  Discovered attack - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The discovered check is a special case of this, where the unmasked attack is a check (conceivably, the piece moving away can also give check; in that case a double check results).
Discovered attacks in general, and double checks in particular, can be extremely powerful, as the piece moved can make a threat independently of the piece it reveals.
Discovered attacks don't have to gain material to be effective; sometimes the tactic is used merely to gain a tempo.

 Check (board game) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Discovered check - A discovered check is similar to any other type of discovered attack except that it is a discovered attack on the opposing king.
In a discovered check, a piece moves out of the line of attack by another piece so that this other piece (which can be a queen, rook, or bishop) is then checking the opponent's king.
A discovered check could be a tactic in itself because the piece that moved could attack or otherwise create a threat to another piece on the checked king's side.

 RedOrbit - Health - 'Heart Attack Gene' Discovered at Cleveland Clinic Exists in 1-2% of U.S. Heart Attack, Coronary ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
Cleveland Clinic researchers discovered this gene by methodically studying the genetic makeup of 21 members of an Iowa family plagued for generations by clogged arteries and heart attacks.
When researchers initially discovered an MEF2A deletion mutation in the Iowa family, they acknowledged it was unlikely that the exact genetic mutation would be found in other people.
Researchers concluded the gene carriers with loss-of-function mutations appear to be associated with less severe coronary artery disease and did not develop heart attack, as did the Iowa family with a more severe mutation.

 DVD Verdict Review - Last Exile: Discovered Attack (Volume 3)
At the behest of the dying pilot, Claus and Lavi agree to take up the assignment and transport Alvis to the air-battleship Silvana, a decision that places them in the path of the Guild and into the most dangerous mission of their young lives.
Last Exile: Discovered Attack, the third volume of the popular anime series Last Exile, picks up where the previous volume left off, with Claus, Lavie, and Alvis on board the Silvana, the renegade battleship commanded by the mysterious Captain Alex Rowe.

 Heart attack gene discovered Chicago Sun-Times - Find Articles
Scientists have identified the first gene believed to guarantee heart attacks in an Iowa family plagued with an unrelenting legacy of heart disease.
The gene, called MEF2A, was discovered by painstakingly analyzing the genetic makeup of 21 members of the family, which has a history of heart disease going back many generations.
Previous research suggests that the gene, when it is functioning as it should, controls a cascade of events that ensures the health of the coronary arteries' inner lining.
