His works were frequently reprinted and widely read during the late 16th to early 17th century, and although his "occult" reputation remained controversial, his medical contributions were universally recognized, with e. ISBN You can have them walk through a stream, or throw rocks from the bank. The key to reconstruction of Arcimboldo's outlook seemed to them to be in the symbolism of court celebrations staged by the artist, and in his allegorical series.
They were carefully constructed by his imagination. He was also the court decorator and costume designer. Gilbert summarized the similarities between The Prince and the genre it obviously imitates, the so-called " Mirror of Princes " style. Paracelsus's lectures at Basel university unusually were held in German, not Latin. In the Medici accused him of conspiracy against them and had him imprisoned.
Geyger considered the works of the artist as inversion, when the ugliness seems beautiful, or, on the contrary, as the disgrace exceeding the beauty, entertaining the regal customer.

Krigeskort, "are absolutely unique". By using everyday objects, the portraits were decoration and still-life paintings at the same time.
In this way, he aimed to ensure that what he wrote was both accurate Portrait of nature book up-to-date. Machiavelli's ideas had a profound impact on political leaders throughout the modern west, helped by the new technology of the printing press.
In spite of the fact that very few works of Arcimboldo are available in the art market, their auction cost is in the range of five to 10 million dollars. The animal tails, which became the beard of the portrait, were used as dusters. Machiavelli's promotion of ambition among leaders while denying any higher standard meant that he encouraged risk-taking, and innovation, most famously the founding of new modes and orders.
He clearly expounded the concept Portrait of nature book dose response in his Third Defense, where he stated that "Solely the dose determines that a thing is not a poison.
Firstly, particularly in the Discourses on Livy, Machiavelli is unusual in the positive side he sometimes seems to describe in factionalism in republics. But he cites Plato and Aristotle very infrequently and apparently did not approve of them.
Normally, these types of works were addressed only to hereditary princes. Hok, in consciousness there is concetto—the concept of a picture or a picture of the concept, an intellectual prototype. Between andMachiavelli was responsible for the Florentine militia.
It reveals the thinking that led to the idea of the park system, chronicles its development, and gives readers a newfound appreciation for the wonder of the parks.
When her natural self-portrait is finished, have your child present her masterpiece to you and tell her to explain the choices she made. While Gilbert emphasized the similarities, however, he agreed with all other commentators that Machiavelli was particularly novel in the way he used this genre, even when compared to his contemporaries such as Baldassare Castiglione and Erasmus.
Paracelsus pioneered the use of chemicals and minerals in medicine. I am not ashamed to talk to them and ask them to explain their actions and they, out of kindness, answer me. From the contours of a pristine landscape down to the shape and color of its smallest plant, each scene is a historically and ecologically credible rendering of a place that has remained miraculously unspoiled.
There, I am warmly welcomed, and I feed on the only food I find nourishing and was born to savour. Mary Dedalus — Stephen's mother who is very religious and often argues with Stephen about attending services. It has been argued that Machiavelli's promotion of innovation led directly to the argument for progress as an aim of politics and civilisation.
On the other hand, in The Winter, the human was composed mostly of roots of trees.

This specific empirical knowledge originated from his personal experiences as an army physician in the Venetian wars. A related and more controversial proposal often made is that he described how to do things in politics in a way which seemed neutral concerning who used the advice—tyrants or good rulers.

“How do we create those great places that are walkable, that are compact, that are dense, where companies want to move to and where people want to move to?” asked Peter Kasabach, the executive director of New Jersey Future.
Kasabach spoke at the company’s redevelopment forum. He said a lot of it comes from local leadership.
“Right now, many towns have zoning codes that are in place that get a result that’s not what the town actually wants,” said Kasabach.
For example, a panel on working with communities to help counter a “NIMBY”, or not in my backyard, perception.
“Sometimes you have a lot of projects that are negative because they have affordable housing, too much traffic or a lot of school children,” said Bob Ceberio, the founder and president of the strategic planning and management consulting firm RCM Ceberio.
The discussion at the forum focused on using techniques like education and outreach to overcome barriers.
“The most important thing you can do as a developer or public official is not allow a negative aspect fill the information void,” said Ceberio.
Bruce Katz, the keynote speaker and co-founder of New Localism Advisors, says it’s a crowd coming together to collaborate to compete.
“It’s public, private, civic, university, community,” said Katz. “Everyone has to focus on the basics, the quality of place, security, and talent.”
But talent seems to be leaving the state. According to the NJBIA, the state lost 184,000 millennials from 2007 to 2016. Another panel discussed solutions to attract and keep that generation here.
“There isn’t a diversity of housing options. There’s only single family homes. If you’re straight out of graduate school, for example, you may not be able to afford a single family home,” said New Jersey Future’s Planning and Policy Associate Kandyce Perry. “Incorporating affordable housing into some of the development patterns would really help.”
When it comes to development, the planning manager of New Jersey Future, David Kutner, says it’s important to talk about climate change and approaches municipalities can take to guarantee their economic viability in the long term.
According to Climate Central’s worst case scenario, by 2100 the ocean will cover land where 710,000 New Jerseyans now live, putting $199 billion worth of property at risk.
“In a lot of cases in these communities along the shore, families don’t have mortgages any longer. They pass their houses down from family to family. It’s a very, very difficult shift,” said Kutner.
Another difficult shift — updating the state’s aging infrastructure. In 2016, New Jersey got a D-plus on its infrastructure report card put out by the American Society of Civil Engineers.
“Infrastructure creates access, access creates value, we need to recycle that value we’re creating by our infrastructure investments back into infrastructure,” said George Vallone of the Hoboken Brownstone Company.
“You’ve got a lot of good bones in this state. You’re about the most rail transit place, you’ve got a lot of quality town centers, they need to be unlocked for 21st century growth,” explained Katz.
The keynote speaker also had this suggestion for growth: Working across jurisdictions as metropolitan regions because New Jersey has so many small municipalities.

