I called up my buddy Trent to see what he was up to and he told me he was about to meet up with some girl he has been trying to fuck for while now. After a bunch of going back and forth he finally agreed to let tag along and see if I could help him get in there. It was all about the tale of the tape. If she met our requirements and surpassed 40 inches she would be a keeper. If not we would just drop her back off at the mall where we were supposed to pick her up and get rid of her.

Asian Development Bank invested $1.7 bln in Azerbaijan in 15 years
10 June 2014 [12:07] -
Starting from 1999, the Asian Development Bank (ADB) has invested $1.7 billion into projects in Azerbaijan, within 20 loans and one grant agreement, according to Samir Sharifov, Azerbaijan's Finance Minister.
Sharifov made the remarks on June 9 at a reception held in honor of the 15th anniversary of Azerbaijan's accession to the ADB.
"Some $1.334 billion have been drawn as of early this year under the loan agreements with the bank. The volume of used funds stood at about $570 million," the minister added.
He said that following the restoration of Azerbaijan's independence, the effective integration into global economic system was chosen as a strategic goal of economic policy, and this goal certainly would not have been achieved without cooperation with international financial institutions.
Sharifov noted that currently Azerbaijan ranks 26th in the world and 18th in the region in terms of possession of shares in ADB.
"ADB has actively participated in realization of infrastructure projects implemented jointly with the government and in holding reforms," Sharifov said, adding that these projects touched such areas as transportation, water supply and others.
"ADB projects cover both public and private sectors, and a representative office of the bank has been operating in Baku since 2004," Sharifov said.
The minister noted that Azerbaijan intends to continue strengthening cooperation with ADB to achieve the sustainable economic development goals.
Azerbaijan has been an ADB member since 1999. ADB's active loan portfolio all over the country reaches $1.2 billion. The country's participation share in the bank's capital is 0.5 percent.
ADB itself was founded in 1966 and has 67 members. The bank's headquarters is located in Manila, Philippines.
The leading shareholders of ADB are Japan and the U.S. (31.2 percent of the total share capital), India and China (12.8 percent), Australia, South Korea and Canada (16 percent) and so on.

Ford is demanding that rival General Motors pull a Super Bowl commercial that implies the Chevrolet Silverado pickup is more dependable than the Ford F-Series.
But GM stands by the ad and says it will run during Sunday's game.
In the ad, a driver in a Silverado navigates a post-apocalyptic scene. When he meets up with some friends, he notices one is missing. It turns out that friend was driving a Ford.
GM says R.L. Polk data shows Silverados remain on the road longer than other pickups. But Ford says it has the most pickups with 250,000 miles on them.
Ford may have the last laugh. The F-Series has been the best-selling truck in the U.S. for 35 years, and outsold the Silverado by nearly 70,000 trucks last year.

1868 Ten-Cents, Judd-647, PR 651868 Ten-Cents, Judd-647, Pollock-720, R.6, PR 65 PCGS. The obverse features the almost identical design used on large cents from 1843 to 1857, the reverse is similar except TEN CENTS is in the center of the wreath. It is probable that these patterns were prepared simply to exhibit the size and weight of the suggested coin rather than to illustrate a proposed design. Struck in nickel with a plain edge. Better struck than one might imagine for a nickel product from this period, the fields, however, are shallowly mirrored as are many regular issue proofs from this decade. Bright overall and untoned with a faint speckling of carbon on each side. (PCGS# 60647)

1. Findings 215 The Research, Development and Statistics Directorate exists to Alcohol and sexual violence: improve policy making, decision taking and practice in support of the Home Office purpose and key findings from the research aims, to provide the public and Parliament with information Andrea Finney necessary for informed debate and to publish information for future use. Sexual violence is a serious public health and criminal justice problem. Many men and women suffer sexual violence, a number of whom experience severe physical injuries or subsequently develop mental health problems. Alcohol is an important dimension in sexual violence – many perpetrators are drinking when they attack their victims or have alcohol abuse problems. Furthermore, many victims have alcohol 'problems'. This report presents the key findings from published UK and international research on the relationship between alcohol and sexual violence. As sexual violence is often Findings are produced by the committed in the context of intimate partner relationships, this report relates to Findings No. 216 Research, Development and (Finney, 2003a).

