Who Profits from the Recession?
Or, to quote my wife, "People talk about Main Street vs Wall Street. It should be Main Street vs the Beltway."
I've run into yet another case of someone complaining about conservatives falsely claiming Adam Smith in support of their views while doing exactly that himself. The complainer this time is David Brin, who wrote an interesting book on surveillance some years back but has, in my experience, a tendency to pontificate well beyond the limits of his knowledge.
But anyone who actually reads Adam Smith also knows that he went on and on about that "fair and open" part! Especially how excessive disparities of wealth and income destroy competition. Unlike today's conservatives, who grew up in a post-WWII flattened social order without major wealth-castes, Smith lived immersed in class-rooted oligarchy, of the kind that ruined markets, freedom and science across nearly 99% of human history. He knew the real enemy, first hand and denounced it in terms that he never used for mere bureaucrats.
In a comment, I asked him to produce a quote from Smith saying that excessive disparities of wealth and income destroy competition. He responded with the following (from The Theory of Moral Sentiments).
"This disposition to admire, and almost to worship, the rich and the powerful, and to despise, or, at least, to neglect, persons of poor and mean condition, though necessary both to establish and to maintain the distinction of ranks and the order of society, is, at the same time, the great and most universal cause of the corruption of our moral sentiments."
Which, as I pointed out in my response, has nothing to do with disparities of wealth and income destroying competition. Apparently Brin couldn't find any examples of Smith saying what he claims Smith went on and on about, so quoted something else instead.
I could have gone on to point out that Smith's attacks are not, for the most part, against the "class-rooted oligarchy," which at his time consisted mostly of the landed gentry. On the contrary, he tried to persuade the landowners that the policies he thought were in the general interest were also in their interest—sometimes stretching his argument pretty far to do so. His attacks were mostly directed at the "merchants and manufacturers."
But it didn't seem worth the trouble.
Those interested in reading Brin's post and our exchange of comments will find them here.
My earlier post on people misrepresenting Smith while complaining about other people doing so is here.
P.S. Since I put this up, Brin posted another response and I answered it. As I suggest in my answer, my fundamental complaint about Brin is the same as my complaint elsewhere about Rothbard—that as long as he believes he is arguing for the right side, he doesn't really care whether what he says is true.
I have stayed out of macro-economics in my work as an economist for a number of reasons, but it is a hot political subject at the moment and several times of late I have gotten involved in online macro arguments, so I decided it would be worth learning a little more about it. Someone sent me a copy of a recent book of essays by Tim Congdon, who has the interesting distinction of being both a monetarist and a fan of Keynes, and I have started reading it.
The central claim of the first essay is that the views of the British Keynesians of the sixties and seventies were strikingly inconsistent with Keynes' own views. They saw inflation as a cost push phenomenon to which the proper solution was wage and price controls. Keynes, like later monetarists, saw it as a result of too much money and the solution as tight monetary policy. He was against wage and price controls, not for them.
One other thing struck me about the first essay: Congdon repeatedly refers to the interest rate as "the price of money." This is a very common error, and one that is not only wrong but dangerously wrong.
If the price of an apple is fifty cents, that means that if I give a seller fifty cents he will give me an apple in exchange. If the interest rate is five percent and that is the price of money, I ought to be able to buy money for five cents on the dollar. I doubt that Congdon, or anyone else, will be willing to sell it to me at that price.
The price of money is what you have to give up to get it—the inverse of the price level. If the price of an apple is fifty cents, the price of a dollar is two apples. The interest rate is the rent on money, measured in money. A change in the price of money affects both the money you are renting and the money you are paying as rent, leaving the ratio of the two unchanged.
Suppose that at midnight tonight every dollar bill in the world twins, along with a similar change in the accounting entries for bank deposits, other forms of money, and all obligations denominated in money. By morning, there is twice as much money as before—and nothing else has changed.
I would ask Congdon whether, under those circumstances, he would expect the interest rate to drop. If his answer is yes, my next question is whether he would expect a much more extreme drop if we relabeled pennies as dollars and dollars as hundred dollar bills, thus increasing the money supply, measured in "dollars," a hundredfold.
The reason the description of the interest rate as the price of money is not only wrong but dangerously wrong is that it implies a simple relation between money and the interest rate—in the extreme (but not uncommon) version, the belief that interest rates are set by central banks, with high interest rates the result of a tight monetary policy.
A central bank can create money and lend it out, increasing the supply of loans (which reduces the interest rate) and increasing the money supply. That is the one element of truth to the relationship. But what is affecting the interest rate is not the amount of money but the amount of loans; the government could get the same effect by collecting more in taxes than it spends and lending out the difference.
The interest rate is a market price—the price paid for the use of capital—and the central bank controls it only in the same sense in which the government can control the price of wheat by choosing to buy or sell some of it. The central bank does not have an unlimited amount of capital from money creation to lend and so has only a limited ability to shift interest rates from what they would otherwise be. Furthermore, a continued expansion of the money supply creates the expectation of future price rises, which pushes the nominal interest rate up, not down.
I have been unable to locate an email address for Tim Congdon, so am unable to point out his error to him directly. If any of my readers has one, I would be grateful if you would send it to me.
It is now both easy and inexpensive for an author to self-publish his work, either as a print-on-demand paperback or an ebook; for the former I recommend CreateSpace, Amazon's POD subsidiary, which my wife and I used to self-publish a historical cookbook. Self-published books of either sort can be sold through Amazon, making them easily available to anyone who wants them. Thus two of the functions of a publisher, producing books and distributing them, are no longer necessary.
Publishers also help authors write their books by providing copy editors, locating cover artists, occasionally even providing useful feedback on the contents. But all of these functions can be provided almost equally well in other ways. Copy editors are for the most part self-employed free lancers rather than employees; there is nothing to stop the author from cutting out the middleman, or the author's agent from stepping in to fill that role. The best editorial help I ever got came not from a publisher but from my agent.
There remains one more function—filtering. The fact that a book has been published by a major publisher is no guarantee that it is worth reading but pretty good evidence that it is at least worth looking at. To finish the job of replacing the publishing industry, we need a substitute filter, a way in which readers can find, out of a million self-published books, the top ten thousand or so. My experience so far suggests that Amazon reviews are not adequate for the purpose; the novel that I self-published as a kindle has gotten reviews ranging from four to five stars, but sold few copies. We need something better.
My latest idea is to leverage the Kindle. Have Amazon get permission from Kindle owners to have their machines report, anonymously, on how long the owner spent reading each book on the machine. The longer the time spent, the better evidence that the book was, for that reader, worth reading. The rating algorithm should take account of differing book lengths and ignore books that were never looked at.
To make this work better, make downloading free for the first month, in order to increase the number of people who download each book and take at least a brief look at it. Once the month is up, the book price goes to whatever price the author chooses. A fancier version, probably not beyond the technology, is to make such a free book vanish from the Kindle a month after it is downloaded, leaving behind a link to where it can now be bought.
An even simpler approach would be to leverage the "sample the beginning of this book for free" option that Amazon already provides, implementing it in some form that lets Amazon find out how many of the readers who started the free sample finished it.
As its title suggests, this is not my first post on the subject. Readers interested in my previous suggestions for eliminating the publishing industry will find them here and here.
Fracking and Earthquakes: Bug or Feature?
According to a recent news story, there is good evidence that forcing water into deep wells, done (among other reasons) in the process of fracturing rock to get at natural gas, causes earthquakes. The story takes it for granted that this is an argument against fracking, but while that might be true, it is by no means obvious.
The energy for an earthquake has to come from somewhere, and I don't think the amount of energy that goes into pumping water underground can be close to enough. What is presumably happening is that pumping in the water causes the release of energy that is already there. Dissipating that energy might mean lots of small earthquakes instead of a small number of big ones, which would probably be a net benefit.
If so, what has been identified is not a bug but a feature.
Do any of my readers have more information on the subject?
Some years back, I had a post criticizing the widely cited (and often misrepresented) WHO study comparing medical care in a large number of countries. More recently, an online discussion resulted in someone pointing me at a book by Sheila Leatherman and Kim Sutherland, aimed mainly at evaluating the British National Health Service but with a number of international comparisons, in most cases among the U.S., UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Parts of the book are available online at Google Books.
"82% of UK respondents indicated that they were treated in [Accident and emergency] in less than four hours, a figure broadly in line with comparator countries (AUS 87%; CAN 74%; NZ 86%; US 87%).
"Patient reports of access to primary care within 48 hours saw the UK … outperform both the US and Canada" (Australia and New Zealand did still better).
I think these are all of the pieces of information shown that provide information on the relative performance of either the U.S., the U.K. (or in some cases England), or both, although I might have missed something. I am not including various input measures.
By my count, U.S. medical outcomes (including things such as speed of treatment) are superior to U.K. outcomes (in some case English outcomes) on five different measures, inferior on three. On two measures the U.K. (or England) is the worst of the five countries considered, on two the best; on three the U.S. is the best of the five (counting one tied for best), on none the worst.
There are four pure outcome measures, mortality and survival rates from various causes. The US was superior to the UK on all of them, best of the five countries on two. The UK was worst of the five countries on two.
The overall conclusion, based on this (very fragmentary) data, is that U.S. healthcare outcomes are on the whole better, not worse, than UK healthcare outcomes.
These results might change if I had a chance to look at the entire book. Unfortunately, neither the library at GMU, where I'm currently visiting, nor the library at SCU, where I teach, appears to have it. If by any chance someone reading this has access to the book, I would be interested in a more complete list of comparisons.
Two other points in the book struck me. Judged by per-capita spending on health the U.S. is the worst of the five, as I would expect, but North Ireland and Wales are close behind, which surprised me a little.
That's a charge often made against the English system by its critics and routinely denied by its supporters. In this case it is coming from authors whose speciality seems to be the study of NHS performance.
Regarding the invasions of Iraq and Aghanistan, she said, "Our national leaders are sending U.S. soldiers on a task that is from God."
"Pray for our military men and women who are striving to do what is right. Also, for this country, that our leaders, our national leaders, are sending [U.S. soldiers] out on a task that is from God," she exhorted the congregants. "That's what we have to make sure that we're praying for, that there is a plan and that that plan is God's plan."
What she is saying is not that the war is a task that is from God but that her listeners should pray that it is. She even says it twice over. Asking people to pray that something is true implies, not that you know it is true, but that you are afraid it might not be.
Reason converted "Pray that X is true" into "X is true." That is either incompetent journalism or a deliberate lie.
During the 2010 elections, I found I had a new hobby—defending Tea Party candidates from claims that they were nuttier than they actually were. One pleasant surprise was the discovery that the Huffington Post, at least in the cases I looked at (example), was a reliable source of information, even when reporting on people whose views they obviously disagreed with.
One unpleasant surprise was discovering, on Reason.com, words attributed to a candidate, given in quotation marks, which the candidate had not said. The author of the piece had altered both words and meaning. When I pointed that out to him by email he defended what he had written. The misquote was only corrected after I pointed it out to someone else at Reason.
I find it unfortunate that the leading libertarian magazine is a less reliable source of information than a leading publication on the other side.


