Letters: North County, Feb. 18, 2013
Well, I just read the announcement where a locally-owned company will be moving to Alabama. Creedmoor Sports Inc. has been in Oceanside, as far as I know, for over 20 years. You cannot go to a shooting sports event anywhere in the United States and not see their products on display, and in greater quantity than their competitors. Guess small businesses aren't worth the effort to keep around.
Gov. "Moonbeam" Brown won't be impressed. He's too busy building his bullet train. Perhaps those without jobs will be able to ride for free.

on road work
The recent repaving of Fallbrook Street was an extraordinary example of well-organized teamwork, effective communication and impressive efficiency. The San Diego County Department of Public Works and their contractor, ATP General Engineering Contractors, performed beyond all expectations. To stand on the roadside and watch their well-coordinated operation was indeed impressive... .
To have a major road network artery completely repaved and re-striped without causing any significant disruption to the community is certainly rare and so very much appreciated... .
Congratulations for a job well done!

Spalbar made it clear that vision is already there, in the form of Vision Document, and it was time for initiating the process of devising strategy for implementation of a workable and feasible action plan that has to be evolved through consensus of every stakeholder in this sector. He stressed on making Ladakh a niche tourist destination for selective groups of tourists, who are sensible to ecology and local culture.
Community tourism is what we look at, and eventually to prioritize it in our tourism policy, he asserted while urging upon the tour operators and taxi union to organize trainings to all the taxi drivers and travel guides on mandatory basis in order to sensitize them on the sensitivities such as conserving local environment. CEC directed the Tourism department and Wildlife department to strictly regulate the rules and registration processes.
Among others who spoke on the occasion was Jigmet Takpa, Conservator Forest, Ladakh, who apprised about the need for a fast consensus for enforcement of existing laws and rules, and to keep a check on enchroachment with impunity. E S Gergan, Educationist, pointed out the need to help people obey rules. P T Kunzang highlighted the work action gap problem until now regarding tourism, while as Tsering Namgyal a tour operator strongly felt the need to regulate and control the inflow of domestic tourists.
Councillor, Dawa Tsering was expressed concern about the flooding in of unorganized groups operated by popular national travel companies such as Make My Trip, Yatra. Dot. Com in Ladakh, and suggested to regulate the growing number of taxis and travel agencies in the district.
Present on the occasion were EC Agriculture, EC CAPD, ADC, Leh, Councillors, District Officials and representatives of Hoteliers and tour operators, taxi union, and cultural organizations.

IGNORANCE about a leading cause of death from blood transfusions is resulting in hundreds of unnecessary deaths each year, experts have told
The problem is called "transmission-related acute lung injury", or TRALI, and it's an immune reaction that seems to be triggered by antibodies in some donor blood. In most patients the reaction is mild, but in some it can be lethal, and no one knows why. The "bad blood" appears to come primarily from people who have been exposed to a variety of blood groups in the past, such as women who have had more than three children or people who have had multiple transfusions.
TRALI ranks as one of the top three causes of death from blood transfusions in the US and Britain with between one and five deaths reported each ...

