My wife Kathy and I recently visited New Braunfels, Texas, for some rest and relaxation. It rained about half the time, but the sun did finally appear, so we loaded up the pups and ventured out in search for a good trail to hike. After two failed attempts to find the trails we were looking for, we ended up at Landa Park, which we initially dismissed as being too easy and too short. As it turns out, the park is gorgeous, with nice walking paths, big trees, and plenty of wildlife.
This tree was planted over 300 years ago!
There were several different kinds of ducks and geese in the park, and they were all friendly.
The water in Dry Comal Creek was crystal clear.
I've been wanting to take some photos of bluebonnets, the state flower of Texas, but they're mostly gone for the year. I finally managed to snap this photo at the park.
There were countless squirrels in the park, and they drove the pups crazy. After being chased up a tree, the squirrels would typically climb to a safe place and check us all out.

Mr. Cameron's apology left me humbled as it was the first time that the British establishment has taken responsibility for what happened in Northern Ireland, kudos to him. I hope this will herald a brighter future and will allow the three governments to work together in a more positive way.
There is a long way to go but at least there is a willingness to put things right.
I for one salute David Cameron

It sadly looks like a minority in the UK still cannot accept that the invasion and occupation of Ireland, and the subsequent handling of issues in Northern Ireland, were a mistake, were accompanied by brutal state terror, and were quite simply wrong.
|Quoting oa260 (Reply 13):
There are on both sides , you still have the idiots that think they are somehow going to re unite Ireland by planting bombs even if it means killing their own Irish Catholic brothers. Just like we saw in Omagh. These people are nothing more than criminals, the majority on the Island voted for peace and anyone caught these days trying to cause trouble should be banged up for life with no early release and a shoot to kill policy should be in force on both sides of the border if need be.
|Quoting shamrock604 (Reply 11):
It sadly looks like a minority in the UK still cannot accept that the invasion and occupation of Ireland, and the subsequent handling of issues in Northern Ireland, were a mistake, were accompanied by brutal state terror, and were quite simply wrong.
Anyway, I trust from the generally positive response in the British media that such people are thankfully in the minority.
|Quoting shamrock604 (Reply 14):
While I accept that many wrongs have been committed on both sides, we also have to accept that it was Britain's occupation of Ireland and it's policies during that time that caused this conflict in the first place. From that occupation, came plantations, the theft of lands, the displacement of populations, and the ultimate partition of the country (even if that partition was designed to protect at least one side of the community)
|Quoting shamrock604 (Reply 14):
Shoot to kill is exactly what got us in this mess in the First place. The widespread abuses of civil rights gave carte blanche to the security forces, and their subsequent actions fuelled radicalisation on both sides.
|Quoting GDB (Reply 15):
Sinn Fein coming clean and admitting the IRA's long and extensive use of drug running and other crime would be good.
|Quoting GDB (Reply 15):
The fact remains the Protestant majority have been in N.I. rather longer than those who consider themselves the indigenous in many nation states today.
From the North and South and America and many other places.
Who we now call the British were colonised by Romans and Normans - and raided by Vikings as well as African slave traders.
It's everywhere.
|Quoting oa260 (Reply 17):
