I don't think I'm going to be around much for today's thread. Our daughter is getting married in our backyard TODAY, so, as you can probably imagine, things are a little crazy around Casa de Muse right now.
As always, the chess/dress pr0n thread is an open thread, so there is no such thing as an off-topic comment. TheJamesMadison's movie thread will be up later.

Goal: Black can force mate in 4

More Challenging Problem - White To Play (1006)
Goal: Queen one of the pawns
Hint: The king is a strong piece. Use it.
1b6/6kp/8/P3P3/K7/8/8/7B w - - 0 1

Note: that cryptic line of letters and numbers you see underneath each board diagram is a representation of the position in what is known as "Forsyth-Edwards Notation", or F.E.N. It's actually readable by humans. Most computer applications nowadays can read FEN, so those of you who may want to study the position, you can copy the line of FEN and paste into your chess app and it should automatically recreate the position on its display board. Or, Windows users can just "triple click" on it and the entire line will be highlighted so you can copy and paste it into your chess app.

So that about wraps it up for this week. Chess thread tips, suggestions, bribes, rumors, threats, and insults may be sent to my yahoo address: OregonMuse little-a-in-a-circle yahoo dott com.
