Will Sam Sloan share depositions? by
marcuswroberts@gmail.com
The Ethics Committee and Delegates are unfit to try Paul Trong or Glen
Peterson
The only place to try Paul Trong is in the civil courts. I don't think
that the conduct rises to a criminal level. I think both Sam Sloan and
Marcus Roberts should seriously sue the USCF. I am thinking of suing
the USCF in Illinois and Glen Peterson in IL. If Sam Sloan could sue
at the same time, we would have them...

Chinese Ballet - Is this possible? Is this real? by
samsloan
Take a look at this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5lN96dgt_Y
This performance is amazing and unbelievable.
It is an acrobatic ballet performance in Guangzhou (formerly Canton)
China.
I have difficulty believing this. Is there some trick involved?

Should the EB Member Resign? by
B. Lafferty[_2_]
Here is a post pulled by the USCF censor:
Wed Sep 26, 2007 7:44 am #71065
One would hope that the EB member posting falsely on rgcp to personally
attack other USCF members will do the right thing and resign from the EB.
Hopefully, this will happen before the NY Times becomes aware of this
situation. One can only imagine the harm that this EB member's action will
have on securing the...

GetClub Chess Game Tweaked. by
Sanny
A few things were adjusted. The game will play like earlier and will
not spend time on long calculations.
Lets see if the game plays better.
Play Chess at: http://www.GetClub.com/Chess.html
However, I was able to beat Beginner Level. Higher Levels will play
very good moves.

USCF Pension and Finance Problems and Slow Response From Board by
OdessaChess[_2_]
Help Requested from USCF Members & Delegates
by DACP on Thu Sep 20, 2007 11:06 pm #70258
For the past few months, I have not posted updates on the retirement plan
because I really thought that USCF was going to do the right thing and
resolve this issue promptly and fairly for all employees. It seemed prudent
to work within the system as best as possible.
I no longer believe that to be the...

What are the Moderators Doing?? by
samsloan
I think this is a serious problem. About 20 posts were pulled, by a
wide variety of posters, all having to do with USCF Governance.
I think that almost everybody will be outraged, even including those
who are generally docile.
If we cannot discuss USCF Governance here, what can we discuss?
It seems that the new rules is: We cannot discuss the rules of our
Rulers.

Famous Video: Sofia Polgar defeats Korchnoi by
samsloan
This famous video shows Sofia Polgar defeating Korchnoi in a blitz
game and then Korchnoi gets angry.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9k5oBgaZGI
The commentators on this video have it all wrong. In first place,
Sofia did not say that she has lost respect for him. She said the
opposite, that she was afraid that she would lose his respect. (Sofia
is a very gracious lady, by the way.) Next, the...

Questions about the "Gold Affiliate" status of Polgar by
samsloan
While checking for that, would somebody check to see how Polgar got to
be a "Gold Affiliate". When I was on the board I and the other board
members got lists of all checks received. No check was ever received
from Polgar for anything. This question was asked several times and
was never answered. Perhaps it was an offset for agreeing to have her
picture published on the cover of Chess Life...

From Zsuzsa, With Love by
samsloan
From Zsuzsa, with Love
In May, 1997, I received a telephone call from Zsuzsa Polgar. I was a
bit surprised that she called me, because I had not heard from her in
a while.
She asked me to come to see her in her private apartment, then located
at 95-60 Queens Boulevard, Apartment 807, Rego Park, Queens, NY 11374.
Naturally, I rushed right over.

Letters from Iwo Jima by
Sam Sloan
One problem with this movie is that it appears to be a historical
documentary. Some of the things that really did happen are mixed in
with things that are pure speculation.
For example, the baron who came with his horse who had won the Olympic
Gold Medal was a real person. He really had won the Olympic Gold Medal
and he really was friends with Mary Pickford. He really did die on Iwo
Jima. Sounds...

Police report on Marcus Roberts by
parrthenon@cs.com
MARCUS ROBERTS SECURITY GUARD
The readers here might be interested to know that when Marcus Roberts
showed up at the USCF Committee meetings in Cherry Hill NJ starting on
August 1, 2007, the USCF hired a private gun-toting security guard to
follow Marcus Roberts around as he went from committee meeting to
committee meeting. Just to make sure, I asked the guard if he had been
hired to follow...

It's quite an act over on the USCF Issue's forum with Bill the ventriloquist
and his dummy John Hillery. Don't miss it. Admission is only $41 for
adults; $25 for young adults.
