The aviation world got
a bit of a surprise earlier this month when Cessna announced that
it had selected Garmin's G1000 for inclusion in several of their
more rugged Single-Engine offerings… starting with the
venerable Cessna Skylane. For an announced price UNDER $300K, a 182
would be sold with a full-blown Garmin G1000 system… a price
many thousands of dollars less than the pundits thought Cessna
might actually ask for (and could in all probability, get).
In the meantime; the market is speaking vociferously in
response… advance orders number in the hundreds and it
appears that the answer to the biggest question on Cessna's mind
for next year (i.e., how many can we sell?) is likely to
be "All of Them." We shall see… but our money's on
the market response keeping the Wichita gang busy…
especially when these gadgets get fitted into the 206 line-the next
bird on the menu for the Garmin treatment.
Getting prepared for
the 2003 AOPA Expo, we were pleased to be offered the chance to be
the first to fly Garmin's competitive answer to the magnificent
flat panel offerings we're been crowing about from Chelton and
Avidyne. While we expected Garmin to know a thing or two about
designing a next-generation electronic flight instrumentation
system, we were more than slightly concerned that the latest
wunder-boxes might be ham-strung by some of the menuing and
operational "issues" currently making the GNS-430 and 530 less than
It was just a few months ago that Garmin "dropped the bomb"
with their announcement of the G1000. Garmin claimed that the G1000
was designed to be a "revolutionary avionics suite" that would
provide important flight data -- flight instrumentation,
navigation, communication, weather, terrain, traffic, and
identification -- and present it digitally via two or three large,
high-resolution displays. Lest you get prematurely bored by such
claims please note that Garmin was proposing something altogether
different… in that the G1000 was designed to be a SYSTEM
rather than an add-on flight display alternative. Garmin bragged
that they intended to "seamlessly integrate" them into a single
aircraft/flight management system. They may have been bragging, but
based on my most recent hour of flight-test time, they sure weren't
Already selected for the Cessna Citation Mustang VLJ and the
revolutionary Diamond's DA42 Twin Star; it came as yet another
surprise that one of the first airframes to sport this system was
going to be the backbone of the Cessna fleet, the 182 Skylane.
The G1000's major system components (for the 182) consist of a
tightly designed flightdeck that offers a 10.4-inch primary flight
display (PFD) and 10.4 inch multi-function display (MFD). Both
displays, highly readable and razor sharp to these tired eyes,
utilize XGA (1024x768) resolution, exceptionally wide viewing
angles (really) and clear sunlight readability (the 45 seconds
or so that I actually saw this day… Welcome to
Philadelphia). Two tightly integrated radio modules can provide
WAAS-capable, IFR oceanic-approved GPS; VHF navigation with ILS;
and VHF communication with 16-watt transceivers and 8.33-kHz
channel spacing - and closely mimic the better nature of the Garmin
400/500 avionics series (with a few welcome shortcuts thrown in to
alleviate some of the more cumbersome aspects of their
predecessors). What one would normally call an audio panel is now
mounted in between both the PFD and MFD and comprises a tall skinny
subset of the system. Surrounding each display are a number of
rotating knobs and small push-buttons that control every aspect of
the system that is isn't otherwise accomplished by the digital
audio panel.
Instead of a myriad grouping of separate boxes, the G1000's
displays are supplied with the requisite data by a series of remote
sensors and components that are either mounted forward of the
displays or in a bay behind the baggage area. Upfront (and behind
the MFD) are the engine/airframe interface unit, airdata computer,
and the rate sensor for the autopilot. Back in the tailcone
avionics bay are the AHRS, Mode S transponder with TIS, and two
communication/navigation/interface units. Included in the Cessna's
G1000 installation is one of my favorite devices, the BFGoodrich
WX-500 Stormscope (I used to beat the crap out of the one in my
Mooney while dodging and weaving through the usual Florida
thunder-boomers and other cumulo-crapola), which is standard
equipment and will display it's data on the MFD (when selected).
Out on the left wing is a full three-axis magnetic field sensor (a
magnetometer), which replaces the flux system we were used to on
conventional slaved HSIs (which may be going the way of the DODO at
this rate).
Cessna's Lori Lucion and Kirby Ortega blasted off from
Indianapolis, IFR, early Tuesday morning in order to arrive in PHL
at Atlantic Aviation, the site of what is to be the AOPA Aircraft
Display during the course of this week's breathlessly awaited
aviation love-in (it's gonna be a GOOD one, folks, if you ain't
here, you're missing out on a good thing). Shortly after checking
with the Atlantic Aviation folks (who actually treat GA like they
want our business… an amazing thing, that… good for
them), Kirby, Cessna's Flight Training Supervisor and an ANN
Reader, sat me down and did a great job of briefing me on the
fundamentals of the G1000 and introduced me to the original meaning
of the word "integrated."