1.) Go slow! Start out with a lot of easy running or even walking. With only 6 weeks to train at this point, you may be tempted to push hard every day to get in shape. That is a sure way to injury. Take it easy and push yourself a little further every day. Before you know it, you'll be running 5k's in your sleep and you'll be healthy.
2.) Be consistent. If you work out every day for a week and then take 10 days off, you've just lost everything you had gained in the first week. If you can only work out 3 days per week, at least stick to it. You'll notice results come quickly if you are consistent.
3.) Warm up, cool down, and stretch! By beginning your work outs with 10-15 minutes of light activity (if you can't talk while warming up, your working too hard), you will be more likely to avoid injury and your work out will seem easier. After your warm up, stretch for another 10-15 minutes. Once your work out is over, try to cool down for 10 minutes (same pace as your warm up) and stretch again. Even better, try to massage your muscles to stretch those muscle fibers. It helps push out harmful substances (like lactic acid) and, you guessed it, prevents injury later on.
4.) Dress appropriately for the weather. Especially during your warm up, your muscles are cold and more susceptible to injury. Keep those legs and arms covered until you are completely warmed up.
5.) Footwear is key. DO NOT RUN IN BOOTS! While boots have plenty of support (and are super stylish), they are horrible for running. Get some sneakers that fit well and provide plenty of cushioning. Your joints will thank you.
6.) Eat after you run. Your muscles are replenishing their stores of sugars and proteins right after your work out. Be sure to eat some protein and carbs (a ratio of 1g protein:4g carbs is suggested) within 1 hour of your work out to give your muscles what they need to stay healthy. Beware of high fructose corn syrup. The high concentration of fructose can prevent all of the sugars being absorbed and they may be converted to fat instead.
7.) As your work outs progress, begin to throw some short sprints in towards the end of the run. Running a little harder (not a full out sprint) will help train the different muscle fibers for that kick at the end of the triathlon.
8.) Pain in one place may mean a problem somewhere else. If your back hurts after every run, it may not be your back that has an issue. Problems in your ankles, knees, or other body parts may translate as pain in a different area. Really examine your routine and make improvements everywhere (more stretch time, less bounce in your run, better shoes, etc…) to feel better overall.
9.) Have a vision. Why are you running? While beating Team EE in the Triathlon is a good goal, that isn't the reason you're running, is it? Find your reason and use it for motivation.
10.) Just in case you didn't get it before, AVOID INJURY. It's better to progress slowly and allow your body to adjust than it is to push too hard and get hurt. Once you're injured, it is that much harder to be consistent in your training and make progress.
One of the best things that came out of this session was the origin of the word competition. When broken down, it means "to strive with." We hope that you find someone to strive with as we all work towards our personal goals of wellness and happiness. If you have any questions about running or fast- and slow-twitch muscle fibers, please feel free to contact Austin Mandryk at amandryk@frostvalley.org or (845) 985-2291 ext. 212. And don't forget to contact Katie Taylor or Laura Johnson about the swimming training Thursday, April 3, at the Kingston YMCA. We'll let you know when Ben Snyder will be presenting on biking and training for triathlons.


