Actually placing new units in Berlin and then railing them might be worse than just placing them near the front as the the strategic move costs lots of supplies (but no fuel).
The HQ missing supply is just a glitch in the network, but from now on the occasional unit will be OOS, after crossing the Dniepr line the rear most units will be more and more OOS as the supplies go to the units furthest advanced into the enemy territory.
You can not build enough infra to cover all provinces!!! I had to realize that a long time ago :/ there are certain paths that will gradually emerge as you advance and sometimes they will not be used after you advance beyond a certain point. Identifying the paths is the key they will mostly be single province paths and might change suddenly when you liberate a province that is far behind the front line which then becomes the best path.
When you are nearing the Stalingrad line and your starting to get problems with front line supplies, withdraw all armour and many planes, then all mech, then the rest of the bombers. This might be less of a problem here as you have few axis troops to help you, but will eventually be the case if the fight continues.

Rafaela Stretch Lace Top 20 20
Versitile! Like it well enough to order a second color (cobalt blue is terrific color) in jade. Runs a bit lg. though it will work, but I sized down on the 2nd one, hope it''s not TOO small! September 12, 2014
Inconsistent sizing I had bought one of the t-shirts for myself and the size was perfect. However, I ordered one for my friend in medium and it was huge. The one in small fit her perfectly, but it meant the hassle of returning the medium. Additionally, she has not worn a small in years! The sizes seem inconsistent. August 22, 2014
Hand Wash I bought 2 of these and I love them, however I washed and dried one in the machine and it does not wash well. its all snagged. July 31, 2014
Bright! I bought the green and it is bright! But that is just the color I wanted so I am happy. Going on a Mediterranean cruise soon and this will be perfect with white pants and chunky jewelry for dinner on the ship. The fit is a little longer than your average t-shirt, which is a definite plus! July 18, 2014
Size, again, an issue First ordered "coral" too orange. Fit well, color not good for me. Exchanged it for aqua, too snug. Had to send back, so sorry, very nice. July 9, 2014
Good with reservations Wish the lining and the outer lace were tacked together at the bottom as one would ride up without the other. Runs long. June 30, 2014
Pretty Top I ordered this in a PL. I had to exchange it for a PM because the neckline gapped a little. I haven't received the exchange yet. I'm hoping that the fit and length are satisfactory as I can see wearing this top a lot. Thanks for the postage free exchange. June 26, 2014
Runs very large I ordered Petite Med. at first which was way too big so I returned it and ordered a Petite Small which was again very large. I returned it. I was disappointed to not be able to keep the item since I thought it was very nice. June 25, 2014

Phoronix: KDE SC 4.6 Release Candidate 1 Makes It Out
As a Christmas present for KDE users around the world, the first release candidate for KDE Software Compilation 4.6 has emerged this morning. After being in beta for about one month's time, the developers have issued the first of two release candidates. The final release of KDE 4.6 is meanwhile scheduled to take place on the 27th of January...
Yeah, just like with 4.5, pim was supposed to come with a 4.5.x release and it never came. It is possible this will happen again, and it will be postponed for 4.7...
I hope it never comes. If it comes, then I will no longer be able to avoid installing nepomuk and akonadi with KDE.
You don't need nepomuk for akonadi.
In any case I'd prefer if the pim-team simply said "When it's done".
As for KDE 4.6, I wish KWin would somehow double in performance. Kwin is the greatest stumbling block when moving from Gnome/Compiz to KDE: with the former, Opera, Firefox and Chrome scroll 100% smoothly (85fps on my monitor). With the latter, all three browsers fall to half or one third that rate and feel awful.
Why not use KDE + compiz?
Compiz is not in any way dependent on GNOME. I used to run it with KDE, but eventually switched to KWin because it's a much better WM and the performance didn't bother me much.
Because it's suboptimal. Maybe not so much for somebody used to Compiz, but as you said, Kwin is ahead in terms of, duh, window management. I don't think Compiz integration in KDE is superb either.Originally Posted by pingufunkybeat
Hang on. I agree Kwin is a better WM, and the effects have a more subtle and professional touch. The downside is that it performs badly, and I don't think the graphics quality is any better--particularly the cube.Originally Posted by Mr. James

Pangya Overview
Pangya is a simple to play golfing MMO with anime-style graphics. While there is no persistent world, players can host a variety of game types through the lobby. Play with up to four players at a time in the standard versus mode, or host tournaments with up to thirty participants. New players have the option of playing through a short tutorial which explains to game's basic controls. There is only a single character and limited appearance customization options, though there several unlockable characters that can be used later on, each with a different distribution of the game's five stats. Clothing and other items purchased via the shop with the in-game currency (called Pang) can also boost stats.

