Drew you got the wrong ship.
CITY OF MANCHESTER official number 164262 built in 1935 (Ellerman Hall Line).
28.2.1942 Torpedoed and sunk by gunfire by Japanese submarine I-153 (Nakamura), in the Indian Ocean SE of Tjilatjap, Sumatra, in position 08.16S 108.52E while sailing independently on a voyage from Pekan, Malaya, to Tjilatjap, with 6400 tons of general cargo including military stores. The Master, Capt Harry Johnson, 126 crew, 17 gunners and 13 naval signalmen were rescued by US minesweeper WHIPPOORWILL, landed at Batavia and brought to Fremantle by Dutch liner ZAANDAM. 9 crew were lost.
As a DEMS gunner your father would be recorded on the ship's last crew agreement. If you need advice on how to obtain this document just make another post.

Here is the other casualty.

Some confusion on this one, as I have three casualties listed on my website: Ellerman Line War Losses
However, some references have 6 others taken as prisoners of war.

You don't need his service number to apply for his service records if you know his date of birth.

There is no crew agreement for the year 1942 held at Kew but I presume this is because the ship sailed in 1941 and never returned to the UK in 1942. The last crew agreement will be for 1941. This will be held at Kew in piece BT 381/1608
If he served aboard another Merchant Navy ship prior to "CITY OF MANCHESTER" it may show the ship's name on the agreement.
It would be best if you are in a position to visit Kew yourself to obtain this file or get someone to photocopy it on your behalf as due to recent changes this file will cost you £45 to order online [yes, I know, a ridiculous price]. Recent changes at Kew are responsible for this madness.
Note: Drew is quite correct regarding his service record but bear in mind if he served through the war as a DEMS gunner on Merchant Navy ships it is very unlikely that these ships will be mentioned in his service records and crew agreements are the way to go. This method also has its disadvantages. However, that said, you should always start research on a serviceman with his military records.

Looking at his date of death Hugh, I'm guessing he was a PW?
I concur, Drew, and should have spotted this file held at Kew in piece BT 373/62
I wonder how many of the 6 PoW, if indeed there were 6, died. If there was more than the one already identified could there be non-comms here? Will attempt to find out more.

thanks very much for info as a gunner he was army! would he be on crews agreement?.
so i understand he was rescued by the whippoorwill and transfered to the tulsa i presume it was going to batavia .then moved on to fremantle .he was posted missing in action for about a year then sent back to england to recover he never served again after that because of injuries.
i understand there was a army unit set up to man the guns on merchant ships called the maritime royal artillery i wonder if he could have served in that.
thanks again ivor neville

It's stated there were 9 casualties. I suspect that either they were Chinese, Lascars etc or the Royal Marine Artillery men but as they don't appear as identified with the "City of Manchester" it's unlikely we will know who they were and whether they have their due CWGC recognition or not.

Yes, all crew and military gunners signed the ship's Articles coming under the Master of the vessel.
i understand there was a army unit set up to man the guns on merchant ships called the maritime royal artillery i wonder if he could have served in that.
Yes, I imagine he was Maritime Royal Artillery. DEMS were made up of RN/RM gunners, Maritime Royal Artillery gunners and there were also a few gunners from other Army regiments.
DEMS stands for Defensively Equipped Merchant Ships.
DAMS stands for Defensively Armed Merchant Ships which was the terminology used during the Great War.

Tower Hill
ROBERTS, Apprentice, GUY SMITH, S.S. City of Manchester (Liverpool). Merchant Navy. 28th February 1942. Age 21. Son of Richard Hawkins Roberts and Alice Maud Roberts, of Ainsdale, Southport, Lancashire.
TAWS, Chief Officer, STEPHEN CORNER STEPHENSON, S.S. City of Manchester (Liverpool). Merchant Navy. 3rd March 1942. Age 44. Husband of A. H. Taws, of Houston, Renfrewshire. Master Mariner, Merchant Navy
ALI AZAM, Seaman, S.S. City of Manchester (Liverpool), Indian Merchant Navy. 28 February 1942. Age 39.
Buried Jakarta War Cemetery
BURNHAM, Quartermaster, ERNEST, S.S. City of Manchester (Liverpool). Merchant Navy. 24th May 1945. Age 62.
Both Roberts & Taws are recorded as dying on the USS Tulsa from injuries sustained in the attack. Roberts is recorded as being buried ashore, but I can't decipher the handwriting to show where. Burnham is recorded in the August 1946 DASR having died as a prisoner of war at Batavia, by an unknown cause.
This would suggest to me any other PoW's possibly taken survived the war.

I read with interest about the survivors of this ship.I have a document stating that HMS Stronghold had the survivors of the City of Manchester on board and transferred them to the Zaandam. I remember my father saying someing about the Stonghold have 100 extra people on board but never elaborated on it. After that transfer the Stronghold escorted the Zaandam towards Australia however they were spotted by the Japs and were chased down. The Stronghold was sunk and only about 50 or so got off and were in Makassar for the remainder of the war.

I'm a late-comer to this thread and new to the site. I'm very interested in the story of the SS City of Manchester as I had a relative on board who was captured by the Japanese and spent over 3 1/2 years as a PoW in the Dutch East Indies. His name was Bernard Egbert Berntsen. He was an Engineer on the ship. I have his Index Card from Kew, which only records the last 15 months of his captivity. It shows Java as the place of capture and two camps where he was held - the main camp at Batavia and Malay PoW camp at Singapore. A source in Japan tells me that the lack of records for the first part of his captivity may mean he was held by the Japanese Navy at Makassar on Celebes Island. The previous post interests me very much and I would love to know more. Any information would be very much appreciated. Very best regards........Allan White.

