Wicked Volatility
I have no idea where the market will end today because the swings this entire day have been simply amazing. I can't remember a more volatile day - certainly nothing since early 2009. We started the morning with a huge swing of a couple 100 points on the Dow, and in the past hour we've seen multiple swings of such a nature. If you are a short term trader with any sort of stops out there, they are getting hit multiple times and then you are getting reversed.
We just did a 35+ point move down in the S&P 500, followed IMMEDIATELY by a 35+ move up. Whew.
Side note - the Fed is finally admitting what many of us have said - these pie in the sky idea of 3-4-5% GDP growth are nothing but fanciful tales. Considering all these budget deficit projections are based on 4% growth from here to the moon, you realize just how much more serious the situation is, and how off the CBO data is for projected deficits in the coming decade.

Best Of :: Shopping & Services
What makes a real city? For us, it's always been about the magazines. A good town can't have too many magazine racks. Our favorite local rack is found at one of our favorite local shops, MADE. The selection's not as big as the commercial bookstore departments, but don't let that fool you. The selection here makes the best bedside reading in town: Craft, Art Papers, Sculpture, Juxtapoz, Paste, Venus, Raw Vision, Ad Busters and, to be honest, our favorite: Heeb.
Intrigued? Then get yourself down to MADE for a look-see.
We tried to resist our newest obsession, vintage carnival chalkware, but we failed. It certainly didn't help that while we were out looking for end tables, we stumbled on a treasure trove of this cool stuff, which used to be handed out as prizes at carnival dime pitches in the '30s and '40s. Our shelves were already stacked with tiny chalk Pinocchios and big, scary-eyed kewpies covered in chalk's trademark hyper-colorful, randomly spray-painted way, when we tripped into Historic District Antique Mall, which has the best selection of vintage chalkware we've seen anywhere, hands down.
We spied a pair of sleepy cherub bookends; a super-rare (and really gigantic — is there such a thing as "too big" when you're talking chalkware?) Porky Pig; and not one, but three, majorettes, which were popular figurines in chalkware during the '30s. We ended up buying a chalkware lamp shaped like a fawn and a pair of really ugly schooners, simply because they were so cheap and because we'd never seen chalkware that depicted a boat before. Looking for a new obsession? You, too, can become infatuated with the joys of vintage chalk — and if you do, we recommend nursing your chalkware jones at Historic District Antique Mall.
Looking for that ultra-spicy ginger beer that they serve at your favorite indie restaurant? Come to Pop the Soda Shop. Not only do they have the elusive drink you've been searching for (as well every conceivable kind of ginger ale, ginger soda, and ginger beer out there), they have more varieties of "alternative, imported, and gourmet" sodas and non-alcoholic beverages than we ever thought possible. It's just plain fun to stroll the aisles of this specialty shop, where there's everything from cane sugar cola and exotic energy drinks to old-fashioned sarsaparilla, birch beer, and root beer. For the sugar-conscious crowd, check out the fancy bottled water, tea, and diet sodas of every flavor. Chocolate soda? Check. Moxie? Check. Purple Love Potion #69? Check. (Seriously, they really do carry an "arousing carbonated drink" with such an entertaining name.) It's hard to stump the folks at Pop the Soda Shop. But why would you want to, when discovering wacky new sodas is this fun?
Francine Sumner didn't mean to become a successful jewelry designer. She just didn't want to fork over a lot of money for that cute "mommy jewelry" she wanted, namely the hand-stamped silver discs with kid names that every mom worth her station wagon is wearing around town these days.
Sumner learned how to make her own, then started selling it at local stores like MADE art boutique and About Face.
And then she got into Twilight — Stephenie Meyer's vampire novel series for young aduts — and started making jewelry based on the characters created by Meyer, herself a local mom. The Twilight jewelry, like the books, has flown off the shelves. You can find it on her Web site or at Changing Hands bookstore. We love the "good vampire" and "bad vampire" necklaces, as well as the "Go Ask Alice" motif. And the "bite me" charms are, well, to die for.
Ten years ago, if a restaurant were to charge $5 for coffee, it would have been laughed out of business. That's why Toshi's Roast in Surprise nabbed our vote this year — because if a cuppa Joe is going to cost as much as a decent burger, than it had damn well better be imported from South America and roasted in-house using a $15,000 machine. Owners Randy Miller, a former California juvie probation officer, and his wife, Marie, were clever enough to create a niche market for themselves, offering Asian-themed blended drinks like the popular Black Dragon Mocha, plus a selection of Japanese teas. The result is an upscale and trendy coffee house that brews a solid cup of coffee, whether it's the cheapskate's Americano or a fancy latte that's actually worth the five bucks.
In our often-sheltered, middle-class world, nothing's worse than waiting in line for a cup of coffee. And though there are plenty of mainstream and mom-and-pop shops in town serving caffeinated goodness, there always seems to be a queue moving at a snail's pace. Grrr. That's until Conspire began serving coffee out of its off-the-radar house in the Evans-Churchill district. The indie biz, formerly known as C.O.L.A.B., is an artist-run store that sells all sorts of handmade fashion, visual art, and coffee with (yes!) zero to little wait. (At least, before 'Best of' hits the streets.) We're so happy every day knowing that we'll get our morning fix when we need it.

Bruins beat Avalanche 2-0 for 11th straight win
AP Monday, March 24, 2014, 12:32 am TWN
DENVER--Patrice Bergeron and Carl Soderberg each had a goal and Chad Johnson stopped 31 shots for his third career shutout as the Boston Bruins beat the Colorado Avalanche 2-0 on Friday night for their 11th win in a row.
Boston became the first team to clinch a spot in the NHL playoffs.
"We still have to play our hockey, really focusing on the little details going into the playoffs, and not getting satisfied and complacent," Boston defenseman Zdeno Chara said. "We just still have to push our team to the best, maximum results."
The winning streak is Boston's longest since it won 13 straight in the 1970-71 season. The Bruins also pushed their point total to 101, the 21st time the team has reached the 100-point threshold.
