Playing Card Lineup Ice Breaker/Energizer Objectives • Fun way to interact with others. • Use an initiative in early stages of teambuilding. Supplies: deck of playing cards Instructions: works best with groups of 16 or more • Prearrange the cards so that they are stacked from Ace to King within each suit; Ace of Hearts, Ace of Spades, Ace of Diamonds, Ace of Clubs, 2 of Hearts, 2 of Spades, 2 of Diamonds, 2 of Clubs, 3 of Hearts, etc. all the way to Kings • Deal out the cards face down, one to each person; instruct participants to not look at the card. • If someone does accidentally look at their card, they can switch with another person. • Once everyone has a card, they are to get into smaller groups, based on your instructions. 1. Get into groups based on the color of your card. a. Once in the group, share with others about your pet(s) b. After sharing, exchange cards with another person, keeping the cards face down 2. Get into 4 groups based on the suit of your card. a. Once in the group, decide as a group to do one of the following exercises: 10 jumping jacks, 10 deep knee bends, or 10 touch your toes b. Exchange cards with another person, keeping the cards face down 3. Continue with other groupings, such as “groups of like rank”, pair up with like color and rank, arrange by suit and rank with Ace being #1 Facilitator Notes Notes for Facilitator: • Pre-arranging the cards ensures there will be even distribution of suits and ranks of cards • If a small number of participants, just reduce the number of cards used Reflection: • Was it hard not to look at your card? Why? • How did the group help each other? • What did it feel like once you were ‘placed’ into a group and asked to share/perform? Source: adapted from Cummings, Michelle.

Beaded Playing Cards – Ace of Hearts
Beaded Playing Cards – Ace of Hearts Katie Dean https://beadflowers.co.uk Design © 2020 Beaded Deck of Playing Cards © Katie Dean 2020, www.beadflowers.co.uk Beaded Deck of Playing Cards – Ace of Hearts This is an even count Peyote beading pattern. You will be working with size 11/0 Delica beads. I have given you the bead colour codes I used, down below. But please check each individual playing card for the quantities you need for that particular card. The finished size of each card is 2.75” (7cm) x 4” (10.5cm). I recommend you look for wholesale packs of these beads if you are planning to make multiple cards. You can also calculate the total number required for an entire pack of cards by adding together the quantity on each playing card. The introduction, on the next page, tells you how to assemble the cards and gives you some helpful advice for using this tutorial. This is suitable for anyone who enjoys working in Peyote stitch. If you need to learn even count Peyote, or want a little refresher, I recommend this free YouTube video https://youtu.be/VlY5CNYhOc4 . As long as you know the technique basics, it is very easy to follow the word charts I have provided. So, all you need is a little patience and some time to enjoy this! Design Note: because I chose the quickest, easiest Peyote variation (even count), I have had to take some liberties with the card designs. So, you will notice they are not perfectly symmetrical. I have calculated enough symmetry to make them look ‘right’, but you will notice the unevenness as you bead.

Genii Session 2007-12 Brief Updated History Of
Genii Session By Roberto Giobbi A Brief Updated History of Playing Cards When I published the German version of Card College Volume 1 in 1992, I included a short essay on the history of playing cards. In later editions I expanded on it and made a few corrections, among other smaller things I had committed a bigger mistake, namely that of assuming that today’s playing cards originated from tarot cards. The truth, as so often, is exactly the opposite, because playing cards were already in use in Europe in the second half of the 14th century whereas the game of Tarocchi and with it the Tarot cards was only invented in the first part of the 15th century in Italy. These mistakes were corrected in later editions of Card College and I’m therefore publishing this updated version of my essay for the benefit of all those who have the first few editions (we now have about 19,000 copies of Card College Volume 1 in the market). At the end of the essay I have also added a small annotated bibliography for all who would like to obtain more information about playing cards, their history, use, symbolism etc., a most fascinating subject. Rather than calling playing cards a prop, as it is often done in the literature, I would like to consider them to be an instrument of the card conjurer, like the piano or the violin is an instrument to a musician, and I would even dare saying that cards are the most important and most widely used instrument in all of conjuring.

