As you all know that the first issue had some technical mistakes, we tried
our best to improve this issue and we think that we did our homework pretty
good this time.



Frederick Douglas said "If there is no struggle, there is no progress." He
was the African American Orator, Journalist and Civil-Rights Leader,
1817-1895.



We agree with Frederick. Sometimes, struggles are exactly what we need in
our life. If we were to go through our life without any obstacles, we would
be crippled. We would not be as strong as what we could have been. Give
every opportunity a chance, leave no room for regrets.



You are the better judge of our struggle; so far we have about 500
registered subscribers. We need your feedback about this issue, which will
help us to produce even more comprehensive online chess publication. We are
looking for 500 more for the next issue. Distribute this issue among your
friends; post the news on your websites/news letters, your "word of mouth"
will help us a lot.



We looking forward of your feedbacks!
Enjoy your magazine!



"Life has meaning only in the struggle. Triumph or defeat is in the hands of
the Gods. So let us celebrate the struggle!" Swami Sivananda
