Amanita persicina

Amanita persicina, commonly known as the peach-colored fly agaric, is a basidiomycete fungus of the genus Amanita with a peach-colored center. Until c. 2015, the fungus was believed to be a variety of A. muscaria.
A. persicina is distributed in eastern North America. It is both poisonous and psychoactive.
Amanita persicina was formerly treated as a variety of A. muscaria (the fly agaric) and it was classified as A. muscaria var. persicina. Recent DNA evidence, however, has indicated that A. persicina is better treated as a distinct species, and it was elevated to species status in 2015 by Tulloss & Geml.
The cap is 4–13 centimetres (1+1⁄2–5 inches) wide, hemispheric to convex when young, becoming plano-convex to plano-depressed in age. It is pinkish-melon-colored to peach-orange, sometimes pastel red towards the disc. The cap is slightly appendiculate. The volva is distributed over the cap as thin pale yellowish to pale tannish warts; it is otherwise smooth and subviscid, and the margin becomes slightly to moderately striate in age. The flesh is white and does not stain when cut or injured. The flesh has a pleasant taste and odor.
The gills are free, crowded, moderately broad, creamy with a pale pinkish tint, and have a very floccose edge. They are abruptly truncate.
Amanita persicina spores are white in deposit, ellipsoid to elongate, infrequently broadly ellipsoid, rarely cylindric, inamyloid, and are (8.0) 9.4–12.7 (18.0) x (5.5) 6.5–8.5 (11.1) μm.
The stipe is 4–10.5 cm long, 1–2 cm wide, and more or less equal or narrowing upwards and slightly flaring at the apex. It is pale yellow in the superior region, tannish white below, and densely stuffed with a pith. The ring is fragile, white above and yellowish below, and poorly formed or absent. Remnants of the universal veil on the vasal bulb as concentric rings are fragile or absent.
This species contains variable amounts of the neurotoxic compound ibotenic acid and the psychoactive compound muscimol.
A. persicina is found growing solitary or gregariously. It is mycorrhizal with conifers (Pine) and deciduous (Oak) trees in North America. It often fruits in the fall, but sometimes in the spring and summer in the southern states. The fungus is common in the southeast United States, from Texas to Georgia, and north to New Jersey.
A. persicina is both poisonous and psychoactive if not properly prepared by parboiling. Pending further research, it should not be eaten.
Mushroom diet

Mushroom diet is an umbrella term for diets with significant amounts of mushrooms.
A mushroom-only diet for humans is considered unrealistic due to insufficient calorie intake. The term mushroom diet can mean:
Higher mushroom consumption is associated with reduced breast cancer risk and reduction in mean blood pressure.
Dr. Joseph Schwarcz points out that many of the studies showing the health benefits of eating mushrooms have significant flaws. It is often not taken into account what other fruits or vegetables the subjects eat; some studies have been conducted only in Asia, where people have specific eating habits.
The mushroom diet of M-plan diet type has been criticized as a fad diet not based on scientific data; the results of following it will depend mainly on other foods.
Wild edible plants of Israel and Palestine

