A few weeks ago I posted up a photo series on Death row meals. A comment came in about the morbidness of the subject and why anyone would think about their last dinner on earth, their last moment with food. The comment brought to mind my family's obsession with food and our endless discussions about our last meal, our 'hangman's dinner'. It's a common theme in our house, food that is, not death, and I began thinking about mine. I haven't thought about it in a long time. My favourite dinner on earth. Big question. Easy answer. What is the most comforting, delicious, mouthwatering stew in existence? Bargeman's stew of course.
Passed down from my grandmother this recipe is a French classic – I believe it's Norman but I'm open to correction – and is really simple to make – its basically meat cooked in onions over a long period of time with some anchovies, red wine and a vinaigrette thrown in for good measure. It's served best with a simple salad or a lovely buttery mash. Or both. If you're vegetarian there's no point. This is not for you. This is strictly a carnivorous dish.
So here goes. Let me know what you think.
1kg round steak cut into little steaks each weighing about 100g
500g onions peeled and sliced very thinly
1 generous glass wine (optional)
1 generous tablespoon flour
30g butter
salt and freshly ground pepper
4 tablespoons chopped parsley
60ml vinaigrette (Dijon mustard, vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper)
6 anchovy fillets chopped
Preheat the oven to 140C°
Place the onions and steak in layers in an ovenproof casserole dish finishing with a layer of onions. Season as you go with salt and pepper. Put the flour into a bowl with the butter and work the two together with your fingers. Divide the mixture into small balls and place them on top, and around the sides, of the onion and beef (this is to thicken the sauce during cooking).
Pour in the wine, if using. Cover the casserole dish with foil before placing on the lid and allow to cook in the oven for about 3½ hours, checking every hour or so to make sure the meat is not sticking to the bottom of the dish. Remove from oven, stir in the chopped anchovy fillets and vinaigrette and return to the oven to cook for a further 30 minutes.
You're going to love this. I promise. Try it. Tell me all about it.

Use the calendar to select your arrival. Days marked in red are unavailable.
We had a pleasant 5-night stay at Wailea Grand Champions. The property description (2 BR, 2 BA with ocean view, and overlooking a golf course) was accurate. The unit was quite clean, well-maintained and comfortable, with up-to-date appliances in the kitchen; no problems at all in that regard. We especially appreciated that everything was well-marked (e.g., where the silverware and plates were, which lights corresponded to which switches, etc.). The people at the property management company with which we dealt (Maui Condo and Car) were very friendly, accommodating, responsive and helpful. (We had a minor issue at check-in, since the access code to the unit was not on the materials the management company sent us, the company is not on-site, and we arrived after hours, so it took a few phone calls to reach a live person at the company to give us the access code. But, it all worked out fine in the end.) We would definitely recommend this property, though with the following qualification: if you are sensitive to noise, be aware that (1) the Grand Champions maintenance people start mowing the golf course at 6:00 a.m. like clockwork every single day (at least every day we were there), and other property maintenance activities such as pruning the shrubs begin at about the same time, so it gets pretty loud pretty early (though it lasts only 15-30 minutes); and (2) this particular unit is on the lower level and there is a unit directly above, and our upstairs neighbors seemed particularly heavy-footed, so we heard a fair amount of tromping around at various times of the day, including late night and early morning. The noise factor is why I rated this as a 4-star rather than 5-star experience. Overall, we were pleased, and thought we got good value for what we spent.
Grand Champions was the perfect place to stay while on vacation on Maui. The property was more than my husband and I expected. The description of the property was accurate; regarding the location, layout, amenities, etc. We needed extra ice trays and the manager provided great customer service immediately. We enjoyed the beautiful view of the ocean and golf course from our lanay. During our stay we travelled to Makena Beach, Fleming Beach, Wailea Beach, watched the sunrise atop Haleakala, made a visit to the Lavender farm, joined the Pacific Whale Foundation cruise to find Humpback Whales, feasted at Palm 5, Mama's Fish House and Beach Bums. At the pool we enjoyed the water, hot tub and meeting other vacationers and owners enjoying their stay. We made most of our own meals at the condo in the well equipped kitchen after shopping at the grocery stores. The two weeks we stayed at Maui Condo were fantastic and we would definitely recommend the property to friends or relatives.
Beautful 2 bedroom condo on the golf course with ocean view. Fully stocked with everything we needed and owners marked where things were for easy finding. Master bedroom has a huge double shower head shower. Beds were very comfortable as was the couch and furniture on the lanai. Complex has 2 nice pools, both near by. Easy walking down to the Shops and walking trail along the ocean. Air conditioner was very quiet in the condo. Washer and dryer are out on the lanai in a closet and quiet. Complex is away from the roads and very quiet. Only noise is the golf course mowers that start early in the morning around 4:30am. But they weren't too loud, (never woke my husband up) and they didn't mow that early every morning. Lovely sunset views.
We were very happy with our rental. The condo was supplied with everything we needed, and it was clean and very comfortable.
Thank you we had family visiting from Maryland our overall stay was perfect. Location was great about 5 minutes from the beach, restaurants, and shopping. It also was centrally located to other activities which we also did (Hana, Haleakala, Ulalena show in Lahaina I would highly recommend seeing this). The vacation rental management staff was very helpful. I had a few questions called them and they were able to help me right away.
This was our 1st stay in a condo in Wailea, after many, many hotel stays. I must say, this was the perfect place for us, clean, quiet, very well equipped, spacious, wonderful kitchen, incredible lanai with view, wonderful pools and BBQ's, and we truly enjoyed our experience and will be back! As a RN, I am picky about clean, and it was exceptional in this area! Thank you for the opportunity to share your home!
We chose this condo due to its proximity to the hotel where my conference was held. I was glad we chose this place instead of hotel. Location is perfect,that it's walking distance to the beach, grocery store(Island gourmet store in Wilea mall is great!), shopping mall and restaurants. Although i have to admit, we mostly drove to these places due to hot weather. We had an amazing view of ocean ahead of open golf course. We loved the fact that we were able to cook at home. The kitchen had everything you need for meal preparation, even pineapple core cutters. The condo provided beach chairs, boogie board, beech towels, etc.. AC was excellent, but also having ceiling fans in each room was great especially at nights.Showers worked well in both bathrooms, all the amenities worked with no problem. The surrounding area was beautiful with lots of tropical plants and flowers. We did not have any insect problems such as ants in the condo. We tried to keep food items away from open area after reading other reviews about it.Overall, we were extremely happy with the stay. I would definitely recommend this place for any family of 3-4.
We used it for Business, cause we were working at another hotel and just ate, slept & washed!
Rental was clean and fully furnished; experience was very satisfying. I would consider renting this unit again.
The Grand Champions 75 was wonderful! We've stayed at many condos on Maui and this is fantastic. Clean, organized and a wonderful location.
Very nice condo. Clean and ready for us. The view from the balcony was beautiful. Sunsets right from the porch. Only negative is you are right by a hole and the lawn is cut around it every morning between 6 and 6:15AM. We liked sleeping with the windows open, so I was up early regardless.
Quiet; well stocked kitchen; nice view from lanai; fairy close to Kihei and also to wailea beachesOnly thing that could've been better is having a high chair for our baby. Perhaps we could've arranged it ahead of time but we managed without.
We rented three units in the complex and this was by far the nicest and best equipped. My husband is a chef and appreciated the sharp knives. It is obvious that the owners paid attention to detail. We would definitely re-rent this unit again when we return.
I love the condo. I want to stay there again!
I brought my family with older kids and really enjoyed everything about this condo. It was spacious, clean, well equipped and met all of our needs. It is in a prime location situated near the fine Wailea Tennis Resort that we used daily. We would come back here in a heartbeat!
The property was just as described and worked perfectly for our family.
The condo was very clean and overlooking a golf course.
The condo was very awesome, very clean. Very quiet, safe area.
Well maintained condo in a nice complex, close to both pools. Easy walking distance to shops and restaurants.
The condo was very clean, comfortable, equipped with all that one would need. The appliances were like new, furniture was comfortable,very adequate supply of bedding and linens. Evening sunsets were so pleasant on the lanai.
Rental was clean and nice.
This condo has great A/C and really nice kitchen ware and furnishings. Everything seemed new including the carpet and couches. We loved the patio that overlooks the golf course and has views of the ocean. The location of Grand Champions really made things convenient and easy to get to and from the beach. The property management company (Maui Condo and Car) was wonderful. We had to change our flight due to Hurricane Anna and they were incredibly accommodating and were able to house us in another unit for the balance of our stay. I have no complaints whatsoever. I would definitely stay here again.