What is TDS?
TDS is Total Dissolved Solids.
Do We Care about TDS Levels in Pool Water?
TDS is not very important for pool care. It used to be a way to tell when water was "old", but that was before we were able to more accurately measure the components that make it up. Now it's just a relic of a bygone era.
We care about measuring and managing the individual chemicals but the Total Dissolved Solids is meaningless.
What Chemicals Make Up TDS?
Pool Store Measurements of TDS
The PoolMeter has a dual range to measure Salt and TDS. Its measurement of salt is accurate. Its measurement of TDS and meaning of what it is measuring with TDS is questionable.
The TDS measurement is based on a 442 Standard Solution consisting of the following salt ratios: 40% sodium sulfate, 40% sodium bicarbonate, and 20% sodium chloride.
Unless your pool water makeup matches this, which it doesn't, the TDS reading is meaningless.
What usually happens is the pool store will set the meter to salinity and take a reading and then to TDS and take a reading and report both numbers.
But, think about it, how can the conductivity meter isolate just the salt in the first reading?
It can't. It just measures conductivity in both tests, which has to be exactly the same reading. The only difference is the multiplier used in each setting. When testing a salt pool, only the salt multiplier is valid.

Game one of the Stanley Finals was one hell of a game. If you didn’t have your seat belt on for that one, you had one hell of a bumpy ride. My heart was in my throat the entire game. Fellow bloggers who were watching were texting me throughout the game. Normally I’m pretty responsive and am able to comment pretty easily. Saturday night was different as I typically shot back one or two word answers. I just couldn’t stand it, as the pace of the game took over!
Here’s a recap and preview of tonight, bullet style.
* Troy Brouwer had two very timely goals for the Hawks and has played exceptionally well the past couple games. Not bad for a guy that had to leave the team earlier this season due to an illness in the family.
* Tomas Kopecky who scored what turned out to be the game winner was inserted into the lineup as a replacement for Andrew Ladd who’s out with an upper body injury, played as though he hasn’t missed a beat. Teamwork, work ethic and waiting for you chance is what this is all about.
* Scott Hartnell was back to his old nasty, ornery self and was a big part of the Flyers offence for two periods. Till he sorta disappeared in the third.
* Michael Leighton looked really nervous in net compared to the Hawks Antii Niemi. Leighton’s goals were one’s that he might have wanted another shot at, while Niemi’s were mostly a result of puck bounces and a dissaray of bodied in front of the net.
* Leighton goes tonight for the Flyers. My guess is he’s on a very short leash.
* The top line of Toews, Kane and Big Buff is not happy with their game one performance and knows it. You will see a different game from all three tonight.
* Chris Pronger playing almost 33 minutes was astounding. Can he keep that up for a seven game series, if it goes that long?
* What if the Flyers have to rely on four defenceman? Ryan Parent played one shift, about 40 seconds and was a minus one Saturday night. Not good.
* The top two lines for each team was a combined minus 16 in game one. You won’t see that again.
* Dave Bolland who has a shortie in the first game, also caught Richards by the skate tripping him after winning a faceoff. The nickname “The Rat” seems fitting.
* Listen for the triple whistle that comes from the balcony tonight during the game at the UC. When the pace of the game sloes down, or the action is rather dull, some fan from up top whistle’s three consecutive whistle’s in an expression of the play to pick up. I hve no idea who’s behind, but it’s been going on for at least 25 years inf not longer.
* Both teams have the first game under their belts. Nerves should be gone and we’ll see a more settled game. I think.
* Not as physical as we thought, but certainly action packed, the Hawks speed proved to be a bit much for the Flyers by the third period. Their forececking late in the third kept Boucher in net, and Pronger on a long shift.
* Tonight’s game will be another gret one. Don’t miss it.
* Who’s the hero tonight?
Thanks for reading.

Aurora starts to export medical cannabis to Germany
Aurora Cannabis (ACB.TO) (ACBFF) announced a major milestone this morning…
The Canadian licensed medical marijuana producer continues to execute and today, the company announced that it has received all the required permits to ship dried cannabis flower from Canada to Germany.
Aurora Cannabis will now be able to take advantage of a market that is experiencing a severe shortage of medical marijuana. Following this development, the company will start supplying the German medical cannabis market through its wholly-owned subsidiary Pedanios GmbH.
Ships 50 Kilograms of Medical Marijuana to Germany
Yesterday, Aurora Cannabis shipped 50 kg of dried cannabis from its Mountain View County facility to Berlin-based Pedanios, Germany’s leading medical cannabis distributor. The company secured additional import permits for more product and ongoing, regular shipments have been scheduled.
Upon delivery to Pedanios, the product will be distributed to a network of more than 1,500 pharmacies across Germany, which represents the largest single federally-legal medical cannabis market in the world.
Through Pedanios, Aurora plans to become a top producer and supplier of medical cannabis products in Germany, as well as other European Union markets.
Levered to Major Marijuana Markets
From Australia to Germany, this Canadian licensed producer has significantly increased its market share and is levered to new legal cannabis markets across the globe.
In June, Cann Group Limited (ASX: CAN) became the first Australian company to be licensed by the Office of Drug Control for commercial medical cannabis cultivation and production. Aurora acquired 19.9% of Cann Group and became the cornerstone investor ahead of its IPO.
We are favorable on Aurora’s leverage to international markets and we expect Germany to be one of the most significant opportunities.
Germany: The Next Marijuana Frontier
Canadian licensed medical marijuana producers have benefited from the rapidly growing German medical marijuana market since it does not allow for domestic cultivation. Until state-supervised cannabis plantations are set up, the country will continue to rely solely on imported products.

