World Championship: third win for Anand
Update: video added.
After winning the 6th match game today, reigning world champion Viswanathan Anand increased his lead even further. Three points down, challenger Vladimir Kramnik finds himself in a hopeless situation half-way the match.
Before the game Anand was leading 3.5-1.5 and everybody wondered: would Kramnik go for a win, or would he follow the advice of Kasparov, who said "he should just worry about surviving [...] after such a blunder in game five, then decide on a game plan for the final six games"?
Following the opening of the sixth round, it appeared that Kramnik was having similar thoughts as Kasparov's, when he went for the Classical Nimzo-Indian with 4?¢'Ǩ¬¶d5 and 6?¢'Ǩ¬¶Qf5. However, it turned out that Anand himself was in the mood for more than just a quiet ending.
The Indian avoided the ending with 7.Qb3 and two moves later he brought an interesting novelty, again taking the initative as it comes to opening theory. This time Kramnik reacted quicker than in previous games, but still he found himself in a slightly worse ending around move 15.
And then Anand just outplayed Kramnik. His advantage got bigger, he won a pawn, he won another one and easily countered his opponent's threats that weren't really serious threats anyway. His pieces seemed to lack coordination, but Anand managed to untangle and convert his material quite elegantly.
And so we're suddenly left with the second half of the match still to be played, but nobody believes it will be a real fight anymore ?¢'Ǩ'Äú the general consensus is that Anand has won the match today. For the first time he actually smiled several times during the press conference.
There were a few more photographers than in game 2-5, because...
...former world champion Anatoly Karpov (left to UEP President J. Resch)
came up on stage today to play the first move
Here's the sixth game of the match, co-commented by IM Merijn van Delft and by your editor-in-chief:

@ Tim
"I think it is far less important under which organisation the match is held (PCA, FIDE etc) than the identity of the players. The fact that FIDE held ?¢'ǨÀúWorld Chess Championships?¢'Ǩ'Ñ¢ in 2002 and 2004 which went to Ruslan Ponomariov and Rustam Kasimdzhanov respectively does not mean those two were or have ever been considered by the general chess public to be the rightful chess world champions. (While they are both excellent players, they are clearly not in the same class as the two players currently duelling in Bonn)."
The organization DOES matter. Both players are superior, but had a chance to partipate in these FIDE tournaments to prove it. Anand did, Kramnik didn't. In fact you forget that Anand won one of them!! They are superior players no doubt, but the organization DOES matter. Kramnik was not even the second best player when he played Kasparov. He had lost matches to Kamsky and Shirov and was cherry-picked. This split was shown to be disastrous for chess. You think it would be better for Kramnik to continue to hijack the title outside of FIDE? I think the blip in history of the Knockouts was a reaction to the terrible turbulence Kasparov created when he bolted. What was FIDE to do? There was a match between Karpov and Timman, but that was not accepted. The entire match cycle had been upset.
I believe given the circumstances we have come to a situation where the cycle is almost completed. However, a Kramnik victory would be disastrous for chess... not because he is no longer the strongest player, but because of the turmoil that would succeed it. With more rankling between Kramnik and Topalov and/or Kamsky, Kramnik is better removed from the equation... or at least the time being. We are in need of calm and stability instead of more of the same turmoil.

I agree completely, love your site, keep up the good work.

but Fide is still messing around.
let's say Anand wins and will be the 15th worldchampion.
normally all the other players should get a fresh and equal chance to become the new challenger. but we see that Anand still has to beat Kamsky or Topalov.
Kramnik, Leko, Ivanchuk and carlsen will have to work for 2 or 3 years and Topalov only needs to beat Kamsky (which he will) to get a new chance. this advantage is wrong.
I think that human seconds are all the more valuable in this era of information overload. Two seconds, one for white-side and the other black-side preparation, can go through and sort out all the analytic mess spit out by Fritz/Junior, and present the gist of it to the players. It is best for the players to keep their minds fresh and free of all the clutter during the championship.

Dear Peter and Willem van Dalen,
I am somewhat disappointed that both of you didn't bother to read my comment which immediately preceeded your comment and in fact rendered them totally useless.
willem van dalen on 22 October 2008 9:36 AM the following statement is not correct because the possibility of 49?¢'Ǩ¬¶..Re3+ !
(47. Bg7+ Kf5 48. Qxh7+ Ke6 49. Bxe5 and Black cannot take the bishop because of Qh8+.) [Doggers/Van Delft]
peter on 22 October 2008 10:14 AM willem, it is correct. after 50.Kf2 Rxe5 Whiet has 51.Qg6+ winning the knight on b6.
end Quote.
I agree with Andrej that FIDE is stil messing around with world championship. However, I don't agree with Toplaov winning. Never underestimate Gata Kamsky. He is a real fighter. I am quite confident that he will beat Topalov and play Anand. When Anand beats him, it will be business as usual with the FIDE World Championship cycles. It will be wonderful to witnees an Anand-Carlsen championship duel in 2010.

You make some very good points about the problems in organisation that have damaged the chess world. It is a great shame that it has taken so long to pull things together.
But I think you misunderstood me a bit. I didn't say that the orgaization doesn't matter. What I said is that it matters less than who the players are completing in the match. And I'm talking about public perception here, not fairness. For example, suppose after this match, FIDE announced that they were going to hold an 'official' match between Adams and Radjabov for the "Chess World Championship". They are the official body of chess and they can do what they like (they have shown this many times in the past). But no one would take such a match seriously because Adams and Radjabov are not the best players in the world at the moment.
There are two different issues here: 1) what is fair? 2) who do people think is the best player in the world?. You are right that it was unfair that Kramnik played Kasparov instead of Shirov. We will never know what would have happened had Shirov played. However, Kramnik did play Kasparov, and he won. I do not know of anyone who disputes that Kasparov was the best in the world or shouldn't have been the world champion. By beating him, Kramnik demonstrated that he was - at that time and on that occasion- the better player. That's the beauty of a match - you can't argue with the result. Since playing Kasparov, Kramnik has played matches agains two outstanding players: Topalov and Leko, and neither could beat him. That is why so many people think that, until someone beats him in a match, he is still the wold champion. I hope Anand does beat him. I am not a Kramnik supporter and I agree with you that it will be much better for chess if Anand wins. But I just don't belive that match play and tournament play are the same. On a good day anyone from the top 20 can beat anyone else in the top 20. You only find out who is the best by matchplay, IMHO.

