Science, Poetry & a History of Disrepair
Posted byKathryn Nuernberger March 12, 2020 Posted inNew WorkTags:Docupoetics, ecopoetics, Science and poetry
Southeast Review just came out with their new issue, which includes "A History of Disrepair," one of the poems I'd hoped to share on the AWP panel, Science at the Source, this year. Unfortunately, but necessarily, the panel was cancelled due to the pandemic. Go here to read that poem, which is about Genevieve Jones, a nineteenth century ornithologist, climate change anxiety, and what it means to love each other in a crisis.
Genevieve Jones
I'd also like to share some of the remarks I'd planned to make on that panel, which was organized by Rosalie Moffett and also included John James, Nomi Stone, and Rushi Vyas.
I am interested in science because I am interested in error. I am interested in learning as a process of determining which assumptions created confusion and unexpected insights that led to the understandings of the world I now think of as "known" or "true." In science error is an invitation to try asking different questions.
When Benjamin Franklin began his experiments with electricity the driving question about electricity was whether it was a wet or fire. Because the guiding framework for understanding the world was based on the elements, not the periodic table. When I was a fellow at the Bakken Museum of Electricity in Life scientists and historians of science would ask me what I was there to research. I started out saying "quack medicine" and was told "don't say 'quack' that's pejorative.'" I said "dead ends" and they said "you never know." I said "mistakes," "wrong thinking," "foolhardy notions" and they said "you'd be surprised what has turned out later to be true."
Which has me thinking about Cortney Lamar Charleston's poem "It's Important that I Remember a Current Event is a Current –" in Southeast Review:
…carries a charge, attracts the opposition's glee or anger
to the anonymous comment section. Of course, the current
state of affairs flows through me entirely, twists static
into my hair…
Cortney Lamar Charleston
Read the complete poem here.
Or "Elegy with Mayfly Sex" by Jihyun Yun from the same issue:
Love, I want to tell you all I learned today
of the mayfly, known for their one-day life spans.
How they're named after the fact of their fast deaths:
ephemeroptera, briefest of wings. How this isn't fully true,
as they can live submerged as nymphs for years until their sex
forces them out of the water. Just because we don't see
their living doesn't make it void….
A page of Carl Linnaeus's notebook
I became interested in science as a subject in my poems because of how fascinated I was by scientific processes at the beginning of the age of Enlightenment when so much scientific work was based on seeing – microscopes and many other ocular devices were brand new, devices like the chronometer were developed to create a precise way to talk about shared experiences perceiving the color blue. I liked reading scientists' notebooks and letters were the wonder was utterly unfettered; Carl Linnaeus makes some great tender and self-deprecating jokes in the course of his work on plant and animal taxonomies that are mixed in with some truly terrible drawings. Maria Sibylla Merian annotated her ecological illustrations of plants with their pollinators with information she learned from people indigenous to those ecosystems about the medicinal uses of the plants, the red bird of paradise for example was used as an abortifacient.
Maria Sibylla Merian
I don't have formal training as an historian and I was raised inside the white supremacist propaganda machine that is the prevailing curriculum in most US schools so I'm sorry to say I have learned slowly and at times only by accident or through the generosity of people willing to correct me important truths like how Carl Linnaeus was also the scientist who, in the course of his work on taxonomies, proposed the racist notion that there are four human races. Maria Sibylla Merian I learned used the labor of enslaved people to obtain her specimens, she did not credit or compensate her sources for the knowledge she commodified in her book and that knowledge, particularly about plants that could be used for birth control was likely used by slave-holding colonizers to further control the reproductive choices of people they believed they owned.
These kinds of errors, which are more precisely called moral failings, are to this day a part of the systems of science and are encouraged by the close relationships between research funding and for-profit enterprises.
I see Kabel Mishka Ligot raising these objections to the intertwining of systems of knowledge and systems of empire in "Duwende Sonnet/Applying for an O1-B Visa," also in the Southeast Review:
If I list the word enchantment under occupation, I imply that it's never been felt
on these islands. But people have always been running amok across all
oceans, returning home late at night with monstrous appetites, welts
embroidering their backs.
Kabel Mishka Ligot
We had planned to include a discussion of other poets engaging with science who have influenced us. If you are interested in reading more I suggest starting with:
John James's books Chthonic and The Milk Hours are great — you can start reading him here.
Rosalie Moffett's books are Nervous System and June in Eden, a selection of her poems is here.
Nomi Stone's Kill Class makes extraordinary use of research in the social sciences and you can also find a sample of her poems online here.
Rushi Vyas writes beautifully about science, faith, and imperialism. You can read some of his poems here.
I also love to recommend:
Brenda Hillman's tetralogy of books on the elements all provide different, interesting approaches to this subject. I'm particularly interested in Practical Water and Seasonal Works with Letters on Fire because of the way they incorporate transcripts and notes taken while she was doing work as an activist attending congressional hearings on the environment.
Camille Dungy's poems in Trophic Cascade and What to Eat, What to Drink, What to Leave for Poison, as well as her anthology Black Nature are essential reading for poets interested in writing about science.
Rosebud Ben-Oni's poems and also her work editing a special feature for the recent issue of Pleiades in which poets write on elements from the Periodic table.
Hahn Kimiko's Toxic Flora is such a great example of a poet engaging with science. She wrote her poems in response to a column about botany that appeared regularly in The New York Times and blends the precise rhetorical registers of science writing with the more affective possibilities in confessional lyric in such resonant ways.
Hopefully we'll get a chance to talk about these ideas and other at AWP in Kansas City next year.

