I should mention that the first rook "sacrifice" wasn't a sacrifice at all, but a blunder. After committing said blunder, I felt I had no choice, but...

The GP is looking redundant considering that there are already two Candidates places determined by two-game knockouts with rapid playoffs via the...

2019 Chess Artists Open: Pairing of round 6, at 1300 of 15/12/2019 ...

The pgn files are empty as well. Maybe they haven't been updated yet.

The FDA costs must be passed on to the customers. They should not be protected from competition by Big Government. Big Government is also the...

The opposite of socialized medicine of the UK is not the cronyist system that makes insulin too pricy, but market competition. So how many new...

If the price of insulin in the US is due to a lack of market competition, why is insulin so much cheaper when its cost is set directly by the...

Nothing to do with my point that a USUK free trade agreement will make no significant difference to the UK. And it's also nothing to do with...
