Guys, are you living large and enjoying life?
...or does this conversation sound familiar instead?
You: "I've had a great time tonight. Let's get together again this Saturday. There's a new Guardians of the Galaxy movie we can go to. I'll text you with the time."
Her: "Uh, no thanks. I have plans for Saturday."
Ouch! In your head you ask yourself: "What the heck am I doing wrong?"
How many times have you been frustrated by the dating game? Have you ever just wanted to beat on a heavy bag in the gym after one more relationship stopped dead in its tracks? Aaaaargh! OK, so maybe you haven't been so dramatic about it.
Still, if you're like many young guys in high school and college (or even older guys, divorced and back on the dating scene) you've struggled with this question: "Why is it so hard? How do I get to the next level?"
I've Felt Your Pain
I've spent a lot of time frustrated. I made plenty of dating mistakes. Some mistakes were simple, and others were pretty drastic. At one point I thought there was something wrong with me and I was not allowed to have a relationship. I had hit a pretty low point. Many Saturday nights I was either home alone or out at a movie by myself. Just watching other couples out in public frustrated and angered me.
This one thought kept running through my head: Why not me? Why can't I have that?
So what's a guy supposed to do? Where do you look for answers? The first place to look on the web is almost always the same…the Pick Up Artists
Can PUA Help?
If you're like most guys, you've probably looked into the Pick Up Artist (PUA) community for some guidance. PUA is all over the internet and easy to find. Sure, PUA provides you with some interesting "game" and some amusing opening lines. That's all it does. It's great for picking up horny women for low quality one-night stands. It's less useful for building relationships, and it's completely wrong for everyday interactions. PUA is not the powerful and important information you need.
You Need Something Smarter
PUA might get you laid occasionally, but it doesn't address what's really making dating hard. PUA provides tactics, but it doesn't provide the foundations for anything more. It took me a while to figure out exactly what that "more" was. The shocking part was discovering I wasn't the only one who didn't understand!
Gradually things started to click for me and I saw the patterns emerge. I discovered there are powerful foundational concepts every guy needs to know. Nobody ever teaches guys like you and me these dating and relationship concepts. Not your buddies, not the pickup artists. I had never learned the right skills and the foundational concepts to tackle the dating scene.A lucky few stumble upon these concepts naturally, but many suffer and learn them the hard way. As I spent years learning more and more, I became a little angry that nobody ever shared this powerful and important knowledge with me or other guys. The knowledge is THAT important!
I call this knowledge…

