NBA Player Prop Rule
Player to Score the Most Points Props will only consider the players listed for the specific day's games. In case of a tie between 2 or more players the wager is no action.
Major League Baseball games are official after 5 innings of play, or 4½ innings if the home team is leading. If a game is subsequently called or suspended, the winner is determined by the score after the last full inning unless the home team ties the score or takes the lead in the bottom half of the inning in which the game was suspended. In that case the winner will be determined by the score at the time the game is called. (This rule holds for betting purposes even if the game is suspended and /or completed on a different day than it began).
When wagering on total runs or run lines, the game must go the regulation 9 innings, or 8½ innings if the home team is leading, otherwise it will constitute a 'no-action' wager, and all money will be credited accordingly.
When you place a "money line" wager on baseball you can choose whether or not you would like your bet to have action in the event of a pitching change. The options are:
Listed: both listed pitchers must start.
Selected: the pitcher for the team on which you are betting must start.
Opposing: the pitcher for the opposing team must start.
Action: your bet will have action regardless of pitching changes.
Note:If there is a pitching change and you have selected to keep action on the wager, the odds of your bet will be adjusted to the odds as they stand when the game begins.
All other baseball wagers are accepted as 'Listed.' In the event of a pitching change prior to the game, all wagers on the game with said listed pitchers are considered 'no-action'. All wagers will be refunded to members´ accounts as soon as official confirmation is received allowing you to make the bet again with the new pitcher and the new price if you so wish. Starting pitchers must throw at least one pitch for wager to be deemed 'Action'. Each team´s starting pitcher is defined for betting purposes as the pitcher who throws the first pitch.
Any and all baseball series wagers must have all 3 games played by the end of a specified date for the wager to have action. If all 3 games are not played by that specified date then all wagers have 'no-action', regardless if one team has 2 wins. All 3 games must be official by Las Vegas Gaming Standards (see our rules regarding baseball wagers and what constitutes an official result).
Note:Each team's starting pitcher is defined for betting purposes as the pitcher that throws the first pitch.
Note:If we provide a baseball series price for a series that has 4 games, for grading purposes, the wager is based on the initial 3 games.
All baseball props must go the full 9 innings (8½ if the home team is winning) unless otherwise stated.
They also must start with the listed pitchers. If a game is suspended and/or completed on a different day than it began, props will be graded 'no-action' unless otherwise stated.
In baseball, all games that go at least the full 9 innings and finish tied as a result of a suspension of play, shall be graded as a push on all money line bets. However, all run line and total bets will have action. Note that this is an extremely rare occurrence. In the event of a change in Las Vegas rules, 1Vice Sportsbook & Casino will adhere to the decision set forth in Las Vegas.
'First Five Innings Bets' are accepted as 'listed pitchers' and the game must go a full 5 innings to have action regardless if the game is called or postponed after the 5th inning.
'Team to Score First' props are accepted as 'listed pitchers' and will be graded as soon as the first team has scored and the home team has had a turn at bat. If the home team scores first, that bet will be graded at that time and bets are action regardless of game suspension or postponement. If the visiting team scores first, the bet will be graded once the home team has completed its turn at bat.
'Will there be a Score in the First Inning?' props are accepted as 'listed pitchers' and will be graded as soon as the first inning ends. All bets will be action regardless of game suspension or postponement, as long as the first inning is completed.
'Total Runs + Hits + Errors' props are accepted as 'listed pitchers' and the game must go the full 9 innings (8½ if the home team is winning) for bets to have action.
For 'In-Game Betting' games must go a full 8½ innings for bets to have action.
Baseball Player and Pitcher Props are accepted as 'listed pitchers'. The game must go a full 9 innings (8½ if the home team is winning) for bets to have action. If there is a pitching change, all player props for that game will be closed immediately. When the game starts and it is confirmed that a pitcher other than the pitcher listed on the bet threw out the first pitch, those props will have 'no-action'. (If the game is suspended and/or completed on a different day than it began, Player/Pitcher Props will have 'no-action').
When choosing Action (team against team, regardless of the starting pitchers) there might be an adjustment on the price if the starting pitcher does not start the game since the original price was based on the listed pitcher starting the game.
Baseball Grand Salami: The Baseball Grand Salami will be decided by the total runs scored in all major-league games scheduled for that day. All scheduled games must go at least 9 innings (8.5 if the home team is winning). If any scheduled game is canceled or stopped before the completion of 8.5 innings, all wagers on the Baseball Grand Salami will be canceled. No pitchers will be listed for the Grand Salami; all wagers will have action regardless of the starting pitchers.
Game and Team Totals Odd or Even – bets are 'listed pitchers'. If there is no score all bets will be settled as even.
Other Baseball Tournaments or Leagues
For NCAA Baseball games or any other non-MLB league pitchers are generally not listed or required.
Moneyline bets (and total and/or runline bets, if offered) will be scored in accordance with MLB rules except pitching changes will not affect the bet.
If pitchers are listed, games will be treated in exactly the same way as MLB game.
Soccer Rules
All soccer bets (except those on Under 17s matches) will be settled on 90 minutes of play. This includes any time added by the referee in respect of injuries and other stoppages. In major knock-out tournaments, for example the latter stages of the World Cup, where a winner is required in order to progress to the next leg, bets are still settled on 90 minutes of play. Extra Time, Golden Goals and Penalty Shoot-Outs do not count.
Bets on Under 17s Soccer matches will be settled on 80 minutes of play plus any time added by the referee in respect of injuries and other stoppages.
Match details, such as dates and kick-off times, displayed on the website are for guidance only and may be amended or taken off the board at any time. Soccer bets will have no-action if the match is officially postponed with no make-up date announced or if the make-up date is more than 48 hours away.
If a match is abandoned and/or suspended all bets shall be void unless the relevant wagering option has already been decided. For example, a bet on the 'First Goal Scorer' will stand if a goal has already been scored.
