Water Softener Regeneration Cycle Duration
Water softener regeneration cycle time period:
What is the normal duration or length of a water softener regeneration cycle? What determines the length of the softener regen cycle? Can the regen cycle duration be adjusted? How to diagnose & fix problems with a water softner that runs too long or not long enough.
Diagnose & Fix Water Softener Problems: this article series describes procedures for diagnosing and repairing water softener or water conditioner problems including water conditioner control settings and adjustment or repair, brine tank and brine tank float cleaning and repair, and the proper amount of water softening or conditioning that is needed.

Is it normal for brine flush to be an hour long ? - D.C.
DC it could be an hour - as long as it stops you're ok. The length of the regen cycle is controlled by the timer/control on your equipment and will vary by water conditioner size and salt dose. It would not be unusual for the total regen cycle to take more than an hour, comprised of these steps:
Typical Water Conditioner Regeneration Cycle Time Components
|Backwash cycle - wash out the brine tank
|14 minutes
|Water Softener regen cycle - brine is pumped slowly through the water conditioner tank including a "slow rinse"
|52 minutes
|Brine tank refill - water is pumped into the brine tank to dissolve salt to be available as salty water for the next regen cycle
|10 minutes
|Total Water Conditioner Regen Cycle Time (sum of above)
|76 minutes
|Fast rinse/refill cycle on a water conditioner
|6 minutes
My water softener continues to run when no water is being drawn from anywhere in the house. Why is this happening? - Joe Hernandez, Brighten MI
The table below lists common causes & cures for a water softener that cycles continuously or that keeps draining continuously.
Causes of Long Water Softener Run or Regeneration Cycles or Continuous Water Softener Draining
|Water Softener "Stuck On" Problem
|Water Softener Problem Cause
|Water Softener Repair Procedure
|Water softener control cycles continuously
|Broken or shorted water softener control switch or timer
If the water softener timer or control switch is defective it can cause the softener to remain "stuck" in regeneration mode, causing the water sofener to cycle continuously.
Replace the timer, switch, or if necessary replace the entire water sofener control head.
|Water softener drains continuously
|Water softener control valve not programmed correctly
|Check Timer Program and Positioning of Control.
Replace Power Head Assembly if not Positioning Properly.
|Water softener control valve clogged by debris
|Remove the water softener power head assembly and inspect the bore. Remove foreign material and check the control in various regeneration positions.
|Water softener valve internal leak
|Replace the seals and piston assembly in the softener control head.
|Water softener regeneration cycle inadequate
|Various causes in the article cited at right
|Insufficient salt dose or brine tank problems can cause the water softener regen cycle to be too short or can cause the softener to fail to produce enough soft water.

Stuck water softener runs continuously: Emergency Steps:
If the water softener actually seems to "run" or to be "stuck" in regeneration mode, running continuously, then its operating control needs to be repaired or replaced. Don't leave the softener running forever - doing so wastes water and if your home is connected to a private septic system it will also flood and damage the drainfield.
In an emergency if the water softener is "stuck" running water continuously I'd just unplug it and also perhaps set the control to bypass while (see BYPASS VALVE) waiting for a water treatment company to perform the needed control repair.
Adapted from a review of multiple water softener installation and repair manuals. See REFERENCES in this and other water softener repair articles at InspectApedia's More Reading section.
What you describe might be normal if the water softener runs when no water is being used in the house but later stops itself. The water softener itself does not deliver water to your home. That is done by the water pump or incoming water supply. So when a water softener "runs" it is in its regeneration or "backwash" cycle during which the softener pumps water into a salt tank to make brine, then flushes the brine backwards through the water treatment tank, then flushes the brine out of the treatment tank.
Because during the regeneration cycle the water softener is on "bypass", any household water used by occupants during that interval is not treated or softened during the regeneration cycle. Therefore we usually set the water softener timer to process its regeneration cycle in the middle of the night - when no one is using water. That may be what you are hearing.
See HOW WATER SOFTENERS / CONDITIONERS WORK for details about how water softeners work.
See SOFTENER ADJUSTMENT & CONTROLS for advice on how to set the water softener timer and salt dose.
Can someone explain why, during a regeneration cycle, the time for drawing brine from tank is five times longer than refilling water into tank. That part of the cycle is drawing all of the water from tank and continues that cycle long after the brine tank is empty.
This system was installed and setup by a water softener company who I'm assuming made all necessary tests. My new job is to maintain this system and insure proper operation. I had a stuck float in the brine tank which was repaired, than I forced a regeneration cycle and noticed the brine tank and cycle setup. - Bob
Bob, indeed it sounds as if the water softener control or perhaps the brine tank fill control is not working properly. Or maybe not.
Some water softeners do not pump water into the brine tank until the start of a regen cycle. In that case once brine has been drawn out of the tank you won't see water pumped back into the salt tank until the next regen cycle.
The water softener regeneration takes place by cycling salty water backwards through the treatment tank and out into a disposal drain, followed by some wash-out of brine from the treatment tank so that the household water is not full of salt.
So the regeneration cycle would be expected to run for the sum of the brine passage plus the flush out water passage - longer than just the time to remove the brine-water from the salt tank.
But if the cycle is abnormally long compared to the exhaustion of the brine tank liquid, another possibility is the following: the softener is set to use a particular quantity of salt (in the form of brine water) based on water hardness and quantity used.
But if the float in the brine tank prevented sufficient water from entering the tank at the start of the regen cycle, then the softener control could find itself blithely pumping along, having exhausted the undersized salt dose but having no way to know that (the brine float is a mechanical device that has most often no direct communication with the actual electrically powered softener control).
So I'd make a double check that the un-stuck float in the brine tank is properly set in its height and free in its movement.

