They say an apple a day keeps the doctor away, but that's far from the only benefit that apples provide. In addition to using apples to make cider, apple pie, and apple cobbler, there are many other things you can do and make with apples. Explore the following unusual uses for apples if you would like to find new and interesting ways to put one of falls favorite fruits to use.
1. Keep Your Cakes Fresh
Whether a cake is store-bought or homemade, you can keep it fresh for longer by storing it with half an apple in the fridge. The apple helps keep the cake moist for longer.
2. Reduce Salt Content in Your Soups
Did you accidentally put too much salt into your soup or stew? Simply put a few apples wedges into the pot and remove them after about 10 minutes. The apple wedges will soak up the excess salt.
3. Make Fruit Leather
Preserve the abundance of fall by using apples to make fruit leather, a delicious and healthy treat that everyone in your family will love. To make fruit leather, you have to simmer apples with water, sugar, lemon juices, and spices over the stove, puree the mixture, spread the mixture onto a lined baking sheet, and dry it in an oven overnight.
4. Apple Facial Mask
Not only can you stuff your face with apples, you can also put apple on your face to reduce the appearance of inflammation, fine lines, and wrinkles. To make a soothing apple facial mask, grate a peeled and cored apple, apply it to your skin, and let it sit for 15 minutes. Rinse your face with warm water afterwards. You can also mix the grated apple with oatmeal, grated cucumber, mint leaves or honey to give your facial mask a boost.
5. Ripen Other Fruits
Apples release ethylene gas, which makes fruits go ripe faster. If you have some fruits you want to ripen more quickly, put them in a paper bag along with a ripened apple. The only fruits that will not ripen with the help of apples are oranges, tangerines, and pineapples.
6. Soften Brown Sugar
You know how brown sugar hardens up when it is in a humid environment? The good news is that you can make brown sugar soft enough to handle and use again with – you guessed it – apples. Put a hardened chunk of brown sugar and an apple wedge in a sealed plastic bag. Put the bag in a dry place for a couple of days, and voila, your brown sugar will be soft again.
7. Apple Candleholders
Yes, you can make adorable tealight candleholders out of apples! Cut a hole into the top of an apple and scoop out the fruit, leaving a hole about the size of a tealight candle that's slightly more than an inch deep. Pour lemon juice into the hole and let it sit there for five minutes to prevent the flesh of the apple from turning brown so quickly. Add a drop of melted wax to the hole and then insert the candle. Apple candleholders provide a warm glow and release an applelicious aroma.
These are just some unusual uses for apples, but there are many more! The next time you find yourself with a batch of apples, remember that you can do a lot more with the fruit besides eat it. Put these interesting uses for apples to the test to make the most of your apples this fall.

At a press conference held in Harare earlier today MDC President, Morgan Tsvangirai, informed journalists that the MDC had received information that Zanu PF was printing thousands of 'MDC t-shirts' to be worn by Zanu PF thugs in order to spark trouble during the nationwide 'democracy marches' that will take place next week. To counter Zanu PF's insidious plan Tsvangirai has called on all protesters not to wear any MDC regalia.

Zimbabwe's MDC to press on with anti-govt protest
By Cris Chinaka
HARARE, May 30 (Reuters) - Zimbabwe's main opposition party said on Friday
it would press ahead next week with protests against President Robert
Mugabe, but warned that militant government supporters could turn the
demonstrations bloody.
The army deployed soldiers in some of the country's restive urban townships
on Friday evening, residents said, and five cabinet ministers appeared on
state television to warn Zimbabweans that the government would stamp out any
"This is an attempt to stage a coup d'etat and it will not be tolerated,"
said Justice Minister Patrick Chinamasa.
But Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) leader Morgan Tsvangirai told
reporters his party was not deterred by government threats to crush the
He said the MDC was still set on forcing Mugabe into talks on Zimbabwe's
future, which is currently overshadowed by crippling shortages of cash, food
and fuel that highlight the seriousness of country's worst political and
economic crisis in decades.
The MDC's political allies, including some small opposition parties working
under the umbrella of pressure group National Constitutional Assembly (NCA),
backed Tsvangirai with a call for Mugabe to resign ahead of a week of mass
protests scheduled to start on Monday.
Tsvangirai said he had information that Mugabe had issued guns to his war
veteran supporters to stop the protests, but said the MDC for its part was
determined to ensure the protests were peaceful.
"I want to assure you that nothing is going to deter us. Mugabe has to be
brought to the negotiating table," he said.
"The potential of violence and the risk of violence can only come from the
state," he added.
At a separate news conference, NCA political parties representative Wurayayi
Zembe said Zimbabwe was in a horrific state of disaster.
"It is evident to all that the illegitimate ZANU-PF regime has failed to
govern and that its downfall is imminent."
Two months ago the MDC organised one of the biggest protests against
Mugabe's 23-year rule. Now the party has dubbed next week's demonstrations
the "final push" to drive from power a man who it says has grossly
mismanaged one of Africa's most promising economies.
Mugabe, Zimbabwe's sole ruler since the former Rhodesia gained independence
from Britain in 1980, denies that charge.
The 79-year-old former guerrilla leader blames the southern African
country's troubles on opponents of his controversial drive to seize
white-owned farms to hand to landless blacks.

Zim army vows to crack down on protesters
May 30 2003 at 03:14AM
By Basildon Peta
Zimbabwean army units have begun deploying across the country in preparation
for planned opposition street protests aimed at toppling President Robert
Government officials said soldiers in barracks around Harare were moving
weapons and deploying in other cities and towns.
The deployments followed a public threat by Mugabe's army to crush the
protests called by the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC).
Officials said the entire Zimbabwean army had been mobilised and officers'
leave cancelled.
'Final push to force Mugabe to accept reality'
The MDC raised the stakes by insisting that it would press ahead with its
The main aim of the week-long protests - "the final push for freedom" - was
to force Mugabe, 79, to "accept reality" and leave office, it said.
The army said it would not tolerate the protests because they were likely to
turn violent.
Mugabe warned the MDC that it had no chance of pushing him out of power. He
said the opposition would rule Zimbabwe only "over our dead bodies".
The Zimbabwe Defence Forces warned the MDC that it was "standing ready" to
resist against violence.
In advertisements in the independent press, the MDC has called upon the army
to disobey "illegal orders" to suppress the will of the people.
The MDC warned that soldiers taking part in Mugabe's "terror against the
people" would be dealt with severely whenever it formed a future government.
But this attracted even more military ire: "The MDC is hereby warned that
such activities are in contravention of the Zimbabwe Defence Forces Act ...
which makes it an offence for any person to interfere with members of the
uniformed forces in the performance of their duties," said the army.
In what was seen as a warning to would-be protesters, the police swooped on
a group of women at a prayer session on Wednesday and arrested three
The prayer session was one of many called by the MDC as a prelude to next
week's protests.
The police said the prayer session had been a "rehearsal" for next week's
mass action and was thus "illegal".
The women were still in police custody on Thursday.
The police also said they had collected several "illegal" pamphlets urging
people to take part in the street protests.
The army's threat comes amid information that it is secretly arming Mugabe's
militias and youth brigades.
Army sources promised chaos and bloodshed on a scale never seen before if
protesters tried to march into Mugabe's official residence in Harare.
Sources said Mugabe was taking the MDC threats seriously and was well aware
that the last national strike by the opposition had been an overwhelming
success. He was therefore not underestimating the strike's dangers. -

