First place in the most recent Mspt event which was held in December 2012 at Canterbury Park in Shakopee Mn was $96k. I fell short of the final table busting out in 21st place with a decent cash. I can't wait wait to see what 2013 brings for the expanded tour.

Hey Renee, 21st out of 376 runners isn't bad at all! And with a nice prize of $2,904, I'm sure you'll be back deep in another MSPT event before you know it. With becoming the official media partner of the tour, we at PokerNews hope to help bring more attention to the tour itself for everything it has to offer. Good luck on the felt, and we hope you enjoy everything here at PokerNews.

I and my organization have had reason to utilize various sizes of batteries in products that we have developed for our customers. We have tested a great number of brands, and have found the Energizer line to be the absolute best of the non-rechargeable alkaline batteries, bar none. This opinion includes the "other" "high end" batteries (with the copper.)If you need long-lasting batteries, I HIGHLY recommend Energizers.
Quick shipping, quality products and reasonable prices. I've redone most of my home with MCM products. Very pleased.

3-year-old boy pulled from backyard pool in ICUPosted: Updated:
A 3-year-old boy is in extremely critical condition after being pulled from a backyard swimming pool Sunday morning, according to Phoenix fire officials.
The fire department was called to the child's family home just before 10 a.m. off of Interstate 17 near Union Hills.
"The family said we just got up, we had breakfast this morning and we lost track of him, they were thinking right around five minutes," said Phoenix fire Capt. Jonathan Jacobs.
It is not clear exactly how long the boy may have been underwater, but crews started CPR as soon as they arrived.
Jacobs said there are French doors that open to the backyard pool and that there are no barriers around the water.
Neighbors watched it all unfold Sunday morning and are pretty shaken up.
"They did have a lot of kids and little boys and they were very nice people, but you know, this is really shocking for us," said neighbor Mariah Graziana.
Fire officials are warning all pool owners to install pool fences and gates as summertime approaches.
The last update from officials is that the child is in ICU at a Valley hospital.
This is the second near child drowning in the Valley this year, according to Jacobs.

As of today, all the plants are still alive, to a certian extent. ;) The only ones I think I lost are the queen palm (no real surprise there), and the bower and jasmine sambac vines, although they might come back from the roots. Also, the carboard palm looks very sketchy. We'll see about that one. I do have two more in pots.beach_barbie Nov 23, 2014
Well, the mule palms didn't make it. :( Either did the bower, but surprise surprise, the sambac came back to live around July. Of all of those, the cardboard faired the best.11 photos United States

Theatre teaching
CLIMB Theatre of Inver Grove Heights, Minn., presented "Valentine's Day" for third through sixth graders March 21 at Hillcrest Elementary School in Ellsworth. After introducing themselves and their characters, the players asked their young audience to evaluate the performance. They then proceeded with the play, telling the story of three youngsters who are just about the least likely friends imaginable. Each has distinct personalities. By the end of their after-school program on Valentine's Day, each had been taught about making and keeping friends, empathy and the difference between friendship and popularity. Hillcrest kindergarteners through second graders watched the theatre group perform "The Great Cookie Exchange". (Herald photo by Bill Kirk)

Kalya Scintilla is one of those producers I hope you've all come across before. As much as I would like to say there's plenty of music like this that I really enjoy out there, I can't. The good part is that this album totally met all the expectations I had. Every single one of the producers who remixed Kalya Scintilla tracks did an incredible job. You always have to worry about a few that sneak in that you wonder this doesn't really work but nope. They all take the original sound and translate it in a way that gives it their own personal style but will most likely appeal to the fans of Kalya Scintilla.
I've almost striven to keep my post to people I've interacted a bit with. After all these reviews or takes on music are just for you to check out. You might hate my I love or love what I hate but this is where I get to say what I think =) And this is one of the best albums I've heard all year! This was enjoyed while just hanging out in the living room chillen. It's Halloween and this album create the perfect way to enjoy a night in away from this crazy world. Releases like these are the type you always hope for. Your favorite artist remix something you already love plus you discover new ones totally make you dig deeper and look for that special gem. The best part is you know you've already hit gold on this one.
I'm hoping that in the near future I'll get to met the creator of this original music. This summer I missed all the opportunities and the stars didn't align. My understanding is that he is from Australia which might make it difficult but you never know lately. Despite all that I'm sure they will be a chance eventually and that's what counts. It will bring me great pleasure to shake the hand of his. That all said lets not forget the talented team of producers that represent this collection of music. It's a special thing when you see a mix of artist come together to create something so outstanding standing alone as well as a union.

food dehydration
if there was a power outage due to terrorist attack and you had to somehow preserve all of the food in your freezer from going bad, is there any way that you could dehydrate it all using a fire?
Get MERs, there not the tasteis
i got emergency gold fish in the tank for that time ;)
I don't know if this is exactly what you're looking for but there is a lot of useful info on there about drying foods.
Runs with Beer (that's so funny) has a good idea.
Every time I move I dig a big hole 20X12X3 and put a good liner in it, then fill it with pan fish and cat fish from lakes and rivers in the area. Put a pump and filter in for water circulation and to keep mosquitoes from using it as a breeding spot. Add some minnows for food or feed them cheap dry cat food and you have a source of fresh food should the poo ever hit the fan. Fish are also pretty easy to smoke or dry. (Note: They can live for many months with no water circulation just keep an eye on the water. Live plants will add to their life span and survival rate of the fry)

