Press Coverage of 2008 Champs - who's in charge? by
samsloan
by Theodulf on Fri Nov 16, 2007 8:34 am #78765
Who is in charge of putting together and implementing a serious plan
to get out information to the media about the US championships in
Spring 2008? Is this under the rubric of the VP for Marketing and
Communication? All partisanship aside, I think he can do an excellent
job at it if he feels like concentrating on publicizing a USCF event.
But...

Corrseponding Squares by
Petrovitch
I'm having trouble understanding corresponding squares. The orthadox
system is similar to Euclidean geometry when dealing with opposition,
but there are many instances where the pawn structure warps our
understanding of opposition revealing a curviture of space. If a
player makes what appears direct, distant, diagonal, or oblique
opposiiton the game will be lost; an understand of...

Praise what is good - Ken Sloan! by

Ken I assume this is you? - if so - what a wonderful chess anecdote - I'm

A Beautiful Mind. This letter has a strange provenance - beginning in
Alabama, but forwarded to readers' attention from IGM Adorjan in Hungary.

Goichberg's anti-Sam Sloan Revised EB election voting method by
samsloan
During the just-completed USCF Executive Board meeting, Bill Goichberg
made two proposals for governance re-structuring. The second was
obviously intended to stop Sam Sloan from winning another election to
the USCf Executive Board. Fortunately, neither of these proposals had
any support. Even Paul Truong, not generally known to be a big fan of
Sam Sloan, could not support them. Nevertheless,...

Ideas on the U.S. Men's and Women's Championships by
samsloan
Although your idea seems reasonable and has been suggested before, I
do not think it is workable, for several reasons:
1. The USCF already has trouble raising money for the USCF
Championship tournament every year. Under your plan, there would have
to be money raised for a qualifying tournament. There will be little
interest by the general public in this qualifying tournament, and the
players...

"Guests" on the USCF Issues Forum by
samsloan
The truth is finally out.
Tim Sawmiller has never read the Mottershead Report.
If he had read the Mottershead Report he would know this.
Is that why we are prohibited from discussing the Mottershead Report
on this USCF forums?

Sam Sloan beat USCF Master Richard Koepcke in 10 moves by
samsloan
Since we have so few cases of contested races in small
states, I don't know if we can definitively say whether or not it is
easier to get elected from a small state than from a large state.
The best example of the problem this would create is Mike Nolan
himself.
Mike is from Nebraska, a state with only one delegate slot.
Yet, for some unknown reason, Nebraska has produced more chess

The much awaited book, "Really Learn Spanish", has just been published
by Ishi Press International.
To be on-topic, you need the word 'the' between 'learn' & 'Spanish'.

Off with their heads; Off with their heads--Bill Hall by
parrthenon@cs.com
CIRCLING THE WAGONS
One is certainly disappointed in Joel Channing's behavior at the
last Board meeting. I had rated him, along with Sam Sloan, as our two
finest Board members. He may still be a positive influence, but his
comments about Donna Alarie, who has brought up disturbing news
indeed, were uncalled for.
To the man's credit, he has apologized.

Former Art Director Reports Photo Archive was Thrown Out by

Yes, and thank you for pointing this out.
I have been constantly attacked and maligned for the information I
have provided, but one by one everything I have written is being
proven true.
If and when the tapes of the five meetings I attended as a member of
the board are ever posted, as required by the by-laws, you will be
able to see that the true situation is vastly worse than even I...
