 2017 Thüringen Rundfahrt der Frauen, and the winner of the classification was considered the winner of the race.

There was also a mountains classification, the leadership of which was marked by a black, white and yellow jersey. In the mountains classification, points towards the classification were won by reaching the top of a climb before other cyclists. Each climb was categorised as either first, second, or third-category, with more points available for the higher-categorised climbs. First-category climbs awarded the most points; the first four riders were able to accrue points, compared with the first three on all other climbs.

Additionally, there was a sprints classification, which awarded a blue jersey. In the sprints classification, cyclists received points for finishing in the top 5 in a stage, except the time trials. For winning a stage, a rider earned 5 points, with 4 for second, 3 for third, 2 for fourth and a single point for 5th place. Points were also awarded at intermediate sprints on each mass-start stage – awarded on a 3–2–1 scale. The fourth jersey represented the young rider classification, marked by a red and white jersey. This was decided the same way as the general classification, but only riders born on or after 1 January 1995 were eligible to be ranked in the classification.

The fifth jersey represented the classification for German riders, marked by a white and blue jersey. This was decided on each day's stage results, but only riders born in Germany were eligible to be ranked in the classification. The sixth and final jersey (coloured white and green) was for the most active rider, decided daily by a race jury. A purple jersey, presented on the podium only, was also given to amateur riders. There was also a team classification, in which the times of the best three cyclists per team on each stage were added together; the leading team at the end of the race was the team with the lowest total time.

Many players consider lacrosse tape a necessity for getting a good grip on their stick, but most are still disappointed. Redoing the same tape job you had on another stick is impossible, and bad weather can ruin twenty minutes of good taping. When I attended LaxCon 2018 I was able to try a product that I had heard about and finally experience Spyder Grypz. I was also able to meet the young creator, Maxx, who has taken Spyder Gryps to the very top. He was recently named the top young entrepreneur in America and it's clear why. He has an amazing product, a passionate approach to the community, and a very strong support system around him that is always wishing him well.
I once played with a player who never once replaced the tape on his stick. The tape and stick weren't even originally his. He inherited them from a friend, and he never wanted to change the feel. He would just grip the tape as hard as he could and twist in the same direction over and over again after a wet practice. This eventually created a smoothish, hard, and solid mass of tape on his stick. He played fine and liked it, but I always knew there was a better way to keep the same feel for years.
Flash forward seven years, and I'm ripping it up with Maxx at LaxCon 2018. He is showing me a Spyder Grypz model and giving me one as a gift. I'm in shock and awe remembering a midfielder from high school that Maxx could've saved.
The Spyder Grypz is a pretty out there product, and there are many reasons why older players wouldn't want to change to it. A roll of tape is only $5, and you get a lot more taping ability. For those guys, they may never change. For all other players, let me tell you why Spyder Grypz could change your game forever.
Even the very best tape gets worse in the rain and mud. I can personally say that I hate muddy tape and that I have no mud issues with Spyder Grypz. A simple wipe or rinse takes all the debris and dirt off without any change in quality. Water also slides right off and doesn't ruin your grip. There's no variable from the weather that will throw you off your game, and you'll feel better about making that pass in the rain.
The feel of Spyder Grypz is different from tape, but it isn't a bad difference. It's a consistent tackiness that won't let you down when you move into a passing or shooting position. If anything, it'll feel awkward at first because your hands will be more secure. This will become the norm, and you'll start understanding why Spyder Grypz and so useful.
My favorite thing about Spyder Grypz is that they come with rings to use for notches on your stick and a criss-cross pattern. I already did both of these things to my stick with tape, and now I don't have to spend half an hour carefully taping my stick. I also won't have to do that for any jealous teammates who don't know how to tape. Now I can just slip on a Spyder Grypz, heat it up, and be ready to play.
They work very well with a Rocket Mesh Buttend, and Spyder Grypz will stay sticky for more than one season. If you are looking to have the best stick on the team, always hit the corner, and never be slowed down by the rain, they Spyder Grypz are for you!


In a battle of unbeatens in the Iron Man era of pro football, the Packers defeat the New York Giants, 20-6, as 10 men play the full 60 minutes and the other close to 59 minutes.
The victory gives the Packers the inside track to their first NFL title (based on final league standings), which they clinch two weeks later with a 25-0 shutout of the Bears at Wrigley Field, finishing the only unbeaten season in team history (12-0-1). The Giants wound up 13-1-1.
On the season, the Packers outscore their opponents 198-22, posting eight shutouts and not allowing more than six points in any one contest. The lone blemish on Green Bay's record, a tie against the Frankford Yellow Jackets, ends 0-0.

Hightower and Cadillac Williams for my Romo.
Post the rest of your team. The deal is ok short term but not a fan of Cadillac.
I guess it's okay since you have decent options at QB so you can afford to move Romo, but beware, Hightower barely got a touch in the 2nd half last game despite having a great 1st half, and S.Jax is expected back this week or next week, so I don't see Caddy holding much value going forward. Couple red flags there.
The deal helps fill a need for you, but I think you might be able to get better value out of Romo.
I don't like it, personally Newton has to show me more before I would trust him as my qb1 for the rest of the season and Romo is a great fantasy qb who I think you can get more for. Hightower is ok, but as chgorman said there is red flags. With SJax back Caddy isn't worth much IMO.
I wouldn't do it unless your current rb's are something like Moreno and Reggie Bush.
I'd pass - Hightower and Williams may both see their stock drop drastically in the coming weeks with S-Jax back and Helu coming on strong.
Not a fan of that offer. Keep Romo.
I would sell Eli to a Giants fan or anyone who will buy him. He's gotta be worth a can of beans or something.

How the Kremlin spreads disinformation in Africa
When the Kremlin wants to gain influence in Africa or support a repressive leader without scrutiny, it often works with key oligarchs aligned with Russian President Vladimir Putin. A Kremlin favorite is Yevgeniy Prigozhin, known as "Putin's chef" because of his numerous catering contracts with the Kremlin.
Prigozhin is best known for financing the Internet Research Agency (IRA), a troll farm known for spreading disinformation worldwide. A State Department report has described Prigozhin as "manager and financier" for the Wagner Group, which it described as the Kremlin's proxy to "to carry out covert, armed operations abroad."

