The Village of Kenaston council would like to update everyone regarding the changes to the Water Treatment Plant Project. At this stage the contractors have completed the concrete work which includes foundation and maintenance pads to place the R.O. unit and associated equipment on. The building has been framed, insulated and sheeted on the exterior and interior. The siding is not quite complete as they are trying to finish the interior completely so they can get the building mechanical and electrical underway ASAP. (The building mechanical would consist of heating and ventilation). The contractors are about 1 week away from finishing the interior and after that will be finishing the exterior. They will also be changing the filter media and doing the process piping starting this month and expect delivery of the R.O. unit early in 2011.

Kenaston Business Plan – 2011 to 2014
The updated Kenaston Business Plan is now posted on the Kenaston website under community profile and the chamber page. See direct links added to the on-line version of this issue.
If you have suggestions or feedback for the business plan please email or call Susan Anholt before January 30th. Additional community input is always welcome and will be brought to the next Chamber meeting for discussion.
Overview since 2007: Community survival is an issue foremost in the minds of all rural communities in Saskatchewan. In 2002 our Chamber membership agreed that we could play a larger role in community development and began discussing ways to initiate community and regional development. The Chamber held strategy meetings and developed an initial four year business plan for 2003 to 2006. This plan was followed by the 2007 – 2010 strategy. Each of these strategies was executed by a volunteer committee.
Over the past four year period our chamber has focused as a group on our business development tools. The chamber has maintained our business plan and has received monthly reports from each project team. Any ideas received from the community have been redirected to the appropriate project team. In 2008 the village assumed ownership of the Kenaston website with site maintenance continued by chamber representatives. Our community billboard is regularly updated with the encouragement to post local events, and the community profile is updated.
We have marketed the community by successfully hosting events such as "CTV Home Town Tour".
Our tourism committee has built a walking trail; repaired, enhanced, maintained and aligned the Snowman Park" to the community theme; achieved a complete restoration of the water tower; and saw the initiation of souvenirs.
A Community Spirit goal has evolved into Crossroads, a bi-monthly community flyer which has been well received in the community. Crossroads is also circulated in an e-format as a cost effective, convenient, and efficient way to reach more residents and friends of the community. As well, new businesses are acknowledged and an annual community picnic is held to celebrate summer and welcome newcomers. Our welcome baskets (contents are donated by chamber members) are delivered to newcomers at the picnic so that we have a gift for them.
Our community beautification goal has seen a general clean-up around town, additional trees planted, and flower beds and planters added to the Veteran's Centennial Park by a chamber representative. The chamber has also initiated an annual cleanup of the walking trail and encourages the village to maintain the community park.
During 2010, the Kenaston Chamber has spent several months reviewing the 2007-2010, reviewed and amending each of the goals. Our proposals have been circulated to the community via the community website.