Hello and welcome!
Originally, I started this domain just so I could have a permanent email address that was easy to remember. Then I started adding travel photos for far-flung friends… then ignored it when work was hectic… then added more photos… then ignored it when work was hectic… at this stage, this entire site need sprucing up!? Maybe one of these days when I get some "free time"…
Some of my hobbies
First encountered a computer aged 10, at a school open day, right after seeing my first science fiction movie with robots-as-friends. I wanted to find out this thing worked and was instantly hooked. Then it turned out that there were classes in it at Mount Temple School, then Rathmines College and finally NIHE / DCU. Hey, who would have thought you could even get a job doing this…
See my Travel Journal section for more info on my travels…
I took up Aikido in Dublin in 1991. Since then I have trained in Dojos ("schools") in Ireland, Boston, Paris, Santa Cruz and San Francisco. After years of patchy studying around work deadlines, I'm finally getting my my act together, and started taking exams after all these years! And hey, even passed them! (yippee!) So I am now officially NOT a beginner "white" belt any more.
For more information on this non-violent, street practical self-defence, check out the following websites for the Dojos I attend in San Francisco, CA, Santa Cruz, CA and Dublin, Ireland.
For some people, driving a car is about convenience. For others its stressful and something to be avoided as much as possible. For others again its about overt power & ego. For me, its none of the above. I've no interest in 0-60 in a straight line in a flashy red convertible. BCSD and all that. Personally, I'm interested in controlled high precision driving – the more cluttered the environment, the more fun. Rally driving in Ireland always appealed, but I've never had the time, money or contacts to do that. And the movie "Ronin" still has some of the most stunning car driving scenes I've ever seen, in my opinion. In 1999, I attended a 2 day "Executive Protection" driving course just outside of Los Angeles. In 2005, I attended another more advanced week-long course in Florida with VPI International, part of Gryphon Security.Thanks for visiting, and take care

Real De Banjul's hopes to grab a rare away point in Morocco went up in smoke after FUS De Rabat poked in a controversial last-gasp goal from the penalty spot.
Alagie Sarr put up a defensive setup hoping to frustrate the host - a tactic he contentedly managed to achieve but the gaffer's return to the African Champions League was a bitter pill to swallow just when the match was finally tipped for a stalemate.
Donning an untypical green strips at the Molay Abdelleh complex on Friday, the Gambian side had their hands in their heads in disbelief after the central referee pointed to the spot kick gifting the Moroccans a controversial chance to seal all points.
Footage of the incident shows FUS Rabat's striker going down under what appeared to be a minimal mid-air challenge from a Gambian defender in the Real De Banjul box and the referee wasted little time to award for a penalty a minute from additional time of four.
Mourad Batma stepped up to slot in a left footed effort nestling the ball to the back of the net sending Real's goalkeeper the wrong way.
While Baboucarr Trawally is replaced by Salifu Krubally, Rabat came close to opening the score when a FUS Rabat striker's well placed header from a corner kick rattled on the cross bar.
The Moroccan side who are making their first appearance in the CAF Champions League will return visit in Banjul for the second leg early March.

