- Wonderful TimeTnagel4Dined on 11/21/2014I was searching for a wine bar in the area and found this one. Menu on line looked great. We ordered several smal plates and were adventurous (trying bone marrow- yum). Best ahi tuna I have had. Very good food and service.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Bring your big wallet for small platesRickDined on 11/21/2014First time trying this type of dining. The food was excellent, but the portions were not exactly "shareable" with a large group. If your group has a big appetite, it can get expensive rather quickly, especially with the heartier, main plates. We were taken back by the New York strip steak price on the bill in comparison to the other plates which, unlike other plates, was not posted on the menu. It was still fun and the service couldn't have been better. Nevertheless, I can't afford to eat like on any kind of regular basis. If I come back, I will be more careful and ask for the prices of unmarked items.Special Features:
- Best in FrankfortBeenthereDined on 11/18/2014This is a great restaurant. The service is excellent and fast. The food is delicious and in just the right portions. The menu selection is fantastic with unusual dishes and stellar wine and beer offerings.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best in TownJoJoVIPDined on 11/15/2014The Dancing Marlin is by far the best local gem in the southwest burbs! Excellent food, excellent service - amazing place!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Southwest suburb restaurantChgofoodiemomVIPDined on 11/15/2014This is the second time I've been to Dancing Marlin and once again I was pleased. We started out with the crab stuffed peppers and the fall harvest salad which were great. The oysters were outstanding as well. We were a bit cramped in the back/side room but that didn't make the noise level too loud. The owner and staff make you feel welcome. We'll be back again!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Outstanding!OpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 11/15/2014The food is excellent and service outstanding. This was our first time with the fall menu - we were able to try some new things, as well as a couple favorites from previous dinners. Trina, our server, was knowledgeable and very prompt with service. She was appropriately engaging and upbeat. LOVED everything we tried. Some of the combinations are so unique and you think there is no way they go together - until you actually try them - deliciously excellent!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Unique dining experience. Great food & service.OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 11/14/2014Very fun idea with the small portions, and the food was awesome. Service was terrific and the staff was very kind. Kudos to the chef that did the meet and greet towards the end of our night. Definitely will be back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great experience!ScassDined on 11/8/2014We all loved our first experience here. Food was really good and service was great! Will definitely be back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Girls night outOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 11/7/2014We ABSOULTLY loved the food, outstanding. We love tasting and sharing and it was a perfect place for that.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A great findOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 11/1/2014We were a group of five and each order allowed everyone to share and enjoy. Our selections of scallops, bone marrow, sliders, etc. were all delicious. Kudos to the chef. No one left disappointed. We will definitely return.Special Features:
- food was good.EatsoutVIPDined on 11/1/2014Need to note spiciness of food. Owner was apologetic for incorrect seating.Special Features:
- AMAZING EXPERIENCEBTRFLYDined on 11/1/2014MY HUSBAND AND I DINED HERE FOR THE FIRST TIME AND ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT! THE TAPAS STYLE MENU WAS PERFECT BECAUSE WE WERE ABLE TO TRY A VARIETY OF FOOD ITEMS WITHOUT BEING STUCK WITH ONE ENTREE. THE WINE (CHARDONNAY) WAS TOP-NOTCH AND SERVED AT THE PERFECT TEMPERATURE TO ALLOW BURSTS OF FLAVOR TO COME OUT. OUR WAITRESS WAS VERY KIND, CARING, AND RECEPTIVE TO ALL OF OUR NEEDS. WE CANNOT WAIT TO GO BACK TO TRY SOME MORE MENU ITEMS. WHAT A JOY!Special Features:
- Popular for a reasonAmyRDined on 10/25/2014If you're interested in dining here, be sure to make a reservation or show up before 7pm for a seat at the bar. Then, try a little of everything. Hopefully your service is better than what we experienced this time. The first time we visited we sat at the bar and that experience was great. We had a group of 7 this time so I called ahead, got my reservation at 6pm and called ahead to make sure we could split the check. When the food did finally start coming it was a steady stream of dishes. Our waitress was our parties only complaint, mostly because all she did was complain all night. I will go back, I just hope to sit in a different section next time.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- LovetoeatDined on 10/25/2014prices are raised too much on each plate too often! For such small portions, not good.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 10/24/2014Food was very good and attractive display on the plate. Fun for a group, but almost too noisy for good conversation.Special Features:
- Fun girls night outSherryDined on 10/22/2014Our server was fantastic with recommendations for food and samples of wine. Very attentive to our large groups needs. Food arrived continuously creating a nice flow for conversation. Chef came out at the end of our dinner and recommended desserts then helped deliver the birthday treat. Very fun night and great for a group.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Lincoln Park in the SuburbsWMS07Dined on 10/21/2014Very unique and out of the ordinary American tappas menu. Top notch decor and atmosphere. Sheik and trendy. The food is delicious with beautiful presentation. The wine list is small but sufficient. Tuesday nights get you 1/2 price wine which makes the bill even more reasonable than it already is. Our server was friendly and knowledgeable and made every effort to make us feel comfortable and taken care of. I'd put Dancing Marlin up against any downtown location in this price range, or above for that matter. 5 stars for a local gem that is way better than you would expect in the suburbs.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ICE!dinner42Dined on 10/21/2014The food tasted pretty good. I did have a mai tai which was more like a glass of ice with 2 sips worth of the actual drink. I was disappointed in the drink to say the least and for what it cost, it should have been a bigger drink with less ice.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Dancing MarlinbabsDined on 10/18/2014Excellent dining experience-first time there and will definitely be back! Tapas style entrees flowing from the kitchen all night-every single choice was spectacular. Extensive wine list was well. Seating in the main restaurant a little cramped with tables close together-only criticism.Special Features:
