King of the World is an American television movie which aired on January 10, 2000 on ABC. It chronicles the early stages of the career of heavyweight boxer Muhammad Ali (then known as Cassius Clay), who is portrayed by Terrence Howard. It is based upon a biography of the same name by David Remnick.[1]
Cast and crew[edit]
- Terrence Howard - Cassius Clay[2]
- Steve Harris - Sonny Liston
- Chi McBride - Drew Bundini Brown
- Gary Dourdan - Malcolm X
- John Ventimiglia - Angelo Dundee
- Jamie "Showtime" Stafford - Young Cassius Clay
Plot summary[edit]
Having won the gold medal for boxing in the light heavyweight division at the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome, Kentucky native Cassius Clay (Terrence Howard) challenges professional heavyweight boxing champion Sonny Liston (Steve Harris) for the title. The media is both intrigued and repulsed by his brash manner and what appears to be self-worship. Despite being a heavy underdog, the 22 year-old Clay shocks the sports world by defeating Liston by technical knockout in their February 1964 bout, becoming heavyweight champion and (metaphorically) "king of the world".
Although it is an American film, King of the World was released on DVD in Region 2 format, which is used predominately in Europe. It has yet to be released in Region 1 format, which is compatible with DVD players used in the United States and Canada.

Does anyone know anything about the Olevia LT30HV 30" HDTV-Ready Flat-Panel LCD TV? $1,389.94 seems a little too good for a 30" wall mountable HDTV ready television. There's got to be a catch.
[On the subject of TV, what's with TiVO-To-Go not being available on Mac?]
In B-school speak, it looks like a "new market entrant" using "penetration pricing" to gain "market share." It will either be a solid brand 5 years from now, or on the ash heap of CE goners. Chances are, the Sonys of the world will eventually engineer themselves down to these price points, and wipe out the Olevias. Just search for "Brooksonic" on Amazon and notice how many of their products are not discontinued (0). I got her majesty a Brooksonic DVD/VCR combo last christmas for $88.00. At that price I don't care who they are.
I like to look at the customer ratings. Amazon customers seem to like it. Or you can go to one of the hardcore HDTV fan message boards like this one: http://www.hdtvoice.com/voice/index.php and see what the real geeks have to say (if anything)
tivo-to-go is "coming" soon to the mac...
i went through the reviews of this tv. 1/2 are glowing 5 stars and 1/2 are warning not to by it. nothing in the middle.
Yeah. Half glowing from the JJG's of the world, and half ranting from the Studio2f's of the world. Who's it for?

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Pioneer spirit, prairie resting place
Brandon songwriter bringing Winnipeg-born showbiz legend Bob Nolan home for posthumous honour
For western-music pioneer Bob Nolan, this really is the end of a long, dusty trail.
The Winnipeg-born western music legend, a founding member of the famed Sons of the Pioneers, died in 1980 in California and, according to details of his labyrinthian life story, never actually knew he was born in Manitoba. But this week, with the help of the current version of Sons of the Pioneers, Nolan will be given a final resting place in his prairie hometown.
Retired radio broadcaster and aspiring country songwriter Brian Bergquist of Brandon is the man behind the effort to bring Bob Nolan home, and he says this weekend will mark an important milestone in Manitoba's country-music history.
"It's a very unique story -- very sad in parts -- and I'm proud of the fact it's coming full circle," Bergquist, 64, said this week in a telephone interview from his Brandon home. "Maybe it's my age talking, but I'm hoping Bob is going to be looking down from cowboy heaven and thanking all the people involved for bringing him home."
As part of a special tribute to Nolan, the Sons of the Pioneers will perform at the Pantages Playhouse Theatre on Monday (7:30 p.m., tickets $53.25 at Ticketmaster).
Nolan, who was born Robert Clarence Nobles in Winnipeg in 1913, survived a broken home, a difficult and transient childhood and a move to the U.S. that, by today's standards, might be considered to have been a cross-border child abduction.
After spending his adolescence in Arizona -- including a broken marriage of his own as a teenager -- he ended up in Los Angeles, where he began working as a lifeguard in Santa Monica while trying to launch a career as a singer.
After answering a newspaper ad seeking "Yodeller for an old-time act, to travel. Tenor preferred," Nolan met a young musician/actor named Leonard Slye, who would later change his name to Roy Rogers. In 1934, they teamed with Tim Spencer to form the Sons of the Pioneers, a group that would become a huge radio sensation with such Nolan-penned tunes as Tumbling Tumbleweeds, Cool Water and There's a Roundup in the Sky.
During his career, Nolan wrote and performed western music and appeared in nearly 100 movies. He retired from show business in 1949 and went into semi-seclusion while continuing to write songs. In 1971, he was inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame. He released his last album, Bob Nolan: The Sound of a Pioneer, in 1980 at age 72.