As geopolitical shifts take place, global business leaders must adapt. Image: Unsplash/Lok Yi Cheung

Stay up to date:
- From interest rates to artificial intelligence (AI) expansion, here are nine key forces reshaping global business.
- As the world becomes increasingly fragmented, businesses face the challenge of adapting to a changing landscape.
- Companies can prepare for the evolving context with actions ranging from diversifying and managing expectations on rates and price volatility to preparing for a fragmented world and remaining equipped with geopolitical expertise.
As we enter 2024, many business leaders seek footing in a global landscape redefined by a half-decade of geopolitical tensions, economic instability, and a pandemic. The post-Cold War narrative of increasingly integrated economies, cultures and populations is growing faint. Instead, momentum is shifting to a growing multipolar world.
The symptoms are many. Relations between the West and Russia have turned hostile, and tension has grown between the United States and China. Major developing nations are pursuing increasingly independent paths. Old conflicts in the Middle East and Central Asia have erupted anew or threaten to escalate. Progress toward strengthening global trade and investment rules has broken down; even the United States and the European Union (EU) – the 20th century’s leading free trade champions – are adopting more nationalist approaches to supporting domestic strategic industries.
9 forces reshaping global business
To navigate the increasingly complex global environment, global business leaders must adapt to the following nine forces reshaping global business:
1. Conflict in Ukraine and Middle East
The Russia-Ukraine frontline in the conflict has remained static in the last year. No cease-fire negotiations are in sight, especially with elections coming up in Russia and potentially Ukraine. There are signs of eroding support among foreign governments on both sides of the Atlantic for financial support for Ukraine. For Ukraine to join the EU, the bloc would have to provide €186 billion over seven years to support Ukraine, creating a significant burden for some member countries. Even without membership, reconstruction efforts are expected to cost around $1 trillion.
Since 7 October, tensions in the Middle East have been high, with global attention focused on the war in Gaza. Recent developments in Lebanon and the Red Sea have heightened concerns for broader regional conflict and disruption.
2. Higher interest rates
Even though inflation, triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic and the Ukraine war, is showing signs of cooling in the United States and EU, it’s uncertain when central bankers will significantly reduce rates. Recent high rates have raised hurdles for capital investments and reduced mergers and acquisitions, private equity and venture capital activity. On the positive side, interest rates remain modest in some nations. And unlike previously, higher US rates haven’t triggered systemic debt crises in emerging markets.
What is the Forum doing to improve the global banking system?
3. China dynamics
Geopolitical tensions, shifting government policies, a slowing economy and concerns over supply-chain resilience have complicated China’s business environment. Even assuming a slower growth rate of around 3%, however, China’s GDP in 2030 is projected to be around $5 trillion greater than in 2022. That would surpass the expected combined economic growth of the EU, the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), South Korea and Japan combined. However, Chinese markets have unique needs and regulations and fierce domestic competition. Companies need to consider carefully the role China will play in their portfolios.
4. Election year 2024
Voters in nations accounting for more than half the world’s population will go to the polls to elect leaders this year. The impacts will be far-reaching. Results in Indonesia, for example, are likely to have implications for climate policies and results in Mexico may shape location decisions by foreign manufacturers. New leadership in the United States could result in major changes in foreign, economic and climate policy. Parliamentary elections in the EU could impact the bloc’s net-zero commitments. Moreover, developments in generative AI and other digital technologies could make elections acutely vulnerable to interference.
5. Asia’s economic acceleration
Asia, the most economically integrated region besides Europe, is well-positioned for growth in the coming years. Boston Consulting Group’s global trade model projects that over the coming decade, India’s and ASEAN’s trade will grow by 6.3% and 4.1% per year, compared with global trade growth of 2.8%. These trends result from growing domestic markets, shifting cost structures and a desire for increased supply chain resilience. Both markets are attractive investment locations for companies following a “China +1” approach of diversifying manufacturing footprints and supply chains beyond a China base.
6. The geopolitics of AI
The massive expansion in the capability and use of AI – for civilian and military purposes – is fueling a race for global supremacy. At the same time, different regulatory approaches are emerging around the world. For example, the EU, with its AI Act, prioritizes a centralized, risk-based approach covering consumer protection and product safety, while the United States is taking a more decentralized approach, focusing on national security. Navigating an increasing patchwork of AI regulations across borders will be challenging for global companies. They must engage regulators to ensure adequate safeguards while allowing experimentation and innovation.
How is the World Economic Forum creating guardrails for Artificial Intelligence?
7. Rise of (green) industrial policy
Governments are taking increasingly bold action to develop low-carbon industries to fight climate change, strengthen domestic manufacturing and reduce reliance on offshore suppliers of components and critical minerals. There is significant money on the table. Through the Inflation Reduction Act, for example, the United States is investing $370 billion in clean energy and decarbonizing industries. The EU’s Green Deal Industrial Plan dedicates EUR 357 billion through 2030 to support the green transition with state funding and broader funding support for environmental targets on top of that, according to analysis from BCG’s Centre for Climate Policy. These policies are influencing company decisions. Because they often come with conditions attached, such policies will likely reshape global supply chains.
8. BRICS Expansion
BRICS, initially a moniker for the high-growth markets Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa, has evolved into BRICS+, an organized grouping of emerging markets. In 2023, the grouping expanded to include Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, Iran and Ethiopia. This expansion led to incremental increases in the share of global GDP and population. But it has dramatically increased the group’s weight in oil. BRICS+ countries now control 43% of global oil production, up from the 20% of the original group. BRICS+ also announced plans to establish institutions such as a new development bank.
It remains to be seen how a group of countries with some fundamental differences can remain unified. But if these institutions take shape and exert influence, they could offer an interesting counterbalance to the West.
9. The race for global talent
Entrepreneurs, engineers and researchers are fast becoming new geo-strategic assets that fuel countries’ ambitions to reach AI leadership, shore up their tax base and drive green industrial policy. That’s why many nations are now playing a dual game regarding migration: they are trying to contain irregular migration movements while actively attracting top talent. Major reforms are underway in Australia, Germany and the Middle East. In 2024 and beyond, countries, cities and firms will need to articulate new narratives and develop new value propositions to attract and retain the citizens of tomorrow.
Who are the World Economic Forum's Innovator Communities?
Staying ahead of the curve
How can companies prepare to compete and win in this challenging and ever-evolving landscape? We see five key moves:
- Diversify your manufacturing, supply and operational footprints to enhance resilience.
- Expect that “cheap capital” will not return in the near term and price volatility will continue.
- Ensure your technology teams and organizations have the capabilities, talent and flexibility to thrive in a fragmented world.
- As the trade and climate agendas increasingly intertwine, understand what is needed to remain “carbon competitive” in the new reality.
- Build geopolitical muscle among your decision-makers and throughout your organization to ensure that the business impacts of the dynamic global environment are appropriately understood and considered.

