Mod Review on Aug 13th, 2011
It's not about shooting or stunning because of great level design. The fact which makes this mod so great is the narrator and the idea of course. But I think the mod would'nt be so good without this great speaker, he seems to be professional.
Well done, I've enjoyed quite every ending
Game Review on Jun 20th, 2011
I really enjoyed this game. A fullscreen support is missing and it doesn't look like a triple A- title but it contains new gameplay elements which you haven't seen in other games.
Mod Review on Mar 29th, 2011 - 8 people agree
This mod fits into the half- life universer very well. The level design is good and the fact that a flashlight is missing can sometimes scare the hell out of you. The gameplay is various and the mod has diffrent locations (indoor level as well as outdoor level). Over all it's a very nice mod which entertains you for 1-2 hours.
Mod Review on Mar 7th, 2011 - 6 people agree 28 people don't
The house is very interesting and shows potential but this will be go lost after starting the mission. The level design of the mission is bad and boring. Also the story isn't motivating.
It's a shame, after a few minuets in the house I touhgt this mod will rock but after starting the mission I became disapointed. It looks like the dev put two diffrent mods in one. The house has riddles and is very mysterious with some horror elements. The mission just lame, shooting this, running to this and then shooting again. Walking around and looking on flat grey walls or rooms without sense, which couldn't even exist in real world.
Mod Review on Feb 12th, 2011 - 1 person agrees 5 people don't
The reason I've downloaded this mod was because it's totally overrated. So I make it quick, because this mod dosn't deserves too many words about it. The mapping is horrible, atmosphere bad and the story is missing.
Mod Review on Feb 9th, 2011 - 1 person doesn't
I'm disappointed. I though this mod could be something big but it isn't. The story, gameplay and the level design are average. There are some parts which made fun but they're very short-handed.
Mod Review on Feb 5th, 2011 - 3 people agree
Comatose is a well made, professional looking mod. The beginning is a little bit weird and I' ve needed more then one try coming trough the mod. But I was never at the point to give up. After all I made it to the end and I'm glad to see a sequel.
Don't forsake, activate your brain and enjoy!
Mod Review on Jan 6th, 2011 - 2 people agree
Return is a mod with a lot of new stuff and fresh ideas. As I've seen the room from the vision, I've been reminded on F.E.A.R. ( and I love FEAR). I wished there where some more horror parts.
The mod was still great, thanks for sharing

STRATACACHE, a provider of scalable digital signage, content distribution and enterprise video acceleration technologies, today unveiled a new, interactive retail journey empowering consumers to become more involved in the shopping experience.
Unveiled at Retail's BIG Show at New York's Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in booth #629, STRATACACHE's Connected Journey features interactive ways for retailers to inspire consumers during the path-to-purchase, according to a company press release.
From digital signage to leading-edge interactive technology, each experience provides an opportunity for retailers to attract and engage shoppers, drive product awareness, activate shoppers and strengthen customer loyalty, the company said.
"Retailers not only need to search for moments of inspiration to sell to customers, but rather to put together a series of moments that takes the shopper on an entire journey from the very first moment they connect with a retailer," said Russell Young, SVP of Interactive and Mobile Experiences at STRATACACHE.
The Connected Journey includes STRATACACHE's Digital Play experience, designed to engage shoppers and extend their dwell time via interactive, gestural-based messages. In addition, STRATACACHE's Connected Assistant allows retailers to connect consumers with store associates via mobile for increased conversion and customer satisfaction. STRATACACHE's Responsive Merchandising experience connects physical to digital in an interactive display that inspires shoppers to engage with display merchandise. Allowing consumers to engage with retail products through browser-based connections, these connected experiences support a BYOD approach to in-store engagement.