There's obviously a strong case for Kramnik as champion, but I do not consider him the world champion of much of anything. Defending the title against Leko, when there were far better candidates like Anand and Kasparov basically robbed his title of any legitimacy. During Kramnik's supposed reign, Kasparov utterly dominated the tournament scene every year until his retirement. Kasparov is the world champion in my book, given the chaos of things, all the way until his retirement (except maybe for 2-3 years for Kramnik until it became obvious he would not give a rematch). After Kasparov's retirement, things for me become murkier still. I might concede what I feel to be the World Champion title to Kramnik, but Topalov won the best of the FIDE knockouts and is the only player to do so with a convincing resume and pedigree to be called world champ, so I give certain credence to that argument as well. I consider the Mexico tournament to be a sufficiently clear unification to claim that Anand has the title since that time.
Given the lack of outdistancing from the field of any two players, instead of the next World Championship being a match, I would love to see a 6 player quadruple round robin between Anand, Kramnik, Topalov, Carlsen, Ivanchuk, and a wild card of either Morozevich, Aronian, Rabjadov, (or for contractual reasons possibly Kamsky). After seeing those six slugging away at each other for twenty games each, the world would get beautiful chess and a deserving champion.
@ Guillaume
If Kramnik said what you stated, then I respectfully disagree with Kramnik. This match does not make the determination of who was the most important player of that generation. Players make their history on their own merits and Anand has done much more for the popularization of chess than Kramnik could ever dream. Chess in India, throughout Asia and developing world is blossoming in large part because of Viswanathan Anand. Millions of people are playing now because of this one man. I'm not sure what Kramnik can claim. He can claim to have beaten Kasparov and that is a good accomplishment, but in terms of overall importance Anand has had an immeasurable impact on the broad appeal of chess.
Your notion that this title would be more important than the 2007 is irrelevant. The unification cycle agreed that last year's tournament was a World Championship tournament. It doesn't matter which one has more prestige. Anand was the World Champion BEFORE the match. You not accepting the result does not make it false.
If you want to be technical Kramnik NEVER held the World Championship since Kasparov bolted from FIDE and had no crown to defend. It would be the same if Bobby Fischer (after forfeiting his 1972 crown) played someone else other than Anatoly Karpov and claimed that was the World Championship match. When Kasparov bolted, choose Kramnik and didn't give Shirov his match, we had this terrible problem. Kasparov admitted that he regretted this decision, but we are almost through it now. Kasparov did a lot of good, but also did tremendous damage to the game.
Chess will soon have a person who will not get bogged down in toilet politics, not shaking hands and other madness of the past 36 years. Anand is progress! Kramnik one of the strongest players, but has little broad appeal. If Kramnik wins it will be instant drama... not shaking hands with Topalov, more cheating accusations, more toilets, fighting with FIDE, arguing over conditions and venues, etc. We've had enough.

Media played hard on both, praising one at the cost of other. When Anand lost in critical games earlier with Kasparov or Karpov, he lacked the seconds & game preparation, unlike his competitors who were better prepared, further, Anand played a natural game, to a decisive play, than for draws, marked a sharp deviation. Anand's overall records in all the chess format make him a consistent player - unlike ONE off wins of Kramnik. Kasparov was unprepared, when he lost to kramnik, had kramnik agreed to re-match, then surely Kasparov would beat & flog him on chess board. Arrogance of Kramnik is evident that he gifted Anand 2007 Championship. Yes all players have their bad & good times, to speak excessive of them is poor case of judgement. In previous cases, Kasparov choose tournaments to play, while Anand was playing all in a row, so had good preparation time. This time, both players did their home work and it is opportunistic move of kramnik to take Anand's partner as his second....which is NOT ethical thing to do.... but today media is shy talking of ethics.... why Kramnik failed to win in previous games with Topalov {??} when the toilet controversy arised ?? Shows some dark play with Kramnik.... he plays good to the extent of his seconds advised him to play !! { bad humor !!}

Anand clearly prepared very well and he successfully uses d4 opening which he almost didn't use before. Kramnik is psychologically beaten thus blunders were made.
Good to see Anand's victory. The Russian should learn a lesson: Don't be proud of their chess glory too much!

Incomprehensible. We chess players must mourn for V.Kramnik, the best chess player of all times.His days are over.
"Man, I?¢'Ǩ'Ñ¢d love to hear what Leko is telling Kramnik after each match"
I can guess what he's telling him now:
"To change your mood, let's swap wives on the rest day." ;)
"If Anand wins the next two games in a row, does he overtake the 2800 barrier again on the unofficial ratings list?"
ONE more win with no losses should put him over. He's already 2796.8.
5 years 6 months ago
You're right. Most chess media is very Eurocentric and many reasons are found for why Kramnik is losing as opposed to reasons Anand is winning. Anand was true World Champion before the match but was not accepted. This will silence all doubters. There was a lot of talk about Kramnik's match play and that much was overstated. Kramnik has only the Kasparov victory to give him that claim. A draw with Leko and a draw with Topalov (in tiebreaks) certainly was not convincing enough to state his superiority in match play. Kramnik is losing because of preparation and because he has fallen off. Full stop.
The Russians are still the most powerful chess nation, but players around the world have narrowed the gap at the top. Asia represents the new power in terms of chess regions. It will create a wave of interest around the world and Anand represents this change.