Water overflows - citation, 8/31/11
Water is flowing out of the top of my water softener salt tank. Can you tell me what's wrong and how to fix it ? - anon.
Sure. We discuss this problem in the article above at SOFTENER REGENERATION CYCLE DURATION - your system overflowing may be due to
I moved into a new house 3 months ago to find the softener to be "out of service" meaning my inlet outlet valves to softener were closed and bypass open. When I lined softener up I noticed that water was running out of my backwash line this continued for 15-20 min. It was not in a regeneration cycle? Any answers would be great thanks - Josh 10/5/12
Josh, I'm guessing you bumped an extra regen cycle switch on the control; But it's just a guess. If the system was put out of service and on bypass it might be because the system was stuck in regeneration mode and needs cleaning or repair.
water softner i unplugged the unit and it still runs water through it is there is there something i can do to shut off water from going through the system until i can get someone to look at it - Robert Clem 8/1/12
Put the water softener on bypass. (BYPASS VALVE)
Also see DIAGNOSE SOFTENER BACKUP / FLOODING.
I have a Culligan 50 series softener that is continually draining water. There is a plastic tube out the top that goes direct to the main house drain and recently we noticed there is a steady stream coming from it.
I tried to put in by pass and can't move the spool. - NH 8/8/12
I'd need to see a photo to be sure we are talking about the same component but it sounds as if you are describing a leak at the water / brine line between the brine tank and the water softener.
That line might leak either when the system is pumping water into the brine tank to make brine, or when the system is in regeneration cycle and is pumping salty water back through the water conditioner. Take a close look to see exactly what's leaking and replace those parts - it should be an inexpensive "screw-together" repair.
See DIAGNOSE SOFTENER BACKUP / FLOODING for diagnostic & repair procedures for this problem.
If we have not kept salt in our tank, would the softener recycle more often than it should? The reason for my question is I got a call from the city about our culinary water consumption and it is extremely higher than normal which indicates either a leak in our home such as a toilet, or the water softener is recycling too often. How do I know how many times the softener is recycling? - Jamie 6/18/12
No, if you have a basic softener that just runs the regen cycle by a timer. That sort does not know how salty the regen solution is.
Yes, if your softener is a more advanced model that monitors water hardness. that type would see that the water remains too hard and keep running regen cycles fruitlessly.
we haven't used our culligan softner since we moved in 1999. when i plug the unit in it constantly discharges water down the main waste. is this normal? - Sal 6/21/12
Sal, it sounds as if your water softener is stuck in regen-cycle.
Try cleaning it (see SOFTENER CLEANING & SANITIZING),
then re-set the controls (see SOFTENER ADJUSTMENT & CONTROLS) then try a manual backwash cycle.
If the system keeps running for hours, then the water the water softener control needs repair or replacement.
Above we discussed the duration of water softener regeneration cycles: how long the equipment should run when executing a regeneration cycle.
Frequency of water softner regeneration is not the same question as duration of the regeneration cycle.
See the article above on this page: WATER SOFTENER REGENERATION CYCLE DURATION for a discussion of abnormally-long water softener regeneration cycle time duration.
See WATER SOFTENER REGENERATION CYCLE FREQUENCY for details about how to set the water softener salt dose, regeneration frequency and on some models, softener regeneration time.

I have a Waterboss 900 that's stuck in regenerate mode. How do I remove valves to check for obstruction?
This question was originally posted at DIAGNOSE WATER SOFTENER PROBLEMS
On a WaterBoss 900 if the unit stays in "regeneration" mode it may or may not be an obstruction.
Common causes of being stuck in regen include
1. The computer control is not properly attached. Check this FIRST. Be sure that the computer control is pushed all the way up onto the drive end cap.
2. Here you may be right: a foreign object (crud) may be stuck in the valve body. Look at the parts explosion and see my caveats below when disassembling to check or clean the valve.
3. Your Water Boss could have a broken valve assembly. If the motor runs and the valve doesn't turn this is probably the problem so I'd look for this condition before disassembling the valve.
If you don't already have an owners and installation manual for your Water Boss water softener, contact the company at the location I give below to obtain that document. That will give you a parts explosion and repair procedures specific to that machine.
Meanwhile I'd put the system on bypass and turn it off so you stop wasting water and perhaps flooding a septic system.
Watch out: I would NOT disassemble the unit one bit before having repair parts kit in hand. Going to all that trouble and finding that you've nicked or damaged an O-ring can leave you shut down while you have to wait for such parts, and chances are you need them anyway.

My softener stopped softening the water 2 months ago. The unit is about 18 years old. I replaced the resin, cleaned the valve head, poured 3 gallons not water into the brine tank with iron out and manually regenerated many times. The water gets soft for a few days but then isn't. It's using salt normally, the valve timer is working but still won't keep the water soft. The only thing I haven't done is disassemble and clean the brine tank. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Check the float assembly to assure it's not stuck and check the salt dose setting against the measured hardness of the incoming water supply;
Reader follow-up:
Thanks Dan, the float assembly looked fine. I soaked the basket in Ironout just in case and blew it out, seems clear. The salt setting was at 3 lbs which seems rather low so I bumped it up to 13 lbs. The last water test was pH 5.8 / Iron 3.0ppm / Hardness 20 grains per gallon. What setting do you recommend for that iron level? Again, your help is really appreciated.
The separate article SOFTENER ADJUSTMENT & CONTROLS discusses salt dose and regen cycle settings - which you can look at but you'll want to set your particular softner salt dose and regen cycle frequency per the instructions for your particular brand and model to get it just right.
I don't know about softener setting for iron level - which is a secondary feature to softener settings for hardness; I'd be glad to do some research but let's start with the instructions for your unit. What is the brand and model? (And you have the instructions for it?}

How much water should be in the brine tank after a full regeneration? I'm starting to wonder if the air check ball is stuck or for some reason, the correct amount of brine water is not being created.
Indeed there are usually a few inches in the bottom of the brine tank, but in normal conditions you won't see it: the brine solution will be covered by salt.
- check that the float assembly travels freely and is not stuck - most brine tanks control water entry and exit quantity by a float operated switch.
- poke at the salt in the tank; salt can form a crust that makes it look as if there's plenty of salt in the tank while actually there may be nothing but hollow space below the crust.
There is about 3-4" of water but the float sits about 5-6" above the water line while in service mode. Does the water go up that high during regeneration? Doesn't seem like it does at all. Further to that, I opened the air check where the brine tank hose attached expecting to find a ball but there wasn't one. I understand that the all floats when water is in there and close up the line when the brine water runs out. But there was no ball. Also, my air check looks different than the ones I see pictured, it's flatter than taller. I can send a pic if that's possible. Thanks again, you are very helpful, I appreciate it,
Bruce, I'm not sure, not even knowing what softener you have, but generally the float controls the quantity of water that enters the brine tank - as you probably see, water enters, causes the float to rise until it shuts off the incoming water; time is given to dissolve salt; then salty water is pumped back out of the brine tank and through the softener to do the regen.
If you want to experiment, with no salt in the tank, so you can see what's going on, use the softener controls to request an extra or manual regen cycle. Watch the brine tank. You should see water enter, the float rise, the float stops rising and presses against a mechanical switch that stops water entry. (The float level is adjustable on many softeners and should be set per the manual).
As the cycle continues you should see the salty water pumped back out of the unit and the water level drop.
Even before that observation it should be possible to GENTLY lift the float rod and let it drop back into position. The float should move freely up and down. Sometimes floats get stuck as salt cakes or falls into the tube protecting the float assembly.

