But there are other ways to economize on. food besides bringing it from home. · Sharing fries, a chicken basket or a foot -long sandwicb rather than buying small portions for each family member can help stretch the budget. Many parks sell an extralarge hard plastic souvenir drink cup with inexpensive refills. Do , the math; if you're there all day, it might be cheaper to buy one of these for $7.99 and get 99cent refills than five separate drinks for $2.99 each.

HARPAZ AP TRAVEL EDITOR NEW YORK - I consider myself an amusement park survivor. I've done Disney on two continents. boardwalks on both coasts. Busch Gardens. Hersheypark. Universal Hollywood. haumed Halloween nights. and Christmas at an indoor waterpark. I've accompanied a summer camp to Sesame Place and the eighth-grade trip to Six Rags. And despite . unbearable lines, whining children, unappealfng food and my own terror of roller coasters, I can honestly say there's no place I'd rather spend the day. Why 0 Because the kids always have so much fun . But along the way I've honed some adult survival techniques, and I've also gathered some ex pert advice. For every parent who is half-dreading visiting an amusement park this summer. here are seven tips for survival. l. Buy your tickets online. If you show up with ticket in hand, it's one less line to stand in at the park. Many parks also charge less for tickets bOught online. Other · ways to save money on admission: • If you're likely to go twice to the same park, it might be cheaper to buy a season pass than two oneday admission tickets. • If your family can tolerate a late night, look for discounts for late-day admission. At Cedar Point Amusement Park m Sandusky, Ohio, Starlight admission is $24.95 starting at 5 p.m. daily (4 p.m. when the park closes at 8 p.m.) compared with $41.95 for regular admission. Lines for rides are often shorter at night, and you ' re out of the heat of the sun. • Regional parks often run two-for-one admission coupons on soda cans, milk cartons etc., so keep your eyes open. 2. Don't spend hours of your precious day waiting Rides ·from Page 01 AP photo Young guests ride The Flying Fiddler at the new Shamu's Happy Harbor at SeaWorld Orlando, Thursday, in Orlando, Fla. From left: Summer Buffalo, 6, of Oklahoma City,- Okla.; Winter Buffalo, 5, of Oklahorr)'a City, Okla.; Riley Snyder, 6 of Palm Bay, Fla.; D.J.

The expansion of Happy Harbor includes the addition of ihree new rides. · . t in line. Arrive early before the j;ates open. Once you're ins1de, head to the biggest, newest and most popular attractions. That's where the worst lines will be later in the day. You can do more rides in the first 90 minutes that any park is open than you· can the rest . of the day. "A typical pattern for many people is, 'We' re on vacation, so we're going to sleep in.' Then they have breakfast. They get in the park at 10,)0:30. But if you can get there when the gates open, you· re going to have an hour with not a lot of lines and not a lot of peopie," said Christopher Elliott, host of Fine Living TV Network's new "What You Get for the Money: Vacations" show. Some people even "come early in the morning, stay until II or II :30, go off the property for lunch, hang out at a pool and come back for the evening shows," Elliott added. Some parks offer passes .that allow you to skip long lines. At Disney, the free · FastPass system issues timed tickets that bypass regular lines. Universal Orlando sells a limited number of Express· Plus passes each day, $15.99 to $55 .99, depend• ing on time of year and whether you're going to Universal Studios or also to Islands of Adventure. Guests of Universal Orlando resorts - the Hard Rock, Porto fino and Royal Pacific - . can use their hotel room cards to get free front-of-the-line access. At certain Six Flags parks, you can buy a Flash Pass to skip long lines. Pricing varies by park. 3. Do a little research, but don't overplan. Check out height restrictions to avoid disappointment among kids who may not be tall enough for big rides. Use Web sites and guidebl)oks to decide which rides or sections of the park you want to see, and in ~hat order. Consult a map of the park so you don't spend a lot of time backtrack mg. "When you're presented with that many options, it can lead to fatigue and. arguments," said David Downing, editor of the new Zagat "Wal\ Disney World Insider's Guide." "Don't allow yourself to be overwhelmed by the experience." On the other hand: Remember "this is riot a paramilitary operation," said Downing. "You don't have to do everything. One of my favorite things to do at Disney is to watch parents drag their kids from one ride to another. They're screaming, and nobody is having fun." That's especially true with young children, said Cedar Point spokesman in Vallejo, Calif., will now go by ."Six Flags Discovery Kingdom." The park is being split into themed areas uLand,'l.