Mind you, we all know the meaning of the word… but it's
become a truly mis-used appellation in trying to describe a lot of
the latest technology -- but for the first time in a while, the
word "integrated," when used in the vicinity of a G1000 seems to
have some accuracy. This is not a scattering of married-up boxes,
this is designed as an INTEGRATED flight instrumentation system
that literally stands alone to do all things we normally associate
with upwards of a dozen (often) dissimilar (and often mismatched)
Our test bed was still a very experimental airplane and our
flight test would only serve as something of a "first date." The
secondary (backup) battery system had yet to be installed, the
autopilot was INOP, and a number of features were still in the
works, but what was presented worked as advertised and presented an
excellent primer on what's to come. Getting to know a technically
advanced system like this can take a number of hours but a few
Precision approaches in borderline VFR weather would prove to be an
excellent "coming out" for this new breed of gadget. The G1000
hopes to be certified by the end of the year and Cessna hopes to be
delivering Skylanes and Turbo-Skylanes by spring time.
In a short while, Kirby walked me through the start-up and an
initial orientation by simply actuating a single battery switch and
letting the PFD spin up… in under a minute. Until actuating
the rest of the avionics, the PFD is the active component that can
be used to do initial communications, flight planning and aircraft
systems checks. In the initial presentation mode, just about every
aspect of the G1000's primary skillset is available to the pilot,
while keeping initial battery loads manageable. Kirby and I spent a
little time getting a flight plan entered, checking the ATIS and
then shut everything down and powered up several times… each
time watching the PFD come into action in under a minute (varying
from 40 to 55 seconds). After getting ready for action, we received
our clearance and taxied out for an intersection departure that
left us with only 2050 feet of runway… the controller seemed
a mite hesitant (oh ye, of little faith…) in giving it to us
but as an old time 182 flyer, I found this kinda amusing…
Skylanes eat 2000 foot runways for breakfast and leave (at least)
1000 feet left for an afternoon snack…
By the way; our testbed apparently sported most, if not all, the
latest 2004 adaptations. The cowling is a bit more aerodynamically
refined (and looks it), the interior is a cut above what I remember
for such birds, and the fit and finish were pretty darned
good-(especially internally). The external effect is visually
appealing and I understand that the little tweaks here and there
are resulting in a few more knots when cruising along. Kudos to the
folks who are doing the seats now, as mine offered better back
support than the Skylanes (I remember) of old and it sure is a lot
easier to adjust than it used to be… especially for leg
room. Well done.
Firewalling the 100 hour experimental testbed, N21454 hauled
buns, broke ground in just about 500-600 feet and was well
over a hundred feet in the air by the time we waved bye-bye to the
departure end of the runway… booking upwards at well over
1100 fpm, at 80 knots, with half tanks and the better part of 500
pounds left in the cabin (though you shoulda seen what came out of
this thing after flying in from IND… I've seen smaller
baggage loads come out of lots bigger airplanes and Lori swears
most of it wasn't hers…).
Right away, I started liking the G1000… I went straight
to the gauges right after departure and pretty much just followed
our IFR flight plan to the North and PNE for an ILS to try out the
approach manners of the G1000. Enroute, I found the layout of the
PFD to be fairly intuitive and particularly appreciated the small
map inset on the lower left of the main screen for a quick POS
reference and the unobtrusive airdata and trend presentation. On
the right, the MFD did a beautifully sharp job of offering mapping
data, traffic info, navaid presentations and melding it all in a
fairly uncluttered manner. The traffic call-outs were particularly
well designed and surprisingly unobtrusive when viewed as a subset
of the whole. The display is very sharp, screen refresh rates are
VERY fast and I was able to discern no shakes, frame- lagging or
display artifacts despite some occasional yanking and banking. The
spacious width of the PFD made for easy IFR flying and the large
format made keeping one's heading and altitude closer to their
intended values than one might experience with smaller
instrumentation. The nice thing about such formats is that they
actually promote better accuracy simply because it's much easier to
not only discern your actual position but thanks to the trending
data, it's far easier to figure out where you're going to be a few
seconds hence.
The issue of system integration is still a thorny one, but based
on an hour's sampling, I think that Garmin is on the right
track-especially for what will undoubtedly be mostly OEM G1000
installations. Comm and Nav chores can be altered from EITHER
display and the menuing will look familiar to those used to the GNS
430 and 530 (in other words, about half the aviation universe).
Throwing a quick new flight plan in on the return from PNE went
very quickly in the hands of someone familiar with the system
(Kirby, of course… I'm still very much the G1000 virgin),
and the attitude data has
a Flight-Director feel/orientation that is easy to digest
with little effort.
The ILS into PNE went fairly well. Hugging the localizer was a
pretty accurate exercise and went a lot better than my usual effort
(ever seen a drunken sailor work his way down a dark alley? Then
you've seen me on a localizer-but I've been told that the sailor
does it better…). My glideslope tracking was a little behind
(big surprise, that!) but a quick consult with the VS tape and the
trending line allowed me to make a quick correction that got me a
little closer to the program in short order. One thing that was
interesting is that with all this data in front of you, when flying
approaches in VFR conditions (even in light rain), there is little
inclination to take a peak and see how badly you're blowing the
approach. Simply put… there's better and more useful data on
the screen than there is out the windshield… and it's so
much cooler to play with Garmin's coolest video game. What's IN the
cockpit is SO much cooler than what is OUTside. No
Heading back, we ran into a bit more rain and the
visibility started deteriorating a tad. I hardly noticed. I simply
wasn't looking outside. The panel is alluring and amounts to an
excellent bit of eye candy that crams a lot of info into a couple
of hundred square inches of electronic real estate. There is
nothing that seems overtly out of place, no procedures that are
glaringly difficult or cumbersome, and having everything close at
hand, in such a tight area, sure eases the physical and visual
workload to a great degree. Further; there is a sense of
reliability that comes with flying something that boasts components
that offer documented MTBFs (Mean Time Between Failure) in the
many thousands of hours instead of the elder systems
(especially vacuum pumps) that we have endured for years, that
barely seemed to be able to earn MTBFs that might (charitably) be
measured in terms of just a few hundred hours.
