   Unfortunately, I haven't seen a website for the Russia-China match,
   but [1]Chess Today reports that after the first two rounds the score
   is 10-10. If anyone does know the website (assuming there is one),
   please post it in the comments.
   Also, the [2]15th North American FIDE Invitational starts tomorrow
   (Saturday) in Chicago, and it's a remarkably top-heavy affair - 5 of
   the 10 participants are IMs. The players are:
   IM Ben Finegold (USA)
   IM Kirill Kuderinov (KAZ)
   IM Emory Tate (USA)
   IM Angelo Young (PHI)
   IM-elect (FM) Mehmed Pasalic (GER)
   FM Florin Felecan (USA) - holds 1 IM norm
   FM Aleksander Stamnov (MKD)
   Oliver Koo (USA)
   Steve Tennant (USA)
   Chris Baumgartner (USA)
   The games will be available live on the [3]MonRoi website.
