Martina Cole's unstoppable success
It has been 25 years since Martina Cole's debut novel
Dangerous Lady was published and in a career which has seen her break almost every publishing record there is – she holds more No.1 original bestsellers than any other author with each novel outselling the last – she's still topping the charts.
The paperback edition of Betrayal, her twenty-third novel, has gone straight to No.1 not only in the paperback charts but in overall bestsellers chart, holding the spot for two weeks.
Martina's next novel, Damaged, hails the return of DCI Kate Burrows who is featured in Hard Girls, Broken and The Ladykiller. It will be published in hardback in September this year.
Unmatched in talent and unstoppable in success – she is truly iconic and a true 'one off'.
Amazon's Bestsellers 2017
Three of our authors have made the Top 10 of Amazon's most sold e-books of 2017 so far!

BA Paris – a double NY Times bestseller
BA Paris has conquered the US, again – and with two books.
The Breakdown went straight to No.10 on the New York Times hardback charts and Behind Closed Doors, a hardback bestseller in 2016, shot to No.5 on the paperback charts.
BA Paris has enjoyed worldwide success with her debut novel Behind Closed Doors which, so far, has sold in 36 territories.
The Breakdown has also enjoyed great success, USA Today said 'A story with a ratcheting sense of unease — a tale of friendship and love, sanity and the terrible unravelling of it.'. BA Paris' next novel Bring Me Back will be out in February 2018 – we can't wait.

Agency Newsletter: May
You Don't Know Me – a startling debut
A new and exciting voice in the crime and thriller world launched this month with a staggering debut novel.
Imran Mahmood's You Don't Know Me is a crime book with a difference: the story is told entirely in the form of a defence speech from a young black man, accused of murder. The reader becomes the jury as the unnamed defendant presents the eight pieces of evidence and only one thing matters – did he do it?
The audio book, narrated by Adam Deacon of Kidulthood, is the fastest selling audio book for Penguin Random House this year.
You Don't Know Me has received stellar praise from many national newspapers including The Times and Imran was profiled in the Guardian. He also featured as a Simon Mayo book club selection on BBC Radio 2 and was on the Today programme on BBC Radio 4.
Lee Child's outstanding contribution
Lee Child will be awarded the OutstandingContribution to Crime Fiction Award at the Theakston Old Peculier Crime Writing Festival at Harrogate this year.
Simon Theakston, who runs the award said 'Lee is very deserving of this accolade, and will have his rightful place in a pantheon of legendary crime authors who have achieved this honour to date.'
No Middle Name, a collection of all the Reacher stories, published together for the first time, has soared into No.3 on the New York Times hardcover bestseller chart and is No.2 in the UK!
Nobody does it better.
TM Logan – Top 10 for debut
TM Logan's gripping debut, Lies, has spent 8 weeks in the Kindle Top 10 having previously reached No.1 on iBooks and No.2 on Kindle.
This month, Charlie Spicer at St. Martin's Press acquired North American rights, he said: 'Like B.A. Paris's mega bestseller Behind Closed Doors, TM Logan creates an unforgettable novel of suspense out of a chilling human dilemma: what if you learned your wife was having an affair and you believe you are being set up to take the fall for a murder?'

Agency Newsletter: April
Some highlights from last month at the agency, hope you all enjoy!
John Connolly and Lee Child – No.1 Bestsellers
We were incredibly proud to see two of our authors secure the highly-coveted No.1 spot – and even more so that it was simultaneous!
Back with the 15th novel in his outstanding Charlie Parker series, John Connolly soared to the top spot with A Game of Ghosts, beating Wilbur Smith's War Cry and several other well established authors.
This is the second consecutive year that John has gone straight to No.1 on the hardback list.
And the paperback of Night School, the 21st Jack Reacher novel from Lee Child went straight to No.1 with an emphatic lead ahead of the No.2 bestseller, and it stayed comfortably in the top spot for four weeks.
Both authors held the No.1 spot simultaneously for two weeks.
An amazing achievement for both authors and for the agency.
Annie Murray is a No.6 Bestseller
It was a record-breaking month at the agency, Annie Murray's latest novel The Doorstep Child rocketed into the No.6 spot on the bestsellers chart – the highest position in her career so far.
The Doorstep Child is Annie's 21st book and is the third novel in a trilogy, featuring 2016's Now The War Is Over and 2015's War Babies.
All three novels have been Sunday Times bestsellers.

