Live Tournament Updates
Second Time's the Charm for Tommy Vedes
Level 31: 60,000-120,000, 20,000 ante
Let's be honest. The deck was not stacked in Tommy Vedes favor at this year's Seminole Hard Rock Showdown final table. Sure, he had experience on his side as the only WPT Champions Club member at the final table, but experience can only make up for so much. Vedes started the day with half as many chips as everyone else. He was fighting against overwhelming odds, as only two players have ever started sixth in chips to pick up the title. He was aso aiming to do something only Scotty Nguyen had done before him: final table the same WPT event back to back years and win it the second time around.
Even with all that going against him though, Vedes still fought and, up to the very last night, it seemed as though the deck was not stacked in his favor, but he still found a way to prevail and pick up his second WPT title and earn redemption after a sixth place finish in this tournament one year ago.
Like we said, Vedes began the final table as the short stack, while Joe Serock began the action with an overwhelming lead and a stack twice the size of any of his other opponents. Vedes picked up chips out the gate though, winning a coinflip against Kyle Bowker to double early and leave Bowker running on fumes. Even though he managed to triple up, then double up, Bowker could not make up the ground he lost and he exited in sixth place after he ran QJ into Serock's AJ.
Just four hands later, Sharon Levin would join Bowker on the rail. After losing some pots, Levin pushed with A3 and Vedes looked him up with pocket sixes. The pair held and the Seminole Lucky Hearts fourth place finisher had to settle for a fifth place showing at his second WPT final table.
With Levin's elimination, Serock could rest a little easier knowing that he officially claimed the lead in the WPT Player of the Year race. Serock's lead in the race got bigger after Craig Bergeron exited in fourth place when he open shoved pocket sixes right into Vedes' pocket queens.
Bergeron's bust gave Serock points, but it also gave Vedes chips and started to narrow the gap in chips going into three-handed play. John Dolan turned the entire table dynamic upside down when he doubled thru Serock after Serock four bet all-in with the hand of the night, pocket sixes, and Dolan called with AJ. Dolan flopped a jack to double to a big chip lead while Serock fell even with Vedes in the counts.
Serock lost a little more chips after that as Dolan put the pressure on his opponents. In one of the pressure points, Dolan effectively put Serock all-in from the small blind and the two got the last of Serock's stack in on an 833 flop. Dolan's K8 for top pair looked to be in bad shape against Serock's pocket queens, but Dolan turned a king to bust Serock, who picked up his second consecutive third place finish.
The pot gave Dolan the advantage in chips going into heads-up play, but Vedes was a guy with something to prove and he had no intention of giving up. Vedes tread water for a while, but picked up momentum when he flopped a flush and got it in against Dolan's top pair to double up.
The second double up, where both players flopped top pair and got it in with Vedes holding the bigger kicker, gave Vedes his first chip lead of the night, which he would never relinquish. Vedes called it then, telling the crowd, "It's all over. Lights out."
It was over just seven hands later. Dolan three-bet all-in with K6 and Vedes called him with A10. The KJ6 flop looked to be all Dolan, but the turn was Vedes' saving grace, as it brought the Q, giving him a straight. When the river failed to fill Dolan up, Vedes could pop some champagne and celebrate, as he defied the odds, claimed redemption, and picked up a nearly $800,000 payday.
Here are the final table results from the Season X Seminole Hard Rock Showdown:
1st: Tommy Vedes - $779,520 (includes $25,500 WPT World Championship seat)

Pleasant fragrances used during special events help to create a positive ambiance and improve the moods of the attendees. This of course helps facilitate open, friendly communication and business networking. Using scents has the added advantage over traditional product promotion in that scent fills the entire space and becomes associated with the product.
Use of the right, high-quality fragrance, suited to the time, place and needs of the promotion, along with the use of the leading dispersal equipment is vital in designing the proper brand image and ambiance at a special event.

Cake Truffles
I had an awesome dream last night. Can I tell you about it?
I dreamed....I dreamed about my pantry. My pantry. I surely must officially be old, if my most exciting dream ever involves my pantry and neat rows of beautifully organized dry goods.
In reality, my pantry is mediocre. It's fine. I can close the door and know that the oatmeal and Cheerios are secure. Teddy Grahams and diced tomatoes, I got 'em, and they're fine in there. I do have a special hide-y spot for my secret stash of dark chocolate. It's beside the black beans and under a bag of tiny green split peas. I don't really know why I hide the dark chocolate. Hubs isn't interested and my kids only have eyes for the snack drawer when they open the pantry door. I just feel better, more secure, hiding it from rogue pantry door-openers. ?
Anywho! My dream. In my dream, I opened my pantry door to find that it was HUGE! Just huge, like a warehouse! I could walk down the rows and admire all of the beautiful, matching bins that organized my pantry staples. JOY! There was even a lounge chair I could sit in and marvel at it all, and probably eat my chocolate in peace.
And then I woke up.
Poof! It was over. My pantry dream was so real, it made me so happy. Oh, WHY did it have to end? Bitter, that's how I'm feeling right now.
Let's talk Cake Truffles then, shall we? I'm certain they'll take the bitterness away.
They're so cute and tiny. I did hundreds of these little treats just before the holidays. Hundreds. Only once did I think to take a picture of them. Once, just before I closed the lid on their little box and packed them up for delivery. So, sorry for the stinky photo. :(
You should make some for yourself. You can make any flavor combination that floats your boat. Here are some of my favorites.
Red Velvet Cake + Cream Cheese Frosting, Dipped in White Chocolate/or Milk Chocolate
French Vanilla Cake + Vanilla Buttercream, Dipped in Dark Chocolate
Chocolate Cake + Fudgey Chocolate Frosting, Dipped in Dark/Milk Chocolate
They are pretty simple to make, they just take time and a little patience.
1. You make a cake. Your favorite cake. Make it from scratch or use a mix, no judgements here.
2. Let the cake cool. Cool completely. I usually make my cakes a day ahead.
3. Crumble the cake and put it in the bowl of a mixer. Turn on the mixer and let the blade break the cake into fine crumbs.
4. Add some frosting, whatever you like. I usually use about 1 cup of frosting, anything more is too sweet, in my opinion. Mix it in with the cake crumbs.
5. Roll the mixture into 1" balls and set them on wax paper. I don't refrigerate mine like some people. I find that they set up just fine at room temp, and if they are too cold when you dip them in chocolate, the chocolate coating cracks. That's sad.
6. Melt some good quality dipping chocolate. (I like Ghirardelli bars or Guittard wafers.) I use a little fork to lower the cake balls into the chocolate, gently roll them to coat with chocolate and then lift them out. Give the fork a couple taps on the side of the bowl to get rid of the excess chocolate and then place them back on wax paper. Let them sit a minute as you continue dipping, then you can drizzle them with a little more chocolate and top them with sanding sugar or sprinkles.
That's how I do it and it works for me. :)
Make some!

This is a well thought out bike bag, and clearly is not just a bag that may work whilst riding. As a X-country and trails rider, this bag comes into its own as it does not have pouches sticking out which when navigating your way through a dense forest, can cause a problem as the pouches can and do become snagged on brenchs. But with this bag due to the lack of pouches sticking out this seldom happens. However the bag could do with an adjuster strap on the top part of the bag which sits over the shoulders. As there is quite a bit of movement which can off-balance the rider and bike, especially when a 2ltr bladder is also in the bag and other kit. The materials could be a bit thicker as I think over time, things like the tools will rub a hole through the material. Nice to see a bit of "out of the box" thinking this is in regards to the two pockets on the sides merging into the waste strap, however these could be a bit bigger.
11/01/2012 13:47:53
Have used the bag once with very little in it, and the outside stitching on one of the little black pockets at the bottom came undone (about an inch worth). Took it back to the Cheltenham store who exchanged it. Good little bag, and looks good too so quite happy to assume that this was just a one-off glitch. The star rating would otherwise have been much higher.
12/03/2012 09:44:59
Lightweight and high-viz. Padded back for comfort and straps to hold against body whilst exercising. Headphone hole plus an inner zipped pouch for your music device or valuables such as keys or wallet, saves rummaging. Also you put a bladder in this bag as it has H20 technology : )
16/07/2012 12:38:38
So far only used once- for unexpected shopping on a bike trip. Filled it beyond capacity and it was surprsingly comfortable given the circumstances. Not yet used for walking but seems to fit the bill of a very lightweight summer (if we ever get one) sac.
11/09/2012 13:20:50
I needed a backpack to wear when I go cycling, which I have just started doing. My priorities were comfort, size and price. The fully padded shoulder straps on this is great and the chest and waist straps will make sure it fits securely.
27/07/2013 21:20:21
Light weight and plent of different pockets for use. Comfortable to wear. Easy to pack with water bottle and mp3 with head phones. I am a tall person so finding a bag suitable and comfortable is not easy, this bag really works for me.
23/09/2012 18:17:25
The product has many compartments to store all your belongings whilst on a bike ride long or short. You will need to purchase the camal packs for the actualt drink separately as this is not included. Overall a very good product.
02/09/2012 19:21:20
great product, adjustable straps so fits like a dream. colour was just what i needed to be visable outside, on and off the road. has quite a few compartments. also got in the sale so an added bonus. i would recommend it.
24/07/2012 19:13:09
Extremely comfortable bike bag, ideal for commuting to work or long bike trips, great side pockets that can accessed without taking the backpack off. Internal pockets very useful and stops phone/wallet etc rattling around.
17/01/2013 12:37:06
This good functional bike bag with chest and waist straps and enough space to carry the essential bikin items such as maps, tools, waterproofs and valuables. It has five compartments to keep things seperate and organised.
18/07/2012 08:05:46
haven't used it yet but got for use with my mountain bike to hold bits and bobs. Fits well and is comfortable but will need to see if I can still say the same after a while riding...
16/03/2013 09:58:50
Needed a compact pack for day cycling and this really is the business. Lightweight but large enough to carry all I want. Hi-viz colour a great safety feature. Top marks.
25/09/2012 22:59:52
Perfect for day rides, large enough for waterproofs, snacks, maps and phones, etc but small enough to sit tightly on your back. Very slim which lessens wind resistance.
13/07/2012 19:16:16
I needed something to go on public transport with & in & out of shops with out knocking anything or any one over + this bag I canot over load thus doing my back in
20/10/2013 21:02:27
Bought this bag to use when cycling to work ideal size not to big and very visable I believe you can also add a bladder to make longer bike rides easier
08/08/2012 18:35:57
I haven't used it yet, but when I tried it in store I was impressed with the comfort and the colour. It is also very lightweight which is what I needed
21/06/2012 12:21:48
Only used once but seems to fit well, has plenty of separate pockets which are useful and is one of the relatively few hi-visibilty rucksacks around.
14/10/2013 14:52:38
A great cycle rucksack with waist and chest strap for stability and a high visibility colour. All the features coupled with a very good price.
14/05/2012 20:10:07
Can't say a bad word about this bag, just what we needed, doesn't carry too much (so not tempted to over fill) , hugs the back nicely.
18/04/2013 19:47:28
Only thing missing is some reflective stripping on the front of the straps i.e. so drivers can see these when approaching

Rescuing the hijacked "Landshut" aircraft on October 18, 1977 in Mogadishu made the German GSG 9 (Grenzschutzgruppe 9) special forces world-famous. Just as legendary as the reputation of the anti-terrorism unit of the German federal police is the diving watch that their maritime unit wears during its missions.
Together with GSG 9, we developed the EZM 2 mission timer in the mid-1990s. This timepiece met the special functional requirements of the divers exactly and incorporated the successful features of the 403 HYDRO diving watch. Now this service watch has a worthy successor that can be purchased by anyone: the UX GSG 9 (EZM 2B) diving watch.
The diving watch incorporates proven features such as the HYDRO Technology for perfect readability even under water and freedom from reflection at any angle, a large black dial with white hands and 5-minute indices, especially visible at 12 o'clock (mission timer design), a case made of seawater-resistant submarine steel and a captive diver's bezel with TEGIMENT Technology. The position of the crown at 10 o'clock to prevent pressure on the back of the hand is a feature, as is the "GSG 9" logo on the dial.

An offshore worker who crashed during a drunken 370-mile drive home from a football match has been banned from the road for four years.
Douglas Norrie was still almost three times over the limit when he crashed on the outskirts of Perth after setting off hours earlier from Liverpool.
But Norrie - who has a previous drink driving conviction - was allowed to walk free from court after persuading a sheriff he had not touched alcohol since the accident.
Perth Sheriff Court heard how Norrie set off from Liverpool while he was so drunk that by the time he lost control of the car in Tayside he was still almost three times over the limit.
The football supporter crashed his car on a motorway slip road on his way home from a drunken 750-mile round trip to see his team play.
Norrie missed the bus for the match so he decided to drive from his home in Cruden Bay to Liverpool to see former manager Kenny Dalglish's team draw 1-1 with Norwich City in the Premier League.
Norrie, 32, was on his way home afterwards and about to enter the Friarton Bridge - which has a 150 foot drop - when he lost control, hit an embankment and rolled before coming to rest blocking the slip road.
At Perth Sheriff Court, he admitted driving on the M90 on October 23 while almost three times over the legal limit for alcohol.
He was ordered to carry out 90 hours unpaid work. Fiscal depute Stuart Richardson said Norrie had set off from the north-east of Scotland in his own car after realising the coach had gone."
He had arranged to travel to Liverpool to watch a football match and the original plan was to travel down in a special coach laid on for the journey," he told the court.
"Unfortunately, he seems to have missed the coach and decided to drive to Liverpool in his own vehicle after the bus had gone.
He went to the match and decided to spend Saturday night in Liverpool before driving home.
"Clearly he had something to drink in Liverpool because he made it as far as the M90 just before Perth, at which point he crashed his car. There was no other vehicle involved."
Solicitor Victoria Stronach, defending, said her client had not touched a drop of alcohol since the crash and was taking steps to address his problems.
She said he had been attending alcohol counselling and urged the court not to jail him as it would disrupt his "settled life".
Norrie was previously banned for 18 months in 2004 for another drink driving offence. Sheriff Robert McCreadie told Norrie a community payback order was appropriate because he was taking steps to tackle his drink problem and had behaved since the incident.

Ohio voters will be able to cast ballots at their county boards of election on the final three days before the election, after the U.S. Supreme Court rejected Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted's appeal of a federal court ruling.
Immediately after the decision was rendered by the U.S. Supreme Court, Husted, the Republican who is Ohio's chief elections officer, issued a directive to all 88 county boards of elections setting uniform hours for voting in-person at the boards on the Saturday, Sunday and Monday before the Tuesday, Nov. 6 election.
Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted asked county boards of elections to tell him what they want to do about in-person voting the final three days before the election, while Husted waits for a decision on whether the U.S. Supreme Court would hear his appeal of his ban on voting during that period.
In southwest Ohio, the answers Husted is getting are all over the map – with Democratic board members wanting more hours and Republicans generally wanting less.
As of Saturday, Hamilton County's mail-in absentee ballots are running 30 percent above what they were in the last presidential election in 2008, according to figures from the board of elections.
It is an indication of the high interest in this year's presidential contest - and the fact that, this year, six million Ohio voters were mailed absentee ballot applications by Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted.
A major court ruling Friday declares that Ohio may not ban early in-person voting on the three days just before election day itself.
Early voting begins Tuesday in Ohio; and election officials expect the number of voters who vote early by mail and in-person at boards of election to surpass that of the last presidential election four years ago.
As of Friday, the Hamilton County Board of Elections had already nearly 62 thousand and 5 hundred absentee ballot applications.
Four years ago, nearly 62 thousand Hamilton County voters cast ballots by mail or in-person at the board of elections. That was slightly more than one of every four ballots case.

Slices of Life...Optimism on steroids
In previous columns, I defined parenthood as an infinite act of optimism. You enter the job with open arms and an open heart, trusting the child you've been entrusted with will learn, grow and love under your humble tutelage. Loving one child is optimistic – two, doubly so. Imagine taking responsibility for 20, or maybe 25. I define that as optimism on steroids. As a parent, you get to keep the same kidsBy: Jill Pertler, Pine Journal

Tonight was another Meatless Monday. I find it so much easier to make meatless meals if they are ethnic in nature. We have had meatless enchiladas, meatless fajitas, meatless stuffed peppers, meatless quesadillas, meatless lasagna, meatless spaghetti, etc. Tonight was meatless tacos. I think next week I'm going to pick a non-Mexican, non-Italian meal. Perhaps meatless Japanese or Chinese. Some other ideas that I have are casseroles but those seem so heavy in cream sauce or cheese. Do you have any healthy, meatless "American" meal ideas? I find that most of the "American" meals that I can think of have meat at the heart of the dish. Interesting observation about our culture, I know.
