The Ashes series is upon us



History is certainly against the prospect of a sweep. In the last six Cricket Ashes Tour   series played in England, only once has one of the nations failed to win a Test match, way back in 1989 where Australia once again rose to prominence after a number of years in struggle town. Throughout the entire Shane Warne-Glenn McGrath era, where Australia were the most dominant cricket team in history, Australia did not hold England scoreless with England winning two Tests in 1997 and 2005 and once in each of the 1993 and 2001 series.

Historically, a shutout in a five-Test series is a rarity and that is even more of a truism in an Ashes series where both teams attack the Test matches like a grand final.

Bryce Jordan Center


Bryce Jordan Center is a 15,261-seat multi-purpose arena in University Park, Pennsylvania. The arena opened in 1995 and is the largest such venue between Philadelphia and Pittsburgh. It is home to the Penn State University Nittany Lions men's and women's basketball team and for the men, their student section, Nittany Nation. It also plays host to a number of events such as music concerts, circuses, and commencement ceremonies for colleges within the university.

The arena is located across the street from Beaver Stadium on Curtin Road, on the eastern part of the campus. This part of campus is home to many of the school's athletic facilities, including the recently built Medlar Field at Lubrano Park baseball facility and Jeffrey Field soccer stadium. There is a large electronic display outside the arena which provides advertisements for future events. The university also recently contracted with ANC Sports to install over 900 feet of LED ribbon board signage to be used for sponsor advertisements and game prompts.

Online Poker

The numbers of people playing poker online constantly grows, as well as the number of online poker sites. But strategy for poker at a whole is still only in its adolescence.

The first thing to understand about online poker is that it's not the same as brick & mortar casino poker. While the rules are generally the same, but the games play differently. The major difference for this is that there is a complete lack of visual tells online. Which means that online players must bet to gain information about their hand. As these type of information is available to casino players from visual clues easily. This imply that there are many more probe bets made online, which in turn leads to probe raises. The end result is that there is generally more action online than you will find in a brick and mortar casino. I’m not saying one is better than the other, or necessarily more or less profitable. They are just different in fundamental ways.

Many of the abilities needed to win in casino poker of course also exist in online poker. You still need good starting cards... you still shouldn't tilt... you still shouldn't play at a level you can't afford, and so on. I'm not going to reinvent the wheel on that stuff.
