Bridge: Oct. 13, 2023

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 22:13:48 GMT

I read that a “snail’s pace,” for an average snail, is about three inches per minute, or fast enough to outrace a five-year-old kid to bed. A bridge deal takes on average seven minutes. A complex deal — or one that’s error-filled — may take longer.Against today’s two spades, West led the jack of diamonds: queen, king, three. East took the ace and ten, and then play slowed to the proverbial pace while he wondered what to do next.When East finally led a fourth diamond, West ruffed South’s seven, but South overruffed in dummy and led the queen of trumps. East took his ace and got his ace of hearts later, but South made his contract.THIRD TRICKEast’s defense was sluggish; after Trick Three, it was too late for him to ponder. After East takes the K-A of diamonds, he must lead a low diamond. West ruffs and shifts to a trump, and East wins and leads another trump.South draws trumps, but when he leads a heart, East takes the ace and cash...

Fog of War: The Media and the Israel–Palestine Conflict

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 22:13:48 GMT

This week on Deconstructed, Ryan Grim is joined by Intercept reporter Alice Speri, who has frequently reported from occupied Palestinian territory, and Palestinian American writer and political analyst Yousef Munayyer. Speri and Munayyer discuss the history behind the violence that exploded Saturday, with Hamas capturing and killing an unprecedented number of Israelis, including hundreds of civilians. They also examine the current spread of misinformation during the conflict, how the media has historically ignored violence perpetrated by Israel, and how the impunity surrounding many of those attacks by Israeli forces has given the government freedom to collectively punish Palestinian civilians broadly in revenge for the assault by Hamas.Transcript coming soon. The post Fog of War: The Media and the Israel–Palestine Conflict appeared first on The Intercept.

Springboks pull surprise with Reinach at No. 9 for Rugby World Cup quarterfinal vs. France

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 22:13:48 GMT

PARIS (AP) — South Africa provided a big surprise on Friday by naming Cobus Reinach to start at scrumhalf ahead of regular Faf de Klerk in the Rugby World Cup quarterfinal against France, likely pitting him against the best player in the world if Antoine Dupont returns from injury to lead the host team.Reinach will partner Manie Libbok, who retained his place as first-choice flyhalf for the defending champion Springboks despite 2019 World Cup winner Handre Pollard’s call-up to the squad.Pollard, de Klerk and Willie le Roux are the three backs on the bench as South Africa went with a traditional 5-3 split in the reserves.Reinach has scored four tries at the tournament but his job on Sunday may largely revolve around keeping Dupont in check.Dupont sustained a facial fracture against Namibia three weeks ago and had surgery but has been cleared to return to full-contact training and the French are hopeful their tactical genius can play at Stade de France. France is expected to nam...