Federal bankruptcy Judge Steven Rhodes said on Tuesday that Detroit can possibly cut pensions for city workers as part of its bankruptcy proceedings, despite a Michigan constitutional provision that prevents such actions.
"Pension benefits are a contractual right and are not entitled to any heightened protection in a municipal bankruptcy," Rhodes said in a 140-page ruling.
"Pension rights are contract rights under the Michigan constitution," Rhodes said as he declared Detroit insolvent and eligible for bankruptcy. "It has long been understood that bankruptcy law entails the impairment of contracts."
Detroit's bankruptcy case is the latest in a series of high-profile power conflicts between the federal government and states with constitutional roots.
This time, the attorneys for the government workers facing the possible cuts say Rhodes' decision has national implications.
Bruce Babiarz, a spokesman for the Police and Fire Pension System, said in the New York Times on Tuesday that the Michigan Constitution protected the workers' pensions, which should be considered separately from other contracts.
"This is one of the strongest protected pension obligations in the country here in Michigan," Babiarz said. "If this ruling is upheld, this is the canary in a coal mine for protected pension benefits across the country. They're gone."
And there were indications last month that Detroit's employee pension systems were prepared to appeal the case as far as the U.S. Supreme Court.
The Detroit News said the pension systems retained lawyers with federal bankruptcy and Supreme Court experience, in case an appeal was needed. And within hours of Tuesday's decision, an appeal was made to U.S. district court on behalf of the city's unions.
Detroit had filed for Chapter 9 bankruptcy protection in July, claiming more than $18 billion in debts (including more than $8 billion in pension and retiree health-care liabilities).
The state's governor and a city manager approved the move, but a state court then said the bankruptcy filing violated the Michigan state constitution.
The Detroit case set up a courtroom battle between different parts of the Constitution.
The Supremacy Clause in Article VI of the Constitution states that "This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in pursuance thereof; and all treaties made, or which shall be made, under the authority of the United States, shall be the supreme law of the land; and the judges in every state shall be bound thereby, anything in the constitution or laws of any state to the contrary notwithstanding."
However, the 10th Amendment says, "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."
The attorneys for pension funds, unions and other creditors wanted state courts in Michigan take up the legality of the bankruptcy filing. Instead, the fight will happen in the federal court system.
In an opinion piece for Thomson Reuters in July, Alison Frankel laid out the basic long-term constitutional issue.
"As I've written any number of times … no federal bankruptcy court has ruled whether municipalities may cut pension benefits through a Chapter 9 plan. The issue pits the Supremacy Clause and the Bankruptcy Code against the Contract Clause and the 10th Amendment, which reserves to states the right to manage their own affairs," she said.
For now, Rhodes wants to see the city's final reorganization plan before he rules that the entire plan is fair and equitable. So there is no guarantee that pension cuts will be in the final deal.

