Chess rap from 2010 by WIM Irina Krush!

A minuete is but a minuete by Dr. Benjamin E. Mays

A minuete is but a minuete with sixty seconds in it.
I didn't seek it
I didn't choose it.
But its up to me to use it
I suffer if I lose it
Give account if I abuse it
For a minute is but a minute
But Eternity is in it.

"Invictus" by William Ernest Heneley

Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.

"Our deepest fear by Marianne Williamson"

Our Deepest Fear

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear
is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness,
that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous,
talented and fabulous?
Actually who are we not to be?
You are a child of God.
Your playing small doesn't serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking
so that other people
won't feel insecure around you.
We are all meant to shine as children do.
We were born to make manifest
the glory of God that is within us.
It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone.
And when we let our own light shine,
we unconsciously give other people
permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear,
our presence automatically liberates others.

- Marianne Williamson

Is Chess A Crime?

http://www.upi.com/Odd_News/2010/11/18/Men-ticketed-for-playing-chess-in-park/UPI-92941290123392/
In the above article 2 men have been ticketed for playing chess in Manhattan Park in New York. The only way I see this justified is if the gentlemen were playing for money/ or using foul language. If this was not the case then I think that the cops should have left the guys alone to play their game, and instead go after real criminals.

Read the article, and comment below and let me know what you think. Thanks

a tough comeback draw in the Blackmar Diemar Gambit

Don't you quit Poem!

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest, if you must, but don't you quit.

Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don't give up though the pace seems slow--
You may succeed with another blow.

Often the goal is nearer than,
It seems to a faint and faltering man,
Often the struggler has given up,
When he might have captured the victor's cup,
And he learned too late when the night slipped down,
How close he was to the golden crown.

Success is failure turned inside out--
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far,
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit--
It's when things seem worst that you must not quit.