If someone is about to plant a bomb or refuses to stop and it known 100% that they are carrying something in a car then there is no issue but to shoot to kill. Its going to save lives.
|Quoting bjcc (Reply 16):
If you put it into that context, you can understand why the feelings have been expressed, and I have to agree, they have a point. The running sore that Bloody Sunday caused, in Ireland, is mirrored to an extent in places Like Brum, and Aldershot, but for them there will not be a solution.
|Quoting shamrock604 (Reply 19):
If it is 100% known, then shoot the f*****r in the leg, arm or whatever and disable him. Trained officers should be well capable. A shoot to kill policy leaves security forces wide open to suspicions, which could only help fuel radicalism.
|Quoting GDB (Reply 21):
Then there was the effect of Irish PM De Valera, a one man recruiting army for hostile Ulster Loyalism.
He retarded the economic and social development of Eire for decades, small wonder the largest export was many of the best and brightest, or just those who wanted out.
Many, a majority, only had to go far as crossing the Irish sea to build a better life.
This one cannot be laid at the door of the 'Brits'.
|Quoting GDB (Reply 21):
There has always be a hypocrisy in the Orange Order and the like, they made much hay about the repressive 'Priest Ridden' South, though they themselves were hardly getting with the programme with the liberalisation in the mainland UK which they pledged such alligence to.
|Quoting GDB (Reply 21):
Mention has been made of the serious injustices of the Guilford Four and Birmingham Six, however context is needed.
We enjoyed the rip roaring TV series Life On Mars a few years back, with it's depiction of 1970's British policing.
On one hand there is a humour in the unreconstructed, very un 'PC' attitudes, on the other, the physical interrogation and fit ups.
|Quoting GDB (Reply 21):
1916 - Would the British response had been as severe if most of the nations young men were not fighting the First World War, with all the horrors that brought?
Again, we can never know.
To many in the UK, the Easter Rising would have been seen as possibly another front in this world war.
|Quoting shamrock604 (Reply 19):
This is why I am not in favour of charges being brought against the Paras. Given that prisoner release was one of the main tenets of the peace process, it would be unfair to now seek redress in the other direction.
|Quoting GDB (Reply 23):
Before independence, the two islands were closely intertwined, culturally in particular, large numbers of Irish - not of the north, served in the British Army including in WW1. And would in WW2, after Irish independence.
There were large numbers then, as now, of Irish living and working in Britain.
Of course a substantial number of Irish always wanted independence, that grew after attempts at a political home rule agreement was stalled more than once.
|Quoting GDB (Reply 23):
So yes, for these reasons many in Britain did see Ireland as naturally part of Britain, not as a far flung colony peopled by those of a different race and creed, however odd that might seem now, they saw Ireland the same way they saw Scotland.
|Quoting shamrock604 (Reply 25):
Much has been said by both of us about moving on. To move on, we need to admit the truth, and Britain needs to face up to how shocking its colonial past was. The double standard of fighting against German invasion, so glorified in Britain's history, and of doing plenty of the invading itself to other nations needs to be realised. The British need to break through their self imposed facade of pride and glory. Some humility, as shown so graciously by David Cameron this week, does an awful lot to heal old wounds.
|Quoting bjcc (Reply 26):
What does strike me as strange though, is that Eire, is very much more pro the EU than the UK. Are you not exchanging one 'master' Nationality and identity for another, hardly independence.