Hard 10 years for butcher start ups
Traditional independent butchers and other retailers that started up business in the UK over the last 10 years are in steep decline, having peaked in 2003 according to a survey.
The research, conducted by ICC Credit, a UK credit reference agency, shows the number of butchers, grocers, fishmongers and off-licences have grown steadily since 1996, with 326 incorporations, to a total of 1,575 companies in 2003. However, by 2004, this figure had fallen to 959.
Graham Bidston, chief executive of the National Federation of Meat and Food Traders (NFMFT), said the figures may not have the full picture: "There is an interesting point in the text. They say that 2003 was a peak year for 'limited company incorporations'.
"Most small shops are family owned or are sole proprietors but, in recent years, accountants have been advising them to become limited companies either because of the tax advantages or the protection that being "limited" can bring. So it could be that these were not necessarily new businesses but rather established ones changing their structure." He said there were around 8,000 independent retail butchers in the UK and the rate of decline had bottomed out in the last few years with some new businesses starting up.
In the ICC Credit report, Helen Kings, marketing manager for ICC Credit, said smaller independent retailers were struggling with 3.5% of butchers in liquidation or administration. years ago and so in that context the high-street retailers would appear to be doing well."

Four years ago, my wife decided to get her amalgam fillings removed while we were on holidays in Costa Rica. The amalgam fillings had turned grey and black, so she had them changed for white fillings.
I didn't realize it at the time, but her initiative became for me, the beginning of a new awareness regarding the dangers of amalgam fillings, the challenge of removing these fillings and reclaiming my own health.
I have had a mouth full of silver amalgam fillings for over 40 years. I went for a consultation with Dr. France Chevalier, an Ottawa dentist, in September, 2011 and I had the shock of my life.
I had decided to get my amalgam fillings removed because they contain about 50% mercury, one of the most dangerous and obnoxious elements on the planet, and my dentist in Cornwall, Ontario refused to remove them. He told me amalgam fillings were perfectly safe, that the mercury was inert in my mouth and there was no good reason to remove them.
So, my consultation with Dr. Chevalier in September, 2011 was an event that challenged almost everything about dental health that I had been taught since the early 1960's.
During that appointment here is the information that jolted me:
- 12 amalgam fillings in my mouth had to be removed, 2 each month using the strict protocols(i.e. rubber dam, specialized vacuum, oxygen)
- a front tooth which had a root canal and a crown two years prior had to be extracted due to the growth of cysts
- an upper molar, and previously treated root canal had to be removed also for the growth of cysts
The whole issue of root canals, and the many risks involved, is a subject for another article. What you should remember is that a tooth which has had a root canal done, is in essence a 'dead tooth.' Our bodies are designed to reject dead tissue, so once the blood supply has been cut off to the tooth, there is a strong possibility that anaerobic organisms such as parasites and bacteria will find a home in that space. Then you will have more problems.
I agreed to go ahead with this work, and Dr. Chevalier performed the extractions in December, 2011. Since I needed cosmetic dentistry as a result of the extractions, I incorporated the follow-up treatments while vacationing in Costa Rica. You can read here about dental treatments I had with Dr. Enrique Parra in Liberia, Costa Rica.
Why Do We Use Amalgam Fillings?
What appears to be the case is that the millions of people, who have amalgam fillings around the world, are blind.
They are blind to the fact that there is a strong causal relationship between mercury poisoning and how the body functions. For over 100 years amalgam fillings have been is existence, but during that time organizations like the Canadian and American Dental Associations have refuted any attempts to show that dental amalgams (50% mercury) are a serious health hazard. There is so much money at stake and the possibility of lawsuits for damages would shatter the economy.
Silver amalgams are the cheapest way to fill a tooth, so the profit argument is always the bottom line in business. The American Dental Association, for example, has such a stranglehold on the dentists across America, that if any one of them speaks out against amalgam fillings, that dentist will be censured and may have his license revoked. Meanwhile, people are getting sicker and sicker from the effects of the amalgam but bureaucrats will cry for 'proof.' But how can there be proof if no one authorizes research to be done to determine the effects of mercury on the body?
Think about the 60's when the tobacco industries claimed that 'smoking doesn't cause cancer.' The government supported that claim for a long time. But then the dam collapsed, and people realized how dangerous smoking was to overall health. Then the class action lawsuits started. It will be the same for the dental establishment once enough people become aware. The lies, deceits and mistruths will fall like a house of cards.
In Canada, you can walk in and out of a dental office with your mouth loaded with amalgam fillings. They are your fillings.
If the dentist removes just one of those fillings, and shows you the removed filling on a tray, you can say goodbye to it forever. Why? Because the government forbids mercury in any form to be removed from a dental office. That mercury must be stored in a hazardous waste container, and must be removed from the office using strict protocols.
Does that make any sense to you?
Symptoms of Mercury Poisoning
About four years ago while traveling in Central America, I began to lose weight and while in Panama, I was diagnosed with gastritis and parasites. I returned to Canada and struggled with the parasites, using various modalities in an attempt to eradicate them such as: wormwood, black walnut, cloves, vibrational healing, and many dietary changes.
The parasites are still present in my body, and are noticeable from time to time in my stool. As well, when the parasites are active I suffer from low energy and stomach disorder.
Mercury in amalgam fillings forms an attraction to parasites in the body, and they can spread very quickly to the body's organs. They make digestion difficult and generally make one lethargic. In my case, I believe they were also responsible for my sinus problems which have persisted for the last 10 years. Even without a cold, my sinuses would become blocked quite frequently, and as I found out only recently, this is one of the symptoms of mercury toxicity.
To cope with the sinus problems, I have found that drinking a glass of water with 3 drops of wild oil of oregano works wonders. This treatment can be taken from 1-3 times per day.
In Dr. Mark Breiner's book, Whole Body Dentistry, there are numerous examples of the mercury related illnesses in the doctor's patients. All of the autoimmune diseases such as MS, Crohns, Parkinson's and Alzheimer's begin with brain dysfunction, and mercury can be the culprit.
Remember, western medicine does not take mercury poisoning seriously, and there is no money for the pharmaceutical companies in ridding the population of mercury poisoning. However, there is money attached to the treatment of all of the diseases that I just mentioned. Are you beginning to see the picture?
No research, no proof. No proof, then there can be no problem. That has been the operating model for the past 100 years.
Dentists who have sounded alarm bells regarding mercury toxicity have been quickly silenced by the establishment. Their licenses have been revoked so they are reluctant to speak out. Even many of the 'mercury free' dentists won't talk much about amalgam fillings, but in their clinics they refuse to use them.
My Amalgam Fillings
I have 4 amalgam fillings left to be removed, having had 2 removed each month from September to December, 2011. After each appointment with Dr. Chevalier, I felt unwell for several days and even several weeks after each appointment. Dr. Chevalier explained to me that this reaction is normal. In spite of best practices, 100% of the mercury vapour cannot be eliminated, and the body absorbs some of it. This causes the 'mercury spiral' which brings on the symptoms I have been talking about. Fatigue happens frequently after the fillings have been removed. It takes time and patience to get over it.
I will be getting 2 more fillings changed in April, 2012 and the last two in May, 2012. I am looking forward to getting all of the mercury removed from my body. It will be the first time since the 1950's that I will have no mercury in my body!
Getting the amalgam fillings removed is the first step to restoring my health.
However, as mentioned the mercury has been in my body for the past 50 years, and the removal of the amalgam fillings is only the first step.
The remaining steps will involve "chelation"- which is the removal of the residual mercury from my body. For this step I will require a health professional whom I can trust, since chelation can be a risky procedure.
Each person has a different sensitivity level and the chelation must draw out the toxic metals at an appropriate rate, in order that a 'backlash' does not occur. In other words, we want to withdraw the mercury but at a rate that does not make the body mercury toxic- which would be a step backwards!
For this purpose I will be using the services of a naturopath doctor who is familiar with chelation therapy.
In conclusion, you can expect further articles on dental health from this website, since it is my opinion that the amalgam filling issue is not going away, and will only spike as the population ages, and the people who got amalgam fillings in the 50's, 60's, 70's and 80's will experience a decline in health as they age.
Right now it appears that the baby boomers, those born between 1945 and 1960, are the demographic most at risk. These are the people who are also suffering from the autoimmune diseases that I previously mentioned.
If you have comments, questions, or experiences you would like to share, please email me with your concerns.
The amalgam filling cover-up will only be exposed when a 'tipping point' is reached; that is, when people start talking about their experiences, and refuse to accept poor health as a natural function of 'aging.'
It doesn't have to be that way.