The State Department report indicates Prigozhin tried to influence African politics in Russia's favor through:
Companies that exploit Africa's natural resources.
Political operatives who undermine democratic actors.
Front companies posing as NGOs.
Social media manipulation and disinformation campaigns.
Dispersing disinformation
The U.S. government has sanctioned some of Prigozhin's companies for what it calls "malign political and economic influence around the globe."
Examples of this malign influence include sponsoring phony election monitoring missions in Zimbabwe, Madagascar, the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), South Africa and Mozambique, according to the U.S. Treasury Department.
In addition to the United States, the European Union and the United Kingdom also have sanctioned Prigozhin for spreading disinformation and other activities that threaten countries' security.
Private companies like Facebook (now known as Meta) and Twitter also have acted against Prigozhin's internet operations in Africa, including:
Facebook in 2020 removed fake Prigozhin-linked accounts that promoted Russia's policies and targeted primarily the Central African Republic and, to a lesser extent, Madagascar, Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea, Mozambique and South Africa.
Twitter in 2021 removed Prigozhin-linked accounts that relied on a mix of inauthentic and real accounts to introduce a pro-Russia viewpoint in the Central African Republic.
Facebook earlier this year removed Prigozhin-linked accounts in Nigeria, Cameroon, The Gambia, Zimbabwe and DRC that attempted to trick local journalists into writing favorable stories about Russia.
Turning to the Wagner Group
The Associated Press reported that this undated photograph provided by the French military shows Wagner Group forces in Mali. (© French Army/AP)
In some parts of Africa, the Russian government has turned to the Wagner Group, which Prigozhin helps finance, to help achieve Putin's foreign policy goals. Wagner is often associated with a barrage of targeted disinformation.
Despite its name, the Wagner Group is not a single unified organization. Kevin Limonier, a Wagner Group specialist who teaches geopolitics at the University of Paris 8, called the group "a galaxy of organizations with different names that are hard to trace."
A 2019 Carnegie Endowment for International Peace report says, "Wagner is a vehicle the Kremlin uses to recruit, train, and deploy mercenaries, either to fight wars or to provide security and training to friendly regimes."
Wagner Group forces have been deployed in Ukraine, Syria, Libya, the Central African Republic, Mozambique and, most recently, Mali.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov acknowledged in May that Wagner was in Mali, but only on a "commercial basis." In March, local officials in the town of Moura told Human Rights Watch that a group of Russian-speaking and Malian forces executed at least 300 civilians. The Center for Strategic and International Studies identified Wagner forces as involved and called the attack "the worst atrocity in the decade-long conflict in Mali."

