THE IMPORTANCE OF THE INITIATIVE IN CHESS
2008-04-30 05:28:00 In chess, there are two basic principles that must be respected:1.Without blunders, only the attacker can win the game. A game is always won by an attack. As long as your opponent is attacking you are occupied by parrying that attack. 2.Only the player with the initiative can successfully attack! The player that does not have the initiative can often bring forth a sortie, but in order to gin up a successful attack the player must have the initiative.Couple this thinking with the fact that white has an initiative by virtue of the first move. Thus, white is favored to win. He will win if he can hold the initiative. He can lose if he loses the initiative. In many games the initiative changes hands, sometimes it changes often: perhaps because it is not respected; or because both players value it and fight for it.Statistically, White wins 54% of games decided, Black wins 46% of those games. It seems clear that White has an 8% advantage due to the first move! This is the initia...

NCC’s ICT compliance initiative
2008-04-25 08:54:00 South East Bureau Chief, Jude Ossai, writes on the efforts of the Nigeria Communications Commission (NCC) to make Nigerians compliant with Information and Communications Technology (ICT).THERE is no gainsaying the fact that enhancement of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) capacity of most Nigerians is a challenge confronting the nation’s communications sector. The reality is that many Nigerians, including the lettered ones, are still far from being computer literate. However, the Executive Vice Chairman of the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC), Chief Ernest Ndukwe, has achieved feats through his telecommunication revolution specifically between February 2000 and December 2007 when the nation’s subscriber base grew from 0.4 million to 42 million. The dominance of ICT-induced activities in the international community, which has become a global trend, will render every educated person and professional that are not ICT compliant illiterate.Ndukwe had no better f...

A ?Faith-Based? Iraq Initiative
2008-04-16 20:46:00 This story tells us?BAGHDAD ? For Um Wissam, a small office packed with food aid in Shiite-dominated Sadr City is a lifeline. With her son killed two years ago, the widow has nowhere else to turn for support."They're really great," she said. "They give us whatever they possibly can.""They" are fervent anti-American cleric Muqtada al-Sadr and his Mahdi Army.A new report from Washington-based Refugees International says that Muqtada and his Mahdi Army are the largest "unofficial" aid agency in the country. And they're not alone. In the patchwork quilt of sectarian neighborhoods that make-up Baghdad, almost all aid is delivered through political and religious groups, according to report co-author Kristele Younes.The story also tells us that the United Nations really isn?t doing much; since a massive bombing at its headquarters killed 22 people five years ago, they?ve pulled out most of their staff.Also?How about the Iraqi government?
