VIDEO REPLAY: Three-Way $1 Win + Two-Way $25,000 Win In Showcase Showdown on “The Price Is Right” What a way to end a premiere week for the long-running CBS daytime game show. Not only were all six pricing games won on Friday’s show, history was made once again in the Showcase Showdown. Today’s second Showcase Showdown was a truly insane and incredible moment you had to see to believe. After Wilbert Powell, Charlotte Sosebee, and Zacharia Whitaker all spun $1.00 on their first spin, Powell and Whitaker managed to tie again with their lucky $1.00 spins on their bonus turns. A total of $80,000 (Sosebee: $10,000; Powell and Whitaker: $35,000) was given away in the Showcase Showdown alone, making it the most money the show has ever given away
The need among Americans to be diverted in ever more imaginative ways -- through high-thrill parks, virtual reality arcades, and theme restaurants, plays right into the hands of Dave Corriveau and Buster Corley, co-founders and CEO’s of Dave and Busters. The duo’s 50,000 square foot complexes include pool hall, an eye popping, cutting edge midway arcade, a formal restaurant, a casual diner, a sports bar and a nightclub rolled into one sprawling complex. In business since 1990, this is a high energy, highly efficient operation that’s comparable to a Vegas extravaganza. As a matter of fact there are even “for fun” cashless blackjack tables, with fake $10,000 chips. Pricey, but not outrageous, and you get value for your money.
The government jury honored her $150,000 in pay and an extra $999,000 in reformatory harms. Tim Barry, lawyer for the server, tells the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette he trusts the gambling club let the client return on the grounds that he was a hot shot. Jack Horner, an agent for the club, says it can't help contradicting the decision and is considering

Before taking the StrengthsFinder® assessment I didn’t know what type of leader I was, but I felt I had leadership traits that I could not describe. After answering several questions from the Clifton StrengthsFinder® 2.0, I found out my top five strengths. These strengths consist of individualization, arranger, learner, input and responsibility. The purpose of this paper is to go over my top five strengths to talk about which four domains of leadership these strengths fall under, how class material is applied, and the actions to best utilize my strengths.
On the night of October 1, 1910 at 1:07 a.m., the Los Angeles Times building in Los Angeles, California was attacked by two brothers, James B. McNamara (“J.B.”) and John J. McNamara (“J.J.”). J.B. left a suitcase of dynamite next to barrels of flammable printer ink in the “Ink Alley”, a narrow alley in between the main Times building and the Times annex. The dynamite had a detonator connected to a windup clock, which was set to explode at 1 a.m. He also left bombs, similar to those in the “Ink Alley”, that were also set to explode ay 1 a.m. next to Times publisher Harrison Gray Otis’ home and the secretary of MMA Felix Zeehandelaar’s home. The bomb went off at 1:07 a.m. outside the three-story Los Angeles Times Building, causing the side of

The senior bought a super-7 ticket on July 5, 2001, and went to another store to check the ticket where again he had won a free ticket (National Post). He played encore this time, a few weeks later, on July 27, 2001, he returned to the store to see if either of his tickets were winners (National Post). The clerk had checked the tickets through the lottery terminal and Mr. Edmonds was told he won a free ticket again (National Post). The clerk and her husband went to the OLG Toronto Prize office to claim the prize money as their own a few days later (National Post). The OLG had asked for evidence that the couple had only played the ticket (National Post). “It turned out the clerk and her husband, who were friends of Mr. Edmonds', had tricked him into handing over a few of his old tickets under the guise he would be entered in a special promotion at the variety store. (National Post)” The OLG had given the $250,000 prize money to the clerk and her husband seeing the evidence. Mr. Edmonds then called the police on March 1, 2002. The couple was charged of theft over $5,000 and the charges were dropped 3 years later when Mr. Edmonds settled a $150,000 civil claim with the couple. (National

As a society of people with different cultures, backgrounds and ideas, progress and civilization lead to development in cultural, social and intellectual advancement. Nowadays the American Vision has altered immensely from the American Vision during the 1893 Worlds fair. Since the time of the fair races and genders that did not fit into the “ideal society” have integrated making a substantial impact on our society. The transformation our nation went through shows great progress of civil obedience that was once uncanny. Consequently, many years ensuing the conversion of the American Vision has directed our nation down a more prosperous path. Looking back, we cannot help ourselves, too wonder, what would our society have been like today if

Gay marriage is a huge issue in the United States, some states have allowed it after taking to time to really see that all people deserve to have their own rights, but my state, Indiana, still will not allow gays to marry. They say that it is not the right way to live your life. The real question is what is the “right” way to live life? We all are different in our own ways, whether it may be color, religion, or simple things like our hobbies. That is what makes us such great country. We have our freedom to express who we are, but the gays do not because the older generations do not approve?
This was the happiest I had been since my dads death. My mom was extremely proud of me and we had a party. We invited Jamal and some other neighbors around. That summer I started talking to Jamal more and I was at a great spot in my life. A few days after the party I started thinking about what I wanted to do with my life and the first thing that came into my mind was being an entrepreneur and owning my own business. I started thinking of things that I could make into a business that would make a difference. I decided that I would try and create an app that would put all of the jobs around you that have an open spot into one place. I thought that this would be good because there is a ton of people that don’t have jobs in Compton and in

I have been avoiding writing this post. There is something about the first discovery that is more difficult to discuss than any other subsequent discovery. It is deeply personal, and even though it has almost been 11 years it is like a movie that I have seen & re-live just about every day since. As the years have gone on, my view of that day changes. I can watch it more detached than in the initial years. This my attempt to re tell that day as best as I can.