Service Ceiling
B-1B taking off during Operation Allied Force.
Conceived as a strictly nuclear bomber, the B-1B has now adopted a conventional mission over and above the nuclear penetration role.
The cockpit is practically laid out, with key systems sensibly positioned.
Loading the bombs is a slow process unless separate teams are loading all three weapons bays simultaneously.
A B-1B dropping a stick of retarded Mk 82 bombs, fitted with AIR tails.
A B-1B Lancer being prepared for a mission with a payload of Mk 82 bombs.
The B-1B is equipped with four F101-GE-102 turbofan engines.
The B-1B is highly manoeuvrable and its fighter-like agility is paramount for low-level penetration.
The B-1B Lancer was developed by Rockwell International, now Boeing Defense And Space Group, and is the US Air Force long-range strategic bomber. The B-1B has the largest internal payload of any current bomber. The B-1B became operational in 1986. In July 2001, the US Department of Defense announced plans to cut its B-1B inventory from 92 to 67 as a cost-saving measure. The first aircraft was withdrawn from service in August 2002. Following Operation Iraqi Freedom, it was decided that there should be 67 aircraft in the fleet.
The remaining fleet operates from Dyess AFB, Texas (38 aircraft) and Ellsworth AFB, South Dakota (29 aircraft). The B-1B is expected to in be service until 2025. In May 2010, Boeing B-1 bomber has completed its 25th Anniversary of operations at Dyess US Air Force Base.
The low radar cross section, variable-geometry wings, modern avionics, and afterburning engines enable the B-1 to carry the largest payload strike and offers long range, maneuverability, high speed and survivability.
In March 2008, the B-1B became the first aircraft to fly at supersonic speed using synthetic fuel. The fuel was a 50/50 blend of conventional JP-8 petroleum and a synthetic fuel derived from natural gas using the Fischer-Tropsch process. The flight was part of an ongoing USAF programme to certify the alternative fuel for all USAF aircraft.
B-1B Lancer upgrade programme
In February 2009 Boeing received a $45m contract from the US Air Force to upgrade avionics software on the B-1 heavy bomber. The contract ensures that B-1 crews are well equipped to meet its ever-expanding role.
Boeing has recently upgraded the B-1 aircraft with a fully integrated data link (FIDL) and the upgraded aircraft took its maiden flight in July 2009. The upgrades included cockpit modifications, new processors, colour displays and communications architecture, enhancing B-1 crews' situational awareness and communications capability and Ethernet network.
The FIDL system reduces the workload of the crew by automatically retasking the weapons system. Boeing Integrated Defense Sytems is expecting a contract in November 2010 from the USAF to installing FIDL systems in its B-1 fleet.
"In March 2008, the B-1B became the first aircraft to fly at supersonic speed using synthetic fuel."
A Sustainment Block Program (SBP) was unveiled in 2003. The program includes upgrading the nation's 67 B-1B long-range heavy bombers fleet with advanced software avionics every year.
In December 2007, a $45m contract was awarded to Boeing, by the USAF, for improving the B-1B bomber's avionics software as part of the SBP. The contract enabled work to start on the Sustainment Block SB14. SB 14 underwent flight test at Edwards Air Force Base, California and was delivered in 2011.
A $28m contract of Phase 1, which included hardware and software development, was completed in April 2009.
B-1 bomber Sustainment Block SB 16 upgrades
The USAF has also awarded an $84m contract to Boeing in October 2009, under the SBP, for upgrading the Sustainment Block SB 16 of B-1 bomber fleet with state of the art avionics software.
The upgrades encompass changes to navigation, weapon delivery, radar, electrical multiplexing, communication/navigation management system software, controls and displays. The design and development of the SB 16 is yet to begin.
The USAF awarded a $23m contract to Boeing in November 2009 to upgrade the B-1 Laptop Controlled Targeting Pod software of Phase 2 development. The upgrade will allow the targeting system of B-1 to identify both stationary and moving targets.
Integration of the sniper pod with the aircraft's software which will deliver single-moving-target kill capability using the Guided Bomb Unit-54 (GBU-54) Laser Joint Direct Attack Munition (Laser JDAM) will be completed as part of Phase 2.
A Boeing B-1 bomber aircraft successfully completed the Phase I of flight tests in December 2009 following an upgrade with fully integrated data link (FIDL). The upgrade replaced 25-year-old avionics processing, displays and keyboards.
Flight testing of the B-1 Lancer started in June 2010 following an upgrade using new digital avionics for the aft cockpit and a line-of-sight Link 16 data link. The Link 16 data link was tested by sending and receiving text messages, and receiving virtual mission assignment data such as target coordinates for a weapon. Three flight tests were executed in June 2010 under B-1 programme and additional flight tests ran until January 2011.
The aircraft is operated by four crew: pilot, co-pilot, defensive systems operator (DSO) and offensive systems operator (OSO).
The DSO station is equipped with the interface for AIL Systems, Inc's ALQ-161 defensive avionics system and a Honeywell multifunction display linked to the aircraft's offensive avionics system (OAS). The OSO station is equipped with two Honeywell multifunction displays linked to the OAS.
Rockwell Collins received a contract in February 2004 to upgrade the displays to 5in×7in colour multifunction displays using active matrix liquid crystal (AMLCD) technology.
B-1B missile and bomb payloads
The B-1B is no longer armed with nuclear weapons but is capable of carrying the AGM-86B air launch cruise missile (ALCM) and the AGM-69 short-range attack missile.
The aircraft has three internal weapon bays and six external hardpoints under the fuselage. The maximum internal weapons payload is 75,000lb and maximum external weapons payload is 59,000lbs.
The B-1B weapons payload is: 24 GBU-31 joint direct attack munition (JDAM) at one time or a combination of 24 mk84 2,000lb general purpose bombs, eight mk65 naval mines, 84 mk82 500lb general purpose bombs, 84 mk62 500lb naval mines, 30 CBU-87, -89, -97 cluster munitions, 30 CBU-103, -104, -105 wind-corrected munitions dispensor (WCMD), 24 AGM-158 joint air to surface stand-off missiles (JASSM) or 12 AGM-154 joint stand-off weapons (JSOW).
"The B-1B Lancer's countermeasures include dispensers for expendable decoys including chaff and flares."
The Boeing JDAM uses global positioning system / inertial navigation guidance for delivery of the 1,000lb mk83, 1,000lb BLU-110, 2,000lb mk84 and 2,000lb BLU-109. It has a range up to 15 miles and strike precision within 13m.
The Lockheed Martin JASSM is a long-range precision standoff cruise missile with digital jam-resistant global positioning system (GPS) / inertial navigation guidance and infrared seeker.
JASSM weighs 1,020kg (2,250lb) and has a range over 370km (200nm) and a dual-mode penetrator and blast fragmentation warhead.
JASSM-ER has a range of 926km (500nm). The B-1B successfully launched the first JASSM-ER missile in June 2006.
The Raytheon JSOW AGM-154A carries BLU-97 combined effects bomblets and is in full-rate production. The blast / fragmentation unitary variant AGM-154A-1 which incorporates the 500lb BLU-111 (mk82) is under development.
The AGM-154B carries BLU-108 sensor fused weapon (SFW) submunitions and has completed engineering and manufacturing development (E&MD).
AGM-154C (JSOW-C) entered full-rate production in February 2005. It incorporates an uncooled imaging infrared (IIR) terminal seeker and tracker and has a BROACH dual-stage blast / fragmentation and/or penetrator warhead, developed by BAE Systems. JSOW has an unpowered range of 22km (12nm) low-altitude launch, 130km (70nm) high-altitude launch and a powered range of up to 325km (175nm).
B-1B aircraft were fitted with the AN/AAQ-33 Lockheed Martin Sniper ATP advanced targeting pod in June 2008. Sniper includes a mid-wave FLIR (forward-looking infrared), dual mode laser, CCD-TV, laser spot tracker and IR marker. Sniper gives the B-1B the capability for self- identification of targets and bomb damage assessment. The first series of flight tests with the new pod took place in February 2007. The B-1B equipped with the Sniper ATP made its first operational deployment in August 2008 in support of Operation Enduring Freedom.
Conventional mission upgrade programme
With the end of the Cold War, the USAF instituted the B-1B conventional mission upgrade programme.
This series of upgrades involves: Block C (completed 1997) – capability to drop cluster bombs; Block D (completed June 2001) included deployment of JDAM, new defensive system, new navigation and communications systems including the fitting of GPS to enable the dropping of satellite-guided munitions such as JDAM, and an AN/ALE-50 towed decoy system; Block E (entered service in 2005 and completed in September 2006) – capability to deploy JSOW (joint stand-off weapon), wind-compensated munitions dispenser (WCMD) and JASSM (joint air to surface stand-off missile).
"The B-1B is equipped with four 30,000lb thrust class F101-GE-102 turbofan engines."
JASSM entered service on the B-1 in May 2005. Block F – the defensive system upgrade programme (DSUP) – was terminated by the USAF.
As part of the Block E computer upgrade programme, in May 2002 a B-1B successfully targeted three different weapon types (mk84 bomb, mk82 bomb and CBU-89 cluster munitions) against three separate targets. In July 2003, the B-1B made the first JSOW drop from a long-range bomber.
Countermeasures
The EDO Corporation AN/ALQ-161 defensive avionics suite provides jamming against early warning radars and the fire control radars of missiles and anti-air guns. The processing algorithms are installed on an IBM AP-101F digital computer. The system also incorporates Northrop Grumman jamming transmitters, Raytheon phased array antennas and a tail warning pulse Doppler radar, which gives rear-facing hemispherical coverage.
The system's countermeasures include dispensers for expendable decoys including chaff and flares. The defensive system upgrade programme (DSUP), which includes the AN/ALR-56 radar warner and the BAE Systems integrated defensive ECM suite (IDECM), developed for the F/A-18 fighter aircraft, is on hold but may receive funding in the future.
The Northrop Grumman APQ-164 offensive radar system is a multi-mode radar with an electronically scanned phased array antenna, which provides high-resolution terrain mapping, velocity data, beacon modes, terrain avoidance, terrain following, position data, weather detection, rendezvous and calibration modes.
Navigation and communications
The aircraft has Honeywell ASN-131 radar altimeter, Kearfott inertial navigation system, Northrop Grumman (Teledyne Ryan) APN-218 Doppler radar velocity sensor (DVS), Honeywell APN-224 radar altimeter, Rockwell Collins ARN-118 TACAN tactical air navigation system and Rockwell Collins ARN-108 instrument landing system (ILS).
"B-1B has the largest current internal bomber payload."
The communications suite includes ASC-19 AFSATCOM satellite communications, Rockwell Collins long range ARC-190 HF radio, Honeywell KY-58 secure voice line-of-sight encryption device, Rockwell Collins ARC-171 UHF line-of-sight communications radio system, ARR-85 secure or open line-of-sight system and APX-101A IFF (identification friend or foe).
B-1B engines
The B-1B is equipped with four 30,000lb thrust class F101-GE-102 turbofan engines from General Electric. An in-flight refuelling receptacle allows refuelling from a KC-10 or a KC-135 tanker.
The B-1 Lancer can fly at a maximum speed of 1,448km/h. Its service ceiling is 9,144m. The aircraft weighs around 86,182kg and its maximum take-off weight is 216,363kg.

