Explaining HyperinflationSubmitted by Peace Gold Love on Sun, 10/07/2012 - 10:55
Zero Hedge: This is a post in three sections. First I want to outline my conception of the price level phenomena inflation and deflation. Second, I want to outline my conception of the specific inflationary case of hyperinflation. And third, I want to consider the predictive implications of this.
Inflation & Deflation
What is inflation? There is a vast debate on the matter. Neoclassicists and Keynesians tend to define inflation as a rise in the general level of prices of goods and services in an economy over a period of time.
Prices are reached by voluntary agreement between individuals engaged in exchange. Every transaction is unique, because the circumstance of each transaction is unique. Humans choose to engage in exchange based on the desire to fulfil their own subjective needs and wants. Each individual's supply of, and demand for goods is different, and continuously changing based on their continuously varying circumstances. This means that the measured phenomena of price level changes are ripples on the pond of human needs and wants. Nonetheless price levels convey extremely significant information — the level at which individuals are prepared to exchange the goods in question. When price levels change, it conveys that the underlying economic fundamentals encoded in human action have changed.
Economists today generally measure inflation in terms of price indices, consisting of the measured price of levels of various goods throughout the economy. Price indices are useful, but as I have demonstrated before they can often leave out important avenues like housing or equities. Any price index that does not take into account prices across the entire economy is not representing the fuller price structure.
Austrians tend to define inflation as any growth in the money supply. This is a useful measure too, but money supply growth tells us about money supply growth; it does not relate that growth in money supply to underlying productivity (or indeed to price level, which is what price indices purport and often fail to do). Each transaction is two-way, meaning that two goods are exchanged. Money is merely one of two goods involved in a transaction. If the money supply increases, but the level of productivity (and thus, supply) increases faster than the money supply, this would place a downward pressure on prices. This effect is visible in many sectors today — for instance in housing where a glut in supply has kept prices lower than their pre-2008 peak, even in spite of huge money supply growth.
So my definition of inflation is a little different to current schools. I define inflation (and deflation) as growth (or shrinkage) in the money supply disproportionate to the economy's productivity. If money grows faster than productivity, there is inflation. If productivity grows faster than money there is deflation. If money shrinks faster than productivity, there is deflation. If productivity shrinks faster than money, there is inflation.

Where is the Inflation?
Our critics always ask us where the inflation is. The answer is that banks are keeping a higher percentage of reserves and new financial securities aren't being created as fast. Second, if not for the massive printing of money, there would be a lot of deflation and the printing press has preventing that. The third reason is that people and firms aren't spending money as fast and the "short-term" savings rate has increased as a result (I'm referring to money velocity). The fourth reason is the official inflation rate is understated because their inflation metrics only look at non-volatile commodities and they exclude real estate because they classify it as an investment.
Basically, unless the money is removed from the money supply first or the required reserve ratio is raised, then as soon as the economy starts to recover, then we will be hit by hyper-inflation.
What is problematic about
What is problematic about measuring inflation in terms of money supply? What's "productivity" got to do with it?
I explain inflation like this:
Door County, WI.
50 years ago it was a group of farming communities noted for their cherries and, more importantly, their delicious and succulent cherry wine.
A hamburger at a Door County restaurant would cost you about what it would cost in Arizona, Pennsylvania, Texas, or Illinois.
Enter the tourists.
Being located on a long peninsula in the middle of a lake which is actually a freshwater ocean, the area is a natural to become a draw for tourists from around the world.
These tourists brought a lot of money with them, and they kept coming back because they found that they could buy hamburgers for the same price they could anywhere else, while enjoying beautiful views (and that wonderful wine).
It took a while, but not too long, for the people who sold the hamburgers to realize that there was suddenly a whole lot more money floating around than there used to be. Cautiously they began to raise the prices of their hamburgers and were delighted to find that the tourists didn't seem to mind - even the ones who hadn't had cherry wine with their breakfast.
Who did mind? The farmers, truck drivers, and high school students who were born and raised there certainly did. They were forced to pay more for their hamburgers, not because of any major improvement to the hamburgers themselves, but simply because there were more dollars out there to be spent on whatever, so supply and demand buoyed up the price of hamburgers.
Supply of dollars goes up
price of dollars in terms of hamburgers (how many burgers you have to sell to get one of the dollars) went down.
In other words, a rising tide lifts all ships: new dollars have to go somewhere - the stock market, gold, commodities, even great wine.
Pandacentricism will be our downfall.
Love Door County
Grew up across the Bay in the U.P.
I don't care for the cherry wine, though. Tastes like cough medicine.
Otherwise, good story.

