In this undated image released by Beef Products Inc., boneless lean beef trimmings are shown before packaging. The debate over "pink slime" in chopped beef is hitting critical mass. The term, adopted by opponents of "lean finely textured beef," describes the processed trimmings cleansed with ammonia and commonly mixed into ground meat. Federal regulators say it meets standards for food safety. Critics liken it to pet food _ and their battle has suddenly gone viral amid new media attention and a snowballing online petition.

Hi, I'd really like to check out Cinnamon, but when I attempt to use it as my DM, the screen freezes post login. Desktop rendered with icons. Menu wont work, icons are dead.
I've done a lot of confusing reading re video cards and drivers here and around other Linux forums. I did a benchmark report on my system and this is what I have in the video arena:
Display (Summary Section)
Resolution 1440x900 pixels
OpenGL Renderer ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4200 Series
X11 Vendor The X.Org Foundation
Display (Section)
Resolution 1440x900 pixels
Vendor The X.Org Foundation
Version 1.10.4
Vendor ATI Technologies Inc.
Renderer ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4200 Series
Version 3.3.11005 Compatibility Profile Context
Direct Rendering Yes
Now, I'm not clear how to tell if I am using the X.org generic driver for my card or the ATI driver. There are trade-offs, but generally the proprietary is better at 3D I hear.
How can I ensure I am using the proprietary driver in Cinnamon when I cannot get Cinnamon to run? In MATE I can go into Control Center and have activeated the ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX driver (NOT the post release one....it won't activate for some reason)
Can I activate it for Cinnamon without the GUI?
If you need more info on my system, please let me know.
Thanks for your help

Continuing on from part 1 in this series — where we briefly looked at why we would consider paying for a CMS, then went on to install EE and have a look around — we will now delve much deeper into what makes ExpressionEngine such a powerful CMS. Many people are put off by its steeper learning curve; today's tutorial will try and alleviate some of those worries.
Enough toying around, I want to do something good!
Cool it, cowboy (or cowgirl)! Unfortunately we have to do some homework before we can get down to the nitty gritty. By far and away the most common cause for concern when developers pick up ExpressionEngine for the first time is the terminology that EE utilizes to describe its structure and functionality. They're not necessarily confusing, they're just different from pretty much everything else on the market. Once you've got your noggin around the basics, you're well on your way to converting your existing valid xHTML/CSS sites to an ExpressionEngine-friendly design.
The EE Documentation is an invaluable resource. Bookmark and refer to them often!
Weblogs – probably not what you thought they were
If you're already accustomed to other Content Management Systems – notably WordPress and Joomla – chances are you probably think you know what a weblog is. Well sunshine, you're wrong. An ExpressionEngine weblog isn't a description of everything – the information and the pages which that information is displayed on. This is a really important concept to wrap your head around.
An ExpressionEngine 'weblog' simply consists of information. In the same way that you should be separating your content and style with regards to your xHTML and CSS, EE allows you to separate your content (weblogs) from your styling (templates – more on those shortly). You need to think of a weblog as a container for information that is stored in the database that EE uses.
The official documentation conveys it well – so who am I to reinvent the wheel…
Because ExpressionEngine makes no assumptions about the placement or format of a Weblog's content, you can present the content of your Weblogs on your pages in thousands of ways, structured and organized in a way that makes the most sense for your content.
Templates – probably exactly what you thought they were
Templates are ExpressionEngine's way of displaying the data which you've stored in your weblogs. If, for a moment, you think back to the good old days, when the term 'global financial crisis' referred to the 1930′s, politicians actually did some useful work and… (I digress…) web pages were static, then you can think of a template as a static html page. Even though ExpressionEngine is a dynamic CMS – there are no static html pages (well, sort of). If you think of a template file as such, you will begin to see the bigger picture.
ExpressionEngine takes care of turning a template into a web page when someone visits your site. A template can contain tags which allow you to 'drag in' content from your weblogs (or elsewhere, if necessary).
Adjust Templates
A huge feature of EE is the fact that you're able to adjust your templates from your control panel. Many CMS's have this ability, but to be frank, the implementation is usuallyawful. EE's way of allowing you to adjust everything with their own custom tags (more on these later) from within the control panel is, quite honestly, awesome. You no longer need to faff around with editing a file, then uploading it using your chosen FTP program, then going to your browser and refreshing to make an amendment. EE's control panel and specifically its "Edit Template" functionality is first class and, I believe, unrivaled. (You are able to save your templates as flat files if you wish to be able to edit them in your chosen editor, coda/dreamweaver etc. – we'll walk you through this process in another tutorial)
Template Groups – Does exactly what it says on the tin
One final point of note with regards to templates: you are able to group them as you see fit. A Template Group is a collection of related templates which you are best thinking of as a folder on your file system. You might have a template group which 'groups' all of your site-wide templates, such as the information in your footer, header and menu. On the most part, these are 'static' files (bare with me here) so you could call your template group 'static_template_files' and store your header, menu and footer templates in that group.
Viewing a template
As you don't actually have any physical web pages on your site, you need to tell EE precisely what you want to look at and then EE will determine what template is shown. If you break it down to its core, you can access a specific page as follows:
Pretty straight forward eh? So if you have a template group which is called "Static" and you wish to view your "Footer" template, which is within that group, you would browse to:
EE Tags – The magic begins
For the most part, a template file looks like a standard html page. The discerning factor are EE Tags: these let you generate dynamic content within your template files and are the means by which you will be able to utilize all of the amazing features that EE holds within your templates. This section is pretty hard going, please stick with it. Once you have grasped the basics of weblogs, templates, and finally tags, you're well on your way to becoming an ExpressionEngine superstar. Every single ExpressionEngine tag is linked to a module or plugin that allows you to generate or display content.
What does an EE tag look like?
A fine question! The absolute basics are as follows: a tag is surrounded by curly braces – one's that look like this: { ….. } – and typically has three components.
- The first part tells EE that you are writing a tag
- The second part is the module that you are referring to
- The third part is the specific function from within that module that you are using.
A tag looks like this:
This tag tells ExpressionEngine to run the "entries" function which is found in the "weblog" module. Pretty much all tags have three segments such as this, however, now and again there will be plugins which have only two. Just bare that in mind for now.
There are two types of EE tags – single tags and tag pairs. If we follow on our HTML and CSS analogy from earlier, we can think of single tags as self-closing html tags such as an image tag or a horizontal rule. These tags fetch a single piece of information and do not have a closing tag. These sort of tags will be most familiar to WordPress developers as the vast majority of WP code is self-closing 'single' tags.
The other type of EE tags are tag pairs. Again, following on from our earlier analogy, a tag pair is pretty much identical to standard html tags such as the heading, paragraph or div tags – you have an opening tag, content and then a closing tag. Tag pairs are designed to return several pieces of information. The example above is a tag pair – the 'entries' function from within the 'weblog' module is designed to return several entries from your weblog (in fact in its current format it returns all of the information from your weblog – as long as the correct variables are in place) – You'll use this, in one form or another, an awful lot when you create your own templates (and we'll be seeing it later on in this series when we create our own templates).
EE Tag Variables
Most tag pairs will contain variables – you can think of these as a single piece of information being retrieved using the function which is invoked when you opened the tag pair. For those WordPress developers out there, you can think of variables in exactly the same way as they work in WordPress … you type the variable name and the information that you requested is displayed in your template. The easiest example of this to grasp is by using the weblog:entries function – which we'll use in its most basic form, thus:
{exp:weblog:entries weblog="movies"}

