Box 84, N. Main Street, Otterbein, Indiana 47970
The 11th annual show of the Illiana Antique Power Association, Inc. was held on July 3, 4, and 5, 1992 at the Benton County Fairgrounds in Boswell, Indiana. What a SUCCESS it was. We featured Minneapolis-Moline agricultural equipment, and had a very nice representation of that line. The 1919 Universal owned by Keith Saylor was featured on our show plaque. We were certainly pleased to host 43 men who were on a Wade Farm Tour from Felix stowe, Suffolk, England. Rob Rushen-Smith was the operations manager for the group, and most members of the tour drove tractors in our parade. We also hosted an antique and modified tractor pull, and will do so again next year.
Attendees at the show were treated to a look at a McCormick reaper recently restored by club member Ed Foster. Undoubtedly it was the oldest piece on display. Other very interesting and busy displays were the steam trains exhibited by club members Mr. and Mrs. Jim Fain and Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Miller, and those of Bud Pressler and Larry Sturgeon, who shared the same track with the Fains and Millers. Kenny Edwards brought the show's first working braiding machine.
We learned a lesson from the show we'd like to share with other clubs. After several years of successful fund-raising raffles centered around restored antique tractors, we changed to a top prize of $1000 cash, and other smaller cash prizes. Not only was it difficult for most members to motivate themselves to sell the chances on the cash, but it was also tough to convince buyers to spend $ 1 to take a chance on winning $1000 when the same investment could win them millions in the state lottery. We are now convinced we need to deal in areas we know something about and feel comfortable in engines and tractors. A restored 1950 DC Case will be given away at 2 p.m. on July 4th Each year the club offers awards for excellence in displays of steam, trucks, cars, tractors and gas engines. These 'Carter Dalton Awards' were won this year by Jim Fain for a 1 scale Pacific locomotive, C. V. Cantwell for a Diamond T Reo pickup, Jim Burghardt with a Model A Roadster, Don Kingen for an MM UDLX, and Mrs. Mary Hill with her 5 HP Julien. Congratulations to the winners.
Our shift in show dates a few years ago from the week preceding Portland to the weekend closest to the Fourth of July continues to work quite favorably for us. In addition to offering less competition from other neighboring shows, it allows us to put on a large fireworks display for the holiday. This year will be no exception, as club member Garry Guthridge will shoot them on July 3rd. If you're interested in the hobby, have some time available and want to experience some genuine Hoosier hospitality, we offer a special invitation to you to attend our 12th annual show on July 2, 3 and 4, 1993. We'll feature Case agricultural equipment, and as usual, welcome equipment from other manufacturers.
A reminder video tapes of our 10th annual show in 1990 are available from RKS Video. They are significant because we were the organizing club for the first national Oliver Collectors' Show.

I'm normally not an optimistic person, but this picture is something that helps me look forward for something, at least once.
What I'd give to be able to pull this 1000Km run again with a sportscar.
I will have to say, even with this ~97 horsepower car, the experience was so much fun as it is.

Fast, Tasty Meals that Feature Spaghetti or Canned Tuna?
Q: Term is coming to an end, and pretty soon I'll be moving to Canada's arctic for summer field work. It's really exciting — until I open the pantry and see all the food has to be finished before my housing contract ends in April. I'm almost drowning in canned tuna and spaghetti noodles. Does anyone have any suggestions for fast, tasty meals that feature these ingredients?
Sent by Madelaine
Editor: Madelaine, the obvious thing to do is to eat them together! Cook the spaghetti until it is barely al dente. Then heat up a little oil in a big sauté pan. Toss in some slivered garlic and red pepper flakes, then toss in a can of drained tuna. Add the cooked pasta and toss together until heated. Spicy, protein-rich, and yummy!
Readers, what else would you suggest for Madelaine's stash?