Exclusive Military Discounts, Benefits & Rewards for
Active Duty Military, Veterans and Their Families Exclusive Military Discounts, Benefits & Rewards for Active Duty Military, Veterans and Their Families
For His Commitment to Preserve Employment Rights of National Guard and Reservists
Veterans Advantage® Honors Department of Defense Official with Hero Veteran Award
Veterans Advantage Inc., a nationwide membership program providing private-sector benefits for U.S. Veterans, National Guard, Reservists, active duty military and their families, announced that Retired General Bob Hollingsworth, a leading U.S. Department of Defense official charged with preserving the employment rights of National Guardsmen and Reservists, was named a "HeroVet," an honor that appears on www.Veteransadvantage.com.
"We at Veterans Advantage celebrate HeroVets as great Americans. Having given service in our military, Veterans like General Hollingsworth distinguish themselves by their continued contributions to our society, said Scott Higgins, CEO of Veterans Advantage.
As described in a biography featured on Veteransadvantage.com, Hollingsworth, a 38-year Veteran of the U.S. military, was appointed by President Bush in 2001 as Executive Director of the National Committee for the Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR).
"The General served his country with distinction as a Marine. We now salute his continued service and commitment to this key DOD initiative at ESGR," added Higgins. "He is an unsung hero in these uncertain times for our country, as he tirelessly pursues this important work with the help of a dedicated, first-rate staff and volunteer network."
"What we're doing is helping people's lives," Hollingsworth said. "God - and the President - put me here so I can influence attitudes and support the young men and women who are willing to put their lives on the line so we can live free."
ESGR is providing important support for the National Guard and Reservists among the country's employers. With 1.3 million members, The Guard and Reserve now represent 48% of U.S. fighting forces. To date, more than 168,000 of these "citizen soldiers" have been called to active duty, leaving their families and their careers "on hold" to serve.
Among his military accomplishments, Hollingsworth served as Commanding General of the Marine Corps Reserve Support Command; Deputy Commander of the Joint Force, Southwest Asia; and Vice Commander of Marine Forces, Pacific. In 1999, after 38 years of Reserve and active duty, Bob Hollingsworth retired as a Major General.

WBW #8 - Vini Siciliani Rossi
Posted on Friday 18th of March 2005 under
It should come as no big suprise to people that Katia and I are huge fans of Sicilian wine... after all we have a site called loveSicily where we, essentially, obsess, about anything Sicilian...(and in particular of the south-east of Sicily). However, we also like to believe that our love of Sicilian wine is not without some reason beyond our particular bias. We have spoken in the past about the very interesting times that Sicilian wine is experiencing, and have hosted an interview with the wonderful Kate Singleton in two parts (Part 1 and Part 2) about her experiences researching Sicilian wine.
So in all, you would understand why we are particularly excited to host the eighth edition of Wine Blogging Wednesdays on Sicilian red wines. Not only is this the first blogging event that we are hosting, we are also anxious to see what Sicilian wines people can find, and what they will make of them. The date to post your stories of sicilian reds is the 13th of April. Send us an e-mail at email@example.com to let us know about them and shortly afterwards we will post the summary of the event.
To mark this exciting occasion for us we decided to combine it with a visit to one of the wineries that is at the forefront of the Sicilian wine rebirth. This morning, we drove the 50 minutes from Modica to just outside Chiaramonte Gulfi in the region of Ragusa to visit the COS winery - the creation of architects Giusto Occhipinti and Giambattista Cilia it is evident than much more than a business COS has been a labour of love for them. From the wonderfully restored farmhouse, which acts as headquarters of their 'azienda agricola', to their insistence on not using any industrial processes (the winery has no chemical analysis labs), their care in picking the grapes and selecting only the best by hand - COS produces wines which are a true expression of the local area. Their efforts and the efforts of other wineries in the area are finding recognition and the Cerasuolo di Vittoria, which is now a DOC, will soon become a DOCG - the first DOCG in the South of Italy.
While at COS, we tried their white Rami, a mixture of Inzolia and Grecanico, an interesting wine where the typical freshness of the Inzolia is balanced by the Grecanico providing a slightly dry and exciting wine. The deep ruby Cerasuolo was wonderful, with the body provided by the Nero d'Avola grapes complimented by the fruitiness of the Frappato giving the taste of spicy cherries. Finally, the Scyri - a Nero d'Avola of 2000 is a complex wine that needs time to flourish once decanted, but we will be talking more about this one in the future. We did not however, have the chance to taste some of the truly exciting wines of COS, such as Pithos and Contrada, of which we will hope to be able to talk about more in the future, as well, since each deserves its own story.
In all, Sicily, with its many different microclimates provides an interesting wine-cultivating territory and we hope that you will be inspired to explore the different wines coming from the hills of Etna to the rocky fields of Pantelleria, where the vines need to be protected from the African winds and are at a lower level than Tunis, as well as everything in between!
Hey Ron...here's my review...great theme my man!
I was really thrilled to participate in this one. It also gave me an excuse to get all nostalgic about my visit to Siciliy many years ago. Great idea!

text: There is a new cupcake shop opening near me. The owner is interested in hiring me to do cakes for her shop. She does not, currently, have an actual cake decorator. She explained to me that any "special type" cakes were contracted out, at great expense to her company. Or undecorated dessert type cakes were put together with the customers understanding, the shop wasn't able to do anything fancy. I am unsure of what sort of hourly wage I should request. I am not looking for benefits: retirement, medical insurance and such. This shop is an a VERY affluent area in central New Jersey. When I left my cake decorating job, in another state, I was making nearly $15 per hour. This was many years ago, though. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

An Eastern Idaho man was diagnosed Thursday with fungal meningitis from a recent outbreak of the infection. On the same day, the Utah Department of Health asked Utah residents to be aware of any symptoms related to meningitis, according to a press release.
The New England Compounding Center distributed steroid medication, typically used for back pain, which had potential contamination. Though Utah health care providers never received the recalled medication from New England Compounding Center in Framingham, Mass., they did receive other medication from the facility.
On Oct. 6, recalls were expanded to all products from the Framingham location, according to the Utah Department of Health. However, the other medications have not been known to be a threat, according to the release.
Idaho and Nevada did receive potentially contaminated medication from the facility, according to the report.
"However, none of the recalled medication was administered to patients in Nevada before being pulled from use," according to the press release.
Those that received treatment in either Pain Specialists of Idaho in Idaho Falls, Idaho or Walter Knox Memorial Hospital in Emmett, Idaho could be subject to meningitis, according to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
At the facility in Emmet, Idaho, four people were given injections, and in the Idaho Falls clinic 35 people received the medication, reported NPG of Idaho, a news station in Idaho Falls.
"We urge patients who received injections from either of these facilities to maintain close contact with their medical providers and notify them if any new symptoms develop over then next few weeks," said Dr. Christine Hahn, Idaho State Epidemiologist to NPG of Idaho.
"About 14,000 people received the injections, though it's not clear how many of those shots were tainted," said officials from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to the The Washington Post.
For those 14,000 people, symptoms to watch for include being sensitive to light, having a stiff neck, fever or headache, mental status changing, nausea and vomiting, according to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
"Fungus causing human disease is notoriously slow to grow and hard to identify," according to the Post.

