Ben brought home some video clips of his trip. I have a couple I will share with you and the rest are a bit too generic. Like the breakfast buffet tables and the dinner scenes ... I dont know if you would care to see those. I have one for today and Ill try to get one in tomorrow too (if I remember).
The clip below is of a match during the beginning seeding events none of the teams is Bens. They take three teams to form an alliance with six teams playing altogether. Each team has two balls (either red or blue). There are various ways to score or be penalized. I dont know the actual scoring values but they go like this in order of more score for each: a lap around the track, knocking a ball off the rack, throwing a ball over the rack, and placing a ball back on the rack in the final 10 seconds of the 3 minute match. There are also penalties for intentionally crashing into an opponent or leaving any balls on the rack at the end of the match (other than those placed back up after having first been knocked off). I hope this will help you to understand the total confusion you see on the video!
Tammy sent along some more pictures of their newly remodeled kitchen. I am really impressed. I especially like the floor, the door and drawer pullers and the fancy towel-holder. At first I thought the red above the cabinets would be yucky but now that I see the whole event ... its cool. I am absolutely terrible when it comes to mixing matching colors, wallpapers, carpets, etc. Leave it up to me and your room would look like a fun house!
Euro coins and one US dollar bill. The dollars plunge has made the eurozone the worlds biggest economy by one measure and has underscored shifts that are reorienting the 15-nation bloc towards Asia, Russia and oil-rich Gulf states, analysts say.
