SPRAGGETT ON CHESS
It took a while, but Angola finally arrived in Khanty Mansiysk and started to play only today! We wish them the best.

CANADIAN NEWS: message in a bottle!?
Still no pics or videos. Mark Bluvshtein’s duties and responsibilities on the team have prevented him from updating his blog since round 2. No news via the CFC website (http://www.chess.ca/) nor thru its message board.
However, Canada won narrowly today against Denmark (no small achievement)! Congrats! And the female team also won big! Double congrats!!