Just seen this thread and realised I have a postcard of SS City of Manchester.
I don't know if it is the right vessel as it is undated, but it was amongst several Ellerman Line ship postcards my Grandfather had collected. He was RN before and during WW1 and worked for the Post Office in London throughout WW2 so the dates could be right. City of Manchester.jpg 148.75K 86 downloads

You might get lucky with his service record - my grandfather was also a DEMS gunner, and his record shows every ship served on.
Makes for interesting reading, and research as well (started in 1982 and still finding information!!!); it gets rather addictive - maybe I need to find a WW2RA group to keep me on the straight and narrow.
This site is a mine of information on convoys: http://www.convoyweb.org.uk/index.html - great for tracking ship movements.

Welcome Allan,
Will have a detailed look at my files later tonight in the meantime see attached. Bernard Egbert Berntsen was a member of the MN crew. Do you have any records of service for him?
For Reid, you are quite lucky to have your grandfather's MN ships documented, his Maritime Card has obviously survived - many havent. I also note he served on PELEUS in 1942. Two years later this ship was the subject of the only war crime against a U-boat commander (Eck) when he machine gunned the crew in the lifeboats. He was executed.
For Mike L, not sure if that is the ship or not but I am sure about this one: http://www.photoship...nchester-03.jpg CITY OF MANCHESTER was quite a modern looking ship for her time.

Here is his medal file held at Kew in piece BT 395/1/6772 it can be downloaded for £3.36.
His Seaman's Pouch is held in piece BT 372/355/85 best obtained by visit to Kew.
I don't expect there to be much if anything in his CRS 10 (service record from Jan 1941) but it should be here BT 382/119 if you wish to try and obtain it. Again, best obtained by visit to Kew.

Great plugin, but I'm having difficulty with my first quiz.
I've created a quiz with 10 multiple choice questions. In edit mode, I've checked the box next to the correct answer for each question. When I go to validate my quiz, questions 1 and 10 are always being marked wrong when I know I've selected (and checked) the right answer. I've tripled checked, closed down the browser (chrome) and refreshed, but they always come up wrong.
Is this a known bug?
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated :)

Jealousy can ruin your relationship but here's how to stop that from happening.
Sam feels frustrated after a visit with his doctor. His blood pressure is high and he's developing a stomach ulcer. None of these health conditions are a big surprise to Sam. He's been super stressed for months and it's largely because of all of his pent up feelings. It all started when Sam's wife's ex-husband moved back to their small town.
Because her ex is respected and loved by family, friends and community members, Sam has been repeatedly told how great this man is and how he's such a wonderful father and an all-around fabulous guy.
Hearing these stories and high praise always caused Sam to feel inferior and slightly threatened by his wife's ex, but the feelings were always manageable because he lived in a different country. But now that he has returned home, it's become impossible to deny. Sam feels like a nobody compared to this local hero, and the jealousy is taking a toll on Sam's health — and on his marriage, too.
What triggers your jealousy?
The answer is different for everyone.
For some, like Sam, jealousy rears its head when an ex is somehow in the picture. Maybe your partner regularly communicates with or spends time with an ex because the two share parenting of a child, or maybe because they've managed to remain friends. Perhaps you have come into contact with your partner's ex and this sparks a painful comparison game in your mind. Or maybe all you have to do is think about them and all that you imagine brings up worry and fear that you don't measure up or that your partner will leave you for him or her.
Another jealousy trigger can come up in social situations. Especially if your partner is more extroverted than you are or if he or she is a flirt, this can bring up jealousy in an instant. Even if your partner only has eyes for you, the cruel comparison game that you play in your mind is a trigger that will ruin the fun of a party or night out with your beloved.
Distance in the relationship will also trigger jealousy. If you and your partner are physically apart either temporarily or on a long-term basis, this can makes it a challenge to stay connected and maintain trust. Physical absence is not good for an imagination prone to jealousy.
Emotional distance in a relationship will most certainly trigger jealousy too. Unresolved disagreements, misunderstandings and long-held resentments can all stir up jealous thoughts and cause you to act in ways you might not otherwise act.
Just like certain foods will trigger allergic reactions in some people, particular situations can lead to a flare up of the anxiety, nervousness, fear, suspicion, anger and even outrage that may accompany jealousy. Just like a food allergy, it's important to identify what triggers your jealousy and then to take steps to minimize the influence that trigger has on you.
Most important of all is to practice techniques that help you to calm down and see more clearly. No matter whether your jealousy is triggered by your partner's ex, social situations or distance in your relationship, these five cures will help you move beyond the trigger's effects.
- Whoop And Holler. All of that frustration and anxiety isn't going to go away on its own. Instead of trying to dull, distract or deny how you feel, find a way to let it out. Contrary to what your impulse might be, you don't have to let it out all over your partner either! Create a private space and time for yourself to give a whoop and holler. A round of yelling—not AT anyone—can be cleansing and will help you release those pent-up emotions.
- Wash It Away. Water can be very soothing for stirred up feelings, including jealousy. If just thinking about what's triggering your jealousy is too much to take, run a hot bath and go soak in the tub. If you'd like to be more active, go to your local pool or lake and take a swim.
- Question. Write down the thoughts you're having about your partner's ex, the flirting or your fears that you will be betrayed and left. Write it all down without censoring yourself and then focus in on the central thought or belief. Question it. Look for facts to show you that this thought or belief is not as solid and "true" as you might think.
- Take A Walk. Interrupting the momentum of your jealousy can be a huge help. If you're caught up in worry because your partner will be spending time with her ex, clear your head by going for a brisk walk. As you walk, direct your attention to your breath, your surroundings and the feel of your feet on the ground. This calm and clarity is an essential part of handling a triggering situation with more grace and ease than usual.
- Love. One thing that will make your jealousy grow and possibly build beyond control is if you meet it with criticism, hostility and hatred. It's understandable that you don't like to feel jealous—nobody does. It's even understandable that you don't like certain situations or even people. But don't let negativity inflame your jealousy. The more you can cultivate sincere love the better. Love yourself. Love your partner. If you can, love the feelings you're having. Your jealousy is an important signal. It's telling you to slow down and go inside yourself to understand what you're feeling and what you need to do for yourself to feel better.
You don't have to suffer through jealousy alone. We offer one-on-one jealousy coaching by phone or Skype, and we've also created this free 7 Jealousy Stopping Secrets ebook that contains doable strategies you can start practicing today.