|Quoting Braybuddy (Reply 28):
There are two main differences here: as a memeber of the EU we get to keep our own identity (even if we've handed-over a lot of decision-making to Brussels), Crucially we have (like all the other EU members) an input into this decision-making.
|Quoting NAV20 (Reply 30):
Not content with that, once they had killed off enough Free Staters forcibly to be able to set up the Irish Republic, they 'started again' with a fifty-year campaign of terrorism aimed at forcing the people of Northern Ireland (a clear majority of whom wanted to remain part of the United Kingdom) to become part of said republic........
|Quoting EISHN (Reply 31):
Now, when we say Protestant and Catholic, it really had nothing to do with religion, we all know it was political. Protestant is Unionist, and Catholic is Nationalist.
|Quoting NAV20 (Reply 30):
First point is, Southern Ireland 'achieved' - or 'was granted' - 'Dominion status' in 1921. This effectively made it as independent as Australia or Canada.
|Quoting EISHN (Reply 31):
The march that took place on Boody Sunday was a Civil Rights march for Catholics, and the Unionists did everything they could to squash them.
Now, when we say Protestant and Catholic, it really had nothing to do with religion, we all know it was political. Protestant is Unionist, and Catholic is Nationalist.
|Quoting EISHN (Reply 31):
we can talk as much as we want about who was right and who was worng. We weren't there.
|Quoting NAV20 (Reply 34):
Sorry, EISHN, but that seems to confirm, rather than deny, my impression that politics in Ireland in those days were based on religion, not 'policies
From a unionist perspective, Northern Ireland's nationalists were inherently disloyal and determined to force Protestants and unionists into a united Ireland
In the 1970s, for instance, during the period when the British government was unsuccessfully attempting to implement the Sunningdale Agreement, then-Social Democratic and Labour Party (SDLP) councillor Hugh Logue described the agreement as the means by which unionists "will be trundled into a united Ireland". This threat was seen as justifying preferential treatment of unionists in housing, employment and other fields. The prevalence of large families and a more rapid population growth among Catholics was also seen as a threat.
From a nationalist perspective, continued discrimination against Catholics only proved that Northern Ireland was an inherently corrupt, British-imposed state
The Unionist government ignored Edward Carson's warning in 1921 that alienating Catholics would make Northern Ireland inherently unstable.
The Sunningdale Agreement was an attempt to end the Troubles in Northern Ireland by forcing unionists to share power with nationalists.[citation needed] The Agreement led to the establishment of a power-sharing cross-community Northern Ireland Executive and a cross-border Council of Ireland. The Agreement was signed at the Civil Service College (now the National School of Government) in Sunningdale Park located in Sunningdale, Berkshire, on 9 December 1973. Unionist opposition, violence and a loyalist general strike caused the collapse of the Agreement in May 1974.
|Quoting bjcc (Reply 26):
On the subject of the Birmingham 6, and Guilford 4, it should be remembered that at the time, forensic science was a lot less advanced, and that evidence also pointed very much to the guilt of the people concerned. That evidence becoming, unreliable, was the main reason why they were eventually cleared. Of course, that does not mean they didn't do it, just that there is insufficient evidence to justify the conviction. I do have to contrast the UK's legal process though with that of the IRA, where once your knee cap is removed by gunshot, there is no room for appeal, on the basis of evidence becoming available.

