BRONSON, Iowa | As the sun crept over the horizon east of Shane and Angie Williams' home on Saturday morning, their dog, Bullet, limped home.
"He just came home this morning," Angie said, petting the dog as he kept his right hind leg off the ground.
Home. Or what's left of it. The Williams family lost just about everything when a tornado hammered their farmstead three miles southeast of Bronson early Friday night. The home's roof and exterior walls were blown apart, as were two garages, a barn, a machine shed, a corn crib and more.
On Saturday morning, Shane Williams went from picking up books inside a bedroom to hopping into a John Deere tractor cab that has no glass. The tractor started, allowing him to push an empty semi back on its wheels.
Shattered glass, broken boards, twisted metal and busted toys littered the farm, leaving the couple and their oldest son, Cody, 19, to collect the pieces and make some sense of it all.
"It was quiet, really quiet," Shane William says, as he examined hulks of metal thrown into the head of his John Deere combine. "It wasn't that freight train sound you hear about."
He was home around 6:30 p.m. Friday with Cody and three of the younger Williams children: Dakota, Casey and Haley. Daughter Ashley, homecoming queen at Lawton-Bronson High School, had already departed for a football game at rival Woodbury Central High School in nearby Moville. Angie was gone, too, picking up items in a store at Kingsley, Iowa, some 20 miles north.
"We heard about the storms south of here on the radio," said Shane Williams, who farms, feeds livestock and works as a seed dealer. "We went into the house and then I looked out and saw the storm coming. It was wrapped in rain.
"Then it got real quiet, real eerie, and that's when I had the kids go to the cellar," he said.
Shane and Cody Williams peered out and saw corn stalks swirling above. They bolted down the stairs as the twister struck, ripping apart the home and every building on this hilltop acreage, killing two of their horses in the process.
"You could feel the pressure change in your ears," Cody Williams said.
In seconds, or maybe a minute or two, it was over. The storm went up Eastland Avenue, barreling north toward Bronson. It struck the Packard home a half-mile north, then Ruth Jensen's house, destroying both. Nobody was home at either place.
It then hit the George and Mary Jane Seubert farm, toppling four outbuildings and sending a tree through the roof. Their home, however, appeared saved. The Seuberts, like the Packards and Jensen, weren't home. They were in Washington, D.C., attending the wedding of a family member.
"You look at the destruction this thing did and you can't believe nobody was hurt," said Dave Amick, former Woodbury County sheriff who serves as mayor of Bronson, population 323. "It really is a miracle."
The massive system, a rarity for October, spawned at least six tornadoes that injured up to 15 people in Wayne, Neb., and toppled homes and livestock facilities while snapping trees and power lines from Wayne to Alta, Iowa. In some areas, destruction blankets a mile-wide swath.
Homes fell in at least eight communities, including Wayne, Jackson, and Macy, Neb., and in or near the Iowa towns of Bronson, Climbing Hill, Sloan, Moville, Kingsley, and Pierson.
Damage to corn and soybean crops on the eve of harvest may exceed the monetary loss homeowners and renters suffered.
"We were just going to start harvest," said Cody Williams, a junior at Dordt College in Sioux Center, Iowa. "And now the corn is down all over here."
Corn was flat across several fields southeast of Bronson on Saturday. The same was seen up a jagged path in Siouxland, running southwest to northeast. Hail, widespread in this frightful weather event, can knock mature soybeans to the ground, rendering a harvest effort futile. There's a chance farmers may salvage corn ears that now rest atop the soil.
In the early morning hours on Saturday, the harvest wasn't yet registering on the radar of Shane Williams, lifelong farmer. He worked to obtain enclosed trailers as a shelter for family possessions and keepsakes thrown about his farm.
"Angie, we need to get as much of our stuff protected from the rain," he said.
The family spent Friday night in the home of Shane's father, Norman Williams, two miles southeast of here. Where Bullet took shelter from the storm, the family isn't sure. They'll never know. They're just thankful he hopped back home.
As the sun rose, so did activity at the farm. More than 40 friends and Lawton-Bronson teachers, staff members and students descended on the farm to help the family pick up the pieces. The Lawton-Bronson volleyball team, a team led by senior Ashley Williams, canceled a tournament appearance on Saturday so teammates could help with cleanup detail.
"We've got teachers, volleyball players, junior high football players, parents and adults throughout the community here helping," said Jeff Thelander, superintendent of schools at Lawton-Bronson. "It's a powerful response. We'll continue to help people in our district on Sunday, and, on Monday, we'll have things put in place to help our students who have been affected."
The American Red Cross was also on hand throughout the area, providing coffee, water and snacks. A crew from Mapleton, Iowa, a community battered by a 2011 tornado, popped up at homes and farms around Moville and Climbing Hill, Iowa, offering helping hands in exchange for the assistance Mapleton residents received two years ago.
Back at Bronson, neighbor Kelly Brower worked with Cody Williams to pull tools and toys from the brick and glass where a Williams garage once stood. Brower couldn't believe the mayhem left in seconds by this twister. He was just as astonished at his own luck.
"I live a quarter-mile from here," Brower said, "and we weren't touched."