- lucious but loudjtrayDined on 10/17/2014Loved loved the food, the whitefish dip rivals those I have had in WI and MI and fried kale, wonderful. Great creative selections, the flatbreads were so tasty. Everything was wonderful, but don't expect to hear your dinner partners conversation without raising your voice. This place was loud. Not sure if it was the number of diners or just bad acoustics.Special Features:
- Great place!DuckyDined on 10/10/2014First time!! Excellent food! Good drinks!! Reasonable price - will go againSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Dancing MarlinOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 10/10/2014This place really shines. The food is inventive and fresh. Perfect for date night. Server was knowledgeable. I just wish they would offer sustainable soup and a good bread basket.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- KitchenClosedKitchenClosedVIPDined on 10/8/2014Fun, energetic restaurant. Prompt and friendly service. If you want tapas in the south and southwestern suburban area this is THE place to go. My third visit there and it's better each time!Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 10/5/2014We have been here before and like this trip, the one main item we would like was not available any longer that daySpecial Features:
- "I'll be bach!"MsJbugDined on 10/5/2014Loved everything we ordered! My only problem....not exactly a problem...wanting to try more. That being said, I will be happy to return and do just that. Your wait staff was friendly, fun and informative. My kind of dining!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Delicious foodDeliciousDined on 10/1/2014Wonderful place to dine. Staff there was excellent and very friendly. This is a place to go taste testing. Variety of dishes to sample. Compliments to the chef!Special Features:
- Mrs. Donna HunterDmh625Dined on 9/20/2014This was our first time to this restaurant and we just loved every moment we spent here. Food was incredible and service outstanding.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great small plates to shareOpenTable Diner Since 2005Dined on 9/18/2014Love that we were all able to try several types of dishes and still leave room for dessert. Coffee and doughnuts were fantastic.Special Features:
- Small plates bit price taglovinfoodDined on 9/17/2014I was hoping to love the Dancing Marlin because I love tapas and sharing plates. I was a little disappointed. The portions were very small for the price compared to other tapas restaurants on my go to list. The food was good but there wasn't anything that wowed me. I might go back with a large group if we were just looking for appetizers not a meal. I have also been to places that try to accommodate the number of people at the table. There were three of us and many items came in twos. We wanted to try a variety of items so didn't want to get two orders of the same item. I have been to places that will provide an order and 1/2 so everyone gets an equal portion to try and no cutting is involved.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Birthday DinnerCookieDined on 9/16/2014It was my Mother's 87th birthday and we took her to the Dancing Marlin (it was our first time there). We sat at the Kitchen Table and had a delightful time! The smaller sharing portions were perfect for Mom. As she has gotten older, she gets full quickly so she doesn't eat as much. By sharing small portions, she was able to experience nine different items. The food combinations are very interesting, and I like the fact that Dancing Marlin buys food from local (Illinois) farmers.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food in unexpected placesTheFoodiesDined on 9/13/2014Dancing Marlin is definitely a gem worth discovering. The variety and quality of the food is outstanding and I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a unique dining experience.Special Features:
- jamesDined on 9/13/2014ok....nice to try.....table seating is terribly tight. interesting and tasty foods but not relaxingSpecial Features:
- Always outstanding!FoodieNtheburbsDined on 9/13/2014Love, love, LOVE this breath of fresh air in the Southwest 'burbs. Food is always fresh, innovative & delicious! On-tap cocktails are top notch. Never had a bad time here & the season menu is always spot on.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Pricey But Good FoodNancyVIPDined on 9/13/2014Very good food (small plates), tap wine & cocktails. The food is always very good but it is a little TOO pricey. Good flat bread pizza (mushroom), Sloppy Joseph's very good, scallops were delicious. Save room for dessert as the chocolate shooters & turtle cheesecakes (4) were delicious.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- One of Frankfort's BestSouthSubReviewerDined on 9/12/2014The Dancing Marlin has some absolutely delicious offerings; among my favorites: fried green tomato sliders; gnuddi; ahi nachos; heirloom tomatoes and burrata. Some dishes are more "miss" than "hit" -- the pastrami tacos and they had an overpowering mustard note. But the beauty of the Dancing Marlin is there are so many choices and because it is small plates -- you will be sure to have a fun, adventurous dining experience. But don't go here with people who do not love to eat and who are not willing to try new things. Very good beer selection. This is really one of the best restaurants in the Southwest suburbs. The chef is enthusiastic as are the owners. They are trying to bring something new to the area and they are succeeding!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great experience!Rasween7Dined on 9/12/2014Food was fantastic! There are options for those who are not huge seafood fans or adventurous eaters. Drink list was good. But, they could add some more wine options. Went for my birthday and everyone had a great time!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Girls NightGirlsNightDined on 9/12/2014Everything we ordered was delicious! Our waitress was excellent! Only complaint was noise level, we felt like we had to scream over the music to talk to one another. Aside from that we had a great time!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Friday evening funPickyFoodiesDined on 9/12/2014Great time at Dancing Marlin!! Went as a group of five; great place for a larger group. Small plates conducive to sharing, and sampling more items! Food delicious, wines were ok but not spectacular. Would definitely recommend, and will go again! Great suburban find, with more of a city vibe. Loved it!!Special Features:

Dana Point Turkey Trot
Los Angeles
Thu Nov 27
- $$
Time Out says
Posted: Fri Oct 31 2014
Many charities host 5k runs for Thanksgiving, but the Dana Point Turkey Trot at Dana Point Harbor (24921 Dana Point Harbor Drive) is one of the most massive and competitive. Case in point: more than 1,600 participants have showed up in past years and the 10k first place prize is $1,000! Yet, regardless of experience level, everyone is welcome to participate in the run. And the setting couldn't be more perfect—run by sweeping views of the beach, cliffs and coves of Dana Point. Choose from the 10k, 5k, or a Mission Hospital-sponsored Gobble Wobble 1k kids race. Check the Trot's website for the different race start times.
If running isn't your thing, give back to the community by volunteering to help out with the race or have fun by dressing up for the morning's Thanksgiving costume contest. Proceeds from the day will benefit the Boys & Girls Clubs of Capistrano Valley, Doheny State Beach Interpretive Association and Family Assistance Ministries.

The classes and jobs of Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn
Square Enix has shared a massive info and picture dump for Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn. Head over to the official site and check out the Armoury tab to find both the Jobs and Classes sections of the site. From there you can go link diving to check out new art, screenshots, and information. There's tons to see.
For how the two relate, Square Enix says that by achieving mastery in a class, you'll be able to take on related jobs. For example, thaumaturges may aspire to become black mages; conjurers may want to work to become white mage healers.
I think these new screens are looking great. We've shared some of the better ones in our gallery.

Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office deputies said they busted two brothels in a Lake Worth neighborhood Friday, arresting two men who ran the homes and two women who worked in them.
Sheriff's Office spokeswoman Teri Barbera said deputies were tipped off to the houses, which are separated by a five-minute walk. One was located in the 200 block of South C Street and the other in the 300 block of South E Street. The Sheriff's Office launched a "prostitution operation" in response to information deputies received, she said.