 {title}

{if summary}
Here we've introduced a couple of new things – Parameters and Conditional Variables. We'll break down the above code line by line and explain what's going on.
{exp:weblog:entries weblog="movies"}
We've attached a parameter to the end of the opening part of this tag pair. We've told ExpressionEngine to invoke the 'entries' function from the 'weblog' module and then we've told it that we want to load the 'movies' weblog. This means that only the information that is stored in the 'movies' weblog will be displayed between here and the end of the closing tag pair. The 'entries' function (and the weblog module) can take many parameters and you will be using these the most throughout your templates. The official docs for this particular module list all of the available parameters at http://expressionengine.com/docs/modules/weblog/parameters.html and as you can see, you can 'filter' what you want displayed to a huge degree. This page is probably worthy of a bookmark too!

 {title}

Now we've chosen our weblog, we can get information from it – here we've told ExpressionEngine to output the titles of the entries we have in the 'movies' weblog. This is an example of how we use a variable.
{if summary}
This piece of code, for me and many other developers, highlights one of EE's primary strengths. This is called a Conditional Variable. As you can see we have told EE that if there is a summary for the entry then we should display it. Conditional variables are extremely useful (and are one of the 3 types of variables that are available in EE – the other two being Single Variables and Variable Pairs which we will touch on later in this series).
This is similar to the {title} variable above – but instead we are outputting the main body of the entry.
This is the end of our tag pair – notice we don't need to include the parameter, we're just closing off that particular tag – we're telling EE that we no longer wish to be using the entries function in the weblog module.
But where do I do all of this cool stuff?
OK, so now we know what certain aspects of EE code looks like and we have some understanding of the basics behind displaying information that we want. But how do we go about putting this into a real world example? Let's do precisely that. Let's create our own template which displays just the information that we want!
The first stage is to log in to our control panel – we do this by navigating to our system folder. In the first part of this tutorial we renamed the system folder "NotTheSystemFolder" so we need to go to http://www.MyWebsite.com/NotTheSystemFolder/ (or wherever you installed ExpressionEngine in Part 1) – this will bring up the login page. Enter your credentials and you will be at the main 'dashboard'.
Click on "Templates" and you will be presented with the 'Template Management' Page. This particular page is amazingly useful, but at first glance is quite complicated.
On the far left we have the template groups (remember them?) – we currently have *site and search in our list (this is if you haven't made any adjustments to the standard setup). *site is highlighted and we are able to see the currently available templates that are in this 'group' towards the middle of the screen. If you click on "search" in the templates group, the available templates changes. As you have probably guessed, this template group lists all of the templates that are used whenever someone searches for something on our site. The three that are currently used are 'index', 'results' and 'search_css' – clicking on the title of any of these brings up the edit template screen. However, for now, don't do that – we want to go back to the *site template group and look at some of the templates in there – so click on *site and the templates changes back again.
Between the Template Groups list (with *site and search) and the list of Template Name's you will see a column called "site" (as long as you have the *site template group selected) – the menu with "Preferences, New Template, Edit Group, Delete Group and Export Templates" is the one we want … as we're creating a new template, we naturally, want to click on "New Template"
We need to name our template name – all one word (dashes and underscores are allowed) – we'll call our one "testTemplate" Next you need to select what type of template this is – the drop down box lists several options such as Web Page, RSS Page, CSS Stylesheet, Javascript, Static and XML. Most of these are fairly self-explanatory, but we'll be going through some of these in a later tutorial. For now, we're creating a new web page, so we'll leave it selected as that (it's the default). You are then also give then option to populate your new template with already existing data or one from your library. For clarity, we'll select the default which is "None – create an empty template".
You're now taken back to the Template Management page with a little message which says "Template Created" and you will see in the list that between the templates called "Smileys" and "Trackbacks" is our one called "testTemplate". We now need to click on the title of it so that we are brought to the 'Edit Template' page. You'll see that (because we told EE to do so) that the template is currently empty – there's nothing in the 'Edit' box – if we'd selected to populate our template with data from another template, then you would have seen some code here.
You will see towards the top right that there is a big green button which says "View Rendered Template" – clicking that at the moment is a little unnecessary as you'll just get a big blank screen. However, when we have something coded, we'll be able to use this button to preview our template. Below this button you'll see the Revision History drop down box – when you save your templates, you will have a list of the amendments that you've made here so you can rollback to a point in the past if you make a boob.
Underneath the edit box (and just above the "Update" and "Update and Finished" buttons) you'll see a bar which says "Template Notes" – it's currently collapsed, but if you press on the + icon (or anywhere on the bar, in fact) you'll have another box open up – this is quite a useful little area to make some notes for this template (especially if you're collaborating working on a project).
Less Talking! More Doing!
Fair enough, we've been doing a lot of preliminary work, let's get down and dirty. The first part is fairly straight forward, we need to create a standard HTML page, with the normal headers and containing elements we would have in pretty much all of our standard websites.
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">   <title>ExpressionEngine Template</title>