In late July 2013, the New York Times ran what would end up being a controversial op-ed piece written by Peter Buffett, the son of billionaire and noted philanthropist Warren Buffett. He wrote:
"Inside any important philanthropy meeting, you witness heads of state meeting with investment managers and corporate leaders. All are searching for answers with their right hand to problems that others in the room have created with their left. There are plenty of statistics that tell us that inequality is continually rising. At the same time, according to the Urban Institute, the nonprofit sector has been steadily growing. Between 2001 and 2011, the number of nonprofits increased 25 percent."
What Buffett calls attention to is a profoundly troubling feature of society—inequality and philanthropy are growing together. There are, of course, a few ways to read this point. One, philanthropy is growing in response to the need created by poverty and inequality, two, philanthropy is ineffective at addressing need, or three, more cynically, philanthropy is growing without regard to need and is driven by some other factor. Buffett suggests this other factor in his op-ed saying that those who accumulate massive wealth justify their wealth by "sprinkling a little around as an act of charity."
The various reads on Buffett's point give rise to an important sociological question—to what does philanthropy respond that causes it to grow? Is it in response to growing economic inequality and the needs of the disadvantaged or does it arise from conceptions noblesse oblige? If the latter, how does a sense of civic obligation become part of an elite group identity? These questions are momentously important for our time.
Bolstering Buffett's account of philanthropic growth, the US is currently experiencing a second golden age in American philanthropic regimes. Analogous to Andrew Carnegie and John D. Rockefeller are Warren Buffet and Bill Gates along with a host of others with immense net-worth and philanthropic foundations to their names. As shown in the figures, from 2001 to 2011, the number of family foundations in the US increased almost 1300%, from 3,219 to 40,456, the total assets held by these foundations increased nearly 240% from $124 billion to $294 billion, and the total amount given by these foundations increased around 300% from $7 billion to $21 billion (an average giving-to-assets ratio of 6.8%, or just over the legally mandated disbursement rate of 5% for maintenance of foundation tax status).
Further underscoring the importance of studying the formation of philanthropic interests in family foundations is the fact that trust in the nonprofit sector is increasing while trust in government is at an all-time low (Pew). Though the nonprofit sector and public sector may both provide public goods, the nonprofit sector is distinct from the public sector in that it is noncoercive—it cannot force collectives toward common ends—and thus it relies on goodwill. The effective use of state power fades in tandem with trust in the state (Frumkin 2002) and the nonprofit sector rises to fill the gap. This can be described by the three-failures theory suggesting that non-profits step in where for-profit markets and government actions fall short (Steinberg 2006). This is due to consumers' lack of faith that profit-maximizing institutions have consumers' best interests in mind (Hansmann 1987) and the government's failure to provide for the minority interests of the electorate (Weisbrod 1975). Voluntary organizations can fail too. They are prone to amateurism, paternalism and particularism (Salamon 1987), and some, such as the private foundations that I am studying, may be criticized as bastions of plutocracy (Reich 2013). Placing nonprofits in the role of providing for the public good raises questions about their accountability. But if foundations are stepping into the role of providing public goods—we must understand what drives these decisions. It has been suggested that there are competing hypotheses for how nonprofit allocations are made: it could be in response to the desires of those making decisions or it could be in response to societal need (Frumkin 2002). With the current growing trend of vast financial resources being set aside in long-term, donor-directed and tax-incentivized private foundations, it is imperative to scrutinize the decisions of these foundations in distributing their money for the public good. I propose such scrutiny be conducted through empirical research.
First, based on data provided by the Foundation Center (foundationcenter.org), I will conduct a basic exploration of the grant-making habits of independent family foundations. Where are they giving their money—which locations and which causes? Which sectors receive the most attention and which sectors are neglected? The Foundation Center's data can be cross-checked and verified with additional data collected through the Urban Institute's National Center on Charitable Statistics (NCCS; nccs.urban.org) which relies on a IRS-990 forms and shows revenues, expenses, and basic organizational activities for non-profits. Together, this data can show trends, both historically and currently, of growth, revenues and expenditures, including information on the sectors toward which expenditures are going.
The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, for example, with assets of $34,640,122,664 at the end of 2011 and an additional $37 billion pledge from Warren Buffett can be examined through these data. Foundation Center data provide deep understanding of this and other organizations' grantmaking activities and allows for the study of trends in foundational giving across sectors and time periods. Mapping the diffusion of grant-making trends through family foundations may reveal the underlying drivers of foundation grantmaking processes. A network analysis may show that particular organizations such as the Gates Foundation are trendsetters, directly or indirectly influencing the giving behavior of other foundations. This means understanding the decision making behind foundation grantmaking is all the more important, possibly contributing to a theory of why some societal needs are met while others are not. Likewise, this may help to answer Peter Buffett's criticism of elite philanthropy. I hypothesize that there are gaps in philanthropic focus due to the way in philanthropic trends diffuse. This would suggest that philanthropic interests do not grow in lockstep with social need and may require greater regulatory oversight than they currently receive.
These data alone however will not sufficiently answer my set of research questions. To do that, it is necessary to conduct open-ended interviews within foundations to better understand how decisions are made. To accomplish this task, I propose the use of ethnographic methods in the tradition of organizational ethnography in which I both assess the formal organizational structures within foundations as well as the informal means by which decisions are made. Through ethnography and interview, my focus will be on understanding how decisions are made about where to invest, to what degree decision makers are assessing need in making these decisions, and to what degree money is being invested toward assessed needs. Are they following the lead of other, more prominent foundations, or are they charting new territory? I will be interested to find how philanthropic ideas and practices emerge and diffuse through organizations and individuals. At Stanford, I am in a prime location to conduct this ethnographic work—there are 2,498 foundations in the Bay Area, 108 of which have assets over $50 million dollars. There is ample opportunity to conduct research within foundations from my current location.
Together, the mix of quantitative and ethnographic methods will provide solid empirical ground on which to assess questions of how philanthropy responds and grows in interaction with society at large, and how the elites within foundations develop a collective sense of noblesse oblige—potentially seeing philanthropy as an outgrowth of a collective identity that involves civic obligation. Understanding how philanthropists and their foundations see themselves and their work will provide the basis of knowledge from which philanthropy can be better enacted, regulated, and more efficiently meet its stated goals of improving society.
To this end, I seek to disseminate my findings widely, both through philanthropic foundations, policy think-tanks, and the PACS Center at Stanford of which I am a member. Philanthropy is of growing interest in the social sciences and, as I have shown, of growing relevance in our society. I seek to contribute to the conversation about how it can be understood and harnessed for social good. The NSF GRFP would better equip me to play a role in this emerging academic focus.