The essence of data analysis involves setting up data pipelines that consist of several operations that are chained together – starting from data collection, data quality checks, data integration, data analysis and data visualization (including the setting up of interaction paths in that visualization). In our opinion, the challenges stem from the technology diversity at each stage of the data pipeline as well as the lack of process around the analysis.

Andy then challenges seven contestants to a mini-triathlon in Santa Monica, but two prove to be divas, not athletes. And he spends a romantic evening aboard the yacht with "first-impression rose" winner Stephanie T. before casting off three hopefuls, leaving 12 remaining.

The latest plastic surgery phenomenon in Thailand is cosmetic surgery to enhance buttocks size.
A Bangkok clinic is suggesting the idea waist to hip ratio is 0.8; for example, a 26" waist would be ideal with 35" hips. At 0.6, a woman would be deemed overweight, any less than 0.8, and her figure would be considered childish or, worse, masculine. That's where the butt boosters come in.
"This service is relatively new in Thailand as full hips were not so popular before. However, ever since the Latino craze swept the entertainment world, the ideal body image has shifted to fuller, curvier looks as opposed to stick-thin ones," a press release for the Bangkok Plastic Surgery Clinic said.
"The procedure, when carried out by certified surgeons, takes only a few hours and has minimal risks. Patients are usually able to resume work in a matter of weeks. It takes about three months for the swelling to completely subside and for the implants to settle into their normal position."
Thai women are naturally petite, and often have very slender, straight bodies. As opposed to westerners who opt for surgeries that make them less curvaceous, an increasing amount of Asian women are seeking out alternatives to enhance the size of curves.
For those not quite ready to go under the knife, but still looking for a little somethin' extra to shake, might prefer Padded Underwear:

Robin Roberts' Alleged Stalker Arrested by Police
A man has been accused of stalking "Good Morning America" anchor Robin Roberts (II) and even threatening to punch her in the face. The man who was identified as 42-year-old Troy Warren was arrested on Monday, July 28, following reports from the studio security guards.
According to court records, Warren showed up outside the ABC studios in New York at least eight times between June 10 and June 24 while Roberts was inside the studio. The man, who was believed to be homeless, demanded to see Roberts. "When I see her, I'm going to punch her in the face," he told "GMA" security director Michael Centrella. He also said that the cancer-surviving anchor owed him some money.
"Due to the defendant's above described conduct, Ms. Robin Roberts fears for her physical safety and well-being," the authorities said.
"The safety and security of the entire GMA family is a priority and we are grateful for the Disney security team and their vigilance," ABC said in a statement to E! News, "we broadcast from Times Square, one of the busiest areas of Manhattan, and are lucky to have the support of NYPD in ensuring the safety of our employees and audience."
Warren was arraigned on Wednesday, July 30, in Manhattan Criminal Court. He pleaded not guilty to stalking in the fourth degree and harassment in the first degree, both misdemeanors. A judge set bail at $3,000 and issued an order of protection mandating that Warren stay away from Roberts.
Warren's next court appearance is scheduled for August 4.

Mobile users can tug at their heartstrings here.
Deep Silver have just released a CGI trailer for Dead Island Riptide and like that very first trailer for Dead Island, it definitely tugs at the heartstrings. Don't expect the game to contain anything closely resembling emotional depth however, Deep Silver keep those moments exclusively for trailers.