The summer season is here, and with it comes a host of musical festivals across the country. Of course, we have Coachella kicking things off, and soon to follow are Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, and Electric Zoo. Keep in mind, these are just the big ones.
Over the years, Coachella has evolved into something more than just an indie music festival, and it's considered one of the must-see festivals this year, with the lineup including Radiohead, The Black Keys, Swedish House Mafia, David Guetta, Dr. Dre and Snoop. Of course, no mention of Coachella would be complete with the rumored appearance of Daft Punk, who has been dominating essential music festivals of summer headlines even though it's not even confirmed that they will make an appearance.
According to reports from the festival, a lot of Daft Punk fans are under the impression that the EDM duo would be making an appearance within the next few days, but we'll just have to wait to find out. In the meantime, there's already a ton of acts set to rock the stage.
After Coachella, Bonnaroo becomes the next big stop for fans, and then Lollapalooza and Electric Zoo, although those two festivals tend to focus more on electronic music than 'indie' music. Although, to be fair, Coachella is much more mainstream now than it ever used to be 'indie'.

Everyday investors are looking for stocks with upcoming catalysts and this week there are quite a few. Here is a round up of stocks that have catalysts to watch for as they gain momentum.
China Infrastructure Construction Corp. (OTC: CHNC) is quickly becoming a hot cannabis play as it develops its plans to grow in the medical marijuana industry. As the company is currently in the process of auditing its financials, many investors are speculating CHNC could be looking for a potential partnership or a buyout. Although the company has not shared any updates on this process, this could be due to the company filing for a name change to become Cannabis Biosciences International Holdings.
While companies in the process of a name change are not allowed to disclose much information, investors are speculating the name change could be completed soon since the company is planning for a shareholders call on July 13th. CHNC could announce some major news in this call – which could send the stock soaring given its history of big moves. Since the stock is already running with no obvious resistances, the stock could retest September 2021’s high of $.0069 – a 56% increase from its current PPS – making it one of the penny stocks to watch this week.
@ChaseMacTrades is looking to add to his position in CHNC in anticipation of the shareholders call.
Focused on building shareholders’ value, Southern Home Medical, Inc. (OTC: SHOM) could soar as it prepares to release PR regarding 4 developmental projects with a focus on asset building. Although this PR was expected to be released last week, SHOM’s legal team being out of state delayed the PR since they could not approve it. However, SHOM promised to release the much anticipated PR this week – which could send SHOM on a run if the announcement is truly major.
In light of this, SHOM could be one to watch since the stock has lost ground after reaching a high of $.0028. For this reason, bullish investors could find an entry point near its supports in anticipation of SHOM’s potential run. Depending on the news, SHOM could retest $.0028 for a 100% increase from its current PPS.
@Modrnerapharaoh is confident SHOM is one of the penny stocks to watch as it could skyrocket after PR is released.
GainClients, Inc. (OTC: GCLT) – an escrow services provider for real estate – followed through with its promise to release announcements after sharing a series of updates on its operations. The most notable is a deal with a client for more than 20 additional branches. Through this deal, GCLT expects to more than double the volume on its platform.
Meanwhile, GCLT is waiting to share more news about a 52% expansion in its customer base. Considering the size of this expansion and its upcoming PR, as GCLT dips towards its supports now could be a good time for bullish investors to add on to their positions before GCLT potentially explodes with its PR.
For more information on GCLT check out our in-depth article on the company.
@Kanye_Invest expects GCLT to surge when GCLT shares updates today.
Recently, Premier Biomedical Inc (OTC: BIEI) excited investors after the company’s shell badge was removed from its OTC profile. Based on this, investors are watching BIEI closely in anticipation of a filing highlighting an acquisition or a merger. Considering that merger plays have been very popular lately, BIEI is one of the penny stocks to watch since it could surge once the anticipated filing drops.
@InvestmentGuru_ believes BIEI’s filing could be on the horizon.
Providing products within the antiviral scene, VirExit Technologies Inc. (OTC: VXIT) is emerging as one to watch this week as the company is preparing to close a number of profitable deals. In the company’s appearance at the Emerging Growth Conference, VXIT shared solid plans to grow its business.
Currently, VXIT is in talks with 4 of the world’s largest 10 airlines in addition to 5 international carriers to provide them with its products. These plans could be extremely profitable to the company as VXIT expects to realize more than $30 million in revenues from each company if a deal is reached with any of them.
Meanwhile, VXIT is planning to close 5 acquisitions which could help the company in its growth efforts. With this in mind, VXIT’s management was recently in New York to close one of those acquisitions and met with investment bankers. Given that the company is planning to launch a new website to reflect its new acquisitions, investors are speculating PR could be right around the corner. With anticipation brewing over this announcement, VXIT has the potential to soar upon the release of PR.
@SalsTradingOTC believes VXIT could be poised to continue running based on its chart.