"A Very Special Family Guy Freakin' Christmas" is the 16th episode of the third season of the animated comedy series Family Guy, an episode produced for Season 2. It originally aired on Fox in the United States on December 21, 2001. The episode features the Griffin family, after father, Peter, accidentally gives all of his family's Christmas presents to charity. Unable to take them back, the family sets out to replace them on Christmas Eve, but are unable to do so. Meanwhile, the family dog, Brian, is left home alone, and is unable to extinguish a fire that breaks out, resulting in Peter's wife, Lois, finally being pushed over the edge and taking her anger out on the town's Christmas tree.
The episode was written by Danny Smith and directed by Brian Hogan, in his third episode, the first two being "Mr. Griffin Goes to Washington" and "Lethal Weapons". The episode features guest performances by KISS, Jennifer Tilly and Wally Wingert, along with several recurring guest voice actors for the series.
Lois signs Stewie up to star as the baby Jesus in a nativity scene during the Quahog Christmas pageant. Although Stewie initially resists, he eventually plays along in hopes of pleasing Santa, whom he believes is omnipotent and thereby can supply him with plutonium.
After Lois repeatedly reminds Peter to donate a present to charity, he mistakenly donates all of the family's Christmas gifts to a needy kids' charity. Lois seems unfazed by the mistake, but insists that the entire family shop for new presents at the mall. Peter reluctantly agrees, although he only wants to watch Kiss Saves Santa on television; Brian stays behind to keep an eye on the turkey cooking in the oven but is unable to record the special at Peter's request because an earlier incident of his broke the VCR. While at the mall, Peter finds a pair of barrettes that Meg wanted and ends up chasing down an old lady to a pet fish store called "Age of Aquariums", where the old lady throws fish food on him so that all the fish jump onto him to feed while the old lady escapes.
Meanwhile at the Griffin house, an ember shoots onto the family rug from the fireplace. While Brian tries to deal with this crisis, the overcooked turkey begins to burn. Brian finds a fire extinguisher, but to his dismay, it is merely a novelty item filled with plastic snakes, which, upon being released into the fire, promptly explode and make it worse. After using the real fire extinguisher, he slips on the foam from it and the TV falls on top of him. Afterwards the interior of the house is destroyed; Brian escapes, but with his paws burnt hairless. Amazingly, Lois maintains a cheerful attitude, saying that they just need to clean up a bit; but when Meg tells her that they are out of paper towels, Lois then suffers a nervous breakdown and in a parody of the "wire hangers" scene from Mommie Dearest, screams at the family about how difficult it is to ensure that Christmas happens without a hitch, then runs from the ruined house on a rampage (Meg then ironically finds some paper towels mere seconds after Lois' rampage).
Lois storms throughout the town, berating people for their ridiculous Christmas optimism. Lois also pushes George Bailey off a bridge in the scene from It's a Wonderful Life. Then, on the way to town square, she melts Frosty the Snowman. When Lois reaches the town square, she begins to climb the huge Christmas tree there, bent on destroying the ornamental star on top. The rest of the family arrives and Stewie, eager to perform a good deed to earn Santa's grace, performs an extemporaneous monologue about Jesus and the meaning of Christmas. Lois, watching Stewie, regains her sanity and begins to descend the tree; but Peter, who feels Lois still does not get it, orders the police to shoot her with a tranquilizer dart.
The next morning at Christmas, the family has gathered in the charred living room, happily opening their presents; Stewie gets his plutonium, Peter gets a new VCR and his own copy of Kiss Saves Santa, Brian gets at what first appears to be a bottle of wine, but actually turns out to be a book, and Lois, as Peter would put it, is as cheerful as ever, despite still being heavily sedated, sitting limply in a rocking chair and drooling. In the closing scene, the Griffins wish everyone a Merry Christmas (though Lois is still too numb to speak clearly).

HACKING the planet could be as messy as agreeing a global climate deal. That's the implication of a study into the effects of deploying a stratospheric sunshade of dust particles to cool the planet.
Katharine Ricke of Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and colleagues used a computer model to explore how sulphate particles pumped into the stratosphere would affect climate up to 2080. They assumed that carbon dioxide emissions would rise until 2050, then drop.
A sulphate sunshade would reduce temperature and precipitation, they found, but no amount of dust could get both back to 2005 levels. What's more, climate in the 23 regions modelled in the study responded quite differently (Nature Geoscience, DOI: 10.1038/ngeo915). "As time goes on those differences become greater," says Ricke.
This would be a big obstacle to a ...