Day 2 of 7
"The only certainty we have in this world is that the world will continue to be uncertain."
Just look at the super brands that dominated the industry in the past few years. Many of them are disintegrating. Corporate restructuring and the tyranny of the quarterly reports from large corporations have put so much stress to the warriors of the corporate world.
It has been said that the 21st century currency will no longer involve money, it will be time. Time turns out to be the ever-precious commodity that seems to be coming in short supply these days.
And in the midst of this turmoil, we yearn for stability, a sense that as the winds of change intensify to enormous scale, there is something firm and steadfast on which we can depend on.
Slowly but surely, I am convinced that as the world may constantly change, there will always be two things that will remain the same. One is change and the other one of course is Christ.
The Bible tells us, "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and forever." It does not say ׂexcept in the business world." Understanding this Truth and learning to live it, brings to us stability and provides us with security.
However, there is this nagging question: How can faith in Christ be made relevant in a world where business people like me need to battle with all kinds of "lines?" like, deadlines, headlines, break-even-lines and profit lines?
How can we integrate faith with work in the field of business and search for that sense of security and stability, which may competently equip us to deal with the challenges of an even more uncertain future?
Let me tell you a story.
One day a businessman was lying down on his deathbed. Death was sure and the businessman somehow knew this. The family was crying and so they asked for a priest to administer the last rites.
The priest was preparing the man for his long day's journey into night. Whispering firmly, the priest said, "Denounce the devil! Let him know how little you think of his evil!"
The dying businessman said nothing. The priest repeated his order. Still the dying man said nothing.
The priest asked, "Why do you refuse to denounce the devil and his evil?"
The dying man said, "I'm a businessman and I've been trained carefully. Until I know where I'm heading, I don't think I want to aggravate anybody."
This is a very typical thinking process that goes on in the minds of business people; very pragmatic, very sensible and very practical.
But do we know that having an intimate personal experience with Christ brings forth wisdom and power to live a life of victory? Don't we know that The Bible offers wisdom that is so practical and sensible?
This could all start on having a deep personal and intimate relationship with Jesus Christ. This may sound silly to a world that does not know Him but let us not forget that God's wisdom is constantly in operation.
Challenge: Do you find this to be true? If so, how does it fit with your life story?
The business world seem like the play ground full of non-Christian affairs. It asks for compromises that good values can be jeopardized. The big dilemma of business people who love God is how to play in this field with integrity and carrying the banner of Christ, the Son of God! This reading plan gives wise principles to guide us to live with Biblical values in the corporate world.

Raising funds: Government opens doors to private lenders - Express Tribunesponsored links
DOUBLED RETURNS: 6% is the minimum deposit rate, while around 12%
is the rate of return on Treasury Bills. DESIGN: ALI DARAB
ISLAMABAD: The government has decided, in-principle, to allow individual depositors to invest in government securities through commercial banks; a move aimed at boosting declining savings and ensuring almost double returns to investors against what they currently receive from banks.
Individual depositors will now have the option to ask banks to invest their deposits in government security papers, sources in the Finance Ministry have said. In return, banks will charge a nominal service fees on these investments.
The government had earlier allowed pensioners and trust funds to invest in national saving schemes in a bid to give them better returns on their savings.
Authorities have completed consultations with commercial banks, and the latter have endorsed the proposal. The decision will take effect from July 1, the first day of fiscal year 2012-13.
Central bank data shows that, till April, scheduled banks held Rs5.93 trillion in deposits; higher by Rs800 billion or 15.6% over the corresponding month last year. Currently, the minimum deposit rate is 6% raised only recently from 5%.
On May 2, the federal government issued treasury bills worth Rs150 billion with three- or six- months maturity period. The three-month papers were sold at 11.87%, while the mark-up on six-month papers was 11.94%, according to the State Bank of Pakistan.
By obtaining deposits at the minimum rate of 6%, banks invest this money in treasury papers at almost double rates, securing hefty profits. Almost half of banks deposits have been invested in government papers. The ratio is 65% in case of the two largest banks in the country, according to the central bank.
The government remains the largest borrower due to its burgeoning expenses; which have outstripped revenues at an unprecedented pace. According to finance ministry documents, from July through March the federal governments budget deficit swelled to Rs1.39 trillion 6.6% of the total economy and the highest ever in nine months. The deficit includes Rs391 billion in payments to reduce circular debt from last year.
According to a recent report by the International Monetary Fund, Pakistan will require Rs7.3 trillion, or 30.3% of its Gross Domestic Product, to meet debt and deficit liabilities for the coming financial year.
Low savings have become increasingly problematic for the country and have resulted in low investment and higher unemployment. Against every hundred rupees earned, Pakistan saves a little over Rs13. The same ratio is 45.5% in China and 29% in India. Average South Asian saving rates are 26%, double Pakistans saving rates.
Pension fund
Sources said the government has also decided to establish a pension fund for civil servants. The fund was announced last year but could not be implemented, they added. The fund will serve only the newly-inducted employees.
If employees want to avail pension after retirement, they will have to surrender a part of their salaries; while in return, the government will also contribute a share to double what the civil servant will contribute, the sources said.
PERSONAL NOTE: The folks who have been following me and interacting with me, I want those folks to guess what this move is..
Thats right! This is a desperate move by the Govt to cut off the middle-man (Commercial Banks) and get the most out of the savings of ordinary citizens. No matter how much rate you get on these Deposit accounts, they will NEVER be higher than the inflation rate! Do not save anything in RUPEE or RUPEE denominated assets. Folks we are seeing the final attempts by the Govt to suck on the last few drops of blood of the ordinary citizens. I am starting to wonder if a Pakistani default would lay the ground for Greece to default.