My DSs 6 and 4 have recently been playing this for about 1 month. It is all they can think/talk about. If they aren't playing it on a pad, they are live action playing it with each other. I have made them be outside all day after school today, they just mope around outside, when can we play again? I have outlawed it like every other day..doesn't seem to help. I set the timer for 30 min to play, as soon as playing they are animated, happy, excited kids. It doesn't even look fun!!!! Does the newness eventually fade?
How long does the Minecraft obsession last? update 3 mo later..still no end it sight

"God made Heaven, and then, after measuring the space underneath with a ball of thread, he began to form the earth. A mole asked to help, and God gave him the thread to hold while he wove the patterns of the earth. Sometimes the mole would let out too much thread, and finally the earth grew too large for the space under heaven. The mole was so upset that he hid under the earth. God sent the bee to look for him; he wanted the mole's advice on what to do about the mistake. The bee found the mole and he just laughed at the idea of advising God. The bee, however, hid in a flower and overheard the mole mumbling to himself about what he would do if he were God. 'Iwould squeeze the earth,' he said. 'That would make mountains and valleys and make it smaller at the same time.' When the bee heard this, he went directly to God and told him. God did what the mole had said, and everything fit fine." The myth of Rumanian Creation in which God weaves the earth from a ball of thread is just one the many stories that make up the wonderous world of creation myths. In virtually every culture throughout the ages, creation myths have played a vital role in providing not only explanations of the origins of societies but also specific cultural identities--serving as a "projection of an aspect of a culture's soul."
Covering thousands of years of intricate creation tales, A Dictionary of Creation Myths is the first and most comprehensive work devoted to creation myths from cultures throughout the world. With an easy-to-use A-Z format, this around-the-world tour provides access to information on the beliefs (both exotic and ordinary) of ancient civilizations from Sumeria and Babylonia to Egypt, Greece, and ancient Rome, from India and China to Japan and Indonesia, as well as the rich mythological history of Native Americans, the indigenous peoples of Australia, and many other cultures. We read of the creation myth of the Diegueno tribe of southern California in which the creator, Tu-chai-pai, made the earth female and the sky male and then formed mud into people; and the myth of Japanese creation in which Izanagei, and his sister Izanami, watch the first land form from ocean water dripping from Izanagi's spear. Alongside these ancient beliefs are the more modern, such as Darwin's theory of evolution and the big bang theory.
Each entry identifies the culture associated with the myth, and each myth is retold in clear, eloquent prose, with extensive cross-referencing to guide readers to other entries. Throughout, the authors share insightful analyses of the surprisingly intricate relationship of certain myths across cultures, regions, and time.
From cosmic eggs and the Garden of Eden to the Spider Woman and the Gaia Principle, from myths of the apocalypse and the great world religions to myths of love, re-birth, and science, this guide illuminates the phenomenon of creation from all aspects of the human experience. Richly illustrated, A Dictionary of Creation Myths is essential for anyone who has ever wondered how the world was created, where we came from, or why we are here at all.

From Wikipedia: Holt McDougal is an American publishing company, a division of Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, that specializes in textbooks for use in secondary schools. Holt, Rinehart & Winston was a division of Harcourt Education.

They have also published children's books for the Weekly Reader Book Club, including Sweet Pickles, Fraggle Rock, and Snoopy. ~~~ Houghton Mifflin Harcourt (/?ho?tn ?m?fl?n/[1]) is an educational and trade publisher in the United States. Headquartered in Boston's Back Bay, it publishes textbooks, instructional technology materials, assessments, reference works, and fiction and non-fiction for both young readers and adults. ~~~ The company was formerly known as Houghton Mifflin Company but changed its name following the 2007 acquisition of Harcourt Publishing. Prior to March 2010, it was a subsidiary of Education Media and Publishing Group Limited, an Irish-owned holding company registered in the Cayman Islands and formerly known as Riverdeep. ~~~ In 1961, Houghton Mifflin famously passed on Julia Child's Mastering the Art of French Cooking, giving it up to Alfred A. Knopf who later published it in 1962. It went on to become an overnight success and is considered by many to be the bible of French cooking.

