It's the holiday season.
Television is full of happy faces, each with a twinkle in the eye, and radio is alive with sappy, life-is-a-twinkling-tree tunes.
However, in real-life, December is not all comfort and joy for everyone.
Dr. Pamela Thompson, psychologist and author of the book, "Surviving Mama," said the stress of reuniting with family members can be just as intense as the stress of long lines, high prices and bumper-to-bumper traffic.
"It's a hectic time, even outside the whole family scene," Thompson said. "People are in all different places in their lives and they all come together under one roof. All your issues are in one room at the same time."
She said individual problems like weight gain, sibling rivalry, parental and money issues can add to the stress of the holidays.
"Those going home may have angst about what awaits them, being cooped up with the family," Thompson said. "But we want to create and report back to our friends, a perfect experience."
Says Thompson, "Stop expecting an elephant to meow."
Family members are not likely to change just because the calendar did, so Thompson suggests adjusting your expectations to face the reality of the situation.
"You know what they are most likely to say or do, so if you don't adjust, you're frustrated within in the first two hours," Thompson said. "Stop expecting that it will be different. If people are difficult, they are going to be difficult."
Older parents have "been in the ring for a long time doing what they do," Thompson said.
"They are masterful," she said. "You wouldn't get into the ring with Mike Tyson."
She said not to expect a "Hallmark moment," because it could backfire into more venom and defensiveness.
"You can't expect them to change, but you can change the way you process it," she said.
Thompson also said to remember that it doesn't make sense to argue with a brick wall.
"Don't get emotionally worked up," she said. "The very second you realize you're engaging with a fool, just shut up. Their goal was to get you rattled."
To guard against going into the holidays feeling down about yourself or your situation, "be good to yourself throughout the entire year," she said.
"Focus on personal growth so when the holidays come around, you have confidence in yourself," she said. "Avoid isolating yourself at all costs. You never know what might happen. That one party or that one gathering, something could happen to turn your life around."
But since it's too late to fix the previous year for this holiday season, Thompson offered some suggestions for this year's festivities.
"If you're going home to stay for a few days, make plans ahead of time to do things with old friends while you're there to assure you have some time outside the homestead so you can refresh," she said.
She also said, that no matter how tough the visit may be, everyone should respect their elderly family members.
"Honor your parents and recognize all the sacrifices they have made, even though they are flawed people like we all are," she said.
If a relationship has crumbled, invite that family member into some space in your life, she said.
"A benign safety zone," she suggested. "Ask for a recipe, to help organize a pantry or ask how to pick a sweet cantaloupe. Mom will be delighted you asked for her opinion. And it's a safe way to form a bond, because it's just a sweet cantaloupe."

Taylor Lautner uses intense cardio and circuit training to keep himself ripped. Whenever he spends time running or sprinting he could very well end up with shin sprints, and has probably experienced them several times in his life. Has anyone heard any reports of Taylor getting shin splints? I know I did when I was training for 5k races and running interval sprints to try to get real lean.
Unfortunately, even for a celebrity superstar, shin sprints can ruin several week of training. If I were a fly on the wall, this is how I would teach Taylor about shin sprints - what they are, how to avoid them, and how to heal them. It's advice that can work for you too.
Shin splints are a common injury associated with excessive trauma to the lower legs, as with running and jumping, and with overuse of the muscles surrounding the tibia - the main bone in the lower leg. This injury is one of the worst for an athlete who uses their legs often, because it takes between 2-3 week of rest to heal enough from shin splints to able to participate in their sport.
For more information on what causes shin splints, you should read this really helpful post: What are Shin Splints
One you have shin splints, they don't go away for several weeks, as I mentioned before. For this reason we must do what we can to avoid shin splints in the first place. To avoid shin splints, we must change at least one of the following conditions of our training:
For more information about avoiding shin splints, here is a great resource: How to Avoid Shin Spints
Some of us will get shin splints no matter what we do; sometimes our biomechanics work against us. No matter what, if we develop shin splints we must identify the cause. Otherwise the injury will keep recurring no matter what we try to do to avoid it. Sometimes the cause is related to our bones and sometimes it is related to our muscles. Either way, there are options we can use to heal quicker, be it stretching, strengthening or applying RICE (rest, ice, compression, elevation).
