I've gotten around to doing a little research on ad prices in the niche and surrounding areas of the blogosphere and as a result have decided to change the rates on my ad spots.
The 468×60 spot up and to the right that appears on every page is now only $20 a month. That's top billing and I only sell one spot per month. Right now, I've got my affiliate banners rotating, but a paid advertiser gets exclusive rights to it.
The 125×125 spots on the right sidebar are now only $15 a month. This is actually a little lower than some of my competition, but is what I still see as a fair price. There are 4 spots to be had here. These are set up as rotating, and paid advertisers (or contest winners) get priority.
And finally, the 160×600 spot that is on every page except the home page is only $10 a month. This is still a very visible ad spot, but does only show on the sub pages and not the home page. This is also an exclusive spot. Only one gets sold per month.
If you are interested in a package deal, you can a spot on all three for $40 a month. Also, if you want to pay for more than one month at a time, the following discounts will apply. 20% for a 6 month purchase and 30% for a 12 month purchase.
If you are interested in purchasing a spot(s), drop me a line at admin [at] thatedeguy.com or through the Contact Form here on the site.

BMW's sixth-generation 3 Series: Details and pictures!
October 4, 2015 October 4, 2015 les stephenson
BMW'S NEW 2015 3 SERIES: More images of the shell, interior and engine in the article. Images: Courtesy BMW SA
The sixth generation of four decades-worth of BMW's 3 Series has just arrived in South African auto showrooms with a choice of six engines for now – among them two diesel units.
The thing about BMW vehicle launches is progression. It takes a second glance, sometimes, to identify the new model when it and previous generations happen, as it does sometimes, to be in the same car park at the same time – though purists, of course, will pooh-pooh that and claim to be able to identify year models through thick fog at midnight.
Smart alecks…
Progression, however, is good – it makes owners of previous models of any brand feel better about themselves. A radical change in body style, I believe, cheapens brand history, emphasises that the previous model perhaps wasn't that good-looking (whether rightly or wrongly).
Jaguar, Mercedes, Audi, Rolls-Royce – they, too, evolve rather than shock, morph from rather than marginalise their forebears. BMW and Mercedes – arch-rivals, of course – have also tended to grow dimensionally: a modern Threes feel close to the size as early Fives; sometimes, driving a Three over the past 20 years or so, I've yearned for the simplicity of the early models: classic, functional, and oh! the thrill of being one of the first in South Africa to drive the first M3 way back when.
So what was said about 3 Series Mk.VI (ver.1) this past week (Oct 1 2015)?
BMW SA reminded (as it has, if I remember correctly, at each of the past four or five launches) in its media pack that the Three "is the founder of the modern 'sports sedan segment'." New word needed there guys, makes the car sound like a slice of cake.
The media release (such from Beem can run to the length of a short novel) tells: "The BMW 3 Series has set the standard for dynamic excellence, efficiency and design, forging an emotionally rich connection between a sporting driving experience and unbeatable everyday practicality."
Fact is, the range pretty much keeps BMW going, saleswise if not necessarily cashwise: one in every four BMW units sold is a 3 Series sedan.
Showrooms will carry four petrol and two diesel-powered versions (in various equipment levels) capable of 100 to 240kW and claiming fuel consumption / CO2 emissions of 3.8 to 6.5 litres/km /152-106g/km. The Corner will be happy to know what buyers achieve…
Gearbox choice: six-speed manual or eight-speed Steptronic (the latter standard on the 330d and BMW 340i sedan) sending torque to, of course, the rear wheels.
The body design, BMW says, "stands out with even greater precision and detail improvements": a new nose apron with revised air intakes (the central one housing the cruise-control radar, if fitted); the rear apron includes model-specific trim element; diode rear lights "emphasise the car's width and sporting appearance".
Diode headlights are available, diodes standard in the daytime driving lights.
The cabin gets "an even classier impression" with "chromed" highlights (well, things do come back into fashion!) on the controls, air vents and central control panel. The centre console has a sliding cover for the cupholders (nothing new there).
As with every BMW, there's a range of personalisation options with choices as numerous as cellphone contracts; also new wheel rims and exterior colours and various equipment options.
But back to the engines… three (yes, three) four and six cylinders. They come, BMW says, from a new and modular EfficientDynamics engine family that uses revised turbochargers.
The three-cylinder petrol engine (wonder how many young execs are going to brag about that over a frostie on a Friday evening?) is an addition to both BMW 3 Series ranges and, BMW says, to the "segment".
Debuting in the 320i Sedan is a four-cylinder petrol engine (claiming 5.9–5.3 / 6.3-5.5 litres/100km and CO2 emissions of 138–124 / 147-129g/km).
Celebrating a premiere is a four-cylinder in the 330i Sedan (6.1–5.5 and 143-129g/km) to join the six-cylinder petrol engine in the 340i Sedan (6.5 litres/100km and 152g/km). Fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, BMW says, are down by as much as 11%, the new transmissions are said to contribute to the increased efficiency of all variants.
On cars specified with the six-speed manual gearbox, the engagement speed control function automatically blips the throttle on downshifts, for example. The eight-speed Steptronic transmission allows multiple sequential downshifts; a coasting function hones fuel efficiency.
TAKE THE WORLD WIDE WEB WITH YOU…
Improved shock-absorbers, a stiffer suspension and "even more precise" steering "ensure a clear elevation in dynamic potential, combined with the impressive ride quality as that of its predecessor".
BMW's ConnectedDrive products and services "offer a unique selection of web-based services and innovative driving assistance systems to enhance comfort and improve safety".
Among them, a full-colour windscreen display carries information in the driver's field of vision through which the driver can focus on the road ahead.
Automatic parallel parking will take the embarrassment out of street manoeuvres, parking radar will prevent dings and replacement of the front and rear aprons.