The Daily Sentinel leveraged buyout lending, up 55 percent from the $189 billion seen during the same months in 2006, according to Standard & Poor' s Leveraged Commentary & .Data Group. For all of2006, there was $480 billion in leveraged loans, more than three times the levels seen in 2002. Charlotte•based Bank of America Corp, knows how this business goes. It is the second-largest arranger of . such loans, · trailing JPMorgan Chase & Co. and ahead of Citigroup Inc. It's a lucrative business: Lenders on average get between 1.5 percent to 2.5 percent in fees on the value .of each loan package they fund, which so far has delivered a nice jolt to bank profits. Competition for such lending is intense, which has led al11!ngers to ease the protections on their loans. More than a third of all lending · during the first quarter of this year came with less restrictive "covenant lite" terms, up. dramatically from the 7 percent seen in the same period of 2006, S&P said. Stock owners are enthusi· a~tic about this dealmaking since they get bought out at hefty premiums. The only investors who have been hurt by all thi s so far are existing corporate bond· holders whose holdings go down in value as the companies add debt. But generally the collective amnesia about ri sk continues so long as buyout firms can service the debt. Right now, default levels for leveraged debt is at a record low of 0.44 percent, down from I .53 percent' a year ago, according to S&P. Default rates peaked at 8.2 percent in 2000. Still, looking at things that way may be shortsighted. Should companies cartying the massive debt see a sudden turn in business for whatever reason - sinking demand for their products, higher input costs, an outside shock with glob!ll effect - the prospects of default sharply rise. Most lenders try to decrease their ex~osure to such defaults by 'syndical· ing," or selling portions of their loans to other banks or institutional investors, but that doesn 't protect them while they hold a loan. Also, many banks offer "bridge loans." which pro· vide short-term financing before Jong-terni debt financing is secured. Those loans also face the risk of defau lt should the borrower not be able to Jock in permanent financing.

The Daily Sentinel leveraged buyout lending, up 55 percent from the $189 billion seen during the same months in 2006, according to Standard & Poor' s Leveraged Commentary & .Data Group. For all of2006, there was $480 billion in leveraged loans, more than three times the levels seen in 2002. Charlotte•based Bank of America Corp, knows how this business goes. It is the second-largest arranger of . such loans, · trailing JPMorgan Chase & Co. and ahead of Citigroup Inc. It's a lucrative business: Lenders on average get between 1.5 percent to 2.5 percent in fees on the value .of each loan package they fund, which so far has delivered a nice jolt to bank profits. Competition for such lending is intense, which has led al11!ngers to ease the protections on their loans. More than a third of all lending · during the first quarter of this year came with less restrictive "covenant lite" terms, up. dramatically from the 7 percent seen in the same period of 2006, S&P said. Stock owners are enthusi· a~tic about this dealmaking since they get bought out at hefty premiums. The only investors who have been hurt by all thi s so far are existing corporate bond· holders whose holdings go down in value as the companies add debt. But generally the collective amnesia about ri sk continues so long as buyout firms can service the debt. Right now, default levels for leveraged debt is at a record low of 0.44 percent, down from I .53 percent' a year ago, according to S&P. Default rates peaked at 8.2 percent in 2000. Still, looking at things that way may be shortsighted. Should companies cartying the massive debt see a sudden turn in business for whatever reason - sinking demand for their products, higher input costs, an outside shock with glob!ll effect - the prospects of default sharply rise. Most lenders try to decrease their ex~osure to such defaults by 'syndical· ing," or selling portions of their loans to other banks or institutional investors, but that doesn 't protect them while they hold a loan. Also, many banks offer "bridge loans." which pro· vide short-term financing before Jong-terni debt financing is secured. Those loans also face the risk of defau lt should the borrower not be able to Jock in permanent financing. The fa ct that industry leaders Iike Bank of America's Lewis are begin· ning to talk openly about the growing risks should be a wake-up call to everyone. Speaking earlier this month at th e Swi ssAmerica" Cl1amhcr of Commerce in Zurich. Lewis called for "more sanity" in leveraged lending.

