Organiza· tion of the Colorauo State Chess Association 11I st year united our chess leaders in a common effort to promote the game. The CSCA di rectors. Ben Kriegh of Boulder, AI Hulme ~ of Den\'er. and Warren Barter of Pueblo, were in agree me nt that the USCF was the best instrument to promote chess for the typical club in the outlying provinces as well as at the national level, and they became the Membership Committee for OPERATION M. As a result the USCF program was publicized at the club level, at CSCA meetings, and through the eSCA Newsletter. The CSCA adopted the requireme nt of USCF membershi !J for par· ticipation in the state tournament. The Denver YMCA CC inaugurated r Ol li ng tournaments {or USCF members. The promise of national rat· ings brought out the best players in the state for the 1959 tourna ment, and the number of entries was 43% greater tha n the previous year.

  • A Guide to Open Records Laws and Protections for Research Materials
    A Guide to Open Records Laws and Protectons for Research Materials Brought to you by www.csldf.org The Climate Science @ClimSciDefense Legal Defense Fund INTRODUCTION A Guide to Open Records Laws and Protections for Research Materials Open records laws are valuable tools for government transparency, enabling the public to request documents related to state and federally funded activities. However, these laws are increasingly misused to attack scientists who work on politically contentious topics in attempts to distort or undermine their research. The misuse of open records laws damages the scientific endeavor by diverting researchers’ time, threatening their privacy, and chilling candid scientific discussions. And by harming the scientific endeavor and interfering with scientific progress, the abuse of open records laws also harms human and environmental health. Until the necessary protections for scientific research are included in open records laws, it is crucial that scientists understand the laws in their state. This guide distills the open records laws in each of the fifty states and the District of Columbia into an easy-to-use reference that describes how each state’s open records law can potentially be used to protect research materials. It highlights categories of research records that may be vulnerable to an invasive open records request and lists areas where there are ambiguities. It also describes examples of how that state has treated specific records in the past. Included are practical tips for labeling records to help scientists categorize materials that may be protected from disclosure and maximize the chances that their records will remain safe. Weaponizing Open Records Laws The original purpose of open records laws was to provide the public information about policymakers and other state and federal business.