For detailed solutions to help you recover form shin splints, here is a great article: How to Treat Shin Splints
With all this helpful advice, you have no excuse to repeatedly suffer from shin splints for a long period of time. Whether you are a dedicated sports athlete, a weekend warrior, or a recreational runner, you will need to think about shin splints at some point in your training career. Make the best of it, and shin splints won't hold you back for very long at all.

Applied Physics, MS
Applied Physics is devoted to the study and understanding of nature. Considered the most fundamental science, it deals with the constituents, properties, and evolution of the entire universe, from the smallest subatomic particles to the largest galaxies. But because physics covers so much territory, many questions about the physical world have yet to be answered.
At NYU Engineering, our MS in Applied Physics program trains the next generation of physicists to find those answers. Courses for this program are held on our Brooklyn campus, primarily in the evening.
Admissions Criteria
Admitted students will be expected to have a BS in physics or a closely-related discipline and to make up any deficiencies before commencing graduate studies. Letters of recommendation, GRE and TOEFL scores, and application letters will be considered in the admission process.

The All-Star rosters are set and MLB's Final Vote is in full swing. And one the hottest topics during the dog days of summer—when all other sports cease to exist—is the All-Star snubs.
Some of this year's biggest omissions have found their way onto the Final Vote selection. Paul Konerko was a massive oversight on the All-Star roster, but he's currently leading in the Final Vote ballot. Likewise, Alex Gordon's resurgent season was overlooked by manager Ron Washington and players, but he's still got a shot to make the AL squad.
But just like Konerko and Gordon were snubbed from the roster, plenty of deserving guys were snubbed from the Final Vote.
You could come up with a couple dozen, but I've limited it to 10 guys who deserved consideration but once again were overlooked.

Situated between the waters of the Columbia and Willamette Rivers, Portland's history is forever entwined with the fortunes of the great rivers. In the golden age of riverboats, sternwheelers crossed Portland's waterfront while steam whistles and calliopes rang out across the water. Today, highlights include the Portland Art Museum, the International Rose Test Garden and the famous Powell's Bookstore, filling an entire city block.
Roses will adorn the ship as we arrive in Portland, also known as the "City of Roses." In the morning, our guide will meet us at the ship for a fun-filled, narrated tour of the city. We'll explore the popular downtown area, considered to be one of the "top 10" most livable cities in the world. We'll cross many of the notable scenic Portland bridges including Hawthorne Bridge (1910) and Broadway Bridge (1913) as we make our way to the Rose Garden State Park. Our final stop will be to the popular International Test Garden, which features over 6,800 rose bushes representing 557 varieties. Here, you can stroll the lush grounds or visit the Rose Garden Store, offering hundreds of rose-themed items.
*Tour only offered on cruises ending in Portland, OR.
A nationally significant historic region at the western end of the Lewis & Clark Trail, Astoria is the oldest American settlement west of the Rockies. In the winter of 1805-06, the Lewis & Clark Corps of Discovery Expedition was headquartered at Fort Clatsop. In 1955, a replica of the fort was built near the original site and was eventually named a National Monument. With its steep hills and beautiful Victorian homes, Astoria has been called the "Little San Francisco of the Pacific Northwest" and has a revitalized downtown ideal for shopping and dining.
In the morning, you can take a trolley or a leisurely 5-minute walk to the Columbia River Maritime Museum. Here you'll meet with our guide for you a personalized tour of the facilities. We'll examine the history of crossing the bar, known as one of the toughest and most treacherous routes in maritime history. You'll explore actual ships that were destroyed during the river crossing, discover artifacts and learn what makes this specific area so dangerous and feared by even the most experienced sailors.