When it comes to digital advertising, automation just makes sense. Brands need to engage an enormous (and growing) pool of customers through dozens of channels and platforms, and they need to do so in a way that feels authentic and personalised. There's simply no way to achieve this manually.
But automation isn't just about working faster. Marketers have (understandably) focused on short-term wins like efficiency and cost-cutting, with obvious ROI considerations, but these only account for 80% of the full potential automation can deliver. The remaining 20% is where the magic happens, where brands begin to look at how they be more creative in the way their strategy to deliver digital experiences.
Even if companies have automated their processes, few have adapted these processes to a digital audience. Speeding up outdated ways of working may help them reach more customers, but it won't make their content more creative or relevant. That's why programmatic advertising still delivers mixed results. We have nailed right time, right person but are still missing "right message" to round out the trio.
This is now changing. With Artificial Intelligence (AI) now becoming a more common tool in the ad-tech arsenal, we've reached a tipping point for automation. AI brings real-time context to customer data and targeting, which means brands can create automated experiences that are more relevant and that constantly adapt to each customer's behaviour. Take Virgin Holidays, which has seen audience engagement improve jump 1.5x by taking a more personalised approach to automated content.
For some, AI and automation are just another bunch of new technologies, but in order to take advantage of them, brands need a culture and data management approach to match.
One of the biggest blockers to using automation (or any marketing technology) in an integrated way is a lack of cohesion between teams. Marketing, Sales, and IT have traditionally had their own objectives, giving them little incentive to help one another reach their KPIs.
It takes an imperative from the boardroom and managers to stop the departmental empire-building and align their teams with a single collective vision. This also requires an education piece so that everyone understands why automation is the answer and is invested in making an integrated approach work.
With Marketing, Sales and IT bought into the value of automation, the next step is to ensure each team can collect and draw insight from the same pool of data in a single, consistent format.
Finally, it's important to remember that targeting and personalisation only work if your message is relevant. Before reaching out to a customer, brands need to be honest with themselves about whether that person will care. And if so, they need to determine how often to contact them.
We've all been served adverts for products we've already purchased, or for ones we bought as a gift that we'd never buy for ourselves. This is another area where AI can support automated advertising, drawing on each customer's clicking patterns and online activity to help brands make informed decisions about who to target and when.
Brands have benefited greatly from automation so far, but they've been using it in the same as manufacturers or financial analysts – to speed up simple processes without thinking of how it can actually enhance the customer experience. By combining automation with AI, they can finally differentiate themselves by taking advantage of automation's unique value for digital advertising.
Adobe's AI and automation solutions are purpose-built for the needs of digital marketers. And unlike most other AI technologies, you don't need expertise in Machine Learning or in-depth analytics to use them.

Caring for mature skin
As time passes this body calls for new measures to stay hydrated.
Today, especially when entering their forties, to resort to special foods to lower cholesterol, maintain a normal pressure and achieve good blood circulation is one of the priorities when it comes to caring for the body. However, during this stage the skin, the largest organ in the human body also needs a specialized diet that respects its special to look and feel healthy.
The passage of time and continuous exposure to external aggression, exposure to sunlight, pollution, snuff, poor diet and stress, diminish quality of life and weaken the skin's natural defenses. Added to this are the natural changes that suffers, causing loss of firmness and elasticity, without a doubt one of the first signs of aging.
However, reverse these effects on the skin can be achieved through treatments that nourish, hydrate and nourish ie the skin according to your specific needs: age, skin type, time of day and the face area.
Food plays an important role in overall health and appearance of the skin, as it may be affected as a result of an imbalance. So, in addition to eating a balanced diet rich in whole grains, fruits, vegetables and healthy fats, vital complement face care with specialized treatment with key nutrients.
Restores firmness and elasticity of your skin
Upon reaching 40 years of age, the skin begins to experience different changes that result in the loss of firmness and elasticity. This is because the natural process of skin regeneration that has been making slow from 30 years, more accentuated at 40 and the binding sites of natural fibers that form the "mesh" support wear quickly , making it lose its structure and creating wrinkles.
However, to reverse these effects, the most important thing is to use a specialized treatment that serves as a nutrient and moisturizer to work "inside out", protecting and helping to restore vital junctions of the epidermis to regain its appearance firm and elastic. In this way the skin maintain its healthy look.

Andrew Luck: I feel as good as ever entering camp
By Chris Wesseling
Around the NFL Writer
Published: July 26, 2016 at 03:09 p.m.
Updated: July 26, 2016 at 05:23 p.m.
Ranking the NFL's deepest position groups in 2019: Which loaded unit's No. 1?
What to watch Friday
There's reason to believe Andrew Luck was never fully healthy at any point in a disappointing 2015 season.
He missed two early-season games with an injury to his throwing shoulder, played through torn cartilage in two of his ribs and went down with a lacerated kidney at midseason.
Going all the way back to the season opener we saw a quarterback with waning arm strength and shaky pocket presence, suggesting Luck was hiding an injury he never revealed.
"Personally, I know I wasn't playing well, whether I was injured or not," Luck recently acknowledged to the Indianapolis Star. "I have some thoughts, but I don't want to share them. I wasn't doing a good job and it's no one else's fault but mine."
As banged up as Luck was throughout last season, it's fair to wonder if he's back to 100 percent entering Indianapolis Colts camp this week.
"I feel great, I feel as good as I've ever felt going into a training camp," Luck told NFL Media's Stacey Dales. "Strength staff, conditioning staff and trainers, we've put a lot of work in this offseason and ... that's helped me and all the guys a lot, feel great, can't wait to go."
Now that Luck is fully healthy, the pressure is on the overhauled offensive line to keep him upright after watching him take more hits than any NFL quarterback over the past three seasons.
"It falls on us," left tackle Anthony Castonzo conceded, via Dales on Tuesday's edition of Inside Training Camp Live. "We want our quarterback to be able to sit back in the pocket and smoke a cigarette."
As underwhelming as last season was, the Colts understand they are no longer consensus favorites in a rising AFC South.
"We have an edge about us," Luck told Dales.
That jibes with owner Jim Irsay's assessment of his quarterback this summer.
"I've never seen him more motivated," Irsay recently said. "That fire is in his eye in a special way."