Practice Joker Poker and Play for Real Money
The world of online gaming would not be any better without Joker Poker by RealTime Gaming. This video poker game has somehow found a way to retain its relevance and continue attracting a massive following amongst players due to its unique setting and gameplay. Provided by one of the largest gaming software providers, RTG, Joker Poker does not disappoint. The player can confidently choose this game, knowing that it will meet their wagering needs and overall expected payout. Read this review to the end to learn more.
The History of Joker Poker
The history of Joker Poker is one that might interest you, especially owing to its massive following globally. The design of the game was such that players would find it simple and fun. The simplicity adopted in its creation has gone a long way in making this the game of choice for those who want to raise funds in different gameplays.
Traditionally, the Joker Poker game has been played at events, functions, and during fundraising. Clubs have often used the game as a way to raise funds for different courses.
Joker Poker Rules – Learn How to Play
Joker Poker maintains rules that are pretty much similar to what you may have encountered in other video poker games. It starts with the player placing a bet and choosing the number of hands they are comfortable playing at a time. Having done so, you can proceed to click on the Deal button to start exploring what the game has in store for you.
Hitting the Deal button triggers gameplay in which you are dealt five cards, and you have to choose the ones to let go. After deciding on the cards to discard, you can hit the Draw button to receive new cards from the dealer.
Sometimes you may be okay with your cards as they are. You do not need to discard any card in such a case, and you can proceed with gaming as you wanted. The Hold option allows you to keep all your cards.
If you are playing more than one hand at a time, the game will entail individually counting each hand.
To give you a practical feel of the Joker behavior when you play Joker Poker at Slots Empire Casino, imagine that you have the following cards – a Joker, 6, 9, and two Kings. If that is the case, your hand will not just have a pair of Queens, but instead, three Queens. The Joker, under these circumstances, behaves as a Queen.
As you will learn in the section that follows, most payouts for this game typically begin with a pair of Kings. However, you must always check the casino’s paytable just in case this rule has changed.
As you play Joker Poker for free and real money, do not forget that the main objective is to keep the best cards that would complete a top-paying winning hand.
Joker Poker Hands
There are various Joker Poker winning hands, which include:
- Full House
- Two Pairs
- Kings or Better
- Joker Royal Flush
- Natural Royal Flush
- Straight Flush
- Three of a Kind
- Four of a Kind
- Five of a Kind
Odds & Payouts
Apart from the entertaining gameplay, another factor that has helped retain Joker Poker in the market for such a long time is its excellent odds. A Pair of Kinds or Better serves as the minimum qualifying hand in this game and normally comes with an even-money payout. The payout that a player can potentially receive when playing Joker Poker online for real money depends on their hand. The better the hand, the higher the payout.
Joker Poker’s highest payout stands at 10,000x the bet and is rewarded for a Sequential Royal after setting a bet amount of five coins. The least payout is generated by Straight and stands at 15x for the same bet amount.
The house edge is 1.40%, making the return to player (RTP) one of the lowest at 98.60% in comparison to other games. However, this is still a major consideration.
Joker Poker Strategy – Learn How to Win
Players will find it fairly easy to master the Joker Poker strategy. For a start, you may find it worthwhile to first gaming using the demo option. The essence of doing that for novices is to give you a practical feel of the game without putting your money on the line. However, once you are well-versed with the game, you would want to bet with real money to stand a chance to win cash rewards.
And talking of winning, the strategy adopted in your gameplay goes a long way in impacting the possibility of striking a win.
If you are dealt hands that have a Joker, you can do any of the following:
- Hold Three of a Kind
- Maintain three cards to Royal Flush
- Hold when you have four-card Flush without a King or an Ace
- Hold when you get four-card Straights
In case you are dealt without a Joker:
- Keep any of the following: Ace or King alone; any three cards to a Straight Flush; unsuited Ace and King; suited Royal Flush with a value less than Ace or King; and any Flush.
As you pick a strategy, do not forget to follow your instincts. However, never gamble with your emotions.
Who is the provider of Joker Poker?
RealTime Gaming is the force behind this video poker game. The gaming software provider boats of solid reputation in creating some of the most popular video pokers, Joker Poker included.
Can I play Joker Poker for free?
You have a chance to play Joker Poker for free under the demo option. However, this option would not earn you any real money. It is mainly used for fun and learning more about the game. If looking to get real-money rewards, you would have to place a bet on the game.
Can I play Joker Poker online?
The essence of playing Joker Poker at Slots Empire Casino is so that you can play from anywhere across the world. The casino is available online and fits all screen sizes.
Is the Joker Poker strategy hard to master?
Joker Poker has some of the simplest strategies with which you can easily get started. Consider the strategies shared above in your gameplay.