The evening before you tour Astoria, our onboard lecturer, often Todd Weber, will provide an entertaining and historically accurate portrayal of the city and the Lewis and Clark expedition here during the 1800s. At Fort Clatsop, a Park Ranger will meet with our group to explain its significance and begin a personalized tour of the grounds. You'll witness live demonstrations, tour the museum and explore the exact replica of the fort where Lewis and Clark wintered in 1806. We'll then depart through the city of Astoria on our way to the Astoria Column. This majestic tower perched high on a bluff overlooks the city and river, providing outstanding views of the landscape below and our ship as it rests in port. If you're up to the challenge, you can walk the 164 steps up the tower to the observation deck for a once-in-a-lifetime photo opportunity.
The duo of David Duthie and Bo Ayers will entertain guests with a set of songs from the "Great American Songbook," a collection of the most important and influential American popular songs of the 20th century. These familiar melodies are principally from Broadway theatre, musical theatre, and Hollywood musical film from the 1920s through the 1950s.
You won't be disappointed on this shore excursion. In the morning, we'll take a scenic tour through Astoria as we journey to Cape Disappointment State Park. Here a Park Ranger will greet us at the bus and serve as our guide through the impressive Lewis and Clark Interpretive exhibit. Situated on the cliffs 200 feet above the Pacific Ocean, the center commemorates the Corps of Discovery's 1804-1806 expedition. You'll witness live demonstrations, an interactive film, and a variety of exhibits dedicated to Lewis and Clark. The impressive mural-sized "timeline" panels guide you through the exhibit while featuring many of the actual sketches, paintings, and photographs of the Corps members. This tour blends perfectly complements Todd Weber's onboard Lewis and Clarks lectures.
Perhaps the most impactful of all landmarks in the region is Mount St. Helens. From high on an overlook, bear witness to the awesome power of the volcano whose eruption in 1980 scorched 230 square miles of forest land and forever changed the landscape. Expert guides will show you the pumice plain and lava dome as they explain the effect the volcano had on the lives of those in the surrounding towns.
May 18, 1980 is a day etched into the history of the United States as the powerful eruption of Mount St. Helens drastically changed the landscape of what is now referred to as the National Volcanic Monument. On your scenic journey to the Mount St. Helens Johnston Ridge Observatory, your tour guide will provide engaging commentary regarding the eruption, how it affected the landscape and surrounding communities, and how the environment has responded naturally to the disturbance. The Observatory itself sits on a bluff near the crater, offering spectacular views of the pumice plain and blast site.
Will Keifer picked up a guitar at the age of
six, and has been a one man show with his banjo ever since. He has worked
with several great jazz artists, including Stan Kenton, and has won several "Best Show of
the Cruise" awards. Will's amazing talent and enthusiasm always
makes his performances a fun-filled evening.
The Columbia River Gorge is a spectacular river canyon cutting the only sea-level route through the Cascade Mountain Range. A popular recreational destination, the gorge holds federally protected status as a National Scenic Area. The cliffs of the gorge look down on quaint riverfront towns and exhilarating waterfalls.
Named after early American settler George H. Stevenson, this town rose to prominence quickly due to economic expansion made possible by the Columbia River. The Columbia Gorge Interpretive Center showcases the area's unique cultural and historical diversity, from the Native American tribes that inhabited the Gorge, to Lewis and Clark and 19th-century loggers.
A highlight of any trip to the Pacific Northwest, Multnomah Falls is sure to leave you in awe. After breakfast, our private guide will meet you at the ship's dock right in the middle of the Columbia River Gorge, and your journey to the majestic waterfall begins. As you wind through the thick forest you will cross the impressive "Bridge of the Gods," before finally reaching Multnomah Falls. Upon arrival, you will have time to explore the Falls on your own, and walk the famous Benson Bridge to get the best vantage point for your photo opportunities.
