Uptown Aces Casino
This US-friendly casino is simply crazy about rewarding players. It's hard to find another one with such various offers containing welcome and reload bonuses.
Furthermore, these bonuses are not evil and wagering requirements are only 15 times playthrough at one of them.
I'll try to be your guide in the labyrinth of Uptown Aces bonus codes and walk you through it without much stress.
Games available
Practically, there is no game you can't play here. Obviously, you can play slots (3/5 reel and progressive), video poker, table games like blackjack or roulette, but also some specialty games and keno or scratch cards. The selection is very decent and finding your favorite game shouldn't be a problem - the navigation is intuitive and user-friendly.
Certainly the positive thing is descriptions. When you click on one of the games, you can read short information about the game's features.
The casino is powered by RealTime Gaming software, so you can expect a great quality and for sure, it offers the fastest games which are available in a browser, mobile and download version.
The helpdesk team seems to be experienced and patient as I asked them some detailed questions and got the satisfactory answer. They are available 24/7 through the live chat, phone call, email and, what distinguishes them from others, also skype calls.
Uptown Aces bonus codes and deposit bonuses
The bonus offer at Uptown Aces Casino is exceptionally various and I am 100% sure everyone will find something interesting. The are 3 attractive bonuses to consider:
1. $8888 deposit bonus
Major bonus package includes free $8888 bonus released in 6 parts and differs in playthrough requirements. The first tranche is the most generous, but also the most difficult to release. It contains big money boost with 250% bonus up to $2500. To be able to withdraw it, you'll need to play until the playthrough reaches 35 times the deposit and bonus (D+B) amount.
Remember to enter a special bonus code before you deposit the funds on your Uptown Aces account. You can make it by finding a Redeem Coupon screen in the cashier. For the first tranche of $8888 welcome bonus, the code is: UPTOWN1ACES
The second tranche gives you the bonus of 150% up to $1500. It is smaller than the first one, but easier to release. The wagering requirements here are 30 times D+B. To be eligible to claim this bonus, don't forget to enter a promo code: UPTOWN2ACES
Tranches 3rd, 4th and 5th are identical and give you the opportunity to enrich a free $1000 with 100% bonus. The probability that you'll manage to withdraw your money is higher here because of the low 25x playthrough. As well as before, you need to type a bonus code which changes ascendingly: UPTOWN3ACES, UPTOWN4ACES and UPTOWN5ACES.
And last, but not least, 6th tranche contains 100% bonus up to $1888 with a playthrough of 25 times. You can easily guess that the code you'll have to type here is: UPTOWN6ACES
Take a look at this screenshot presenting Uptown Aces bonus codes:
This bonus is possible to release only at slots, video slots, keno or scratch cards. No maximum withdrawal requirement!
2. $1500 table games deposit bonus
There is not much to say here, the rules are clean and clear. Bonus includes 2 parts, up to $750 each. The first one is about 150% and the second 75%, that's it.
- Deposited and bonus money has to be played on table games only (blackjack, roulette, baccarat, craps)
- Playthrough: 30x
- No maximum withdrawal
- Necessary Uptown Aces coupon codes: TABLEACES1 for the 1st tranche and TABLEACES2 for the 2nd one
3. Low playthrough of 15x
This welcome offer is addressed to the new players who search for attractive wagering requirements and aren't seen too frequent at the high roller games. The bonus includes double up of the deposited funds up to $100 to use at slots, keno or scratch cards.
The clue of this offer is a tempting playthrough, which is as low as 15x with no maximum withdrawal! To claim this casino bonus, simply enter a coupon code 100ACES. Remember that when you use this offer, you won't be eligible to claim $8888 bonus.
So if you are after deposit no more than $100, love playing slots, keno or scratch cards and a low playthrough is not meaningless to you... this welcome offer is definitely tailor-made for you!
VIP treatment
VIP system is quite expanded and it's all about collecting loyalty points, which are called Comp Points here. Every $1 is converted to a certain amount of Comp Points, granted to a player depending on the game. 100 CP is exchangeable for $1 of real cash.
Uptown Aces Casino has 4 VIP levels differing with benefits. Let's take a look at them shortly:
- 100-150% daily bonuses up to $750
- 30-50% instant cashbacks
- 10-25% weekend cashbacks
- other advantages: B-day bonus, faster withdrawals, higher or even unlimited maximum bets
|Welcome bonus:
|1. $8888 for slots, keno and scratchcards
2. $1500 for the table games: blackjack, roulette, baccarat, craps
3. 100% up to $100 with a low playthrough (x15) to use at slots, keno and scratchcards
Remember to redeem Uptown Aces coupon codes!