Pangya Review
By Erhan Altay
Pangya was originally developed by Ntreev but is published by a variety of companies in different regions. The game was known here in North America as Albatross18 and was hosted by OGPlanet, the same portal that publishes games like LaTale & Cabal Online. In early 2009 OGPlanet decided to close its Albatross18 servers (mainly due to a low player population), but luckily Ntreev decided to keep the game running. The game was re-launched under its original title in mid-April with the ability for former players to migrate their characters from the old service to the new one.
Golf Meets Anime
Pangya isn't the only golfing MMO currently available, its main rival is Games Campus's Golf Online. But while both are centered on the same sport, they look and play much differently. Like Ntreev's other two games, Grand Chase and Trickster Online, Pangya has distinct, anime-style visuals, whereas Golf Online stresses realism. Which of these two you happen to prefer is a matter of personal taste, but it's obvious that Pangya is the more casual, light-hearted game of the two. Character creation is extremely simple; there is only a single avatar choice and your gender is determined by your selection during account creation. There are a few hair and shirt colors, but that's about it.
Golfing Techniques
After character creation, players are taken to the main screen with several options available. The first of these is the game's optional tutorial. Luckily, this tutorial is short so go ahead and run through it at least once. The tutorial is broken down into several stages, with each stage asking you to play a hole as a sort of summary. Stage one explains camera controls, use the arrow keys to rotate and the '0′ & '1′ keys to get a bird's eye view of the map and the general idea of where you're aiming. All players have a full range of clubs which can be switched by by holding shift and using the arrow keys. The game does a good job of auto-selecting a club for you depending on your distance from the hole, but more advanced players may want to make their own decision on that matter. The second stage concerns hitting the golf ball, which is a two stage process. First, initiate the swing by hitting space, then hit space again as the bar on the bottom fills. The slider will then start moving backwards towards a white line – hit space as near the line as you can to increase your accuracy. Getting the slider to line up perfectly will make your swing a 'Pangya' which turns the ball blue as it travels through the air. The third stage explains bunkers, or sand traps, and how more force is required to hit a ball out of them. The last stage teaches players how to hit the ball when it's in the green and near the hole.
Shopping for the Right Gear
Players start Pangya with 3,000 Pang, the game's currency. The shop has plenty of clothing and items for sale, though most are prohibitively expensive. Almost any shirt, pair of pants, or shoes that boosts one of your five stats (Power, Control, Accuracy, Spin, or Curve) costs over ten-thousand Pang. The few items that don't boost stats and are purely for appearance only cost about a thousand or so, but there are not enough of these items. I used my starting cash to buy a cowboy hat and a shirt but didn't have enough left over for a pair of pants. The default shorts were not my style, but I was stuck with them. Besides clothes, there are new clubs for sale though – some are very silly in nature. I saw a huge mace and other outrageous items which further emphasize PangYa's casual credentials. A whole section in the store is dedicated to consumables like power potions that temporarily increase your stats, but I was too thrifty to give these items a try. Playing a short three hole round nets each player around 100 Pang, which makes saving up for even a basic piece of clothing a difficult ordeal.
The Game Lobby
There are currently two live servers, each with several channels, including rookie, veteran and free channels. While there are four game modes, by and large the most popular one is the standard versus mode, which has ten available courses and accommodates four players. The host can chose how many holes will be played, from as little as three to the traditional eighteen. Since golf is a turn-based game, things can move rather slowly, especially if you're in a room with four people. I'm not the most patient of gamers, so I stuck with short one-on-one matches, which were enjoyable. There is a wind factor involved which constantly seems to change, so just keep an eye on it on the bottom-right. The default direction the game points you in is almost always accurate, though one time it didn't account for a giant lighthouse between the hole and I – my ball ended up in the ocean. So, always double check that by hitting '0.' The other game modes include tournament, battle, and lounge. Tournament mode is simply a series of shorter games with 10-30 players with one winner at the end, while battle mode allows players to wager their pang with others. If you're certain of your skills, battle mode can increase your pang earning, but carries larger risk. Lounge mode acts as the game's chat room and social gathering area. Up to thirty players can join a hosted lounge and walk around the course, chat, and set up personal shops to sell their items. If you're looking to purchase an expensive piece of clothing or gear, always check out a few lounge rooms first to see if you can snag the same item for a discount.
Serious or Silly
PangYa's greatest strength is its simplicity. It didn't take long for me to figure out the game's controls, even though I have no golfing experience. But with that said, Pangya didn't win me over to the sport either. I went in with little interest in golf and came out unchanged. Getting a game started was easier in PangYa than it was in Golf Online, but I would still recommend the latter for anyone looking for a serious golfing experience. One a final note – I was impressed with the game's Family Mode, which allows multiple people to play on one computer with a single account. If you have friends and family over and don't feel like creating multiple accounts, this is an easier way to get a game started.
Final Verdict: Good
PangYa is an easy to play, casual golfing game that may not impress seasoned veterans, but will keep less serious fans of the sport entertained. How much you enjoy this game will be based on how patient you are and how much you already enjoy casual golfing sims.

