# Albert Ullin

Albert Henry Ullin OAM (29 April 1930 – 12 September 2018) was a German Australian bookseller and the founder of Australia's first children's bookstore, The Little Bookroom. He nurtured emerging children's writers and illustrators.

## Early years

Ullin was born in Frankfurt, and arrived in Melbourne in 1939 as a nine-year-old, escaping pre-war Germany via Italy with his family.

The bookstore was first established in the Metropol Arcade before moving to an Elizabeth St location, opposite the GPO. The store later relocated to Carlton with a small branch at Degraves Street. The bookstore was named after Eleanor Farjeon's book of short stories "The Little Bookroom" and Ullin wrote to Farjeon to request the use of the name and to illustrator Edward Ardizzone requesting an illustration to be the logo for the bookstore.

# No Frills (Nik Kershaw album)

No Frills is the live album by Nik Kershaw, recorded live at his own Shorthouse Studios and released on 1 February 2010 under his own record label. Initially, the album was only available for purchase online via Kershaw's web site through his own indie vanity label, Shorthouse Records.
Kershaw regards his subsequent album Ei8ht as his eighth album as No Frills was "90 per cent old songs, it was just different acoustic versions of those old songs. I didn't really count that as a collection of original work."

Her music style is associated with House, Techno, Electro, and Ambient.

## Biography

Celeste was born in Chile, but moved to the United Kingdom when she was 12, as her mother married an English man.
She had her first contact with electronic music at rave parties in the Lake District at the age of 15. By 17 she was taught to mix vinyl by friend, and future fellow Bristol resident; DJ and producer Kowton. After completing high school, Celeste moved to Bristol for an illustration course at the University of the West of Englandin 2008. In Bristol, she became a resident DJ at student orientated house, disco and techno night Super Ultra Mega at Lab club. Through this she got to know Chris Farrell (DJ), a Bristol based DJ and head of the record label Idle Hands, for whom she started working in a part-time job at the label's eponymous record store in 2011, which was at the time located on Stokes Croft. Celeste went on to co-run another label BRSTL with Farrell, taking over the creative business partnership from Rhythmic Theory. It was on this label that Celeste released her debut Need Your Lovin' (Baby) in 2013.
During her time in Bristol, she also became a resident at club night "Housework" (originally a sister night to Super Ultra Mega), before taking over promoting duties (along with fellow Bristol based DJs Gramrcy, Daisy Moon and Golesworthy (DJ)) with the intention to attract DJs to Bristol from outside the city. Later they would bring the night to Berlin.
Celeste was nominated Best Newcomer DJ in the 2015 edition of the DJ Awards. In 2016, Celeste relocated to Berlin. The following year, she debuted her own label, Peach Discs which she runs with Gramrcy and now runs a label related club night Club Celeste (and previously one named Peach Party) in London and Bristol.
The DJ's tour schedules have included performances at some of the world's most renowned nightclubs, clubbing events and festivals, such as Berlin's techno temple Berghain, Corsica Studios in London, Freerotation, Dutch festival Dekmantel, Bloc Festival, Boomtown (festival), Tresor (club), Glastonbury Festival, Discwoman, Wigflex, Love International Festival, Bestival, DC10 (nightclub), Moogfest, Amsterdam Dance Event and the Bulgarian indie festival Meadows In The Mountains.

# 2022 Kabul hotel attack

On 12 December 2022, insurgents attacked a hotel popular with foreigners in Kabul, Afghanistan. At least 3 civilians were killed and 18 others, including foreigners, were reported to be injured. Islamic State – Khorasan Province claimed responsibility for the attack.

## Background

The Islamic State–Taliban conflict began in 2015; since then they have often attacked Kabul. In September 2022, a suicide bomber blew himself up outside the Russian Embassy in Kabul, killing two Russian diplomats. In early December, gunmen attacked the Pakistani ambassador at his embassy compound in Kabul, wounding a Pakistani guard. On 11 December, Chinese ambassador to Afghanistan Wang Yu met Afghan Deputy Foreign minister Sher Mohammad Abbas Stanikzai to discuss security matters, and called on the Taliban "to pay more attention to the security of the Chinese Embassy in Kabul."

## Attack

Around 14:30 local time on 12 December 2022, insurgents attacked the Kabul Longan Hotel in Afghanistan. Residents reported hearing a powerful explosion followed by gunfire.

## Victims

3 people were killed and 18 injured. Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mojahid confirmed the attack ended with all three gunmen killed, and hotel guests were evacuated. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian said that five Chinese nationals were among the injured.

## Responsibility

On 13 December 2022, jihadist group Islamic State-Khorasan Province claimed responsibility for the attack in a Telegram post. The IS statement claimed the hotel was attacked because the hotel is frequented by diplomats and is owned by "communist China" . The Islamic State has a history of opposition to the Chinese government in relation to the government's persecution of Uyghurs, and has been critical of the Taliban for its willingness to cooperate with China. The statement claimed the attackers detonated pre-planted explosives and set fire to the building.
One of the attackers died during the attack while the second attacker, a Tajik national, managed to escape by scaling down the side of the Hotel. This same Tajik IS member would later carry out the 1 January, 2023, suicide bombing at Kabul Airport.

# Council for Maintaining the Occupations

The Council for Maintaining the Occupations (French: Conseil pour le Maintien des Occupations), or CMDO, was a revolutionary committee formed during the May 1968 events in France originating in the Sorbonne. The council favored the continuation of wildcat general strikes and factory occupations across France, maintaining them through directly democratic workers' councils. Within the revolutionary movement, it opposed the influence of major trade unions and the French Communist Party who intended to contain the revolt and compromise with General Charles de Gaulle.
The council implemented a policy of equal representation for its participants. It was described by Situationist René Viénet as "essentially an uninterrupted general assembly, deliberating day and night. No faction or private meetings ever existed outside the common debate." It was formed on the evening of May 17, by supporters of the Sorbonne Occupation Committee.