I have a big weakness in my fitness regimen. I do not nearly do enough strength training. Even when I plan for it I sometimes completely skip it. How do you get yourself to do it? Do you enjoy it? Teach me what I should know about it. My knowledge is somewhat spotty. The most strength training that I've ever done is when doing the 30DS. I'm wondering if I should do that again in the mornings like I did back in the spring (when I was looking much more toned). Please give me advice and tips. I don't really want to lose more weight but would like to be more toned. Am I doing thing to really achieve this goal? Sadly and lazily, NO.

Todd Snider/The Magnetic Fields
What's So Funny?
Todd Snider: Agnostic Hymns & Stoner Fables (Aimless/Thirty Tigers)
Musically, these are not complex songs, and although Snider's boyish air never seems forced and his good humor always comes with laughs, his 45-year-old voice bears the gravelly traces of many sleepless nights. Yet for the third time since he kicked opiates in 2004, he's scored a full album's worth of new material that remains completely in a character unique to him while adding something new to that character. This time what's new is a band sound shambolically anchored by John Prine's New Orleans-raised drummer Paul Griffith and cunningly colored by fiddler Amanda Shires. What's also new but less surprising is an ever more explicit and uncompromising class animus. One song names the Abacus Fund Goldman Sachs and John Paulson conned unions with. Another begs to differ with the privileged canard that living well is the best revenge. Uh-uh, Snider sez. Revenge is the best revenge. A
The Magnetic Fields: Love at the Bottom of the Sea (Merge)
These 15 song-puzzles in 34:20 are sophisticated amusements all, although often the amusement is attenuated and one I get bored with before half its 2:38 is over. How amusing they prove over time remains, of course, to be determined. Most amusing: "Your Girlfriend's Face" and "I'll Go Anywhere With Hugh" (tie). Most‑-sorry, it's the right word‑-soulful: "Andrew in Drag." I note for the record that all three are among the first five tracks. A MINUS
0.0-0.9: Breaks new ground for terrible
Speaking only for myself, I equate a 5.9 with maybe a C+ using our host's criteria.
from pfork's old school rating key
9.5-9.9: Spectacular
9.0-9.4: Amazing
8.5-8.9: Exceptional; will likely rank among writer's top ten albums of the year
8.0-8.4: Very good
7.5-7.9: Above average; enjoyable
7.0-7.4: Not brilliant, but nice enough
6.0-6.9: Has its moments, but isn't strong
5.0-5.9: Mediocre; not good, but not awful
4.0-4.9: Just below average; bad outweighs good by just a little bit
3.0-3.9: Definitely below average, but a few redeeming qualities
2.0-2.9: Heard worse, but still pretty bad
1.0-1.9: Awful; not a single pleasant track
0.0-0.9: Breaks new ground for terrible
Pitchfork's Ryan Dombal hates the new Boss almost as much as Rolling Stone's David Fricke loves it...and rock criticism (our host and a precious few others excepted) is now as bland and predictable as the rest of the culture...
5.9 doesn't seem like raging hatred to me. I haven't heard the album, so I don't know if the Pitchfork review is accurate (though I'll bet I end up closer to Dombal than Fricke on this), but it comes across as fairly reasonable, not like he was looking for a reason to trash Springsteen. At least on his last couple of albums, the charge that the Boss has been using overproduction to cover up shaky songwriting is certainly not uncalled-for.
Loved seeing all the 1969 ballots - sorry I didn't have a chance to vote on this one. If I did, I know that the eponymous Boz Scaggs album would have ranked very high. When I think of Muscle Shoals or need a hit of Duane - that's where I go.
Merritt's 100 list didn't cite exact versions in several cases so yeah, pick your favorite.
Gracie Fields' "Sally" remains my favorite discovery from the list. Fields was a huge star in Britain, starring in several chin uppy musicals in the 1930s such as Sally in Our Alley (Maurice Elvey, 1931) where "Sally" climaxes the film (actually, you hear it a million times in 70 mins. if I remember correctly). She was a gawky, backslapping type who would fun a song when it got too serious, rendering it deeper as a result. Simon Frith has written about this tactic in Music for Pleasure and Performing Rites. Basically, working class audiences adored her because she epitomized their knack for keeping up appearances, smiling through the pain, etc.