*Fish Hatchery only offered on cruises ending in Portland, OR
Throughout your journey on the Columbia River, you will transit 8 locks, lifting the ship more than 700 feet vertically. During the cruise, our onboard experts will touch upon this complex lock and dam system. The excursion to the Bonneville Dam builds upon the lectures you have heard throughout the week, providing an in-depth view into this most famous of all dams. Here you will gain an understanding of the engineering behind the Bonneville Dam, which enables it to generate enough hydroelectric power to provide nearly 500,000 homes with electricity. After lunch, explore the Columbia Gorge Interpretive Center and learn of the bountiful life on the Gorge from knowledgeable locals who have lived in the area for generations.
Kevin Neil is a solo guitar player who brings our ship's voyage to life. His "Songs of the Sailor" performance is a collection of maritime songs and sea shanties inspired by sailors of old, while his Cowboy Kevin show features a country-style twang , reminiscent of the heroic cowboys of the Old West.
Located in the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area, between Mt. Hood and Mt. Adams, on the south bank, The Dalles is a perfect photographic spot. Discover the area where Lewis & Clark camped at Rock Fort Camp during their historic journey to explore the Louisiana Purchase territory in 1805-1806.
As you step off the ship, you'll be greeted by members of the local visitor's center who are dressed in period-specific clothing from the pinnacle days of riverboating. Our guide will meet us at the ship for a short narrated tour of the town before arriving at the Columbia Gorge Discovery Center. Here, we'll explore the various exhibits that highlight the volcanic upheaval and raging floods that helped to create the gorge. The highlight of the center visit includes a unique raptor exhibition where we'll watch birds of prey put on an aerobatic display and learn about the protected eagles that call the gorge home.
Overlooking the gorge sits the Maryhill Museum of Art. Here, Native American artifacts, royal memorabilia from Queen Marie of Romania, outdoor sculptures, and a permanent collection of international chess sets adorn the museum halls. You'll not only be treated to one-of-a-kind permanent collection, but also a variety of featured exhibitions. After spending the morning exploring in the museum, we will stop at the Maryhill Winery for a tour of the pristine vineyard and, of course, some wine sampling. Your private tour will be given by one of the talented wine-makers on premise. We'll visit the vine-covered arbor, world class bocce course, the 4,000 seat amphitheater, and finally the 3,000 square foot tasting room where you'll receive samples of Maryhill's finest wine.
JR Spencer is a Nez Perce Native American who has created an authentic cultural performance celebrating the traditions and history of the Nez Perce people.

Enjoy a scenic ride through the countryside and witness the striking contrast in landscape as you make your way to Pendleton, OR for the day's excursions. Upon arrival, you will be greeted by our private tour guide who will take you to explore Pendleton's infamous underground city before a complimentary BBQ lunch at the famous Hamley's Restaurant. In the afternoon, you will visit the Tamastslikt Cultural Institute, for a look into the storied past of the Cayuse, Umatilla, and Walla Walla Tribes; also visit the famous Pendleton Woolen Mill where you will have a tour of the mill and the chance to purchase authentic woven goods. We also offer a tour of the Reach Museum, for guests who wish to explore a little closer to port. Just a five minute walk from the ship, this interactive museum details the specifics of the building of the first atomic bomb. Once back on board, representatives from the Bernard Griffin Winery join us during cocktail hour for an exclusive wine tasting.
The twin cities of Lewiston, ID and Clarkston, WA, are known as the Northwest's most inland seaports. Along the Snake River you'll find Hells Canyon, the deepest canyon in North America. This canyon is known for its pristine scenery and thriving wildlife.
The evening before we visit the Nez Perce National Historic Park, we will welcome aboard local Clarkston resident JR Spencer, who is a direct descendant of the Nez Perce tribe. In his interactive onboard presentation, he not only tells the story of the Nez Perce and their history with the region, but he also shares authentic Native American artifacts that hold significant value to his people. His narration provides the perfect background for our visit. In the morning, we'll take a narrated tour to the Historical Park, where we'll be greeted by our guide. Here, you'll hear the stories of the Nez Perce tribe, best remembered for having saved the Lewis and Clark Expedition team from starvation following their journey through the Bitterroot Mountains.