Zimbabwe police chief gives up Interpol title
PARIS, May 30 - Zimbabwe's police commissioner has resigned from the
executive committee of Interpol after claims his honorary title amounted to
an endorsement for Zimbabwe from the international police organisation.
Interpol said in a statement on Friday Augustine Chihuri had given up
his title as honorary vice-president of the committee after a Zimbabwean
police spokesman inaccurately suggested it endorsed the actions of police in
that country.
''The statement was inaccurate,'' said Interpol Secretary General
Ronald Noble. The title was one of several routinely handed out by the
executive committee to outgoing members to recognise their work, he added.
Human rights groups have accused the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP)
of using repressive legislation to systematically harass, arrest and torture
critics of President Robert Mugabe.
''The fact that a ZRP spokesman attempted to use Interpol to fight
off political criticism has caused Interpol to be unfairly and unnecessarily
attacked,'' Noble said.
Interpol, which groups 181 member countries, is banned from
involvement in political activities.
The Zimbabwe Defence Forces, which group the army, air force and
police, have warned they will deal forcefully with any violence linked to
planned protest marches next week against Mugabe.

Mugabe told to 'surrender'
Harare - A coalition of Zimbabwean civic and political groups on Friday
called on President Robert Mugabe and his Zanu-PF party to surrender power
or face widespread resistance to their "oppressive rule".
Wurayayi Zembe, the representative of political parties within the National
Constitutional Assembly, which advocates a new democratic constitution for
the country, said Mugabe's surrender would pave the way for a national
constitutional conference.
"Failure by Mugabe to make a national statement of surrender will leave us
with no option but to intensify our multifaceted resistance to oppressive
rule," Zembe told a news conference.
Expressing support for the planned opposition antigovernment strike and
street marches next week, Zembe said: "We urge the people of Zimbabwe to put
more pressure on the illegitimate Zanu-PF regime until the people's power is
established through a democratic constitution."
'A murderous government'
Mugabe's "final downfall is imminent", he added.
"The government is so defunct that it cannot provide the citizens with the
means to have money. It has become a murderous government... they have
buried us alive."
Zimbabwe has in recent weeks faced an unprecedented shortage of cash
resulting in some banks and institutions turning to the black market to buy
Zimbabwe dollars to give to clients.
Speaking on behalf of the six opposition parties aligned to the NCA, Zembe
called for the dissolution of parliament, which he said had been abused by
its own pro-Mugabe majority to enact repressive laws.

Zim protest a 'coup attempt'
Harare - The government accused the main opposition Friday of planning a
coup to oust longtime ruler President Robert Mugabe in its call for mass
anti-government demonstrations next week.
Justice Minister Patrick Chinamasa warned that the planned demonstrations,
illegal under the country's strict security laws, would be met with "the
full wrath of the law", state radio reported.
The opposition Movement for Democratic Change has called mass protests and
strikes on Monday through Friday in what it described as a "final push"
against Mugabe's government.
Chinamasa said this means the opposition has threatened to remove Mugabe
from office by unconstitutional means.
"The state cannot take such threats lightly," he told the Zimbabwe
Broadcasting Corporation.
The justice minister said the opposition's call for Zimbabweans to take to
the streets meant they were bent on a campaign of violence and anarchy
against the government intended to result in the overthrow of Mugabe's
The opposition has promised only peaceful protests.
"Resort to a coup d'etat is unconstitutional and unlawful and thus
constitutes the serious crime of high treason," Chinamasa said.
Opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai and two senior opposition officials are
already facing treason charges for what the state prosecution says was a
plot to assassinate Mugabe in late 2001. All three vehemently deny the
charges and say they were framed by a Canadian-based political consultant
hired by Zimbabwe's secret police Central Intelligence Organisation.
Tsvangirai met with reporters at his party headquarters Friday and said he
and opposition leaders will head Monday's street marches.
"It is important to take a front line role," he said.
Officials said Tsvangirai was expected to lead one march toward downtown
Harare before reporting to court Monday morning for the resumption of the
treason trial against him.
Zimbabwe's military said on Thursday it would take to the streets in force
to deal with any "perpetrators of violence" during the planned
Police officials, meanwhile, refused to comment on reports all vacationing
officers were being recalled to their posts Friday and all pending leave was
"He must understand it is our constitutional right to resort to peaceful
protests," Tsvangirai said. "Our action is going to be peaceful," he said.
The planned five days of demonstrations are a bid to force Mugabe into
discuss the nation's deepening economic and political crisis, the opposition
says. They also hope he would agree to step down as president and that
presidential elections could be swiftly scheduled.
Mugabe has refused to meet with the opposition until it recognises his
narrow victory in last year's disputed presidential elections that the
opposition and independent observers said were rigged.
Tsvangirai said on Friday that ruling party militants and veterans of the
independence war that swept Mugabe to power in 1980 were issued with arms
and ammunition on the orders of the president and top military officials.
"Judging by the state response, the potential and risk of violence can only
come from the state. The potential that this degenerates into shooting
cannot be underestimated," Tsvangirai said.
He also said the government had printed opposition T-shirts and other
symbols of the party for ruling party militants to use in instigating
violence which they can later blame on the opposition.
The government has repeatedly denied using such tactics and says it has not
armed nonmembers of its security forces.
Zimbabwe is facing its worst economic crisis since independence with record
inflation of 269% and acute shortages of hard currency, local money,
gasoline, medicines and other essential imports and food. Half of the 13

Zimbabwe prints emergency cash
The firm which prints Zimbabwe's banknotes is working round-the-clock
to ease the cash shortage, the central bank governor says.
Leonard Tsumba urged Zimbabweans not to panic, saying that extra
printing paper arrived in Harare on Thursday and would be used immediately.
Banks have been running low on banknotes since a national strike last
The opposition has called for a week-long strike and "democracy
marches" next week and people were again queuing to withdraw cash on
'High treason'
Banks have limited the amount of cash customers can withdraw in a
single transaction.
Inflation is currently running at an annual rate of 269% and Mr Tsumba
said that a new 1,000 Zimbabwe dollar note would be introduced in November.
Justice Minister Patrick Chinamasa has accused the opposition Movement
for Democratic Change of "high-treason" by calling next week's protests.
"The clear intention behind such threatened actions is to effect a
coup d'etat against the legitimately elected government of Zimbabwe," he was
quoted as saying by the Zimbabwe Broadcasting Corporation (ZBC).
This is the first time the MDC will engage in mass action against the
government since last year's disputed presidential elections.
Stocking up
There are also shortages of basic commodities such as bread, sugar and
Some eight million people require food aid, according to aid agencies.
The opposition blame the shortages on economic mismanagement, while Mr
Mugabe says they are a result of a Western plot to bring him down.
The main trade union umbrella organisation has urged workers to stock
up on the staple food, maize-meal, and cash ahead of next week's protests.

