I am new reader to your blog and impressed with finding some important topics here. The brilliant focuses you elaborated regarding the sick leave and comprehensive leave are incredibly useful and praiseworthy. Huge remarkable points you picked up and it's very knowledgeable and educative too. Anyway, are holidays and weekend days included in sick leave? By the way, <a href="https://unfairdismissalsaustralia.com.au/sick-leave/" rel="nofollow">What is Sick Leave</a> actually means? Can an employer sack an employee despite having on longer sick leave?

They are only bad once you get 10. If the last digit of the number of bags you would get the rest of the game is uniformly distributed (probably not exactly right, but it's close enough), four extra bags only sets you back another hundred points 40% of the time. You seem to acknowledge this point somewhat, and we can both agree that spades is a very complex game!

The best way to think of this is to look at the total delta in score (your score delta minus the opponent's score delta) after the round is over, counting a sandbag as -9 points (+1 for the bag, -1/10th of the 100 penalty). Granted, this still doesn't take into account how close you are to the 500 point end-game criteria but it is far more accurate if the game were infinitely repeated or if it is early in the game.<br /><br />The more accurate trick preferences for this bid, with the net score deltas are:<br /><br />7 - +67<br />11 - +64<br />12 - +55<br />8 - +49<br />13 - +46<br />9 - +31<br />10 - +13<br />0 - -10<br />1 - -19<br />2 - -28<br />3 - -37<br />4 - -46<br />5 - -55<br />6 - -64kerpowskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08773087766784753120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6525425772304841899.post-68477984942663677002011-05-11T01:45:33.416-07:002011-05-11T01:45:33.416-07:00Good to see you blogging again!Good to see you blogging again!Late-night readernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6525425772304841899.post-33039995167062104832011-02-16T16:20:43.653-08:002011-02-16T16:20:43.653-08:00Adam G you are mistaken.

It may be true that Jennings' past winning is less impressive due to his button pressing skills, but no human could ever be a match for a computer programmed for "instant reflexes". If you read the article, the gist of it is that all three competitors know most of the answers, but Watson will win because he is programmed to hit the button perfectly. And I would even wager that on the questions he doesn't answer first, he was 'programmed' to not answer instantly - just to make the game appear more fair.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02893140483246786964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6525425772304841899.post-4615244044074355602011-02-16T15:05:01.525-08:002011-02-16T15:05:01.525-08:00It's actually *not* good television.