Two hundred years ago, Lewis & Clark set out on their pioneering journey into the West. Follow their path on this Columbia and Snake Rivers cruise with opportunities to walk on their former campsites and see artifacts from the expedition.
The Lewis and Clark Expedition, also known as the Corps of Discovery Expedition, was the first American expedition to travel into the Western United States. Commissioned by President Thomas Jefferson shortly after the Louisiana Purchase of 1803, Captain Meriwether Lewis and Second Lieutenant William Clark set out to explore the new territory for a practical route of travel and establish an American presence in the West before other nations attempted to claim it.
Follow the path pioneered by Lewis and Clark on an unforgettable Columbia and Snake River cruise, including a stop at Fort Clatsop, where the expeditionary team camped before heading back to St. Louis.

A mystery in Mount Airy has a local thrift shop searching for a good Samaritan.
It centers on a donation that has the recipients thinking the gift was a little larger than intended.
It all started a few days ago, when volunteers at the St. James Episcopal Church Thrift Shop found a large amount of cash in a clothing donation that had just been dropped off.
A gift? Maybe. But parishioner Lynda Ellis says she felt it wasn't intended.
Now the church is trying to track down the donor to make sure it was a gift and not a mistake.
"They may say no we really meant to donate that to you and that would be wonderful for our thrift shop and for our community but we really want to find that person and at least be able to thank them," Ellis says.
The money now sits at the bank waiting for its rightful owner.
People in this town say they believe the shop is doing the right thing. They say in these types of situations honesty is always the best policy.
"I would love for them to find their money and get their money back," says resident Charlotte Eaton.
Eaton worries someone may not have noticed they are missing the money.
"It might be some money that is going to pay some bills or it might be all they have," Eaton says. "It might be all the money they have."
But others - like Sarah and Bryan Grose - wonder if this was just a good Samaritan in disguise.
"Since it's a church operated center maybe they thought that they could use it in some way," Sarah Grose says.

Mikeyt asked:
How realistic is it for me to set a goal of achieving a master chess rating?
To help you out, I'll give a little info on my background. In my younger days I played myself to a 1900+ USCF rating without ever putting serious study into the openings or endings.
However, I haven't played tournament chess in a number of years and now am 45 years old and raising 6 children. So, there won't be a lot of time for playing or studying. Still, I feel I have unfinished business in chess and would be willing to carve out an hour or two each week (hopefully more as the kids get older), if there was reason to hope of achieving a 2200 rating some day.
Dear Mikeyt:
I've actually discussed this kind of thing in several articles – they can be found in my chess.com archive. My general reply is this: everyone has the potential to make master (2200), but that potential can only be realized through patience, a good study program (I address this in past articles too), and hard work. It might take years of effort, but what worthwhile goal doesn't take a long time (plus blood, sweat, and tears) to achieve? In your case the process is already further along than with most since you reached a fairly high level in the past. If you feel that the process will be enjoyable, and if you understand that it will take you a few years, then by all means go for it.
Andy asked:
I won my school's championship by learning some basic Nimzovich Defense theory to deviate from the usual French Defense lines that I play against my friend (these usually end up as draws and I need a win). I found it useful to take a 1.e4 player out of their comfort zone, yet it is still highly transpositional if that's your thing. However, I love its similarities to a French but with the developed white Bishop; and also the Scandinavian variation, with the knights developed, is a lot safer for Black in my very humble opinion.
What do you think of the Nimzovich?
Dear Andy:
I guess you're referring to 1.e4 Nc6 2.d4 d5 when you get Scandinavian-like positions after 3.exd5 Qxd5, and French-type positions after 3.e5. This opening is still relatively unexplored, and most players take it for granted that it's just bad. However, this misconception of its worth can only help you, since few players are actually prepared for 1.e4 Nc6.
