Polgar Blog Humor by samsloan
These remarks are all being posted today on Susan's Blog at: http://susanpolgar.blogspot.com/2008/04/another-sad-day-for-uscf.html Some of the remarks are so typical of Paul Truong a/k/a "The Fake Sam Sloan" that he must have written them. For example: "I bet you we'll be able to get rid of Polgar and deport her back to Hungary soon. "Hah! That is a laugh Mr. Laughing Laugherty!

Joel Channing Talked a Better Game than He Played by samsloan
Joel Channing Talked a Better Game than He Played In Joel Channing's final interview, as reported in the New York Times, he said that since chess is a "zero-sum game" (in that there is always one winner and one looser) his efforts to make the USCF run like a business failed. http://gambit.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/04/11/united-states-chess-federation-executive-board-member-resigns/ That is not...

....the mag seems the same, though not quite as thick. The production value is better - a much slicker publication - but it seems like some of the old columns are gone. The feature articles are longer, though. Alex Dunne's correspondence chess column seems absent...is correspondence chess dead? Rendered impossible due to computers? I see they still print all the tournament life entries,...

Avoiding the Upside-Down Rook: Someone Else Must Have AlreadyInvented this Variant by Quadibloc
One of the older rules still used in some informal Chess play is that a Pawn can only be promoted to one of your own pieces that has already been captured. The intent of this rule is, of course, to permit Chess to be played neatly with one ordinary Chess set. One of the ways chess players have coped with the practical issue is to use an upside-down Rook to stand for a Queen.

Joel Channing's Threats To Resign by samsloan
Now, Joel Channing has posted to the USCF Issues Forum a statement that he resigns effective immediately if the vote to cancel the "Internet Insurance" passes. The problem with this is that at every meeting while I was on the board, Channing said that he was considering resigning. This is clearly part of his bullying tactics, saying "If you don't do things my way, I am taking my ball and...

Don Schultz defends "Internet Insurance" by samsloan
Yes the EB approved it but the stakes are now higher - the loss of an important Board member, who has opportunities in the oven and the fact that at least one Board member feels that the very existence of the USCF is at risk because of the potential magnitude of legal developments. Personally I agree with that assessment. Right or wrong, Susan's potential marketability is enormous and its...

Suitable time controls on the internet by KDP[_2_]
While I've always liked and enjoyed chess, I've never been a strong player. I've found that I tend to freeze up under time pressure so I've been playing alot of correspondence chess and have improved to the point where I'm ready to try some live games. I have an account at FICS and was wondering what type of time controls is appropriate. 5 and 10 minute games are definately out and although I...

The Devil - (round eye version).. by mudshark
G'day gruppe, I'm having an issue with 'the devil went down to Georgia'.
