How to Play Mumblety-peg
Mumblety-peg involves throwing a pocket knife deep into the ground. The position at which it hits the ground―sideways or straight up―decides the number of points. It involves different stunts that can be performed, which obviously gets more points. The name of the game is derived from a stick driven into the ground by the winner using a pocket knife, which the loser has to pull out using only his teeth, while mumbling curses at the winner.
Versions of the Mumblety-peg Game
Although the basic version of the game involves throwing a pocket knife into a circle in the ground, a variant of this involves two people standing away from each other and throwing a knife near their own foot. Whoever throws the knife closest to their foot without getting hurt, wins. If the player moves his foot, the opposing player wins.
Another version of the game involves throwing the pocket knife from different angles, and the other player tries to imitate the same and land it successfully at a straight angle with the blade thrust into the ground.
The last variant of the game is called 'Chicken'. The player is asked to keep some sticks between his feet. The other player then throws the knife as close to the center of the gap. The first player

How to Play Freeze Tag
In 2004, a school dinner lady in Dorset was partially paralyzed when a boy playing tag rammed into her. Unfortunately, her claim for damage was ruled out by 3 Court of Appeal judges.
Tag is a game that is enjoyed by the young and the old, the quiet and the noisy, the big and the small, and everyone in between.

But by far, one of the most popular of them all is Freeze Tag, which back here was called "Ice and Water". We bring you the instructions on how to play freeze tag, which can turn out to be a delightful use of a lazy Sunday afternoon!

Tips for Winning Jenga
Those who are familiar with the game can scroll down for some tips.
While those who are not familiar, the prime objective of this game is to build the tallest tower using only 54 pieces or blocks stacked one above the other. Each player/s receives a chance to remove one and only one block from any level of the tower (except the last and penultimate level) and place it on the top, thereby, increasing the height of the tower. A couple of things to remember here is each player/s is allowed to use only one hand while removing a block, and his/her turn is complete only when one block is removed from the bottom and placed on top.
So much so for the playing essentials. If the tower collapses during or after a move, the player causing the collapse is declared as the loser.
Now, you may have played the game at a friend's house party, and you couldn't get enough of it. So, you finally buy it for yourself, and now, you wish to become a pro at it. Keep the following tips in mind that are sure to give you an edge over your opponent, the next time you play Jenga.
1. Push the blocks, don't pull
When you pull a block out, the motion of lifting the block disturbs the balance of the tower, and causes it to topple over. Whereas, pushing or gently tapping a block out, distributes the load of the tower gradually, thereby, maintaining the stability of the tower.
2. Eliminate blocks at the center first

Step-by-step Instructions to Play Jacks
This game is played by tossing an object in the air, and picking up 'jacks' before the object touches the ground. Many variations of this game have developed over the years. For example:- "Tropa", where the object of the game was to throw the knuckle bones in such a way that they landed in a hole, dug up for the purpose of the game. Another variant of this game included the throwing of astragaloi onto a flat surface, and then counting the values of the sides on which the bones fell. The different faces of the bones, fetched different points. The convex side scored 1 for the narrow part, and 3 for the broad part. Similarly, the concave side scored 6 for the narrow side, and 4 for the broad side. Later, more variations for the throwing of bones were developed, and given specific names such as Midas, Alexander, Venus, King, Vulture, etc.

Basic Rules to Play Rummikub
Only the first meld or the 'initial meld', as it is called, is determined beforehand, wherein a player is required to form a sequence summing up to a minimum of 30 points. The point value of each tile is equal to its face value; if jokers are used, their value is equal to the tile they substitute. The initial meld is necessarily supposed to be a fresh sequence; a player cannot lay off tiles to an existing sequence on his/her first turn.
Given below are the instructions to play Rummikub. Check them out!
How to Play Rummikub
✦ To play Rummikub, it is essential that you understand the type of acceptable sequences or sets. A player can place tiles on the table (play area) only by forming 'groups' or 'runs'.
✦ A group typically includes three or more tiles of the same number, and each with a different color.
✦ Runs comprise a sequence of three or more consecutive numbers, all belonging to the same color.
(Note: In a run, number 1 is considered to be of the lowest rank, and can't follow 13 in any case. For instance, 1-2-3-4 is a correct run, whereas 11-12-13-1 is not.)
Beginning Play
✦ Rummikub requires a minimum of two to a maximum of four players to play. The objective of the game is to place all the tiles on the table in appropriate sequences, and the first player to do so wins the game.

Indoor party games help guests open up to each other and the best part is that they can be enjoyed in all seasons. So, let's take a look at some fun indoor games that can help brighten up your party.
There is a huge list of indoor games which can make your party the most memorable one. Following are some of these games, which can be enjoyed by all. Have a look!
Indoor Games for Adults
~ Taboo is a fun-packed game that makes you stay on your toes, think real fast, and tests your mental ability.
~ There are two teams that play against each other. Each member of the team picks a card with a word on it, which he has to convey to his teammates by explaining the concept behind it.
~ While doing so, he cannot use the 4 words that are taboo (can't use them for describing the main word).
~ These words are the most obvious options that you would use to describe the main word.
~ For example, the main word that you need to convey is 'basketball' and the taboo words are 'sports', 'Michael Jordan', 'net', and 'dunk'.
~ These four words, as you can see, are some of the most obvious words that you would use to describe 'basketball'. If you use any of the taboo words, you get negative markings.
~ You need to get as many words as you can in a
Driving Games for Kids
You learn how to obey the traffic lights at four-way intersections. The traffic light system in the game is similar to the traffic light convention that is followed on the roads. The three-way traffic light system uses three colors―red, yellow, and green. The red light means your car has to stop, the yellow light means you have to take caution, and the green light means you can proceed. You also learn how to take a car out of a parking space and leave a parking lot. Of course, the games are no substitute to going to a driving school.
The free games use the keyboard to control the movement of the car. The up arrow key moves the car forward, and the down arrow key moves the car in reverse. The left and right arrow keys move the car to the left and right. The space bar key has different functions in different games. In some games, it is used to put the brakes on the car; in others, it is used to make a U-turn or jump.

2016 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R vs. 2015 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 - Head 2 Head Ep. 71
There's a muscle-car war brewing in Detroit these days. Right as the handling-champion Z/28 goes out of production, Ford delivers a Shelby-badged suckerpunch with a flat-plane-crank V8, MR dampers, and carbon fiber wheels. Head 2 Head host Jason Cammisa takes the two through a series of challenges: first, some canyon carving to see which car is better on the road. Then, a Dyno shootout: can the GT350R's 5.2-liter Voodoo make more power than the venerable 7.0-liter LS7? And then, it's onto Chuckwalla Valley Raceway where Jason and racecar driver Randy Pobst find out not only which one is faster around the track, but which car handles best. No muscle-car comparison test would be complete without a drag race, of course, so Cammisa lines up the cars with the help of his cousin Bob from West Virginia. This episode of Head 2 Head, presented by Tire Rack, is the one-stop shop for everything you need to know about the latest Detroit muscle-car rivalry.

Upon her debut in 1966 as the first TV Land Gal on a mission, Marlo Thomas in That Girl rapidly scored points and set the bar for those to come. Topping off her first season with a well-deserved Golden Globe Award, Thomas went on to secure no less than four successive Emmy nominations in each of the show's remaining four years on the air. And what a girl was That Girl!
I remember growing up when TV was a world of its own, characters were real, and series held true to an ongoing story. It was like checking in on the latest scoop on the neighborhood, and That Girl was front and center. Marlo Thomas' character, Ann Marie, was America's first single girl out and about, an aspiring actress growing up in front of us, and maturing into a confident woman of her own terms. Long before Rhoda, Mary Tyler Moore and literally decades before those fabulous sexy gals in Manhattan ever even knew what a Cosmopolitan was! It was an innocent age for most of us, yet it was the '60s and that innocence was soon to be tested.
Watching this hilarious review from my childhood, I was very impressed with both the quality and clarity of the shows, having watched the bulk of them in black and white as a child, I was quite taken with it. Shout! Factory once again does an excellent job in bringing the very best of pop culture back to the forefront.
That Girl starred Marlo Thomas, who was also was the producer; Ted Bessell as her boyfriend Donald Hollinger; and Lew Parker and Rosemary DeCamp as her doting parents. Thomas was an icon for little girls of the time, each wanting to grow up and be just like Ann Marie. The show's popularity far outlasted the five seasons it in first run, and set a precedent for appealing strong women characters to follow for the years to come.
With trend setting designs to adorn her by Oscar de la Renta, Cardinalli, Halston, and Courreges, Thomas was stylish and determined, yet vulnerable.
The That Girl: Season One DVD is loaded with rare and never-before-seen extra features, including the That Girl pilot; a brand-new interview with Marlo Thomas on the making of the show; and "That Girl in New York," a collection of raw footage shot on location in New York and narrated by Thomas and co-creator Bill Persky.
This glorious walk in the past is coming out on a five DVD set May 16, 2006, in stereo. At a SRP of $39.98, this is a must have for your collection.

It looks to me like the hidden window is created on startup, and lasts until shutdown. Thus we should not traverse it. This contains things (looks like maybe 500 DOM nodes?) and is traversed on OSX. It contains things on Windows, even though it is a different type of document, but I don't know if it is really traversed there. Hopefully this is doable by modifying nsCCUncollectableMarker. I'm not sure why it isn't caught by that already.