Two dimensional patterns, like the tile patterns of Islamic temples, are generated by performing a set of symmetry operations (translations, rotations, and reflections) upon a basic figure or tile.
Two Space consists of twelve such patterns produced using each of nine different animating figures (12 x 9 = 108 total). Rendered in stark black and white, the patterns produce optical illusions of figure-ground reversal and afterimages of color.

Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack plans to announce Wednesday that North Carolina and New York each will receive about $4 million for farmers growing crops used to produce energy.
The expansion is part of a federal push to produce more non-food energy crops, used to make liquid biofuels or electricity from renewable sources.
“It’s about farm income, it’s about jobs, it’s about consumer choice and less reliance on foreign oil,” Vilsack said in an interview Tuesday.
Vilsack said that while it’s true that advanced biofuels from non-food crops today cost more than petroleum products, the cost will go down as the new fuels are developed.
“The more you produce, and the more experience you have, the more efficient you become, and the more efficient you become the easier it is to price a product competitively,” he said. “Obviously there are some significant benefits to this, not least of which is basically not exporting our hard-earned dollars to countries that don’t necessarily agree with us.”
The nation’s biofuels industry today cuts about 25 cents a gallon off the price of gasoline compared to what it would cost without biofuel blending, according to the USDA. The department has financed more than 130 biodiesel and ethanol projects that produce about 3.7 billion gallons of biodiesel and ethanol per year.
The North Carolina program will pay farmers for five years to grow miscanthus, a grass that grows up to 12 feet tall, and switchgrass on up to 4,000 acres near Turkey, outside Fayetteville. The crops will be used for the production of bioethanol, chemicals and biogas for power generation at a refinery that Chemtex International plans to build outside Clinton, N.C.
The refinery is expected to produce 20 million gallons a year of bioethanol. The company plans to hire 65 people and support 250 jobs indirectly.
Under the program, North Carolina will receive nearly $4 million for the biomass crop assistance program. Farmers will receive money to establish the crop and five years of annual payments.
New York farmers will receive a total of $4.28 million to grow shrub willow on 3,500 acres. The wood is expected to generate more than 100 megawatts of electricity. The department also will announce a $1.2 million grant to Arkansas to expand its biomass crop assistance program.
Started with the 2008 farm bill, the biomass crop production assistance program helps framers and forest owners start planting energy crops that can take years to reach maturity. The intent of the program was to reduce reliance on foreign oil and encourage rural economic development.
Congress reduced the biofuel crop assistance program last November to $17 million, a 96 percent reduction from the funding level last year.
The Department of Agriculture already has energy crop assistance for crops such as camelina, an oil seed that’s been used to produce jet fuel, as well as poplar, miscanthus and grasses. Besides Arkansas and the two new states, crop assistance for energy fuels has been established in nine other states: California, Kansas, Missouri, Montana, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania and Washington.
Nearly 50,000 acres have been enrolled. Some of the land is former pasture or other non-irrigated land that is considered marginal. The energy crops can be grown with less water and fewer chemicals than most commodity crops.


A member of royal family of Chitral region has become the first Pakistani to obtain a permit for hunting ibex at Arkari valley, a privilege usually reserved for well-heeled foreign tourists visiting the area.
Shahzada Sail Ali paid Rs 50,000 for the permit to hunt ibex. He killed an ibex with 50 inches long horn which was a record in Chitral valley, a district forest officer told PTI.
Foreigners usually pay USD 80,000 to 90,000 for a hunting permit. 80 per cent of this amount is distributed among the local community through village conservation committees that protect wildlife, the official said.
Only 20 per cent of the amount goes to the government exchequer, he said.
The rich wildlife of the region comprises Kashmir markhor, ibex, other animals and birds.
Authorities are trying to increase the number of hunting permits to six a year because the scheme has attracted many foreign hunters, the officer said.

