Ivie Urieto acknowledged my contributions to her Chess Journey on her website . Here is the text ( with the misspellings ) :
Rich:
Rish from RCTOus has been pivotal in my chess journey. He gifted me a premium ichess package, adapting my courses when Chessable took over. In a remarkable gesture, he named a Nebraska tournament after me for community support in 2023. His support and dedication have left an indelible mark on my path.
After 12 years of putting more than $30,000 USD into Chess in Omaha none of my Chess Events are never listed on the Omaha or Nebraska websites , I appreciate the Afrikan Princess future Chess Master giving me due credit !

It is to be used online by less than 20 users .
My 1st computer program was in BASIC on punch cards at IIT in Chicago IL USA summer of 1975 .

Thank you to Alier for dedication to Chess .

My Health Scare
I was working a full time job and a part time for 6 years and running Chess Events .
I thought the occasional numbness and tingling in my hands was because of overuse .
I discovered on the internet it was a mild form of Neuropathy .
I immediately had to cut lots of calroes and sugar from my diet .
I started taking 4 items daily :
Beet Powder
Garlic
Magnesium
Tumeric
Several weeks later no more numbness and tingling .
I had no idea how much calories and sugar I was intaking 'on the run' between jobs etc .
Way too many Lattes , Sweet Teas , Sode Pops , Snacks .
I am 62 now and I must make these dietary changes permanent.