You can check out the end of Sally in Our Alley here: goo.gl/xGdMi
Totally forgot about J Bliebz x Shamantis: "U Smile 800% Slower" which fits in the Slowing Down Pop Songs To Bring Out Their True Significance vein but succeeds beautifully in helping fill that hole left by My Bloody Valentine (see also All Natural Lemon & Lime Flavors: Turning Into Small, Ifwhen: We Will Gently Destroy You, track 3 from Pita: Get Out, The Angelic Process: Weighing Souls With Sand, Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti 2: The Doldrums, Belong: Colorloss Record, Glasvegas: Glasvegas, Infinite Body: "A Fool Persists," etc. and also, I suppose, the Kevin Shields remix bootleg While I Was Away).
Y'all forgot Kim Fowley: Outrageous. It belongs in a time capsule, remember.
Diva house provides plenty of screams. Check out Satoshi Tomiie's "Sneaky One" here: goo.gl/oTX1l. The screeching starts at 1:51 and will lift you up to the club lights along with the cigarette smoke. Also the Nevins Club Mix of Angelica's "Quando M'en Vo" but I can't find a link.

Posted: Jan 10, 2013 3:57 PM by Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - Warner Brothers won another significant victory in its epic legal struggle over the commercial rights to the Superman comic franchise.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled Thursday that the heirs of Superman's co-creator Jerome Siegel must abide by a 2001 agreement they made with the studio. The ruling overturns a trial judge's decision in 2008 siding with the Siegel heirs in their attempts to expand their commercial control.
It's the second significant victory for the studio in its years-long battle for control of Superman. Three months ago, heirs for the other co-creator Joseph Shuster also lost their legal bid to regain a share of Superman's copyright.f
Taken together, Warner now enjoys complete control of the Superman franchise. It plans to release the movie "Man of Steel" this summer.

Many things have changed since Snockey's Oyster and Crab House first opened in 1912—the menu now serves scallops, mussels, and Maine lobster thanks to third-generation owners Ken and Skip Snock. However, the restaurant's insistence on using fresh, local seafood and some of its original recipes, including Mrs. Snockey's original oyster stew, have remained unchanged, like a stubborn Precambrian fossil.
In the wake of Snockey's 100th anniversary, Phillyburbs.com called the restaurant a "seafood staple for locals and visitors alike," lavishing particular praise on the variety of oysters available at the raw bar. Oysters come from as far away as the west coast, but most originate in nearby waterways such as Delaware Bay and Cape Cod. There's also a large selection of cooked seafood including fried shrimp, broiled Atlantic flounder, and steamed littleneck clams.
In 2003, chef Shing Chung and his wife Doris became grandparents, and they decided that it was time to pass the torch. So after 20 years of running Lee How Fook, they handed over the keys to their daughter Sieu and her husband. With the help of the eatery's chefs, the duo still works to live up to the eatery's name, which translates roughly to "good food for the mouth." Busy members of the family cruise beneath almond-hued walls, which are lined with colorful illustrations of bud-strewn trees. Their limbs bend as if reaching for steaming chicken and beef morsels in sweet and spicy sauces or platters of peking duck or lobster. A BYOB policy allows for pairing with the diverse Cantonese menu and fuels chatter about the fact that nobody has ever seen the waiter in the same place as Superman.
Wok Chinese Seafood Restaurant fills its vast menu with an atlas of eats, drawing inspiration from China's Hunan and Szechuan provinces as well as the capital city of Beijing. The kitchen prepares traditional favorites, whipping together hot and spicy shrimp and steamed sea bass in a scallion-ginger sauce alongside beef with broccoli and chicken lo mein. The menu also includes house specialties such as the Dragon and Phoenix, whose chicken breasts, lobster meat, and snow peas are not formally recognized by zoologists as either dragon or phoenix. Red lanterns hang above the dining room, where a mural of a woman flying through swirling clouds is complemented by the whimsy of each table's pink-cloth napkins.
Sannie Japan Chinese Cuisine is all about options—its sprawling menu boasts more than 230 Asian specialties. More than 120 of those options are Chinese, ranging from traditional hot-and-sour soup to the chef's Snow White Princess entree filled with chicken, scallops, and shrimp. The Japanese portion of the menu includes more than 100 items, including unagi don (broiled eel) and sushi rolls stuffed with cream cheese, avocado, and crab. For those watching their weight, the chefs cook up health-conscious entrees that pair seasoned proteins, such as jumbo shrimp, with brown rice and a special diet sauce.
