# 2011 Shellharbour and Wollongong local elections

The 2011 Shellharbour and Wollongong local elections were held on 3 September 2011 to elect the councils of the City of Shellharbour and the City of Wollongong in New South Wales.
Wollongong City Council was sacked in March 2008 amid a corruption inquiry, and the same happened to Shellharbour City Council in July 2008 because of continual failures with the council's code of conduct committee. This meant electors in both councils did not vote at the 2008 local elections.
Both councils also faced a proposed merger, which was later abandoned.
Shellharbour has single ward with seven councillors, while Wollongong has a popularly-elected mayor, along with three wards that have four councillors each.

## Results
### Wollongong

Council party totals :
| Party | Party | Seats |
| Liberal | Liberal | 4 |
| Labor | Labor | 4 |
| Independent | Independent | 2 |
| Greens | Greens | 2 |

## Aftermath

Under the Local Government (Shellharbour and Wollongong Elections) Bill 2011, which passed the New South Wales Parliament on 9 May 2011, councillors were elected to hold office until the 2016 local elections, meaning they skipped the 2012 local elections. However, as a result of delays caused by amalgamation proposals, both councils went to the polls in 2017 instead.
In 2014, Shellharbour councillors began to investigate the costs of a referendum that would allow voters to directly elect their mayor (as was the case before 2008) and increase the number of councillors from seven to nine. Both proposals later passed at a 2017 referendum, with four wards created with two councillors each, plus the mayor.

# Progressive squeeze

The progressive squeeze (also termed a "repeating squeeze") is a contract bridge squeeze that gains two tricks by squeezing one and the same player twice, hence the name. A progressive squeezes is a subset of triple squeezes that, depending both on entries and on positional factors, may result in a subsequent, simple, two-suit squeeze that takes place against the opponent who has just been triple squeezed. Confusing the issue is that some triple squeezes can become progressive squeezes through misdefense.

## Examples

The first diagram shows a basic example:
| ♠ | A J 10 | | |
| ♣ | 6 | | |
| N E S | N E S | ♠ | K Q |
| N E S | N E S | ♥ | A |
| N E S | N E S | ♦ | A |
| N E S | N E S | ♣ | — |
| ♠ | 3 | | |
| ♥ | K | | |
| ♦ | K | | |
| ♣ | A | | |
When the ace of clubs is cashed East is squeezed and has to discard one of his red aces, the established king is cashed (this is the progressive squeeze card) and East is squeezed for another trick.
In the above example an extended menace, threatening the immediate loss of two tricks was present. That is not always necessary, a progressive squeeze still works if we have an additional entry as compensation.
| ♠ | A J | | |
| ♥ | 3 2 | | |
| ♣ | 6 | | |
| N E S | N E S | ♠ | K Q |
| N E S | N E S | ♥ | K Q |
| N E S | N E S | ♦ | A |
| N E S | N E S | ♣ | — |
| ♠ | 2 | | |
| ♥ | A J | | |
| ♦ | K | | |
| ♣ | A | | |
When the ace of clubs is cashed East can either discard the diamond ace, after which the diamond king will seal his fate, or bare one of his major suit holdings in which case the jack in that suit will be the progressive squeeze card. Had West East's cards the best defense to discard a spade will break the second squeeze.

| Metal Hammer Germany | 4/7 |
| Rock Hard | 7.0 |
The Sonic Seducer and Rock Hard magazines interpreted the album as a tribute to Blackmore's Night. The latter review observed that while the album had been produced well the songs lacked a certain amount of pressure and did not really correspond to the Metal genre. Metal Hammer Germany compared singer Jessica Thierjung's voice to Doro Pesch and observed a frequent "Celtic mood" that was caused by the string instruments.

# Il cucchiaio d'argento

Il cucchiaio d'argento (Italian:), or The Silver Spoon in English, is a major Italian cookbook and kitchen reference work originally published in 1950 by the design and architecture magazine Domus. It contains about 2,000 recipes drawn from all over Italy, and has gone through eleven editions.

## History

It originated from a post-World War II pricing dispute between the publishers and some of the distributors of the popular Il talismano della felicità by Ada Boni.
Editoriale Domus still publishes the book as a single volume as well as a series of single-subject books. It is now in its eleventh Italian edition. Domus also produces Il cucchiaino d'argento for children, as well as creating recipes for Phaidon's books; these include regional cookbooks (so far for Tuscany, Sicily, and Puglia) as well as seasonal and single-ingredient books on pasta and seafood.
Several English versions (customized for the country of sale) were published as The Silver Spoon by the United Kingdom's Phaidon Press in 2005, then later in German, French and Dutch. They are based on the 1997 Italian edition, with a special section of recipes from prominent Italian cooks around the world. While Phaidon's original edition had been criticized for awkward measurements, the English editions have overall been well received and are very popular. In the US the book became a New York Times Bestseller, catching some in the industry by surprise.
Phaidon followed up in 2009 with The Silver Spoon: Pasta and The Silver Spoon Book for Children.
A revised English edition was released in November 2011, with adjusted measurements, 400 new photographs, as well as a new cover, more similar to the red leather binding of the original Italian edition.
