PUBLIC AI Index: AFR 54/017/2006
22 May 2006
Further Information on UA 140/06 (AFR 54/016/2006, 18 May 2006) Fear for safety/Incommunicado detention
SUDAN Mossaad Mohamed Ali (m)
Adam Mohamed Sharief (m)
Human rights lawyers Mossaad Mohamed Ali and Adam Mohamed Sharief have been released but have to report daily to the National Security Agency offices in Nyala, South Darfur. They had been held at the NSA detention centre where they were at risk of torture or other ill-treatment.
Adam Mohamed Sharief was allowed home at 11 pm on 16 May, but told to report to the offices of the NSA in Nyala on the following morning. Since then he has had to report to the offices on daily basis at 7am and is not allowed home until later in the evening. During this time however he has not been questioned and has to wait around all day.
Mossaad Mohamed Ali was released from the NSA offices on 20 May at 5.30pm. He has been released without charge and whilst being detained was only interrogated once on 19 May after being held for three days. During the interrogation, he was questioned about the Amel Centre for the Treatment and Rehabilitation Centre of Victims of Torture and reportedly accused of opposing the Darfur Peace Agreement. He was also accused of inciting internally displaced people to resort to violence. He too has been ordered to report on a daily basis to the NSA and is made to stay until the evening.
The NSA refused to allow human rights monitors from the UN Mission in Sudan to see the detainees whilst they were being held, even though the authorities have agreed to allow the UN unrestricted access to all detainees held in Darfur. Mossaad Mohamed Ali was allowed to meet his family for only five minutes on 19 May and to meet a group of Nyala-based lawyers on 20 May shortly before his release following international pressure on the authorities.
The practice of summoning people (istid'a) is a frequent form of harassment. The individual is summoned to the security department and interrogated, or made to sit around, for several hours; this daily summoning is frequently repeated, sometimes for up to two weeks.
No further action is required from the UA Network at present. Many thanks to all those who sent appeals.

What started with a logo consult quickly became a greater need.
IMPEDE was in need of a brand identity and branding strategy to capitalize on the natural insect repellent market.

IMPEDE's Brand Voice
"Tough on bugs. Gentle on you."

Through extensive market research, we were able to set IMPEDE apart from the competition and properly direct attention toward a less-tapped market in the Caribbean. A fresh brand identity now highlights IMPEDE's natural origins.
NLB STUDIOS has been great to work with. I am very comfortable with the team approach and continue to be impressed with the outcomes at every level. Our work together is far from over but I am confident that the time and energy invested in my projects will have tremendous outcomes.

Sean and Alexandra Parker: Tech Grants/
NET WORTH: $2.6 billion
SOURCE OF WEALTH: Facebook
FUNDING AREAS: Science, Global Health, Civic Engagement
OVERVIEW: In June 2015, Parker announced a $600 million contribution to launch The Parker Foundation with his wife Alexandra, which prioritizes science, global health and civic engagement. Major donations include a $250 million grant to establish the Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy and a $24 million to create the Sean N. Parker Center for Allergy Research at Stanford.
BACKGROUND: After making a splash with Napster, with which Sean Parker became a mortal enemy of the music industry, he made his big money by helping give birth to Facebook, the shares of which have now climbed well above the original IPO price.
LIFE SCIENCES: The Parkers pledged $24 million to create the Sean N. Parker Center for Allergy Research at Stanford. Parker himself suffers from severe nut allergies. The couple also made a $10 million grant to create the Sean N. Parker Autoimmune Research Laboratory at UCSF. In April 2016, meanwhile, the Parker Foundation announced a $250 million grant to form the Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy. Parker also helped establish the Stand Up 2 Cancer and Cancer Research Institute's (CRI) Immunology Dream Team. As well, the Sean Parker Institute for the Voice at Weill Cornell "researches the entire spectrum of voice disorders to inform world-class clinical care for patients. "
GLOBAL HEALTH: The couple made a $4.5 million grant to support the Malaria Elimination Initiative at the University of California San Francisco's Global Health Group. He's been a strong supporter of Charity: Water, which brings water resources to communities in developing countries, and Malaria No More, a group that focuses on malaria treatment and prevention in Africa.
CIVIC ENGAGEMENT: The foundation also believes that "investments in education and technical skills, while certainly not sufficient, will help repair this rift and transform society for a 21st century democracy." Strategic partners and grantees have included Brigade Media, "an online network that helps people connect around the political issues they care about and enables civic action and political participation," Code for America, and the Economic Innovation Group.
LOOKING FORWARD: It's worth noting that Alexandra has a passion for helping those struggling with opiate addiction and her efforts are also focused on a public education initiative aimed at removing the stigma associated with with addiction. The couple's philanthropy is just kicking off, so they may increase giving in the coming years.

NBC takes February
The final numbers are in for the February sweeps and, as expected, it was NBC by a landslide.
Sparked by two weeks of the Winter Olympic Games, NBC averaged a network-best 9.2
rating/23 share in adults 18 through 49 and 25.1 million viewers, according to Nielsen
Media Research figures.
NBC was up 67 percent in adults 18 through 49 and 93 percent in total viewers from
last February.
Despite NBC's Olympics coverage, Fox and United Paramount Network each had strong sweeps, as well.
UPN had its best February sweeps results in five years, averaging a 2.0/5 in
adults 18 through 49 and 4.5 million viewers. UPN was up 25 percent and 19 percent in
the two ratings categories, respectively.
Fox, which started the sweeps with the Super Bowl, averaged a 5.8/14 (up 12
percent) in adults 18 through 49 and 13.2 million viewers (up 23 percent).
CBS, ABC and The WB Television Network won't be talking too much about February, though.
CBS averaged a 3.3/8 in adults 18 through 49 (down 25 percent) and 10.7 million
viewers (down 22 percent).
ABC was off 33 percent in adults 18 through 49 (3.0/8) and another 37 percent in
total viewers (8 million).
The WB averaged a 1.6/4 in adults 18 through 49 (down 6 percent) and 3.7 million