By the way; in the event that your number does come up and the
electronic gremlins have decided that you're evil and must be
harassed, take comfort. If an electrical system craps out, there IS
a whole separate electrical buss that is ready, willing, and able
to operate a detuned set of capabilities, on a single PFD for at
least 30 minutes. A small red button below and between the two
displays switches either display (in order to reset whichever one
is operational) and immediately drives each display to offer a
composite data/display set that comprises what is necessary to
complete the flight as a composite representation. If that isn't
enough, there are three conventional and primary flight instruments
on the panel below the displays that consist of an elderly (OK,
ancient) vacuum driven AI, an altimeter and an ASI.
Look… one of the
problems with flying something this early in the program, and for
such a short period of time, is that all you can do is offer
impressions in lieu of more extensive experience and hard
data…. But at the same time, flights like these offer quick
proof as to whether a program is on the right track or not.
This is.
Cessna made a very good move with the intro of the G1000 on the
Skylane. The order book, alone, says as much. The 182 is one of the
most stable and rugged single-engine platforms in the known
universe (as I proved demonstrably over the years…
especially those experienced while dropping several hundred loads
of skydivers).
Admittedly; the 182 is an old airplane… but the tweaks
are attractive, the bird is still as stable as anything out there,
and it can just plain haul a load... And at as much as 150 knots
these days…. Adding a superior flight instrumentation system
to this beast for a price far lower than one might expect, makes
the C182 a heck of a value to those who are riding the fence as to
whether there is another Cessna in their future… and if
you're a 206 devotee, you're gonna LOVE what the G1000 is going to
do for you. Besides all that, when your friends see you
flying a panel that looks like was lifted from the Space Shuttle,
they are going to KNOW that you are anointed by none other than
Chuck Yeager as the best stick in the aero-world. It's THAT
I liked it a lot more than I expected I would (fearing some of
the menuing/operational issues that I've questioned in the
GNS400/500 series), the integration effort is DEFINITELY going on
the right track, and I am dying to fly this thing with an
operational auto-pilot and a chance to study up on the system so I
can spend more time with the intricacies it promises. We'll
have a lot more to say on this system as soon as we get through the
AOPA Expo (some of the more specific data is quite impressive and
intriguing) and even more as this system works its way to
certification and delivery. Cessna has promised us the chance to
get real up-close and familiar with their next generation singles
and we're anxious to take them up on it. Cessna is on the right
track here and Garmin's first showing of a fully integrated EFIS
system sure looks like a winner. Thumbs up.

Firm To Bring High-tech Jobs To Rural Texas
BELTON, Texas (AP) â¿¿ Gov. Rick Perry scooped up a shovel full of dirt Wednesday, helping to ceremonially break ground on a private firm's new $7 million information and technology facility that promises to create at least 350 jobs in a rural corner of Texas not usually known for high-tech opportunities.
CGI Group Inc. is building a 40,000-square-foot center providing technology services in Belton, about 60 miles north of Austin. It is receiving $1.8 million from the governor's Texas Enterprise Fund, which is designed to attract major business expansion and create jobs statewide.
George Schindler, president of CGI in the U.S., said the company looked at 30 communities across five states before settling on Belton. He said the area offers a skilled workforce trained at several nearby colleges and universities â¿¿ but one that won't demand the top salaries required by applicants in larger cities."We're getting access to talent that is untapped," Schindler said. Before the official groundbreaking, Belton Mayor Jim Covington addressed Perry and a crowd of dignitaries under a tent in a field where the facility will be built. He likened bringing the firm to town to being in high school and asking out a pretty classmate with lots of suitors. "CGI is the head cheerleader and we wanted to date her. We asked and she said, 'yeah, maybe,'" Covington said. "Today, we're getting married." On a more serious note, Schindler said incentives from state and local government helped bring CGI to Belton. Texas has long attracted large companies, including Apple Inc., to places like Austin, but Belton is the kind of locale that cutting-edge firms likely wouldn't have considered without support from the Texas Enterprise Fund, Perry said. The governor said the state "has invested ample resources" in enticing prime job creators and academic researchers to Texas â¿¿ even if it meant luring them away from opportunities elsewhere.

The release of Blood of Eagles is still scheduled for December 6. Thanks for your understanding.
Blood of Eagles
Ten years in the making! A virtual cast of thousands! Peter Jackson, Ridley Scott in deathmatch for rights!
At long last, The Bow of Heaven trilogy will be off the bucket list with the release of Blood of Eagles. I admit, it took a bit out of me. Here is a picture of what I looked like when I began writing this 1,400 page saga in 2004:
And this is what I look like now:
Sometimes, I even look like this, especially in the morning (ask Steph):
Pre-orders are now being accepted here for a December 6 release.