Learning the process of print design is important as it can be used for a number of business as well as personal needs. This is because it comes in handy for the production of various things such as invitations and holiday cards for personal needs and business cards, marketing material and brochures among many other things for business needs. Before you get the final product on your hands, there is a lot that goes on between the initial consultation and delivery.
Gathering information
If you are working with a professional designer to handle your print project, you first have to meet with them to discuss what needs to be done. Some of the things that are discussed at this meeting include:
- Overview of the entire job.
- Looking at samples.
- What needs to be included in the project?
- What needs to be achieved?
- The time it will take to deliver.
- Cost.
Basically you will handle all the information that both of you need before going ahead with the project.
Resource gathering and scheduling
Resources for print design include things such as photos, text, illustrations and anything else that is needed to see the project through. You can either supply this or let the professional that you are working with find the ideal resources that will be used to deliver excellent results at the end of the day. It is usually best to experiment with samples first, so that you can approve them before the real photographs and text are included. From here, the real work can start and you are also supposed to be given a deadline on when to expect the material.
As soon as all the resources have been gathered, the designer normally works on a couple of creative ideas and presents them to you as mocked up or even digital visuals as part or all of the entire project. Take some time and go through some of the ideas to settle on the work that work for your end product best. You are then supposed to take them back to the designer and tell him/her the adjustments that need to be made to make sure the end result you get is exactly what you are looking for.
The above step normally leads to the proofing stage where the professionals normally go through 2 or 3 proofs which are usually adequate to make all the necessary amendments and check all the details. At this point if extra work needs to be done, the professionals may review their costs but they have to run this with the customer to make sure they are in agreement of the changes that will be made.
This is a vital stage in the print design process as this is where the production of the material is done. On the final delivery, quality is normally checked to make sure clients do not get a raw deal.
Archiving and re-use
The final product is stored so that if you ever need to use it in the future it will just be pulled out. Don't forget to copyright the work so that no one can steal it.

Change your presence status in Lync
By default, your presence status in Lync reflects your Lync activities or Outlook calendar. For example, when you're in a Lync audio or video call, your presence indicator changes to red to show you're busy, and your status changes to In a call. And, if a meeting is currently scheduled in Outlook, your status displays In a meeting.
However, you can manually change your presence status to let your contacts know whether they can contact you on Lync. This lets you more effectively manage communication with your contacts.
Select your picture on the Lync home screen.
Select the arrow in the Status box, and then select the presence status you want.
Your presence information can also include a personal note that appears in your contact listing and on your contact card. Use it to give more details about your status, such as where you are or what you're doing. To add a note for the first time:
Select your picture on the Lync home screen.
Select the box that displays What's happening today?
Delete this default text, and type your own note.
If you've set automatic replies to be sent from Outlook when you're out of the office or busy, the message in the automated response displays as your personal note in Lync. If you don't want that, delete the message displayed and replace it with a note of your choice. However, doing so will not change the message in the automatic replies that are sent when you receive email.