Canada and Alberta introduce joint plan for improved environmental monitoring in the oil sands
3 February 2012
|Proposed oil sands monitoring by 2015. Click to enlarge.
The Government of Canada and Government of Alberta unveiled "The Joint Canada-Alberta Implementation Plan for Oil Sands Monitoring" in a partnership to improve environmental monitoring in the oil sands region with a program that will sample more sites for more substances more frequently. The program is designed to provide an improved understanding of the long-term cumulative effects of oil sands development.
The Implementation Plan addresses the following components: air quality; acid sensitive lakes and accumulated aerial deposition; water quantity/quality; aquatic ecosystem health—fish status and health, benthic invertebrates and other aquatic biota; wildlife toxicology; terrestrial biodiversity and habitat disturbance; and data management.
Air quality. Sources of air contaminant emissions from oil sands developments include industrial smokestacks, tailings ponds, transportation, and dust from mining operations. In general, these emissions are projected to increase into the future with increasing industrial development. Current air monitoring efforts in the region are more targeted toward measuring compliance with provincial regulations; however, significant questions remain regarding the emissions from point and non-point sources, the chemical transformation of these emissions in the atmosphere, their long-range transport and their effects on the ecosystem and human health.
The plan calls for monitoring contaminants from the point of emission to the point of deposition into aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. This includes enhanced effort to determine emission from industrial stacks, mobile sources and area sources (e.g. tailings ponds).
When implemented, the new sites will span a large spatial range, from upwind sites to long-range transboundary sites; this broad spatial range will allow a greater understanding of the distinction between natural, point and non-point sources and the long-range effects of air emissions downwind, such as on acid sensitive lakes and terrestrial vegetation.
Acid sensitive lakes and accumulated aerial deposition. The monitoring of the snowpack and acid sensitive lakes is designed to assess the linkages between atmospheric deposition and impacts on water quality. Data will be analyzed to determine, where possible, baseline conditions to which changes in atmospheric deposition as well as chemical and biological changes can be detected and explained.
Water quantity/quality. The quality and quantity of the water in the Athabasca River and throughout the oil sands region has been a key concern due to the range of contaminants produced by industrial activities that could end up in lakes and rivers in the region.
The current sampling approaches are poorly designed for the purposes of providing an integrated understanding of the impacts of the oil sands industry on the aquatic environment, according to the governments. Water monitoring will be done through a comprehensive and integrated approach that quantifies and assesses the sources, transport, loadings, fate, and types of oil sands contaminants in the Athabasca River system and effects on key aquatic ecosystem components (both within the oil sands development area and in downstream receiving environments) that are measures of ecosystem health and integrity (fish, invertebrates).
A mass-balance approach was used to define the network of sites to be monitored for key water quality, hydrometric and aerial deposition variables.
Aquatic ecosystem health. There is a risk that contaminants from industrial activities entering rivers and lakes could have an adverse effect on the overall healthy functioning of the aquatic ecosystems. Efforts will focus on monitoring a set of fish, invertebrates and other species that are indicators of overall aquatic ecosystem health. This will be done through establishing: the current status of fish population health and benthic communities structure and function in the Lower Athabasca region; the baseline against which future change can be assessed; the differences among reference and potentially impacted sites; the health status of fish populations in high use areas; whether the incidence of fish abnormalities is elevated or changing; and whether contaminant concentrations in fish are increasing or decreasing downstream of oil sands development.
Wildlife toxicology. This program will assess the health of sensitive wildlife species that may be exposed to oil sands-generated contaminants via contaminated food or water.
The initial focus will be on the identification of a variety of wildlife indicators (including birds, mammals, amphibians and plants) to select species most suitable for monitoring contaminant exposure and impacts. Data collected will include measurements of oil sands-related contaminants of concern in wildlife tissues at various locations (e.g. PAHs, mercury, arsenic, etc.).
Terrestrial biodiversity and habitat disturbance. A key consideration related to the development of the oil sands is that of habitat disturbance. Geographic coverage of monitoring will be expanded and the monitoring sensitivity will be increased, particularly for species at risk.
Data management. In addition to increased monitoring efforts, both governments are working cooperatively to develop and implement an integrated data management system. A new Oil Sands Data Management Network (OS_DMN) will allow open and transparent public access on-line to comprehensive oil sands environmental monitoring data and supporting information. Network partners will be responsible for management of data and will adhere to a framework outlining a core set of data management policies. This will ensure that data is managed consistently across all partners.
The three-year implementation plan begins this spring with increased sampling frequency, parameters, and locations. It will also integrate relevant parts of existing monitoring efforts. The implementation plan reflects the Integrated Oil Sands Environment Monitoring Plan released by Environment Canada in July 2011 and will be consistent with the Government of Alberta's plans for a province-wide environmental monitoring system, according to the Canada and Alberta environment ministries.
By the time the three-year plan is fully-implemented in 2015:
- the number of sampling sites will be larger and installed over a larger area;
- the number and types of parameters being sampled will increase;
- the frequency that sampling occurs each year will be significantly increased;
- the methodologies for monitoring for both air and water will be improved; and
- an integrated, open data management program will be created.
Implementation of the monitoring program will be both phased and adaptive, and will be jointly managed by the Government of Canada and the Government of Alberta. Annual progress reports on implementation will be prepared for the first three years, with an external scientific peer review of the program and the end of the third year. Following that, a full external, scientific review of the new program will be conducted every five years.
The end result of this Implementation Plan will be a world-leading program, fully integrated into national and provincial monitoring systems, providing reliable data on environmental conditions in the oil sands area. An integrated approach to air, water, land and biodiversity monitoring will yield compelling information on the state of the environment and environmental performance.—Joint Canada-Alberta Implementation Plan for the Oil Sands
Currently, both governments and industry commit resources to environmental monitoring. It is expected that industry will provide increased funding required to implement this new program.
The two governments will move forward immediately with discussions with industry, as well as other stakeholders, to establish the details related to implementation, including the arrangements for sustainable funding of the program. This engagement with industry, scientists and other stakeholders will be ongoing.
At the same time, both governments said they will take immediate steps required to start implementing the activities outlined for the first year of the program, and make the fullest possible use of the upcoming field season for monitoring. Monitoring in the oil sands will be managed in an adaptive manner, with plans and activities evolving to reflect experience gained from initial work. Details in years two and three will be finalized, refined and adjusted based on this adaptive approach, while continuing to reflect the approach of year one.