New stretch target
Our Stretch Target £1200!
What will we use the extra money for?
With another £600, we can put forward a candidate to run, meaning that the Green Party will have candidates in both St Helens North and St Helens South and Whiston! With this money, we will also be able to produce more leaflets, posters and even more marketing tools in order to let as many people as possible in St Helens know that there is an alternative.
St Helens needs YOU!
Isn't it time for change in St Helens?
Time for a fresh start?
A new beginning?
And time we really tackled the same old problems and the same old excuses?
We need a borough with an exciting future as well as a proud past.
A place where people and communities really do come first – not business-as-usual parties with their business-as-usual priorities.
At this May's General Election, we want to give St Helens voters an alternative. Real choice. A Green choice.
But standing for Parliament costs money: £500 per constituency.
The Green Party doesn't have rich financial backers, so to stand up for St Helens we need your support.
We know that many people are struggling to get by and that every penny counts, so we're grateful for any donation – however small or large – to help us to help you.
The Green Party can make a difference – but only with your support. Can you help us?

"AUSTIN, TEXAS — Electric cars are coming! Electric cars are coming!
The hype is virtually inescapable. Nissan has already received more than 27,000 reservations around the world for the Leaf, its all-electric car, which is to start arriving in the United States and Japan in December and several European markets soon thereafter. General Motors will make 10,000 Volt cars, its plug-in hybrid, next year; they will soon hit the streets of U.S. cities like Austin, Texas. Tesla, the California-based maker of a plug-in sports car called the Roadster, just opened its first Asian showroom, in Tokyo.
But for ordinary people willing to swallow the high price tag (nearly $33,000 for the Leaf in the United States), plenty of questions about electric cars remain. Where can the cars be charged? What happens if they need to be fixed? How long will a charge last? "

Can Your CRM Evolve as Fast as Your Customers? (Part 10b)
Also consider adding automated outbound notifications. This may also mean connecting existing on-premise ERP applications such as financials, purchasing and supply chain. This will further tighten integration and expand access to available customer and operations data.
Mobile is becoming the customers' preferred communications means for multiple channels. Mobile-enable CRM applications and external and internal Web sites to serve customers and workforces using these devices, ensuring that mobile applications are connected into the contact center for seamless transition from channel to channel.
Build in and integrate with CRM real-time social media tracking, analysis and reporting. Add to this collaboration (contact management, surveys and activity charts) and marketing tools such as e-mail, profiles and mobile applications. Turbocharge customer referral value by accounting for customers' influence with others via social media, and give this metric greater weight in assessing customers' total lifetime value.
Applying BI and predictive analytics to data in real time is important to knowledge discovery about the customer while supporting marketing, sales and customer service operations. Mining data provided by analytics, applying mathematical models to it, and building targeted marketing initiatives with it helps connect the business manager to the needs of their customer. The benefit for the marketer is to see response rates climb as a result of marketing initiatives and to help validate the ROI from the CRM system in the process.