North Wilkes High School
GU Tools for School Series at North High
Members of the North High GEAR UP Leadership Team, Anna Pardue, Lizz Mastrella, and Junior Miller, collaborated to host a series of SmartLunch sessions entitled: GEAR UP Tools for School. The series included refresher courses and exploration of Virtual Job Shadow and Tutor.com as well as a College Knowledge session. During the College Knowledge session, students were quizzed on college facts and used Virtual Job Shadow to research and create college banners. The banners will be part of a college bulletin board display in the high school cafeteria. As an added incentive, student participants received a pair of North High earbuds as they completed the SmartLunch series.
North High National Hour of Code Celebration!
In celebration of National Hour of Code week, Mrs. Tracy Walker encouraged students to try their hand at computer coding with games such as Star Wars, Minecraft, Frozen, Flappy Code, and many more. During smartlunch sessions, North High students joined tens of millions of students globally in the celebration.
There are an increasing number of businesses apart from the technology field that are relying on computer coding. It is no wonder that eight of the top twenty-five jobs for 2017 are technology related positions. A software engineer could easily find themselves marketable across the spectrum of careers. Fields as varied as Microsoft, hospitals, automotive plants, and cyber security all require computer coding. In 2016, over seven million job openings were in occupations that require programming and coding skills.
West Wilkes High School
West High Celebrates....Tech the Halls!
Each year as Christmas holidays approach, West Wilkes High School media coordinator Robin Rhodes and ITF Ramona Burkhart encourage teachers to toot their technology horns with a Tech the Halls contest.
Teachers and students use a holiday theme to decorate classroom doors in ways that show how they incorporate technology into instruction. Principal David Johnson and Asst. Principal Amanda Pruitt are the judges who decide which door best displays student and staff integration of technology. The winning teacher is awarded an extra planning period on the day and time of his/her choice. During this time in the media center, Robin and Ramona teach students how to utilize a web-based tool in any topic the teacher assigns. The decorated doors are fun, informational conversation-starters. Tech the Halls- fa la la la la, la la la la!

West High Advice to Freshmen Video Series
Multimedia and Webpage Design classes at West High, under the direction of Jill Woodie, are creating a series of freshmen transition videos utilizing Adobe Premiere Pro, Audacity and Canva that can be used by West Middle and West High. Studies show that the transition to high school is a critical juncture for students. This transition is a time that students move from a smaller middle school to a larger and unfamiliar high school. A successful high school transition often leads to higher academic achievement and lower drop out rates.

Tips For Knowing When To Hire A Louisville Bankruptcy Lawyer
At O'Bryan Law Offices, we are proud to represent local clients who come to us to resolve debt issues. If you're facing mounting debt and wondering whether it's even possible to get out from under the burden of your payments, you should know that there are options available to you. The dream of attaining a future free from debt is one that should be made available to all. Our bankruptcy team is here to help you move toward that future while protecting what you've worked hard to obtain.
The job of your Louisville bankruptcy lawyer is to assist you in determining whether filing for bankruptcy is the right choice for your situation. Once the determination is made that you would benefit from filing, your lawyer will assess your personal assets and debt and help you understand which type of bankruptcy would best meet your needs. If you are unfamiliar with bankruptcy law or what differentiates one type from another, we will be happy to sit down with you and discuss your objectives while taking a look at what options are available to you. You can speak with a Louisville bankruptcy lawyer from our firm right now when you call us at 502-400-4020 to schedule your free consultation.
Kentucky law allows for individuals and business owners to file bankruptcy on their own behalf, however we strongly caution anyone thinking about doing so to take a few minutes and consider why hiring a lawyer would be to your distinct advantage. Bankruptcy law is extremely complex; unless you have legal knowledge and experience regarding bankruptcy, you'll risk losing your home or other assets in your efforts to become debt free.
Our firm can protect what you own, with Chapter 13 or Chapter 7 bankruptcy. If you have an income and you wish to protect your home and assets, we can help you establish a debt repayment plan at an extended term, giving you some breathing room with your income and allowing you to start paying back the balance of what you owe rather than making payments on interest. In this way, you can keep your home and your retirement assets- and in a lot of cases, your vehicles and personal property. If you're in a position where credit card debt is consuming most of your income, Chapter 7 bankruptcy may be a better option. We may be able to help you obtain a complete discharge of your unsecured debt, including credit card debt, revolving loans and medical bills.
We believe it's in the best interest of our clients to speak with a Louisville bankruptcy lawyer from our firm in order to protect what has taken so long to work for and walk away from bankruptcy with a clean slate for the future. Let O'Bryan Law be your first contact when looking into filing bankruptcy. We provide a wealth of free resources on our website for you to use and our agents are always just a phone call away should you have questions.Louisville Bankruptcy Lawyer