"Our roll of the dice proved to be the lucky one," a jubilant Franchini said. " ! made a couple of good restarts and the rain came." None too soon by Franchini's reckoning.

Game 4 on Tuesday nighr. Rasheed Wallace had 16 points and Chris Webber 15 to pace the Pistons, who were the East's best road team during the regular season and came in 4-1 so far in these playoffs outside of Auburn Hills, Mich. Detroit, which needed seven games to put away the Cavs in last year's playoffs, could have effectively enqed this series with another road win. James refused to allow it. Cleveland's superstar made sure he was ready for one of this championship- State from PageBl with a distance of 18-00.5. She also finished second in the IDO-meter dash and was part of record-breaking 4x I 00 and 4x200 meter relay teams. Geiger, Close, Logan and Jackson set new stadium records by finishing the 4x100 in a time of 49.93 seconds and the 4x200 in a time of I :44.47. That time in the 4x I00, one of the Gallians' strongest events, could have even been better, according to Howell. "On our 4x I00 relay, we had a couple mistakes on the hand·offs, but still had a SlJPCr fast time," he said. "That means we still have some improvement to do." · The Angels also claimed championships in the 400meter dasli, in which Jackson broke her own stadium record (set on Thursday) with a time of 57.8 seconds, and in the starved city's biggest nights of basketball. 1 James broke from his usual pregame routine, and after arriving three hours before t1poff, he shot 3pointers and jumpers on the arena's main floor for the first time this season. "I've got to be ready," said James, who wore a black sleeveless "Witness" T-shin during his workout. "This is probably t,he biggest game of my life, and probably one of the biggest games in Cavaliers history. I've got recognize that. I have to be prepared to go out there. "It~ all out" He played like it. With the scored tied 68all, James made another of those legacy-defining plays. On the left side, he burst through and down the lane to deliver a posterizing dunk on Wallace, who fouled Cleveland's forward. James missed the free throw, but fed Ilgauskas for a l;~yup on the Cavs' next trip to make it 72-68 with 6:22 remaining. Moments later, he whipped a ·pass to Gibson, who drained a 3pointer to make it 77-72. With Cleveland clinging to a five-point lead, Gibson stole the ball from Tayshaun Prince, and on the Cavs' next possess ion, James stepped back and swished a 3-pointer to make it 84-76, sending the sellout crowd of 20,562 into a frenzy. The Pistons wouldn't go quietly and scored six straight points before James responded again, driving the right side and hitting a tough jumper. After Prince missed, Drew Gooden hit two free throws· to close the scormg. As the clock expired, James took the ball and handed it to referee Tom Washington, perhaps his most satisfying pass of the night. 113 laps, just four laps after he took the lead with a pass on Andretti. Franchitti was fifth when the race resumed and fell all the way to 14th after .a pit stop to replace a tire following the r~start. After that, Franchini had a very fast car indeed. He began to move through traffic under the green flag, getting to seventh on lap 131, just before the leaders began making green flag pit stops. Franchitt1 regained the lead on lap 137 when Kanaan and Patrick pitted and stayed out front until he pitted on lap 143. At that point, Kanaan got back out front and appeared headed for the victory he thought he had when the first rainstorm hit. But after Marty Roth crashed, bringing out another yellow (lag - and even knowing rain was moving closer - Kanaan , Horn ish and the other leaders chose to pit for fuel and tires on the 155th lap. Franchitti stayed out and led the rest of the way. "That's the Indianapolis 500," said Castroneves, a two-time Indy winner. "You bet it all. Dario took a gamble. He' II be happy with the result and the paycheck." Any chance Kanaan had to win evaporated on lap 156 when Jaques Lazier crashed in front of him and Kanaan spun, barely avoiding the inside barrier near the pit entrance. He rolled into the pits with a flat tire and was later penalized when his crew changed, all four tires in a closed pit, instead of just the one that was flat. He wound up 12th, just ahead of team coowner Michael Andretti. Patrie~ was the only one of the three women in the field to have an impact. Milka Duno ran no higher than 22nd before crashing after 65 laps and ending ' up 31st. and Sarah Fis her finished 18th, two laps behind.

