More tourney announcements

After the posts in German language in the past days, let us hopefully return to the "business as usual". This time we have some tourney announcements, starting with one for a problemist who died in 2009 in a terrorist attack or school shooting, depending on what information you believe. The following announcements were sent by Vidadi Zamanov who asks to reprint them, a wish we fulfill here. Speaking of great Azerbaijanian authors, the composer Ilham Aliev, unrelated to the politician, also has recently written a book "Şahmat yaradıcılığım" which from what we understand can be ordered at bestechi@mail.ru