50th Anniversary Benefit
The roots of the Winnetka Youth Organization extend back to 1966 when there was a widespread adult misunderstanding and concern about the changing behavior of young people.
At that time, the Tri-Church Council which consisted of ministers and lay members of the Winnetka Congregational Church, Christ Church of Winnetka, and local Presbyterian Churches worked to provide constructive recreational programs for youth, which was the original focus of the WYO.
It soon became apparent, however, that recreation alone would not meet the needs of many of the young people, and that the WYO services would need to be expanded to help them guide through adolescence in more in-depth and constructive ways. In 1969, the informal group of Winnetka citizens known as the Winnetka Youth Recreation Committee was incorporated as the Winnetka Youth Organization, a not-for-profit charity organization.
The WYO, in its current home in the basement of the Winnetka Community House, now provides a safe place for all teens in grades 7th-12th to socialize with peers, benefit from mentorship relationships with the staff, experience creative expression through music and the arts, and get involved in the community through social service opportunities.

(HealthDay)—The vaccine against human papillomavirus (HPV) is highly effective in young women—and may even offer some protection to those who don't get it, a new study suggests.
Researchers said the findings add to evidence that the vaccine—which ultimately cuts the risk of several cancers—is a boon to public health.
According to Kahn's team, it points to what's called "herd protection"—where everyone benefits from having a large portion of the population vaccinated against a particular disease.

Philippines, China eye joint exploration in disputed waters
MANILA: China and the Philippines are discussing joint mineral exploration in the South China Sea despite an ongoing territorial conflict over the strategic waterway, Manila's foreign secretary said yesterday, reports AFP.
The two countries, long embroiled in a dispute over their competing claims to the area, are hoping talks will open the door for them to jointly tap its resources, Secretary Alan Peter Cayetano said.
"We are pushing it aggressively because we need it," Cayetano told reporters, adding the countries would each form a working group to explore options for joint exploration.
"Then we will find a framework under our constitution that will allow us... joint exploration," he said.
"We both want it."
The South China Sea is a major trading route and fishing ground believed to have vast mineral resources, and is also claimed by Brunei, Malaysia, Taiwan and Vietnam.
Beijing asserts sovereignty over almost all of the area but in 2016 a UN-backed tribunal acting on a case brought by then-Philippine leader Benigno Aquino rejected its claims.
Current president Rodrigo Duterte, who took office in mid-2016, has since alarmed defence analysts and lawyers by down-playing the Philippine claim and largely setting aside the ruling so as to accomodate China—which is promising military and economic aid. But on Friday Cayetano said the Philippines would consult with "international legal experts" to make sure any accord would not hurt Philippine sovereign rights.
"Whatever we do, it will not only (be) in accordance with Philippine law but also the UNCLOS," referring to the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea.
He stressed the talks would only cover exploration, not actual development. "Right now, we have not (been) discussing developments. We are discussing exploration first. What's the use of the debate whether or not the constitution allows a joint development if we don't know if there is anything we can harvest," he said.

The South China Sea is a major trading route and fishing ground believed to have vast mineral resources, and is also claimed by Brunei, Malaysia, Taiwan and Vietnam. Beijing asserts sovereignty over almost all of the area but in 2016 a UN-backed tribunal acting on a case brought by then-Philippine leader Benigno Aquino rejected its claims. Current president Rodrigo Duterte, who took office in mid-2016, has since alarmed defence analysts and lawyers by down-playing the Philippine claim and largely setting aside the ruling so as to accomodate Chinawhich is promising military and economic aid. But on Friday Cayetano said the Philippines would consult with international legal experts to make sure any accord would not hurt Philippine sovereign rights. Whatever we do, it will not only (be) in accordance with Philippine law but also the UNCLOS, referring to the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea. He stressed the talks would only cover exploration, not actual development. Right now, we have not (been) discussing developments. We are discussing exploration first. Whats the use of the debate whether or not the constitution allows a joint development if we dont know if there is anything we can harvest, he said.