Colorado pulled goalie Semyon Varlamov for an extra attacker with five minutes remaining but couldn't avert its first shutout of the season. The Avalanche had scored at least once in 80 straight games since their previous shutout last April 6 at Phoenix.
Colorado, which handed Boston its only shutout of the season on Oct. 10, was the last NHL team to be blanked this season.
In other games, the New York Rangers beat Columbus 3-1 and moved two points ahead of the Blue Jackets in the tight Metropolitan Division and Eastern Conference playoff races.
Derick Brassard and Derek Stepan scored third-period goals and Henrik Lundqvist made 25 saves for the Rangers.
It was the first game back in Columbus for Rick Nash, who played for the Blue Jackets for nine seasons and leads the team in goals, assists and games. He was given a standing ovation during the first period, but was booed after a two-handed shove of Columbus goalie Sergei Bobrovsky.
In Chicago, Jonathan Toews' short-handed breakaway goal early in the third period broke a tie as the Blackhawks edged the Carolina Hurricanes 3-2.
Patrick Sharp scored his team-leading 30th goal and Kris Versteeg ended an eight-game drought to help the Blackhawks win without leading scorer Patrick Kane, who sustained a lower-body injury on Wednesday.
The Nashville Predators also escaped with a 6-5 win over the Calgary Flames after Shea Weber scored the go-ahead goal late in the third period. He had two goals on the night.

Franco 'Bifo' Berardi, author of Heroes
Ninety-nine years after the Soviet Revolution the stage is set for precipitation into global civil war. While the financial class exacerbates its agenda fuelling unemployment and social devastation, the dynamics that led to Nazism are deploying worldwide. Nationalists are repeating what Hitler said to the impoverished workers of Germany: rather than as defeated workers, think of yourself as white warriors so you'll win. They did not win, but they destroyed Europe. They will not win this time neither, but they are poised to destroy the world.
After two centuries of colonial violence, we are now facing the final showdown. As worker's internationalism has been destroyed by capital globalisation, a planetary bloodbath is getting almost unavoidable.
After centuries of colonial domination and violence, the dominators of the world are now facing a final showdown: the dispossessed of the world are reclaiming a moral and economic reward that the West is unwilling and unable to pay. The concrete historical debt towards those people that we have exploited cannot be paid because we are forced to pay the abstract financial debt.
The collapse of capitalism is going to be interminable and enormously destructive, as long as a conscious subjectivity does not emerge.
Christine Delphy, author of Separate and Dominate
The year now coming to an end has abounded with bad news on the political front. After a foul and very long debate on how we could 'strip' French citizens of their nationality – ultimately reaching the conclusion that this was impossible with regard to both French laws and international conventions – the government abandoned the bill. Immediately after that, a fresh bill was presented to 'reform' the labour code, largely getting rid of the majority of the guarantees enjoyed by workers. There was a mass mobilisation against this plan, lasting across the whole spring and part of summer. It opposed demonstrators in all France's towns and cities to a police which, as the prime minister Manuel Valls put it, 'had not been given any orders to show restraint'.

New Seahawks RB Marshawn Lynch wasn't exactly a fan of his new coach, Pete Carroll, back when Lynch's Cal Bears would take on Carroll's USC Trojans in the Pac-10.
"Straight up, I couldn't stand him. He was one of the only coaches you would see running up and down the field like he was playing in the game," Lynch said Wednesday, one day after he was traded to Carroll's Seahawks from the Buffalo Bills.
Lynch's teams were o-3 vs. USC in his three seasons in Berkeley.
"Running up, jumping and high-fiving with his players. They over there dogging us and you just sit there watching them have all this fun like, 'Man, what is he doing? Run me to that sideline so I can hit him one time,' " Lynch laughed.
Lynch, a 1,000-yard rusher for the Bills in 2007 and 2008 hopes to be doing more high-fiving in Seattle where the 'Hawks need some pop in their 27th-ranked rushing game. He's certainly looking forward to a fresh start after getting sidetracked by off-field issues with the Bills, particularly a misdemeanor gun charge that earned him a three-game suspension in 2009 and ultimately cost him his starting job to RB Fred Jackson.
Lynch, who has 37 carries for 164 yards in four games this season, had been vying for carries with Jackson and first-round pick C.J. Spiller.
"I feel this change is a great opportunity for me, not only in football, but in life as well," Lynch said.

Encore! Ivory Chess Treasures from the Jon Crumiller Collection revisits one of the most stunning chess collections in the United States. Focusing solely on antique ivory sets and boards, this exhibition showcased the incredible range and use of the highly sought-after and now, very controversial medium.
Used for thousands of years to create decorative and utilitarian objects, ivory's monetary value is reflected in its nickname "white gold." Skilled artisans have transformed the tusks of mammoths, elephants, and walruses (among other animals) into highly decorative and prized possessions. The material's creamy white color and hard texture lent itself well to the creation of musical instrument components, religious icons, combs, jewelry, and gaming pieces—especially chess sets and embellished boxes and boards. Artists and craftspeople created both solid, simple playing sets and elaborate and delicately carved ornamental sets from the treasured material.
This exhibition showcases ivory pieces and related objects from one of the greatest collections of chess sets in the United States. They date from the 16th through 20th centuries. By examining the over 80 chess sets, and numerous boards and tables included in Encore! Ivory Chess Treasures from the Jon Crumiller Collection, visitors to the World Chess Hall of Fame (WCHOF) were able to study the evolution of the game of chess during this time, appreciate the fantastic craftsmanship of each object, and learn about different artistic techniques from cultures around the globe. This exhibition also created a discussion about the beauty and cultural value of the antique sets as well as the importance of laws that safeguard the remaining animal populations.
In 1800, the global elephant population is estimated to have numbered 26 million. However, during the same century, demand for ivory in Europe rose dramatically. In 1890, London, England, alone imported 700 tons of ivory, derived from the tusks of approximately 14,700 elephants. Mass production of utilitarian objects from ivory further fueled the killing of elephants through the twentieth century. In the 1970s and 1980s, a conservation crisis inspired new restrictions on the ivory trade, designed to combat the rapid decline in elephant populations, which had declined to 1.3 million by 1979. In 1975, the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) banned international trade in Asian elephant ivory, and in 1989 expanded this prohibition to African elephant ivory. Over the subsequent decade, elephant populations in some areas rebounded.