Agency Newsletter: February
A sheepish return to the blog as this newsletter comes a little later than anticipated. However, rest assured the reason for delay is all due to a staggeringly busy couple of months. With the London and Bologna book fairs, this is one of the most exciting times of the year but very much requires an 'all hands on deck' approach.
Anyway, it's here now. I'll let the newsletter speak for itself, so much exciting stuff. If you are having trouble with the link to Agency Newsletter: February 2017, scroll down for all of the articles.
Margaret Dickinson is a Top 10 smash hit!
The Queen of Saga returns with another bestselling novel. Daughters of Courage, the sequel to Top 10 bestseller The Buffer Girls, soared to No.9 after its first full week of sales.
This is Margaret's 24th novel and second year in a row she has been a Sunday Times Bestseller. Her loyal readership got the chance to meet her at a number of signings which took place across the UK.
Margaret even made an appearance on BBC's Bargain Hunt, discussing the legacy of the Buffer Girls of Sheffield and how they inspired her characters and their stories.
Margaret is highly regarded by everyone she works with for having an incredible work ethic and Darley Anderson has said, 'She is the constant professional in everything she does. No one deserves success more than she does.' We couldn't agree more.
Congratulations Margaret, here's to the many more successes to come.
The Breakdown is a UK bestseller
The hotly anticipated second novel from the international début sensation, B.A. Paris, has rocketed into the Bestsellers chart.
The Breakdown soared to No.11 on the Sunday Times Bestsellers, and also made a huge splash on iBooks going straight to No.1 and on Amazon's Kindle Chart, as a No.6 bestseller. Since first appearing in the Kindle Top 20, The Breakdown has not dropped out!
We are so proud of our author and cannot wait to see what happens next!
It's been a fantastic month for the Children's Agency. Three of our authors have been longlisted for Reading Rampage 2017. Polly Ho-Yen's Where Monsters Lie, Kim Slater's Smart and Vanessa Altin's The Pomegranate Tree have all been chosen for the city wide event in Leicester which aims to promote Reading for Pleasure to children and young people.
And Dave Rudden's Knights of the Borrowed Dark has won the Most Read Award at the SLA Great Reads Awards. Instead of a trophy, the students gave him a light bulb as a nod to one of the most memorable parts of the story.
Catherine Steadman joins DA Agency
We are absolutely thrilled to welcome new talent Catherine Steadman to the Darley Anderson Agency! Her novel, Something In The Water, is an unpredictable and darkly funny début, with an utterly compelling voice.
Kate Miciak from Bantam Bell snapped up the US rights at auction and said, 'From the opening sentence to its final gorgeous revelation, I was enthralled…I read the pages in one greedy gulp…and then couldn't stop obsessing about it.' Italian translation rights were pre-empted overnight and Swedish rights have already sold.
Catherine is a Laurence Olivier Award nominated actress and writer based in North London. She is known for her roles in Downton Abbey and Tutankhamun, starring alongside Sam Neill, as well as shows including The Inbetweeners and The Tudors.
Dangerous Lady returns
The first novel from the inimitable Martina Cole, Dangerous Lady, returns in a very special 25th anniversary hardback edition.
Over the course of her illustrious year, Martina has sold sixteen million print copies and 1.2 million e-books.
And Dangerous Lady was the book that started it all.
The Last Night takes Bronze
We are thrilled to announce that The Last Night by Cesca Major won the Bronze Award in the Historical Fiction category of TBC Charlie Awards. The Book Club is an online reading group made up of over 6500 compulsive readers and approximately 900 authors. Every year the TBC Charlie Awards celebrate the authors with prizes awarded in 16 different categories.
Congratulations Cesca!
CWA Dagger in the Library
We are delighted to announce that Tana French has been longlisted for the prestigious Dagger in the Library Award for the CWA Daggers 2017!
The Dagger in the Library recognises the author's entire body of work rather than just one book.