Uptown Aces is accessible for almost all the players around the world, including the United States, UK, Canada and Australia, but unfortunately excluding Israel and Moldova.

United States District Court, D. Nevada
March 31, 2017
PNC BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, Plaintiff,v.MAO AND ZHANG LV LLC, et al., Defendants.
J. Dawson United States District Judge
before the Court is Defendant Mao and Zhang LV, LLC's
Motion to Stay (#38). Though the time for doing so has
passed, no response in opposition has been filed. Having read
and considered the motion and good cause being found, the
motion will be granted. Also, before the Court is
Plaintiff's Motion for Status Conference (#34).
Nevada Supreme Court recently held that "the Due
Process Clause of the United States and Nevada Constitutions
are not implicated in an HOA's nonjudicial foreclosure of
a superpriority lien." Saticoy Bay v. Wells
Fargo, 388 P.3d 970, 975 (Nev. 2017). However, the Ninth
Circuit Court of Appeals considered the same issue in
Bourne Valley Ct. Trust v. Wells Fargo Bank, 832
F.3d 1154, 1160 (9th Cir. 2016) and came to the opposite
conclusion: "Nevada Revised Statutes section
116.3116's "opt-in" notice scheme facially
violated mortgage lenders' constitutional due process
rights."[1] Parties in both Bourne Valley and
Saticoy Bay have indicated they will file petitions
for certiorari in the United States Supreme Court,
leaving the constitutionality of portions of Nevada's
non-judicial foreclosure statute in question. In fact, the
Nevada Supreme Court has stayed issuance of remittitur until
June 21, 2017, to allow time for Defendants to seek
certiorari. Saticoy Bay, Nev. S.Ct. Case
No. 68630, Doc. No. 17-04543 (Feb. 8, 2017). Additionally,
the United States Supreme Court extended the deadline for the
Bourne Valley cert petition to April 3, 2017. Case
No. 16A753 (Feb 24, 2017).
issues the parties in this case have raised implicate
Bourne Valley and Saticoy Bay. To save the
parties from the need to invest resources in discovery
surrounding commercial reasonableness of the sale including
any fraud, unfairness or oppression, before the United States
Supreme Court has ruled on the petitions for certiorari
review in these cases, the Court grants Defendants unopposed
motion to stay this case.
district court has the inherent power to stay cases to
control its docket and promote the efficient use of judicial
resources. Landis v. North Am. Co., 299 U.S. 248,
254-55 (1936); Dependable Highway Exp., Inc., v.
Navigators Ins. Co., 498 F.3d 1059, 1066 (9th Cir.
2007). When determining whether a stay is appropriate pending
the resolution of another case - often called a
"Landis stay" - the district court must
weigh: (1) the possible damage that may result from a stay,
(2) any "hardship or inequity" that a party may
suffer if required to go forward, and (3) "and the
orderly course of justice measured in terms of the
simplifying or complicating of issues, proof, and questions
of law" that a stay will engender. Lockyer v.
Mirant Corp., 398 F.3d 1098, 1110 (9th Cir. 2005).
Weighing these considerations, the Court finds that a
Landis stay is appropriate.
A stay will promote the orderly course of justice.
At the
center of this case is an HOA-foreclosure sale under NRS
Chapter 116 and the competing arguments that the foreclosure
sale either extinguished the mortgagor's security
interest or had no legal effect because the statutory scheme
violates due process and the takings clause. The United
States Supreme Court's consideration of petitions for
certiorari in Bourne Valley and Saticoy Bay
has the potential to be dispositive of this case or major
discrete issues presented by it. The jurisprudence in this
area of unique Nevada law continues to evolve causing parties
in the scores of foreclosure-challenge actions pending to
file new motions or supplement the ones that they already
have pending, resulting in "docket-clogging entries and
an impossible-to-follow chain of briefs in which arguments
are abandoned and replaced." Nationstar Mortg., LLC
v. Springs at Spanish Trail Assoc., 2017 WL 752775, *2
(D. Nev. February 27, 2017). Staying this case pending the
Supreme Court's disposition of the petitions for
certiorari in Bourne Valley and Saticoy Bay
will permit the parties to evaluate, and the Court to
consider, viability of the claims under the most complete
precedent. This will simplify and streamline the proceedings
and promote the efficient use of the parties' and the
court's resources.
Hardship and inequity
parties equally face hardship or inequity if the Court
resolves the claims or issues before the petitions for
certiorari have been decided. A stay will prevent unnecessary
briefing and premature expenditures of time, attorney's
fees, and resources. While this is one of the few cases in
which multiple supplemental briefs have not been filed, the
prospect of that occurrence is greater than not while the
petitions are pending.
Damage from a stay
only potential damage that may result from a stay is that the
parties will have to wait longer for resolution of this case.
But a delay would also result from any rebriefing or
supplemental briefing that may be necessitated if the Supreme
Court grants certiorari and resolves this circuit-state
split. It is not clear that a stay pending the Supreme
Court's disposition of the petitions for certiorari will
ultimately lengthen the life of this case. The Court finds
minimal any possible damage that this stay may cause.
The length of the stay is reasonable.
a stay of this case pending the disposition of the petitions
for certiorari in Bourne Valley and Saticoy
Bay is expected to be reasonably short. The petition in
Bourne Valley is due April 3, 2017, and the petition
in Saticoy Bay is due April 25, 2017. Because the
length of this stay is directly tied to the petition
proceedings in those cases, it is reasonably brief, and not

