I have been playing around with a suggestion for a new project in addition to Malala's Rose I would like to do and I was curious what you thought of it.

In setting up Malala's Rose I have come across the issue that there is a lack of good educational materials from an Islamic perspective in various language. My idea would be to get a small selection of appropriate materials together and have those edited and translated in a few of the languages, like starting with Arabic, Farsi, Pashtun and Urdu.

The translations themselves are not going to be the difficult issue though. I think the issues might come up more when dealing with the various sects within the different countries.

After a lot of work and talking on the phone to Attilan and various other places, all of those who wished to leave Avalon have been re-homed and will be taken care of. Unfortunately, that wasn't many of them - most of the people who lived there remained to rebuild their houses. The Red Cross has provided water filtration equipment and food packages, so they can survive in the meantime.

After Magneto, the volcano and the tsunami, I can only hope they have had enough of the disasters and can now live in peace.

I will be out of the office for most of the day in case anyone tries to contact me. I have meetings in the city with various representatives and hopefully we will be able to pin down a final location for Malala's Rose soon. We have narrowed it down to four or five possible locations by now and we are awaiting the most recent security analysis.

Of course, the cooperation of some people in Afghanistan would be nice as well.

All the materials from Elpis surrounding their version of the Afghanistan shelter project have arrived. There are about twelve boxes and they were very complete because they even included the box with the samples of the education methods we evaluated last summer. I had them put in a supply closet so they would not be in the way as I go through them one by one.

Since we have all arrived safely home, merci a le bon dieu, I thought it might be useful to update on status.

Aghanne, of course, made her escape. So, too, did Bemba, the weasel. Monsieur Ord is home in Scotland receiving therapy after Aghanne's control on him broke. He seems to be having more difficulty recovering than the children Aghanne was using as her pawns. Perhaps this is because children are more resilient in general, or perhaps because Ord was a more important cog in Aghanne's plane, who knows.

The children are being seen to, and seem to be recovering well.

Angelo, if you are checking this, close your computer and put it away. Work will wait for you.

I've been contacted by a man in the Central African Republic about an issue he's having with exceptionally high mutant birth rates.  He got my name from some mutual contacts and Elpis pointed him my way, and I think we should go take a look.

So who wants to go to Africa?

My first act as the real official boss of people instead of just the office manager, is this.

If anyone comes to work when I and/or the doctors don't think they're physically or mentally fit to be there, they will be removed from the office by any means necessary and as often as necessary, up to and including fireman's carry, until such time as they're in better condition.  On full pay, naturally.

Such is my decree and as such is beyond contestation.

Muahahahaha.
