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...

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...

Goichberg the Vaudevillian by OdessaChess[_2_]
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.
