  • FIDE GRAND PRIX (2008/9) REPORT for DRESDEN GENERAL ASSEMBLY - November 2008
    FIDE GRAND PRIX (2008/9) REPORT FOR DRESDEN GENERAL ASSEMBLY - November 2008 1.0 INTRODUCTION The introduction of the FIDE Grand Prix for the top players in the world has proven to be a success. It has not only complemented nicely the chess calendar filling in certain holes we had but secondly, it has given a number of younger “unknown” players the opportunity to play super tournaments and prove their capacity to advance in the world rankings. The overall ranking on the next page shows the very positive performance of two of these new chess forces GM Wang Yue from China and GM Vugar Gashimov from Azerbaijan. All players taking part have commented favourably on the experience and opportunity to play in the Grand Prix series. The launch of this series has now led to the development of a similar series for Women who will be given the same opportunity to play in four tournaments over two years (out of six total tournaments). The challenge in the near future is to now attract overall sponsorship for the series and this can be satisfactorily achieved once the cycle is over and sponsors / organizers can review the media and exposure that was achieved with the current series. 2.0 EVENTS AND RESULTS Two events have so far been held for the FIDE Grand Prix series 2008/9 which sees 21 of the world’s top players taking part in a cycle of six tournaments over two years. The first event was held successfully in Baku, Azerbaijan between the 20th April 2008 and 5th May 2008.

  • Hastings International Chess Congress
    Hastings International Chess Congress Hastings Masters winner Wang Yue, with Amber Rudd MP (left) and Cllr. Maureen Charlesworth Chess Moves presents - in chronological order - a series of reports from Stewart Reuben on the Hastings International Chess Congress. It all begins with ... Round 1. Where games are referenced in Stewart’s text, many of them may be found at the Hastings Congress website - www.hastingschess.com Wang Yue (CHN) 2697 is the first Chinese player to have taken part in Hastings for some years. He is also the highest rated player ever to have participated in the Masters. In Britain we don’t believe in absurd first round clashes with a difference of over 400 rating points. But with such a high rated player as Wang Yue it is impossible to avoid very nearly such a difference in rating.There are other reasons for using Accelerated Pairings: it is more likely players will be able to achieve a GM norm; the disconcerting and unfair bouncing effect for players just below the top (Continued on Page 3) Publications that are produced by volunteers.

  • THE CHINESE SOUL in CONTEMPORARY JEWELRY DESIGN Andrew Lucas, Merilee Chapin, Moqing Lin, and Xiaodan Jia
    FEATURE AR ICLES THE CHINESE SOUL IN CONTEMPORARY JEWELRY DESIGN Andrew Lucas, Merilee Chapin, Moqing Lin, and Xiaodan Jia When the same gems and precious metals are used in jewelry, design is the element that ultimately dis- tinguishes one piece from another. Real success is measured not only by the value of its materials but also by the character and quality of the design and craftsmanship. Once considered a weak point of China’s gem and jewelry industry, design has seen tremendous progress over the last decade. Benefiting from the availability of more gem materials and the power of a rapidly growing consumer market, Chi- nese designers now have the freedom to develop their design concepts and craftsmanship skills. De- signers from mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan share the bond of cultural identity and have found ways to create jewelry that expresses the Chinese soul. rom dangling hair ornaments to exquisite jade This lack of innovation caused a sense of stagna- pendants and splendid crowns, jewelry has al- tion, which led some industry pioneers to find a new Fways served as personal adornment for the Chi- approach.

Like the two previous books, Boris and I would debate the games over Skype. I would record the conversations and continue to analyse the games on my own, to see if I found any additional details. I would then return the games to Boris, fully annotated, and he would make further corrections. We then showed many of the examples to our students, who came up with many interesting suggestions. This is the case even more so with Decision Making in Major Piece Endings, which is published simultaneously with this volume. We would like to thank our students for their contributions. The authors would also like to thank Alexander Huzman for his great contribution and discoveries. Throughout the book, including in the index, you will find him referred to either as Huzman or simply as Alex – he deserves to be mentioned twice!

  • First Gold to Eastern Europe
    Chief Editor: Jos Jacobs, Layout Editor: George Hatzidakis Bulletin 3 - Tuesday, 7 October 2008 FIRST GOLD TO EASTERN EUROPE Alexandra Kosteniuk On Sunday evening the first two national anthems were heard in the Convention Hall No. 3 of the BICC. They were the well-known hymn of the Russian Federation and the less well-known anthem of its neighbour state Ukraine. This was in celebration of the first two gold medals won at these 1st World Mind Sports Games. Both finals were a completely Eastern European affair. The countries of Eastern Europe have been dominating the world chess scene for many decades already, as was proved again here in Beijing. For this occasion, both Alexandra Kosteniuk and Martyn Kratvsiv dressed up elegantly to receive their gold medals.

In the last century it has been closely connected to the world chess federation FIDE1. This paper analyses all of the rated chess games published on the FIDE website from January 2008 to September 2010 with network analytic methods. We discuss some players and game properties, above all the portion of games played between the world’s best chess players and the frequency of games among countries. Additionally, our analysis confirms the already known advantage of white pieces in the game of chess. We conclude that some modifications in the current system should appear in the near future.