Whatever. :)
in Food
What the title says... we're going to talk about "Whatever", today. Pop by and see what's up. ;)
in Religion
Welcome to, "Your Place"! If this is your first time to look at our show, we want you to know that we sometimes take the other side of an issue to get people to think outside box. We always look at all issues based on our relationship with God, but it is not by chance that this show is called "Your Place". At the end of each show we open up the mics to comments or questions. Just push one on your phone and you'll be identified by the last four digits of your phone number. Hopefully you will get used to some of the antics of Wild Bill. For example the songs selections that he uses to start our show! Tonight our guest speaker is Bro. Paul Mooney. You are going to hear a lot of repetition of the word, "whatever". To adopt a phrase because it sounds cute can be a self proclaimed prophecy if we are not careful. Of course some people make the choice of this being their heartbeat. Two scriptures come to mind, "From the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks" & "As a person speaks, that is who they are". This is not an exact quote of the scripture but I hope you get the point. It does not matter if an attitude is from our heart, or words that we proclaim. Because either one will affect the other! Bro. Mooney taught this lesson with the title, "Dinner At Jezebels" . One point I hope you catch is that no matter what attitude we have, this does not change consequences of our actions! We look forward to your comments or questions and hope that you enjoy the show.

in Religion
In the context of so much scripture throughout the bible, Romans 14:23 contains a principle which must be discerned for the fullness of its very important massive implications. Shall a man be justified before YAH by whatever seems wise after his own imaginations? Shall a man be justified before YAH by anything that is of the unstably grossly conflicting and polluted devices of this world? (Romans 6, Hebrews 10:26-31, Yacob/James 1:1-9>-17, 2Kepa/ Peter 3:14-18, Colossians1:23-2:16)
Rom 14:23 But he who doubts/ double-mindedly vacillates, is condemned in his lack of instability .. For WHATEVER is NOT of FAITH is SIN. (Romans 9:26-11:27)
Discern the very precious gem of truth contained within this verse. Blessed are they who in finding the TRUTH will NOT turn back the rebellious way! (Isaiah 50:1-5) Blessed is he who when TRUTH is found, CAN BELIEVE! For in perfect FAITH as revealed from YAH, there is only UNITY! Indeed! None of the conflicting contentions wrought of worldly misconceits. They who are true to the GIFT of FAITH that comes from YAH, are made STEADFAST to overcome this WORLD after the PURE and PERFECT WILL of the ONE MOST HIGH! The diverse MISruling lawLESS entities of this world are NOT of THE FAITH which reveals REVERENCE for DIVINE LAW! To set HIS people FREE, YAH must prove FOOLISH every manner of FALSEHOOD men have trusted. Discerning the EXCEEDING LAW of YAH, WE are NEVER to turn back, NEVER to FORGET what we MUST know to GROW in the GRACE and KNOWLEDGE of YAH!