Can Your CRM Evolve as Fast as Your Customers? (Part 10a)
The challenge to midsize businesses is clear: you need to adjust your CRM strategy to market, sell to and service customers on their terms, consistently, across all channels. But how? Every company will be different, but there is a set of critical points you must consider when evaluating a new approach to your CRM planning:
Examine the goals you are trying to reach. Understand what CRM is and the business functions this software and others that support it, including analytics, data integration and collaboration are intended to enable. See what specific objectives these tools can meet, how long they will take to get there and at what costs, and determine the returns.
Seek out and get buy-in from the very outset with all stakeholders: senior management, marketing, sales, customer service/contact center and IT. Find out their pain points with the firm's existing sales and customer care processes. Discover their thoughts and suggestions for solutions: what they want to see and avoid. Ask their opinions of and uncover any reservations they have about CRM and other related tools in order to deal head-on with any strongly held views they may have on this technology— traditional CRM has earned a bad reputation. The IT department can be an important ally during this process. They can help senior leadership to better understand the technology requirements on the infrastructure in order to deploy and maintain a CRM platform such as modularity and open-sourced software.
CRM is about knowing customers and meeting their specific needs to gain their patronage and loyalty, as well as new customer referrals.
CRM Software
Can Your CRM Evolve as Fast as Your Customers? (Part 9b)
It is treating all customers well and exceptional customers exceptionally well, with a level of service that ensures profitability. Midsize firms can leverage this smarter approach to CRM to combine the best attributes of a large enterprise and a small business. Today they can have at their fingertips the insights needed to provide the high-quality experiences that today's customers are demanding—and to do it profitably.
The smarter approach to CRM is a powerful customer engagement methodology for midsize businesses looking to build customer loyalty and gain market share, particularly in a slow economy. As a manager in a midsize business, take a close look at the goals you are trying to reach. Do you have actionable data to know and service your customer better? Have you considered a mobile strategy? Are your contact center agents able to collaborate seamlessly, and are your marketing programs automated based on real-time data? If these types of questions are top of mind, it may be time to reexamine your customer engagement strategy and see if a smarter approach to CRM would help you address these and other questions.

THIS PROJECT IS NO LONGER BEING WORKED ON Sven Co-op recent steam release got rid of most the weird additions and stitches maps together for far less loading screens making this project no longer necessary or worth it. Demo downloads will stay up for the research of other modders and the player models included. Thanks everyone. Unity is a Cooperation mod for Half-Life that aims to keep the campaign as vanilla as possible, While still being co-op. That means no monsters that weren't in the original game and no new weapons. Just good old Half-Life the way it was meant to be played but with your friends.

Re: Issue : Content.saveNew(InputStreams,String[],ContainingFolderID)2013-01-02T23:22:33ZThis is the accepted answer. This is the accepted answer.Hi VashReddy,
Could you please give the sequence of code calls / events and what the problem is exactly? I'm unclear how many Content Objects you've got here, and how many Streams.
When you pass multiple streams to saveNew(), that will generate multiple Content Elements within P8. That appears to be happening here as expected, from what I can tell in the screenshot. Is that the issue you were asking about? is the issue that you cannot retrieve the 2nd element?

Filmmaker freed this noon from house arrrest in Gstaad
Bern, Switzerland (GenevaLunch.com) – Roman Polanski, who has been under house arrest in Gstaad, canton Bern, since he posted bail in October 2009, following his arrest at Zurich Airport in September 2009, will not be extradited to the United States. Swiss Federal Justice Minister Eveline Widmer-Schlumpf made the announcement at a press conference in Bern Monday afternoon 12 July. The film director was convicted and sentenced in the US in the 1970s on charges of having raped a 13-year-old girl but he fled the country before serving his sentence. He had, however, already spent time in a psychiatric prison pending sentencing.
The decision centred around the question of whether or not Polanski had already served, in the US, the jail term to which he had been sentenced. If he has, an extradition request is not valid. The Justice Department Monday issued a statement noting that
on 3rd March 2010, the Federal Office of Justice (FOJ) asked the USA authorities to substantiate the extradition request by supplying the records of a hearing carried out on 26th January 2010 by the public prosecutor, Roger Gunson, who was in charge of the case in the seventies. The records should prove that, in a meeting held on 19th September 1977, the judge in charge at the time had expressly assured the representatives of the parties that the 42 days of detention spent by Roman Polanski in the psychiatric unit of a Californian prison represented the whole term of imprisonment he was condemned to. If this were the case, Roman Polanski would actually have already served his sentence and therefore both the proceedings on which the US extradition request is founded and the request itself would have no foundation.
The US Department of Justice turned down the request 13 May, citing a court secrecy ruling.
In these circumstances it is not possible to exclude with the necessary certainty that Roman Polanski has already served the sentence he was condemned to at the time and that the extradition request is undermined by a serious fault. Considering the persisting doubts concerning the presentation of the facts of the case, the request has to be rejected.
The Swiss government insists that "the issue was thoroughly examined." Widmer-Schlumpf says the Swiss government was never pressured by others, either the US or the French, in the case.
A second consideration behind the decision was what the justice ministry refers to as concerns over "international public order": treaties between two countries " are not to be interpreted only according to their wording, but also to their sense and purpose. They have to be fulfilled respecting the principle of good faith." Polanski had good reason to believe he could come to Switzerland without incurring legal problems, based on past US and Swiss behaviour, the justice minister notes.
In particular it is necessary to take into account the fact that it is generally known that, since he bought his house in Gstaad in 2006, Roman Polanski has been regularly staying in Switzerland. Nonetheless the US authorities did not file any formal extradition request for years. Moreover, although Roman Polanski was registered in the Swiss registry of wanted persons, he was never controlled by the Swiss authorities. These circumstances justified a confidence basis and Roman Polanski would not have decided to go to the film festival in Zürich in September 2009 if he had not trusted that the journey would not entail any legal disadvantages for him.