Stephen Fry In America (6 x 60') – won Best Star Travel Documentary at the National TV Awards 2010 on January 21, the most coveted TV award in the UK voted by the public, and as such the truest indication of the popular appeal of the series. Produced for BBC One the hit series follows Stephen Fry as he travels around the United States in a black cab to discover, in his own inimitable style, what makes the country unique. This is a further coup for the series which has also been a hit in international television sales, selling to over 97 territories, along with best selling book and DVD.
Land Girls (5 x 45') – won a Broadcast Award last week for Best Daytime Programme. Produced by the BBC and broadcast on BBC1 to much critical acclaim at the end of 2009, the drama series follows the lives, loves, highs and lows of four 'Land Girls' set during WWII.
Richard Hammond's Blast Lab (26 x 30') – last but not least Richard Hammond won the Best Presenter Award for Richard Hammond's Blast Lab at the BAFTA Children's Awards on 30 November 2009. The first 26 x 30' series of the science gameshow have proved a huge ratings and sales success in the UK and beyond and 26 new episodes have just completed production, for broadcast on CBBC/BBC2 from 2010, taking the series to a total of 52 episodes sold by DCD Rights.

Introduction: Increasing numbers of hospital admissions is a complex issue of significant concern to health systems around the world, as a significant cost driver of healthcare is inpatient cost[i]. In Singapore, patients who are frequently admitted to hospitals, although comprising a small number, account for a disproportionately high use of scarce healthcare resources. While national efforts are currently underway to provide care planning and coordination to such patients, evidence shows that there is a need for case-finding of at-risk patients before they deteriorate[ii]. To date, most predictive models for frequent admissions are derived using administrative and clinical data, and little is known about the psychosocial, behavioural and environmental factors which contribute to frequent admissions in the local context[iii].
Aims: This study aims to Understand how psychosocial, behavioural and environmental factors contribute to frequent admissions, and identify the gaps in current services to address these factors; and Understand how frequent admitters and their caregivers cope with physical, mental and financial stress.
Methods: A qualitative approach was used, where in-depth, semi-structured interviews (n=42) and focus group discussions (n=2) were conducted with 41 health and community care providers, and 13 frequent admitters (defined as patients with three or more admissions in a year) and/or caregivers recruited from both the National University Hospital and community care sectors through purposive sampling. Data analysis was done using a deductive approach[iv].
Results and Key Findings: Key psychosocial factors contributing to frequent admissions included social isolation, the lack of caregiver support or capability, anxious caregivers, caregiver stress and perceptionsthat hospital care was superior to community care. Behavioural factors included lack of motivation for self-care while environmental factors included poor communication during care transition between healthcare settings, and financial subsidy schemes which favour hospital rather than community care. Neighbours and friends were found to be an importance source of social support in preventing readmissions, while religion was found to have mixed impact on how patients or caregivers coped with illness.
Discussion and Lessons Learnt: This study highlights the importance ofaddressing social isolation, and that informal networks such as neighbours and friends are an often overlooked source of psychosocial support for patients and their caregivers. Secondly, caregiver training, education and provision of respite services should also be in place to support caregivers in the community. Thirdly, a concerted effort is needed to address patients' socio-cultural beliefs and perceptions about healthcare, while concurrently improving care integration between healthcare settings.
Limitations: Comparatively more healthcare professionals than patients and caregivers were interviewed in this study, as many patients were too ill to be interviewed.
Suggestions for Future Research: The findings of this study could be used to develop asurvey to understand the prevalence of factors identified in this study among frequent admitters. A screening tool could then be developed to screen individuals at-risk for frequent admissions so that pre-emptive interventions could be instituted.

