I play a little "blindfold chess" (without sight of the board) and would like to improve my play. I have noticed that I have two problems. After about twenty moves, I can still remember where the pieces are, one at a time. However, I cannot see the whole board in my head.

Doing an internet search, I found the following link: http://www.al.com/news/mobileregister/index.ssf?/base/news/10625810186091.xml Evidently, Sherzer's case begins Thursday (9-18). Perhaps they'll be a few articles published about the case in the local Alabama papers. I still have not found any information telling if the trial will be made public, and if reporters will be allowed in. There was...

The word is out: USCF plans to give the Books and Equipment business to Malcolm Pein. The deal which was negotiated by Tim Hanke will be inked at the Executive Board this weekend. This is, of course, a great idea, but I do have a couple of small questions about it. Malcolm Pein lives in England and has no office or operations in the USA.
