I came from Croatia as 2100 rated player in 2002 and started my work in Kilkenny Chess Club with 4 juniors .One of them is now 2300 player and he just finished his University in Dublin . Since 2003 over 3000 children in their schools learnt how to play chess with me in their Elementary Schools . Not only that we had huge success in competitive chess but as well we did well to Educate our students and to teach them the most important thing – to think ! Despite having 14 Irish Junior Chess Championship , 2 British , 1 Women Fide master and FM I am most proud of the other benefits that Chess gave to my students ! At the moment I am teaching chess in few DEIS schools – disadvantage areas, schools with kids from average or not wealthy families . We found out that kids that play chess are more likely to improve nearly in all subjects but most importantly to socialize with kids from other ( higher social class, wealthier background etc.) schools . Not only that kids are playing chess but as well they are accepted and respected in community as people with great skill .

J. Byrne ([email protected]) University of Dublin, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland Abstract possibility is that people are more capable of falsification than experimental evidence has revealed so far. We will first Falsification may demarcate science from non-science as the outline the view that confirmation is a useful strategy to test rational way to test the truth of hypotheses. But experimental hypotheses and the view that falsification may be evidence from studies of reasoning shows that people often conceptually impossible (e.g., Poletiek, 1996). Then we will find falsification difficult. We suggest that domain expertise show that falsification is in fact possible in a domain that may facilitate falsification. We consider new experimental data about chess experts’ hypothesis testing. The results show has been a trusted test-bed for theories of cognition for that chess masters were readily able to falsify their plans. They almost forty years: chess problem solving. We will consider generated move sequences that falsified their plans more experimental results that testify to high levels of readily than novice players, who tended to confirm their plans.

79 FIDE Congress 23-25 November 2008 Dresden, Germany GENERAL
79th FIDE Congress 23-25 November 2008 Dresden, Germany GENERAL ASSEMBLY MINUTES Lord Mayor of Dresden, H. Orosz, welcomed the delegates of the General Assembly. The President of FIDE responded by thanking the Mayor, the people of Dresden, the Organizing Committee, the sponsors and the German Chess Federation for the wonderful preparation and organization of the 38th Chess Olympiad and 79th FIDE Congress. Messrs. Abundo, Bond and Asama were appointed scrutineers. Roll Call: 105 countries were present thus a quorum was established. 0.1. Obituaries. Delegates stood in silence to remember those friends of FIDE who had died in the preceding year, amongst whom were: GM Robert James Fischer (USA) – World Champion Nicola Palladino (ITA) – Honorary Member GM Buhuti Gurgenidze (GEO) GM Karen Asrian (ARM) Philip Hogarty (IRL) –President of the Irish Chess Union Heinz Meurer – ICSC President Yosef Lapid – ex President of the Israeli Chess Federation GM Nino Kirov (BUL) IM William G. Addison (USA) 1. Report of the President. President Kirsan Ilyumzhinov presented his annual report. He reported on the activities since the last General Assembly. The period after the Turin Congress is remarkable because of the unification of the chess world which took place in October 2006 in Elista. The path to this goal had been very difficult and full of complications. The match itself was a difficult test for both sportsmen and FIDE. The course of the match created a lot of interest from mass media. Chess featured on the front pages of many large newspapers. It is clear that the interest in the match was, to a great extent, caused by “toiletgate”, but it attracted additional interest to chess.
