Here Are Some Great Story Ideas
Worlds of Fun History
The 1980's saw a new waterpark open next to the park, Oceans of Fun. At the time it opened, Oceans of Fun was the largest waterpark in the world. The sub-world River City opened in Americana near the Orient. The next year saw the Scream roller coaster transformed into the USA's first stand-up roller coaster. The decade ended with the addition of a major new roller coaster, Timberwolf. The ride quickly became a favorite of park visitors and enthusiasts alike.
Did You Know?
Tivoli Terrace East and the big red games barn located near the entrance to Planet Snoopy.
Screamroller was introduced in 1976 along with Bicentennial Square, celebrating the nation's 200 years. In 1983 it was converted to EXT, America's first stand-up roller coaster.
The Spinning Dragons fountain used to be the footprint for the dolphin show, and an occasional diving donkey!

Things to Know Before You Go
Information For Guests With Disabilities
Service animals are always welcome at Worlds of Fun and Oceans of Fun. A service animal is defined as a dog or miniature pony that has been individually trained to perform tasks for a person with disabilities. All service animals must be controlled with a restraint or leash at all times during your visit to Worlds of Fun and Oceans of Fun. Upon your arrival to the park you may check in at Guest Services as only one service animal per guest is permitted and you may be asked what tasks your service animal has been trained to do. Due to the nature of most rides, service animals must remain with a non-riding member of your party throughout your day at the park as Worlds of Fun associates are not permitted to take control of a service animal. Service animals are not permitted in water attractions, wet decks, wading pools, or lazy rivers. For your convenience, a service animal relief area is located next to the Prowler Photo shop. We look forward to seeing you at the park soon! |

What brought you to Worlds of Fun / Oceans of Fun?
I came to Worlds of Fun in 2011 in search of a job to help fund college. Initially, I worked in Planet Snoopy as a Ride Ambassador; however, I moved to Finance the next year and have remained since.

1 package (super moist) lemon cake mix (18.25 oz)
2 eggs
1/3 cup vegetable oil
2 tablespoon lemon zest
2 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon extract
white sugar for coating
confectioners' sugar for coating
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Pour cake mix into a large bowl. Stir in eggs, oil, and lemon extract until well blended. Roll cookie dough into balls then put the dough into a bowl of regular white sugar (this will help the confectioners' sugar stick). Toss the sugar over the ball of dough until coated. Move the ball to the bowl of confectioners' sugar, and toss again to coat. Once sugared, place on a non-stick (or lined with parchment) cookie sheet.
Bake for 6 to 9 minutes or until the edges are lightly browned.
2 cups milk*
¼ cup butter or margarine
2 eggs, slightly beaten
½ cup sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon or nutmeg
¼ teaspoon salt
6 cups soft bread cubes (about 6 slices bread)
½ cup Raisins
For topping:
Caramel topping (store bought or homemade)
Whipped Cream
*Optional: you can also use Heavy whipping cream for a richer tasting bread pudding in place of the milk.
Heat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. In a 2-quart saucepan, heat milk and butter over medium heat until butter is melted and milk is hot.
In large bowl, mix eggs, sugar, cinnamon and salt. Stir in bread cubes and raisins. Stir in milk mixture. Pour into ungreased deep round pan.
Bake uncovered 40 to 45 minutes or until knife inserted 1 inch from edge comes out clean. Serve warm with a caramel store bought topping and whip cream.
4 Roasted Red Peppers
2 Heads Roasted Garlic
1/2 cup Chicken Stock
Salt (to taste)
Cracked Black Pepper (to taste)
2 pounds Lobster Meat
3 ears Fresh Corn
1 tablespoon Olive Oil
12 ounces Linguine
1/2 cup chopped Parsley
1/4 cup fresh Lemon Juice
Place corn on hot grill until uniformly cooked and tender. Cut kernels from cob and set aside.
In a food processor or blender combine roasted peppers and garlic, puree until smooth.
Place in sauce pot and add the chicken stock and salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil and turn down, simmering for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
Toss lobster meat with olive oil, salt and pepper. Place on hot grill. Cook for 6 to 8 minutes. The meat will turn opaque white when done.
Salt and pepper a pot of boiling water and cook pasta until al dente; set aside.
Heat skillet on stove on medium heat, toss pasta, roasted corn and sauce together.
Plate pasta and top with lobster. Add chopped parsley and lemon juice.
1 pound lamb chops
2 Tbsp minced fresh rosemary
2 teaspoons salt
1 Tbls freshly ground black pepper
2 garlic clove, minced
4 Tbsp olive oil, divided
In a small bowl, mix the rosemary, salt, pepper, garlic, and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil together. Coat the lamb chops with the mixture, massaging it into the meat with your fingers. If you are working with double rib chops, cover and let stand at room temperature for 30 to 45 minutes. (If you are working with single rib chops, and you want the result to be rare, let the chops sit in the rub in the refrigerator, do not let come to room temp or the thin ribs will easily overcook when you sear them in the next step.)
Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in an oven-proof sauté pan over high heat. When the oil is shimmering hot, sear the lamb chops on all sides, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. (If you are working with single rib chops, sear only on two sides, and only a minute or so on each side if you want the result to be rare or medium rare.)