I can get you to see the duke here soon. IF you will come with me I will show you the path you need to take. He will lead you outside and walk along his fence line on the north side. As you approach the north east end of his fence line you can see a clear trail leading off to the north and east. Larry will tell you that the Duke is two days walk on this trail. If you meet any of his men just tell them your to see the duke and that larry has sent you. The dukes men wear purple and gold on their shields. He bid you fair journey and turns to leave.
The party follows the path to the north and East. You find the path to be well maintained and free of any attacks. The rangers scanning the sides for any type of tracks will note that there is not any orc tracks to be seen at all. The next day as you continue you run into a mounted patrol of men. These men carry the purple and gold shields of the Dukes men. Lionel informs them of who he is and he is offered a ride to the Dukes manor. They will turn and take Lionel with them and any other who wants to come along.
If asked about orcs the patrol will tell you they have seen no orcs or heard of no orcs south and west and south and east of the Manor. They do not patrol any further west than Larrys farm. They do not patrol any due west or north of the manor as the Duke forbids it. That is all they can tell you.
NOTE: See party leader thread for more information about the general area.
The Guard Captain will glare at Oliron and state to Lionel. You best control your man servant before we place his head upon a Pike. He will look straight at Oliron and simple state. IF you have a problem with our patrols may haps you can speak to the Duke yourself and see if he is willing to address such as you. HE motions to his men and they fan out in a escorting formation. The Captain signals to Lionel that they are ready after the last of his twelve men are in place.
They will escort you the rest of the way to the Dukes Stronghold. As you top a rise you can see it through a clearing atop a hill. It has Four strong walls and is square built. The four corners are built out with what looks to be Ballista and even a catapult on the rampart. You can see men moving along the walls by the reflections of the sun on helms. You can see your only about a hour away now.
Say what you wish to do now.
As the road breaks out from the cover of trees you can see the Dukes Stronghold pretty good. The walls are 50 feet high and the four corners are wide. The Stronghold looks well maintained and well financed due to the number of soldiers you see. Thos who are going to stay outside the stronghold step off the roadway just past the clearing. While the rest are escorted into the strong hold.
Those outside see that as the party enters the stronghold the gate is closed. Someone in the outside party needs to post what they are going to do.
As Lionel and Ryorst enter the Strong hold they are escorted to the main manor that is part of the back or North wall. The manor rises four stories and looks like it can defended if the main keeps walls are compromised. The Escorting patrol will stop in front of the manors main gate and dismount. He will say something to the officer at the front gate. This officer looks at Lionel and salutes. HE welcomes you to Duke Thermwoods Manor. If you would come with me I will see to you getting some rooms to freshen up before seeing the Duke himself.
Namdar you can see that this is a keep built for war. You can see that there are many black smiths hard at work on weapons and armor. There seems to be a lot of supplies in this keep. Everyone you talk to have nothing real nice to say about the Duke but nothing real bad. You sense that they really distrust you and your questioning. What do you do now?
I will focus on the outside party for a bit here. I will add more for the inside party soon.
You all move to the woods just west of the road. As your all getting set up in a camp you hear some noises to the north of you. You can not see what is making the noise but it sounds like a large number of bodies moving through the woods with no attempt of trying to be quiet. If you decide to check it out I need to know who is going.
You can hunt deer easy as they are common in the area. Plus a few are headed your way from the noisy passage north of you.
Members inside the Stronghold.
Lionel you will see that the keep is not adorned with riches. Most of the furniture in the rooms you pass by are serviceable and nondescript. It looks like a keep that has enough to be comfortable but comfort is not its goal. You see few tapestries and other hangings. To your eye it looks rather bleak. The officer will tell you he is captain Sorlanth. Your seen to your room. It is a three room suite. The front room has a small cot bed in the far corner for you servant but otherwise it is a just a small parlor for you to have guests visit. The next room is the bed chamber with a nice two person bed covered in thick blankets. The small room off the bed chamber hold the privy. It also has a medium sized tub if you wish to have a bath. Captain Sorlanth bids you good rest and states that a page will fetch you in about two hours to see the Duke. He bows and leaves.
Namdar you will find a person who will talk to you. It is boy of about 12-13 years old whos job it is to shovel out the stalls for the horses. He will tell you that people in this keep really do not like orc or even half orcs. Since the orcs have pretty much taken over the north and west the Duke is doing all he can to maintain some safe passages. He has heard that the Dukes strong hold is still standing because of payments made to the orcs to keep it here. With regular patrols out to the south and east only they are having a hard time keeping the orcs out of those areas. He has heard that the Duke sent a group of thirty well armed troops to the Duke west of here two months ago. Nothing was heard back from them. He has heard that once a week the orcs come a calling and demand a higher price each time. He hopes the duke keeps them all safe and gets rid of the evil creatures.
Outside group. As you creep closer you will notice a number of figures roaming around in local area. As you get closer you can see that they all are orcs. Do you want to get closer for a better look or to get a count of how many there are?
IF you wish to get closer I need three d12 rolls and two % rolls. The % rolls are to see if you can remain hidden.
Say what you wish to do now.
Inside group:
Not long after your both refreshed your receive a knock at your door. Upon opening you see a young lad of about 10 years old. He bows formally to you and asks that you please follow him to see the Duke. He leads you back to the main stairs and down to the main the floor. From there he heads to the right and leads you to a large double set of doors. As you approach the doors open and your ushered inside. You find yourself in a nicely appointed receiving hall. There are a few tapestries and other obvious shows of wealth here. The seats have cushions on them and there are silver candle holders holding most of the candles. Ahead of you sits a man on a small raised Dias. He looks to be about middle aged and he is flanked by a elegantly dressed lady. Slightly behind him stands a rather large man. You can see a great sword over his left shoulder. He is wearing chain mail. to his side is another man that is wearing a deep hood. You can only guess he is a man from his figure. As you approach the Duke arises and welcomes you to his stronghold. As he stands you hear the doors behind you close. Looking back you see a few archers fanning out along the walls. They do not have weapons out. The Duke seeing your questioning look says, "Pardon my guards. With hostile forces about they just want to ensure my continued reign." He looks at Lionel and gives a slight bow. It is not often that a foreign prince enters my stronghold. What brings you to my home?