Listed below are links to weblogs that reference Canada and Alberta introduce joint plan for improved environmental monitoring in the oil sands :
This improved monitoring program will prove that pollution is Nil or under/close to zero and even positive for wild life, plants and humans. This will be a boost for exports South of the border and to Asia.
The monitoring program is also a big jobs program, creating lots of billable hours & lab revenue associated with analyzing the samples collected. It's kind of like a parasite-host relationship, with the host being the tar sand operations & parasites being all the consultants (engineering, environmental and whatever else) and government regulators. If you can't kill the host outright, might as well load it up with as many parasites as possible.
After that positive note I would like to ad a thought. It occurred to me that they burn a LOT of natural gas for the heat to cook this stuff. Why can't they generate power and use the waste heat to cook?
"It takes about 28 cubic metres (1000 cubic feet) of natural gas to produce one barrel of bitumen from in situ projects and about 14 cubic metres (500 cubic feet) for integrated projects."
That is almost a 1 to 3 ratio of 1 therm of natural gas to 3 gallons of gasoline at the end of the process. Just leave the tar sands there, turn the natural gas into synthetic gasoline and ship that down.
"A cogeneration plant realizes efficiency gains by combining the processes using fuel, typically natural gas, to run a combustion turbine to turn a generator and produce electricity. A heat recovery steam generator then captures the remaining heat that would normally be wasted, and uses it to produce steam, hot water or a mixture of the two. This is then used in the oil sands production."
So, to answer my own question from above, they COULD do cogeneration, but I am not sure how many actually do.
Please remember, Stephen Harper (our PM) is an oil friendly Albertan. This is nothing more than greenwashing.
ejj, this plan isn't a parasite on the tarsands host. Tarsands are the parasite and this plan is a paint job to make it look like a ladybug.
Two regulations that could turn me to support oil sands development would be that 1) all development is done in-situ and 2) that all extraction energy is derived from renewable energy such as wind power or hydropower. Require that and oil sands will be no more polluting than conventional oil or tight oil. It will make the cost of oil sands extraction higher (than using natural gas at only 2 USD per million BTU) but I believe it will still be profitable at 100 USD a barrel. Canada should export its natural gas to Asia where it can get up to 15 USD per million BTU. These export terminals for LNG in Canada is also needed to increase the price of natural gas in Canada and thereby make the renewable energy option for tar sands more viable.
There was mention that it can cost $20 per barrel to extract and process the tar sand oil and the quality is not great. Compare this with $2 per barrel for light sweet crude extraction from Saudi Arabia and you start to see the difference.
Most of the time these pr studies are there to jack-up the price of the oil after they discover some needs to purify this and that.
ai_vin hit it right on.
I flew over the tar sands once in a light plane with open windows: Not a pretty sight, and even from thousands of feet up the smell almost made me retch.
One person commented it is the fact all of this is remote which allows it to happen, out of sight, out of mind.
If there remains any question as to how much Stephen Harper, and the "Government of Harper," does NOT care about the health of people or the environment you only have to look at his support of the asbestos industry;
He's been defending this killer for years.

