Apr-28-13 0    IndigoViolet: Importing another 20-30 million Hispanics will increase the already substantial academic achievement gap between whites and Hispanics in America even further.      Apr-28-13 Nigel Short    IndigoViolet: Don't know why people are ragging on Alekhine; he was a very shrewd operator. He survived two world wars, three marriages, successfully negotiated the Commies, the Nazis and Capablanca and still found time to be world champion for 17 years. What's not to admire?      Apr-28-13 Aronian vs Adams, 2013    IndigoViolet: Damn, forgot to post the video link. http://www.alekhine-memorial.com/vi...      Apr-28-13 FIDE Grand Prix Zug (2013)    IndigoViolet: Carlsen, the Sun-God of chess, is missing. Could be worse, the Chinese Championships (2013) , has only 3 pages.      Apr-28-13 Teimour Radjabov    IndigoViolet: So he's broken a 20 game winless streak that cost him about 50 ELO points.      Apr-28-13 Wesley So    IndigoViolet: < Britain's Chris Froome won the Tour de Romandie for the first time after finishing third in the final stage.

His bio suggests he was one of those dilettante, slightly shonky Victorians who      Apr-28-13 Ruslan Ponomariov    IndigoViolet: Lighten up, SuperMariov.      Apr-27-13 Alekhine Memorial (2013)    IndigoViolet: Couple of dodgy-sounding characters if you ask me: http://www.alekhine-memorial.com/sp... Gennady Timchenko: <In 1916, when he was already a well-known chess player, he decided to go to war as a volunteer and joined a medical unit. He took wounded soldiers from the ...      Apr-27-13 Magnus Carlsen    IndigoViolet: <Charlie Rose interviews MC> Embarrassing. The best bit was the pic of Carlsen vs Aronian ( Carlsen vs Aronian, 2007 ) with Aronian sporting the worst looking beard in chess history.