OK...I am with my family on the most beautiful tropical island! The breezes from the Indian Ocean cool the home while the dense foliage of a rain forest behind the house soaks in the sunshine of another day. The temperatures right now range from 70-90, and sitting in the shade, I enjoy all the beauty of blues and greens in God's creation.
As soon as I walked out the airport doors, with luggage and visa in hand, I heard familiar voices guessing if they would find me quickly or have to wait. I called out and 3 jubilant little girls ran toward me with the best hugs ever! After a long 37 hours, I was once again with loved ones!
The city was bustling around me, but I could only concentrate on the chatter that filled the mini van. The girls' anticipation of my arrival stored up all sorts of things they had to tell me and show me! I tried to exclaim over every little story, while trying to take in my surroundings, but have to admit that days without sleep and the warmth of the sun also was claiming my tired head. To overcome jet lag, I hoped to stay awake the entire day and only let sleep overtake me 12 hours later, when the island's darkness would envelope my surroundings.
I unpacked my suitcases with 3 bouncing, enthusiastic girls sitting on my bed. They were very curious over what I would pull out, and what surprises I brought from the states.
In a past post, I mentioned some homemade surprises, so let me show them to you now.
First, I made each of the girls a Teddy Bear Place Mat for their dining table. Each bear held a yellow napkin, matching the linen napkin set I made for their mom, and wore a different bow.
They immediately placed these bear faces at their dinner places, and enjoyed them for several meals before they needed to be laundered.
These were a great hit.
Next, the littlest one received a plastic bag of finger puppet animals. I found these awesome animal felt prints and just had to make something cute with them.
There are giraffes, tigers, cows, monkeys, pigs, hippos, zebras, and lions.
More than enough for her fingers, or to share with others who want to join her in play.
I made the background on blue flannel, placing an ark with a deep pocket to hold all the animals.
They can also stick anywhere on the flannel to entertain our littlest one as she pretends they are swimming, flying, or being collected for the pocket. She loves walking around with all her fingers carrying the assortment.
The finished background rolls very small and be tied tightly, keeping the animals snugly tucked in the ark. So, for the littlest one and her friends, I hope these finger puppets fill many hours of play, and maybe some acting out this story by the older ones, giving them some enjoyment, too.
The 2 older girls tried on all the finger puppets, and loved the idea of a Noah's Ark Roll-Up, but their anticipation of what other cool things Grandma could pull out of her big suitcase made them struggle to settle on just playing with littlest one.
So, I pulled out 2 home-made NOTION KEEPERS which I had filled with sewing tools. We often talked on Skype of how much fun it would be to sew together, so I tried to think of age-aware projects these keepers could hold. I filled the pockets with the beginnings of a project and the tools they might need. For one, I chose things made with purple, and for the other, I chose pink tools.
As soon as the treasures of each pocket were found, the projects needed to be started immediately. A sigh escaped each girl when their mom reminded them that the long flight had probably made Grandma a little tired.
Reluctantly, the projects were tucked back in their pockets for an hour or two so that I could get my bearings and unpack my clothes.
I LOVE THEM! Is your next stop at my house? My little GBs sure would love those placemats! You should do a tutorial on how you put those all together!
Enjoy your time with them...I know they are thrilled to have you there!

US businesses call for liability relief during pandemic recovery
By Jenny Lescohier28 May 2020
US businesses are banding together in an appeal to Congress for temporary and targeted liability relief legislation related to the Covid-19 pandemic.
US businesses express concern over draining effects of potential lawsuits
The US Chamber of Commerce drafted a coalition letter sent to lawmakers on 27 May asking for what it considers crucial protections to safeguard businesses, non-profit organisations, and educational institutions, as well as healthcare providers and facilities, from unfair lawsuits so they can continue to contribute to a safe and effective recovery from the current health and economic crisis.
Among the more than 200 organisations that have signed the letter are Associated Builders and Contractors, Associated General Contractors of America, Associated Equipment Distributors, Associated Equipment Manufacturers and the American Rental Association.
In a statement to its membership, Associated Builders and Contractors said the liability relief legislation would protect:
Businesses, nonprofit organizations and educational institutions that work to follow applicable public health guidelines against Covid-19 exposure claims;
Healthcare workers and facilities providing critical Covid-19-related care and services;
Manufacturers, donors, distributors and users of vaccines, therapeutics, medical devices, PPE, and other supplies (such as hand sanitizer and cleaning supplies) that are critical to the Covid-19 response; and
Public companies targeted by unfair and opportunistic Covid-19-related securities lawsuits.
"While liability legislation has not been included in the relief packages introduced or passed so far, the US Senate has continued to work towards legislation that would establish liability protection for businesses from Covid-19 lawsuits as more states start to reopen businesses and essential work continues throughout the country," the ABC statement read.
The US Chamber of Commerce letter pointed out that many businesses have swiftly shifted gears to assist in the fight against the novel coronavirus.
"From front-line medical professionals treating the afflicted and pharmaceutical companies racing to develop treatments and cures, to distillers producing alcohol-based hand sanitisers and manufacturers transforming their operations to construct vital personal protective equipment (PPE) and ventilators, to those providing a stable food supply, American businesses have rallied to help our country endure and emerge from this crisis," the letter stated. "Many businesses also have had to shut their doors and absorb enormous losses for the sake of public health and are now looking for a path to reopen."
The letter goes on to express concern that as those workers and businesses work to keep communities safe and provide for the American people while following applicable guidelines, they will be forced to defend against an onslaught of lawsuits.
"The prospect of such litigation and associated exorbitant legal costs are a deterrent to reopening," the coalition stated. "Further, this litigation could devastate those entities that are just beginning to reopen their doors or have kept them open throughout the crisis.
"Absent a targeted safe harbor for those that work to follow applicable guidelines, the fear and uncertainty from boundless liability threatens to impede our country's social and economic recovery."
Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has warned that looming lawsuits related to the coronavirus could crush the nation's recovery efforts going forward, according to news reports. Republican proposals would limit liability for certain eligible companies that have resumed in-person operations, provided that businesses follow existing safety and health guidelines specific to Covid-19.
Republicans have said they won't support the next relief bill if it doesn't include corporate immunity, while Democrats, despite being critical, have not ruled out supporting it.
Stephen E. Sandherr, chief executive officer of Associated General Contractors of America (AGC), recently stated more needs to be done to protect firms from limitless litigation.
"It is encouraging to see House Democrats moving quickly on legislation intended to help the economy recover from the coronavirus," he said in a statement. "But [so far] the proposal's authors missed an opportunity to address some of the most significant challenges facing the [construction] industry."

Abstract : In this talk, I will explain how to extend classical mean field methods to study the control and the optimal control of large stochastic systems. I will first show that as the number of objects of the system grows, solving an optimal control problem for a stochastic system can be reduced to the solving of a deterministic optimization problem. Then, I will present how to study the limiting behavior of the controlled system using di fferential inclusions. In practice, this allows one to easily evaluate the performance of a policy and provide a way to asymptotically solve problems that used to be intractable. Some examples will be provided, illustrating these facts.