Deworming treatments and microbial infections: good for you, not so good for everyone else
January 15, 2015 November 17, 2015 ~ Betty
On the long list of things that give me the heebie jeebies, parasitic worms are right up there with snake orgies (a uniquely Canadian experience) and house centipedes. Many, but not all, of these worms are intestinal parasites. They latch onto the wall of the intestine and slowly siphon away nutrients, leaving their unassuming hosts weak and malnourished. Left to their own devices, parasitic worms, or helminths, can survive for years inside a host. This is quite astonishing given that our bodies employ a complex immune system to hunt down and destroy invading pathogens.
The key to the helminths' successful survival strategy is their ability to manipulate the host's immune system. Our immune system is like a home surveillance system. Once an intruder trips it off, it blares sirens to alert the owners and sends out 911 calls for backup. Helminths are sneaky thieves that can break into our homes, disable the alarms, and steal our food. Because they've muted the alarm system, our bodies do not recognize that there is an intruder and the intruder becomes the unwanted houseguest that just won't leave.

By dialing down our bodies' immune response, helminth infections also restrict our ability to fight off bacterial and viral infections. This is a particularly important problem in developing countries where helminth infections are endemic and infectious diseases such as HIV and tuberculosis remain prevalent.
In a recent study published in the journal Science, Drs. Vanessa Ezenwa and Anna Jolles from the University of Georgia and Oregon State University showed that treating helminth infections has opposite effects on microbial infections in individuals and populations. The researchers captured and followed 216 wild female African buffalo in Kruger National Park, South Africa. Half of the buffalo received an anthelmintic drug to eliminate and control worm infections while the other half received no treatment.
An African buffalo (Source)
The researchers wanted to know how treatment against parasitic worms would impact microbial infections, particularly tuberculosis caused by the bovine pathogen Mycobacterium bovis. At the beginning of the study, all the buffalo were tuberculosis-free. During the study, 69 buffalo became infected with tuberculosis, 36 from the untreated group and 33 from the treated group. While the rate of infection was similar between the two groups, mortality differed. In the untreated group, 11 of the M. bovis-infected animals died. In the group that received anthelmintic treatment, only 2 animals died. This means that the risk of mortality was roughly nine times higher in the untreated group compared to the treated group. The researchers also found that the animals that received anthelmintic treatment had a stronger immune response to M. bovis infection than the untreated animals, which could explain the differences in survival.
A key aspect of any infectious disease control program is managing disease transmission through a population. One way of measuring disease transmission is to look at the basic reproductive number, R0 (pronounced "R-nought"). As Kate Winslet explained in Contagion, R0 is a calculated prediction of how many new cases of disease are likely to be caused by one infected person. Many different things can affect the R0 of a disease – population size, rate of infection, mortality rate, length of infectious period, etc… When the researchers calculated the R0 for the two groups, they found that there was an almost 8-fold increase in the R0 for the anthelmintic treated group compared to the untreated group.
How can anthelmintic treatment simultaneously reduce individual mortality but worsen disease transmission through a population? Part of the reason is that once they become infected with M. bovis, buffalo can never completely clear the infection. So while anthelmintic treatment improves the survival of M. bovis-infected animals, these animals become life-long carriers of the disease and can continue to spread the bacteria to others. And since treatment does not reduce the risk of infection, this would lead to an overall increase in disease transmission.