For each member of the voguing scene, being on the scene — as a dancer, a runway diva or just a member of a house — feels like a journey of initiation. This can that lead to a double discovery: the discovery of the voguing culture, rich and complex, and then important self-discovery, too.
We will explore this duality in the two remaining videos of our Voguers of Paris docu-series. We will first look into the journeys of several voguers, then we will discuss with them the repercussions of the voguing culture on their personal lives.
For this fourth video, we meet Isaiah Balenciaga (who is also the mother of the Kiki House of Mulan), Riggs Ultra Omni and Tee Jay Khan (who is the Father of the Kiki House of Mercyless). They remember their first steps and discuss their own journey on the scene, which involves finding a name, joining a house (or leaving a house), and finding the category that suits each voguer best.
We first explored the origins of the French Voguing scene (in Voguers of Paris, Chapter 1), and then we looked into the houses. In the third episode of Voguers of Paris, we catch up with Fathers Charly Ebony and Vinii Revlon, who organized the United States of Africa Ball back in October, sponsored by Hornet.

Here are the results around Europe, as Liverpool claim the Premier League Trophy at last, and Arsenal a maiden Champions League crown.

I put in a player of the match performance in Sweden's defeat against Japan.
Sadly, it was time to say goodbye to my club manager, Tuca Ferreti, as he retires from the game. I owe him so much after a season in which I appeared 59 times in all competitions, and further improved my game over the last two years. This last season has been the best of my career to date, and I owe it all to him.
My in-game manager is offered the Saint-Etienne job, as I accidentally continued rather than holidayed I have to reject it though
Olivier Frapolli is the new man at the helm, after guiding RC Lens to 8th place in the Ligue 1 last year. Hopefully I can enjoy my football under him too, although rumour has it he favours a flat 4-4-2 formation. I hope that's not the case, as both myself and Alen Halilovic, arguably our two star players, prefer to play between the lines in the attacking midfield strata. It remains to be seen how we will line up this season.
Here is the summary of my performances from the last season. 29 goals, 18 assists, 9 POM awards, all club records, and ones I intend to break again next season!
This is how I'm shaping up heading into the new season. I have definitely improved over the last year, and I'm really making that step up to be considered elite, as reflected by my market value. The club have informed me that they won't be letting me go for even double or triple that sum!
I've started preseason at a flying pace, with 7 goals and an assist in just 5 appearances, including 3 from the bench. With Champions League qualifiers coming up, it's important that we hit the ground running.
Transfer on the Horizon...?
Currently the only club credited with an interest in me is Barcelona, and I seem to be their main target. 94m is a very steep sum though.
Real Madrid's primary target is a gun striker from Marseille.
The truth is, a move to Barcelona would be a huge honour for me. I'd definitely rather play for them than Real Madrid, and my ideal destinations, Liverpool and Dortmund, don't appear to be showing interest at the moment.
Barca4ever11
Wow,what a fantastic season you just made,and insane stats,wow again.
Join the mighty Barca,i would of love that but it's your choice.
Barca4ever11 said:
Thanks man, it was pretty successful I'd say. Barca is a possibility for sure, unfortunately it's not up to me

That's the exact phrase that i wanted to use.
Indeed,prob. Patty's kinda busy,and have one more story to deal with it.
You're probably right
I'll try guys Thanks for the support
The Champions League qualifying round arrived, and I upped my game again. I scored and was named player of the match in the first leg, a 3-0 win, and in the second leg I exploded. No less than 4 of our 6 goals sealed a 9-0 aggregate triumph over Swiss heavyweights Basel.
I was awarded a perfect match rating of 10, and was "hailed as a god-like figure" by the Saint-Etienne faithful. I have a real affinity with the fans here at the Stade Geoffroy-Guichard, and have no desire to force a move away from a place where I am happy.
Lippo255
Tearing Europe to threads & still only 19! Insane!
Lippo255 said:
Can't really complain about how things are going I seem to have avoided the Lippo injury curse somehow
Barcelona seem to have switched their attentions to my team-mate Alen Halilovic, who they sold to us just a year ago for a bargain fee of 1.4m. I love playing alongside him, so I'm hoping that their interest doesn't materialise into a formal offer.
Meanwhile, I've been named vice-captain of the club. This is a huge honour for me - and if the objective is to discourage me from leaving, I'd say it's working. I'm happier here than ever!