Vikings list Robert Blanton, Jasper Brinkley first on the depth chart
- 2 September, 2014 //
- Vikings //
- Tags :
By Chris Tomasson
Vikings coach Mike Zimmer tried to play it coy Monday with two of his defensive starters. But there might not end up being too much suspense.
In the depth chart released by the team Tuesday, in preparation for Sunday's regular-season opener at St. Louis, Robert Blanton is listed as the first-string strong safety and Jasper Brinkley as the first-string middle linebacker.
Zimmer wouldn't identify his likely starter Monday at either position. But Blanton had become the apparent starter after the Vikings on Saturday released Chris Crocker and Kurt Coleman and put Jamarca Sanford on injured reserve.
And Brinkley has looked to be the likely starter for the past month. He started all four preseason games and Zimmer said after last Thursday's preseason finale he had the lead over Audie Cole.
The depth chart is unofficial. Obviously, Zimmer could pull a surprise when his team takes the field Sunday.
The depth chart also lists Captain Munnerlyn as the first-string left cornerback after he had been a co-No. 1 with Josh Robinson entering the preseason. But it has been apparent for weeks that Munnerlyn would start.
Zimmer wouldn't say Monday who his third cornerback would be between Robinson and Sherels. But it looks as if it will be Robinson, who is second on the depth chart behind Munnerlyn. Jabari Price is listed as second team behind right cornerback Xavier Rhodes, and Sherels is listed at third team behind Munnerlyn and Robinson on the left.

WHAT'S THAT WOMAN DOING STANDING UP IN A BOAT HOLDING a golf club? She's enticing readers of The New York Times, Golf, Newsweek, and other publications to inquire about the custom home sites and land-home packages at The Estates at World Golf Village in St. Augustine, Fla., of course. Launched in early 2003 in regional editions, a series of three elegant (if a bit off-center) black-and-white print ads sought to attract seasonal buyers along the Eastern seaboard to the custom section of the mixed-use project.
Following a successful umbrella campaign that increased sales for the development's modest offerings, the new approach targeted higher-end, active-adult buyers. "We redefined the message beyond a local and family-oriented audience [for the Estates]," says Alayna Kimball, vice president of marketing for Davidson Development. "Whenever you go with something as whimsical as this, it's a little nerve-wracking. But the response has been phenomenal."
In less than a year, the campaign boosted traffic by 20 percent and actual sales by 230 percent compared with the previous year; as of March, 220 estate sales ranging from $500,000 to $2 million, evenly split among home sites and land-home packages using the project's preferred builder network, were on the books. Despite the esoteric approach, Kimball had faith in her agency's strategic and creative approach. "Having the research to back it up is vital, but you have to go with your instinct on the creative side," she says. "We knew it would reach the target audience and make an impact. Even if it's scary, you have to go for it."
CAMPAIGN DETAILS Program: Black-and-white print ads; Project: The Estates at World Golf Village, St. Augustine, Fla.; Developer: Davidson Development, St. Augustine; Cost: $650,000 (media buy only); Marketing/Advertising agency: Cole Henderson Drake, Atlanta

I wasn't clear about that. The parent needs to manage the listen sockets to enable graceful restarts to work. Having the parent own the listeners allows us to not destroy the listen queue (and anything on it) across a graceful restart. The code to prevent inheriting the socket is quite simple, it was just behaving strangely (see below). > > Solutions... > > Sockets are created as inheritable by default.