Not the kind of changes we players were expecting but ok.
I just hope the new ones will be serious people.
Well good luck to Adiutor and Kriton, they seemed like nice people.
And 2 more out. Still missing Mugen.
Not even a "thank you" they were helpful and answering to everyone on discord.
Good luck to Kriton and Adiutor.
Can we at least get some information? Something other than "it's confidential" talk.
I am sorry we couldn't give you a positive answer.
The post was edited 1 time, last by Voar ( Dec 14th 2018 ).
I'm just gonna throw one question, was it needed?
I'm surprised no one yet has commented on the way this was handled, at least from an outsider perspective.
The removal of Kriton's technomancer role before the actual 'kick' was suspicious. Are we supposed to "understand" this, Yorem? Having to wait a whole day for something on this topic? Is this another thing to "understand" especially for Kriton. Because if I had to wait a whole day for someone to respond with a reason as to why once you got the ball rolling is pretty frustrating.
And the sudden announcement that another GM was going to be kicked? Well apparently we have to swallow that too without excuse.
In all how can a person understand without much information to go by. The wording of this is inaccurate and if it's supposed to be something formal, this whole situation is not.
I'm also blown away by the fact that it's saying these two got kicked and then "oh, great to look at these new recruits". Volunteering for a game for so many years (I cannot stress how to emphasis this word enough), seems to be the way that you'll be treated.
Here's to another GM to get kicked.
Lol what is going on with the deleted messages!
If you are unsatisfied with the actions of the team, please share your objective criticism in an appropriate form.
Truth hurts , that is the reason he deleted it like a 5-year old kid.
Actually Yorem is a "she".
Idc what it is, it can even be a Helicopter.
What was the point of doing that? The game is pretty much dead, you should focus on fixing the issues not getting rid of the staff, you know what they say, and old evil is better than a new one. You guys keep doing these useless things while people run around crashing servers. The game literally went down from 1k people to 100 in one month yet no GM, CM or PM cares to even bring that up or discuss it with the community. You hang around the discord server in the secret voice chats, you do not speak to the english community even though you are part English CM as well. Give information about the current situation to everyone in english, we all deserve it not only a small population of this community.
What a pity that great GM's have retired, thanks for their services really were excellent GM's.
I repeat because sOmEoNe deleted my message.
Thank you Kriton and Adiutor for every contribution. Thank you for actually helping people.
Bring back the pirate , at least he cared a little abous us and the game.
Like I said in the previous post that was deleted by the snowflake, this company are just a bunch of complete idiots.
Well, in my opinion we didn't. I still don't think this was necessary or reasonable.
But if you need some different admin from different country you can count me in.

Aryna Sabalenková (, Aryna Sjarhejevna Sabalenka; * 5. května 1998 Minsk) je běloruská profesionální tenistka. Na grandslamu zvítězila ve dvouhře Australian Open 2023 a s Elise Mertensovou ovládla čtyřhry na US Open 2019 a Australian Open 2021. Ve finále Turnaje mistryň 2022 podlehla Caroline Garciaové. V roce 2021 byla světovou jedničkou ve čtyřhře, kterou se stala jako čtyřicátá čtvrtá od zavedení klasifikace v roce 1984 a druhá Běloruska po Nataše Zverevové. Na čele strávila šest týdnů.

Ve své dosavadní kariéře na okruhu WTA Tour vyhrála dvanáct turnajů ve dvouhře a šest ve čtyřhře včetně Sunshine double 2019. Po jedné singlové i deblové trofeji vybojovala na turnajích série WTA 125. V rámci okruhu ITF získala pět titulů ve dvouhře a jeden ve čtyřhře.

Na žebříčku WTA byla ve dvouhře nejvýše klasifikována v srpnu 2021 na 2. místě a ve čtyřhře v únoru téhož roku na 1. místě. Trénuje ji Anton Dubrov, před ním ji trénovali Dmitrij Tursunov a Didi Kindlmann.

V běloruském týmu Billie Jean King Cupu debutovala v roce 2016 baráží světové skupiny proti Rusku, v němž za rozhodnutého stavu prohrála s Olgou Govorcovou závěrečnou čtyřhru proti páru Darja Kasatkinová a Jelena Vesninová. Bělorusky přesto zvítězily 3:2 na zápasy. Ve světovém finále 2017 plnila roli jedničky týmu proti Spojeným státům. Američanky si z Minsku odvezly trofej po výhře 3:2 na zápasy. Do roku 2024 v soutěži nastoupila k devíti mezistátním utkáním s bilancí 10–6 ve dvouhře a 1–4 ve čtyřhře.

Během kariéry třikrát porazila úřadující světovou jedničku. První dvě výhry získala proti Ashleigh Bartyové na Wuhan Open 2019 a Madrid Open 2021. Třetí zaznamenala nad Igou Świątekovou na Turnaji mistryň 2022, kde se po sestrách Williamsových stala třetí hráčkou ve 21. století, která na jediném turnaji zdolala všechny členky první světové trojky.

V sezóně 2018 ji Ženská tenisová asociace vyhlásila nováčkem roku.

Tenisová kariéra
V rámci hlavních soutěží dvouhry událostí okruhu ITF debutovala v červnu 2014, když na turnaj v rodném Minsku s dotací 10 tisíc dolarů obdržela divokou kartu. V úvodním kole podlehla krajance Palině Dubavecové. Premiérový singlový titul v této úrovni tenisu vybojovala v září 2015 na antalyjském turnaji s rozpočtem deset tisíc dolarů. Ve finále přehrála Rumunku Daianu Negreanuovou po dvousetovém průběhu. O týden později přidala na témže místě druhou trofej, když v závěrečném duelu přehrála další Rumunku Nicoletu Dascăluovou.

Průlom do elitní stovky žebříčku WTA učinila ve vydání ze 16. října 2017, když se posunula ze 102. na 76. místo.

V kvalifikaci singlu okruhu WTA Tour debutovala na dubnovém Grand Prix SAR La Princesse Lalla Meryem 2016 v marockém Rabatu. Na úvod kvalifikační soutěže zdolala Francouzku Mathilde Johanssonovou, aby ji poté cestu do dvouhry uzavřela porážka od Nizozemky Richèl Hogenkampové. Již o týden dříve nastoupila do čtyřhry baráže světové skupiny Fed Cupu 2016 proti Rusku, z níž odešla po boku Govorcovové poražena. Jednalo se o její první zápas počítaný do okruhu WTA Tour. Premiérové utkání v hlavní soutěži této profesionální túry si pak zahrála na únorovém Dubai Tennis Championships 2017 z kategorie Premier 5 po zvládnuté kvalifikaci. Ve třech setech však na úvod nestačila na Ukrajinku Katerynu Bondarenkovou.

Do semifinále poprvé nahlédla na uzbeckém Tashkent Open 2017, kde ji zastavila druhá nasazená Maďarka Tímea Babosová. Do debutového finále se pak probojovala během říjnového Tianjin Open 2017 v Tchien-ťinu, když zvládla duel s Italkou Sarou Erraniovou vracející se po dvouměsíčním dopingovém trestu. Ve finále ji porazila bývalá světová jednička z Ruska Maria Šarapovová po dvousetovém průběhu. Devatenáctiletá Sabalenková přitom nezužitkovala vedení 4–1 na gamy v prvním a 5–1 na gamy ve druhém setu.

Do kvalifikace grandslamu poprvé nahlédla během US Open 2016. Ve druhé fázi podlehla Lucemburčance Mandy Minellaové. Debut v hlavní soutěži pak zaznamenala po překonání kvalifikačního síta v ženském singlu Wimbledonu 2017. První vítězný zápas dosáhla v duelu s Ruskou Irinou Chromačovovou. Následně ji přehrála německá tenistka Carina Witthöftová po třísetovém průběhu.

V minském finále Fed Cupu 2017 proti Spojeným státům byla běloruskou jedničkou. Z pozice 78. hráčky žebříčku v sobotním singlu překvapivě zdolala úřadující vítězku US Open a světovou třináctku Sloane Stephensovou. Za vyrovnaného stavu 1–1 na zápasy otevřela nedělní program porážkou od desáté ženy klasifikace Coco Vandewegheové. Po výhře Bělorusky Sasnovičové rozhodla o vítězkách soutěže až závěrečná čtyřhřa, do níž nastoupila s Aljaksandrou Sasnovičovou. Běloruská dvojice však nenašla recept na Američanky Shelby Rogersovou s Vandewegheovou.

