NEWS & VIEWS 7-14-05Wendy's LXVIII Begins; Rangarajan Returns!? Charlotte, NC 7-13-05: A moderate turnout of 32 of the greater Charlotte area's most creative competitors converged upon this think tank where pseudo scientists ruminate more commonly known as Wendy's in order to participate in Rd:1 of Wendy's LXVIII. In the Top Section, the CCC's #1 player and North Carolina's offically highest rated player SM  Karthik "Rajah"
Rangarajan (2468)
returned to CCC
competition by meeting stiff resistance in the form of one Patrick "Fabio" McCartney (1997) yielding a
Draw. (See
Game 0492) (Rangarajan has never lost a single
game in his entire USCF career!) Meanwhile, sharing the
lead with 1-0,
the CCC's #2 player, the
pride of Crouse, NC, NM Frankie "Neutrino"
Newton (2299) AKA "the Gladiator" welcomed
Gary "the Nuisance" Newsom (1987) back to
competition and recording the
biggest upset of the week, Michael "Jordan" Kliber (1911) clobbered
CCC Favorite Son Expert Chris "the Babe" Mabe (2176); his first loss in
quite some time. In addition, NM Leland
"El Perro" Fuerstman (2003)
scored a few knock  downs but ended up
going the distance with Laura
"Karate Kid" Lee (1805) before
blundering away
the win and Drawing. In the "B" Section,
Dave "Ameen" Eadie (1638) used kryptonite on mild
mannered Clarke "Kent" Brosi (1767), "Iron" Mike Eberhardinger (1799) put the
hammer down on Marty "Fritz" Katz (1734), Amelia "Wheels" Wheeless (1640)
drowned in the Jonathan
"Henry" Hudson (1692) river, Donald "Trump" Hofer (1605) fired Ankit "Butch"
Jivan (1622) and Jackie "Bman"
Ryan (1729) did a
number on Spencer "Jazzman" Singleton (1469). In the "C" Section, Viktor "the Mad Russian" Ozherelyev (1530) foiled Keith
"Sherlock" Holmes (1434), Winfred
"Guns" Gatlin (1476) shot out
the tires of Colette "Wheels" Wheeless (1533) and Adam "Matrix" Clontz (1463) defeated Hassah "HH"
Hashemloo (1251). In the Lower
Section, wins were
reported by Duncan "Doughnuts"
McLaughlin, Chang "Moon" Sun and Jimmy Fan. All results may be observed on the "Current Crosstable E-mail

Top Honors; Abdelkefi, McAdams, Singleton, Wheeless
=1st-4th in Lower Section of Bertucci's I Charlotte NC 7-16-05: A grand total of 23 chessplayers from hither and yon travelled to the Queen City in order to participate in Bertucci's I. (Believe it or not, Bertucci's Italian Restaurant is actually better than Billy's! The simi-private playing area was spacious and well lighted, the traditional Italian cuisine was delicious, reasonably priced and far more than I could eat, and the servers and management made us feel very welcome.)  In the Top Section,
returning to CCC
competition, with 3 seconds left, Expert Michael "See You Are; See You Are
You" Curcuru (2114)
miraculously survived a Rd:1
debacle Drawing 10 year old phenom Joshua
"Moo" Mu
(1677) before defeating Dan "Ski" Andrzejewski (1760) in Rd:2 and Expert Chris "the Babe"
Mabe (2176) in Rd:3 to score 2.5-.5 and
share =1st-2nd Place with NM Leland "Perro-Grande" Fuerstman (2003) who dispatched of
Tom Hales (1646) in Rd:1,
yielded a Draw to Randy
"Wheels" Wheeless (1707) in Rd:2 and defeated Joshua
"Moo" Mu (1677) in Rd:3 each
winning $80. In the Lower
Section, =1st-4th were Kaled "the Alphabet" Abdelkefi (1560), Jeff "Chief" McAdams (1520), Spencer "Jazzman" Singleton (1477) and Colette "Wheels" Wheeless (1587) each
scoring 2.5-.5
and winning $40.