|Quoting NAV20 (Reply 30):
In my opinion a helluva lot of the 'troubles' of the Irish people over the last hundred years or so have been self-inflicted. As far as I'm concerned, all those tragedies just proved what anybody with any sense knew already.
|Quoting EISHN (Reply 36):
In NI the police for was the Royal Ulster Constabulary (RUC), who were utterly biased towards the NI government ruled by hardline Unionists.

The RUC did have this element, however,

Irish people had their lands stolen, and were forced to pay crippling rents for those same lands pushing them into abject poverty and making them reliant on one crop - the Potato. Ireland's Fault?
|Quoting GDB (Reply 39):
This was the era of dark satanic mills, kids up chimneys, terrible squalor, industrial injuries and disease, the governments then shit on by it's lack of action, on Britons at the bottom of the heap just as much as in Ireland.
|Quoting shamrock604 (Reply 38):
Would you dare question what happened the Jews under Hitler? No. So why question what happened us?
|Quoting NAV20 (Reply 34):
But none of that will excuse the deliberate policy of the Provisional IRA, over decades - which was to make indiscriminate war on innocent civilians, on what amounted to 'religious grounds.'

The news out of the Merion Golf Club Monday is not good, not when it comes to the weather anyway. Thunderstorms whacking the course; bunkers filling with waters; maintenance staff giving everything they have to sopping up the mess.
Meanwhile, Canadians at least have plenty to cheer for this week, and the weather is supposed to improve for the tournament itself, which starts Thursday. Their fellow citizens David Hearn, who tied for 18th Sunday at the FedEx St. Jude Classic in Memphis, made it through sectional qualifying a week ago, along with his countrymen Mackenzie Hughes, the young pro from Dundas, Ont. who won the last two Canadian Amateurs, and Adam Hadwin, the gifted golfer from Abbotsford, B.C. This threesome was always headed for Merion.
Mike Weir, in the end, also got in, and who wouldn't be pleased for him? He's been making progress after many, many miserable months, and he shot eight-under-par in the same qualifier as Hearn. Weir got into an 11-man playoff for seven spots, but didn't make it through and on to Merion that way. He got in off the alternate list, a list that's difficult to understand. Weir was first alternate in his qualifier, but other golfers in other sectionals were also first alternates. As the Associated Press golf writer Doug Ferguson tweeted this morning, "wish the USGA would say ahead of time the pecking order from sectional qualifying."
That makes four: Hearn, Hughes, Hadwin, and Weir. The USGA added a fifth Canadian to the field this morning. That's Ryan Yip. The 27-year-old Calgarian has a couple of pro wins to his credit. Before he turned pro in 2006, he won the 2002 Alberta Amateur and was a quarter-finalist in the 2005 U.S. Amateur, which was played at Merion. He told the Calgary Herald's Brody Mark that he still has his yardage book from that championship, and that he was watching the FedEx St. Jude Classic to see how it would end because he pretty much knew what had to transpire for him to make it into Merion.
Yip had played the sectional qualifier in Springfield, Ohio. He got into a four-man playoff for a couple of alternate spots, and ended up fifth alternate for Merion. Again, don't ask the meaning behind that. I'm a golf writer, not a numerologist or post-doc in math. I do know that Yip was the first alternate out of his site.
The top 60 in the official world golf ranking after Memphis got into Merion automatically. The USGA held back six spots for players who could conceivably play their way in that way at Memphis. Stanley had played his way into the top 60 by finishing third at the Memorial in Dublin, Ohio two weeks ago. He didn't play Memphis, but it didn't matter as far as Merion goes because only one player out of the possible six played his way into the U.S. Open there. Stanley was ranked 60th when the Memphis tournament. Ended. He was in Merion.
That meant the USGA could let in five more players off the alternates list. Yip was the fifth alternate, and so he'll be playing his first major championship. He and Hughes, by the way, both attended Kent State University, where Markham, Ont.'s Herb Page, a member of the Golf Association of Ontario Hall of Fame, coached them. Page is an unsung hero when it comes to grooming golfers. Page has worked at Kent State since 1978. His players also include Nationwide Tour winner Jon Mills and Vancouver's young star Eugene Wong, the winner of the 2012 Canadian Tour Championship. I conduct a discussion every year at a charity tournament that Dick Grimm, known here as Mr. Golf in Canada–as he should be–hosts. His close pal Craig Stadler has come up every year I've been involved. He plays nine holes with a young Canadian pro as part of the day. He played with Yip two or three years ago at the Coppinwood Golf Club in Uxbridge, Ont. We chatted during the Q&A about what he observed.
Stadler looked directly at Yip when he said, "Ryan, I don't see any reason you shouldn't succeed as a tour pro. You can really play. I saw it out there." Yip listened to Stadler, the winner of the 1983 Masters. He spoke about how hard it was to stand over a putt on the Canadian Tour on Sunday when he knew that if missed it, well, he might not be able to afford getting to the next tournament. He wasn't complaining, but he was stating a fact with which the vast majority of young pros must contend and overcome.
Here's what Yip tweeted after he learned he was in the U.S. Open field, at Merion, eight years after he played the U.S. Amateur there.
"It's been a long eight years but I will be back at Merion. Go figure. My first National Open is the U.S. Open."
Good for Yip, and already I'm tired of all the jokes people make about his last name. I hope his golf will speak for itself. That's also true for Hearn, Hadwin, Hughes and Weir. And for Stanley. There's a Canadian connection to Stanley, the winner of the 2012 Waste Management Phoenix Open. More on that later.