DETROIT (AP) - Ryan Garko hit a three-run homer in tlie first inning and Casey Blake had a solo shot in the fifth to lift the Cleveland Indians to a 5-3 win and a three-game sweep of the Detroit Tigers on Sunday night. The Indians came to Detroit trailing by a halfgame 10 the AL Central and they left in frrst place by a season-high 2 l/2-games. Cleveland (31-17) has its best record after 48 games since reaching the same mark at this point in 200 I, the last time it won the division and played in the postseason. The TI~ers were swept for the first time this season and have lost four of six. Garko's home run gave the Indians a 4-0 lead and Blake's homer put them ahead 5-3. Fausto Carmona (6-1) gave up three runs and nine hits over seven innings. He hasn't lost since dropping his first sfart this season. Rafael Betancourt pitched the eighth and Joe Borowski closed out the ninth for his AL-high 17th save in 19 chances, earning saves in all three wins over Detroit. Mike Maroth (3-2) allowed five runs and six hits in eight innings, losing consecutive starts after going 3-0 in his first seven. He niatched a season high with five walks. The Indians went ahead 40 in the first when Garko's three-run home run followed Victor Martinez's -sacrifice fly. Craig Monroe, Gary Sheffield and Magglio Ordonez hit three straight Mears from PageBl Cup races, but came from the unlikeliest driver. And it put a Mears back in Victory Lane on the biggest day in racing for the first time in 16 years. Mears is the . nephew of Rick Mears, a four-time Indianapolis 500 champion. Mears seemed overwhelmed · during the celebration, and needed a moment to make sure it was real. "Actually, let me look at this for a second," he said, turning to look at the scoring tower. J.J. Yeley, like Mears considered one of the drivers in jeopardy of losing their ride to make room for free agent Dale Eamhw;dt Jr., finished second for the frrst-top five finish of his career. Kyle Petty was third his first top five in -10 years - and quickly praised Mears, who was friends with Petty's late son, Adam. "I couldn't be more excited for Casey Mears if his name was Adam Petty," Petty said. "I am tickled to death for Casey Mears. I want to tell you something: That kid got what -he deserved tonight. I want 'to say, on the record, a lot of great things are going to come for that kid." Reed Sorenson was fourth, and Brian Vickers was fifth in the highest finish this season for Toyota. In fact, the top five all celebrated their best result of the year. Stewart, who seemed to have the win in the bag after Jimmie Johnson gave it Blast fromPageBl Pittsblirgh a 10-5 lead in the fifth.

"I don' t know I'm just a driver. I don't calculate fuel," he grumbled. It's at least the fourth time this season Stewart lost a win he seemingly had in the bag. Ricky Rudd was seventh, followed by Earnhardt and Denny Hamlin .

Johnson had Jed 82 laps and was out front when he brought the field into the pits.

Stewart, meanwhile, had a flawless stop and came out of the pits in first He led Mears and Earnhardt on the restart with 59 laps to go, and it should have been smooth sailing from there.

Which would come fir~t. the rain or the end of the Indy 500? Daria Franchitti gam bled on the rain and . won Sunday, another bittersweet day for the Andretti family at America 's ri chest race. The Scotsman, one of five Andretti Green Racing drivers in the f1eld . took the lead when the leaders pitted one last time for fuel despite darkening skies, and then drove slowly to the checkered flag in a downpour when the. race was stopped after 166 laps, or 415 of the scheduled 500 miles. "Our roll of the dice proved to be the lucky one," a jubilant Franchini said. " ! made a couple of good restarts and the rain came." None too soon by Franchini's reckoning. As the dark clouds drew ever closer, crew chief John Anderson told him on AP photo the radio, "The rain's eight Daria Franch1tti, of Scotland, hoists the bottle of milk after blocks away." his win in the Indianapolis 500 auto race at Indianapolis "Come on!"