The PEI Writers' Guild Open Mic Series returns after the holidays with its first event Thursday, January 10, 2019 at Receiver Coffee Co., 128 Richmond St. in Charlottetown. The featured reader portion of this open mic is dedicated to When We Rise From the Sea, a tribute to the late John Smith.
The son of working-class immigrant parents from Britain, John Smith earned a B.Sc. in Physics and Math from the University of Toronto and taught high school in Huntsville, Ontario. He returned to the U of T for an M.A. in English, then found his intellectual home at UPEI, personal home on Fitzroy Street in Old Charlottetown, and contemplative home on the trails and beaches of Prince Edward Island. He was UPEI's first Dean of Arts and a co-founder of the PEI Council of the Arts.
For twenty-five years at UPEI, and after his retirement in the early 1990s, John's luminous intelligence, elegant wisdom, and glorious voice brought Shakespeare and other realms of poetry to life. With his dazzling mind, graceful spirit, delightful wit, radiant face, and generous heart, he enthralled and inspired students, colleagues, and other Islanders for decades.
John's conversation, teaching, and poetry drew upon a boundless knowledge and reverential curiosity: weaving "strands the length of the wind" from astronomy, geology, biology, archaeology, history, music, visual arts, philosophy and religion, even from baseball and Sumo wrestling. As he wrote in "The World: Further Hypotheses," "The world is a hat. You put it on when you rise from the sea." He was always rising from the sea. His hat was voluminous. He bestowed that hat on the heads of countless students, friends, and fellow authors. When the PEI Legislature established the position of Poet Laureate, John Smith was the inevitable first choice.
"We meet again by the ancient stream," John wrote, "we too who are so much running water." On January 10 at Receiver Coffee, come sit together by that ancient stream with the running water of John Smith's poems.
Readers of John's work will include:
Laurie Brinklow Lobie Daughton
Julie Dennison David Hickey
Deirdre Kessler Richard Lemm
Brent MacLaine
All are welcome to this free event. The first ten writers to sign up for the open mic portion may read from their work, either poetry or prose—for up to 5 minutes. Following a short break, the When We Rise From the Sea will begin.
The PEI Writers' Guild – Open Mic Series will continue to run on the second Thursday of each month.
go outside…
go under the trees
feel the wind,
watch the birds…
listen to the songs of the world…
above all things… be kind…
– Penned by Julia, daughter of John Smith

This is gonna sound reaaaal nooby but how do i download this, (on the website) or do i have to run it through the curse app?
The dropbox link to the server files from the main menu isnt working, is there anywhere at all i can get the server files?
Mind if I leave a suggestion? When starting the world for the first time the startup messages that show in chat (This server does not have hardcore questing mode, InvTweaks: Configuration loaded, etc.) could have a prompt about using O to activate Toomanyitems as it took me ages to figure out that was available.
Thanks, cool pack
Do you know if the Minecraft Comes Alive and/or Too Many Items mod is compatible with the mod pack?
Toomanyitems is on already, press O. Very useful just hidden by default. Minecraft Comes Alive would be interesting or maybe some mod that adds extra animals?
Is there a way I can update mods within the pack without breaking the pack? I'm not sure if they're intentionally old but they're missing certain newer features like in a newer version of the Painter you can paint cobble, glowstone and other blocks with the target texture, not just conduit facades. Makes it a lot easier to cover large areas with what would otherwise be an expensive block like iron blocks for aesthetics.
Hm ok. Feels like I'm using the mc equivalent to Windows 3.1 for some mod versions

"To laugh often and much, to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends, to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch…to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded!"

If you're in a relationship, then you are probably no stranger to fighting with your significant other. Although nobody truly enjoys them, the truth of the matter is that all couples fight — and you might even be wondering how much fighting is normal. According to Joseph Cilona, Psy.D., some couples argue more than others and "there is no one correct formula when it comes to frequency of conflict," he told Glamour. In fact, there are some fights so common that almost every couple has them at one point or another.
Although it is important to talk about your needs when dating (or when in a longterm relationship), it is also important to understand that even happy couples fight. You might be the kind of couple that fights frequently about little things or the kind of couple that comes back to the same issues over and over, and that's all okay. In times when you feel extra stressed about your most recent fight, here are eight relationship fights that it's totally okay for you and your sweetie to have.
Fights about sex are one of the most common types of fights that couples have, and it often stems from different sex drives — and a general lack of communication. It's not unusual for one of you to want more regular physical time than the other but the key here is to be able to talk about it clearly. Make sure that you set aside time to talk about sex regularly and are clear on what you want in bed (including how often you'd like to have sex and if you want to experiment more in the bedroom).