› Find signed collectible books: 'Goddess: Myths of the Female Divine'
An old woman lives still among the broken slopes of the mountains in the land of the Tarahumara Indians. No one knows exactly where. She is sometimes seen standing along the highway near El Paso, hauling wood near Oaxaca, or even hitching a ride on a semi rig. She is the bone woman, the gatherer, La Loba. She collects bones, especially those of wolves. When she has collected enough bones to make a whole wolf, she sings over the skeleton, and it begins to grow flesh and fur. She sings some more and the wolf becomes strong; then it breathes. La Loba keeps singing and soon the wolf leaps up and runs off while the desert world trembles. And when a ray of the sun, or the moon, strikes it at just the right time and place, it turns into a woman, a laughing woman, who you may see running toward the horizon.
In La Loba's cycle of death and rebirth and her metamorphosis from crone to life-giving mother to laughing maiden, we catch just one glimpse of the timeless allure and mystery of the Goddess. From the fertile earth mothers of the ancient world to the modern revival of interest in Wicca, or witchcraft, images and tales of the Female Divine have flourished and waned, intimidated, comforted, and inspired women and men from time immemorial. In Goddess, authors David Leeming and Jake Page gather some 75 of the most potent and meaningful of these tales in an extraordinarily rich and readable introduction of this divine figure as she has emerged from prehistory to the present.
Told as a biography, we follow Goddess from her first Ice Age appearances as the all-encompassing, all-giving, and all-taking Earth, to her re-emergence as a powerful force in the myths of modern religion, psychology, and science. In tales of the Changing Woman of the Navajos and of Hera, Pandora, Eve, and Lilith, we see her traduced and sublimated by rising, and then, dominant, patriarchical cultures and civilizations, but never totally suppressed. In familiar and unfamiliar myths, Goddess comes alive, pulsing with her own energy, irrepressible behind her many cultural masks. She can be the Universe itself, the source of all being, the holy Virgin, the Earth-Mother nurturer, the madly hysterical destroyer, the femme fatale, or the consort or mother of God. She is presented here not as myth, but as a true archetype, a potential being who exists in all of us, a force who long preceded her male counterpart as an appropriate metaphor for the Great Mystery of existence.
As compelling as any novel, Goddess is also a journey into the human heart. Observing Goddess over the centuries--worshipped, belittled, denied, rediscovered--we gain new insight into the changing role of women, our continuing development as a species, and our deepest concerns about ourselves, our world, and the human destiny.

What makes something mythic? What do mythic events and narratives have to do with us? In Mythology, David Leeming offers an unusual and effective approach to the subject of mythology by stressing universal themes through myths of many cultures. This anthology collects a wide array of narrative texts from the Bible to English literature to interpretations by Joseph Campbell, C.G. Jung, and others, which illustrate how myths serve whole societies in our universal search for meaning.
Leeming illustrates the various stages or rites of passage of the mythic universal hero, from birth to childhood, through trial and quest, death, descent, rebirth, and ascension. The arrangement of texts by themes such as "Childhood, Initiation and Divine Signs," "The Descent to the Underworld," and "Resurrection and Rebirth" strip mythic characters of their many national and cultural "masks" to reveal their archetypal aspects. Real figures, including Jesus and Mohammed, are also included underlining the theory that myths are real and can be applied to real life. This edition is updated to include additional heroine myths, as well as Navajo, Indonesian, Indian, Chinese, and African tales.

› Find signed collectible books: 'Stephen Spender'
Stephen Spender spent much of his final years in pitched battles over how his long life should be presented. When Hugh David published his unauthorised Stephen Spender: A Portrait with Background in 1992, Spender and his wife Natasha launched a public campaign lambasting David for his alleged misinterpretations and inaccuracies. A year later, gay novelist David Leavitt reworked elements of Spender's autobiography World Within World in his While England Sleeps, making explicitly sexual what was before only implicitly erotic. Spender threatened to sue and Viking-Penguin were forced to withdraw the novel.
Spender died in July 1995 but even if he were alive to read David Leeming's new biography, it's doubtful that he'd have been provoked into disgusted letters to the Times Literary Supplement or new litigation. Deeming, as his preface makes clear, is a literary gentleman of the old school, who regarded Spender as a friend from the time they shared an office 30 years ago at the University of Connecticut at Storrs. Although he insists this is an "unauthorised" biography, it is in fact as near as authorised as any could be, since Leeming is heavily reliant on Spender's own copious autobiographical writings and journals, published from as early as 1946's European Witness, and his unpublished papers at Berkeley's Bancroft Library (all but four of chapter 1's 23 notes are to World Within World, for example). The result is a leisurely, warm, sympathetic and utterly uncontroversial book that trots through Spender's literary friendships (MacNeice, Auden, Isherwood) and the intriguing pre-war years in Germany and Spain (dubbed here "free love") before seeing him settle down into bluff, devoted family man old age. In ironing out all the creases, Leeming leaves many questions unanswered--most especially why Spender, even in his 80s, should have wasted so much energy on closing down discussion of what clearly was a fascinating early life. --Alan Stewart