Hi again Jean,
I have found service records for Frederick John Neaves with info re: his birth details and parents and lots more info. that was the source of much of my confirmed details re his family connections. Ann Adelaide died in St. Vincents hospital Sydney so perhaps she had a long confinement there and was then buried at Rookwood?. I'm still not certain of Fredericks' exact whereabouts- it appears that his parents wanted him brought home to be buried- but i am still reading through details of his service record and attached papers. Will keep looking.

For the second time this year, 35-year old International Boxing Federation (IBF) Super Middleweight titlist Carl Froch (30-2, 22 KO) of Nottingham, England, played the part of human wrecking ball, laying waste to 32-year old Yusaf Mack (31-5-2, 17 KO) of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in front of a packed, rabid house at the Capital FM Arena in Nottingham on Saturday night. Froch makes the first defense of the title he wrested from then-undefeated Lucian Bute in five devastating rounds in May of this year. Mack came into the contest rated #5 by the IBF at Light Heavyweight and suffers the fifth knockout loss of his career.
Froch came into the bout just below the division limit at 167 ½, Mack on the limit at 168. The referee was Phil Edwards.
Seemingly still in the same gear he ended his blitzing of Bute with, Froch exploded out of the gate in the first round. A knockdown, perhaps aided with a tangle of feet, resulted off of a wide right hand and a looping left as Mack fell. Mack rose and was forced to cover as Froch came on. A right near the ropes brought a roar from the crowd, as did a wicked body shot before the bell. A steady second round closed with another crowd pleaser, Mack rocked by a right near the ropes.
He survived to hear the bell. He wouldn't be so lucky in the third. Appearing wobbled with every stiff power shot, Mack tried to jab and move to keep clear of Froch's hard lefts and overhand rights. In the final minute, a crushing right to the body bent Mack in half, his head left exposed for a left hook and right hand to finish the assault. Mack dropped to all fours, briefly stiffened his torso upwards, and then collapsed forward in pain. Referee Phil Edwards tolled the count of ten at 2:30 of round three.
The bout represented the first step off the gas for the fearlessly matched Froch in many years after a monster eight fight stretch that saw him face Jean Pascal, Jermain Taylor, Andre Dirrell, Mikkel Kessler, Arthur Abraham, Andre Ward, and Lucian Bute in succession. Froch went 6-2 over the run, winning and losing the WBC title twice, and sounds ready to get back to his normal pace.
Froch said he felt he'd executed "just about" perfectly on his game plan while interviewed after the fight, further saying he feels "unbeatable" when on fire the way he was in front of vocal home crowds against Bute and Mack this year. Froch is contracted to face Bute in Canada next year and stated, along with his promoter, he'd also like to have rematches with the two men to defeat him, Kessler and the lineal World Super Middleweight Champion Andre Ward.
Intimations of a Ward rematch in Nottingham are unlikely to bear fruit but should Froch continue to win in the fashion he's shown since that defeat, a rematch could emerge as a tantalizing lure on any continent.
In the chief support bout, 29-year old Light Heavyweight Tony Bellew (19-1, 12 KO), 174 ¾, of Liverpool, England, scored two early knockdowns and worked through a ghastly cut to score a lopsided unanimous decision over 33-year old Roberto Bolonti (30-1, 19 KO), 173, of Mar Del Plata, Buenos Aires, Argentina. It was Bolonti's first defeat since 2006. Bellew wins his third straight since dropping a competitive decision to World Boxing Organization (WBO) Light Heavyweight titlist Nathan Cleverly in 2011.
The referee was Victor Loughlin.
Bellew got off to an excellent start, the aggressor from the opening bell. Catching Bolonti high on the head with a right hand near the ropes, Bellew scored a knockdown to seize the early scoring edge. Attempting an early finish, Bellew let loose the heavy artillery but Bolonti covered well and made the bell. Bolonti continued to guard well in the second as Bellew looked to land clean.
Bolonti hit the deck again early in the third, going too wide with an overhand right and getting tagged with a short left hook for his trouble. Bolonti again beat the count and fired his left hook sparingly to keep Bellew honest. Bolonti was blasted to the corner with a right, and then took another. Bolonti gained a measure of revenge with a nasty left hook, opening a cut over the right eye of Bellew.
Bellew came out, and kept on, throwing the right with urgency as the crimson streamed from a nasty gash. Bolonti played defense, picking shots and perhaps looking to extend the bout and work towards a cut stoppage. Wisely, Bellew backed off and boxed more in the fifth, his corner able to stem the bleeding and the fighter able to stem the attack of Bolonti enough not to reopen the wound.
The cut was busted again in the sixth and Bellew was visited in the corner after the round despite his best efforts to control the action. Caution remained in the seventh, Bellew still winning rounds but opting for lefts to the body with his right hand glued high to the head.
Despite an injured foe, Bolonti refused to increase his attack and coasted with an abundance of respect for Bellew in rounds eight and nine. Bellew seemed to have him stunned for a moment late in the latter but Bolonti remained just elusive enough to keep himself in the scrap.
A right uppercut in the final minute of the tenth sent a shiver through the legs of Bolonti but, again, his covering defense and shifting feet staved off an end. It would be the last moment of substantial drama for the night, Bellew coasting and Bolonti letting him in the last two rounds.
Bellew was announced the winner at academic scores of 119-107 and two shutout marks of 120-106. Bellew claimed the cut didn't affect him much and expressed anticipation for a future with a likely title shot in it. Bellew entered the contest rated #14 by the WBO but, contesting on Saturday for a World Boxing Council (WBC) 'silver' belt, his fortunes may reside in the latter body. Bellew closes in on a shot at WBC and lineal World Light Heavyweight Champion Chad Dawson. Dawson is currently slated for a rematch with the first man to defeat him, Jean Pascal, in the first quarter of 2013.