Na letních severoamerických betonech v roce 2018 porazila během montréalského Rogers Cupu světovou dvojku Caroline Wozniackou. Ve třetím kole ji však zastavila Belgičanka Elise Mertensová. Navazující týden se objevila na Western & Southern Open v Cincinnati, na němž vyřadila Johannu Kontaovou, turnajovou devítku Karolínu Plíškovou, světovou pětku Caroline Garciaovou i čtrnáctou nasazenou Madison Keysovou. Až v semifinále nestačila na první ženu klasifikace Simonu Halepovou. Premiérovou trofej z túry WTA vybojovala jako dvacetiletá na srpnovém Connecticut Open 2018 v New Havenu, kde do finále prošla po výhře nad světovou devítkou Julií Görgesovou. V boji o titul zdolala španělskou tenistku Carlu Suárezovou Navarrovou po dvousetovém průběhu. Zisk 470 bodů ji poprvé posunul do elitní světové dvacítky žebříčku WTA, jejž uzavírala 20. místem. Ve finále Wuhan Open 2018 z kategorie Premier 5 přehrála estonskou tenistku Anett Kontaveitovou po dvousetovém průběhu, když nečelila žádné brejkové hrozbě. Týden po zisku druhé kariérní trofeje vypadla ve čtvrtfinále China Open 2018 s Wang Čchiang a body jí zajistily průnik na 11. příčku klasifikace.

S Belgičankou Elise Mertensovou vyhrály čtyřhru na BNP Paribas Open 2019 a Miami Open 2019. Staly se tak historicky pátou dvojicí, která zvítězila na obou březnových amerických turnajích v jedné sezóně, označovaných za "Sunshine double". Jako pár odehrály teprve druhý a třetí turnaj. Premiérové grandslamové finále si zahrála v ženské čtyřhře US Open 2019, do níž nastoupila s Mertensovou. Ve finále přehrály bělorusko-australské turnajové osmičky Viktoriji Azarenkovou s Ashleigh Bartyovou po zvládnutých koncovkách obou setů. Třetí deblový titul na okruhu WTA Tour znamenal posun na 6. místo žebříčku WTA ve čtyřhře. V sezóně 2019 přidala dvě trofeje z dvouhry, když v obou finále porazila Američanku Alison Riskeovou. Nejdříve na lednovém Shenzhen Open a poté na zářijovém Wuhan Open, kde i druhý start proměnila v titul..

2021: Světová jednička ve čtyřhře a dvojka ve dvouhře
Sezónu otevřela na premiérově zařazeném turnaji v Abú Zabí, kde navázala na sérii výher z podzimu předchozího roku. Cestou turnajem ztratila jedinou sadu, kterou jí odebrala ve čtvrtfinále Jelena Rybakinová. Ve finále povolila jenom dvě hry Rusce Veronice Kuděrmetovovou a díky patnácté výhře v řadě získala devátý kariérní titul. Bodový zisk také znamenal premiérový posun na 7. místo žebříčku WTA. Šňůru neporazitelnosti jí ukončika ve druhém kole meblournského Gippsland Trophy Estonka Kaia Kanepiová.

Na Australian Open zaznamenala podruhé v kariéře postup do druhého týdne grandslamu, když navázala na osmifinále z US Open 2018. V boji o čtvrtfinále však nestačila na turnajovou desítku Serenu Williamsovou. Lépe si vedla ve ženské čtyřhře, kde po boku Elise Mertensové získaly finálovou výhrou nad Češkami Krejčíkovou a Siniakovou druhý společný grandslamový triumf, díky čemuž se v následném vydání deblové klasifikace posunula jako 44. hráčka v historii a druhá Běloruska po Nataše Zverevové na 1. místo. Přesto však po turnaji uvedla, že neplánuje ve spolupráci dlouhodobě pokračovat, jelikož se chce soustředit primárně na dvouhru.

Mírný pokles formy představovaly turnaje na Arabském poloostrově. Jako obhájkyně titulu prohrála již v prvním zápase na Qatar Total Open, když nestačila na Garbiñe Muguruzaovou, a na stejnou soupeřku nestačila ve čtvrtfinále o týden později Dubaji. Španělka na obou turnajích dokázala dojít do finále, a dubajský podnik dokonce celý ovládla.

Na květnovém Mutua Madrid Open postoupila přes Elise Mertensovou a Anastasiji Pavljučenkovovou do finále. V něm zdolala australskou světovou jedničku Ashleigh Bartyovou po třísetovém průběhu. V prvním setu, který trval 26 minut, jí nadělila "kanára". Výhrou jí oplatila dva týdny starou porážku z boje o titul na Porsche Tennis Grand Prix ve Stuttgartu a finále na březnovém Miami Open, čímž získala první antukový titul. Bodový zisk ji premiérově posunul do elitní světové pětky na čtvrté místo. Na French Open nepotvrdila roli favoritky, když dohrála již ve třetím kole po prohře od Pavljučenkovové.

Grandslamový průlom přišel v Londýně ve Wimbledonu, kde při absenci Ósakaové a Halepové plnila roli turnajoví dvojky. Postupně přehrála Niculescuovou, domácí divokou kartu Boulterovou, kvalifikantku Osoriovou Serranovpu, 18. nasazenou Rybakinovou, když od stavu her 3–3 v rozhodující sadě vyhrála 12 posledních míčů. aby poprvé postoupila do čtvrtfinále grandslamu. V něm na její raketě dohrála i Ons Džabúrová. Postupem do semifinále se stala po Zverevové a Azarenkové třetí Běloruskou v této fázi turnaje. V boji o finále proti Karolíně Plíškové získala sice úvodní set díky prvnímu využitému brejkbolu v zápase po dvojchybě Češky, v dalších setech si už žádnou takovou další šanci nevypracovala a sama jednou v každém setu o podání přišla, což znamenalo první prohru proti Plíškové. Obě hráčky dohromady v zápase zahrály celkem 32 es, což znamenalo nový wimbledonský rekord. Bodový zisk znamenal posun na kariérní maximum 3. místo.

Bělorusko reprezentovala v přeložené tokijské olympiádě, kam zasáhla do ženské dvouhry. Ve druhém kole prohrála s Chorvatkou Donnou Vekićovou, když nezvládla zkrácenou hru rozhodující setu.

Jako nejvýše nasazená zasáhla do National Bank Open hraném v Montreálu. Cestou do semifinále jí jediný set odebrala v druhém kole Sloane Stephensová. V semifinále znovu po měsíci nestačila na Plíškovou, tentokrát ve dvou setech. I přes prohru v úvodní zápase na navazujícím Western & Southern Open od Pauly Badosové v tiebreaku třetího setu se posunula po turnaji na druhou příčku světové klasifikace.