In this study, Drs. Ezenwa and Jolles have shown that when it comes to microbial co-infections, anthelmintic treatments are a double-edged sword. The individual benefits of treatment need to be carefully weighed against the potential costs to the population, an important consideration given that anthelmintic treatments are currently being considered as strategies to help manage chronic infections like HIV/AIDS and tuberculosis.

a healthy passion for sport and physical activity throughout life.
There are a specific set of rules that apply to Kids of Steel® events to maximize safety and inclusion. For a complete list, contact your Provincial Triathlon Association. Some of the more important rules are highlighted below.
Athletes may use any type of bike in a KOS event. It is recommended parents get bikes checked for safety (e.g. brake integrity) prior to each KOS event.
Athletes may wear any type of clothing in KOS events as long as they cover their chest and stomach on the bike and run.
Use of wetsuits and certified personal flotation devices in the swim are at the discretion of the race director. Ask BEFORE the event if you have questions.
No aero bars are permitted.
See full KOS rules for wheel and gear recommendations.
* No other clipless pedal systems are permitted for athletes 13 years and younger as of December 31st.
Draft-legal ** aerobars are permitted.
** Aerobars must not extend forward of the brake levers.
** Brake levers and gears MUST be fastened to the handlebars, not aerobars.
Flat pedals and ALL clipless pedal systems are permitted. It is recommended that athletes entering the sport at any age use mountain bike-style pedal systems as they are much safer for transition and learning how to use clipless pedals.
Pedal cages, toe straps (old-style "toe clips"), and aerobars that extend past the brake hoods are NOT permitted at any KOS age.
Did you know that clipless pedals are not a significant advantage in KOS races? The time it takes to change from cycling to running shoes in transition usually cancels out any time advantage gained on the bike segment. Clipless pedals are most valuable in training to teach a proper pedal stroke.
Most bike frames are designed for adults who have very different core-limb proportions than youth. Make sure to get the bike fitted properly when you buy a new one.
Do not ignore complaints of knee pain or discomfort particularly if your athlete is growing. Get it checked out!
The KOS rules were developed to promote SAFETY in training and racing. They are NOT in place to level playing fields or produce success in the short term. Kids of Steel® stresses "Every Finisher Is A Winner". The rules are in place to maximize the chances of every athlete finishing a successful event.
Distance rules and training guidelines have been developed to ensure LONG TERM physical, emotional, and social health of young athletes. They maximize the chance ALL athletes of all abilities, experience levels, and motivations can enjoy participating in triathlon today, tomorrow, and far into the future - whatever level they aspire to.
Event distances in KOS and Youth races promote skill acquisition, speed, and inclusion (everyone can finish). Listed distances are MAXIMUMS in each sport. Athletes can race in shorter divisions or lower age groups*, but they may NOT race up in age or distance.
Ages are based on December 31st of the current year of competition.
See exact event distances on our Triathlon Race Distances page.
It is recommended "first time" events be significantly shorter than the KOS distances.
The following rules apply to all triathlons for youth and adults. All competitors are expected to know the rules and follow them at all events.
Athletes must cover their chest and stomach on the bike and run.
No forward movement using bottom, lane ropes, or walls. Athletes can stop to rest (stand up) but can ONLY move forwards by swimming. No flippers or propulsion devices allowed.
Helmet must be fastened before touching the bike (after swimming). No riding in transition (walk bike to mount line). Helmet must stay done up until after the bike is racked (after cycling).
No drafting (riding right beside or behind someone) in KOS races. Athletes must stay 3 bike lengths behind someone unless they are passing.
No crawling! Walk, jog, or run.