Cancer facts:
· 1 in 2 men will be diagnosed with cancer in his lifetime
· 1 in 6 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer during his lifetime
The Mo, slang for moustache, and November come together each year for Movember. This Movember some brave gents at Ubisoft decided to donate their faces to raising awareness about cancers that affect men. Their commitment is the growth of a moustache for the entire month of November, which has generated lots of conversation, controversy and laughter. The Ubisoft teams have already collected close to $20,000 for the Movember Foundation and they're ranked among the top fundraising teams nationally.
Movember challenges men to change their appearance and the face of men's health by growing a moustache. The rules are simple, start Movember 1 clean-shaven and then grow a moustache for the entire month. The moustache becomes the ribbon for men's health, the means by which awareness and funds are raised for cancers that affect men. Much like the commitment to run or walk for charity, the men of Movember commit to growing a moustache for 30 days.
The money raised will help make a tangible difference to the lives of others, through the world's most promising prostate cancer research and LIVESTRONG's programs that support young adults and their families battling and surviving cancer.

Fore! Sale
Golf Courses Are Hot Real Estate.
When Towne Development of Hawaii Inc. reopened the Makaha Resort Golf Course on Oct. 5, more than one year after purchasing the 330-acre property from ANA Hotels Inc., the response from the local community was overwhelming. Golfers played a daily average of 200 rounds for two consecutive weekends, while occupancy at the 196-room hotel easily hit 90 percent. "Our business plan was to go after the kamaaina people," says Christopher Lau, president of Towne Development.
So far, that business plan has been a success. Perhaps that is because the hotel touted special room rates for as low as $65. Or, perhaps nostalgia may have had something to do with it. "A lot of people remember when the hotel was a Sheraton, they either went to the resort with their parents, or with their own kids," Lau says. Makaha Resort, a part of the Waianae Coast for generations, was built in 1969 by the late developer Chinn Ho.
Golf-related real estate is a whole new ballgame. "The players are different," says Douglas Pothul, senior vice president of Colliers Monroe Friendlander Inc. "The golf course itself is not looked at as a profit center. The profit is made in developing the commercial and residential land around it. That's where the money is."Makaha's new ownership comes at a time when investors have bought, or are looking to buy other golf resorts in Hawaii. But the market hasn't exactly been free of obstacles. The challenge? The economic downturn, combined with the fact that Hawaii is saturated with golf-related activities. "There are so many new golf courses – the demand in the early 1990s is different from now," Lau says. In 1989, there were 56 municipal and private golf courses (936 holes) in the state, according to the Department of Business Economic Development and Tourism. Today, Hawaii is home to 77 courses (1,496 holes).
Makaha's previous owner ANA Hotels purchased the resort in 1979 for $9.5 million and in 1982 turned over hotel operations to Sheraton Corp. The hotel closed six years ago, but the 18-hole golf course stayed open until Towne Realty agreed to buy the property in October 2000 for an undisclosed price.Towne Realty knew there was potential money in Makaha Resort. The company renovated 96 of the hotel's 196 rooms, replaced about 100 golf carts, renovated eight ponds and refilled the sand traps with more than 400 tons of new sand. The price tag for the makeover: $3 million.
Another course that recently went off the market is Luana Hills Country Club, which HRT Ltd., an entity of the Maryland-based Harry & Jeannette Weinberg Foundation, bought last December for $12 million. The buyout included the 19-hole course and clubhouse on 1,064 acres of land. Luana Hills' previous owner, Japan-based Pan-Pacific Development Inc., in 1995 bought Luana Hills from Y.Y. Valley Corp for an estimated $35 million.
In early November, the Honolulu Country Club went on the market for $16.7 million. The daily-fee public course, located in central Oahu, was built in 1957 on 136 acres of fee-simple land. Its owners are a subsidiary of Japan's Sumitomo Bank plus a group of 28 local investors. Unlike other courses on the market, however, this one has the potential to be converted into a private, members-only facility. HCC was built years before the local government required that all new golf courses must be open to the public.
Colliers Monroe Friedlander is the agent for two golf resorts, Pukalani Country Club on Maui and Kiahuna Golf Club on Kauai. Both facilities are owned by Japan-based Sports Shinko. Kiahuna's $42 million price tag includes an 18-hole course, pro shop and driving range on 144 acres of land, plus 176 additional acres that can be used for residential development. The $29 million Pukalani Country Club also comes with developable parcels, specifically zoned for a future hotel and apartments. On the 225-acre Maui resort is a 500,000-gallon, fully operational sewer treatment plant. Such features will draw potential investors. "Our goal is to try to position it to where a buyer will say 'I can do better than that guy,'" Pothul says.

