We have two games on the schedule for Saturday. Please drop me a note if you'd like to play! I expect lots of players looking for partners, so don't be shy to let me know if you'd like to play but don't have a partner.

10:00 a.m. 0-500 non-Life Master game
12:30 p.m. Open Pairs

As always, it's a big help if you include your BBO ID with your note.

Saturday morning mini-lesson at 9:30 a.m.: Continuing defense lessons, third-hand play -- going beyond "third hand high." Here's the Zoom invitation. All welcome, from wherever in the world! Wouldn't it be fun to bump against the 100 connection limit? Send it to your bridge playing friends.

Morris Jones is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.

Topic: Bridge mini lesson
Time: Jul 25, 2020 09:30 AM Pacific Time (US and Canada)

The ACBL will shortly be announcing an update to the virtual club visitor policy. Watch for this to arrive soon in your inbox. I don't think anyone in PPDVBC will mind relaxing the rules a bit. :)

Starting Monday, the next Silver Linings week! I'm planning to add a couple of non-Life Master games. If you have a preference for a game time, let me know.

I'll be writing a short column for the Pasadena-San Gabriel unit for the Southern California Bridge News in the next few days. If you have any milestones to note please pass them along!

Finally from the astronomy desk: I published a short video of comet NEOWISE as it passes through Ursa Major, made up from 50 frames of 10-second exposures each: http://mojo.whiteoaks.com/2020/07/20/video-of-comet-neowise/