Wild edible plants and fungi in the regions of Israel and Palestine have been used to sustain life in periods of scarcity and famine, or else simply used as a supplementary food source for additional nourishment and pleasure. The diverse flora of Israel and Palestine offers a wide range of plants suitable for human consumption, many of which have a long history of usage in the daily cuisines of its native peoples.
An Israeli law (33A) provides for the preservation of protected natural objects of value. The law includes a list of protected sites, plants, and animals. The law encourages the regulation of the conservation of wild plants in general, and prohibits picking, trading or causing any other damage to protected wild plants.
The local population has, traditionally and in various times of its settlement, made use of these plants, which they gathered for human consumption, whether to be eaten fresh or by steeping them in hot water, or by cooking, or by making use of them as a spice or condiment. All plants herein named are without regulation and can be utilised by the public, unless otherwise noted as protected under Israeli law.
German orientalist Gustaf Dalman (1855–1941) stated of foraging in Palestine, "[as] for all plants, the young growths of spring are used; for the thistles usually only the core and the stem." Foraging requires careful identification to avoid handling and/or eating noxious species. Some edible plants have parts that are allergenic or unfit for any human consumption, while some may require cooking.
In a survey conducted among Arabs in the West Bank, the five most frequently mentioned wild herbs and leaf vegetables praised for their taste are, in their order of preference: wild marjoram, three-lobed sage, mallows, cyclamen, and tumble thistle.
Herbs, grasses, fungi and shrubs
Edible species include herbs, grasses, fungi, shrubs, and trees.
Trees Many different fruit trees (e.g. grapes, figs, dates, olives, walnuts, plums, almonds, etc.) were cultivated in the country. Some of these trees and vines can still be found in abandoned villages and state-owned properties, which make them accessible to all. Rarer varieties of fruit trees, such as wild medlars (Cotoneaster nummularia) and wild cherries (Cerasus prostrata), can be found in elevations of around 1,700 metres (5,600 ft) on Mount Hermon. Still, wild edible fruit trees are plenteous all throughout Israel and Palestine, of which these are the most common in their geographic regions:

Orak-arik

Orak-arik adalah sejenis makanan yang umumnya terbuat dari bahan-bahan (biasanya telur) yang diaduk, dikocok, dicampur dengan aneka bahan pelengkap dan ditumis sehingga menciptakan makanan yang menampilkan kesan "berantakan", "terpecah-belah" dan "tidak beraturan".
Orak-arik berasal dari bahasa Jawa yang berati berantakan. Dalam bahasa inggris makanan orak arik selalu memiliki julukan "scrambled" di depan nama makanannya, yang juga berarti "berantakan".
Telur orak-arik (bahasa Inggris: scrambled eggs) adalah makanan yang terbuat dari telur (biasanya telur ayam) diaduk atau dikocok bersama dalam wajan atau penggorengan saat dipanaskan dengan lembut, biasanya ditambahkan garam, mentega, dan bahan lainnya yang bervariasi.
Orak-arik kubis adalah makanan yang berasal dari pengembangan makanan telur orak-arik, jika telur orak-arik biasa hanya terbuat dari satu bahan utama saja, yaitu telur, berbeda dengan orak-arik kubis yang dapat terbuat dari berbagai bahan seperti telur yang ditambahkan dengan irisan kubis, wortel, bawang putih, bawang merah, seledri, cabai, kembang kol hingga brokoli.
Orak-arik tempe adalah makanan yang terbuat tempe yang dipotong-potong kecil dan ditumis serta diaduk dengan bumbu-bahan tambahan. Masyarakat Indonesia lebih mengenalnya dengan orek tempe. Orak-arik tempe dibagi menjadi dua variasi, yang pertama yaitu orak arik tempe kering, yaitu orak-arik tempe yang dimasak dimasak dengan kecap dan gula jawa sampai gula jawa dan kecap tersebut meng-karamelisasi dan menyalut irisan tempe sehingga menampilkan kesan kecoklatan dan kering. Kedua ada orak-arik tempe basah, yaitu orak-arik tempe yang pemasakannya hampir mirip dengan orak arik tempe kering, bedanya kecap dan gula jawa cenderung tidak meng-karamelisasi sepenuhnya, sehingga kecap dan gula yang belum terkaramelisasi menjadi kuah makanan itu sendiri (maka dari itu dinamakan "basah").
Tebu telur

Tebu telur (Saccharum edule) dikenal juga dengan nama terubuk atau tebu telor adalah jenis sayur-sayuran yang mirip dengan tebu. Bagian tumbuhan yang dimanfaatkan sebagai sayuran adalah pucuknya. Namun, bunganya juga dimanfaatkan sebagai sayuran. Tetapi, pucuknya kelihatan aneh karena begitu sudah dewasa, pucuknya tersebut membengkak. Begitu dikupas, ternyata tebu telur tersebut berisi semacam ekor yang berwarna putih kekuning-kuningan, seperti sekumpulan telur ikan. Karena itu, ia disebut tebu telur (ikan).
Di Indonesia, tebu telur diketahui dengan nama-nama berdasarkan daerah dan bahasa daerah di Indonesia seperti:
Cuckold