For betting purposes, the winner of an event will be determined on the date of the event's conclusion. We do not recognize suspended games, protests, scoring amendments, result reversals or overturned decisions.
Where a venue is changed, bets will stand unless the game is to be played at the original away team's ground in which case all bets will be voided.
Bets are on 90 minutes of play plus any time added by the referee in respect of injuries and other stoppages. If, after 90 minutes of play, the game ends in a draw/tie, the selections team A to win and team B to win will be considered losing bets.
For some matches there may also be a proposition available called 'Draw No Bet'. Bets taken on this prop must predict which team wins the match in regular time (90 minutes plus any time added by the referee in respect of injuries and other stoppages). In the event of the match ending in a draw (tie), bets on this proposition will be 'no action'.
Soccer parlays: When you parlay multiple games together, you must correctly predict the outcome of all games in the parlay in order to collect any winnings. If a game ends in a draw but you have not selected a draw as the outcome, this would count as a loss on that selection (and the whole parlay). You cannot mix money lines and totals in a soccer parlay.
Bets taken on 'Half Time Results' will be settled on 45 minutes of the first half plus any added injury time or stoppage time.
Bets taken on '2nd Half Lines' will be settled on the 45 minutes of the second half plus any added injury or stoppage time. Extra Time, Golden Goals and Penalty Shoot-Outs do not count. Goals scored in the first half do not count toward the second half wager.
'Goal Scorer Match Bet' odds are based on how one person/team will compare with another in the same or a similar event. The two selections do not necessarily have to play each other in a win/lose situation; the grading is determined by one selection's relative performance to the other. For tournaments, both players must take part in at least one game in the tournament, else all bets are void. Goals scored during penalty shoot outs do not count. If players tie, all bets are void. (Bets are based on 90 minutes play only plus injury time).
Future bets placed on 'Odds to Win' must predict the team winning the division, league or any other tournament and will be paid as soon as the said division, league or tournament has finished.
Bets taken on 'Correct Score' must predict the match score at the end of regular time (90 minutes plus any time added by the referee in respect of injuries and other stoppages).
Bets taken on 'Double Chance' must predict the outcome of the match based on three selections, either:
the Home or Away team wins,
the Home team wins or draws or
the Away team wins or draws.
Bets taken on 'Half with Most Goals' must predict which half has most goals scored by either team in regular time (90 minutes plus any time added by the referee in respect of injuries and other stoppages).
When betting on 'Double Result' (half time – full time) you must predict the result at half time and at the end of normal time (90 minutes).
When betting on 'Goals: odds or even' you must predict if the total score by both teams ends up as an odd or an even number. A 0-0 score counts as an even number. Bets will be settled on 90 minutes of play plus any time added by the referee in respect of injuries and other stoppages.
Bets taken on 'Kick Off Bet' must predict which team will kick-off the match. Odds will be taken off the board 15 minutes before the match's starting time.
For the 'Goal/No Goal' bet you can choose to wager on either 'Goal' for both teams to score, or 'No Goal' for either or both teams not to score.
When betting on 'Soccer Special Props' or 'Match Specials' you are required to predict the team or teams to win the game, event, tournament, competitions, match-up or any other situation within the game. Any cancelled or postponed game will cause the entire event to have 'no action'. Soccer Specials will be settled on 90 minutes of play.
When betting on 'Asian Handicap' you are essentially betting on a point (or goal) spread. Asian Handicap offers only two betting options rather than the three possible outcomes normally offered on a soccer game (namely home, away or draw).
A +0.5 (1.95)
B -0.5 (1.95)
In this example, if you bet on team A they must win or draw the match for you to win your bet. If you bet on team B they must win by at least one goal for you to win your bet.
Betting on one of just two outcomes makes things simpler and it also allows you to get a better price when betting on the favorite. Where offered, the Asian handicap will always include a half-ball, i.e. the spread will be +/- 0.5, +/- 1.5 or higher. All Asian Handicap bets are based on regular time (90 minutes plus any time added by the referee in respect of injuries and other stoppages).
Soccer player props like "Player to score the first goal, last goal and first goal for their team" will be settled on 90 minutes of play. Extra Time and Penalty Shoot-Outs do not count towards the wager.
A yellow card counts as one point and a red card counts as two points. The maximum number of points that a player can receive during a game is three (one for a yellow and two for a red, the second yellow card does not count).
Any bookings to a non-player do not count towards the wager.
Extra time does not count nor do cards shown after the final whistle count towards the wager.
Penalties means betting on a penalty being awarded and taken during a game. Penalty Awarded means betting to predict whether a penalty will be awarded in a game, the options available are "Yes" or "No".
Penalty Shootouts means betting on which team will win the penalty shootout. In spread betting the result includes all penalties taken in the shootout, including sudden death. When betting the total the result only includes the regulation ten penalties in the shootout and does not include sudden death.
Clean Sheets means betting "Yes" on a team to keep a clean sheet (not to concede a goal) or "No" on a team to keep a clean sheet (to concede a goal).
To win to nil means to predict if a team can win the game without conceding a goal after regulation time, excluding extra time or penalty shootouts.
For wagers referring to tournaments, goals scored in extra time will count.
Soccer Asian Handicaps (Alternative Lines)
An Asian handicap is a type of wager where a handicap is applied to the match in order to make the prices more equal.
The favorite in a game will have a negative handicap represented with a (-) symbol and will have to win by more goals than the handicap in order to be a winner.
The underdog in the game will receive a positive handicap represented with a (+) symbol which will be added to the final score.
The handicap will be added to one side only.
There are three types of Asian handicap:
Whole ball handicap (for example: -0,-1,-2).
Half ball handicaps (for example: -0.5, -1.5, -2.5).
Split ball handicaps (for example: 0 and -0.5, -0.5 and -1, -1 and -1.5). A split ball is an offering between a half ball and a whole ball, the wager is being split equally between the whole ball and half ball handicaps. The display of 0 and -0.5 ball handicap will show as -0.25 ball handicap.
For an in-depth explanation on how asian handicaps work please visit the following link.
For corner kick props on soccer, "Bets on number of corners" refers to number of corner kicks taken and not corner kicks awarded.
Hockey Rules