Hartford Court Chardonnay Russian River 2010
Hartford Court
- California
- United States
- Sonoma Valley
- Russian River Valley
2010 saw extremely high quality viticulture in many parts of the world, with an exceptionally long and hot summer providing huge benefits for wineries across many countries, especially in the southern hemisphere. The northern hemisphere and Europe saw something of a cooler summer and flowering period, but this was by no means as disastrous as it could have been. France, especially, had a fantastic year in 2010, with the world renowned Burgundy region proclaiming that their white wines of this year are ones to look out for, and despite yields being relatively small across much of the country, the quality was exceptionally high. Spain, too, received some cooler weather, but Rioja and the rest of central Spain are hailing 2010 as a very good year indeed, again as a result of smaller, finer yields. California also received similar climatic conditions, but again, wineries are highly positive about the overall effect this had on their produce, as the slightly challenging conditions resulted in smaller yields of much elegance and distinction. 2010 was really Australia's year, and in South Australia and across the Mornington Peninsula, Chardonnay vines produced good yields with a lower sugar level than in previous years. As such, the majority of South Australian white wines from 2010 are superb, and packed full of character. Shiraz also had a great year, and most Australian wineries have been proclaiming 2010 one of the great vintages. Both the Argentinian and Chilean wine industries benefited from some ideal climatic conditions this year, and are reportedly ecstatically pleased with the fact that their 2010 wines ended up with lower alcohol levels, and were beautifully balanced wines packed full of flavor.
Of all the white wine grape varietals, surely the one which has spread the furthest and is most widely appreciated is the Chardonnay. This green skinned grape is now grown all over the Old and New Worlds, from New Zealand to the Americas, from England to Chile, and is one of the first varietals people think of when considering white wine grapes. Perhaps this is because of its huge popularity which reached a peak in the 1990s, thanks to new technologies combining with traditional methods to bring the very best features out of the Chardonnay grape, and allow its unique qualities to shine through. Most fine Chardonnay wines use a process known as malolactic fermentation, wherein the malic acids in the grape juice are converted to lactic acids, allowing a creamier, buttery nature to come forward in the wine. No grape varietal is better suited to this process than Chardonnay, which manages to balance these silky, creamy notes with fresh white fruit flavors beautifully.
It isn't difficult to see how California became one of the world's most important, successful and influential wine regions. Since the first vines were planted in the state by Spanish pioneers in the 18th century, the region has made the most of its ideal climatic conditions, which range from hot, dry and arid to windswept and cool, for vineyard cultivation and wine production. Today, California has almost half a million acres under vine, and hundreds of independent and well established wineries dotted across its vast wine-making areas. Californian wines range from the traditional, and those emulating fine Old World wines, to the experimental and unique, and it is the home to many of the world's most exciting and trailblazing wineries producing excellent bottles for the global market.
Whilst there are several strains of native grape varietals in the United States, it was the introduction of the European species which prompted the country to begin producing wines on a large scale. Over the past few centuries, experimentation and cross-breeding has produced great successes in regards to the quality and suitability of the fruit grown in states such as California, Oregon, Washington and New York, and the past few decades have seen New World wines from the United States reach much higher standards. Arguably the finest United States wines have always come out of California, where the climate and terrroir is most suitable for fine wine production. The masterful blending of classic grape varietals such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, amongst others including Syrah and Chardonnay, have had world beating results in recent years, prompting many to suggest that there has never been a better time for buying and drinking United States wines.
The Valley of the Moon, as Sonoma Valley is widely known, has been one of the United States' most important and widely recognized wine regions for well over a century now, and upholds a firm belief in quality over quantity when it comes to the produce that is made in the dozens of wineries which make up the region. Helped by blazing Californian sunshine alongside mineral rich volcanic soils and geothermal springs, the grape varietals which grow in Sonoma Valley end up being packed full of fascinating flavors and aromas which are then transferred to the bottle. The past decade has seen the region expand more than ever before, and with more favorable weather conditions and a growing reputation for excellence, the wineries of Sonoma Valley are set to continue doing what they do best: making high quality, flavorful and characterful American wines.

I know everyone hates me putting this up as it really has no enforceable meaning, but it kinda' does cover the old rules-of-thumb on the Lake in addition to my personal (non-binding) understanding of the Recreation & Park Dept. signs which may or may not be accurate.
Most of it is common sense when you come down to it; the extreme east and west ends of the Lake are too small for a big go-fastie to maneuver and loud boats shouldn't be running on the north shore because of the noise that reaches the residents of Fulton Street beyond the tree line. --------------------------------------------- OK, Quick refresher course: the applicable law from the Park Code section of the San Francisco Municipal Code... (plus the posting on the signs). SEC. 3.02. SIGNS TO BE OBEYED. No person shall willfully disobey the notices, prohibitions or directions on any sign posted by the Recreation and Park Commission or the Recreation and Park Department. (Added by Ord. 603-81, App. 12/18/81) also SEC. 4.01. - DISORDERLY CONDUCT. No person shall, in any park without permission of the Recreation and Park Department: (d) Carry or use a model airplane which is powered by liquid fuel or designed to be used with such fuel; And they just added the " No Smoking" sign... SF Health Code, Article 19I Older(original) sign up a tree, north (sail) side of Spreckles Lake... "Model Yacht Facility No Fishing Allowed Power boats on south side of lake only between 10am and 1pm Tuesday, Thursday & Saturday only" and the new signage in a couple of places near the power 'pit area' on the south side of the Lake reads...