Cuckold adalah sebuah panggilan untuk suami dari istri yang berselingkuh, sedangkan sebutan istri dari suami yang berzina adalah cuckquean. Dalam biologi, cuckold merujuk pada laki-laki yang tanpa sadar merawat anak yang secara genetik bukan keturunannya. Seorang suami yang menyadari dan mentolerir perselingkuhan istrinya kadang-kadang disebut wittol atau wittold.
Kata cuckold berasal dari burung cuculidae, mengacu pada habitatnya yang bertelur di sarang burung lain. Persamaan ini umum dalam cerita rakyat abad pertengahan, sastra, dan ikonografi.
Penggunaan ke dalam bahasa Inggris pertama kali muncul sekitar tahun 1250 dalam puisi debat abad pertengahan. Tulisan Shakespeare sering merujuk pada cuckold, dengan beberapa karakternya mencurigai mereka telah berselingkuh.
Kata itu sering kali menyiratkan bahwa sang suami tertipu; dia tidak menyadari ketidaksetiaan istrinya dan mungkin tidak tahu sampai kedatangan atau pertumbuhan seorang anak yang jelas bukan miliknya (seperti burung kukuk).
Pada 1520 menandakan pertama kalinya kemunculan kata wittol, yang mengacu pada seorang pria yang sadar dan berdamai dengan ketidaksetiaan istrinya.
Istilah 'cuckold' kini semakin banyak digunakan oleh pasangan gay untuk menyebut pria gay yang pasangan atau suaminya melakukan aktivitas seksual dengan pria atau wanita lain. Alat lain seperti pengurung penis yang dapat dikunci dapat diterapkan oleh pasangan kepada pasangan yang selingkuh dan terbukti tidak setia sering disebut 'pengurung cuckold'.
Berbeda dengan definisi tradisional dari istilah tersebut, dalam fetish seksual penggunaan cuckold (juga dikenal sebagai "cuckolding fetish") dan terlibat dalam "perselingkuhan" seksual pasangannya; istri yang senang "cuckolding" suaminya disebut "cuckolddress" jika laki-laki lebih penurut. Pria dominan yang terlibat dengan pasangan cuckold disebut "bull".
Jika pasangan dapat menjaga fantasi di ranjang, atau mencapai kesepakatan di mana selingkuh dalam kenyataan tidak merusak hubungan, mereka dapat mencobanya. Seperti tindakan seksual lainnya kecenderungan ini dapat meningkatkan hubungan seksual antar pasangan. Namun, pendukung utamanya keseluruhan selalu orang yang dipermalukan. Para cuckold meyakinkan kekasihnya untuk berpartisipasi dalam fantasi agar dapat menyenangkan mereka, meskipun "cuckold" lain mungkin lebih memilih kekasih mereka yang memulai terlebih dahulu. Fantasi tidak bekerja sama sekali jika cuckold dipermalukan di luar keinginan mereka.
Psikologi menganggap fetishisme cuckold sebagai varian dari sadomasokisme, dengan cuckold memperoleh kesenangan karena dipermalukan. Melalui bukunya berjudul Masokisme dan Diri, psikolog Roy Baumeister mengajukan analisis Teori Diri bahwa cuckolding (atau secara khusus, semua masokisme) adalah cara melarikan diri dari kesadaran diri, pada saat kesadaran diri menjadi beban, seperti munculnya ketidakmampuan untuk peka. Menurut teori ini, rasa sakit fisik atau mental dari masokisme menjauhkan perhatian dari diri, yang diinginkan pada saat "rasa bersalah, kecemasan, dan ketidakamanan", atau pada saat lain ketika kesadaran diri menjadi tidak menyenangkan.
Mi celor