So, nothing new here – bog standard xHTML strict page with a container div. (Note: for brevity, I haven't included a full version of my standard header with metatags etc.) Now we need to actually get some content into that container so, putting together what we've just learnt above, let's use some EE tags to drag information from our current weblog:

 {exp:weblog:entries weblog="default_site"}
{title}

 By {author} {relative_date} ago
 {body}
Last Edited: {edit_date format="%Y %m %d"}

 {/exp:weblog:entries}

OK, so we've got quite a lot of info here, but stick with it just for a little while. Go ahead and copy that into your "Edit Template" screen (click on 'testTemplate' from within the 'Templates' menu from the dashboard) and then the "Update" button followed by the big green "View Rendered Template" button to see what you've just done.
Not exactly the prettiest thing you've ever created, I would imagine, however, it gets the job done for now. You've dragged in plenty of information from the database using several EE tags and single variables (including {permalink}, {title}, {email}, {relative_date} and {edit_date}) and also displayed the actual entry. Currently our weblog (if you've not modified it since installing) only contains one post, which is why there is only one entry displayed on this page. So what happens if we have more than one entry in our weblog? Let's find out – we'll create some more example entries and get used to the create/edit screen while we're at it.
Creating and Editing
The eagle-eyes amongst you will have noticed that, in the above code, we used the "default_site" weblog when we were dragging in our entry using the weblog module. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to determine that the weblog that is installed by default is called "default_site" – so from our control panel, when we hover over "Publish" (top left) we see "Default Site Weblog" as well as "Edit Weblogs" – this makes perfect sense! For now, we wont bother with editing weblogs (we'll get onto that relatively soon) so click on "Default Site Weblog" and we'll be at the 'Publish New Entry' screen.
Now, we need to go ahead and fill in all the entry boxes – the title, summary, body and extended text – include text which will allow you to identify this entry as the first one we've created (so perhaps a title of "Our first entry" for example) – this way we'll be able to see the display order a little later.
Towards the top of this page you'll see a menu with 7 options (Publish form, Date, Categories, Options, Trackbacks, Pings, Show All) – you should be relatively familiar with these from the first part of this tutorial. Click on Categories and you'll be shown them! If you're coming from another CMS, you'll be familiar with these, if not, categories are basically a 'container' for your entries – they provide a very brief description of what your new entry is about. The default categories as you will see are "Blogging", "News" and "Personal". Select "Personal" for this entry and then click on "Submit" (which is next to "Preview" and "Quick Save" over on the right). You should be greeted by a "New Entry Submitted" message and a rendered version of what you've typed (known as the "View Entry" page.
Right then, let's see what you've done! Either go to "Templates > testTemplate > View Rendered Template" or in a new browser tab (you ARE using a tab-enabled browser aren't you? :) ) go to http://www.myWebsite.com/NotTheSystemFolder/index.php/site/testTemplate/ – you should be able to see your brand new entry sat above the default entry! Awesome!
Hey! Where's my "Extended Text"
Good point! Your "Summary" has also disappeared too. I guess you want them back? Well let's finish this mammoth tutorial by finding out how to go about doing just that. As you will probably have guessed, your summary and extended text haven't 'vanished' – it's just that our template doesn't actually tell EE to display them when we view it. So, let's navigate to our Edit Template screen (Templates > testTemplate) and make a few minor amendments as follows:

 {exp:weblog:entries weblog="default_site"}
{title}

 By {author} {relative_date} ago

{summary}
 {body} {extended}
Last Edited: {edit_date format="%Y %m %d"}

 {/exp:weblog:entries}

So nothing major here – the semantics aren't exactly spot on, but I've put in those extra tags just to highlight what we've done. So if we save and view that, you'll now see that for the article that we created, the summary and extended text are displayed! Perfect! One final thing which will help us later on in this series is for us to display which category our entries are in. The categories tag in EE is unique, simply due to the fact that an entry may be in multiple categories – it is a tag pair, and contains a single variable within them, thus:
{categories} {category_name} {/categories}
So you can use this bit of code wherever you like – I'm going to pop it at the end, wrapped in a link so that if a user clicks on the category name, they are taken to a page which shows them all of the entries which are within that category, which goes a little something like this:

 {exp:weblog:entries weblog="default_site"}
{title}

 By {author} {relative_date} ago

{summary}
 {body} {extended}
Last Edited: {edit_date format="%Y %m %d"}

Posted in: {categories} {category_name} {/categories}

 {/exp:weblog:entries}

Is it over? Tell me it's over!
OK, it's over. This is quite an epic tutorial, but when we run through exactly what has been achieved, I reckon you'll be quite pleased, we've:
- Discussed certain EE terminology
- How to view templates
- The magic of EE Tags
- Created a very basic template
- Utilised several EE variables, tag pairs and parameters
- Created some content from the Control Panel
- Made several cups of coffee
What Next?
We've still got plenty to do in the remaining three days – our current 'template' is a bit pants really, so we should probably spruce it up a bit (a LOT). We also need to learn how to create a fully-fledged template; modify settings in our control panel; learn how to use other modules correctly; and talk about some of the really useful features that EE possesses. We'll also delve into some of the modules and other features that aren't available in the free 'core' version of EE – so stay tuned over the course of the next three postings!

Using testimonials from happy clients in your marketing materials is a great way to demonstrate "social proof." Social proof is a psychological mechanism by which people look to the actions of others to make a decision. So, if you have lots of people talking about how your services improved their lives in some way, your prospects will start to think more highly of you.
A good example of social proof is the product rating system on websites like Amazon.com or Citysearch.com. Say you are looking for something (books, hotels, restaurants, etc.), and find two comparable options, one with an average 3-star review and one with an average 4.5-star review. You're more likely to pick the one with the higher rating based on what other people have said. That's social proof in action.
Why Client Give Testimonials
Testimonials not only help Amazon.com sell more books or Expedia.com book more hotel rooms, they can also help you sell your services by highlighting other people's successes and results through working with you.
For clients to give you testimonials, you need three things:
- Great service that leaves clients happy
- An easy way to collect client testimonials
- A reward system to thank clients who share their thoughts
Here are a few ways to collect testimonials from clients.
Method #1: Send A Client Testimonial Request Form or Letter
Send prospects a letter stating something to the following: "I'm putting together a list of testimonials from satisfied clients. Would you take a few minutes to tell me what you thought – good or bad – about my services? I look forward to learning what you liked, but I also welcome any suggestions you might have."
Give prospects an easy way to return the form. If you ask them to mail it back, provide a self-addressed stamped envelope. If you ask them to fax it back, provide the fax number clearly on the form.
Be sure to include a signature section that asks permission to use their comments in your marketing materials. For instance: "You have my permission to use my comments in your ads, brochures and other promotions used to market your services."
To boost response, you can also mention that if they complete the form, you will send them a "thank you" gift.
Method #2: Collect Photos and Videos During Celebratory Moments
Carry a digital or video camera to capture live pictures and comments. For instance, if you hold a live workshop, collect a few pictures or comments from participants during breaks. If you are holding negotiations or a new product is about to launch, be ready for the final celebratory moment afterwards.
Before you can use these photos or videos, make sure to have your client sign a short release form stating you have permission to use their photos in your marketing materials.
Method #3: Use a Client Feedback Phone Line
Advertise a client feedback phone number on your website. When clients call in, they'll hear a short recorded message encouraging them to leave comments. They can then leave a message stating their name, their comments, and permission to share their comments with company staff and in your marketing materials.
You can then use these audio recordings as testimonials on your website, in ads or by another hotline for prospects to call in and listen to "what our clients are saying about us."
Reward Clients Who Give You Testimonials
After you've collected a testimonial from a happy client, be sure to thank them because they are not only sharing their thoughts with you, they are also granting you permission to use their comments and picture in your marketing materials. In other words, they are helping you out considerably. Potential gifts ideas can include a free report or product, a discount on additional services, a gift card to a local store or restaurant, or free services from another vendor.
Client testimonials can be a powerful way to demonstrate your expertise and credibility as part of your full marketing strategy to build a case for why your prospect should hire you. Not everyone finds testimonials believable or persuasive, so use them as needed.

