So I’m like pretty much very afraid of heights and I dont have a lot of experience with roller coasters. But im going to six flags great america soon. It would be helpful to hear what the most scary roller coasters are so I can stay away from or be cautious of them. Thanks!

whenever i install any game like just cause 2 first 2 or 3 weeks it
runs well but then it starts to slow plzzzz tell me what is the problem
You won’t believe this, but I’m 14 and going to Six Flags for the first time with my two friends, both of which have been there many times. My one friend particularly likes it and she said the first one we’re going on is El Torro. I do not know what that means, but I’m assuming it means it’s very fast and very scary. What do you expect?
second:
Never get too close to that filthy man outside the store
just turn your head away and never let him feel you stare.
For we are all meat; he is ravenous, a carnivore;
he could slaughter you like sheep and never even care.
Eyes dart, he scurries, startles, slinks off at swift trot.
He wears a mask when asked what ails him, grasps the agony.
Cat naps in shaded spots, carries spoils in shopping carts.
He was once a fine soldier, college credited, short of degree.
He pleged his fealty, traveled far from amber waves of grain;
His tour of duty ended when he was crippled by friendly fire;
his wounds left scars inside of the shell-shocked remains.
not hit abroad as would surmise; named a traitor by leader-liar.
Flags raised in past, legends on banners, waving ‘Carpe Diem"
Seasoned veterans, perhaps, remember his given name.
His crime of passion saved the lives of six young North Koreans.
Who would have thought that such a selfless act would end in shame?
Every now and then he loses all sense and attacks at random,
the military sends their paramedics post haste to sedate him.
It does no one a bit of good to try to show they understand him;
he takes comfort in the knowledge that all people hate him.
at first I had only this part:
Eyes dart, he scurries, startles, slinks off at swift trot.
He wears a mask when asked what ails him, grasps the agony.
Cat naps in shaded spots, carries spoils in shopping carts.
He was once a fine soldier, college credited, short of degree.
He pleged his fealty, traveled far from amber waves of grain;
His tour of duty ended when he was crippled by friendly fire;
his wounds left scars inside of the shell-shocked remains.
not hit abroad as would surmise; named a traitor by leader-liar.
Flags raised in past, legends on banners, waving ‘Carpe Diem"
Seasoned veterans, perhaps, remember his given name.
His crime of passion saved the lives of six young North Koreans.
Who would have thought that such a selfless act would end in shame?
Did adding at either end do this any justice? Should I have kept to the original?
how deep is the water is in each of the water rides in Six Flags Hurricane Harbor in Chicago? My family and I are going there this July and my little sister and I cant swim.. :/
swimming classes may not be an option and is it more than 4 1/2 feet?
Whats a league?!?
I am going to six flags in Velencia, California tomorrow and I realize that coke cans can get you a discount. I am going with someone who has a season pass and we are going to buy 2 additional tickets. I looked up discounts that if you bring a coke you can buy one ticket you get one free. How much does the first ticket cost? Also, does the coke can have to have a coupon printed on it?
Thank you!!
The White House, Democrats and MoveOn liberals are spreading health care sob stories to sell a government takeover. But there’s one health care policy nightmare you won’t hear the Obamas hyping. It’s a tale of poor minority patient-dumping in Chicago — with first lady Michelle Obama’s fingerprints all over it.
Both Republican Sen. Charles Grassley of Iowa and Democratic Rep. Bobby Rush of Illinois have raised red flags about the outsourcing program run by the University of Chicago Medical Center. The hospital has nonprofit status and receives lucrative tax breaks in exchange for providing charity care.
Yet, in fiscal year 2007, when Mrs. Obama was employed there, it spent a measly million on charity care for the poor — 1.3 percent of its total hospital expenses, according to an analysis performed for The Washington Post by the nonpartisan Center for Tax and Budget Accountability. The figure is below the 2.1 percent average for nonprofit hospitals in surrounding Cook County.
Rep. Rush called for a House investigation last week in response to months of patient-dumping complaints, noting: "Congress has a duty to expend its power to mitigate and prevent this despicable practice from continuing in centers that receive federal funds."
Don’t expect the president to support a probe. While a top executive at the hospital, Mrs. Obama helped engineer the plan to offload low-income patients with non-urgent health needs. Under the Orwellian banner of an "Urban Health Initiative," Mrs. Obama sold the scheme to outsource low-income care to other facilities as a way to "dramatically improve health care for thousands of South Side residents."
In truth, it was old-fashioned cost-cutting and favor-trading repackaged as minority aid. Clearing out the poor freed up room for insured (i.e., more lucrative) patients. If a Republican had proposed the very same program and recruited black civic leaders to front it, Michelle Obama and her grievance-mongering friends would be screaming "RAAAAAAAAACISM!" at the top of their lungs.
Joe Stephens of The Washington Post wrote, "To ensure community support, Michelle Obama and others in late 2006 recommended that the hospital hire the firm of David Axelrod, who a few months later became the chief strategist for Barack Obama’s presidential campaign. Axelrod’s firm (ASK Public Strategies) recommended an aggressive promotional effort modeled on a political campaign — appoint a campaign manager, conduct focus groups, target messages to specific constituencies, then recruit religious leaders and other third-party ‘validators.’ They, in turn, would write and submit opinion pieces to Chicago publications."
Some health care experts saw through Mrs. Obama and PR man Axelrod — yes, the same Axelrod who is now President Obama’s senior adviser. But the University of Chicago Medical Center hired ASK Public Strategies to promote Mrs. Obama’s initiative. Axelrod had the blessing of Chicago political guru Valerie Jarrett — now a White House senior adviser.
Axelrod’s great contribution: re-branding! His firm recommended renaming the initiative after "internal and external respondents expressed the opinion that the word ‘urban’ is code for ‘black’ or ‘black and poor.’ … Based on the research, consideration should be given to re-branding the initiative." Axelrod and the Obama campaign refused to disclose how much his firm received for its genius re-branding services.
In February 2009, outrage in the Obamas’ community exploded upon learning that a young boy covered by Medicaid had been turned away from the University of Chicago Medical Center. Dontae Adams’ mother, Angela, had sought emergency treatment for him after a pit bull tore off his upper lip. Mrs. Obama’s hospital gave the boy a tetanus shot, antibiotics and Tylenol, and shoved him out the door. The mother and son took an hour-long bus ride to another hospital for surgery.
I’ll guarantee you this: You’ll never see the Adams family featured at an Obama policy summit or seated next to the first lady at a joint session of Congress to illustrate the failures of the health care system.
Following the Adams incident, the American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) blasted Mrs. Obama and Axelrod’s grand plan. The group released a statement expressing "grave concerns that the University of Chicago’s policy toward emergency patients is dangerously close to ‘patient dumping,’ a practice made illegal by the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act (EMTALA)" — signed by President Reagan, by the way — "and reflected an effort to ‘cherry pick’ wealthy patients over poor."
Rewarding political cronies at the expense of the poor while posing as guardians of the downtrodden? Welcome to Obamacare.

My cheer squad wants to go to the Cheerfest at Six Flags St Louis, but we don’t know if we have to register or not. We will not be competing; we will just be spectators there for the shows and rides. So if were not competing, can we just show up and pay there? Or must they know that were coming?

Hey there, doing a little history on my family and turns out that the first "known" guy from our family was a knight in 1245. He apparently was the guy who held the flag/banner thing during the battles of that time. I know there is a proper name for his position but I just can’t figure it out, help would be much appreciated