FREDONIA Poor showing at the start
The OBSERVER's view
As the city of Dunkirk experiences some rough spots with a new beginning with representation, there also are troubles in Fredonia: a lack of quorum. Somewhat unsurprisingly to some, the two Village Board Democrats — Kara Christina and James Lynden — who were fairly loyal to the previous mayor, did not attend Monday's gathering.
Why? That is a good question as both were re-elected and expected to properly represent village residents.
It is a questionable and troublesome beginning. Our hope is that this is a minor misunderstanding.
Once is a mistake. Twice is a trend.

Wildfire threatening Waterton Lakes National Park continues to grow
Flames are expected to reach the Akamina Pass today, increasing risk it will spread to the park
The Kenow wildfire threatening Waterton Lakes National Park has grown to 9,400 hectares in size and has moved five kilometres southeast along the Akamina Valley.
Parks Canada said in a news release that three spot fires have ignited within the park in the Tamarack Basin and helicopter crews are dropping water on the flames.
Crews also bucketed the South Kootenay Pass earlier on Sunday.
The fire could reach the Akamina Pass later today, according to Parks Canada, and fire crews will ignite their own fire in order to steer the flames and reduce the potential for spot fires to ignite from embers.

The fire could spread through the park if it goes over the Akamina Pass and then could threaten the townsite.
On the north end of the fire, Alberta Wildfire is using buckets to drop water, foam and retardant.
Parks Canada is also warning people to be cautious in the area due to heavy smoke, which is reducing visibility and could affect those with health conditions.
That heavy smoke is also making it difficult for crews battling the fire.
Waterton remains closed and crews are in place to protect the townsite should the fire approach.

Feb. 28 (UPI) -- Foreign leaders arrived in Qatar Friday to prepare for a peace agreement that will end nearly two decades of U.S. military involvement in Afghanistan.
Foreign ministers of seven nations and representatives from 50 others are expected to attend the signing ceremony in Doha on Saturday. The ratification of the deal is dependent on a successful conclusion of a weeklong partial truce this week.
Saturday's signing is scheduled to occur at the Taliban's Doha headquarters. The dignitaries began arriving Friday. U.S. Defense Secretary Mark Esper and NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg will visit Kabul Saturday to announce a joint peace declaration with Afghan President Ashraf Ghani.
"Tomorrow is a big day for Afghanistan and for Afghans. It's a great opportunity," Pakistani Foreign Minister Shah Mahmoud Qureshi said. "Afghanistan is moving towards peace and reconciliation. So, tomorrow can set the tone for an inclusive intra-Afghan dialogue."
U.S. President Donald Trump announced Friday that he's sending Secretary of State Mike Pompeo to Doha to observe the signing ceremony.
"These commitments represent an important step to a lasting peace in a new Afghanistan, free from al-Qaida, [the Islamic State], and any other terrorist group that would seek to bring us harm. Ultimately it will be up to the people of Afghanistan to work out their future," Trump said. "We, therefore, urge the Afghan people to seize this opportunity for peace and a new future for their country."
U.S. forces have been in Afghanistan since late 2001 after the terrorist attacks in New York City and Washington, D.C., and Trump for months has indicated a desire to withdraw American troops.
"We want very much to be optimistic first, and, secondly, of course we welcome the peace process," added Uzbek Foreign Minister Abdulaziz Kamilov. "Uzbekistan is immediate neighbor of Afghanistan and over the past many centuries, we had very close humanitarian culture, economic ties with Afghan people."
The peace deal is seen by the United States as a precursor to the more challenging prospect of direct talks between the Taliban and the U.S.-backed Afghan government, which was not involved in the truce negotiations.
Under terms of the deal, the U.S. military will begin a phased withdrawal and the Taliban will start negotiating with the Afghan government, which has always refused to recognize a permanent cease-fire or a power-sharing structure. The format and details of the future talks have not been finalized, but analysts say they could be complicated by division between Ghani and Afghan chief executive Abdullah Abdullah over certain issues.

