I figured I'd try something new last night on the BBQ.

You take boneless, skinless chicken breast filets and flatten them out a bit.  I chopped up some jalapeno, and mixed it in with some creme cheese.  Put a ball of the mixture in the middle of the chicken breast.  Wrapped them up and then wrapped them in bacon with some toothpicks to keep them together.

They can be a bit of a pain on the BBQ, but if you keep any eye on them, it's not all that bad.

Low heat is the key to cook the chicken without burning the bacon.  After some trial and error with a a few, I found that using the top warming wrack to crisp the bacon a bit worked good without over cooking the chicken.



I've seen some of those before with ham but those look delicious
Bacon and meat on the grill perhaps even put some cheese and grill it
That or chicken as you used

Thanks for the good idea a good way to make something in the summer while saving a bit of cash
Darn Meat prices won't get in the way when it comes to the grill Tongue

damn, i lost my bet again
why must 0-0 Brazil Vs Mexico, i guess Brazil can win and being first team going to next round Sad

Well right now in terms of points both Brazil and Mexico have 4 each since they tied and won their previous games
I guess that gives the two losing teams with 0 points a chance to catch up
Since its 3 for a win
1 each for a tie
0 For a Loss
At least I think that's how it works and 1 point is lost in a tie.
yups youre right next match between Cameroon Vs Croatia will be determinant of Brazil and Mexico if one of them win so we have 3 team with same chance to move to next round
so the final game will be more interesting, but i hope their get draw  Wink

Thanks for confirming well the Brazilians are in a good position for now they won't be sweating bullets today
But it would be a giant protest if they got knocked out in this round of the tourny in the World cup
Looking forward to the next set of games Smiley

I predict low share prices for AM in the near future, maybe record lows... not for bad news but because I imagine many AM investors will want to get into DataTank... and many of us already used all our available funds to purchase cheep AM shares.

There seems to be an appeal with DataTank, as they're working closely with AM. However, are current shareholders willing to let go of their shares for something that is farther down the line?

Dividend Payments
Profits will be paid weekly in form of dividends. First payments are expected when the initial hardware is deployed, 3-6 months after successful fund raising.

Perhaps I'm reading it wrong but it seems like quite the trade off with 3-6 months later, with the assumption that AM will start dividends sooner than that. There's lots to consider.

There are two ways to play this

One bet on the chip sales and gamble on the payments then do a switch
Or jump into the Datatank early and assume the price will rise as the dividends approach

Both strategies have a chance of burning so some people may just play it safe and do a 50 50 approach or a ratio more favorable to them.

Bitcoin is rapidly growing within Argentina as things stand
Non repayment of govy debt will accelerate adoption once the new dose of fx pain kicks in

could this possibly be the reason for today's jump in price? it went up $20, at least so far.

The Silk Road auction was probably factored in and the price is going back to its regular rhythm
Although one could easily make a bet on the price dropping near to the 26th again when the actual auction occurs for those Bitcoins.
Anyways I hope that Argentina starts using Bitcoin in significant scale they need a new solution to their monetary problems and a few good entrepreneurs to build it.

Being tied up with mass production of Rocket Box lately, we hereby would like to extend our apology for not updating the progress in time.

Here are the main updates:

1. We are still making every effort to produce miners. Rocket Box and R-Box are our key products at present. For R-Box, another 2K production planning is expected to be completed by this week. The first batch of Rocket Box has 2K units. So far, the sales of Rocket Box is basically satisfactory. We will start shipping on June 25.
P.S.: Due to production issues, RX-BOX will be delayed indefinitely. Customers who joined Project R60 will receive 6 units of Rocket Box instead of 4 units of RX-BOX.(For domestic China customers: 3 units of Rocket Box instead of 2 units of RX-BOX)

2. We have been developing our own stock exchange platform, of which basic functions have been finished at present. Partial functions need to be optimized. In consideration of calls for share exchange, in addition Havelock has always been in active touch with us, we decide to list RM shares on Havelock. Before that,shareholders who want to trade on havelock please follow instructions below to help us to list,and submit following information to transfer@rockminer.com :

3. Due to fierce competition of miner selling, profit has been greatly compressed. Dividends for all shareholders will be delayed. We have to give priority to ensure the subsequent production plan. We believe no one wants to see that ROCKMINER has no fund for further production after we distribute dividends. Time for dividends may be delayed until July

P.S. We updated the running command of OC R-BOX:

https://github.com/rockminerinc/cgminer-for-R-BOX/blob/master/handbook.md

Thanks for the updates its good to hear the Rocket Box is doing good, not sure what happened to the RX box but its too bad that you had production issues but props for compensated for it.