Our Pantry - Recipes Using French Veal Demi-Glace
A rich, tangy sauce perfect for brushing on a slab of ribs or smoked pork chops. Get out the grill!
Tender veal meatballs, gently braised in our Demi-Glace Gold, make the perfect appetizer or a savory main dish served over home-style mashed potatoes.
This wine-enriched sauce is traditionally served over beef steaks or beef tenderloin, but it will also add a luscious finish to veal, pork, or lamb.
This classic sauce made with a sweet, smoky fortified wine from Portugal has an amazingly complex flavor but very few ingredients. It's the sauce of choice for Beef Wellington or a simple roasted beef tenderloin, and it's the perfect complement to game, lamb, poultry, roasted vegetables, or pork, especially an Easter ham. You can substitute other fortified wines like Marsala or Port for different but equally luscious results.
This luxurious and classic red wine sauce, accented with herbs and peppercorns and finished with butter, makes an elegant complement to beef, veal, lamb, or game. Try it with our Roasted Chicken Demi-Glace or our Roasted Vegetable Demi-Glace for poultry or vegetarian dishes.
Frankly, it almost doesn't matter what you put underneath this ambrosial sauce… Even if it won't make a silk purse of a sow's ear, the full-flavored combination of dried cherries, port, and Jus de Poulet Lié Gold certainly transforms mundane pork cutlets into celebrity fare. Serve this sauce with turkey, chicken, veal, or duck, as well.
Serve this spicy, intense sauce over grilled steaks, tenderloin, or other cuts of beef. Or make the sauce with our Roasted Chicken Demi-Glace or Roasted Vegetable Demi-Glace for poultry or vegetarian dishes.
This rich, savory sauce infused with the flavor of red wine is the perfect match for beef, from tenderloin to steaks to burgers, as well as lamb and game. It's delicious as is, or you can create your own variations by adding sautéed mushrooms, cracked black peppercorns, or a spoonful of raspberry jam--or whatever works well with your dish.
Two simple additions to our red wine sauce make a tasty variation perfect for a roast pork loin or leg of lamb.
This tangy mustard sauce is a French bistro classic--perfect with sautéed or roasted pork or sausages.
"Chasseur" means "hunter" in French, and this classic sauce traditionally made with wild mushrooms is a tribute to the mushroom hunter, as well as the perfect complement for wild game. It's deep, savory flavor, accented with tomato, white wine, brandy, and fresh herbs also makes it just the right sauce for sautéed chicken, or any roast poultry, beef, pork, veal, or vegetables.
This spicy, tangy sauce was traditionally served in France with chicken or poultry prepared á la diable: split, grilled, then sprinkled with bread crumbs and browned under a broiler. Use Sauce Diable to add some peppery zest to your grilled or roasted chicken, pork, or vegetables.
This classic French mushroom sauce gets its rich flavor from a quickly made mushroom paste (duxelles) and our French demi-glace. It can be served with a wide variety of dishes, including beef, veal, poultry, seafood, vegetables, and eggs. Vary the sauce if you like by substituting our veal, roasted chicken, or roasted veggie demi-glaces. Bon Appetit!
Fines herbes, a classic French mixture of very finely chopped parsley, chervil, tarragon, and chives, adds a fresh, bright flavor to this sauce. Infused with white wine and finished with butter, it's just the right touch for chicken, veal, vegetable, or egg dishes.
A touch of tomato, some savory smoked ham, mushrooms, and herbs make this traditional French sauce a perfect complement to beef, lamb, pork, or chicken.
According to renowned Lyonnaise chef Paul Bocuse, "In Lyon we put onion in almost everything." French onion soup originated in Lyon, as does this simple and versatile onion-scented sauce. It's superb with mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables, grilled or roasted beef, pork, lamb, game, or poultry.
This rich, classic sauce is flavored with Madeira and pungent, earthy black truffles, which are a specialty of Périgueux, a city in the Perigord region of southwestern France. Julia Child recommended Sauce Périgueux for "filet of beef, fresh foie gras, veal, egg dishes, and timbales," all delicous ways to enjoy the luxury of truffles.
In Cajun cuisine, Sauce Piquant is a spicy, tomato-based stew made with any type of meat. "Piquant" comes from the French for "to prick or sting," which is exactly what this stew is supposed to do, in a zesty, flavorful way, of course. In a similar spirit, our traditional French Sauce Piquant is tangy and slightly acidic, perfect for cutting through the rich, smoky flavors of grilled pork, beef, lamb, or vegetables.
This luscious sauce is the perfect complement to any grilled or roasted cut of beef, pork, veal or game, including flavorful birds like squab. Serve it on a grilled steak, roasted tenderloin of pork, seared venison cutlets, pan-roasted veal chops, or roasted vegetables. Your guests will be dazzled and you'll celebrate how simple it is to prepare.
Transport your guests to the sunny south of France with this flavorful sauce redolent of garlic, herbs, tomatoes, and white wine. Ladle it over grilled or sautéed fish, chicken, or vegetables, or try it with succulent slices of roast lamb.
This classic white wine sauce accented with mustard is excellent with pork or any grilled or roasted meat or poultry, as well as roasted vegetables.
The smokiness of bacon begins a sauce full of Southwestern-style flavor: onion, garlic, chile, herbs, tomatoes, and corn, with a little kick of Tabasco. Toss it with penne pasta and some fresh cilantro for an out-of-the-ordinary weeknight dinner.
Juicy roasted veal tenderloin napped in a silky red wine sauce--simple and delicious! The Sauce Guys rave about how good the leftovers are, so you might want to double the recipe.
If you haven't savored real meat sauce, you're missing one of Italy's great treasures. The long, slow cooking of aromatic vegetables with beef, veal, and pork make this ragù memorable. Finished with a little light cream and a touch of butter, the sauce is smooth and silky. If you're feeling creative, add mushrooms, sausage meat, capers, olives…or whatever. Ladle over al dente pasta and sprinkle on freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano.
Studded with wild mushrooms and enriched with cream and our Demi-Glace Gold, this full-flavored sauce complements grilled or roasted meats, game, poultry or vegetables.