Effect of Liposomal Bupivacaine (Exparel) on Length of Stay in Total Knee Replacement SurgerySpecific Aims Specific Aim #1: The primary outcomes of this study are to measure the length of stay (LOS), opioid use per 24 hour inpatient time period, and over all opioid rate in total knee replacement (TKA) patients who receive liposomal bupivacaine as compared to standard post-operative pain management protocol. Specific Aim #2: The second aim of this study is to analyze 30 day admissions between the two groups. Methods A Retrospective chart review was used to compare LOS and 24, 48, and 72 hour opioid use between the treatment group, liposomal bupivacaine and the control group consisting of Tucson Medical Center pain management protocol in patients who received a single TKR. Opioid use will be measured by postop 24-hour time intervals: 0-24, 25-48, and 49-72 hrs. All doses of opioids will be converted to oral morphine milligram equivalents (MME) using Tucson Medical Centers Equianalgesic dosing protocol. Non-normal continuous data was analyzed using the Wilcoxon Rank Sum test, normally distributed continuous data was analyzed using an independent t-test and categorical data was analyzed using a 𝜒2 test with the significance level set at 𝑎= 0.05. Main Results: The treatment group had a mean age of 70.7 (years) (SD=8.6), 25 females (50%), 31 right TKR (62%), and 34 surgeries performed by Dr Cohen (68%). The control group consisted of a mean age of 72 (years) (SD=9.4), 32 females (64%), 29 right TKR (58%), and 25 (50%) surgeries performed by Dr Cohen. (table 1) The treatment group had a mean LOS of 47.63 hrs (SD=18.8) vs 64.65 hrs (SD=23.0) (P<0.0001). in the control group. The average 0-24 opioid morphine milligram equivalents for the treatment group was 62.96 mg (SD=31.9) vs 99.00 mg (SD=60.3) (P=<0.001) in the control group . The average 25-48 opioid morphine milligram equivalents for the treatment group was 43.04 mg (SD=35.8) vs 73.04 mg (SD=46.2)(P=<0.001) in the control group . The average 25-48 opioid morphine milligram equivalents for the treatment group was 73.04 mg (SD=38.3) vs 51.06 mg (SD=39.1) (P=0.06) in the control group . Conclusions: Liposomal Bupivacaine was associated with a statically significant shortening of length of stay (47.63 hrs vs 64.65 hrs, P<0.0001) Liposomal Bupivacaine was associated with a statically significant lowering of opioid use over the first 24 and 48 hour inpatient stay (62.96 mg vs 99.0 mg, P=<0.001) Both Liposomal Bupivacaine and control groups had a non-significant difference in opioid use over 49-72 hour inpatient stay (43.3 mg vs 73.04 mg, P=0.06) There were a total of three readmissions, one in the liposomal bupivacaine group and two in the control group a non-significant difference (73.04 mg vs 51.06 mg , P=0.56) Liposomal bupivacaine group was associated with a statically significant lowering of rate (mg/hour) of opioid use over the entire length of stay (2.24 mg/hr vs 3.06 mg/hr, P=0.002)