The Road to Little Dribbling
Title: The Road to Little Dribbling
Author: Bill Bryson
Review by Jade Craddock
In a list of fifteen things he doesn't like – what he names reflex loathings – as item 8 Bill Bryson somewhat ominously includes 'most book reviewers'. Admittedly he also includes people who say 'stonking' and writing mic instead of mike. Both stonking suggestions, duly noted.
But alas, I jest. And attempting a book review of an author who so clearly maligns 'most' book reviewers is somewhat dangerous territory. However, ever since reading Notes from a Small Island, many moons ago now, and incidentally both my first foray into the works of Bill Bryson and the travel-writing genre as a whole, I've been a fan. Anyone who can make their own travel adventures neither epically dull (we've all been subjected to the routine misfortune of having to sit through endless holiday photos – someone else's not our own) nor grossly envy-inducing (we've all also had to suppress the green-eyed monster over the travel brochures detailing paradisal islands we're destined not to go to) – which Bryson manages to do effortlessly, in part by journeying to locations and having the sort of travel experiences that would perhaps befit an episode of Watchdog, resulting in that age-old Britishism 'rather you than me' – is worth their salt. Add in Bryson's customary wit (or maybe cantakerousness), and the outcome is singularly entertaining – for us, if not always for Bryson himself.
Inspired journey
Twenty years on from his breakthrough Notes from a Small Island, The Road to Little Dribbling follows another inspired journey through Bryson's adopted homeland, this time loosely following what is sure to become one of the lineal lynchpins of contemporary geographical understanding, the eponymously labelled Bryson line which denotes the furthest one can travel in Britain in a straight line without crossing salt water and runs from Bognor Regis to Cape Wrath. So much, Bryson tells us, for the rule of law that has the longest distance on the mainland as that between John o'Groats and Land's End, which is only feasible via 'a series of zigzags', a notion Bryson duly does away with in his typically practical manner: 'If you allow zigzags, then you could carom about the country in any pattern you wished and thus make the distance effectively infinite.' Furthermore, the people of Dunnet Head may have something to say about the uppermost point being John o'Groats, given as Bryson explains that it lies at a more northerly reach, as do several 'other nubbins of land'. The Bryson Line then is the answer… well at least for the purposes of the book.
From Bognor to Cape Wrath, Bryson takes in, if not all the UK has to offer, at least a sample, good, bad and plainly ugly. And in the course of his wanderings, muses on the country, its landscapes and people, often shining a light on its foibles and flaws in the way only an adopted son can, with cutting frankness tempered by proud affection. But so too he celebrates its successes, including our universities and cultural heritage. Although there is one thing above all that emerges from Bryson's latest travels, and that is in his appreciation of the natural world. And more than a homage to his adopted country, the book is a homage to Britain's countryside. Though not without warning: 'Britain has about 60 million acres of land and about 60 million people – one acre for each person' – an awe-inspiring thought if ever there was one, yet one that is starkly forebode: 'Every time you give up ten acres of greenfield site to build a superstore, in effect ten people lose their acres.' Bryson's is not a didactic polemic nor a vitriolic attack, it is simply a book that reminds us of all that is unique to 'this precious stone set in the silver sea'. Long may Bryson be able to wander 'this blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England.'

The worst part was that cell service was completely out and I couldn't get in touch with Michael or the kids. It took about 45 minutes to get through and for me to find out that everyone was safe!! What is really strange to me is that we have had 3 aftershocks, though I only felt one of them. I associate those with large earthquakes but apparently they happen after any kind of quake.
As the news winds down about the earthquake, we are preparing for Hurricane Irene to possibly come near our area. Last I heard, it was heading mostly east so we might only get rain…which we need. Oh, and today you can sometimes smell the smoke from the Great Dismal Swamp fires. These are strange times, indeed!!
I have seen some good verses posted after the earthquake but the one I posted on my FB wall was this:
God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging. (Psalm 46:1-3)
The earth might shake but God is ever-present. What a comforting thought!!