Thanks, I understand exactly what you wrote. The valve is an Autotrol 255/440 from 1996. Right now, I've the water soft but not sure how long it will last. It's soft because 2 days ago I add 3 gal hot water to the brine tank and did a manual regen. I'm wondering if enough water is getting into the brine tank. Is the float valve itself subject to failure commonly? The float moved the valve freely up and down but that doesn't mean the valve is opening fully, right? Maybe I should watch a full cycle to see if the water rises during the brine creation cycle. That air check w/o a ball also is bothering me since everything I read on the 255 says there should be a plastic ball in there. Also, I read that air leaks could impact brine flow.
Although I'm not the most expert on water softeners I've messed with them a bit and inspected quite a few. It is common for the brine tank float to get stuck or fail to operate properly. Some folks go on for years with the system not working, never realizing a thing until their water pipes clog with minerals that the softener was not removing because it was not doing a thing.
I haven't come across the air leak problem but that makes some sense, though I'd like to hear more specifics about where the air leaks occur; I suspect that an air leak in the brine line between brine tank and softener might let air rather than brine pass back to the softener, but I'd think during the brine tank fill cycle you'd see water leaks at the same place. The manual for your water softener says an air leak in the brine line can cause a brine tank overflow.
I'd suggest removing all the salt (you've done that) then starting a manual regen cycle and then stand there and with the lid off the brine tank watch what it does. You should see water enter, the float rise, the float stop the water entry, then the water flow should reverse and flow back through the softener.
(If you'd photograph the whole sequence and email me those that'd be a useful addition to our diagnostic routines online.)
Take a look at the diagnostics page in the manual - I'll quote some key passages:
Continuing with Autotrol w55/440 Water softener diagnostics, here are things to watch for during the regen cycle:
Control will not draw brine: possible causes-
- low water pressure
- restricted drain line
- injector plugged or defective
- Valve 2 disc and/or 3 not closed (see parts diagram)
- Air check valve prematurely closed (there's that air check valve again)
Also interesting is a system that actually takes or uses less salt than the setting on the salt dose dial (I suspect this is a good candidate for your complaint as you say the softener gives soft water after a regen cycle but just for 2 days):
The Dx says look for foreign matter inside the controller - debris causes incorrect flow rates.
You should see this in the quantity of water pumped in and out of the brine tank (it'd be reduced)
Finally, some general Dx for "Run out of Soft Water Between Regen Cycles"
- improper regen (which we've been discussing)
- incorrect salt dose setting
- incorrect hardness or capacity setting
- water hardness has increased (in the incoming water supply)
- Restricted meter turbine rotation due to foreign matter in the meter (see parts diagram)
Given the age of your water softener I'd be alert for the debris-related diagnostics in the company's list.
If you don't have the manual on hand contact me by email and I can send you a copy.
Reader follow-up:
That list is very helpful. I decided to shock the well again today (2nd time in a month) because I still believe it's at the heart of my problems. I'm clogging up a whole house filter once every 7-10 days now. Used to be every 2 months. It's never been a good well and I'm thinking it got worse and the softener simply can't deal with the high iron content, I'm flushing the chlorine out as I type, the hose has been running for well over 1 hour and the water is still very brown.
Hopefully it starts running clear soon. If I can't improve that part and go at least a couple months before a filter change, I think a new well or at least well company inspection is next.
If the water filter clogs in just a few days I'm doubtful that shocking the well is going to do much for it - you'll need to
- find and (ick) fix a leaky cracked damaged well casing or well piping
- install a larger capacity water filter
Reader Jim added:
Look for an air leak at the check valve or brine tank line; possibly an air leak at the backwash control,
Reader follow-up:
Yeah Dan, I think you're on the right track there unfortunately but I'll give it a couple days.
Thanks , I'll look for the leak, still not sure why there is no ball in the air check. Thought that was required for it to work.

We have a tank in our basement that we were told was a salt system. I am confused because it has no brine tank. It is tall and thin with a control box on top. We have lived here 6 months. Finite was the first time I hand heard it "regenerate". It was running for about 20 minutes. My husband turned it off and bypassed it. We don't have a clue about it. Do they all have brine tanks or do some have just a pressure tank??
Your system may not have a separate water brine tank if the unit is an exchange type system:
Some water conditioners use an "exchange tank" design: the resin is pre-charged with salt or other chemicals and is inside a tank taht is exchanged periodically, typically monthly by a water treatment service company.

resin tank full of water and motor runs all time
Anon: I think you mean the salt or brine tank is full of water - the resin is inside the water softener - you can't normally see it.
It sounds as if your water softner control is stuck; try unplugging the unit; if it can't be reset manually the control may need repair or replacement.

I have a rainsoft whole house water system that is showing signs of foamy water. Please let me know what problem can cause the system to make the water foamy?
I'm not sure Lloyd; maybe mis-adjustment, over-softening; have you tried cleaning the brine tank and checking the water softener settings against the actual measured hardness of incoming water?
(Mar 10, 2014) Dan said:
I just had the o rings on my water softener replaced due to leaking, and the system cycles properly. However, after the last 2 cycles, the first water of the morning is distinctly briny, which goes away after using water, say doing a few loads of laundry. This has never happened in 15 years of service. Any suggestions? Thanks.
Check the salt dose - it may be set too high.
YOu can also check the actual water hardness to be sure you've properly set the water softener re-gen frequency and salt dose.

Recently I've been experiencing very foamy and salty tasting water from the cold water faucets in the mornings. I have to run the faucets for several minutes to clear. I have RainSoft about 30 years old. Never maintained except to replace salt.
John, perhaps you need to empty and clean the brine tank, then check that the tank float is moving freely, then run the softener through an extra regen cycle.

my water softener won't stop beeping. And the screen reads " SENDING HELP "
Well that's one I've not heard before. "Sending help"? You didn't mention the brand and model - which would let us (or you) check the owners' manual.
For example Culligan Gold water softeners include a beeper that can be turned on and off and indicates button activity as well as an "alarm" mode.
Your unit needs repair or service.
YOu might try "tapping" on the control motor to see if you can get it going again for a time but I'm not optimistic that even that free-up would be a lasting repair. The motor is accessible by removing the front plastic cover on some water conditioners.
On Rain Soft water softeners you may be able to re-set the alarm. If you have that brand or most others you can obtain a manual from the company's website, and we also have some on file.

