Beautiful Ponte Vedra Beach is all yours when you stay at Blue Dolphin, our oceanfront house right on the sands! Enjoy ocean views from two decks as well as a cool, shaded screened porch. Then go indoors to relax in comfort with the latest electronics!
Blue Dolphin couldn't have a better location. Here you're just behind the dunes, mere inches from the sands of one of the First Coast's most beautiful beaches. Quiet and unspoiled, with golden sands and gentle waves, our beach is perfect for families. Stroll along the surf at low tide and gather seashells and sharks' teeth; build sandcastles in the sun while sea birds dance along the edge of the water; boogie-board in the water and play bocce ball on the sand. Or just pull up a low beach chair, put your feet in the surf, and bliss out in the perfect balmy breezes of Florida!
The sun rises at your feet every morning at Blue Dolphin, so if you can manage to wake up early one day, you'll be enthralled by the Technicolor changes in the sky. Watch from the comfort of either of the open decks overlooking the beach, or recline in comfort on the screened porch and let the day unfold before you. You can even see the sunrise from the master bedroom!
Blue Dolphin is a family house, spacious and well appointed. If you're accustomed to hotel rooms, prepare for a treat -- everything you need is here, from a fully stocked kitchen to a laundry room to ultra-comfy beds and nap-worthy couches. Pack light, stop for groceries on the way to the house, and you're all set for the best vacation of your life.
The living area at Blue Dolphin is huge, with a wall-mounted 55-inch HDTV with Blu-ray and a DVD player above the fireplace. Sink into the couch or easy chair and enjoy a movie together while the kids spread out their Legos and Bionicles on the floor. For the game players in your group, the dining room table is ideal -- set beneath a soft light, it's great for everything from giant 2,000-piece puzzles to that ongoing game of Settlers of Catan! It also makes a great computer station -- you have free WiFi at Blue Dolphin.
Of course, it's possible to dine at the dining table too (!), but we find that we wind up taking most of our meals outdoors for that al fresco feeling! Wherever you dine, you'll love preparing your food in the kitchen at Blue Dolphin. Fully stocked with cookware and dishes, it will delight the chefs in your group. Even if you're just reheating pizza in the toaster oven or brewing that first, delicious cup of coffee in the Keurig, you'll love this space. There's plenty of counter room for working, and you're connected to the living and dining areas in here.
The living and dining areas of Blue Dolphin are open and connected, keeping the whole gang together even as everyone indulges in their favorite leisure activities. But when it comes time to sleep, privacy and quiet are what is needed, and that's just what you'll get at Blue Dolphin. Each of the 3 bedrooms is spacious, restful, and comfortable. The master has an en-suite bathroom, and a second full bathroom joins the second and third bedrooms. (A half-bath serves the living and dining areas.) So convenient!
The master suite is one of the jewels in Blue Dolphin's crown. You'll find that sleep comes easily in the ultra-soothing king-sized bed. But if you can manage to stay awake, enjoy a late show on the private TV, or do a little reading in the comfy chair beside the two long windows. Ah, the joys of free time!
The en-suite bath is lovely too, with enough space for both of you to get ready at the same time during the morning rush. All towels are provided, as are linens for every bed.
The second bedroom also offers a king-sized bed, perfect for grandparents or a second couple vacationing with you. And the third bedroom is great for kids or singles, with 2 twin beds and a 32-inch wall-mounted HDTV.
Come stay at Blue Dolphin next time you visit Ponte Vedra. You'll have the time of your life at the most beautiful place on earth!

Feb. 22 (Bloomberg) -- Bloomberg's Pimm Fox and Deborah Kostroun report on the performance of the U.S. equity market today.
U.S. stocks fell, a day after the Standard & Poor's 500 Index failed to hold at an almost four-year high, as sales of previously owned houses missed estimates and data from Europe and China spurred economic concern. (Source: Bloomberg)

Former Packers safety LeRoy Butler is even excited about tonight's first round of the NFL Draft.
He put together his own mock draft and posted it on JSonline.
Take a look … and enjoy.
1. Indianapolis – QB Andrew Luck, Stanford. Comment: My advice to him in his first year is don't be afraid to throw the checkdown pass. Remember that.