Overtime: For wagering on games in the National Hockey League, the final score includes overtime. Regardless of the number of goals scored during the shootout portion of overtime, the final score recorded for the game will give the winning team one more goal than the score at the end of regulation time.
Personal Player Stats and other Stats achieved during an NHL Shootout are not taken into account for certain proposition bets, for example: Player Total Shot on Goals, Player Total Points, Player Total Goals, Team to Score First, Team to Score Last.

For tournament match-up betting, both players listed in the match-up must tee-off for your bet to be deemed 'Action'. The player with the most completed holes wins. If the players complete the same number of holes, then the player with the lowest score wins. If the players are still tied then the wager shall be deemed 'no-action' and all monies will be refunded. If both golfers in a match-up are in a playoff, the winner of play-off wins the match-up.
Should a tournament be shortened, or otherwise affected, due to weather conditions the official result will be used when settling, regardless of the number or rounds played. However, should there be no further play after a bet is struck that bet will be void.
Single day match-ups are wagers on the particular day's 18-holes. Single Day match-ups do not include holes played as part of a completion from the previous day's round or playoff holes considered part of the overall tournament score. Should a day's round be shortened, or otherwise affected, due to weather conditions and the round is continued the next day, the full 18 holes shall be considered in determining the outcome of the bet even if they are played over two days. Both golfers must tee off for action. If both players end the 18 holes in a tie, the money line wagers shall be refunded and stroke line wagers will be deemed 'Action'.
All round match-ups have action regardless of the date the golfers begin/complete the round.
The golfer to complete more holes in a tournament or single round match-up is the winner. If golfers both complete the same number of holes, the golfer with the lower score is the winner.
Golf Odds to Win: Wagers on a golfer who does not play in the tournament are graded as 'no-action' and all monies refunded (unless otherwise specified). A golfer is deemed to have played once he or she has teed off. In the event of a player withdrawing after having teed off, wagers on that player will be lost.
Stroke Line Betting: In golf the lower score wins. If you bet (-1/2) stroke, your golfer must shoot 1 or more shots lower than the opponent. If you bet (+1/2) your golfer must shoot the same score or a lower score than the opponent. Example: should you bet Singh (-1/2) vs. Mickelson and Singh shoots 69, Mickelson 70, then Singh (-1/2) is the winner. If Singh shoots 69 and Mickelson shoots 69, then Mickelson (+1/2) is the winner.
Rules for Finishing Top 3: In the case of a tie or multiple players finishing in the top 3 position, wagers will be paid using our Dead Heat Rule.
For Tennis Match betting, at least two full sets must be completed for wagers to stand. If less than two sets are completed then all wagers will be considered no action.

In the event of any of the following circumstances, all bets will stand:
A change of playing surface
A change of venue

For a motor sports match-up to be deemed 'Action' both drivers must start the race. The start of any motor race is defined as the signal to start the warm-up lap. The official winner at the conclusion of the race will be the winner for betting purposes. In League Championship wagering, drivers must race in at least one race during the season to be deemed 'Action'.
The NASCAR.com website is our official source for the grading of all NASCAR wagers. The race must complete the scheduled number of laps and/or distance for specific proposition wagers (pertaining to number of laps and/or distance) to be deemed 'Action'. Match-ups, finishing position props and future wagers will still have action regardless.
POSTPONEMENTS: If a race or qualifier is cancelled or postponed for any reason, all wagers will remain valid for 48 hours. If the postponement lasts more than 48 hours, all wagers will be cancelled and all wagers on the event/driver will be refunded.