Fax: 020 7222 0211 firstname.lastname@example.com q Perpetrator alcohol consumption is sometimes associated with increased sexual violation and physical aggression (Brecklin and Ullman, 2002). q The tendency for drinking to be a shared activity, the pharmacological effects of alcohol and beliefs and expectations about the effects of alcohol are important in explaining why sexual violence is frequently committed by or against people who have been drinking (Testa and Parks, 1996; Abbey et al., 2001). q Many victims develop drinking problems as a response to victimisation and problematic drinking is an early predictor of post-traumatic stress disorder development among victims (Darves-Bornoz et al., 1998). Sexual violence affects many people's lives The British Crime Survey (BCS) estimates that profoundly. Among over 48,000 police less than one in five incidents of female sexual recorded sexual offences during the 12 months victimisation comes to police attention (Myhill to April 2003, there were more than 11,000 and Allen, 2002). In addition, a study of female rapes and almost 24,000 indecent assaults rapes coming to police attention in 1996 against females and over 800 rapes and 4,000 showed over one-quarter were not subsequently indecent assaults against males (Salisbury, recorded (Harris and Grace, 1999). 2003). However, official data considerably underestimate the true extent of sexual violence. © Crown copyright 2004 ISSN 1473-8406 Printed by: TABS The views expressed in these findings are those of the authors, not necessarily those of the Home Office (nor do they reflect Government policy)
Findings 215 The 1998 and 2000 sweeps of the BCS included self- • the characteristics and consequences of alcohol- completion questionnaires on sexual victimisation and related sexual violence provide the most recent and reliable figures on the nature • the role of alcohol in sexual violence. and extent of adult sexual violence. (Note: published BCS findings relate to sexual victimisation among women only.) Key research recommendations are also identified. According to the BCS 2000 (Myhill and Allen, 2002), about one in every 100 women (aged 16–59) had Prevalence of alcohol-related sexual violence experienced some form of sexual victimisation in the International research indicates a strong association previous year, just under half of whom had experienced between alcohol use – both 'drinking in the event' and long rape. This suggests there were an estimated 61,000 female term drinking patterns – and sexual violence. victims of rape in England and Wales in the year preceding the 2000 BCS. One in ten women reported Drinking in the event some form of sexual victimisation since the age of 16. Drinking in the event refers to drinking at the time of the incident. Some findings from the research on sexual violence and rape: • Sexual violence is undoubtedly perpetrated by and Research indicates a substantial proportion of sexual against both men and women (Emmers-Sommer and violence perpetrators are drinking at the time of the Allen, 1999 – US). incident: • However, adult victims are predominantly female • In a UK study of 142 men imprisoned for rape, 58% (Testa and Parks, 1996 – US). reported drinking in the six hours prior to the rape.

The assailant was a stranger in only 8% of rapes (Myhill and Allen, 2002). • A national US victimisation survey found offenders had used alcohol and/or drugs in 61% of sexual • Attacks by partners and ex-partners are also the violence incidents, most (76%) of whom had used incidents most likely to result in victim injury (Myhill alcohol alone (Brecklin and Ullman, 2001 – US). and Allen, 2002). (Note: in self-report studies there may be a tendency for perpetrators to over-report drinking in the event to minimise personal responsibility.) 'Sexual violence' refers here to any form of physical sexual assault, completed and attempted rape. The focus is on sexual violence against people aged 16 years and over, female victimisation and male perpetration except where stated otherwise. Research from the US is often drawn on as relatively little alcohol-related sexual violence research has Findings on the proportion of sexual violence victims been undertaken in the UK.