Driven both by expanding demand for ivory due to increased prosperity and lax enforcement of laws regarding the sale of ivory in China, poaching of African elephants has again risen dramatically since 2005. In the United States, the terrible possibility that African elephants could become extinct in the matter of a decade, has led to tighter restrictions and new regulations banning trade in antique African elephant ivory. A 2013 Executive Order by President Barack Obama initiated these efforts. The first limitations eliminated the commercial and non-commercial import, export, transfer, and sale of objects at least 100 years old.
Over the last several months, restrictions have been loosened on the non-commercial movement of the prized medium, allowing musicians to travel with instruments containing ivory. However, New York and New Jersey laws have become more restrictive, also banning the sale or trade of mammoth and mastodon ivory. Not only have these changes affected collectors of objects, such as chess sets, but they have also significantly impacted museums and musicians. Collectors, including those of chess sets, saw their entire cache of ivory become valueless. Some professional musicians expressed concern for their livelihoods as well as about the possibility that musicians would no longer be able to use the best instruments in the United States after the commercial transfer of prized antique instruments incorporating ivory became impossible.
The debate is complex. Those who promote the ivory ban argue it is necessary to save not only thousands of African elephant lives, but also the lives of the park rangers who protect them. Only by completely closing avenues for ivory to be sold can they safeguard these animals. Others argue that the illegal ivory trade sometimes supports terrorist networks. Those who argue against the ban claim that the ivory restrictions may harm elephants by further pushing the trade underground, increasing the danger and raising the black market value of ivory. Some state that the laws are unfair to collectors of antique ivory, prevent the preservation of important art and historical artifacts, and do not do enough to stop poachers from killing elephants. The coming years will prove crucial to people on both sides of the debate, as global populations of endangered species are monitored and as collectors and museums evaluate the effects of the laws upon the preservation, exhibition, and transfer of ivory artworks and artifacts.
—Shannon Bailey, Chief Curator, and Emily Allred, Assistant Curator
From the Collector
It's a privilege to be able to exhibit these antique works of art at the World Chess Hall of Fame. The chess sets in this exhibition need little introduction because they speak for themselves: they are timeless masterpieces from centuries past, making their reappearance on the public stage for the first time in many years. It is important to note that the ivory items in this exhibition have been legally confirmed as antique, meaning over 100 years old, by CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora) and by the United States Fish & Wildlife Service, the federal agency whose mission is to preserve and protect endangered species.
An exhibition of ivory items might be considered controversial. Indeed, any modern-day reference to elephant ivory must be taken within a larger and more important context: the world's elephants are under attack, and their very survival is threatened. As the chosen stewards of our planet, it is our duty to protect these majestic, intelligent, and sophisticated creatures from the snares of increasingly brazen and violent poachers. That mandate is incontrovertible. Taking it a step further, some people feel that all ivory artifacts—whether two years old or two hundred years old—should be immediately and permanently removed from our society.
With that in mind, one might be inclined to wonder why my collection includes (and even highlights) antique ivory chess sets. The reason is simple and straightforward. Many collectors of antique items, such as museums, private collectors, and institutions of higher learning, seek to acquire the best-possible expressions of art—those rare, crowning achievements of artistic talent, skill, and craftsmanship. For chess sets and other ornamental items of prior centuries, ivory was the definitive choice of the master artisans; it was exotic, readily carved, durable, and perfectly weighted, with a glossy appearance, smooth and solid to the touch. So the acquisition of a top-tier antique chess set is, in almost all cases, the acquisition of a top-tier antique ivory chess set.
Yet today, elephants are being hunted and struck down so that their tusks can be exported and converted into mass-produced trinkets, offered for sale in tourist shops and flea markets in Asia and around the world. How to reconcile the difference between these two diametrically opposed scenarios?
An important distinction needs to be made between the present and the distant past. To state an obvious but overlooked fact—we can diligently strive to save the elephants of today and tomorrow, but we can't save the elephants of yesteryear. Another consideration, also obvious and also overlooked, although I imagine that we would all agree with it, is this: a defining characteristic of who we are, the human race, is that we take great measures to protect our cultural history, as captured by the artistic expressions of master artisans throughout the ages. The chess sets in this exhibition are part of those masterful artistic expressions, and are part of our cultural history. So while it is mandatory that we take all possible steps to preserve the world's elephant population, I would submit that it is also important to preserve our artistic heritage, even when the chosen artistic medium of the time is one that cannot be obtained, legally or morally, today. True, the first goal is more acclaimed and more urgent than the second, but there is no reason to sacrifice an essential part of our heritage, as evidenced by these works of art, due solely to the unscientific perception that such a sacrifice would somehow promote the preservation of today's elephant population. It doesn't. The two objectives are entirely separate, and both can be met simultaneously.
I hope you enjoy the exhibition. If you have any questions, whether about the chess sets or the controversial substance from which they are made, I invite you to attend and participate in an upcoming lecture on August 29, 2015, at the World Chess Hall of Fame, during which I'll discuss chess artifacts and answer your questions. Meanwhile, I think you will agree that these works of art still evoke feelings of excitement and awe, as they did in their original days of glory, one or more centuries ago.

Jonathan Crumiller
A longtime chess fan and competitor, Jon Crumiller purchased his first antique chess set online in 2002. This acquisition quickly sparked a passion, and Jon's collection of antique sets now numbers over 600. It includes sets originating from over 40 countries, dating as early as the 11th century (and gaming pieces dating to 3000 BCE), unique sets owned by 18th- and 19th-century royalty, and made from materials such as jade, silver and gold, bone, wood, and precious stones among others. The scope of his collecting has also grown to include chessboards, timers, and chess miscellanea, mainly from the 19th and 20th centuries. Now recognized as one of the greatest chess set collections in the world, the artifacts he has gathered serve as a visual history of the diverse ways that cultures across time and around the world have interpreted the game of kings. A portion of the Crumiller collection was first shown in the World Chess Hall of Fame's 2013 exhibition Prized and Played, which included notable ornamental and playing sets.