Traders Holding Large Quantities of Bank Notes in Neighbouring Countries
The Herald (Harare)
May 29, 2003
Posted to the web May 30, 2003
ZIMBABWE is facing a serious problem of foreign currency with foreign
traders holding large quantities of bank notes in neighbouring countries,
worsening the shortage of bank notes.
Black market activities, both for basic commodities and foreign currency at
the country's borders, have seen large piles of the Zimbabwean bank notes
being stashed near border posts to finance transactions there.
Economist and business consultant Dr Samuel Undenge said traders outside the
were holding million of dollars in bank notes.
"One wonders how so much money was allowed out of the country," said Dr
Most of the banknotes are being held in Zambia, Mozambique and the United
Kingdom where there are many Zimbabweans.
Analysts said most Zimbabwean currency that is externalised rarely comes
back to into the country as it continues to circulate in those neighbouring
"If you go into Manica, Nyamapanda or Chimoio in Mozambique right now to
sell your goods you are paid for those goods with new crisp Zimbabwe notes
by that Mozambican trader because locals prefer the local currency which
they use back home and not the Mozambican currency which is not convertible
"When they are given the money instead of bringing it back into the country
they change that money into United States dollars to enhance their profits
when they come back home so in the end those Zimbabwe dollars continue to
circulate in that country.
"Most of the Zimbabwean traders change the money to United States dollars so
that when they come back to the country they can change those dollars at a
better rate and our Zimbabwean dollar remain in that country," said one
They said similar transaction occurred on the Zambian side of the border,
where it is easy to see traders waving the local currency to Zimbabwean
bound travellers for them to change their hard currencies.
"Not all travelers coming into the country change their money at the border
so that same trader will keep that money there until he find buyers or
alternatively until he decides to buy from local stores," another analyst
When the new $500 notes were first introduced two years ago, many of the
notes were already in Mozambique before most people had even seen them here.
"The whole scenario calls for the relevant authorities to plug these leaks
because they have also reduced the money in circulation.
Dr Undenge said that the current banknote shortage could also be attributed
to the recent price increases.
"You have a situation where prices have quadrupled and this means the demand
for cash has also increased four fold.
"The situation has been made worse by the central bank which has insisted
that they would not print more notes as it would fuel inflation.
"The argument that an increase in money supply would fuel inflation does not
work because the rate of inflation has increased already," added Dr Undenge.
Another economist, Mr David Mupamhadzi said the issue of externalisation of
local currency and its contribution to the current banknote shortage was
"What I can say is that the issue of externalisation of local currency is
the symptom of a problem that was already prevalent in the country.
"There are basically three reasons for people to keep money and that is as a
precautionary measure, as a contingency plan and the third reason for
speculative purposes and the last two apply to the current situation.
"Under the current economic system people are keeping money for contingency
reasons. One has to have money with them all the time in case they bump into
some commodity which is currently in short supply.
Mr Mupamhadzi said that the situation also applied to speculative reasons.
"For one to be able to speculate one has to have money at all times so when
the central bank last year pegged maximum withdrawals at $500 000 most
speculators began withdrawing their money gradually and most of the money
ended up on the informal channels," he said.
Mr Mupamhadzi said that there was need to put in place incentives for
deposits so that the banknotes being held outside the official channels
could be brought back into the official channels.
"One way of doing it is to increase deposit rates or the introduction of
competitions for people to keep certain balances so that they are eligible
to win several thousands or millions of dollars at the end of six months or
a year," Mr Mupamhadzi said.
He said that printing money is not a solution since it would only fuel
inflation since it would not be matched by production.
"In any case even if the Reserve Bank is to print say $10 billion and feed
it through the official channels that money will be gone within the end of
the day," he said.

Concern Over Cash Crunch At the Banks
May 30, 2003
Posted to the web May 30, 2003
Zimbabwe's banks were gridlocked on Friday amid severe currency shortages
which left thousands of workers facing the prospect of no cash at month's
end to buy food and pay bills.
Many of those queueing were hoping to withdraw enough money to stock up
ahead of a week of expected stayaways and closed shops as a result of
anti-government protests called by the opposition Movement for Democratic
Most of the people in bank queues were women, many with children, who had
been waiting for hours hoping to draw money, a source at a women's resource
centre told IRIN.
Some banks had closed their automatic teller machines (ATMs) and were
limiting withdrawals, leaving customers with only enough money for small
purchases or to pay an electricity bill, she said. To make sure their
families are fed, women are likely to turn to local vegetable plots, or try
to secure credit from small traders near their homes.
The Herald newspaper reported that to alleviate the problem, the Reserve
Bank of Zimbabwe would inject $24 billion (US $29 million) in $500 (US 61
cents) notes into the market by mid-June and would introduce a Zim $1,000
(US $1.23) note at the end of November.
Economist John Robertson explained that the banks' cash shortage was brought
on by an inflation rate of 269 percent, low interest rates discouraging
deposits, and a scarcity of foreign currency to buy materials to print
"There is no advantage to putting money into the bank because the interest
rates are so small and, once you put it in, you have trouble getting it out.
So, many people have decided to keep their cash," Robertson said.
He added that the chronic shortages of food and essential goods in Zimbabwe
had reduced people to carrying large sums of cash in the hope of finding a
scarce item, or a petrol station with fuel for sale.
"Most people are walking around with wads of cash in their pockets all the
time in case they find what they are looking for, instead of the cash going
into the bank," Robertson said.

