Jean-Robert Bellande has never slid under the radar. Since his first TV appearance, he has commanded attention, and stolen the spotlight at the poker table. When we first heard of Jean-Robert's appearance on "Survivor," honestly, we knew nobody in the poker world would be a better selection. We caught up with Bobby at the Bellagio after he got back from the show.
Bluff: Give us a little background. What was your childhood like?
Bellande: I was born in New York and, when I was around the age of 5, my father got a contract to do some government work in Iran. My mom was very excited about going to Iran and dancing with the Shah [laughs]. Somehow, last minute, the Iran job didn't work out and my father was reposted in Taiwan. So I went out there and my parents loved the environment for us to grow up in. There was a youth group there and my parents ended up running the group, which was great for my brothers and me. We had personal private tennis lessons as kids; we got to play soccer, baseball. The whole youth community was very tight-knit. So as a kid, I was always really competitive and really athletic. I was a pretty strong soccer player, but not too into baseball. I spent most of my childhood there in Taiwan. I came back to the States to go to university at a small state school in California, where I graduated with a marketing degree.
While I was in school, I read an article in GQ Magazine about a club in L.A. called The Roxbury. I found it so fascinating. I think Madonna at the time was dating one of the owners, and for some reason it was just the coolest thing to me. Six months later, on my 21st birthday, I finally ended up getting a chance to go. I waited outside for about an hour to get in, and when I finally did I was the happiest kid in the world. There was a singer, Al B Sure, who was popular then, and we walked in at the same time; somehow we became quick acquaintances and he walked me into the VIP -- that was my first taste of the night life. Within a few weeks I was helping out some of the club's promoters and working at the club. I started doing one night a week helping out the promoters. I was excited about just being there, making a few hundred dollars a week, but at the same time I was able to get all my friends in, hang out at the hottest club, and have fun.
I guess some of the big promoters out there saw that I had a talent as a young kid to make whatever types of people feel comfortable. Whether it was celebrities or beautiful women, people wanted to either hang out with me or would give me their number so I could call and invite them to different events. I was happy going out six nights a week, and hanging out at The Roxbury, which at the time was the hottest club in the town.
Bluff: So tell us how you first found your way to a poker table.
Bellande: Well, I first got into action games in college. I would typically gamble on pool, foosball, your standard bar games for a bit of money through college. It was just to make the game interesting. When I got out of university, I frequented a place called Hollywood Billiards and Athletic Club in L.A. I was never a great pool player, but I was always a good negotiator. So I would always make a game that was workable. My first year playing pool, I was actually a losing player. It wasn't until the second year that I began making money playing pool.
Bluff: Explain to us how you could be not a great player, yet a winning player.
Bellande: Well, you can see within three balls or so whether someone can actually play pool, and how sharp they are. The big difference between pool and poker is that the good pool player is going to win most of the time. Even with a spot, the better pool player will usually win. In poker, a bad player can get lucky. The numbers may be in the better player's favor, but the good player can lose a good amount of time. I just love the action. I love playing pool. I was doing pretty well promoting clubs, I was 22 years old, and I was making $4,000 a week cash, which at the time was a huge deal for a kid like me. I guess now it's not as big of a deal, because there are tons of online poker kids making that kind of money. I was like the celebrity of all my friends at the time. I was also making $20,000 to $40,000 on the side, playing pool.
One day, about nine years ago, I was playing pool at a place called Hard Times. It's a nostalgic place for pool, where the big action games take place. I won about $5,000 one night, which is pretty big in the pool world, and I drove past the Bicycle Casino and I saw a sign for California Blackjack. Being the action junkie that I was, I couldn't help myself. I walked in and proceeded to win about $25,000, which was kind of odd, since you are beating other players out of the money, not the house. On my way out I noticed the poker room. The floor man, seeing I had no clue what I was doing, sat me down with a rack of $300, at a $6/$12 limit hold 'em game. I blew through the money in about 25 minutes and was bored to tears. I had just won $25,000; please put me in the real game. So, they went ahead and put me in the $60/$120 game, where the players quickly realized that I was clueless. They decided to bump the game to $80/$160, and I wound up losing $13,000. All the while, I felt I was getting the gist of it, but I really had no chance. If it was no-limit hold 'em, I might have had a shot, but we were playing a mixed-game format. Even though I lost, I had gotten that taste, and I felt the money was a well-worthwhile investment. I probably lost about $200,000 playing poker my first year.
Bluff: Wow, that's an expensive lesson. Was that hard to deal with at the time, losing all that money?
Bellande: Well, I loved playing. Because I was doing so well in the club business, I didn't realize I was losing as much as I did playing poker. All my money was going right to poker, and as well I was doing, I was putting myself in debt playing cards. I didn't start breaking even in cards until at least my second and third year. I probably should have gone through the levels, but I couldn't face playing lower than $40/$80.
Bluff: Was this before the boom, meaning the competition was pretty steep at the time?
Bellande: There were not many bad players in the game at all. It was before poker got popular, and it was playing mixed games, which was only guys who were trying to make a living playing poker. I didn't get to start out the way I should have. I wish it was no-limit hold 'em I was playing at the time, because I think I wouldn't have lost as much money learning the game.
Bluff: When did you start playing no-limit hold 'em?
Bellande: I started playing no-limit hold 'em about two years after I started playing poker. I'll tell you what happened. I was playing $60/$120 heads-up with someone, and I was losing my ass. I was down about $6,000. He got called away for a while, and the only other game in the high-limit section was $400/$800 mixed game. They were on the Omaha high/low section, which was my specialty at the time. I figured I would take a stab at it. It was, of course, way over my bankroll, but I had to take a shot. I ended up winning about $13,000 in the high/low round. I didn't want to be a jerk and get up and leave, so I stuck around and I ended up winning about $50,000 in that session.
Funny thing is another gentleman and I were considered the live ones in the game, and we ended up being the big winners that day. The lineup was pretty nuts, too: Barry Greenstein, Allen Cunningham, Yosh Nakano, and some other big grinders. I knew they were good players, but I figured my Omaha game wasn't behind by much to anybody. But $50,000, that was a huge score for me. The biggest of my career at the time. I took half of the money and blew it in Vegas; and the other half and played Jeff Lisandro in Omaha high/low, and he crushed me. I knew he beat me because he outplayed me. We became good friends through that, and he eventually invited me to Prague to run one of his poker rooms, which is where I first picked up no-limit hold 'em.
I had been going through a tough time, so I went to Prague for a month. My night club was at the end of its run, my girlfriend and I broke up, and my father passed away from cancer all around the same time. So the Prague invite was perfect timing. That was about four years ago. I went for one month, and I stayed for about six to seven months. I was running the cardroom; I was winning at the games. We basically had the only game in town.
Bluff: Was Jeffrey improving your game while this was going on?
Bellande: Absolutely. I was asking him questions all the time. That's something that I was always good at, asking questions. Anything I see, I will ask someone about it. Even today, I will watch Joe Cassidy play heads-up limit hold 'em online, and will see him do something, and I will ask him all sorts of questions. I am always asking questions, and I think that has been a major help. Jeff would get frustrated even with all the questions. I think he thought I might be getting too good too fast.
In Prague, no-limit hold 'em was the only game in town, so I was really able to hone my skills in that game there. I felt I was getting very good at it. I would play in the casino and then I would go home and play three $200 sit-n-gos on Party Poker until I would make $1,000. That was going great, and I went 30 straight days making $1,000 playing those sit-n-gos. Those sit-n-gos improved my tournament game more than any other learning tool I ever had access to. They allow you to learn every aspect of the game, every dynamic.
Bluff: When you got back to the States, did you start playing tournaments? How did that work out?
Bellande: Well my first memorable tournament was not a $10,000, it was one of the prelim events -- I think it was a $2,500 buy-in. It was right before the Grinder got really hot. I made the final table and it was Gioi Loung, Grinder, and me. A huge hand happened that I think was pretty sick. Gioi raised with two kings, a short stack moved in with two jacks, guy after him called with two kings, and Grinder moved all-in with aces. It was an absolute monster hand. I was destroying the table at the time, and it was very unfortunate for me that Grinder won that pot and so many chips. I lost my hold, and I think that was the first tourney that Grinder won. He played great, and that was a sick hand.
Bluff: Your first TV final table was pretty interesting. Tell us a bit about it.
Bellande: I really felt that this was my tournament. I had A-5 on a J-5-5 board, and I check-raised a guy all-in, and he called all in with K-J. The turn and river came K-J, and it made me realize that my talk at the table made people want to beat me so badly that they would get it in with junk.
Bluff: Have you always been a talker at the table?
Bellande: I have always been a talker. I started in Prague, because my confidence level just got so high. I felt like the best player. I came to the States, and I felt just as confident. And I found it gave me a huge edge talking at the table. It makes people want to beat me. It's not that they hate me; they just want to beat me. Afterwards they want to grab a beer with me.
Anyways, that hand with the A-5 got me severely short-stacked. I forced myself to focus and buckle down there. I ended up at the final table, but I remember it was interesting when we were down to 10 or 11 people. Phil Ivey had about 3.5 times the big blind, and he moved in from the button or the cut-off. I had a ton of chips and picked up A-Q suited, and I folded it face up. We were one away from the final table. Everyone though I had lost my mind. It was not that I didn't want to double up Phil Ivey. It was that I wanted Phil Ivey at my final table. I knew if I got to a TV final table of Phil Ivey, Jennifer Harmon, Tony Ma, Gabe Thaler, that this would be one of the greatest final tables. I thought it was a negative EV for me, losing Phil Ivey at the table. Most folks still thought I was crazy, keeping Phil there. But it was a marketing thing. I am one of the guys who gets a lot of press because of my act at the table. I'm like an Anna Kournikova: I have done pretty well, but not incredible. I have never won a major nor been at that many TV tables. I love ESPN for pegging me as the villain at my first TV table. It made me a poker personality. Even though I didn't win, I think people still look at it as my table. That's probably the reason the folks from "Survivor" found me.
Bluff: Did you follow "Survivor" at all? Were you a fan at all of the show?
Bellande: No, not at all. I maybe watched six or seven episodes of the first season.
Bluff: So they approached you?
Bellande: Someone who I used to work with in the club business is now on the casting team of "Survivor." She came to me and thought I would be brilliant. She had actually approached a few folks who have gone on to win either "Survivor" or "Amazing Race." When she first approached me, I thought, "No way! I don't want to starve myself and go through all that." I had already had TV exposure from poker, so that wasn't a factor. The more I thought about it, it seemed like it made a lot of sense. I decided my EV was way higher than 1 in 16 at a million dollars. This could increase my popularity in the poker world and increase the perception of my character. Every show needs that charming a------. I wanted to be the bad guy who was also fun and easy to like.
Bluff: We all remember the rumor of you being on the show, and that a thread on 2+2 potentially could have cost you a spot on the show. Is this true?
Bellande: They don't like any information being leaked. It creates an edge for the competition, because they can do research on you.
Bluff: I hear there are some pretty wild folks on the show with you.
Bellande: This cast is a particularly good cast. We have a grave digger in there, a lunch lady, a WWE wrestler, a chicken farmer. It's an interesting cast.
Bluff: How long before you headed out did you know you had made it?
Bellande: I thought it was a no-brainer for them to pick me. It's interesting -- the process. They get you excited about it, but you never know for sure whether you are on it. They keep calling to let you know you made another cut, and leave you hanging. They only let you know at the last minute. The truth is, when the rumors were out there, I didn't even know for sure if I was going on the show. Once you get the call, you have about a week to prepare. They ask all the finalists to prepare in case, so I was getting ready while I was waiting.
Bluff: Did you start putting together a strategy and do some research on the show?
Bellande: Well, they give you tapes and videos to study so you can begin to prepare. I will say that a lot of people going on the show should study up as much as possible, and it's definitely worth it. I love my strategy. Basically, my thought before going in was to be the biggest jerk possible without being voted off. I wanted to barely squeak by in the beginning and then as the show progressed I wanted to start to grow on people. I have had relationships like that in life, where you don't hit it off in the beginning, but you learn to grow on each other, and that's what my plan was getting into the show. I wanted to piss everyone off, but not get into jeopardy by winning challenges, and doing last-minute damage control. As time progressed, I was hoping others would see me so much as the bad guy. So that was it, my strategy going into the show.
Bluff: Obviously, the game of poker has a very strong psychological factor. Did your poker skills help you on "Survivor"?
Bellande: Absolutely! I am a firm believer that the skills you learn in poker -- the social dynamics, the reading people, the vibes -- are skills you can use in everyday life. In the promotion business, you have to know people and get along with people and get reads on people. That's probably why I feel poker is successful for me; it's not so much the technical tells and such, like the neck bobbing, or eyes dilating. I usually go with the vibes I get. What does my gut say? Is this person full of it or telling the truth? And I feel like I am right most of the time. I have made some crazy moves in my days. I laid down aces-full in a tournament against Paul Wasicka the first time I ever played with him, and you know what? I was right. I am capable of making the huge laydowns and I am capable of making the big calls. I once called a reraised pot preflop against a player. It went, raise, reraise, re-reraise, and I called this player with jack high in a cash came, because I had such a gut feeling the guy was bluffing. These may sound impressive, but to a good player who knows the situation and trusts his reads, these are musts.
Back to "Survivor" though, sometimes your antenna would go off. So and so is not telling me the truth or isn't looking me in the eye. Those are things that poker helped me with a lot.
Bluff: Was it harder than you thought?
Bellande: It was way harder than I thought. I really believed that a lot of it was exaggerated; I thought maybe they had outhouses or some sort of help. No, not at all. You go out in the woods, and you dig a hole, and you use a leaf. Then you go down to the lake and wash up; well, at least I would. I can't stand the idea of not being clean. I liked being in the water all the time. That was my place of refuge.
Bluff: Any fun gambling, or action on the side when you were on the show?
Bellande: Well, not on the show, but about two months before the show, Mike Matusow bet me like $10,000 that I couldn't do 20 push-ups. I thought nothing of it and thought it would be a cakewalk. I ended up trying to do military style pushups to show him up. I got to the last push-up and collapsed right there in the middle of the Commerce Casino. Everyone thought it was hysterical, and I told that story on the set. Folks thought I made it up, but it was 100 percent true.
Bluff: Now that you are back here in Vegas, are there things you can take from the show that will help your poker game?
Bellande: When you are out on the set, patience is a big factor. Our job was to make shelter and feed ourselves. Sure there are challenges once in a while, but it can get pretty boring. The show packs about three days or so into that one hour. You have to be patient on the show. There were nights when I couldn't wait for the night to be over, when I just wanted the whole thing to be done with. I think my patience level was stretched to a whole new level. I think it was harder for me than most, because it was happening during the World Series of Poker. I wanted to know how my buddies were doing; I wanted to know just any bit of news. That was frustrating. Sometimes the conditions were so brutal, you think to yourself, can I really do this for 39 days? No, I wanted to go back and play in the main event. But that was not an option by the way. There was no leaving unless you get voted off. And even then, if you get voted off, you don't leave until it's over. They have a little side camp that you stay in before the show starts, and if you get voted off, you don't see what's going on in the show, but you are still there.
Bluff: We talked a bit earlier about your presence at the table, you being known as a villain. How about the poker forums? Do you let any of that stuff bug you? I have often read about rumors about you being broke.
Bellande: Well I'm going to say that it doesn't bother me. People talking about my performance, it doesn't bother me, but it does kick me in the ass. Here I am thinking, when I was 22-23 I was making four grand a week; I bought a Mercedes; I owned a night club at 26. Now I'm 37 years old, and there are times when I am broke. There is no excuse for this. I know what the problem is: I am a talented poker player, but I consistently play too high for my bankroll. However, one thing I am really good at -- and this is really important -- I convinced myself that I am a compulsive gambler, that poker is gambling with an edge. I consider myself at least a 4-6 percent advantage, sometimes more, sometimes less. Therefore, poker is a good proposition for me.
The Bellagio, for instance, gambles every day, except they always have an edge and they will win at the end of the year. I don't sports bet, I don't play pit games, I know that I have no edge in those games. Gambling is only good if you have an edge. For years I didn't even touch a table, since I knew that, like an alcoholic, the smallest bit would get me going again. Now, for entertainment I will gamble once in a while for fun, but nothing of any consequence. Now my biggest weakness is that I play too high for my bankroll. I lost $280,000 of my own money at the end of December, playing heads-up against a player, who I was probably about a 3-2 or higher favorite against and I lost all my money. I probably should have put the brakes on after I lost like half of it, but I couldn't. My money management is really, really poor. Poker is an industry where you see a lot of people who are not nearly as talented, but are really successful players because they have great money management skills. They have discipline. They play games where they are comfortable, and they make their money. I try to do that, I play smaller games and grind my way back, but I'll run it up and take a shot again and lose it all. Now, I think the ideal spot for me is to get involved with something where I have a steady income, and gain some financial security.
The interesting thing about my being broke is that it doesn't really matter for me. My lifestyle doesn't change. I still take the same trips. I was at the VMAs last night. That's always going to be me. Last week I flew in my buddy's private jet. I am always going to be living this lifestyle, and I love it. But enough's enough. There really is no excuse for me to ever be broke.
I have a book coming out at some point, called "Broke and Living Like a Millionaire," which really goes into detail about some of this stuff. I have been very fortunate, even with being broke. One of my concerns is kids playing poker and going broke and letting it all ride. I advise any kids who ask me about playing poker professionally to get their education first; get a degree, have a backup plan. Being broke is not fun. Most people are not as lucky and blessed to get bailed out like me. There are plenty of big-name players who are broke and people don't hear those stories. Young guys don't hear about how hard this business is. There are guys playing as high as the $4k/8k game who are broke, guys who have won millions in tournaments, but they aren't as vocal about it. I keep it real; I don't mind my business out in the open. I just don't want others to follow in my footsteps like that.
So yes, my next task, and it's a big one, is to improve my bankroll management.

Choosing the Right Law School / Re: Death Battle!! UF vs. UM« on: April 29, 2007, 11:01:40 PM »
This thread makes me cringe.
Play nice.
Play nice.
This section allows you to view all posts made by this member. Note that you can only see posts made in areas you currently have access to.
Loved it. glad someone else thought of lsd as soon as they saw it lol!
My opinion is that it's a sad truth about hidden agendas in this administration.
My questions is, does anyone actually go to Regent here on LSD?
I think it's against their student conduct code to fraternize with us heathens or anyone who might enlighten them in any way, shape, or form.
Ouch... what about UF vs. Florida Costal?
I wanna play!!!!! This is why I would choose UM if money weren't a factor:
1. Minutes away from one of the most famous, most fun, most beautiful (reference to the clear blue water) beaches in the world. Gainesville has, well, UF and farmland. Studying on the beach anyone?
2. Opportunities abound in Miami (what firms, law or otherwise would choose to be located in G-ville?)
3. UM 1L section sizes are smaller (50-60 vs UF's 100)
4. UM appears to have a tighter alum network than UF
5. In the interest of things to do and ways to become involved in the community, UM blows UF away. In Miami, there are all kinds of cultural happenings and in UF, well, maybe there are several keg parties to choose from on any given night...
6. G-Ville gets rather cold by Florida standards
7. UM has the Keys and Tampa nearby while UF has, uh Alabama?
8. In my opinion, some UF students are rather fanatical about being a Gator (Im trying to put this politely) and that kind of rubs me the wrong way (read between the lines here if you like)
9. There are 2 kinds of people in Gainesville, students and elderly, retired people; where would YOU rather spend the next 3 years?
Culture tip for those who are moving to Miami for the first time: it is customary to kiss somebody of the opposite sex on the cheek hello, even if you have never met them and even in professional settings. I know a lot of people get wierded it out by this at first, but that's how it works in Miami. To some, not kissing hello is interpreted as being rude (as in "she doesn't look like she's nice", or "we wouldn't make good friends"). You'll get used to it. When I moved away from Miami when I was in high school, it was very difficult to adjust to not doing it!
That's not going to work with me. I have a "comfort zone" and I don't want people getting all up in it. I think that may be the latin influence. If they think I'm rude then I'll just let them think that. I really don't want herpes on my cheek
That's what everyone says when they first move to Miami. After a year in Miami, you won't even give it a second thought. It's an essential part of being a Miamian.
Is there really NO ONE joining me at American?

All those of you out there who like to use their iPads and iPhones as recording devices will doubtless welcome this heads-up from Gizmodo about the launch of the first full-sized microphone for the iPad and iPhone. There are of course plenty of mini-microphones around for iPads and iPhones, but IK Multimedia's iRig Mic would seem to be the first full-sized one.
According to IK Multimedia, the iRig Mic is designed for the singer, vocalist and songwriter on the move, but also for people who want to record speeches, or any other sound source that you can think of, in the field. The mic features a highly unidirectional condenser-electret microphone capsule for quality recording both up close and at a distance. It can be used either as a hand-held device, or can be mounted on any mic stand.
The iRig Mic comes packaged with VocaLive, IK's new real-time effects processor suite for singers and vocalists, and AmpliTube for guitar players and songwriters, and will also work with many other vocal and audio processing apps.
You can preorder the iRig Mic now for $59.99/€49.99 from IK Multimedia's website (see link below).

For many folks around the country, summer's the time for moving into a new home or renovating the space they already have. Ingrid Hoffmann, host of "Delicioso," a TV show on Galavision/Univision and contributor of Buenhogar, the Spanish edition of Good Housekeeping magazine, was invited on "Today" to share her insights into how you can throw a painting party, even when everything you own is still packed away in boxes. The most important part of any party is the food — and drinks. Here are some of Hoffmann's recipes:
- 1 large whole chicken, cut in pieces
- 3 tablespoons homemade adobo (See recipe below.)