Canadian TV Personality Attacks 'Left-Wing' Kooks
6:28 PM PST 12/8/2010 by Etan Vlessing
VIDEO: Hockey icon Don "Grapes" Cherry makes headlines by ripping liberal media at the Toronto mayoral inauguration.
TORONTO -- Talk about sour grapes: Canadian TV hockey commentator Don "Grapes" Cherry is in hot water after he lashed out a "left-wing pinkos" Tuesday during an inauguration ceremony for Toronto mayor Rob Ford.
Cherry took the microphone at city hall after ushering Ford into the council chambers and immediately took aim at the mainstream media for long-standing criticism of his brash, opinionated on-camera delivery. (Watch video below.)
"You know, it's funny in those articles, my church, I was made fun of cause I go to church, I'm easy to do it that way," Cherry, a former Boston Bruins coach before becoming a long-time pundit on the CBC's Hockey Night in Canada broadcast.
"And I was called maudlin for the troops because I honour the troops, this is the kind of stuff you're going to be facing Rob with these left-wing pinkos. They scrape the bottom of the barrel," he continued.
Cherry, who has politicized the CBC's Hockey Night in Canada telecast by featuring long tributes to fallen Canadian troops in Afghanistan and endorsing conservative political candidates, also explained why he wore a brash pink suit to the Ford inauguration.
"I've been being ripped to shreds by the left-wing pinko newspapers out there. It's unbelievable. One guy called me a jerk in a pink suit so I thought I'd wear that for him too today," he said.
Toronto councilors immediately criticized Cherry for taking aim at his "left-wing" critics in his address.
"I don't think you belittle people in a public ceremony like this, I think it's unacceptable," Councillor Adam Vaughan, a former TV reporter, said.
"Yes I felt insulted by it, I think many of us felt insulted by it," Councillor Joe Mihevc added.
Cherry's tendency to both entertain and insult TV viewers has made his Coaches Corner segment on Hockey Night in Canada the most-watched seven minutes on Canadian TV each week.
During the segment, Cherry regularly criticizes French-speaking Quebecers as "whiners," lambasts European hockey players for being slow to drop the gloves and fight, and Americans for ruining the National Hockey League.
The CBC, Canada's public broadcaster, regularly reminds Cherry's critics that the TV commentator is under contract, and not a network employee, and so can freely run his mouth off.
The Canadian hockey icon also had a parting shot for his critics Tuesday.
"Put that in your pipes, you left-wing kooks," he said, before ending his colorful address.

Remembering IM Bob Wade OBE (10-iv-1921 29-xi-2008)
November 29, 2020 John Upham	Leave a comment
IM Bob Wade
We remember IM Robert Graham Wade OBE who passed away on November 29th, 2008.
In 1979 Queen's Birthday Honours List, Civil Division Bob Wade was awarded the OBE. The citation read simply : "For services to Chess"
He won the BCF Presidents's Award in 1986.
In the Foreword to the 2009 ECF Yearbook, President Gerry Walsh wrote :
"As I started this report I had just heard the sad news that IM Bob Wade had died aged 87. I first met Bob at one of the Whitby Congresses and in 1972 he played in the Teeside GM Tournament where I recall he beat the three Hungarian players Portisch, Bilek and Sax (ed : aged 51)."
Geurt Gijssen wrote in Chesscafe.com :
"I received the sad news that Bob Wade passed away at the age of eighty seven. He played his last tournament in London in August. When I was young I read about his exploits as a chess player, and he was the arbiter in many important chess events. I met him in 1993 when I was the organizer of the first part of the match Karpov – Timman, played in The Netherlands in three different cities: Zwolle, Arnhem, and Amsterdam. He was the only member of the Appeals Committee and Bob was always present watching the games in the playing hall. He gave me invaluable advice about all elements of the match venues. It was very clear that he was an experienced chess player and arbiter, and I learned many things from him. May he rest in peace."
From the 1952 Ilford Congress (30 May – 2 June) and originally published in BCM, July 1952, page 187. (l-r) : Harold Israel, Alan Phillips, Bob Wade, Otto Friedman, Abe Yanofsky, Alfred William Bowen and Harold Meek. Thanks to John Saunders and Leonard Barden
Wade was Southern Counties (SCCU) champion for the 1956-57, 1957-58 and 1964-65 seasons.
From the Preface of The World Chess Championship : 1951 by Lionel Sharples Penrose we have :
"Mr. Wade is also passionately devoted to the game. Before coming to Europe, he was three times champion of New Zealand. He had played in tournaments in England but his chief successes have been on the Continent. At Venice in 1950, he obtained a high place in a very severe contest in which some of the strongest Russia, Czech, Dutch, French, Italian, North and South American players took part. Much of his time is occupied in chess organising and teaching. He is an acting vice-president of the F.I.D.É and in this official capacity he attended the match in Moscow, which is the subject of this book."
Simon Spivack & Paul McKeown have researched the earliest part of Bob's life as follows:
"On May 20th, 1919, Thomas Graham Wade, aged 27, Sergeant in the NZ Expeditionary Force, repatriated with honour from war-time service in Egypt, Gallipoli and France, married Amy Lilian Neave, aged 21, in South Dunedin. A New Zealander of Scots and English descent, his family was Graham from Montrose. The family name, Wade, came from Marshall George Wade, the soldier and engineer who led the Hanoverian forces against the Scots at the time of the 1745 Jacobite Rebellion and was immortalised in the original third verse of the British national anthem:
Lord, grant that Marshal Wade,
May by thy mighty aid,
Victory bring.
May he sedition hush and like a torrent rush,
Rebellious Scots to crush,
God save the King.
Robert Graham Wade, known in the Scots manner to his family as Robin, and later to his many friends as Bob, was their first child, born April 10th, 1921, at Dunedin. Over the next few years he was joined by sisters, Lilian, Agnes, Betty, June, his brother Ted and finally by his youngest sister Amy. The family lived for a number of years at Portobello.
At that time, Portobello was a scattered community of about 150 people with three shops and a pub on the Otago Peninsula. Bob attended Portobello Primary School, a small country school, finished "dux" or top of class, and then attended the King Edward Technical High School at Stuart Street in Dunedin."
In The Oxford Companion to Chess (OUP, 1984 & 1996), Hooper & Whyld:
"Wade Variation, 147, also known as the Modern Variation, in the Queen's Gambit Declined, Meran Variation, from Bogoljubow-Wade, Oldenburg, 1949;