Comment from Business Day (SA), 30 May
Mugabenomics: Zimbabwe's fast track to economic ruin
By Jethro Goko, Deputy Editor
Nothing typifies Harare's way of doing things more than the hilarious
interview that talk show radio 702 recently had with one of President Robert
Mugabe's most trusted lieutenants, which the station occasionally replays to
my utter glee. In the interview, bubbly early morning host John Robbie asks
Nathan Shamuyarira a politburo member of the ruling Zanu PF and former
senior cabinet minister what Harare is doing to resolve Zimbabwe's worsening
political and economic crisis. In his sleepy baritone voice, Shamuyarira
asks "What crisis?", à la one of those television creatures from outer
space. All of the irrepressible Robbie's subsequent efforts to elicit some
comprehensible response on Zimbabwe's much-publicised food, fuel and foreign
exchange crises are met with an emotionless and depressingly disinterested
"no". It is staggering wonderful journalistic work. However, to those who
know how Mugabe and Zanu PF operate, there is nothing particularly
noteworthy about Shamuyarira's replies. This is the ruling party's way of
doing things, the way that has brought Zimbabwe to its knees: a cold world
where nothing means anything, so to speak.
A bizarre story, which was an ominous pointer to the economic disaster that
has befallen Zimbabwe, did the rounds in Harare at independence in 1980,
when Mugabe was appointed prime minister. The new team of officials at the
finance ministry made up of some of the finest economists the country has
ever produced decided to develop a very comprehensive fact sheet, to be
delivered to the crown prince every day to tell him about the state of the
economy. Just a few months after the fact sheet was introduced, there was a
hitch in its preparation one day and someone was dispatched to the prime
minister's office to apologise for the delay. To the surprise and horror of
the adviser, the private secretary told him not to worry because the prime
minister never read the fact sheet anyway, as he did not consider it
particularly necessary. As one of the advisers who claims to have been
around then puts it: "It was like working for a mechanic who does not
believe in checking oil in the car." So, not surprisingly, Zimbabwe's
economy is on the verge of collapse.
With an inflation rate probably nearer 500% than the official figure of
300%, prices are shooting up daily, making Zimbabwe possibly the world's
fastest-documented contracting economy all thanks to Uncle Bob, who has
always seemingly been bent on defying even the most basic laws of economics.
Take for example his legendary dismissal of his finance ministers (the last
one to taste his wrath was the literate but timid Simba Makoni, now
tragically being touted as a presidential hopeful) and his passionate belief
that the law of supply and demand does not apply to Zimbabwe. If anything is
in short supply, Mugabe imposes price controls. The absurdity of
Mugabenomics reached its zenith in the late 1980s when former cabinet
minister Maurice Nyagumbo the liberation hero who had been incarcerated in
prison the longest (20 years) by white minority leader Ian Smith committed
suicide (or was he done in) after he could not understand why he was being
humiliated in public for helping an agricultural co-operative to acquire a
vehicle and selling it for above prescribed prices.
One of the principal pillars of Mugabenomics, of course, is his apparent
belief that a country cannot go broke. Under this misguided approach, he has
used fixed assets to pay for recurrent expenditure: to the extent that he
has even mortgaged land in his desperate attempts to get fuel from the
Libyans - the same land that he says he is so keen to see get into the hands
of ordinary Zimbabweans. Many Zimbabweans trace the beginning of their
economic problems to payments made by Mugabe to war veterans in 1997, which
cost the fiscus billions of unbudgeted Zimbabwe dollars. This launched the
now official policy of printing paper money, which has fuelled inflation.
Then there was the devastating blow dealt to the economy a year later, in
1998, when Mugabe greedily and expediently decided to get enmeshed in the
Congo war. Although this war benefited many of his cronies as they looted
the Congo's resources it proved to be a misadventure of monumental
proportions; the proverbial straw that broke the camel's back. Zimbabwe has
never been the same since then.
But why am I writing about all this? I am gatvol with Mugabe's apologists,
who keep harping on about the cause of the crisis as essentially the
unintended, but consistent, consequences of the dear leader's good
intentions for his nation. What claptrap. If there is any consistency in
Mugabe's policies, it is that they have been founded on arrogance,
incompetence and an inexplicable callousness that should not be associated
with a man who had the opportunity to be revered as one of Africa's greatest

From The Catholic Herald (UK), 30 May
Church's media blackout on Ncube visit
Outspoken Zimbabwe archbishop says Church officials made him agree to stay
silent about human rights abuses and political violence on visit to England
By Simon Caldwell
The most outspoken Catholic cleric in Zimbabwe was subject to a media
blackout during his first visit to England - at the insistence of Church
officials in Britain. Archbishop Pius Ncube of Bulawayo, who has won
international praise for his prophetic condemnation of human rights abuses
in Zimbabwe, visited London and concelebrated Mass in Westminster Cathedral
on Sunday May 11. He spoke to non-governmental organisations working in his
country the day after and held meetings with Cardinal Cormac
Murphy-O'Connor, Bishop David Konstant of Leeds, chairman of the bishops'
department for international affairs, and Bishop John Rawsthorne of Hallam,
chairman of Cafod, the overseas development agency of the Bishops'
Conference of England and Wales. But he did not give any interviews to the
Press or broadcast media and none was made aware of his visit. Archbishop
Ncube later flew to the United States, where last week he enjoyed a higher
profile even though he said he wished his visit to remain low key while
South Africa, Nigeria and Malawi attempted to broker a deal between Mr
Mugabe and the opposition Movement for Democratic Change. In Washington DC,
Archbishop Ncube was praised publicly by Secretary of State Colin Powell and
spoke openly of the plight of the people of his country in an interview in
The Washington Times. Almost at the same time, the Pope criticised Mr
Mugabe's violent land reform programme during a meeting with Kelebert
Nkomani, Zimbabwe's Ambassador to the Holy See. John Paul II said: "It is an
error to think that any real benefit or success will come simply by
expropriating large landholdings, dividing them into smaller production
units and distributing them to others ... [land reform] should be in full
accord with national policies and those of national bodies."
On his return to Zimbabwe, Archbishop Ncube said his visit to Britain was
kept out of the public eye because the Catholic bishops, "under the auspices
of Cafod", feared that his "role as a mediator for peace" would be
compromised if he publicly criticised President Mugabe, who views Britain as
his biggest enemy. He said he was told that if he spoke to the Press about
the human rights situation in Zimbabwe, it might cause a further
deterioration in his "already strained" relationship with Mr Mugabe, a
situation which could put his life at risk. Archbishop Ncube told The
Catholic Herald that he was happy to abide by the publicity ban. An article
in The Spectator of May 24 had earlier alleged that the "Catholic
establishment" wanted to block altogether the visit of Archbishop Ncube but
Shadow Foreign Secretary Michael Ancram, a Catholic, made it known at a
Church party in London on April 29, the week of the Low Week meetings, that
he would cause a public fuss if Archbishop Ncube were stopped. Bishop
Konstant this week vehemently denied the allegations made by Peter Oborne,
the author of the piece. "This is absolute nonsense, period," said the
bishop. "There was no press ban. It is very straightforward. The article is
not true. It is really quite extraordinary how they [The Spectator] were
able to, if you like, twist a perfectly straightforward matter in the way
that they have done." Bishop Konstant said he had "no idea" why no media
were notified about the archbishop's visit. Archbishop Ncube, however, told
a group of NGOs on May 12 that the two-hour briefing he gave them on the
situation in Zimbabwe was "100 per cent off the record" because of an
agreement he had with the English and Welsh bishops. Matthew Heard of the
Catholic Institute for International Relations, who was at the meeting, said
the ban surprised him because only a month earlier Archbishop Ncube joined
the other eight Catholic bishops of the country in signing a Lenten pastoral
letter which explicitly condemned the "frightening" corruption, lawlessness,
food shortages and the abuses of power committed by the regime. Mr Heard
said: "We were more or less expecting him to comment along that line. I
believe he didn't say too much when he was in Westminster Cathedral as
After the Mass in Westminster, Ncube was twice applauded by the congregation
when cathedral administrator Fr Mark Langham thanked him for his visit and
hailed him a "heroic and outspoken defender of human rights in Zimbabwe".
The archbishop told the congregation: "I ask you to continue to pray for
Zimbabwe. It is a very difficult situation when leaders who started out
being very exemplary all of a sudden forget people. There is widespread
starvation. Thanks to Cafod and the World Food Programme half a million
starving people are receiving food. But conditions are difficult. There are
100 per cent price increases every week. We hope these difficulties will be
overcome by God's mercy." The day after, on Monday May 12, Tim Livesey, a
spokesman for the Cardinal who is on secondment from 10 Downing Street,
explained his failure to inform The Catholic Herald of the archbishop's
visit by saying he had been "unaware" that Ncube was coming. But some
sources suggested however that Mr Livesey and Joachim Van Halosz, another of
the Cardinal's press officers, had liaised regularly with the Zimbabwe
Democratic Trust in the run up to the visit. Archbishop Ncube's outspoken
stance against the political violence of the Zanu-PF party has led to his
arrest by Mugabe's police. He is followed, his phone is tapped and has been
subject to abuse, death threats and intimidating visits from members of the
security forces. Yet he continues to campaign against "violence, hunger and
hardship", leading protests at the Queen's Sports Club stadium in Bulawayo
ahead of a World Cup cricket match there in March. Neither Cafod director
Julian Filochowski nor a spokesman for the Cardinal would comment.