Closing arguments are under way at the voter fraud trial of Indiana's elections chief in a case that could oust him from office.
Special prosecutor Dan Sigler Jr. argued Friday morning in Hamilton County Superior Court that Secretary of State Charlie White knowingly committed voter fraud for political power.
White's attorney, Carl Brizzi, said in his closing arguments that prosecutors' case "is based entirely on assumption, innuendo and leaps." The jury is expected to begin deliberating after Friday's closing arguments.
White is charged with seven felony counts, including fraud, perjury and theft. If White is convicted of a single count, he faces removal from office and possible prison time.
Prosecutors claim White used his ex-wife's address on his voter registration form in the May 2010 Republican primary when he actually had a condo elsewhere with his fiancée. Brizzi rested Thursday without presenting a case againsthe charges.
The strategy employed by White's lawyer, Carl Brizzi, is risky, said a professor at the Indiana University School of Law at Indianapolis.
Fran Watson, who teaches a criminal defense clinic, said the strategy can work if jurors are unconvinced by the prosecutors' case, but she isn't sure it was wise in White's case.
"It is a sound strategy in that it's always the prosecutor's burden to prove the case beyond a reasonable doubt," Watson said.
But, she added, "With seven counts, it's a little hard to believe it's going to work," as the more counts there are against a defendant, the greater the odds that jurors will find him guilty of at least one.
White would be immediately removed from office if jurors find him guilty, said Fred Biesecker, an attorney at Ice Miller who handles government and election law cases.
State law says that any "public officer ...shall be removed from office...when ...a jury publicly announces a verdict against the person for a felony."
The same law says the official can return to office if the conviction is reversed on appeal, he said.
Prosecutors claim White used his ex-wife's address on his voter registration form in the May 2010 Republican primary when he actually had a condo elsewhere with his fiancee. They also say he continued to collect a salary for a council position after he had moved from the district he was supposed to represent.
White, 42, has said the charges he faces ignore a complicated personal life in which he was trying to raise his 10-year-old son, plan his second marriage in May 2010 and campaign for the statewide office he won that November. He said he stayed at his ex-wife's house when he wasn't on the road campaigning and did not live in the condo until after his remarriage.
White has resisted calls to resign from Democrats and Republicans, including Gov. Mitch Daniels.
In December, a Marion County judge ruled that White should be ousted, but that decision has been appealed. The same judge also said White should be replaced by Vop Osili, the Democrat he defeated in the November 2010 election by about 300,000 votes; state law calls for Daniels to appoint a successor.