The Sons of the Pioneers, with various rosters of singers and musicians, have continued to perform for more than 70 years. It was Bergquist's love of their traditional musical style that led him to the unusual story of Bob Nolan, and of Nolan's Winnipeg roots.
Also a native of Winnipeg, Bergquist began his broadcasting career in Thompson and Brandon before heading west to posts in Alberta and B.C.; eventually, his radio-related travels took him to the Yukon, where he found inspiration in the work of Canadian poet Robert Service (The Cremation of Sam McGee) and wrote his own book of verse, Poems From the Pumps of My Robert Service Station.
A couple of musicians he'd met in Whitehorse suggested that some of his poems could be turned into songs; with the support of management at the radio station, Bergquist rounded up a makeshift band and recorded a couple of CDs.
Bergquist retired after a 33-year career in radio. He and his wife moved back to Brandon in 2002, where he joined a cowboy poetry group and began performing at local events. After recording another CD, Cowboy Coterie, last year, he decided to send a sample of his music to his favourite group, Sons of the Pioneers.
Much to his surprise, the band's manager listened to the CD and shared it with the group, then later called Bergquist to offer a few words of encouragement.
It was while reading about the Sons of the Pioneers on the band's website (www.sonsofthepioneers.org) that Bergquist discovered Nolan's Winnipeg roots and decided it was time for the country-music legend to be fittingly honoured in his hometown.
His research put him in touch with Nolan's grandson, Calin Coburn, who revealed that after Nolan's death, his ashes were spread by the wind in a favourite spot in the Mojave Desert. But Coburn's mother -- Nolan's daughter -- kept part of her father's remains, which remained in the family's possession for more than three decades.
Upon hearing about Bergquist's hometown tribute plans, Coburn and historian Elizabeth Drake McDonald -- who co-created the Bob Nolan website (www.bobnolan-SOP.net) -- suggested that Winnipeg would be an appropriate final resting place for the remainder of Nolan's ashes.
"Of course, I'm very honoured," said Bergquist. "I never thought, at the beginning of this, that I would literally be bringing Bob Nolan home."
The Sons of the Pioneers will play five shows in Manitoba -- three in Brandon on Friday and Saturday, one in Winkler on Sunday and then Monday's date in Winnipeg. A private memorial service for Nolan will be held earlier on Monday at the Fort Garry Hotel, and Bergquist revealed that Bob Nolan will also be named the first inductee into the fledgling Manitoba Country Music Hall of Fame.
"And I'm doing something special on 65th birthday, in February -- I'll be establishing the Bob Nolan Western Music scholarship, which will be a yearly contest for writers of western music," he said. "We're going to start it in Manitoba and then work out to the rest of Canada in the second year, and the Sons of the Pioneers themselves will be picking the winning songs."

Historical Traveler Reviews Paladim Aparthotel Albufeira
Thomas Cook And this hotel stink
We have just returned from this hotel, all other reviews are pretty good which is why we went!
We were given a room on the outside of the hotel which did not get any sun, alright hobsons choice normally but 90% of the rooms on the other side were EMPTY we asked on the first day for a move Hotel staff werte not accomodating too much bother, we asked the Thomas Cook rep he said we would see on Thursday 3 days left of holiday asked but no luck in fact he looked bimused in other words he did nothing about it!
Spoilt the holiday in fact the resort has not a lot to offer and we will not be returning
Great base for a holiday.forget k.f.c etc.Go to Don Carlos or Casa Vieja (Old house)But use the excellent eden bar as they really look after you there
Very friendly hotel
Lovely hotel, very friendly staff. The hotel lies between the old town of Albufeira and the new town, this is more for the youngsters. When my husband and I arrived we were given a studio apartment when I specifically ordered an apartment, the staff were very obliging and we were given an apartment, it was a beautiful apartment and we had two balconies overlooking the pool, we were well pleased. Close by there is a supermarket but don`t be put off the supermarket caters for everyone. Every morning my husband would go down to get fresh bread for breakfast plus there is an array of shops for us girls, plus laundry facilities. The fish market is close by and within a short walk down hill to the old town where we spent most of our time. The only minus point would be that Albufeira does not cater for the very young, but us being middle aged we found it fab.
Loved every minute
me and my family stayed at this fantastic hotel for two weeks this summer. I found it so hard to leave as it was the perfect holiday. The friendly staff and calming atmosphere will have you wanting to keep on coming back every year. The pool was lovly and a great size for the hotel, It never seemed to get busy. Being in walking distance to the brilliant old down and the lively strip is a huge bonus. The bar at the hotel is also great and nice for a quiet drink. There is also a games room for children and teenagers. I met loads of great people on the holiday, everyone is so friendly and it makes it so easy to make friends. The best holiday I have ever been on and I will defiantly be coming back.