Though Plum Creek Timber Company reported modest sales gains in the third quarter of 2014, the company's outlook for future growth is tempered by a conservative (and realistic) forecast for housing starts, according to the building products supplier.
Housing starts are expected to increase by only 8% in 2014, leading the company to place residential construction activity at a growth rate of about 10% in 2015.
Plum Creek Timber Company experienced a slow-down in sales during the first quarter of 2014, though a corresponding drop in income was largely expected due to to a timberland sale.
Net revenue for the three months ended March 31 was $317 million, down from $340 million in the same period last year.
Net income for the quarter was $30 million, down 46.4% since the first quarter of 2013.
Despite the weak performance, CEO Rick Holley said he was pleased with the company's performance last quarter.
Plum Creek Timber appointed Timothy Punke as senior VP, corporate affairs and public policy, effective Oct. 1.
His responsibilities will include oversight of government relations, communications, sustainability and environmental affairs. He will report to CEO Rick Holley.
CEO Rick Holley: "We're encouraged by what we're experiencing in our markets and the trends we are seeing in residential construction."
Plum Creek Timber Co. today announced first-quarter earnings of $56 million on revenues of $340 million.
In the same quarter last year, earnings were $29 million, on revenues of $337 million.
"The financial performance of each of our business segments improved compared with the first quarter of 2012," said Rick Holley, CEO. "We're on track to grow our non-real estate adjusted EBITDA by $50 million this year. Our first-quarter growth in this area was $12 million."
Plum Creek Timber Co. has announced revenues of $315 million for its fourth quarter, an 11.5% decrease over revenues of $356 million for the same quarter of 2010. Net earnings for the quarter, which ended Dec. 31, 2010, were $61 million, compared to $59 million a year old.
In year-end figures, Plum Creek reported revenues of $1.16 billion for fiscal 2011, a 2.5% decrease over $1.19 billion in 2010. Net income for the Seattle-based company was $193 million, compared to $213 million for fiscal 2010.
In its second quarter, timber company Plum Creek's shipments of Oregon sawlogs to China went up 7%, compared with the first quarter. China now accounts for 27% of such logs, and Plum Creek CEO Rick Holley sees this relationship as a new status quo.
"While we expect that Chinese demand will exhibit some volatility from time to time, we believe their presence in the North American market is a lasting one that adds a relevant source of demand to West Coast log and lumber markets," Holley told investors.

Time capsules
Lock away your millennium memories for future generations
Greenwich Millennium Dome time capsule
On 20 March 1998 it was announced that the Millennium Dome in Greenwich will be the home for the ideas of two thousand children who are to be selected in a Blue Peter competition that starts on 30 March 1998 on the long running UK TV programme on BBC 1.
The competition is to fill a Time Capsule that will be buried in the centre of the Dome later this year and will stay there until 2050. Children will be asked to submit poems, stories and pictures that will provide a snapshot of their lives as we enter the new millennium.
Using new technology, the work of the children will be scanned into a digital form so that it could be viewed inside the Dome in 2000. It will then not be seen again until the Time Capsule is unearthed 50 years later.
The stainless steel Time Capsule will weigh in at 50 kilos and be buried at a depth of 5 m under the central piazza of the Dome. Another Time Capsule buried at BBC Television Centre in 1971 by the Blue Peter Team is to be dug up sometime in the year 2000.
Timecapsule 2000 - Canada
Timecapsule 2000: Canadians from coast to coast to coast are being asked to share their memories and impressions of what this millennium means to them. Almost anything goes ... a poem, song, short story, part of a diary, a cherished photo, grandpa Stan's war medals, Nana Lucille's special quilt, the signing of the Nunavut Land Claims Agreement ... something of great historical significance or something that is close to the heart like the first harpoon that one of our students made. If you are new to digital technology, ask for help at your local school or Community Access Centre. People there can likely help you transfer your memories into digital form and send them on to the great folks at , the sponsors of this project. They will collect them and store them in a digital time capsule that we hope will be buried under an inukshuk to be built by Inuit in Ottawa on July 1st in the year 2000. From the Leo Ussak Elementary School in the Canadian Arctic.
New Zealand: The World's Biggest Time Capsule
The World's Biggest Time Capsule to mark the millennium in New Zealand.
The structure will be in the form of a large underground Millennium Vault topped on the surface with a pyramid. A vertical wall at the base of the pyramid will feature a bronze bas relief depicting important milestones in the last 1000 years of the nation's history. This main structure will be surrounded by smaller Regional Vaults.
U.S.Time Capsule
Currently the United States Timecapsule Monument is being constructed. It is to be sealed on July 4th, 2000 for 1000 years and in it will hold the human experience of the late 20th century. They are accepting "Free of charge" any photos accompanied with brief descriptions of what/who they are and from where they came. They are looking for something personal or of local historical significance.