- 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 onion, roughly chopped; plus 1/2 onion, sliced
- 1 tablespoon chopped garlic
- 1/2 cup chopped cilantro
- 1 cup beer
- 1 cup chicken broth plus more for rice, about 5 cups
- 3 cups white rice
- 2 cups mixed frozen peas and carrots
- 2 cups frozen, cut green beans
- 1/2 cup of ketchup
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup seeded and thinly sliced red bell pepper
- 1 cup seeded and thinly sliced green bell pepper
- 1 cup pimento stuffed olives
Baking Directions:
In a large saucepan combine the chicken pieces, adobo seasoning, Worcestershire sauce, chopped onion, garlic, cilantro, beer and one cup chicken broth. Place over medium heat and bring to a boil. Lower the heat, cover and simmer for 30 to 35 minutes or until the chicken is tender and fully cooked. Remove all the chicken and onion pieces from the liquid and set aside. Measure the remaining broth and add more chicken broth to make 6 cups of liquid. Return it to the saucepan along with the rice, frozen peas and carrots, the cut green beans, ketchup and salt. Stir well and bring to a boil. Let the liquid evaporate to just below the level of the rice then lower the heat to very low, cover and leave for 25 minutes. In a skillet melt the butter and cook the remaining onion, red pepper and green pepper over medium heat until tender, about 8 minutes. Roughly shred the cooled chicken and add to the vegetable mixture. When the rice is cooked through fluff with a fork and add the chicken pieces, vegetable mixture and olives. Stir to combine and serve.
- 1 tablespoon lemon pepper seasoning
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon onion powder or flakes
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- 1 tablespoon parsley flakes
- 1 tablespoon achiote powder
- 1/2 tablespoon ground cumin
Baking Directions:
Combine the spices in a small glass jar with an airtight lid and shake to blend. Store in a cool, dry place for up to 2 weeks.
- 6 cups pre-washed arugula
- 2 ripe avocados, halved, pitted, peeled and sliced
- 1 fennel bulb
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1/2 cup whole fresh cilantro leaves
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or more to taste
- Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Baking Directions:
Wash and dry the arugula leaves and remove any long stems. Set aside.Rub the avocado slices with lemon juice and place in a salad bowl.Remove and discard the outer layer of the fennel bulb and wash thoroughly. Slice the fennel as thinly as possible using a mandoline or a very sharp knife. Combine with the avocado slices and gently toss with 1 tablespoon of the lemon juice to prevent it from discoloring. When ready to serve, add the cilantro and arugula leaves and dress with enough olive oil to lightly coat all the ingredients, about 2 tablespoons. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve.
- 2 cups ice
- 1 cup frozen raspberries
- 1/4 cup mineral water
- 2 tablespoons frozen lemonade concentrate
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 3 ounces tequila
- Salt
Baking Directions:
Moisten edge of martini glasses with lemon juice and then dip them into the salt. Place the ice, raspberries, water, frozen lemonade, lemon juice and tequila together in a blender and blend throroughly. Serve in the prepared glasses.

Hope someone can explain what's happened to my WordPress.
Since I did the automatic update to v3.5, the visual/HTML editor is disabled for new posts and editing old ones.
Tried the suggestions - deactivated plugins and reactivated, reinstalled WP.
I'm not running any of the plugins which seemed to be the trouble for others as reported on the forums.
Really crazy thing is WordPress seems to work fine on my iPhone, just not on my Mac.
I'm running OS X 10.6.8, and Safari v5.1.7.
Cleared cache, reset Safari - still not working.
Any suggestions, folks?

The concept-car necessities of leather-lined clamshells for seats, intricate headlights derived from Korean masks and an "advanced user interface" make their appearances, certain to be bland-ified for production. But this design is the template for the rest of SsangYong's coming lineup, so the wraparound glass, clean bodysides and wheels spread-eagled at the corners might have a fighting chance. Official press release details (which sadly lack any information on powertrain) are after the jump.
▪ Ssangyong debuts new concept car XIV-1 that features advanced user
interface and embodies the company's unique design philosophy
▪ Automaker's main brands Korando C and Rexton, and the SUT-1 concept car
and gasoline-powered Korando C also being exhibited in Germany
▪ Ssangyong to solidify its presence as a global SUV maker through
the auto show
Ssangyong Motor(President & CEO Yoo-Il Lee; www.smotor.com), part of the US$12.5 billion Mahindra Group, recently unveiled its premium CUV concept car XIV-1, which the company is developing as a strategic model for the global market, at the 64th Frankfurt International Motor Show in Messe, Frankfurt, Germany.
The XIV-1 is a concept car that represents Ssangyong's design capabilities for premium crossover utility vehicles. Its renderings were released in August. The XIV-1, which stands for "eXciting user Interface Vehicle-1," is equipped with an advanced user interface that enables drivers to use mobile devices such as smart phones to check information on and control the car, realizing a genuine Mobile Auto System without limits on time and place.