an example of 'cat and mouse' game. A term I known from IM Silman's article : It means, kill helpless opponent slowly, don't take any chances ;)
I hope that lower rated players (all of us included !) will stop doing rash things after they win material, and instead, slowly improve position until finally we ready to finish the game.
Thx, C & F appreciated !
@ learnateverygame , Thanks! Ifeel the same way. I usually expect my opponent to resign when he's a rook down, although I've played some 1800+FIDE players OTB who refuse to resign until its a checkmate in #1. Makes me wonder how badly they think I will blunder a winning position.
Here is an endgame Q+pawns vs Q+pawns&passpawn.
We had another game ,using KID, a line I am very familiar with. I actually think he was winning at one point, but didn't capitalize on it.
@learnateverygame , That's cool, I like to play the hunt variation against alekhine's :).
4.Nxd5 looks very pointless to me, also 6.c3, 8.0-0 (castling under attack), 9.Re1 (no minor pieces can cooperate with the rook along the e file; moreover it is short and will become even shorter after ...e4), 14.b3 (only weakening queenside light squares with no obvious purpose. 14.g4 instead threatens to opens the e file for the rook and in case of 14...g6? White have 15.d3!), 19.Ba3 (giving up the exchange with no compensation), 21.Kxe1 (blocking the rook on e2 where it is nothing more than a possible target), 25.Bd4 (dooming the bishop to inactivity from now on and forfeiting the endgame, as White's c pawn that gives White chances on the queenside is now tied to the bishop's defense).
Your opponent wasn't practically putting up any fight. It was a good decision of yours not to force the game.
However you could have also played some moves differently. 14...a6 is not a good idea because you have the center and the initiative, and all you have to do is to fully mobilize and crack your opponent. 14...Nd7 is much better, with ...Rae8 and ...Ne5 to come. 15.Nb5? is pointless as a "threat" for White as it further compromises his king safety, and should White exchange on d6 you get an extra central pawn, and Black - two wasted tempi.
please analyse my game. fried liver attack. cheers
@ marco : your opponent I think made a blunder a lot, as missing Nxf7, hangs the d4 knight.
Well, against lower rated player, fried liver attack may work, but against people with 1700++, its likely to fail.
Cheers, have a foster !
@ glex : thanks for the feedback, after seeing your response, now I certain that Nb5 was a wasted threat. Thanks !
@Ryan : itu Rc4 I didn't expect. Now I know 1 more trick in endgame :) for me I think taking on c5 was mistake as he doubles his c pawn on an open file, which is terrible weakness, and I think if you can manouver the knight to attack the dark bishop or force him to exchange, his c4 and c5 pawn will be goner :D
game bagus !
Lol, I can't get enough of this. I love when I pull off a scholarsmate! Definitely my favorite scholarsmate pattern. And please note, my rank is not accurate; It has been a long time since I played bullet, and I have improved since, therefore my bullet rating is lower than it should be.
This is not actually the Scholar's Mate. This is the Parham Attack, or the Wayward Queen Attack as it is also known. GM Hikaru Nakamura is a grandmaster that has studied this opening and has played it successfully.
It is an opening that, although developing the queen early, forces Black to defend instead of seeking more active counterplay. 3.Bc4 should be met by either 3...g6 creating kingside dark squares' weakness and comitting to a kingside fianchetto, or by 3...Qe7/3...Qf6 which slows down Black's development. A common idea for White is to develop his king's knight to e2 instead of f3, which gives White different options for handling the center and/or preparing an attack.
Very interesting opening, not very conventional but with challenging themes for both sides. I used to play it often before I gave up 1.e4 in favor of 1.d4.
Here are three games I played with this opening a long time ago:
thanks for previous analysis.
please check this game and give advice. I have new improved audio so i am audible please like video if you like my annotation.
5 minute chess with IMPROVED AUDIO. At last i worked out how to capture my audio at a high enough quality for youtube. On the other hand I messed up my first game with good audio in a sicilian that sort of turned into a french opening. I then chose not to castle but to push my H pawn for an attack. I paid dearly.
@ marco : I think you made a mistake by letting your bishop on a6 to be traded, as you need some activity, and you launch one of those desperate attacks (I have done that b4, and failed sometimes) which won't work, because he had 2-3 pieces to defend that, while the only thing that attack his king is your rook and pawn, so thats doomed to fail. I think its better not to trade pieces when you're not fully developed, and the 'I expect the opponent to blunder' and 'he had to take eventhough he's not obliged to' disease affects us all, so just trained more, and I think you can get better (all of us can)
a game (2 min) with some tactical puzzle later :
@learnateverygame cheers for the comments. i will train.
I got it! I'm going to give a hint.
"The bishop has nothing to do with the shot."
@Glex thank you very much about playing the Parham attack. I have been playing this one for a while, just thinking it was a fairly effective line. Now I know the true name and application in a couple scenarios.
how can i improve against this opening. i was lucky my opponent blundered but b4 that surely there is an improvement on e6. Or did i make a mistake b4 that?
For convenience, here's the game:
By the way, Nf6 was the blunder. Instead, d6, a6, Nc6, or perhaps even e5 would have been better. Also, white could have won your queen with 16. Bd3 followed by 17. h3.
I've annotated another one of my recent OTB games:
The game was rich with various positional ideas, but the play was far from perfect. We both made mistakes and this is what makes it a nice learning experience. Check it out if you're into the French defense.
As usual, most important moves are followed by comments and explanations in the game-viewer.
Though this is a game against the computer, I feel proud of this game because I was able to win it even though I had to make my moves quickly
Here is one of my recent wins as Black. Although when I played this game I was rated 1251, it's only because I had several "time-out" wins. I am guessing right now I'm actually a 1000-1100 rated player.

The Official Online RBS 6 Nations Store is open. The store has everything you need to get behind your team during the RBS 6 Nations, plus the store is now fully stocked with a much wider range of rugby merchandise.
The Saracens fly-half kicked just three points in the match as Wales destroyed England in the second half – and Farrell revealed he's determined not to make the same mistakes again.
"When I got back home I watched it straight away," he said.
"I wanted to get it out of the way and learn from it. Every game is an opportunity to make yourself a better player by watching it back and seeing what you did right and wrong.
"It was no different with that game, even though it was gutting to watch. I've looked back at it and tried to take what I can from it but you have to move on and get ready for what's ahead of you.
"I was gutted after the game and I was drained from it too. You just get away from it and start thinking about the next weekend and the next game, then every now and again it just kind of catches you and you feel gutted again."

