Chef Jay’s Tri-O-Plex High Protein Food Bar 12 Bars
January 172009
p A satisfying snack that can go anywhere. A whole grain protein bar. 30 Grams of protein. Great taste. Soft moist. 3 Sourced protein (TRI). Whole oats. Meal Replacement. High fiber. After cooking for the hotels of Las Vegas with healthy style bakery goods. One item was a health bar made of oats, raisins and honey. Soon I started getting calls from people outside the Las Vegas area who wanted me to ship them my delicious bars. I have since devoted my life to producing the best tasting, healthiest bats available. I still make them myself (with some help from my team) in the heart of Las Vegas, although I have since moved out of that 700 sq ft muffin shop and into that dream kitchen I have aways wanted. I hope you enjoy eating them as much as I enjoy making them. /p p Nutrition Facts Serving Size 1 bar Servings Per Container 1 Amount Per Serving % Daily Value Calories 420 Calories from Fat 140 Total Fat 16 g 25% Saturated Fat 3 g 16% Cholesterol 0 mg 0% Sodium 130 mg 5% Potassium 275 mg 8% Total Carbohydrate 45 g 15% Dietary Fiber 6 g 24% Sugars 16 g Protein 30 g Calcium 60 mg 6% Iron 3 mg 2% Vitamin E 0 IU 2% Magnesium 36 mg 12% Niacin 3 mg 12% Folic Acid 15 ug 4% Phosphorous 115 mg 16% B12 15 ug 18% *percent Daily Values are based on a 2,000 calorie diet. /p p Ingredients: CJ Protein Blend (Soy Protein Isolate, Whey Protein Isolate, Milk Protein Isolate), Fruit Blend (Fruit Juice, Natural Grain Dextrin), Glucose Syrup, Water, Whole Grain Rolled Oats, Peanut Butter, Peanut Flour, Chocolate Chips, Peanuts, Peanut Oil, Vegetable Glycerin, Oat Flour, Honey, Natural and Artificial Flavors (Peanut Flavor).

One of a Kind - The Rise and Fall of Stuey Ungar (Paperback)
January 152009
Stuey Ungar, the son of a Lower East Side bookie, grew up in a New York of the 1950s and the ’60s that was straight out of Damon Runyon. By his early teens, he had dropped out of high school and was spending most of his time in the city’s underground card rooms. So prodigious was his talent for playing gin rummy that he soon found himself bankrolled by memebers of the Genovese crime family. After thrashing every top gin player on the East Coast, he was forced to broaden his horizons- traveling around the country to find opponents and also learning other card games, including poker. p At twenty-one, he moved to Las Vegas for good and quickly found mentors in poker legends such as Jack ‘Treetop’ Straus, ‘Amarillo Slim’ Preston, Doyle Brunson and Chip Reese, who embraced the skinny five-foot five kid with the Rimbaud aura. Soon enough, Ungar was playing in the biggest games at the famous Dunes poker room, learning the finer points of the game at incredible speed. p In 1980, competing in his second tournament ever and playing a game- no-limit Texas Hold’em- he’d just learned, he shocked the poker universe by winning the World Series of Poker. He would go on to win the event a record three times. p In One of a Kind, authors Nolan Dalla and Peter Alson tell the startling tale of a man who managed to win millions of dollars and live the highest of high-roller lives without ever quite understanding or respecting the value of money. Whether tossing away his winnings at the reacetrack or on a single roll of the dice, Ungar was notorious for gambling every single dollar in his pocket on a daily basis. The risk that he embodied in his gambling carried over to his personal life. He had no concept of night or day. He didn’t own a wristwatch, didn’t have a bank account and for years had no home address or personal possessions. For all his gambling successes, at the end of his life he bounced between hotel rooms, casinos and crack houses, dependent upon the kindness of friends and

“Mirage Hotel Suite”, Las Vegas
January 72009
I just got back from another 6 days in Vegas, so here’s another of my “Wandering Around” videos. What was especially fun this trip, was that Vegas had a rare snowstorm go through the area during my visit that set Vegas records for the most snowfall ever recorded from a December storm . . . thankfully I decided to take my SUV on this trip instead of my motorcycle! (it’s a drag putting snow chains on a bike! LOL) The new snow record for this December storm was 3.6 inches of snow, which is, of course, laughably LOW for winter type storms in MOST states, but by desert Vegas storm standards, this one set the record! LOL
The Mirage suites on the Penthouse floors total 1,251 square feet each for the one bedroom suites, and include a whirlpool tub, living room, dining room, bar area, walk in closet, wall to wall and floor to ceiling windows, and for easily entertained technology nuts like me, I loved how the bedroom TV came out of a cabinet when you click the “On” button on the TV remote.
The song for the video is “The Weight” by The Band.