Hi: 9° Lo:7°
By Rob George Thursday 20 December 2012 Updated: 04/01 10:11
THE VIOLENT former boyfriend of Jackie Harrison has been sentenced to life in prison after being found guilty of her murder.
William Cummins will serve at least 17 years in jail following the unanimous verdict which was delivered at Worcester Crown Court last Thursday (December 13).
The jury of seven men and five women took about an hour to return their judgement after hearing evidence for the past three weeks.
Cummins, 52, stood motionless in the dock as his sentence was delivered while family members who had been in court openly wept.
His Honour Judge Robert Juckes QC accepted Cummins may not have intended to kill Miss Harrison, who used to live in Pershore, but delivered an intensely savage beating which resulted in her death.
Judge Juckes said all of the evidence in the case pointed to Miss Harrison tackling the drink problems which had affected her.
He told the court he believed Cummins had waited to strike since the night of March 17 when he himself had been attacked by a Polish neighbour in a row over locking Miss Harrison out of her flat in Dines Green.
"Something dreadful happened to her in the early part of the following week, of that I have no doubt," he said.
"William Cummins attacked her, broke most of her ribs and her jaw in the most savage way."
"She died of those injuries in around two hours."
"Once she had died, he remained, confused about what he could do and I believe he was in the flat with her for at least two days."
"When he left he went looking for a hiding place but was a man with no clear plan."
Earlier, during his summing up, the judge told the jury Cummins had been convicted of 102 offences ranging from assault to drunken behaviour since 1978.
Following the verdict the court heard Cummins had served almost three years in jail in 2005 following a robbery and possession of an offensive weapon.
He was also sent to prison in 1995 for two assaults on police officers, the court heard.
After the sentence, senior investigating officer Detective Inspector Gerry Smith said the jury had delivered the right verdict.
"It has been a difficult investigation because of the length of time Jackie Harrison's body lay undiscovered, following her murder," he said.
"That meant some of the CCTV footage that we could have relied on had been taped over and witnesses' recollections weren't as fresh in their minds as they could have been."
"Despite that, the CCTV footage and the evidence proved a complete case against William Cummins."

RaiderZ Overview
RaiderZ is a free-to-play 3D monster-hunting MMO with FPS elements and non-targeting combat gameplay. Players enter the mysterious kingdom of Rendel as a selected champion to fight in the territorial war between humans and the mutated beasts terrorizing the land. Fight monsters in real time dodging their blows and using counterattacks. Complete challenging quests, clear dungeon instances, and craft your own arsenal of weaponry. Comparable to MAEIT Entertainment's GunZ: The Duel, Tera Online, C9, and Monster Hunter in terms of gameplay players get to wage war against gigantic monsters that are as interactive and responsive as an opponent in a PvP battle. There are no set classes. Heroes can learn over 350 different skills to customize their character as they wish.
Defender – This class of warriors are skilled in multiple forms of combat. Their counterattacks are to be reckoned with. Armed with one-handed weapons like the sword or mace they are capable of devastating blows. Defenders are known for their de-buffing skills.
Berserker – The two-handed sword is this soldiers' weapon of choice. Berserkers are experts at honing in on their enemy's weak points and using them to their advantage during combat. This class deals large amounts of damage but tends to lack speed.
Cleric – Valuable to any team, Clerics possess the ability to heal others. They are also skilled in magic and wield a Warhammer staff or mace with precision to take down foes.
Sorcerer – Notorious for their powerful ranged attacks this class relies on the elements of ice and fire to produce devastating magical blows. This class can easily assist from a distant. Sorcerers are armed with one-handed swords and staffs.