According to the state Department of Public Safety, 13 people lost their lives in 12 motor vehicle accidents during the Independence Day holiday period, but Lenoir and Jones counties were spared.
�There was just a lot of traffic moving through the county, and we�re thankful everyone got through Lenoir and Jones counties safely,� NCHP First Sgt. Charles Johnston said.
Johnston added that during the past week, local state troopers arrested 17 people for driving while intoxicated.
During the period of 6 p.m. Wednesday to midnight Sunday, during which the state Department of Public Safety kept statistics for the holiday, there were eight reported accidents in Lenoir and Jones counties, one of which was alcohol-related.
Prior to the state trooper arriving at the scene, the record states Jones allegedly fled the scene to a witness� residence stating, �He wrecked a car and needed a ride home.� The trooper reporting to the scene estimated the vehicle was traveling at 55 mph when it hit the ditch.
Jones was cited for operating in an erratic, reckless, careless negligent or aggressive manner and use of alcohol.
In 2012, 14 people lost their lives on the roadways statewide during the holiday period.

International Aid
Orphan Grain Train Convention 2019
Families in Hawaii Blessed
OGT recently donated $20,000.00 for volcano Kilauea victims in Hawaii. Pastor Mark Zier with Christ Lutheran Church in Hilo, Hawaii received the funds and divided it equally among 4 families as they dealt with being displaced and/or lost their homes as a result of lava flow in the Puna district. One of the families helped was a single mom with two teenage children. Early in the eruption, prior to any contact with OGT, the daughter's piano recital had to be relocated because of the eruption and Christ Lutheran provided their sanctuary and baby grand piano for their use on a Sunday afternoon. While the son sat in the church, he saw a Prayer Request card in the pew rack in front of him and filled it out asking for prayers as the lava was about to take their home. He left the card with his phone number and Pastor Zier contacted him the next week to make arrangements to provide a $100 gift card to them. The family's home was taken by the lava a few days later, but they had family with whom they could stay. Even though they received an insurance settlement, they needed furniture, a refrigerator and some other revisions for their new home. The $5,000.00 gift from OGT came at a critical moment for them and the mother was in tears as she received the check. They had been through a traumatic situation with her divorce, she battled breast cancer, they were affected by a hurricane and threatened with the last eruption on the island a few years ago, so this event was one more struggle they endured with God's help. Pastor Zier shared with OGT of "Feeling blessed that Christ Lutheran Church has been blessed to be the conduit through which these funds from Orphan Grain Train have been delivered to these very needy and deserving families. What a privilege it is to see the hope through the tears as people learn of and receive these funds. Thank you for the opportunity to make a real significant difference in the lives of these families that will impact them for the rest of their lives. Most of all thank you for the joy of helping these people Experience Christ's Love!"

North Webster HS Coaches, Teammates, Classmates Mourning Drowning Victims
May 18, 2021 May 18, 2021 / Winn Parish Journal
Shock and sadness enveloped North Webster High School as word spread beginning Sunday evening that sophomore student-athletes Donald Owens and Tavious Tate had drowned Sunday afternoon in a Claiborne Parish creek.
The two close friends were football and basketball players who were well-regarded by everyone at the school, head football coach John Ware said on Monday afternoon.
"Both were good kids. They had all the world in front of them, and that's what makes it hurt so bad. It's just a complete tragedy," he said.
Owens and Tate were in the middle of spring football practice, having worked out with the Knights last Thursday and Friday. More practices were slated in the next couple weeks but Ware was unsure when they would resume.
"We were planning on a couple days this week and next week, but right now that's all on hold. I don't know what we'll do yet," he said. "We have some kids, especially, who are hit pretty hard by this."
Owens and Tate were alike, even down to their positions on the team and their jersey numbers, said Ware.
"I didn't think of one without the other. If I was talking about either one of those two kids, the other one was on the tip of my tongue. They were so similar – same grade, same build, a lot of the same characteristics.
"One of them was Number 86, the other was 87. They were gonna be our starting cornerbacks this fall."
As word spread, some teammates and coaches gathered at the Knights' stadium at 8:30 Sunday night to talk about Owens and Tate. Others shared their emotions with Ware during the school day Monday.
"I told them (Sunday night) that sometimes you don't get to choose what you deal with. Nobody wants to be in this situation, dealing with this, but it is part of life," he said. "This group of kids, they'll get through. They'll always remember their friends, but it will just take a while to bounce back."
The pain of losing classmates and teammates is sadly too familiar at North Webster High School, and for the Knights' football program and Ware, about to begin his 10th season as their head coach.
"Four years ago, (football player) Jalen Thomas was murdered, and we're just now getting over that," said Ware, who has been a head coach for 16 years. "We've had some tragedies in our school in the last 4-5 years, regular students and student-athletes, more than our fair share, that's for sure. It certainly doesn't get any easier.
"You go through different situations, but there isn't a guide for this."