Away from the supreme court's landmark decision on president Obama's health -- -- In general is here and we're talking about this again because there are some kind of unintended consequences of this plot and they seem to just.
Well it it just.
A blizzard of things that they didn't mean to happen right happening it's because nobody ever read a lot right right let's talk about Medicare Advantage to -- -- program critically important to seniors to get drugs to get the minute at a good cost.
It's one of their.
Few programs in Medicare and it's actually has the private sector involvement in obamacare puts -- knife in the heart.
This program for people who were low income because it grades these programs and to the degree that you get a high grade you also get more money we'll -- not the program for the low income people tend to go into.
So there's a real concern now -- maybe Medicare Advantage won't work it all under Obama care we knew that it was -- hundred arrests.
But but this is really frightening for a lot of seniors on there and you know that 3% surtax on investment income many people -- you know you know that.
And now let's talk about this university -- -- coverage on the kids is the Catholic university and -- in Ohio that it does not all kids that go to school there but they're saying look look -- an ethical problem first of all.
We do not want to sponsor -- pay for birth control we just don't wanna do it and number two.
We realize that our prices are gonna go through the roof right we can't afford this under Obama -- well guess what if this Catholic university can't afford obamacare neither can you put -- -- -- -- hearing that from small businesses that they are sitting on -- hands as they don't know what's gonna come down the -- Speaking of which -- -- -- don't like tonight welcome I would have paralyzed on gonna talking more about slender one of our very favorite topics in the world.
How does the government get into your pocket and what in the heck are they doing with that money.
We'll tell you have growing getting away -- it's.

Today's Daily Mail features extensive coverage of a House of Delegates bill passed yesterday that would eliminate a Charleston ordinance limiting customers to one handgun per month with a 72-hour waiting period.
Dave covered the House floor session yesterday, which included a half hour of debate on the bill. Only four delegates voted against the bill, and three of those were from Kanawha County: Nancy Guthrie, Meshea Poore and Danny Wells. All three spoke against the bill on the floor. From Dave's story:
Delegate Nancy Guthrie said she thought the Legislature was headed down a "slippery slope." No law enforcement agency called for the bill, and no one said the Charleston ordinance wasn't working, she said.
Poore, who represents downtown Charleston and surrounding neighborhoods, said Cabela's knew the law when it came to Charleston and other businesses in Charleston feel safer with it in place.
"Think about the mom-and-pop shops: Bluegrass Kitchen, Thelma Fay's," Poore said. "These individuals are businesses as well. They're affected if people don't feel comfortable coming into their restaurants because of the crime on the street."
For my story, I talked with Charleston Mayor Danny Jones about his thoughts on the bill. He said he wonders if delegates bothered to read the legislation before voting on it. Jones said he believes many Democrats would have voted for the bill, but were afraid of losing ground to Republicans. The GOP picked up 11 seats in the House of Delegates following November's elections, bringing the grand total in that body to 46.
Jones points out the bill would have much greater implications for Charleston than just removing its handgun purchasing ordinance.
Jones said the bill, if it becomes law, would require cities to allow gun stores to set up shop in any residential neighborhood if the city already has carved out a zoning exception for another business.
He said the legislation also would allow citizens and out-of-state organizations to sue the city over any perceived violation of state gun laws. If the city would lose the lawsuit, taxpayers would be required to pick up the tab for all related expenses.
Jones said the city's crime rate and drug problem likely would get worse if the handgun restriction disappeared.
However, he is more concerned about a provision in House Bill 2760 that would allow any person who believes their Second Amendment rights have been infringed by a municipality to take the city to court.
The law also would allow organizations, such as the National Rifle Association, to sue the city on its members' behalf if the organization believes the city has violated any state gun law.
Jones said if the city should lose a gun case, the law would required the city to pay all the plaintiff's costs, including attorney fees, expert witness fees, court costs and compensation for lost income.
There is no provision in the bill, however, to reimburse cities for court expenses if they should win a lawsuit.
That bill now must go before the Senate. It was introduced in today's floor session and referred to that body's government organization and judiciary committees. The Daily Mail will continue to cover this important issue, so be sure to check back for each day's lunchtime rundown. Until tomorrow, folks.

Your 10 Essential Cookbooks, and Why They Still Matter
Food52's Editorial Assistant (and college student) Brette Warshaw is curating her very own first kitchen -- and she needs your help. Last time, you helped her start a knife collection. Today: The cookbooks every First Kitchen needs, and why.
I'm the first of that generation: the generation that grew up with computer class in grade school, that got cell phones for their thirteenth birthdays, that played video games after school and ate Cookie Crisp for breakfast. You thought we were spoiled, ruined -- that our brains would turn to mush. You were worried we'd lost all values, that we were glued to our laptops, that things like pens and paper and books were irrelevant, useless, and tired.
So why, after asking you about cast iron pans and knives, did I ask you for your 10 essential cookbooks?
I asked you because to me and my generation -- the Twittering, Facebooking, Youtubing, Pinteresting, brain-turned-to-mush generation -- cookbooks still matter.
They, like a seasoned cast iron skillet or the sharpest Santoku, are things I will covet even past the days of my Second or Third or Fourth Kitchen, when my shelves are lined with egg cups and porridge bowls and vintage salt shakers. I will continue to page through them and to grin, to stare at them in the aisles of bookstores, to run my hands along their covers and feel their weight in my hands.
The question is: why? Why, when there are dozens of gorgeous cooking ebooks and apps, countless blogs, and when a website like FOOD52 exists, are cookbooks still essential?
They, of course, are reminders of the past; they capture what one person, or group of people, was cooking in a certain place and time. Yeah, that's cool. But as much as they're about what they did -- those accomplished chefs, bakers, and home cooks -- they're tanglble proof of what I can do.
I can. I can. In a world where the future is uncertain, where definitions are changing and lines are blurring, where the forks and spoons and knives of life are present and unavoidable, the words "I can" are powerful. If I follow these steps, I can make Julia Child's Beef Bourguignon. I can make Dorie Greenspan's chocolate éclairs. I can make Yotam Ottolenghi's tempura. With some kitchen twine and courage, I can even make The New York Times' turducken.
And now, thanks to you, I know which cookbooks will line my First Kitchen -- at first, maybe only on this printing, but soon, for real. Some are classic, some are new, but all are about the future: you've shown me what I can do, and now, when I get the right tools for my First Kitchen, what I will do.
So, below, I present to you the final list of The FOOD52 10 Essential Cookbooks – and the opportunity to get a printing of all of them from Ideal Bookshelf. If you do own any of these, spend some time today paging through them, bookmarking them, even writing in them. They're proof of what you've done -- and what you can do, and will do.
Joy of Cooking by Irma S. Rombauer
Mastering the Art of French Cooking by Julia Child, Louisette Bertholle, and Simone Beck
How to Cook Everything by Mark Bittman
The Silver Palate by Sheila Lukins and Julee Russo