Hey guys! I hope the beginning of your week is going well! It's Josh's dad's birthday today! Happy 63rd John! I hope this year is your best one yet! 😀 I'm so excited to get to celebrate in person this weekend! Here's hoping the rest of this week flies by!
I thought it would be fun to do another Veggie Reviewed. This one features some awesome products that have some great deals for you guys! I hope you enjoy!
Okay, so let me begin this review by saying I'm in love with falafel. I tried it for the first time when I worked at a Turkish restaurant in high school and I could not get enough. Since then I've tried a lot of falafel. When Falafel Republic reached out to me and asked if I'd like to sample some of their products I was very excited to get to enjoy some more falafel.
I received their Traditional Falafel, Roasted Garlic Falafel, and Traditional Falafel with Hummus. All of their products are all natural, vegetarian, gluten-free, dairy-free, soy-free and made with no GMOs. They are also super quick to make, they only need 25 seconds in the microwave. And the most important part, they taste amazing! I've been eating these all week. They have so much flavor but are also so light on your stomach. I love them.
Falafel Republic was so kind to let me share the love with you guys. If you would like to try Falafel Republic for yourself they're letting me give away 50 free product coupons. Simply follow Falafel Republic on Twitter and tweet '@GirlGoneVeggie sent me here'. If you're one of the first 50 people Falafel Republic will follow you back and send you a DM to request your mailing address. And then your free coupon will be on its way to you! You're going to love them!
My next review is an awesome concept that I actually stumbled upon through a contest a while ago. Noelle at Fitness as a Way of Life held a contest for HelloFresh. HelloFresh is a meal service that takes the work out of prepping and planning a meal. You simply pick whether you'd like to feed 2, 4, or 6 people, and then they send you the recipes and ingredients for 3 meals a week. The meals are healthy the food is of high quality and the recipes are easy to follow. The food for each meal is grouped into labeled bags to make it easy to sort what you need. When I won Noelle's contest there was only meat boxes. I asked HelloFresh if they could send me the box without the meat part of the meal and while the food was great, it wasn't a full meal. I remember talking to Josh and saying how I wish they would create something like this for vegetarians. Imagine my surprise when I got an email from HelloFresh saying they were introducing a vegetarian box right before Christmas and that they would love for me to try it. I was very excited to review a box full of veggies!
The recipe cards are super simple to follow. One side has all the ingredients and nutritional information while the other side has step by step directions to cook the meal. The picture illustrations are very helpful.
For my first HelloFresh meal I decided to make Lean and Green Pasta. It had brown pasta and broccolini and snap peas in it and was so incredibly good. I made it at Josh's while he was at a meeting and when he came home the first thing he said was how great the house smelled. The only thing I changed about the recipe was subbing Greek yogurt for sour cream. As a vegetarian protein is really important and Greek yogurt is a great way to bulk up a meal and scale back on unnecessary fat at the same time. My recommendation to HelloFresh is that they get rid of the sour cream, the Greek yogurt tastes exactly the same in the dish and is way better for you!
HelloFresh was so kind to share a discount with me to pass along to you guys. If a box of fresh ingredients and delicious recipes sounds like something right up your alley they're offering Girl Gone Veggie readers 30% off their meals purchase until the end of January. Simply pick your food plan and enter code "HF_girlgoneveggie" at checkout!
My last review is one my dad enjoyed just as much as me. We're BIG Hershey's fans in this house. We grew up going to Hershey Park for field trips (I performed at their Music in the Parks with my orchestra when I was younger and it's where the State competition was held every year for FBLA.) and my fridge always has at least five Hershey's bars in it at a time. (I'm not kidding.) Lots of people wax poetic about fancy chocolates but to me the best tasting chocolate is Hershey's. I was recently contacted by Hershey's with information about the benefits of dark chocolate and sent a package of their Bliss dark chocolates and all natural cocoa powder to enjoy. Growing up I loved milk chocolate but now I only eat dark. At first it was because dark chocolate was more healthy for you but now it's because it tastes so much better to me. It's crazy how your taste buds can change! The same thing happened when I switched from 2% milk to skim. Speaking of milk, it is a great companion for chocolate. 😀
Hershey's sent me this very cool poster on the nutritional benefits of natural cocoa and dark chocolate. I love things like this and found it interesting so I thought it would be fun to share with you!
I don't know about you but that makes me want to eat some chocolate! 😀
Question of the Day: What is a product you're loving on lately?

Getting a toddler to eat can be a daunting task, not just because they're often picky eaters, but because they have trouble navigating their utensils and food. My son still has difficulty scooping up food on his plate, even though he'll be 2 very soon.
Constructive Eating has helped with that. They sent us a set of Constructive Eating Utensil Set ($19.95) and plate ($14.95), which not only makes meal time more fun, but makes it easy for kids to scoop up their food.
The set of construction vehicle utensils is quite charming and sturdy, but able for toddlers to hold easily.
To be honest, I was wary about this set, because from the moment I opened it (seconds before serving dinner, stupidly), my son was over-the-top excited to use these. Uh, oh, I thought, assuming he'd be more interested in playing with the trucks than eating. Surprisingly, he actually used these to eat every noodle off of his plate.
We were also sent the Constructive Eating plate to try out too, which is a bright orange "construction" color. There are divided sections on the plate which keep food separated for pickier eaters, and spots on the plate to "park" your utensils. It grips onto the table nicely too, which makes it easier to eat off of. And all of Constructive Eating's products contain NO Lead, NO Bisplenol A (BPA), NO PVC, and NO Phthalates, so parents don't have to worry about what else other than food is going into their kids' mouths.
Oh, and there's a special pink set too, for girls who'd prefer a pink truck to a yellow one.
Overall, we love this plate and utensils and how it makes an ordinary meal into something extraordinary.
Disclosure: I received a sample plate and utensil set from Constructive Eating for review purposes.