1) Load the smoker with the wood chunks and then the wings. When the wings are fully smoked (takes about 2 hours at 225 degrees), transfer them to a hot grill. This makes them crispy and the grill marks always look appetizing.
*If you don't have a smoker, you can heat one side of grill and place the chicken on the opposite side for slow cooking.
2) Mix the hot and BBQ sauces (adjust the mixture to taste, I likes mine hot as possible) then add the cooked wings and toss - and save some sauce for dipping. For more dipping, mix the blue cheese dressing with the crumbled blue cheese.

Superman - Ride of Steel is ranked the #1 coaster on the planet by Park World Magazine and is a recent recipient of the prestigious Amusement Today Golden Ticket Award ranking the ride the best steel coaster in the world!
Standing a staggering 310 feet tall and reaching speeds of a remarkable 93 mph, the $25 million Millennium Force "giga-coaster" was the tallest and fastest roller coaster in North America when it debuted in May 2000.
The Nitro blasts off to an unbelievable 230 feet with a 215 foot dive back to Earth at hyper-speeds approaching 80 mph. Seven steep and dramatic drops, double highly-banked horizontal loops, an S-curve and high-speed "hammer head" featuring intense, tight twists and turns are jam-packed into this ride.
Guests can live the legend of DC Comics' Superman, The World's Greatest Super Hero, as their experience on SUPERMAN-Ride of Steel. Based on the popular DC Comics super hero, Superman-Ride of Steel gives riders a bird's eye view of the park before plunging nearly 200 feet at speeds of greater than 70 mph.
The name SheiKra evokes the power and speed of an African hawk as it twists and plunges - giving riders a 70 mph, adrenaline-pumping experience like no other. At 200 feet, SheiKra now takes the crown as Florida's tallest roller coaster. This thrill machine is also the tallest dive coaster in the world and the first of its kind to incorporate an Immelmann loop (a rolling maneuver), a second, 138-foot dive into an underground tunnel and a water-feature finale. SheiKra offers three minutes of over-the-edge excitement on more than half a mile of steel track.
Soar like the Man of Steel on Superman, a high-speed steel LIM supercoaster. Exceeding speeds of 70 mph, it climbs a 208-foot lift hill, and then comes screaming down - at a 70 degree angle!
Storm Runner is a one-of-a-kind coaster that will launch you from 0-72 mph in 2 seconds flat. 18 stories straight up, straight down. And that's just the beginning. You'll fly through a 135 foot cobra loop, barrel rolls, and a dramatic flying snake dive so fast, you won't know which way is west.
Apollo's Chariot is Busch Gardens Williamsburg's thrilling hypercoaster designed to reach great height and super speeds. The pulse-quickening journey plummets passengers a total of 825 feet. Continually voted "a top ten steel roller coaster," Apollo's Chariot boasts nine drops, the first of which plunges passengers down 210 feet of steel track. You will experience periods of weightlessness, or "air time," as you race up and down the camelback humps at 73 mph.
XCELERATOR hydraulically launches you off the line at an electrifying top speed of 82 mph in 2.3 seconds through an exhilarating 205-foot ascent and immediate descent at a 90-degree angle. And you thought playing back seat bingo at the local passion pit made your heart race! It's no sweat for the two trains, with a capacity of 20 people per train. This hopped up screamer is a 62-second blast from the past for everyone from ankle biters to Big Daddys!

Today is Uzalo actor Nay Maps's birthday and to play our part in service delivery as we so often do oh so diligently – we are serving you some five facts that will help you get to know the crooner. Pay attention!
His real full name is Naymaps Maphalala.
He shot to fame as part of a killer cast on leading SABC 1 telenovela Uzalo, where he plays the part of a certain Mxolisi Xulu, one of two sons who accidentally got swapped at birth. Imagine that headache. But then again, it is such gritting plot twist that have helped the show maintain such a pull with viewers.
The bae hails from Pretoria, which most never see coming with that yummy Zulu accent. Not to say people from Pretoria are unlikely to have a yummy Zulu accent. Never mind. Maphalala came up in Soshanguve and he knew from very early on that acting was his destiny.

Colton Burpo Wiki, Age, Bio, Net Worth, Salary, Facts, Today
Updated on June 27th, 2022
'Does Heaven Exist?' Thousands of theological perspectives have been offered in response to this metaphysical dilemma, and if we consider religions from other civilizations, they have also offered numerous skepticisms. Colton Burpo, on the other hand, told an interesting story that no one could have predicted.
Quick Facts of Colton Burpo
22 Years 0 Month(s)
Sonja Burpo, Todd Burpo
Heaven is a corporeal realm where God resides, according to Christianity, the religion founded on Jesus' teaching. Colton, who was four years old at the time, claimed he traveled there after having a near-death experience and returning to mother earth after seeing Jesus.
Who is Colton Burpo, and how much money does he have?
Colton is a 19-year-old Nebraska teenager who claims to have witnessed Jesus in 'Heaven.' His appendix burst when he was three years and ten months old, and physicians originally classified his illness as stomach flu. Todd Burpo, his pastor father, recalls seeing 'the shadow of death' over his son's face. Todd and his wife Sonja Burpo rushed their son to a different hospital, only to be heartbroken when the surgeon said there was no chance.
Colton miraculously made it out of the hospital bed screaming, and his parents hurried over to him. The youngster told his pastor father about his near-death experience, but it took Todd and Sonja more than a month to learn of their son's incredible story.
He was a four-year-old boy when he shocked his parents by stating that while he was unconscious, he went to heaven and met Jesus Christ, a first-century Jewish religious leader. Colton remembered seeing angels, the Holy Spirit, as well as his sister and great-grandfather.
Sonja, his mother, says, 'He never knew about his sister and great-grandparents.' The mother of a girl and two sons had previously experienced a miscarriage.
In the end, Lynn Vincent and Colton's father, Todd Burpo, wrote a book called 'Heaven is for Real: A Little Boy's Astounding Story of His Trip to Heaven and Back.' It also spawned a film adaptation, which starred Gregg Kinnear and Kelly Reilly.
Heaven is for Real not only became a best-seller, but it also became a blockbuster film. According to Box Mojo Office, the $12 million picture earned a total domestic gross of $91,443,253. Despite the fact that the exact figures have not been revealed, Colton and his parents bring up the net worth in 'Heaven is for Real.'
Colton Burpo Facts
The following are some interesting facts about Colton Burpo that you should be aware of:
Colton Burpo was born on May 19, 1999, in Nebraska, a midwestern United States state. Colton Burpo was raised as the middle child of Sonja and Todd Burpo.
Colon has a younger brother named Colby Burpo and an older sister named Cassie Burpo in his family. According to wiki, his mother Sonja had a miscarriage and lost her child.
Colton's Twitter account is currently inactive. His most recent tweet came on November 20, 2017, in which he wished his followers a 'Happy Groundhog Day.'