Paladim aparthotel. brilliant
we stayed at the paladim and it was brilliant. the one bed apartment was lovely. very big and a modern. we were overlooking a busy main road which we found really entertaining of an evening when we were sitting on our balcony with a brandy. the staff at the paladim were all lovely and the maids cleaned the rooms every day and brought clean towels. the location was ideal, a 15 minute walk to the left takes you to fishermans beach and old albufeira or turn right and its the same walk to the strip. if you dont fancy the walk, the train stops nearly outside the hotel and it runs every 15 minutes. all in all we couldnt fault the paladim. it was lovely. they had entertainment on as well and the staff in the bar were so friendly. cant wait to go back
Great Staff
I liked the Paladim very much.
Great staff and great service. I was with a friend who is disabled and the staff and room was great. I emailed the manager before our arrival to check about the room being for disabled and she replied very quickly to confirm that it was.
Yes it is very basic but thats what selfcatering is all about. Albufeira itself is a very nice place, but with a wheelchair to push all week it was a little HILLY. Taxi's are cheap enough.
Supermarkets on the doorstep help alot. We tried lots of local places to eat and the food was always to a great standard. Eden bar does great snack type meals if you just want to laze about at the apartments all day.
Hope you all have Fun..
Fab location, brill resort and good apartments
The Paladim is an ok 4 star accomodation the one bedroom apartments are spacious and overlook the pool and a quiet road. The studio's aren't bad either but they overlook a busy road but when patio doors are closed you don't notice this. The Eden's bar located by the pool serves a variety of lo cost snacks and drinks and Ina the waitress is a really nice girl.
We went as a family including myself, my fella, my 10 yr old daughter, my one year old son, my mum and my fella's mum and dad. We had one 1 bedroomed apartment and two studio's everyone was happy with the accomodation and location.
Two good supermarkets minutes away, the tourist train stop minutes away just past the Modela supermarket outside the Brisa Sol apartments which stops in the new town called the strip and the old town(3 euro's for the whole day). Taxi rank outside the Modela. Bella Vista crazy golf and fun park over the road good fun 18 holes.
For eats Pizza hut in Modela, McDonalds and KFC over the road we didn't try these but they are there. In the strip seek out the Cockerel Country Kitchen the best place we found to eat most of the others are much of a muchness. We went three times and loved it.
Didn't do any trips but we did get a taxi to Loule on the Saturday and visited the Gypsy market ok but lots of same stalls but worth a wander if a cloudy day. Hope you found this useful we will be going back again.
Brilliant apartments
i thought the apartments were spot on and the staff are really nice and friendly they are situated in a perfect place between the strip and the old town as soon as we got back last year we booked up for this year so if any one is there the middle two weeks of april i look forward to seeing you and having a drink in the bar during happy hour, cant wait to see all the friendly staff again see you all soon
The Beds and Sat TV are Cr*p- But its Clean & friendly
We spent Euro 2004 here and really enjoyed our time - The beds are horrible in the studio apartments and rubist sat tv (mostly german channels) this could be enough to spoil most holidays but Edens bar is really friendly especially Claudia behind the bar who made us feel like friends not just customers - The rooms are frequently cleaned and there is no real faults - Location could be better as it is a little far from the beach and there is quite a hill to the old town.
Other than that its above average if just for Claudio and the friendly bar staff at Edens.
Apartment On The Roundabout!
Aparthotel Paladim is situated right opposite the roundabout with two watches. The building is quite new, modern and very clean. Most rooms face the gardens and pool area which is very pleasant, and very close to shops. A few rooms (such as ours) face a large traffic island, where hours of fun can be had watching traffic jams come and go, gardeners mow the grass and unwary tourists look the wrong way and sometimes get knocked down! Most entertaining are the traffic police, with their whistles and Captain Scarlet Hats!If you are over fifty I suggest you do not opt for a studio apartment, as the put-u-up bed is not blissful for older bones, but in every other respect our apartment was light, airy and well equipped.Full marks to the Edens Bar in the basement and to Hose' and Fatimah who run it. They were very friendly and helpful and snacks were excellent. It's just a shame they weren't patronised more.Should you tire of the unrelenting Steak on a Stone in the restaurants (special mention for the wonderful Pot Dourado), then McDonalds and KFC are both just across the road, as is Pingo Doce - the best supermarket chain in the world.Dhould anyone reading this be visiting the Paladim, please say Hi from Sara and Dave in Derbyshire.

January 29, 2015
Alvor was a treat. Arriving at about lunchtime we went to look at the Aire which was huge open and pretty full. Parked up by the beach instead and had Lunch and LUDO had a run before deciding to go to a site. We stayed for two nights in the 'tranquil' part of the camp. We were in a verdant hollow surrounded by green with our own BBQ almond trees and beautiful birds. Weather was a bit drizzly but it ...
... chained on a 3 meter chain. They never meet other dogs and live their lives on that tiny piece of gods earth and man's s chain. They are so desperate for company they bark viciously, which is their man given job, while desperately wagging their tails with their lonely dog hearts. I presume it is a security thing. The sound of Portugal for me will forever be the tiny plonk plonk of olives dropping on the roof, the clakking of the storks and the whole night ...
