Dear friends
 
We are in the parliament of Bosnia and Herzegovina. There is shoot-
ing all around us, they are trying to scare us.
 
But there is no fear among us. We are not afraid. We want our peace
and freedom. Please tell the world about us. They have to help us
defend the city of Sarajevo, and our homeland Bosnia and
Herzegovina.
 
Our beautiful Bascarsija is being destroyed, and the old parts of
the city are being rocketed. Snipers are all around, shooting at the
empty-handed people.
 
Friends, we shall not give up.
 
Please support our pledge for peace.
 
Best regards from all of us who want peace and freedom.

		   DOCUMENTARY FILM PRODUCERS
		   CALL NORIEGA VERDICT A SHAM

	The Empowerment Project, producers of a soon-to-be
	released feature length documentary film on the 1989
	U.S. invasion of Panama today called the trial and verdict
	convicting Manuel Noriega a "sham."  Joanne Doroshow, one
	of the film's co-producers, said, "The legality of
	Noriega' arrest and trial appears to violate some of the
	most basic tenants of international law, as the 1989
	invasion clearly did.  And since the jury was prohibited
	from hearing some of the most sensitive evidence about
	Noriega's longstanding relationship with the U.S.
	intelligence community, and presidents Reagan and Bush,
	this trial makes a mockery of U.S. justice and our jury
	system."

	According to the film's director Barbara Trent, Invasion
	in Panama (working title) will be released in movie
	theaters throughout the country in conjunction with a
	major organizing effort, beginning early summer and
	continuing through the November elections. "The 1989
	invasion of Panama, while a 'PR' success for the current
	administration, was a human rights disaster of incredible
	magnitude," said Trent. "Entire neighborhoods were bombed
	and destroyed, thousands died, 15 mass graves have been
	identified, and tens of thousands of refugees still
	exist.

	 "The officially stated goals for the invasion -- to save
	 American lives, to apprehend Noriega, to protect the
	 canal, and to restore democracy -- have virtually nothing
	 to do with why we invaded. Rather, our main purpose was
	 to install an atmosphere and internal structure in Panama
	 that would permit the U.S. to abrogate the 1977
	 Carter/Torrijos treaties, ultimately allowing the U.S. to
	 maintain its 14 strategic military bases there after the
	 year 2000. On December 5, 1991, President Bush signed
	 into law a congressional directive to accomplish just
	 that.  This is a story which every American voter
	 deserves to know before November."

	Invasion in Panama's 35 minute sample reel has already
	been acclaimed as a short piece and has received awards at
	the 1991 Hallwalls Videowitness Festival of New
	Journalism, at the American Film and Video Association
	(AFVA) Festival and at the Sinking Creek Film Festival.
	It was also screened in 1990 at the Havana Film Festival
	in Cuba, and in 1991 at the North-South Meetings
	(Recontres Medias Nord Sud) in Geneva, the Women in the
	Director's Chair Film Festival, in Chicago, the Trieste
	(Italy) Festival of Latin American Cinema and Philafilm in
	Philadelphia. It is being produced in association with
	Channel Four, London.

BOLIVIA:  DEA IMPLICATED IN DRUG MURDER
 
La Paz, April 9(RHC)--Two of Bolivia's most important political
organizations charge that the United States had a hand in a drug-
trafficking and murder case that's now before the courts.  The
center-right Revolutionary Nationalist Movement says Washington
should be asked to investigate the part played by the Drug
Enforcement Agency (DEA) in the 1986 murders of U.S. scientist
Noel Kemph and two of his aides in the eastern jungle region
bordering Brazil.
 
The organization charges that the DEA knew of the existence
of a drug-trafficking center there long before Kemph and his men
arrived on the scene where they were killed.  And the United LEft
Coalition has demanded that the head of the DEA in Bolivia stand
trial because he, too, had prior knowledge of the drug-
trafficking base.
 