› Find signed collectible books: 'The World of Myth'
Hercules, Zeus, Thor, Gilgamesh--these are the figures that leap to mind when we think of myth. But to David Leeming, myths are more than stories of deities and fantastic beings from non-Christian cultures. Myth is at once the most particular and the most universal feature of civilization, representing common concerns that each society voices in its own idiom. Whether an Egyptian story of creation or the big-bang theory of modern physics, myth is metaphor, mirroring our deepest sense of ourselves in relation to existence itself.
Now, in The World of Myth, Leeming provides a sweeping anthology of myths, ranging from ancient Egypt and Greece to the Polynesian islands and modern science. We read stories of great floods from the ancient Babylonians, Hebrews, Chinese, and Mayans; tales of apocalypse from India, the Norse, Christianity, and modern science; myths of the mother goddess from Native American Hopi culture and James Lovelock's Gaia. Leeming has culled myths from Aztec, Greek, African, Australian Aboriginal, Japanese, Moslem, Hittite, Celtic, Chinese, and Persian cultures, offering one of the most wide-ranging collections of what he calls the collective dreams of humanity.
More important, he has organized these myths according to a number of themes, comparing and contrasting how various societies have addressed similar concerns, or have told similar stories. In the section on dying gods, for example, both Odin and Jesus sacrifice themselves to renew the world, each dying on a tree. Such traditions, he proposes, may have their roots in societies of the distant past, which would ritually sacrifice their kings to renew the tribe.
In The World of Myth, David Leeming takes us on a journey "not through a maze of falsehood but through a marvellous world of metaphor," metaphor for "the story of the relationship between the known and the unknown, both around us and within us." Fantastic, tragic, bizarre, sometimes funny, the myths he presents speak of the most fundamental human experience, a part of what Joseph Campbell called "the wonderful song of the soul's high adventure."

THURSDAY, Feb. 11 (HealthDay News) -- Gout is associated with an increased risk of heart attack in women, as previously observed in men, although the risk is higher in women, according to a study published online Feb. 2 in the Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases.
Noting that gout is associated with a higher risk of heart attack in men but its effect in women is unknown, Mary A. De Vera and colleagues from the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada, compared the incidence of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in 9,642 gout patients (3,890 women) and 48,210 matched controls (19,450 women) with no history of ischemic heart disease.
During a median follow-up of seven years, the researchers identified 3,268 incident cases of AMI, of which 996 occurred in women. After adjusting for several factors, women with gout had a higher risk of AMI overall (relative risk, 1.39) and non-fatal AMI (relative risk, 1.41) compared with women without gout. The risks were found to be higher than those for men (relative risk, 1.11 for both overall AMI and non-fatal AMI).
"These population-based data suggest that women with gout have an increased risk for AMI and the magnitude of excess risk is higher than in men," De Vera and colleagues conclude. "These findings provide support for the aggressive management of cardiovascular risk factors for male and female patients with gout."

Dirty clothes -- the constant, consistent chore -- is still one of the most odious banes for women. Jingles for commercial tout the truth that "mama keeps the house clean…," but what the woman must face every day is soiled linen! Most men's use of the same temperature for everything and their employment of the "smell test" – if it doesn't smell too bad, wear it again -- may explain the female's acceptance of the laundry chore. No matter the cause, the modern woman has no idea how different keeping presentable clothing was in earlier days.

Fitch affirms France "AAA", says no room for slippage
PARIS (Reuters) - Fitch Ratings stuck by its triple-A rating on France in a much-awaited review on Friday but warned that an expected peak in debt in 2014 was the limit it could agree to for a country with a top-notch credit grade.
Fitch is the only agency to retain an AAA rating on the euro zone's second-largest economy. It kept to its negative outlook, saying that indicated a slightly greater than 50 percent chance of a downgrade in future.
Fitch said it was raising its forecast for the country's debt in 2014 to 94 percent of gross domestic product from an earlier 92 percent - higher than any other top-rated sovereign except the United States and Britain.
"This is at the limit of the level of indebtedness consistent with France retaining its 'AAA' status assuming the government debt is firmly placed on a sustainable downward path from 2014," Fitch said in a statement.
French Finance Minister Pierre Moscovici called Fitch's rating an "encouragement" and a "motivating force" that confirmed the government was right to pursue its debt reduction targets.
"It's a pointer for the way ahead. My take on this is that the French economy is solid and can be trusted, and it is absolutely essential that we keep to the path we have mapped out: European construction, budget solidity and competitiveness," he told Europe 1 radio.
Last month, Moody's cut France by one notch from AAA to Aa1 - causing only muted investor reaction - following a similar downgrade by Standard & Poor's in January.