- Habs hopefuls hit the Bell Sports Complex ice for the first time on Sunday morning, as part of the team's development camp. The prospects arrived in Brossard on Saturday, where they underwent a variety of physical, medical and psychological tests. The training then began on Sunday morning, with 43 players taking part in on- and off-ice sessions.
Montreal Canadiens and St. John's IceCaps General Manager Marc Bergevin announced today the IceCaps have signed goaltender Eddie Pasquale to a one-year American Hockey League contract for the 2015-16 season.
An original IceCap, Pasquale played three seasons in St. John's from 2011-12 to 2013-14 and holds many team records, including most games played by a netminder – 112.
Selected by the Atlanta Thrashers 117th overall in the 2009 NHL Entry Draft., Pasquale was traded by the Winnipeg Jets to the Washington Capitals last summer in an exchange of draft picks. However, the 24-year-old, Toronto native sat out the entire 2014-15 season recuperating from hip surgery.
MONTREAL – The Montreal Canadiens have made qualifying offers to restricted free agents Michael Bournival, Alex Galchenyuk, Jarred Tinordi, Brian Flynn, Christian Thomas and Magnus Nygren.
Forwards Drayson Bowman and Eric Tangradi, meanwhile, were not made offers and will become unrestricted free agents on July 1.
MONTREAL - The Canadiens will play their 2015-16 home opener against the New York Rangers on Thursday, October 15 at the Bell Centre.
Before kicking off their home schedule, the Canadiens will open the season against Mike Babcock's Toronto Maple Leafs at the Air Canada Centre on Wednesday, October 7 as well as taking part in Ottawa and Pittsburgh's home openers, on Sunday, October 11 and Tuesday, October 13, respectively.
The Canadiens' full 2015-16 season schedule will be unveiled on Thursday, June 25.

MONTREAL - Marc Bergevin will be one of the assistants for Team Canada at the 2016 World Cup of Hockey.
Hockey Canada called upon the Canadiens GM to act as an assistant to Doug Armstrong (St. Louis Blues), who will also have Ken Holland (Detroit Red Wings) Bob Murray (Anaheim Ducks), Rob Blake (Los Angeles Kings) and Scott Salmond (Hockey Canada) on staff.
Bergevin will join Team Canada in a management role for the first time.
"These are some of the most respected and successful men in hockey, and we could not be more excited for them to lead Team Canada into the 2016 World Cup of Hockey," said Tom Renney, president and chief executive officer of Hockey Canada. "There is a lot of work to be done between now and Sept. 17, 2016, and as a staff we look forward to working with the management group as we look toward a second consecutive World Cup championship for Team Canada."
He was a finalist for the NHL General Manager of the Year award for the 2012-13 and 2013-14 seasons. Prior to joining Montreal, Bergevin was the director of player personnel for the NHL's Chicago Blackhawks, winning the Stanley Cup in 2010, and served as assistant general manager during the 2011-12 season. As a player, Bergevin represented his country just once, helping Canada end a 33-year gold medal drought at the 1994 IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship. He played 21 NHL seasons with eight teams after being selected 59th overall by Chicago in the 1983 NHL Entry Draft.

