Children & Junior Beginners 12. Openings Keverel Chess Books July – January. Terms & Abbreviations The condition of a book is estimated on the following scale. Each letter can be finessed by a + or - giving 12 possible levels. The judgement will be subjective, of course, but based on decades of experience. F = Fine or nearly new // VG = very good // G = showing acceptable signs of wear. P = Poor, structural damage (loose covers, torn pages, heavy marginalia etc.) but still providing much of interest. AN = Algebraic Notation in which, from White’s point of view, columns are called a – h and ranks are numbered 1-8 (as opposed to the old descriptive system). Figurine, in which piece names are replaced by pictograms, is now almost universal in modern books as it overcomes the language problem. In this case AN may be assumed. pp = number of pages in the book.// ed = edition // insc = inscription – e.g. a previous owner’s name on the front endpaper. o/w = otherwise. dw = Dust wrapper It may be assumed that any book published in Russia will be in the Russian language, (Cyrillic) or an Argentinian book will be in Spanish etc. Anything contrary to that will be mentioned. PB = paperback. SB = softback i.e. a flexible cover that cannot be torn easily. -

Box 2359, Edmonton, Alberta T5J 2R7 Re: NOTICE OF APPEAL: City of Edmonton - 2005 Community Investment Hosting Grant My apologies for submitting this appeal after the deadline date of Thursday April 7th. This is because the letter informing us of the Community Services Advisory Board's decision to recommend that the Alberta Chess Association (ACA) be denied funding for the 2005 Canadian Open Chess Championship, was sent to the association's mailbox and not to my home address. The ACA's mail box was not checked until yesterday and hence I was not aware of the decision until then. I trust that this submission will be accepted. Having reviewed the reasons given for why the ACA's request was rejected, I believe that there were errors in assessment as follows: GROUNDS FOR APPEAL: 1. The Canadian Open 2005 was deemed an invitational tournament. It is "Nor. Although there are certain featured players, the tournament is "OPEN" to everyone. It is not a closed event limited to invitees only. This gives everyone a chance to play some of the best players in the \YOnd. As specified in the guidelines: Eliaible amateur and reaeation events must: be open events that are not restricted to members of a certain arOUD or club. The Canadian Open 2005 is open to everyonewho wants to playas stated in the title of the event. -

Nakamura's first supertournament victory came at Wijk aan Zee 2011, finishing clear first ahead of the four top-rated players in the world in a performance described by former World Champion Garry Kasparov as better than any tournament by Bobby Fischer, and the best by an American in more than 100 years. Nakamura is the top USCF rated player at 2858, as published on 1 February 2012. Message from the Honourable Ida Chong Minister of Community, Sport and Cultural Development On behalf of Premier Christy Clark and the Province of British Columbia, I want to welcome all players, supporters, volunteers, and family members to the 2012 Canadian Open Chess Championship, being held in Victoria for the first time.