Heh, the behaviour is quite nonintuitive. I set the listeners noninheritable in the parent process. Then call CreateProcess. If the created process initializes -after- the call to WSADuplicateSocket in the parent process, the sockets are inherited anyway. This looks like a bug in the Windows API. If I ensure the child is fully initialized before calling WSADuplicateSocket (by inserting a Sleep or WaitForInputIdle after the call to CreateProcess), the sockets are not inherited. > > > I have no thoughts on how to cleanly solve problem 1.

Nothing I've read about the process group support implied that a segfaulting parent would take out a child. Hope to commit the code to handle the socket inheritance tomorrow (having trouble with getting WaitForInputIdle to link. The prototype is not being picked up out of winuser.h). Bill | |

If Roger Federer wins Wimbledon and Rafael Nadal loses before the semifinals, Roger will regain the No. 1 ranking on July 6.
Here are the details from the ATP:
Roger Federer collected his first Roland Garros title on June 7 to complete a career Grand Slam and equal Pete Sampras' all-time Grand Slam titles mark of 14. The Swiss superstar finds himself a Wimbledon title away from regaining No. 1, depending on Nadal's result.
Federer went into Roland Garros 4,490 points behind the Spaniard but after winning the title, he cut the margin to 2,070 points on 8 June. Both players withdrew from grass court tournaments in preparation for Wimbledon and will lose 450 points from their respective 2008 titles won in Halle (Federer) and Queen's (Nadal).
If Federer wins his sixth Wimbledon title and Nadal loses before the semi-finals, then the Swiss will regain No. 1 on July 6. World No. 3 Andy Murray could go to No. 2 by winning Wimbledon but no higher. Even if Murray wins Queen's his points total won't change as it would replace the 250 that he won at Doha in January. His 0-point penalty from Indianapolis stays on for 12 months and will drop on July 20.
Click here for more info, including a points breakdown for all you number crunchers.
So it's possible, but the way this season is going, "Possible is Nothing." We could get a Soderling vs. Fognini final or some equally ridiculous result. And who doesn't want Federer vs. Nadal on the final Sunday? I'll take Strokes of Genius, II over a number.

Service Connection For Conditions Related To Hazardous Exposures At Fort Mcclellan, AL
Many veterans who served at Fort McClellan from 1970 through 1999 were exposed to environmental contaminants, herbicide agents, and various hazardous chemical agents. From the end of World War II until the base closed in 1999, Fort McClellan (Fort Mac) was home to the U.S. Army Chemical Corps, during which time environmental contaminants, herbicide agents, radioactive isotopes, and other chemical agents polluted the soil and water supply.
VA recognizes that among others, some members of the U.S. Army Chemical Corps School, Army Combat Development Command Chemical/Biological/Radiological Agency, Army Military Police School, and Women's Army Corps may have been exposed to various harmful contaminants. These include, but are not limited to, radioactive compounds, chemical warfare agents, and airborne polychlorinated biphenyls.
If you served at Fort Mac between 1970 and 1999 and have developed one of the medical conditions listed below, service connection for your disability is possible. Just because VA does not have regulations specific to exposure-related claims at Fort Mac does not mean that obtaining VA benefits is impossible. An opinion from a qualified medical professional such as a physician that provides a nexus, or link, between your condition and exposure you experienced during service is a crucial element of all exposure-related disability claims. A medical opinion from a qualified medical professional could be the key to your claim being granted for the conditions listed below.
- Stroke
- Peripheral vascular disease
- Hypertension
- Myelodysplasia
- Lymphomas
- Leukemia
- Auto immune disorders
- Lupus
- Kidney cancer
- Bladder cancer
- Non-ischemic cardiomyopathy