Mi celor adalah hidangan mi yang berasal dari Kota Palembang, Sumatera Selatan, Indonesia. Kata "celor" dalam bahasa Melayu Palembang bermakna direndam ke dalam air panas (seduh), kemudian mi dicampur kuah santan dan kaldu udang yang kental dan gurih dan disajikan dengan pelengkap seperti telur rebus, tauge, dan kucai. Ukuran mi yang digunakan lebih besar daripada mi pada umumnya, seperti mi aceh atau udon dari Jepang.
Asal usul mi celor tidak diketahui dengan pasti, tapi diketahui bahwa mi berasal dari Tionghoa, bisa jadi mi celor adalah perpaduan dari hidangan Melayu dan Tionghoa. Kata "celor" dalam bahasa Melayu dialek Palembang artinya dicelup-celupkan ke dalam air panas. Hal ini merujuk ke cara penyajian mi yang dicelupkan ke air panas sebelum dihidangkan.
Mi celor menggunakan mi kuning atau mi telur. Ukuran mi besar dan lebar seperti mi yang digunakan untuk mi aceh atau udon. Mi dicelup sebentar ke air panas agar teksturnya lebih lembut lalu disiram kuah kental. Mi dengan kuah kental ini mirip dengan lo mie dari Tiongkok. Kuah ini dibuat dengan kaldu yang berasal dari udang atau ebi, lalu dicampur dengan santan, susu, tepung terigu, dan bumbu lainnya seperti merica, garam, gula, dan penyedap rasa, sehingga warnanya putih kekuningan dan teksturnya kental. Telur rebus, udang, ayam, kucai, dan tauge dapat ditambahkan sebagai pelengkap. Mi disajikan dalam keadaan panas dan dapat ditambahkan sambal, bawang goreng, dan irisan daun bawang.
Masyarakat Palembang pada umumnya mengonsumsi mi celor pada pagi hari untuk sarapan. Mi celor dapat dijumpai dengan mudah di kota Palembang, meski masih sulit ditemui di kota besar lainnya.
Mi celor mengandung karbohidrat, protein, vitamin, dan mineral. Hidangan ini dapat menjadi sumber karbohidrat pengganti nasi. Protein didapatkan dari sejumlah pelengkap seperti udang, ayam, dan telur. Vitamin dan mineral didapat dari sayuran pelengkap.
Kontraksi vagina

Kontraksi vagina adalah kontraksi otot-otot panggul yang mengelilingi vagina, terutama otot pubococcygeus. Kontraksi vagina umumnya merupakan respons otot yang tidak disengaja terhadap rangsangan seksual dan gairah seksual pada perempuan. Kontraksi vagina paling intens biasanya terjadi selama rangsangan seksual dan berpuncak pada orgasme. Meskipun kontraksi vagina biasanya merupakan respons yang tidak disengaja, beberapa wanita dapat mengontrol otot-otot vagina untuk melakukan kontraksi vagina sesuka hati. Kontraksi vagina meningkatkan pengalaman dan kenikmatan seksual bagi kedua belah pihak selama hubungan seksual.
Dalam sebuah penelitian pada tahun 1982, kontraksi panggul dari 11 wanita yang melakukan masturbasi hingga mencapai orgasme dipantau menggunakan probe anal dan probe vagina secara bersamaan. Menjelang permulaan orgasme yang dirasakan, serangkaian kontraksi teratur dialami oleh 9 wanita, dengan kontraksi anus dan vagina yang terjadi bersamaan. Tiga dari orgasme wanita secara konsisten hanya mencakup serangkaian kontraksi teratur; sementara enam wanita lainnya, orgasme secara konsisten berlanjut di luar rangkaian kontraksi teratur dengan tambahan kontraksi yang tidak teratur. Dua wanita tidak mengalami kontraksi vagina teratur selama orgasme. Wanita-wanita dalam studi ini menunjukkan perbedaan yang signifikan dalam durasi orgasme dan jumlah kontraksi yang dialami. Sebuah studi lanjutan pada tahun 1994 mengkonfirmasi hasil ini tetapi penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa beberapa wanita mengalami orgasme tanpa kontraksi dan beberapa melaporkan mengalami sesekali mengalami kontraksi selama orgasme.
Kontraksi vagina disebabkan oleh aktivitas daerah otak tertentu dan pelepasan hormon oksitosin. Beberapa pendapat menyatakan bahwa kontraksi vagina selama orgasme dapat meningkatkan kemungkinan kehamilan karena kontraksi memudahkan mengangkut sperma ke saluran reproduksi dari vagina ke saluran telur, serta mengurangi jarak yang harus ditempuh. Selain itu, saat wanita dalam masa subur, sperma hanya diangkut ke sisi ovarium dominan.
Kontraksi vagina yang tidak disengaja mungkin timbul dari penyebab non-seksual. Kejang otot di sekitar vagina yang tidak disengaja, biasanya disebabkan oleh kecemasan, dan dapat menyebabkan vaginismus. Kontraksi vagina tidak sama dengan kontraksi rahim.
Peda (ikan asin)