Probably the best book on the subject is Play 1…Nc6! by Christoph Wisnewski (Everyman Chess, 2007), which gives you 268 pages of pro-Nimzovich analysis showing why it's a great opening – in other words, the author plays this for Black and clearly loves it. One nice thing about this book is that he covers …Nc6 vs. every white first move, thus he looks at 1.e4 Nc6, 1.d4 d5 2.c4 (or 2.Nf3) 2…Nc6, 1.c4 Nc6, and 1.Nf3 Nc6.
Generally, most strong players answer 1.e4 Nc6 with 2.Nf3 when Black usually responds with 2…e5, transposing into classic double king-pawn openings. However, Wisnewski doesn't like being herded in sheep-like fashion into other's openings, so he recommends 1.e4 Nc6 2.Nf3 Nf6 when 3.e5 Ng4 4.d4 d6 (first seen in Rellstab - Bogoljubov, Berlin 1940) 5.h3 Nh6, which is a pet line of Spanish grandmaster Marc Narciso Dublan, who (according to Wisnewski) calls it, "El Columpio" (translation: The Swing). The book gives games and analysis to support their view that black's doing fine (keep in mind that this is not my point of view!).
Here's a game that shows how bizarre the play can be in "The Swing":
J.Sprenger - H.Keilhack, correspondence 1996
1.e4 Nc6 2.Nf3 Nf6 3.e5 Ng4 4.d4 d6 5.h3 Nh6 6.Bxh6 gxh6 7.Bb5 a6 8.Bxc6+ bxc6 9.Qe2 Rg8 10.Nc3 Rxg2 11.Ne4 Be6 12.0–0–0 Qb8 13.c4 Qb4 14.Nh4 Bxc4 15.Qe3 Rg7 16.Nf5 Rg6 17.b3 Bd5 18.Nh4 dxe5 19.Nxg6 hxg6 20.Rhe1 a5 21.dxe5 Qa3+ 22.Kb1 a4 23.Qf3 axb3 24.Nf6+ exf6 25.exf6+ Be7, 0-1.
Against 1.e4 Nc6 2.d4 d5 3.exd5 Qxd5 4.Nf3 Wisnewski analyzes 4…Bg4 5.Be2 0-0-0 6.Be3 (he also explores 6.Nc3, 6.c3, and 6.c4) 6…Nf6 7.0-0 Qh5 in detail and walks away chuckling in glee about black's chances.
After this, he takes the space gaining 1.e4 Nc6 2.d4 d5 3.e5 to task and recommends the odd 3…f6 (he feels that 3…Bf5 4.Ne2 leaves black's light-squared Bishop exposed) when 4.Bd3 g6 and 4.f4 Nh6 5.Nf3 Bf5 is given serious coverage. Here's a game from the book that shows black's chances after 3.e5:
L.Myagmarsuren - D.Van Geet, Varna 1958
1.e4 Nc6 2.d4 d5 3.e5 f6 4.Bd3 g6 5.Nf3 Bg4 6.exf6 Nxf6 7.c3 Bg7 8.h3 Bxf3 9.Qxf3 0–0 10.Qe2 e5 11.dxe5 Nxe5 12.0–0 Nh5 13.Be3 Qh4 14.Nd2 Rad8 15.Kh2 Nf4 16.Bxf4 Qxf4+ 17.g3?? (Better was 17.Kg1 but it's clear that Black stands much better after 17…Rde8) 17…Qxd2 18.Qxd2 Nf3+ 19.Kg2 Nxd2 20.Rfd1 Ne4 21.f3 Nc5 22.Bf1 c6, 0-1.