The post Atlantic City Show Ticket Discount appeared first on Atlantic City News.]]>
One of the most popular pages on AtlanticCity.com is the show schedule. Here you will find most shows and tickets for the hottest performers. We have dozens of the latest shows and prime seat tickets for many. We act sort of like a StubHub to get you sold out tickets and regularly available.
The fact is many people come to Atlantic City and stay in a hotel when they come to see a show like Jerry Seinfeld or Kiss & Def Leppard or boxing. It can get expensive with hotel, food, tickets and more.
We had a meeting the other day and since hotel rates are in fact higher during the summer, decided to give back. For the rest of the summer at least when you book a room at AtlanticCity.com we will give you a code to save 10% on any ticket purchase.
Look at the show schedule. See the show and the seats you want. Keep in mind that the show schedule forwards to our sister site MyTicketAlert.com. Come back and make a hotel reservation here.

Atlantic City is a great vacation spot with an unlimited number of activities to undertake. You could gamble all day and night, you could sit around your hotel and lounge, you could visit amusement parks, or simply see the sights on the boardwalk. The shopping opportunities are simply phenomenal, and you will find no lack of entertainment. At some point during your stay in Atlantic City, you're simply going to want to unwind, and perhaps visit one of the many shows being offered in the area. As a matter of fact, many visitors to Atlantic City are into comedy shows, and there is nothing quite like sitting down at a comedy club after a busy day of shopping, eating, or even parasailing. There are two major comedy clubs in Atlantic City, each of which provide their very own atmosphere and of course their own charm. There is always a great debate among tourists and residents alike over which club is the best, but as always, it is up to the individual to decide. Let's take a quick look at both options, and you can decide which you like, though you may, as many people do, find that you simply want to visit both of them!
If you're looking for a night of fun and laughter that you will absolutely never forget, then you couldn't possibly go wrong with the Comedy Stop at the Tropicana hotel. Run by Bob Kephart, it has been open since 1983. Every night at 9 PM there are three headline comedians, and new acts every single week. If you need something more however, you will find a fantastic Comedy Magic Show every night at 6 PM.
If you are on a tight budget, you might be worrying about the cost, but there is no need to fear – you're not in Las Vegas. The Comedy Stop has plenty of options even for the most thrifty of travelers who wish to rest their gaze upon the $3 million dollar state of the art theater that has attracted comedians and artists from all over the planet. In fact, more than one thousand highly talented individuals have passed across the stage since the 2004 renovation.
During the renovation, a number of new features were added to the theater, allowing for a more immersive experience than ever before. The theater itself is the real attraction. It might not be the Broadway Theater, but it certainly mimics the style and provides more than 2000 seats for your convenience. The venue now features a number of new flat screen plasma televisions along with additional seating and even a kitchen that's equipped to cook and serve only the finest food to their guests. On the subject of food, this newly re-opened venue features a revamped food menu with plenty of dining options ever day of the week. If you wish to stop by Café Cuisine, you will find a continental menu along with latte and espresso to give you that boost of energy you need during the day and perhaps right before the big show. Of course, what menu would be complete without a good beer and wine section? The Liberal temptations section lists beer, wine various spirits, and of course, frozen specialties like pina coladas, cocotinis, and various high end vodkas.
If you visit the Tropicana and love the Comedy Stop experience, you might want to return a few times throughout the year. Therefore, you can sign up for their "Frequent Laughter Club" which provides you with special privileges throughout the year. You can take a look at the website here: http://www.comedystop.com/frequent-laughs-club.cfm and sign up for the club card which features:
It's the experience of a lifetime, and one that you will most certainly never forget. This might not be the only comedy club in Atlantic City, but it is certainly one of the best, and with shows at just $20 per seat, you can expect the best at the lowest possible price. Compared to other activities in Atlantic City, that is quite the steal!
Tropicana Hotel – 2831 Boardwalk, Atlantic City, NJ 08401(609) 340-4000 http://Tropicana.net
The Music Box theater in the Borgata is nowhere near the size of the Tropicana's at just 1000 seats, but that does not serve to diminish the amazing shows, entertainment, and laughter that permeate the memories of these hallowed halls. Every single night some of the biggest names in comedy take the stage, entertaining the audience as they take up temporary residence in the movie theater style seating.
The venue features state of the art sound and lighting equipment to enhance the experience you have at the Borgata. There are many comedy clubs that feature a low ceiling and dim lights, but this an actual theater with stadium seating. It is a thousand dollar experience available to you for mere pocket change!
The biggest difference between the Borgata and the Trop is the dining. Rather than being served directly inside the theater, you will need to choose your refreshments from a concession stand before you actually enter. Drinks have been said to start at roughly $5 and the price of food varies. This might not be what most would consider a 'comedy club', but it is still an amazing experience nonetheless. The Borgata is where you will come if you want more of a movie theater experience. With ticket entries only costing around $20 and food optional, the Borgata is an outstanding place to come if you just want to sit down and laugh.
On the subject of price, you can purchase a 3 year ticket package which will grant you access to the nightly festivities for the next 36 months at just $199 for one person and $299 for two people.