What is the rule of thumb when one operator damages another's boat? I would assume that a profuse apology would be a bare minimum as a start, and an offer of compensation.
Latest blog entry: A philosophical take on the hobby...
Aug 07, 2011, 11:51 PM | |||
That being said I want to mull over some of the earlier posts before making more comments... but, I'll be back. PS. A large reason that the Club holds power events on Saturday sometimes is so we can give time to people coming in from out of town, and the Club has had folks coming from as far away as Vancouver Island for contests, so that they can participate and play on Saturday and then drive home on Sunday. The Club is NOT trying to nudge the gas skippers or anyone else off the Lake. |
Aug 08, 2011, 02:00 AM | |
After reading what has happened at the lake recently, I am mortified that some one like that would not run their boat according to the rules of the lake. A person like that makes all gas boaters look bad. I am sorry to hear that the beautiful sail boat was seriously damaged. I really enjoyed running my boat at Sprekles and looked forward to continue running there. It was great to get out and hang out with people of similar interests. But I am now seriously considering not running there anymore. I have been petitioning to find another location for gas boats. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the lake and the group that ran there on Saturday's, but I am kind of wondering what other rules will be enforced if any. Yes, I run gas boats, and I enjoy racing them. But I do not want to be classified as a thug because of one irresponsible jerk. Julio, I can see it from your stand point as us gassers are very limited in running. The main reason I did not make it this Saturday was due to the fact that I knew it was the steam up and felt as though the gassers were getting pushed from their very limited time. Fremont is now looking better and better. Just like everyone else I have spent a significant amount on my boats and would not like to see someone who has no regard for anyone else use their boat as a battering ram. If I see that person, I hope his boat sinks the middle of the lake.
Aug 08, 2011, 02:37 AM | |
Alright guys... chill! Put the frequency flags on the ground and step back, away from the edge of the Lake...
This is about what ONE GUY DID and what he continued to do afterwards. This is NOT about gas boats or gas boaters. Given the advances in electrically driven boats, it could just as easily have been a brushless boat running on LiPos! So, I say again, this is NOT about gas or the people who run gas. The Club, the Irregulars and everyone else who runs on the Lake form a community of 'stakeholders' in the Lake no matter what we sail or don't sail and we all need to work together to promote a safe and uncontentious environment play in. That's what this is about, trying to make sure everybody has their fun, keeps on having their fun and how we all manage to make that happen. What happened on Saturday, was the act of one thoughtless person and, like Mister Lego, I too question whither there was a twitchy servo and I was looking at the tunnel when it hit the Constitution. My take - Twitchy servo or not - he was too fast and on way to close a heading, like a motorcyclist who threads around and between the cars on the freeway doing 90. Wouldn't have mattered if the had been outside the 50' marker either. He cut the distances too fine at too fast a pace and the 'Connie' paid for it. He was operationally outside of his envelope. Pilot Error, pure and simple. As for later powering straight in towards the Lake edge at speed and doing snap turns. One miscalculation or mistimed maneuver under the best conditions and we have an aerial egress from the lake at a substantial velocity. And this guy's boat was supposed had a "twitchy servo" or other undiagnosed and unrepaired radio malf??? Nuts! ps. He showed me his rig; a 2.4ghz, current generation with built-in servo position neutralizer / integral 'kill switch.' |

It took awhile for him to contact the skipper and apologize and When i heard him say something about the servos I wondered the same thoughts.
Although he did make me take my boats out of the lake when he started running again, i had a great time |
Aug 08, 2011, 03:43 AM | ||
hey! an idea! Maybe we could tie them law/rule evading people to a few concrete masonry units and toss them in the lake!? no... im kidding... don't do that guys. |

Kabul: Foreign troops in Afghanistan have
been ordered to carry out night-time raids on people`s homes
only when absolutely necessary and only in the company of
Afghan soldiers, NATO said on Friday.
In a directive that attempts to deal with one of the most
contentious issues facing foreign forces in the war against
insurgents, the head of US and NATO troops in the country has
ordered changes to how "night raids" are conducted.
US General Stanley McChrystal has not banned the raids,
believing they are "a viable and advantageous option," a
statement issued by NATO`s International Security Assistance
Force (ISAF) said.
But his directive concedes they are a source of
resentment among ordinary Afghans towards foreign forces
trying to eliminate the Taliban threat and end a war that has
been intensifying for more than eight years.
The raids, mainly on people`s homes, are now to be
conducted with Afghan forces in the lead, women are to be
searched by women, any property seized is to be recorded and
any property damaged is to be compensated for.
More than 121,000 foreign US and NATO troops are in
Afghanistan under McChrystal`s command, with that number set
to rise to 150,000 by August to speed the end of the war and
begin a troop drawdown.