One of white's best lines against the Nimzovich is 1.e4 Nc6 2.d4 d5 3.Nc3 when 3…dxe4 4.d5 is very dangerous for Black. Wisnewski avoids all that with 3…e6 when we get an "inferior" French defense where Black has blocked his c-pawn. However, is it really inferior? Wisnewski believes that Black can get adequate play. A lot of lines are looked at, but the most critical one is 3.Nc3 e6 4.Nf3 Nf6 5.e5 Ne4 6.Bd3 and now 6…f5!? 7.exf6 Nxf6 8.0-0 Bd6 9.Bg5 (9.Ne2 e5 10.dxe5 Nxe5 11.Nxe5 Bxe5 12.Bf4 Bxf4 13.Nxf4 0–0 gave White nothing in the game F.Lopez Gracia - A.Ansola Marquinez, Zaragoza 1998) 9…0-0 10.Re1 Nb4 hits the d3-Bishop and prepares the thematic …c7-c5 advance.
Do I believe that things are as comfortable for Black as IM Wisnewski would have us believe? Not for a minute! But I will admit that this opening should work perfectly well in non-professional circles. Of course, you'll have to have a taste for slightly unusual positions, but "unusual" doesn't necessarily equal "bad."
I use this defense followed.
interresting on e4 Nc6 Nf3 is the colorado gambit f5
After 1.e4 Nc6 2.Nf3 f5!?
Christoph Wisnewski also wrote another very good book, The Greatest Ever Chess Opening Ideas. Highly recommended.
keren euy...!!
matur nuhun buat article-nya.
to ajchtar:
in this moment - no , may be in near future
Any games where Nimzo isactually playing? Just curius anyway..... :)
I lost this game but I have feeling that somewhere I could play better. My chess-program is old version . If anybody with better program or by his own idea find something for black , please share with me.
this is a correspondent game. White weaken position around their king and quickly lost the game.
good article !!
Hi! Very instersting lines arise after 1.e4 Nc6 2.d4 e5! (supporting what pointed out Morph27) and 1.e4 Nc6 2.Nf3 d6! this way you avoid any 2 knights defense or french type positions!
in the variant: 6.Bg5 Q:g5 7.N:c7+ Kf7 8.Bc4+ Kg6 in a game my opponent choose :
9.Nh3 Qh4 10.N:a8 Bb4+ 11.Kf1 fe 12.e6...........
Refreshing my dear!
his name is spelled Nimzowitsch...if youre talking about the grandmaster who rivaled with alekhine
not to forget that after 1.e4 Nc6 2.d4 black can play 2...e5

Ben Watt Band feat. Bernard Butler
Ahead of his sold out show at The Lexington on Thursday, we are pleased to announce a new Ben Watt show for October!
Ahead of his sold out show at The Lexington on Thursday, we are pleased to announce a new Ben Watt show for October!
TaxiWars is the result of a wayward and intensive collaboration between dEUS frontman Tom Barman and saxophone player Robin Verheyen.
Vocalist Tom Barman has been fronting the indie-band dEUS since 1994, selling over a million albums along the way. He directed the 2003 film Any Way the Wind Blows, and oversaw two acclaimed jazz compilations: That's Blue + Painters Talking (Blue Note, 2006) and Living on Impulse (Impulse!, 2012).
Saxophone player Robin Verheyen moved to New York nine years ago and has built a reputation as one of the great young talents in the world of jazz and classical music. He has released two albums with the Robin Verheyen NY Quartet, and has performed with such artists as Marc Copland, Ravi Coltrane, Narcissus, Gary Peacock, and Joey Baron.
We are very excited to present Sleigh Bells at The Dome this October!
As well as the exciting one off collaborations between artists old and new in the Rough Trade anniversary series, we are pleased to be able to showcase some of the most exciting up and coming bands. Featuring two nights at Rough Trade East, as well as all day events at the Shacklewell Arms and new Hackney venue the Moth Club.
London Duo Ten Fé make darkly romantic electronic rock and roll and have been described as 'wonderfully refined'; they will be joined by Manchester band Aldous RH, the alter ego of ex Egyptian Hip Hop singer Alexander, who creates blurry blue eyed soul and blissful ballads. Plus South London 5 piece shame.
