Stepping Stones
Stepping stones or stepstones are sets of stones arranged to form an improvised causeway that allows a pedestrian to cross a natural watercourse such as a river; or a water feature in a garden where water is allowed to flow between stone steps. Unlike bridges, stepstone crossings typically have no spans, although wood planks or stone slabs can be placed over between the stones (which serve as the piers) to improvise as low-water bridges. Although their historical origin is unknown, stepping stones, along with log bridges, are likely to have been one of the earliest forms of crossing inland bodies of water devised by humans. In traditional Japanese gardens, the term "''iso-watari''" refers to stepping stone pathways that lead across shallow parts of a pond, which work like a bridge-like slower crossing. Using ''iso-watari'' for crossing ponds, or shallow parts of streams, one can view the aquatic animals and plants around or in the pond, like carp, turtles, and waterfowls. Today, ...

Stepping-stone Squeeze
The stepping-stone squeeze is an advanced type of squeeze in contract bridge. It is used when the declarer has enough high cards to take all but one of the remaining tricks, but does not have enough communication between the hands to cash them. It was analyzed and named by Terence Reese in the book "The Expert Game", also titled "Master Play in Contract Bridge". The following position is an example of a Stepping-stone squeeze: South has three winners: The K, A, and A. However, after cashing the K, there will be no entry to the North hand to enjoy the A. However, on the play of A, West is squeezed. Discarding a spade allows South to overtake the K to get two tricks in the suit. Throwing the A lets South cash the K. Therefore, West parts with the 3. Now South is able to play the K and lead the K, putting West on lead with only the Q remaining in hand. The name ''stepping-stone'' alludes to South's use of West's A to cross over to the abandoned A. This squeeze would work ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