If you look in teh generals folder of your my documents you will find text based config files that can be altered by hand to set resolutions and so on |

I'm wondering if it's possible to get a handle on running instances of a given class. The particular issue that triggered this was an application that doesn't exit nicely because of a number of running threads.
Yes, I know you can daemonize the theads, and they won't then hold up the application exit. But it did get me to wondering if this was possible. The closest thing I can is the classloaders (protected!) findLoadedClass, although you'd have to run through your own classloader to do this.
On a related note, is this how profiling tools manage to track object handles? by running through their own custom classloaders? or is there some nice tricky way that I'm not seeing?

iRing Bluetooth Connectivity Would Control i-Devices
iRing Bluetooth Connectivity Would Control i-Devices
The real question is, who doesn't wish they could control their iPod or iPhone with a tiny ring? When I came up with the idea for iGems I never considered how great it would be if the jewelry actually manipulated my Apple devices. Of course, I'm not a designer like Victor Soto, who came up with the stylish design for the iRing.
The iRing allows you to control playback and volume on any of your Apple media devices and features a bright OLED status display with touch-sensitive function strip, and a rechargeable battery life of up to 2 days. It's just a concept, but I love it.

I like it. The question is...how much do they want us to pay for something like that?

pretty cool! but one question, how does this work if you have an ipod and an iphone on at the same time? could you control both? hmm..

I would so get this, we keep losing our Apple TV remote in the bedroom, this way I'd always have control of the TV (insert evil laugh here Bwahahaha)

love it! so geeky kewl. i'd wear it & be happy if it was a wi-fi finder like the keychain kensington makes.

This is going to be a hot item but Price is what I'm concerned with..most blue tooth items are already 50 dollars..what's the ring going to set us back
7 years
so cool! i love just th efact that it has the blue apple on it - let alone that it controls ipods!
7 years
This would come in handy when I'm walking around campus with my ipod at the bottom of my bag.

Very cool...but how do you control it...using mind waves or something...very mystical... :ROTFL:

October is National Disability Awareness Month. The goal of this national campaign is to raises awareness about disability employment issues and celebrate the many and varied contributions of America's workers with disabilities. The theme for 2013 is "Because We Are EQUAL to the Task."
Two national companies are working together to provide opportunities for individuals with disabilities and barriers to employment while also benefiting the environment. DISH has partnered with Reworx, an electronics recycling program that employs individuals with disabilities and those who face barriers to traditional hiring. Reworx will recycle the pay-TV provider's retired satellite receivers and related electronics in an extension of DISH's existing sustainability operations that last year processed more than 26 million pounds of materials.
"Reworx not only furthers DISH's sustainability endeavors by keeping nearly all received materials out of landfills, but it also yields another critical byproduct: opportunity," said Jim LaRocque, DISH SVP of Service. "Reworx provides much-needed second chances by putting individuals to work. Steady employment can be a motivating force that prompts a sense of purpose, feelings of independence and, in many cases, helps staff rebuild their lives."
Programs like this can provide an opportunity. And for those with disabilities or facing barriers, an opportunity to prove themselves is all they need. Kathy Martinez, assistant secretary of labor for disability employment policy, is proof of that.
"When I was growing up, many people doubted what I could do just because I was blind," said Martinez in a Department of Labor statement promoting National Disability Employment Month. "But because I had people in my life who instilled in me an expectation of work and showed me opportunities to be successful, I completed college and became known for what I can do. I urge all employers to benefit from the skills of workers with disabilities by giving them, including our returning veterans, a chance to show that they, too, are equal to the task."
DISH leaders echoed those words.
"DISH looks to create efficiencies that allow the company to pass savings to its customers while keeping with its goal to reduce and eliminate waste," said Mike Daniels, Reworx COO. "The responsible disposal of DISH electronics is a smart operation with a lasting environmental and, now, social impact. By recognizing this value, DISH advances its business objectives while forever impacting the lives of our people."
Kelley Ferguson, shipping and receiving coordinator at Reworx, says Reworx provides opportunities from which she believes her daughter will one day benefit.
"This company has always had a special place in my heart," said Ferguson. "I have a special needs daughter so I really believe in their cause. One day I feel sure my daughter will be in the program, so she'll be able to conquer… in the workforce."
Reworx employees are supported by nonprofit Nobis Works' staff who provide ongoing training to help achieve continued professional success. Last year, Reworx employed 67 individuals, resulting in an economic impact of more than $961,000 in taxes paid and reductions in public assistance. This social enterprise has also been recognized for excellence in operations, becoming the first Georgia-based electronics recycler to achieve the EPA's prestigious R2 (Responsible Recycling) certification.
While DISH's partnership with Reworx is new, the pay-TV provider has long been committed to sustainable practices in the way it utilizes and disposes of equipment. Prior to recycling a satellite receiver, DISH works to maximize use with an average receiver lifespan of seven years. Once a set-top box is no longer viable, partners like Reworx sort, breakdown, recycle and resell materials retrieved from the receiver like plastics and precious metals. In 2012, DISH recycled 1.2 million pounds of plastic and 4.45 million pounds of steel. DISH also recycles materials such as cables, cardboard, remote controls, batteries and PC boards.

