From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. The rollers are an Old World family, Coraciidae, of near passerine birds . The group gets its name from the aerial acrobatics some of these birds perform during courtship or territorial flights. Rollers resemble crows in size and build, and share the colourful appearance of kingfishers and bee-eaters, blues and pinkish or cinnamon browns predominating. The two inner front toes are connected, but not the outer one. They are mainly insect eaters, with Eurystomus species taking their prey on the wing, and those of the genus Coracias diving from a perch to catch food items from on the ground, like giant shrikes. These are birds of warm climates in the Old World. They are monogamous and nest in an unlined hole in a tree or in masonry, and lay 2–4 eggs in the tropics, 3–6 at higher latitudes. The eggs, which are white, hatch after 17–20 days, and the young remain in the nest for approximately another 30 days. From Wikipedia under the
GNU Free Documentation License What is the best roller coaster at Cedar Point for a first ride? Q. Next week I'm going with a lot of my family members, and my cousin has never been on a roller coaster. I want to take her on some big ones, but nothing too extreme like the Dragster. What are the best beginner coasters there? Asked by jane - Wed Jul 15 07:03:01 2009 - - 7 Answers - 0 Comments A. I'd highly recommend "Blue Streak." Because it has the airtime and the speed of the big coasters, but it is very small, and very un-intimidating. If she likes that one, then I highly recommend "Gemini," which is also one that is really, really fun, although not too tall, but still scary enough to see if she really likes coasters or not. And if she likes that one, you can pretty much take her on any coaster in the whole park, except maybe TTD and Maverick, because they are both so intense. Heck, even I, a coaster enthusiast, still cringe every time I'm about to take off on either because I know how intense they are. "Millennium Force" is butter-smooth, though, so it is just about the perfect 'huge' coaster to work her up to. If she doesn't… [cont.] Answered by cheetaking243 - Wed Jul 15 17:53:53 2009 what is the best type of lint roller i can buy?

Q. I guess I'm afraid of falling from heights or something, except it's strange... I'm gonna be going to a water park (with roller coasters, obviously) with friends soon, and I'm scared of roller coasters. I'd be fine if it was just a drop on a water slide, but for some reason I'm terrified of drops on roller coasters. My friends are roller coaster fanatics and I don't want to spoil their fun or ride alone. That's why I don't want to ride only the smallest kiddy-type ones and increase in size gradually. I also don't think I can handle riding a big one right away. Last time I tried that, I completely freaked out right before I got on and chickened out in the end. What do I do? I'M embarassed to ride the smaller ones in front of my friends.… [cont.] Asked by I wished for you. [11:11] - Wed Jul 19 13:36:29 2006 - - 18 Answers - 2 Comments A. Well, I want to say, "Deal with it. You'll survive and be glad you overcame your fears." But If you are only going to be there for a day try smaller roller coasters if you have an amusement park near you. Otherwise I'd say just ride the coaster, and if it doesn't make you sick, it helps to keep your eyes closed and when a ride scares me, which is unusual, I pray because it relaxes me, if there is something you do that relaxes you and you can do it on a roller coaster (like singing... probably in your head) try and do that. Screaming, laughing... laughing is actually a good one. Pretend you aren't scared. Fear is mental so just fill your mind with other thoughts.