Where the Snow Falls (Seasons of Betrayal #2) - London Miller
"Sign your name."
Kaz Markovic grabbed the pen and scrawled his signature across the bottom of the page before his belongings—what little he had on his person before he was brought in—were slid across the counter in a plastic tub.
He barely spared the correctional officer signing him out a glance as he fastened his watch around his wrist, stuffing his wallet and phone into his pocket before heading for the entrance.
Four months.
Four long months behind bars. Had he been able to pay off the right people, the charge would have only meant a slap on the wrist for him, but a single call had taken away those options. Good behavior had reduced his six-month sentence to four, but it was still four months too long.
Whether Kaz liked it or not, Vasily was still the boss, and his word was law. So if Vasily closed those channels, making sure that no one could do a damn thing about getting him out, he had no choice but to wait it out.
By the time he was walking through those frosted double doors, the pressure that had settled in his chest from the moment he had put on that blue uniform had eased. Compared to prison, the county jail was easy—though he never planned to go back to either—but there was nothing like being free and not having someone on his ass every single moment of every single day.
When to eat.
When to sleep.
Around-the-clock monitoring made him feel like he was living beneath a microscope. And it never helped that the guards were always antagonizing, ready to make an example out of him should he break even the smallest of rules. But Kaz knew the score, and he knew better than to let them get under his skin, especially since he didn't want his sentence extended.
Sitting on the hood of a white Bentley outside waiting for him was his oldest sister, Vera—the last person he expected to see. Though she had been raised under the hand of a Russian mob boss, his sister wasn't impressed by their life. She didn't believe in it. Since the minute she turned eighteen and was no longer forced to live under the same roof as Vasily, she had packed her bags, staying as far away from their Bratva roots as she could—and further away from Vasily.
While all of his children—besides the twins—had problems with Vasily for their own reasons, no one hated him quite as much as Vera did.
Once, Kaz had thought to ask her why. It was no secret that they had a strained relationship, but Vera's distaste for their father had only become so openly hostile a couple of years ago. If Vasily called on her, she didn't care who was around to witness it. She made it quite clear she wanted nothing to do with him. But Vera didn't explain her actions, and he had never pushed.
Plus, he understood.
Vasily could test the patience of a saint, but despite his lectures on the importance of family, he didn't follow his own preaching. Like the fact he had set Kaz up.
He'd had an idea, especially after seeing Vera yelling at their father that day, but his suspicions had been confirmed when Vasily had made it a point to visit him in jail. He'd only come that one time, but everything he had said, and even the smug look on his face, told Kaz what he needed to know.
But if he thought Kaz was going to accept what he had done without question, Vasily was mistaken.
"You need a shave," Vera said as she hopped off the car, a smile already forming as she came to him with open arms.
Briefly running a hand through the coarse hair covering his jaw, Kaz accepted her embrace, squeezing her once for good measure. She had been there that day—the day he'd decided to say fuck Vasily's rules and do what he wanted. While his sister might not have understood why he had been willing to risk everything for a girl he hadn't known for very long, she had stood at his side regardless.
"How are you?" he asked, touching the top of her head—something he had done since he had hit a growth spurt and grown several inches taller than she was.
She shrugged, not giving an answer. "Shouldn't I be asking you that?" she asked, circling the car to climb into the driver's seat. "You were the one locked up, after all."
He waved his hand dismissively. Even if his time hadn't been as easy as it

The album opens with an oddly distorted guitar strike amongst vaious noised, then kicks into a full speed hardcore rocker, "Now More Than Ever". This is a song about staying true to yourself, and not compromising despite what people try to make you do. This same sentiment is made clear in "No Compromise". The title track "Few And Far Between" is a great track about people who stay true to the scene, and don't just play the role to look cool. As the song states, "by now we've shown we're here to stay, not just friends we're family, we're few and far between." This band has grown up in the hardcore scene, the people are their families, the clubs are their homes, and the ideals of the community are their laws. It's nice to see such conviction from kids who grew up in the hardcore scene and are now coming into adulthood. "Eyes Wide Open" is about looking out for yourself and not giving in to other people's ideas just to be given a path to take. The intellegence and personal strength of the lyrics are a nice compliment to the songs. As a tribute to their roots and their mentors, Shutdown closes the album with one of the greatest hardcore songs ever, Warzone's "Don't Forget The Struggle, Don't Forget The Streets," this is the greatest tribute a band can give to people who believed in them and helped them get better.
Shutdown has produced a great example of what years of hardwork and knowing your roots can give you. Learning the trade and keeping to the right ideals has helped make Shutdown a legitimate mainstay in the hardcore scene. As former Warzone lead vocalist, Raybeez(RIP) said, "This band is the future of hardcore." And from what this CD shows, the future is still very bright.