If an alternate driver replaces a driver during the race, then the new driver will replace the old driver in all matchups and props.
Some driver vs. driver match ups may have a handicap. Example ( If Kyle Bush is -2.5 positions against another driver that means Kyle Bush must win that match up by 3 positions or more from where they finish at the race's conclusion.)

Old Faithful – A 1970 Toyota Corona
Everything is subject to depreciation. What use to be new, quickly gets old soon as the excitement is gone. And after it was driven to the moon and back, it becomes just another ordinary possession in one's life. As interest suddenly shifts to something newer and more reliable, those tired old rides we once had gets passed on to its next care taker, and the cycle continues until it one day ends up parted out and abandoned.
The RT40 series is the 4th generation Corona that came out from 1964 to 1970. It was virtually the car that put Toyota on the map. It was introduced to the public almost simultaneous with the 1964 Japan Olympics, an opportunity that Toyota took to showcase to the world how successful they had become, rising from the ruins of World War II. The Corona was the market competition of the Pininfarina designed Nissan Bluebird, which is kind of ironic, as Pininfarina himself also assisted in the design of the RT40 Corona. This Corona has been nicknamed the "Barikan" when it first came out, which is Japanese for electric razor, as its grill which looks like razor blades makes the RT40 very distinct from the cars of its contemporary.
RT40s were very common cars in the Philippines during the 60s and 70s, yet they were not really considered desirable cars back in its day, in fact many of these Coronas ended up becoming taxi cabs. Except for a few that fell in the hands of true car aficionados, most of these old Toyotas were simply forgotten over time.
But then there is the exception to what is customary. There are some things in life that are way too good to let go. You may call it a love affair, an heirloom, the sentiments behind it makes it a significant part of a family, handed from one generation to the next, as parting is never an option.
Like any other car, Jordan Sayson's 1970 Toyota Corona was at one point brand new that has gotten old over time. But unlike the typical course of other automobiles, this car was kept in the family since the day it was acquired – 50 years ago.
For Jordan, it was the new car his Dad purchased that once took the family all over when he was a young kid. It has always been there as far as he remembers as he practically grew up with the car. Eventually, the key of the Corona, together with all his childhood memories attached to it was handed over to him as a graduation gift in 1987. And like any other car of its age, wear and tear becomes evident. That however was taken as a feat by Jordan because it gave him the chance to learn to work on it himself, a hobby that became his lifelong vocation as Jordan now owns his auto shop Pit Stop Sixty Five in Cebu City.
Jordan kept his Corona in an all stock condition. The car is still equipped with its original 1.5L 2R motor hooked to a 4-speed manual gearbox driving the rear wheels. Although it's original interior may show a little patina, Jordan's RT40 is a true time capsule, it almost looked like it just rolled off the showroom in 1970. This shows how meticulous Jordan was in maintaining the car over the past few decades.
It is not surprising to see old cars today being restored back to its former glory as these cars are well valued and highly respected these days. What is amazing is that long before people started appreciating these cars, Jordan had been passionately going against the current as he was painstakingly taking care of the Corona back when many would just consider it as a worthless worn-out ride. While most people think it's nothing but an old car, for Jordan, it's a lifelong relationship that he plans to keep for years to come so it can be passed on to and hopefully be given the same affection by the next generation. I guess it simply proves the fact that the true worth of a car is not always how much money was spent on it, but how much value one puts in to it.
Keep the old car passion alive. Drive your oldies with pride. Happy Lumang Oto motoring folks

Belgium's first female prime minister officially named
EURACTIV.com with AFP
Sophie Wilmes, Belgian minister of budget, on 9 March 2018 in Sofia, Bulgaria. [Council newsroom]
Belgium's King Philippe officially named Budget Minister Sophie Wilmes interim prime minister on Sunday (27 October), making her the first woman to hold the post.
Wilmes, a liberal francophone, replaces Charles Michel, who is set to take over as European Council president in December.
Wilmes, 44, made her political debut in 2000 as a councillor in Uccle, a cosy Brussels neighbourhood. She went on to become a member of parliament in 2014 and joined the federal government a year later.
She was selected as the caretaker prime minister late Saturday by a small ministerial committee, but she has no parliamentary majority.
Belgium has not had a fully functioning federal government since a coalition headed up by Michel collapsed in December 2018.
Negotiations to form a new coalition have stalled since parliamentary elections in May produced fragmentary results.
Since early October, talks between the French-speaking socialist PS party and the Flemish nationalist N-VA party to form a new government have collapsed.
The parties must first bridge their differences before they can form a government and bring in other parties.
The first report of on their negotiations must be submitted to King Philippe on 4 November.
Belgium, which hosts NATO and the EU, has a reputation for being ungovernable.
In 2010-11, it had a record 541 days without a government.