[This is a guest blog post by Ed Kaim. Ed runs SharpLogic, a technology consultancy in Redmond, WA, that specializes in using Microsoft platform technology to build RIAs. SharpLogic has worked with the Messenger API from its earliest days to build collaborative software.]
I was recently working at my desk when I had the revelation that Windows Live Messenger is my most-used application. It occurred to me that virtually every aspect of my computing life involved Alt+Tabbing between a piece of software and an IM conversation.
- When in Office I was pinging people for data and to review documents together.
- When in Visual Studio I would switch to chat about design issues, bugs, and source control.
- When in a browser, I was constantly sending and receiving links to news, videos, etc.
As a collaborative tool, Messenger helps me solve a lot of the issues I'd have a difficult time dealing with over the phone (inconvenient) or in email (too slow). However, there is still one inconvenience with IM in that it breaks my workflow. Right now I have to leave whatever I'm doing to jump over to IM to collaborate, and then leave IM to get back into the original app. It's not necessarily a big deal, but why isn't the integration better? For example, wouldn't it be great if I could just IM a video directly from YouTube to someone on my contacts list? What about notifying a colleague I'm waiting for an exclusively checked-out file directly from VS?
This is the dream of true real time social collaboration, and we're a step closer today.
The recently released Windows Live Messenger Web Toolkit enables developers to expose IM capabilities from their Web applications. With these features integrated, users can log into Messenger while on a Web site, and then the site can help them collaborate with other users via IM without having to leave the original experience.
The Toolkit provides the Web Bar and a set of HTML UI controls to make development incredibly easy. You can literally integrate IM with your site in a matter of minutes.
However, some sites will want to go even further. If you think about a great collaborative experience, sending IMs seems kind of primitive. Sure, it's great that I can IM you a URL, but wouldn't it be better if I could send you a site-defined "recommendation" that would be treated differently?
We've actually done this with Boost Events, a SharpLogic venture. Boost Events is a set of software and services designed to deliver great experiences for conferences. Our Silverlight UI integrates Windows Live Messenger so users can collaborate via IM while watching sessions, as well as being able to recommend sessions to each other.
In the screenshots below, two users have logged into Messenger from http://events.boostweb20.com/Events/MIX09. To recommend a session to another user, the first user drags that session's tile onto an IM conversation. The recommendation is serialized and sent over the Messenger channel as an "application message", which is deserialized and treated specially by the application to expose its own functionality. Messenger provides the underlying channel for messages, so there is no impact on our servers. Application messages are treated like other messages in the system, except that they're not surfaced as text IMs since they're intended to be transparent to all clients except those that expect them.
There are 2 classes you'll need to create to use ApplicationMessage functionality:
- Create a custom ApplicationMessage class. This class contains the data you want to send from one user to another. It also contains your app-defined ID. This ID must be lowercase and up to 64 characters. You should try to make this ID as unique as possible, although it must always be the same for this message class.
- Create a custom ApplicationMessageFactory class. This class will define how to serialize and deserialize your custom ApplicationMessage to text so it can be sent over the Messenger channel.
There are 3 aspects to using the ApplicationMessage functionality at runtime:
- Registering your ApplicationMessageFactory.
- After the user logs in, create a new instance of your ApplicationMessageFactory.
- Set the user's User.MessageFactory to your new instance.
- Check to see if your ApplicationMessageFactory is registered by calling your ApplicationMessageFactory.IsRegistered with your custom ID.
- If not, use ApplicationMessageFactory.Register to register it.
- Sending ApplicationMessages.
- When sending an ApplicationMessage, perform the following checks to be sure the other party can accept the messages:
- Make sure Conversation.SupportsMessageType supports MessageType.ApplicationMessage
- Make sure Conversation.SupportsApplicationMessageType supports your custom ApplicationMessage ID
- If the user doesn't support either of these, then they won't receive the custom message, so you should fall back to a text IM or send nothing.
- Send the message by passing an instance of your custom ApplicationMessage to Conversation.SendMessage.
- When sending an ApplicationMessage, perform the following checks to be sure the other party can accept the messages:
- Receiving ApplicationMessages.
- When handling the Conversation.MessageReceived event, check the value of incoming MessageReceivedArgs.Message.Type to determine if it's an ApplicationMessage.
- If so, cast it to ApplicationMessage and check its ID to see if it's yours.
- If so, cast it to your custom ApplicationMessage.
Work is required to take advantage of the real time collaborative features in the Messenger Library, but it's a fraction of what you'd need to invest if you were to build it on your own. Given the maturity of Messenger as an IM tool, as well as its ubiquity among users, it should be an easy choice to use this platform to extend your site with collaborative features.