Big Bang or Big Bounce?
June 20, 2011--During a recent radio interview, Lord Martin Rees mentioned in passing his expectation that in time a new human species will supplant homo sapiens. As master of Trinity College and professor of cosmology and astrophysics at the University of Cambridge, his life work is to think about such things.
This seems plausible. The history of evolution reveals one new species after another arising to replace older species less able to adapt to changing circumstances. Mastodons give way to wooly mammoths, then to modern elephants. Homo sapiens is a lot smarter than homo erectus, long since gone (although the people who text while driving are a possible exception).
I was reminded of the theory of the late Jesuit paleontologist Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, who thought all life could be gradually evolving toward an Omega Point, at which the goals of the Creator would finally be achieved.
Another scientist, Martin Bojoward, author of Once Before Time: a Whole Story of the Universe, is looking for evidence that our universe could conceivably have emerged from the collapse of a previous one. If this theory can be verified, "the big bang will give way to the big bounce." Instead of a universe that emerged just once from a point of infinite density, we will have one that recycles, possibly through an eternal series of expansions and contractions, with no beginning and no end
Maybe, like the theme of the movie Groundhog Day, we get to keep starting over until we get it right.
Meanwhile, if a new species develops, what will the new people be called, homo paragonius? They will have outgrown the hunter-gatherer impulse, upon finding fat or sweets, to eat it all up while it's there. They'll be less aggressive, less prone to road rage and fomenting wars. So they'll live longer in better health than homo sapiens.
If in a few thousand years they also develop immunity to nuclear radiation, they'll replace homo sapiens for sure.

The Seoul Dynasty and sister organization Gen.G Esports will donate all proceeds from an upcoming March homestand, in-game skins and merchandise sales through the end of March to charities helping those affected by the coronavirus, Gen.G COO Arnold Hur announced in a video posted to Seoul Dynasty's Twitter account on Wednesday.
Hur said that the decision was made after talking with players, coaches and other staff members.
"We know this is very small compared to how big of a problem this is," he said, "and we thought this can also be a unique opportunity for us to come together as a community to support those most affected by the virus."
The coronavirus has killed nearly 1,900 people and sickened more than 73,000, most of them in mainland China, CNN reported Wednesday. It has led to the cancellation of several esports events already, including five Overwatch League homestands and action in the Chinese League of Legends Pro League and its developmental league.

I would use car polish.
If it still doesnt come out what your after, use cutters then use polish again.
On the cutters dont go too hard.
Hope that helps.
I have a Levin letterbox grille (non foglight type with plastic face)
As you can see in the pic slightly, the clear is off in some areas and looking somewhat....shit and dull
I have tried the following:
-plasticX meguires
Basically i want to try and restore it to the new CLEAR fresh look again.
Was wondering if anyone has had any experience/suggestion with this particular task/item?
I have researched some methods and so far it looks like this is the best way,
but is still a gamble because most plastics are generally different.
(does anyone know what type of plastic is actually used for this?)
-sand it, gradually with finer grit papers (1200/1500/2000/3000)
-use a fine cutting compound
-use toothpaste
-use a plastic polish/wax
-if still not 100% clear, spray with acrylic clear
Please don't post comments like "buy a new one" or "get a foglight grille"
Id like to assess this option first and then I'll make a decision.

I tried on mine and failed miserably. Mine was very sun damaged and of course, brittle, so it didn't take long to crack. Yours looks ok, so just be careful with pressure. Sand as you have said then use a plastic polish, I use meguires bike stuff that works well.
Thanks for the suggestions
i shouldve mentioned this
ill update the first post, but i have tried the following:
-plasticX meguires
i have a fine cutting meguires compound for cars which i will try but
i dont know if any of the above will work as parts of it, as you can see, have peeled so there will always be a difference in levels. where it hasnt peeled, seems fine still and the plastic itself still seems quite good it terms of being damaged or brittle.
i would be sanding quite lightly and letting most of the weight from my hand with minimal pressure do the work.
Mate just use headlight restoration kit
The one to use is hrk01 you can get it @ bursons or coverntry it has the sandpaper, uv protection stuff and Polish.... works a treat.
That stuff is good but it only masks the problem! I used it on some taillights which worked well, but I know those grills have some many layers on them, which will be better sanded.
Again, use the plastic polish as a final buff.
PlasticX or scratchX work well too, however you need to go over it a few times and buff very hard and will need a touch up every now and again.