Atlantic City is getting ready for Independence Day weekend, with the Atlantic City fireworks show at the heart of it—what is July 4th in Atlantic City without fireworks?
Luckily for you, Atlantic City will be holding one of the best firework shows in the country. Starting at 9:30pm, 10,000 fireworks will fill the New Jersey skies in a staggering 20 minute show. Starting at the barge near The Pier Shops at Caesars, the four epicenters of the fireworks will be located at New Hampshire Avenue, Martin Luther King Boulevard, Hartford Avenue, and MGM Resorts Boulevard in the Marina District. With so many fireworks, you are sure to catch a fantastic glimpse of the show!
The fireworks show will be choreographed by the infamous "Fireworks by Grucci" company. As one of the oldest companies in the business, Grucci's impressive portfolio includes work for the Electric Daisy Carnival, the Olympic Games, various Presidential Inaugurations, World's Fairs, and more. Set against music played by Atlantic City's WAYV FM 95.1, the fireworks show is guaranteed to amaze and inspire. July 4th last year also saw the introduction of "Duality," an eight minute visual spectacle which helped usher in other light and sound shows like "Boardwalk Beat" and "Winter Sweet." These breathtaking shows take place every day on the Boardwalk starting at nightfall.
Our recommendation—kick off your Independence Weekend with a good ol' fashioned pub crawl. Start the crawl at Tropicana's Firewaters where you will find one of the largest selections of beers in AC, all at an affordable price. After that, take a walk down the boardwalk to the beach bar at Trump's for the best summer experience of beaches and beers. Finish off the crawl in style at the Mussel Bar at Revel, which includes a stellar lineup of Belgian beers, as well as a Bloody Mary bar.
After your pub crawl, you will be ready to enjoy the amazing fireworks display. The show is completely free, so make sure you find a good spot to take in the whole show. Don't miss out on one of the best shows in Atlantic City!