Why do cookbooks still matter to you?
As usual, I'll be pinning everything I'm coveting to my First Kitchen Pinterest board, so check it out!
Next time, I'll be covering cutting boards, and I could use your help! Email me at firstname.lastname@example.com with your First Kitchen recommendations -- your favorite tools, your favorite cookware. All wisdom is appreciated.

I'm actually obsessed with Baking with Dorie Greenspan, its just so much better than googling a random cupcake recipe. There's a story, there's the feeling that there is some one teaching you how to bake. Plus it feels more authentic when you crack the spine of that new book, or it automatically opens to an old standby.

I love the Canal House Cookbooks!

I lean towards cookbooks that inform on many levels. I find James Peterson's books meet that criteria. Hazan and Hesser meet the criteria. Patricia Wells' books are very good. Jamie Oliver - when a English bloke had the #1 selling Italian cookbook in Italy that says something. Judy Rodger's Zuni Cafe is another cookbook that teaches in a very pleasant manner. Bittman's books are like having an old set of the Encyclopedia Britannica around – great and succinct resource. I bought the Balthazar cookbook first and foremost because of the way it felt in my hands and then discovered the book was very informative. However, one good cookbook doesn't mean they will all be good. Alice Waters' "Green Kitchen" was as disappointing as the earlier books were great – think she phoned that one in or at the very least it was a conference call.
Interestingly, The Silver Palate showed a much different and fun path then Mastering the Art of French Cooking and the Joy of Cooking books. I think that book was a major paradigm shift in the way people thought about cooking – no right way – no wrong way but your way with some guidance. Having said all that – a cookbook, glass of wine, a rainy sleeting day, nonchalant fire in the fireplace and a list of things to do completed – priceless.

The Silver Palate is amazing, especially the baking end of it. But, still, my greatest influence has been Jacques Pepin and Beard on Bread. Both give you the concept, the instruction, and the ability to improvise.

I have nine of these cookbooks, the only exception being "Plenty." The list is fairly strong, but "Plenty" is a stretch, too new and too untested. And the inclusion of "Around my French Table," as excellent as the book is, might be a reflection of including something that is recently published. Additionally, the "Silver Palate," as fun as it was when published, is a quixotic choice; are we still cooking Chicken Marbella?

Ginette Mathiot's "I Know How to Cook" is one of my favorites, my sister gave me a copy after high school graduation and it made me feel like such a grown-up cook! Also, Robuchon, and anything by Sanjeev Kapoor for Indian cuisine.

This might be going to far as this pick is most useful if you are interested in canning, but I absolutely love Eugenia Bone´s Well Preserved. The actual recipes are creative, sophisticated, very easy to prepare and probably easy to find subsitutes for the home canned ingredients. No book has taught me more about cooking or has improved my cooking so dramatically. Not all the recipes for putting up food involve hot water bath or pressure canning.
Re: Plenty, I waited so long to get the book and when I finally did I was so entranced by it, but I am now having a hard time getting into it.

Recipe by thedailygourmet
"The traditional Caprese salad is modified to pasta form. The mozzarella used is a fresh mozzarella, if you use the brick style, it will not be the same. If you can't find the pearlini mozzarella, use the cieglini and cut it in half. Regular rotini pasta can be used but the cooking time will be different."
Watch video tips and tricks
1 1/2 cups rotini pasta
3 tablespoons pesto, or to taste
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1/4 teaspoon granulated garlic
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 cup halved grape tomatoes
1/2 cup small (pearlini) fresh mozzarella balls
2 leaves fresh basil leaves, finely shredded
Yum, Yum, Yum – we thoroughly enjoyed this pasta salad made with tomatoes and basil from our garden. I mixed this up in the morning to give the flavors time to marry, with the exception of the basil. I added the basil about 30 minutes before serving so that it would be fresh. This is an outstanding salad with lots of flavor. It will be repeated in our house. Thank you, blondeprincess, for sharing your recipe!
Delicious! We made a double batch and had this as an entre.

Series: Evolution Basics (35 entries)
Written by BioLogos Fellow of Biology Dennis Venema, this series of posts is intended as a basic introduction to the science of evolution for non-specialists.