Industry rising stars ZingBikes have taken the step to protect their customers by signing up to fit the MASTER Security Scheme as standard on all of their models. The added security given as a result will bring peace of mind to ZingBikes customers as the MASTER scheme, having been developed in close collaboration with the Police, uses state of the art Datatag marking technology. This helps to prevent criminals breaking bikes down into parts to rebuild and sell on and more than halves the risk of theft.
With over 25,000 UK motorcyclists falling victim each year, theft is a major concern for the Motorcycle Industry Association. To counteract this they recently launched MASTER , the first ever official industry wide security marking scheme. Backed by major motorcycle manufacturers, the Police, ACPO and the Home Office, the scheme uses Datatag ID's proven technology in the fight against criminal gangs and, according to the Metropolitan Police Stolen Vehicle Squad, this will have a dramatic effect on theft of new machines.
ZingBikes join a growing number of top brands who are fighting back to beat the thieves and together with the industry are doing something to end its effect on Britain's bikers for good.
Existing owners of any make can also protect themselves by fitting a Datatag motorcycle security kit. With a retail selling price of just £89.99 and available through local motorcycle dealers, Datatag's new invisible UV marking kit offers protection from theft and peace of mind for owners across the UK.


AFC Wimbledon will be a different proposition this to the one which faced Plymouth back in August when they return to Home Park this Saturday.
So says boss Neal Ardley, who admits he was tactically outgunned by opposite number Derek Adams when the two sides met at Kingsmeadow for the season curtain-raiser at Kingsmeadow in August.
Ardley claims his team has come a long way since that brief flirtation with a 3-4-3 formation, but that Plymouth too have built on that promising start to be among the promotion frontrunners.
Consequently, he believes it will be a very different game at Home Park.
"The first game of the season once they withstood our storm in the first half then they took control of the game," he said.
"We were trying a new system then and it got found out.
"We are a different team and so are they probably. We are pushing for the playoffs while they are pushing for automatic promotion, so it will be a good game.
Will AFC Wimbledon make the play-offs?


Lej Table No. 21 hos Itunes for 39 kr.
The unemployed Vivaan (Rajeev Khandelwal) and Siya (Tena Desae), like any other ordinary couple, are working hard to make ends meet. They win a chance to make a trip to the beautiful islands of Fiji in a lucky draw contest. Not only is this holiday fully paid for, with a stay at one of the finest hotels, but they also get invited to dine at Suva, Fiji's finest resort for their wedding anniversary. At the resort they encounter the charming Mr. Khan (Paresh Rawal). Mr. Khan invites the couple to take part in a live game show named 'Table 21' which offers a staggering amount of money as the prize. The rules are simple. Eight questions will be asked regarding their personal life. All these questions must be answered truthfully, and they have to do the task assigned to each question. The questions first seem very easy to answer, but as the game goes on the tasks became horrid making Vivaan remember his past in college. His last task is to kill someone. When he sees his target he recognizes him from his past. In a flashback, Vivaan recalls that him and his friends ragged a boy (the target) named Akram so severely that he lost all semblance of sanity. Back in the present, it is revealed that Akram is the son of Mr. Khan and that Mr. Khan's intention was to show Vivaan and Siya the extent of the damage inflicted by their actions. The movie ends with Mr. Khan telling them that they are free to go but the sin of what they did will shadow them forever.


It is illegal to keep wildlife without a permit. There is no such thing as a "wildlife pet permit" in Texas. If caught, the animals will be confiscated, sometimes destroyed by officials, and you can be fined.
Wild animals have special needs. Not only is it difficult to find veterinary care but wild animals also require special food and caging.
Wild animals need to be with their own kind. A baby wild animal raised by itself will not know how to interact with other members of its own species. It may be cute now but will grow up to be a wild adult, possibly becoming aggressive and dangerous in captivity. Being imprinted on people will hinder its survival in the wild. Each year we receive numerous "ex-pets" that have become too difficult or are no longer cute and cuddly. Unfortunately, they were not taught the proper skills to survive in the wild. Some can be rehabilitated over time, but often it is too late, and the animals must either be euthanized or destined to a life in captivity.
Wild animals carry diseases. Parasites and diseases can be carried by wildlife and transmitted to humans, especially children, and domestic pets These can be serious and even fatal.
Wild animals belong in the wild. Wild animals become very stressed in a captive environment. They are born with wild instincts and deserve to be free to act on those instincts the way that nature intended.