Stuart start by checking the control settings. Then try a manual regen cycle and watch what happens. Is the clock reading ticking or moving? I suspect a debris clogged control, check valve, or possibly a salt-stuck brine float.

This sounds as if the water softener is sending debris from the brine tank OR actual resin from the softener out with the house water supply. You could try emptying and sanitizing the brine tank (articles here describe how to do that). But I suspect it's a resin problem - which means it's time to call your local water conditioner company to take a look at the equipment. I'll do some further checking and comment further as well.

The stock price for Emmis Communications is holding steady ahead of the adjourned shareholders meeting scheduled to reconvene Friday evening. There's been no announcement of any settlement with the preferred shareholders, but also no postponement.At noon Emmis Class A common stock was trading at $2.07, up a penny from Thursday's close, but still well below the $2.40 that founder and CEO Jeff Smulyan has offered to pay to take the company private. As previously reported, the overwhelming majority of Class A shares had been tendered for the offer now scheduled to expire at 5:00 pm ET Friday, having been extended from Tuesday.But that tender for the Class A shares can't go to closing unless Smulyan has tied up the legal niceties to take the company private. Holders of more than a third of the company's preferred shares have vowed to vote against those legal changes unless they get a better deal. So, Smulyan either has to get them onboard or figure out a way to go forward without having the preferred holders vote. A statement issued this week said he was looking at the possibility of leaving the preferred stock in place as the company goes private. The problem, though, appears to be that you would have preferred shares that are convertible into a common stock that no longer exists. How would that be resolved?
2.07 is not that far from 2.40, 15% or so. If the deal gets done, there is a 15% gain, if not, the downside unknown but probably much larger than 15%. This stock is so thinly traded that if one is not careful, they could get hurt badly. Probably going to see some selling into the close.
No kidding, hope we are having our lobster dinner this weekend instead of eating carp
and most importantly, I should have noted that if the deal gets done the buyout is 2.40, but that could take time, and during that time you could see a drop and holders grow impatient and fearful that it may fall through.

Based mostly on single pigment colors, this small line of opaque watercolor gouache is a professional's dream. Every color is dense, rich, and highly pigmented. No fillers, opacifiers, or adulterants alter the nature of the colors.
In the 18th and 19th centuries, French artists like Boucher, Watteau, and Chardin often worked in gouache, while the English favored transparent watercolor. Now M. Graham has bridged two cultures with a new line of gouache that is based on the same pigments as its watercolor formulas. The opaque matte finish can stand alone, or be combined with transparent watercolor to create permanent works of art.
In addition to gum arabic, which is used as a binder in all other professional gouaches, M. Graham adds pure natural honey. Honey prevents cracking and increases flow and moistness.
Basic Set of 5
An excellent starter palette, this set contains five 15 ml colors including Azo Yellow, Naphthol Red, Cobalt Blue, Ivory Black, and Titanium White.
Color Chart Note — Use this color chart as an approximation of the real color. If exact color matching is necessary, use actual samples of the materials.

Love them
By Doodads
from Sacramento, CA
I've recently converted from soft pastel to goauche painting and am so thrilled to find an opaque re-wettable medium that can created detailed work. After researching a variety of brands and weighing costs, M Graham turned out to be the most suitable because of its honey humectant, variety of artist's rather than designers' gouache, and reasonable price range. Dick Blick has the least expensive price that I found online.

Outstanding color, no chalk
By simplify
from San Diego
I've tried other gouache brands, except Schminke, and this one is the absolute best I've tried. The color intensity and pigment load are incredible, and when they dry, the richness remains. No chalky after-effects. The darkest darks remain velvety and intense. The thing I love most about this brand compared to others, is how well it re-wets in half pans. I paint plein air, and I carry a sketchbox everywhere with half pans that I filled with M. Graham gouache. It re-wets and functions beautifully, no scrubbing necessary to load the brush and lay on gorgeous color. Other brands, regardless of cost, won't perform like this. I'm told that Schminke is equally good at rewetting, but why pay twice the cost?

Good Quality but some colors don't mix w
By Jenny
from Irvine, CA
I bought this gouache and am currently using them for 2D/3D design class. Most of the colors are fanatic on their own, but the cadmium yellow, cadmium red, and naphthol red do not seem to mix well with other colors. The yellow makes a sort of muddied green when mixed with blue and they are much darker than the primary green, at least two shades darker, and you can't get a nice violet when you mix the reds with the blues, they turn out more brownish violet. Our first project was to make a color wheel, most of the class had a lot of difficulty making green, and yellow green. Violet, red violet and red did not come out well either.However, the secondary orange is cadmium orange straight out of the tube. (which is wonderful less mixing for everyone!) The blue, blue green and blue violets came out great as well, so it seems to be that only the reds and the yellow had something weird about it with mixing.Windsor & Newton Designer Gouache seem better suited for your primary color mixing needs. I still like this product though and they are of course a little bit more affordable than the Windsor Newton. So you get what you pay for I guess. The paint seems a little thinner and stickier at times? Maybe because of the honey in the formula? Anyways, good product if you don't mind a little muddied colors when mixing.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — Dallas Cowboys cornerback Terence Newman and tight end Martellus Bennett were listed as inactive, as expected, for the season opener against the New York Jets.
Newman injured his groin early in training camp, while Bennett will miss the game Sunday night with an ankle injury. Cowboys cornerback Mike Jenkins (knee) and rookie right tackle Tyron Smith (knee) are both active after being listed as questionable Friday.
Jets defensive lineman Kenrick Ellis, the team's third-round draft pick, was among New York's inactives. Former Cowboys safety Andrew Sendejo, recently claimed off waivers, was also inactive for the Jets.

News comes following a panel at the New York Comic-Con over the weekend, where producer Alex Jones also revealed that Mundus, the antagonist from the original Devil May Cry, will be making an appearance in the tile.
Elsewhere, Jones made it clear that Vergil won't be playable out of the box, though didn't explicitly rule out the possibility of him being DLC.
DmC: Devil May Cry is scheduled for release on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in January 2013.

Summer may be in full swing right now, but fall classes are set to get underway next month at Meridian Community College.
MCC officials were on hand Tuesday to make sure incoming freshman students have what they need for a successful school year.
Orientation is one way students get a jump-start. They get their schedules, have questions answered, as well as making sure they can find their way around campus.
"I am planning on majoring in Construction Trade and Industrial Maintenance," said freshman Mykel Sullivan. "I have to continue my education as much as I can."
"It's an important thing for new students coming into school to get your schedules, their classes together so you know were everything is," said Rachel Harris, student volunteer.
Fall classes will begin August 17.

