You’ll find that most paintings of players playing chess have a cat somewhere in the scene. This one has a wooden lion and a spider.

Opposite elements working in harmony enable perfect decision making: Calculation & evaluation, patience & opportunism, intuition & analysis, style & objectivity, management & vision, strategy & tactics, planning & reaction. Balance these forces and avoid the comfort zone. ~G.Kasparov

This view is facing north. The downtown skyscraper rooftops of the city of San Francisco can be slightly seen in the top center behind the distant ridge. Click on the image and look closely.

Circumstance
When you look at an object, you see one side of it at a time; the nature of vision. When you think about something, you think about it in one context at a time; the nature of thought.
Context determines what your mind thinks just as viewing-angle determines what your eye sees.

Nested Loop
The <div> tag is empty until the end of <script> where theString gets inserted into myTable. Tags & data for the table rows & columns get appended to theString at every “+=”. The table data <td> is nothing more than the product of the two factors x and y, the column and row indexes respectively.

Juggling
I choose to juggle this year and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard.
That goal will serve to organize and measure the best of my energies & skills. That challenge is one that I am willing to accept, one I am unwilling to postpone, one which I intend to win. -thank you John F. Kennedy

Reflect on the spirit embodied by monks at the Monastery of Christ in the Desert: Their daily work period starts at 9:40 AM and is for only 3 hours!
Asked of one monk what he does when the bell rings at 12:40 PM but he feels that his work is undone, he replied, “You get over it.“

Football
Life is so unfair. He wasn’t on the offense; his job was defense, not to catch the ball. But, he was playing the game. And what difference would possession make?
So the missed catch split his life, a mortal caesura so to speak, his life before and after the unexpected happening.