Okay, got it: after my variation 21?¢'Ǩ¬¶ a5 22 Bd2 Ne4 23 cxb6! Nxd2 24 Rxc8 Nxc8 25 b7 Ne7 white plays 26 Rg3! (GM Dimitrov at Chessdom) and regains his piece keeping an extra pawn. Amazing how that silly looking kings rook decides the game here!
I can only hope that Kramnik?Ǭ¥s side wont start talking about some weird illness or another excuse.
Go Vishy.
Anand is not allowing him to play like KRAMNIK. Kramnik is a Chess genius , so is Anand. He is doing everything right at this moment , you have to feel sorry for Kramnik. Kramnik should not have said he lend the title and Anand is not as good as him in match play. That was his biggest mistake. You dont wound a tiger , every game it happens. Respect your opponent , complacency is not good. that is what happened to Kramnik. there head to head was 6-4 in favor of Kramnik in classical game, that shows they dont have much diff. Then why it happened ??
1. Anand have prepared supremely well
2. Anand is playing to his strength , sharp line , you just calculate and calculate :-)
there is no one who can calculate as fast as him except computer.
3. Not allowing Kramnik to be Kramnik
4. Playing for win , agressive , not afraid to take risk with Black

To Hektor,
Yes mate, i know. Topolov is offical No 1, as per the live rating Anand has dislodged Topolov already, it is just a matter of time ( May be a month or two ) he regains the title. The question here is why people can't accept a non european as a world champion, if a guy like Anand claims the world title beating the best players in the world( Mexico 2007), he still needs to prove his ability by playing againist Kramnik. I am glad you like the way Anand plays, we will have a great fight IF AND ONLY IF TOPOLOV qualifies to challenge the current World Champion.
I lose game one: "I wasn't comfortable in the playing hall."
I lose game two: "I had a cold."
I lose game three: "I was still recovering."
I lose game four: "I was psychologically readjusting."
I lose game five: "Okay, I have admit -- my opponent is nearly my equal."
Seriously, it's a good thing that Kramnik is actually a very good sportsman -- as is the victorious, glorious Vishy.
Topalov is just useless. Cannt beat Kramnik , then started saying he is using computers!!! Kramnik managed to defeat him even after forfeiting game 5!!
I like Kramnik , probabaly many people do like him. This two Anand and Kramnik is ambassador for this game. See how they accept defeat ......learn from them ......
God bless Anand and Kramnik............. I am Anand's fan though ...........
GO ANAND go...............
@Chessdrummer: Let me try to explain why people were not exactly ready to recognize Anand as the "true champion", and why they might very well recognize him as such if he wins this match. Even if we disregard the difference between a match title and a tournament title, the value of a World Championship title is pretty much worth the legacy attached to it. Right now, the title owned by Anand belongs to this legacy:
1. Anatoly Karpov (1993 - 1999)
2. Alexander Khalifman (1999 - 2000)
3. Viswanathan Anand (2000 - 2002, 2008-?)
4. Ruslan Ponomariov (2002 - 2004)
5. Rustam Kasimdzhanov (2004 - 2005)
6. Veselin Topalov (2005 - 2006)
It's a nice list of very good players, but you should compare it to the legacy attached to the present match:
1. Wilhelm Steinitz (1886 - 1894)
2. Emanuel Lasker (1894 - 1921)
3. Jos?ɬ© Ra?ɬ?l Capablanca (1921 - 1927)
4. Alexandre Alekhine I (1927 - 1935,1937 - 1946)
5. Max Euwe (1935 - 1937)
6. Mikha?ɬØl Botvinnik I (1948 - 1957,1958 - 1960,1961 -1963)
7. Vassily Smyslov (1957 - 1958)
8. Mikha?ɬØl Tal (1960 - 1961)
9. Tigran Petrossian (1963 - 1969)
10. Boris Spassky (1969 - 1972)
11. Bobby Fischer (1972 - 1975)
12. Anatoly Karpov (1975 - 1985)
13. Garry Kasparov (1985 - 2000)
14. Vladimir Kramnik (2000 - 2008)
Now that Anand is winning this match with such a maestria, I'm sure all Anand fans, including yourself, will understand the value of having Anand completing this list with a nice:
15. Viswanathan Anand (2008 - ?)
Also, you can be sure that if Anand wins this match in such a convincing way, what history will remember is not how Anand won two specific tournaments (in 2000 and 2007) out of all the tournaments he won in his carreer, but how he became the 15th World Champion by defeating (crushing?) the 14th World Champion.

Kramnik fans are very similar to their hero...
that they need hundred words to explain why their master is the champ.
Keep it up, you guys amuse me.
Oh well, let me rephrase for the kids then:
Kramnik was the champ, Anand will be the champ, long live the champ.
Is that simple enough for you, or is it still too difficult?
Of course you can look at a list of players and state they are legendary because one is viewing through historic lens. However, few would put any player in legendary categories when they are in the present. You only have legends when they retire. Anand will be considered a true legend when that time comes... sooner than later. Kramnik's fame is that he beat Kasparov and made 2800... full stop. He won a match against Kasparov, foiled a rematch and defended twice in seven years. He was not champion in 2008 by the way. Anand won the crown last year in 2007. Anand will be the only player to win the World Championship in three formats (as mentioned above). I'm sure Anand's record holds up with those players in that second list.
I agree with the point about knockouts, but Kramnik has not been convincing as a "legend" or as the 14th World Champion. His road has been... crushed by Kamsky...beaten by Shirov... historic win over Kasparov... draw with Leko... win in tiebreak over Topalov. Currently getting crushed by Anand. What's this about Kramnik being such a good match player??? His tournament play has been solid, but lately it has been unremarkable.

