  Chess Openings - Chess opening moves for the Beginner - Chess opening classification
Opening theory began being studied more scientifically from the 1840s on, and many opening variations were discovered and named in this period and later.
The name given to an opening is not always that of the first player to adopt it; often an opening is named for the player who was the first to popularize it or to publish analysis of it.
This refers to an opening intended to avoid a particular line otherwise available to one's opponent, for example the Anti-Marshall (against the Marshall (Counter) Attack in the Ruy Lopez) and the Anti-Meran Gambit (against the Meran Variation of the Semi-Slav Defense).

  Amar Opening Information
The Amar Opening or Paris Opening is a chess opening defined by the move 1.Nh3 in algebraic notation.
Like the Durkin Opening, White develops a knight to a rim square without having much reason to do so, and such a development is quite awkward.
Since 1.Nh3 is considered an irregular opening, it is classified under the A00 code in the Encyclopaedia of Chess Openings.

 durkin attack | English | Dictionary & Translation by Babylon
The Durkin Opening, also known as the Sodium Attack, is a very rarely played chess opening beginning with the move (in algebraic chess notation):1.This awkward development of the queen's knight does little to utilize White's advantage of the first move.
If this is White's plan it is probably stronger to play c4 on the first move (the English Opening).
As such, this opening is probably most valuable as a way to avoid opening preparation.

 KTLA The CW | Where Los Angeles Lives | The real point? City Hall hiring, not me
What really bothered me was that if Durkin hadn't pointed and made accusations, I wouldn't have been writing an extra column for Tuesday, and I'd have made it out to the little league field where I'm helping my neighbor, Marty, coach a team our kids play on.
So Durkin did, giving the jury a history of Chicago politics, saying that while the feds were trying to put Richard M. Daley on trial, they should have put his father, Richard J. Daley on trial.
That's when I bolted out of there, in case Durkin really wanted to fight, but I doubt it, since if either of us were tapped in the belly by a 4-year-old, we'd fall on the ground, convulsing in pain.

Hale, 32, an outspoken white supremacist, is charged in the five-count indictment with two counts of solicitation to commit murder and three counts of obstruction of justice.
Weisman said Hale repeatedly led both Evola and Fox to believe that he hoped they would kill Lefkow, even though as a trained law school graduate himself he was careful not to be caught on tape saying so specifically with the possibility the conversation might be taped.
Durkin tried to prepare the jury for what it was about to hear by saying he was surrounded by racial prejudice while growing up in an all-white community on Chicago's South Side.

 Prosecutors: Chicago Officials Covered Up Patronage - News
Sorich, 42, and three other former city officials are charged in an eight-count indictment with faking job interview scores and hiding lists of patronage employees and their sponsors in an effort to cover up political patronage in city hiring in defiance of a court order.
Collins, who was also the lead prosecutor in the recent racketeering and fraud trial of former Illinois Gov. George Ryan, told jurors in his opening statement that Sorich and his co-defendants schemed "by dark of night" to conceal the continued use of the patronage system.
Durkin claimed that the trial represented an attempt by "the federal government to impose its will on Chicago." He also led jurors through the history of patronage over the last 50 years and capped it with the remark that "Richard J. Daley is on trial here."

 Matthew Hale Trial Opens in Chicago   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Defense attorney Thomas Durkin told the jury that FBI tapes reveal that mole Tony Evola, not Matthew Hale, brought up the possible killing of Judge Lefkow.
Durkin also said the case shows "how dangerous it is when the government infiltrates an organization and goes after people for what it thinks they might have done."
Weisman closed by cautioning the jury they had to be "ready to hear nasty racial slurs uttered by Hale." Obviously the Jewish strategy is to 'dirty up' Hale in hopes that the Mestizo, fls, and Jews hearing the case won't care about there being no real evidence of guilt.