Not only interested in acquiring artifacts but also learning about their origins and histories, Jon conducts research on the evolution of chess set styles, usage, and manufacturing. He shares this information with the global community of collectors, including his fellow enthusiasts in Chess Collectors International. Through his website www.chessantique.com, Jon provides curious chess devotees from around the world with beautiful photos of his stunning collection as well as some of the fruits of his meticulous research.
Jon's tournament experience stretches back to the Bobby Fischer-boom years in the early 1970s, and includes a Delaware State Championship title and numerous other victories. Along the way, he has earned the United States Chess Federation National Master title in both over-the-board and correspondence chess. Still active via online chess, Jon credits much of his middle-age chess improvement to the outstanding teaching skills of his chess teacher and friend, U.S. Chess Hall of Fame inductee Grandmaster (GM) Lev Alburt. Jon relishes the occasional opportunity to play with, and against, some of the top players in the world. He teamed up with World Chess Hall of Fame inductee and former World Chess Champion Garry Kasparov in London for a charity game versus Team GM Nigel Short, and managed to eke out a draw against World Chess Champion Magnus Carlsen in a simultaneous exhibition. A one-on-one game versus former World Chess Champion Vladimir Kramnik did not finish with such a successful result! Ever the competitor, Jon remarks that one of his favorite ways to end a game is by winning.
Jon and his wife Jenny live in Princeton, New Jersey, and have three children and two grandchildren. Jon is Co-founder and Chief Operating Officer of Princeton Consultants Inc., a mid-size consulting firm that specializes in business optimization and operational efficiency. Jenny is an elected official on Princeton Council, the governing body of Princeton, New Jersey.
Works Featured in the Exhibition
Pieces based upon famous works of classical sculpture communicate the taste and education of the patron who purchased this chess set. The Apollo Belvedere appears as the king, while Venus de Medici represents the queen. As the bishop, the messenger of the gods, Hermes, rests his attribute, a caduceus, or winged staff with two snakes wrapped around it, on his shoulder. Each of the eight pawns is a different putto in action: one holding a goose by its neck, another bearing an archer's bow, and yet another carrying a bundle of grain.
This late 18th-century set represents two regional German armies. Although the polychrome has mostly worn away with time, evidence of their previous coloring remains in and around the deeper indentations in the pieces. The rooks feature elephants carrying towers, possibly referring to chess' historical roots in India. There, elephants represented the rook in early predecessors of the game. One has a lookout, watching for attacks from the other army.
Animated expressions as well as finely textured garments elevate this delightful German set. Each of the pieces bears attributes of their position: the king and queen hold scepters, symbols of their power, while the page clutches a scroll, and the knight rides on the back of a dramatically rearing horse. The pawns hold spears, swords, and staffs.
Made in Geislingen, Germany, this ivory chess set depicts three quarter bust-length views of a royal court with nonfigurative pawns. Each sits atop a petaled base with decorative cross hatching on a tall, slender column. Due to stylistic similarities with those created in Dieppe, France, sets of this type were once believed to have been created there.
The carver of this masterful German set paid great attention to detail in the costumes of the members of the court. Each includes carefully sculpted details like jewelry, elaborate headpieces, and delicate lace. The infantrymen wear ivory representations of metal morion helmets, which were generally used during the 16th and 17th centuries.
Often, craftsmen would save their skill and expertise for decorative chess sets. However, this German ivory set was designed for travel rather than display, yet the artisan depicted an unusual level of detail in the faces and clothing of the bishop, queen, and king. The rook is represented as a tower with an open space where the watchmen would keep post. The "bishop" appears here as a page, sometimes a court messenger, a reference to the piece's German name, läufer, or runner.
The double-headed knights in this set are characteristic of a regional style of chess set that flourished in lands ruled by the Habsburg Empire, as well as Germany, in the 19th-century. The double-headed knight was so closely associated with chess sets from this region that the Hanover Turner's Guild, an association of artisans in the city of Hanover, Germany, illustrated it on their seal.
Unlike other sets of this type, this Selenus style set includes representational sculptures of a royal court. Selenus chess sets are characterized by their tall, elegant, and slender forms and tiered decoration. They are named for their resemblance to a set in an illustration by Jacob van de Hayden in Das Schach oder Konig-Spiel, a well-known book about chess written in 1616 by Gustavus Selenus.
Originally polychromed, traces of the set's original coloring are evident in the hints of pink, blue and green along the indentations of the chessmen. Differing costume colors and pedestal colors marked the opposing armies of this chess set.
Exquisitely and finely carved tiered decoration characterizes this magnificent set. It is made in the style of Michael Edel, a designer and creator of chess sets who lived in Munich, Germany, in the 19th century. The rooks, which resemble the bell towers of churches, are characteristic of his work. Sets like these were turned and carved in multiple parts, then assembled by a craftsman. The box for this set contains not only a chessboard, but also, when opened, a backgammon board. Chess and backgammon have a long association, as recognizable forms of each game emerged from neighboring civilizations—chess from India and backgammon from Persia—around the 6th century.
Blending distinctive attributes of French and German styles of chess sets, this set contains both figural and non-figural representations of a royal court. An artisan in Alsace, a region with both French and German heritage, created the set. The king and queen have tiered and petaled layers of ornamentation, which are characteristic of Selenus style sets, while the double-headed knights are included in some German sets. However, the gruesome fools, which take the place of the bishops, are commonly featured in sets created in Dieppe, France.
Chess sets created by the master carvers of Dieppe, France, were sought-after souvenirs among British tourists who visited the coastal town. This set features the theme of European military forces attacking those of Africa, a popular subject among the tourists and artists in Dieppe. This set substitutes grimacing fous, or fools, for the bishops. Though the production of ivory souvenirs in Dieppe decreased after the French Revolution, it was revived after Napoleon bought ivory products there.