I wish all of our readers in the United States a happy, healthy, and safe Thanksgiving holiday. For the rest of you who live in Canada (and already celebrated Thanksgiving back in October) as well as our friends in Europe, Asia, and other regions in this rock we call home: have a happy Thursday, I guess.
Valve Software has kicked off its annual sale. While it doesn't call it a "Black Friday" or "Cyber Monday" sale like others do, it is intended to land on those days for maximum effect. This year's "Steam Exploration Sale" runs from November 26 to December 2 and features discounts and deals on 5,649 games right now.
Unlike most U.S. retailers, the world's largest retailer of games will be closed on Thanksgiving in the United States. GameStop announced that it will shut down its stores in the United States next Thursday. CEO Paul Raines confirmed the news during a post-earnings call on Thursday.
"We will be closed on Thanksgiving Day next week in the United States out of respect for our associates and their families," he said. "Sometimes, we have to not let the pressure from other retailers distract us from our values."
Microsoft announced this morning that - from Nov. 4 to January 3 - it will knock $50 off the price of all Xbox One units being sold at select retail outlets in the United States. This follows a price cut in the UK last month. This price reduction will be available at leading retailers including Amazon, GameStop, Best Buy, Target, Toys R Us, Walmart and Microsoft stores.
On behalf of everyone at the Entertainment Consumers Association (ECA) and the staff here at GamePolitics, I wish you, our wonderful readers, a happy and safe Labor Day!
We'll be back tomorrow! Until then, I hope you are enjoying your day off - assuming you were lucky enough to get one - doing something fun, exciting or interesting (the days off get pretty thin between now and November, so we have to enjoy them when they come along!) Be good to yourselves and others today.
On behalf of the ECA, GamePolitics, and my good friends Andrew Eisen and E. Zachary Knight, I wish you a happy and safe Independence Day. We'll be busy today grilling meat, drinking tasty beverages, watching parades, spending time with family, watching fireworks, playing games or watching cat videos today, but we'll be back on Monday with bells on.
We hope you'll do something fun today and - if you are old enough to have a job - that your employer gave you the day off.
To all of our friends outside the United States, enjoy your Friday!
On behalf of everyone here at GamePolitics and the ECA we wish our readers a safe and happy holiday. We hope you are enjoying your extended weekend and are out (or in, as the case may be) having fun on the unofficial start of summer.
If you want an explanation of what Memorial Day is all about and why it is a very important holiday to a majority of Americans, then you should check out usmemorialday.org.
On behalf of everyone at the Entertainment Consumers Association and GamePolitics I'd like to wish all of our wonderful readers a very Happy Easter and Passover.
If you do not celebrate either of those holidays, then we wish you a weekend filled with family, friends, and fun.
If you don't like having fun, think your family is bonkers, and that friends are a pain in the a$$, then I hope you do not get hit by a bus this weekend.
- James and the ECA team.
Happy birthday to U.S. Presidents George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. I apologize on behalf of our government who took their birthdays away for some odd reason. They'd like to blame Martin Luther King Jr. Day for that, but we reject the argument; all three of these great men can have a federal holiday in the month of February!
On behalf of GamePolitics, I wish you a happy Valentine's Day filled with love, good food, and even better company if at all possible. For those of you who are single, Andrew Eisen offers an instructional video on how to ask the fairer sex out for a night on the town, a quiet evening at home, or whatever social function you can imagine. You can check out the video to your left. If you are single and like it that way, then I encourage you to do something fun today, like watch the new season of House of Cards on Netflix!
On behalf of the Entertainment Consumers Association (ECA) and GamePolitics, we wish you a happy and safe New Year's Day. If you are old enough to party, then please don't party too hearty, don't drink and drive, and please try not to throw up on any plants or small animals if you did party a little more than you should have. We wish that all of your hopes and dreams for 2013 came true, but if they didn't don't let that get you down: tomorrow is the start of a new day in a brand new year.
If you heard that Valve's hit Zombie shooter Left 4 Dead 2 was free for a limited time but didn't get it yet - don't fret, there's still time. According to Valve's Left 4 Dead blog you have until 9 am PDT, or 1 pm EDT. From the blog:
All of us at GamePolitics and the Entertainment Consumers Association wish you a happy, safe, and joyous holiday! May all your dreams come true, DRM-free, without limits, and with no hidden clauses buried five pages deep in a document written by a soulless corporate robot!
We'll see you again on Thursday!
Glad tidings to all.