Premier Division preview - Round 10
All eyes will be firmly set on a mammoth clash down in the south of the country as Waterford FC face Munster Rivals Cork City at the RSC. Elsewhere, Dundalk play host to the RTÉ Cameras and Shamrock Rovers in the other huge game of the weekend. St.Pat's host a struggling Bray Wanderers, Bohemians square off against Limerick FC at Dalymount Park, while Sligo Rovers will be looking to get back on track with a big win over Kenny Shiels' Derry City at the Showgrounds.
Dundalk vs Shamrock Rovers
Stephen Bradley and his Shamrock Rovers side will undoubtedly have their work cut out as the "Hoops" will be out looking to solve the Dundalk FC puzzle at Oriel Park. The RTÉ Cameras will be looking on with intrigue and fascination at the County Louth venue.
Dundalk come into this game on an eight-game unbeaten run as an imperious "Lilywhites" defence are yet to concede their first goals of the season as Daniel Cleary and co. have impressed so far at Oriel Park.
Rovers on the other come into this game with a few selection issues as Joey O'Brien misses out once again as Sean Boyd also has to miss out on the trip up to Dundalk with injury. However, Ally Gilchrist returns to the fold after serving his one-game suspension following his dismissal at the RSC.
Dundalk will be favourites for this clash between two of Ireland's most recognisable clubs and they should come through this game with a win over their bitter rivals from Tallaght as questions still remain regarding the "Hoops'" best starting eleven.
PREDICTION: Dundalk 2-0 Shamrock Rovers
Waterford FC vs Cork City
With all the signs pointing towards a sold-out RSC for the visit of League and Cup champions Cork City, Alan Reynolds knows that if he can mastermind a massive win over John Caulfield's "Rebel Army" tomorrow night at the RSC, his newly promoted side will most certainly be seen as contenders for the title race that is already shaping up very nicely.
Waterford have started their Premier Division campaign like a house on fire and they already seem like they are in fact, the real deal as the "Blues" continue their meteoric rise from the ashes since the re-branding of the club back in 2017.
City will be keen to put their Munster counterparts back in their place after their blistering start to life back in the top table of Irish football, but John Caulfield's side will be acutely aware of the threats posed by an emerging Alan Reynold's Waterford FC side.
With the importance of the game so great for both sides, you would have to favour the League and Cup champions on this occasion, as so many of the City side have been in high pressure scenarios like this before and have often come out on top in these kinds of games.
PREDICTION: Waterford FC 1-2 Cork City
St Patrick's Athletic vs Bray Wanderers
A beleaguered Bray Wanderers make the daunting trip to Richmond Park to face a frustratingly inconsistent St Patrick's Athletic side, as Dave Mackey's men sit rooted to the bottom of the Premier Division table.
Picking up their only point on their opening day excursion to Oriel Park, the "seagulls" have struggled badly since that opening day clash, picking up some heavy beatings alongside some gut-wrenching defeats in Mackey's first foray into senior management.
"Pats" will surely be left frustrated as to how their season has begun but Liam Buckley's side will be aware of the glaring opportunity that they have to shoot up the premier Division table with a big win over the league's bottom side.
In truth, Liam Buckley's side should more than likely be able to swat aside Bray Wanderers at Richmond Park as the "Seagulls" challenges look to be building week by week as they try desperately to claw their out of a relegation dogfight.
PREDICTION: St Patrick's Athletic 3-0 Bray Wanderers
Bohemians vs Limerick
After recording a dramatic penalty shootout victory over First Division UCD at Dalymount Park in the EA Sports Cup last time out, Bohemians will be hoping to build on two wins in their last three competitive games with a win over Tommy Barrett's Limerick FC side at the home of Irish football on Friday night.
Limerick manager, Tommy Barrett will more than likely have to contend without the services of former Bohemians man Eoin Wearen and forward Daniel Kearns while the clash in the capital is also likely to be coming too soon for striker Mark O'Sullivan who has been absent since February with a hand injury. Bohemians are yet to release team news.
Undoubtedly, this game will be very difficult to call as both sides will be looking to avoid an almighty relegation dogfight down at the bottom of the table in the Premier Division, but, with home advantage, Bohemians should just about edge it.
PREDICTION: Bohemians 2-1 Limerick FC
Sligo Rovers vs Derry City
In what is the final Premier Division game of the weekend, Gerard Lyttle's struggling Sligo Rovers will be looking to get back to winning ways for the first time in almost a month with a win over Kenny Shiels' rejuvenated Derry City side at the Showgrounds.
The "Candystripes" come into this game on the back of a three-game unbeaten run that has coincided with their long-awaited return to the Brandywell but on their last away league outing, they were embarrassingly swept aside by six goals to one against a rampant Shamrock Rovers side at Tallaght Stadium.
On the other hand, Sligo Rovers did win the last game between the pair which came on the second day of the season as an Alistair Roy winner sealed the deal for Gerard Lyttle's men at the Showgrounds, but they will be well aware that this is a different Derry City challenge to that of two months ago.
PREDICTION: Sligo Rovers 1-1 Derry City

Healthy Living: Quitting SmokingTobacco use is the single most preventable cause of death and disease in the United States. More than 430,000 Americans die each year from smoking. Smoking causes illnesses such as cancer, heart and lung disease, and stroke.
When you quit, you lower your chances of getting sick from smoking. Quitting is hard. Most people try several times before they quit for good.
When you are getting ready to quit:
- Make a plan and set a quit date.
- Tell your healthcare provider that you want to quit smoking, and get medicine to help you quit.
- Tell your family, friends, and people you work with that you are going to quit. Ask for their support.
When you quit:
- Get support and encouragement. You may want to join a quit-smoking program.
- If you slip and smoke, don't give up. Set a new date to get back on track.
- After you quit, don't smoke -- not even a puff. Try to keep yourself away from all cigarettes.
Healthy Living: Preventing InjuryFollowing basic safety rules can prevent many serious injuries. Here are two checklists to follow to help keep you and your family safe.
To help protect yourself at home:
- Use smoke detectors. Remember to check the batteries every month. Change the batteries every year. You may want to use a reminder. For example, change the batteries around your birthday or some holiday.
- Lock up guns and ammunition, and store them separately.
- Keep hallways and stairwells well lit.
- Remove or repair things that someone could trip on, such as loose rugs, electrical cords, and toys.
To help protect yourself away from home:

New Railway Road in condition of neglect
The businesses situated on both sides of new railway road, leading towards city from the local railway station, are suffering badly for the last many years due to apathetic approach of authorities at local Municipal Corporation.punjab Updated: Aug 26, 2013 16:25 IST
The businesses situated on both sides of new railway road, leading towards city from the local railway station, are suffering badly for the last many years due to apathetic approach of authorities at local Municipal Corporation.
With the slightest rainfall even, the rainwater from adjoining Mandi Fantonganj, Quilla Mohalla, Dhann Mohalla and Bhagat Singh Chowk areas gets accumulated on the road and logged there for nearly a day or two.
The engineer-in-charge of the MC intentionally kept the level of the road low in order to harass the shopkeepers, people alleged.
On both sides of the road, which is also intersecting road of ward no 18 and ward no 19, only business establishments exist. Three banks are also situated on the road along with a cinema theatre. Incidentally, most of the people getting affected here are not the voters of this area, due to which they feel that their interests are being ignored by the MC from years.
Through a joint forum, New Railway Road Area Association, they tried to raise their issues at different level but failed to get any action initiated for its improvement.
The road, which is also the main entrance of the city, is full of potholes and at most of the places it was badly damaged causing inconvenience to commuters while driving.
"Three days back, a lady sitting at the pillion of a scooter carrying her four months old kid fell in the water as her husband, who was driving scooter failed to balance. Both of them were saved by the shopkeepers who were standing outside and reacted timely," said Rajiv Soni, a local businessman adding that, "In rainy days, we all become free as nobody pass through this road."
Authorities Speak
Additional Commissioner (Technical) Bridges & Roads, Kulwinder Singh when contacted said, "We are aware about the poor condition of this road. The sewerage system of this road had been re-laid and upgraded. Very soon, we will call the tenders for this road. It is sure before next monsoons, the condition of this road would be improved."

So when they said that we were supposed to animate sea creatures, I thought "Oh joy! What a wonderful time I shall have concocting the most deliciously maritime background!", more or less in those words. As it turns out, anticipation=/execution, and the background, according to the vague notions I had when I began, needs work.
Those hazy blue shapes in the back, those shapes represent how I wasn't able to think of anything more interesting beyond Corinthian pillars and rocks. The glitter effect, while cool, doesn't work on everything. Maybe rocks, but probably not menacing looking Great Old Ones who look like they were on the receiving end of a particularly festive beauty pageant. There are probably a few issues with composition, potentially due to irregular lighting. The smoke looks really amateurish.
I will definitely retouch/redo this one, uh, eventually. Before the animation is due, I think. Yeah.

Marketing and Customer Service
Short post this evening. It is more of a post to get you to think.
I was having a conversation with a customer service executive at a fairly large company today. We were talking mostly about customer service and its challenges, but something that kept coming up was marketing.
Marketing interacts a lot with customer service (see this conference) and a lot of very smart people (i. e. Seth Godin) write about it, so I don't talk about it that much. However, the more that marketing comes up in conversations about customer service, it shows that the two people understand they're related. It shows that the two people don't view customer service as a cost center.
Marketing and customer service are highly related. If you work in either department and don't see the relation between the two departments, then you need to ask someone to explain it to you (or you could keep reading).
If customer service is done well, it can serve as marketing. Great customer service creates customer evangelists. They are people who will go around telling others about how great your company is. The evangelists that great customer service can create are the best type of customers.
Marketing also includes communicating publicly. This can really tie into customer service. Blogging, customer communication and engagement, etc. can and do tie into customer service.
If the goal of marketing is to attract and retain customers, customer service naturally ties into that. Both have to be done well for a truly successful company. How do you think that marketing and customer service align?

Cycling Comeback: Embracing the Numbers/
A post from Nine2FivePro team member Brendan:
Cycling has been a part of my life from the start. My Dad became passionate about it as a military brat in Germany and passed it on to both of his sons.
Now having started a family, having two sons of my own I plan on doing the same. Having raced seriously in the nineties with a few comebacks since then I decided to take up racing again last year motivated by the prospect of showing my sons that their Dad can perhaps put up some results.
My brother Charlie had been on me about getting back into cycling and rightfully so. He knows I enjoy it, and I'm mentally at my best when I'm physically at my best. Knowing that training time would be short, he steered me from my old ways of training, with lots of miles, many at an inefficient pace with little to no data to gauge my fitness. After much dismissing of his advice he finally got fed up and gave me a Power2Max powermeter. Almost instantaneously I became hooked. Not only was it fun to have raw data to look at but I could see measurable improvements without having to wonder if I was getting better and most importantly it showed me how much more work I still had to do.
Even so it took me until this Fall to truly understand the benefits of training with a powermeter. At Charlie's suggestion I started doing hammer rides (or as he would call them, "sweet spot" rides) for a maximum of two hours concentrating on keeping the watts as high as possible even on the downhills. In the Fall my second son Quinn was born and the program fit perfectly into my life. I was able to take my oldest Kyle out in the trailer as well and hammer while he napped and generally had a good time. As I started comparing my Fall watts to my summer watts I started seeing all the time I wasted riding at a power level that wasn't going to get me anywhere. In one month in the Fall I probably spent more time over 300w than I did the entire summer. Now having focused on a plan of raising my aerobic level I can comfortably ride for long periods at over 300w. I started calling the program, "Less Hours More Watts," or LHMW.
It may be counterintuitive to start racing again at the same time your life becomes the busiest time it ever will be. Most people use the time to stop racing. However, methods exists now that didn't before which allow you to train more efficiently while drastically reducing training time. We aren't pro's that need to race for anywhere from four to seven hours. In reviewing my season most of my races will be well under three hours and not all of that time will be at high watts. Getting on the bike and hammering for an hour or even thirty minutes is worthwhile. If you need an easy day either don't ride or do 30min very easy. I know there are many who would love to race again but fear they don't have the time because of family and work obligations. I hope that I can demonstrate that this simply isn't true. It takes a new way of thinking, the ability to inflict some pain on yourself (and yes) the initial investment in a power meter.