Licensed premises are also Studies indicate many sexual violence perpetrators are associated with greater frequency of sexual attacks 'heavy' or 'problem' drinkers: (Combs-Lane and Smith, 2002 – US). Alcohol-related sexual violence is more likely to occur in bars and at • Among 142 imprisoned rapists in the UK, researchers parties than at either person's home (Abbey et al., 2001). deemed 37% were 'alcohol dependent' at the time of interview (Grubin and Gunn, 1990). There is often both offender and victim drinking in incidents of sexual violence (Abbey et al., 2001 – US; Martin, 1992 • Among a sample of Canadian imprisoned offenders – US). Using US police report data, Amir (1971 – reported (72 rapists, 34 child molesters and 24 nonsexual in Roizen, 1997 – US) found two-thirds of alcohol-related violent offenders), almost half (46%) the rapists were rape cases involved both victim and offender drinking. This 'severe alcohol abusers' compared with 4% of the is likely to reflect the importance of drinking alcohol and of non-sexual violent offenders. Notably, differences in pubs and parties as settings for socialising and strongly drug abuse were less pronounced (Abracen et al., relates to the finding that most sexual assaults involve people 2000 – Canada). who know each other. Rarely, however, is the victim the only person to have been drinking (Abbey et al., 2001 – US; Martin, 1992 – US). Studies also indicate many sexual violence victims are For example, Brecklin and Ullman (2002 – US) found that more likely to be 'problem' drinkers: only two out of 859 female victims of sexual assault had been drinking when the offender had not. • A US study of 238 female undergraduate students found those with histories of severe sexual Outcome severity victimisation (attempted or completed rape) reported Research suggests that the severity of sexual violence varies greater weekly alcohol consumption rates than non- with alcohol use.

Ullman, 2002 – US). • In a Canadian study of 358 gay and bisexual men, Evidence on the effects of alcohol use on the level of alcohol abuse was almost three times more common sexual violation is mixed: among those who reported having experienced non- consensual sex by another man (in childhood, • Official data suggest sexual humiliation is likely to be adulthood or both) compared with non-victimised greater when the offender has been drinking (Roizen, men (Ratner et al., 2003 – Canada). 1997 – US). • Other survey-based studies suggest that rape completion is more likely if the offender has been Characteristics and consequences of alcohol- drinking (e.g. Brecklin and Ullman, 2002 – US) while related sexual violence others suggest perpetrator drinking is not related to rape completion at all (e.g., Abbey et al., 2002 – US).

However, offender drinking did relate to offender most often in cases of casual dates, and least the level of offender aggression which in turn related often in rapes involving spouses or family members. to severity of sexual violation. 3
Findings 215 Contrasting findings may relate to varying methods and definitions employed in different studies. There are a number of ways beliefs about drinking can Increased victim drinking levels are associated with affect behaviour: decreased offender aggression, victim resistance and physical injury (e.g., Abbey et al., 2002 – US; Brecklin • Alcohol is widely believed to increase sexual desire and Ullman, 2002 – US).

You're trying to decide who will win a game assuming optimal choices. The idea is there are x number of spaces, _ _ _ _ _ _ _. Player one goes and marks two consecutive spots. Then player two goes and does the same. The first player who cannot go WINS. So given the board before, this is one possiblity:
P1: x x _ _ _ _ _
P2: x x _ x x _ _
P1: x x _ x x x x
So player 2 wins. You're given an array where 0 represents a free space and 1 represents a marked spot. The array may have some spots already marked.
The only way I can think to do this is check every move, and for every move check if every possible move after results in a win. I can't even fully figure out how I would do this, but I was hoping there was a better way. Any ideas?