Written by BioLogos Fellow of Biology Dennis Venema, this series of posts is intended as a basic introduction to the science of evolution for non-specialists.
This week's Origins News Roundup features highlights from a recent conference of evangelical theologians, exciting human fossil finds, tell-tale lice, and a few words from the Pope.
Where is human evolution going? Where has human evolution been? A roundup of stories from the past few weeks.
Once we recognize that no one takes the text literally, and that we have often failed to account for the details in the text regarding the time of day, we can begin anew to try to understand the text as an ancient text rather than as a modern one. As such, we must begin with the idea that the text operates in the world of omens, not the world of physics and astronomy.
Join astrobiologist Stephen Freeland for a look into the nature of information and the origins of life on earth. (These posts were originally published as a paper in the ASAs academic journal, PSCF, and are reprinted here with permission.)
This series, by Old Testament scholar Richard S. Hess, was first published as an appendix to Christian Apologetics: A Comprehensive Case for Biblical Faith (Downers Grove: IVP Academic; Nottingham: Apollos, 2011).
The Galápagos Islands were not a distinct "center of creation," but a workshop for evolution in which an ancestral species made it to the yet uncolonized island and underwent a massive degree of speciation to adapt to the environment of the island. This is precisely what one would expect if the species of islands had arisen by evolution.
We need to hear stories from others who have wrestled with evolution and Christian faith. What arguments made them change their views on science? How did they hold fast to their relationship with God? The essays in this series will eventually comprise a book, provisionally titled, "Evolving: Evangelicals Reflect on Evolution."
In our current culture, we're defined by our jobs. It's having a vocation. I wanted to shift away from that. I didn't want to be a doctor first and foremost, or a scientist, but one who praises God.
BioLogos interim web editor Emily Ruppel recently traveled to Boston for the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) conference, where she took an afternoon off from lecture-going to catch up with Doug Lauffenburger, head of the biological engineering department at MIT and a member of the American Scientific Affiliation.
Although committed to the principle of sola Scriptura, Calvin recognized that the Bible would have been written in terms its original recipients would have understood. Calvin inherited the medieval cosmology of his time, a way of viewing the world heavily influenced by Greek thought and one which was about to receive shocks from astronomers such as Copernicus and Galileo. But not just yet.
This ongoing series written by historian Ted Davis begins with a brief synopsis of his personal background, and then goes on to reveal his passion for debunking "the now-common view that the history of science and Christianity is one of ongoing, inevitable conflict."
This series by Denis Alexander reflects on advancements in genomics as well as their theological implications. He focuses on the relatedness of hominin genomes, arguing that this does not interfere with the image of God in humans. The image of God depends more on the capacity for relationship and covenant, not on a list of particular physical qualities. He then discusses why the recent studies of genomics provide "no grounds for genetic determinism."
In this five-part series, David Williams responds to the book The Magician's Twin: C.S. Lewis on Science, Scientism, and Society by John West and the Discovery Institute, showing that C.S. Lewis was a very complicated thinker whose views are hard to line up exactly with any camp in the current debates over the compatibility of Christian faith and evolutionary science.
If God himself is willing to die, particularly in such a gruesome way, then perhaps we should at least consider the possibility of God allowing the death of other creatures, too. But would this really be compatible with what we know of God through Scripture?
In this series, we reexamine the claim made by Intelligent Design proponent Michael Behe to have found a limit to "Darwinian" evolution in light of recent results from the laboratory of Richard Lenski.
The debate is often not about evidence, but about making sure that others do not transgress our interpretive boundaries and insist that we're wrong. We've bitten from the tree of knowledge and we love its taste.
The BioLogos Foundation explains to the findings of the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE) project and responds to the claims that its discoveries challenge the theory of evolution, especially regarding so-called "junk DNA".
The Denisovans, an extinct hominid group that interbred with modern humans, made the news again lately with the publication of a more detailed study of their genome. One of the many interesting findings was that the Denisovans share the same chromosome 2 fusion that modern humans have.
Towards the end of the last school year, the Tennessee legislature passed the Teacher Protection Academic Freedom Act, a law that became more popularly known as the "Monkey Bill." I was doing research in a Tennessee high school biology classroom the morning that I learned that the bill had passed.

User Tip: If you're unsure of your vehicle type, you may skip the machine type selection box.
Why would you run from store to store or spend hours searching online for motorcycle tires when you can find exactly what you need at Rocky Mountain ATV/MC? Quite simply, no one has the selection of motorcycle tires and street bike tires we have, at the prices we do. We carry top brands like Dunlop motorcycle tires, Michelin motorcycle tires, Bridgestone motorcycle tires and Metzeler motorcycle tires.
The kind of tire you need depends on the kind of riding you do. Will you be riding on or off the road? Will you be racing, cruising or touring for a long period of time? No matter what or where you'll be riding, Rocky Mountain ATV/MC.com has the motorcycle tires and street bike tires you need and we've made it easy to find them on our website. For example, if you have a dirt bike, simply click on the "Dirt Bike" tab at the top of our website then click on the Dirt Bike Tires and Wheels" tab on the left which will take you to our "Tire Finder" section. Once you enter the make, model and year of your bike, a variety of bike tires will display for you to choose from. It's just that easy.
We're the experts on knowing which tires are required for the different types of riding. We know for sport bikes, a dual compound Z rated tire that provides an optimal grip when turning is ideal. If you love to cruise the strip or boulevard, tires with a heavier compound like the Michelin Commander II is best and if you're a touring cyclist, make sure you choose street bike tires that will endure a lot of mileage and have a wider tread.
Don't waste time and money searching for motorcycle tires and street bike tires that will fit your bike and are the best value. You can always rely on Rocky Mountain ATV/MC.com to have exactly what you need at the lowest prices and fastest shipping.

These tires are excellent and provide plenty of grip and feedback. In less than 50 miles I was already dragging the foot pegs. Highly recommended for the Suzuki M109R. The 250/40 fits perfect on the stock rear rim

When I order tires for my Wing I check all the dealers but I always come back to Jake Wilson because they always have the best prices for the brand of tires I use. Shipping is outstanding I ordered a rear tire yesterday (Thanksgiving Day) and this morning got an email that it has been shipped.