It's official! FAU Senior Players countdown
It's official! FAU Senior Players countdown
Original Owls begin final season
Published Monday, August 9, 2004
by Hannon Deutsch
Florida Atlantic University football head coach Howard Schnellenberger knows how to win. He?s proven it at both the collegiate and professional level.
But when Schnellenberger came to FAU with aspirations of building a football program from scratch, many thought he was out of his league. All Schnellenberger did was lead his team to a 10-game winning streak and the Division I-AA playoffs last season. Now, nobody is harboring any doubts.
And although the football team is only entering its fourth season, the program?s initial goals of becoming a Division I-A member is now becoming a reality.
Schnellenberger is preparing his squad, which is the most experienced in the nation with 30-plus seniors, for the most anticipated season to date.
?The players came here because they wanted to be the casual agent for the growth and development for this football team,? Schnellenberger said. ?They wanted to be the players that lead the foundation and set the records and folklore.?
The football team will report to practice today at 3:30 p.m. to begin preparing for what will be its hardest task yet ? Hawaii.
All but four games will be against I-A opponents. The challenge of facing a team like Hawaii in the season opener on Sept. 4, which has a legitimate Heisman Trophy contender in Timmy Chang, will be a tough task for defensive MVP Chris Laskowski and Co.
Chang needs 2,218 yards to break Ty Detmer?s NCAA record of 15,031 and should break it if he stays healthy.
The result of that game will give Schnellenberger and his staff a good indication of where the team stands early on. So far he is impressed with the condition the players are in coming into Monday.
?Knowing that they?re playing in their last year of college football, they have approached this preparation stronger than at any point,? he said. ?I am excited for Monday and anxious to see how this team prepares for Hawaii.?<br>Schnellenberger said they have a real opportunity to distinguish themselves in the Sun Belt Conference. The seniors? mission is clear and they all want to go out in style. With last season?s run behind them, the team is now focused for a new challenge ? to prove the critics wrong once again.
If You Go
When: 3:30 p.m. today ? Aug. 20 (practice times vary)
Where: The Tom Oxley Athletic Center Practice Field
Admission: Free
Parking: Visitors should park at the meters in front of the Tom Oxley Center

With 2016 quickly approaching, people are asking what exactly the new Mold legislation means for them? For clients and contractors alike it means one extra step in exchange for a great deal of protection that imparts a sense of checks and balances. At MacFawn Fire and Flood Restoration, we have been using this standard for decades which calls on a third party inspector to come in and assess a remediation job for the scope of damage that will be addressed by the contractor and then later on, after he work is complete, conducts clearance testing.
Currently, the standard of practice initiates an Industrial Hygienist to go to the site that remediation work will be conducted and work through baseline testing. This includes taking air and surface samples in addition to delineating the space of the affected area(s). With the new Mold Legislation, an Assessor will also provide a value to the work that will be completed for the client to compare with the Remediator/ Contractor estimate(s). This ensures that the client is getting a fair estimate and that the work is done correctly!
The Mold Legislation that will be in effect in January 2016 also prohibits Assessors from having any affiliation with the Remediation Company to bypass any conflicts of interest that either individual may have. The licensing and training are also tailored for each respective position. The Contractor, the Assessor AND the Service Providers (a.k.a. Workers) all are mandated to have Licensing and Certification through the Department of Labor specific to their position and scope of work.
MacFawn Fire and Flood Restoration is currently busy getting their employees the training that is necessary to comply with the New York State Legislation and we are proud to report that we will absolutely be in full compliance with the licensing requirements set forth by New York State DOL buy the end of the year in advance of the changes! As such, you can rest assured knowing that any work we are called upon to complete will be done honestly and accurately!