More good news. The first book in the trilogy, The Other Alexander, will be available for free beginning November 26 until Blood of Eagles goes on sale.
So, you're probably thinking, that's it for Alexandros and company. Andy's had it up to here with togas and swords and bows and arrows. No duh. Having said that, a prequel entitled Melyaket, a Tale of Ancient Parthia, is planned for release either in 2016 or 2017, depending on how quickly I record the audiobook for A Mixture of Madness.
Wait, what? It's true, I'm going to give it a shot. The first audiobook is doing quite well, so I thought I'd try my hand at this voice acting thingy. It could be fun, although the only place that is even remotely soundproof in our house is our clothes closet. Claustrophobia, here I come.
Honored to be a Bridesmaid
Sometimes not winning feels just like winning. And remember folks, book three of the The Bow of Heaven trilogy will be out by the end of the year. The working title is Blood of Eagles. Thank you all for your patience.
HNS Indie Award Shortlisted Author : Andrew Levkoff
But It's A Dry Heat
Charity for the Gatekeepers
Reading (pardon the pun) between the lines, Patterson also fears for the future of those monolithic publishers who are getting elbowed out of the selection process of what the public should be reading. Who are these nefarious nudgers? Why, it is the great unwashed public itself. Heaven forbid they be allowed to decide what they want to read!
The heart of the target of Patterson's campaign is Amazon, also a bookstore, but one that happens to champion ebooks and new, even self-published authors. It is no longer necessary to beg for an agent or sift through a pile of publishers' rejection letters while waiting and hoping to get published. Anyone can upload their oeuvre and if people like you and me like it, it may just become a best-seller.
Rather than go through Patterson's argument point by point, I'd like to introduce you to J. A. Konrath, another best-selling author who also happens to be a champion of self-publishing and has been almost since its inception. Here's a link to his post regarding Patterson; if you listened to the NPR interview and felt that James was sprouting a halo and wings, I urge you to consider the flip side of this discussion. Here it is: http://jakonrath.blogspot.com/2014/02/konrath-on-patterson-deux.html
The Star-Gazer
Mom had me bundled up so thoroughly I could barely move to adjust the instrument, let alone climb the backyard stairs that led to the roof—I looked like a golem with a baseball bat. I remember, too, that my coat had these flat, metal snaps that locked together in what I imagined might be similar technology to that used by Dr. Frankenstein to secure his creation to the laboratory table. My cap had those ears that pulled down from the inside in what was the height of young men's haberdashery chic for 1961. I was enough of a nerd to incorporate the coat into my daily flights of science fiction fantasy as space cadet uniform, radiation shield or upper body strength super-enhancer, but even I knew that hat had "dork" written all over it.
I don't remember how she found it, but one day when I got home from school and tossed my dinosaur repulsion barrier (coat) on my bed, its large, circular communicator (yellow bus pass) glowing brightly, I realized I had thrown it on top of something she had left on the bedspread for me.
It was a book, but unlike previous works that opened the world of science and discovery to me, like Paul de Kruif's Microbe Hunters and All About Dinosaurs by Roy Chapman Andrews, this one looked like an airplane
This cinder block, written in 1939 by Hungarian Zsolt de Harsanyi, translated into English by Paul Tabor, was a biography of Galileo Galilei called The Star-Gazer, and although it was twice as thick as any book I had read up until then, I consumed its pages as if they were made of Hershey bars.
Now, fast forward 50-odd years or so to a strange package arriving in the mail last week. Another book, the one pictured to the right, in fact. One of the two authors was Dr. Zsolt Harsanyi, the grandson of the man who penned The Star-Gazer. Dr. Harsanyi directed the first assessment of biotechnology for the U.S. Congress' Office of Technology Assessment and served as a consultant to the President's Commission for the Study of Ethical Problems in Medicine and Biomedical and Behavioral Research.
And here he was, having found me through the miracle of the interweb, mailing me his own 1981 work on the ethics of bioengineering. Did I say 1981? I did. Dr. Harsanyi was one of the first to wrestle with the "can we/should we" questions of genetic engineering. I had posted a comment about his grandfather's work someplace like Goodreads, and Dr. Harsanyi had used (I imagine) his NSA contacts to find out where I lived. His kind note to me was written from the Budapest Marriott!
I hate to get sappy (no I don't, not really), but I imagine Galileo would find it as astonishing and wondrous as I that two strangers could reach across the planet and find each other in this marvelous way. I wish my mother was still around so I could tell her this story. She'd flip.
Those Crazy Kids at Amazon
Since you have naturally bought it already, please tell your friends so they can get it (ridiculously) cheap starting this Sunday. www.amazon.com/dp/B00AI4GX90
Since the publication of A Mixture of Madness last December, I have had a little difficulty striking the flint under the tinder of book three in The Bow of Heaven trilogy. Not only have the vicissitudes of life intruded…. What kind of a word is that, anyway? Vicissitudes. For one thing, it's a word whose final "s" is almost always inextricably wrapped about the "o" in the phrase "of life." For another, it's a word whose meaning has eluded me for the past, oh, 40 years. I thought it meant a necessary intrusion, but it doesn't. It means ups and downs, an alteration or variation in the state of things. It's one of those words that shouldn't have a negative connotation, but does, like "frisbee" or "sherbet."