And there it is, in the gathering gloom. Squashed in between sheer rock walls and the much-abused Colorado River - squeezed dry in its later stages to service the lawn sprinklers of L.A. and here in the canyon half-filled with the rubble and concrete of America's most expensive highway.
At five past eight we enter Moffat Tunnel, the third longest in the world. It runs beneath the watershed of the Rocky Mountains, the Continental Divide, reducing what was a five-hour journey for Phileas Fogg to ten minutes today.

Mon Ami Raises $3.4M Seed Round

Mon Ami, the company tackling social isolation in aging, today announced the closing of its $3.4M seed financing. The funding round was led by Freestyle Ventures and Cowboy Ventures with participation from Maverick Ventures, Felicis Ventures, and angel investor Bruce Dunlevie. Proceeds will go towards expansion into additional cities as well as overall company growth. By pairing college students with seniors for social visits, Mon Ami's marketplace focuses not just on life extension but life enrichment filling a much-needed gap in the senior care service industry. Families can easily connect with energetic, compassionate college students to provide companionship and friendship for a loved one. Founded on the belief that intergenerational relationships will build stronger communities, Mon Ami is creating meaningful connections with the world's fastest growing population.
Mon Ami brings joy to aging by helping families find good company so older loved ones stay socially connected. By pairing older adults with college students for social visits, Mon Ami's marketplace focuses on life enrichment not just life extension. Founded on the belief that intergenerational relationships build stronger communities, Mon Ami is creating meaningful connections with the world's fastest growing population. To learn more: https://www.monami.io/.
More than 34 million family members and friends in the US provide care to older adults. What our culture tends to overlook is that, beyond care for basic physical needs, companionship and meaningful human connection play a key role in healthy aging and has been shown to greatly improve quality of life. Instead of finding someone to tend to a loved one, Mon Ami pairs older adults for one-on-one visits with a young person to go to museums, learn a new language or share a good laugh. Students apply because they want to get out of their campus bubble, want to have a grandparent figure in their life, or they themselves are lonely.
"There is so much worry, fear, and feelings of responsibility that fall on the shoulders of families and individuals caring for aging loved ones," said Joy Zhang, Mon Ami co-founder. "There are ways to ensure physical safety and care for seniors, but what's hardest to provide is everything that makes us human: joy, connection, meaning and enrichment. That's what Mon Ami does best."

I need to create/update/delete files in a directory (and its subdirectories) every time an SVN repo is updated.
I was told this can be done writing a script which uses output from svnlook changed command.
I wonder: Is there an already written script for this?
svnlook is usually used in a post-commit hook, but the hooks are run by SVN server. So unless your directory is located on the SVN server, it won't do you much good.
Consider creating a simple cron job with svn update.
Is there an already written script for this?
Simple web-frontend for remote svn administration?
How can I estimate the final size and processing time necessary to dump my entire repo?
After svn switch - (405 METHOD_NOT_ALLOWED) or (500 Internal Server Error), why?
Can a "virtual" SVN repository be created whose own folders point to folders in another repository (like a FS mount)?


And earlier in the course we talked about three key tactics.
Number one, getting to know the other side.
And finally, using psychological tools and avoiding psychological traps.
in which case you could probably skip this step since you already know that person.
start talking about the actual details of the negotiation, as we discussed earlier.
it's a very worthwhile exercise.
Second piece of this is understanding your power.
And as we discussed in the course, there are a couple of elements of power.
did you ask questions and did you listen carefully and gather information?
Because in a general sense, information is what gives you power in a negotiation.
It's not trying to persuade the other side.
It's listening carefully and gathering that information.
For example, if you were Pat in this case, did you ask Tracy about the uncle?
What's the name of your uncle?
How long has your uncle been in the house?
Why is the uncle selling?
bad health, run-down house, needs to sell.
perhaps the most important aspect, and that's your BATNA strategy.
find out what their BATNA was and how powerful they are?
were you able to weaken their power?
they're going to buy another piece of property on Main Street for 265,000.
Now, think of how you could play with that information to weaken their power.
You're a large multinational company.
cover the lot with asphalt and turn it into a parking lot.
Can you imagine how outraged the people in this community are going to be?
There are going to be protests.
You're going to lose any good will right off the bat.
It's going to destroy your business opportunities.
That's how you play with their sense of their BATNA.
That's how you play with their power, how you weaken their power.
And then the final piece of BATNA strategy is improving your own power.
really has an awful BATNA.
We have a elderly man, bad health, rundown house, no other buyers.
So what you should do to improve your BATNA is obviously find other buyers.
if I were Tracy, I'd start by touching up the house.
I'd buy some cans of paint and paint the house.
Do it myself if I had to, to try to make the house look better.
Number two, I would actively search for other buyers.
It sounds like the owner, the sellers were very relaxed about finding other buyers.
bring in other buyers, which then improves my power and strengthens my BATNA.
that's specifically your BATNA strategy in this negotiation.