2. Washinston – QB Robert Griffin III, Baylor. Comment: Same advice I gave to Andrew Luck.
3. Minnesota – CB Morris Claiborne, LSU. Comment: The Vikings need to be able to compete against Greg Jennings, Brandon Marshall and Megatron.
4. NY Jets via trade with Cleveland – RB Trent Richardson, Alabama. Comment: The Jets trade Mark Sanchez and the 16th pick to move up to get the best RB in the draft.
5. Tampa Bay – OT Matt Kalil, USC. Comment: They've got to rebuild their offensive line to help protect Josh Freeman.
6. St. Louis – WR Justin Blackmon, Oklahoma State. Comment: Here's a big target for their $50 miliion QB, Sam Bradford that they can pair up with Brandon Lloyd.
7. Jacksonville – CB Stephon Gilmore, South Carolina. Comment: They need help on defense.
8. Miami – QB Ryan Tannehill, Texas A & M. Comment: Tannehill worked with offensive coordinator Mike Sherman and he can learn from Matt Moore and David Garrard.
9. Carolina – LB Luke Kuechly, Boston College. Comment: They have a lot of problems at LB and Kuechly helps address that.
10. Buffalo – DT Fletcher Cox, Mississippi St. Comment: He will pair great with Mario Williams.
11. Kansas City – DT Dontari Poe, Memphis. Comment: They need cornerback help, but Romeo Crennel is happy to get more help on defense.
12. Seattle – DE Quinton Coples, North Carolina. Comment: Seattle is building a pretty good defense.
13. Arizona – OT Riley Reiff, Iowa. Comment: They gave up a ton of sacks last year and need to protect Kevin Kolb better.
14. Dallas – S Mark Barron, Alabama. Comment: I'd love to see the Packers move up here, but it would take too much to pull off the trade.
15. Philadelphia – WR Michael Floyd, Notre Dame. Comment: This pick is for Michael Vick.
16. Cleveland, via trade with Jets – CB Dre Kirkpatrick, Alabama. With him and Joe Haden, they have two very good young corners.
17. Cincinnati – DE/OLB Melvin Ingram, South Carolina. Comment: They need help on defense.
18. San Diego – OG David DeCastro, Stanford. Comment: The Chargers have to rebuild their offensive line and DeCastro is the best lineman available.
19. Chicago – DT Michael Brockers, LSU. Comment: The Bears need help in the middle of their defensive line.
20. Tennessee – WR Stephen Hill, Georgia Tech. Comment: The Packers could try to trade up to this spot, but if they don't the Titans go for WR help.
21. Cincinnati – ILB, Dont'a Hightower, Alabama. Comment: They need CB help, which they didn't get with their first pick, but they go with a linebacker.
22. Cleveland – RB Doug Martin, Boise St. Comment: The Browns need someone to replace Peyton Hillis and give newly acquired Sanchez some help.
23. Detroit – CB Janoris Jenkins, North Alabama. Comment: He's got a lot of off-the-field problems, but he's maybe the best cover guy in the draft and the Lions need help in the secondary.
24. Pittsburgh – DT Jerel Worthy, Michigan State. Comment: He'll help replace Aaron Smith and eventually Casey Hampton.
25. Green Bay, via trade with Denver – LB Whitney Mercilus, Illinois. Comment: The Packers move up by trading their fourth-round pick and No. 28. He's a little raw, but he's a good pass rusher. You can stand him up at ROLB opposite Clay Matthews and put him down in nickel. He's the best pure pass rusher available at this point. He's got good size and range. He's kind of like Kamerion Wimbley from Florida State.
26. Houston – OG Corrdy Glenn, Georgia. Comment: They have a lot invested in Matt Schaub and they have to keep him protected.
27. New England – OLB Shea McClellin, Boise State. Comment: He's a smart rusher. If you close your eyes, he's Mike Vrabel.
28. Denver, via trade with GB – C Peter Konz, Wisconsin. Comment: He can help them out at guard and center.
29. Baltimore – Courtney Upshaw, OLB, Alabama. Comment: The Ravens are always going for defense and he can help them inside or outside.
30. San Francisco – Nick Perry, DE, USC. Comment: He would have been good for the Packers, but they can't get over the chance to have Mercilus.
31. New England – OT Jonathan Martin, Stanford. Comment: They lost Matt Light and need help on the offensive line.
32. New York Giants – TE Coby Fleener, Stanford. Comment: They lost two TEs to knee injuries in the Super Bowl and with Eli Manning throwing to a guy like this, look out.

