Full Title: UMBC Chess Team Seeks Third Straight Victory in “Final Four of College Chess”Contact: Anthony Lane, UMBC 410-455-5793 alane@umbc.edu The University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC) chess team will attempt to reassert its dominance in the collegiate chess world with a victory this weekend in the 2011 President’s Cup, known as the “Final Four of College Chess.” The competition, to be held April 2-3 in Herndon, Va., will match the intensity of this weekend’s men’s and women’s NCAA Division I Final Four basketball championships as the UMBC Retrievers seek a third straight victory against their arch-rivals from the University of Texas at Dallas. Two other strong teams from Texas will also compete. “These teams are more closely matched than they have ever been before,” said UMBC Chess Director Alan Sherman. Battling weather-induced travel delays and illness, UMBC’s team placed second in December at the Pan-American Intercollegiate Team Chess Championship, losing narrowly to UT Dallas. The President’s Cup amounts to a rematch as it brings together the top four U.S. teams from that tournament: UMBC, UT Dallas, Texas Tech University and the University of Texas at Brownsville/Texas Southmost College. UMBC’s team will be led by International Grandmaster Sergey “The Stealth” Erenburg. Grandmaster Leonid “Chief” Erenburg will play the second board, Grandmaster Giorgi Margvelashvili will play third and International Master Sasha “Plaplan” Kaplan will play fourth. One bright spot from the December championship was the performance by UMBC’s Sabina “Sunshine” Foisor, who won all her matches — including a victory against Alejandro Ramirez, a Grandmaster and the top player at UT Dallas — as she led UMBC’s B-team to a fifth-place finish. Foisor, a Woman Grandmaster, is first alternate at on the Final Four team, with Ricky Selzler serving as second alternate. Supporting the UMBC team are Grandmaster Sam Palatnik, associate director, and Coach Igor Epshteyn. UMBC has captured first place six times in the Final Four’s ten-year history, with UT Dallas prevailing the other four years. This year offers a dramatic rematch between UMBC and UTD, and a “Cinderella” opportunity for Texas Tech or Brownsville to claim their first national title. The President's Cup is a national event sanctioned by the U.S. Chess Federation and hosted this year by Booz Allen Hamilton. The competition is open to the public and will take place in rooms 2237 and 2238 at Booz Allen Hamilton’s “One Dulles” building, 13200 Woodland Park Road in Herndon, Va. Round one and two begin at 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. on April 2. The final round begins at 9 a.m. on April 3. You can follow the chess games move by move this weekend at www.monroi.com.

The Healing Arts

The Restoring Power of Imagination

Telling without Talking: Breaking the Silence of Domestic Violence
Art breaks the silence of domestic violence.
Published on September 26, 2008


Speaking the truth about domestic violence is a step toward healing for all survivors. But when talking about violence brings shame, ambivalence, and fear, art therapy gives survivors not only a voice, but also is a way to raise consciousness about the profound effects of battering and all forms of abuse between partners.

While I have no explanation for the psychology behind the current financial crisis, as a therapist I am certain of one psychological effect of an economic turndown -- an increase in domestic violence. In this time of economic uncertainty, job loss, home foreclosures, and increased costs of living, pressures mount in families and frayed tempers inevitably will give way to an increase in battering and abuse. According to the National Domestic Violence Hotline, domestic violence is a pattern of behavior in any relationship that is used to gain or maintain power and control over an intimate partner. Physical, sexual, emotional, economic or psychological actions or threats of actions that influence another person may all be part of the dynamics, including any behaviors that frighten, intimidate, terrorize, manipulate, hurt, humiliate, blame, injure or wound another individual.

While domestic violence can happen to anyone of any race, age, sexual orientation, religion, socioeconomic status, or gender, for the past 25 years I have worked with adult women and child survivors and mostly those who have found refuge in shelters and safe houses. I suspect that with the continuing economic rollercoaster, we will see a rise in not only reports of domestic violence, but also a strain on these community-based programs that help women and children leave abusive relationships.

Although personal safety and a violence-free life are the first and foremost issues for anyone who is the victim of domestic violence, the long term healing process involves recovery from cumulative trauma, often posttraumatic stress reactions, and almost always personal shame and loss of self. Art therapy, which formally began as a field and treatment shortly after World War II, continues to be widely adopted to help battered women and children deal with their physical and emotional scars. Art as a healing force does not come easy for those whose lives have been controlled, are accustomed to betrayal and punishment, and have learned self-hatred. But inevitably when it does, creativity and imagination restore a sense of possibility, identity, and reconnection with parts of the self that were silenced in order to survive the violence. While survivors often feel shame in talking about abuse, talking about their artworks is an experience of finally coming home.

The tradition of art as a voice for domestic violence survivors has spawned a number of well-known programs, including the Clothesline Project, a project to address violence against women. In 1990, visual artist Rachel Carey-Harper, inspired by the AIDS quilt, presented the concept of using shirts hanging on a clothesline as a way to raise consciousness. Since doing the laundry was always considered women's work and women often exchanged information over backyard fences while hanging their clothes out to dry, the concept of the clothesline became the vehicle. Each year thousands of women now tell their stories of survival—and commemorate victims who died from domestic violence—by using words and/or artwork to decorate a t-shirt to be exhibited on a clothesline. And programs such as A Window Between Worlds in Venice, CA, serve as models for how art helps both women and children develop a sense of hope, possibility, and safety.

In her seminal volume, Trauma and Recovery, Judith Herman echoes the very reason that violence must be transformed in some way in order for recovery to begin: “Certain violations are too terrible to utter out loud: this is the meaning of the word unspeakable …Atrocities, however, refuse to be buried.” Domestic violence is one of those atrocities that continues to plague lives and for its survivors, is often too horrific to verbalize. Unfortunately, it may increase and intensify in these weeks and months if the expected financial crises continue. And while art is not the panacea for abuse, it is certainly a way through it and one that not only transforms the atrocities of violence, but also sends a powerful message that ultimately breaks the silence. 

If you need help, please contact National Domestic Violence Hotline at http://www.ndvh.org/ or phone 1-800-799-SAFE (7233). October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month.