Woman Wears Dream Wedding Dress Again for 60th Anniversary.
Jack Leahy
When bride-to-be Carol Bates stepped into The Wedding Bell in Tacoma, Washington, in 1957, she laid her eyes on a beautiful white gown. She knew immediately that she'd found the perfect dress.
What she didn't know was that the gown would be worn again and again for generations to come, making it a family symbol of lasting love.
About planning her wedding back in 1957, Bates told Today that her sister had intended to make her wedding gown, but once Bates saw the dress in The Wedding Bell, she knew she had to have it. The dress has been worn three more times since.
Thirty years after Bates' wedding, her daughter, one of the four Bates children wore it at her own wedding.
Twenty years after that, Bates wore the dress for her 50th wedding anniversary, and wore it most recently for her 60th anniversary this past weekend, when the couple renewed their vows in front of friends and family.
Read: This Couple Had No Photos From Their 1946 Marriage. So They Took These 70 Years Later.
All these years later, two things have remained the same in this dress's long journey: love (of course) and The Wedding Bell. The couple has repeatedly returned to the store for alterations.
"It's a different owner [than in 1957], but with the same loving, genuine delight, they helped me get it all ready," Carol said. The feelings are mutual, as Kim Miller, the shop's owner, says she loves helping Carol. "She's such an adorable woman," Miller told Today. "I bought the store 10 years ago and she came in right after to get the dress altered for her 50th anniversary, and now she's back getting it altered for her 60th anniversary!"
The couple met when Carol was just 14. She and Bob spotted each other at a dance party with friends. Carol admits to blushing when Bob winked at her. He asked her to another dance the following weekend.
"My parents said, 'No, not alone, but if we happen to go to the dance, and he happens to be there, that's fine,'" Carol recalls. "Well, we happened to be there and so did he."
Bob proposed as soon as Carol graduated from high school.
While the seams of the dress may be worn by now, the love Bob and Carol have for one another holds tight, even through ups and downs.
"No. 1, we're not afraid to voice our opinion, but we respect one another and just because we have a different opinion, it doesn't mean we don't love one another. We've learned that we all make mistakes. We admit our mistakes. We ask forgiveness, and we get up and we go forward,"
Carol said, adding the couple's love is as strong, or stronger now than it ever was.
Yep, they're adorable. No doubt The Wedding Bell will be waiting for Carol's next visit, just like we'll be waiting for those new anniversary photos!

UK expresses 'grave concerns' as pro-Beijing candidates dominate Hong Kong polls
Martina Bet, PA Political Staff
The UK and four other nations have issued a joint statement expressing their "grave concerns" after pro-Beijing candidates claimed a victory in Hong Kong's Legislative Council elections.
The foreign ministers of Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the United Kingdom and the United States' secretary of state said "actions that undermine Hong Kong's rights, freedoms and high degree of autonomy are threatening our shared wish to see Hong Kong succeed".
The five nations urged the People's Republic of China to "act in accordance with its international obligations" to respect protected rights and fundamental freedoms in Hong Kong, including those guaranteed under the Sino-British Joint Declaration.
Candidates loyal to Beijing won a majority of the seats in Sunday's election after China passed a resolution to ensure only "patriots" could run.
Under the new rules, the number of directly elected legislators was reduced from 35 to 20, but the size of the legislature increased from 70 to 90 seats.
Most of the legislators were appointed by largely pro-Beijing bodies, to make sure that they would make up the majority of the legislature.
The election witnessed a record low turnout, reflecting the decline in political engagement after Beijing's overhaul of the city's electoral processes.

The foreign ministers and the US secretary of state said in their statement: "We, the Foreign Ministers of Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom, and the United States Secretary of State, noting the outcome of the Legislative Council elections in Hong Kong, express our grave concern over the erosion of democratic elements of the Special Administrative Region's electoral system. Actions that undermine Hong Kong's rights, freedoms and high degree of autonomy are threatening our shared wish to see Hong Kong succeed.
"Since handover, candidates with diverse political views have contested elections in Hong Kong. Yesterday's election has reversed this trend. The overhaul of Hong Kong's electoral system introduced earlier this year reduced the number of directly elected seats and established a new vetting process to severely restrict the choice of candidates on the ballot paper. These changes eliminated any meaningful political opposition.
"Meanwhile, many of the city's opposition politicians – most notably the majority of the 'NSL 47' – remain in prison pending trial, with others in exile overseas."
The five nations also said they "remain gravely concerned at the wider chilling effect of the National Security Law and the growing restrictions on freedom of speech and freedom of assembly, which are being felt across civil society".
They added: "Protecting space for peaceful alternative views is the most effective way to ensure the stability and prosperity of Hong Kong. We urge the People's Republic of China to act in accordance with its international obligations to respect protected rights and fundamental freedoms in Hong Kong, including those guaranteed under the Sino-British Joint Declaration."

Worship of Jesus Christ and Krishna,raises storm
Bright and soothing pictures of two super natural entities-one of Christianity and another of Hinduism -Jesus Christ and Lord Krishna-sharing a platform and Aarti offered to them regularly inside the Yogda Ashram in Ranchi,may confirm secular credentials of the Yogda Satsanga Society(YSS) of India.But not all YSS members take it as such and appreciate veneration and worshiping of Jesus Christ and Lord Krishna together.
"This proves that those who are managing the Society today are out to Christianise it.We can not tolerate it",fumes Moti Lal Gupta,a member of the YSS,who had issued a statement criticizing it.
Paramhansa Yogananda
YSS,a non profit religious organization founded by Paramhansa Yogananda in 1917,is also known in countries outside the Indian subcontinent as Self Realisation Fellowship(SRF).
For almost ninty five years,these two bodies running and managing atleast four centres located in Ranchi,Dakshineshwar,Kolkata,NOIDA,Delhi and Ranikhet,Uttrakhand,were dedicated to carrying on the spiritual and humanitarian work of its founder who is widely revered as the father of Yoga in the west.
Yogananda established YSS to make available the universal teachings of "Kriya Yoga",a spiritual science of "Pranayama"-life-force control and meditation techniques in India."These nonsectarian teachings embody a complete philosophy and way of life for achieving all-round success and well-being, as well as methods of meditation for achieving life's ultimate goal — union of the soul with Spirit (God)",claims a document published by the YSS.
But Gupta,who was associated with YSS and SRF for decades,has alleged that all those men who were managing these two bodies today,were using the name of Paramhansa Yogananda to "Christianise"the YSS.
Lord Jesus
His allegations include:
*The pictures of two Hindu Gods-Shiva and Krishna-were removed from the latest edition of the Autobiography of a Yogi.
*Two rituals-"Hawan"and "Bramhnandam" performed at Dakshineshwar and Yogda Ashram Ranchi on a regular basis in the past were withdrawn.
*During the course of Yoga Kriya,the devotes were asked to swear by Jesus Christ.
"I have documentary evidences to show how the YSS and SRF have changed over the years to the effect that Christ instead of Shiva and Krishna was revered by the members of these bodies.This is against the spirit of Yogda movement started by Paramhansa",alleged Gupta.
Asked for his reaction,YSS's Incharchge(Public Relations)Nishthanandji said:"Yogda movement was based on the ideals of secularism.It aimed to bring unity between the East and the West and was in the heart of Paramhansa Yogananda.We have done nothing wrong."

