The Stars Align in Louisville

Center of the Sporting Universe
Sports fans know that Louisville’s spectacular KFC Yum! Center is hosting the second and third rounds of the NCAA men’s basketball tournament this week. Word of Louisville’s hospitality and love of sports has clearly gotten around, because that’s just the beginning of a championship-filled year for Possibility City.

Beginning in May with golf, tennis, softball and lacrosse, through December’s volleyball tilt, Louisville will host 1,000 student-athletes, and 9 NCAA tournament championships will be decided.

Louisville’s Six Appeal
We start with the NCAA DII Spring National Championships Festival, which will crown 6 champions. Women’s golf tees off at Persimmon Ridge, while the men take the links at theCardinal Club. The Top Gun Tennis Academy and EP “Tom” Sawyer State Park host men’s and women’s tennis. Women’s softball and lacrosse take the fields at Bellarmine University. Action for each sports begins on May 14, so choose your events carefully. The choice gets more difficult on May 19, when all championships will be decided.

For most cities, those 6 championships would be more than they could handle. But not Louisville. On November 17, the men’s and women’s cross country championship runs into EP “Tom” Sawyer State Park. And to wrap up the year, women’s volleyball will pick its champion at the KFC Yum! Center on Dec. 13 and 15.

Here’s Your Chance To Bring Home the Gold
Speaking of year-round sports, the Louisville Sports Commission will raffle off a package that will blow the mind of any sports lover. It’s called the Golden Ticket, but that hardly does it justice. The lucky winner will receive two tickets to each regular season home football and basketball game for UofL or UK.

In addition – yeah, in addition! – they receive tickets for:

  • 2012 Kentucky Oaks
  • 2012 Kentucky Derby
  • Louisville Bats season
  • Quaker State 400 at Kentucky Speedway (Bluegrass Club access)
  • Bellarmine University men’s regular season home basketball games
  • 2012 NCAA Division I Women’s Volleyball National Championship
  • 2013 Cyclocross World Championships (VIP credentials)

Tickets are $100, but only 300 will be sold. You don’t need to be anywhere at a certain time to win. The drawing is April 24. Get your tickets here, or email Julie Howell.

More Louisville Love from the National Media
The NCAA isn’t the only group to have noticed all the great times to be had in Louisville. U.S. News and World Report is just out with its list of 12 Best Weekend Getaways, and not surprisingly, Louisville has snagged one of the spots. So get on over there and vote for Louisville as your champion destination.

Men with a physical cause for ED frequently experience the same sort of psychological reactions (stress, anxiety, guilt, depression). Other possible causes are smoking, which affects blood flow in veins and arteries, and hormonal abnormalities, such as not enough testosterone. Risk factors for arteriosclerosis include: Sildenafil should initially be prescribed at 50 mg to be taken one hour before anticipated intercourse. The dose can be increased to 100 mg if needed. A 25-mg tablet is also available; this should be the starting dose for men older than 65 and in patients with hepatic or renal dysfunction. Sildenafil should not be used more than once a day and should not be used in combination with other drugs for erectil23e dysfunction. As of this writing, the drug cost to pharmacists is approximately $263 for 30 tablets of any size. This translates to an average wholesale price of $8.75 per tablet, which has prompted some insurers to limit the number of tablets they will pay for on a monthly basis. A significant number of men develop impotence from psychological causes that can be overcome. When a physiological cause is treated, subsequent self-esteem problems may continue to impair normal function and performance. Qualified therapists (e.g., sex counselors, psychotherapists) work with couples to reduce tension, improve sexual communication, and create realistic expectations for sex, all of which can improve erectile function. buy Viagra 100mg here viagra for sale australia best place to buy viagra online brand viagra sale usa