Ethereum Hack: $8.4 Million Stolen from Veritaseum ICO
July 25, 2017 by Milena Dimitrova
by Milena Dimitrova | July 25, 2017 | 0 Comments
There is a considerable uptick in Ethereum hacks during the last couple of weeks. Yet another theft of a considerable amount of the increasingly valued cryptocurrency has been registered. An anonymous hacker has stolen approximately $8.4 million in Ethereum from Veritaseum's Initial Coin Offering (ICO).
This hack is the fourth one of this kind in less than a month, and is the second attack on an ICO. Just last week $7 million were stolen from Israeli startup CoinDash, and $32 million were stolen from wallet accounts in Parity's Ethereum Wallet software. But that's not even all!
Bithumb, the fourth largest Bitcoin and the biggest Ethereum exchange was also hacked recently. The hack led to the loss of over $1 million in cryptocurrencies. As for the hacking itself, it was carried out through compromised user accounts.

Veritaseum Hack: Hacker Steals $8.4 Million Worth of Ethereum from Its ICO
Veritaseum has confirmed the hack which took place on July 23. Reggie Middleton, Veritaseum's founder confirmed the event on BitcoinTalk, saying that:
We were hacked, possibly by a group. The hack seemed to be very sophisticated, but there's at least one corporate partner that may have dropped the ball and be liable. We will let the lawyers sort that out if it goes that far.
Middleton deemed the hack insignificant believing that some of the third parties he's been working with may be responsible. He believes that the incident was triggered by the high demand of VERI tokens during the ICO, when the hacker succeeded in stealing those tokens. The tokens were then quickly sold to other buyers. Eventually the hacker (or group of hackers) made $8.4 million worth of Ethereum which were dumped into two separate cryptocurrency wallets. Then the funds were moved to other accounts.
Interestingly, the theft didn't affect any ICO investors. According to Middleton, the 37,000 VERI tokens that were stolen were owned by him and his colleagues.

"There are 100M tokens issued; the hackers stole about 37k. As I said, it is quite disconcerting, but it is not the end [of] the world. In the scheme of things, this is small," Middleton explained, adding that:
The tokens were stolen from me, not the token buyers. I am not downplaying the seriousness of the heist either, but I am looking at the heist for what it is. A company that we use was compromised, the vulnerability was closed, and we are investigating whether we should move against that company or not.

Kingston's Executive Member for Economic Development has written to the Communities Secretary querying the methodology of the recent staunch of 'Real Help Now' funding to selected local authorities and has accused the Government of "snub[bing] the businesses and workers" of the borough's retail sector.
As the Executive Member for Economic Development for the Royal Borough of Kingston, I am writing to you regarding the £2.6million of 'Real Help Now' government funding you approved for selected local authorities last month.
Whilst I strongly welcome the financial support you have given to high streets in distress, particularly in urban areas with high levels of deprivation, I would like to query the methodology you have used to target this funding.
Retail is one of the most important sectors for employment and income generation in Kingston upon Thames. However, as you have acknowledged, this sector is at particular risk in the country's continued recession. Consumer confidence will also likely struggle next year, even as our economy recovers.
I therefore see the unqualified exclusion of Kingston upon Thames from your consideration of 'Real Help Now' as a snub to the businesses and workers of this borough.
The administration of Kingston Council campaigns against such symptoms of the 'leafy Kingston syndrome', whereby the economic pressures on our local authority and the real financial difficulties faced by residents and local businesses are ignored, especially by Government.
I ask that future support is arranged on the basis of experience of 'change' or 'shock' to the annual turnover of a retail business, to help strong businesses models survive during this exceptionally difficult economic climate.
Please write to me, on behalf of businesses of Kingston, to explain what action the Government is taking within its economic recovery agenda to help our local retail sector.