The XIV-1 boasts a full-length glass roof separate from pillars, and its flank design, inspired by the design lines of a yacht, highlights agility, speed and driving pleasure. Its front design incorporates the robust image of the Korando and embodies Ssangyong's design philosophy, "Robust Aesthetic Realization."
The headlights, resembling the humorous smile of Korean traditional masks, are made with LED bulbs and the rear lights have three bars, highlighting simplicity and ensuring clarity of the driver's intention. To enhance driver convenience, the XIV-1 uses an open tailgate with an upper part that can be pushed up, and a lower part that can be pushed down.
Its instrument panel is simple and easy to manipulate, possessing a bilateral symmetry that gives the driver a strong sense of stability. The center fascia is made of aluminum to add visual and tactile comfort and a sense of luxury. Pillarless doors make the car look more spacious and mood lighting that covers the whole interior of the car creates a unique interior atmosphere.
To satisfy diverse customer needs in the global market, Ssangyong Motor has held concept and design clinics, reflecting ideas generated from these clinics in vehicle design and development.
Building on the XIV-1, Ssangyong will develop an extensive product lineup, including the new concept Range Extended EV, and build up the company's distinctive design capabilities through development of new concepts and research on the future-oriented infotainment system.
Ssangyong has a 750 square meter booth at the 2011 Frankfurt International Motor Show, which is being held from Sept. 13 to 25 in Germany. Along with the XIV-1 Concept, seven mass-produced brands including the Korando C and Rexton will be exhibited throughout the duration of the show. The SUT-1 Concept, which received favorable responses at the Geneva Motor Show in March, is also being displayed at the German motor show with its form much closer to the mass-produced model, as is the gasoline-powered Korando C, which is drawing much attention from the media and members of the global car industry.
Yoo-Il Lee, president and CEO of Ssangyong Motor, said, "The XIV-1 is the culmination of Ssangyong's product development capabilities and a strategic model for the global market that embodies our experimental and progressive design sprit," adding, "The Frankfurt International Motor Show serves as an opportunity for Ssangyong, which seeks to become a global SUV maker, to further solidify its global profile."

i carry OC and CC with my M&P40 in a serpa it has active retention, when i carry my keltec OC(pretty much never) or CC i use the Belt clip
This is a discussion on Do you change holsters to accomodate OC vs CC? within the Open Carry Issues & Discussions forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; I've been carrying a gun practically 24/7 for nearly 20 years as a LEO. For the past 2/3rds of my career, my job has generally ...
I've been carrying a gun practically 24/7 for nearly 20 years as a LEO. For the past 2/3rds of my career, my job has generally required concealed carry as opposed to open carry (duty belt). In my current job, I do sometimes wear what is commonly referred to as a "soft uniform", which is 5.11 style pants and a polo shirt with my agency badge/logo on it. When I wear that, I open carry without a concealment garment. I am also sometimes required to wear a "tactical uniform", which consists of BDU's and a tactical belt.
Normally, when I carry concealed (on or off duty), I carry in an open top owb scabbard of one sort or another. However, when I wear a "soft uniform" and open carry, I wear a holster with a retention device (thumb release). If I'm wearing a "duty belt", the holster also has a retention device (rotating hood). As a LEO, from the day you start training, "weapon retention" is drilled into your brain. Twice, back when I was a patrol officer, I had suspects try to disarm me by pulling my pistol from the holster. Not just half-hearted tugs, but serious, determined attempts to take my weapon from the holster during a fight. Obviously, an exposed weapon is a more tempting target in a fight (that statement is not an indictment of open carry...simply a tactical observation). If I'm grappling with you and I can see your weapon, I'm much more likely to try and take it. Again, please let me make this clear: I do not say that to discourage OC in any way. If it is legal, I support your right to do it 100%!
Which leads me to my question: Do you use a different hoslter when you open carry as opposed to when you carry concealed? If so, what is the primary difference? Is it for decorative or safety reasons?

First time I open carried, I used my usual IWB holster but with my shirt tucked in behind it and Glock exposed. Had to be in Kansas on visit to do that. If I lived in a state where OC was allowed, and I chose to do so most of the time, I'd more than likely be going with my OWB holsters in my usual winter mode for my area.Which leads me to my question: Do you use a different hoslter when you open carry as opposed to when you carry concealed? If so, what is the primary difference? Is it for decorative or safety reasons?