Lobbyists spent more on entertainment in 2013
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - Records show companies and associations have spent between $14.5 million and $35.4 million to lobby lawmakers so far in 2013.
The Knoxville News Sentinel (http://bit.ly/16V1N9w) reports that spending on entertainment events was up compared to the first half of last year while lobbying-related expenditures were down. The newspaper reported lobbyist compensation is similar to last year.
According to records filed with the Tennessee Ethics Commission, AT&T reported spending the most on an entertainment event - $25,159 for a welcoming reception at the start of the 2013 legislative session.
The Tennessee Federation for Children and the Consumer Healthcare Products Association reported spending the most on lobbying-related expenses. Each spent between $100,000 and $150,000.
Meanwhile, insurance company Blue Cross Blue Shield of Tennessee paid the highest amount - $450,000 - to its eight lobbyists.

Just in time for the release of Andrew Madoff's book Monday, the Madoff family is back in the headlines with more hair-raising revelations. Coming less than two weeks after the release of his sister-in-law and Mark Madoff's widow Stephanie Madoff Mack's book, "The End of Normal," Andrew's forthcoming account will be the first inside account from the immediate family of Bernie Madoff.
Little is known about the book, but some details have leaked thanks to Ruth and Andrew Madoff's recent and forthcoming media appearances. In a taped "60 Minutes" episode that will air Sunday, Andrew Madoff tells CBS how he learned, three years after the fact, that his parents had tried to commit suicide. He described receiving a package from his parents around Christmas with valuable and jewelry inside. Three years later, Andrew said, he asked his mother why she sent the package. "She told me that she and my father planned to kill themselves and they put together that package beforehand," he told CBS's Morley Safer.
"I don't know whose idea it was, but we decided to kill ourselves because it was so horrendous what was happening," Ruth Madoff confirmed on the taped episode. "We had terrible phone calls. Hate mail, just beyond anything and I said '...I just can't go on anymore.' "
She said on Christmas Eve, she and her husband took as many Ambien pills as they had and went to sleep, hoping they would never wake up. "We took pills and woke up the next day," she told Safer. "It was very impulsive and I am glad we woke up."
Andrew's book will likely discuss how he learned about his parents' attempted suicide, along with how Bernie Madoff confessed his crimes to his family, their reaction, and the ensuing stress that ultimately claimed brother Mark Madoff's life in a suicide last year on the anniversary of his father's arrest.
Andrew's book may also be the mystery book, "Untitled," by Anonymous, that Little, Brown & Company promised earlier this summer. At the time, that book was described as "the inside story of life with one of the most controversial figures of our time," and the publisher promised a "60 Minutes" appearance timed for its release. And Catherine Hooper, Andrew Madoff's fiancé, is listed as a co-author. Still, "Untitled" was slated for a Nov. 14 release, and of course, its author is no longer Anonymous, so it's not clear if this is indeed the mystery book.
Regardless, Andrew Madoff's book will likely unravel some of the mystery surrounding the Madoff scheme and how the family is handling the aftermath. Stay tuned.