The tantalizing smells of chicken simmering in a savory sauce or buttery lobster hit the nose before guests can fully discern where the aromas originate. They might be coming from a plate of chicken slathered with black-bean or garlic sauce or lobster buried in lo mein or fried rice. These are just some of the dishes New China Restaurant's chefs whip up alongside classic favorites such as general tso's chicken and mongolian beef, as well as shrimp prepared eight different ways.

Jason Wu for Target: Product ReviewI was very excited to check out this collaboration in store because I love most all Target collaborations & Jason Wu is one of my favorite designers. I was certain that the dresses would be too short on me (which is usually the case) but was pleasantly surprised by a few. While there were some misses in the collection, I loved how on-trend many of the items are. Peplum, pleats, florals, stripes, red/white/blue combinations, slight Peter Pan collars. The collection had a bit of everything. It also had elements that reminded me of Jason Wu's S/S 2012 RTW collection which was nice to see, too!
1) Peplum top + pleated skirt + 2 tone bag: Yellow is typically a bad color on me, but, to both of our surprise, we loved this top. It looks nice without a belt, but I like the waist belt above the peplum which makes the top + skirt look more coordinated. It reminded me of a couple looks from Jason Wu's S/S 2012 collection (here, here). The top would look nice with a pencil skirt, too. The color reminded me of the Jason Wu dress Diane Kruger wore in 2010. Also, the bag is perfect.
2) Floral dress with yellow belt: This dress runs big, and the belt is ridiculously huge—I'm going to have to get additional holes put in. I like the neckline and length of the dress. The yellow, for lack of a better word, "pops" against the floral print and it's a flattering cut. It would look cute with a cardigan and ballet flats for work in the spring and I also think I'll wear it to my cousin's wedding over the summer.
3) Shirt dress with slight Peter Pan collar: If you are wanting to try the Peter Pan collar trend, this one is very slight. Personally, I do not like this look on me, but by unbuttoning the top button it just looks like a printed shirt dress. The dress has a defined waist but with its shape it requires a belt (borrowed from Mom for this pic). It's cute with tights, though 1) it needs a slip underneath and 2) it's on the shorter side so I'm on the fence as far as keeping it.
4) Red/white/blue stripes: Red/white/blue "Americana" is a trend for the coming season which can be seen in retailers' nautical looks and in several of the Jason Wu for Target looks, too. Seeing as I'm always drawn to stripes, I liked this shirt because it captures the trend while still being the type of separate that can be dressed up or down. Plus, it's more flattering than the striped dress from the collection…which was kind of nightgown material.
5) Lace top + pleated skirt (same skirt as #1): Pleated skirts are "in" this season, though pleats can be hit or miss. Often they can accentuate the hip region and thus, can be unflattering. I was very happy with the fit of the black and floral pleated skirts—the waist band helps the skirts to fall nicely and the length, just at the knee, would be perfect for work or evening. I like the lace top though it's nothing special and therefore I will probably return it. It looks cute with jeans and a cardigan, too though.
6) Mixed prints (replicating the look from the above ad): When I first saw the Jason Wu for Target ads, I thought the floral look was a dress with mixed prints. I was surprised to find that it was actually a top and skirt, but I like the interesting mixed print look. Also, the pleated floral skirt reminds me of Jason Wu's spring collection (here) and would look nice paired with a white top, black top and even chambray. It's a little big, so I may get it taken in.
7) Poplin dress with striped hem: This dress was the one I was most excited for, but I knew it would probably be a bit short. I love it, but it's slightly too short on me for my liking and they only had a size bigger than I normally wear and thus, it's too big. It definitely needs to have a belt added at the defined waist but even so, it was still a bit too roomy. I ordered the next size down online and will see if I like the fit any better (despite the slightly too short on me hemline).
The black fit & flare dress is adorable in person, but was so ridiculously short on me it was the only one that I tried on that I didn't bring home to try on for a second time.
Seeing as I have several weddings, showers & events over this next year I feel that I'll get a lot of wear out of most of these items. Plus, many can be dressed down for work, too making them doubly versatile. All in all, I liked everything I bought but, of course, can't keep everything.
Favorites: The items I will definitely hold onto are both pleated skirts, the peplum top, the floral top, floral dress, poplin dress with stripe (if the smaller size fits better) & handbag.