The master carvers of Dieppe, France, imported ivory from Africa in order to create sets like these. Unusual for this style of set, this one features pieces stained with a blue pigment. The hobby horse knights are characteristic of late 18th-century Dieppe sets, and even appear in a similar set that was owned by Thomas Jefferson.
This French Figural Régence Set blends attributes of the Régence style of set, a popular type of playing set in 18th century France, with figural representation. The Régence style was named after the Café de la Régence in Paris, where many skilled players and intellectuals congregated. The white queen and king wear fashionable garments associated with wealthy individuals of the 15th and 16th centuries.
John Company
Russian, Muslim, and Italian
Though simple in form, with kings and queens resembling spools, this set glows due to its brilliant colors. It is decorated with gilding in quatrefoil patterns on the stems and tops of the bases, as well as chevron patterns around the bottoms. Islamic art often incorporates geometric patterning like this in the place of figural representation.
Somber kings and queens wear patterned turbans topped by crowns, sometimes an attribute of Islamic leaders in Italian art. Their serious faces are balanced by that of the knight, a horse with an expression of surprise. Italy's position on the Mediterranean Sea led it to have contact with the Islamic world through both trade and war.
As chess reached new cultures in Asia, Europe, and Africa after its creation in India, its rules evolved, as did the forms and figures associated with each of the pieces. Artists and artisans from various cultures created their own distinctive styles of chess sets, and even within single countries, diverse styles often proliferated. During the mid-19th century, the rise of organized competitive chess and chess clubs highlighted a need for more standardized sets.
The ancient conflicts between the Greek and Achaemenid (First Persian) empires form the theme for this militaristic set. Each culture is brought to life through rooks that resemble their famous architecture—for the Persian side, this includes lamassu, or winged bulls with the faces of men, that adorned monuments in cities like Babylon and Persepolis. Additionally, each has pieces that speak to the cultures of each empire, including philosophers as bishops for the Greek side and musicians on each side with native instruments. The set appears on a simple and classic 21st-century board.
Indian Figural
The polychromed, or multi-colored jewel toned, surfaces of this set are largely intact and original to the pieces. The curvature of the figures indicates that they are from smaller, curved pieces of tusk, making it a less expensive set than some of the larger and more delicately carved Indian sets on view in this exhibition.
Carved in a naive but charming style, this set features snarling lions as bishops. Once thought to have been made in the Central Provinces of India, the set is now believed to have been produced in Vizagapatam, a district in the Madras Presidency of British India. Stylistic features, including the large-headed lions as bishops, support this attribution.
Named for Rajasthan, a state in Northwest India, this style of set has been created in India for centuries. Images of this type of set appear in Thomas Hyde's 1694 publication De Ludis Orientalibus, or The Book of Oriental Games. Here, the two armies are depicted in red and green. Leaders in canopies atop elephants command the armies, which count individualized pawns carrying swords, spears, and musical instruments among their numbers.
Enthroned kings, seated below decorative parasols, are the highlights of this heavily ornamented set. This set has features characteristic of 20th-century Indian sets, including the angular carving style and the pawns, which depict warriors riding on horseback. The bishops, knights, rooks, and pawns bear soaring banners, which along with the rolling landscapes below them, lend a sense of dynamic action to this set.
This set is distinguished by its unusual rooks, which feature tented arches topped by onion shaped domes, reminiscent of architectural styles in the country in which it was made. Here, an army is led by a king with a military advisor bearing a scimitar, or curved sword, at his side. The set is shown with an ivory and sandalwood board. Its board features engraved ivory decoration filled with lac. Artisans in Vizagapatam used this technique to create objects like sewing boxes, tea caddies, document boxes, and game sets for export to Great Britain.
Indian Non-Figural
Whimsical architectural and botanical forms inspired the creators of this elaborate ornamental chess set. Once believed to have been created in Kashmir, the northwestern region of South Asia, research by expert Michael Mark has shown that the area did not have major ivory markets during the period when pieces like this were produced. Sets in this style were made almost exclusively for export to Great Britain.
The skirted decoration on this red and white ornamental set is a simplified version of the more elaborate carving on the Kashmiri sets also on display in this case.
In this set, tall pawns are topped by buds soon to burst into bloom, while flames curl above the king and queen. It was created in Vizagapatam, a district in the Madras Presidency of British India, which was well-known for ivory decorative arts. The Union Jack flags atop the rooks are common features of chess sets made for trade.
Like the other Kashmiri set on display in this case, this set blends abstract and representational elements. On the back rank, the king and queen are embellished architectural forms, while the pawns are full-length figural representations of soldiers bearing weapons.
British and Indian stylistic influences are mixed in this set, which has tiered leafy decorations on its bases and finials resembling those of European-style chess pieces. The towers on the rooks, as well as the shapes of the bishops, display the taste of the British consumers of the sets, while the beautiful pierced and botanical decorations reflect the artistic traditions of India. Though impractical for use as a regular playing set, this gorgeous object communicated the taste and wealth of its owner.
This Samuel Pepys set is named not for its maker, but for a famous man once believed, but now disproven, to have been given a set of this type by King James II of England. Made in India, it features a hybrid of British and Indian stylistic influences. The towers on the rooks, as well as the shapes of the bishops, communicate the taste of the British consumers of the sets, while the carved decorations reflect the artistic traditions of India. The tall, slender forms of the sets made them impractical for playing, as they could be easily knocked over during a game. The set is paired with a Sadeli Indian board. Sadeli is a type of micro mosaic with repeating geometric patterns. Examples of Sadeli work date back to the 16th century.
Created in Vizagapatam, an ivory carving center and hub for trade from India to Great Britain, this board displays elaborate floral motifs. It is shown with a set that similarly takes inspiration from nature, with petaled tiers of ornamentation and naturalistic prancing horses as knights. The set also incorporates political references—the queen is topped by the "Prince of Wales's feathers," ostrich feathers that when grouped, serve as a symbol of the British monarchy.