Yes, I do. I carry OWB in both cases, but when I am carrying concealed I will carry in an open top pancake style OWB holster. When I am carrying open I will use a Serpa holster from Blackhawk.
I do this for security reasons, it gives me a little extra "peace of mind" knowing that, if somebody does try to take it away, at least I am not making it easy for them.
Well I want to get one of those Pure Kustom holsters which are IWB and OWB, and they look very professional.
but I do like the Raven Concealment holsters because they hug your body tight
I find the Black Ops pro IWB with my G19 in it, is more comfortable than the MTAC with the G26.
I use it inside and outside.
Last edited by ICIMP; July 26th, 2009 at 09:54 AM. Reason: To finish my thought
CC--IWB Crossbreed Supertuck.
OC--OWB Blackhawk Serpa
For OC, I like the extra retention on the Serpa.
God is love (1 John 4:8)
No matter if I am carrying concealed or openly, I use the same holster, my Blackhawk SERAP.
I believe in keeping it simple, same holster, same movements to release the gun, no having to remember which holster I have on if everything goes bad.

I typically don't open carry, even though New Mexico law allows it. As you stated, a visible weapon makes a tempting target. For concealed carry I use either a Milt Sparks VM-II for my Kimber .38 Super or a HBE Com III for my S&W 3913.
"First gallant South Carolina nobly made the stand."
Edge of Darkness
I have leather OWB holsters for open carry. Neither has retention (speed scabbard type) but I may change to a retention type holster in the future. For concealed carry, I sometimes use the same holster with a shirt or jacket over it, especially when my diet isn't working and there isn't room in the pants for IWB. If I plan to CC and can't have the shirt hanging out, I'll pocket carry or use a Supertuck.
The main reason for retention (disarming during struggle) is far more likely to happen to a cop than an OC'ing civilian because we won't be attempting to subdue and handcuff a bad guy.
An enemy of liberty is no friend of mine. I do not owe respect to anyone who would enslave me by government force, nor is it wise for such a person to expect it. -- Isaiah Amberay
To this question I have to say yes & no.
When I'm in uniform traveling to & from work I normally carry my G26 in an Uncle Mike's Kydex holster. This holster has great retention and fits my duty belt perfectly.
When I'm off duty I do occasionally OC with my G26 in a (OWB) Bianchi Snaplok #84. This holster has great retention as well.
I normally carry my G26 in either my Bianchi Snaplok #84 (OWB) or my DiSantis Cozy Partner (IWB). Both these holsters are very comfortable to wear. They hold my handgun snugly against my body.

"Gun control is being able to hit your target."
Glock 26
I use the same holster whether OC or CC, Tucker Cover Up IWB. Since 99% of my OC involves restaurants, just do a VA tuck and carry on with my business.
Rock Island .45 with a 3 1/2" barrel and a supertuck IWB for CC. If I decide to OC in a state where legal then I still use the same holster. Although, IL has yet to let their subjects (err I mean citizens) CC...there will be a CC for IL one day.
Open carry in a Serpa at 1:30 position.
Concealed carry in a crossbreed Qwik clip also at 1:30 position.
Both are set up for cross draw. Pistol is a XD40. Two spare mags in a UM double carrier at 5:30 position. Yes, I'm a lefty.
Like many folks that OC I too use a Blackhawk Serpa when open carrying. When I carry concealed I either use my DeSantis Speed Scabbard or Galco shoulder holster. Sometimes during the colder months I will use my Serpa for concealed carry as well. I did buy a Blackhawk LE Level II Serpa holster and attached it to an Uncle Mike's duty belt and will be using it as my winter OC setup so I can open carry with a jacket. I should look into getting a Level III holster though.

Everyone loves checking in on the results of Japanese tournaments because they simply do not make any sense. Even for Japanese tournaments, Umebura 24 had some of the craziest results yet. Many people try to theorize that Japanese rulesets lead to an overabundance of variance but, the truth is, Japan's metagame gives us a preview of what Smash 4 in the 1.1.6 era will look like around the world in the near future. Once the other regions have as high of an average player skill level as in Japan it will become clear that in 1.1.6, everyone is a threat.

Undoubtedly the best Wario in México, Edgar "Waymas" Lizcano is a dedicated fighting game player that has supported the competitive Smash scene since it first appeared in his country. Over the years, he's earned himself a reputation as an amazing defensive player, climbing all the way to 4th place in the Mexican Power Rankings with consistently high placements. And as the scene continues to grow, with competition getting continuously harder, it doesn't seem like he's planning on slowing down anytime soon.