The French are bigger than we are. So are the Americans. But does size matter? And to be specific, how big is ours?
We speak, of course, of the size of the UK snowsports market.
In recent years the Crystal Ski Industry Report has always been the starting point for scaling the UK market.
Up until this year, the company has endeavoured to estimate the market size in its annual report. This has suggested a market size that peaked at 1.2 million in 2008 and which has declined until last year.
However, this year, for the first time in 20 years, the company did not attempt to size the market.
This was a shame as while there were limitations in their methodology, there was at least a headline figure for the industry to work with.
The second source of industry size has been from the Ski Club of Great Britain. Their annual industry report has typically been published three to four months after the Crystal report and has leaned on the initial report as a source for its own findings.
By recognising the greater influence of the independent market than the report by Crystal, the Ski Club report has typically sized the industry slightly higher.
Their figures from the previous 15 years are shown below. Note that in the last three years, their report has had a different format with a focus on Net Promoter Score and not been on the headline figure. The 12/13 figure also looks anomalous.
Is the market significantly larger than thought?
In the last week, we've seen two larger estimates of the size of the market.
The first was from Laurent Vanat, author of the highly regarded International Report on Snow & Mountain Tourism.
Vanat was presenting some of the data from his report at the LISTEX this week. His figures suggest the UK has a total market 6.3 million, of which around 2 million are currently active (i.e. they have skied or snowboarded in the last 12 months).
This figure is much higher than any other reported to date because Vanat believes the independent sector has been under-reported. His workings are based on a 10% overall participation rate, benchmarked against other countries.
These numbers are backed up by research from the Sports Marketing Survey conducted in 2014, which suggest around 2.2 million people from the UK participated in skiing or snowboarding in the previous 12 months.
Of interest, this same survey put the active golf market at 3.5m and cyclists at just over 7m.
A bigger market is self-evidently more appealing. It's easier for start-ups to get funding and means existing players can be more bullish about potential growth.
On the other hand it means that all tour operators suddenly have a much smaller market share than previously though – but they shouldn't worry – after all, size isn't everything!

The History Department is a thriving Department as the subject continues to be a popular option at both G.C.S.E. and at AS/A2. The aims of the History Department are to build upon the enthusiasm of pupils for the subject, to broaden the students' knowledge and understanding of the past and to develop their skills of analysis and interpretation. We aim above all to encourage independent learning and personal intellectual development.
All members of the Department are well qualified History graduates who are full of enthusiasm for the subject and are proud of their ability to make the past come alive for our students.
Key Stage 3: maximum 30, Key Stage 4: maximum 28, Key Stage 5: maximum 20.
At Key Stage 3 they are taught in their form groups; and at Key Stage 4 and 5 in mixed ability groups based on option lines.
What is the % of non examination units at Key Stage 4 and Key Stage 5?
25% at Key Stage 4 and 20% at Key Stage 5.
Key Stage 3 is under review at the moment but we hope to announce some exciting outings very soon. At Key Stage 4 a visit is planned to the Thackray Medical Museum in Leeds for Year 10. For Year 11 the GCSE Controlled Assessment is based on a trip to Styal Mill. Every year or two a trip to Rome or Berlin is also organised for Key Stage 4 and 5 students.
The pupils are taught predominantly British history in a roughly chronological order.
In Year 7 this begins with the Norman invasion in 1066 through the Middle Ages to the Peasants' Revolt in 1381 and the Lollards. This is followed by Henry VIII & Edward VI and the English Reformation in the C16th.
In Year 8 pupils learn about the later Tudors; Mary I and Elizabeth I; the Stuarts, Charles I and the English Civil War, 1625-49. The course continues with life during the Industrial Revolution and the Victorians, 1750-1900, focusing on economic and political change.
In Year 9 pupils learn about aspects of the Twentieth Century: the causes and effects of the First and Second World Wars, 1914-1945, and, time permitting, the Cold War after 1945 and the collapse of communism in the Soviet Union.
Learning history is no longer simply a timeline of significant dates, events and personalities. We aim to encourage pupils to think for themselves, to be objective and critically analytical. Learning about the past is not simply a memory test; after all, our understanding of the past is based on interpretations which are subject to criticism and change.
Of course, we still learn about key events and individuals but there are also 4 themes which we keep coming back to during Key Stage 3.
Our themes are Changing Lives & Beliefs, Power & Protest, Conflict & Co-operation and Diversity.
We also focus strongly on historical thinking and historical skills especially extended writing and the analysis and interpretation of different types of evidence.
We do not teach everything in each of the periods but choose topics that are both fascinating in their own right, fit our themes and allow us to develop the pupils skills of thinking, writing and analysis.
History is not taught just using the textbook; particular interests and our expertise also allow us to pursue topics in more or less detail and to go off at tangents, often following the interests of the pupils. Nor are history lessons solely teacher led. All lessons are interactive and rely upon the input of pupils in discussions, role plays, class presentations and projects.
All pupils have a copy of the textbook in each year.
We use the Longman Thinking Through History series as our textbooks, which are ideal for both our thematic and skills led approach and full of great ideas to make pupils think, as well as really interesting activities and approaches to topics.
The GCSE course is the AQA Schools History Project. The girls follow two main courses for the examinations.
Both units will be examined in the summer of Year 11.
5% of the overall mark will be awarded for spelling, punctuation and grammar.
The Controlled Assessment will be completed in the first term of Year 11, following a site visit to Styal Mill. Candidates will submit their responses to three structured questions which they prepare under controlled conditions.
At AS we offer our students a choice of two different syllabuses.
Unit 2 - A New Roman Empire? Mussolini's Italy, 1922-45.
At A2 we offer our students a choice of two different syllabuses.
Unit 3 - British monarchy: the Crisis of the State, 1642-1689 (this can only be studied by students who have studied Britain 1603-1642 and Peter the Great at AS).
Unit 3 - British State and People, 1865-1915 (this can only be studied by those who have done Tsarist Russia and Mussolini at AS).
Unit 4 - Both syllabuses have a fourth unit which is the Independent Enquiry. This will be based on the investigation of a historical issue selected by the student from a list of options prepared by the department and it will cover a period of a hundred years. This will give the students the chance to do a substantial piece of independent research and writing.