Here, Problem is after installing Kivy through this kivy Is not installed it just shows that your requirements are fullfilled by that command but it still won't Install Kivy... it's fulfilling  temporary Requirement at the time of call of command.
If you use command "kivy --version" you can check kivy is installed or not.

so tell me how to install kivy fully.

All clock repair is done on premises and is guaranteed. Our team of expert and professional clockmakers have over 35 years of experience each which make us one of the leaders in the field of horology. Many people claim to know clock repair but they have been working in other fields and tinkering with clocks. That does not give them the necessary experience to claim that they have been doing this for a long time. Mike has been doing clock repair fulltime for more than 35 years, Ray has been doing it for more than 40 years and Ann has been doing it for more than 15 years. Building upon our reputation for honest, timely, professional clock repair and clock restoration we would like the opportunity to have you as a client of Nashville Clock.
We offer free estimates on all clocks while you wait. You won't have any surprises when you pick up your clock. We will go thru your clock and let you know what needs to be worked on to get your clock back to working order. We warranty all of our work. All clock repair is done on premises and is guaranteed. We have a vast clientele throughout the United States.
We maintain a huge inventory of parts and utilize the best tools and technology available in the trade. Whether you have a clock that runs on batteries or a 100 year old mechanical we can repair it.
We repair all types of clocks: Grandfather, Wall, Mantel, Cuckoo, Indoor/Outdoor, Novelty, Electric, Antique and quartz.
Nashville Clock Shop doesn't just sell clocks, we know them and love them.
We do House calls for maintenance on Grandfather Clocks. Please call us at 615-860-3567 to set up an appointment.
Moving – We will pack your grandfather clock for long distance moves for the movers. We can handle all your local moves. We have a fullsize Transit Van that we can transport your clock and keep it out of the weather and any other debris that is out there.
Recently moved : We will come and unpack your grandfather clock and set it up and oil the movement if needed.
The average repair in shop takes about 4 to 6 weeks, which includes us taking the movement apart and ultrasonic cleaning it. We will then inspect the movement for any worn bushings and if needed we will replace the bushings and polish the pivots.
We give free estimates and we do not start any work without customer approval.

Caroline Flack and Andrew Brady have split up.
Caroline said she was "sad" that she and Andrew had "decided to part ways".
"Unfortunately it was not to be. I wish him all the best. At least there's a villa waiting for me. It's back to the ol' grafting'," she added.
Andrew posted a similar message to his Instagram.
Caroline appeared to respond, posting a crying emoji to her Twitter page.
Say Bonjour to the newest member of our family – Ruby Coco Brady ?
The former X Factor presenter announced the engagement on her Instagram a few months ago, in a post that since appears to have been deleted.
At the time the post received a lot of positive responses, although Caroline did have to defend her fiance from some criticism.
She called out the "weirdos" that were "taking time to write mean comments" about people they didn't know.
Fans have been offering the 37-year-old support on social media.
Awe so sorry to hear this darling. Im an amazing wing woman so if you need me…call me ??
They also haven't missed the opportunity to make a Love Island joke.
Earlier this month Caroline wrote an open letter to Andrew in Cosmopolitan.
"People talk about meeting someone and feeling as though you've known them your whole life. That's what it felt like when I met you," she wrote.
"My life was complete before you came into it – a man doesn't complete your life.