Game 4 on Tuesday nighr. Rasheed Wallace had 16 points and Chris Webber 15 to pace the Pistons, who were the East's best road team during the regular season and came in 4-1 so far in these playoffs outside of Auburn Hills, Mich. Detroit, which needed seven games to put away the Cavs in last year's playoffs, could have effectively enqed this series with another road win. James refused to allow it. Cleveland's superstar made sure he was ready for one of this championship- State from PageBl with a distance of 18-00.5. She also finished second in the IDO-meter dash and was part of record-breaking 4x I 00 and 4x200 meter relay teams. Geiger, Close, Logan and Jackson set new stadium records by finishing the 4x100 in a time of 49.93 seconds and the 4x200 in a time of I :44.47. That time in the 4x I00, one of the Gallians' strongest events, could have even been better, according to Howell. "On our 4x I00 relay, we had a couple mistakes on the hand·offs, but still had a SlJPCr fast time," he said. "That means we still have some improvement to do." · The Angels also claimed championships in the 400meter dasli, in which Jackson broke her own stadium record (set on Thursday) with a time of 57.8 seconds, and in the starved city's biggest nights of basketball. 1 James broke from his usual pregame routine, and after arriving three hours before t1poff, he shot 3pointers and jumpers on the arena's main floor for the first time this season. "I've got to be ready," said James, who wore a black sleeveless "Witness" T-shin during his workout. "This is probably t,he biggest game of my life, and probably one of the biggest games in Cavaliers history. I've got recognize that. I have to be prepared to go out there. "It~ all out" He played like it. With the scored tied 68all, James made another of those legacy-defining plays. On the left side, he burst through and down the lane to deliver a posterizing dunk on Wallace, who fouled Cleveland's forward. James missed the free throw, but fed Ilgauskas for a l;~yup on the Cavs' next trip to make it 72-68 with 6:22 remaining. Moments later, he whipped a ·pass to Gibson, who drained a 3pointer to make it 77-72. With Cleveland clinging to a five-point lead, Gibson stole the ball from Tayshaun Prince, and on the Cavs' next possess ion, James stepped back and swished a 3-pointer to make it 84-76, sending the sellout crowd of 20,562 into a frenzy. The Pistons wouldn't go quietly and scored six straight points before James responded again, driving the right side and hitting a tough jumper. After Prince missed, Drew Gooden hit two free throws· to close the scormg. As the clock expired, James took the ball and handed it to referee Tom Washington, perhaps his most satisfying pass of the night. 113 laps, just four laps after he took the lead with a pass on Andretti. Franchitti was fifth when the race resumed and fell all the way to 14th after .a pit stop to replace a tire following the r~start. After that, Franchini had a very fast car indeed. He began to move through traffic under the green flag, getting to seventh on lap 131, just before the leaders began making green flag pit stops. Franchitt1 regained the lead on lap 137 when Kanaan and Patrick pitted and stayed out front until he pitted on lap 143. At that point, Kanaan got back out front and appeared headed for the victory he thought he had when the first rainstorm hit. But after Marty Roth crashed, bringing out another yellow (lag - and even knowing rain was moving closer - Kanaan , Horn ish and the other leaders chose to pit for fuel and tires on the 155th lap. Franchitti stayed out and led the rest of the way. "That's the Indianapolis 500," said Castroneves, a two-time Indy winner. "You bet it all. Dario took a gamble. He' II be happy with the result and the paycheck." Any chance Kanaan had to win evaporated on lap 156 when Jaques Lazier crashed in front of him and Kanaan spun, barely avoiding the inside barrier near the pit entrance. He rolled into the pits with a flat tire and was later penalized when his crew changed, all four tires in a closed pit, instead of just the one that was flat. He wound up 12th, just ahead of team coowner Michael Andretti. Patrie~ was the only one of the three women in the field to have an impact. Milka Duno ran no higher than 22nd before crashing after 65 laps and ending ' up 31st. and Sarah Fis her finished 18th, two laps behind.