CIRCLE A IN NYC! ALSO, BIKES!
Next: Jascha's tubes and lugs have arrived for the first disc-brake single speed Circle A! Construction starts this week!
So certainly the most dramatic event of our open house was Reba taking delivery of what she calls "the coolest f**king bike I've ever seen." And are you going to argue? No, I didn't think so.
Stealthy and sleek, it's got metallic black lettering on black, save for the silver wheat on the seat tube, a loving nod to Reba's home state of Oklahoma. If you can't make out the script on the top tube: "To the place I belong…" Note the leather Brooks bar tape – the Brooks saddle is on it's way.
Next: Finishing Jen's, and Jascha's disc-brake single speed!


Excellent work on these Flare tracks!
PS: I see you've registered - do you want me to add the other tracks to your account?
Can these be used with any project, or only Flare?
If Clint Bellanger will use this track for "Flare" you can't, and if this track will not use in "Flare" you can get it. But you must discuss it with Clint Bellanger.
Actually, because of the CC-BY license it can be used in any project (as long as the project properly attributes Alexandr Zhelanov).
Alexandr, if this is not how you expected that license to work, let us know. We can help you pick the right license.
This particular song is ten levels above everyting you could expect to find under CC license. Truly amazing. It could really make some game shine.
your work is the background music in the menus.
Be sure to check out our work on amazon or slideme, the title is: Age of Runes: Genesis.
Thanks again for the great music!

Sir John Dongan, 2nd Baronet (1603–1650) was a member of the Irish Parliament.

Early life
Dongan was born into an old Gaelic Norman (Irish Catholic) family in Castletown Kildrought (now Celbridge), County Kildare, in the Kingdom of Ireland. He was the son of Jane Rochfort and Walter Dongan (d. 1626), who was created 1st Dongan Baronet, of Castletown in the County of Kildare, in the Baronetage of Ireland in 1623.

His maternal grandparents were Robert Rochfort of Kilbryde, County Meath and Elinor Dillon (a daughter of Sir Lucas Dillon, Chief Baron of the Exchequer of Ireland).  His paternal grandparents were Margaret ( Forster) Dongan and John Dongan, originally of Fishamble Street, Dublin, a civil servant in the Irish Government who became wealthy and acquired substantial estates in County Kildare.

Career
Upon his father's death in 1626, he became the 2nd Baronet and took up residence at Castletown. He was a member of the Irish Parliament of 1634, under King Charles I of England. In 1643, he was a captain of horse.