The Forgotten Tragedy
With the attention of the international community firmly fixed on the
fall-out of the U.S. invasion of Iraq, the plight of Zimbabwe, once
"Africa's Breadbasket", has been largely ignored.
Zoe Flood
"We are hurtling towards a disaster of catastrophic proportions. I fear for
myself, my family and for my country" a Zimbabwean friend writes. "Surely
Zimbabwe cannot go on like this," another asks incredulously, "But day after
day we do." Such are the messages coming from ordinary people whose lives
have, in the last three years, been thrown into chaos and uncertainty by an
increasingly tyrannical leader desperately clinging on to power.
In recent months, while the world's gaze has been captivated by history's
first 24-hour, live war and by a Western crusade to unseat, in the words of
Tony Blair, "one of the most revolting regimes in history", Zimbabwe has
descended further to a level at which daily life is characterised by, at
best, food and petrol shortages (pictured right), hyper-inflation and
despair, and at worst, starvation, torture and death.
When my mother first took me to her beautiful homeland, Zimbabwe was
celebrated as the "breadbasket of Africa", the post-colonial success story,
and Robert Mugabe, a committed socialist and leader of the ruling Zanu-PF
party, was hailed for his policy of racial reconciliation and his plans to
improve the health, living standards and education of black Zimbabweans. A
little over 23 years later, and Mugabe's grip on the nation has become a
stranglehold. The economy lies in tatters, with inflation at a crippling
269%, and state repression is the order of the day.
Two weeks ago, the last foreign journalist reporting from the country, The
Guardian's Andrew Meldrum, was forcibly deported. Just days later, Australia
confirmed its stance as one of the regime's most outspoken critics with the
presentation to a Commonwealth Action Group of a report entitled "The Record
of Abuse and Repression by the Zimbabwean Government". The report described
in detail acts of rape, torture and "the repression of the opposition" by
the government. It confirmed alarming reports that have recently emerged of
youth camps where young Zimbabweans are trained to be government killers,
forming the notorious 'National Youth Service', better known as the 'Green
Bombers' in recognition of the violence they perpetrate.
The horrors do not stop there. Human rights campaigners cite that there have
been over 200 government-instigated murders in the past three years, with
the Zimbabwe Human Rights NGO Forum reporting that in 2002 alone, there were
over 1,046 cases of torture and at least 58 politically motivated deaths.
Amongst those tortured was Mark Chavunduka, the editor of the
privately-owned newspaper, The Standard, with attacks on freedom of speech
continuing when the printing presses of The Daily News were blown up.
Draconian and repressive legislation such as the 2001 Broadcasting Services
Act, which gives ministers the authority to interfere with the content of
broadcasting programming, has accorded the government with the tools to
silence critics. And silence it does. In March this year, the opposition
party, the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC), called for a two-day
national stay-away from work in protest at the government, in which around
80 per cent of employees participated. MDC officials claim that over 500
people were arrested shortly after, with over half this number subsequently
requiring hospital treatment for the injuries sustained in custody.
If fear of the national police and the dreaded Central Intelligence
Organisation does not sufficiently paralyse the opposition, then the daily
hunt for life's basic necessities will preoccupy most. Over half of the
country's population, amounting to more than 6 million people, are now
facing severe food shortages. Those who do have access to food must daily
face supermarket shelves empty of the most basic of provisions, or
alternatively fork out up to $3,000 (when the minimum wage for an agricultur
al worker is only $23,070 per annum) for a pound of butter on the
increasingly ferocious black market. Soaring petrol prices force citizens to
spend fruitless hours in extensive queues, only to be ultimately denied
fuel. A decade ago, $145,000 would have bought a spacious house in Harare's
suburbs; just last year, my grandmother spent $113,000, the remainder of her
life-savings still trapped in the country due to government restrictions, on
a week-long advertisement of said house Harare's Herald newspaper
How then, did a country possessing such potential and such hope descend into
this quagmire, where unemployment stands at 70 per cent and where over 30
per cent of the adult population are sufferers of HIV or AIDS? Last
Thursday's debate at the Union attempted to address this very question, and
to identify to whom the blame should be attributed. Peter Tatchell, a human
rights campaigner famous for several attempted citizen's arrests of Mugabe
and a speaker at the debate, firmly believes that the present government is
responsible, saying that "Mugabe took control and simply failed to deliver".
Tatchell had his own taste of the repression suffered by those Zimbabweans
who dared to oppose the government, having been assaulted and told he would
be killed by Mugabe's bodyguards in Brussels. I asked him somewhat
unthinkingly whether he was frequently able to visit the country for which
he campaigned so tirelessly. "Of course not!" he responded, "I'd be killed."
He told me of how a Zimbabwean government plot to murder him had been
thwarted just in time by police in London. "I get very scared at times," he
George Shire, who had fought for Zanu-PF in the War of Liberation, spoke of
Zimbabwe's "longer history" as being the cause of violence, echoing
Meldrum's words that the "Rhodesian regime was so violent that only violence
could unseat it".
Whilst the colonial legacy has certainly contributed to Zimbabwe's tragic
present, Mugabe had a choice about which path to follow. Francis Maude MP,
former Shadow Foreign Secretary and an outspoken critic of Mugabe's regime,
acknowledged on Thursday that the President had used his power in the past
for good ends. His objectives became "appalling" around three years ago
when, according to Maude, Mugabe began to use the "issue of land reform as a
useful alibi" to disguise the steps he was taking to consolidate his own
When I was last in Zimbabwe in 2000, a friend remarked that the country
could only be saved if someone were to remove the leader that sat at the
pinnacle of the repressive and corrupt system. Tatchell agreed, saying:
"Mugabe is the linchpin - if he goes, the system will crumble". Yet in
recent days, Mugabe has announced that discussions about who will succeed
him may begin. Numerous citizens have noted bitterly that without valuable
natural resources the West is unlikely to rush in to save the country, an
observation that so far seems to ring true. Hope perhaps lies with the
hungry and angry Zimbabweans. The MDC has called for renewed "mass action"
next week, with the more optimistic suggesting that this will be the "final
push". Others do not see a stubborn megalomaniac giving way so easily.
Whether the oppressed of Zimbabwe succeed in recovering at least some of
their democratic rights, the fact remains that these continue to be tragic
times, and Zimbabwe should not be ignored.

