From a one-of-a-kind ride down a spiraling mountain to a challenging walk high in the trees, all the thrills that adventure lovers crave are in Ellicottville, N.Y., with the highly anticipated Mountain Coaster at Holiday Valley?s Ski High Adventure Park set to celebrate its Grand Opening on Saturday, August 20, at 10 a.m., according to the Ellicottville Chamber of Commerce.
Similar to an amusement park roller coaster, the Mountain Coaster features cars that ride on a track and travel uphill before making a descent. What sets it apart is its size ? there are 15 curves, 12 waves, two jumps and a giant spiral the length of the ride, all while making a 2,490-foot descent zigzagging and spiraling down through the woods ? and the fact that riders can accelerate or decelerate using handles on the sides of the cars. Video of ride is available at http://vimeo.com/25567269.
?This unique ride is just one more reason to pay a visit to Ellicottville,? said Brian McFadden, Executive Director at the Ellicottville Chamber of Commerce, noting that the Mountain Coaster was designed, engineered and manufactured by Weigand of Germany, shipped in seven containers and took 10 weeks to construct. ?Thanks to Holiday Valley and the Ski High Adventure Park, we are once again raising the bar as a four-season recreational destination,? he said.
Equally invigorating is the Aerial Park which opened at Sky High Adventure Park earlier this summer. Stretched across a four-acre section of woods, the Aerial Park boasts eight separate courses of varying degrees of difficulty, each one consisting of a series of wooden platforms and bridges connected between trees and presenting the challenge of how to get from one to the next. The more difficult courses are higher up in the trees, with some featuring exhilarating zip lines as well.
?The Aerial Park is a spectacular venue for families and friends of all ages,? notes McFadden.
Meanwhile, just down the road from Ellicottville, more adventure awaits at the Kinzua Bridge State Park in Mount Jewett, Pa., where the newly constructed Kinzua Sky Walk is scheduled to open September 15. Featuring a partial glass floor, the pedestrian walkway is built on the historic towers of the Kinzua Viaduct, offering a breathtaking ?walk across the sky.? The Kinzua Bridge Fall Festival immediately follows the walkway Grand Opening, featuring live music, crafts and local food vendors daily from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., September 17-18.
FOR MORE INFORMATION
The Sky High Adventure Park?s Mountain Coaster will operate daily through September 5 and on weekends through October 9. The coaster will also operate during the winter season. The cost of a single ride is $ 6 during the summer season. For more information about the Aerial Park, including individual and group rates, please visit http://www.holidayvalley.com/HolidayValley/info/skyhigh.aspx.

Provo, UT (PRWEB) August 24, 2011
The stock market has been a veritable roller coaster over the past month. As stocks have jumped and fallen based on various financial indicators, many Americans are becoming concerned and stressed with the idea of another recession. There are many who lost jobs previously and are afraid of further unemployment. Those who are are in college are also worried that they will have a difficult time finding employment once they graduate. The president recently stated in an interview with CNNMoney on Wednesday, August 17th, that he will give a speech in September explaining the recourses he is going to put in place to help stimulate job creation. As these strategies become effective and begin to create jobs, My Colleges and Careers stands ready to provide both students and prospective students with information that will help them to find online colleges and receive the necessary job training.
By earning a higher education degree, job-seekers can greatly reduce their stress levels over the economy and have greater hope at finding secure employment. Current government legislation is already awaiting implementation, as President Obama indicated in his CNNMoney interview, that will allow for job creation in the near future. According to the President, jobs will be created by lowering taxes for business and consumers, giving both groups more expendable income and investment opportunities. Other jobs will become available as the country builds trade treaties with foreign countries like Korea and Panama. President Obama concluded his interview by saying ?What [American citizens] want to see is democrats and republicans putting country before party and going ahead and taking action in order to move the economy forward as quickly as possible.? My Colleges and Careers has many tools in place on their website that will allow students to learn how to choose a career through understanding educational requirements and job outlooks for each specific career.
The My Colleges and Careers website is built to help students locate degree programs offered by online colleges and universities. This is ideal for students just starting their education, those wishing to continue their education, and those who are wanting to go back to college. Online schools offer not only certifications in various areas, but also all levels of degrees, from an associate’s to a Ph.D. The degree searching tool on the My Colleges and Careers website helps students find programs within their field of interest. The website also offers additional information such as helpful infographics, news updates and lists of information, such as the top 10 online universities. The online education blog featured on the website is also a very convenient tool for students. Industry experts write on topics such as job search tips, top degrees and careers, and changes to government policies related to education and financial aid. Through utilization of these tools, students will be able to stay apprised of necessary information to help them obtain a stable career, even in times of economic downturn.
My Colleges and Careers is dedicated to helping students and prospective students earn their college degrees through online degree programs. Considering that most students have other responsibilities and commitments, My Colleges and Careers can become a great resource for those seeking a way to fit school into an already busy schedule. Through online programs, students can complete their schooling at their own pace. The tools and services offered on the My Colleges and Careers website have already assisted many students in completing their education and starting a successful career.