Japan's Financial Crisis:
At the beginning of the 1990s, a massive speculative asset bubble burst in Japan, leaving the nation's banks with an enormous burden of nonperforming loans. Banking crises have become increasingly common across the globe, but what was distinctive about the Japanese case was the unusually long delay before the government intervened to aggressively address the bad debt problem. The postponed response by Japanese authorities to the nation's banking crisis has had enormous political and economic consequences for Japan as well as for the rest of the world. This book helps us understand the nature of the Japanese government's response while also providing important insights into why Japan seems unable to get its financial system back on track 13 years later.
The book focuses on the role of policy networks in Japanese finance, showing with nuance and detail how Japan's Finance Ministry was embedded within the political and financial worlds, how that structure was similar to and different from that of its counterparts in other countries, and how the distinctive nature of Japan's institutional arrangements affected the capacity of the government to manage change.
The book focuses in particular on two intervening variables that bring about a functional shift in the Finance Ministry's policy networks: domestic political change under coalition government and a dramatic rise in information requirements for effective regulation. As a result of change in these variables, networks that once enhanced policymaking capacity in Japanese finance became "paralyzing networks"--with disastrous results.
"This is a fine book, one of the best I have read on Japan's political economy in years. . . . Amyx combines well an insightful overall analytical framework with a range and depth of rich supporting detail. This book is essential for anyone interested in Japan's financial system, political economy, or the comparative development of financial systems and their regulatory arrangements, in which Japan is such an important case."--Hugh Patrick, Journal of East Asian Studies
"This is an important contribution to our understanding of regulatory reform, and essential reading for students of Japan's financial markets."--Henry Laurence, Political Science Quarterly
"Japan's Financial Crisis is a must-read for any reader interested in Japanese political economy or political economy. It will stand out as a classic interpretation of the peculiar Japanese trajectory."--Yves Tiberghien, Perspectives on Politics
"No one has laid out micro data on the Japanese Ministry of Finance as clearly as Amyx does here. And no wonder they haven't. As Amyx's footnotes testify, the data she has put together were gathered painstakingly from a wide variety of sources, including many interviews with the very people making the decisions. With these data, Amyx gives us with nuance and detail, the inside scoop on the officials who operated some of the most important levers of economic policy during Japan's bubble-and-burst years."--Frances Rosenbluth, Yale University
"A lucidly written and succinct account of why financial supervision in Japan, which had been so successful in the 1970s, became dysfunctional after the 1980s. Deceptively simple, but full of sound views, this timely work serves as a good and coherent account of how the powers of the Ministry of Finance and Japanese politicians were undermined."--Nobuhiro Hiwatari, Tokyo University

RECIPES: Recipe Details
Fruits of the Fire: Montana Morel Burgers
Many Montanans eagerly anticipate the end of winter. As the snow melts and the ground thaws, they access maps of fires from the previous summer. There are hushed discussions regarding hill slope and aspect, access, and regulations. One goal exists, to find the elusive Morel Mushroom.
Following a good spring rain, the hills of recent burns are swarmed with people looking for the treasured wild delicacy. If lucky, a mushroom gatherer can collect five gallons or more of mushrooms each day. Good collecting grounds are closely guarded secrets. There is a brief period when Morels can be purchased fresh, but they are often dried and used for cooking during the following year.
This recipe combines these delicious fungi (that I collected) with regional, organic beef, and a bun from a local bakery. Please enjoy the Fruits of the Fire.
--- Patties ---
1 ounce Dried Morel Mushrooms *
1 cup Warm Water
1/4 cup White Wine (Sutter Homes Chardonnay)
1 tablespoon Olive Oil (Colavita Extra Virgin)
2 pounds Freshly Ground Beef Chuck Roast (Lifeline Farms Organic)
1/3 cup Diced Shallots (approximately 2 good size shallots)
2 teaspoons Salt (Fleur de Sel is preferable)
1 teaspoon Freshly Ground Pepper
--- Morel Sauce ---
2 ounces Dried Morel Mushrooms *
2 cups Warm Water
1/2 cup White Wine (Sutter Homes Chardonnay)
1/4 cup Olive Oil (Colavita Extra Virgin)
1 tablespoons Pressed Garlic (approximately 3 cloves)
1/2 cup Diced Shallots (approximately 3 good size shallots)
1/4 cup Fresh Thyme Leaves (loosely packed)
2 teaspoons Salt (Fleur de Sel is preferable)
1 teaspoon Freshly Ground Pepper
2 tablespoons Olive Oil (Colavita Extra Virgin)
1/2 cup Tomato Paste (Muir Glen Organic)
1 cup Heavy Cream (Organic Valley)
--- Other ---
Vegetable Oil to brush on grill
--- Bun ---
6 Sourdough Deli Rolls from Le Petit Outre (purchased at the Good Food Store in Missoula, MT) Note: This roll has a mild sourdough flavor and a crust that is not too firm.
--- Garnish ---
1 bunch Chopped Italian Parsley Leaves
--- To make the patties ---
1. Preheat grill to high heat.
2. Combine the mushrooms, water, and wine in a bowl to allow the mushrooms to rehydrate. Soak for at least 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove the mushrooms from the liquid and chop. Discard liquid.
3. Place a large, nonstick fireproof skillet on the fire over high heat. Saute the mushrooms in the oil. Cook the morels thoroughly. Cool.
4. Combine the mushrooms, ground chuck, shallots, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Handle as little as possible to avoid compacting. Form into six burger patties that are slightly larger than the buns. Cover and refrigerate until the sauce is prepared.
--- To make the morel sauce ---
1. Lower grill temperature to medium-high heat.
2. Combine the mushrooms, water, and wine in a bowl to allow the mushrooms to rehydrate. Soak for at least 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. (Note: this step can easily be completed at the same time as the other mushrooms.) Remove the mushrooms from the liquid and coarsely chop. Discard liquid.
3. Place a large, nonstick fireproof skillet on the fire over medium-high heat. (Feel free to use the same one as before.) Saute the mushrooms in the oil with the garlic, shallots, thyme, salt, and pepper. Cook thoroughly. Reduce heat to low.
4. Add additional oil, tomato paste, and cream to the skillet. Stir until all ingredients are mixed. Cover with lid and keep warm until ready to serve
--- To cook the burgers ---
1. Brush the grill with vegetable oil. Heat the barbecue to 425 degrees. Cook burgers with the lid lowered for 5 minutes on each side.
2. During the last two minutes of cooking, toast the cut sides of each bun.
3. Place one patty on each bun bottom. Add a generous amount of the morel sauce. Top with parsley and second half of bun.
* May substitute other mushrooms, including fresh mushrooms. If fresh mushrooms are used, the need for water and white wine in the recipe is eliminated.