You've probably already seen some advertising for online poker. In the last decade or so, it's taken the online world by storm. Millions of participants have played, enjoyed, and won. But that doesn't mean there's no room for newcomers. Poker sites across the internet are always looking for new customers, and offer a variety of benefits and solutions to suit their needs.
You can Play Many Variants, but Texas Hold'em is King
If you've grown up playing poker for small change around you kitchen table, chances are that you're used to playing some form of draw poker. In the current poker world, draw is a very niche game and played by only a handful of competitors. The great thing about online poker is that it unites players all over the world. This means that even for such a niche game that you probably wouldn't find in a land based casino, you can still get your fix online.
However, the massive tournaments and nose-bleed stakes are normally focused on Texas Hold'em. If you haven't played Hold'em before, it's known as the Cadillac of poker and provides unparalleled excitement. The sheer scale of it shouldn't daunt potential newcomers, as it's actually very easy to learn.
Second in popularity to Texas Hold'em is Omaha. Both variants play quite similarly but have a few key differences. Although games such as Stud might have been one of the most popular types of poker throughout the games' history, they now have a much smaller following and are mostly only played by the old guard.
How Does Texas Hold'em Work?
Photo source: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ceslava/3576952698/
In Texas Hold'em a player is dealt two "private" hole cards that nobody else can see. A round of betting ensues (with rotating circulating blinds acting as antes, in order to encourage action). All remaining players then see the "flop", which is where 3 community cards are dealt in the middle of the table. Players can use any combination of their hole cards and the community cards to make the best five-card hand.
After another round of betting, a further fourth community card is dealt, known as the turn. Another round of betting then occurs, before the final river card is dealt. Any players still remaining in the hand after a final round of betting have to show their cards and the best hand takes the pot. Of course, many hands don't even make it to the river, with players folding in prior rounds. You don't even need the best hand to win, as the size of your bets might make other people think that they are beaten, causing them to fold. This is known as bluffing.

One of the most exciting innovations of the online poker world is the ease and availability of poker tournaments. Most online poker sites offer hundreds of tournaments every day, catering to all skill levels and bankrolls.
In a poker tournament, you pay an entry fee and this is generally all you are liable for. You can therefore see how much you are likely to lose before you even play a hand. Players actually compete with virtual chips rather than real money. The aim of the game is to last as long as possible. When your opponents get eliminated, you move closer to winning a prize as the top few places pay out relatively large amounts of money. Normally the top 10% of the field will be "in the money", with the largest prize going to first place.
If you've seen people playing in the World Series of Poker on TV, online poker tournaments follow the same principle. Although thankfully it's much faster online which means a tournament might take a few hours rather than a few days. You might think that the mouth-wateringly big prizes are reserved for live tournaments, but this isn't the case. You can win hundreds of thousands of dollars in online tournaments. You could even win a seat in the WSOP via an online satellite (qualifying tournament).
Whilst most of the best tournaments cost something to enter, new players can learn tournament play through freeroll tournaments. A freeroll offers real cash prizes yet costs nothing to enter.
Another innovation is the Single Table Tournament. This is where 9 or 10 players compete on a single table, with the top 3 winning a prize. Although formats can vary slightly, the pot is normally shared out so that the winner gets 50%, 2nd place 30% and 3rd get 20%. STTs are very popular amongst the new generation as they offer a sample of tournament play whilst only taking up to an hour (compared to a few hours needed for a normal tournament win).
Cash Games
The main alternative to tournament poker is the cash game. This is where you sit at the table with real money, rather than virtual chips. Your stack is a portion of your bankroll and every time you stake it's with an amount of real money.
This might sound daunting but there are a wide range of levels available depending on your needs. Although most tournaments are of the No Limit variety, cash games can also be played with fixed limits. This means that you can't lose your whole stack at once and can only stake fixed amounts.
Most online poker professionals play cash games to make their income. This is because the variance and fluctuations are much lower than in tournaments. It's realistic for a good player to set a target of winning a respectable hourly wage.
Amazing Bonuses are Available
Many sites offer some outstanding bonuses and promotional offers to entice new customers. This means that as a newcomer, you have the advantage in that you can almost get paid to play! Some bonuses will match the amount you deposit, meaning you could double your bankroll before you've even started!
There are also a number of other offers available to new players like special promotional tournaments and rakeback promotions. Some sites will even give you free gifts. There are a multitude of promotional options available to any new player.
The huge growth of online poker has provided many new players with both enjoyment and cash for almost a decade now. It's not too late to start and many new players begin learning the game every day. Poker might be the game for you.