Panel: Digital Transformation—Making Businesses "Digital Natives"
Date & Time
December 07, 2017
The Stairatorium
1210 AvidXchange Lane Charlotte, NC 28206,
Registration Deadline
December 07, 2017
Join digital transformation leaders from Levvel, Red Hat, AvidXchange, and Wells Fargo for a presentation and panel discussion on why companies like Blockbuster and Borders failed, and why it matters to a bank, insurance company, FinTech startup, energy company, healthcare organization, or other big enterprise in 2017.
Attendees of This Event Will Learn About:
Learn why companies like Blockbuster and Borders failed and why it matters to your business in 2017. The answers is only partly related to technology, but critical to remaining relevant as more businesses struggle to become digital natives.
The reality is that people, process, culture, and technology all play important roles. Come out to see industry leaders discuss how these factors play a part in every company's success—or failure—and learn about some tools that can help you be more successful as you consider digital transformation.
Join us for a happy hour and networking period after the discussion.
Who Should Attend?
If you're a leader in Application Development, IT Operations, or Product Management and are looking to understand more about the intersection of process, organizations, and tools necessary to remain relevant and competitive in a rapidly changing digital landscape, you need to be here!
Additional Details
Our panelists will discuss:
- How does "being Agile" and "doing DevOps" intersect?
- What are the key capabilities that have enabled your organization to respond to customers' needs more quickly?
- What tools help enable organizations to be more nimble and achieve their business objectives?
- How do these initiatives relate to IT cost efficiency? How are some companies seem able to do more with less?
- Microservices is the latest buzzword—are microservices really critical to success? For organizations and use cases that are a good fit for microservices, what are the foundational capabilities that are necessary to be successful?
- What role does Platform-as-a-Service play in the Agile and DevOps story? How does a PaaS relate to containers and container orchestration?
- Painting the landscape for me of PaaS and container management. Why would an organization choose something like open-source Kubernetes, Docker Enterprise, or Red Hat OpenShift? What should someone thinking about these tools make sure they are considering?

Learning From Your Peers
Now we're into 2013, I thought it would be a great time to start paying even more attention to what's happening in the lives of my fellow authors at Pagan Writers Press.
A lot has happened over the past year - as you know.
I received the first of several contracts - got published - met some great people...
And realized I'd only just begun to scratch the surface!
For those of you who are still aspiring authors - or fresh on the market - as I am...
Wow! There's still so much to learn!
Did you do enough homework as your book was coming out?
Was your pre-sales advertising aimed at the right market?
Did you target the right followers?
What incentive did you give prospective followers to begin reading your work...And then actually stay with you?
How did you get people to 'spread the word'?
You see, the harsh reality is...no matter how good your work or concept is...unless you get some of the basic things right, how will people actually find out YOU and your work?
Looking back, I can see where I made mistakes.
Hey...I'm new!
Yes, I've had a lot of experiences in life. We all have in different ways.
But, in the publishing world, I'm still learning to toddle along.
I looked at the examples set by my fellow authors and I can see where I need to improve!
So - what adjustments am I making in 2013?
1. I'm adjusting my core target audience.
In hindsight, I can see where/how I didn't get my 'core followers' quite right for 2012. So, I've started to restructure my twitters, blogs, releases etc. (The results have - already - been very encouraging). Seeing the early response - I'm keen to see where it leads.
2. Advertising.
You have to be very selective as to who/where you advertise. Costs/time/availability all come into it.
But Remember - one or two positive outlets are far better than a whole load of adverts elsewhere that won't reach the right audience.
So this year - I'm being very selective! Both for the forthcoming Cambion release, AND for the next book in the Guardian Series. (I'd love to tell you now...ha ha! But you'll have to wait and see).
3. I'll improve the personal touch.
Sometimes, 'being there' counts for so much! For me, that's quite difficult. I live on a small island and am quite cut off. However, even here on KOS, I noticed that when I got out there...(Holding book release/signing venues/radio interviews/personal appearance's at bookshops etc) - it had a huge impact.
So - I'm expanding! I have at least one very public event lined up in the UK with one of the charities I support over a three day period...(More on that another time), and...I'm starting to hunt for a sutable venue over in the US!
If the UK event goes well, I shall ensure to do something way across the water...(And keep you posted of course) !
4. look after your fans!
You'll soon start to notice who your followers are. Look after them. This year I hope to start including some of them within my blog as to how they enjoy some of the prizes/events we hold etc...and ensure to include their reviews more too!
5. Learn more from my fellow/more experienced authors.
Pagan Writers Press has some great authors. I keep abreast of what's happening in their lives, and obviously, how well they're doing. Of course, by keeping in touch, I begin to notice what they do when new releases are coming up. What they do after release. How they maintain that interest and generate new readers. And I LEARN from it. I think that...this year...I shall do that even more closely.
Staying loyal to your friends is important. Learning from them is fun. You never know when you might need their support in the future and what beneficial effects that might have in the longrun.
So - there's a busy year ahead.
Hard work is involved.
Will it be worth it?
Stay tuned - and I'll let you know :)