Raise your hand if you have a nut allergy in your house….. keep your hand up if you love nuts but can't cook with them because of a nut allergy….. I am totally with you! My son is allergic to nuts. And I love using chopped pecans or sliced almonds or peanut butter in my cooking. I can't. One day I was looking for a recipe for Asian slaw. Every single one called for peanut butter in the dressing. Every. Single. One. So I created my own so the whole family could enjoy it without a worry. Here's the recipe for peanut free Asian slaw.
This recipe has all of the basics: cabbage, shredded carrots, cilantro and ramen, soy sauce and rice vinegar, etc… But instead of adding peanut butter to the dressing, I left it out and added sesame oil and brown sugar. It gives a little bit of sweetness and some nuttiness without actually using nuts.
Mix together the first 4 ingredients. Or, you can artfully arrange them because this is a really colorful salad. I used the mandarin and the ramen noodles as toppings. The ramen really adds a nice crunch and the mandarin orange slices add some brightness.
Whisk everything together and drizzle over the slaw. Toss together and serve.
This is a very simple, colorful and healthy salad that is full of flavor. Peanut free Asian slaw is a great one to take to your next picnic or BBQ with no worries about nut allergies!


Okay, everyone say it with me now..... TGIF!!! It looks as though the very spring-like weather is going to stick around New England at least through most of the weekend... woo hoo! The kids have been enjoying it as much as they can once the humans get home from work and the extra hour of daylight is a great help.
Yes, that just might be the knitting bag I've always wanted! Stay tuned to read all about it, as well as Fruitables dog treats, The Stitch Collection, Lexie Barnes "Betty" needle case, Big Daddy Biscuits, Vogue Knitting Stitchionary Volume Five (I'll be giving away 2 copies!), Skacel "Not So Plane Knitter's Bag" and more! Speaking of reviews, if you have not yet entered to win a copy of 60 Quick Knits, you still have time!
1. Today I will be watching the clock, waiting for quitting time.
2. You ask why and I say why not?
3. What do you think of this health care bill saga?
5. People say that what we're all seeking is the meaning of life.
6. The image I cherish most is not necessarily one single image, but several of family, friends and happy times.
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to a relaxing evening at home, tomorrow my plans include a day with family and Sunday, I want to watch the Bristol race!
Can't wait for the review of the bag! Have a great weekend.
Oh, you don't even want to know what I think of the misnamed "Health Care" bill, as an employer or as a private taxpayer! So, instead, I'll wish the whole pack a happy springy weekend!
I wish the healthcare bill was less saga and more novelette.
When I saw #4 I though oh no is Starbucks really doing it again. Last year I worked there and it was quite crazy that morning.
They're all adorable and that bag is quite nice too.
Hope you nice weather lasted longer than ours did.


Week LXXII: It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!
The view from my kitchen this morning.
I think the most exciting part about this week is that we can finally play Christmas music! Thanksgiving is over so it is officially time to start the Christmas season.
Tim left on Thursday for Dillingham for wrestling regionals. The tournament took place on Friday. I was planning on meeting them in Dillingham right after school on Friday. Unfortunately, the weather was bad and I was worried about getting stuck, so I stayed in Togiak. I haven't had a chance to get all the details on the tournament. However, one of Tim's wrestlers did make it to state. They will be headed to Nikiski next Wednesday.
Our transportation from the airport: a large moving van.
Indeed, the wrestling team did get stuck. They were supposed to return Saturday morning but didn't make it back until this afternoon. Tim and I were able to exchange a kiss at the airport as he got off the plane returning to Togiak and I got on the plane to leave Togiak. I am chaperoning a student council retreat in Manokotak until Tuesday. We were laughing about being picked up by a moving van at the Manokotak airport. Where else do you get such service?
I'm not really sure what to share about this week. The house got cleaned. The Christmas tree is up. I made fajitas and chicken alfredo . . . yum. Tim and I went to work, as always. We hope you all had a good week as well!