It's been a lovely week on Koh Samui Island, not that we've done much.
It's the Thai New Year Songkran holiday and one of the busiest times of the year for travel.
We've been Island hopping, last week Koh Phangan, the party island
This week the more sophisticated, Bophut Beach on Koh Samui.
I first arrived on the island of Koh Samui in the early 1980's. Back then we seemed to travel for days on the bus, train and a boat to arrive. Now it's less than one hours flight from Bangkok.
It was an idyllic paradise for me, of beach huts under the coconut trees.
It still has its charm, don't you think?
Even though I no longer arrive with my backpack!
We have been back to Koh Samui on several occasions since then, I still love Koh Samui. This time have chosen to stay close to the airport on Bhoput beach and close to Fisherman's village. It was a perfect place for us to kick back relax and unwind. The hardest decision of the day was where to have dinner!
I have been continuing my Blogging From A to Z April (2018) Challenge.
If you would like to see what I have been up to here are the links:
Just why is Thailand known as the land of Smiles, is it because there are so many spa's? This little Wren thinks so!
Did you know you can play golf, inside a race course and that here in Thailand, a day at the races is one of the few places you can legally gamble?
Q is for Quintessentially Bangkok :
Here are a few of my favourite photos from my Bangkok life...
P is for Pat Pong, Private Dancer and a Posse of ladies with intent :
Yep, sorry about this, a bit of an abrupt change of theme from Buddha, but it is about time we talk about the other side of Bangkok!
O is for Orchids in Thailand :
Back to all things lovely, orchids may be exotic the world over but they are cheap as chips here. I bring you some blooming gorgeous orchid flowers today.
Well there we have it, this is was happens when you blog from a paradise island!
Have laptop, can travel.
We're off to Europe today, see you soon
Have a great week!

VATICAN CITY (CNS) — Yearning and loving give people the strength to move forward and overcome obstacles, but Christians must ask themselves what really is their hearts' desire, Pope Francis said.
"All of us have a desire," the pope said Aug. 11 during his midday Angelus address. "Pity the person who doesn't have a desire. Desire moves us forward, toward the horizon, and for us Christians that horizon is an encounter with Jesus, who is our life, our joy, our happiness."
Addressing thousands of pilgrims in St. Peter's Square, the pope asked them to think about what Jesus said to his disciples in the Gospel of Luke: "Where your treasure is, there also will your heart be."
"Do you have a heart that desires or a closed heart, a sleeping heart, an anesthetized heart?" the pope asked. "And what, for you, is the most important, most precious thing, that which attracts your heart like a magnet?"
Many people would respond that their family is the most important thing, he said. That's good, but "what is the force that holds your family together? It's love, and the one who sows love in our hearts is God."
Pope Francis told the crowd that God's love gives meaning to all the daily tasks in a Christian's life, and it is what helps people face trials.
"To move forward in life with love, with that love that the Lord has sown in our hearts, with the love of God — that is a true treasure," he said.
After reciting the Angelus with those in the square, Pope Francis told them he also wanted to extend his greetings to "Muslims throughout the world, our brothers and sisters, who have just celebrated the end of the month of Ramadan, which is dedicated in a special way to fasting, prayer and almsgiving."
Pope Francis had written a message to the world's Muslims for their celebration of Eid al-Fitr Aug. 7-8, marking the end of the month of fasting.
Echoing the theme of the message, he told the crowd in St. Peter's Square that he hoped "Christians and Muslims will work together to promote mutual respect," especially through the way they educate the younger generation.

Saving energy and money are major concerns for homeowners. Many believe that replacing a home's air conditioning & heating system, windows, and water heater are the only solutions to lowering energy consumption. If you have a tight budget and would like to save some money on your next energy bill, here are a few free solutions to get you started:
When devices—such as lamps and television sets—are placed too close to a thermostat, it can cause the reading of the room temperature to be higher than the true temperature, triggering excessive cooling. This is due to heat emitted from these items when in use, so be sure to place them a few feet away from your thermostat to ensure the most accurate reading.
Adjust your thermostat setting a few degrees higher (to about 78 or 80 degrees Fahrenheit) when you leave your house. This will save you energy and money on your next energy bill. If you're worried about your home feeling uncomfortable after increasing your thermostat, ceiling fans help by circulating cool air around the room and use less energy than a light bulb.
Develop Energy Saving Habits
Developing the following energy saving habits can also save money on your next energy bill:
• Turn off lights and electronics when not in use
• Close blinds and curtains during the hottest part of the day
• Use compact fluorescent light bulbs
• Power down desktop computers
By following these tips, you'll see results on your energy bill as well as your bank account. However, for the bigger issues—such as AC/Heating replacement or tune-ups—Airmax is here to help.
Benefits of Annual AC Tune-Ups
Not only can an annual AC tune-up from Airmax save you as much as 30 percent on your monthly energy costs, but it could also save you hundreds of dollars (and hours of stress) by locating and letting you fix any potential issues with your air conditioning system before they become major problems.
In addition to the cost saving benefits, an AC tune-up will ensure that your air conditioning system runs cleanly and efficiently all season long. The steps of our AC tune-up include:
• Checking thermostat calibration
• Monitoring refrigerant pressure
• Testing the air conditioner's starting capabilities
• Testing the air conditioner's safety controls
• Cleaning and/or replacement of standard air filters
• Cleaning and adjustment of blower components
• Air flow testing and correction
• Tightening electrical connections
• Volt and amp measurement
• Lubrication of all moving parts
• Cleaning condensate drain
• Measuring temperature difference between supply air and return air
• Application of protective coating
• Monitoring cooling cycle
• Inspecting evaporator coil
• Examining installation quality
• Examining equipment condition area and clearances
• Cleaning condenser coil