Congratulations to Anand for the great and attractive chess he has brought so far, which combines lots of challenging novelties with outstanding, precise play once the preparation phase is over ! If he wins, he will deservedly figure in chess history as the fifteenth world champion. By the way, when Kasparov quit he had already started to lose a little bit of his strength, so if he came back now he would probably no longer battle for the world title.
It's a pity Kramnik hasn't played his best chess, losing control of three games well before move 40. This has happened to other world champions, though, and no one has made fun of them for that reason (I'm sure Anand himself would be upset with some of today's comments on Chessvibes about his opponent !)
According to GM Illescas?¢'Ǩ'Ñ¢ analysis on the official site, today Kramnik produced 3 dubious moves in a row (17-19), and this happened in a kind of position he normally excels at (queenless middlegame). Maybe he took extra risks because of the format of only 12 games, maybe he was down after games 3 and 5, maybe he was impressed by yet another novelty from Anand, or maybe he?¢'Ǩ'Ñ¢s just lost his form. What matters most is that Anand has played extremely well, of course ! Still we shouldn't count Kramnik out completely. Remember the quick comebacks of Korchnoi in Baguio ?¢'Ǩ'Ñ¢78 and Karpov in Leningrad ?¢'ǨÀú86. And even if he doesn't make such a miracle happen, we may still witness some unforgettable games. I hope Kramnik will find back his best chess without trying to force matters, and offer us at least one elegant victory (and who knows, more).
@Daaim Shabazz: Kramnik already beat Topalov before the tie-break (the forfeited game was largely provoked by Topalov?¢'Ǩ'Ñ¢s ridiculous accusations), and he also played on a very high level against Deep Fritz. Apart from a period of illness, he has had an exceptional rating as well, so what more can you expect from a world champion ? To equal Karpov or Kasparov ? I will be glad to welcome Anand as a great and historical world champion if he wins this match, but we may have to wait for Carlsen or even much longer before anyone ever equals the career of the two K?¢'Ǩ'Ñ¢s, both match- and tournamentwise. What does set Anand apart from anyone, though, are his unique rapid skills.
@Daaim Shabazz:
I disagree with a few points. I still think the crown that Anand got in 2007 is far less important than the one he's about to seize now (or so it seems). I also consider that Kramnik won fair and square 6-5 over Topalov in their match, and that the tie-break is only the consequence of Topalov's outrageous behavior. That said, I understand your point, but I think you're a bit unfair to Kramnik, especially when you state that Kramnik's tournament play has been unremarkable lately. What about Dortmund 2007 and Tal Memorial 2007 ? Admitedly, his results since Mexico 2008 were not good, but it was the same for Anand as far as I know, and understandably so.
Anyway, if you insist in comparing Anand's record to Kramnik's, I heard that Kramnik had stated in an interview that this match would determine who of Anand or himself would be considered the most important player of their generation. So, there you have it. If Anand wins this, he is the most important player of the two.
It seems that some of Anand's fan never really accepted that many of us supporting Kramnik as a player were also, and most importantly, supporting through him the match format to decide of the world champion. We already have tournaments all year long no matter what. Why would anyone want to give up the tremendous clashes that only matches can offer?
I certainly hope that once Anand becomes the 15th world champion, he will demand to be beaten in a match by a challenger to lose his crown, and I will support him if he does.
As to now, I hope Kramnik pulls himself together. It's no fun if the match is already over...
Im glad Leko is in Kramnik?Ǭ¥s side this match, pitty no one has played e4 yet.

I am/was rooting for Anand, but it is clear that Kramnik is in poor form. It is a shame. The match should be much closer, needless to say. Even Anand's greatest supporters cannot believe that he is this much better than Kramnik.
Kramnik's seconds share the blame for inadequately preparing him for this match. He has definitely been "out-seconded"....
I think it is true that Anand has successfully steered the games into sharp lines. Not that Kramnik cannot play them, just that he would be more at ease in positional positions. The point is, Anand has controlled the nature of the games, and that is helping him a great deal.
A match Anand-Topalov (assuming he beats kamsky) will be a great one, very sharp. I would normally be rooting for Topalov, but not after the nonsense he pulled against Kramnik in the last match. Utter nonsense. So I would again root for Anand.

Putting this match and his opponents into a historical context looks much too early, since it is simply not over. Especially Kramnik?Ǭ¥s career is not finished at all. It will be interesting to see if - in case of losing this match- he can make up for the WCC title in the future. For this match he seemed to have done everything wrong (preperation, team) and is therefore unable to turn the match?Ǭ¥s dynamics in his favour after game 5.

Anand is clearly winnign, i didn't expect world championship to so one sided

so Kramnik has rheumatic problems maybe - that could explain his blunders, maybe?!?
5 years 6 months ago
Kramnik is so far from his best game....a shame, really. Although it is much because Anand is doing well on and off the board, obviously Kramnik is not at his best. In a sense, if Kramnik doesnt make a come back and this turns into a "match", it sort of ruins the match, historicly speaking. The really great matches wont be the ones that are too one-sided.
Geez, Anand won again..
Kramnik should listen to Kasparov.. And should have thought in this game about surviving instead of taking risks.
5 years 6 months ago
I think there are several reasons why Anand won
1. He relies on the computer whereas Kramnik relies only on creativity and no help from outside
2. Anand is lucky
3. Kramnik is sick
4. The match is too short...if it was 100 games long Kramnik would win
5. Anand plays tactical games whereas real chess is about long term strategy
I can't think of other reasons but I am sure Kramnik supporters would find some
5 years 6 months ago
see my earlier mail
3 points back is maybe to big
catalan won't show up nor does russian defense
what's up for Kramnik
he shouldn;t have disposed King Loek?
( second for complicated positions like this?)
Kramnik is really not the Kramnik I know...
He is piece of cake for Anand?! That is not normal, certainly not in matches like this...

looking forward to the press conference!! might be a major announcement from Kramnik

I like that Anand is winning, but I hate it that Kramnik blunders so much. I'd rather see him win after a long hard fight.