And in eastern Bolivia, civic and community organizations are
calling for a five-minute work stoppage tomorrow to demand that
the Kemph murder case be solved.  They say they are hoping to
stop a gentlemen's agreement among political parties which could
block the current parliamentary investigation into the murder.
The first investigation ended inconclusively.

                   WHICH GLORIFIES GREED AND PROFIT
            WITH A NEW, TRULY DEMOCRATIC ALTERNATIVE REALITY
                        OF CARING AND SHARING?

  If your answer is YES, then it's time for you to join ARISE!

o ARISE demands an end to the arms race and the threat of nuclear war.

o ARISE demands an end to apartheid in South Africa and all forms of  
discrimination in the United States and everywhere in the world.

o ARISE demands an end to aid to the contras in Nicaragua and the remaval  
of all US. troops from Central America so that the people of that region  
can solve their own problems. To assist in accomplishing that goal, ARISE  
is proposing a one trillion dollar lawsuit against the Executive branch of  
the U Government (and particularly the CIA) for all illegal wars it has  
waged over the past three decades.

o ARISE asserts that all people willing and able to work are entitled, BY  
RIGHT, to a decent job at a decent wage and will receive it.

o ARISE asserts that all people are entitled to be secure in their homes  
and farms against evictions and foreclosures and is already actively  
opposing speculators' efforts to evict homeowners in Nassau County, New  
York. The new reality will give ownership of homes, farms and apartment  
buildings to the people who live there. We believe: "THIS LAND IS YOUR  
LAND: THIS LAND IS MY LAND!"

o ARISE asserts that all people are entitled to, and will receive, free  
comprehensive medical care, regardless of financial means.

o ARISE asserts that all people are entitled to, and will receive, free  
education to the highest levels in accordance with their ability and  
effort.

o ARISE asserts that our disabled and our older people are entitled to,  
and will receive, retirement with dignity on a living wage with funds  
saved by ending the arms race.

o ARISE asserts that the people are entitled, BY RIGHT, to run  
democratically ALL INSTITUTIONS in our society-political, economic, social  
and military. The new reality will require that all candidates for office  
have equal access to the media regardless of financial means.

"CELINA RAMOS" COMMUNITY RECONSTRUCTION BRIGADE

April 8, 1992

We are writing this bulletin seeking your support for the "Celina
Ramos" Community Reconstruction Brigade.

The "Celina Ramos" community is located at the skirt of El Cerro
de Guazapa, San Salvador.
This community consists of 19 families and 45 children who have
spent the last 12 years fleeing from the army and
other governmental security forces.  Now, they have begun the
ardous task of building their community community from the ground
up.

The "Celina Ramos" community is looking for a tractor (80 to 100
horse power) to begin cultivating their land which had been badly
damaged by intensive bombing.  The need for this tractor is
urgent.  The tractor could be donated or sold sold at a reduced
price to them.

If you know of anyone who will donate or sell this type of tractor
to this community for a reduced price, please call the El Salvador
Peace Project at the following the numbers:

New York (212) 799-2384 Boston   (617) 522 5390

          THE WINDS OF CHANGE WILL BLOW THROUGH CHICAGO

     This year give everyone's mother a big present.  Come to 
Chicago with ADAPT and save the thousands of mothers who have 
been locked away in nursing homes.  66% of nursing home residents 
are women.  They deserve the right to get help in their own 
homes, but without your voice joining the call for justice this 
will not happen.  So come to Chicago this mothers day and free 
our people!

      "Won't you please come to Chicago.  No one else can take 
your place....  We can change the world!"  -- Graham Nash

     Sweet home Chicago! was the cry of jubilation from the 
Chicago ADAPT groups when it was decided at ADAPT's planning 
meeting in January that the windy city would be the site of our 
spring action.  With so many hard core ADAPT activists as locals, 
this  should prove to be one of our most intense actions!  They 
are already hard at work checking out possible targets, 
organizing local support, and the rest of the pre- work so 
critical for our actions.  Potential targets include: one of the 
largest regional Health and Human Services divisions, the 
American Medical Association (you can't get put in a nursing home 
without doctor's orders and many are owned by doctors), the home 
district of Representative Dan Rostenkowski who chairs the 
powerful House Ways and Means (budget) Committee, and, of course, 
many representatives of the nursing home industry.