... beach and a loll in the sun. Meet up with the Hensman's but bike battery fails up the very steep return hill. Lovely and warm in the sun though. Sue's cooking tonight so a treat not to have to cook or wash up and clean sheets at the end of it all. Can't really get much ...
The Ria Formosa & The Rain in Spain
... we drove out of the still deserted town avoiding branches and debris strewn across the roads. It was in fact the beginning of three days of torrential rain storms during which a mini tornado hit Torremolinos. We got into trouble in the next campsite in Sanlucar. Lashing down with rain again Richard turned the Burkemobil carefully in the water logged grounds but unable to grip the wheels spun and spun splattering mud everywhere. And Bogged down along with a ...
A Day at the Beaches (not all fun!)
... to head for the beach. Marbella boasts a wonderful promenade where people walk, jog,and ride bikes along the beach. Today it was crammed with people as there was a four day festival going on called Walk With Me. Each day people joined together and walked a 20 km route to raise money for a worthy charity. Again there were lots of people in the water, sunbathing , and sitting in the restaurants that lined the promenade. It was time for us to do the same, so we ...

Hello sweet thang. No it wasn't guilt, but reget and or remorse, My brother hunted one nite and told me of a female rabbit he had killed. upon gutting it she had five little ones inside. he took them out clean them up with moss that was hanging from a tree and put them in a tree stump. yea like they were going to survive. I went and retrieve those little ones and raised them off of a cat that had kittens. The cat licked them like they were her own....I turned them loose when they were old enough to eat grass and be on thier own......
For ever Vigilant..... One Shot One Kill.........
Not a hunter, just an avid recreational shooter myself.....
but I would like to weigh in by saying that American traditions like hunting even for sport can have a HUGE positive impact on wildlife populations. Species of wild deer, boar, etc can have a devastating impact on our environment if left untouched. Most have no natural predators so yes, hunting is the only way to keep these numbers from exploding exponentially. In many parts of PA where I live, deer have now infiltrated and exploded in numbers in most suburban areas.....they do not belong here and are causing auto related deaths and accidents in record numbers. Seeing deer roving in numbers across people's driveways and business parking lots is disturbing. That also impacts us financially in terms of insurance policies, etc.
Deer hunting is not only an American tradition, its now crucial to controlling its population. My $.02 from a non-hunter perspective
Dead Bears, the only good kind.
Before humans, there was harmony. Nature ran its course. And mother nature will do as she's always done. Start anew....... What will you come back as......The human mind......what a waste.........Gello, bear with me......
Hunting is part of nature, many animals in this world hunt, including humans. Humans have the tools to inflict a kill as quickly and efficiently as possible unlike many wild animals who kill by running down a prey animal to exhaustion and suffocating or bleeding it to death, it is just part of nature, you have to kill it before you grill it. It is also fun, it is a challenge it is camaraderie with family and friends it is tradition, I don't care who hunts for what reason as long as they don't waste their kill. I do however have a slight problem with some of the donation programs in my area, since that started there have been some folks who kill many whitetail and donate them, the cost to clean these deer at processing plants comes from license fees, which continue to rise, processing a deer is quite expensive, around $90 without any fancy stuff added in. These guys will buy their 1 buck tag then buy multiple doe tags and go around killing does until the decide to shoot a buck, these are the same guys who complain about there not being any deer in the woods. I have no problem with harvesting a doe or 2 for feeding the family, I have done it many times when the opportunity for a buck hasn't presented itself and season is drawing close to end, but I wouldn't do it just for the heck of it and donate the meat. If you want a trophy then wait for the trophy, don't kill everything else in the woods while you are waiting for your buck.
Vote Scott Walker for Governor June 5th 2012
the only thing I feel guilty about is not hunting more than I do....especially with my sons.
We use what we kill. There are even venison food shelf donations that take place in my state (Minnesota), so there is no excuse for wastage. I have no problem with 'trophy' hunters as long as they fill their tags legally.
I don't watch Bambi, helps me avoid internal conflict lol
As to deer hunting.HAPPINESS IS A HUGH GUT PILE!!
US Naval Aviation AMSC 20 years ( retired) ASW/Aircrew Wings, P2V plane capt.
US Naval Academy (DI) Shooting Instructor (Annapolis) NDW shooting team member and a lot more stuff!
Alway keep your six covered
Ain't no party like a Libertarian party
When ever I here the word FUN in hunting in todays society it raises a red flag........Is it just me.......????????..........If you want to have fun, go by the laws in La. and kill all the nutria you can and make five bucks a tail doing it....And you might even get on T.V. doing it........

Manufacturer: Allegheny Mountain Trail Saddle
Model: Western
Category: Trail Saddles
Purchase: After trying several off the shelf brands of saddles, that did not fit my horse, nor myself, I started shopping for a custom saddle. Found just what I needed with Allegheny Mountain saddles. The tree was custom made to fit my horse. Chose the hardware, tooling, base color and overlays of my dream saddle. Paid below the cost of the well known off the rack assembly line models.