text: I was out taking pictures of downtown today with my new canon t2i and although it took rather good photos. I am still new, I was messing around and it seemed since I was taking big shots I couldn't get the blur on the background of the photos like I can when I am taking pictures in my house. I am extremely new with this (first day) and I'm wondering if this is because I should buy a new lense or maybe set the apeture to a different setting?

I have just noticed this years crop of Giant hogweed begining to grow in my garden so i thought i should warn anyone who doesnt already know how dangerous these things are.
Year before last in late June, i got the sap of one of these plants on my skin - arm, leg and chest. As soon as i noticed i went in the hpuse to wash it off, but it was too late - the sunlight must have got to it and photo activated the sap. Two days later, i came up in enourmous blisters. Very very sore as well!
At hospital, they had never even heard of Giant Hogweed and the casualty doctors had to look it up on Google. The gave me some hydrocortisone cream, which helped a bit, but two years later I still have large purplish scars just as if i had been burned with a red hot poker.
One yearIn the 1970s must have been a particularly good year for giant hogweed because there there were many cases of children picking these plants and using their hollow stems as pea shooters. The resulting burns were horrific. Some transferred the sap from their hands to their eyes - presumably by just casually rubbing their eyes - and they lost their sight as a result.
It was in the news so much that year that the rock group Genesis wrote a song about it.
Its related to cow parsley. It doesnt grow in all parts of the country, but if your unlucky enough to encounter it please be very careful not to get the sap on your skin. It is sensitised by sunlight, and the results of skin contact are truly horrible - even if you wash it off straight away.

Since Valencia won La Liga 10 years ago, the title has since switched between El Clásico rivals Barcelona and Real Madrid. With the league having resumed after the winter break, Atlético Madrid are tied with Barcelona with 49 points at the top of the league and have a legit chance of breaking the streak.
After Radamel Falcao left for Monaco and was replaced by David Villa, the squad began to play with a more balanced attack offensively. Falcao's outstanding production and form has been replaced by Diego Costa. Last year, the 25-year-old had 20 goals in 44 appearances and this year the Spaniard/Brazilian is on fire. In an interview with Eurosport, Atlético's sporting director Jose Luis Caminero discussed the squad's transfer policy and how it always has to sell its best players:
"It means I'm doing my job well. To interest the biggest clubs in the world, like we do, shows that we are producing and developing excellent footballers. It's also the reality. Atleti is a big club, but not the biggest. Other clubs have more money and will try and spend that on our players. If we sell a player, then another player gets a chance. Would Diego Costa be doing how he is if Radamel Falcao was still here? He's having the best moments of his career. We've been satisfied with how we've conducted ourselves in the transfer market. The money also helps us get control of our debts. That was important given UEFA's financial fair play directive. We're in a good position."
Programming note: For viewers in the United States, the match is being shown exclusively on beIN SPORT, beIN SPORT Espanol and DishWorld. The pre-match programming begins at 1:55pm ET Saturday. Even if you don't have a TV subscription to beIN SPORT, you can access those channels via online streaming service DishWorld for $10/month. Read our review of DishWorld.

Manager Diego Simeone's 4-4-2 formation does not attack in a conventional way. They prefer to play more defensively by pressing very high and counterattacking for goals. Their forwards want to collect the ball wide then drift to the middle to create scoring opportunities. This method has worked well for Costa and Villa because they have been secondary strikers to superior players so they are used to playing wide and moving into great positions to gain possession of the ball. Simeone enjoys playing four technically gifted players in his midfield to help create scoring chances for themselves or others in position. Midfielders Koke and Gabi have been the sparkplugs in their attack so far this season. Koke has been doing a solid job on the wide left working defensively. Gabi, the team's captain, has led the side in a deeper role while beginning the attack through the middle. Arda Turan on the wide right has provided another creative player to create in the flanks and Tiago has been the muscle in the middle preventing attacks from opposition. Raúl García, in a super-sub role, has flourished in his appearances.
The backline of Atletico Madrid has been outstanding. The partnership between Diego Godín and Miranda has been excellent in central defense while fullbacks Juanfran and Filipe Luís have been aggressive to help stop attacks and being in great position to help recover the ball when their side loses it. Chelsea has allowed Thibaut Courtois to blossom into a very good goalkeeper in Spain and it remains an error that José Mourinho let him leave London this season. The addition of José Sosa on loan shows that Atlético are serious with their aspirations and adds another boost to their midfield as Sosa arrives from Ukrainian squad Metalist Kharkiv to improve his chances of playing for Argentina in the World Cup.
Los Rojiblancos face a pivotal match this weekend when they host Barcelona. The result of this match will be an excellent indicator on if they are a serious threat to end the hegemony the El Clásico participants have put up. If Atlético can continue the form, they ended 2013 with then silverware can be in their future.