1986 AE86 JDM GT-Apex Levin Notchback ready to roll......
ill have a look into it.
concerns are:
-headlights are a different plastic with different layers and coating
-kits are designed for oxidization removal as opposed to this case where its an actual peeling layer unlike headlights
-retaining a completely clear finish. not cloudy
i've come to the conclusion i will have to sand it if i want any chance of restore. no amount of polishing will compensate for the difference in layers (in theory )
again unsure of most the above, feel free to interject.
has anyone actually attempted something like this on a letter box grille with any success???
(nikkojoe i couldn't work out if you had used it on the grille or just the product on other items ie. headlights)
The process you listed is correct, but to bite into the plastic, first you will need 600 on the orbital sander (never by hand), then work through to 1200, then 2000 finally.
You will need a decent plastic cutting polish to get best results from here, car polish is no good, then the finishing buffing polish for plastics.
We reco these at work.
i have an orbital air sander but the finest grit discs i can get are 320 so ill have to do it by hand
i have plasticX meguires plastic polish and ill probably get a meguires cutting polish too
is there any need for an acrylic clear coat with this process?
what kind of things should i avoid that could potentially leave the finish cloudy rather than completely clear?
shame your not local

Six Flags Qiddiya Announces World's Tallest, Fastest, Longest Roller Coaster
Today, Six Flags ($SIX) and the Qiddiya Investment Company announced what they hope will be the final word in roller coasters: Falcon's Flight. While details are thin at the moment, the company claims that it will be the tallest, fastest and longest steel roller coaster ever built.
The announcement coincides with the release of the Qiddiya Master Plan yesterday, outlining the park's six themed areas. Falcon's Flight will be the lynchpin in a greater development of the area, transforming what is currently desert to a thrill-seekers paradise, with 28 rides in total when it opens in 2023. The park will include several other record-breaking attractions, according to the news release.
Despite the scale of the announcement (and it's a big one, folks), it's seeing quite a bit of skepticism online from both park fans and the general public. So why all the downer Dave's & Debbie's?
For starters, the ride (and park) are still three years away from opening, if everything goes smoothly. Generally, parks or chains hold back on "record-breaking" announcements, to not allow others to potentially compete for a longer period of time.
By telling the world you're building a 155 mph coaster, other parks or manufacturers could get a head start on breaking those exact, same records.
However, with the animation and stats that have been released, it's doubtful any park would – or more crucially could – spend the capital necessary to match or exceed these world records. Just from the looks of the video, this ride could easily exceed $100 million USD to build. That's more than some park chains spent on rides at all of their parks last year!
Second, there are still calls for Six Flags and other American brands to abandon their partnerships with the Saudi Royal Family, after it was revealed the Kingdom was an active participant in the murder of Washington Post reporter, Jamal Khashoggi.
Thirdly, others are wondering whether this coaster (and park) will ever see the light of day, given the company's track record of opening new parks internationally. Of the five announced international projects, Six Flags has delayed two (China) and cancelled one (Dubai).
The last surviving park Six Flags built from the ground up is Six Flags Mid-America (St. Louis), debuting back in 1971 (Six Flags Power Plant in Baltimore was more of a themed-entertainment attraction, opening in 1985 and closing in 1990). All of the other parks that make up the chain today were acquired after they were built. (Side note: the current Six Flags, Inc. is not the same company that built the original three parks).
With all that being said – the project is backed by members of the Saudi Royal Family, some of the richest people on Earth. It's doubtful that they would allow a project of this scope and notoriety (after today) to fail or falter, let alone never open.
The bigger issue is: can the manufacturer of this ride (or any of the rides planned) work out the inherent complications of operating safely and consistently in the scorching, desert heat and sand of the Middle East?
I guess we'll just have to wait and see three years for the answer.
Why Virtual Reality Roller Coasters Seemingly Died
It seemed like virtual reality (VR) on roller coasters was about to be the "next big thing" in the amusement industry. Many parks / chains figured they could breathe new life into older attractions with a VR update. So why are we seeing less and less of them all of a sudden?
Slow Operations / Long Lines
The first thing folks noticed about VR coasters was their wait times – and it wasn't because they had become instantly more popular. Ride dispatches, even on small trains could average up to 10 minutes+ making ride capacities plummet and wait times soar.
Plus, in many cases, there wasn't a separate line for non-VR seats. Guests would have to wait the exact same amount of time to NOT experience VR as they did if they wanted to.
The Experience Wasn't Seamless
During my many experiences with VR coasters, the ride didn't sync properly with the timing of the train or shut off completely, which led to queasy guests. Other times, the VR required people to do an action, like shoot space aliens – leaving their hands unable to brace themselves into corners and brakes.
Did it make the ride better?
But for me, the biggest downfall of virtual reality coasters is that they don't make the coaster they go on any better. In fact, in the case of Ninja at Six Flags St. Louis, it made the ride WORSE. I couldn't brace for the "transitions" and the ride ended up being very painful.
There's Promise on the Horizon…
Where VR coasters appear to have failed, there seems increasing promise in VR drop towers. Parks with multiple towers or vehicles seem like they could benefit the most.
To me, these experiences are a vastly superior VR experience: smoother, one plane of travel and decreased forces, coupled with not slowing down the other towers or vehicles.
So, to sum up, the VR experience is a novel concept but it's not quite ready for prime time, at least with it's current implementation here in the United States. If parks can ultimately work out the capacity and reliability issues with the headsets, it might be a novel way to breathe new life into older rides.
Otherwise, virtual reality coasters should be relegated to an up-charge attraction that only runs certain times of the year or specific hours of the operating day.