Hi, I'm new to the forum and thought this place would be best to post my bike project- if not, administrators feel free to move it.
After my Trek was stolen two years ago, I didn't buy a bicycle- until now. I can't afford gas, even on my (70mpg) motorcycle so I needed a cheapo bike to use as an all-rounder. So be forewarned there is some cheap stuff being thrown around here, as well a very minor homebrew modding- please, don't harp to much on it. I know it's not a "proper" or "quality" bike, and that some compromises must be made, but when I finish it fully-equipped under $70, that's what I can do.
Okay, so here is the plan: A bike that can serve as a minor to medium trail bike, be fairly durable, do well in all weathers and times of day or night, and be used as a commuter.
That means-
Bike $15 (purchased)
Lights, ebay $8
Mirror, walmart $6
Tool bag, ebay $10
Tools (screwdriver, allen multi tool, adjustable wrench) purchased
Cycle computer- $3 ebay
Very cheap, even cheaper than a Mallwart bike if it stays on budget.
Problem number one:
Chainrings. (Note: it's a one-piece crank). The crank only has two chainrings and they aren't that different from each other (it looks at a glance like a 50/46 or maybe a 46/42). I need a "granny gear" or hillclimb gear. I have a spare very low sprocket for a one-piece crank, my question is will an old one-piece crank be able to use an extra sprocket (I would basically be adding the low sprocket right behind the current chainrings and then resecuring everything) if it was spaced correctly and the proper adjustments were made to the front derailer? I'll be trying it anyway tommorow but just wondering if anybody has even done it before.

GOP censored Scott response to Thrasher
Florida Republican Chairman John Thrasher sent a message to party faithful titled "Rick Scott" on Sunday night, blasting him (again) for invoking the Jim Greer scandal in the campaign. (See his message below.)
Scott's camp sought to respond, but the party refused to send the message, which says "denying the facts to paint a better picture of Bill McCollum is the wrong way to do it." (Read the whole thing here.)
Party spokeswoman Katie Betta explained the party routinely sends campaign emails to its list. But it also reserves the right to reject those "that contain personal or otherwise inappropriate attacks towards other Republicans." As for the email from Thrasher, which contained some choice words, Betta said the chairman can send what he wants.

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - Four members of the 2014 Nittany Lion women's lacrosse team - Tatum Coffey (Toms River, N.J.), Evan Foulsham (Madison, N.J), Lauren Purvis (Maple Glen, Pa.), Whitney Reddig (Lititz, Pa.) - were named to the Intercollegiate Women's Lacrosse Coaches Association Academic Honor Roll, the organization announced.
The Penn State contingent was among 238 student-athletes recognized for their academic excellence. To be eligible for the honor roll, student-athletes must have achieved at least junior status academically and earned a cumulative grade-point average of at least 3.5. As a team, the Nittany Lions achieved IWLCA Academic Honor Squad status after garnering a team grade-point average of at least 3.0.
A broadcast journalism major, Coffey started all 18 games during her junior season and ranked fourth on the team with 39 points (25g, 14a). The Toms River, New Jersey, native, who earned Capital One Academic All-America® honors in 2013, also collected 18 ground balls, 16 draw controls and eight caused turnovers.
Foulsham, who majored in recreation, park and tourism management, appeared in all 18 games in 2014. The defender gathered 22 ground balls, 12 caused turnovers and seven draw controls during her senior season.
A kinesiology major, Purvis garnered American Lacrosse Conference Defensive Player of the Year honors after leading the conference in caused turnovers per game. The Maple Glen native finished her senior season with 29 caused turnovers, 27 ground balls and eight draw controls.
In 2014, Reddig appeared in six games and totaled one ground ball for the Nittany Lions. The rehabilitation and human services major was also a member of the Penn State field hockey squad, along with Purvis, during her time in Happy Valley.
During the 2014 season, the Nittany Lions recorded their fifth straight 10-win season and advanced to the NCAA tournament in three straight seasons for the first time since 1995-97. With the additions of Maryland and Rutgers to the Big Ten, the league will sponsor women's lacrosse for the first time in 2015. Penn State will open Big Ten play with a trip to Rutgers the weekend of March 26.

- Publisher's Summary
- Elegant data and ideas deserve elegant expression, argues Helen Sword in this lively guide to academic writing. For scholars frustrated with disciplinary conventions, and for specialists who want to write for a larger audience but are unsure where to begin, here are imaginative, practical, witty pointers that show how to make articles and books a pleasure to read - and to write. Dispelling the myth that you cannot get published without writing wordy, impersonal prose, Sword shows how much journal editors and readers welcome work that avoids excessive jargon and abstraction. Sword's analysis of more than a thousand peer-reviewed articles across a wide range of fields documents a startling gap between how academics typically describe good writing and the turgid prose they regularly produce. "Stylish Academic Writing" showcases a range of scholars from the sciences, humanities, and social sciences who write with vividness and panache. Individual chapters take up specific elements of style, such as titles and headings, chapter openings, and structure, and close with examples of transferable techniques that any writer can master.

