The rumor is he's a big crook trying to extort money from the USCF by suing them. Another rumor is Donna Alarie and Brian Mottorshead are in the same scheme for money. Is it true?

USCF Forum, discussed by Chess One
If the moderators are secret, then how can it be claimed that Dr Blair is not a moderator? As a member of the FOC Louis Blair is prohibited from being a moderator. The two are separate entities. They are intimately related entities - do not the FOC, engage the moderators as to policy - and how instanced are there recommendations? in other words, i rather doubt that there are...

The Trolgar Concept of Ethics by Shadow
Now that Rob knows they're married, lets restate the facts: 1.

The Slave Children of Thomas Jefferson by Sam Sloan

In his last inventory, taken 50 years later in 1824, Thomas Jefferson also had 187 slaves. Thomas Jefferson died on July 4, 1826 at...