Winning schools in various sports also acknowledged by All Catholic Conference of Miami

During his homily at the All Star Mass for athletes, St. Agnes pastor Father Juan Carlos Paguaga explains that holding a cop of water for a long time is hard to do without help. He compared it to needing a team and counting on teammates to help shoulder the burden.
MIAMI | Why should high school athletes get all the glory?
Although they receive far less coverage, students in Catholic elementary schools also engage in competitive sports organized through the All Catholic Conference of Miami.
As the conference website states, between 1956 and 1960 "there were a handful of schools that played sports against each other." The sports were boys basketball and baseball.
When the Catholic Grade School League — precursor to today's conference — was established in 1965,the charter members were Sts. Peter and Paul, Our Lady of Perpetual Help, St. Rose of Lima, Holy Family, Immaculate Conception, St. John the Apostle, St. Theresa, and St. Mary Cathedral. In 1966, the first girls sport was introduced: volleyball, followed by softball in 1969 and basketball in 1971.

Over 100 middle school athletes from Catholic schools throughout Miami-Dade County, along with their coaches and parents, participated in the All Catholic Conference All Star Mass held at St. Agnes Church in Key Biscayne on May 5.

Today, 27 schools participate in the conference, which has grown to a total of 38 sports for both boys and girls, including cross country, boys and girls flag football, and cheerleading. The conference also instituted a playoff for some sports and has been inducting outstanding leaders to its Coaches Hall of Fame since 1999.
Student athletes also are recognized annually at the conference's All Star Mass, celebrated this year on May 5 at St. Agnes Church in Key Biscayne.

Want to look inexpensively expensive? Ooshey we got you!
No sane person wants to move around naked and we all want to be put on some form of clothing and of course look our best.
You do not have to break the bank, whether you like buying more clothes at lower prices or to by just one once in a while for the price of fifteen clothes, we still got you.
Trends come and go, how do you need to look all expensive at all times and season? That's why we are here with 13 fashion and styling tips to make you look expensive on a tiny budget. Let's get started!
To look inexpensively expensive, you have to have an eagle eye. What am I talking about?
You have to have an eye for luxury-looking high-quality pieces, you need to be able to pay attention to details, let your perfectionist side be awakened.
Then we can start! Mind you, you could spend a lot of money on a clothing item and still might not look well put together if you lack on this attribute.
Simplicity reduces the heaviness of life, fashion is a part of your life. A style is an expression of yourself through how you dress.
Keep it simple. The more simple you dress, the more elevated you'll look. Too much of everything everywhere gives a cheap look. a good approach to this is going monochromatic. You can bet on this one, it gives a totally classic look.
Having a minimalist approach towards style and fashion doesn't mean boring and also doesn't mean you have to be constrained to pale and neutral colors.
This concept means that you should approach your closet with an intentional intent, let your choice of clothes fit your lifestyle, let it express you with an aim of owning high-quality pieces that you love and will last for years. Own fewer clothes that serve a purpose with quality and not so many that look shabby.
For example, if you have 3,000 Naira for a wristwatch, instead of buying 3 wristwatches that look not all put together, buy one that looks classic and expensive. Less is more.
Imagine you open your closet and you see a couple of clothes and pieces that you definitely love, first off, no matter what you pick, it would make you feel confident and amazing.
You would feel less confused about what to wear each time and you would be familiar with what you love and what you don't. This is a great step toward achieving that inexpensively expensive-looking wardrobe.