About Steven Slate
Hi, I'm Steven Slate, the author of this site. As a person who once had a problem with substance use, I bring not only my current research into the recovery culture to the table, but also my personal experience. I went through 5 years of conventional treatment and 12 step group participation, without any long-term success. Finally, I found successful long term change with the influence of The Saint Jude Program program developed by the Baldwin Research Institute. I was taught things that made sense to me by that program – that I did not have a disease, but was freely choosing to use substances heavily as a means to be happy; and that I could freely choose to stop using substances heavily. I learned how to end my problem through my own thoughts and choices, and I've been free from substance use problems ever since. I served as the lead instructor and director of the St Jude Retreat House, where I helped hundreds of people to end their substance use problems and move on with a better life. While there, I also contributed to further development of the course materials and textbook. After a few years, I pursued some new life goals elsewhere, but continued to help peole with substance use problems independently, teaching my own curriculum integrated with a coaching process, and worked briefly with renowned addiction expert Stanton Peele to adapt his Life Process Program into the same type of approach. Now, I'm back with Baldwin Research, heading up our New York City office. If you'd like to visit my office, and learn how I can help, you can find more info about that at this link: Cognitive Behavioral Education.
I've had too many friends and relatives who weren't so lucky to find a solution, many of whom are no longer with us. It really drives me nuts to see people learn to be powerless and helpless at conventional treatment programs and 12-step groups, so I started this site to spread the truth about addiction, and help others to avoid the fate of an endless struggle and cycle through ineffective programs and flawed methodologies of addiction treatment.
I hope you find the information on this site empowering, and I want to assure you that you are completely capable of making different choices about substance use at this very moment, and you can solve your substance use problems permanently – with or without my or anyone else's help. You are a human being, you have consciousness, you have volition, don't let anyone else convince you that you're animalistic, powerless, or diseased – change will be yours if you focus on a brighter future and put in the work to get there.
The cleanslate.org offers information and views on addiction. I do not give any medical advice other than this one sensible piece of advice: If you think you may need medical detoxification from drugs or alcohol, see a doctor or go to a hospital immediately. This site, and any services offered by Steven Slate, are not medical services, addiction treatment, or rehabilitation, in any way. I take the position that addiction, meaning a destructive pattern of substance use, is not a disease, but instead a freely chosen set of behaviors. Therefore I can not offer medical treatment or a "cure," nor do I think anyone else can medically "treat" a set of choices. I can only offer information on what I believe about addiction. I think these ideas and information are helpful – it is what allowed me to end my own destructive pattern of substance use. I explain the logic behind my opinions, and offer up supporting research wherever possible, but please don't take my word as gospel and don't be under the impression that I am a doctor – I am not. Let this information inspire you to do some digging and critical thinking yourself.
This site is sponsored by no one other than me, Steven Slate. You may notice that I review some books and programs on this site, but I am not compensated in any way for recommending these. The only service I recommend on this site which I do have a financial interest in is The Saint Jude Program (as of October 1st 2011), but I receive no referral fee of any kind for promoting it.
thecleanslate.org will never share any personal information of our users with anyone.
Please use our contact page if you have any questions.
I welcome all comments, especially honest debate. I do very little moderation of the comments – basically if someone is revealing too much personal information about another person, I will delete the comment or completely erase it when it comes to my attention. Some people may or may not give what is deemed to be medical advice in the comments section – take that with a grain of salt folks, it's the internet, exercise judgment and always consult with a doctor when it comes to medicine. I reserve the right to remove any comment for any reason, but you'll notice I don't really do it, even the ones expressing much hate for me personally are left up. Spam will not be tolerated and is aggressively blocked. As a result, some of your comments may get caught in the spam box, and they'll probably be lost forever – if you don't want that to happen, then don't try to sell gold watches and viagra on my blog!
Official Positions
The world of conventional addiction treatment and alternative views/methods of help for substance use problems is a treacherous jungle. While the currently accepted treatments are insane, those working on the fringe are at times even more insane. Lest anyone misinterpret my personal views on the various issues involved, I will clearly state them here and now.
