 Walt
Disney World has announced the cancellation of ESPN The Weekend. Disney
states, "Our focus will be on creating events like the new ESPN RISE Girls
Showcase and the ESPN RISE Games, which provide a stage for tens of
thousands of athletes from around the country, and providing opportunities
for guests to be part of events they’ve only before watched on television,
such as the Home Depot College Football Awards and the Old Spice Classic." This
annual event staged in Disney's Hollywood Studios in March, was first
created in 2004 in support of ESPN's 25th anniversary.

Happy Birthday
America!
 In
our hearts, in our minds and in our actions, we work daily to uphold the
principles on which this great nation was founded. Liberty: for no one can
constrain or remove our belief in our government by the people, for the
people and of the people. Freedom: freedom from fear, freedom from strife
and freedom to continue to build a nation in which democracy, debate and
truth will always reign. On this, our 235th Independence Day, the staff of
INTERCOT wishes The United States of America a Happy Birthday, and we salute
each and every American who fights to uphold those ideals which we hold so
dear.