DEBKAfile Exclusive Report June 28, 2003
To subscribe to DEBKA-Net-Weekly click HERE.
For the Palestinians to begin upholding their June 4 Aqaba summit pledges, another strong shove was needed from Washington. It was administered this week in a telephone call from US secretary of state Colin Powell to Palestinian internal security minister Mohamed Dahlan. debkafile's Washington sources report Powell as saying in effect: The Hamas everyone is talking about is made up of no more than 500 to 1,000 armed men. If Dahlan can't get them under control and stop their terrorist activity, "someone else" will take over and finish them off one by one.
A demonstration quickly followed. Early Friday, June 27, a team of the Israeli naval commando Unit 13 raided a Hamas fastness in the southern Gaza Strip, killing three terrorists and capturing another three. The Israeli side lost one fighter, Staff Sgt. Erez Ashkenazi, 21, from Kibbutz Reshafim.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report June 24, 2003
The Israeli-Palestinian peace front remains stalled in defiance of the US secretary of state Colin Powell's generous assertion of progress towards an Israeli-Palestinian accord for the transfer of security responsibility on the Gaza Strip. He also commended the Palestinian Authority for its hard work to bring into place a cessation of violence on the part of Palestinian terrorist groups. That was on the morning of Monday, June 23. Monday evening, Hamas leaders took back the promise they gave the world media Sunday to say where they stood on a truce within 24 hours. Again, they upped demands. And again, it was said, an answer would be forthcoming tomorrow... maybe. Monday afternoon, a meeting at the Israel-Gaza Strip Erez checkpoint between Israel's military commander of the West Bank and Gaza Strip Lt. Major Amos Gilead and Palestinian internal security minister, Mohamed Dahlan, failed to reduce differences. There might be progress... tomorrow. Gilad said after the meeting: "As long as Arafat pulls their strings, we'll get exactly nowhere."
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report June 17, 2003
Very shortly, Israelis will wake up to find their military forces pulling out of the northern Gaza Strip and Bethlehem and handing over the war on terror originating in those regions to Palestinian prime minister Abu Mazen and his internal security minister Mohamed Dahlan. The confusion Monday, June 16, over whether or not the Egyptian delegation in Gaza City had managed to persuade Hamas, Fatah, Jihad Islami and other rejectionist terrorist groups to accept a ceasefire arose from the decision to reverse the order of events. First the handover of the two territories to the Palestinian Authority; then a ceasefire transacted by the radical groups with the Palestinian Authority - not with Israel through Egypt and the United States.
The key to the truce was provided by the man in the picture. His name is Yousef Qaradawi.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report June 12, 2003
As the 20-year old human bomb from Hebron, Abdel Muttu Shabana, tore into the packed Jerusalem 14A bus in rush hour traffic opposite the city's open air market - killing 16 Israelis and injuring more than one 100 - an Egyptian delegation representing the US, Israeli and Palestinian governments sat down opposite a Hamas delegation in Gaza City. The Egyptians were there to solicit the hard-line Islamic terror group's consent to a ceasefire - and they were having a hard time.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report June 8, 2003
mg class="picture" src="/dynmedia/pictures/Thumb.jpg" align="right" border="0">Leading Palestinian factions are marking the Aqaba summit period as open season for terror. Sunday morning, June 8, the three dominant groups, Fatah - with suicide arm al Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades, Hamas and Jihad Islami, for the first time publicly admitted acting in unison to murder four Israelis and injure four at the Erez checkpoint between the Gaza Strip and Israel. Each named the gunman it had sent for the strike. All three were shot dead in the ensuing gun battle. The spot chosen for the attack - the Gaza-Israeli checkpoint through which ten thousand Gazans were allowed to go back to jobs in Israel as a pre-Aqaba summit gesture by Israel - signaled their rejection of any but violent Palestinian interchanges with the Jewish state and their defiance of efforts by Abu Mazen and Dahlan to carry out understandings reached under the aegis of the US president, George W. Bush.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report June 4, 2003
Both prime ministers put their best feet forward and pronounced the words that President George W. Bush wanted to hear at the end of their 90-minute summit in the idyllic Red Sea resort of Aqaba on Wednesday, June 4. What will happen to all those noble sentiments after the US president is gone from the Middle East? The most striking speech came from Mahmoud Abbas who solemnly declared that the Palestinian-Israeli dispute has no military solution. "We oppose terror and violent actions as contrary to our religion and inconsistent with the state we aspire to. The armed intifada must end and we must resort to peaceful means to achieve our goals.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report June 2, 2003
debkafile reports from its intelligence sources that Abu Mazen and Dahlan worked hard to concoct some sort of ceasefire in time for the Aqaba summit - not by going to the heads of the Palestinian terror groups, but straight to the chiefs of local terror squads. It was not as difficult as they pretended to the Americans and the Israelis. As an Israeli security source told debkafile's sources, Dahlan and his people had more than a passing acquaintance with each and every one of these squad chiefs, enough to knock on their doors and even reach them in their hideouts.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report May 26, 2003
The Israeli government's narrow endorsement of the Middle East road map on Sunday May 25 - and acceptance of a Palestinian state at the end of the road - far from removing the obstacles to peacemaking, accentuates the difficulties facing the next stages. debkafile's US and Israeli security sources report increasing signs that Yasser Arafat is now seriously gunning for the new Palestinian prime minister Mahmoud Abbas. He will do anything to abort the summit expected to take place in early June with President George W. Bush and Israeli prime minister Ariel Sharon. Arafat cannot abide the notion of any top-level conference going forward without him.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report May 19, 2003
The White House has said it hopes the postponed visit by Israeli prime minister Ariel Sharon in response to the latest spiral of Palestinian terror will take place within days. President George W. Bush clearly wants to see Sharon as soon as possible. EBKAfile's Washington and Jerusalem sources explain Israel's postponement and US urgency by a certain conflict of immediate goals: Bush is in trouble with his global war on terror following al Qaeda's deadly strikes in Riyadh and Casablanca. He thinks Sharon's visit to Washington can help allay some of the pressure on him. However, Sharon is also in trouble with his counter-terror war against Yasser Arafat and prefers to stay at home.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report May 12, 2003
As he demonstrated during US secretary of state Colin Powell visit this week, Mahmoud Abbas - Abu Mazen - is endeavoring to earn the job of first Palestinian prime minister by keeping three balls up in the air at once: He wants to prove his "reformist" credentials to Washington and Jerusalem, uphold his Palestinian credibility at home and in the Arab world and beat off Yasser Arafat's incessant overt and sneak assaults on his standing. It is hard to see how he can succeed.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report April 30, 2003
As night follows day, a Palestinian terrorist attack was bound to follow the approval of the new Abu Mazen government on Tuesday, April 29, in Ramallah. In fact, it was carried out during the night between its approval and swearing in Wednesday morning April 30 as the first supposedly reform administration dedicated to fighting terror. Yasser Arafat must have had his next operation well in hand when he urged the Palestinian Legislative Council meeting at his office in Ramallah to endorse a cabinet originally conceived to root out the terrorism and corruption he instigated. After failing to torpedo the new administration, Arafat made a big show of embracing it, while first rendering Mahmoud Abbas (Abu Mazen) helpless to carry out the reforms that would have cleared the way for the revival of a peace process on the road to Palestinian statehood.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report April 24, 2003