What do you think? Do you enjoy VR on roller coasters, drop rides, or neither? Let me know in the comments below – and be sure to check us out on social media!
Six Flags Discovery Kingdom unveils Rage of the Gargoyles VR Coaster for Fright Fest
Being the closest Six Flags park to Silicon Valley, it seems strange to have it receive the virtual reality add-on to one of its coasters so late in the game.
However, with time comes improvement and those lessons learned at other Six Flags parks were on full display at the media preview aboard Kong for "Rage of the Gargoyles" – a virtual reality experience powered by Samsung and Oculus.
The headsets have been completely re-designed, with a simple click wheel for tightening in the back and bungee straps with a single adjustment point. The phones themselves still have the occasional hiccup, which does add to dispatch times. But overall, it's faster than other installations I've seen.
The experience itself is fairly straightforward. You're a gunner in a helicopter, slowly climbing to do battle with gargoyles – because, why not? At the top of the lift, a giant gargoyle appears and rips the top off your helicopter, rendering your gun useless.
During the ride, the gargoyles still come at you, move your head around to target them with missiles.
At the end of the ride, the "boss" gargoyle appears once again, so you have to do battle with him as the train slowly navigates back to the station. If you don't do battle with him at the end – you actually end up losing the game!
My biggest concerns going into the event today were shared by many others: how could a ride known for rough, jerky transitions be suitable for a "blinded" VR experience? I have to say, I did not experience significant headbanging on my two trips (it was far from smooth, however). On the second trip, however my headset did become loose and began bouncing around on my head, which was not pleasant.
With the large, Vekoma over the shoulder restraint, I also found it difficult to reach the side button to shoot during the game. It also limited my reach when the headset came loose.
Dispatch times were improved over what I saw this past summer at other Six Flags parks. At this special media event, they were averaging around 4-5 minutes. That is a vast improvement over the 7-10 minute dispatches I saw at Six Flags St. Louis, Over Georgia and Over Texas this past summer.
So, is it worth a trip to Six Flags Discovery Kingdom to experience Northern California's first Virtual Reality coaster? Yes, if you've never done it before. Just be prepared for long waits and slow dispatches. I'll predict that the general public will eat this sort of thing up, while coaster fans (who already weren't too hot on Kong) might give it a second look.
If you've been on a VR coaster before, it's not much different from what you've already experienced. A ride on the Joker or Medusa might be a better bet if the lines are as long as predicted.
Overall, I still don't like the idea of VR on rides, at least on the rides that they've been installed on in the United States. While the idea is there, the execution just isn't worth the wait. At least, not yet. All that being said, this is one of the better VR installations that I've experienced.
Have you done battle with the gargoyles aboard Kong? Let me know what you think in the comments section below:
Six Flags Discovery Kingdom's New for 2017 attraction is a real headscratcher
It's the best time of the year for park fans – time to find out what that 2017 season pass will get you at your local or favorite bemusement and theme parks.
Early this morning, Six Flags fans got up early to see what was coming their way – and it was a lot of DC Comics-themed clones.
A lot of them. Several "Justice League" dark rides and Joker-themed 4D Free Fly coasters dominated the announcements, which isn't surprising – considering the larger investments in parks last year across the chain.
But the real headscratcher in this chain-wide announcement is my local park, Six Flags Discovery Kingdom. Here's why:
The park is adding a Zamperla Giant Discovery – a large pendulum ride that swings riders while the disc spins around:
There's just one thing – the park already has something just like it – a very intense Huss Frisbee known as "Tazmanian Devil."
Call me crazy – but I think many would agree a better addition would have been a Zamperla Endeavour; the same model seen at Six Flags Over Texas:
Of course, Tax could also be having some serious maintenance challenges – and might not be there next year. But if it is – better get some Scalpicin shampoo to cut down on the irritation to your head.
Even more amazing – despite all the issues surrounding the closure of Vortex and subsequent communications afterwards – California's Great America STILL has an opportunity to not only trump Discovery Kingdom's announcement – but completely usurp the Vallejo parks' new addition – if they play it right. Betcha did see that coming last week…
Personally – the biggest and most exciting news out of Six Flags this year – wasn't even part of the annual announcement – it was released the day before it.
Jeffrey Siebert – long time Public Relations and Marketing manager for Paramount's Kings Island, Schlitterbahn and Fiesta Texas was promoted to the role of General Manager of the San Antonio park. Anyone who has been to one of his events knows he is the prototype for all communications / public relations employees at an amusement or theme park. He isn't just another employee – he IS the park. Lives, eats, sleeps and breathes it. It could not have happened to a better person – and I look forward to seeing what he does now that he's his own boss (sort of).