Ikan asin peda atau hanya peda saja, adalah sejenis olahan ikan yang telah melalui proses penggaraman dan penjemuran. Umumnya ikan yang digunakan untuk membuat ikan asin peda adalah ikan dengan daging tebal seperti kembung,tongkol,tenggiri atau makarel.
Ikan dibersihkan dahulu, kemudian digarami dan didiamkan semalaman, kemudian dijemur hingga benar benar kering
Ikan asin peda hanya dibuat dari ikan laut, ikan tak berkumis, bersisik kecil atau bahkan tak bersisik, memiliki daging tebal dan umummnya berasal dari keluarga Scombridae seperti makarel, tongkol, tenggiri atau kembung. Namun yang kerap ditemui di pasaran adalah ikan kembung. Jenis olahan ikan asin seperti bandeng, peperek, teri atau manyung tidak termasuk dalam kategori ikan asin peda
Ikan asin peda dan ikan pindang merupakan hal yang berbeda. Perbedaan tersebut terletak pada pengolahannya. Jika ikan pindang melalui tahap penggaraman dan pengasinan, ikan asin peda melalui tahap penggaraman dan penjemuran. Alhasil kadar air pada peda jauh lebih rendah daripada kadar air yang dimiliki ikan pindang
Penyajian ikan asin peda sangat sederhana, umumnya hanya sekadar digoreng, dan dijadikan sebagai lauk pauk pelengkap lalapan dan sambal. Tak jarang ikan asin peda juga diolah menjadi variasi makanan tumis dan penggongsengan.

Under Pressure (cookbook)

Under Pressure: Cooking Sous Vide is a 2008 cookbook written by American chefs Thomas Keller and Michael Ruhlman. The cookbook contains a variety of sous-vide recipes, a technique Thomas Keller began experimenting with in the 1990s. The recipes in Under Pressure are those prepared in Thomas Keller's The French Laundry and Per Se restaurants. The book also contains sous-vide cooking techniques and tips, including discussions of cooking time, food temperature, and food safety.
Under Pressure has been called a definitive sous-vide cookbook. Tam Ngo of Serious Eats found that Under Pressure's recipes "resist compromise and restrict substitution" and "are not always appropriate outside of the restaurant kitchen", due in part to the expensive equipment required to cook the dishes. Publishers Weekly found that the recipes were "so artfully arranged they would not be out of place in a modern art museum". The Washington Post was also ambivalent, finding that Under Pressure's recipes "can be made only if the reader invests thousands of dollars in highly specialized equipment, and even then the dishes often demand days of preparation, not to mention weeks, months or years of practice". However, a lot has changed since 2008. Specialized equipment that once cost "thousands of dollars" can now be purchased at the local hardware store or online for less than USD $50, making the perfection of sous vide cooking accessible to home cooks worldwide.

