Felipe's remarks came three days after separatist parties, led by ousted president Carles Puigdemont, won an absolute majority of seats in a parliamentary vote.

It does its best business after all the other bars in town close, and restless locals find their way to its door. It’s the all-night burger joint and it’s just around the corner in every town in Estonia. At Christmas time, it is done up festively. There are elves displayed in the front windows casting pointy shadows on the snowy sidewalks. In the glass by the grill, a Nativity Scene. Читать дальше...

The new chess publisher Elk and Ruby, which put out the books on David Bronstein and Mikhail Tal that I recently reviewed (here and here), has also released a couple of small but fun books written - or maybe more accurately, compiled - by Sergei Tkachenko. Tkachenko is a Ukranian composer of endgame studies, and in these volumes he has collected 100 of his favorites in which White winds up with either nothing but a knight after his final move (in the one volume) or nothing but a pawn (in the other) - excluding the king, of course.