There was better news in the latest trade figures, which showed that the first surplus in oil trade for five years helped to narrow Britain's May deficit with countries outside the European Community by pounds 132m to pounds 769m.
The monthly Gallup poll conducted on behalf of the European Commission showed that 30 per cent of those surveyed expected the economy to improve while 31 per cent thought it would deteriorate.
The negative balance of 1 per cent contrasted with a positive 21 per cent in May and took Gallup by surprise. 'Confidence is clearly very volatile at present, with people reacting strongly to current events,' Gallup said.
The survey showed that the balance of respondents who thought this was a good time to make a large purchase was only marginally lower, at 11 per cent. The balance of those surveyed who thought the financial position of their households was improving sank to minus 8 per cent, but this was slightly better than the April result.
The slight improvement on the trade front came after trade in oil excluding the Community swung from a deficit of pounds 85m in April to a surplus of pounds 5m. The rest of the improvement was due to a favourable swing in trade in erratic goods such as ships, aircraft and precious stones.
Since sterling's sharp depreciation last September the deficit in trade outside the EC has shrunk steadily in value terms from a December peak of pounds 1.344bn, suggesting that the impact of devaluation was taking effect.
A similar trend emerged from the trade volume figures, which strip out the effect of currency fluctuations and changes in prices. The volume of exports, excluding oil and erratic goods, rose by 6 per cent in the three months to May and was 12 per cent higher than the comparable 1992 period.
In contrast, the volume of imports edged up by 2.5 per cent in the three months to May and was 14 per cent higher than a year earlier. During May both export and import volumes rose by about 1 per cent.
The latest figures for trade excluding the Community follow the CSO's estimate that in the first quarter Britain's global trade shortfall widened by pounds 150m to pounds 4.5bn. In what may be a rough proxy for trade with the EC in subsequent months, yesterday's figures showed that the trade deficit with Western Europe excluding the EC narrowed to pounds 436m in May compared with a 1993 high point of pounds 725m reached in March.
Since the advent of the single market and the abolition of internal EC customs borders, trade with the EC is being assessed on VAT returns by importers and exporters. This system is inevitably slower than the traditional customs basis, which still applies to trade outside the Community.
Last month's figures showed that the sharp rise in both import and export prices, expressed in sterling terms, appears to be levelling out for the first time since Black Wednesday.
In the latest three months, export and import prices for goods other than oil rose by 2 per cent.

Oh... thank you. I think in this way its more organized and easyest to mae later modifications.
I have one doubt about the circuit. There is a wire in the CCS power output to ''0v at ecc83''. So, should i put this in the 12ax7 heater central tap (pin 9)? Its the only 0v i can see there... am i right, or in any 0v it will work (as it should work)? |

You are doing fine indeed... Your English is doing allright too, don't worry (it seems your language "teacher" here I know him very well...) For your first try out on this difficult wiring technique I can say it is way ahead on some "industrial and professional" work, some of them well regarded and expensive tube stuff (have seen some "beautiful outside" far east products wiring that don't even get close to yours...) Nice work and we would be curious for the resulting sound and electrical performance of this amp (the only thing I don't really like is the open circuitry, no chassis shielding: I've seen people doing that and giving up after a few trys because the level of noises, buzzes, hum and the like was unbearable... beware. [ ] Ricardo P.S. I would like to invite the friends in this space to take a look at my "site" and browse through the stuff I've been doing: http://www.flickr.com/photos/vtr_products/ Thanks in advance! |

Thank you ricardo... your jobs inspirate mines. I'll put all the grounds in the down top of PCB (its a unused copper PCB) and my earth to (a 15 feet copper bar stick in the ground)... can you understand what i'm saying? here go some pics of the CCS circuit board i made: I'll test this 100uf/40v axial siemens for bypass... if it will be to much i can change him easily. |

Hi raidprotector,
Your capacitor is for bypassing the raw supply, right? Can you post your schematic? -Chris

Hi raidprotector,
here is my unsolicited advice, you cand dab the pcb with clear plastic burnsih to protect the copper from getting tarnished..

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Takenoko-zoku (竹の子族, lit. "bamboo shoot tribe") describes a type of dance group active from the mid-1970s to the mid-1980s in Tokyo, especially in Harajuku. The teenagers, mainly girls but often with one boy leading, were colorfully dressed and danced in a distinctive style on the sidewalk to music from stereos.[1] To an extent, they were precursors to the gyaru groups that would eventually arise in the 90s.[1]
A performance of a takenoko-zoku group can be seen in Chris Marker's film Sans Soleil.

