Pages Accessible Only by Forms
Some sites have pages that can be reached only by filling out a form. For instance, one of the largest automobile insurance companies in the world used to have a simple form on its home page that asked for your postal code. You’d fill that out, click on Submit, and be directed to the portion of the insurer’s site that dealt with your region.
It sounds logical, but search engine crawlers don’t type in postal codes, and they don’t click on Submit. To the search engines, this insurer’s site looked like just a single page – and a pretty boring one at that.
In 1975 Randy Romero began his professional riding career at Evangeline Downs in Lafayette, Louisiana. Nicknamed the "Ragin` Cajun", in 1983 at Oaklawn Park racetrack in Arkansas Romero suffered a near career-ending injury when he received major burns to two-thirds of his body from a freak fire that erupted while taking a sauna.He had rubbed himself down with alcohol and moved into the sauna in the jockey`s room. As he did he accidentally broke a live light bulb that immediately ignited his entire body. After seven months of rehabilitation he returned to compete at the Fair Grounds Race Course in New Orleans where he won his third of four riding titles and set a track record with 181 wins.
Randy Romero`s success led to owner Ogden Phipps and trainer Shug McGaughey choosing him to be the regular rider for Personal Ensign. Romero rode the future Hall of Fame filly to an undefeated career, capped off with a victory in the 1988 Breeders` Cup Distaff, an event he had won the previous year aboard Sacahuista for trainer D. Wayne Lukas. The following year he won his third straight Breeders` Cup race, taking the Juvenile Fillies event with Go for Wand. Tragically, he was aboard Go for Wand and in the lead when she broke down in the 1990 Breeders` Cup Distaff race. Romero broke his pelvis and several ribs and the filly had to be euthanized.
While Randy Romero met with great success as a jockey, the downside of his career was a number of racing-related injuries requiring more than twenty surgeries. He retired in July 1999 having ridden 4,285 winners, notably winning a number of important Grade I events.
In 2002, Randy Romero`s health problems were added to when he learned that the disordered eating required to maintain riding weight during his years as a jockey had severely damaged his kidneys. He said he began vomiting his food at an early age in the practice known as "flipping" in the world of jockeys.
In addition, his liver was damaged by a tainted blood transfusion received during one of his many operations. Along with fellow jockey Shane Sellers, he was featured in the 2004 HBO documentary film titled Jockey . Directed by Kate Davis, the films tells the story of their health problems resulting from racing injuries and the long term effects of bulimia to maintain racing weight.
For a number of years, Romero has suffered from hepatitis C and on February 18, 2008 he had a kidney removed at a Louisville, Kentucky hospital. His remaining kidney does not work very well and he has to receive dialysis treatments several times each week.
Randy Romero was voted into the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame in 2010.
