11.11.13 While we're waiting for Game 3 in the World Chess Championship Match, you may like to browse these WCC-related articles from news outlets across the globe courtesy of www.ChessCafe.com. By the time you finish perusing this content, we should be just about ready for Tuesday's game.

One of the nice things about getting up so early for the 4:30 a.m. start of the games is having time to make a little something special for breakfast--in this case New England popovers with black raspberry jam and mint tea.