Employee facing rebuke for Hatch Act violation
May 26, 2020 at 10:11 a.m.
Running for partisan political office is a violation of the Hatch Act.
The Postal Service is continuing its Hatch Act education campaign.
The Hatch Act is a law that prohibits postal and other federal employees from engaging in political activity while on duty, while wearing a uniform, while on federal property or while inside a federal vehicle.
It also prohibits executive branch employees from running for partisan political office and from soliciting or receiving political contributions at any time.
In a new message, USPS highlights the case of "Renee" — not her real name — an employee who twice ran for partisan political office.
Representatives from the U.S. Office of Special Counsel (OSC), a federal agency that oversees enforcement of the Hatch Act, warned Renee that running for this office would violate the law. Renee ignored the warnings and won the election.
An OSC complaint against Renee seeks disciplinary action. Possible penalties include a reprimand, suspension, removal and debarment from federal employment, and a civil fine.
USPS previously told employees about:
"Travis," an employee who distributed campaign signs at work
"Bradley," a letter carrier who broadcast a political endorsement on social media while on duty and sitting in a postal vehicle
"Daneisha," a letter carrier who wrote "corrections" on Political Mail pieces
"Sandy," who placed a political candidate's sign in the window of her postal vehicle
The Ethics Blue page has more Hatch Act resources, including a "Let's Talk Politics!" fact sheet. Employees who have questions can contact their local field law office or send an email to ethics.help@usps.gov.
Employee's Facebook posts violated Hatch Act
Remember "Travis," the USPS employee who violated the Hatch Act by attempting to distribute signs for his favorite presidential candidate at the Post Office where he works?
Bad sign
Employee suspended after Hatch Act violation
The Postal Service is again educating employees about the Hatch Act by providing examples of co-workers who broke the law.
Know the rules
Hatch Act training reminder offered
The Postal Service recently announced its Strategic Learning Initiatives for fiscal year 2020, which include a course on employee political activity and the Hatch Act.

What advice would you give a novice in Chess?
I am a bit of a new blood when it comes to Chess. Oh I know how to play but before I started getting more serious it was more like flailing about and hoping for the best. Recently I came to the conclusion that a game like Chess can be quite beneficial towards my cognitive development and I simply love the elegance and depth of the board.
But I was hoping to get some advice from the more advance players. (Which from my experience level would be about everyone, lol.) As in,
What would you wish someone told you when you first started getting into playing? How do you resist stagnation? Is there some etiquette that players are expected to know but don't necessarily teach?
learning strategy etiquette beginner
Rauan Sagit
tactics is everything at novice chess (well, not above from knowing the rules of the game). From there, I recommend studying at least 3 openings for each color, endgames (mate with k+r, etc) and some positional play. – ajax333221 Feb 21 '14 at 17:17
1) Study the games of masters. I would recommend earlier masters like Morphy, Lasker, Capablanca, etc. Studying their "simple" games will better your understanding to study more "complicated" games of Fischer, Karpov, Kasparov, Anand or Carlsen.
2) Study the endgame. I recommend Understanding Chess Endgames by John Nunn.
3) Practice and improve your tactical skills. There are many online tactics websites that can help you in that regard, like chesstempo.
4) Enjoy playing chess! Without enjoyment, it's difficult to learn. But don't waste time playing useless 2 or 3 minute blitz games. These won't help you to improve much. Play games with longer time controls, especially in tournaments if possible.
5) Get a good chess engine to analyze your games. I would recommend Stockfish, which is a free engine. However, if you're willing to spend more money, I recommend a powerful engine like Houdini with Chessbase 12. Note that you can also use Stockfish with ChessBase 12. I often use it myself. It's a very strong engine and Houdini is just very sligtly better (for beginners, that shouldn't make much of a difference).
6) Never leave any of your games unanalyzed. That's a serious waste of the time you have spent playing those games and also a loss of the things you could potentially have learned. Never put off analyzing a game for more than a week. My experience is that you remember the lessons learned from your games the earlier you analyze your games. Of course, you need to make good notes on your games.
7) Watch this inspiring video! :) Bobby Fischer - Anything to Win. Caution: I'm asking you to be inspired only by the way Bobby Fischer trained to play chess and win; not to be inspired by his paranoia or his other questionable activities!
8) Study the openings and opening principles. Although this isn't that important for beginners compared to the other things I mentioned, it is nevertheless very important to play good openings to have good positions to play.
Okay, here are some points: 1) Don't follow dogma religiously and without understanding. You may hear a lot of dogma such as 'develop knights before bishops', 'dont move the same piece twice in the opening', etc. IMO such 'rules' are better learnt the hard way after playing some games and there are always exceptions.
2) Play lot of games! This is the only way to improve.
3) Avoid playing the computer. Though some computer programs can adjust their level according to the human player they would typically make mistakes which no human being would make. So playing a computer would typically not prepare a person for playing against a human.
4) Your opponent is your best teacher! During your game you may find your opponent uses some nice tactics or strategies. Though you may have lost that particular game you could use those same tactics and strategies in your future games!
5) Analyze games which you lost. Former world champion Capablanca famously said that you learn more from the games you lose than from the ones you win. This is quite true. You need to know why you lost. Was it a blunder, a mistake in the opening, or was it simply a case of being outplayed?
6) Play with people who are higher rated than you. If you play with the same crowd you will not learn anything new. Typically playing with somebody who is about 200 points above would be ideal. However, it may be difficult to find such a person to play with you as he would also aspire to play with people higher rated than him!
7) Look up some theory occasionally. I know I mentioned earlier that lessons are best learnt the hard way. But if the game improvement is stagnating, it may be the right time to look up some theory. If you are serious about chess then you should get a chess book which atleast covers all the important openings. You don't need to read it all at once, nor is that recommended but you need to have a book which you can refer to from time to time.
8) Don't play too much blitz. This could hurt the regular games.