Simple Relationship Rescue Techniques
Wouldn't it be great if all relationships were happy all of the time? Maybe, but we all live in the real world, and that means we often face real problems. Sure, they may start off really well, and the two of you are so in love that it's amazing, but then things start to change. The novelty starts to wear off, and before you know it you're looking for relationship rescue methods in the hopes of staying together. If any of this sounds familiar, then you are not alone. The good news is that there are plenty of things you can do, as you will see.
The most important thing for you to realize is that your relationship is worth rescuing. If you disagree with this, then you need to find out why. What other things are going on? Why aren't you so sure about making things better? If there is something holding you back, you will need to fix that first before you move on to working things out. From here on out we will talk as though you truly want to improve as a couple.
Taking each other for granted is one of the biggest threats to having a strong relationship. However, this pattern can be hard to detect because, well, you're taking things for granted. The way to combat this is to take a step back and look at things objectively. Then try to put yourself in your partner's shoes and ask yourself how you would react to your behavior if you were them. Also, do your best to stop taking them for granted. Don't assume anything about their motives or feelings, but at the same appreciate the things they do.
You will need to reopen the lines of communication. If they were never really open, then you will have to learn how to talk to each other in a healthy way. This can be difficult, but you can learn how to do it with practice. The small investment you make in learning how to talk to each other will pay off in a big way in the long run; besides, it sure beats arguing all the time.
A really good relationship rescue technique is to live as though each day could be the last one you will ever spend with your partner. When you do this, all of those little things that annoy you won't really matter. You will have a new appreciation for what you have, and you will focus much less on the negative things. Doing this will put the two of you on the right track to being a healthy couple.
Remember, you do not have to accept a bad relationship. You can use relationship rescue techniques to make things better. It may not always be easy, especially if you have had a lot of time to develop bad habits as a couple, but it will be more than worth it when the two of you are happy again.

Subject: I have found a DVD that I think you would enjoy
|Rodney Carrington Live at the Majestic
Actor: Rodney Carrington
Genres: Comedy, Music Video & Concerts, Television
UR 2007 1hr 14min
Over an hour of hilarious standup comedy and music from Rodney's studio album, King of the Mountains. Also features the gut-busting songs that launched him to the forefront of the comedy world.

Movie Reviews
If George Strait did stand up
Bryan | Missouri, USA | 02/17/2008
(5 out of 5 stars)
"If George Strait started doing stand up it would be something like Rodney Carrington(Obviouly George would have to go 'blue' with the language. lol). With the jeans, shirt and cowboy hat, he is not far from being a country singer - and he can sing as well as be funny. I'm new to the world of Rodney so I cannot really compare this DVD to anything he's done in the past but now I am a new fan.
The songs are the most entertaining part of his show and, if you don't listen to the lyrics too closely, you'd swear you was watching a George Strait acoustic show. By that I mean the guy can actually carry a tune - the comedy is not in his bad singing but in the lyrics. The way he sings with funny facial expressions is hillarious and his piano player sideman getting into the act as well by going off on tangents singing until Rodney stops him. I am not easily offended at all so if you are, this guy is not for you. Funny is funny, if you can't handle profanity or sexual references then you should probably stick to something like Bill Cosby. Otherwise, this DVD is well worth buying and it makes you wonder how far Rodney would get if he actually turned into a serious singer(which in the bonus materials on the DVD, he says he has no intention of doing).
The bonus feature is entertaining too. You get to see Rodney meet the fans, hang out backstage and hear a few new songs not on the stand-up show including a 'serious' song he wrote about a friend of his who passed away. Be sure and listen to that one.
A very funny and entertaining DVD unless your a fuddy duddy who can't handle language."
Excellent, but Be Prepared for Rodney "Lite"
Jason | Nacogdoches, TX | 04/25/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)
"We were at the venue for the filming of this DVD, and I've got to say, he put on one heck of a show. The best thing about Rodney is that he's always fresh. He very rarely uses his old bit, so each time you see him, you're in for surprises, and this one was no exception.
But it seems that he has taken a bit more of a conservative path since his show on ABC. If you've heard his old albums (Laugh You [...] and Morning Wood), you will probably agree that this is a bit on the "light" side.
Just about anything that comes out of Rodney's mouth is hilarious, but I personally came to love the guy for his complete lack of respect for anyone or anything. While "Live at the Majestic" and "King of the Mountains" (they are both from the same show) are both well-produced and extremely entertaining, they lack the level of insult that made him famous."
Perfect for when you just need to laugh!
Rachel Carrington | South Carolina | 09/25/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)
"I bought this video having never seen Rodney Carrington's stand-up routine before, and I can honestly say I've never laughed this hard at one comic in my life.
To me, his songs make the DVD. He has a clever way of making you believe the song is going to be serious and then suddenly, one hilarious line changes the tune, i.e., Show Them to Me.
If you buy this DVD, be sure to watch the special features which offers a behind-the-scenes look at Rodney and his creative process. He does finally get serious with one song at the very end of the special features section. It will really make you think about the ones you love.
All-in-all, a DVD you can watch over and over again when you just need to laugh."