Re: Raising funds: Government opens doors to private lenders - Express Tribune
UPDATE NEWS: IPPs give 72-hour ultimatum
LAHORE - The advisory council of independent power producers (IPPs) has issued an ultimatum of 72 hours to the government for the non-payment of Rs 34 billion, failing which the IPPs legal counsel will proceed with legal options. The ultimatum was issued after the failure of government to honor its sovereign commitment. Moreover, eight IPPs served another fresh notice for payment of Rs 9 billion to the government. Sources said the government must act positively to avoid any embarrassment in court of law, as the industry was facing a hard time with severe cash crunch, especially when banks had stopped further loans. However, in the larger national interest, the IPPs are continuing to run their plants on the basis of fuel payment they got from NTDC for a few hours. The sources revealed that despite this huge default, the IPPs were generating power per their commitment based on funds they were given for fuel, but the situation was getting worse day by day.
The IPPs would soon start to default on their loans, both short-term and project loans from the banks, which would cause another of Pakistani industry (banks) to collapse. The sources said since the deadline of the final 10-day notice of Rs 34 billion payment ended on May 4, 2012, which was served by the same eight IPPs on April 19, it had become evident that soon the IPPs would have all their investment jeopardized by the government's indifference towards financial woes of these power producers. They said a case outside Pakistan against this sovereign default would immediately result in severe reactions by the global financial sectors. The banks, they added, would stop honouring trade documents from Pakistani banks and would insist on cash payments.
PERSONAL NOTE: I have mentioned in the past that I expect the Commercial Banks in Pakistan to collapse. I was thinking that it would be triggered by Govt bonds loosing values, hence erasing bank capital. I missed this situation. I am honestly starting to feel that the Greek default will come after Pakistan's default."City-States trade Commerce. Nation-States trade Wars" - Seneca

currently the ONLY currency that is undervalued is the RMB. Common sense dictates that the only currency that will maintain value or maybe appreciate will be RMB. I feel Russia,Norway & Brazil is in decent spot too. lekin thats not a market i follow that closely. Canadian is decent too.

commodity based currencies will perform better apart from aussie as they are about to reduce interest rates & canada is back in production coz of summer.

Re: Raising funds: Government opens doors to private lenders - Express Tribune
You are mistaken on this one. Look at this
You see Australia is riding on the commodity demand from China. China is slowing down and you see the effects of that on the above provided link. There is an immense bubble in the Australian Property market. If the incomes fall, Australia will have its version of Financial crisis.
There's an excellent book out there by John Mauldin called ENDGAME covering US, China, Australia, Canada and other countries

Re: Raising funds: Government opens doors to private lenders - Express Tribune
I m saying the same that aussie will not perform or appreciate coz they are reducing interest rates for all these reasons but canadian dollar will perform as america is trying to import as much as they can from canada & that will boost canadian dollar during the time of european crisis. Australian bank already reduced its interest rates last week thats why aussie is under pressure.