Prospects for a weak economy and continued high prices for crude oil and petroleum products are expected to cut U.S. petroleum demand by nearly 500,000 barrels per day on average for 2008, according to DOE's Energy Information Administration (EIA). The EIA's Short-Term Energy Outlook, released last week, notes that the decline in U.S. oil consumption for the first half of the year was the largest in the past 26 years. Petroleum consumption dipped strongly for the first 5 months of 2008, falling 900,000 barrels per day below the consumption levels during the same period in 2007, but the consumption drop narrowed to 400,000 barrels per day in June and July. The EIA expects U.S. oil consumption to continue falling in 2009, dropping 120,000 barrels per day below the 2008 average. The EIA's This Week in Petroleum notes that the average monthly U.S. petroleum consumption has been lower than the year before for 12 consecutive months, a trend not seen since August 1991, when a weak economy dampened petroleum demand.
The latest statistics from the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Highway Administration shows one reason why petroleum demand is dropping: for the past 8 months, U.S. residents have been driving less than they did the year before. In fact, the FHWA's June report on traffic volume trends found that the vehicle miles traveled in the United States dropped by 42.1 billion miles for the first half of the year, a 2.8 percent decrease. Of those six months, the largest drop was recorded in June, with a 4.7 percent decrease. The statistics show the greatest drop (5.4 percent) in the south Atlantic region, while the Northeast experienced the smallest drop (3.9 percent). While U.S. drivers may be taking a number of actions to reduce their driving miles, such as limiting their driving for vacations, the American Public Transportation Association also notes that first-quarter use of public transportation use increased by about 3.5 percent, or about 88 million trips. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the seasonally adjusted Consumer Price Indices for energy use have increased sharply for the past 3 months, including a 4 percent increase in July.

Jacobitism - British History in Perspective (Paperback)
Format: | Paperback 176 pages |
Not in stock
Usually despatched in 2-3 weeks
Delivered FREE
in the UK
The last genuine rebellion on British soil, the Jacobite rising of 1745 forms one of the greatest "what ifs" of British history. If Bonnie Prince Charlie's troops had defeated the forces of George II, it is fair to say that the subsequent course of the country's history would have been very different. This volume is a study of the Stuart dynasty's attempts to regain the thrones of England, Scotland and Ireland in the 18th century. It provides not only a history of the Jacobite cause and the Risings but also studies of Jacobite culture, the financing of Jacobitism, the Jacobite diaspora and Jacobitism and nationalism, as well as a critical review of the major changes in Jacobite scholarship this century.

