If that's not Cassandra Martin, I'd love to know the name of the fitness model he posted on the previous page, for instance ...

I'm hoping to restore some more functionality to my digital life;
I'll see if I can't have the following PROPERLY rendered by nightfall today ...

Not sure what to make of this guy or the phenomenon brhind him and his channel. Seems dangerous and irresponsible, but they have disclaimers and do take some precautions. I wouldn't originally have thought there would be money or more than fringe interest by people in his content either, but each video above has more than 10 million views. Finally, I have to admit that he and his crew are pretty professional. Well researched, thoughtful, real-world experimental ...
I don't recommend what they do, but ... they do whatever it is they're doing intriguingly well ...

Dave Ramsey. How to Negotiate.
Ware/"Mirror" Ware opening with me playing as White against a higher-ranked.
I got caught by what is arguably the most common of knight forks here, but it didn't do my opponent much good overall. I need to review to learn whether that was because the opening gave me unexpectedly good alternative position, as one of my recent previous games did (the "Joan of Arc" long diagonal pawn march), or if he made a preventable mistake immediately afterwards.

The 5th Element, Milla Jovovich and Bruce Willis.
For a second I wondered if Jovovich was the same actress featured in the movie "Lola Rennt", but I think that was some other not-yet-under-the-knife German heritaged lady with marathon skills.

Alas, I failed at the goal for last night absolutely.
Won't be able to illustrate this one yet.
Mores the pity ...
Here, playing as white, a pawn and piece down a move before, a promotion that would have seen my opponent with TWO queens to my one, possibly depriving me of my 2nd bishop along the way; I earned checkmate victory despite that prospect and would have earned a similar victory even if my opponent HAD won all that I described -- my position was THAT good despite my opponents advantage in material and power:

It's easy to forget neither Franka Potenta nor Milla Jovovich are household names for today's generation, no matter how many language classes the former's film is shown in, nor how much of a boon the name of Bruce Willis gave to the latter.
Sadly, not only do I not have my full visual reproduction powers today, but KMC is acting wonky besides. Suppose I'll have to template and transpose ...
(I don't expect many will see the process or understand what I mean by that, but, such is life and that IS what is involved).

Milla Jovovich. Possibly even now she's kept her natural form, if this only partially read article was covered by me well enough and was thorough on that score to begin with ...

Compare Milla, above, especially as she appeared in 5th Element, though,
to Franka Potenta, below.

Though of course I routinely see and showcase far better, this IS actually somewhat impressive, given her frame.
Seems spirited, friendly, and determined, too.
I like her kind of person.