Ministry Mission Statement: Respect Life is a ministry that attempts to bring awareness within the parish to the clash between the culture of life and the culture of death.
Current Ministry Activities: On a yearly basis, the Rosary Crusade for Life is organized in our parish. Rosaries are said throughout the month of October for the end to all assaults on life. The parish count of rosaries said is added to the South Carolina statewide crusade rosary count. Our crusade culminates with an all-night vigil for life in conjunction with the Reilley Council, Knights of Columbus. Pro-life flyers are inserted in bulletins on Right to Life Sunday. Also in October, parishioners are encouraged to participate in the Life Chain at the government center in Beaufort. This is an hour-long, silent prayerful vigil in protest of the assaults on life.
In October white crosses are installed in front of St. Francis by the Sea church, each cross represents one million abortions performed in this country
In January, the anniversary month of the infamous 1973 U.S. Supreme Court Roe v. Wade decision, white crosses are held by participants in the Hilton Head Citizens for Life annual Rally for Life in front of St. Francis Thrift Shop on Route 278. Members of the parish also join in the annual mid-January Stand Up for Life rally on the State House steps in Columbia. Also in January, some parishioners and students from St. Francis by the Sea Catholic School go to Washington for the annual March for Life commemorating the 1973 decision. The crowd at that rally now exceeds 500,000.
The parish and school participate in the annual Spiritual Adoption held from August to May. Each month posters are displayed in the church narthex and in the school depicting the month-to-month development of the child in the womb. Also present are prayer cards to St Gerard Maiello, patron and protector of mothers and of children yet unborn. In the narthex are prayer cards Memorare prayer cards for religious freedom and for the closing of abortion clinics.
Prayer vigils, attended by parishioners, are held each Wednesday and Friday at the Savannah Medical Clinic, Savannah, GA, where abortions are performed. Vigil participants leave the parish parking lot after the 8 a.m. Mass and are back by noon. Participants walk up and down in front of the clinic praying the Rosary, for about one hour.
Current Volunteer Opportunities: Participants needed for all the above listed activities.
Abortion is an affliction of the heart and mind that causes the death of preborn children. Remedy – the grace of God as gained through prayer, penance and sacrifice. Please help fill that prescription – join the Spiritual Adoption League by praying each day for nine months for the life of an unborn child in danger of being aborted and for the parents of that particular child so that they may accept the grace and have the courage to allow the child to be born. Although the program is nine months long, many participants pray this prayer throughout the year:
"Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, I love You very much. I beg You to spare the life of the unborn baby that I have spiritually adopted who is in danger of abortion." Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen
Created, Loved, Redeemed by God …
(August) I'm here. You can see my photo in the narthex. I came into being when the nuclei of my father's sperm and my mother's egg united. I am very tiny but need only time and nourishment to grow and develop. Pray for me and my parents.
(September) Our spiritually adopted baby now is one month old. During this first amazing month of life, the baby has grown 10,000 times his size at conception. He is totally dependent on his mother for nourishment. However, he has a heart pumping his own blood and a backbone. He is very, very tiny. The baby is most vulnerable of being aborted during the next month. Pray that the Lord of life might move the heart of his mother to give him the most precious gift of all – continued life.
(October) Your baby is making progress, developing all of his external features and internal organs. His brain is functioning at 40 days. His mother can hear his heartbeat now on an ultrasonic stethoscope. His milk-teeth buds are present at 6 1/2 weeks. From this moment onward, your spiritually adopted baby grows and refines his body. Everything he needs to survive once he is born already is present by the end of the eighth week. Please pray for him and his parents.
(November) The baby now can squint, swallow and move her tongue. She sleeps and awakens. Fingernails and toenails form and she now has her own unique set of fingerprints. Sensitive to touch she will tightly grasp an object placed in the palm of her hand. She breathes amniotic fluid to help develop and strengthen the respiratory system, but she gets the oxygen she needs through the umbilical cord. She is about three inches "tall" and weighs one ounce.