Among the various Atlantic City hotels and shows you might choose to experience, there's always time for a little bit of shopping. And why not? There are plenty of places to shop in Atlantic City, particularly at the Tanger Outlet. In fact, you might actually experience a number of different shops that you simply don't have back home. Some of the greatest brand names in North America can be easily found at Tanger, including famous names like Columbia and Under Amour. You may have purchased these brands from third party retailers or perhaps even online, but why not go to the source for once and Save Big? The main benefit of Tanger Outlet stores are the big discounts you can find. Sometimes in the 50% off range! Let's take a look at some of the more popular stores that you can visit after visiting the hotels in Atlantic City.
Find Great Deals at the Tanger Under Armour Store
Under Armour features some of the latest and greatest in sports apparel, and it gets even better! Would you believe that it was formed by a former football player? Kevin Plank, a former special team's captain of the University of Maryland football team started the business from his grandmother's basement when he was just 23 years old.
The stock available at Under Armor reflects the experience and skill that Kevin Plank would accumulate over several years of practice, namely the ability to keep his undershirts dry during practice. His experiences prompted him to create a t-shirt of synthetic fabric that would remain dry no matter how much of a beating it took. This practice served as the inspiration for brands like Reebok and others to create their own version of the product, but here, at Under Armour, you can get the real thing — the original.
You can expect to find far more than just t-shirts at Under Armour. In fact, they carry a full line of sports apparel including gloves and shoes, all finely tuned for the athlete in you. To make it even better, the prices are much cheaper than you would find at most sporting goods stores such as Dick's or Sports Authority. Whether you are a raw beginner or a seasoned sports veteran, you can expect to find the apparel you need at amazingly low prices.
Enhance Your Wardrobe with Columbia Sportswear
Columbia is a company that has its roots deep within the clothing community, starting as a small family owned hat distributor. Named for the Columbia River, the company soon began manufacturing its very own products, finally transforming into Columbia Sportswear Company in the year 1960.
Columbia can be considered an 'Evergreen' company, having been responsible for creating products that serve to keep people warm, dry, and cool all year round. The jackets sold by Columbia are very unique in the fact that they feature interchangeable shells and liners, which ultimately serves to create apparel that can be worn any day of the year. The different liner and fabric options have served to fuel sales for many years, encouraging rapid sales growth and a rising popularity in the company's products.
Explore Vineyard Vines for a Unique Style
Vineyard Vines is generally known for creating some of the most whimsical neckties, and features a smiling pink whale logo. The company was started in 1998 on Martha's Vineyard by two brothers: Shep and Ian Murray. They had cut ties with corporate America and began creating a product that contrasted with it greatly. Their ties represented the 'good life', or rather what life used to be before the rushed lifestyle that corporate America would come to represent. They currently offer a line of clothing and accessories for people of all ages and genders. They started with ties, but have continued to increase their product line to include hats, belts, bags, shorts, dresses, etc. The company has expanded nationally since its inception, and was actually on Inc. Magazine's list of the 500 fastest growing businesses in 2007. The company managed to triple its growth between 2004 and 2007.
The clothing line at The Vineyard is targeted to everyone but generally seeks a younger following than the average store. The company works alongside the National Football League, National Hockey League, and Major League baseball to create some of the best sports solutions as well as branded apparel.
Find the Latest Styles at Abercrombie & Fitch
For many years, Abercrombie & Fitch has been associated with luxury as well as privilege. What we have here is an all American company that creates a number of different styles for today's youth, and a respected brand all around. Unlike many brands that have come and gone, Abercrombie is timeless, and will represent the best in today's clothing industry both on the line and in your closet. It's a sure bet that you'll find deep discounts at their Tanger Outlet.
Visit Nautica for Outstanding Swimwear and More
1983 was a turbulent time for style, especially in the area of sports. Many were still trying to figure out just who they were and what they were after in terms of both style and personality. That being the case, it was no surprise to anyone that Nautica managed to take the lead in all styles, filling more than a few sports wardrobes with the best of the best. Nautica products are outstanding for water sports, and the company understand that even if you're in the water, style counts. The swimwear offered by Nautica is beautiful outside of the water, and becomes even more exuberant when submerged. It is the essence of style, even in the deep. This is a store that you will absolutely have to visit before you leave the Atlantic City area.
From Borgata Atlantic City all the way to stores like Vineyard Vines, Tanger in general has stores that sell well below standard retail prices, providing you with some of the most stylish clothing for the ultimate vacation in Atlantic City. Make sure you stop by and give them a shot. You'll never be disappointed when you visit Tanger Outlet in Atlantic City, New Jersey.