Learning from the best
Michael McCarron and the Oshawa Generals are 2015 Memorial Cup champions.
After a slow start on Sunday, the Generals bounced back to start the second period, tying the game at one goal apiece in the middle frame before Anthony Cirelli scored the game winner to defeat the Kelowna Rockets in overtime.
Although McCarron was held scoreless in the final, he made his presence felt physically, dishing out six hits over the course of the evening as well as nearly finding the winner himself midway through the third.
For a moment it looked like extra time would not be needed after Hunter Smith appeared to score late in the third, but the would-be go-ahead goal was eventually waved off for a high stick.
The Canadiens' first-round pick in 2013, McCarron made his second career Memorial Cup appearance in Quebec City, following last year's participation with the London Knights.
QUEBEC CITY – Zachary Fucale's bid for a second Memorial Cup championship in the last four years fell one game short of the 2015 final on Friday.

Playing a third game in as many nights at this year's tournament in Quebec City, Fucale and the Quebec Remparts were bested 9-3 by the WHL's Kelowna Rockets in the semifinal round.
Although the hosts looked sharp in the first – Fucale notably stopped 13 of 14 shots in a busy opening frame while the Remparts jumped out to an early 1-0 lead – the Rockets were eventually able to take advantage of a fatigued Quebec squad, exploding with a pair of four-goal periods in the second and third to put the game out of reach.
"There was no gas left in the tank, and I'm not saying that as an excuse. We were drained," admitted Quebec head coach Philippe Boucher. "Three games in three nights – this time against the Western champions – was just too much for us."
Despite the difficult outing, the Canadiens' 2013 draft pick never called it quits between the pipes, facing another 44 shots on the night in a tournament in which he had already seen more than his fair share of action.
"Early in the third I asked him personally if he wanted to stay on the ice, and I had [his teammate] Raphael Maheux ask him a second time," continued Boucher. "I'm not surprised [by his decision]. He wanted to finish his Junior career on the ice, and I respect that."
Coming off a tough loss to end his 2015 season – and possibly his time in the Junior ranks – at home a day after celebrating his 20th birthday, Fucale meanwhile wasn't quite ready to start sharing his thoughts on any longer-term decisions, such as where he might be playing this fall.
"That's not something I'm thinking about right now," underlined the four-year QMJHL veteran. "The game ended 20 minutes ago, so I'm going to take a break before I start thinking about what's next."
What was clear however, was that even if the Laval, QC native's year didn't end on a high note, the promising young netminder can continue to keep his head up high moving forward.
"Overall we had a very good season. We took Rimouski to seven games in the QMJHL final, and I think we earned the right to be at the Memorial Cup," concluded Fucale, who also won gold at home with Canada at the 2015 World Junior Championships in January. "Yesterday we beat Rimouski in the tiebreaker (to reach the semifinal round) and I think that as a team we should be proud of the season we had."
|Zachary Fucale (Aaron Bell - CHL Images)
Twenty-four hours after being shut out by the Rimouski Oceanic, Zachary Fucale and the Quebec Remparts took their revenge over their provincial rivals in the tie-breaking match-up on Thursday night, skating away with a 5-2 win to earn a spot in the Memorial Cup semifinal.
After allowing four goals on Wednesday before being replaced midway through the evening, Fucale bounced back in brilliant fashion the next night, kicking aside 30 of the 32 shots he faced on Thursday, which also marked the Remparts netminder's 20th birthday.
Quebec won't have much time to relax after the win as they get set to play a third game in as many nights. They'll face off against the Kelowna Rockets on Friday, with the winner punching their ticket to the Memorial Cup Final against Michael McCarron and the Oshawa Generals. In their tournament-opening tilt one week ago, the Remparts defeated the Rockets 4-3.
|Zachary Fucale (Aaron Bell - CHL Images)
QUEBEC CITY - It was a tough night for Zachary Fucale and the Quebec Remparts on Wednesday against the Rimouski Oceanic at the Colisée Pepsi. The hosts of the 2015 Memorial Cup tournament fell 4-0 to their provincial rivals, forcing the two teams to meet again in Thursday's tiebreaker.
Despite numerous Quebec scoring chances early in the first period, Rimouski was the more opportunistic of the two teams, getting on the board first and taking control of the game. As has been the case since the start of the tournament, Fucale was once again tested early and often on Wednesday, facing 25 shots in just over 32 minutes of play. Following the Oceanic's fourth goal at the midway point of the game however, Remparts head coach Philippe Boucher pulled his starting netminder in favor of Callum Booth.
The Canadiens' second round pick in 2013 won't have to wait long to put Wednesday's result behind him, as Quebec and Rimouski will now meet again for the 17th time this season in Thursday's tiebreaker. The winner of the tournament's first elimination round will then go on to face the Kelowna Rockets in Friday's semifinal.
Michael McCarron and the Oshawa Generals clinched a spot in the Memorial Cup final on Tuesday night with a 2-1 win over the Kelowna Rockets at the Colisee Pepsi.
McCarron failed to register a point for the first time during the tournament, but he still came close to scoring in the latter stages of the first period. While his shot beat Rockets goaltender Jackson Whistle between the legs, it ultimately hit the goal post. The 20-year-old centreman finished the night with a minus-1 differential, registering two shots on goal, dishing out three hits and winning nine of the 20 draws he took.
McCarron was also used in a crucial defensive role during the game, taking to the ice while the Generals were trying to kill off a 5-on-3 situation at the end of the game in order to protect a one-goal lead.
"[Coach] has been using me in those situations all year, especially in those defensive situations to win some faceoffs," offered McCarron. "Unfortunately, I didn't win that one, but I thought I did a good job working with our defenseman and getting in the passing lanes. I know they had some good chances. I think we were right in their kitchen a little bit too much and they couldn't get a shot on net."
The Generals will now enjoy a four-day break before vying for the Memorial Cup title. Their opponent will be determined during the semi-final on Friday night.
"I love that we have four days off before the finals," concluded McCarron. "Everybody in there is a little bit banged up and needs a little bit of extra rest. This is going to help us for sure."