Conventional Treatment – On the whole, statistically, conventional treatment programs don't work. When compared with the general population who never receive treatment, these methods generally show no added effectiveness to "doing nothing". Of course "doing nothing" often includes doing something – but the "something" is going through natural processes of change. Prolific addiction researchers such as James Prochaska PhD have concluded that for people who successfully solve their substance use problems, the processes of change experienced by those who do not receive treatment are exactly the same for those who do receive treatment. So in my mind, with treatment proving to have no better rate of success than "no treatment", and the principles of change being identical with the success stories from either path, I conclude that it's not worth anyone's time to attend traditional programs for the treatment of addiction. Beyond that, in many cases, treatment success rates are worse than doing nothing, often lead only to endless cycles of more treatment, and usually instill feelings of helplessness and powerlessness which serve to derail natural processes of change which would have occurred had the subject not attended the treatment program. With that said, I believe that some elements of conventional programs can be helpful – it's not all bad – but I believe the bad outweighs the good in the treatment world, my reasons for that can be found all over this site. Therefore, my opinion on conventional addiction treatment is that it should be avoided.
Alternative Programs – Programs billed as "alternative" may not be much better than conventional programs, and in many cases may be worse. Such programs often are run in the same spirit as conventional programs (with a focus on confrontation, control, humiliation, ego-busting, and punishment). Or, rejecting the damaging disease and 12-step models and approaches, they may replace them with equivalently harmful concepts which keep the client focused squarely on a biological cause – such as programs which claim that nutritional deficiencies or "toxins" are the cause of continued addiction. While conventional programs usually put the responsibility for change on medical staff and god, alternative programs often miss the point of providing an alternative to this, and simply place the responsibility for change on god – both leave the troubled individual waiting for a miracle to save them. Moreover, some define themselves as alternative simply because they've added yoga classes, energy healing, and other new-agey components to the normal menu of treatment methods. Therefore it is my opinion that not all alternative methods are good or recommended by me. You'll see that I'm very picky with what I actually endorse.
Medications – It's important to recognize that in my criticism of treatment, I view detoxification, medical treatment for drug-related illnesses, and the treatment of serious psychological disorders/illnesses as being distinct from "addiction treatment" or "recovery". I do not discourage anyone from seeking the former accepted medical treatments – but I do discourage people from seeking the latter. The medical world has shown that it can effectively treat what may be referred to as the acute stage of addiction, the physical part of it. I whole heartedly endorse some medical detox procedures (but will not discuss specific methods), and other pharmaceutical therapies which can stave off initial cravings and effects of withdrawal. I encourage anyone who may have a drug/alcohol related illness (e.g. cirrhosis) to see a doctor for it. I encourage anyone who has suicidal thoughts or perhaps problems with anxiety, etc, to seek psychiatric help for these problems. However, I view these as side issues, and know that even when people are cured of physical withdrawal symptoms, or have made progress in dealing with anxiety, they may still go right back to the problematic pattern of use known as addiction, and that this is the "choice" I talk about when I say that addiction is a choice – and this is the part of the problem the medical treatment system has consistently failed to address effectively, and which they are fundamentally incapable of treating due to the nature of the problem. It is treatment for the wider problem of addiction, the choice to use substances excessively/problematically which I oppose. I do not oppose treatment for related medical/psychiatric problems where it can be effective. I do not have anything against medication for these problems, and none of my talk about choice should ever be interpreted as telling people not to use medication. Medications have their proper place and uses, but I do not think that any medication or medical procedure will permanently solve the problem of "poor choices" which lies at the heart of "addiction".
Alcoholics Anonymous, related groups, and Twelve-Step philosophy and methods – This site does not exist to "bash" AA. However, the purpose of the site is to offer alternative views of, and solutions for, addiction. The 12-step way being the norm, and generally not being effective, necessitates criticism on my part though. So I will criticize it, without hesitation, whenever appropriate. It's not fair that everyone should be fed the 12-steps and told that it is the only way when there are clearly better options available. I take the position that the 12-step ways are ineffective at best, harmful and counterproductive at worst – and the the organization as a whole, is a dangerous cult. With all of this said, I do not hold this against all 12-step members. Many of them do not behave or even think in a cult-like manner. Many of them are fine people. I don't know how they do it, but I think there are many with such strong personalities that they are able to resist all of the madness and use the group for support. That's good for them, I salute them, and I would never try to convince them to leave the group. However, I would suggest that anyone thinking of attending a 12-step program of any kind should simply stay away from it, and don't bother getting involved.
