Room Description:
As a prisoner deep below the Colosseum, you await your turn in battle. Spartacus was once imprisoned in the very cells you currently occupy, and he managed to escape. To help others follow his path to freedom, he left a series of clues and challenges showing the way but made them clever enough so the guards couldn’t follow his path. Studying the timing of the guard patrols, you realize you have a 100-minute window with which to make your escape or face the uncertainty of the arena against tested gladiators.
Get ready for a unique adventure like no other! You will work your way through multiple distinct rooms under the Colosseum, working together with your fellow prisoners – and maybe a little help from unsuspected allies – finding clues and solving puzzles in your effort to Escape the Colosseum! May the Gods of Rome have mercy on you and bless your path to escape!
Escape the Colosseum is one of the longest escape adventures in the world at up to 100 minutes. The attention to detail makes this a deeply immersive experience and you truly feel like you have been transported 2,000 years into the past. If the ancient Romans didn’t use a Master Lock or modern tool, you won’t find them in this period themed experience! There is no in-room Game Master and our hint delivery system is unique and incorporated seamlessly into the storyline.

A Beautiful Day At The Beach With Jorge And Kelly (And Daniel)!
Last week, Brennan and I drove to St. Petersburg to go to beach! We haven’t been able to jump in the water and sit in the sand in a long time, so it was an incredibly overdue trip! We went on a weekday (which is our new weekend), so we had to wait for Kelly and Jorge to get off work so they could join us for food and a beach sunset! We’ve owed them a trip since they were the ones to come to us last time, and it was well worth the drive. We even got to spend time with their new son, Daniel! Thanks for watching and I’ll see you soon!

Let other people have cats and dogs! Jungle Bob is here to show you that owning a pet reptile or amphibian is not as crazy as you might think. In this video, he tells you six cool facts about green anoles and brown anoles.
For many people, a trip to Florida is often a chance to encounter one of Florida's most populace lizards, and that is the green and brown anoles. Little tiny lizards with quite a temperament to them, they are a little bit on the tenacious side.
Predators for sure. They look like mini velociraptors to me sometimes, because of their tenacity when they hunt their favorite prey which, of course, is insects.
Two distinct different species, and sometimes I refer to as anolies, anoles. It's almost like tomatoes, tomahtoes; you can say it a lot of different ways. But there's two distinct ones, the first one here is biting my right finger, is the green anole, or the Carolina anole, which is native from the Carolinas all the way down to Florida. This is a native American species that was quite popular in the pet trade for many many years.
In my left hand is the brown anole, which lives in Florida but now more of them, most of them, come up from the Caribbean, and the Bahamas, they're hitchhikers, and they've gotten into the United States. They're somewhat an invasive species, and they're so tenacious they're kind of pushing our green anole friends up the border and out of competition for food. They're very, very aggressive as well.
Green anoles are beautiful, little creatures, in that they have, particularly the males of the species, they throw out this gorgeous dewlap. It's a flap of skin underneath the neck that is brightly colored, and that serves a dual purpose. It's first function, certainly, is to attract a girlfriend. A male anole with a beautiful dewlap is most likely to mate with his female counterparts.
The other part of it is just to scare off another male. A male will puff up and show big he is, even though we're looking at an animal that's about 3 to 4 inches in total length, and maybe a couple of ounces in weight. He's trying to show how big and bad he is by throwing out his dewlap, bobbing his head, and saying territorially, this is my area; I live here, you back off.
So, the green and brown anoles are something that I'm sure everybody who's visited Disney World, or has seen grandma in Florida, you're going to encounter these. They cohabitate beautifully with mankind. They are everywhere: crawling across houses, inside of houses, in porches; a daytime diurnal animal that you'll see all day long.
At night they sleep on walls and tree-trunks and they're extremely easy to catch when they're sleeping. During the day, not so much. They are very, very quick, as we can see, our guys here in the branch, how fast they can scurry. This is an animal that suffers from the malady known as autotonomy, which is, if I grab it by the tail, he'll detach that tail, and I'll be left with a wiggling tail in my hand, and the lizard will actually escape.
It's natures way for lizards to defend themselves from not being eaten by some of their favorite predators. Snakes birds of prey, etc, will grab him by the tail because they're so fast and all they'll get is that tail meal, and the lizard lives to see another day. Their tail regenerates, but it's never quite as nice as the original.
This is the green and the brown anole, a treasure of the American southeast, and something you'll see on any trip to the Florida area. They also make wonderful jewelry, should you be so inclined.
L. RON HUBBARD - WikiVidi Documentary
Lafayette Ronald Hubbard , better known as L. Ron Hubbard and often referred to by his initials, LRH, was an American author and the founder of the Church of Scientology. After establishing a career as a writer, becoming best known for his science fiction and fantasy stories, he developed a system called Dianetics which was first expounded in book form in May 1950. He subsequently developed his ideas into a wide-ranging set of doctrines and practices as part of a new religious movement that he called Scientology. His writings became the guiding texts for the Church of Scientology and a number of affiliated organizations that address such diverse topics as business administration, literacy and drug rehabilitation. The Church's dissemination of these materials led to Hubbard being listed by the Guinness Book of World Records as the most translated and published author in the world. The Guinness World Record for the most audio books published for one author is also held by Hubbard. In 20...

Bob Ross: Only Happy Accidents (Bob Ross Biography)
For eleven years he hosted one of the most popular art shows on television -- transforming a blank canvas to a finished painting in a remarkably short, 30 minutes. He captivated audiences with his mesmerizing voice and relaxed demeanor, and of course, his signature perm. Nearly twenty-five years after his death, the painter of “happy little trees” is immortalized through internet memes, inspirational quotes, a thriving business in his name, and reruns of his show The Joy of Painting. His fame as a pop-culture icon shows no sign of diminishing yet so little is known about his life. Today on Biographics, we piece together the world of Bob Ross -- beyond the canvas.

Annual 2019 - Law Enforcement Led Diversion: Examples from the Field
A key component of criminal justice reform is the increased use of diversion and deflection programs. Law enforcement agencies are well placed to effectively institute these programs, since law enforcement is the initial contact for most justice-involved individuals. This panel will define diversion and deflection, as well as give examples of successful programs from across the country. Juvenile justice, mental health and substance abuse will be key focus areas for the panel. Additionally, the panel will discuss how law enforcement led diversion programs can help to build community trust with reform efforts within the criminal justice system.
