Opening White Is Brian Anderson going to be the white sox opening day CF?
And how funny would that be?
I don't know what would be better, witnessing the second coming of Brian Anderson, watching them overpay for Mike Cameron even though he's going to miss the first month of the season, or watching them trade the farm for Juan Pierre or Coco Crisp. No matter what happens, it's going to be beautiful.

In chess the word opening has two common meanings: a stage of a game and a sequence of moves; both of which are discussed in this article. Chess players are so familiar with these two meanings that many books and articles never state the distinction and may switch without notice from one meaning to the other. A chess opening is the group of initial moves of a chess game. Recognized sequences of opening moves are referred to as openings as initiated by White or defenses, as created in reply by Black. There are many dozens of different openings, and hundreds of named variants. The Oxford Companion to Chess lists 1,327 named openings and variants. These vary widely in character from quiet positional play e.g. the Rti Opening and some lines of the Queens Gambit Declined to wild tactical play e.g. the Latvian Gambit and Two Knights Defense, particularly the Traxler Variation. A sequence of opening moves that is considered standard often cataloged in a reference work such as the Encyclopedia of Chess Openings is referred to as the book moves, or simply book.

Bird``s Opening is an underrated and dynamic choice for White that immediately directs the game into relatively unexplored territory, setting Black players early problems and forcing them to think for themselves rather than having the luxury of relying on the theory of more mainstream openings. It``s also a very flexible option that can lead to both sharp gambit play, such as the notorious From``s Gambit, as well as quieter positional lines.In this book International Master Timothy Taylor unearths the secrets of Bird``s Opening and its many deviations. Using illustrative games, he examines tactical and positional ideas for both colours and recommends the best paths in both the "main lines" and the lesser-trodden paths. A study of this book will give readers the required knowledge and confidence to play the Bird``s Opening with either color.>Written by a Bird``s Opening expert>A complete up-to-date survey on an active chess opening>Ideal for club and tournament players

The English Opening The English Opening with 1.c4 is one of the most subtle yet combative means of starting a chess game which has found favour with many of the great players in history. White takes space on the Queenside whilst keeping his options open about where he should place his pieces. This gives White the kind of flexibility that is missing from regular 1.d4 openings and puts the onus on planning and ideas rather than a knowledge of variations. On this DVD Davies tells you everything you need to know to start playing the English in tournament games, showing how White should react to Black’s different set-ups using 40 illustrative games. The main focus is on lines with 2.g3, making it easier for White to get aboard this Rolls Royce of chess openings.Video running time: 8 hours. Nigel Davies has been a Grandmaster since 1993 and is a former British Open Quickplay and U21 Champion. He has more than 30 years experience of playing the English Opening, having used it exte
High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles A chess opening theory table or ECO (Encyclopedia Of Chess Openings) table presents lines of moves, typically (but not always) from the starting position. Notated chess moves are presented in the table from left to right. Variations on a given line are given horizontally below the parent line. Chess opening theory tables are commonly published in opening books with annotations by experienced chess players. These tables are typically arranged in a compact manner to allow experienced players to see variations from a position quickly. Usually, the table indicates that either White or Black has equal, slightly better, or better chances at the end of the variation. Often, this information is distilled down to mere symbols or the percentage of games (usually tournament games) where White won no information is usually given on what the assessment is based on or how to proceed in the game.

An Opening Repertoire for Black A few years ago, IM Bangiev published a CD with a Repertoire for White. Since then the author has developed a new method of training – his squares strategy – and already three CDs have been published based on it. Consequently, Bangiev has now prepared his long planned CD with a Repertoire for Black along the lines of the terminology and methodology of the squares strategy. The unified system which he suggests is based on a setup with g6, Bg7 and c5, which can easily be applied as a reply to the main White openings.The author has years of experience with this setup, the benefit of which he now passes on to his students. The author’s work occupies three databases: a) Theory: the heart of the new CD with 5 introductory texts, 149 theoretical fragments of games and 36 annotated games from praxis. b) Reference database with over 100,000 games and an opening key specially developed for this CD. c) Training database with 166 exercises. The CD is suitable for cl

Sensation White 2008 Opening - DJ Chuckie (Amsterdam ArenA)
ATP Tennis - Federer Advances to the Fourth Round of the Sony Ericsson Open
The 27-year-old and seeded No.2, Roger Federer advanced to the fourth round of the Sony Ericsson Open in Miami by beating the German Nicolas Keifer 6-4, 6-1. It was a great game for the Swiss, who had to play with strong winds and with a little bit of rain. However, despite all this difficulties, the Swiss played amazingly well and this win gives some more confidence in his game to the world No.2 and a secure place to play the fourth round of the tournament; hoping for his first title of the year, and the first Masters title in quite a while, since he won his last one in August, 2007.
At the beginning of the game, the German started in a very good shape, winning the first game of the first set, but the Swiss without problems recaptured the control of the game by breaking Keifer’s serve in two occasions and even with good plays from Keifer, Federer imposed himself with great tennis. During the first set, the Swiss was having close to 70% on first serve effectiveness while the German was having close to 50%. During the second set, Federer was without a doubt in control of the game and the victory seemed remarkably on his hands. The German lost his confidence at the end of the game, which was notable especially by his many unforced errors from which Federer took advantage off and finished the set 6-1. With that result, the game was over in favour of the Swiss, who after 70 minutes got his qualification to the next round.
The following contender of Roger Federer will be the American Taylor Dent, who after several surgeries due to back problems and years of absence, defeated the 15th seeded Tommy Robredo 7-5, 6-3 in the third round at Crandon Park in Miami. This was a surprise upset for many fans of tennis, but it is very refreshing to see this American doing such a great comeback presentation in this important U.S tournament.
For Federer, playing against Dent will be very interesting and a great experience. “It's great to see him back playing,” said the world No.2. “He was always a dangerous player on tour because he was aggressive, offensive and kind of making the match decides on a couple of passing shots here and there. It's going to be interesting for me to see how he plays. I actually never played him, so I can't compare before and after injury. I'm looking forward to a good match.”
Both players are really excited for this game and hope for the best results. Federer is conscious that he needs to win this tournament to regain some points in the rankings and recapture some confidence in his game, while also accomplishing his first title of the year. Federer has won this tournament in two occasions, one in 2005 where he defeated Rafael Nadal in five sets and then in 2006 against Ljubicic where he beat him in three tie-breaks. On the other hand, winning this game would be a plus to Dent’s recovery and would give him a better position in the rankings as well. We wish the best of lucks for both players and hope for them to give us all the tennis fans a great game to watch.