A RENOWNED professional gambler claims he has been warning Las Vegas casino bosses about the lack of security for years - but was told it would be an "inconvenience".
Million dollar player RJ Cipriani, who has been a professional gambler for decades, said he was told the casino would never add metal detectors or bag checks as it would be inconvenient for high rollers who spent so much cash there.
Cipriani - who goes by the name of Robin Hood 702 - has now lashed out at casino bosses claiming they are to blame for the worst mass shooting in US history because they refused to add simple security checks to their casinos.
He said he warned the FBI, Homeland Security and other federal agencies about the lax security but it "fell on deaf ears".
He told Sun Online: "Since 9/11 I've been telling casino executives - presidents and Vice Presidents of the major casinos in Vegas that they have a security issue.
"I told them people were coming and going as gamblers and walk into casinos with money, drugs, guns, knives and no one is checked.
"It fell on deaf ears.
"They told me the reason why they won't increase security is because it's an inconvenience to their high rollers."
He added: "Rich, privileged high rollers don't want to have their bags checked.
"And they bring millions of dollars to these casinos every day.
"To stay in any of the big resorts in Vegas you have to walk through the casino.
"A simple metal detector or bag check could have prevented this."
He said he had spoken to major resorts and casinos, as well as the FBI, homeland security, TSA, ICE.
Cipriani said: "Casinos attract everyone from the lowest of the low to the highest of the high - so they have a responsibility to make sure people are safe.
"It would have cost them nothing to add security measures - were talking about billion dollar conglomerates.
"To go to an event like a boxing match you have to go through checks why not at the casinos? Anybody can walk in and into the hotels and do whatever they like. There's no protection.
"The casinos should be held accountable for this tragedy in Las Vegas.
"I guarantee you the bell hops would have carried the guns up to his room on the 32nd floor.
"Ten rifles and ammunition is a lot of luggage - it should have set off alarms with security but they turn a blind eye.
"Mandalay Bay security team just fell asleep at the switch."
Suspect Stephen Paddock killed 59 concert goers and injured hundreds more in a hail of bullets from the 32nd floor of Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino on Sunday night in what is the worst mass shooting in US history.
Cipriani said that suspect Paddock was a known gambler in Vegas and had a $50,000 credit line.
He said: "He was a slot player and was a cash and credit players.
"He had a $50,000 credit line at another casino group, which means he was a known gambler so this could have happened at any casino.
"That's why they locked down the Bellagio because he could have had a room there as well as Mandalay Bay.
"He was known as a $25,000 cash player at some resorts - which means he could win or lose $25,000 cash in a day but he also had a $50,000 credit line at another chain of resorts."
A spokesperson for MGM resorts was unable to comment on these specific allegations.
But in a general statement they said: "We are heartbroken for the victims, their families and our community.
"Our primary focus and concern in the hours since the shooting has been cooperating with law enforcement and taking actions to support the victims and their families, our guests and employees."