NUMBER 94. ATLANTA, GEORGIA. OCTOBER, 1898. On The Campus. We open the present year with an increase in the number of students, except in our lowest class. The approximate attendance Oct. 15 is: College, 35; normal, 140; preparatory, 65 ; sub-normal, 25 ; total, 265. The college department continues to grow, and bids fair to be the largest in our history. The years 1896-97, with an attendance of 30, and 1897-98, with 31, have so far been our best years in that respect. The present year bids fair to exceed them. Pres. Bumstead has not as yet fully regained his vigor, after the sickness of last May and June. It did not seem prudent for him to come to Atlanta just at present. We shall be glad to see him later, and anticipate that the colder weather will soon bring a complete restoration of strength. For the past two years our girls' dormitory, North Hall, has been uncomfortably crowded during the fall term. In order to relieve the pressure, the trustees have relaxed the requirement that the Senior Middle Normal class should board in the building, and they will not have to do so until after Christmas. It is an interesting fact that both Mr. Edward T. Ware and Mr. John H. Chase have entered Union Theological Seminary this fall. The fathers of these two young men worked here for years together, until President Ware's death. Both of the young men themselves have been in our service, Mr. Ware as Northern Secretary and Mr. Chase as agent for the quartet. And now, as graduates of Yale and Amherst respectively, they together enter this theological seminary. The proceedings of the conference held here last May are now being printed. The work is done in our own printing office. Prof. Webster spent twelve weeks of the vacation in the University of Chicago, mainly in the chemical and physical laboratories. Rev. Martin Post, who preached for us so acceptably the greater part of last year, is again supplying our pulpit. Our quartet last summer was composed of G. A. Towns ('91), J. T. Porter ('99), E. L. Simon ('00), and A. Sengstacke ('02). They were accompanied a large part of the time by Mr. Edward T. Ware, our Northern Secretary. The classes in the Stone Hall school rooms will miss the instruction, this year, of Messrs. Arthur Bumstead and George A. Towns. These two young men have done excellent work during their terms of service as instructors in this institution. For several years we have accepted the graduates of certain secondary schools to membership here, without examination, on the certificate of the principal of the school. Only schools which prepare for as high as Senior Preparatory or Senior Middle Normal are recognized in this way. The present year has brought us an unprecedented number of students, mostly in this way, for our higher classes. There are four new students in the Freshman class, four in the Senior Preparatory, one in the Senior Normal, and three in the Senior Middle Normal. It is not improbable that others also may enter these classes. Our Graduates. "73—At the summer meeting of our Board of Trustees the honorary degree of A. M. was conferred upon Miss Lucy C. Laney. Miss Laney was a member of the first normal class which graduated from this institution. She has been active since leaving here, partly as a student herself, and partly as teacher. She is now, and has been for a number of years, principal of Haines Institute, Augusta, a school 'which last year graduated seven from its college preparatory and eight from its higher English course. '76—The Georgia State College, in Savannah, of which Richard R. Wright is president, has this year opened its doors to girls as well as boys. Their year begins with a largely increased attendance. President Wright has been appointed paymaster in the army with the rank of Major. This does not conflict with his duties as president. '94—James W. Johnson, for the past four years principal of a public school in Jacksonville, Fla., passed a fine examination and was admitted to the Florida bar May 14. '94—Geo. A. Towns, for the past three years an instructor in the natural sciences and at the shop, in this institution, has entered Harvard University for further study. '94—The N. Y. Age of April 21 devoted a column to an account of the good work of the Florida Baptist College, and of its teachers. The president is N. W. Collier, and the teacher next in rank is Sarah A. Blocker, a former student of this school.

It fits my foot! Most of the paraffin baths I found are only for hand and elbows. Most of the baths are also too expensive for my fixed income. The HoMedics bath is super easy to use and I can let the paraffin melt while I am doing other things. The actual foot bathing is relaxing and a time for me to quiet my self and take in my gratitude's. It is well worth the effort to use.

.i walk into the garden at
3am, find death digging
his own grave in the middle
of my lawn, he says he's
dead to me now, he can
just feel it in his bones,
points at the mud and says
dirt is dirt
it can't pretend that it's
anything else,
oh and i found that peg you lost,
it was under the conifer,
climbs in covers himself and leaves
me standing alone
(keeps sending me postcards, i wish you were here)
.a mother says to her son
can you feel the world lodged
in your rib? do not tell
me you can't, it's right there
and let's not tell god
anything about this, let's give
him the silent treatment like
he's giving to us,
sometimes i wake up wanting
to shred myself into ribbons
tie me up in a bow and send myself
to your doorstep with no
return address and let you deal with it,
you're not listening and you're not
understanding, you're too busy
trying to read all the text, but
i can go days without speaking
one word, got a habit of holding my
breath diving into my own mind
for hours, blue bottomless pool
river veins with the bones of a dream
drifting through, some stuck on the
banks all dried up and thirsty, this
shark tooth reminds me of you so i
press it in hard, still not one single
drop, a baby raccoon floats by with
no life but wide eyes, i know you'll
pray the horned god sends him
straight to the sea, drown him out
with that voice that says maybe
next year when you search for
yourself, yo
.i like to feed things in
through my mind and then pull them
right out of my chest when they're
put it on paper and call it
a poem, feed it
back into the brain
and repeat, but
anxiety says just
let this stuff go -
cough up those words
that you've got in your
chest and dust off the
shelf in your lungs, feel
them one last time if you want
but please, send them away in
their poems, and quick
i'm real
sorry but
i'm just not
done with them
there's no
poetry drip
i can rip
from the back
of my hand
and my neck,
discharge myself
from this one
(chew it up, spit it out)
do you want me to make you an OC? ^^I haven't done this since 2012 or so, but I will offer free custom OCs for fun again ♥
BUT PLEASE. Let me know if the design I make for you is not going to be used.