Security forces on full alert, says Goche
Herald Reporter
SECURITY forces are on full alert countrywide and have the means and
capacity to deal with individuals and groups bent on overthrowing the
Government, the Minister of State for National Security Cde Nicholas Goche
warned yesterday.
Cde Goche, who is also the chairman of the Joint Operation Command said this
ahead of next week's planned protest march organised by the MDC to topple
the Government.
"The MDC's persistent calls for violent mass actions, not only negate
national democratic practices, but also undermine national security," he
said. "This is not acceptable and the security forces will discharge their
constitutional responsibilities of maintaining law and order."
The Joint Operation Command comprises the ministries of defence, home
affairs and national security.
Defence Minister Cde Sydney Sekeramayi and Home Affairs Minister Cde Kembo
Mohadi were present when Cde Goche read a joint statement for the JOC.
Cde Goche said security ministries noted with concern the MDC's declared
intention to unlawfully remove the constitutionally elected President and
Government of Zimbabwe from power.
"The avenues for a constitutional change of government are provided for in
the Constitution of Zimbabwe. The Constitution stipulates that multi-party
parliamentary and presidential elections are held every five and six years
"Any other means of ascending to power are unconstitutional and therefore
treasonous," he said.
Security forces as defenders of the Constitution of Zimbabwe, he said, have
a duty to protect the Constitution and Zimbabwe.
"Despite claims by the organisers of the so-called 'final push' that there
would be no violence, we have learnt from experience that the mass actions
always turn violent, resulting in loss of life and wanton destruction of
"Mass action is in itself an act of economic sabotage which also includes
banditry and terrorism," Cde Goche said.
He said intelligence at hand indicated that MDC and its formations plan to
unleash violence on the public and against Government institutions and
property and to use members of the public to pursue its narrow and sectional
"We will provide security to individuals and organisations going about their
lawful business. We will protect lives and property. We will deal with
lawless elements," he said.
"We wish to state categorically that the security forces cherish democratic
values as enshrined in our Constitution."
Justice, Legal and Parliamentary Affairs Minister Cde Patrick Chinamasa also
warned that perpetrators of illegal mass actions would face the full wrath
of the law.
He said it was crystal clear that the motive behind the threatened action
was to effect a coup against the legitimately elected Government of
He warned the public not to be misled by the MDC into thinking that it was
pursuing peaceful and lawful means to bring a new regime in the country.
"MDC's violent path has a track record," he said. "They have in the past
misled the public into thinking that it was pursuing peaceful means through
court action but outside the court they speak a different language. They
speak peace when they actually plan to wage war against the Government."
MDC has in the last few weeks been holding rallies countrywide to mobilise
support for what the opposition party calls the 'final push' to oust
President Mugabe from power.

They're Still Married, But What Carrie Underwood's Husband Just Revealed Moved Me To Tears
Mike Fisher married country diva Carrie Underwood a few years ago, but it wasn't just his good looks that attracted the American Idol alumna, but rather his heart.
Now the pair has a family of their own, including a son, Isaiah and they're taking the nation by storm through their power careers, shared authenticity, and mutual charm. But things haven't always been so sweet.
Recently Mike sat down and went on record to describe a past we had no idea about and how faith has impacted his life.
Born into a Christian family and accepting Jesus at 6 years old, Fisher quickly rose to the top of his game in professional hockey, joining the Canadian Hockey league at the age of 17.
After playing hockey for several years, Fisher describes how on the outside he was following all the rules and living like a "good Christian", but inside his life was a mess.
Until one day, he had enough and sat down to have a bible study with his cousin. He opened the bible and Luke 9:23-25 forever changed his life.
"That [scripture] was for me," said Fisher. "Because I had reached my dreams; I had money and everything I thought was cool and it just wasn't working. And I knew the answer, but I hadn't been looking for it in the right places. Through a process of just praying and getting in the word with my cousin, my life was changed. For the first time I remember thinking, this is really real. It wasn't because of my parents. It wasn't because I was supposed to be in Church. But it became real to me and it didn't happen overnight, but slowly God changed me on the inside."
"It wasn't religion anymore. It was a real relationship. And it was awesome. I finally figured out that it wasn't about just performing. It's about just accepting His love. In spite of our failures and mistakes, the love of the Father is unconditional.
Watch Mike's whole story here in the I Am Second white chair interview:
Mike and Carrie have a shared love for Christ and it's one of the foundations of not just their marriage, but how they raise their son.
"[We want Isaiah to] have a loving heart toward people who are different," said Carrie. "Mike and I talk about teaching him how to approach everybody in a loving way, even if they're not the same, and to try to say, 'You know what? God loves them, so it should be my job to do my best to love them as well.' "
Not only to Carrie and Mike want to instill a love for God in their son's heart, but also a love for God's people — the Church community.
"We want to go to church, not just for lessons and learning, but also to have a community and be surrounded by people who are just trying to raise their kids up good. Keeping everything as loving as possible, you know?" said Underwood.
Mike Fisher is a great example of a godly husband and father and it takes a constant reliance on the grace of God to keep us from falling and redeem us from ourselves. Thankfully, Mike surrendered to the change that God did inside of him and our world is forever changed by his and his wife's lives.
Thank you Mike and Carrie for sharing the Good News with others through your stories. If you're encouraged by Mike's testimony, please share!

