strong sides: Campbell (regular season champions) and Mercer (runner-up in the last conference tournament). We knew the importance of the games and the whole team was pretty focused. It was a week for really hard work targeting those two games. Thursday was game day and we were all excited to start conference (our main goal this season). It was a rainy day and the game started out really intense with both teams going forward and trying to create chances. We had the most part of possession and we were

a great plan for the lesson. Pros: 1. Most kids really enjoy the "game" aspect of a competition. Fun = good for learning. 2. This is a great way to get the students to actively participate in the class. They get really involved, and just from the involvement they learn more than they would have by sitting and just passively listening. 3. Great for the bright and fast kids. If they're usually on the border of boredom, a game / competition will get them motivated to start thinking again. 4. Lets

Mahjong: more than just a game... Mahjong is an inextricable part of Chinese cultural consciousness along with fireworks, red lanterns, and pandas. While not everyone knows how to play, you cannot find a person who hasn’t heard of it, and would be hard-pressed to find a Chinese household that doesn’t have a boxed set of mahjong tiles stashed away deep in a closet. Over the last century mahjong itself has changed very little and its position in the Chinese culture pantheon is indisputably secure

I wish Stern would string together games that have engaging gameplay, innovation, amusing quotes, and (dare I say it) clever and polished code. They can do it! They have had flashes of greatness and have made a handful of games that can stand side by side unashamed with the B/W greats. But unless LFS was involved in the game in a major way as of late, you can just about forget about the game being enjoyable. And maybe move forward of the 90s with the overall presentation of the pin.

mood, depending on the weather usually. Don’t be afraid though, they are very friendly. Once you have gotten into the game then finding your seat could be the hardest part seeing as there are only 20,000 seats. Many people spend half the game looking for their seats. Once you have found you’re seat then you will be so hungry that you must go get some food. The food of a baseball game could cost you a pretty penny, but it is well worth it. Whether it’s a man who has over priced beer or a cotton candy

Children like to play as there is no "right way" or "wrong way", they can use their imagination to develop games and interact with each other without being in an adult-led environment. While watching my daughters (ages 4 & 2) playing with their toys, and seeing how careless and free they seem, they remind me the memories of my childhood. I can still memorize those careless days and happy games with my siblings & friends. I completely agree that these years are the most joyful time in one's life. It