I was super excited and happy to find out I was having a baby. This is our second but we also have been trying for almost 4 years. I apparently have been strugling with insulin resistance which is pre-diabetic and once I was on the medicine it seemed to line everything up and here I am almost 5 months pregnant My sister has PCOS and endometriosis severly. She was 31 before she finally concieved. Her son is a happy 3 year old now! She did have a miscariage two years ago but that was not related to the PCOS, per the doctors.
Wishing you the very best with your pregnancy.
This is a wonderful story of getting treatment for insulin resistance and then moving right in to a healthy pregnancy. I find that so many families deal with PCOS, diabetes, insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome and then struggle with getting pregnant. I hope that you are able to share your story with many others who are at the end of hope, thus enabling them to seek out the right kind of help and start or expand a family.
Wonderful news!
Thank you Jess.
I will continue to update as a go along on all of the boards. I have an appointment next week and will be happy to report that I have started to feel the baby move a little here and there. Not enough that my son or husband can feel it yet but enough to keep me from worrying about there being a problem. I couldn't be more happy at this point. While it came as a suprise to us it was a nice suprise and has caused us to change some of our plans for the upcoming summer but that's ok.
I'm so glad that you are feeling good about your pregnancy, that is great news. It's amazing how things work in life. Do keep us in the loop,
Beth - congrats!! Sounds like you have been through a lot but this is such a happy time for you. :-) Thanks for sharing your story and I look forward to learning more about you on here. Do you plan on finding out if the baby is a boy or girl? Best of luck!
The way i found out will always be a memory. Last summer i joined the gym, and lost 25 pounds. Around late august my face started to look so FAT. i brushed it off until my very outspoken boyfriend told me " baby your face is getting chubby" :( i felt so ugly. i noticed sex felt so uncomfortable and dredful. My boyfriend would joke with me and say your pregnant you should go get checked out. i always laughed at him in the face because i was on a birthcontrol shot. so i used that as an excuse as to why my face was getting fat and probably why sex wasnt fun anymore ( well for me ). So on october the 13th my friend i went out to grab a bite to eat and she jokingly told me i was pregnant too so i we decided to do a pregnancy test for fun. GOOD IDEA. i Found out i was pregnant and on top of that i was 3 months going on 4 months . I took it for fun and a very fun thing turned very serious. i was rushed with so many emotions i was in college im 19 what am i going to do ??? Thank god i have an AMAZING single mother who supports me 100% in whatever. im the only child so my mom was excited because the family was growing. im now 8 months and im having a baby boy and he such a busy lil baby already & i cant wait to meet his beautiful face. As a mom im going to strive and fight to give him the best life . im still in school and in a couple years i will have a degree in Economics and ill be the best mom i can be to my baby boy <3, GOOD Luck to you :)
Marie - loved hearing your story. Sounds like it was all quite the surprise!! I LOVE your attitude about your little man and how you are going to give parenthood your all. He is going to be a blessed little boy. School will be tough at times but you can do it!! It's going to be the best ride of your life. :-)
Thanks :) i appreciate it. School is already tough but i Know i can do it. Life wouldn't life if You didn't endure some challenges !
Excited to report that we went to the doctor on Monday and found out that we will be welcoming another precious boy to our family! As for my mom that will give her 6 grandsons! We were hoping for a girl but it was pretty obvious that this baby is a boy!
We are super excited and our 7 year old is excited as well. He was hoping for a baby brother. We have a lot of new changes to come in the next months. We have put our house up for sale and are planning to move in late June to a bigger house. Things are moving quickly for us and now we just have to finish getting all the baby gear that we need for this little one.
We have decided on a few names but at this time are leaning toward Harmon Patrick. If not I believe the middle name will stick but the first name will change.
Take care all for now.
Congrats on your big news! How wonderful to be welcoming another boy to the family. It must be pretty exciting planning the move to a new house as well. Keep us posted as things progress,
sometimes it does matter a person age.. i had my first some almost 3 years ago and now having my 2nd. i was right there with you. what am i going to do? i am not with the father and never was. i know right away i will be a single mom still love comes my way. i was so scared by i had my mom just like you. my mom raised me by her self and sisters. it was hard growing you but you learn that they gave you what you needed "love"... you will be a great mom and no matter what you do not need a man to say i am daddy because guess what in the long run the mommy always winds up to play both points in the child life... if you ever want to just chat you can email me or something... its a feeling like you never felt before when you see your child for the first time....
Hi all! I haven't been on here in quite a while, life has been busy. I wanted to throw out an update on our progress. I am now 32 weeks and starting to get nervous when I have to much time on my hands. We have completely moved into our new house and it's great. Still deciding on decorations but it's coming along...slowly! This weekend my cousin is graciously throwing us a baby shower since we have nothing left from our first son being we gave it all to our nephews when they were born.
The biggest exciting news was that when I went to the doctor two weeks ago they told me that I passed my glucose test so no gestational diabetes for me! Yay the metformin is doing it's job. I'm terrible at diets and just know that I would never be good at a diabetic diet. Hoping that the doctor will do at least one more ultrasound before I have the baby since we have not seen him since April. I really want a 3d one and hoping to schedule that when I go tomorrow. I am also hoping to schedule my c-section that day however I just have the feeling that no matter what day we schedule it for he will be here sooner. I am feeling the second week of August for some reason...is that weird? I think it's just because our older son was born 4 days before my 23rd birthday and if Harmon comes the second week of August it would fall just before my husbands 34th. Crazy how close the kids are with us on our birthdays.
Some other things have happened since the last time I was on here as well. I found out that my oldest sister is now expecting her second child and has passed the 12 week threshold so that's very encouraging for her. She was the one that had the miscarriage two years ago. This family is expecting lots of babies this year. I also have a cousin who is only about 4 weeks ahead of me and is scheduled to deliver her new baby boy around July 25th. Another cousin is expecting a couple weeks later as well......they always seem to come in packs I think!
Well Thanks everyone for the support and I will keep it updated. Hopefully better now.
I'm glad all is going so well for you. You're coming into the home stretch so hunker down and enjoy the ride. I can agree that they do seem to come in packs. one of my older brothers little girl was born in october, my younger brothers little girl was born in december the day after my birthday, and my baby girl was in february. needless to say it has been pretty eventful with so many little ones entering the family. I was convinced that i was going to go into labor early because of how active i was with work, but at 40 weeks i was still going so my doctor induced me. I hope everything continues to go smoothly as you near the end of your journey.
Hi I have pcos and was on birth control since 1999. Got off this past March to try to conceive as I am now 31. I am now 5 weeks pregnant. I was in complete denial because we gave up and then ended up pregnant. The initial thought of pregnancy scared me and ending up in the ER on Xmas day did as well. Doctors were off telling me I am 6 weeks (a week ago) and they couldn't see anything so I must have had a miscarriage. YOU know your body and I knew with my years of pcos there was no way I could've miscarried or even been that far along. After getting up the courage to go back to my old obgyn practice after my long time doc retired I was told everything is right on target! Super excited! Keep positive and make sure you don't allow any negative people in your space!

A damp location is a location, either exterior or interior, that is normally or periodically subject to condensation of moisture in, on or adjacent to the luminaire. Article 100 states these are locations often protected from weather and not subject to saturation with water or other liquids but may be subject to moderate degrees of moisture. These could include partially protected locations under canopies, marquees, roofed open porches and some basements, barns and cold-storage facilities, such as walk-in coolers, freezers and warehouses.
A wet location is one where the luminaire is subject to saturation with water or other liquids, such as in a vehicle washing area, or where the luminaire is mounted in an unprotected location and directly subjected to the weather. Underground installations and installations where concrete slabs or masonry are in direct contact with the earth are also considered to be wet locations.