Cell phone on roller coaster injures guest and cause rides to go down more often
This past week, a guest at Six Flags Great Adventure sued the New Jersey park, because a loose cell phone smashed into them on the "El Toro" wooden roller coaster – giving the riders "substantial injuries." Here's the link.
Earlier this month, trains on California Screamin' at Disney California Adventure were e-stopped when a guest whipped out a cell phone selfie stick (apparently to film themselves) all while the ride was in motion. As a result, guests had to be evacuated and the ride was down for over an hour.
Three days later, a ride attendant at Carowinds was assaulted when they refused to allow a guest to retrieve their dropped cell phone from the show building of a dark ride. The operator was shoved to the ground as the guest proceeded to walk along the track to retrieve their precious cell phone. The ride was immediately e-stopped and security arrived shortly thereafter.
Nearly a year to the day that Disney Parks officially banned selfie sticks and phones on rides, guests are still not getting the message – leave the phone in the station or in your secured pocket – and parks have not heeded the call to make it more clear that filming on a ride isn't safe, or tolerated.
Our partner site, Thrills By The Bay had two guests whip out their cell phone on Twisted Colossus at Six Flags Magic Mountain – and when they told the operators, "…they practically shrugged their shoulders and said, 'Well if they lose their phone it's on them.'"
Actually, it won't be on them – it'll be on the face of an innocent rider, who never saw it coming.
Enthusiasts have been trying to warn parks and ride operators for years now about this – but no one seems to want to listen. Sadly, it may take more suits like the one against Six Flags Great Adventure before the industry steps up and tackles this problem properly.