RaiderZ Review
By Ange Perdu
RaiderZ is a 3D fantasy themed monster-hunting MMORPG developed by MAEIT Entertainment, the same creator of the FPS GunZ: The Duel. The game combines FPS elements with non-targeting combat for a surreal gaming experience. Players step into the role of a warrior chosen to fight for the existence of the human race in the land of Rendel. Overrun by mutated monsters heroes must fight to the death to claim back their kingdoms' territory. Players must tackle quests while journeying through a world of hostile colossal creatures just waiting for an opportunity to strike. Join forces with friends to form hunting parties and clear dungeon instances together. Craft your own weapons and gear. Master hundreds of different skills and test out your abilities in PvP duels. In order to salvage mankind players must become the hero the world so desperately needs. Kill droves of terrifying beasts to bring peace back to the land in this free-to-play action adventure.
Hunt Together or Die Alone, the Gameplay
Most of the gameplay involves questing and monster killing. NPCs stationed throughout the village will delegate various tasks for heroes to tackle. Much like other RPGs players are asked to eliminate a certain number of beasts, find ancient ruin tablets, or to relay a message to a different non-player character. What makes RaiderZ more innovative like the popular Tera Online is the FPS style non-targeting combat. There are no stale auto-targeting or turn-based battles in this game. Players have to actively dodge and aim at their enemies. Monsters are fast and often deflect your attacks while executing special maneuvers of their own. The intensity of combat in the game makes it as fun as it is challenging. Fighting mammoth boss creatures and ferocious monsters solo is possible but not always advisable. Some monsters can only be conquered in a hunting party. Similar to League of Legends there's a team oriented aspect to the game. Players will often receive a quest to clear a dungeon instance with a powerful boss creature or have a difficult drove of minions to defeat. Joining forces with other players is usually the only method of survival. Players can use cool counterattacks allowing them to knock an enemy's weapon out of their hands and pick it up to strike them with it. It gives the combat a very realistic feel. Slay a variety of unique looking monsters from ones made out of stone statues to gigantic bugs.
Monster Transformation
The monsters in RaiderZ are very impressive but it's not just their appearance that truly makes the game memorable. It's the intuitive grappling system integrated into the gameplay. Heroes must tread lightly as they maneuver through fields and various terrain. The creatures in Rendel will not shy away from a fight. Just being within their peripheral vision is enough to trigger an attack. Players will find themselves constantly getting ambushed as they venture out into further more hostile zones. These mutated beasts are definitely worthy adversaries. They'll actively dodge a player's attack as they simultaneously attempt to execute damaging blows. Some monsters will literally try to eat their opponents by picking them up. It makes the combat equally exciting as it is challenging. Creatures will push and throw their foes about. Heroes will often find themselves flung into the bushes if they're not paying attention during a battle. The behemoths prowling through the land and stationed as dungeon bosses often require more than a few friends assisting to defeat. Players really have to hone their character's skills and take advantage of special items. Since there are no set classes in the game heroes can freely master a wide range of skills from tank to healer. There are over 300 different skills available as a player levels up their hero. Another cool aspect of the game is the transformation option which allows a player to acquire a special stone which transforms a human warrior into a ferocious beast. Transformation gives players the opportunity to participate in an epic monster versus monster showdown.
Craft Your Weapon
Since at its core, RaiderZ is a monster hunting MMO players are forced to use their monster drops as resources for crafting weapons and gear. The game has a somewhat extensive crafting system like Dark Blood Online. Simply trekking to the nearby NPC shop isn't really an option. Although the combat is fun players will have to do a significant amount of grinding to gather enough supplies to forge weapons. Crafting starts off very early in the game and remains prevalent throughout. Most items are level based so as a hero advances they will have to go back and craft a higher damaging weapon to be effective during battle. Each monster has a certain number of items that they drop and each item in the game has a strict craft recipe to follow in order to create it. There's a convenient drop down list displaying the various monsters that yield a specific ingredient in the recipe menu, which can be helpful. Most of the artillery in the game seems generic, especially at lower levels. Players can craft Pirate Greatswords, Admiral War Mace, Admiral War Swords, Standard Staff, Mace, and Shields to use in combat. The higher level crafted weaponry possesses more powerful stats. All heroes can set up their own craft bench as well.
Armor for a Hero
Heroes must craft the majority of their armor. Much like weapons they adhere to the same basic formula with common hats, tunics, pants, gloves, and boots available. Craft an Antique Bandana, Corium headband, Leather Hat, Pirate Captain Hat, Priest Robe, or a pair of Adventurers' Gloves as protective armor. Although most of the NPC shops are bare in the game, players can usually find consumable items on sell at them for health or other stat boosts. Grilled Fish, Carbonated Drinks, and Fresh Milk can be found at local market area shops. The character customization is limited in terms of appearance. Characters often look identical. During the creation process there are only a handful of different facial features, hair styles, and body configurations for users to choose from. The costumes and mount selection in the premium shop are scarce making it difficult to create a hero that stands out from the rest of the crowd. The item mall does contain special costume potions but they're very expensive. Each costume potion only transforms one piece of crafted armor into a costume. To alter a character's entire appearance a player must have multiple vials of the potion. Theme costume packs are available also but the themes are restricted to holidays and special events. Items available in the premium shop are primarily enhancements. Purchase various magical stones like the Blessing of Renas, Guardian's Life Stone, Artisan's Breath, or the Book of Oblivion for resetting skill points.
Final Verdict: Great
RaiderZ is one of those games that you just can't help but to love. Very similar to popular titles like Tera Online, Vindictus, and Monster Hunter players get to battle hordes of challenging monsters using an FPS style of non-targeting combat. Dodge attacks, continuously strike, and perform clever counterattacks against enemies. Monsters do not stand there and take a beating either. The innovative grappling feature in the game makes beasts a force to be reckoned with. Creatures will grab, push, throw, charge, and even attempt to devour their opponent. There are no set classes and hundreds of skills to master also. The incredible combat combined with the transformation feature initiating monster versus monster battles almost cancels out the lack-luster customization options and crafting system. Overall if you're looking for a fun challenge this monster-hunting MMO is definitely worth trying out.

