From this angle, it almost looks like a collision about to happen.

This was my comedy partner, Tim Simpson. He and I had a show at Six Flags and also did comedy club showcases together in Hollywood.

The weather forecast was looking dire, and who wants to get pelted with raindrops at 70mph? So some of us stocked-up on $4.97 safety goggles before hitting the park!

Stage 6 Time Trials

This is what you see when you reach the apogee of your SuperMan Ride experience.

Superman: The Escape is a launched shuttle roller coaster loated in the Samurai Summit area of Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia, California that opened in 1997. It is nearly identical to Tower of Terror, which opened two months prior in Australia. These two coasters were the first to utilize Linear Synchronous Motors (LSM - A form of Magnetic Levitation) technology to propel vehicles to top speed. Superman: The Escape was for a while the tallest roller coaster in the world, although its drop was the same as Tower of Terror. It was also tied with Tower of Terror as fastest roller coaster in the world. Today, it is fifth fastest. In 2001 the speed record was taken by Dodonpa in Japan. In 2003 Superman's height record was taken by Top Thrill Dragster at Cedar Point.

 

The coaster has two parallel tracks. Riders are accelerated horizontally from 0 to 100 mph (160.9 km/h) in approximately 7 seconds (about 0.65 g). The track then pitches up 90 degrees to the vertical. Riders climb this vertical section, stop and follow the same path back to the start. During the entire vertical section of the ride, riders are completely weightless for about 6.5 sec, half going up and half coming back down.

Notice of Availability and Public Hearing

for the

Newhall Ranch Resource Management and Development Plan (RMDP)

and the Spineflower Conservation Plan (SCP)

 

Environmental Impact Statement/Environmental Impact Report (EIS/EIR)

 

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) as Lead Agency under the National Environmental Policy Act and the California Department of Fish and Game (DFG) as Lead Agency under the California Environmental Quality Act, have prepared a Draft EIS/EIR for consideration of The Newhall Land and Farming Company’s (Applicant’s) request for federal and state permits, agreements, and authorizations to implement the Newhall Ranch Resource Management and Development Plan (RMDP) and the Spineflower Conservation Plan (SCP). The RMDP (a conservation, mitigation, and permitting plan for sensitive biological resources within the previously approved Newhall Ranch Specific Plan area) would be relied upon to obtain federal and state permits to implement infrastructure improvements required to facilitate build-out of the approved Specific Plan and is intended to direct both resource management and development on the Specific Plan site. The SCP is a conservation and management plan to permanently protect and manage a system of preserves designed to maximize the long-term persistence of the San Fernando Valley spineflower (Chorizanthe parryi ssp. fernandina; spineflower), a federal candidate and a state-listed endangered plant species; to authorize the take of spineflower located outside designated preserves; and to address known spineflower within the Applicant’s land holdings located within the Specific Plan area and two adjacent areas, the Valencia Commerce Center and Entrada planning areas.

 

The Newhall Ranch Specific Plan was approved by Los Angeles County in May 2003 to guide development of a new community composed of a broad range of residential, mixed-use, and nonresidential land uses within villages on the Specific Plan site, located in a portion of the Santa Clara River Valley in north western Los Angeles County, between the city of Santa Clarita and the Los Angeles County/Ventura County jurisdictional boundary line. Subsequent development plans, subdivision maps, and federal and state permitting, consultations, and agreements were anticipated to be required to facilitate build-out of the Specific Plan. This joint EIS/EIR has been prepared at the direction of the USACE and DFG to analyze the direct, indirect, secondary, and cumulative impacts of the proposed RMDP/SCP, including impacts associated with project-specific infrastructure improvements and maintenance activities in or adjacent to the Santa Clara River and its tributaries located within the approved Specific Plan site.

 

USACE Public Hearing

The USACE and DFG will hold a public hearing on Thursday, June 11, 2009, at 6:30 p.m. The hearing will take place at Rancho Pico Middle School, located at 26250 West Valencia Boulevard, Stevenson Ranch, California 91381.

 

The public hearing will provide the public an opportunity to become more familiar with the Project and the alternatives under consideration. The public hearing is an opportunity for interested parties to provide oral and written comments on the Draft EIS/EIR. The comments presented at the hearing will be recorded and entered into the public record.

 

Public Review Period

The public review period for the Draft EIS/EIR begins on April 27, 2009, and ends on June 26, 2009.

The Draft EIS/EIR concludes that the Project would have significant and unavoidable impacts to the environment in specific areas, including, among other environmental categories, biological resources, air quality, noise, agricultural resources, land use, visual resources, and solid waste. These environmental effects, and others, are described in further detail in the Draft EIS/EIR. Written comments on the Draft EIS/EIR must be postmarked or received by fax or e-mail no later than June 26, 2009. Send written comments to:
