‘Muzungu’ takes a fascinating trip to Rwanda

My husband and I recently spent a month in Rwanda, visiting his parents who have been Baptist missionaries there for 35 years. For my husband it was a trip home, a chance to be in familiar places, to be known, and to exhale. For me it was a chance to know my husband better by experiencing where he grew up, to be on vacation for a month, to spend the holidays with my in-laws as our gracious hosts, and to explore a new country.

‘Dummy points’ a valuable asset

We now explore an interesting hand that is a little short on high card points (HCP's), but holds a valuable asset called “dummy points,” which is shortness in a side-suit. Dummy should value a side-suit doubleton at one extra point, a singleton at three extra points and a void at five extra points. The reason shortness in a side-suit is important is that dummy is able to convert some of declarer's losing tricks into winners by trumping them in dummy - a pretty good feature to have.

Construction continues despite ‘drought alert’

“Why are we continuing to build and we're in a drought? I got my water bill today and it said ‘drought alert.’ Why would the city allow people to keep building houses so they can spread what little water we have for the community members who live here to use? As a tax paying community member, I'm not happy about that. If we're in a drought, don't add more people. We need to get some fresh people in there making the decisions. They need to halt all that building.”
