People believe that it originated in India in the fourth or fifth century but no one really knows who invented it.

The winner is the person who solves the puzzles on the chess board better than her opponent.</description><pubDate>Sun, 23 Dec 2007 20:56:44 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>Chess Corner - Gary Kasporov</title><link>http://www.chesscorner.com/worldchamps/kasparov/kasparov.htm</link> <description>Garry Kimovich Kasparov was born Gary Weinstein in Baku, Azerbaijan, USSR in 1963.