This is a great and well made tool that does exactly what it is intended to do. No more trying to fit a fat wrench on to the nut on end pin jacks.
Wish I'd had this a long time ago.
This is a great little tool. I'm surprised it wasn't invented earlier. Prior to finding out about this wrench, I used regular wrenches that couldn't get a grip on thin nuts, the result being damage to my guitar's finish. I liked this tool so much I bought a second one.
Handy little wrench, fits jack and knob nuts. Hole pre-drilled through it hangs right on your bench.
Quick and easy to use.
Slim and trim, the output jack wrench is a keeper!
great toll to have ...
I recently repaired (for the umpteenth time)a strap post output jack that I installed in my Epiphone El Dorado in early 80's- a Martin passive bridge saddle pickup. The nut on the inside of the body of the guitar has always been infuriating to tighten up each time I changed my strings, and the strap continually loosened it up, causing downtime for the guitar between repairs. I screwed an output jack wrench to a short length of wood dowel cut on a slight angle. With the wrench slightly angled forward I was able to fit it in the body and still turn it with a firm grip quite comfortably compared to my many previously unsuccessful attempts. Thanks for the trade tips! Mike

Timing Belts, Timing Chains & Components
What is a Timing Chain and where is it Located?
The timing chain is the most important part of an automotive's engine timing system. Typically located on the front of the engine, the timing chain syncs together the rotation of the crankshaft and camshaft. While most older automobiles only had one camshaft inside the engine block and required only one timing chain, today's more complex overhead cam motors can have as many as 4 cams and multiple chains connecting everything together.
What is a Timing Belt and where is it Located?
Much like the timing chain, timing belts connect the camshaft to the crankshaft. However, instead of being a metal link design, timing belts are made of reinforced rubber. In order to fit in tighter and more intricate engine designs, the timing belt system may incorporate the use of multiple hydraulic or mechanical timing belt tensioners, and belt tensioner or idler pulleys.
For an even more in-depth explanation of mechanical timing, belts, chains, how they each work, why they fail, maintenance and replacement tips and more, check out our timing belts Vs. timing chains guide.

Topic review (newest first)
I wrote my own version of an Excel Soduko eatinrr and solver a while back, but I didn't have a good way to generate them until now. Here's the concept in the alogarithm that you can program yourself.Assuming a 3 3 grid1) Put any random set of numbers in the center box obviously, one each of the digits 1-92) Fill in the box above and below the center box with any random number of choice that doesn't break the Soduko rule.3) Keep track of all of the options for each cell and give priority to assigning that random number to the CELL THAT HAS THE LEAST OPTIONS AVAILABLE TO IT. In other words .Each cell has 9 optional digits that the cell can contain. As you enter a value in a cell, the cells in the same box, row and column no longer have that digit as an option. Take that option away from all other cells in the box, row and column. They now only have 8 possible entries. As you continue with this process, you will see that some cells may have five options left while other cells have only 3 options. Provide a random number (that is within the available options for that cell) to the cells with less options first.4) Providing a random number in the top box and then the bottom box and then repeating seems to keep the random generation working smoothly.5) Once all cells are completed in the center column of boxes, move to either the left or right and complete all cells in column of boxes.6) To complete the cells in the left or right columns, simply apply one random number (again, within the remaining possible values) for each cell. Give priority to cells that have the least number of options. Try scanning the whole column of boxes and looking for cells with only one option left. Be sure to do those first.7) Complete the last column of boxes and assign values to the cells in the same way.WORKS EVERY TIME IF YOU APPLY THE LOGIC
No, no, no, each box is calculated. It does not matter how. Brute force is a method calculation. Find the routine that fills the boxes with numbers. Insert at its end whatever command pauses and allows you to examine the contents of the variable at that point. This is how it is done.
how do you mean calculate.it is a brute-force algorithm,nothing is calculated.
Put a stop command or a break command or a pause command at the end of the routine that calculates the boxes. Then it pause after every box is calculated. Either you must do it manually by inserting the appropriate command or use your debugger.
well,i don't know if i will get to it very fast.when it finds a number that can be in a box it moves the next empty box,and tries values for it,and again and again until it all fills up or it finds a box that no number can go into.in the second case it goes to the square it filled up before the one where 'no number can stand' and it tries the next possible value.
That is row 1, column 3?
the third one.
Oh, okay.
i do have the final answer.i got the example from a Sudoku book.it has solutions in the back.
How can you check what is supposed to be in the answer if you do not know what the answer is?
i think i don't understand what you mean...actually i know i don't understand what you mean.
No, I meant for the purpose of checking what each box is supposed to hold.

Pretty good program for ripping CDs if you still have any. Definitely more flexible than something like Windows Media Player. Handles most of the common and not so common formats. Not the simplest software, but I wouldn't say it's difficult to use. It does a lot which may cause it to be a little more complicated than simpler apps like Windows Media Player, but it's much more capable. I'm on Windows 7 x64 by the way.
Thanks for software and updates.
Impressing job pals!
Cdexos is perfect! Thanks.
It works. It supports pretty much everything you can think of. It doesn't crash in the hands of a casual user.