Mass furloughs are expected to hit the Harrisburg School District. A source tells abc27 News that members of one union have voted to eliminate their colleagues instead of a wage cut across the board.
According to a source close to negotiations, AFSCME Local 13 voted 83-59 Thursday to strike down a contract that cut wages by five percent and increased health benefit concessions.
Instead, the source said the union opted to eliminate custodians and maintenance workers.
AFSCME Local 13 represent nearly 220 non-certification employees in the school district. It was unclear how many positions would be eliminated, but the source said "mass furloughs" are imminent.
Under the district's recovery plan, only four positions would have been furloughed. The plan had requested that the union reduce the benefit burden on the district.
"I am disappointed," Chief Recovery Officer Gene Veno said. "This was not a part of the recovery plan. I'm afraid mass cuts are coming. I strongly encourage AFSCME to go back to the table and rethink this decision before Monday."
Veno said that if AFSCME does not listen to him, they will most likely cut positions over the weekend. It is likely the cuts would begin Monday, the first day of school.

We received an excellent question from a loyal What's Up, USANA? reader earlier this year. It's an important topic and one that applies to anyone who spends any time at all on Facebook, so here are our thoughts in the latest USANA Social Media Tip.
"I've noticed I get a lot of friend requests from people I don't know. I tend to check them out before I add them or ask them how we know each other. How do I ask this without sounding rude?" — Lisa
With the advent of Facebook and other social media, the word "friend" has come to mean more (or less) than it once did. Family, colleagues, friends-of-friends, friends-of-friends-of-friends, mere acquaintances, and others are all now connected to us under the umbrella of "friends" on Facebook.
To Friend or Not to Friend?
The friending waters can be tricky to navigate. Aside from the how-dare-she-didn't-friend-me social ramifications, accepting certain requests could prove harmful (as outlined in this previous USANA Social Media Tip).
I believe it's important to actually know — either in real life or through legitimate online communications — your entire Facebook friends list. If a person you don't know personally requests your friendship (even if he or she has 50 mutual friends), be cautious.
When you receive a friend request you're unsure of, investigate that person's profile. This could jog your memory or make it clear that you should stay away! My colleague, Diana, also suggests doing a quick independent search on a site such as Google or LinkedIn to see if the friend request is legit.
Play it Safe
If you're still unsure, consider messaging that person (depending on privacy settings) for additional details about your connection. Perhaps you met this person at a conference where you networked with dozens of other people and he or she simply slipped your memory. Try something like:
"Hi, thank you for the friend request. I like to develop real connections with my Facebook network. Could you please tell me a little more about yourself?"
If this person really wants your friendship, he or she should be happy to oblige.
Or you could flat-out say:
"It seems every day I read another story about a Facebook hacker. Protecting my social network is important to me. Could you please remind me how we know each other? Thanks!"
If you're unsure whether you actually know a person who's requesting your friendship or your gut is telling you something's fishy, steer clear. Remember: When in doubt, don't friend. You may also control who's able to send you friend requests. It's always a good policy to verify your privacy settings regularly by clicking "Account" in the top right of your profile page and then selecting "Privacy Settings."
Speaking of "friending," be judicious with the friend requests you send and try to include a personal message with each one — especially if you just met someone at a conference, event, or other function. That way the person on the other end won't be left guessing.
How About You?
Have you encountered any "fishy" friend requests or worse, had your account hacked? Please let us know how you handled it.
How are you using social media? If there are topics you'd like discussed in these Social Media Tip posts, feel free to send them our way and we'll do our best to incorporate them into future posts. Please visit our archive of social media tips.

Alexander the Great and His Empire:
This is the first publication in English of Pierre Briant's classic short history of Alexander the Great's conquest of the Persian empire, from the Mediterranean to Central Asia. Eschewing a conventional biographical focus, this is the only book in any language that sets the rise of Alexander's short-lived empire within the broad context of ancient Near Eastern history under Achaemenid Persian rule, as well as against Alexander's Macedonian background. As a renowned historian of both the Macedonians and the Persians, Briant is uniquely able to assess Alexander's significance from the viewpoint of both the conquerors and the conquered, and to trace what changed and what stayed the same as Alexander and the Hellenistic world gained ascendancy over Darius's Persia.
After a short account of Alexander's life before his landing in Asia Minor, the book gives a brief overview of the major stages of his conquest. This background sets the stage for a series of concise thematic chapters that explore the origins and objectives of the conquest; the nature and significance of the resistance it met; the administration, defense, and exploitation of the conquered lands; the varying nature of Alexander's relations with the Macedonians, Greeks, and Persians; and the problems of succession following Alexander's death.
For this translation, Briant has written a new foreword and conclusion, updated the main text and the thematic annotated bibliography, and added a substantial appendix in which he assesses the current state of scholarship on Alexander and suggests some directions for future research. More than ever, this masterful work provides an original and important perspective on Alexander and his empire.
"This is now the best introduction to the history of Alexander the Great in English."--Choice
"Pierre Briant's Alexander the Great and His Empire may be short, but it is of a wholly different order of seriousness from that of Mr. Freeman: an analysis less of Alexander himself than of his record as a state-builder and in particular of the debt that he owed to his Achaemenid predecessors. . . . Mr. Briant is one of the most brilliant historians of antiquity at work today, a scholar whose corpus of researches into the Persian Empire has enabled us to understand its overthrow from the perspective of the defeated as well as the victor."--Tom Holland, Wall Street Journal
"[Briant's] analytical approach marks a welcome change from the plethora of biographies and studies on Alexander. . . . [T]his is a book that must be contended with and stands to serve in that role for a long time."--Sean Farrell Moran, Historian
"Briant's book opens a new line of thinking on Alexander, an interesting perspective."--R. Balashankar, Organiser
"In this long-awaited translation, Pierre Briant's study of Alexander the Great finally reaches English readers. Briant's account reveals exciting new connections to this old story of Greek triumph, illuminating the vibrant Persian Empire as never before and giving us a picture of Alexander that is different from the often distorted accounts that have prevailed since the Enlightenment. This is a book not to be missed."--Lawrence Tritle, Loyola Marymount University

Gourmet Live released its Halloween issue yesterday, and along with features on the real bloody Mary (think Kenya, fermented milk, and hot blood) and tips for hosting a Day of the Dead tamalada, there's an interview with Marc Summers, the host of Unwrapped, a Food Network show that goes behind the scenes of the nation's big sweets makers.
In it, he talks about his favorite candy factory tour (for the Bonomo Turkish Taffy shown above), the one candy bar he could eat for the rest of his life, the foods that creep him out, and the secret behind that edible slime they dumped on the contestants for Nickelodeon's Double Dare.
Have you ever tried to make slime at home for your Halloween celebration? What did you use?