Personal life
Dongan was married to Mary Talbot, one of eight sons and eight daughters of Sir William Talbot, 1st Baronet and the former Alison Netterville. Together, they were the parents of at least ten children, including:

 Sir Walter Dongan, 3rd Baronet (–1686), a Confederate Catholic who assembled at Kilkenny in 1646 and served under Richard Talbot, 1st Earl of Tyrconnell.
 William Dongan, 1st Earl of Limerick (–1698), the 4th Baronet who was made Viscount Dungan, of Clane in the County of Kildare in 1661 and Earl of Limerick in 1686, with remainder, failing male issue of his own, to his brothers Robert, Michael and Thomas and the heirs male of their bodies.
 Thomas Dongan, 2nd Earl of Limerick (1634–1715), the Governor of New York from 1683 to 1688.

Michigan's northern lower peninsula should expect primarily snow. The greater concerns are for central and southern lower Michigan, where significant rain and ice accumulations are possible.
There's more to the story! Keep reading!
Flooding is a concern for southeast Michigan in particular, as the storm system moves in Friday night. As much as 3 inches of rainfall accumulation is predicted for some areas.
The area of greatest concern is the central lower peninsula, including Shiawassee County, where heavy rainfall beginning late Friday is expected to transition to sleet and freezing rain overnight into Saturday and continue throughout the day on Saturday.
As much as 1/3 inches of ice accumulation is predicted, prompting the call for residents to be aware and prepared for potential power outages that could last for an extended period.

Thousands volunteer to be exposed to virus in pandemic vaccine test
Volunteers would be used as guinea pigs in a vaccine trial designed to infect volunteers with coronavirus. (Source: Abie Rohrig, John Gentle, Emory University, Vanderbilt University Hospital, CNN)(WCTV)
Published: May. 18, 2020 at 1:16 PM EDT
(CNN) — After donating a kidney last summer, Abie Rohrig is ready to be a medical volunteer again.
This time he would be a guinea pig in a vaccine trial designed to infect volunteers with coronavirus.
"Just like the nurses and the doctors on the front line, I'm willing to take some risk myself," Rohrig said. "That means that we can move through this as a nation and as a world."
He's 20 years old, lives in New York and has seen what the pandemic can do.
Knowing that, he signed up online to be a volunteer in a potential COVID-19 "human challenge vaccine" trial.
Unlike other vaccine trials, in a challenge trial, a group of volunteers would first be injected with a potential vaccine. A second control group would be injected with a placebo.
After allowing enough time for the volunteers who got the vaccine to hopefully build immunities, it's all challenged.
All the volunteers, those with and those without the trial vaccine, are intentionally contaminated with coronavirus.
It's risky and even potentially deadly. Still, it also might be a quicker path to an actual vaccine for the rest of us.
By design, some people in the trial will get sick, according to Marc Lipsitch, an epidemiologist with the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health.
"The intention is to make some people at least infected," he said.
His notion of using a challenge vaccine for COVID-19 is gaining interest from the World Health Organization. Other scientists are on board, too.
"This could save months off the off the time required to evaluate a vaccine," Lipsitch said. "The goal is to do the fastest responsible and scientifically valid way of evaluating the vaccine."
Multiple vaccines could be tried at the same time with controls put in place for proper medical care for all volunteers.
And by selecting only young, healthy adults, the chances of someone dying are extremely low, according to Lipsitch. "But it is not zero and that's why this is an altruistic act to volunteer for this."
It's not just the risk, it's the unknown risk, experts warn.
Robert Read at the University of Southampton in the United Kingdom is in favor of the idea but insists full disclosure would be necessary.
"This case is different. We're not able to quantify the risk to the volunteer," Read said. "We will have to say to them that we cannot say exactly what is going to happen to them."
It's reason for pause for a volunteer like Rohrig.
"I don't want to be naive, or arrogant," he said. "And I don't want to hide myself from the fact that there is a serious, not at all trivial risk to me doing this."
But despite the risk, 16,000 people from more than 100 countries have already signed an online form saying they are interested in becoming volunteers.
One of them is John Gentle, a U.S. Army veteran, businessman, husband and father of four from Alabama.
"I am putting more people directly related to me at a greater risk if something were to go wrong," he said. "But I feel like the risk is low."
So far, the challenge vaccine trial is hypothetical. It may or may not happen.
Still, Gentle, Rohrig and thousands of others say they're ready, if needed, to take the risk if it means they can be part of helping to end the pandemic.