(December) Our baby's brain has begun maturing – a process that will continue until she is about 14 years old. Her eyelids now are sealed shut and will reopen at seven months. Her taste buds are working. Nutrients consumed by her mother are passed on to her within an hour or two. Three hundred quarts of fluid a day are sent to our baby via the umbilical cord. Fine hair begins to grow on her head, eyebrows and eyelashes. Facial expressions similar to the baby's parents can be seen at this time. This month's rapid eye movements (REM) have been recorded – a sign of dreaming. I am about six inches tall and I weigh four ounces – a proper weight for a girl my age.
(January) Our baby is five months old and halfway to birth. He is very active. Sleep habits develop and his mother can feel him move and stretch, particularly when she is resting. He is getting bigger, weighing one pound, is about 12 inches "tall" and is strong enough to kick against the outer uterine wall and dent it. Some day he may play soccer! Up to now, although he swam with ease in his watery world, he was too small for his mother to detect because the inside wall of the uterus has no feeling. Babies born at this time have survived, however.
(February) "I rolled over today!" Baby is six months old. The baby now can roll over inside the womb. Her oil and sweat glands are functioning. A white film layer called veniz covers the baby and protects her delicate skin from surrounding amniotic fluid. The waxy substance will be quickly absorbed into her skin soon after she is born. She now can respond to sound. Her lungs are fairly well developed and she would stand a good chance of survival if born at this time.
(March) "I looked around today!" I now am seven months old. Beginning this month I use four senses. My eyelids open and close and my eyes look around. I can taste, touch, cough, yawn and hiccup. I now recognize my mother's voice. My grip is even stronger now than it will be after my birth. My hair is growing longer and the downy covering on the rest of my body is disappearing. During this time I will receive antibodies from my mother providing me immunity to a wide variety of diseases. I am between 14 and 17 inches tall and weigh about four and half pounds. I move around a lot and it is getting crowded in here!!
(April) I am eight months old now. I have long fingernails. I'm getting taller. I'm gaining weight – that layer of fat will help keep me warm after I am born. I am looking forward to my birthday and can't wait to see my mom and dad. Thank you for your prayers for my parents and for me.
(May) "I am here." The nine-month journey in my mother's womb is over. Thank you mother for allowing me to grow and develop within you. Thanks also to all who have prayed for me and my mother and father through the Spiritual Adoption program.
Throughout the year, announcements in the Evangelization section of the parish bulletin encourage prayer, meditation and action.
July 28 — a very important date
On July 14th (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjxwVuozMnU) and July 21st (https://youtube.com/watch?v=MjCs_gvlm), the Center for Medical Progress(http://www.centerformedicalprogress.org/2015/07/cmp-statement-in-reply-to-planned-parenthoods-cover-up-of-baby-parts-sales/) released undercover videos showing Planned Parenthood executives casually discussing the harvesting and sale of baby body parts. It was sickening. It was horrifying. In both videos, the abortionists filmed – Dr. Deborah Nucatola, Planned Parenthood Federation of America's senior director of medical services, and Dr. Mary Gatter, president of the Planned Parenthood Federation of America's medical directors' council, candidly discuss the harvesting and selling of body parts of aborted babies and the haggling of prices for these baby body parts.
The abortion giant claims they care about women but they don't – just look at their actions. Planned Parenthood gets more than $500 million a year in our taxpayer money and makes more than $100 million in profit, all the while having abortion quotas. The organization has been caught covering up statutory rape, double-billing and abetting sex traffickers among other issues.
Women have been betrayed by Planned Parenthood Federation. Families have been deceived. And the smallest among us have been the ultimate victims of Planned Parenthood's horrific business schemes. It's time to relieve Planned Parenthood of our taxpayer dollars.
Students for Life's Future Pro-Life section is coordinating a series of rallies throughout the United States on Tuesday, July 28. Rallies will call on federal and state legislators to investigate and defund Planned Parenthood now. (Contact information on local federal and state legislators is available in the Evangelization/Respect Life section of the parish website.)
There will be a prayer service in support of these actions following the 12:15 p.m. Mass at St. Francis by the Sea on Tuesday, July 28. Please plan to attend.