I like all of these. I would only add to study checkmates first (learn how to win a won game), and then other tactics. – Guy Schalnat Jun 20 '15 at 4:26
Here are a few words on chess
Chess is decision making under pressure.
Learn to counter-attack (including prophylaxis).
Keep "asking questions" - keep making new threats and problems.
Study endgames. All the major types of endgames. Many players are weak in this area.
Many go for a knock-out in the opening and middlegame. Be ready for this.
Control the center and understand why this is important.
Learn how pieces collaborate and find "strong teams" among them.

how can "prophylaxis" appear on the same line as "counter-attack"? I understand prophylaxis to be a supremely defensive maneuver, even to the point of losing a counter-attack opportunity or at least not carrying the initiative. – Marcus Junius Brutus Feb 25 '14 at 21:49
@MarcusJuniusBrutus prophylaxis is about foreseeing the opponent's idea and placing the pieces in such a way that they counter-measure this idea. It doesn't have to be passive at all. My point was to use prophylaxis and when the opponent fails to grasp this and goes for the idea anyhow, then the prophylaxis will allow a nice counter-attack. – Rauan Sagit Feb 25 '14 at 21:58
What I did in the beginning was I went to my library which had weekly sessions of chess, and we would play other people that went there and after a while I was invited to competitions. After doing that for a while instead of going to competitions I went to chess.com and played people on there. You can go and find chess books and review what pieces are which piece. Such that the pawn moves one square at a time, and only forward. And on their first move they can choose to move 1 or 2 spaces forward. Etc. Hope I helped!

Chess playing circles are excellent places to absorb things by osmosis. I initially thought I was quite decent because I could beat most people in high school/college but until I visited my first chess club and played an actual "rated" Expert player, I really never appreciated the depth/nuances this game presented. (The Expert silently let me know that I was nothing more than an advanced beginner!) So playing in a city club provides an excellent vignette of how fun/hard this game can be ... and allows you to decide how/when/if you want to invest in getting better or just play for fun. – shivsky Feb 20 '14 at 14:48
I would echo @shivsky in saying that chess.com is a great place to learn. In addition to just playing the game online, they have all sorts of other ways to learn strategy and tactics. And, no, I am in no way affiliated with chess.com – Nick Allen Feb 21 '14 at 0:20
@Nick: I never said anything about chess.com in my comment :) – shivsky Feb 21 '14 at 12:50
The above advises are absolutely good in almost all cases . My advice would be first to treat Chess as a Study and just not a game between two Players.
Please analyse some Chess games , understand the openings , the Middle games and the End game .
The best Algorithm is that Start with the End games first . You will understand the value of Pieces better , their Activity & Coordination . Then gradually you understand the Middle Game and then the Openings .