I mapped my domain to a wordpress that I can't remember the login or password for...
I had an email issue and all my emails - including my registration emails, were deleted.
The blog I need help with is wwwdotlazuliinteriorsdotcom.wordpress.com.
It seems you're currently logged into WordPress.com, but you don't have any domain mapped to your blog. Could you please describe your problem in more detail?
Thank you.
yes - it makes me sound like an absolute ditz... but here goes...
I set up an account nearly two weeks ago after I purchased a domain name elsewhere.
I mapped my domain name, exited wordpress and left it for a week.
I kind of forgot about it...
in the mean time, my mail box exceeded its quota and I deleted heaps of emails - including the regsitration emails from wordpress... I also deleted my trash can - Mac user...
When I tried to log in again to see if my domain name was mapped - I could not remember by username or password... nor did wordpress remember my email.
So I re-registered and started again.
This time wordpress says my domain is mapped to another wordpress blog... so I looked through my back details and I did in fact pay for the original domaim mapping... so its out there - I just can't access and I can't find anyone who can help me access it...
I see. The domain lazuliinteriors.com is mapped to lazuliinteriors.wordpress.com, which is owned by a different account, other than 'gracelazuli', registered under your @hopeuc.com mail account.
If you don't have access to your account or forgot the password, you can request a new password over here.
Please follow the instructions carefully. You'll receive two separate emails during the reset process, so make sure you read them both. If you don't receive the emails right away, check your spam folders as well. The confirmation emails can get caught in them sometimes :)
THANKYOU - you are awesome!!
However - I updated my password, logged into that account - and its an account I had a year ago...
I tried to map the domain to it and it said that the domain is mapped elsewhere...
Actually that's not the correct account. Do you perhaps have another @hopeuc.com e-mail address? Please try using that to reset the account's password.
hmmm... I actually don't have another HopeUC address - my husband does, but he has his own blog...
is there anyway I can get taht email address?? or prove who I am so I can get it??
I'm sorry, we can't give out such account information. The domain links to the http://lazuliinteriors.wordpress.com/ blog, maybe that rings a bell? :)
OK - update...
I've remembered the password and username for this account - I've even logged into it... I go to match the domain... and it says that its already registered to another blog... thing is, I bought this domain 2 weeks ago - I know I own it, I just can't get to it...
Are you sure you logged into the right account? if so, you should be able to go to https://lazuliinteriors.wordpress.com/wp-admin/paid-upgrades.php?page=domains . Here you can see that http://lazuliinteriors.com/ is set as the primary domain.
Feel free to contact us if you have any other questions.
Hi - I have logged into all three of my accounts and I can't see it listed there.
My accounts are:

Can you please tell me how I can get to this website... do you need any proof of purchase from me??
This is quite urgent for me.

Squint a bit and modern footie games are like watching a match on the telly. Only now you get to be that England player who mysteriously forgets how to take penalties during international competitions!
It wasn't always this way. Early football games were simplistic. And while the industry gradually doubled down on TV-style realism, it occasionally veered off into experimental (and often more entertaining and compelling) territory.
Here, then, are tonight's highlights, from four decades of home gaming…
1. NASL Soccer (1979)
During the 1970s, every sports game was a riff on Pong, only with someone having scrawled 'squash' or 'soccer' on the box. Then NASL Soccer for Intellivision arrived with a scrolling pitch and dinky players running about. Jerky movement and static teammates may fail to impress today, but in 1979, this was a huge improvement over two bats and a square ball.
2. International Soccer (1983)
Home computing technology evolved rapidly, leading to the first truly great footy game: International Soccer on the C64. Chunky players battled it out in a 7-a-side competition for a cup (apparently awarded by a hovering woman). Players could, oddly, head the ball half the length of the field – a bug left in because the programmer thought it was funny.
3. Kick Off (1989)
Side-on footy games now reign supreme, but top-down titles briefly dominated in the 16-bit era. Kick Off on the Amiga was the first standout. A huge departure from everything that had come before, it had players zooming around as if hopped up; and the ball — no longer glued to a player's feet — pinged about with merry abandon. Suddenly, every older football game seemed very boring.
4. Sensible Soccer (1992)
What Kick Off began, Sensible Soccer refined, the development team infusing into the game how you imagined football to be, rather than what it looked like on the telly. The zoomed-out viewpoint showed loads of the pitch, allowing for silky-smooth passing and shooting. Sequel SWOS added 15,000 leagues, thereby being the first footy title to comprehensively acknowledge the entire world's existence. Still lauded today, SWOS's pinball-meets-kickabout larks will forever remain the pinnacle of the genre for anyone over 35.
5. FIFA International Soccer (1994)
The first FIFA was an oddball, experimenting with an isometric viewpoint. And calling it realistic is a stretch, given the stiff gameplay. But it's a milestone for what came later (i.e. FIFA's total dominance of the genre), and even this early effort dabbled with clever, nuanced controls. Just don't mention the goalies, who'd merrily pelt a goal kick directly at a lurking opposing player, resulting in a rebound and a goal — the idiots.
6. International Superstar Soccer (1994)
The series that would eventually morph into FIFA rival PES also debuted in 1994. International Superstar Soccer was the better game. The visuals were smart and there were loads of moves to learn, including charges and feints. And despite occasionally requiring 'finger Twister', ISS retained an arcade sensibility that ensured matches were accessible, fast and furious.
7. Virtua Striker (1994)
Over in the arcades, developers in the mid-1990s still had way more power to play with than those working on home consoles. Sega's Virtua Striker took advantage with 3D player models and TV-like camerawork, getting you closer to the action. And being an arcade game, it was very much about speed — there aren't too many boring nil-nil draws in the world of Virtua Striker.
8. Actua Soccer (1995)
From 'virtua' to 'actua', football games hoofed another shot towards realism with motion-captured players and the kind of complex swooping 3D camerawork that was unthinkable on home systems just a few years earlier. We're not sure it ended up much 'reala', though, what with its 'zombie' players and a commentator randomly reading from a list of cliches. (On second thoughts, that second bit is bang on the money.)
9. Super Mario Strikers/Mario Smash Football (2005)
While everyone else became preoccupied figuring out how to make players' bootlaces 43 per cent more photo-realistic, Nintendo valiantly injected the kind of speed and madness not seen in footy games since the days of SWOS. Cartoon critters pelted a ball about, unleashing combos and using power-ups to hinder opponents in a manner that's definitely not cricket. Or even football. But it was a very special bonkers kind of fun.
10. Pro Evolution Soccer 5 (2005)
Much like Liverpool in the 1980s, Pro Evo enjoyed a period at the very top (at least critically) that couldn't last. The peak was Pro Evo 5, a game that boasted proper teams and names, and a mix of 'arcade' and realism during play, devoid of the stodginess and slightly dull over-polished nature that sometimes afflicts more modern fare.
11. Score! World Goals (2012)
There were many efforts to bring console-style footy to mobile, but none felt truly optimised for touch control and quick gaming sessions. But then Score! rethought footy games for smartphones. Rather than play entire matches, you draw paths on the screen to recreate classic goals from throughout the ages. Not something you'd stick at for a full 90 minutes, but perfect for a spare 90 seconds.
Super sub: FIFA 16 (2015)
You can set your watch by FIFA's release schedule. The latest entry is the most realistic yet, with only the slightest hint of zombie about the players. And now there are (finally) women in the mix, too, along with improvements and enhancements to everything from transfers to the interface. It's hugely impressive, but even so, we'd unleash our finest Mexican wave if someone would have another crack at Sensible Soccer. Here's hoping…