Hobby Lobby: If a corporation refuses to insure any legal medical procedure or doctor-ordered drug, it should also give up its corporate protection.
Many family-owned businesses incorporate to avoid lawsuits. They put all assets such as buildings, equipment and land in family holdings and then rent them to the business. Then if the company does something wrong, and in some cases illegal, an individual cannot sue the individuals because the corporation did it. And the corporation has no assets to sue for.
The Supreme Court has now given corporations a soul. Too bad they didn't give them consciences. Little by little they are turning this country into a monarchy.
More and more, money controls Congress and less than 1 percent of the people control the money.
Wake up, America.

How come the control + apple + D combination to look up a word in any application doesn't work in Firefox? Is there a way to get it to work?
apple + f
Apple f is the find command, as in find a certain word on a page.
He's talking about using the built-in oxford dictionary to look up definitions of a word...
Don't think that will work as Firefox doesn't support that feature of OS X.
Some apps support these niceties (such as built-in spell checker or dictionary lookup) and other don't, I think it depends on how they were programmed.

Edgerrin James Joins Ring of Honor: Five Best Players in the History of the Indianapolis Colts
Sep/24/12 09:14 AM Filed in:
Edgerrin James
The official website of the Indianapolis Colts reports Edgerrin James, running back from 1999-2005, will be inducted into the Indianapolis Colts Ring of Honor this Sunday, September 23, 2012. He is just the fifth player to be so honored in the 29-year history of the Indianapolis Colts since they moved from Baltimore in 1984. James was the fourth overall pick of the 1999 draft out of Miami, FL. He burst on the scene by winning rushing titles in his first two seasons, 1999 and 2000. Playing for the Colts from 1999-2005, he rushed for 9,226 yards and 64 touchdowns and caught 356 receptions for 2,839 yards and 11 touchdowns. The Colts won four division titles and made one AFC Championship game during the James era. The only year the Colts had a losing record during the James era was 2001, when the team was 6-10 overall and 3-7 during James' absence with a knee injury.
Aside from James, who are the five best players in the history of the Indianapolis Colts? (Note: This article focuses on Indianapolis and does not refer to the storied history of the Baltimore Colts).
Peyton Manning must top the list of the best players for the Indianapolis Colts. Manning was the quarterback and No. 1 pick for the Colts and played every game for the Colts from 1998-2010 until neck problems forced him to miss the entire 2011 season. ESPN reviewed his career when the Colts released him in March, allowing him to sign with the Denver Broncos. The Colts went to the playoffs every year Manning was quarterback except his rookie year and in 2001. They won seven of the first eight AFC South titles from 2002-2009 and the AFC East title in 1999. The Colts went to the Super Bowl in 2006 and 2009, winning it in 2006. In the victory over the Chicago Bears, Manning won the Super Bowl MVP award. Manning broke every passing record for the Colts. Manning is a certainty to be the sixth player to join the Ring of Honor after he retires.
Marvin Harrison must be mentioned at the same time as Manning and James. Harrison completed the triplets for the Colts as wide receiver. He leads the Colts in all-time yards from scrimmage: 14,608 (James is second with 12,065). In almost a quarter of the games that Manning, Harrison and James played, Harrison and James both had 100-yard games. The Colts were 19-3 in those games. Pro-football-reference.com shows all of the career statistics of Harrison while playing for the Colts from 1996-2008. Harrison caught 128 career touchdowns. He led the league in receptions and reception yards twice.
Jim Harbaugh was the quarterback of the Colts from 1994-1997, right before the Manning era. Harbaugh led the league in 1995 and 1997 with the lowest interception rate. The most successful year of the Colts during this time was 1995 when a dropped Hail Mary pass kept the Colts from going to the Super Bowl.
Bill Brooks was a wide receiver for the Colts from 1986 to 1992. Brooks also returned punts in his first two years. Brooks caught 411 passes for 5,818 yards during this tenure with the Colts before he shuffled off to Buffalo, then Washington.
Chris Hinton was a left guard and left tackle for the Baltimore Colts in 1983 as a rookie. He then moved to Indianapolis with the Colts in the middle of the night where he stayed until 1989. He started 92 games for the Colts and played in two others during those years.