As I was saying, the imposition of life, planning a trip to Italy, buying a house, preparing to leave my day job to write full-time, these stressors, while they have not quite given me a case of writer's "b-word," have stolen hours and attention from the keyboard. Once you stop writing on a daily basis, once in fact, that you've left your virtual pen and ink drying in the sun for weeks at a time, is it hard to get started again? A bit, yeah. Especially when you're trying to pull together characters and chronology from two previous novels and 900 pages of narrative.
"Oh stop your bellyaching and get on with it!" That was the imagined voice of George R. R. Martin, who has a tad more to remember than I as he soldiers on trying to stay ahead of HBO.
A nice review came in last week. I mention it because of the odd sensation of vertigo I experienced just before I clicked on the link sending me to the site where I could read it. I wish I was the kind of person to whom reviews were like rain on a duck's beak, or better still, that stalwart sort who, with backbone stiff and chin held high, shuns them altogether. I'm not. I read them and try to learn from them. I will even accept your castigation and admit that when a particularly inspiring review flies across the threshold, the bellows of encouragement begin pumping harder. (Aren't true artists supposed to be consumed by their calling, eating to write, not the reverse? Okay, that's not me either. Guess I'm an untrue artist.)
Last year I was honored with the silver award in historical fiction by Readers' Favorite for The Other Alexander. A prerequisite for winning an award this year for A Mixture of Madness is a good review from the nice folks at RF. So when the email came in announcing the review's arrival, I found my toes curled over the edge of an egotistical precipice: I realized that anything short of a 5-star review would be bitterly disappointing. Yes, they did like it, it did capture five of the fiery buggers and I breathed a huge sigh of relief. But this mixture of madness (!) must stop. Should I now be crushed if AMOM doesn't do as well as TOA when the awards are handed out? For crying out loud, who gives a flying Fig Newton, as long as a few folks out there are buying the books and enjoying them?
Ahhhh. There's the rub. Awards help sell books. They get you noticed, and help do for self-published authors what the traditional publishing houses used to do for their stable of authors under contract. In the end, however, it is just too crazy-making to worry one way or the other. So my advice to aspiring authors which I must work to heed myself is this: submit your work for the reputable awards, hope your work is regarded with kindness, and keep your head down and your fingers limber. Kurt Vonnegut said it best: "Write to please just one person."
Comma again?
Possibly due to a stint in an English grammar school in the '60's, or to a mother who feigned an English accent whenever she was nervous, I was taught to omit it. I didn't even know until recently there was any debate about it; anyone who tossed the extraneous mark into a sentence was not only wasting a keystroke but possibly inciting to riot in as many as three or four post-graduate composition aeries around the globe. Read on and you will see, as I did, that there are occasions where the little curly devil's presence is appropriate and appreciated.
(Apologies to Billy Tucker for the black eye I gave him in 5th grade. Billy, please pass along a current address and I will remit the $2.00, with interest.)
I Never Learned to Play the Trumpet
So here goes. February 1, the exclusive, prestigious guardians of all fictional writings historical, responsible for ruining innumerable toes of otherwise impeccable Sloane Street brogues as they are slammed unceremoniously out into a cold London drizzle, the Historical Novel Society has seen sit fit to bestow (for the second time running) an Editors' Choice accolade on the second book in The Bow of Heaven series, A Mixture of Madness.
Last year, the Society was kind enough to single out the first book in the series, The Other Alexander, with the same honor. Here is what they had to say:
"I am ancient now far beyond my fair share of years," Alexandros, the slave Alexander, tells us at one point in Levkoff's lavishly detailed and exuberantly intelligent second volume in his "Bow of Heaven" series about the smart, opinionated philosophy student who becomes the slave to the wealthiest man in Rome, Marcus Crassus. Readers need not read the first volume in order to enjoy this current one, and Roman history buffs will be able to guess the shape of the new book's plot: Crassus, financier, doting father and husband, disgruntled triumvir, and would-be conqueror of the East. Levkoff has Alexander the slave at his master's side through almost everything, without ever sentimentalizing his slave status (Crassus may like Alexander, but he's also quick to threaten floggings when he's in a bad mood) or filling the character with improbable braveries.
The book is filled with intrigue and action, especially in its final act when Crassus is bent on marching to the hostile kingdom of Parthia and almost certain doom. Along the way, Alexander himself grows and changes ("I love and am loved," he tells us at one point, "I have friends, and a life that may justly be called my own"), and readers are drawn along by the author's sharp ear for dialogue and his impeccable dramatic timing.
To KDP Select or not to KDP Select
Amazon.com's KDP (Kindle Direct Publishing) Select program has been batted back and forth from every independent author and publisher from here to Singapore and back. Is it a sellout or a way for struggling artists to be seen and sold by the Jupiter of our solar system's publishing planets? If you sign one of your books up for KDP Select, you must agree not to publish that ebook with any other company: not Apple, Kobo, Smashwords or the six-year-old kids selling paperbacks with lemonade on the corner.
If you join, your books can be loaned out in the Kindle Lending Library, and each time that happens, you get about two bucks. You can also select five days during each 90-day sign-up with KDP to list your book for free, which will hopefully skyrocket your ratings and subsequently increase your at-money sales. Finally, you will be eligible for 70%, not 35% royalties for books sold in India.