Big Picture Gets Creative for Creation Station
Feb 16, 2011 by staci wright
Along with their move to a new location, The Creation Station wanted a new look. They describe their store as full of whimsy, personality and spunk; therefore, we delivered a logo and signage design based on these elements while also keeping in mind their primarily female target audience. Additionally, they wanted a way to communicate with their customers on a regular basis, so we created a template for them on our nifty e-newsletter system. Their account access allows them to set up/manage multiple distribution lists, send out information via email, conduct surveys, and track the success of each mailing quickly and cost-effectively.
If you are in the Tifton area, stop by Creation Station's new location on 2nd Street. Also visit them on Facebook!

Some of the other options available included a push button radio, power steering, power windows and white wall tires.

Scooter Braun and Dr. Luke are out. Next up: Harry Connick Jr.
The Hollywood Reporter said Connick Jr. is now in the running for the third judge's spot on "American Idol," joining Jennifer Lopez and Keith Urban.
The website reported that Fox officials wanted to add an industry professional to the mix rather than another celebrity and were initially cool to the idea of Connick. Sources also told the site that Fox is reluctant to add another woman to the mix, given the friction last season between Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj, which didn't play well with the show's key older female demographic.
Fox declined to comment on any aspect of "Idol" business.
Luke's deal unraveled last week, when he reportedly realized the show would demand too much of his time. His day job is at Sony Music, where he heads the imprint label Kemosabe.
Another obstacle was that Universal Music Group, a rival of Sony, has the recording rights to "American Idol" artists. Sony execs weren't thrilled at the idea of Luke helping a rival company (they had already let Luke produce Katy Perry's latest record for Universal).
Connick Jr. has appeared on the Fox reality series many times as a mentor to the contestants. He was also a guest judge during season 12.
"It's a fun show. It's been talked about before, who knows what'll happen in the future," Connick Jr. told E! News. "What I've done thus far on the show has been really fun, so I've had a great time. I think you need to be completely honest, and I think you need to be diplomatic. I think there's no reason to be mean, but it is called being a judge. You have to judge. That's what you do."

After the PlayStation 3 owners got the chance to buy the new Onslaught mode add-on for Battlefield Bad Company 2 because the Xbox 360 version had experienced some sort of a delay, word reaches us that Xbox 360 owners will be able to purchase and download the Onslaught mode starting later today.
While our sources are not clear on what the exact nature of the issue was, all we know is that a delay is a delay. The Onslaught mode can be purchased for 800 Microsoft Points, or $10 if you are keeping track. According to our sources, despite the positive news about the arrival of Onslaught for the Xbox 360, DICE continues to examine and talk internally about the possibility of bringing the Onslaught mode to the PC and how they would go about doing it.
It seems there are still a lot more questions than answers as far as the possibility of Onslaught coming to the PC version of BFBC2, but right now most PC players would just be happy with a new update.

Gardaí mistakenly release man who went on to murder his mother
12/08/2014 - 19:23:47Back to Ireland Home
A man who murdered his mother was mistakenly released from custody three weeks before the attack, a judge has revealed.
Celyn Eadon, 22, stabbed his mother Noreen Kelly to death in a frenzied killing at their home in Derrycrieve, Islandeady, Castlebar Co Mayo on March 9, 2011.
The drug user, who the court heard had begun abusing solvents as young as 10 and had gone through a profound personality change after suffering a serious beating aged 12, was jailed for life.
Three weeks before the attack on his mother, he appeared at Castlebar District Court on a theft charge after being arrested on a bench warrant for outstanding road traffic offences.
Eadon should have been held in custody after the February 16, 2011 hearing.
Inspector of Prisons Judge Michael Reilly was called in to examine the case three years ago and revealed today the killer had been unable to post bail when in court on that day.
Despite an order for his remand and paperwork being completed by court staff, Eadon walked from the courthouse.
He was arrested on March 11, 2011 after his mother was stabbed to death at the family home.
His trial heard that he had been hallucinating in the days before the attack and he had started fires in the house.
The court also heard that his mother had thrown a bag believed to have drugs in it into the fire the evening before she died.
A number of gardaí involved in the case were disciplined over the mistaken release following an internal investigation by a chief superintendent.
But the force's headquarters declined to comment further on the action taken saying: "An Garda Síochána does not comment on the outcome of internal disciplinary procedures.
"An Garda Síochána awaits the outcome of the GSOC examination into Garda practice, policy and procedure in relation to dealing with persons who are committed to custody on remand by a court."
Judge Reilly said that former Garda commissioner Martin Callinan accepted from an early stage that the correct remand documentations had been filed by court staff on February 16, 2011.
His report found that the proper procedures were followed in the court.
On the back of the mistaken release, the judge revealed that the Courts Service devised a new protocol for the preparation, checking and issuing of warrants in provincial district courts.
"I am satisfied that the protocols now in operation reflect best practice for the preparation, checking and issuing of warrants," the judge said.
"The Courts Service is to be complimented for its proactive and sensible approach in this matter."
Judge Reilly revealed that he could not examine the role of gardaí involved in the remand hearing further as his inquiry was non-statutory, while internal disciplinary action against officers was statutory.
The Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission (GSOC) confirmed it has been asked to investigate the policy, practice and procedure of the handling of remand prisoners in the courts.
The inquiry began in April, but it is not expected to be complete for at least 18 months.
It is only the second time GSOC has commenced an inquiry of this kind into policy, practice and procedure under section 106 of the Garda Síochána Act.
The first was into the fixed charged penalty system and led to a report in 2009 which subsequently led to massive controversy in the force over the widespread wiping of penalty points by officers.

MUSKOGEE, Okla. (AP) -- A plane crash in east Muskogee has left one person dead.
Police say the plane crashed about 1:30 Monday afternoon in a vacant lot and killed a Tennessee man who was piloting it.
Officials say the man was the only person on board. His name hasn't been released.
Deputy Police Chief Johnny Teehee says the plane was a two-seat aircraft made from a kit.
Walter Kirk says he heard a sound like an airplane trying to rev its engine. As he walked to the front of his house he saw a blur, then heard a crash and saw a flash of light.