This '80s Fashion Trend for Spring Needs to Be in Your Closet, Stat
Listen up, trendsetting crowd. This next '80s-inspired micro-trend is Fierce with a capital F. The time has come to ditch whatever reservations you might've had about the unpredictable rock 'n' roll era and embrace slick patent leather like the true material girl that you are. Try a high-shine candy-hued rainy day slicker by day and a curve-enhancing bodycon dress by dusk for no shortage of traffic-stopping potential. Take a peek at how to wear patent leather — c'mon, you're the teensiest bit intimidated, right? — and keep scrolling for 11 pieces that deserve a top spot in your "ready to slay" wardrobe.
1. Ban.do Boogie Daze Bomber Jacket ($99): Boogie down 'til the crack of dawn is right. You can count on standing out at least a mile away when rocking this futuristic silver bomber featuring a rainbow knit ribbed trim. Maybe you're participating in a freedom march or perhaps you're heading to the skating rink — the day is young.
2. MORMO Flutter Purse in Lavender Patent Leather ($150): Take your accessories game to new heights with this monstrously chic companion that has a mind of its own (just check out that one-eyed smirk). Enter "make 'em stare" territory by styling this standout lavender purse alongside a color-block windbreaker and a denim pinafore dress.
3. ASOS Vinyl Rainmac ($68): Get ready to make it rain dolla dolla bills with this black vinyl topper that will conquer April showers in one swift move. And don't stop there: Team this wardrobe workhorse alongside a vintage rocker tee and distressed jeans for instant groupie status
4. Glamorous All the Shine Sheer Bomber ($52): Enter the unicorn of bomber jackets that will have you squealing. Besides the pretty purple iridescent hue (we die), it's the subtle sparkle action and three-dimensional sheen that's boss-babe tested and approved.
5. Topshop Vinyl Rain Mac ($110): Rain, rain come again soon, so we can put this rainy day slicker to good use. Infinitely cooler than an unsightly poncho (eww), it's guaranteed to banish a case of the outfit blahs. What rainy day blues?
6. Blank Denim Patent Pull On Leggings ($98): Oh hey, trusty patent leggings that you'll reach for without hesitation. Wear them as you would your traditional denim — give or take some added shock value — for around-the-clock appeal. Take a page from Gigi and co. by keeping things on the DL with a versatile bomber, a white tee, and some white trainers for instant street cred.
7. & Other Stories Scratch Patent Leather Sneaker ($125): Yeezys or nah? These patent leather sneakers not only bring the swagger (those velcro straps), but they're the missing puzzle piece to your '90s girl uniform.
8. Mango Vinyl Bomber Jacket ($80): Make a red haute entrance like "whoa" with this crimson bomber that's not taking no for an answer. Consider yourself officially in the running for baddest girl-boss on the block — just add a free-wheelin' jumpsuit and vampy steppers for a look that rules them all.
9. UNIF Gia Backpack ($118): Can you say next-level squad #goals. Practically off the set of Bad Blood, this alternative vinyl backpack isn't messing around one bit. Doc Martens, fishnet tights, and a slick leather biker skirt will have you ready to rage on.
10. Free People Vinyl Pocket Belt ($38): Festival swag right this way. You best believe we'll be sporting this holographic fanny pack to Coachella, Bonnaroo, and Electric Zoo. But in the meantime, make a beeline to the yoga studio (and then brunch) for a hip look that's not bummin' it in the least.
11. H&M Patent Skirt ($50): Ready to slay might as well be your middle name. Girl, you were born to take it to the streets with this black patent skirt that's an advocate for pleasure before business. Cue the OTT ruffled blouse and chandelier earrings that will hold you down during a round of speed dating.
Will you be embracing '80s-inspired patent leather for a tough girl 'tude? Follow us on Pinterest for more upcoming spring trends!