Though made during the second half of the 19th century, this set includes knights created in a much earlier style. The horses, with their arched necks and downcast faces, resemble those found in Indian sets produced for the British export market during the late 18th century. The other parts of the set are in a style commonly produced during the mid-to-latter 19th century. This set is paired with an elaborately carved board, featuring beasts and human figures amongst a foliate background.
After British tourism expanded in India, artists there began to produce miniatures that appealed to this new market of consumers. The table has intricate filigree decoration surrounding its border, with small panels depicting Hindu religious figures. The tiny set that accompanies the table is based upon simple British playing sets, though its small size lends it additional delicacy.
English Calvert
Unlike the other sets in this case, this set contains figural representations of a royal court. The queen wears a long robe with an empire waist and long elbow-length gloves. The rook is represented by an elephant with a tower topped by battlements. In the crenellations, or gaps, tiny cannons are positioned for defense.
Created by London chess set maker, William Lund, this set is made in the style of another manufacturer, John Calvert. Lund's shop was located across the street from Calvert's workshop, which had large storefront windows for the display of his products. Viewing Calvert's sets on a daily basis may have influenced the production of this set that borrows from Calvert's style.
The stamp of John Calvert, one of the top producers of chess sets during the late 18th and early 19th centuries, appears on the tops of the rooks in this set. It is made in a popular 18th-century style called the "Washington set," and serves as visual evidence of the evolution of Calvert's designs. Though he did not originate this style of set, he created a unique style of knight to accompany it. He would later go on to create a more distinctive style of set that would influence those produced by many of his London contemporaries.
Though this style of set was later imitated by other chess set manufacturers, including Lund and Merrifield, John Calvert originated it. The heavy rooks and lively knights, represented by horses with bulging eyes, are typical of his sets. The Jaques company, one of the most famous manufacturers of playing sets, would later include a representation of this style in its pattern book.
John Calvert was a member of the Master of Worshipful Company of Turners, a trade guild set up during the medieval era to protect the interest of artist members who were skilled at turning and shaping wooden objects on a lathe. After his 1822 death, his wife Dorothy Calvert then took over and kept his company running. She then sold the stock in 1835 and later died in 1840.
The white rooks in this elegant playing set bear the stamp of the Calvert workshop, which was established in 1791. The simple playing set is displayed with an elaborately embellished penwork board. Penwork was a fashionable form of decoration in Great Britain during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Created by drawing images over a layer of lacquer or paint then applying a layer of shellac, penwork decoration imitated the effect of more expensive decorative arts. Artisans sometimes incorporated original designs, but other times included images from popular culture. Here the squares of the chessboard alternate between figural representations and those of picturesque landscapes.
English Lund
This set, as well as the English ornamental playing set also on view in this case, represent decorative variations of the Staunton style chess set. Named for Howard Staunton, the sets became the standard for tournament play during the mid-19th century and are still used today. Though adorned with decorative surface textures, these sets maintain the essential qualities of the Staunton set's forms.
William Lund, a London manufacturer of ivory chess sets as well as small decorative and utilitarian objects, likely created this chess set, which features his distinctive style of knights and pedestaled rooks. Though he later sold chess sets through his own business, William Lund also created sets for another London manufacturer, Samuel Fisher.
Like the Jaques and Calvert companies, Thomas Lund, and later his son William, manufactured beautiful playing sets during the 19th century. Thomas Lund first appears in city directories in 1804 working as a cutler, or maker of knives and other instruments. He also made chess sets. After his 1845 death, his son William took over management of the family's second shop, which Thomas had formerly run.
A simple box with knight-shaped latches accompanies this Lund playing set. On the interior of the box's lid is a list of the relative values of the chess pieces.
English Miscellaneous
Northern Upright is a regional style of set that was popular in Great Britain during the 19th century. It is a predecessor to the Staunton set, the most famous style of playing set. Artisans often used cochineal dye, which was derived from an insect of the same name, to produce the brilliant red color in playing sets like this one.
By the mid-1800s, as chess was becoming more organized and competitive, there was a call for pieces to become distinct and uniform. The Northern Upright style is considered a predecessor to the Staunton set, which eventually became the standard for all official chess competitions worldwide. The forms of the pieces sit atop slender columns, but the set's clean lines and simple style bear a strong resemblance to the now-famous Staunton design. The set is paired with a colorful 19th-century hand-painted chessboard.
This trophy or gift set is named for the man who presented it, a member of the British Parliament named Lord Vernon. An inscription on the base of the box that accompanied this set indicated that he presented at his residence, Sudbury Hall, in October 1857. John Jaques and Son, Ltd., of London, a leading manufacturer of chess equipment during the 19th century, created the set.
Though this was a popular type of set in England, it has become known as a "Washington set" because American President George Washington owned one of this style. These sets were also well-liked by the British aristocracy because they featured red and white pieces, colors associated with St. George, the patron saint of England.
Though artists often used ivory to create elaborate ornamental chess sets, as in this example, they also used it to produce upscale versions of playing sets that were commonly made from wood. A.B. Barrett & Sons, a London-based manufacturer, created this set in the Northern Upright pattern.
The leafy decorations around the barrels on the centers of the kings and queens in this style of set lend it the name of barleycorn. Though this type of chess set originated in England, it soon spread to the United States and Germany. This is the only set directly attributable to Charles Hastilow, a masterful carver of ivory. One of his sets was included in the 1862 International Exhibition, a world's fair held in London, England, which highlighted examples of arts, technology, and industry from around the globe.
The casket, or box, for this chess set bears gorgeous inlaid floral decoration, showing the attention to detail paid to every aspect of this luxurious playing set. Unlike many of George Merrifield's chess sets, the box had not been stamped with his mark. Merrifield worked as an ivory turner in London from 1818 to 1852. In 1807, he apprenticed under John Calvert, another renowned ivory turner and chess set craftsman.
North America
Creatures of the arctic, including bears, whales, eagles, seals, and walrus take center stage in this charming mid-20th-century chess set. As in Kholmogory, Russia, there were long traditions of bone and ivory carving in Alaska that artists adapted to creating trade items after contact with outside cultures. These included scrimshaw and small decorative items, and by the late 19th and early 20th centuries incorporated chess sets. This set embraces the unique qualities of walrus ivory, which often gains a yellow and white marbled quality with age, to depict the two opposing sides. This set is paired with an Inuit chessboard made of strips of woven fur.
