Daily Chess Puzzle for June 17, 2011

Hey Guys,

It's Father's Day this Sunday. (Question to self: Is Father's Day a world-wide holiday? If not, it should be.)  And you haven't gotten anything for your Dad yet.  Not to worry.  There's no better gift than a free subscription to Daily Chess Puzzles.  He'll love it, and you will become his favorite son or daughter. 

So forward your Daily Chess Puzzle email to your Dad (or any father you know), and wish him a happy Father's Day.  And then tell him you got this one without hints. ;-)

Daily Chess Puzzle for June 13, 2011

Hey Chess Masters,

I've added a link in the menus (right side and footer) to Tomorrow's Puzzle.  So now you can preview the puzzle that will be sent out the next day.  That way if you find any mistakes, you can let me know and I will correct it before I send out to everyone via email.  You'll notice, though, that you cannot score the "Tomorrow's Puzzle", but if you let me know of mistake, I will give you an extra 5 points for the week.