What to do – If I'm opposed to so much, then what am I actually in favor of? Unfortunately, most of the information I find shows that their is no good help available. This may leave some readers thinking that there is no solution, or that it leaves them in the position of having nothing to do to make change happen for themselves or a loved one in need of help. I am in favor of any program which teaches the principles of self-change. That is, I'm in favor of applying what we know really works to help people to change. This may be learned in some of the books I've listed on my help page. Such books give you something to do. I wish I could give you huge lists of places to go to get effective help based on principles of self-change, unfortunately though, there are very few programs where you can go away to a residential facility to make a much needed change in environment (for extreme users) while you learn about this model. Nor is it easy to find a therapist, counselor, or coach who will be in the same non-disease, non-12-step, pro self-change/choice model mindset. If such professionals make themselves known to me, I'll be happy to list them here. Ultimately, it's up to you to find ways to accelerate the process of self-change – I give a few leads on my Find Help Now page, and hopefully you'll gain insight on the principles of self-change by reading the various articles on this site.
* Note: I say "experience" of addiction, because there is no objective state of "addiction" in which people actually can't control whether or not they use substances. People may feel as if they can't control themselves or feel as if they are "powerless", but this is a feeling, it is an experience. The experience of addiction is based on the belief that substance use is one's best viable option for happiness and/or the belief in powerlessness/addiction. However, objectively, they are in full control, and if they decide to initiate different thoughts and beliefs, they will make different choices. "Addiction" does not even exist as a real entity – it is a subjective experience of life.

text: Is it safe to say that we should expect a Call of Duty game every year now? I hope so. Activision Blizzard has announced the next installment of the series with the follow up to 07′s Modern Warfare to be released this holiday. Infinity Ward will be taking up the reigns as expected and it will surely be one of the biggest games this upcoming holiday season. I want a longer single player campaign, vehicles in multiplayer, bigger maps, etc. What it is, what it is.

CHESTER – Ezra Brown Crenshaw Jr.'s face sagged and he cast his gaze toward the courtroom floor only briefly as Circuit Court Judge DeAndrea G. Benjamin sentenced him to four and a half years in prison for stealing nearly $500,000 from the three nonprofit organizations where he once served as a financial officer.
It had only been a few hours since Margaret Jones learned her great-nephew J'Quayl Frazier had been shot and killed Wednesday night, and the news still seemed too unreal to believe.
One day after his 24th birthday, an escaped inmate who had been on the run for more than two weeks was captured by local authorities inside a home where his family was living.
With a map of South Carolina speckled with red dots displayed behind them, a team of local and state law enforcement leaders announced the indictments of 37 people in a massive methamphetamine operation on Thursday, Sept. 4.

We've all heard the adage that it's better to give than receive and sometimes, unexpected blessings can be received in the midst of giving back.
Reece Murphy
A fight between two groups of students, social media and the murder of a Lancaster man Wednesday have made for a rumor-filled week at Lancaster High School, though district and school officials said they've found no credible threats.
Christopher Sardelli
Despite hours of investigative work this week, police have still not identified a suspect in the shooting death of 19-year-old J'Quayl Frazier outside a Lancaster home Wednesday night.
The family of Tanner Crolley, the accused killer of his teenage ex-girlfriend Sierra Landry, has hired a new attorney who will appear 9 a.m. Friday, Sept. 19, at the Lancaster County Courthouse to request bond for his client.
Sixth Judicial Circuit Court Judge Brooks P. Goldsmith is scheduled to preside over the hearing which is the second attempt to get a bond for Crolley.
An escaped attempted murder suspect is still on the loose almost two weeks after he slipped out of his handcuffs and ran from a deputy at the county detention center on Pageland Highway.

Entering into the Barnes Foundation off the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, you may notice the beautiful landscaping and the extensive plantings that surround the building. Although the art draws a lot of attention, the Foundation has more than one collection in its care, and the plants you see in Philadelphia draw inspiration from the living collection at the twelve-acre Arboretum in Merion, where the art collection was also previously located.
August 15, 2013
by Kristen Ryan, Gardener
The Barnes Arboretum is known for cultivating plants that don't fare as well elsewhere in Pennsylvania. At the Arboretum in Merion, we have recently identified 18 state champion trees, which are the largest of their species within the state.