Monetary union and media stress: young Greeks and Germans debate
Georgios Kokkolis Sonje Schwennsen
Translation by:
Nabeelah Shabbir
This month, Greece was announced to be suffering a eurozone deficit of 12% - the maximum is 3%. The German media has called them the 'deceivers of the euro-family'. The Greeks respond that they are hypocrites, holding them accountable for debts from 1945. Who wants whose diplomatic blood? We hear immediate reactions from the two sides
The Greek point of view
'It appears that the Germans found the missing hand of the statue of Aphrodite, who graces Focus magazine's weekly cover, published on 22 February. Impressive; Aphrodite of Melos is one of the numerous Greek artifacts which can be found in European capitals. And Europeans in general have good reason for their ire at Greece; all these years, it was consuming more than it was producing at the expense of other member states. However, it's easy to ask Greece to cut its defense expenditure when your neighboring countries are Belgium, Luxembourg or Denmark. It's easy when you never ask Turkey to respect the Greek borders and end up recognising the latter as a European border in order to make a cut in defense expenditure feasible; Greece buys weapons from Germany and France, right?
Sure, the Germans shouldn't bail out the Greeks. Nor did Athens ask Berlin for money. We don't want them to pay for our mistakes, but wouldn't it be right for them to reimburse the Greeks for all they have done during the two world wars? Germany has owed Greece more than 10 billion euros since 1945. When the nazis destroyed almost all the infrastructures, they enforced occupied Greece to take a loan of more than 3.5 billion dollars in order for them to support the German military economy.
'Maastricht was good for the prosperous days, but things have changed'
The argument that 'through NATO and the EU, Germany has paid much more than it owed to Greece' is pure populism. Examine how money culminates within the EU; indeed, the wealthier states help the weaker states. However, the latter also have to contribute to the new states. We end up talking about a culmination of money, not of reimbursement. Certainly, the EU has given a lot of money to Greece over the last 25 years. However politics are not heaven-cooked. In 2009, Germany gave Greece 1.3 billion euros via the EU budget. Thank to German exports to Greece, Germany made a surplus of 4 billion euros.
The Greek problem reveals a European problem: you cannot have a monetary union without having an economic union. Maastricht was good for the prosperous days, but things have changed. The EU needs mechanisms in order to prevent future problems. Ireland (their deficit is 10.75%, after Greece and Spain at 11.25% - ed) and various other EU countries also face severe problems; 'whether the sea is on the wrong side or we are sailing on the wrong side,' as the Greek proverb goes. As the euro sinks against the dollar, German products become more attractive and competitive in world markets. You can't help an alcoholic by handing him a bottle of whiskey. But a bit of support costs nothing - within a 'family', you are obliged to.'

The German point of view
'What are the Greeks complaining about actually? What did they expect? Over the years they've been so casual in hiding the immense cracks in their budgetary policy, knowingly fiddling the other member states with falsified data, and when the 'good stuff' finally hits the fan, then we should simply leave all these contracts broken and help get Greece out of their hole? It's not that simple. The Hellenic people have been living above their means for too long now, and the bill has to be settled – by Greece itself.
The Germans are quite resentful in their reaction to the Greek crisis, as it was they who lost the most when the euro was introduced: Germany's central bank, the Bundesbank, once dominated European monetary policy, so that other member states then always felt forced to stick to a more German policy. The Bundesbank lost its almost boundless autonomy through the monetary union. In return, they demanded that the monetary union be run on solid grounds – on the basis of the Maastricht criteria and the European stability pact (an agreement to limit budget deficits for eurozone countries - ed). Now that it's clear how the Greek government has shamelessly abused that trust, it's understandable that Germany feels like their toes have been treaded on.
'It's understandable that Germany feels like their toes have been treaded on'
Up until now, the German media has very openly criticised Greek errors: not only with regards to their own budgetary policy, but also to their evident lack of competitiveness. But instead of thinking about the criticism levered on them, the Greeks have taken it to heart. They're offended, because the Germans generally expect things in return, even in exchange for solidarity; the Germans shake their heads at how Greek workers vehemently protest against their retirement age being raised from 61 to 63 (by 2015). In comparison though, Germany raised its own retirement age from 65 to 67.
The strategy of making Germany the scapegoat for a domestically fudged problem makes no sense. Instead of accusing the Germans of slandering Greece and to apologise for the obscure 'financial nazis' accusation (the Greek newspaper Eleftheros Typos responded to Focus magazine's cover with a photo montage of the statue of the goddess Victoria holding a nazi swastika on the Brandenburg gate - ed), Greece should take on the responsibility for their mistakes and face the music. The Greeks can even be thankful: they haven't been kicked out of the monetary union; in fact it's looking more and more likely that the other member states will end up helping them financially, despite all the contracts that they have broken. However until that is decided upon, only one thing is being asked – above all from Germany – which the Greek budgetary policy has always lacked in recent years: discipline. And this is both a legitimate and fair request.'

Q: Get my Event to show up in the Properties window I am making a custom Listbox (for the compact framework).
I have made an event (OnDrawItem).  I would like to know how to get my custom event to show up in the event list in the properties window in Visual Studio.
I am using C# and Visual Studio 2008.
Here is an example of my class with the event:
class OwnerDrawnListBox<T> : System.Windows.Forms.Control
{
    // Other List Box things

    public DrawItemEventHandler DrawItemEventHandler { get; set; }

    public OwnerDrawnListBox()
    {
       // ListBox init stuff
    }

    // Other ListBox Stuff
}

A: The code in your example does not create an event, you've created a property. You need to use the event keyword:
class OwnerDrawnListBox<T> : System.Windows.Forms.Control
{
    // Other List Box things

    public event DrawItemEventHandler DrawItemEventHandler;

    public OwnerDrawnListBox()
    {
       // ListBox init stuff
    }

    // Other ListBox Stuff
}

If it doesn't show up in the properties grid straight away, you might need to rebuild your project. Also, you might want to consider renaming your event to so that it doesn't have the same name as the delegate name (remove the "EventHandler" bit or call it something like "ItemDrawn").
