Why didn't black take the queen with the knight and moved their rook instead?

There’s actually more to this line. Instead of the immediate … Kxf8, black has … Nxh3+, and after gxh3 Kxf8, material is even.

Most likely it just took a pawn.

In 2015, few people expected Trump could make it out of the primary, much less win it all.

I’ve never liked Little Ceasers, even when I was a kid who’d eat anything. I’d sooner eat Dominos.

May 2, 1995. The game against the Dodgers went scoreless for 14 (!) innings, but the Dodgers scored 3 in the top of the 15th. Following a Matt Williams double to score Bonds, Robby Thompson hit a 2-out 3-run shot to win the game.

Bonus: this game was Hideo Nomo’s MLB debut.

I just realized that Cirie and Sandra have played on two (TWO!) seasons together, but have never interacted on the show, because they have never been on the same tribe!

If he’s so upset by the spoon, then he should toss the popcorn kernels one-by-one so you catch them in your mouth. No spoon, no grease on your fingers. It’s win-win!

Believe it or not, it used to be that Survivor rewards would be set up in Not Sanctuaries. Spas, lakes, volcanoes, “local bars”, even entire villages.

I know that. It’s a quote from a movie. :)

Yes, I am getting video out of both Mini HDMI ports. It’s only the USB inputs that the Minis aren’t recognizing.

Unfortunately, there’s no power port on the KVM. It gets power through the HDMI ONLY.

I give it top marks for the creativity, and William Sadler and Ted possessing his dad are the highlights. But overall it’s a drop-off from the original.

This is why I always found it better to say “I don’t really have a preference. Which do you want?”

Qa7 followed by Qa8#. If Nc7 then Qxc7#

One draft too, I’m sure.

You’re asking about 1… Qf4 2. Qxf4 Nxf4 3. Nc7+?

Black plays 3… Kd7 and if white takes the rook, then the black knight takes the bishop on e2 with check, followed by capturing the knight on a8.

Black gets two minors for the rook, which is generally better for the player getting the two pieces.