Google invests in Mussolini project
By Benjamin Lazarus, July 9, 2012
Google is investing millions of dollars in a YouTube channel dedicated to Benito Mussolini.
Having struck a deal with the Italian government, Google will upload an archive containing 30,000 newsreels and documentaries, many of which glorify Mussolini and his reign.
The majority of the videos were recorded by the Istituto Luce-Cinecittà, which was used as a propaganda tool by the dictator after it was founded in 1924.
Google's manager for Europe, Africa and the Middle East, Carlo d'Asaro Biondo, told the Guardian: "the films about fascism make us understand and enhance our critical spirit", adding "I am not sure if it's good to make fun, but they seem quite funny".

Florence student suspended after downloading gun photo
FLORENCE, Ariz. — A freshman at Poston Butte High School said he was suspended from school for possessing a picture of a gun.
According to ABC15.com, Daniel McClaine Jr. saved a picture of an AK-47 on top of a flag on his school-issued computer. While McClaine had intended to use the picture as his desktop background, a teacher noticed the image and turned him in.
For his actions, McClaine was suspended Friday, as the picture was in violation of district policy which states that students are prohibited from "sending or displaying offensive messages or pictures."
"This gun wallpaper does not show anything that's violent. It's not showing anybody getting shot in any way," McClaine told ABC15.com. "It's just a picture of a gun. It's nothing — nobody getting shot, nobody getting it pointed at them, it's nothing."
In response to McClaine's suspension, a spokeswoman with the Florence Unified School District released the following statement:
Although we cannot specifically discuss student discipline, we can certainly agree that violence in schools is a sensitive and timely issue. Students, parents and staff are on edge, and the daily news delivers more reasons for caution. All of us must work together to protect our kids and to cultivate an environment that is conducive to learning.
McClaine's suspension will last three days.

Mysterious boom rattles Chesnee residents
Published: Tuesday, January 21, 2014 at 3:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, January 21, 2014 at 3:00 p.m.
A mysterious, loud boom shook the windows and scared some residents of Chesnee on Monday night.
"There was just one (boom)," said Becki Hood, city administrator for the city of Chesnee. "It was like a bomb had gone off."
In a statement, the Spartanburg County Sheriff's Office said it began receiving calls about the boom at about 9 p.m. Monday. The Spartanburg County Communications Center dispatched deputies and firefighters to the area to see if they could locate the source of the noise or any damage related to it, but nothing was found.
"A check of the area did not turn up anyone who may have been responsible for these booms or any damage caused as a result of these booms," Lt. Tony Ivey, public information officer with the sheriff's office, wrote in an email.
The boom was said to be very quick and very loud by those who heard it.
"My windows rattled. It scared me to death," Hood said.
Although the Spartanburg County Sheriff's Office didn't draw any definitive conclusions as to what caused the blast, Cherokee County Sheriff Steve Mueller suspects Tannerite, an exploding target used primarily for target practice with rifles.
"Based off the information we've gotten so far, it sounds like Tannerite," Mueller said.
Anyone with any information on who or what may have been responsible for the loud boom in Chesnee is asked to call CrimeStoppers at 1.888.CRIME.SC.

In a July 31 memo, OMB Acting Director Jeffrey Zients informed agency heads his office will be holding talks about the how the sequester would be implemented. The $1.2 trillion sequester was automatically triggered when the Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction in November 2011 botched its attempt to find ways to reduce the budget deficit.

Sequestration hearing unravels into partisan 'food fight'
President Barack Obama "remains confident that Congress will act, but because it has not yet made progress toward enacting sufficient deficit reduction, the Office of Management and Budget will work with agencies, as necessary, on issues raised by a sequestration of this magnitude," Zients wrote.
OMB also plans to engage with agencies on expected reporting requirements set by Congress that are related to, but separate from, planning for or adopting a sequestration order under the Budget Control Act, Zients said.
The exact amount of money being cut can only be calculated once FY 2013 funding levels are determined, Zients said. OMB will have to gather information on sequestrable amounts and gauge the percentage reductions necessary to implement the cuts before any sequestration order is issued.
"In the meantime, agencies should continue normal spending and operations since more than five months remain for Congress to act," Zients said.