Likes: The attention to the specific needs of my horse and I were taken into account. This is a unique one of a kind saddle. The quality of the leather is amazing.
Dislikes: That I didn't out fit my horse in one before causing him years of discomfort with poor fitting equipment.
Quality: All of the components of the saddle are of the highest quality.
Summary: Do yourself and your horse a favor. Get a fitting!!

Hey Risos, I can relate to what's going on with you because if I don't use a dark enough color I look blah but if the color is too dark I look like a ghost.
For temporary solutions, play around with makeup! Usually, my hair fades a bit after coloring, so yours may soften up a little. Good luck
2/c and some 3A.
Protein sensitive but can use occasionally
Highly porous. Color over grey.
Best 1st day method: Super Soaker
Stylers: Mix Curls in a Bottle into everything for shine. Terrible pj
Sometimes try roller sets - classic glamor but I prefer my curls.
Every day is a gift

The Blue Dolphin Inn went above and beyond our expectations for our stay on 9/15/12.
Their check-in time is 3 pm; however, upon giving them our dilemma of having to be at a wedding, they had our room ready by 12:30 pm. The room was neat, clean, the beds comfortable, and included a mini fridge. My wife said that the pool was clean and well maintained. Although we did not dine at the restaurant next door to the inn, there were many cars in their parking lot.
We highly recommend the Blue Dolphin Inn for excellent lodging at a reasonable price.

Gaming devices, such as slot machines, card game machines, keno machines, and other machines for wagering, have become a staple of the casino industry. Different aspects of gaming devices appeal to players and casino operators. Players appreciate lively, entertaining games that allow for a variety of game outcomes to keep their interest. Casino operators appreciate these qualities as well, because they attract players and result in repeat play, but casino operators further value gaming machines which allow for fast game resolution and a variety of types of wagering.
Players of gaming devices have various ways of determining which gaming devices are worth playing at particular times. For example, if a particular gaming device makes several payoffs in a short period of time, there will be a perception of that gaming device as a �hot� gaming device worth playing. There is, however, an incentive for a player playing a hot gaming device to continue playing that device, so that onlookers will not have the opportunity to try their own hands at the hot device. Further, many gaming devices use fairly simple games and controls, such as controls for merely initiating a spin of slot machine reels, or selecting cards from a dealt hand. Thus, players generally spend less than all of their attention on a single game. Both casino operators and players value gaming situations that engage players more completely, and the lack of alternative gaming modes for players to pay attention to results in a less engaging gameplay experience.
The combination of: (a) players spending less than all their attention on a single game; and (b) players noticing other �hot� machines, creates in players a feeling that they would rather be playing the games they are noticing rather than the games they are playing. There exists a need for a gaming system and method that more completely engages a player by providing an opportunity for a player to participate in the gaming on a particularly exciting machine.
According to one embodiment of the present invention, a primary gaming device is linked to one or more linked gaming devices. The primary game device provides a player with wagering options for a primary game and further provides the player with information regarding linked games and options for wagering on linked games.
According to another embodiment of the present invention, a primary gaming device is provided with a primary game display allowing a player to view and wager on a primary game and a linked gaming display allowing a player to view and wager on linked games provided by gaming devices in communication with the primary gaming device.
According to another embodiment of the present invention, a primary gaming device provides a primary game having one or more possible primary bonus game outcomes and further provides a linked game display displaying results of linked games played on linked gaming devices, with the linked games on linked gaming devices having one or more possible linked bonus game outcomes.
According to still another embodiment of the present invention, a primary game is wagered upon concurrently with wagering upon one or more linked games, with wagering in a linked game being put on hold upon a linked bonus game outcome occurring. The linked bonus game is played in a primary game display following the completion of a primary game, a primary game outcome, or a primary bonus game outcome.
The above summary of the present invention is not intended to represent each embodiment, or every aspect, of the present invention. This is the purpose of the figures and the detailed description which follow.
The foregoing and other advantages of the invention will become apparent upon reading the following detailed description and upon reference to the drawings.
While the invention is susceptible to various modifications and alternative forms, specific embodiments have been shown by way of example in the drawings and will be described in detail herein. It should be understood, however, that the invention is not intended to be limited to the particular forms disclosed. Rather, the invention is to cover all modifications, equivalents, and alternatives falling within the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
Gaming devices and methods according to the present invention present a player with a number of gaming opportunities, and a variety of game types may be used in connection with the present invention to allow players to participate in more involving gaming experiences.
Wagering may be accomplished in a number of ways. According to some embodiments of the present invention, wagering and payoffs are accomplished using a credit system, with each credit representing a basic value of the gaming device. For example, on a $0.25 slot machine, each credit is worth one quarter, while on a $1.00 slot machine, each credit is worth one dollar. Credits are allocated to the player based on money input into the machine, either in the form of cash or in the form of another payment means, such as a credit card, debit card, smart card, or the like. Alternatively, devices and methods according to the present invention may be implemented using a cash-only system in which dollar values rather than credits are depicted on game display areas.