Mapping meaning to usage
An interview with linguist and lexicographer Patrick Hanks, on the subject of mapping meanings to usage.
I'm delighted to welcome Patrick Hanks. Patrick is a corpus linguist and a lexicographer with a very distinguished record. Patrick has been chief editor of three groundbreaking dictionaries, the Collins English dictionary in the 1970s, the COBUILD dictionary in the 1980s and the Oxford Dictionary of English in the 1990s. He's also professor of lexicography at the University of Wolverhampton, which is the only UK university which offers a master's programme in lexicography.
Patrick's book, "Lexical Analysis: Norms and Exploitations", is a brilliant and very important contribution to our understanding of how people make meanings and understand meanings. So we're very fortunate to be able to talk to Patrick today on that topic. Patrick, I'd like to start by asking you, how we as human beings, create meanings when we're writing and speaking, and how other people understand what we mean. Right. And how other people understand what we mean. Well, we certainly communicate using words, but we don't use words in isolation. We don't normally just shout out 'block', 'slab', 'tile'. We say things like, 'Bring me some tiles.' or 'Bring me some of those tiles over there.' or something like that.
So we embed words in phrases. That's how we normally communicate. Now, I think dictionaries - traditional dictionaries - have done a disservice to humanity by fostering the belief that meanings are associated with words in isolation. And meanings are actually more associated with words in context, phraseology. And that's how we make meanings - we make meanings by uttering phrases and we understand meanings by comparing the phrases that we hear with all the phrases that we've heard throughout our life from birth, which are somehow stored in our subconscious and somehow arranged, but this is not well understood. In your work you talk a lot about how dictionaries divide words into separate meanings.
But you make a distinction between meanings and meaning potentials and I wonder if you could explain a bit more about that. If we look up a word in a dictionary, you will see a list of possible meanings that that word has. But firstly, dictionaries don't normally tell you how to distinguish one sense from another. And actually, what's actually going on is that a word has many possible meanings, many meaning potentials, which are distinguished according to the context in which they're used. So if you 'hazard a guess at something', meaning is different from 'hazarding your life', or 'hazarding a fortune' in a casino. The phraseology helps you to decide what the word means in a particular context.
You hear the words around the word, the keyword that you're interested in - and then you're able to interpret it unambiguously. In your book lexical analysis, Patrick, you talk about norms and exploitations and I wonder if you could tell us a little bit more about that. People not only use words in the normal, in the most normal way, in the normal phraseology, but they also like to play with the phraseology, or use words in unusual ways, or to make new meanings.
Dylan Thomas talks about "a grief ago" and a pedantic linguist might say: 'You can't use, 'ago', without an expression of time, so 'grief' is being forced, it's being exploited with the additional meaning of a period of time. You not only have stored in your head a set of normal uses of each word that you use, but also you have the potential to exploit that in interesting and creative ways. This is the root of poetry but it's also observable in everyday conversation.
In this video, Michael Rundell interviews Patrick Hanks, a corpus linguist and lexicographer with a long and distinguished record.
Watch the video interview which is approximately five minutes in length. You may wish to watch it a couple of times to make further written notes which will help you in the next step of the course.
Patrick discusses issues around word meanings, and shows how context plays an essential part in our understanding of what words mean.
His book, Lexical Analysis – Norms and Exploitations, is a brilliant contribution to ideas about word meaning.

PIMEX, voluit Picture Mix Exposure, is een methode om het effect van werkmethoden en werkplekomstandigheden op de blootstelling aan gevaarlijke stoffen, nano-deeltjes, fysieke inspanning en geluid, te meten en tegelijkertijd in één videoscherm laten zien. Het idee om met meetapparatuur, een videocamera en speciale software de arbeidsomstandigheden in beeld te brengen, werd al eind jaren tachtig in Zweden ontwikkeld.

Het duurde tot 2004 voordat PIMEX ook in Nederland en voet aan de grond kreeg. Over het gebruik van de methode in België zijn geen gegevens bekend.

Toepasbaarheid
De methode wordt met name toegepast in de praktijk van de arbeidshygiëne met het oog op:
voorlichting en instructie; de invloed van het eigen gedrag op de mate van blootstelling – bijvoorbeeld het op het al of niet op een juiste wijze toepassen van getroffen maatregelen – wordt direct gevisualiseerd en kan daarmee positief van invloed zijn;
onderzoek / analyse; bijvoorbeeld om te testen of bepaalde veiligheidsmaatregelen al of niet in de praktijk goed werken.

Ontwikkeling van de methode
PIMEX is oorspronkelijk halverwege de jaren 80 van de vorige eeuw in Zweden ontwikkeld door Gunnar Rosén and Ing-Marie Andersson. Een min of meer gelijksoortige techniek werd in de Verenigde Staten ontwikkeld door onderzoekers van het NIOSH.Thans wordt PIMEX in verschillende landen gebruikt. Ook in Nederland wordt de methode meer en meer toegepast en – met ondersteuning van het ministerie van SZW – verder doorontwikkeld.

Enkele voorbeelden
Inmiddels zijn meer dan 170 PIMEX-videos over een groot scala aan onderwerpen gemaakt, zoals:
 Het toepassen van gezondheidvriendelijkere methoden, zoals het offsetdrukproces met en zonder isopropylalcohol;
 Het op een juiste wijze toepassen van afzuigsystemen (bijv. bij het lassen);
 Het toepassen van filtersystemen;
 Het op een juiste manier toepassen van adembeschermingsmiddelen;
 Zwangerschap en het werken met gevaarlijke stoffen;
 Stofblazen versus stofzuigen;
 Blootstellingreducerende maatregelen bij het werken met nano-materialen;
 Ioniserende straling – het houden van voldoende afstand en het gebruik van een loodschort;
 Tillen - last te dicht bij of wat verder weg van het lichaam;
 Zwangerschap en tillen;
 Het gebruik van tilhulpmiddelen;
 Lawaai – het gesloten houden van omkastingen;
 Lawaai – het toepassen van geluiddempende materialen.

How to Spot Asteroid Pallas in Binoculars and Telescopes This Week
By Geoff Gaherty 2015-06-11T20:12:18Z
The large asteroid Pallas will be in opposition to the Sun in Hercules on Thursday, June 11.