BLACKJACK It’S Easy to Ace the Game of Blackjack, One of the Most Popular Table Games at Hollywood Casino and Around the World
BLACKJACK It’s easy to ace the game of Blackjack, one of the most popular table games at Hollywood Casino and around the world. Object of the Game Your goal is to draw cards that total 21, or come closer to 21 than the dealer without going over. How To Play • The dealer and each player start with two cards. The dealer’s first card faces up, the second faces down. Face cards each count as 10, Aces count as 1 or 11, all others count at face value. An Ace with any 10, Jack, Queen, or King is a “Blackjack.” • If you have a Blackjack, the dealer pays you one-and-a-half times your bet — unless the dealer also has a Blackjack, in which case it’s a “push” and neither wins. • If you don’t have Blackjack, you can ask the dealer to “hit” you by using a scratching motion with your fingers on the table. • You may draw as many cards as you like (one at a time), but if you go over 21, you “bust” and lose. If you do not want to “hit,” you may “stand” by making a side-to-side waving motion with you hand. • After all players are satisfied with their hands the dealer will turn his or her down card face up and stand or draw as necessary. The dealer stands on 17 or higher. BLACKJACK Payoff Schedule All winning bets are paid even money (1 to 1), except for Blackjack, which pays you one-and-a-half times your bet or 3 to 2.

Asexual Romance in an Allosexual World: How Ace-Spectrum Characters (And Authors) Create Space for Romantic Love
Asexual Romance in an Allosexual World: How Ace-Spectrum Characters (and Authors) Create Space for Romantic Love By Ellen Carter Published online: August 2020 http://www.jprstudies.org Abstract: Recent years have seen a surge in contemporary romance novels with ace- spectrum main characters who, despite not experiencing sexual attraction, still yearn for romantic and emotional connection and their happily ever after (HEA). They must navigate as outsiders an allosexual (non-asexual) world where sexual attraction is deemed normal, and where ace-individuals are pitied, assumed to be unwell, or suspected of having survived sexual abuse. This corpus study of sixty-five novels explores four approaches adopted by ace characters when negotiating romantic space in an allosexual world: an open relationship with an allosexual; a closed relationship with an allosexual; a polyamorous relationship with two (or more) allosexuals; or pairing up with another ace-spectrum character. Except for ace-ace relationships, these novels therefore tread unfamiliar territory in romance fiction because the sexual desires of the main characters are not aligned. In allosexual romance novels, a libido mismatch signifies an underlying physical or emotional problem to be overcome by one or more characters. However, in asexual romance fiction, non-aligned libidos are the norm and the characters must work together to understand each other’s sexual and romantic desires, and to co-create a new space in which all can thrive. In analyzing how ace romance fiction achieves HEA and how this can inform the lenses through which allosexual romance fiction is read, I look at several factors, including the co- occurrence of other queer orientations and identities; the authors’ orientation, especially those who identify as #ownvoices; how characters with different sexual desires handle consent; and discourses of romance versus intimacy.

PLAYING CARDS in LUCCA Franco Pratesi − 5 Ottobre 1995
PLAYING CARDS IN LUCCA Franco Pratesi − 5 ottobre 1995 Introduction At the present time, Lucca is one of the ten provinces into which the Italian region of Tuscany is divided (the last one, Prato, having been acknowledged only a couple of years ago). Viewed from today, one may find it surprising that the production and the use of cards in Lucca were so relevant as to deserve a treatment of their own, because this is to be expected for cards in an independent state as it was Tuscany or in its chief town, Florence. There are, however, a number of reasons which induced me to carry out research on the history of cards in Lucca. Historically, it must be realised that Lucca had, indeed, been an independent state for centuries, either as a republic or as a duchy, although not quite among the greatest in Europe. It was the last town of Tuscany to enter the Grand Duchy, in 1847, a few years before the formation of the Italian Kingdom. There are technical reasons too; in particular, several tarot packs from Lucca, preserved from old times, have the number of cards in the pack and some figures which are surprising. Apart from the keen interest in Lucca cards, which has recently arisen in the prolific environment of English collectors, I could find no specific study on them, except for a short communication, which will be mentioned, and used, in the following text. (1) A chronological order will be followed below, even if matters gathered are in themselves rather scattered − several original documents, a couple of cards, some laws, a book, and so on.