Norwich, England (PRWEB) August 25, 2011
World War II may be perhaps the most extensively studied and written about conflict of the 20th century, and it remains a popular subject for study and debate in the 21st. War to Make Peace: Machen Frieden (published by AuthorHouse), by F J P O’Connell is more incisive than the usual over/under examinations of that defining war.
The die was cast on 23rd August 1939 when a fateful non-aggression pact engineered with the USSR usurped the lethargic western Europeans forcing the Comintern to adopt a new approach and a disquietous Japan to reappraise foreign policy. That week, up high on the Obersalzberg overlooking Berchtesgaden, Hitler and his cronies were bathed in red by a rare showing of the colourful Aurora Borealis. He remarked, ?Looks likes a great deal of blood.?
War to Make Peace: Machen Frieden ?? takes the reader on a difficult but necessary worldwide roller coaster,? O?Connell says, ?tracking the background of the principal warlords and the 20 formative years leading to the conflict.?
Alongside Adolf Hitler, Benito Mussolini, Josef Stalin, Franklin D. Roosevelt and Winston Churchill, many other famous ? or infamous ? characters? contributions from king to miner, spy to slave, heroic or otherwise are scrutinized. Nursing much more than a major new theory, O?Connell?s taking-no-prisoners version of World War II offers fresh insight not just into the causative actions, but the interwoven advancements in technology and medicine. Using content-complementing image captions, the educationally-minded O?Connell delivers an articulately-blended, chronologically-structured account. Using geographically-simplified global theaters of war, War to Make Peace: Machen Frieden incorporates the historian?s bird?s-eye view to fly over key points, be it in the Americas, Africa, Asia, Europe or amidst the oceans, all without losing sight of the incredible human aspect for whom the emergence of a thought-provoking newfound word sprang forth.
As in 1945, the book does not stop there. It flirts with the postwar era, has remarkable relevance for the present and bodes ominously for the future.
About the Author
As a child F J P O’Connell couldn?t wait for his weekly Victor VC cover story. By 10 he had collected his first comprehensive history of the Second World War, and first attempted to write his own account two years later. The road of life saw him going to sea and, on acquiring his qualifications, emigrating from Ireland in the early ?80s. After traveling extensively, he married and set up business in England. A very relevant, obscure, quite prevalent debilitating illness CRPS directed him into programming, which in turn endowed him with the problem-solving skills needed to fulfill his lifelong evolving work.

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) August 25, 2011
“Altamont Augie” is a startlingly vivid portrayal of one of the most colorful and turbulent periods in recent American history: the 1960s, as seen through the eyes of two ill-fated college lovers at odds over Vietnam. Their story and the story of their generation spill onto a tableau of some of the era?s most iconic settings?the legendary battleground of Khe Sanh; a Midwestern campus riven by dissent; and Altamont Speedway, scene of the notorious rock festival profiled in the film Gimme Shelter. The back matter of Barager?s book contains a playlist of songs in the order they appear in Altamont Augie which, when considered together, help tell the story of late 1960s America.
The usual narrative of the Sixties has as its cornerstone the Generation Gap. But this was a passing, adolescent thing. Of more lasting consequence was a conflict within the Baby Boom generation, the seldom-told story of campus showdowns between Students for a Democratic Society and Young Americans for Freedom?student activists of the New Left and New Right battling for a generation?s political soul. It is the dramatization of this latter conflict that distinguishes Altamont Augie from other novels about the Sixties that have preceded it.
The enduring relevance of the Sixties is impossible to ignore: far-away land wars are again consuming American blood and treasure; racial tension lingers, stemming in part from an unsettled 1960s-era debate between the forces of black assimilation and black nationalism; and the partisanship of the Sixties between the New Left and New Right has never ended, with the New Left going on to monopolize mainstream media, the arts, and academia, and the New Right giving rise to the Reagan Revolution, Talk Radio, and the Tea Party. The result is an increasingly fraught nation of Red and Blue.
Barager?s novel speaks to all this and more: Vietnam; Sixties campus activism on the left and the right; civil rights era race relations; the Generation Gap; Sixties pop culture; the Sexual Revolution and the dawn of feminism.
?Richard Barager has written the novel of the Sixties?a passion-filled, pitch-perfect, roller coaster of a tale about the decade that divides us all.? ?David Horowitz, former New Left radical and best-selling political author.