Ron Nakada, a Senior Software Engineer at Blizzard Entertainment was diagnosed with Stage IV colon cancer six months ago.

Pay-what-you-want indie-focused game store IndieGameStand is hosting a 12-day event to celebrate the holiday season and benefit the children's charity Child's Play. From Dec. 18 - 28 the site will host a 12 Days of Christmas unwrapping event.
Here's how it works: each day IndieGameStand will reveal and spotlight a new indie game that is freely available on the internet. By donating, customers will unlock these games in their IndieGameStand account and all proceeds will be donated to Child's Play.
A new report from the Entertainment Software Association (ESA) claims that video games, video game systems, and accessories are the most wanted items for the 2013 holiday season. according to the report, approximately 79 million Americans intend to purchase video games during the holiday season, according to new market research and analysis.
Rock Band and Dance Central developer Harmonix has confirmed that it has laid off a number of its staff, though the company says that the number of employees let go is a small number.
"We can confirm that a small number of Harmonix employees were let go today," a Harmonix representative told GameSpot. "This decision was made due to shifting staffing priorities for Harmonix's multiple future projects."
AbleGamers Charity has launched the 2013 AbleGamers Holiday Gift Guide for Gamers with Disabilities.

On behalf of GamePolitics and the Entertainment Consumers Association (ECA), I wish all of our readers in the United States a safe and happy Thanksgiving Day holiday. We also want to wish those who observe Hanukkah (which began yesterday) a joyous and safe holiday season as well. For the rest of the world, we hope you enjoy the rest of the week and in Europe we hope you finally get your hands on those brand new console systems.
You may have noticed that we are not actually in the office today - we are enjoying a lovely Labor Day holiday instead. We will be back tomorrow with "bells on," as the old saying goes (whatever that means). In the meantime this is a good opportunity for you to share what it is you are doing on this day off from work or as the last day off before school or college starts anew for many of you (if you do not have today off then I apologize on behalf of whomever you work for).
Universal Orlando Resort in Orlando, Florida will be adding a video game-themed attraction to celebrate Halloween this year: Resident Evil. The survival horror video game series Resident Evil from Capcom will become a haunted house at Halloween Horror Nights 23 at the amusement park. Other attractions for Halloween Horror Nights 23 include The Walking Dead, Evil Dead, An American Werewolf in London, and Cabin in the Woods.
Since it declared itself from the tyranny of a King and a land thousands of miles away America has not been a perfect place. Even as our founding fathers, who wrote that " that all men are created equal," in the Declaration of Independence, they only acknowledged that a select group of few men could have access to those rights under the law.
On behalf of everyone at the Entertainment Consumers Association and GamePolitics I'd like to wish all of our wonderful readers a very Happy Easter and Passover. The ECA offices are closed in observance of the holiday beginning on Good Friday so expect this space to be relatively quiet unless something ultra exciting happens tomorrow.
We'll be back here with bells on on Monday. As always thank you for reading our publication and for the stimulating and spirited conversations in the comments and the shout box. You are the reason we get out of bed every morning!
Are you at work today? Did you know it's a U.S. federal holiday?
Yep, today is Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, a day we observe the birthday (actually Jan. 15th but we observe it on the third Monday of every January for convenience's sake) of one of our nation's history's greatest orators and civil rights activists.
On behalf of the ECA, our writers and contributors and myself, we wish you a happy, safe and healthy New Year. While 2012 had its fair share of ups and downs, Internet freedom and free speech had a very good year. Draconian laws and treaties that would have limited free speech and taken away our rights to privacy were soundly defeated by a vocal majority in countries all over the world.
Mojang's popular world building game franchise Minecraft had a wonderful Christmas / holiday season, according to tweets from company co-founder and Minecraft creator Markus 'Notch' Persson. According to Notch, the company sold 453,000 copies of the game across all platforms during the Christmas season.

He corrected himself in a follow-up tweet shortly thereafter:
On Christmas day iOS and Android device activations were greater than any other day in history, according to a new report from mobile analytics company Flurry. As highlighted by VentureBeat Flurry claims that over 17 million new smartphones and tablets were activated on Christmas day. Compared to the rest of December, new iOS and Android activations rose a whopping 332 percent on Christmas Day.
As Charlie Brown might say, "Well, another Christmas has come and gone."