Every struggling author already knows all this. I was spurred to write this entry when I read an article in this month's Association of Independent Authors, "7 Things Joining KDP Select Can and Can't Do for You," posted by M. Louisa Locke, a quite successful author of San Francisco historical mysteries. Here's a plug and a link:
Ms. Locke argues that if your book is on one of Amazon's bestseller lists or high up in one of the popular browsing categories, then members of Amazon Prime can borrow your book for free and you can cash in. In 2012, she earned over $8,000 in this way with her two books, Maids of Misfortune and Uneasy Spirits. Imagine how well she did with regular sales! Congratulations, Ms. Locke! The author also says that offering certain books for free (which Amazon will only let you do if you sign up for KDP Select) has brought her increased revenue through additional visibility.
œ If you are just getting started, as I am, KDP Select is a way of admitting that you need a leg up, and Amazon's program is a generous lift in the right direction. No one, by a factor of about 10, can come close to matching the marketing power of Amazon.com, so while I am building a following, I don't believe I am hurting the self-publishing industry as a whole by cutting my books off from Smashwords (whom I deeply respect) or from any other venue. I don't sell that many books to begin with (between 100 - 200 a month), so giving Amazon the "monopoly" of my books means losing only a couple of sales at most at those other virtual stores.
However, in my opinion, an author that has achieved a certain level of success, and each knows what that must mean monetarily, ought to leave KDP Select. In the long run, books should be available everywhere in every format. If the reader is the true leader of this new revolution in publishing, then she and he ought to be able to find any book they want wherever they want in any format. If and when my writing feathers become stable enough to fly on my own (they won't, if I keep writing pathetic metaphors like this), I'll tumble from the warm, nurturing nest of Amazon's KDP Select program and find my way back into iPads, Nooks and Sonys. Splat.

The Janitorial Closet Makeover
As part of a charity event, several luxury apartments in a prestigious Chicago condominium were opened for visitors to admire. It gave people an opportunity to see "how the other half lives." One unit especially caught the attention of many visitors, not only because of its design and furnishings, but also because of the scores of closets. In fact, there were so many that some nosy visitors decided to open a couple. To their surprise, they found the closets dirty … Continue reading
For Best Results, Mix It Up
When it comes to spray equipment, mixing products well is critical. This is particularly true for landscape and golf applications that involve products that are not water-soluble, such as granular fertilizers. A number of problems may occur if a product is not mixed well: • Incorrect or uneven application rates. In either case, money will be wasted on buying the extra product, redoing the work, or fixing undesired results. • Tank buildup. This occurs when materials settle at the bottom … Continue reading
Is There A Future In The Past?

It never occurred to me, but the vast majority of my "free" time is spent in a park. According to my calendar, my family visited nine parks a total of 12 times in three different cities last week. The week before, we visited 11 parks in two different states. In fact, as far as I can tell, the last time somebody in our family didn't set foot in a park was February 28. Today is May 14.

"Model" Behavior
Transforming concepts into reality is very much like combining music and words: one method of communication helps get the idea across. So, although the "toolboxing" technique featured in this column is original to the parks and recreation profession, it should not be a surprise that a similar approach–in a totally different field–was conceived in the early 1960s: Model-Netics. The brainchild of Harold S. Hook, Model-Netics formally was introduced to the insurance industry in 1971, and continues to thrive today. Hook … Continue reading

Student Profile
Kate Edwards, MILR '08
A short tale on why Kate has chosen HR
My name is Kate Edwards, and I'm a first year MILR student here at Cornell University. My interest in human resources is multifaceted. The most obvious link between my background and my goals to study and work within this field is rooted in my undergraduate cultural anthropology major at the University of the South (Sewanee). Cultural anthropology, much like organizational behavior studies, works to understand human behavior, and makes its assertions based upon participant observation, data manipulation, and analysis, with a focus upon objectivity. But the greatest reason anthropology has led me to the field of HR is that it has intensified my fascination with unearthing patterns, teaching me to see them in the habits, interactions, motivations, objectives, and self-representation of human beings.
I have studied and worked abroad several times, as a student in France in high school, college, and graduate school, and recently as a teacher in Costa Rica. My experiences, professional and academic, have focused upon building relationships and networks of communication. After college, I volunteered as an interpreter for the Special Olympics World Games, where I worked with people from all over the world, serving populations who had distinctive and pressing needs for culturally-specific personal, medical, emotional, and linguistic support. Shortly thereafter, I worked in public relations and marketing for the Empire State Games on behalf of the New York Lottery, learning the ins and outs of the bureaucratic organization of public service.
In pursuit of a Master's degree at Middlebury College's program in Paris, I examined the social importance of specific mechanisms of communication in France, and specifically political theater and how it has mutated over time. Since then I have dedicated myself to building strong and lasting educational programs with an international focus, helping the State University of New York to found the Neil D. Levin Graduate Institute of International Relations and Commerce and leading Virginia Tech's efforts in the field of study abroad. This past year in Costa Rica, I taught English to the children of a small town buried high in the cloud forest, and worked hard to convey the importance of preserving natural resources, attending school, and respecting family, classmates, teachers, community members and tourists, all the while exchanging observations with my students about the remarkable differences that exist among peoples.