A model of descending auction with hidden starting price and endogenous price decrease
Several new auction formats are spreading over the Internet. They have usually the aim of raising revenues by increasing the number of participant, who will pay a participation fee, rather than selling the object at the highest possible price. The aim of this paper is to study a format of descending price auction with hidden starting price and endogenous price decrease. In this format, usually known as price reveal auction, the price is hidden and players have to pay a fee to observe it. The price decreases only if a bidder observes it and not because of the time, like in the usual Dutch format. In the following pages, we will analyse the effect of the concealment of the price in a standard Dutch auction. We will, then, define a model for price reveal auction, and analyse its most important aspects. We will, finally, derive players' best strategy and the Nash equilibrium of the game. Our result is that players use a threshold strategy to decide whether or not participate the auction (observe the price and pay the fixed fee). However, in our model there is not a separating equilibrium. Moreover, we will find that there is a process of beliefs updating, which takes account of the time as a signal of the price. Therefore, if the game continues, players infer that the price is too high and update their beliefs accordingly. We will finally compare our theoretical results with empirical data about 135 price reveal auctions held between December 2009 and April 2011 on the website Bidster.com.

I have very sensitive and oliy eye areas so I didn't wear mascara until two years ago, when one of my good friend introduced this to me. After used it for two years, I would say it's a good mascara, although I don't know whether it's the best one or not. It dries quickly and instantly lengthens my lashes. The best part is that it doesn't clump. However, it does smudge a little in a few hours.
As suggested by professionals from cosmetics industy, mascara should be discarded in 3 months once it's been opened. I'm not a frequent mascara wearer and so far I've never finished one before I threw it into the trash, so it's a very costly and wasteful item for me. I recently fell for Maybelline Full & Soft mascara, which is at least as good as this one. I will not waste my money on this again ! continued >>

2010 Review: Bryony Quinn
Here are some real fact answers to our 2010 review questions though I found it near impossible to remember April specifically. The accompanying image comes courtesy of my centenarian neighbour…
My image of the year "I lived next door to Mr Christmas through most of this year, he turned 100 and a couple days later this note was by the post (where his telegram from the Queen mixed with gas tax etc). When I think about how he's got over three quarters of a century on me, this perfectly worded, beautifully written note (the 'N'! – for Nelson) is a heavy-small thing that is so much bigger than me and my year. He'd probably give better answers too".
Mark out of 10 for 2010?
9. I leaned on a number of significant landmarks till they fell over which was good and the easy-to-remember date will probably mean I'll attribute 2010 most things that have happened/will happen in the months surrounding this year.
What broke? How did you fix it?
The pop-up mechanism in the toaster. If by fix you mean rescue, I called the fire brigade. I also had some whiskey chasers.
What was the best thing you saw this year?
See image, plus Chris Ware and Daniel Clowes deprecating at each other, The Wire (Season 3, Stringer Bell?!) and some talented friends being talented. But 'let us forget these heavy matters for a moment and return to my dismal adolescence'.
(One best thing Simon showed me.)
What was your favourite day of the year?
The private view for our graduate exhibition was pretty great. Warm beer, patting favourite people and proud words about how good we all are (going to be) in a space we made for ourselves.
Most dangerous/scariest moment?
At my Dad's recently he asked me to 'just hold that end' while he took a chain saw to some very short, very wide branches. And that 999 call was made on a phone shaped like a decoy duck so watching built-in things burn has been down graded really.
Best Google image search of 2010?
'Joe Kittinger' and 'Spanish Prime Minister's daughters' and 'Heinrich Berann whole ocean floor'.
Best man/woman of the year?
Louise Bourgeois, Dennis Hopper and JD Salinger.
Your finest moment?
Moving into a new flat after a dross couple of months searching for somewhere in North London that didn't smell of murder and/or have thirty people waiting outside to view it at one time.
If you could only take one thing that you bought in 2010 into 2011, what would it be?
Some pickles my flatmates made because we're having a chutney-off. I haven't had a chance to make my contender yet so it'll have to happen in the new year.
What would you like to say to 2010?
Yours has been the most satisfying date to write to date.

Ashley Kamba's first thought was absolutely not.
But after some coaxing, the 24-year-old has taken a liking to being this year's Rhythm City Race for the Jackpot participant.
"I think I said, 'You better find somebody else,'" the New London, Wis., native said when first approached by Quad-City Times Bix 7 race director Ed Froehlich. "I got off the phone (with Froehlich), and my boyfriend said you got to do this. I'm really excited now."
Kamba, who lives in Davenport, ran the Bix 7 last year in 52 minutes, 7 seconds. She also ran in 2008, finishing in 53:35.
"This Bix will definitely be the most memorable," said Kamba, who added that the Bix 7 is the most challenging and most fun race she's ever done and considers Mile 4 and 5 to be the toughest stretch on the 7-mile course.
Kamba's starting spot for the Bix 7 on July 24 still hasn't been determined. But as long as the massage therapist is the first to cross the finish line, she will pocket $3,600.
"I honestly haven't had a chunk of change like that ever," Kamba said.
Kamba, who took part in Thursday's Bix at 6 and plans to do the final three training runs, works out six days a week and has been involved with running since middle school.
"I'm doing a lot of weight training and cross training right now," said Kamba, who runs six to eight races a year and even has a few victories on her resumé.
Kamba is the third female to be selected the Jackpot participant, with the previous two winning by big margins - Christy Lazaridis won by 1:18 in 2007, and Jannelle Swanberg won by 43 seconds in 2005.
"I want her to win," Froehlich said. "But I want it to be competitive."
For Kamba, the nerves already have set in.
"I couldn't even sleep last night because I was so nervous," Kamba said.
Past Rhythm City Race for the Jackpot participants
2009: Ben Lloyd won $3,500 with a time of 32:17 and nine-tenths of a mile head start. He finished 8 seconds in front of winner Meb Keflezighi.
2008: Ben Houtikier was beaten to finish line by 13 runners. With a 2-mile head start, he finished in 34:25.
2007: Christy Lazaridis won $3,300, beating race winner Duncan Kibet to the finish line by 1:18, finishing in 30:57 with a 2.7-mile head start.
2006: David Ramp won $3,200, beating race winner Lawrence Kiprotich by 12 seconds in a time of 32:01, after a 2.7-mile head start.
2005: Jannelle Swanberg cruised to a $3,100 jackpot, clocking a 31:41 with a 2.4-mile head start to beat Gilbert Okari by 43 seconds.
2004: Tim Delf was outkicked by winner John Korir despite a 2.4-mile head start. He ran 32:49 and lost by 13 seconds.