Best of 2011 and Hugo predictions?
Any predictions or ideas for 2012 Hugos?
Will the best novel be science fiction (as opposed to fantasy, alt history, YA)?
January 2nd, 2012, 10:36 AM #2
I'd be VERY pleased to see Leviathan Wakes on the list, I expected Stephenson's Reamde to be on the list as well as Jo Walton's Among Us. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised in the least if Among Us actually won the award. Many, many critics were giving it the highest praise early in 2011.
January 2nd, 2012, 11:07 AM #3
Though I haven't read them yet, I also think Leviathan Wakes and Among Others are serious contenders for the awards this year. Not so sure about Reamde, which I'm not even sure is F/SF. I found it OK, but not up to Anathem or Cryptonomicon, for instance.
Two other books that I'd be surprised if they didn't appear in many shortlists this year are Embassytown by China Miéville and Ready Player One by Ernest Cline.
I'm still reading 2011 releases, but if I had to nominate today (luckily, I still have more than two months) these would my 5 novels:
* Ready Player One, by Ernest Cline
* Embassytown, by China Miéville
* The Map of Time, by Félix J. Palma
* The Clockwork Rocket, by Greg Egan
* The Magician King, by Lev Grossman
I'm half my way through Seed by Rob Ziegler and it has many possibilities of making my final list.

Regardless of any merit, I predict Scalzi and Grossman will be on the Hugo novel list and most likely Stross too if eligible for anything; given the popularity of Tor.com, i think the personal unpopularity of Jo walton will also be cancelled out and Among Others will be considered too.
As for best, Hugo have not been about that in decades so it's an irrelevant discussion
January 2nd, 2012, 12:17 PM #5
January 2nd, 2012, 04:42 PM #6
Who is in the 'big name that published' category this year?
Neal Stephenson and George Martin come to mind.
Scalzi might also fit into this category.
edit: Robert Charles Wilson seems to be out by publishing the third in a series, while Robert J. Sawyer did not publish anything.