The post 4 Hot Summer Activities in Atlantic City appeared first on Atlantic City News.]]>
Atlantic City is without a doubt one of the most popular vacation destinations year round, and with good reason. There are plenty of activities there, from concerts, to fine dining, all the way to amusement parks. If you are heading there this summer however, you will need to make sure you are taking advantage of the exclusive activities. There are some things you can only do in Atlantic City during the summer, and there are some stories that will be exclusive to you. There are plenty of Atlantic City Shows, especially at the Borgata Atlantic City, but those shows can usually be seen year round, especially at many of the Atlantic City Hotels. Let's take a look at four of the most popular summer activities and events that you simply will not want to miss!
Atlantic City Skyline Helicopter Tour
On the Atlantic City Boardwalk over at the Steel Pier you can find an incredible opportunity. Have you ever wanted to see the skyline from above? If so, now is your chance! You have the opportunity to board a helicopter from the end of the Steel Pier and take off into the air on an adventure that you will never, ever forget! This is an example of an activity that will give you the rush you are looking for without draining your wallet in its entirety. In addition, you can always go online and look for coupons which can save you up to half off your admission tickets. Here you will see the skyline in all its glory from the air, and you will be able to do so in great detail as the helicopter soars overhead, dips, and banks, giving you an unprecedented view and the photo opportunity of a lifetime. Most importantly, you will have an incredible story to take home to your friends and family once your summer vacation draws to a close. After all, not many people get to say they saw Atlantic City from the air, at least outside of a fast moving plane.
Presenting yet another summer only activity, at least in Atlantic City, we have parasailing! There is nothing quite like rocketing 500 feet in the air to see the water below, and the beautiful Atlantic City skyline. To be perfectly honest, this is one view that many beach goers and tourists are simply afraid to try out, but once you give it a shot, you'll want to do it again and again! Best of all, no experience necessary!
Feel free to bring up to eleven of your friends (with reservations) and enjoy the roof of Atlantic City as you race across the surface of the water. Atlantic City Parasail is the ONLY parasailing destination in the area, and is a proud member of the Professional Association of Parasail Operators. You are perfectly safe in their hands and in their sails.
Surf School
When you come to the beach, many people want to surf, or at least learn to surf, and why not? You see it all the time on movies, on television shows, and of course in person if you visit the right beaches. Unfortunately, not many people get the chance to learn, either because they do not have the time, or they do not have the equipment. If you're up for a little learning, then you might want to have a look at the Atlantic City Surf School & Club which is located in the Greater Atlantic City Area. With hands on teaching techniques, they can accommodate you whether you are a beginner, intermediate, or advanced student. If you are looking to impress your friends and family when you return from your trip, there is no better way than learning to surf! In addition to that, you'll most definitely attain a great level of fitness if you continue to surf after the fact.
Golfing in Atlantic City
Some come for the Atlantic City Shows, some come for the Atlantic City restaurants or find shopping deals. Still, even more come in the summer for the golf courses, and Atlantic City has plenty of them. The following are a few courses that you might want to try if golfing is your sport of choice.
Twisted Dune Golf Club – This course is fairly challenging, full of ravines, grassy hills, and beautiful scenery which can really throw you for a loop while playing. These natural beauties will also create challenging hazards even for the most seasoned of golfers. With eighteen holes and an ideal location on the Jersey Shore, this is one place any golfer will want to visit.
Sea Oaks Golf Club – If you are looking for more of a championship course, you won't want to miss this 18 hole championship location spread out over 194 acres of land. While it does use the natural landscape for many obstacles and hazards, modern landscaping methods have been put into great use. It is a perfect combination of man and nature for you to enjoy as you make your way down the green.
Renault Winery – It might sounds like strange place to hit the green, but don't let the name fool you! The land features a 7,000 yard 18 hole golf course which compliments Renault's award-winning restaurant.
Links at Brigantine – As with the Twisted Dune golf course, this one has its roots in Scottish golfing tradition, and features a softly rolling terrain, marshes, and is placed directly on a National Audubon sanctuary. If you were looking to get closer to nature while golfing, this is your chance. Over the 18 holes you will see natural beauty as well as man-made triumphs.
Atlantic City has something for everyone this summer whether you're soaring above the waters, soaring above the skyline, or hitting the green. Take a look at the Atlantic City hotels today and book your trip! Remember, there are plenty of discounts to be had, and before you know it, you'll find yourself in absolute paradise whether you're on a family vacation, or simply treating yourself to one of the greatest entertainment destinations on the planet.