DETROIT (AP) - Ryan Garko hit a three-run homer in tlie first inning and Casey Blake had a solo shot in the fifth to lift the Cleveland Indians to a 5-3 win and a three-game sweep of the Detroit Tigers on Sunday night. The Indians came to Detroit trailing by a halfgame 10 the AL Central and they left in frrst place by a season-high 2 l/2-games. Cleveland (31-17) has its best record after 48 games since reaching the same mark at this point in 200 I, the last time it won the division and played in the postseason. The TI~ers were swept for the first time this season and have lost four of six. Garko's home run gave the Indians a 4-0 lead and Blake's homer put them ahead 5-3. Fausto Carmona (6-1) gave up three runs and nine hits over seven innings. He hasn't lost since dropping his first sfart this season. Rafael Betancourt pitched the eighth and Joe Borowski closed out the ninth for his AL-high 17th save in 19 chances, earning saves in all three wins over Detroit. Mike Maroth (3-2) allowed five runs and six hits in eight innings, losing consecutive starts after going 3-0 in his first seven. He niatched a season high with five walks. The Indians went ahead 40 in the first when Garko's three-run home run followed Victor Martinez's -sacrifice fly. Craig Monroe, Gary Sheffield and Magglio Ordonez hit three straight Mears from PageBl Cup races, but came from the unlikeliest driver. And it put a Mears back in Victory Lane on the biggest day in racing for the first time in 16 years. Mears is the . nephew of Rick Mears, a four-time Indianapolis 500 champion. Mears seemed overwhelmed · during the celebration, and needed a moment to make sure it was real. "Actually, let me look at this for a second," he said, turning to look at the scoring tower. J.J. Yeley, like Mears considered one of the drivers in jeopardy of losing their ride to make room for free agent Dale Eamhw;dt Jr., finished second for the frrst-top five finish of his career. Kyle Petty was third his first top five in -10 years - and quickly praised Mears, who was friends with Petty's late son, Adam. "I couldn't be more excited for Casey Mears if his name was Adam Petty," Petty said. "I am tickled to death for Casey Mears. I want to tell you something: That kid got what -he deserved tonight. I want 'to say, on the record, a lot of great things are going to come for that kid." Reed Sorenson was fourth, and Brian Vickers was fifth in the highest finish this season for Toyota. In fact, the top five all celebrated their best result of the year. Stewart, who seemed to have the win in the bag after Jimmie Johnson gave it Blast fromPageBl Pittsblirgh a 10-5 lead in the fifth.

RBI singles in the third to pull Detroit within a run, then Carmona pitched out of one of his jams. With two on and one out, Carmona gQt Carlos Guillen to line out and Ivan Rodriguez to strike out The Tigers had two on and no outs in the sixth and Carmona didn't let them have anything to show for it, getting .a double play and a line out.

"I don' t know I'm just a driver. I don't calculate fuel," he grumbled. It's at least the fourth time this season Stewart lost a win he seemingly had in the bag. Ricky Rudd was seventh, followed by Earnhardt and Denny Hamlin . Johnson; who came into the event with five wins in the past eight races, wound up I Oth after his crew dropped a lug nut during a pit stop with 62 laps remaining. Johnson had Jed 82 laps and was out front when he brought the field into the pits. But his Hendrick crew made a rare mistake while changing his tires, lost time scooping up the dropped part, and Johnson came out of the stop in lOth place. Stewart, meanwhile, had a flawless stop and came out of the pits in first He led Mears and Earnhardt on the restart with 59 laps to go, and it should have been smooth sailing from there. But like almost all the other teams, Stewart worried he wouldn't have enough gas to make it to the finish . line. He was one of the last drivers to surrender and head down pit' road for a splash of gas, and it put Mears out front. Crew chief Darian Grubb coaxed Mears to take it easy on the gas pedal and make 11 to the finish line. "It was an excellent call - he told me to conserve fuel ," Mears said. "That was our game plan. We were a third-place car, a fourth-place car at best, and it was the only way to win. ")' can't believe I'm sitting here right now." games in April.
