...essential aspect of successful play. Players at all skill levels will have both winning days and losing days. It’s the interpretation of these events that can make all the difference and constitute divergent perspectives on the game. As a general rule, wins on individual hands cannot be interpreted as indications of future success. Novices often fall into the trap of thinking that they are performing well when they make money on a particular hand. They focus on the intermittent rewards, rising and falling with each incremental shift in their fortunes. But for the professionals, it?...

...name of one of Rupert Murdoch’s more controversial projects, Fox News Channel, is something of a misnomer.

...what really keeps the mullahs up at night is the specter of ethnic and sectarian conflict - more attacks like the bombing on Oct. 18 in the remote southeastern province of Sistan-Baluchistan, which killed 42 people, including five senior officers of the Revolutionary Guards Corps. The country's leaders cannot help but worry that the same divisions ripping apart Afghanistan and Pakistan are about to visit them...

Tehran immediately blamed outsiders - the U.S., Great Britain and Pakistan - for Sunday's suicide bombing because it cannot admit that it has its own homegrown Taliban. Whatever Iran says about Jundallah, the ethnic Baluch group that claimed responsibility for the attack, it's an indigenous movement. The body of its financing comes from Baluch expatriates, many in the Gulf, and Islamic charities. Its weapons and explosives are readily available in the mountains that span the border between Iran and Pakistan. (Read "Pakistan: Behind the Waziristan Offensive...