The post Casino Wins Down In January For Atlantic City appeared first on Atlantic City News.]]>
While it might only be the second full month of online gambling in Atlantic City, the physical casinos are already seeing a drop in wins and revenue. However, all is not as bad as it sounds for the eleven remaining gaming venues in town.
With the new gaming laws in effect, Atlantic City casinos have started to enter into the online realm and offer their services to a larger demographic. While the land based casino winnings are down over $195 million from the same period last year, the internet revenue is already starting to draw in big bucks for the casino owners. Without this new option, casinos would have seen a drop of almost 10% in revenue for January, rather than the 4.6% which actually was recorded.
In December, the first official month of legalized online gambling, casinos were able to draw in an estimated $7.4 million. By January's close, the number had risen 28% to just under $10 million.
The drop in physical casino earnings wasn't helped with the closing of Atlantic Club Casino Hotel in early January. An announcement is still to be made as to the future of this location.
Coming out on top of the online gambling operations is Borgata, drawing in $3.9 million of the revenue.

Carolina Panthers running back Jonathan Stewart is quietly recovering from a knee sprain and said Monday he feels "pretty comfortable."
Stewart, in his sixth season, hasn't practiced since spraining his MCL against the Saints on Dec. 8, but said he expects to practice on Wednesday.
The Panthers face the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday at 1 p.m. at Bank of America Stadium in the second round of the NFC playoffs.
"It's all up to what the trainers think about how I practice on Wednesday," said Stewart about his availability for Sunday's home playoff game against the 49ers. "I can't get ahead of myself."
Stewart ran on the sideline during practice Monday after weeks of rehab inside the building. He said he's been running at full speed with little to no pain since last week.
"Since Thursday I've been running more and more and I've gotten more comfortable as I've been going," Stewart said.
Stewart had 180 yards on 48 rushes during an injury-shortened regular season. He missed the first eight weeks of the season recovering from offseason ankle surgery before missing the final three games of the season.
Running back DeAngelo Williams is the expected starter no matter Stewart's health for Sunday.
Tight end Ben Hartsock (knee) and safety Quintin Mikell (thumb) also practiced Monday. Mikell has practiced with a cast on his right hand since last week.

Ken Aptekar toys with paintings from the past by using the history of art as his playground. He time-travels beloved masterpieces into the present by his sly repainting joined to his own witty and intimate texts. Here's the idea: Paintings are nothing on their own, they start meaning something only when you start talking back to them. Aptekar's work turns this conviction into paintings on wood panels over which he bolts glass sandblasted with text.