More Information
RPL fees
anjum_jabiru replied to anjum_jabiru's topic in Aircraft General DiscussionThanks guys. It's no point then in trying for a RPL if all you you intend to do is fly an RA Aus registered aircraft, now that the RAMPC (RA Medical Practitioner Certificate) is being phased out, as per CASA.
RPL fees
anjum_jabiru posted a topic in Aircraft General DiscussionHi, I just checked the CASA website and the fee for CASA RPL appears to be only $50, compared to $246 for RA-Aus. Am I missing something? If it's only $50, is it possible to fly an RA-Aus registered aircraft with just a current RPL? Thanks for your input.
Jabiru LSA vs 160
anjum_jabiru posted a topic in Aircraft General DiscussionHi everyone, I recently had an opportunity of flying a Jabiru J 160 at my local flying school. Having done most of my training in a Jabiru LSA, I found the flight controls on a J 160 way too heavy. Is this because of the larger control surfaces such as the rudder, elevator and ailerons in the J 160 compared to the LSA? Or is it due to the heavy wing loading on the J 160 as it is a much heavier aircraft with the same wings of an LSA? Has anyone else experienced the difference in the control pressures required while flying these 2 different models? Has anyone flown the Pipistrel Alpha Trainer, after flying the Jabiru LSA or J 160, and noted any similarities or differences in the control pressures between the J 160, LSA and the Pipistrel Alpha trainer? Thanks ?
errr ummm where to start?
anjum_jabiru replied to visy's topic in Just Landed...WelcomeNo worries. Just shoot. I started off my training in UK with some 45 hours in a AX2000 cyclone microlight leading to my 1st solo. I started out roughly your age, but had to stop for 5 years, then went back into it with additional 10 hours or so in a Jabiru, at The Oaks, under the expert guidance of John (Snr FI) & Dave (CFI), before taking off to the skies on my own once again. In the meantime I did about half a dozen dual hrs in a Cessna 152 and was on my way to a PPL, but decided to go the recreational route as it was much more economical. You can always upgrade to a RPL - PPL - CPL - Airline Pilot, with all your hours being counted, if you decided to go all the way. There are a lot of experts here, and I am sure you will be rightly guided. Cheers :)
Ok. Got it , so to become the native of a particular country, one needs to kill and murder the inhabitants and plunder the land. And once they have conquered the land by deception or using power against someone who is weak and vulnerable, then they become the original inhabitants . According to your logic - if countries like India & China, which have the largest armies, decide to conquer Australia in a World War 3, then everyone in India / China who moves to Australia will become natives of Australia, and will no more be immigrants! Lucky, the Indians and Chinese do not follow your logic .
Interesting approach
anjum_jabiru replied to Nico13's topic in Student Pilot & Further LearningIt's a textbook landing. You did an excellent job, with the amount of cross wind and the last minute turbulence
You are right, everyone living in Australia is an immigrant. Aboriginals too migrated here from another country, although they were the 1st immigrants! Cheers :)
Aren't we all immigrants to Australia, the land of the Aboriginals? It is the only country in the world where people have mutual respect for each other and which thrives on human values, where all the communities live in peace and harmony.
Jabiru Cockpit Sound / Voice Recording
anjum_jabiru replied to anjum_jabiru's topic in Instruments, Radios and ElectronicsHi Romeo Juliet Whiskey, I had been watching your youtube videos over the last week and think they are really wonderful and very educational. They are in high quality HD with an excellent sound system. I love watching them in my free time and intend to watch the full series. I was pleasantly surprised and feel privileged having received your response. I just want a cheap set up, hence was looking into using my existing action camera from China along with a Chinese audio recorder, which is similar to the Sony one you have but very basic and generic. I was hoping to catch the cabin sound via the existing headset mic into which we speak, which feeds into the radio anyways. If I do not get the cabin sounds using the radio attachment as expected, then alternately I might just add a 3.5mm splitter to the mic input on the audio device and feed 1 socket of the splitter into the radio and the other socket into the stand alone mic, and see if I can capture both (radio + cabin) sounds onto the audio recorder simultaneously if required. It might save me from having 2 different audio files to synchronize, if this arrangement works! Besides, my action camera has no input for an external microphone. I have not flown for 9 months as I was too busy with work, but will be flying soon once my RAA membership is reactivated. I usually fly out from The Oaks, using the school aircraft from John. It is Dave's flying school, and they have a sister school at Wollongong. Cheers :)
Jabiru Cockpit Sound / Voice Recording
anjum_jabiru replied to anjum_jabiru's topic in Instruments, Radios and ElectronicsHi Bruce, Just go into settings / menu and see that you have not set it to Auto Power-Off or Limit Video Recording duration. My Qpix has such a setting so quite possible that GoPro also has a similar setting. If yes, then disable Auto Power-Off or Video Recording duration. Hope this helps Cheers :)
Jabiru Cockpit Sound / Voice Recording
anjum_jabiru replied to anjum_jabiru's topic in Instruments, Radios and ElectronicsI have decided to use a $25 dictaphone and tuck the mic into the headset earpiece if it fits, or alternately attach it to the radio using a 3.5mm to 6.35mm adapter and a 6.35mm splitter. Eventually I will dub it onto the video. I have a Qpix action camera, so no external mic facility.

Hi guys. I am wondering what strategies do you folks follow for audio video recording in a Jabiru cockpt. I am thinking of putting an action camera to record the flight but it does not have an excellent audio recording facility. Hence I was planning to record the cockpit sound / voice separately through the headset and dub the video later on with the voice recording. Please could you let me know if you have any other better ideas that are cheap to implement, or how to go about doing voice recording using the headset attachments and what kind of adapters I may need. It is a Jabiru LSA that I am intending to fly and record. Thanks :)

Mag Checks
anjum_jabiru replied to anjum_jabiru's topic in Aircraft Incidents and AccidentsYes. No wonder I don't see much of a drop in revs on doing the mag checks. When I switch the first one off, there is almost no difference and the needle stays put. On switching the second one off there is a very slight deflection of the needle to the left, but not what I can call significant. It has had me wondering if the mags are working fine or not. But the reassurance of the engine revving alright only on one magneto at a time during the checks is enough to satisfy me that the mag check is ok.

Our Recommendation for Multi-Room Audio: Sonos
Why We Think Sonos is a Great Option for New Jersey Homes
There has never been a better time to be an audiophile. The days of sticking to one dedicated listening room are over. Instead, today's multi-room audio systems combine top-quality sound with a simple user experience and tons of options for enjoying all your favorite music, no matter what room you're in.
The question for homeowners throughout Morris County is not usually "should I get multi-room audio?" but rather "which sound system is best?" While there are many factors that will affect the answer to that question (and we encourage you to reach out to us for a more personalized response), in general, our vote goes to Sonos.
Here's why….
1. You get easy access to every kind of music you could imagine
There's no denying that people like to consume music different ways, so it's important to choose an audio system that supports your preferred music source:
- All of your digital content
Have a huge iTunes library? Easily sort through the options through the Sonos app.
- SiriusXM
The same music channels you enjoy while traveling in your car are also accessible at home.
- Internet radio
Choose from more than 100,000 free radio stations. You can enjoy your favorite local station, the station you listen to in your vacation home, or a foreign language station to immerse yourself while learning a second language.
- Music services
Sonos is compatible with all the popular music services like Pandora, Napster and Spotify, not to mention the high-res options like TIDAL and Deezer. After all, high-end audio equipment needs high-resolution music to feed it.
2. The interface is incredibly easy to use
One of the big struggles with managing music is that once you combine tons of different streaming services and huge collections of music, the app could easily get bogged down. It becomes hard to navigate all of the options and find the specific song, radio station, or streaming service that you're looking for.
That's not the case with Sonos. Their app is very straightforward and well-organized, so you won't have to waste time searching for music. Even better, Sonos makes it easy to discover new music. Say you're listening to a music channel and an interesting new song starts playing. In 30 seconds, you can create a brand new channel that explores more music like that.
You can access the Sonos interface through a desktop program, a tablet, or your smartphone.
If you're looking for a refreshing multi-room audio experience, then Sonos is the right choice for you. Of course, you don't have to take our word for it. Schedule a visit to our New Jersey showroom to hear Sonos in action and try out the interface for yourself! You can also learn more about Sonos and audio in general by visiting our Knowledge Center.