Havelock listing is great news for shareholders so it will be nice to be able to get these shares, not expecting dividends for a while but as long as production doesn't get stalled its all good.


7908  Economy / Economics / Re: Is 1 bitcoin a decent and good investment? on: June 17, 2014, 11:59:06 PM
I don't think a 1 BTC investment will ever make you rich, but it's still better than keeping that money in the bank if you're not using it. Plus, it does have the potential to multiply in value, so maybe that 1 BTC might be worth 10 times as much as it is today in a few years.

That said it will beat a bond for the amount of risk involved by far
It may get a 300 to 500% return over a few years comparable to a high risk stock but unlike a stock you can use it to purchase products goods and services as well Smiley

From a purely offensive type of game with high goals
To a bout of 0 to 0 matches and low goals
The world cup sure is moving around I wonder if this one will also become a scoreless game

Since it uses AM chips and pending a FC confirmation this is worth a serious consideration

7912  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Mt. Gox - probably the result of a “massive theft” according to court papers on: June 17, 2014, 10:37:31 PM
Mtgox coins were lost in the script somewhere but I think they recovered some of them.
Anyways Keeples is still in trouble Smiley

Mt. Gox in February sought court protection in Japan after losing 850,000 bitcoins, then valued at about $473 million. Customers lost about 750,000 and Mt. Gox lost about 100,000 of its own. The company later found 200,000 in an old-format digital wallet.

So there is still something to claim

Wow I just received a beautiful explanation by BFL on why I got banned from their forum...



LOL... Now tell me they don't just give a fuck about their customers!

I cannot count how many times I was banned from the BFL Forums. Consider it a badge of honor.

That is an impressive way to say
We hear what your saying but were not going to say why your not allowed to hang out here.
Congrats on getting that badge though BFL badge of honor indeed.
7914  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Argentina, the next Cyprus ? on: June 17, 2014, 10:27:34 PM
There is another topic on this
But more than one on the topic doesn't hurt so yes I think it could be a possibility
Countries that are weak in the international financial system may look to diversify their holdings to a basket not controlled by a central banking system or subject to heavy rules in order to get more money for their economy at the cost of their citizens needs (World Bank)
So there is room for Bitcoin here Smiley

Hasn't Argentina defaulted a few times now
Or am I mixing it up with another state nope looks at the link and thinks their is a place called the Foreign Debt Museum
That said it looks like these bonds will become Junk soon

I was thinking ha-ha this is going to be an Android Phone ain't it
But I was pleasantly surprised I hope he enjoyed it Smiley

LOL! We are huge Apple fanatics, so you would never see an Android ANYTHING in our household!  Grin

So relieved that Apple has lifted the ban on Bitcoin apps, because we were really dreading the possibility of having to switch to Android just to get a native Bitcoin wallet app.

I feel for you on that one unless you had a working app you couldn't get a new bitcoin app
There was a bit of a bypass though in that you could get it in the unofficial app store but its much nicer to get it on the main ecosystem as well
No need to shoot those poor phones with snipers for a Nexus 5 ^_^

My boyfriend Scott was very excited about making his first Bitcoin purchase at the New York Bitcoin Fair this weekend, so he made this entertaining video:

Enjoy! Smiley

p.s. I can also confirm that the ice cream sandwich was DELICIOUS!! Smiley

Perhaps not afraid but concerned

That's neat it provides the convenience of not having to carry a large amount of cash out of the casino with you
Just convert it to Bitcoins put in the QR code and leave without a concern

Anyways as waldox mentioned you can get a debit card with Cavirtex that you can use anywhere so its like cash
Only a matter of time till we get Bitcoin Slot machines and instead of credits you can play with Bitcoins and send the remaining balance to cash XD
Or send it to yourself for that micropenny hehe
