You won't find out about it on CNN but the World Chess Championship is underway in Mexico City.  The official FIDE page is available here:

Would it be possible for the West Ham and Sheffield United nonsense to be over?  This is faintly ridiculous actually.  Now players from the team are actually pretending to be Mike Tyson in Iceland:

Today I'm in the Madison office on the lovely Eastside of Madison. Google has been kind enough to provide a little map of where you can find me today. I'm messing around with this because I'm going to be on the road so much in October that you will need a map to find me.

Sounds crazy, but I'll hardly be in Madison anytime in October.  There's the ICANN meeting in Los Angeles, a RIPE meeting in Amsterdam, the ARIN meeting in Albuquerque, a meeting with ETNO in Brussels, a BT confab in Washington DC and another BT meeting in London.  All in all, a schedule that piles on the frequent flyer miles.  I'm learning to pack light (a goal expressed on Leo's Vegoda's blog as well).