Only one man is smiling in the group photo of Yasser Arafat, incoming Palestinian reform prime minister Mahmoud Abbas and Egyptian intelligence chief Osman Suleiman, who brokered an accord on the makeup of the new government. That man is Arafat. The rest were grim. In the current round of the Ramallah power struggle, Abu Mazen with massive international backing may have forced Arafat to accept former Gazan security chief Mohammed Dahlan as internal security minister, but in the process he has fallen back on home ground and Arafat has come up smiling. Uneasy over Dahlan's empowerment, the Fatah leadership and Palestinian institutions which first granted majority backing to Abu Mazen's premiership has reverted to support of Arafat.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report April 20, 2003
Even in the topsy-turvy world of Palestinian-Israeli relations, Mohammed Dahlan's appointment as interior minister in charge of security in Mahmoud Abbas aka Abu Mazen's so-called reformed Palestinian government is bizarre. As director of the Gaza Strip's Palestinian "Preventive" Security body, Dahlan was the prime mover of Arafat's confrontation with Israel from 2001 in the region he controlled. His brainchildren included the use of cell phones by the first Palestinian terrorists and suicide killers to trip bombs and activate explosive belts in multi-casualty strikes at Israeli crowd centers. It was Dahlan who brought the extremist Islamic Hamas and Jihad Islami into Arafat's fold as full partners of the Fatah Tanzim and Palestinian security services. He played host to the Lebanese Hizballah experts imported by Arafat. And Dahlan, whose organizational ability is not in question, set up the Karin-A arms smuggling ship that Israeli commandos intercepted on its way to the Gaza Strip with 50 tons of weapons for restocking Arafat's arsenal of terror.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report March 9, 2003
Nominating his most outspoken critic, Mahmoud Abbas, 68, the veteran PLO secretary general usually known as Abu Mazen, as first Palestinian prime minister certainly stuck in Yasser Arafat's throat. Yet he went through with his presentation to the PLO Central Committee and the Central Council in Ramallah, on Saturday, March 8 and Sunday March 9. To make sure the Palestinian leader did not back out at the last minute, Israel conveyed a hint that he may be closer to deportation than he thinks. Monday, March 10, the Palestinian Legislative Council is due to determine what authority the new position will carry. The showdown between Arafat and Abu Mazen over the division of authority between them is the focus of heated deliberations in these labyrinthine institutions. But a senior Palestinian source reported to debkafile that at this stage, Abu Mazen has been neatly outmaneuvered.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report February 17, 2003
The Israeli army has plainly stepped up its drive against the Hamas and Jihad Islami in the Gaza Strip and Mt. Hebron in the southern West Bank. Less visibly, in the same arena, defense minister Shaul Mofaz and chief of staff Lt.-Gen. Moshe Yaalon are locked in a complicated and grim showdown with Syrian president Bashar Assad and Hizballah chairman Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah, Israel's most implacable Arab foes. Neither side admits what is going on, but Israel's military chiefs are racing to undo a devious plan set in motion by Assad and Nasrallah plan to transform the Gaza Strip and southern West Bank into the southern offshoots of the Syrian-Lebanese northern front against Israel, before the Iraq war fully erupts. They would thus exploit the Palestinian terror campaign to drag Israel into a full-blown regional conflict, without exposing their own territory and power centers to reprisal - or even laying themselves open to be charged as aggressors.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report January 14, 2003
Tuesday, January 14, the Palestinian Authority's Al Ayyam daily published a message, approved by Yasser Arafat in the name of all the Palestinian groups, calling off attacks on Israeli citizens. This message, formulated by the Egyptian intelligence chief Omar Suleiman, also endorses the continuing Palestinian struggle for a state whose capital is Jerusalem. Gen. Suleiman was to submit this text to the London Middle East conference opened by British foreign secretary Jack Straw Tuesday night, January 14, in the presence of representatives from the Middle East Quartet, Egypt, Jordan and Saudi Arabia.
The Palestinians will be there via a videolink after Israeli banned Palestinian travel in the wake of the massacre by Palestinian terrorists on January 5 of 23 people in Tel Aviv. Israel was not invited by British PM Tony Blair.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report December 27, 2002
When he launched the Likud campaign for the January 28 general election on Wednesday, December 25, prime minister Ariel Sharon said cryptically:"I believe peace with the Palestinians is nearer than thought." He went on to promise "I won't let any opportunities get away." Needless to say, this was not what his party wanted to hear. A majority is up in arms about his firm advocacy of a Palestinian state, albeit a limited and demilitarized one. (See also debkafile December 5 "Sharon's Palestinian speech may backfire"). In his latest contribution to the subject, he said a Palestinian state was not his heart's desire, but it was bound to happen. Thus far, he has not confided his Palestinian state plan to any of those ministers. In the meantime, the scandals swirling around vote-selling and corruption allegations occupy the center of Israel's political stage. Sharon obviously has his mind on other things and may even welcome the media's inattention to his main pursuit, which is, according to debkafile's American and Palestinian sources, a hush-hush, informal discourse with Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat on the outline of a peace accord for creating a Palestinian state and shaping Israel's final borders.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report December 21, 2002
German diplomat and member of European Union Commission Christian Waldrahs was saved by his bulletproof jeep from an assassin's bullets, fired as he came out of Jenin Fatah commander Mussa Kadura's home on Saturday, December 21.
debkafile's military and counter-terror sources report that Waldrahs has the unhappy distinction of being the first target of an al Qaeda assassination plot executed by a Fatah-al Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades operative against a Western diplomat on Palestinian territory.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report December 15, 2002
Jordanian information minister Mohammad Adwan fingered Saad bin Suwied and Yasser Ibrahim as the murderers who fired eight bullets from the silenced gun that slew USAID executive Lawrence Foley outside his home in Amman on October 28. Adwan described Suwied - a Libyan who entered Jordan on a Tunisian passport and Ibrahim, a Jordanian - as al Qaeda members who were paid $68,000 for the assassination. According to the information reaching debkafile's intelligence sources, the two assassins are not al Qaeda; they are in fact members of two Palestinian groups, who work in conjunction - the pro-Iraq Arab Liberation Front, whose leader Abu al Abbas is based in Baghdad, and the Jordanian wing of Yasser Arafat's Fatah movement. They were apprehended by Jordanian security forces in November in a sweep of the south Jordanian Islamic fundamentalist town of Ma'an. After a brief interrogation, the captured men admitted working for Palestinian groups operating in Jordan on behalf of Iraqi military intelligence.
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report December 9, 2002
On instructions from attorney general Elyakim Rubinstein, the Israeli police have begun investigating the business dealings of former Shin Beit officer Yossi Ginossar with Palestinian leaders, to determine if there are grounds for a criminal investigation. Ginossar says his business ties with Yasser Arafat's top officials, especially his personal financial adviser Mohammad Rashid, were public knowledge, entailed no illegal actions and were found useful by four Israeli prime ministers. "Muhammad Rashid never dealt in terrorism," Ginossar assured weekend interviewers. The veteran secret agent turned businessman served as unofficial go-between with the Palestinian Authority for the late Itzhak Rabin, Shimon Peres, Binyamin Netanyahu and Ehud Barak. However, Rubinstein advised Ariel Sharon when he succeeded Barak in 2001 to refrain from using Ginossar's services except in extreme matters of life and death, because of a possible conflict of interests.

