I noted it in gmjoey's site.
BTW, sa chess calendar, pls re-check the World Jrs, Ive been reading in Wes' site and blogs that it starts on Oct21.
my college batchmate made a short video about chess titled grandmaster. it is her entry in a video contest.
it's about a luneta chess hustler and hs students betting near rizal monument.
log on to www.180cinema.net and vote for it as it is one way of us promoting chess.