Formation are heading out on tour with Jagwar Ma this October and so unfortunately their Village Underground show has been postponed. All tickets will remain valid for the new date – more info on when this will be very soon.
We're thrilled to announce that Clean Bandit will be playing a show at The Roundhouse in Camden on 24 October!
As part of the Rough Trade 40th Anniversary series we are excited to be bringing together two iconic musicians for a very special Monday evening, Thurston Moore and Charles Hayward.
Moore spent thirty years fronting the groundbreaking and unaccountably influential Sonic Youth, in addition to numerous collaborative and experimental side-projects and running the SYR imprint as well as his own Ecstatic Peace label.
Hayward has been a prominent figure in British music for over 30 years, founding the Rough Trade signed band This Heat, as well as engineering sessions for everyone from The Raincoats to Everything But The Girl. Moore's and Hayward's shared dedication to the art of improvisation is sure to make this an unforgettable night.
Opening the series of events celebrating Rough Trade's 40th anniversary is a night of collaborations at the Barbican, alongside pop up and spoken word performances, a Rough Trade shop and some afternoon sessions as part of the Battle of Ideas festival.
First up at the Barbican are post-punk bands The Pop Group and Protomartyr. Pioneers of the post-punk scene, British band The Pop Group formed in Bristol in 1977 out of a sense of disenchantment with the increasing conservatism of punk, and were signed to Rough Trade within 12 months of forming. Here they collaborate with US band Protomartyr, who formed in 2008 and have released 3 albums to date.
The event continues with collaborations between Scritti Politti and Alexis Taylor as well as John Grant and Wrangler (feat. Stephen Mallinder). British band Scritti Politti was originally formed in 1977 by Welsh singer-songwriter Green Gartside and first signed to Rough Trade Records in 1979. Here he collaborates with Hot Chip's Alexis Taylor, whose latest album Piano came out in June 2016 on Moshi Moshi.
Wrangler is a new project, featuring members of influential acts such as Stephen Mallinder (Cabaret Voltaire – whose association with Rough Trade goes back to the very roots of the independent scene), Phil Winter (Tunng) and Benge (John Foxx & The Maths). Here they team up with John Grant – American singer/songwriter from Denver, Colorado and former lead vocalist with cult favourites The Czars, whose third solo album Grey Tickles, Black Pressure received great critical acclaim. John Grant said: "As a huge fan of Cabaret Voltaire and electronic music in general for over 30 years, it is a huge honour and a dream come true for me to have the opportunity to collaborate with Wrangler".
Stephen Mallinder added: "Joining forces with John seemed to be the consequence of like-minded spirits drawn together and the inevitable trajectory of our collective planets. We had a great opportunity to spend time working on something very specific and original – to literally bring together the raw elements common to all us – analogue synths, sequences, drum machines, fat basslines, weird noises, beautiful (and wonky) voices."

China research centre for UniSA
- From: The Advertiser
- February 20, 2013
GROWTH and urban development in China and Australia is the focus of a new research centre at UniSA, launched today by Premier Jay Weatherill.
Centre director Professor Steffen Lehmann said the million-dollar investment provided by UniSA would bring new research jobs to the state.
"China is looking at Australia for expertise and support to resolve their serious environmental challenges caused by rapid, out-of-control urbanisation," he said.
He said the new Centre was expected to create eight research positions in Adelaide and train 20 PhD students.
A two-day symposium will address challenges and opportunities facing the China-Australia Centre for Sustainable Urban Development, a collaboration with Tianjin University.
More than 50 delegates from China will attend, including representatives of the Chinese Embassy in Canberra, the Australian Embassy in Beijing, and members of various municipalities and government bodies.
Mr Weatherill said the State Government was strongly committed to extending the relationship between South Australia and China.
"The issues we face in creating the best conditions for the people of our cities to flourish in the twenty-first century are not identical - but that fact provides the potential for the best thinkers in the field to introduce different thinking to each other's situations," he said.