Glamour Gems online slots is a glitzy colorful slot that serves up 5 reels and 11 paylines of gemstone themed slots action and the simple theme that's based around the different colored stones is a cool one, one that many players will enjoy. Created by Kaya Gaming you'll find a very easy to use user interface and a clear set of function buttons that allows for easy spinning, and we like the way the designers have left the symbols on the 5 reels to float, rather than sit in boxes, while the black and gold backdrop clashes nicely with the bright and lively icons.
One aspect of Glamour Gems slots that you'll need to be aware of from the off is that while there may only be 11 paylines, you'll find that wins will come your way when the symbols line up left to right and right to left, making this a very cool all ways pay slot, and although there is no freespins bonus round you will be provided with a ton of wild wins and huge multipliers too.
The excellent bright symbols on the Glamour Gems reels are rubies, diamonds, sapphires and other precious stones and the only one that isn't is that of the wild symbol which is a golden chalice, making it very easy to spot as it creates the wild wins. The other important icon is that of the ruby and that'll act as the all important scatter symbol, and while that scatter symbol won't trigger a bonus round as such it does provide you with big multipliers.
When you see 3 rubies you'll be getting a x2 multiplier on your win, however 3 will boost that to x10 and all 5 rubies will give you a stunning x50 of your wager, which really is a huge multiplier. The Glamour Gems jackpot is a 25,000 coin win which will make its way to your balance when you see 5 white diamond symbols and there's also the added feature of the gamble mode in which you may double up your wins should you wish to try!
Glamour Gems slots, whether played on your home PC or your mobile device is a great laid back kind of slot, and the fact that there's no special bonus round or freespins will in fact be a plus point for many players, as this is a slot that's perfect for the no nonsense player who just loves to get those reels spinning and the wins coming in.

The knit will now be separated into 2. You will knit the front first, leaving the stitches for the back on a stitch holder.
Worked on straight needles, so pay attention to even rows that are worked in reverse.
Front knit
You will need to understand the confetti stitch to make sure that the mesh pattern remains, as well as the middle twist. The front knit is now on 96 stitches.
Knit 2 rows ensuring the confetti stitch and the twist continue, and knitting 3 stitches at the beginning and end of row (small jersey stripes).
We will now create the neckline, as well as both sides of the neckline by knitting the sides separately:
k41 (following the confetti stitch), bind off the next 14 stitches, k41 (following the confetti stitch)
Knit the right side of the neckline, decreasing every other row: 2 stitches twice and 1 stitch twice.
You have 35 stitches on the needle. Continue to knit the side straight until it is 16cm from the end of the armhole increases.
Knit 2 rows in stockinette.
Put stitches on a stitch holder.
Knit the other side of the neck facing and also put 35 shoulder stitches on a stitch holder.
Upper back:
4 stitches at the beginning and at the end of the row are knitted in stockinette.
You need to knit for 12 cm from the end of the armhole increases - respecting the confetti stitch.
You will now knit the back neckline. Next row:
k35 following the confetti stitch pattern, bind off the following 20 stitches, k35 following the confetti stitch pattern.
Make a decrease every other row decreasing first of 2 stitches and of 1 stitch.
Knit one side of the neck back, continuing with the remaining stitches and following the confetti stitch pattern - up to 16 cm from the end of the armhole increases.
Work 2 rows in stockinette.
Assemble one shoulder using the grafting method.
Knit the other side of the back neckline and grafting the shoulder as with the other side.
Part III will be the sleeves.