Two senior United Nations relief officials today called on the Government of Sudan to renew the work permits for international aid workers based in Darfur so they can resume protection and assistance to hundreds of thousands of displaced civilians in the region.
Of the 37 international staff of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) based in Darfur, only 17 currently have valid permits to continue their work. Permits in the other 20 cases have not been renewed, despite extended follow-up by UNHCR with the relevant Government authorities.
In a joint statement issued in Khartoum, UN Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator Ali Al-Za'tari and UNHCR Representative Kai Nielsen voiced their regret that humanitarian activities for internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Darfur have had to be scaled down as a result of the non-renewal of the work permits.
They noted that UNHCR's work in North Darfur has been particularly affected. None of the UNHCR international staff based in the state capital of El Fasher have been granted permits to return, with the last remaining staff having been asked to leave at short notice in early July.
"The result is that for over a month, UNHCR has been unable to effectively undertake protection and assistance activities for IDPs in North Darfur," they stated.
There are currently some two million IDPs in Darfur, of whom 1.2 million live in camps. There have been almost 300,000 new IDPs this year alone, including a third of them within and from North Darfur.
The officials pointed out that the humanitarian situation in Darfur remains "critical" both for long-term IDPs and for those who have been newly displaced as a result of recent fighting.
"The inability of UNHCR to continue implementing its activities will directly impact projects related to health, education, basic services and livelihoods, the provision of emergency shelter and non-food items, and on the verification of returnees."
They called on the Sudanese Government to renew the permits for all UNHCR staff so as to allow the agency to fully resume its activities in Darfur.

SUPER Eagles' Coach, Stephen Keshi, has agreed to return to his position on a N6 million monthly salary, Sports Minister, Tammy Danagogo.
The new deal is a N1 million improvement on his previous deal worth N5 million monthly, which expired at the end of the 2014 World Cup.
Keshi had demanded a N15 million monthly salary with the NFF offering the same N5m he earned in his previous contract, which stalled talks over an extension.
But Danagogo has hinted that Keshi has agreed to work with a slight increment of N1m, which if agreed to, will see Keshi earn N6m monthly.
"The difference between what he is asking for right now and what the NFF are offering is not really much because it is not more than N1million, something within that range.
"I spoke to him about it and he showed the zeal and patriotism to continue and I assured him that he will get back on the negotiation table once the NFF is settled," Danagogo said.
Danagogo said that he intervened when it became obvious that the NFF was not able to reach any agreement with the Eagles' coach, a situation, which, he said, would have led to the Nigeria facing two formidable opponents without a good technical bench.
Keshi is expected back to Nigeria this weekend, as he takes charge of the Eagles once again for the double header against Congo and South Africa.
Also speaking on the Keshi issue, newly elected President of the NFF, Chris Giwa, assured that efforts would be made to ensure the coach continues in his job.
"Keshi has done well for Nigeria and the least we can do is let him continue and that is what we will work toward.
"We are certainly expecting Keshi to arrive the country by this weekend and we will go fully into the preparation by next week and I am optimistic we are going to have a good match."