Circle Bert Blyleven in his Hall of Fame cap [PHOTO OF THE DAY]
Bert Blyleven looked pretty good in his Twins ball cap for all those years he was was notching strikeouts and shutouts. But we have to admit, the new head gear from the Baseball Hall of Fame suits him pretty well.
In case you missed it, he'll be officially inducted into the Hall on July 24 at the Clark Sports Center in Cooperstown, N.Y.
Maybe someone else will be at the telestrator when he holds up his very own "Circle me, Bert" sign for the TV cameras.

Jim Mone, Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The American dream of life getting better for each new generation feels like a myth to many of today's young adults.
After coming of age during a deep recession, most expect to have a harder time buying a house and saving for retirement than their parents did. More than 4 in 10 predict it will be tougher to raise a family and afford the lifestyle they want, according to an Associated Press-Viacom poll of Americans ages 18 to 24.
Only about a fourth expect things to be easier for them than the previous generation — a cherished goal of many hardworking parents.
"I just don't really see myself being able to obtain the kind of money my parents could when they were my age," said Mark McNally, 23, who earned a history degree from the University of Minnesota a year ago and now works part-time in a liquor store.
San Francisco State University nursing student Ashley Yates is confident she'll build a career in health care but expects money to be tighter in her lifetime. "Social Security may not even exist when I'm older," said Yates, 23. "Health insurance is going up. Everything just costs more."
Sounds like a bummer, right? Yet most young adults are shrugging it off. Despite financial disappointments, they overwhelmingly say they're happy with their lives, much more so than older folks in similar surveys.
Youthful optimism — with perhaps a touch of naivete — lives on. A whopping 90 percent expect to find careers that will bring them happiness, if not wealth.
Linka Preus, who's taking a year off her career track to work in an Ithaca, N.Y., bagel bakery, figures every generation has its own struggles, and bad economies eventually improve.
"Even if it never gets better permanently, we'll adjust to whatever it is," said Preus, 22, a linguistics and cognitive science grad from Cornell University who plans to pursue her passion for science in graduate school.
McNally, the history major, says he's enjoying life as a part-time clerk in the Minneapolis suburb of Edina before he gets tied down in a research or analyst job.
"I'll be able to find one in the future, I'm sure of it," McNally said. "I'll find one or go back to school."
High unemployment has left lots of young lives in limbo. Among students who don't plan to go to work right after college, three-fourths say the limited number of open jobs in their field was important to their decision. Riding out the tough times in grad school is a popular choice for those with the means.
But for some without such options, optimism is hard to muster.
Nathan Watkins, out of work in rural Epworth, Ga., has little job experience, no car and no access to public transportation.
"I'm literally stuck and there's nothing I can do about it. At least I feel that way," said Watkins, 23, a high school graduate who lives with his mother and tries to compensate her by doing chores.
He's seeking work of any type. "Honestly, at this point, I wouldn't care. In this economy, you take what you can get."
Young people today are more pessimistic about their economic futures than young adults in a similar poll in April 2007, eight months before the recession began. And most say they cannot afford the things they want or are struggling at least a little to make their money last through each week. About half are dependent on family members for financial support.
Seventy-five percent say the economy is in poor shape, on par with older people surveyed in a recent AP-GfK poll.
And they're not just worried about themselves; 7 out of 10 fret about their parents' finances. About 20 percent saw a parent laid off during the past year and a half, according to the AP-Viacom study, conducted in partnership with Stanford University.
Money troubles are steering the course of young lives. A majority say finances were a key factor in deciding whether to continue their educations past high school and, if they did, which college to attend, and what kind of career to seek.
Lucas Ward couldn't keep up with the tuition in community college, despite working three jobs at once — at a gas station, a hotel and a restaurant in scenic and touristy Hood River, Ore.
With youthful pluck, he found opportunity elsewhere.
Ward fell into a job doing a bit of everything for a small outdoor clothing company, and the business took off. The housing collapse that busted so many baby boomers made prices suddenly affordable, so Ward bought a home. At 23, he's about to invest in a second house and building his own clothing company.
"A lot of stuff in the news is telling everyone that they can't, that the economy is crumbling and there's no room for anyone to do anything," Ward said. "But I'm watching that being disproven every day."
The AP-Viacom telephone survey of 1,104 adults ages 18-24 was conducted Feb. 18-March 6 by GfK Roper Public Affairs & Corporate Communications. The margin of sampling error is plus or minus 3.5 percentage points.
Stanford University's participation in this project was made possible by a grant from The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
AP writer Stacy A. Anderson, AP Polling Director Trevor Tompson, Deputy Director of Polling Jennifer Agiesta and AP News Survey Specialist Dennis Junius contributed to this report.