Central Displays
Many of the pieces in this polychromed chess set are based upon historical figures from the French Emperor Napoleon's final conflict, the Battle of Waterloo. On the French side, Napoleon is king and the Empress Marie Louise is queen, the bishops are Marshals Michel Ney and Jean-de-Dieu Soult, and the rooks are columns topped with the French Imperial Eagle, the standard carried by Napoleon's forces into battle. On the British side, King George III and Queen Charlotte lead a force that includes Major-General Lord Edward Somerset (with one arm) and Colonel John Cameron as bishops. The set is paired with a gilded French gaming table.
Established in 1890, the British Chess Company only operated for about fifteen years, but in that time had a lasting impact. In addition to being a leading producer of chess equipment, it also collaborated with players to compile a regulated set of rules known initially as the British Chess Code and later, across the Atlantic, as the American Chess Code. The company's efforts represented the first major attempt to standardize the rules of chess for a broad audience. The set is paired with a gaming table sold by Olivella Hermanos y Cuspinera of Barcelona, a store known for distributing Chinese and Japanese export art during the late 19th century.
Gilded floral decoration adorns the simple abstract forms of this Indian Islamic Ivory chess set. It complements the scrolling vine and stylized floral patterns on the surface of the Indian brass inlaid hardwood chess table.
The theme of this set is the meeting of the English King Henry VIII and the French King Francis I at the Field of the Cloth of Gold. The two kings, along with their retinues, met near Calais, France, in 1520 for a gathering intended to increase the bonds of friendship between the two nations. The French and the English tried to outdo each other with extravagant shows of wealth. Many of the tents and much of the clothing worn by the guests was made of cloth of gold, an expensive fabric composed of gold and silk, which lent its name to the diplomatic meeting. The two queens, Catherine of Aragon and Claude of France, bear resemblance to the historical figures upon whom they are based.
The unique form of this lecture podium and chess board may indicate that it was a special commission by a patron.
James Leuchars, a London manufacturer of chess equipment sold this ornamented playing set. After his death, his widow, Lucy, took over the business. Eventually, her son William would run the firm, which would become the first retailer of Staunton pattern sets in December 1849. The board with which it is paired was made by George Bullock, a well-known furniture maker from the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
This beautiful lacquered cabinet was produced for the Chinese export trade. Created primarily as an object for display, the set features a white king and queen modeled upon the British monarch George III and his wife, Queen Charlotte. The green side represents Chinese leaders. The set is accompanied by a folding game board.
Though this is a playing set, it features beaded decoration. The rooks are towers topped by waving flags and the kings have crowns topped by Maltese crosses. The multicolored examples of marble specimens lend a special beauty to the surface of this chess table.

OK, so I just turned 70
and I'm looking at a Z4. Am I being stupid (have more money than brains):D
Actually, I would really like you folk's opinions on ride, comfort and accessibility. My wife and I are both healthy and active.
BTW, closest dealer is 180 miles, not to particularly convenient for test driving.
Go for it. I'm 60 and have had my 2011 3.5 Z for a year now. It is my daily car and every day I enjoy it more and more. It is not a quiet, soft riding 5er, it is a sports car to the core. It rides very firm and stiff. In my opinion it is a great car and fun to drive.
I wouldn't be worried about how far away it is to the dealer, I have had no problems at all, just routine service at one year.
The ride and comfort are pretty good in my opinion, the access is a little tougher but I'm 6'4".
Stay away from the 19" wheels to ensure a smoother ride.
It is a very comfortable car, even after an all day drive. The biggest deterrent to ride comfort are the road flat tires. Many people, myself included, swapped these for regular tires and comfort improves immensely. With the hard top, road noise is virtually like a non-convertible car. All in all, it's an awesome car to drive, but I would definitely get a test drive because you're asking a very biased crowd in this forum!
My 72 year old father just bought a 2012 Mustang GT Convertible. He drives it like it's a Buick LaCrosse, as I have yet to see him get the tachometer over 2000 RPMs....but that's not the point.
Get the car you want. Why should age stop you.
Thanks folks
Thanks guys, Based upon your comments I'll probably make the trip to Albuquerque to drive one.
Thanks again.
I guess one negative thing is your distance from the dealership. 4 years of free maintenance and possibly other, unplanned need for service can be a pain in the butt if you have to drive 3 hours. but then again, you'd have a really fast car. I bet you can make it in 1 hour!
180 miles would bother me......nothing is bulletproof and flatbed charges for 180 miles are not cheap......
I am 6'3" and wish the legroom was about 2" more. Guess I have long legs. But the ride in comfort mode is great. Very smooth. When I switch to sport or sport+ it becomes much stiffer, which of course, you would expect.
One funny thing that I noticed, and I don't know if anyone else has, is that the passenger seat
feels more comfortable than the drivers seat. I have done everything I can to the power drivers seat but can't make it feel the same as the passenger seat.:dunno:
I think you will enjoy the car. I sure do.:thumbup:
I just picked up my Z4 from Atlanta and drove it to NH. Amazing car....
Treat yourself and go for it. Heck - go and lease it and worse case scenario, you are out of it in 3 years.
Go for it! You can even take it skiing! :thumbup:
If you want it, buy it. I know of a man who bought his first Lamborghini at 70, he is now 74 and owns his second Lamborghini. I understand the distance to the dealer is some concern but chances are you will only be driving to the dealer for your yearly service;).
Do it!! We just bought an E93 for a fun car (with a little more luggage space). This is our first convertible, but I'm sure it won't be our last. The car is so quiet with the top up and just a blast to drive with the top down. The only reason we went with the 3 is so we can easily take it on a road trip and have some room for luggage.
All right for you !!!!! I just turned 60 in April and was fortunate to be able to retire at 58. I bought a new 2006 Z4 3.0si at the age of 55 and loved it. I just leased a new 2012 Z4 S28i in April as a "fun" car for me and my wife to enjoy.
