I’d like to acknowledge the e-mails I received urging me to write more on Internet privacy. Among them was a letter by Robert Ellis Smith, publisher of the Privacy Journal, and author of the book Ben Franklin’s Web Site, who informed me that the issue of privacy dates back to colonial times. For those readers who want more on Internet privacy, I shall be writing another column very soon on more troublesome issues.

[Title] => Mariano becomes RP’s 5th GM
[Summary] => Ten years after he ruled the Asian Juniors in Malaysia and nine after he obtained his first GM norm in Singapore, Nelson Mariano II became the fifth Filipino grandmaster when he clinched the third and last part of the elusive GM title yesterday in the first ASEAN Chess Confederation GM Circuit in Bangkok.
Needing two points in the last two rounds to complete the required number of points for a GM norm, Mariano did just that, halving the point with eventual winner GM Nguyen Anh Dung of Vietnam in the morning match and then drawing with Myanmar GM Zaw Win Lay in the afternoon.

[Title] => Draws slow down Mariano’s GM bid
[Summary] => Draws stalled Nelson Mariano II’s bid to obtain his third and final GM norm outright as the Filipino chesser failed to eke out a victory over IM Aung Aung of Myanmar and found compatriot GM Bong Villamayor too tough to handle Wednesday after eight rounds of play in the first ASEAN Chess Confederation GM Circuit in Bangkok.

[Title] => Mariano moves 2 points closer to GM title
[Summary] => Former Asian Junior champion Nelson Mariano II inched closer to a dream grandmaster title by beating GM Zaw Win Lay of Myanmar in the morning match Tuesday then trounced IM Aung Thant Zin later in the First ASEAN GM chess tournament in Bangkok, Thailand.
Those victories hiked Mariano’s output to 4.5 points, half-a-point behind Vietnam GM Nguyen Anh Dung in the tough double-round robin event featuring six players. But more importantly, it moved the 29-year-old Mariano to within two points of obtaining the third and final GM norm with four rounds to go.

[Title] => Rival groups to send own Olympiad chess teams?
[Summary] => With the last attempt to unify the feuding Philippine Chess Federation and the National Chess Federation of the Philippines bogging down, the two groups have vowed to send their respective delegations to the World Chess Olympiad slated Oct. 27-Nov. 12 in Istanbul, Olympiad.
But while the PCF has its own set of backers which will help finance the participation of its five-player squad, the NCFP needed to seek the assistance of Malacañang after most of its perceived supporters backed out in the aftermath of the chess row.