I would predict the Hugo shortlist for best novel to include A Dance With Dragons by George R.R. Martin, Reamde by Neal Stephenson and Embassytown by China Mieville. I expect the other three novels might be Rule 34 by Charles Stross, Among Others by Jo Walton and Leviathan Wakes by James S.A. Corey.
Personally, I'd like to see either The Islanders by Christopher Priest or Zoo City by Lauren Beukes win, though I suspect neither are eligible. Odo can probably tell me. Neither will probably be nominated even if they are eligible.
It's hard for me to comment intelligently on the novella, novelette and short story categories, because I just don't read enough shorter works. I did read "Silently and Very Fast" by Catherynne M. Valente and I thought it was excellent. I've also heard good things about Kij Johnson's "The Man Who Bridged the Mist" and Ken Liu's work.
I expect the Neil Gaiman Doctor Who to take out the short form dramatic presentation category, though I preferred "The Girl Who Waited". A Games of Thrones will get nominations, certainly; probably "Baelor" or "Blood and Fire", maybe "The Pointy End". I would love to see Fringe recognised.
I can't think of a film I saw last year that I think deserves the long form award, but that's not unusual for me. Rise of the Planet of the Apes and Source Code were okay, not worthy of an award though. I hear Hugo is really good but it hasn't had an Australian release yet.
I don't have a great interest in the other categories, but maybe Jeremy Lassen deserves the be recognised in the long form editor category for the exciting debut novelists he has out out through Night Shade Books.

Thought that might be the case. Thanks for the clarification. The split publication issue will probably sink both their chances, I fear.

Mark Lawrence
Stina Leicht
Erin Morgenstern
Tea Obreht (if they decide it's SFF)
Ernest Cline
If no Obreht, I could see Kameron Hurley slipping in there. Personally, I think TC McCarthy belongs, but I worry he hasn't been read widely enough.
Also given that the Campbell has 2 years of eligibility, it's possible some 2010 debuts will make it on.

January 5th, 2012, 05:37 AM #15
I think it's very likely it will make the shortlist for both.

What makes you enjoy a Protagonist?
Personally liking a protagonist does not appear to be a necessary condition for enjoying the protagonist. So to be clear I am asking you to articulate why you have particularly enjoyed certain protagonists and why others have fallen flat, or failed to appeal.
Some of my favorite protagonists are Tyrion and Jamie Lannister from ASoIaF, Rupert Avery from Feist's Serpent War, Matt Cauthron from TWOT, and - though it pains me to admit it - Richard from the first two SOT novels. I am sure this is not an exhaustive list and I'll kick myself for not recalling some later, but off the top of my head...
Attempting to analyze why I enjoy these characters so much is difficult, but most of them appear to have an odd combination of self confidence and doubt and a dark sense of humor - with the exception of Richard.
Since I am currently attempting to shape my own protagonist, and thus have been giving this some considerable thought, I would appreciate hearing your opinions. I am also very curious as to which protagonists people have most enjoyed.

Character traits that I have liked in protagonists:
Clarity of thought, clear motivations.
Original, uncommon way of thinking. (Different value system, perhaps?)
Sharp dialogue. (Not necessarily just a protagonists feature...)
Exceptional capability on some area, not all, but in some area.
Sense of humor.
Sense of style. (Not snobbish though, unless exquisitely shown...)
Working set of (preferably good) manners.
Exotic experience history.

Wow, this is hard. I like/enjoy a wide variety of protags. I like characters that are fully developed, the ones I can imagine actually living, even if aliens. That's more due to the writer's skill in writing them than the character traits.
My favorite protags overcame a lot, but not just obstacles placed in front of them but the obstacles of their own lives, their upbringing. Probably one of my all-time favorites is Cat from Joan Vinge's Psion and Catspaw (I keep blanking on the third book's title).
I like characters who start off dysfunctional and who then find themselves over the course of the story.
I like protags that get under my skin, the ones who make me worry about them. If they're a bit sarcastic, that helps, because I'm sarcastic, too.
I tend to lean more toward a protag's inner life than outer life. The story's events should have emotional impact on the characters, perhaps at first for the bad, but then, ultimately, for the good.
So, I don't have an actual list of what I look for. It's like meeting someone new in real life. I'll hit it off with some and not others who have similar traits/personality. It's about making an emotional connection.
January 17th, 2010, 03:55 PM #6
Overall, complexity is the big winner for me. I enjoy protagonists who are intelligent, and have a sense of themselves and where they are in the world. Development is key and lends to the complexity.
Also I think protagonists should definitely face inner struggles, that makes it a whole lot more interesting. Of course, those struggles should be legitimate in context of the story but it makes the character much more well-rounded. Like ShellyS, I want to see the inner life of of the protagonist.
January 17th, 2010, 04:48 PM #7
I think you mean main characters rather than protagonists. I don't like it when an author suddenly makes a main character dumber than they were previously, without explanation, so that it will work with plot events. That annoys me. Other than that, what I enjoy are the inner pov's of main characters, their voices, assuming they are made viewpoint characters, and through dialogue if they aren't. And the reasons I enjoy them aren't set but vary depending on the character and I don't think I can really tell you what they are as I don't always know. Some characters just appeal to me, even if I hate them.