Chili n Paneer rice…I mean Chili in Paneer!
Usually on Kanum Pongal day, we would prepare an array of rice dishes. I suppose the tradition started in the olden days to include more vegetables and fruits into the diet citing festivals as a reason. Aviyal is a good example where there are at least five vegetables in one dish. Sometimes the festival recipes feature the seasonal fruits, like nagapazham for Vinayaka chaturti or Sugarcane for Pongal, Multi-Vegetable Kootu for thiruvadirai etc.,
But this year, I wanted to do something different. Basically the reason was that I had some mushrooms I got last week that I needed to use fast, and broccoli was also in the same condition. I had made a special spicy paneer last week and I had to use that as well.
N is not too fond of mushrooms or zucchini or broccoli and I always have a tough time to make him eat those. But he loves chinese food and this is how I fooled him into eating veggies that he does not like, by making a chili Paneer Rice..Nope, not paneer in chili sauce but chili in panner. And a cheeky way to finish off the left over rice as well.. Interesting? Read on…
Ingredients: (Serves-2)
To Make Chili Paneer:
Milk- 2 cups (400 ml)
Yogurt- 2 tbsp
Sambal Oelek Paste- 1 tbsp
Finely Chopped Green Chilies- 2
For the rice:
Basmati rice-1 cup
Mixed vegetables like Carrot, Broccoli, Cauliflower,Peas,Mushrooms- 1 cup
Red onion- One small size
Finely Chopped Green Chili-1
Sunflower oil- 1 tbsp
Green onions- to garnish
Cilantro- to garnish
Salt- to taste
Sauces Needed:
Sambal oelek- 1 tsp
Sriracha hot sauce- 1 tsp
Schezwan sauce- 1 tsp
White Pepper powder- 1 pinch
Soy Sauce- 1 tbsp
To make the Chili Paneer:
Simmer the milk and when it is about to boil, add the yogurt and lemon juice and let the milk curdle. Simmer for another 3-4 minutes, switch off, add about 1/4 cup of ice cold water(to get more paneer). Add the chopped green chilies and sambal oelek. Hang the Paneer in a cheese cloth or through a strainer.
Drain the whey water from the paneer. Shape the paneer into cubes and shallow fry in oil. I made small lime size rounds out of chili paneer and shallow fried them in my appam pan. Once paneer is fried on both sides, drain the oil and keep the chili paneer aside.
This Paneer can be made ahead and stored in a refrigerator to use in any snacks, samosas or as a topping. Just have the store bought Paneer? Quickly grate it and mix it with the sauce and proceed like above.
For the rice:
Wash the rice well and cook it with 2 cups of water and salt to taste. Fluff it with a fork and keep aside. Fried rice usually tastes better with left over rice so use any left over rice if it is handy.
Heat Sunflower oil in a frying pan/Wok and add chopped red onions and all other veggies. Add salt and quickly stir fry till the veggies are 3/4th cooked. Add the Chili Paneer, the sauces(Sambal Oelek,Sriracha Hot Sauce,Soy Sauce), pepper powder and stir fry for another 2-3 minutes, mixing the ingredients well. Add the rice and quickly mix once.Check for salt and add more if needed.
Garnish with green onions and cilantro. Serve hot with a smile as though you don't know what veggies are hidden inside 😀
Don't want to use rice? Use some rice noodles/ wheat noodles instead. Still no? Just stir the Chili Paneer in veggies and use in as a wrap.
This version of Vegetables in Chili Paneer as a topping/filling for samosas, bhel puris, spread for pav bhaji/Wrap is one entry and the chili paneer fried rice is my second entry for Radhika's Healthy Fast Food Event, hosted along with Sudeshna of Cook like a Bong.
Speaking of Paneer, isn't it our desi answer for cheese? So why not munch the crunchy Paneer Kofta as a snack with a cup of tea?
Here they are, Paneer Koftas, as a Sunday Snack for Mirch Masala's Sunday Snack Cheese Event.
I am also reposting another entry Mirchi Ka Salan for Priya's Sesame Seeds Event.