Nestle Forecasts Full-Year Sales Growth at High End of Range
Nestle SA, the world's biggest food company, said revenue growth is likely to be at the top end of its forecast range this year after reporting the biggest sales increase since the first half of 2008.
Sales excluding acquisitions, disposals and currency shifts rose 7.5 percent in the six months ended June 30, the Vevey, Switzerland-based company said today. Nestle, which targets a 5 percent to 6 percent annual gain, also predicted higher margins.
The growth in so-called organic sales beat the 6.5 percent average estimate of analysts surveyed by Bloomberg, led by a 12 percent gain in Asia. Nestle is pushing products for lower-income consumers into more rural regions of Asia as it aims to sell the items in a million stores by next year. The guidance on annual sales is "cautious," Chief Financial Officer Jim Singh said on a conference call with analysts.
"Another vintage performance," said Simon Marshall-Lockyer, an analyst at Jefferies International Ltd. in London with a "buy" recommendation on the shares. Sales growth in Europe and the Americas was stronger than expected, he said.
Nestle climbed as much as 1.15 Swiss francs, or 2.5 percent, to 47.85 francs in Zurich trading. The shares traded up 1.7 percent at 47.50 francs at 11:36 a.m.
Buyback Halted
Nestle also said today it decided against buying back more shares after repurchasing 35 billion francs ($48.4 billion) worth since 2007. The decision may disappoint some investors and lead to increased speculation that the company may seek to acquire Pfizer Inc.'s infant-nutrition business, according to Jon Cox, an analyst at Kepler Capital Markets in Zurich.
Nestle is likely to bid for the Pfizer unit, which the U.S. drugmaker said July 7 it may sell or spin off, according to people with knowledge of the process. Danone and Abbott Laboratories probably will also bid for the business, which may fetch as much as $10.5 billion, the people said.
Nestle is looking for acquisition opportunities "all over the world," Singh said, adding that the company is focused on "bolt-on" deals in categories of strategic importance.
"Our clear priority is to invest in our business, either internally or externally," Singh said. Nestle's "next priority is to return cash to shareholders," he said, adding that the company aims to increase its dividend next year.
Price Increases
Nestle agreed last month to buy a stake in snack and candy maker Hsu Fu Chi International Ltd. to expand in China, where the company's infant nutrition business has seen its market share dwindle since 2005, when it withdrew two varieties of milk powder after authorities found they contained too much iodine.
Sales were helped by pricing increases of 3.8 percent in the second quarter, more than the first quarter's 1.5 percent.
Nestle said it expects higher prices to have "a fuller impact" in the second half of the year. The company expects continuing "challenging conditions" including political and economic instability and volatile raw-material prices.
"Nestle, Danone and Unilever are all reporting volume growth," said Chris Wickham, an analyst at Matrix Corporate Capital in London. "The message on European food manufacturers is they've got a very good strategic bias towards healthy food and emerging markets, which the American companies haven't."
Unilever, the maker of Dove soap and Magnum ice cream, last week reported the highest quarterly price growth since 2009 after introducing products including Knorr jelly bouillon in new markets and passing on costs. Danone posted first-half sales growth of 8.7 percent in July.
Lower Profit
Net income at Nestle fell to 4.7 billion francs in the first half, after the company sold its stake in Alcon last year and earnings were eroded by the strength of the Swiss franc and higher raw-material costs. That was higher than the 4.61 billion francs anticipated by analysts.
Nestle said June 8 that raw-material inflation this year would probably be near the high end of the company's forecast range of 2.5 billion francs to 3 billion francs. Chief Executive Officer Paul Bulcke has said inflation will probably accelerate, especially in emerging markets, though global growth should continue. Higher input costs hurt profitability at the company's water business as expenses for plastic and transport rose.
Nestle last year sold a majority stake in Alcon, a maker of contact-lens solutions, to Novartis AG for $28.3 billion.
The competitive environment in North America is "tough," according to the bottler of Poland Spring waters.
Americas, Europe
Organic revenue from Nestle's Americas unit increased 5.6 percent, fuelled by growth in its pizza business and sales of Nescafe soluble coffee. Revenue from the Europe unit increased 4.1 percent, helped by sales of its Maggi Juicy Roasting and Nescafe Dolce Gusto products. Nestle had "strong performances" in countries including France, Italy and Switzerland.
Organic sales at Nestle's nutrition unit grew 8.8 percent during the first half, though profitability weakened. The company's Jenny Craig weight-loss business had a "tough" first half in North America because of the weak economy and a "high level" of pressure from competitors, Nestle said.

I really liked the flavor of this dish! I used pre-cooked shrimp and marinated overnight. Doing it again I would probably use uncooked shrimp so some more of the amaretto can cook off. The result this time was a little too alcoholic tasting.
This was excellent! The shrimp were perfectly cooked and the sauce is awesome. The only thing I will change next time I make it is to thicken up the sauce a little. We served it with basmati rice. Thanks for posting such a delicious and different recipe.
Deliciously shrimp food!
This was great! I think next time I may marinate it in some more amaretto though so the flavor is a bit stronger but even done the way it says yielded a great delicate flavor and it went really well on top of rice. The slivered almonds also went well on the rice being that they are the same shape and almost size, they gave the dish a crunch factor. The whole dish came together very quickly and I agree that the taste would lead you to believe otherwise. I will definately be making this one again!
This is simple. It is so good you would think it took hours to make it.
This was delicious. I, too, marinated the shrimp for several hours as I needed to get all my prep done by early afternoon. I served it with the angel hair pasta, which we thought was quite nice -- light enough to be nicely complimented by the light butter sauce. It all went together at the end in less than 15 minutes. My DD thought it was very special and should be fixed for company.
DELICIOUS! I made this for Valentine's Day for my fiance. He *raved* about it! It was delicious. I was skeptical about the flavour pairings, but they were delicious! Thanks for sharing such a great recipe!
Unusual, yet flavorful shrimp. I love amaretto, so I just had to give this a try. There was a faint sweetness to the shrimp. I would agree that 3 T. butter is perfect and I wouldn't change a thing. I served this with a baked potato and fresh tossed salad.
I really liked this dish. It added a very good flavor to the shrimp. In a lot of shrimp dishes you can't taste the shrimp just a lot of spice. I served it over rice that I thought would go better with the shrimp then pasta. I also maranated the shrimp in the amaretto for a few hours before cooking.