Violent Deaths: Century-wide Comparison
By Sue Hunter Weir
119th in a Series
2014 almost 4x more per capita and guns used over twice as often
Minneapolis closed out 2014 with 32 murders of record*. The number is low in contrast to many other recent years but it is still much higher than the murder rate of 100 or so years ago. In 1912, there were ten murders in Minneapolis—four of the victims are buried in Pioneers and Soldiers Memorial Cemetery. Four of those ten murders, including two of the people buried in Pioneers and Soldiers, were never solved.
There was nothing particularly clever about how any of the murders were committed. Only one of the ten deaths was planned in advance, and even then the murderer made a terrible mistake. On February 10th, someone left poisoned candy on the doorstep of Simon O'Malley, the intended target. Unfortunately, O'Malley gave a piece to his three-year-old-neighbor, Bonnie Ready, and she died as well, a child in the wrong place at the wrong time. Their murders were never solved.
The four people buried in the cemetery are Alice Mathews, Fred Wescott, William Burke and Henry Carlson. Alice's case, like Simon O'Malley's, demonstrates how little police knew about forensics at the time. Police did some fingerprinting and chemists could analyze and identify certain toxic substances but that was about the limit of the science available to help police solve crimes. Even when they were convinced they knew who the murderer was, they were often unable to prove it. They were forced to rely on eyewitnesses and on confessions, neither of which proved to be particularly reliable.
Alice Mathews was strangled during a failed rape attempt on March 23, 1912. There were no obvious suspects although the police, who were under intense public and political pressure to solve the case, arrested at least half-a-dozen people and held them for varying lengths of time before concluding that they had no case against any of them. Over the next several years, one man, with a lengthy history of mental illness, repeatedly confessed to Alice's murder. Police listened to him each time even though they knew that he couldn't possibly have committed the murder. This self-confessed "killer" was determined to convince them otherwise but never succeeded.
Police believed that Fred Wescott was stabbed by Isabel Getzman, better known by her stage name, "Scotch Maggie." A witness had seen the two arguing in the back of the Rising Sun Café, which Getzman owned and where Wescott was employed as a cook. The police arrested Getzman but their case against her fell apart when their only witness disappeared.
The other two burials were for William Burke and Henry Carlson, both of whom died from skull fractures. Burke fought with a patron of the Cedar Avenue Saloon where both had been drinking. He was arrested and sentenced to five days in the workhouse, but he was sick and unable to work during his stay there. Two days after he was released his wife took him to the hospital where he died from an injury that he had received the night that he was arrested almost two weeks earlier.
Carlson died from a blow that he received from David Ploof. The two men had been at a party when they started to argue. Carlson used "vile language" about Ploof's wife. The two men encountered each other in the street the next day and the fight continued. Ploof struck Carlson who fell and hit his head. Carlson made it home under his own power but died a few hours later.
Three of the ten murders committed in 1912 involved guns. Two of those cases were domestic homicides—husbands killing their wives. In both cases, the women had left their husbands. The third case was a shooting at a party where a man was killed because he refused to hand over the ten cents that he owed to the man who killed him.
Guns were involved in 30% of the murders in 1912. At the time there were 300,000 people living in Minneapolis, and it was the country's 18th largest city. Today the city's population is 400,000 (a 25% increase). If the murder rate had increased at the same rate as the population there would have been between 12 and 13 murders in 2010. Instead there were 40, 30 of which (75%) involved guns.
Alice Mathews, Fred Wescott, William Burke and Henry Carlson are buried in unmarked graves in various locations throughout the cemetery.

Youth Explore Art, History, and Culture
Celebrating Four Years of Discovering and Creating guided by Mentor-Artists of In the Heart of the Beast Theatre called Phillips Project

HOBT Out-of-School Program History
When I first came to In the Heart of the Beast Puppet and Mask Theatre (HOBT) in 1998, as an Americorp volunteer, I was inspired by and starting working with the out-of-school programming at HOBT. Under the direction of Beth Peterson and Paul Robinson, HOBT had two out-of-school programs, Lake Street Theatre Club and the Artbus. Lake Street Theatre Club worked with elementary school youth afterschool twice a week and Artbus was a seven-week summer youth employment program for youth 14-18. Both of these programs helped youth tell their stories using puppets, masks, poetry and music. They had major impacts on the youth and the communities. The youth in Lake Street Theatre Club, mostly from the neighborhood, were drawn to flexing the muscle of their imagination and fantasy. The Artbus youth drew from stories of their lives exploring topics like teen pregnancy, peer pressure and recent immigration experiences. The Artbus performances shared these youth's stories by touring the shows around the Twin Cities. Both programs gave youth tools of expression, self-confidence and venues to share their voices. Artbus youth also mentored the Lake street Theatre Club's Summer camp following their summer tour. Coming from a past as an elementary teacher, I had not seen this kind of authentic, poetic, funky and fun opening-up and valuing of youth voices. Daily, I see youth wearing appropriate "masks" for their parents, peers and teachers. I also see youth being manipulated and being taught appropriate voices to speak in the world. I was profoundly affected to see youth turning the tables, choosing their masks and manipulating puppets and messages they found important for the world to see and hear.
After Beth Peterson's departure from HOBT in the early 2000's and many sources of funding for afterschool programs were terminated, HOBT had a hiatus from this work. In 2008, I came on board as Education Co-Director at HOBT and one of my missions was to re-start the out-of-school programming, with a redesign. Part of this work was starting the Puppet Youth Troupe, an out-of-school program during the school year for youth 9-18. Puppet Youth Troupe was extremely active from 2009-2013 as an immersive puppetry arts program where youth could explore puppetry with a long-term commitment. I also wanted to create a program doing this work with youth in our own back yard, in the Heart of the Beast, in the neighborhood, in Phillips. I started the Phillips Project in the Fall of 2010.