The thing is, I've discovered that Human Resources, and especially when practiced in global companies, is a big conglomeration of all the elements I've ever loved in my past jobs; it involves heavy doses of relationship-building, intercultural and interpersonal communication development, and puzzle-cracking. At Cornell, I am preparing to do the people work that each and every organization relies on to be successful. I'll be driving strategy through relationship management, and will work as an organizational architect to achieve optimal levels of job satisfaction and productivity among workers, and to enable them to work together to achieve organizational and personal goals in the best possible way. This is where the real action happens. What an exciting place to be!

Post-game breakdown: Central Connecticut
As expected, UConn cruised to victory.
UConn is a surprising 7-2 heading into an exam break after beating Harvard, 57-49, Friday at Gampel Pavilion.
Nothing comes easy for these Huskies but they keep finding ways to win.
Sophomore DeAndre Daniels played the starring role, scoring a career-high 23 points. Sophomore Ryan Boatright finished with 16 points.
The Huskies were out-rebounded (27-20) for the eighth time in nine games. Their bench provided only eight points – all in the final 10 minutes. And they allowed Harvard to shoot 48.8 percent.
But they won, and that's all that really matters.
"Hopefully, we just continue to play like this and find a way to win," coach Kevin Ollie said.
Some news, notes and quotes from post-game:
-- Could Daniels become the third scoring option that UConn needs?
Time will tell.
Daniels had his best game despite playing with a sore lower back. He's been suffering from back spasms since the North Carolina State game on Tuesday.
Defenses are focusing on containing the backcourt of Shabazz Napier and Boatright. Daniels went 9-for-12 from the field and added four rebounds. He's the first non-guard to lead the Huskies in scoring.
"I can help them and take the load of them because everyone is going to be scouting us and trying to get us out of our game," Daniels said. "I just need to step up and help and get the load off of their back."
"He decided to play today," Ollie said. "And that's what DeAndre can do."
-- Ollie changed the starting lineup for the first time all season. Junior Enosch Wolf replaced junior Tyler Olander at center.
Wolf had four points and zero rebounds in 20 minutes. Olander had four points and two rebounds in 20 minutes.
"He had a couple of dunks, but I need more rebounds," Ollie said of Wolf.
Ollie added that the competition for starting center position remains open.
-- UConn forced a season-high tying 18 turnovers, leading to 22 points. The Huskies ties a season-low for points allowed.
"Our defense was great," Ollie said.
-- Napier had just six points but made a major impact on the game. He had season highs in assists (9), rebounds (7) and steals (4) in 38 minutes.
"I love passing the ball and getting rebounds and assists," Napier said. "I don't really care too much about scoring as long as my team wins."
He went scoreless in the first half and made his first basket with 7:40 left in the game. His 3-pointer came during a key 13-2 run that turned a tight 33-32 game into a 46-34 lead.
Ollie loved Napier's assist-to-turnover ratio (9 to 1).
"That's better than me," said Ollie, a former UConn and NBA point guard.
-- Ollie made a point to praise the season-high home crowd of 9,113 fans.
"Our sixth man – our crowd – was unbelievable. I definitely want to praise them."
-- Reserve guard R.J. Evans played just seven minutes. He fell hard on his bad right shoulder while hustling back to make a play on defense.
"I aggravated it a little bit," Evans said.
Evans will get an opportunity to heal up during the exam break.
-- The Huskies didn't receive a point from their bench until junior Niels Giffey scored off an alley-oop with 9:54 remaining in the game. He finished with four points in 21 minutes after scoring just two in the previous 49 minutes over two games.
-- Freshman guard Omar Calhoun has struggled lately. He went 0-for-6 from the field and had three turnovers. He has 15 turnovers in the last four games.
-- UConn is off until Monday, Dec. 17, when it hosts Maryland-Eastern Shore in Hartford.
-- Check out the attached video of Daniels who met with the media after the game.
As expected, UConn cruised to victory.

Random Quote, Random Event
This post should prove that I am easily amused.. After adding a submitted event called the 1st Annual Motorcycle Skills Competition and Safety Seminar to welcomebikers.com motorcycle event listings I always like to check the listing(s) to make sure every things ok. When I checked out this event I noticed the random quote that displays above listings was from Henry Winkler aka The Fonz
You see, I don't know how to ride a motorcycle actually.
I would probably have had a really good laugh if the 1st Annual Motorcycle Skills Competition and Safety Seminar was being held in Milwaukee.

The Lady Mustangs are by no means over the loss of their Sectional Title. They held 4 consecutuive Section Three Titles losing last season to Little Falls. In an attempt to gain it back, they have started training early. Part of their early conditioning includes a trip to the SUn and Sticks Tour in Orlando Florida in August 2008. They have busy physically conditioning as well as fundraising. A basket raffle held on 4/6/08 at the VFW in Winfield as well as a donkey ball game in 5/08 are just some of the highlights. The trip has been a tool to foster group unity and to force the Ladies to train and be physically tough early on in the season with the hopes of reclaimimg their title back.Join us for our events and be ready for a tough fight this season from these ladies.

St. Mary's cardiovascular surgeons and a dedicated heart surgical team use advanced technology to provide you the best of care.
