Writer's Block, Feature, The Sum of its Letters, Scrabble Isn’t Just a Game about Words - Spring 2004 Scrabble contains two basic mathematical elements: the element of probability—the ability of players to keep track of what letters have been played in the game and anticipate which ones their opponent likely has; and what Stefan Fatsis, the author of Word Freak, an exploration of tournament Scrabble, calls the geometry of the board. It is generally considered impolite to talk during a tournament game unless it is pertinent to the score or the play. All of these additional words should make serious Scrabble players happy, even if it means revising their word lists and memorizing new words, because more words can only increase the probability of creating words, scoring points, and winning games. www.writersblock.ca /spring2004/feature.htm   (2433 words)

TIME Asia Magazine: A War of Words Over 'Singlish' -- Jul. 29, 2002 For more than two years now, it has been waging a war of words spearheaded by the Speak Good English Movement (SGEM), which organizes everything from creative writing to Scrabble contests in order to encourage standard English. Jiat gentang describes someone who speaks with a pretentious Western accent (since potatoes are considered a European food), as in "He went to Oxford to study, now he come back to Singapore, only know how to jiat gentang." As for "talking cock," the phrase means to spout nonsense. Singapore's government wants its citizens to speak good English, but they would much rather be 'talking cock' www.time.com /time/asia/magazine/article/0,13673,501020729-322685,00.html   (283 words)

News & Features The music man But those who think Roger Brown’s move to Berklee represents an anomalous leap into the music world need only listen to him talk about his lifelong interest in and love for music to understand why he’s so happy to be right where he is. His daughter, my grandmother, was a fantastic pianist, and from [my] youngest age she would accompany me on piano and I would sing, and then I started playing drums and I would play with her, and that was the way we related, by playing music together and playing Scrabble together. Not all of us are going to be that, but we can be the music teachers, we can be the music therapists, we can run the record companies that are going to rebuild the music industry, which is crumbling right before us. www.bostonphoenix.com /boston/news_features/qa/multi_1/documents/04284649.asp   (1130 words)

It wouldve been quite fitting if Tom Cruise had decided to become Buddhist shortly after his divorce.

Weekend Pundit By merely acknowledging the truth of black crime, as talk show host Bill Bennett did in a reductio ad absurdum argument against abortion, inspired by the book Freakonomics, which purports crime is down because of abortion, we see this irrational hatred of the messenger (scroll down for examples). Well, turn the clock a couple of decades to 1967 and to a poor, hard-working and -scrabble white immigrant named Krikor Messerlian, who gets beaten to death during the July 1967 Detroit riots by psycopathic black youths while attempting to defend himself, and there's nothing known about him. The black men were almost treated to a "To Kill a Mockingbird" treatment in the Jim Crow-like courts. weekendpundit.blogmosis.com   (6289 words)

Samuel’s Blog This is very poor form 2UE, you are treating your listeners with contempt, and if you keep playing games of Schedule Scrabble you will lose an awful lot of listeners to stations like 2GB who seem to be able to maintain a schedule for more than one moon phase.

Harry Reid Reid likes to talk about his hard-scrabble roots in Searchlight, a Mojave Desert gold camp that went from boom to bust around the turn of the last century but continued to survive. Reid was always on the Senate floor, frequently talking earnestly with Republicans as well as Democrats, rarely appearing to do anything particularly exciting. Until recently, Reid was known -- to the extent that he was known at all outside Nevada and the Senate -- largely for his dogged efforts to keep his home state from being turned into the nation's nuclear waste dump, including unpopular but ultimately successful filibusters. www.harryreid.com /media.php?mediaid=6   (998 words)