Choosing American-made furniture is just one of the many things you can do to reduce your family's carbon footprint. The considerable difference in shipping makes for less environmental impact, getting you off to a good start.
There's more you can do to improve your home's air quality, as a result of toxins that off-gas and accumulate in your house. For instance, natural, solid wood that is not treated with a lengthy list of no-nos such as formaldehyde and glues, saves you from the health hazards of plastics and pressed woods or laminates, that often contain added amounts of these materials.
Purchasing furniture that is not made with pine will save you from the out-gases of terpenes that cause allergic reactions and are irritating.
Upholstery materials can now be obtained in organic or all-natural forms, and vinyls can be replaced with natural latex. These choices mean less off-gasing from vinyls and no residues of pesticides, herbicides and fertilizers in the fabrics you spend hours sitting or laying on.
Speaking of sitting and laying for hours, think about what you spend 8 hours doing every night. Can you guess why your mattress, sheets and pajamas are the most important items you can purchase made from organic or natural materials? This is 1/3 of your life we're talking about, so give this one serious consideration.
Mattresses are made from polyurethane foam. This material is treated with flame retardants. Most mattresses made before 2005 used PDBEs, highly toxic material that puts you at great risk when spending your entire night lying on it. PDBEs have been linked in research to multiple health hazards such as cancer, thyroid hormone interruption, memory impairment and much more. Nasty stuff!
You're probably thinking there are loads of alternatives, but sadly, the other materials used as flame retardants all have their issues. Only a natural latex mattress core will protect you from this stuff.
Have I got you thinking about replacing your mattress? I visited Green America, and their National Green Pages, a massive listing of companies that offer products and services that support a sustainable lifestyle. You'll find lots of companies to pick from at this link. Want a place to start? I learned a lot at one particular site, Erik Organic, a company that offers natural and organic furniture of all types. There are many others as well, so do your research. As you already no doubt know, buying a mattress is no small purchase. Sleep healthy.© copyright Carrie Boyko, all rights reserved

"I suppose from my perspective I don't really care what people think. If I say it's not fiction, then that's just part of the hoax. If I say it is, I'm just covering up to stay safe (both of these possibilities have been suggested). If I don't give details it's because this is an elaborate ruse. If I do then I'm an idiot for being so reckless (though this entire post-it-to-the-web endeavor is reckless).|I can't keep everyone happy, so I'll just write- as I have been. As for you, I don't know. Just read? Love, hate, enjoy, despise… whatever suits your fancy." "Isabella"
—She's a Flight Risk: To Flee… Or Not to Flee… To Tell… or Not to Tell…She's a Flight Risk)
Here's how this literary faux blog began:
"On March 2, 2003 at 4:12 pm, I disappeared. | My name is isabella v. | I'm twentysomething and I am an international fugitive. | My name is isabella v. But it isn't."
A pretty good read… it's obviously not a "real" weblog, because the long prose chunks are too well-digested to have been written in one sitting (though the blogger does suggest that these long chunks are excerpts from an existing work). Still, it's an amusing read.

Drake is always pretty tough on documentaries, but this one if pretty cool and he seems behind it.
Recently Drake crafted a documentary with FADER & Sprite. After watching the piece, you can tell why Drake is on another level than any musician right now. "I'm not worried about these other rappers, I'm not competing with those guys," he says. "I already know their hand, I know their move. I study everything. I'm worried about the kid that's sitting in his house that wants to be better than me and all those guys. That's who I'm competing with."
Episode One of the documentary series features a rare interview with the OVO head honcho. During the sit down, Drake discusses internet culture and rap's increasingly level playing field. I love how Drake understands the importance of wrapping up your hometown first, and then moving out with the music. "Do it the way I did it," he says. "Do it from where you're at. If you have the music, that's all it takes."
Drake really changed the way people viewed of rap artists from outside of America. I credit Drake for making Toronto a staple in the rap culture. I am super excited to see what part of Drake's life they focus on next, and who makes a special guest appearance to drop knowledge.