I can almost smell the airplane dope and fuel spills.
Hey Bill its been a while. i hope all is good at your end!
I just checked out the Bradley w/ Busk...i have one in the stash with some extra goodies and i might do an armor project next so your build is great inspiration!
Thanks for taking the time to leave a word!
Posted 21 February 2017 - 07:46 PM
Hi, Karim, thanks for asking. I have been traveling pretty much every other week for work. Leaving in about 50 minutes for the airport to go to Madrid via Brussels. I keep telling my friends it's not as glamorous as it sounds, as most of my time is in meetings or asleep in a hotel.
I would love to see your Bradley. The Meng kits are superb, I even bought the AirCav version but don't plan to do the hatches open this time, haha!

Hi Karim ,
absolut top build with a special focus on details.
The engine looks very realistic , could be a real one. Very nice work on the ignition wires.
I also like the way you have made some of the cockpit details , the internal wiring and the aging of the seat pillow.
Having build the DFW late I can judge yours is top level.

New York Knicks point guard Raymond Felton faces multiple felony weapons charges after his arrest early Tuesday morning on New York's Upper West Side.
Felton, a police department spokesman told ESPN New York, was charged with second- and third-degree criminal possession of a firearm and fourth-degree possession of a firearm. The first two are felonies, the third a misdemeanor. The charges stem from an incident in which Felton allegedly pointed a gun at a woman who is believed to be his girlfriend, according to the New York Post. Felton surrendered, according to the Daily News, after Ariane Raymondo-Felton, his 26-year-old estranged wife, brought a Belgian pistol (an FNH 5.7×28 mm.) to the police, the Daily News reported.
Felton, 29, and his wife of 19 months have begun divorce proceedings, the New York Daily News reported last week.
"It's your life," Felton said. "When you're going through certain things in life it's on your mind, no matter what. You try not to let it come into your job, into your workplace, but sometimes it does. You're human and it's a part of life. But at the same time, it is what it is. That's my personal life, though; I don't want to discuss that part."
Felton, who turned himself in at 12:50 a.m., is expected to appear in criminal court later Tuesday morning. The arrest came hours of after the Knicks' 110-108 loss to the Dallas Mavericks on Dirk Nowitzki's 19-foot buzzer-beater. Felton had eight points and seven assists in 34 minutes.
New York, as the former Giants' wide receiver Plaxico Burress found out, has stringent gun-control laws. In 2009, he was sentenced to two years in prison after accepting a plea deal on a firearm charge following an incident in which he suffered a gunshot wound to his thigh when his gun went off in a Manhattan nightclub.

In Western and Northern Norway in particular, the highlands above the tree-line are generally mountainous. The Norwegian equivalent of the word mountain is fjell. However, in proper names Norwegian has lots of suffixes meaning mountain. The prefix Troll is common. A troll is a mythical creature living inside the mountains, but it turns to stone when exposed to sunlight. Trolls are very ugly, often big or even gigantic, usually rather stupid, and else resemble humans in good and bad ways. May I add that nearly all images on this page are from Trollheimen and Trolltindene

The mountains must be experienced on foot. Spend some money on proper shoes and bring extra clothing for bad weather; this might be essential for survival, on rare occasions even in summer. Bring also maps and a compass – and learn how to use them (old daddy speaking). Your mobile phone can't be trusted at all, but bring it anyway. You can chose to roam the mountains with a heavy rucksack, a tent, and a sleeping bag, or you may hike along blazed trails from one lodging ("hytte" or "bu") to another. And – don't do as old daddy did – don't do this alone.
Home of the raven – sounds great, doesn't it? It is great hearing the soft sound of their wings when a raven couple flies overhead. There are other birds too, like the rough-legged hawk couple circling high in the sky, and – then those seagulls that have been her since their predators were hunted down more than half a century ago. On you level you might come across a female rock ptarmigan and her silent, non-smelling and 'invisible' offspring. Of mammals we have the reindeer, domesticated in some areas, native – the old bucks with enormous antlers – in some areas. And if you hope to see a wolverine – you might if you're very patient.