According to some embodiments of the present invention, gaming may be enhanced by providing the player with a number of pay lines 26. Multiple pay lines 26 allow a player to win with a number of combinations of symbols displayed in the primary display 12 in alternative patterns. According to some embodiments of the present invention, the number of pay lines 26 available for winning combinations increases as a player's wager increases, with each additional credit wagered increasing the number of pay lines available. The embodiment of
Several types of basic game outcomes are possible, according to the configuration of the symbols 24 after the play of a game. Generally, basic game outcomes result in payoffs of credits to a player or the loss of credits as a result of a non-winning play. Some basic game outcomes may result in bonus games for the player. A bonus game may be displayed in the primary display 12 and allow a player to make choices which enable bonus outcomes beyond the basic game outcomes made available by the gaming device 10. Alternatively, the bonus game may be displayed in a secondary display 28. Implementations of bonus games are described in U.S. Pat. No. 6,190,255 B1 which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
Turning now to
Further, a communications module 40 coupled to the CPU 32 may send information relating to the gaming device 10 to a central information system and/or other, linked gaming devices, receive casino and gameplay related information from a central information system, or receive information from linked gaming devices. Communications modules 40 may be network cards, for example, in an embodiment where gaming devices are connected in a local area network (LAN). Alternatively, communications modules 40 may be modems. According to some embodiments of the present invention, a CPU 32 is further coupled to a secondary display 28, which may be adapted to display linked games or graphics associated with a primary game. Either or both of the primary display 12 and the secondary display 28 may be touch-screen displays adapted to display choices to a player, accept player selections, and forward information on player selections to the CPU 32. This may also be accomplished via the use of light pens as known in the gaming art.
Gaming devices may be positioned next to other gaming devices, for example in lines or banks of gaming devices on a casino floor.
To enable such participation, the gaming devices are provided with communications modules 40 (also see
According to one embodiment of the present invention, gaming devices capable of sending information to and receiving information from one another are considered linked gaming devices. Thus, in
According to another embodiment of the present invention, a primary gaming device may receive information from a linked gaming device without sending information from the primary gaming device to the linked gaming device. Such an embodiment may be useful in an implementation in which only certain gaming devices are adapted to receive information from linked gaming devices and allow wagering on linked games.
Selections of linked games for wagering may be enabled by a linked game display provided on a gaming device. The linked game display may be provided as a separate display from a primary game display or as a picture-in-picture or split screen display on a single display.
The primary display 12 of
Selecting a pay table button 60 allows a player to view the possible payoffs of a gaming device, including payoffs based on a number of credits wagered and a number of pay lines selected. Selecting a help button 62 may light an attendant light to indicate that a player needs assistance, or provide on-screen instructions regarding game play. A collect button 64 allows a player to change all credits into another exchange medium, such as cash from the machine, a credit certificate, or credit to a casino card, credit card, or debit card. The number of credits currently available to the player may be displayed via a credit display 66.
Upon selection of a number of pay lines and the number of credits wagered per pay line, a total wager may be displayed in a total wager display 68. Once a player is satisfied with the wager amount, the player may initiate game play by selecting a reel spin button 70. Rather than manually selecting the number of pay lines and the wager per line, a player may choose to bet the maximum amount on a single spin by selecting a maximum wager spin button 72. Following game play, the number of credits, if any, awarded in a payoff may be displayed in a payoff display 74.
In addition to the games carried out in the primary display 12, a player is given the opportunity to view and participate in linked games as shown in the secondary display 28. In an alternative embodiment, the displays in the primary and secondary displays are switched, or switchable by the player, so that the player may choose an appropriate viewing option depending on which screen the player prefers to focus on. The display area showing linked games and options relating to linked games may be termed a linked game display. Thus, the linked game display may be physically displayed in a primary display or in a secondary display. Alternatively, a linked game display and a primary game display may both be displayed on a single, combined display.
According to one embodiment of the present invention, a linked game display displays one or more linked game areas. The embodiment shown in
A first linked game participation indicator 86 informs a player as to whether the player is wagering on a first linked game. A first linked game participation button 88 gives the player the option of wagering on the first linked game. A credit indicator 90 displays the number of credits available to the player for wagering. The embodiment of
The linked game display of
The first linked game area 76 of
According to one embodiment of the present invention, wagers placed on linked games will remain at the same level for subsequent plays of wagered linked games unless terminated or altered by the player. Alternatively, wagers may be terminated following each play of a linked game, requiring manual renewal of the wager by the player. According to another embodiment, players may be given a choice to match the wagers placed by a person playing a linked game.