Skullpogo Review
Do you remember Enviro-Bear game for the iPhone? Now, BlinkBat Games, the creators of Enviro-Bear is back with Skullpogo, a casual action arcade game where your main character is riding a pogo stick stomping halloween creatures and that's the main gameplay for that. Trust me, stomping zombies, vampire pigs, golden bats, ghosts, and many others is so addicting especially racking up your combo without your character ever touching the ground.
You control your character by means of 3 options – accelerometer control where you tilt you device left or right, touch and point control where you drag your finger and your character will be where it's at, and lastly, on-screen left and right arrows. The tilt controls works so perfectly and is the one I prefer but the other options works just as good. You can control the height of your character's bounce by tapping the one of the three buttons on the side – low, medium, high.
As you play the game, you must stomp the creatures that arrives, this will score you points, get combos by consecutively stomping one creature to another and so on, this will rack you big bonus points. Additionally, various power-ups appear at random o the game that will make you an even more powerful pogo rider beating the hell out of the creatures. Its such a bummer that you won't be provided with any info about what a certain power-up does. Common sense will just let you know what a power-up does. But it really won't hurt if we have some more knowledge on before we even decide to pick those out.
There are two gameplay modes in Skullpogo, Classic and Halloween modes. There really isn't much of a difference between the two modes, it's very subtle like for example in Halloween mode, there is a ghost creature there where it doesn't have in classic mode. I hope there are really some huge difference between the two, enough to distinguish them gameplay-wise. Each mode consists of 5 levels, in my opinion is just enough because the main goal here is to collect the highest score possible within this 5-level limit. Perfectly suits pick-up and play situations.
And when you think you're a skilled Skullpogo player, submit your score to the online leaderboards via Openfeint and see for yourself how you compete against the world. Replayability is pretty high too with the games quirky achievements that is challenging yet so fun.
Graphics and sound looks so retro and that's a compliment. Very smooth animations and effects, its fun to see stomping on a zombie's head and see it plucking out in the air. Music is cool too and never gets repetitive after a long game.
Overall, Skullpogo is great arcadey game that you can either play for 5 minutes or even for an hour, that's how addicting this game is. Plus, online leaderboards and achievements that will last you more gameplay hours. The developers even promosed some exciting updates for the game so keep an eye out for that. Skullpogo has a great old-school presentation, its like how will Castlevania will look and sound like if they added pogos and humor. Definitely two thumbs up!

Cross posted and with thanks to Kate Belgrave
Ever since disabled man Geoff Meeghan was trapped in an Atos assessment centre a week or so ago when a fire alarm went off at the centre there's been much discussion about the accessibility – or otherwise – of the buildings that Atos is using to hold work capability assessments for the employment and support allowance. ESA is a disability allowance, so it follows that a lot of people who must attend work capability assessments are wheelchair users and/or people who have mobility problems. You'd think that at the very least, buildings would be properly adapted to make entering and leaving those buildings as easy as possible for everyone.
Au contraire.
I took the video below in September when I accompanied DPAC campaigner Patrick Lynch and his carer Stephen to the assessment centre in Archway where Patrick's WCA was to be held. I've uploaded it here to give you an idea of the rubbish which passes for accessibility in some of these centres.
As you'll see in the video, the front doors at the centre wouldn't open. A woman who was smoking a cigarette out the front came over to show us how to open the doors – she pulled them open with her bare hands. The "lift" was a single platform squeezed into the right-hand side of the groundfloor entrance. To call the lift, we had to hold the call button down and keep it held down. The door into the cupboard (which it was, literally) which housed this platform opened outwards, into the path of the wheelchair. Once inside, the platform only started moving when the call button was held down. It certainly took more than one person to operate everything.
I don't know what would have happened if there had been a fire. Using this lift for escape purposes would have been challenging, all right, especially if you tried to fit more than one wheelchair in it. There may have been a brilliant, if not brilliantly obvious, escape route out back, of course, but if there was, nobody told us about it. Would we have had to find it ourselves?

Pali is the canonical and liturgical language of Theravada Buddhism, and the language of the oldest extant Buddhist canon, the Pali Canon. It is an ancient Indo-Aryan language that has heavily influenced other languages, such as Thai and Sinhalese. As an international language, it has historically been the "lingua franca" of Theravada Buddhism.
Knowing some Pali can not only help students to understand chanting, but it is the key to accessing the closest thing available to the words of the Buddha himself, the suttas.
We are currently taking expressions of interest for a Pali evening class to be run in second semester, 2014 at UQ. Details are still being finalised.
Please email uqbuds[at]gmail.com to express your interest.

Van Dordrecht was a member of the indie rock bands Sidestar and Castella, the latter of which has the distinction of being produced by iconic producer Joe Chiccarelli (The Shins, Counting Crows).
Van Dordrecht's latest pair of singles were produced by Rian Lewis (Priory, Crosstide, Ravishers). Van Dordrecht took Lewis by surprise by moving well beyond the Tom Petty and Bruce Springsteen vibe of his last album.
Though these songs can be distilled down to piano and voice and still pack an emotional punch, they have more ambitious layers, arrangements, and their lyrical aspirations are more abstractly emotive. "The last record I released put a cap on relationship and heartbreak experiences in songs. For these singles, I felt that creating more space and time in the accompanying music, would allow more reflection on the lyrics. As a principal, we aimed for every new character, place, or thought stream introduced in the lyrics, to have a musical scene change," Van Dordrecht says.