Harmony Farm–Richard Belanger
Editor's Note: We produced this video way back in 2007. We recently revisited Richard Belanger's story and were impressed all over again by his eloquence. His simple description of his farm life still inspires us. We hope it speaks to you as well. He has since become involved with Ganados del Valle, a praise-worthy nonprofit whose mission is to assure that northern New Mexico's Hispanic and Native American food and farming culture and traditions are passed to future generations.
Near Abiquiú, about an hour north of Santa Fe, Richard Belanger and his ever changing band of assistants, associates and helpers grow some of the tastiest produce this side of the Rio Chama.
Whatever side of the river you're on, Harmony Farm is an excellent example of how people with drive, a little piece of land and a whole lot of hard work make good food from soil, air, water and seeds.
When we first met Richard Belanger on his small, but productive farm–Harmony Farm–he was difficult to interview. The guy never sat down! All of us have met someone who could be described as being a 'bundle of energy', this man was a trainload, a boatload of energy.
But we were patient, calm even. We were in Georgia O'Keeffe country. We were among arroyos, mesas, mountains and Kokopelli. We were in the land of locally grown chile, beans and corn. We had time.
The good food Harmony Farm is selling on market day, was picked the day before–sometimes even the morning of."
And eventually Richard found a space between tasks and graciously sat down with us for a friendly, philosophical interview.
The farm might feel isolated, but Harmony Farm is very much a member of the local food community. Their familiar blue bus makes its presence known every Saturday morning at the Santa Fe Farmers' Market. Richard told us that nearly eighty per cent of their sales happen at the market in five hours.
We saw first hand how they conducted business on a couple of hectic Saturdays. People can't wait for the blue bus to arrive. And why not? The good food Harmony Farm is selling on market day, was picked the day before–sometimes even the morning of.
It's fitting then, that you'll see this quote on their website from the first President of the Czech Republic, Vaclav Havel:
"I am in favor of things that have authenticity, roots, originality, verve, balance, taste, communications, challenge, relevance to their time–in short, things that make sense."
Like Harmony Farm.
Have you ever experienced the food and farming culture of northern New Mexico?

Cris's personal interests in fishing, hiking, gun sports and the outdoors has him sometimes doing hands-on work to protect the environment. "I help clean up properties that may be degrading environments in which I enjoy my sports activities," he says.

An Invitation
I am applying for a job. It relates to social media and trains. I have created a Facebook group here where you can share train related photographs, drawings, or ideas which I can then use in an application video I am in the process of putting together. If you need help with a project you may be working on in return (as long as it doesn't involve medical experimentation) I might be able to help you out.

Which Elite Chess Player of All Time Has the Most Natural Talent?
Impfren I have to agree with you I myself have been an unorthodox player all my life oh how I love to fish in troubled waters. I saw a few of his games amazing player .

