Becket's Bridge 1 Bidding and Part Scores
In bridge analysis, reverse reasoning shows that facing an opponent's opening bid with a weak hand and partner under 13 points means no game is likely. The focus shifts to choosing the best part score, considering partner's two-diamond response promises 10 or more points.
Bidding Quiz and a good suit in bridge
A bridge guide outlines three bidding scenarios. First pass on two diamonds when no better contract seems available. Second bid four spades, citing partner’s near guaranteed nine tricks and possible holdings like KQJ85 and AK92 to justify game. Third, raise to four hearts despite three small hearts, trusting partner’s likely five solid hearts and chances for a game.

Court upholds block on FCC media ownership overhaul
A 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia voided the FCC sweeping media ownership changes aimed at allowing more TV and radio concentration in markets. The ruling keeps the September block in place but allows repeal of the newspaper TV cross ownership ban, with judges debating numeric limits and diversity vs. consolidation. Public interest groups hailed the decision as protecting democratic values and media plurality.