A player may be allowed to control only the amount wagered per pay line on a linked game, with the number of pay lines chosen by the player of the linked game, or a player may be allowed to control only the number of pay lines played on a linked game, with the wager per pay line chosen by the player of the linked game. Some linked games may be provided with only one pay line, further simplifying wagering on linked games. Each of these embodiments allows a player to initiate and control wagering on a linked game with simple serial presses of linked game selection buttons 96 or within linked game areas on a linked game display.
Turning now to
Turning now to
In the embodiment of
In the embodiment shown in
As shown in
According to one embodiment of the present invention, a linked game display displays statistical and/or financial information about linked games to allow a player to make an informed decision on which of several linked games to participate in.
It is to be understood that gaming devices and methods according to the present invention may take a variety of forms. For example, in an embodiment having two displays, primary and secondary displays may be implemented using a variety of types of display technologies, including CRTs, LCDs, and plasma displays. According to one embodiment of the present invention, a gaming device 10 is adapted to accept a player card at a player card acceptor 23, shown in
While the present invention has been described with reference to one or more particular embodiments, those skilled in the art will recognize that many changes may be made thereto without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Each of these embodiments and obvious variations thereof is contemplated as falling within the spirit and scope of the claimed invention, which is set forth in the following claims.

Design Lifestyle Interview. | #foodcurated "#NaughtyTreats" (@SkeeterNYC) vimeo.com/108232790
"The donuts give our bakers a chance to be naughty, really. We literally carpet bomb them with sugar."
Meet Justin Gellatly, the head baker of Bread Ahead Bakery located at the popular food stalls in London's Borough Market. Good fortune brought me to Bread Ahead early one morning in England. A wave of heavy rock blasted from the kitchen, while an army of men in white danced to the beat of their own bread making. But, I wasn't here for the bread this morning, I was here for Justin's legendary custard-filled donuts – a menu item so famous and so blogged about, sometimes, even Justin admittedly can't cope with it.
My local journalist friend, Felicity Spector, suggested this story and I am forever grateful. Justin is a modern day Willy Wonka of sorts – a true craftsman who delights in the wonder of his creations. Watch as his eyes light up when talking about the experience of eating his donuts. There's a cheeky amusement to it, a sense that he's recreated the magical experience of being a kid again.
I tried to share one of his donuts. A novice mistake, as these are not made for sharing. In one bite, you instantly want to be alone. The gush of cream is surprising, and it ends up everywhere! On your nose, on your cheeks, all over your fingers. Moments later, you find no matter how much you've licked and wiped away, there is still more custard. An everlasting memory of the most famous donuts in London. Enjoy his story.
Thanks for watching food. curated.! Keep in touch:

Sports Culture Interview. | Jamal Crawford "@JCrossover" Documentary http://youtu.be/haPEG-CAKsM
We had the pleasure of spending our summer in Seattle with the LA Clippers' Jamal Crawford as he hosted his annual Seattle Pro-Am league. For two months, we captured highlights and conducted interviews with Pro-Am players like Isaiah Thomas & Tony Wroten as well as Seattle basketball legends like Gary Payton and Brandon Roy who talked to us about Jamal and how committed he is to giving back to his community.
We also talked to Jamal about his basketball journey that started at home with a yellow Dr J basketball to playing pick-up games with the original Lob City crew of Gary Payton and Shawn Kemp while Crawford was still in high school to the University of Michigan and then to the NBA where he has been breaking records and throwing lobs to Blake Griffin as part of the modern day Lob City.

Reader comments are listed below. Comments are currently closed and new comments are no longer being accepted.
it seems you greeks are spoiled by cheap loans, even 5% interest is too much for you, do you know that when america and uk bailed out their own financial institutions most of the interests are in excess of 8%, some even over 12%.
@Andover Chick
don't worry about that, the bail-out will be delievered in tranches, each tranch is attached with strings, the greeks can only receive the next tranch after they've done what they are told.
While I would not deny that the situation can be described as being "dramatic", I am truly baffled by the apparent "duel" involving Greece and Germany and leaving aside all other member countries of the Eurozone-- as well as the UK as a EU member state. Consider: France, Italy, the Netherlands, Belgium, etc. will be required to contribute as much (proportionally speaking) as Germany; even troubled Portugal, which is already suffering from the crisis, will be contributing. Yet I have not observed similar outcries as in Germany. Is it a matter of them hiding their true feelings, or equally plausibly that they see no point in adding fuel to the fire? Finally, I must confess being perplexed by the attitude in the UK, which seems to view this as being irrelevant to them, on the basis of the currrency alone; yet the UK is a member state of the EU (which at the very least should raise the issue of community solidarity), and perhaps as importantly, UK-based banks have significant stakes in Greece's debt. In reference to the title of this article, I would therefore need to stress that if Greece is the (unidentified) borrower, Germany (unidentified) is certainly not the the sole lender...