Tony kapanny was a player who drew fischer at a philadelphia tournament when bobby was in his prime. Tony was also one of the board of directors of the phila chess club in center city.he passed on at 93 played tournament until 90 were he alive today he would tell you icc mystery guest71 has the most natural talent. In the year 1997 Tony told mystery guest71 as ha was giving tony a ride home from chess club. I quote; I must tell you something you are the best natural player I have ever seen in my entire life and I have seen them all come and go including Fischer. Imagine being on the recieving end of that statement? The interesting thing is he said this because he knew guest71 never read a chess book in his life never had any lessons teachers of any type. Yet he walked in off the street one day and began to beat experts and masters the first week and made it look easy. Tony said that in his late 80s. Too this day guest71 regrets not saying thank you but he was so shocked by it he never said a word.
Why do you unbury a scam which was revealed some 13 years ago?
Copypasting from a press clip of that era:
In an interview on 28th January 2002 with the Icelandic television Fischer denies he played GM Nigel Short or anyone else on the internet. This way Fischer helped to reveal former rumours stating he played on the internet as untrue. In fact, it was a Canadian network expert posing as the former world champion. He played many games with his multi processor engines on Internet Chess Club (ICC) against titled players.
guest71 was a bot feeding a chess engine.
Laszlo Polgar should be mentioned here.
I think it makes sense because unlike the silly people with natural talent who play(ed) chess, Laszlo made chess players.
Literally. He found a partner, said something along the lines of "Natural talent is nonsense, let us make science babies and prove it to be so." And then proceeded to make babies and...whatever your position on it is...reared them with tremendous intellectual talent manifest at a young age.
So in terms of natural talent for chess...the man made chess players.
An interesting question....I thought immediately of several players:
- Jose Raul Capablanca
- Bobby Fischer
- Garry Kasparov
- Mikhail Tal
- Magnus Carlsen
Even though I am not a big fan of Kasparov as a person, my two top candidates are
- Kasparov
- Capablanca.
You can decide for yourself:
Information about Capablanca;
"I was born in Habana, the capital of the Island of Cuba, on the 19th of November 1888. I was not yet five years old when by accident I came into my father's private office and found him playing with another gentleman. I had never seen a game of chess before; the pieces interested me, and I went the next day to see them lay again. The third day, as I looked on, my father, a very poot beginner, moved a Knight from a white square to a white square. HIs opponent, apparently, not a better player, did not notice it. My father won, and I proeeded to call him a cheat and to laugh. After a little wrangle, during which I was nearly put out of the room, I showed my father what he had done. He asked me how and what I knew about chess? I answered that I could beat him; he said that that was impossible, considering that I could not even set the pieces correctly. We tried conclusions, and I won. That was my beginning....(From My Chess Career,1920.)
Garry Kasparov:
"...That same evening of decision Garry's parents set up a position from the local newspaper column run by the old chess master, Suryen Abramian. Their little one, Garik (familiar form of Garry), did not raise his eyes from the board; after awaking the next morning--at breakfeast-- Garry suggested a move to solve the position. This amazed the family; no one had taught him the game. His father, curious, tested him on the notation for the different squares!...(From Garry Kasparov's Fighting Chess by Garry Kasparov, Jon Speelman and Bob Wade, Batsford,1995.)
Another candidate is Paul Keres (or perhaps Benko), who achieved success even though he grew up in an enviorment without any way of getting any chess knowledge: Throughout his childhood his only chess book was the outdated Dunfrense Manual of chess openings (and the weekly newspaper chess collumn). His chess growth was mostly through playing Online Chess (<g>) Games. (Correspondence Games)
Magnus Carslen is the most talented chess player ever, just look at the figures.
He was 9 when he startet to take chess seriously, four years after he became the second youngest GM (at that time, third now).
At age 19 he topped the FIDE ranking as the youngest ever - and he has had that position almost continously after that.
At the age of 22 he became the second youngest world champion of all time, a position he very likely could have had before if he had not refused to play in the candidates tournament two years earlier.
He has won 21 of the last 30 tournaments he has played. And we have to go back four years to find a tournament where he did not end up in first or second place.
He has the highest FIDE rating of all time, a rating that has been very stable since then. Number 2 on the rating list is 70 points behind.
And a lot more could have been mentioned.

The breezy cold, the clouds sail by,
Like lonely ships in ocean sky.
The grassy park is misty wet,
As when the first night that we met;
As when we wandered slowly there,
Beneath an ancient, starry air.
The twinkling city, far and deep,
Is slumb'ring softly in it's sleep.
They rest, while we alone roam free,
Beneath our vast eternity,
Above the city, gazing down,
Strangers at the edge of town.
Let's never break this spell we're under.
Let's flee into a world of wonder.
And all or nothing, hand in hand,
Let's find our place and make our stand.