Ratings for Dr. Jack P. Agliata
Thank you for all you have done. Your office staff always makes me feel like a priority as well as you relieving my pain.
I really enjoyed working with Dr Larry. Both he and his staff are both caring and knowledgeable. Would highly recommend!
I love Dr. Jack. He believes in preventative care along with helping the current problem.
I've used chiropractors for the last 24 years on a monthly basses, Dr. Agliata is the best to date. He is very passionate about his work and will do his very best for his patients. I recommend his practice.. Thank you for healing me!
Very knowledgeable in his field. Would recommend him to others for treatment.
Dr. Jack is knowledgeable, gentle, competent. He looks at the "whole" person, not just the spine. He cares about a patient's nutrition and exercise as related to better over-all health.
Dr. Jack Agliata is the best chiropractor I have ever consulted. He knows the human body, is intuitive and hands-on. Rather than rely on machines, he does the hard work himself, exercises and stretches my limbs, massages to relax muscles, so that when he has to make an adjustment, it is quick and painless. I trust him and totally understand how an animal would allow itself to be adjusted by Dr. Jack. Since I am human, I appreciate that he shows me on the chart how a muscle is situated and explains how it works. Through his chiropractic treatment and the exercises he has prescribed, he has helped me come back from a painful automobile accident in February 2010. Elizabeth Barakah Hodges
I moved from NJ over a year ago and had been going to a chiropractor for years up there. I searched for months and finally found Dr Jack! Boy am I glad I did! He treats you with respect and consideration. He asks and cares about your total well being and gives you the best treatment for your problems. Dr Jack is very knowledgeable about how the whole body works together and what to do to keep it all on the right track. You never have to wait for your appointment; he is always very punctual. Dr Jack has helped me immensely regarding the pains I have in my neck and shoulder. He has also discovered other problems that I didn't know I had and has already helped with them. I recommend Dr Jack to everyone I know that could use a GREAT chiropractor. Dr Jack's assistant, Sarah, is always pleasant and willing to help in any way she can. I will NEVER look for another chiro; I have found myself a wonderful Dr and have also made a new friend. Thanks, Dr Jack, keep up the good work.
At age 14 I was thrown by a horse, ruptured 3 disc & had to have back surgery. After years of back pain,sciatica,pinched nerve and scoliosis, I was referred to Dr.Jack. Chiropractic care has been the BEST medical care for my condition. Dr. Jack always explains how & why treatments are being done,& always with the extreme care when treatment is being rendered.Thanks Dr. Jack for giving me my life back. SLIM
I am surprised as well to find an unfavorable review of Dr. Jack. He is a caring individual who will do all he can to improve the well being of his patients. His demeanor, knowledge and skills are unmatched when compared to most chiropractors I have come in contact with.

Old S&W Revolver
2 Attachment(s)
My buddy sent me a pic of this S&W revolver s/n 30,XXX and wants to know what it's worth,I think he would buy it if the price is right.Thanks for any info....Ninja
This looks like a Bisley "Break-Top" target revolver. They have a low hammer spur and larger grip. In this shape maybe $170 to $200.
Without looking at it, I can only tell you it is a S&W new model no. 3 .
These were made from 1878 until 1912 in many different calibre's. Nearly 40 percent were exported to fill contracts with Japan, Australia, Argentina, England, Spain, and Cuba. The proofmarks of these countries will establish their provenance but will not add appreciably to standard values.
Actually to a collector these can be quite expensive depending on the condition, even one in poor condition can be worth as much as $500.00 to a collector.
I would have an expert appraise it if you are thinking about buying it because I'm not an expert by any means.
Hope this helps.:confused:
Also,I talked to him again and he said it is a .44 Russian if that helps identify more about it.

Whatsapp Latest Update Brings Snapchat Like Features
Snapchat has gained so much of popularity and it is like everyone wants to be like him. It seems like Facebook is standing in front of the queue to add features like Snapchat into its own communication app Whatsapp. WhatsApp has introduced some new photo editing features which includes the ability to draw on your images, add emojis to your pictures, and use the on screen flash for the front-facing camera to enlighten the pictures in low light scenarios.
These features which are stated above are not new to the users. You too may be familiar with these features if you have used Snapchat. Snapchat has popularized these features and other social platforms like Facebook and Instagram have adopted it. Now Whatsapp is doing the same. The interface looks so similar to the one on Snapchat that you might not even be able to distinguish one from the other.
You may also like : WhatsApp Beta For Android Gets Group Links Feature and Quick Media Forward Button
Once you click a photo or record a video, you can add emoticons, draw on it, or add text to it – same as Snapchat. Adding to this, both apps use the open source Twemoji, so even the emoticons you add to your pictures are going to look same. Whatsapp also included in the update is the ability to zoom in the camera by sliding your finger up and down and you can quickly switch between front and rear-facing cameras by double tapping – again same as Snapchat.
This new update should be gradually rolling out from today. So check on Google Play Store if you got an update or not. This update will soon be rolled out for iPhone users as well. WhatsApp appears to be moving toward a more mainstream messaging product.