The Pirate Queen of Connaught
This article is the third of five in a series by local author and history buff W.E. Tudor of Roscommon. The articles follow Tudor's recent visit to Ireland where he conducted inquiries concerning the connection between Roscommon, MI and Roscommon, Ireland.
Just west of County Roscommon lies four other counties that, along with Clare Island, together make up the province of Connaught. This hilly, rocky area that forms a part of the west coast of Ireland turned out to be an important region in my search for the connection between Roscommon County, Michigan and County Roscommon, Ireland.
I knew from my researches that Roscommon County, Michigan was named at the suggestion of C.M. O'Malley, presumably a man of Irish descent. Accordingly, I began my inquiries in Ireland by focusing on the O'Malley name. When my prearranged tour of Ireland landed me in Connaught, I hit pay dirt; I had unwittingly ventured into the homelands of the O'Malley clan, a name that traced its ancestry to the Connaught region for hundreds of years. In Irish, a large part of modern day Connaught was called Umhall U' Mha'ille (the territory of the O'Malley's).
My first clue to the importance of the O'Malley clan came while visiting a medieval church and its adjoining cemetery. The cemetery (that continues to host burials to this day) had numerous upright marble slabs marking old burial sites. As I wandered among the slabs, one particularly old marker caught my eye; it was a monument to Maire (Mary) O'Malley dated 1511. The monument was in Mary's honor to celebrate her gifts that allowed the building of several churches throughout Connaught. Obviously, this Mary O'Malley was a woman of means.
I soon discovered that Mary was one of a long line of O'Malleys who ruled Connaught during medieval times when Ireland was ruled by numerous local chieftains of Celtic origin. Each chief wielded absolute power, each lived in a grandiose castle, and each vigorously defended his territory from advances by rival chieftains. One of the chieftains was well known to the others as he vigorously defended his interests along the coastal shores of Clew Bay, west of Roscommon. He considered Clew Bay to be his personal fiefdom and his name was O'Malley.
[This ancient Irish clan surname derives from the pre 10th century Gaelic O' Maoileoin, meaning "a descendant of a follower of St. John." The relative smallness of the clan made it difficult for them to retain their lands so they turned to the water and became renowned for their maritime prowess. The first recorded spelling of the family name is believed to be that of Teag O' Maille.]
This same Clew Bay gained notoriety during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I, when there arose a pirate who commanded a fleet of swift ships operating along the west coast of Ireland. The pirate harassed any ships who had the temerity to sail too close to shorelines that were anywhere near Clew Bay. Trading ships were especially vulnerable as the most renowned pirate of the times successfully captured rich loads of trade goods. The exploits of the pirate as a fighter and sailor gained purchase and soon people across the nation were talking about the famous pirate. The most extraordinary thing was that this Irish pirate was a woman! This, during the time period 1530 – 1600 when the status of women was little higher than children. She was The Pirate Queen and her name was Granuaile (Grace) O'Malley.
Grace had taken to the water and the ships at the hands of her father, the O'Malley Chieftain. Since she was his only heir, he reluctantly let her join him on his sailing exploits. Once she tasted the air of the open sea and the command of several vessels there was no stopping her. After her father retired, Grace assumed full command of the O'Malley fleet and improved it by purchasing swift boats made in Spain.
Queen Elizabeth of England heard of the exploits of the Pirate Queen and threatened naval action against her should any vessels of the Royal Navy be accosted. Grace knew she was no match for the armed vessels of the Queen so she carefully kept her fleet close to Clew Bay where she could never be found among the many hidden coves and islands that only she knew.
Grace also knew she was vulnerable to attack by land if Elizabeth chose to invade her beloved Connaught. Grace arranged a meeting with Elizabeth to sue for peace. The two most powerful women of their time met in Queen Elizabeth's palace and arranged a peace pact of sorts.
In the end, it made little difference as chieftains all across Ireland were defeated by English forces. The conflict dragged on for years until Grace was no longer able to resist and she passed on the O'Malley territory to her son whom she had carefully groomed to lead the family.
Just like all the chieftains of Ireland, the O'Malley family ultimately lost their authority and most of their ancestral homelands. The overwhelming power of the English throne was too great to resist and the power and authority of the O'Malley name slowly faded into history.
As I discovered this history of the O'Malleys, it became clear to me that the Charles M. O'Malley who helped name Roscommon County, Michigan was probably unlike other Irish immigrants. Most who came to the United States were poor, uneducated men and women whereas our O'Malley would likely have been educated, possibly wealthy, and possessed of a rich history in leading other men and women. All this turned out to be true as I learned later. See the remaining two stories in this series for more about Charley O'Malley and how he came to name Roscommon County, Michigan.

Trinity Mirror's Digital Media division has launched a universal iOS app for the upcoming royal wedding, blending photo galleries, video clips and audio narrative from its royal correspondent James Whitaker.
Mirror: Wills & Kate a Royal Love Story is being sold for iPhone and iPad on Apple's App Store for £1.19, and launched this morning.
The app's 10 chapters are heavily image-focused, running from William's early years and relationship with his mother and father, through to his romance with Kate Middleton. Sharing features are included, with users able to post content from the app onto Facebook.
The App Store listing hopes it will appeal "to all users, whether they be staunch royalists or just swept up in the fairytale romance between William and Kate".
The Mirror actually released a special edition print magazine with the same title in November 2010, selling it for £4.99. The addition of video and Whitaker's audio narration to the iOS app show it is intended to be more than just an interactive cash-in.
The application's release is another example of a publisher looking for one-shot opportunities on the App Store.
Earlier in March, News Corporation published an iPad app tribute to actress Elizabeth Taylor just two days after her death. Released by its digital news subsidiary the Daily, it too sold on the App Store with a £1.19 price tag.