Most of us have played video games shooting at asteroids, or watched a starship maneuvering through the asteroid belt on television. But have you ever seen a real asteroid in the sky? This week is an excellent opportunity to see one of the largest asteroids, Pallas, as it reaches opposition to the sun.
This week, the asteroid Pallas reaches opposition in the eastern part of Hercules, very close to the 4th magnitude star Lambda Herculis. It is motoring along from east to west at about one degree per week, so that in three weeks time it will be close to the 3rd magnitude star Sarin (Delta Herculis). Its movement from night to night, as seen in binoculars, is quite obvious.
At opposition, Pallas will reach magnitude 9.4, making it easily visible in binoculars. It will be 2.405 astronomical units from Earth, or 224 million miles (360 million kilometers). One astronomical unit is the average distance between the Earth and the sun, about 93 million miles (150 million km). [Astronomy Gear Guide for Stargazers]
The first asteroids were discovered in the early years of the 19th century, with the first four asteroids, including Pallas, discovered in a six-year between 1801 and 1807. A fifth asteroid was not discovered until 38 years later in 1845. This ushered in a rich period of asteroid discovery, with three dozen more discoveries in the next decade. Once photography came into play, thousands more asteroids were found.
Astronomers originally thought the first asteroids were very small planets, but once they realized how numerous they were, they created a special category called "asteroids" (because of their resemblance to stars) or "minor planets." The vast majority of these asteroids have orbits between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, a region of the solar system that came to be known as the "asteroid belt."
In reality, the asteroid belt is quite different from what you see in science fiction programs. Rather than being crowded with space rocks, the asteroid belt is mostly empty space. Most of the time, if you were standing on one asteroid, you would need binoculars or a telescope to spot the nearest asteroid. The chances of two asteroids colliding is virtually zero.
The first asteroid discovered, Ceres, has now been reclassified as a dwarf planet, along with Pluto and Eris. At 592 miles (952 kilometres) in diameter, it is significantly larger than the remaining asteroids. Two asteroids, Pallas and Vesta, are almost identical in size, 326 miles (524 km) and 318 miles (512 km) respectively. The rest range from Hygiea (276 miles/444 km) on down through chunks of rock only 30 feet (10 meters) across. Anything smaller than that is called a "meteoroid."
Although Pallas and Vesta are nearly identical in size, they are quite different in their composition and appearance. Pallas is a typical rocky asteroid, quite dark in surface colour, resembling a carbonaceous chondrite meteorite. Vesta, on the other hand, is highly reflective, the only asteroid sometimes visible with the naked eye.
The path of Pallas over the next 14 days carries it parallel to the stars Lambda Hercules and Sarin. The labeled dot is Pallas' position on June 11, and the dots to the right mark its daily travel westward. (Image credit: Starry Night Software)
For the rest, binoculars are needed to spot them. Asteroids, as their name implies, look exactly like faint stars. What gives them away is their rather rapid movement against the background stars.
I particularly like watching asteroids when they are passing close to a bright star. In a telescope, you can see their movement over even a 15-minute period.

Emilio Delgado, the Mexican-American actor best known for his role of 45 years as Luis on Sesame Street died on Thursday. He was 81 years old. The character Luis was the singing owner of the neighborhood Fix-It Shop. Sesame Workshop confirmed the news via a statement, according to TODAY. "A beloved member of the Sesame family for over 50 years, his warmth and humor invited children to share a friendship that has echoed through generations," the company shared. "At the forefront of representation, Emilio proudly laid claim to the 'record for the longest-running role for a Mexican-American in a TV series.' We are so grateful he shared his talents with us and with the world."

"We are saddened by the news of Emilio's passing," Robert Attermann, the CEO of A3 Artists Agency, told the outlet in a statement. "Emilio was an immense talent who brought so much joy and smiles to his fans. He will be missed by many and we know his legacy will live on. Our thoughts are with his loved ones, including his wife, Carole." His wife told The Associated Press that he died from multiple myeloma, a type of blood cancer, at their home in New York, according to CBS News.
We are heartbroken to report the passing of Emilio Delgado; best known as Luis Rodriguez on Sesame Street, who joined the series in 1971

Delgado also made appearances in Hawaii Five-O, Quincy, Police Story, and I Will Fight No More Forever. Some of his other TV and film credits include The Get Down, House of Cards, Law & Order: Criminal Intent, Law & Order: SVU, A Case of You, and The Michael J. Fox Show. But his most popular stint has been on The Sesame Street. Delgado made his debut on the popular series in 1971 for its third season and remained a series regular until 2016. The series had a diverse cast along with Jim Henson creations like Big Bird, Oscar the Grouch, Elmo, and Grover. Delgado played an ordinary, non-stereotypical Latino character at a time when such portrayals were not that common.
RIP you proud Chicano, consummate entertainer & sweet man. Emilio Delgado always announced himself on the phone by saying, "It's Emilio—Luis from Sesame Street." As if he needed any introduction! He & Sonia Manzano made Latin-American kids feel seen, accepted, and sunny. 💔 pic.twitter.com/PIdkmx7HOJ
— David Kamp (@MrKamp) March 10, 2022
Delgado told The Houston Chronicle, "I'd been trying all my professional life to be somewhere I can change that, whether I was talking about it or trying to get into a project that showed Latinos in a good light. That's why Sesame Street was such a good thing. For the first time on television, they showed Latinos as real human beings. We weren't dope addicts. We weren't maids or prostitutes, which were the way we were being shown in television in film. Here, on Sesame Street, there were different people who spoke different languages and ate interesting foods, and they were all Americans." RIP.
"Sure, there is ABC and 1-2-3, but it goes way beyond that. Sesame Street shows what love and acceptance is between people. It's inclusive of everyone. It's good for kids to see that there are kids who are different, who think differently."
Te extrañaremos, Emilio Delgado. pic.twitter.com/qQfWB4EpCG