It was Ann Althouse's birthday yesterday, and as she is one of my favorite bloggers, I'm more than happy to keep this linking ball rolling. So, keeping with tradition, (and you too, Simon), I'll add three of my favorite links here, here, and here. Admittedly, the third one I chose more for the passionate discussion in the comments that it generated.
Keep up the good work, Professor.
UPDATE: And as to the second choice, it seems I'm not the only one.

If you're looking for something light, simple, healthy and delicious, this is a great salad to throw together! I was improvising with what I had on hand, but was surprised at how much I loved this dish. The flavors work really well together- with sweet, savory, and creamy. It's also great because it fits into pescetarian, paleo and gluten free diets!
I'll admit that I didn't use exact measurements, so be sure to adjust to your specific taste preferences!
What You'll Need:
(1 large portion or 2 small portions)
1 can white albacore chunk tuna
1/2 small mango, diced
1/4 cup diced onion
1/2 avocado, diced
1/4 cup corn (I used canned but fresh or frozen would work as well!)
sea salt
fresh cracked black pepper
salad greens (I used baby spinach, but romaine or mixed greens would make great subsitutions)
*optional* chipotle dressing
What To Do:
Combine all of the ingredients together and serve over greens. Drizzle with chipotle dressing if desired.


text: Im a rightie and broke my wrist in June. I had nothing to do and started to watch the French Open and Wimbledon every day. This game got me hooked and I started to read up and watch videos for hours. I'd sit in front of the TV practicing my strokes. Since my wrist is still very weak I decided to try out the one-hand backhand. Thing is, when I just bounce and hit the ball in front of me, I can hit a pretty hard topspin shot. But when I get into a rally with a partner, I either frame or totally miss it and look dumb.

China overtook Britain as the world's second biggest market for art and antiques last year, said a report from the European Fine Art Fair (Tefaf) opening in the Netherlands Thursday.
The United States continued to dominate the international market with a share of 34 percent, said the report from European Fine Art Foundation, organisers of what claims to be the world's leading art and antiques fair.
"China became the world's second largest art market in 2010 with a global share of 23 percent, overtaking the UK for the first time," it said, referring to a "seismic change in geographical distribution".
"Auction sales in China totalled almost six billion euros ($8.5 billion) in 2010."
The international market rose 52 percent from a low point in 2009, said the statement, as luxury spending rose on the back of the global economic recovery.
The European Union's share of the market was 37 percent, a drop of 16 percent from a high in 2003.
The foundation warned that an EU "art tax" due to be extended to Britain, Ireland, the Netherlands and Austria next year "risks further damaging an already weakened European art and antiques market by encouraging vendors to sell elsewhere".
Tefaf will feature about 260 exhibitors in the southern Dutch city of Maastricht for 10 days from Thursday.
One of the highlights for this year's edition, the 24th, is a 1658 masterpiece by Golden Age Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn, entitled "Portrait of a Man with Arms Akimbo", priced at $47 million.
Vendors from 16 countries will exhibit more than 30,000 paintings, sculptures, pieces of furniture, jewellery, procelain, clothing and rare manuscripts.

The investors' money was commingled with that of Kwasnik's prior investors, and in some cases misdirected into the client trust account of Kwasnik's law firm. In all cases it was used to pay obligations owed to earlier investors and to satisfy preexisting debts of various Kwasnik-controlled entities.

text: As mentioned on this week's episode, Shawna's pick this week for TV viewing is The Writers' Room on The Sundance Channel. It's a great insight to some of the biggest shows on TV today — Breaking Bad, New Girl, Parks & Recreation, Dexter, Game of Thrones, etc. Each half hour episode is hosted by Jim Rash, Oscar winner for writing "The Descendants" and also an actor on "Community" — he's Dean Pelton, on that show. As writers of each show talk about the challenges they face with making a hit show every week, you gain greater appreciation for all shows — there are a lot of podcasts which TV fans and pros listen to with regularity to hear some of these writers talk about the process, but this is the first time anyone has devoted a TV series to the topic. Well worth the time, if you get The Sundance Channel — there are some great clips you can watch online, however, if you can't get the show through your cable or dish provider.