London Spy: TV Series Review
London Spy, is a BBC spy thriller series about a man whose MI6-operative lover is murdered. It stars Ben Whishaw as Daniel, Edward Holcroft as Alex and Jim Broadbent as Scottie.
London Spy: Logline
In London, a gay man discovers his MI6-operative lover dead. He suspects a cover up, but with the conspirators seemingly all-powerful he has to sacrifice everything to discover the truth.
London Spy: Plot Summary
Warning: My reviews contain spoilers. Major spoilers are blacked out like this [blackout]secret[/blackout]. To view them, just select/highlight them.
Daniel, a lonely, gay man, meets Alex, a merchant banker. They begin an affair, but then Alex disappears. Daniel is sent the keys to Alex's apartment, and when he goes there he discovers Alex is dead. He also discovers Alex was not telling him the truth, but was in fact an MI6 agent and that Alex has left him a locked cylinder that might hold the key to his death.
Daniel hides the cylinder. He tries to publicise his belief that Alex was murdered but the newspapers smear him. Meeting Alex's parents, he suspects they are lying to him about Alex. Several people, including Alex's mother, warn Daniel not to investigate Alex's death, but he remains determined to find out who was responsible.
The police arrest Daniel and accuse him of murdering Alex. Afterwards, he discovers he is HIV positive, probably because he was infected during his arrest. Realising he has no way to fight his powerful enemies on his own, he tells Scottie about the cylinder. Scottie tries to find out what is behind the conspiracy, but finds himself stonewalled. Daniel receives a mysterious phone call.
The phone call leads to Daniel meeting a man who convinces Daniel he was hired to seduce Alex. Daniel gives up on discovering the secret of Alex's death, but then he guesses the code to unlock the cylinder…
Inside is [blackout]all of Alex's research. Alex's professor deciphers the research and tells Danny it's a remote lie detector based on speech patterns. Scottie is abducted and murdered.[/blackout]
Daniel[blackout] is distraught at Scottie's death. Still determined to fight the conspiracy, he posts and then emails Alex's research to the world's media, but it is all intercepted. Daniel's estranged parents visit him. Too late, Daniel realises it's a trick to wipe the research from the cylinder. With only one printed copy of the research left, he goes to Alex's mother again. She admits everything including not being Alex's real mother. Alex tries to persuade her to join his hopeless crusade. She refuses, but after more revelations, including that she was present when Alex was killed, joins him.[/blackout]
London Spy: Analysis
London Spy is not strongly plot-driven, but has, broadly, a Conspiracy plot (see spy story ideas).
The 'Conspiracy' Plot
The Protagonist:
Witnesses an Inciting Incident with a group of Antagonists.
Realises they are not safe from the Antagonists.
Is also not safe from the authorities, as they are tricked or infiltrated by the Antagonists.
Goes on the run, pursued by both the Antagonists and the authorities.
Involves one or more Allies in their escape (Optionally, there is a romance sub-plot with one of the Allies).
Narrowly avoids capture and death (or is captured and escapes) by both the Antagonists and the authorities.
Discovers who the Antagonists are.
Persuades the authorities they should work together to stop the Antagonists.
Confronts the Antagonists and stops (or fails to stop) them.
Daniel doesn't physically go on the run though, instead living with constant paranoia and dread, and as the antagonists are the authorities he has no hope of turning to them.
This is London Spy's strong point, it's beautifully acted by a cast of heavyweight actors. Ben Whishaw, Edward Holcroft and Jim Broadbent are all excellent.
London Spy is beautifully staged and the cinematography is great, but it's moody, reflective and emotional – more Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy than Spectre. And even compared to Le Carré it's slow and lacking in incident,
Other critics have argued that London Spy is not in fact a spy drama at all, but simply a drama dressed up with some spy motifs. It's true that it's slow-burning,and the conspiracy elements don't make a lot of sense, but that's because London Spy is Kafkaesque: the system is all-powerful, and Daniel is almost helpless.
This also perhaps explains away the main problem with the plot – why the antagonists don't simply kill Daniel once they realise he will not be put off investigating Alex's death. Why do they just keep making his life more and more difficult and unpleasant? What, from their point of view, is the point of toying with him? It seems like pure plot necessity – they can't kill Daniel because then the story would be over. But placing the protagonist in a nightmarish and somewhat surreal situation with a faceless and omnipotent evil is typical of Kafkaesque drama.
The ending is also in keeping with the Kafkaesque theme, though I found it a little disappointing. Many people are saying it was a set up for Season Two, but to me it didn't feel like a cliffhanger, wait-to-see-what-happens-next ending, but simply a restatement of the hopelessness of the individual fighting the system.
Reality: Gareth Williams
Gareth Williams was a GCHQ employee on secondment to MI6 who was found dead in his apartment, locked inside a bag. The inquest ruled he was murdered after experts showed it would have been virtually impossible for him to have locked himself in the bag. In 2015, a defector claimed the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service had murdered Williams to protect the identity of a mole in GCHQ.
London Spy: My Rating
Great drama, featuring exquisite cinematography and acting, be aware though that it's not a thriller.