     We will be staying in a busy downtown area and local folks 
are checking out not only the targets for actions, but also cheap 
places to eat, etc.  If you can drive, please do -- we will need 
as many vehicles as possible.

     In addition there will be a training/meeting the first day 
to go over ADAPT's position on redirecting Medicaid nursing home 
funds for a national attendant services program.  Legal issues 
and strategies for non-violent demonstrations will also be cove 
red.  New folks need to attend, and even old- times are 
encouraged to come and share their experiences and ideas.

     This is one action you won't want to miss!  Plan to arrive 
May 8th and leave May 14th.  Call Robin/Wade/Mike to reserve your 
room, let them know if you need an airport pick up, etc. Call 
them at 303/733-9324.

I would assume them to be Lotus (the one that's in trouble),
Ashton-Tate (the one that's been bought out), and WordStar International
(known originally as MicroPro, I think, the one that's almost gone).  
Back then, WordPerfect was probably still only available on Data General 
hardware.  It certainly wasn't the player at the start of the '80s that 
it was at the end.  And Borland got started in the middle, when it was
probably selling more CP/M copies of Turbo Pascal than it was for DOS.

Interestingly, there remain three strong threats to Microsoft: Borland,
WordPerfect, and Novell.  However, unless WordPerfect is able to
diversify from their DOS product (their Windows and Mac programs haven't
done so well), it may be down to two.  The joining of Lotus and Novell 
was called off at the last minute, and I wouldn't be suprised to see 
another mega-merger on the scale of Borland acquiring Ashton-Tate. To be
able to compete with Microsoft, you must either have a niche that they
don't want, or be big enough to spend $$$ on advertising.

Motif Programming: The Essentials...and More
Marshall Brain
1992, Digital Press / Prentice Hall
ISBN 0-13-489378-6
Paperback, 600 pages
$30.00

This is a straightforward introduction to Motif application
development. It eases you into Motif programming smoothly and
quickly, even though you may have little or no experience 
with X or other window programming environments. It provides
simple examples and simple explanations. It shows you how to
design and build graphical applications with Motif in a
reasonable amount of time.

The key concept behind this book is that Motif is a very simple,
beautifully-designed way of creating graphical user interfaces.
The simplicity is hard to see because Motif is surrounded by a
mass of complexity. This book tries to keep the layers of 
complexity from overwhelming you as you develop an understanding
of the fundamental forces that drive Motif. It provides you
with enough advanced details to bring you to the point where
you can do useful, creative work and produce applications
on your own.

Software That Works                                                        
Michael Ward
Academic Press, Incorporated, 1990.  Hard.  ISBN: 0-12-735040-3.  $45.00.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Why do some software projects succeed while others fail --- even when the
same people are involved?  Is software development an art, a science, or a
little of both?  Can software development really be "managed"?  _Software
That Works_ delivers the answers to these and other vital questions dealing
with software development.  Drawing upon his years of experience, Michael
Ward gives a "real world" view of how software is developed and tested.
His results-oriented approach covers such topics as:

o  software design and communication of the design
o  the importance of prototype development and the <greater importance of
   discarding prototypes>
o  making flow charts really work for you
o  using data dictionaries to keep track of data elements in your software
o  the dangers of reusing or "beefing up" existing software instead of
   starting from scratch
o  using "state machine" concepts in software development

Ward uses several examples from his own experience to illustrate his
points, plus shows two actual software design projects from their
inception.  Written in a direct, humorous fashion and loaded with
information, we like this book a lot.