Having passed ‘National Book Day’ earlier this year (in case you had not noticed), Iain Robertson provides his views on a handful of the latest titles that he has read and gives his recommendations accordingly.
Ferrari GTO – The autobiography of 4153GT
ISBN: 978 1 907085 27 7
By Keith Bluemel
Porter Press International
Number seven of the jacketed hardback series of large format books published by the first-rate Porter Press, this tome details just one of the astonishing 1963 Ferrari GTOs (chassis number: 4153) in all of its glorious history. While every edition of this series has been of no less than the highest possible quality, supported by informed editorial and high-class period photography, the Ferrari (not because it is a Ferrari) GTO remains one of my most desired sports cars. No. 4153 is not the ‘winningest’ of all the V12 GTOs but it contested more varied events than any of the much-prized models that are worth multi-millions today, tackling rallies, races, endurance events and other specialities in an international career that witnessed several dents and even several retirements but was always recovered and re-entered in competitions throughout its history. The author, an acknowledged Ferrari aficionado, has uncovered every imaginable detail about this car’s existence, including victory on the amazing ten days of the infamous Tour de France event in 1964, when Lucien Bianchi and Georges Berger took in a blend of racing and rallying, the likes of which would have Health & Safety executives in apoplexy today. All of the car’s drivers, co-drivers and owners have been detailed comprehensively and full-colour photographs of the car, as it is today, conclude a charming story that will provide immense satisfaction to many car enthusiasts. These books are costly but for sheer coffee-table bravado, they cannot be beaten. I rate this one as exceptional.
Behind the Scenes in the Vintage Years – Torrens (Arthur Bourne)
ISBN: 978 1 78589 852 5
By Arthur and Richard Bourne
Lovers of classic motorbikes might be aware of a renowned newspaper columnist of the 1920s to 1950s. His pen-name for readers of ‘The Motor Cycle’ was ‘Torrens’ but he was actually Arthur Bourne. This wonderful biography has been edited and supplemented by his eldest son, Richard, himself a journalist of some note (The Guardian and London Evening Standard newspapers), who remains on the ‘Torrens Awards Committee’ for the Royal Automobile Club. It is worth recalling that, in the 1920s, there were significantly more bike riders on our roads than car drivers. Two-wheeled sporting activities were held in very high regard and there were countless events held both in the UK and abroad, many of which were contested by Torrens and reported on subsequently. His contribution to equipping our airborne forces with lightweight motorcycles during WW2 ought to be more commonly recognised than it is. This is a fascinating paperback, even though it is a bit pricey. Its 308 pages are packed with black & white images and enjoyable text and I strongly recommend it to any one possessing more than a passing interest in historic motorcycles.
ISBN: 978 0 7112 3812 1
By Siobhan Wall
Frances Lincoln (Books)
One of my favourite world cities is in Spain. Barcelona is a fascinating destination, packed with cultural attractions, steeped in history, yet remaining modern, colourful and vibrant; suitable for visitors of all ages and mindsets. I have lost count of the number of times I have been there but the attraction remains as strong as ever. While I am familiar with some of the points of interest that Siobhan Wall has incorporated in her delightful review of Barca’s quieter spots, I was unaware of the vast majority of the 120 places she reveals. As a result, on my next visit, I shall take this handy-sized guide with me, as a means to centre in on a side of the city of which I know very little. It will certainly add another facet to my future visits to this fine location. From cafes and bodegas, to churches and museums, this is a most useful book.
Marco Polo – Vancouver & The Canadian Rockies
ISBN: 978 3 8297 5544 3
By Marco Polo
For many years, I have both used and recommended the marvellous Marco Polo guide books. When the company altered production from bound to spiral format, these practical and concise travel companions assumed a whole new level of relevance. The 2017 additions to the range include Australia, Boston (USA), Dublin, The French Riviera, New Zealand, Portugal, the wonderful island of Sardinia, Scotland and Vancouver & The Canadian Rockies. The current format incorporates a detailed magazine that informs readers of their destination; a Finding Your Feet section that includes practical tips; a range of ‘Must Sees’; then, the regional breakdown, all accompanied by crisp colour photographs, dining and accommodation recommendations and a usefully detailed pull-out map of the area. It is hard to believe that a pocket guide can be so detailed over just 212 pages but I have never felt disappointed using Marco Polo guides on my travels and I know that you will not either.
Walking In The Dolomites
ISBN: 978 1 85284 844 6
By Gillian Price
Another of the travel guides that I have no issue in recommending is the fantastic Trekking series from Cicerone. If you are into hiking and experiencing the ‘great outdoors’, then you can place your trust implicitly in the hands of this first-class publisher. It uses the services of only the most skilled and informative writers, all of whom can boast about more knowledge of the various treks and routes and how to break them down into manageable sections than any other specialists. There is a satisfying hands-on approach taken by Cicerone that provides it with a defined market advantage. The latest guide deals with the spectacular Dolomites mountain region of northern Italy and is packed with useful tips, beautiful colour photographs and the customary recommendations for short to medium hikes, all of which can be combined for the more adventurous travellers.