Hooper & Whyld go on to write :
"New Zealand-born Robert Graham Wade (1921- ) won the championship of his homeland three times before moving to England as a young man, He won the British Championship twice and trained many English players."
Aside from the two variations mentioned by Hooper & Whyld there are other Wade Variations :
rn1qkbnr/ppp1pppp/3p4/8/3P2b1/5N2/PPP1PPPP/RNBQKB1R w KQkq - 0 1
which Jim Plaskett dubbed the "Sidestep Variation"
rnb1kbnr/ppp1pppp/3q4/8/8/2N5/PPPP1PPP/R1BQKBNR w KQkq - 0 1
which is the Pytel-Wade Variation of the Scandinavian Defence.
Anne Sunnucks wrote in The Encyclopedia of Chess (Robert Hale, 1970 & 1976) :
"International Master (1950 Ed: actually 1954), International Judge (1958), New Zealand Champion three times and British Champion in 1952 and 1970.
Bob Wade was born in New Zealand on 10th April 1921 and is a professional chess player. He has lived in England for many years and has played regularly for the British Chess Federation team in Chess Olympiads. He has played a prominent part in coaching schemes for juniors and is largely responsible for recent successes of English juniors in international events.
Bob Wade v. Aldecoa of the Philippines from the 1958 Munich Olympiad played on October 9th 1958. The game was won by Bob in 60 moves. From the collection of David Jarrett with many thanks.
He is chess correspondent of Associated Newspapers and Independent Television News and editor of a series of books on Contemporary Chess Openings published by Batsford.
Author of a number of books on the game, his publications include books on the World Championship of 1951, 1957 (ed : this book was, in fact, by Golombek) and 1963, the first in collaboration with W. Winter; The Closed Ruy Lopez (Batsford, 1970) in collaboration with LS Blackstock and PJ Booth: World Chess Championship (Batsford, 1972) in collaboration with S.Gligoric; Games of RJ Fischer (Batsford, 1972) in collaboration with KJ O'Connell and Soviet Chess (Neville Spearman, 1968).
Wade was a member of the FIDE Laws Commission from 1950 to 1952."
From The Encyclopedia of Chess (Batsford, 1977), Harry Golombek OBE :
"International Master who was born at Dunedin, New Zealand, but came to live In England in 1946 and has represented both countries on different occasions. He has nearly always done well in British Championships and won the title in Chester in 1952 and again at Coventry in 1970. He had played for the British Chess Federation at the Olympiads of 1954, 1956, 1958, 1960 and 1962, winning the shortest game of the Varna Olympiad in that year in nine moves against Anton Kinzel of Austria

He played for the New Zealand team at the 1970 Olympiad at Siegen but returned to the BCF team at Skopje in 1972.
His best individual international results were a fifth place at Venice 1950 and again fifth at the Masters section of the Capablanca Memorial at Cienfuegos in Cuba in 1975. Possessor of a sharp clear-cut style of play, he once drew a match with the West German grandmaster Lothar Schmid with neither side drawing a game, though this was before Schmid received the grandmaster title.

He has done much valuable work in England teaching the young, and was responsible for the text of a highly successful television series in 1975.
His main books are : Soviet Chess, London, 1967; Botvinnik-Bronstein Match 1951 (in co-operation with W. Winter), London, Toronto 1951; Match Petrosian-Botvinnik, London, 1963; Sousse 1967, The Chess Player, Nottingham, 1968."
From British Chess (Pergamon Press, 1983) we have this article from George Botterill :
"In the Birthday Honours list of 1979 Bob Wade was awarded the OBE for his services to chess. Few rewards can have been more thoroughly earned. For some reason, Bob has always been held in greater esteem abroad than in the country for which he has done so much. But they many players who have turned to him fro advice or who have simply enjoyed his hospitality, which is always ungrudgingly available to fellow chess players, know the measure of his dedication to the game.
Theodore Tylor vs Bob Wade at Paignton 1953. Bob held TT to a draw to secure first place
Wade was born in Dunedin, a third generation New Zealander of Scots and English ancestry. He started a a career as a civil servant in the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research. Having won the New Zealand Championship in 1944 and 1945 he was sent over to participate in the British Championship of 1946. The result was not exactly a success – a mere 3.5 points out of 11. But Bob was not to be disheartened so easily. Feeling he was capable of better things, he took leave of absence in 1947 and did the circuit, such as it then was, of chess tournament in Europe and North America.
Bob giving a simul in Leeds in the 1950s
When he returned to New Zealand he found that he had been transferred to another department in a civil service reorganisation. The new job was not so congenial. He stuck it out for 6 months – during which time he won the New Zealand Championship for a third time – and then handed in his resignation to take up the precarious life of a chess professional.
Settling in Britain he soon gained the IM title (ed : 1954). But even in those days when still a young man Wade did not concentrate exclusively on his own playing career. In 1949 he went to the FIDE congress and was one of the five people – the others were BH Wood, Ragozin, Zubarev and Rogarde – who collaborated on the writing of the official rules for the game.

He also served as a member of the commission that determined who the original holders of international titles would be. When you consider that Wade was also on the 1950 commission that decided the composition of the World Championship Interzonals, it becomes apparent that this man played a significant part in the shaping the structure of modern international chess.
Bob at a CentYMCA event with Neil Carr, Mike Wills, Aaron Rose and Jon Ady
Although rarely at the top in international tournaments, Wade was always a very dangerous player, capable on his day of beating anybody in the world. He won the British Championship twice at Chester in 1952 and at Coventry in 1970.

In recent years Wade has put his main energies into junior training and organisation and also into his work as the editor of Batsford's highly productive and extremely successful series of chess books.

It is hard to say in what department one should place Wade's greatest contributions to British Chess. Living through what is retrospect look to have been the Dark Ages of British chess – the 1950s and 1960s – he has demonstrated that even in a social and cultural environment that made playing chess economically 'impossible' profession to follow it was still possible to dedicate a life to chess, if one had the determination.

During those years he was really the only British Player who regularly active in international tournaments. Since then he has been constantly active as an author, editor and adviser, always working to transform Britain into a country more congenial to good chess.

But we suspect that he might regard this role as trainer and coach as the most important thing of all. He is, quite appropriately the British Chess Federation's Chief National Coach.
Bob doing one of the things he loved best : teaching. He was discussing a position at Havana 1965. Dr JR Capablanca, son of the former world champion, on the right, interpreted.
If one had to choose a single best game from Wade's whole tournament career, it would probably be this one.

Here is Bob's Telegraph obituary.
John Saunders interviewed Bob at his Blackheath home and wrote this extensive article for the 1999 British Chess Magazine.
His detailed results in Olympiads, from olimpbase.org, follow.
Amsterdam 1954, England board 4, 6/12 (+4−4=4);
Moscow 1956, England board 3, 6½/14 (+2−3=9);
Munich 1958, England 1st reserve, 7/14 (+5−5=4);
Leipzig 1960, England 2nd reserve, 6/11 (+4−3=4);
Varna 1962, England 2nd reserve, 6/12 (+4−4=4);
Siegen 1970, New Zealand board 2, 9/15 (+7−4=4);
Skopje 1972, England board 3, 7½/14 (+4−3=7).
Wade won several middle-strength Master events in the British Isles: Ilford 1957 and 1968, Paignton 1959, Dublin 1962, and Southend-on-Sea 1965.
Wade was generally no more than a middle-ranking player in strong international tournaments. His other highlights against high-standard international-level competition include:
tied 4–5th at Haifa/Tel Aviv 1958 on 7½/13 (winner Samuel Reshevsky);
3rd at Bognor Regis 1959 on 7/10 (winner Erno Gereben);
5th at Reykjavík 1964 on 7½/13 (winner Mikhail Tal);
tied 4–5th at Málaga 1966 on 7/11; (winners Alberic O'Kelly de Galway and Eleazar Jiménez);
6th at Briseck 1971 on 7/13 (winner Gideon Barcza);
5th at Cienfuegos 'B' 1975 on 10/17; (winners Julio Boudy and Amador Rodriguez);
tied 7–12th in the World Senior Championship, Bad Woerishofen 1992, on 7½/11 (winner Efim Geller).
Wade was the only British player to have faced Bobby Fischer in tournament play (outside of Olympiads). They met three times, with Wade drawing one game and losing the other two.
