Sunday, November 26th, 2006, I will defend my Title in the Chinese Chess Swiss Championship.

It is free and open to anyone !

I will be playing the The Geneva Bughouse Gathering 2006 tournament on Sat 19th August 2006. It is a variant of chess, very wild, played with four players in teams of two. The photo on my profile has been taken in the 2005 edition.

at least we got one record in the world cup 2006. We are the first team in world cup history that got eliminated without receiving one goal

Germany we are coming

I bought a new PC at Eastern. I have installed 100Gb partition for Linux and 100Gb for Windows. I tried Fedora Core 5 and OpenSuse 10.0, in 64bit mode.

I currently spend most of my “free” time to prepare the OCA Application Server certification, next friday (28th).

Tonight I borrowed a game from a friend : Unreal Tournament 2004. I haven’t play such a game since a long time, and I must say, I enjoyed it very much. I am just overtired now. The graphic is fast, it is easy to master (well, I played at the novice level) and it is something I would never recommend to my kids ! Just shooting everywhere …

Well, they are just too young now, but Dora is really mastering Memory Game and she can even write her name when she achieved a high score! Yesterday she had her fourth birthday.

In case you like this game and live in Zurich, I will be playing the swiss championship tomorrow.