The part of this all of us might find hard to understand is how a government that implemented the IMF restrictions or ones imposed by the EU could ever hope to win the next election. Polls show pretty conclusively that the Greek voter does not believe austerity is required or that they caused the problem.
Because I have been following this saga in detail for the last 6 months, I want to make it clear that the Greek people have been told 1% of what is happening today. The politicians have been deciding and slowly leak the progress news as they develop. When people knew that there is a financial problem ,noone did anything to inform them of the severity of it, so it became a Greek debt issue and then a European debt issue and then a bond problem and so on. What is the alternative to this 'bailout' noone knows. what are the consequenses of a Greek default , or even a cut off from the Eurozone,is it better or worse again everyone in Europe thinks it's 'anathema'. Is Greece the bad messenger, or the Trojan Horse, that was carefully built for a specific plan that is now in developement. The fact is that Europe was completely unprepared for that. I always wandered how can you have a common currency with almost non existant economic policies. Time will show.
There is a quite bizarre side effect of the greek bailout plan. Portugal's participation is about 774 millions at 5% rate. Today Portugal's 10-yr bond spread is 5.36%. Most probably Portugal will be a loser in this bail out scheme, or it will just make it with a marginally positive interest rate.
German tax-payers are justified to be worried that they throw away money in a debt black hole. On the other hand, German banks exposure to greek debt is $43bn. There is a cynical line of thinking that says let Greece default and let German and French bankers pay the risk for lending an errant state.
But things are more complicated since euro is at stake.
I think that here we have two issues with different origins that interact.
Issue no 1: Greece's profligacy and repeated tampering with numbers.
Issue no 2: Coordination of fiscal policies in eurozone.
The above two imply a third one (and most important).
Issue no 3: An emergency action plan.
All three issues were poorly addressed by euro-goverments and institutions. And this defective response to certain crises is due the defective, non-functioning Maactricht treaty.
There is a certain fiscal coordination deficit in euro-zone, and Germany, being a leading economy, should start coping with it and take some initiative, together with France, to reform the euro-structure.
@ Automatically Generated
I don't think Labros_S is far off on his evaluation. Its not about having a nerve rather enumerating the 2 viable solutions/scenarios.
1. Give Greece a low rate bailout now, restructure the economy and political system, wait 3 years and see if it worked
2. Let Greece default now.
There is no in-between solution. It the bailout leads to even higher debt ratios that are impossible to payout in 3 years then its better to let Greece default now. If EU chooses the bail-out route then they need to make it a viable one.
If the Greek unions don't want the deal, then don't give Greece the money. It's called letting them stew in their own juices.
Greece: a beautiful country, spoiled by the Greeks.
I think my prediction of Angela Markel are coming to fruition as I had written a comment yesterday over an article "on the edge of the abyss".
She has not only lost credibility among her friends and foes by not adopting a rescue plan for Greece of which could have halted the spread of financial default in the Euro zone.
Labros_S, you got some nerve. Instead of saying THANK YOU you knock your saviors. The market gave you loans because they didn't know you lied about the deficits, and thought Germany etc will back you up.
Try getting loans now from the market if 5% is too high. EU will not see this money paid back, Greece will default--again.
So what if now the Greeks take the money and do none of the reforms? The IMF and the EU can impose all sorts of harsh conditions, big deal. The Greeks have ignored the rules and lied in the past. What is to say they won't do it again?
Just let Greece default...
Greece should long know that there's no free lunch; if their heavy borrowing in the past was unwisely spent, it will have to be repaid with a lot of social suffering today. A point not to be missed by politicians in other debtor countries, as well.
When are the current gaggle of governments going to learn that raising taxes just a small amount, spread evenly over the population, is not a horrible thing and will actually allow them to live within their means and reduce their debt. Of course, we would have to guard against politicians who would simply continue to try to spend more than the government takes in, but a rational political party should be able to do this. This concept, exactly what we tell families and individuals to do when they are too deeply in debt, should be able to be shown to the electorate to be a rational policy for government.
What do we have to do? Form a new political party? Lets call it the Rationalist Party, or, perhaps, the Sane Party! How about it folks. Every nation should insist on having at least one sane political party; we may even be able to find a few sane politicians!
It should be stressed in all those analyses that this "bailout" is quite unique: it is actually made of high-interest loans (5% for 3-year loans !). In other words, worse terms than what Greece would get from the markets only a couple of months ago ! I have never seen such terms in a "bailout", so perhaps another description (like "emergency loans") might be more appropriate.
If everything works out, Germany and other Euro-nations will have made a huge net profit from those loans (with Athens eventually not only paying back, but sending a few extra billions of Euros to these countries). So, there exists a good scenario, where theoretically everybody could be happy !

Visiting Chion-in Temple was purely a happy accident for me. I was on my way back to my hotel and got lost on the bus, and I'd just so happened to get off at the stop leading up to Chion-in Temple. At first I didn't think to go up the road, but from afar I saw a glimpse of a temple, so decided to check it out, the rest they say is history.