George Boardman: Nevada County’s supervisors cede leadership to sheriff on medical marijuana
Observations from the center stripe: Reality edition
IF THE backers of the State of Jefferson are struggling to get enough signatures to force a public vote on the issue in Nevada County, what makes them think they have any chance of winning?… IT’S IMPRESSIVE that Truckee was named Ski Town of the Year in 2015 in a media-driven poll, particularly when you consider Truckee had practically no snow last year… BIG OAK Valley is known in pot growing circles as “Big Dope Valley” and “Big Grow Valley,” according to the sheriff. That should do wonders for property values… GIVEN THE size of our alleged illegal marijuana problems, I find it strange that sheriffs’ deputies seized just $118,000 in cash last year… NEW REAL estate code word: If a parcel is advertised as “215 friendly,” that means you can grow pot there with few hassles… DID THEY spell the name right?: Nevada County has been featured in High Times magazine as a good place to grow pot, according to the sheriff’s office…
If you view last week’s Board of Supervisors meeting as the campaign kickoff for passage of a ban on all outdoor cultivation of marijuana in Nevada County then you’ll understand why four of the five supervisors were in no mood to compromise on the issue. Opponents of Sheriff Keith Royal’s proposal to ban all outdoor cultivation of marijuana and restrict indoor growing to 12 plants spent more than five hours pleading with the supervisors to find a middle ground on the contentious issue.
But in the end, the supes voted 4-1 to rubber stamp the sheriff’s proposal less than a week after they received the recommendation. Apparently there wasn’t time for county counsel to vet the measures, and the proposal for a public vote on the “emergency” ordinance may have to be done over.
This little drama started unfolding in October when Royal revealed that several supervisors had expressed an interest in revisiting the issue of marijuana cultivation to “more accurately regulate what’s occurring … At this point, I can’t tell you what we’re going to do or where we’ll go,” he said. “In the early part of next year we’ll explore what actions may be pursued … In my opinion, it’s out of control.”
To make sure everybody understood his position, Royal called for an outright ban (“it’s just my opinion”) in early December and announced later he would make a recommendation to the supervisors this month on the cultivation of pot in the county. Nobody needed a GPS device to know where this was headed.
There are a couple of forces at work that compel the supervisors to take up the issue now. The Medical Marijuana Regulation and Safety Act became law last year, establishing a statewide system for regulating and taxing medical pot. Counties and cities have until March 1 to decide how they want to regulate the growing and distribution of medical pot, or the state will do it for them.
It is also likely that at least one initiative legalizing recreational use of pot in California will be on the November ballot. If it passes, the national pot market for legal medical or recreational use is expected to double to at least $5.4 billion.
To ensure the county isn’t swept up in pot euphoria, Royal rolled out an extensive dog-and-pony show at the hearing to illustrate the horrors of marijuana cultivation run rampant, and the fact that we have some bad parents in Nevada County. The only things the presentation lacked were a representative from an animal abuse organization and a few highlights from “Reefer Madness.”
Only one of Royal’s witnesses made a passing reference to the benefits of medical marijuana, but numerous residents of the county testified during the hearing about the medicinal benefits of the weed. Resident Forrest Hurd was particularly moving when he described how pot has reduced his son’s 500 seizures a month by 90 percent.
Then there is the economic argument. While nobody in a position of authority has ever made an attempt to quantify the amount of money pot generates in Nevada County, a Cornell University graduate student spent two years studying its impact on the county.
The student, Sara Keene, estimated last January that pot’s economic impact could range from an average of $416 million to $2.5 billion annually. “The (marijuana) industry contributes a lot to the local economy,” she said. “The county should be having more of a dialogue.”
Patricia Smith, chair of the Nevada County chapter of Americans for Safe Access, told The Union before last week’s hearing that an outright ban would only push the marijuana industry into the shadows, and local governments would receive no tax revenue from it. “It’s throwing money away,” she said. “Literally hundreds of thousands of dollars will be flowing down the hill.”
Others pleaded with the supervisors to work with all parties to find a compromise everybody can live with. “Let’s sit down and work together,” said self-described cannabis grower Harry Bennett. “We can find something that’s right for our community and live happily ever after.”
Supervisor Richard Anderson, the only supervisor to vote no, endorsed that sentiment. “Bring in the HOAs, the growers and the public and consider their wisdom,” he said. “Let’s try and reach a middle ground.” But his fellow supervisors weren’t interested in a compromise. After all, as Royal pointed out: “It’s the complaints that you (the supervisors) have brought to me that brought us here today.”
To be fair, there are legitimate reasons to put more restrictions on marijuana cultivation. People who live down wind of grows don’t appreciate the smell, bad actors steal water and do significant damage to the environment, and the growing popularity of honey oil labs means a resident could have the equivalent of a suicide bomber living next door. Advocates of medical pot say none of this applies to them; they try to live within the law. County voters will get a chance to bless or reject the ordinance in the June primary election. “I think it’s the only fair thing to do,” Royal said. Backers of the measure remember the overwhelming rejection of Measure S in November 2014 and are confident that sentiment will carry over to the June vote.
But prohibition never worked with alcohol and it won’t work with marijuana, particularly if California voters legalize recreational pot. The supervisors have chosen a path that will drive the bad actors underground, leave some people who can truly benefit from medical pot high and dry, and forfeit the opportunity to regulate and tax pot. Our elected leaders decided to forego the heavy lifting involved in finding a compromise, and ceded the leadership role on this issue to the sheriff. We should expect the supervisors to live with the consequences of their decision.

Life of John James Audubon:
John James Audubon was sent to the United States at the age of eighteen to enter the business and avoid any conscription. There he began his study on North American birds that lead him from Florida to Labrador. In his studies, Audubon has explained the birds in their natural habitats in detail. This artist is considered a pioneer, genius, and an amazing man whose actions reflect perfectly. He contributed his life and focused on art, ornithology, and culture.
One of the finest ornithological works that Audubon has completed is The Birds of America. In his research, he also found about twenty-five new species of birds in North America. Besides that, Audubon also operated a mine and a general store as his career. He also attempts to do many venture partnerships, but due to failure, the business ventures dissolved. To get a steady income for living and concentrate on his interest in drawing birds, he began pursuing many jobs by 1820. John James Audubon was married to Lucy Bakewell, who was an educator and philanthropist. They had four children’s named Victor Gifford Audubon, John Woodhouse Audubon, Lucy Audubon, and Rose Audubon.
Audubon started publishing his bird’s drawings in 1824. To find better and greater interest in bird’s subject, he sought a publisher in Europe after which his book was subscribed in London, and got published by Robert Havell, named- Birds of America, which was in four volumes; he followed it by several related works, which slowly made him popular and reputed.
He died in 1851 in New York City.
All about Birds of America:
At the age of forty-one, John James Audubon took his work to England, and his wife supported him greatly. With the best work collection, Audubon was able to grab the attention of the Englishmen. The Birds of America were his first successful publication which made him famous in the whole world. This popular book featured many North American bird species.

The book contained the original drawings by Audubon and was the first publication that was made on birds. Some of the popular bird species mentioned in this book were Great Auk, Carolina Parakeet, Carolina Pigeon, Florid Jay, and much more.
Some other famous books which accompanied Birds of America were Ornithological Biography, A Synopsis of the Birds of North America and Viviparous Quadrupeds of North America.
