Break/Jump Cue?

Here are some photos of my new Raven 4-Piece carbon fiber jump / break cue stick. It is even much more sharp looking than I expected, with a three-piece forged carbon fiber butt end that has an awesome looking pattern to it. The shaft is rolled carbon fiber, and really hits solid with the phenolic tip. I have already successfully dart jumped with the cue, and longer jumps are very simple. The package came with joint protectors, and I got a free bridge glove and Raven t-shirt. It appears to me to be a 10 out of 10 in terms of value, and as well as looks and playability.

Mosconi Cup 2025, Dec. 3-6, Alexandra Palace, London

The clock runs both ways +8hrs and -8hrs GMT

I'm not sure what your point is.

I was in London couple of years ago and it was a 6 hour time difference from St. Louis -- it's enough to throw you off some. I believe there is no time difference between London and Scotland and it's one of the reasons the Europeans chose to practice there.

THE POOL CONTINUES tomorrow (Thursday) at the Gandia Palace Hotel as the Predator Spanish Open gets underway in both open and women’s divisions.

Agree 100%. The success of MR/WNT/MC is not riding on how easy it is to find stream schedules. I've known since i was about ten what the time difference is to the UK. Maybe i'm just a friggin genius. No, that definitely ain't it. ;)
It’s because you have a Patek Philippe world timer just to show up Cocobolo Cowboy. You glance at the hunk of platinum on your wrist and laugh at people who don’t know the time in Geneve. Or you can look at the world time function that is in your cell phone. 😜

The Doggin' it guys are hoping for a single win today, sheesh.

I mean really, it boiled down to a handful of really bad mistakes and a few bad rolls. Is it really that bad?
The missed "easy" balls from Fedor, Billy, and Tyler....it ain't good. The fact that we could even beat two stumbling rookies in doubles, doesn't bode well for more than one point. The nerves the rookies may have had are all gone.

Most Americans watch live sporting via streaming now, which is fragmented at best. "Channels" account for 8% viewership. In my opinion, this is the ultimate result of enshittification, streaming is a piss-poor way of watching anything live. But it is what it is.

A little misleading. Streaming is 29%, not most. What you are lumping into streaming like YouTube TV, for example, is a viewing experience pretty much identical to cable tv and absolutely via a "channel" like ESPN, FSN, various sports networks, you name it. Now, you may "stream" via YouTube TV because that's where you get Peacock or ESPN+ or whatever via an app but the vast majority of live sports on YouTube TV, for example, is really no different than cable or satellite.