Separating eggs

Separating eggs is a process, generally used in cooking, in which the egg yolk is removed from the egg white. This allows one part of the egg to be used without the other part, or each part to be treated in different ways. Recipes for custard call for egg yolks, for example.
The most common reason for separating eggs is so the whites can be whipped. Also, because cholesterol is only found in the yolk, using only egg whites in a recipe will drastically reduce its cholesterol content.
All methods for separating eggs make use of the fact that the yolk can hold itself together, while the white is more runny. Since the yolks of older eggs are more watery, which makes separation difficult, it is best to begin with the freshest eggs available.
Although many recipes require eggs to be at room temperature, it is easiest to separate eggs that are cold. Eggs that are at room temperature can be separated, but this requires greater caution to avoid breaking the yolk. One solution is to separate the eggs, cover them, and then allow them to come to room temperature. In this method, eggs should not be allowed to sit too long because of the risk of bacteria growth. An alternative solution is to bring the bowl of egg whites (or yolks) up to temperature by placing it in another bowl of hot water.
Different methods:
Onsen tamago

Onsen tamago (Japanese: 温泉卵 or 温泉玉子, lit. 'hot spring egg') is a traditional Japanese low temperature boiled egg which is slow cooked in the hot waters of onsen in Japan.
The egg has a unique texture in that the white tastes like a delicate custard (milky and soft) and the yolk comes out firm, but retains the colour and creamy texture of an uncooked yolk. This special texture is the result of the egg yolk and egg white solidifying at different temperatures.
The egg is poached within the shell and is served with the shell removed in a small cup together with a sauce of broth and soy sauce.
The traditional way of cooking onsen tamago is to place eggs into rope nets and leave them in an onsen, with water that is approximately 70 °C (158 °F) for 30 to 40 minutes. After cooking, the shell is cracked open and the egg is served in seasoned bonito dashi (Japanese stock) for breakfast, or with a light sauce made with mirin, dashi and soy sauce with chopped spring onions sprinkled over the top.

Teo Peter

Teofil Nelu Peter (11 April 1954 – 4 December 2004) was a Romanian rock musician and bass player for Compact.
Peter was born in Cluj-Napoca, in Romania, in 1954. Compact was formed in Cluj-Napoca in 1977. Teo Peter had a brother.
Peter was killed in a traffic collision at 04:30 on 4 December 2004 when 31-year-old U.S. Marine Staff Sergeant Christopher Van Goethem serving as a Marine Security Guard at the U.S. embassy in Bucharest, while driving his Ford Expedition, collided with a taxi carrying Peter. Van Goethem did not obey a traffic signal to stop, which resulted in the collision. Peter was buried on 7 December in Mănăştur Cemetery, in his native Cluj-Napoca.
Although Van Goethem had admitted to drinking about three and a half beers over the course of the evening, tests of his blood returned negative for both alcohol and drugs, and he fled to Germany before charges could be filed in Romania. The Romanian government requested the American government lift his diplomatic immunity, which it has refused to do. Van Goethem was later cleared by a court martial of both manslaughter and adultery while convicted for obstruction of justice and making false statements.
Peter's death and Van Goethem's court martial were very controversial and led to protests from Romanians in the United States.
In 2005, the U.S. Embassy announced the establishment of a memorial commemorating the life and work of Teo Peter.

The Neolog Synagogue in Cluj-Napoca (Romanian: Sinagoga Neologă din Cluj-Napoca); also known as the Temple of the Deportees (Templul Memorial al Deportaţilor; Hungarian: Kolozsvári Neológ Zsinagóga, Emléktemplom), dedicated to the memory of those deported who were victims of the Holocaust; or more simply, the Neolog Synagogue (Romanian: Sinagoga Neologă), is a Neolog Jewish congregation and synagogue, located at 21 Horea Street, in the city of Cluj-Napoca, in Cluj County, in Transylvania, Romania.
Designed by Izidor Hegner in the Moorish Revival style, the synagogue was completed in 1887.
Located on Horea Street, it was built based on the plans of Izidor Hegner, an engineer, between 1886 and 1887. Seriously affected after attacks by the Iron Guard on September 13, 1927, it was soon rebuilt by the Romanian government.
In the period following the Second Vienna Award, when Northern Transylvania was returned to Hungary, it witnessed the Jews' deportation to Nazi extermination camps, Auschwitz-Birkenau, and was damaged by the bombardments of the neighbouring railway station, on June 2, 1944. In 1951 it was again restored, and the synagogue rededicated in memory of the lives of the Jews who were deported during the Holocaust.
In 2018, further restoration of the synagogue commenced including the development of a Jewish social cultural center.