Assam Rifles to deploy spy unit along Myanmar border
Shillong: Assam Rifles will deploy its
independent intelligence unit along the Myanmar border by May
this year, its Director General Lt Gen KS Yadava said on Sunday.
"The field intelligence unit is already through and its
raising has started. We hope to put it in place by May this
year," he told reporters here.
Lt Gen Yadava said Assam Rifles being the lead
intelligence agency of the Myanmar border will get a major
boost once the intelligence unit is deployed along the Myanmar
"The unit will have around 200 men besides 27 officers
picked from the organization," he said.
He also informed that by the end of this year the process
of raising 26 new battalions will start.
"Every year, we plan to raise 2/3 battalions. Two commando
battalions will also be a part of the raisings," he said.
One of the commando battalion will be deployed in Manipur
and would have special uniform and weaponry and will be "as
good as any other commando force in the country."
"They will be trained by all expert forces in the country.
The battalions will lend a potent force to the North East,"
Yadava said.
Raised as a "militia" by the British in 1835 to protest
their interests in the region, the 60,000-strong paramilitary
force is now deployed in Manipur, Indo-Myanmar border and some
other states of the region for counter-insurgency operations.

I've been working on a tactics interface for Chesscademy for a while and I'd welcome any feedback! :)
looks pretty awesome ;]
Very nice. Trayed about 20 tactics!
Tried it out for a couple minutes, noticed 2 strange things:
a) For some reason I got the same puzzle twice in a row (Seems like 1. e4 c5 2. c3 Nf6 3. d4 Nxe4 4. dxc5 d6 or something strange like that with the point being 5. Qa4 wins)
b) After the first couple of puzzles, the puzzle rating went up each time I solved one, despite being "rated higher" than me at the time. Maybe intended (or a result of being new) but still a bit odd.
Overall I quite like the design however, looks like a nice way to do easy tactics in the same method as chesstempo or such.
The fact that it's free and available is incredible! I enjoyed it as a guest, ...not logged in or registered. It was truly fun and quite challenging! Thank you and well done!
nice job NM Matetricks ...
Keep it UP!
I've been on Chesscademy for a few weeks now and the trainer sometimes gets buggy- it will often repeat tactics and occasionally won't count points and have trouble loading.
First time I've heard of it. Seems good so far.

Florida is apparently not as corrupt as it once was, and now it just might be getting even less so after Gov. Rick Scott signed the Government Ethics bill on Friday.
The bill -- SB 846 -- is designed to make incremental changes and improvements to Florida's ethics laws, including annual ethics training for elected city officials.
Overall, it's a good start to tackling what has been a problem for the state for some time and a way to get more transparency from elected officials throughout the state.

In 2012, watchdog group Integrity Florida put together a study that found that a whopping 1,762 of Florida's public officials had been convicted of public corruption since 1976.
The group also found that the state had 781 public corruption convictions between 2000 and 2010 -- making Florida number one overall in the U.S. during that time.
To fight the ethics problem, House Speaker Will Weatherford and Senate President Don Gaetz proposed a joint House and Senate five-point agenda for the state that included government transparency. Among them was Gaetz's Work Plan Florida, which states that the Legislature would work to improve Florida's ethics laws.
Back in April, Integrity Florida joined forces in an ethics-busting coalition with the First Amendment Foundation, Common Cause Florida, and Citizens Awareness Foundation to make sure Gaetz and the Legislature kept their promise of pushing through some kind of ethics reform bill.
"The coalition coming together to rally behind these open government bills," Dan Krassner, cofounder and executive director of Integrity Florida, told New Times. "It's our hope that lawmakers will deliver on their transparency, and we're optimistic that Speaker Weatherford will deliver with his commitment."
In May, SB 846 was passed the Florida Senate by a vote of 38-0. The Florida House of Representatives also approved the measure unanimously, 118-0.
On Friday, Scott made it official.
Among the improvements, the Florida Commission in Ethics can independently automatically start investigating an official if that official fails to disclose a financial report. The law will also require lobbyist disclosure at Florida's water management districts.
Krassner and Integrity Florida released a statement applauding the work of the Legislature and Gov. Scott.
"It's encouraging that for the second year in a row, the governor and legislature have advanced anti-corruption measures aimed at improving public trust in government," says Krassner. "While more work will be needed in the future to take on corruption, state lawmakers are moving in the right direction."
