St. Bernadette Soubirous

Feast Day: April 16
Died: 1879

Famed visionary of Lourdes, baptized Mary Bernard. She was born in Lourdes, France, on January 7, 1844, the daughter of Francis and Louise Soubirous. Bernadette, a severe asthma sufferer, lived in abject poverty. On February 11, 1858, she was granted a vision of the Blessed Virgin Mary in a cave on the banks of the Gave River near Lourdes. She was placed in consider able jeopardy when she reported the vision, and crowds gathered when she had futher visits from the Virgin, from February 18 of that year through March 4.The civil authorities tried to frighten Bernadette into recanting her accounts, but she remained faithful to the vision. On February 25, a spring emerged from the cave and the waters were discovered to be of a miraculous nature, capable of healing the sick and lame. On March 25, Bernadette announced that the vision stated that she was the Immaculate Conception, and that a church should be erected on the site. Many authorities tried to shut down the spring and delay the construction of the chapel, but the influence and fame of the visions reached Empress Eugenie of France, wife of Napoleon Ill, and construction went forward. Crowds gathered, free of harassment from the anticlerical and antireligious officials.

R6 Aguilar vs Sol Cruz

1st Saturday Magnolia Non-Masters
Perez Bldg, Paranaque City
R6 G/25'
White: Cris Aguilar, 1810
Black: Rhal Sol Cruz, 1699

Position after Rhal's 1... Bf4 which Rybka evaluates as equal.


The game continued:
2. Bxf4 Nxf4 
3. Ne7+?? Rxe7 -+
4. Rxe7 Qxg2#


Result: [0-1]

R3 Sol Cruz vs Bersamina

Easter Cup

Meralco, Pasig City

4 Bc4 Bc5

"So the bottom line of the Scotch Gambit , 4 Bc4, is that 4... Bb4+?! is to be avoided, 4...Nf6 is the safe choice and 4... Bc5 is the most double-edged." - Transpo Tricks in Chess

Dzindzichashvili vs Karpov 1988
Fritz vs Anand 1999
Babujian vs Sargissian 2005
Sarakauskiene vs Makropoulou 2008
Xie vs Delchev 2008

On 5 O-O Nf6

"Another virtue is that after 4... Bc5 5 O-O Black has an extra 5... d6 option. His idea is not 6 c3 dxc3?! - because that transposes into an unattractive Goring. Better is 6... Bg4 with unclear play." Transpo Tricks in Chess

On 7 c3 O-O

According to Rybka, Black gets a slight advantage with 7... h6 or 7... Bg4.

On 9 e5? dxe5

This capture gives Black a slight advantage; destroys White's strong center.

On 11... Ne4?

The correct move is 11... Ng4, winning  a precious pawn.

On 13 Nbd2? Nxd2

Wins a pawn and creating a second weakness - doubled pawn.

R1 Sol Cruz vs Moje

Easter Cup
Meralco, Pasig City
White: Rhal Sol Cruz
Black: John Moje



Result: 1-0

Rhal's 10 d4 is a blunder. He has played this opening many times and this blunder could only be caused by carelessness.