Valley-Dynamo

Valley-Dynamo, Inc. is a gaming and sporting goods manufacturing company. It has been the dominant manufacturer of coin-operated pool tables in North America for over 6 decades, and produces the US-ubiquitous Valley brand and decreasingly common Dynamo brand (once a competitor). The company also manufactures other market-leader brand names, including Tornado brand table football (foosball), Dynamo air hockey, and Champion indoor shuffleboard tables, as well as Sun Glo shuffleboard equipment, for both the home and coin-op markets.
The company has distributors in some two dozen countries. Annual sales were up to US$15–17 mil, as of May 2009.
As Valley Co., the original company was founded by Earl Feddick in 1947 in Bay City, Michigan, where it remained under the auspices of a series of controlling companies including Kidde Inc., U.S. Industries, and Fenway Partners with Rickett still the majority shareholder. In 1999, then known as Valley Recreation Products, Valley absorbed and merged with both Tornado Table Sports and Dynamo Corp., and centralized operations at the Dynamo facilities in Richland Hills, Texas (a Dallas-Ft. Worth suburb).
The increasingly market-dominant enterprise was bought for US$34.5 million by, and was made a subsidiary of, Brunswick Corporation in 2003, as Valley-Dynamo LLC. Brunswick moved Valley-Dynamo's manufacturing operations to Reynosa, Mexico in 2006. In 2009, Valley-Dynamo "was acquired by a limited partnership controlled by Kelye Stites," owner of Champion Shuffleboard Ltd., "and other businesses in the Dallas/Fort Worth area." The sale amount was not disclosed, but was rumored to be surprisingly low ($3 to 5 million). Stites, the son-in-law of Valley Co. founder Rickett, decided to move pool and air hockey table production from Mexico back to Texas. Under the new partnership, in which Stites is the majority owner, Valley-Dynamo absorbed Champion's shuffleboard brand rather than vice versa, with Stites citing Valley-Dynamo's widespread brand name recognition.
Valley created, and wholly owns the international amateur Valley National 8-Ball League Association (VNEA). All VNEA matches must be played on Operator/Charter Holder owned pool tables only. The company also founded the Valley International Foosball Association (VIFA). The majority of American Poolplayers Association (APA) matches are also played on Valley-Dynamo tables, including the APA International Championships, although APA has no rules with regard to what brand or size of table is used.
Vendéen Palet

Palet on a lead plank also called Vendéen's Palet is a very popular palet game, an outdoor shuffleboard game, in the departement of Vendée, as well as the bordering departments of Deux-Sèvres, Maine-et-Loire, Charente-Maritime and Loire-Atlantique in the west of France. Palet on a lead plank is part of the National Federation for Rural Sports ("Fédération Nationale du Sport en Milieu Rural" in French) under the name "Palet fonte/laiton" (Palet Cast iron/brass).
Each team has six "palets" or disks. Each palet is numbered in order to be identified on the plank. A last palet, called the master or "le petit" (the little), is smaller and often of a different color from the other palets. The plank is 45 cm squared, at least 20 kg, and made of lead.
The Vendéen Palet is played to 11 or 13 points, 15 in final, in teams of 1 to 3 players. The goal is to throw the palet as close as possible to the master, without touching the floor, on the plank located 380 cm away from the thrower for cast iron palets or at 280 cm away for brass palets. Each palet placed on the plank close to the master thrown by a same team score points.
Each palet that is closer to the master than the closest palet of the other team scores one point.
The Challenge: Champs vs. Stars season 2

The 2018 installment of The Challenge: Champs vs. Stars, a recurring special mini-series of MTV's The Challenge, premiered on April 17, 2018. The season features ten alumni from The Challenge who made it to a final on the show or on Road Rules competing with ten celebrities.