PS: My daily driver is a 2011 X3 35i in which I have racked up over 15000 trouble free miles as well in 9 months.
57 and LUVin IT!!!
Ride is very smooth on standard suspension and 18" wheels. In my opinion the car is slightly under damped on the standard suspension. However we decided to not to get the sport suspension since we aren't going to autocross ours.
Get the sport seats!!!! They are more comfortable than the standard seats and more adjustable.
Our e89 is one of the most comfortable cars we've ever owned. That is saying a lot as it is our sixth BMW. Passenger side has more room than the driver's side. (At least on our RHD car) The interior is not symmetrical. One of those things you might not notice on a test drive.
With the roof up, it is a bit tight to get in. For me the easiest way to get in the car is to go in head first, lean across to the passenger side, and then pull my feet in. I learned this trick driving a Caterham 7.
Trunk space is limited if you want to put the top down.
I will say this again, I am surprised most of you are advising to just "go get it" when the nearest diagnostic computer/parts/tech skill is 180 miles away......My '12 Z4 the second day had the HVAC system go dead. A simple hookup to the dealer diagnostic found a minor software fualt and was corrected. I 'd hate to drive 180 miles sweating, to fix something in 5 min...these cars are not bulletproof no matter how much "good times" you want the guy to have...NO CAR IS......
PS - I am 62....
Sincerley, Good luck then....not sure what "first dance" has to do with it......driving long Dist for service is not my cup of tea, that's all....

The sDrive20i isn't sold in the US. It is the same N20 engine as the sDrive28i de-tuned in software to 184HP. The cars are nearly identical. The main differences are about 50hp and about £4,000.
184HP is more than enough power here. Nearly every other car on the road is slower and speed limits are heavily enforced.
Good power delivery with full torque available over a wide power range. You wouldn't know it was turbo charged. The engine is flat-rated. It hits full power at fairly low RPM and the engine software keeps it there until the red line. That make the car very easy to drive. Very smooth with less vibration than most 4-cylinder engines. BMW must have worked their engineers hard to get it so smooth. It is on the loud side but that is on purpose. The motor has a nice growl to it that is unlike other BMWs we've owned.
Minor annoyance:
There is an electronic sound generator that plays engine 'sound enhancement' through the speakers. The sound generator isn't that loud but I wish I could turn it off.
For some unknown reason BMW choose to remove hill start assist from both N20 powered Z4s. Not an issue if you are buying an Automatic. If you are looking at the 6-speed I'll point you at links to my posts in another forum.
Fuel Economy isn't close to what BMW promised. I realize that "YMMV" and the UK fuel economy numbers are always optimistic. Still, I had hoped for better than 24mpg-US

text: Hey Guys, So I'm running Windows 7 Business (real version not hacked not RC) and Windows Media Player 12 is really sucking. I absolutely love music and coincidentally have well over 20,000 songs and WMP is shitting the bed when trying to say shuffle through all of them. This was never a problem in WMP 11 on Vista but now with the upgrade to 7 and WMP 12 its horrible. It can take anywhere from 5-10 minutes for WMP to even load and about 1-2 minutes to load a song. Its not the sound effects as I have already shut that off. If I however load a file of music say 20 songs WMP behaves exactly like it should, quick and simple, no freezes nothing. Just a final not my computer hardware can more than handle WMP as I'm running quad core 2.6 and 8 gigs ram, etc......Should be fine.....but its not. Please help me! PS I stream my music from my server over a gigabit LAN.

Right from getting a quote from Matt he was the only choice. The detail he gave when pricing up the job was first rate. He answered all questions I had and offered great advice throughout the quote and the job itself. Weather hampered the job but he still turned up and patiently waited in the van until the rain cleared. Great communication when he was unable to turn up due to persistant rain and gales blowing. I advise all users to use Matt. The cheapest quote and excellent workmanship. Thanks Matt .
Very impressed with work - finally I got someone who was able to diagnose & fix long-standing problem with overflow. Would definitely recommend!!

Prejudice Limits Potential (14 of 26) by Zach Terry
This content is part of a series.Prejudice Limits Potential (14 of 26)
Series: Romans
Zach Terry
Romans 10:11-21
INTRODUCTION: To help us set the stage for today's text - Let's do a quick survey of who we have represented among us. For those of you that are even slightly into ancestry, or the origin of your surname - this will be easy.
• German
• Scandinavian
• irish (Hello cuz)
• african
• hispanics
• asians
• russian
• Texans?
{ROMANS 9, 10 and 11 is Paul's Explanation
of why not many Jews are among us. }
As a matter of fact I am told that in Jerusalem the birth place of Christianity there is one Evangelical church that runs about 300.
• In Romans 9 - Paul explains their rejection in terms of God's Sovereign Plan and mercy toward the Gentiles
• In Romans 10:1-10 Paul explains their rejection in terms of Israel's free will rejection of Jesus.
• They had zeal without knowledge.
• They had law without Christ.
• They had works without faith. THEY PREFERRED AN EARNED GOSPEL
• BTW, to this day they are zealous for the law. ILL: On the sabbath they had an elevator that stopped on every floor, because to push a button was to break the sabbath. They also had a gentile elevator that worked like normal. They would let us push the button for them, but they wouldn't push it. It's like - well you guys are going to hell anyway so go ahead and push the button.
• Now in Romans 10:11-21 Paul explains a major reason they Jews reject the Gospel is frankly because they don't like the fact that it is being accepted by all of you Gentiles.
They preferred religion to be a sort of secret society.
ILLUSTRATION: It's like some of our men who have jobs in the defense industry. I'm absolutely fascinated by what they do, but I have learned not to ask too many questions. They have a pat answer for me, "I could tell you but I'd have to kill you". Their info. is on a "need to know" basis and apparently I don't need to know.
Well that's how the Jews saw rel ...

While it's not hard to buy replacement parts for Chrysler vehicles, these days only the highest quality are required to repair your car or truck.