July 17, 2013
by Jacob Thomas, Deputy Director for Living Collections
Among the most labor- and cost-intensive of any type of planting, complicated rose beds became rare after World War II-induced labor shortages ended the golden age of horticulture. But the Philadelphia region is still home to few of these horticultural relics, one of which is almost hidden in the back of the Barnes Arboretum...

In Air King, game by Oliver Sihiveer, you are an air traffic controller. Your task is to be the first one to guide and land certain aircraft. To make things tricky, however, each player has his own task that's hidden from others, so sometimes it's useful to bluff in order to give false information to other players as to which aircraft are yours.
At the start of the game, all ten aircraft wait next to the ariports in order to depart. Each player receives a task card, which shows four (out of ten) aircraft that you have to guide to the opposing airport. Players keep their task card hidden from opponents. On a turn, a player draws an action card, moves two aircraft (not necessarily those on his task card), and plays up to two action cards; these cards give extra movement to some aircraft or block other aircraft. When all four aircraft on a player's task card are landed, he can reveal his task card on his turn and win the game.
Game contents:
54 playing cards and game rules.
Central Market, by Edgars Zaķis, is a strategic bidding game with a twist; instead of raising their bids, players try to lower them – but only to a certain level. Players receive cards that depict various kinds of vegetables, which players may then try to sell. The selling is tricky as you must set a selling price for the items – and while naturally you want the price as high as possible, other players can offer lower prices. The number of products that can be sold each round is limited, so only the players who set the lowest prices will be able to sell something and (maybe) earn a profit.
Each player holds several action cards that can be used during the game to influence your chances of selling products or ruin the selling by other players. At the end of each round, any profit earned is transferred into victory points, and the player with the most points at the end of the game wins.
Game contents:
78 playing cards, 1 scoring board, 21 tokens in 6 colours and game rules.
In Oliver Sihiveer's game Construction Zone, each player is trying to construct new buildings. Each turn, players have access to resources; the basic ones can be taken easily from a draw pool, but you may also trade them away for advanced ones. At any time on your turn, you can also construct one building. To do so, you must play a certain number and combination of resources, then take (construct) the corresponding building.
Construction is a bit tricky, however, as at any given time only three buildings are available for players to construct and any player may construct any building. Thus, you may be collecting resources for one building, but another player manages to construct it first, forcing you to readjust your plans. The first player to construct a certain number of buildings (depending on the number of players) wins.
Game contents:
105 playing cards and game rules.
By playing cards in Food Chain, game by Meelis Looveer, players create natural food chains, hunting and eating in the forest and competing against one another for the best dishes.
In game terms, each player holds four cards in hand, and four cards are placed in the middle of the table, which represents the forest. The card deck has twelve different types of animals/objects, in addition to special cards like the hunter, who can hunt any other card, and angry bees, which scare cards out of the forest. Players take turns in clockwise order and can choose one of five actions each turn. The game ends when the deck runs out. All players then add up their points from the top-left corner of each card, and the player with the most points wins.
Game contents:
52 playing cards, 16 tokens in 4 colours and game rules.
In Dig Mars, players perform different actions to dig out discovery tiles. Discovery tiles are worth varying amounts of fortune points, but fortune points can also be used to upgrade a player's equipment. When to do what? Timing is key. The different actions are:

In Om Nom Nom, during the game you will roll dice, which will represent various kinds of prey. By clever play of your hunter cards, you will try to eat the prey and thus gain victory points. At the end of the game the winner will be the player with the most points.
The game consists of 3 rounds. Each round is divided into 4 phases – roll, play, score and cleanup. During the "Roll" phase one of the players rolls all the dice. After rolling the dice are arranged on the game boards. During the "Play" phase all players will play all 6 of their predator cards one by one. When everyone has selected their first card, they are revealed simultaneously. This is where the action happens. Did You manage to guess what everyone else will play? Were You the only one brave enough to sneak Your mouse after the cheese? Or did You like everyone else play the wolf, because no rabbit surely could resist that amount of carrots. During this phase, players resolve all their played cards by capturing dice and cards of other players. During the "Score" phase players score points for captured cards and dice. And during the "Cleanup", when all 6 cards have been played, players gather all their cards back in hand and a new round can begin. At the end of the third round, player with the most points is the winner.