The dough for an éclair is formed and baked before the inside is filled with a thick cream of any sort-- in fact, you can fill an éclair with chocolate cream, custard, or any other flavour. Once fully formed, an eclair is more often than naught covered in chocolate icing.
Originally from France, éclairs have since grown in popularity and can be found in bakeries and doughnut shops around the world. If you like delicious things, there's a good chance you'll like these.
2. This baking pan comes preloaded! What are you most likely to make with this kitchen item?
Answer: Cupcakes
Mmmmmm...delicious cupcakes. After making the batter, cupcakes are created by filling the baking sheet with special cupcake papers and then filling those with batter (to a certain amount). After baking, they'll end up coming out a stubby-looking muffins.
These make for easy decoration; the best cupcakes are covered in icing and many bakers take pride in crafting something special on top of their baked cake. Lining baking trays with these cups is a great way from creating baked goods that don't stick to the pan; of course that's preventable with good cooking spray.
3. These are biscottis, baked treats often dipped in coffee. The word 'biscotti' actually refers to the process by which they're created. How many times do you bake a biscotti before it's ready?
Answer: Twice
Latin for 'twice-baked', biscotti is a bread snack cooked and cut in long bricks and dried until crunchy. Often served with coffee, they're best-eaten when dipped into a hot beverage as it allows the bread to soften. Although the dish is best known for being made in Italy, there are a number of variations, mostly from across Europe, and many of which contain different ingredients (including raisins and nuts).
Answer: Sugar
Sugar, while delicious, is a relatively crafty carbohydrate. Linked to diabetes and obesity, sugar is a key ingredient in a number of baked goods but tends to get a bad rap. Granulated sugar also comes in a powdered/iced form for use in confections and other dishes. Oddly enough, sugar substitutes like aspartame are regarded as less healthy for consumers; might as well just go for the real thing-- in moderation, of course.
5. Bacon and cheese muffins-- seriously. Sometimes baked goods can be savoury. What does this mean?
Answer: The food is salty, not sweet
Savoury desserts/baked goods are certainly just as enjoyable as sweet ones provided you don't muck up the ingredients. Yes, this means that even bacon-cheese muffins can fit on a table. Savoury typically means that the food is not sweet. Instead, it has a spicy or salty taste typically uncommon in something like a baked dish.
A cheese tea biscuit, for instance, would be savoury. So would cake containing black pepper (it exists!). Some may consider it a bit experimental, but it's a treat for the palate!
6. Delicious, moist, and chocolatey. What's the name of this fiendish cake?
Answer: Devil's Food Cake
A Devil's Food Cake is the polar opposite (or so it seems) of an Angel Food Cake, which is typically light, airy, and spongy. A Devil's Food Cake is made with chocolate, is often dense and layered (with icing between the different layers), and is wonderfully rich and fudgy.
This cake is often closely linked to the Red Velvet Cake, another rich dish though made with red colouring or beetroot. In both cases, the origins of the names reflect their colouring.
Ginger cookies/ginger snaps are both spicy and sweet because they often contain ginger, nutmeg, and other spices in addition to sugar and molasses. Much like gingerbread, the cookies can be decorated to the baker's delight (or even build structures too small for regular people to live in) though ginger snaps are usually simply adorned with sugar, which gives a sweet edge to the otherwise savoury treat.
In the UK, another type of ginger snap is the Cornish fairing. Delicious!
8. Which of these types of breads is dark and made with rye flour?
Answer: Pumpernickel
Bread is perhaps the most basic of baked foods. Made with leavened dough, bread is a staple in most diets and has been made for centuries. Baked until risen, bread usually features an outer crust and a softer inside; some are lighter than others, some are softer, some contain other ingredients (eg. raisins, cinnamon, nuts, etc.). Pumpernickel is a darker bread made with rye flour. Often served with a dip or spread, it's quite dense and expensive compared to more common, white loaves. Pumpernickel originated in Germany.
Even though this unique dish isn't made with too many baked elements, it is popped into the oven. This dish requires a scoop of ice cream which, after being covered in meringue, is placed into an oven and cooked until golden-brown. The ice cream doesn't melt during this time because the meringue cooks around it; it's served hot and crispy on the outside and cool on the inside. It can also be served tableside, flambé, if soaked in alcohol.
Would you believe that the Baked Alaska is the state food of Alaska? Well, it's not. Sorry about that.
10. This baked delight is a Black Forest cake. From which country is it commonly said that the cake originated?
Answer: Germany
The Black Forest region is found in the area surrounding Baden-Baden in Germany, and while the cake didn't specifically come from that region, it did originate in Germany. The name has to do with the addition of cherries to the cake; Black Forest refers to a cherry liqueur. Like a Devil's Food Cake, the Black Forest is baked to have dark, chocolatey layers split by icing of any sort (usually chocolate or vanilla).
It's topped with icing and cherries.

Ben Franklin once said, "A penny saved is a dollar earned." Here are some tips for saving some pennies and maybe a few dollars by reducing the costs of those supplies for school or the office.
Tip 1. Take inventory of what supplies you already have and keep them all in a designated area, so you can find them when you need them.
Tip 2. A three-ring binder from the last school year or tossed by a business or one from a conference can be salvaged and disguised if necessary with stickers or contact paper.
Tip 3. Many businesses give away pens, pencils and other school supply goodies. Be sure to stash these with your supplies.
Tip 4. In late summer, stores offer sales, rebates and coupons on school and office supplies. Try to stock up on what you will need, to avoid paying full price later.
Tip 5. Children usually come home from that first day back at school with a list of needed supplies. Avoid frustration and wasted money by waiting for that list before purchasing more specific school supplies; otherwise, you may find yourself with unneeded items or items that aren't quite the right thing.
Tip 6. If you will need a backpack, check out garage sales during the summer. Be sure to buy a sturdy, good quality one, however, because these items take a lot of abuse during a school year.
Tip 8. Check out the prices of the office supplies you need at the discount clubs such as Sam's or Coscos. Sometimes, you can find good prices on office needs there.