WHAT:????Athlete and trainer, Lance Darling, will conduct a record-breaking 30-hour marathon workout to raise funds and awareness for the Platelet Disorder Support Association (PDSA). Lance will be running 52.4 miles and lifting 24,000 reps with no sleep for 30 hours straight. The fundraising goal for this effort is $ 50,000.
WHERE/WHEN:????The schedule for Lance?s 30-hour workout:
????Friday, September 16, at Noon at Loch Lloyd Health Club ? The clock starts on Lance?s 30-hour workout
????Saturday, September 17, at 6 p.m. at Loch Lloyd Health Club ? Lance crosses finish line
????All of Lance?s 30-hour workout will be conducted within the gates of Loch Lloyd. Beginning at Noon on Friday, every hour will be the same until ending at 6 p.m. on Saturday: The first 35-minutes of every hour Lance will do 800 reps of lifting inside the Loch Lloyd Health Club gym. He will then go outside and run 1.75 miles. This will leave Lance approximately five to six minutes at the end of each hour to eat, hydrate, change clothes and visit the restroom. This will give Lance the total of 24,000 reps and 52.4 miles/double marathon. The start and end of each run will be in front of the Health Club.
WHY:????Explanation from Lance Darling: ?In November 2008, I met Jacob Bamesberger, a high energy always-happy kid I couldn’t help but love. Several months after meeting Jacob, his father Brian, told me that Jacob had chronic ITP, an auto-immune bleeding disorder in which the immune system destroys platelets necessary for normal blood clotting. As a personal trainer, I train both Brian and Jacob. Jacob has always worked hard and I knew he played sports, but found he couldn’t play contact sports like football because of his ITP. As an athlete and trainer, it’s hard for me to imagine a child not being able to play any sport they desire and to have to worry about bumps and bruises, instead of running and playing like most kids. Inspired by Jacob’s daily struggles with ITP and working with his parents, Brian and Kenda, I will be helping to raise funds for PDSA in the fight against ITP. People have asked me how I get through a 30-hour workout, but this is nothing compared to the children who live with ITP and other related auto-immune disorders.?
HOW:????Businesses and individuals can help find a cure for ITP by becoming a sponsor of this event, attending the Kickoff Party or Main Event (outlined below) or by making a donation to: http://www.peakperformanceforchildren.com
MORE:????Join Lance in his fight against ITP by participating in the following events:
????Friday, September 16, from 6 to 11 p.m. ? Kickoff Party (Ticket available online for $ 75, which includes food beverages, silent and live auction and entertainment)
????Saturday, September 17:
o????8 a.m. ? 5K Fun Run
o????1 to 3 p.m. ? Hole-in-One Contest
o????5 to 8 p.m. ? After party with BBQ, kids carnival games, caricatures and face painting
????Become a sponsor. Sponsorship details are available online.
????Visit: http://www.peakperformanceforchildren.com
TRAINING:????Training for Lance Darling began March 15th and will go in to September. Mileage and reps have increased every 15 days. Lance takes every 12th day off, giving him two days a month for rest. By the end of August ? which will be the peak of training ? he will be running 50 miles a week and lifting 8,100 reps every other day. During the event itself, there will be a team of health care professionals (two doctors and two nurses), who will be volunteering their time to monitor Lance?s workout.
ABOUT:????The Platelet Disorder Support Association (PDSA) is dedicated to enhancing the lives of people with immune thrombocytopenia purpura (ITP) and other platelet disorders through education, advocacy, and research. For many ITP patients and their families this disease is a roller coaster ride of emotions, including feeling of helplessness, anxiety, fear, and depression. ITP can have a huge impact on the day-to-day physical and psychological aspects of a person?s life. For more information, visit http://www.pdsa.org.

This was also the month that saw the US debt ceiling rise to USD14.3 trillion and S&P?s downgrade US credit from AAA to AA+. Across the Atlantic, there was continuing concern about the European sovereign-debt crisis.