New Phillips Literary Magazine to Be Unveiled January 29
"The Phoenix of Phillips", a new literary magazine sponsored by the Semilla Community Arts program of St. Paul's Lutheran Church will make its debut at the Midtown Global Market on Thursday, January 29, with a program at 6 pm. The annual youth photography show of St. Paul's "We Are Midtown Phillips" will also have its opening that evening.
For the past eight years, St. Paul's Semilla program has taught mosaics, mural arts, photography, puppetry and creative writing to over 1900 people and installed 21 murals and over 50 other artistic place holders throughout the neighborhood of Phillips. Semilla means "seed" in Spanish, and it is our passion to plant seeds of hope, justice and beauty in our community.
"The Phoenix of Phillips" includes the winners of the youth poetry contest, and writing by children, teens and adults, some of whom are established writers, some of whom are publishing their first work. Writers will read from their work at the January 29 event. Read the rest of this entry »
Fresh Springs And Flowing Streams
By Peter Molenaar
It was August 30, 2010 when John T. Williams, a 50-year-old Native American woodcarver, was shot four times by a Seattle police officer. He was simply crossing the street while holding a block of wood and a pocket knife.
What year was it when Julani, a Somali neighbor, was gunned down here? True, he brandished a machete, but he was warding off demons, not attacking people. They surrounded him and then…
Yes, the long list of victims dates back to slave cargo ships, the genocide, and the inception of "free-enterprise." No, we will not "get over it."
But now fresh springs burst free from a saturated soil. Small streams combine to form rivers. "The revolution begins now!" And yes, there are countless meetings and public forums.
HIGHLIGHTS: Backyard Initiative Evaluation Report
NOTE: "Evaluation" is often considered to be something that is done AFTER a project or program has been completed. The BYI is evaluating as the work unfolds. This allows the teams doing the work of the BYI to tweak and improve in order to increase the impact of the health improvement efforts on residents of the BYI area. .
Program Evaluation and the Backyard Initiative
From the field of program evaluation, the Backyard Initiative (BYI) is seen as a community-building enterprise in which residents who live in proximity to each other have come together as a collective to act in their shared self-interest. The Initiative sees strengthening community as the means that will lead to better resident health. The Definition of Health created by residents defines health broadly, to include social, emotional, economic, spiritual, and physical conditions.
The lead agency for the Backyard Initiative is the Cultural Wellness Center (CWC), located in the heart of the seven Minneapolis neighborhoods defining the geographical region of the Backyard. From the beginning of the BYI, the Cultural Wellness Center created and supported an infrastructure, which consists of the Community Commission on Health (Commission), Citizen Health Action Teams (CHATs), and the Community Resource Body (CRB).

Klaas Financial raises funds for wounded soldiers
As a result of this past summer's Klaas Financial, Inc., Car and Bike Show to benefit the Wounded Warrior Project (WWP), Klaas Financial adviser Mike Todryk was contacted by the chapter chairman of The Vietnam Vets Motorcycle Club, Southern Wisconsin Chapter, Jake Jacobson.
Jacobson said, "The chapter wanted to support the Wounded Warriors, so we decided a check for $1,000 was the least we could do in return for the sacrifices of our soldiers, airmen, Marines and sailors, who have sacrificed so much."
Todryk indicated the Klaas Car and Bike Show has helped raise more than $1,900 made payable and sent directly to the WWP. The event has also drawn a new awareness to what WWP provides for servicemen and women.
WWP is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the health and welfare of wounded military members and their families. All contributions are tax deductible. For more about WWP, visit www.woundedwarrior.org or contact Todryk at Klaas Financial, Inc., at (815) 877-8440.