Common cardiovascular surgery procedures include:
Coronary artery bypass surgery: St. Mary's offers two methods - on pump and off pump. The on pump technique uses heart and lung machines that keep the heart from beating while performing bypass grafts. The off pump technique uses advanced care technology to stabilize the beating heart while the bypass grafts are completed.
Minimally invasive heart surgery: a surgical procedure that uses small incisions to quicken the healing process.
Transmyocardial revascularization: also known as TMR, this procedure uses a laser to treat angina symptoms.
Left ventricular assist device: also known as LVAD, a machine assists the heart while patients await transplants.
Endoscopic vein harvesting: a minimally invasive procedure to obtain veins for grafting.
Thoracoscopy: a procedure that uses minimally invasive techniques for vascularization of the chest cavity.
Valve replacement/repair: a procedure used to replace or repair malfunctioning or diseased valves.

Daniel Artest rants and raves plenty on Twitter about his life, his job, his basketball, his kids, people in general and his brother in particular.
Most times he is supportive of Ron and the Lakers. Others times, such as Monday's musings leave you scratching your head. Then again, Ron leaves you wondering plenty by the things he says.
"My gut feeling is that Ron gonna get traded next season."
"It's a gut feeling. I think Ron needs to be in the offense more. ESP in the post."
"Just my thoughts tho."
While Ron hasn't been playing well offensively, his defense lately has made up for his mental errors. Maybe Daniel is hoping Ron gets traded to his beloved Spurs (20-3), so he only has to support one team.

United Launch Alliance (ULA) has urged its employees represented by the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM) to vote this Sunday, May 6, in favor of a new three-year contract. The proposed contract would cover represented employees located at ULA's production operations in Decatur, AL, and at ULA's launch operations in Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, FL, and Vandenberg Air Force Base, CA.
On May 2, 2012, ULA presented its final offer to the IAM. The IAM's negotiating committee has recommended that its members reject ULA's proposed contract and vote to authorize the IAM leadership to call a strike.
"We encourage all IAM represented employees to become familiar with the details of ULA's offer and to exercise their right to vote for this contract," said Michael Gass, president and chief operating officer. "This is an excellent contract which recognizes the value and contributions the union employees bring to our mission of delivering critical capabilities for our nation."
The offer provides substantial wage increases and pension increases over the life of the contract. "The proposed contract is fair, competitive and in the best interest of ULA and our employees," Gass said. "We strongly encourage the union membership to review the proposed contract, see how much the contract has to offer them and their families, and vote in favor of ratifying the proposed contract," he added.
Highlights from ULA's proposed three-year contract include:
"We are asking the IAM to transition to a new retirement plan for future new hires," Gass said. "This is an important step ULA is taking to remain competitive in our industry and it is what the company has asked salaried employees to do since 2011. The vast majority of companies, including many government contractors and government agencies, no longer offer defined benefit pension plans to new hires."
According to Gass, ULA is taking action to position itself for the future. "We're making the modifications outlined for newly hired and rehired employees to remain competitive," Gass said. "We're doing this while maintaining and improving the defined benefit pension for current employees. Under the proposed contract, ULA employees continue to be well paid in comparison to others in the communities where they live and work."

The mission of the Juvenile Court of Dawson County is to ensure that children whose well-being is threatened shall be assisted and protected and restored, if possible, as secure law-abiding members of society; that each child coming within the jurisdiction of the court shall receive, preferably in the child's own home, the care, guidance, and control that will be conducive to the child's welfare and the best interests of the state; and that when a child is removed from the control of his parents, the court shall secure for the child care as nearly as possible equivalent to that which his parents should have given the child.
Judicial Appointment
The Judges of the Dawson County Juvenile Court are appointed to a four-year term by the Superior Court Judges. A judge must be at least 30 years of age, a citizen of the state for at least three years, and have practiced law for at least five years.
The Judges are required to attend a minimum number of hours (12) of specialized training each year to maintain eligibility for the position. The Council of Juvenile Court Judges of Georgia certifies the training.
Deprivation cases are assigned to the Judge by the Clerk of Court upon the filing of a Juvenile Complaint. Though there are exceptions, once a child is assigned to a judge, all of that child's subsequent deprivation or custody complaints will also be assigned to that judge. Other types of cases are scheduled for court at which time a juvenile judge will be presiding.
Department of Juvenile Justice (DJJ)
The Dawson County Department of Juvenile Justice is the direct contact agent with the youths on probation. Most Probation Officers are assigned to children who attend specific schools so that the officers work in a small geographic area. The officer's job is to help the child succeed on probation, but he/she is also responsible for enforcing the directives issued by the Court. The DJJ Officer performs frontline duties by visiting with the youthful offender at school, home and other locations on any given day or night to ensure compliance with the Court's orders. Any violation of the Court's orders by a juvenile offender is referred to the assigned Probation Officer for recommendation to the Court for consequences. The Juvenile Probation Officer is required to maintain a detailed record of contacts and conduct of his/her assigned juvenile offender.
Family Therapists
Family Therapists assist the Court. The therapists have a Masters Degree from an accredited college or university. The therapists advise DJJ Officers and Judges on problem cases as well as provide professional assistance in crisis intervention, individual, family and group therapy for the Court's clients.