Spencer Ackerman reports on a new study from the National Bureau of Economic Research looking to quantify the impact of civilian casualties in Afghanistan in producing new insurgents:
So we're still having a few problems with the RSS feed, but comments should be working fine now. Shoot me an e-mail if you're still having trouble accessing comments or the full RSS feed.
Last week I received a number of very kind notes from readers congratulating me on the new blog, and I regret I haven't been able to respond to all of them, so I just wanted to say thank you in case you were one of the folks I didn't get back to.
From Christina Bellantoni comes a classic Michael Steele moment following the 2004 Republican convention, about a month after then-Senator Obama made his national debut at the Democratic convention:
Mr. Steele last night said Mr. Obama stole his fire, saying in prepared remarks, "I had planned to give a moving defense of the conservative principles of the Republican Party tonight. But there was only one problem: Barack Obama gave it last month at the Democratic convention."
Greg Sargent has a statement from Arizona Sens. John McCain and Jon Kyl, responding to the news that the Obama administration will sue Arizona over their draconian immigration law, SB 1070:
"The American people must wonder whether the Obama Administration is really committed to securing the border when it sues a state that is simply trying to protect its people by enforcing immigration law.
Last week, Uruguay defeated Ghana in the World Cup quarterfinals after striker Luís Suárez deliberately blocked a Ghanian shot on goal with his hand. Suárez was summarily ejected, and Ghana's Asamoah Gyan subsequently choked on the awarded penalty kick. Uruguay then defeated Ghana 4-2 on penalties.
This has led a number of people to argue that Suárez didn't cheat by deliberately blocking the goal with his hand.
J. Christian Adams, the conservative activist hired in the Voting Rights Section of the Justice Department during an era of politicization, recently wrote that "The Bush Civil Rights Division was willing to protect all Americans from racial discrimination; during the Obama years, the Holder years, only some Americans will be protected."
In the past few weeks, the New Black Panther Party case has re-emerged as a point of focus for the conservative media. Last year, the Justice Department's Civil Rights Decision dismissed most charges in a voter-suppression case against a group of New Black Panther Party members, two of whom were caught on tape by Fox News standing outside a Philadelphia polling place during the 2008 election. One of them, who was brandishing a baton, received an injunction.
Bill Keller's response to that study noting that American newspapers described waterboarding as torture when done in other countries but as something else when done by Americans is bizarre:
Uruguay blocks a Ghanian goal by cheating, then wins at penalty kicks after Ghana chokes three times.
Earlier this week, I argued that The New York Times' refusal to refer to waterboarding as torture was the result of longstanding journalistic conventions, and had serious implications not just for torture but for climate change as well. Amanda Hess makes a few other observations:
Rich Lowry, National Review, September 1, 2006:
On Iraq, the Democrats are the party of defeat. That's not a partisan smear, but a fact. The further we slide toward defeat, the higher the Democrats' political fortunes rise. To the extent they offer any clear policy alternative for Iraq, it is either — depending on your point of view — to admit, or to guarantee, defeat with a rapid drawdown of American troops. So their political self-interest objectively coincides with a defeat, and the kind of pullout endorsed at times by high-profile leaders in the party would hasten it.

The White House recently held a meeting with a group of LGBT reporters and bloggers in order to reassure them that the administration is prioritizing their concerns. Pam Spaulding was there:
British Actor Andrew Garfield seems to have an impressive resume as an actor, but considering that the 2012 Spider-Man movie reboot was meant to place him back in high school, a 26-year-old seems like an odd choice.
As Garret Epps has noted, the conservative case against Elena Kagan's treatment of military recruiters at Harvard largely relies on empathy.
Is the "acting white phenomenon" what people think it is?
Flying cars.
Arizona's "anti-racial profiling" training video for law enforcement.
The NRA comes out against Kagan. Bit late, no?
Almost nowhere else is there such a tight link between class and opinions about cutting government.
For the GOP, there's no real benefit in admitting Obamacare is working.
Liberals are exasperated with conservatives' unwillingness to acknowledge fact about health care, and other things. But they'd better get used to it.

Patch from Timothy Miller: SGI introduced a bug in nm with their newest version of their compilers that prevents lisp.map from being generated right; this fix is a workaround for that problem.
From: Timothy Miller <email@example.com> Ok, here are the updated patches to make the same cmucl lisp.core work across OS versions under irix, still by making tzname resolved at runtime (on irix only).
I just finished making load-foreign work on SGIs, along with fixing calling of foreign functions taking floating-point arguments after integer arguments but before the fourth argument (more or less; mips has unusual C calling conventions), and making cmucl work on IRIX 6.2 on the Onyx (where the system page size has changed). I've included the patches below, along with some discussion of the changes and a couple of problems with cmucl's interaction with dynamic loading. Also, there's a misc change to make ioctls work (I'm not sure for what version the released code worked, but it doesn't work on anything I have). The patches do not fix the R10000; cmucl continues to not work on it (O2 and Octane). The fixes make cmucl on the sgi use shared libraries so it can use dlopen et al in load-foreign; this is based on the solaris implementation. The problem with this is that the addresses of foreign variables are included directly in the dumped lisp image (without relocation on loading), which might result in a problem if cmucl is run with newer shared libraries than those it was compiled and dumped with. As far as I can tell, for the SGI at least, this does not affect function calls because the addresses used (and included in the dumped image) are those of stub routines that jump to the actual routines, thus are located in the executable proper rather than in the shared libraries, and so shouldn't be changed by a new version of the shared library. Unfortunately, this is not the case for global variables. Fortunately, there appear to only be two foreign variables used by cmucl in any of its system code winding up in the dumped image: errno and tzname. Apparently, Solaris relocates data references in dsos to match the program, while IRIX relocates data references in the program to match the dso. Thus, on Solaris, you don't need to do anything special for cmucl to work with a newer runtime libc, but on IRIX it gets the wrong value of errno and tzname. Unfortunately, the address of errno is different between irix 6.2, 6.3, and 6.4 (all of which we have to have because SGI doesn't have a single cross-platform OS version yet), which would require a different lisp.core for each machine (you just need to run mk-lisp, not recompile) if it weren't for the hack below. But fortunately again, a lisp compiled for one version seems to be able to run on another version well enough to generate the new lisp.core (presumably the worst that would happen is that error messages could be confusing). It would be really nice to avoid this problem. Perhaps some kind of relocation table could be added to the dumped image format? I don't know enough about the system to know how possible or ridiculous that suggestion is, unfortunately. Is the Solaris behavior guaranteed to be the same in future releases? If not, or if any other platforms have the irix behavior, this might become a more general problem. In the meantime, we use a hack: we *define* errno in undefineds.c rather than just referencing it; this results in warnings from the linker, but it resolves the conflict in favor of the definition in the program, relocating libc to match, thus fixing this problem for errno. The other global variables, tzname et al, can't be fixed this way as easily because they're listed as weak symbols, essentially aliases for the real symbol, so redefining them wouldn't cause libc to reference the new version. Thus, as long as you don't use tzname, there's no problem right now (although there may be if any other library global variables are used in cmucl in the future). The definition of tzname is in a progn preceeded by a comment which says not to use it, so hopefully it's not in fact used and therefore not a problem. These patches have been tested on an R5000 O2 running irix 6.3 and a dual R4400 Onyx running irix 6.2. A previous version of these patches (for 17f) was tested on the onyx when it was running 5.3 (I think, maybe 5.2). The patches here are from the main branch of the CVS tar as of August 13. Incidentally, it was quite painful figuring out how to compile and bootstrap the current sources under the distributed irix 18a binary, even without trying :new-random or :signed-array (which I haven't tried to do yet); it might be nice to put a newer binary up...