Obituary of Nora Wallan
It is with a deep sadness that we announce the passing of our wife and mom, Nora Wallan. She was a lifelong resident of the Beaverlodge, Hythe and Goodfare areas. Nora passed away peacefully with her family by her side on Saturday, August 6, 2022, in Beaverlodge, at the age of 79 years.
Nora was born on August 2,1943 to Nils and Jorann Kjemhus. The twins, (she was a twin to Norman) were born at home on the farm, 7 miles NE of Hythe. Nora attended school in the Royal Banner District. She loved to play ball and was very competitive. Nora was very social as a young girl and loved to be around people. She grew up on the family farm with her six siblings, until her marriage
to Leslie (Les) on January 7, 1961.
Nora and Les moved to the farm in Goodfare in March of 1961 after the sudden passing of Les' dad. On June 19,1961, their first son, Ricky, was born. They continued farming, growing grain, putting up hay, milking cows and shipping cream. They also raised beef cows, a few pigs, and chickens. Les continued to work in the bush over the winters. Nora had help most winters and was able to know which calf belonged to which mama cow without looking at the tag number. As the cow herd and farmlands increased, so did their family. Carey was born May 19,1962, followed by Kevin on June 13,1963, Barry on August 13,1964 and finally Wade on July 5,1968.
Nora and Les were involved in the oilfield with storage tank rentals, Cat rentals, fire fighting equipment rentals, and Vacuum trucks. They had shares in a meat packing plant in Beaverlodge as well. As the oilfield slowed down, they sold off their activities and returned to farming and increased their cow herd.
In 1995, they sold part of the farm at Goodfare and kept 6 quarters of pasture. They bought 2 quarters close to Hythe and built a house. They kept 20-30 cows at home just so they wouldn't forget what it was all about. Health issues was the deciding factor that seen them move into Beaverlodge in 2018. Nora was not really happy about the move, but accepted the decision. Nora always kept her yard and garden immaculate, and she was very proud of how green her lawn would be. Nora did the bookkeeping for most of the ventures and the farm. She even worked for awhile doing payroll and accounts for Carey's company.
Nora was an excellent cook, she set the "gold standard" for her buns, liked to pickle, and can fruit. First out of necessity and then for the enjoyment. The coffee pot was always on when she welcomed visitors into their home. A few things rubbed off on to her daughter in laws, but not much! Over the years the family grew to include 14 grandchildren and 25 great-grandchildren. Mom loved to watch all her sons play hockey and was very involved with the Hythe Mustangs Hockey Club. Gramma was the #1 fan for all her grandchildren and tried to make as many events as possible. She rarely missed a birthday or birthday party.
Mom was the center of our family. She loved nothing better than when the kids or grandkids would stop in. She loved being around her children, grandchildren and great -grandchildren. Our family camp out was a highlight for her. She was always smiling and up for a hug. She might have been small in stature but she was a powerhouse!
Nora is survived by her loving husband of 61 years; Leslie, sons; Rick (Jackie), Carey (Renee), Barry (Carla), and Wade (Helen), daughter-in-law; Sherri (Alan) Wenzel, grandchildren; Karci (Lincoln), Deri (Colin), Allie, Kelsey (Sheena), Brendan (Danielle), Carling (Jesse), Camryn, Jensyn, Darby (Tori), Kori (Cass), Kaylene, Shae, Aimee (Kody), Reid, great-grandchilren; Eller, Eastyn, Daylen, Duke, Grayson, Halle, Kade, Hunter, Berlin, Emery, Rand, Bentley, Colt, Weston, Brett, Maddie, Ayden, Avery, Annika, Brynn, Breah, Asher, Harlowe, Romee, and Chey, sister; Gunda (Lawrence) Napen, brothers; Arnie (Lila) Kjemhus, Harold (Faye) Kjemhus and Norman (Margo) Kjemhus, sisters-in-law; Faye Grimm, and Betty (Elmer) Valin, as well as numerous extended family and friends.
Nora was predeceased by her son; Kevin, parents; Nils & Jorann Kjemhus, sister; Thora Kjemhus, brothers; Finn (Bethel) Kjemhus, Ole (Bernice) Kjemhus, parents-in-law; Waldimar & Mary Wallan, sisters-in-law; Doreen Murphy and Vi (Allan) Atkinson and brother-in-law; Glenn (Joanne) Wallan.
A Funeral Service will be held on Thursday, August 11, 2022 at 1:00pm AB Time at the Royal Canadian Legion Hall, Hythe, Alberta. Pastor Kevin Throness will officiate. Interment will follow in the Gimle Cemetery, Goodfare, Alberta.