text: I was wondering, does anybody know if an employer can fire someone and not pay them their last paycheck if the employee was still paying off a company loan? The agreement we had was to pay $250/wk until it was paid off, which I still plan on paying back at the agreed upon amount. However, can they change that agreement and take my entire check to pay the loan off? If someone has some insight I would really appreciate it.

I'm hoping this does get off the ground, having a fast and exciting open wheel series is what this country has been lacking. I'm still a little bit doubtful that this will work considering how dead open wheel racing has been in Australia for the past 20 years or so, and also because we already have the Supercars, GT3 and Carrera Cup. I imagine it could become very expensive too, so they will have to be careful in that regard.Formula Thunder 5000, Super5000 join forces
Formula Thunder 5000 and Super5000 founders will join forces to work together on developing a Formula 5000 single seater to be raced next year.
Australian open wheel racing had been set for conflict with two Formula 5000 series vying for customers for new single seater series.
Former racer and publisher Chris Lambden announced plans for his Formula Thunder 5000 category last year, which saw him develop an all-new V8 powered car based around a Swift chassis.
However, this looked set to be rivalled by the Supercars backed Super5000 series with the launch of its new bespoke racer, powered by Supercars' V8 engines and transaxles, last month.
In a bid to ensure a Formula 5000 series returns to Australian soil, Formula Thunder 5000 boss Lambden and Super5000 backer and Wilson Security boss John McMellan have decided to align the two projects.
The move arrives following a meeting between the two facilitated by veteran racer John Bowe.
As a result, a new Formula 5000 car will be developed incorporating beneficial technical elements from both the Formula Thunder 5000 and Super5000 cars.
Work has already commenced on the merged project under the overarching Super5000 project umbrella, with further testing and development planned for both chassis as part of a detailed technical evaluation.
It is anticipated that a combination of elements of both projects along with some new enhancements will result in a revised final technical specification, which will be revealed in the coming months.
"This is the significant step forward which will allow the concept of a modern 5000-style race car and series to actually happen, and happen well, which is what we both started out to do," said Lambden.
"I am more than pleased with the way we have been able to reach this solution, which I happily endorse and support.
"I'd like to thank John Bowe who, knowing all the parties involved, organised an initial meeting with John McMellan (Wilson).
"It was from this meeting that John McMellan basically said 'Let's just get this sorted and find the solution to work together.'
"He then coordinated bringing all the relevant parties together and from there it all came together very quickly and easily.
"The one thing that became apparent quite soon was that we all are primarily what I'd call 'motorsport people', and our motivation for getting into all this was the same. It didn't take that long to agree a sensible way forward.
"I'd really like to acknowledge and thank everyone who has supported our efforts to date and reassure them that this outcome will result in a '5000-style' race car and series that will be well worth coming to see."
McMellan believes the decision to join forces will result in a successful V8 powered open wheel racing series.
"I think it's important to highlight that the team at PAYCE, who are involved in the development of the Super5000, have been responsible for the progress that has been made in getting both parties aligned," said McMellan.
"I merely assisted in the parties coming together after JB and I met with Chris. This decision to work together is a credit to their vision and flexibility.
"It's also good to have Chris on board, who will play a role in the ongoing technical discussion.
"An outcome such as this will only result in a better outcome both commercially and technically as well as for the sport.
"The project team will take the best elements of both designs and thinking along with some other new thoughts to ensure we have a stand-out category that results in exciting, fast and action-packed open-wheeler racing."
It is anticipated that Formula 5000 cars will be racing midway through the 2018 campaign.
In any case whatever car they come up with should be seriously quick, considering it will most likely have 500+ hp and a pretty low weight given that it's an open wheeler. I think that should draw in good drivers (though I suppose the top drivers will be more or less locked away in the and help generate more interest in the crowds then Formula 3 and 4 have in the past.