Great photos! Somehow the walls seemed more complete in your picture, i remember reading there was a collapse a few years ago
The white building with a rounded dome is the synagogue of Trencin. Great photos.
When I visited, the castle guide said his bit in Slovak, then repeated the entire thing in english just for me. He'd overheard me and my Slovak girlfriend speaking in english and took it upon himself to translate. No problems in Trencin. Loved it!
Great page on very interesting town!
via asia to learn more about Trencin, that's VT at it's best ;-)))
Really fantastic! I passed Trencin once, but that was long ago in communist times... and I didn´t look as beautiful as it looks now!
Beautiful photos.
Fantastic Anuar. Stunning main pic of the castle. Look forward to seeing lots more tips on your travels so I can rate them. Well done.

About Hyde Park Lane Bungalows
The popular Hyde Park Lane Bungalows resort is a popular choice for families and couples looking for a special getaway to the island of Lanzarote. The 3 ½ star hotel is located right in the heart of Puerto del Carmen, and is just a short walk away from the major tourist highlights of the region.
Aside from the extensive facilities available in the local area, the hotel also offers many facilities on-site. These include games that the whole family will enjoy, such as table tennis, tennis, and a children's playground — a little something for everyone. There are also four swimming pools at the resort, so you'll always be able to find some space in which to practice your technique.
The hotel is noted for being a relaxing retreat in an otherwise lively area, which ensures that you're able to get the best of both worlds on your holiday — a comfortable and rejuvenating resort that also has plenty of things to do both onsite and in the surrounding area.
Facilities, Entertainment, Activities
Hyde Park Lane Bungalows provides a lot of facilities to its guests. These include considerate gestures, such as luggage storage and use of a bathroom with showers for people on the day of their departure, after they've checked out, ensuring you can enjoy the full extent of your getaway. During your stay, you can make use of spa and massage services provided at the hotel to feel extra relaxed. Need a fresh set of clothes? Don't worry, there's a laundry room onsite.
Wireless internet is provided free of charge around the hotel. There's also plenty of entertainment provided by Hyde Park Lane Bungalows. There is live music several nights a week, while kids and adults alike will enjoy the daytime animation programs.
There's a club just for kids, which has games consoles, drawing boards, and also organises games. There are even arcade slot machines for the whole family to get involved in.
Room Information and Room Facilities
There are four room types at Hyde Park Lane Bungalows: Studios, Single Apartments, Double Apartments, and a bungalow that sleeps four. Couples who don't mind less space will find the studio apartment suits their needs well, while those with larger groups — and those who just want to feel more at home — will appreciate the space of one of the larger apartments.
The brightly decorated rooms come with a full bathroom, telephone, television, safe (for a fee), and ceiling fans to help keep you cool. There's also a full kitchen in each room, which comes complete with microwave, burner rings, fridge, and a toaster. Each room also has its own private terrace or balcony, which means you can always the sun no matter where you are.
Food and Drink Options
There are many, many restaurants and bars just a short walk from the hotel, but you don't have to leave the resort to find a delicious meal. The onsite restaurant and snack bar offers food for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and for those snack times in between. Guests can eat buffet style for breakfast and dinner, or opt for the a la carte dinner experience. The snack bar is open all day and offers light meals, ice-creams, and drinks.
In the evening, spend your time at the bar, which offers cocktails and other tasty beverages as live music is playing. If you'd rather do your own thing, you can take a trip to the supermarket, which is located within the resort, and pick up some food — and perhaps a bottle of wine — to cook in your very own kitchen. You can have the meal on your balcony or terrace for a memorable evening.

We won our final match of the season against Denmark 3-1, meaning we will finish in 4th or 5th place, depending on the results of the other games in the final round; better than last year when we finished 7th. Watch http://pandanet-igs.com/communities/euroteamchamps/ for final details.
In round 9 Chong Han won on board 1 against Kasper Ho
The 33rd World Amateur has ended in Guangzhou in China.
Our winning ways came to an end this month with a 2-2 draw against Slovakia.
On board 1 Chong Han was in for a tough game against Pavol Lisy 6d, under-20 European Youth Champion in 2011.
We followed up last month's first victory of the season with a 4-0 win against Slovenia.
Chong Han on board 1 was again the first to finish, beating Leon Matoh. Chong captured some key stones early on after cutting a 2-space jump, though Leon did get some compensation.
Csaba Mero, 6d Hungary, won the European Cup event in Dublin. This year the Irish Open was the Confucius Cup, because of a new sponsor. Second with four wins out of five was Guochen Xie, 6d China. Kim Ouweleen, 3d Amsterdam, was third and Chu Lu, 4d Warwick, was fourth, both on 3 wins. Taken the fifth place and final grand prix place was Vit Brunner, 4d Brno.
It's round 6; we're still seeking a win and now we're playing the second team in the League, Finland, relegated from Division 1 last year, so it's going to be tough.
Chong Han leads off with a quickish victory on Board 1.
We went into our match this week hoping to get our first win of the season, Switzerland being one of the weaker teams who were promoted from the C league.
On 1st board was new team member Chong Han. He played an unconventional, centre-oriented opening which lead to complex fighting and many chances for both to win, but in the end he lost by a few points.
Yet another loss in the Pandanet European Championship...
The two newcomers to our team did not have a good time - Bei Ge losing a very close game on the first board against the top Israeli Ali Jabarin, actually playing from Korea where we think he's undergoing some Baduk training, and David Ward on last board struggling with using Pandanet for the first time, also losing.
Jon Diamond screwe
China were unbeaten in all five matches to win the team event at the first SportAccord World Mind Games in Beijing. They beat Europe, Taiwan and finally the US 5-0; in round 2 they had beaten Korea 3-2 and in round 4 had beaten Japan 4-1. Second place went to Korea who only lost to China and beat Japan in the last round 4-1.
23 players graced Cork with their presence this year. The tournament took place in the rather beautiful main campus of University College Cork. Top of the bunch was Kim Ouweleen, 3d, from Amsterdam, with a perfect 5/5. In second place was Ian Davis, 1d, who edged out Spain's Matei Garcia, 4k, on tiebreak, despite his 5/5 score. Also scoring 5/5 was Thomas Shanahan, 15k, from Galway.