Ive used a memory foam pillow for about 3 years now and I cant sleep on anything else.
I dont know whether it just needs changing now but it feels hard and uncomfortable and if I sleep on my side when I wake up my ear is painful where ive lay on it.
Ive been looking at buying a new one but was wondering if any of you use the contoured one and if so is it comfortable? The one I have now is a normal pillow shape.
Re: Pillows
I hate pillows! I quite often end up sleeping without one. Mine is all squished up and the bit I put my head on is completely flat.
Born 1981 with Spina Bifida Myelomeningocele. Surgery to close lesion at birth. Anterior fusion T11-L5 aged 12. Laminectomy June 06. Posterior fusion with instrumenation T8-T11. Degenerative Disc C4/C5
Waiting for VP Shunt surgery. Under the care of Mr. Tucker who wants to fuse me T2-pelvis!
Re: Pillows
Ouch-i couldnt sleep without a pillow. I only have to sleep with my head slightly slanted and im in pain for a couple of days.
Problem with my memory foam is my head is always in the middle and its permenatly flat there so i reckon it needs replacing.
Theres loads on line but i worry they might be too hard-or are all memory foam ones hard?
Re: Pillows
If my head's too low I get headaches when I wake up, so I have 2 duck feather down pillowcases and a memory foam pillow too
"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary..." - Steve Jobs
Re: Pillows
I've got a variety of pillows! The Tempur one is fairly soft and one side is cool and the other warmer - it's quite heavy and fairly large though. (Got it free with a mattress!)
Hubby bought a memory foam pillow that was meant to be the best thing ever (cost a lot!) but it was too hot and he found it gave him neck ache!
I also like Hungarian Goose Down pillows from M&S they are lovely and you can sink into them and move them anyway you like. http://www.marksandspencer.com/Autog...Brand=core&rh=
Then there are various other types I've tried - such as a John Lewis one that's meant to be as good as feather and down, well it really isn't it's a bit like a boulder! And a Tesco Finest that also promised much the same and didn't deliver. And some other average feather pillows and hollowfibre ones for varying bits of support.
It's a wonder I can actually get into bed with all those pillows!
Re: Pillows
I'm also one with a variety of pillows - I actually have a total of eight on my bed!! I sort of mix and match, depending on how i'm feeling. Two of them are memory foam, but one is waaay more comfy than the other. My favourite one is actually the cheapest one - £8 from Ikea It's 'contoured', and I sleep with the largest wedge part under my neck (I can't use it the other way as it gives me a head/neck ache). The other one is really firm, so I only use that if I need support between my legs while on my side. So yes, i'd say there can be differences between memory foam pillows. I would go along to somewhere like Dunelm (if you have one, if not a similar store) where you can have a feel of all the different types on offer. Of course, what feels nice in the shop might not be that great when it comes to sleeping with them, but it may well be a case of trial and error. Shame we can't do 'try before you buy' isn't it :P
I'm Sally, 31, and I have congenital kyphoscoliosis in association with Spina Bifida, Diastematomyelia and tethered cord. Surgery to detether spinal cord and remove bone spur at Addenbrooke's in 1984 aged 3. Developed 'pes cavus' and weakness in legs, various foot surgeries between '92 and '94. Decompression of spinal cord, hemivertebrectomy and fusion L2-L4 with instrumentation by Mr Crawford and Mr Laing (neurosurgeon) in 1998 aged 17. Had two stage anterior-posterior T10 to pelvis fusion surgery on 27th February 2012 at NNUH by Mr Crawford and Mr Lutchman. Fused well but now curving over top of fusion, so facing fusion extension up to T1. Trying a brace first in order to put off surgery til next year
Re: Pillows
I have a contoured memory foam pillow and I wouldn't swap it for anything Mine is quite soft and I sleep with the smaller end under my neck otherwise I get a cricked neck and headaches! Just goes to show, we're all individuals!!
Me, a Mod? Nah ... I'll always be a rocker
Re: Pillows
I will try Dunhelm Mill, I didnt realise they sold memory foam pillows.
Shame you cant try them like you can with mattresses-might look funny lying on the floor testing the pillow though!
Re: Pillows
The selection of pillows in Dunhelm Mill was fantastic.
I bought a softer memory foam and it was only £15.

I will try and persevere with the pillow as I think you have to get used to them.

Guardian Angel Community Services has been providing social services to Will and Grundy Counties since 1897.
Our mission has been and will continue to be improving the lives of children, families, and individuals.
The Day Treatment Program established in 1976 was renamed in 1999 as the Dillard Harris Educational Center after a prominent Educator and Board Member of Guardian Angel Home.
The program accepts students, grades 5-12, who have been unsuccessful in both regular education and in the special education classrooms within their public school.
The program's therapeutic approach focuses on meeting the student's emotional and academic needs.
Behavior modification and supportive approaches are utilized in helping students develop the skills necessary to return to their home school.
Individual and group therapy are provided to help students understand and overcome the behaviors that have excluded them from the public school setting.
An individualized instructional program is offered to students to correct specific academic skills and deficiencies that have contributed to their behavior problems.

MILWAUKEE (AP) -- Wisconsin-native Jordan Zimmerman pitched his first game against Milwaukee, and his teammates hit three home runs in the Washington Nationals' 4-1 victory over the Brewers on Saturday night.
Zimmerman (8-6) struck out six and gave up five hits in six innings. He was born in Auburndale and played at the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point.
Tyler Clippard pitched the ninth for his 19th save.
Washington center fielder Bryce Harper was a late scratch because of a stomach virus and was replaced by Corey Brown.
In the fourth, Brown's solo homer to left -- his first career hit -- and Tyler Moore's two-run blast gave Washington a 3-0 lead. Ryan Zimmerman added a solo homer in the fifth.
Randy Wolf (3-7) gave up four earned runs on nine hits in seven innings for Milwaukee, which got a home run from Rickie Weeks in the fifth inning.