I like a protagonist that is flawed, as fragile in some aspects of their personality as they are strong in others. To hook me in they will need to lose far more often then they win... and have a self-deprecating sense of humor.

EOPS is a state-funded program designed to recruit and retain students who are economically and educationally disadvantaged. EOPS assists students in the development of their potential ability through academic support and financial assistance. The services of EOPS are designed to give students individualized attention and support to improve their chances for success.
The Extended Opportunity Program and Services (EOPS) Program was legislatively mandated in 1969 with the passage of SB 164 (Alquist). This "social reform"legislation encouraged the California Community Colleges to develop programs and services designed to meet the educational needs of [all] students handicapped by "language, social and economic disadvantages," these programs and services to be "over, above, and in addition to those regularly offered at the college," and which "encourage student growth, development, and successful participation" in collegiate life. The Cooperative Agencies Resources for Education (CARE) Program [a multi-agency program sponsored by the State of California Department of Social Services, the State Employment Development Department and the Chancellor's Office of the California Community Colleges], was established in 1982 as a supplemental component of EOPS to provide educational support services and activities for the academically underprepared, welfare-dependent, single head-of-household population.
Our mission is accomplished through:
• ACCESS: EOPS/CARE programs should assume responsibility to increase the number and percentage of students enrolled who are affected by language, social, and economic disadvantages consistent with State and local matriculation policies;
• RETENTION: EOPS/CARE programs should continue to lead community college efforts to implement programs and services which increase the number and percent of EOPS and CARE students who successfully complete their chosen educational objectives;
• TRANSITION: EOPS/CARE programs should support college efforts to increase the number and percentage of EOPS and CARE students who are successfully placed into career employment or who transfer to four-year institutions following completion of the related educational programs by students enrolled therein.
1. ROLE MODELS: To have a diverse staff of dedicated, well-qualified, culturally aware individuals with the ability to accommodate, inspire, and motivate students.
2. QUALITY: To provide the best quality of services that our resources will allow.
3. COUNSELING: To (1) provide each student with meaningful academic, personal, and career counseling, including recommended remediation, as needed; and (2) develop an educational plan for each student that is appropriate and realistic, based upon institutional assessment results.
4. EVALUATION: To evaluate the effects of program activities on student performance and progress towards their stated goals.
5. RESOURCE AWARENESS: To ensure that all students (1) are aware of campus and community resources/services; and (2) receive information and referrals to relevant programs and services both on- and off-campus.
6. REPRESENTATION: To have representation on campus committees, especially hiring committees and those that recommend policy and procedure.
7. ADVOCACY: To advocate for students handicapped by language, social and economic disadvantages.
8. STUDENT DEVELOPMENT: To foster students' increased self-confidence as we help them develop skills to become responsible members and leaders of a diverse society.
9. PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT: To assist the District to improve the delivery of current programs and services to disadvantaged students while developing new programs and services, as needed.
10. TEAM ENVIRONMENT: To maintain a cooperative working environment which will facilitate personal and professional development, and which allows each staff member: (1) to be accepted for his or her own individuality of ideas; (2) the opportunity to work as a member of a team; (3) acceptance as an equal partner in our attempts to realize program goals; and (4) the opportunity to offer input relative to program direction and focus.