Is it possible to add a parameter to include or exclude certain users?
Is it possible to add a parameter to include or exclude certain users?
In the shortcode? At this moment, no. But you can always filter either
sul_user_query_args or
pre_user_query. I will consider adding support for the
WP_User_Query parameters... it shouldn't be overly hard.
Since I'm not a web developper, I don't really know if it's correct, but it worked for me.
I had a list of registered users (mainly contributors, but also 3 admins including me) and I didn't want to appear in this list. So the only solution for me was to only exclude my profile (ID), not a type of users.
In the simple-user-listing.php l.137, I added :
'exclude' => array( 1 ),
$args = array(
'query_id' => 'simple_user_listing',
'exclude' => array( 1 ),
'offset' => $offset,
'number' => $number,
'orderby' => $orderby,
'order' => $order,
'role' => $role
I was the first user registered ("1") but you could easily replace this ID by finding yours in your SQL file.
It seems to work pretty well, so maybe it could help...
Please don't hard-code something like that in the plugin source, you'll lose your changes as soon as you upgrade.
[userlist exclude="1"]
will work in the next update... which I will try to push out in a few days.
Ok, my bad! I need this feature to work now, so I leave it like this for now and when the next update is available, I will use this shortcode. Thanks for your prompt answer :)
I just pushed it live, so check for updates in your dashboard.
This topic has been closed to new replies.


text: I'm going to be cautiously optimistic, and I'm going to go ahead and announce that I tested yesterday (I gave in, after I swore to myself that I wasn't going to test until Sunday). Nothing showed up right away, and I wasn't surprised. But later, there was a faint line (on a FRER). I really am going to try and wait until Sunday to re-test, so we'll see how that goes. Wish me luck, and sticky dust!

I think this is an SF question rather than SO, so hopefully I'll find an answer here...
I have a .Net 4 web application deployed to both Windows 2008/IIS7 (dev server) and Windows 2008R2/IIS7.5 (prod server). This site runs without an issue. We've recently had to add IP restrictions to the site, which is set up as "deny all, allow these". Accessing the site from an IP on the whitelist is fine, but from a denied IP it ends in an application exception. I'd expect the result from the denied IP to be a standard IIS error page for a 403.6 response without the request ever arriving at the site, but it seems the request DOES get to the site. Both servers have many site defined and use hostname based binding.
From the dev box, here's the relevant entry from the applicationHost.config file for my current test (the prod file has allow entries instead of this deny entry):
<location path="OurSite.Web">
<anonymousAuthentication enabled="true" />
<ipSecurity allowUnlisted="false">
<add ipAddress="10.1.3.193" allowed="false" />
And here's the error message:
2013-08-26 10:55:07,229 FATAL OurSite.Web (null) [12] System.Web.HttpApplication.RaiseOnError(:0) - An unhandled 'NotSupportedException' exception occurred within the application.
System.NotSupportedException: There is no session associated with this context. You should ensure that one has been started by specifying the correct domain alias
at OurSite.Data.Dao.Session.NHibernateSessionManager.CommitTransaction()
at OurSite.Web.HttpModule.AbstractNHibernateSessionModule.CommitAndCloseSession(Object sender, EventArgs e)
at System.Web.HttpApplication.SyncEventExecutionStep.System.Web.HttpApplication.IExecutionStep.Execute()
at System.Web.HttpApplication.ExecuteStep(IExecutionStep step, Boolean& completedSynchronously)
You can see that the request has made it to the site, but not by the normal means, as the NHibernate session was never created. The application does not specify any custom errors (the custom error section is set to Off.) The failed request log is empty.
If anyone can point out what could be wrong, either with the setup or my understanding of how it works, that'd be very much appreciated!

She went donkey on that monkey.
Elroy Fitzによって 2004年02月01日(日)
A term of identification used for anoyone who can closely imitate the stunned demeanor that donkey kong takes when he receives a serious blow to the head. This shortened form is more easily said in conversation than "donkey kong". D.K. is just too cool to be considered for such a person. Also, it carries connotations of Shrek's sidekick.
Josh Good is donkey. Call him that when you see him on Lycoming Campus and elsewhere.

I found the interface of this plugin a little odd and buggy. I also found test entries were constantly being emailed for approval. But yet no emails were made about images needing to be approve. I links even with permalinks in place didn't seem to want to show the ads.
This is a plugin with BIG potential, and I know it is just a beta version and the developer is working on it. But it was too buggy any usage at this time.

Crime blotter: powder blues
On February 20th, Thomas Clayton Cadwell reported to the Dakota County Jail, in Hastings, to serve a sentence for driving after his license had been revoked. At approximately 7:30 p.m., while searching the 45-year-old Northfield resident's leather jacket, an officer allegedly discovered a plastic bag containing a white powder substance. Upon being questioned, according to a criminal complaint filed in Dakota County District Court, Cadwell admitted taking crystal meth within the previous week. He also stated that he had checked his property roughly 20 times to make sure that he wasn't bringing any illegal substances into the jail. The powder in his jacket tested positive for meth. Cadwell faces one count of fifth degree possession of a controlled substance. According to the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, he has 10 prior criminal convictions, including four citations for driving while impaired.