Re: Raising funds: Government opens doors to private lenders - Express Tribune
Well, disgusted by PTI followers' attitude during past two days, I was not in a mood to comment yet understanding that if I stir a bowl of filth and try to find something good, all that will come out is foul smell, I have given a suggestion to the moderators that either this forum should be labelled siasat.pk-a face or a front for PTI or I should report it to PEMRA and other concerning authorities through some people that I know. Even their language doesn't offend me to the extent that their lack of understanding. Seems like they just jump on to the keyboard and start typing with all their might to crush the person at the other end and completely forget what the other person has tried to point out. Imran is the new altaf bhai, bhutto and zia-all in one package. So much so for occasional frustration that comes with being a reasoning individual and then trying to reason with know-it-all teenagers and some elders who are teenagers wannabes.
Now coming to this point. My question again, suggest me all of you mates the date when a proper civil war ignites and then NATO forces jump in to save us and our nuclear assets? I also dread the attitude when I see at this blokes who follow PTI that making them more concrete towards such attitude might also be preparation for a civil war and they become the fodder of it in no time. And we all know that the opponents also snap at one point in time being humans.
About IPPs and electricity issue, I was talking to a very senior and fortunately and very reasonable higher official of WAPDA who told me that there is no issue at all with meeting demands of the electricity. The only issue is that almost all officials and government reps want all the money to go directly into their pockets be it from receiving electricity bills or any other revenue generated through WAPDA's installations or projects and they would want payments to come from the heavens. Moreover, during any high-profile meeting, they don't even mention the problems as they doesn't exist in the first place but the ways they can increase their earnings. With the dissolution of PEPCO, non-professionals have been appointed to manage electricity distribution and they are wreaking havoc as we all can see.
By the by, I am trying to think upon the possibility of getting the strongest of acids and make a mixture to put on ATMs and get money out of them at night . On a serious note, I fear that if civil war starts, even people like us might want to rob the nearest banks or markets of money and guess what (as you all know) the robbed bank notes will be worthless pieces of paper.

I am a layman when it comes to economics but it seems that you are absolutely right. The gravity of the situation is indeed appalling.
I have some money in RUPPESS in the banks. What do you suggest me in the simplest of the words to do with it in order to save it from the wrath of piggy-faced Zardari and his cronies?

Re: Raising funds: Government opens doors to private lenders - Express Tribune
I honestly didnt see that sledge-hammer coming from the IPP side to the commercial banks. Months ago I thought Pakistan has 18 months. Now that sounds way too optimistic.
Why even bother break the broke banks! Stay in touch with farmers. Try to build a supply chain around the ppl u live with. World wont end but there is be alot of misery. Those who advocate a simple way of life, without modernity, will have a chance to taste their wishes come true.

Fisker faces bankruptcy as workers file suit over layoffs
The Fisker Automotive board of directors was scheduled to meet this morning and among the topics of discussion would most certainly be the possible timing of Chapter 11 bankruptcy filings. Based on the results of today's meeting, Fisker could enter bankruptcy proceedings within the week as the failing automaker works to protect what few resources that they have left.

So the workers at a company that has no product, and is being propped up by taxpayer money, now want to sue because the company is going out of business? Sounds like the jobs bank wasn't just an anomaly in this crazy industry. Maybe the company's managers did know the law would apply, and they are purposely creating the scenario that would allow the workers to tap into that last $30 million as opposed to say, have it go back to the taxpayers? Or private investors. Or the state of Delaware which lost 7 figures of taxpayer dough keeping an empty factory warm last year.
Aaron Turpen wrote on 2013, April 9 - 19:34 Permalink
That's possible, John, but given history, the government will get first call on $ in a bankruptcy, not employees. They are always "top creditor" in a bankruptcy scenario. Plus this lawsuit will likely take weeks (or more), by which time Fisker will likely already be well into bankruptcy.

Dutch businesses were blindsided by ACTA
Treaty negotiated in secret is rejected
THE DRACONIAN Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA) is suffering from the fact that it was negotiated in secret.
Business in Holland have expressed dissatisfaction with the trade agreement, and half admitted that they had never heard of it before, suggesting that negotiation of the treaty that is supposed to protect 'intellectual property' involved insufficient opportunities for industry discussion.
The Dutch Chamber of Commerce has published the results of its study of business perceptions about the agreement. Where there are opinions, they are not in favour of it.
A 55 per cent majority of Dutch entrepreneurs said that they did not know what had "prompted ACTA", and only 40 per cent said that they had heard of it. Just five per cent of the small businesses that ACTA was supposedly written to protect know what it is.
The Dutch Chamber of Commerce is pondering whether to approve the agreement, a decision that other countries have wrestled with.
Of the entrepreneurs surveyed, 22 per cent said they thought that the Netherlands should not approve ACTA and should instead consider other methods such as technology for protecting their intellectual property.
Only 14 per cent of businesses in Holland surveyed support the agreement as it stands.
Dirk Poot, board member for the Pirate Party contacted us to point out a translation error in our story.
Where we have reported that some respondents would support technological measures in the fight against 'piracy', Poot said that the opposite was true.
"Dutch businesses did not mention technological measures as a way to enforce IP. Quite on the contrary, they lamented that IP-protection is outdated and that there is a need for an overhaul of the IP-system," he said.
"The only thing they would like to have protected are their trademarks." µ