I can still smell the smoke of the fireworks...I can see the thick smog shrouding the streets...I can hear the constant rumbling noise of the 'chocolate bombs'...I can taste the 'Dahi Vada' that Thamma made...a silent tear escapes my eye...nostalgia grips me by surprise and I have to make a quick escape to the rest-room...I don't want I&J to see me cry...specially when they were having so much fun making tiny paper lanterns for Diwali. And I am not sad...I am actually really happy with life... happy to see I&J growing... happy to make new memories with M...But a little part of me seems to often escape and wonder down the memory lane...knocking at various leaky doors...doors that open the flood gates of emotion...emotions that are hard to suppress and even harder to express!
|Paper Lantern made with I and J
Let me not get carried away by my thoughts this festive season...So heres wishing you and your loved ones a very Happy Diwali...May the festival of lights brighten up every day of your life...and May you always be able to build memories so strong that they have the power to brighten a dull moment for years to come!
PS: This is my favourite painting that somehow fits today's post perfectly!

Made Beautiful Blog
Recent Posts
Our Photoshoot!
Posted byon
We're really excited to share our experience with you! Thanks for reading our blog.
Hope to bring you insights and share our experience on what it's like to start a business and run it with its ups and downs. Being in the fashion and accessories industry, we know it's sometimes hard to merge inspiration with the business aspect.
Our label, Made Beautiful, encourages finding beauty in every day.
We love fashion, creative concepts and also spreading happiness.
For our first blog, we wanted to share what it was like doing our own photoshoot.
A few tips for photography in fashion and creating your own photoshoot:
Choosing a space
We were really lucky, because Jess worked at Mondo Studios so we were able to use the amazing space in Sydney.
There are many places you can use including outdoor areas like a garden or a park, or if you know someone who has a beautiful backyard or room. Otherwise you can buy a white sheet and shoot simply with natural lighting.
We appreciate the tips Etsy gave us!
Visualising your Brand
The main thing we wanted to show was our product and also what our Brand represents. Styling your process and displaying your sketches or giving a glimpse of your journey can show how how you started and can give weight to your designs.
Looking at what resources you have and retouching the photos afterwards can give you a professional look. If you don't think you'll use software much, you could always use a trial version and see whether it's worth using in the long run. We've used the Adobe Suite for our graphics.
Choosing your photographer
We understand Photographers can be expensive when you're starting your business, but if you know someone who has a creative eye this can be a great start. With cameras being very affordable now, having an SLR can come in very handy.
Good luck and remember to have fun!

How Much Salary A Start Up Offer ?, Why to Work for a Start-up?, Benefits Of Working at a Start Up
How Much Salary A Start Up Offer ?, Why to Work for a Start-up?, Benefits Of Working at a Start Up
What Startups May See As Deal Breakers
Ultimately, startup companies are still employers. They're looking for certain things from employees and may have pre-determined ideas or biases that make it harder to get hired for the job you want.
It's best to know about any potential objections in advance so that you can proactively address them in your resume and interview presentation.
1. Too Corporate – Many managers at startups have the perception that a "corporate type" won't be able to jump in and perform. This is sometimes unfair, but it's true that many corporate employees are used to more structure and more resources and struggle to adapt in a startup environment.
If you're a corporate type or an unproven new grad, you need to show that you will be willing and able to get hands-on and be resourceful.
2. Too Inexperienced – Depending on the position that you're interested in, lack of experience could be a huge stumbling block. While startups are known for seeing youth and energy as advantages, they still need to know you have the experience to do the job.
Think hard about how to position the experience that you do have to demonstrate your potential to do more.
You can also emphasize your drive and your passion for the product or service. The good news is that startups offer lots of opportunity to advance once you get a foot in the door.
3. Too Old – Can you be too experienced for a startup job? Unfortunately, age bias can be a real challenge at some companies.
In the world of startups, the focus is often on new and cutting-edge. Hiring managers can often overlook the value of a more seasoned perspective. They may worry about a more experienced hire being too set in their ways.
Another issue is money. Many startups don't have the budget to compete with established firms in hiring experienced candidates.
If you really want a shot at that startup job, it's up to you to show what you bring to the table and counter any objections (spoken or unspoken). If you do this well enough, you may gain the leverage to negotiate for a higher salary too.
Here are some ways to counter age bias at a startup:
• Show them your energy — The real issue (whether they know it or not) is not age. They want someone with the energy and willingness to step outside their comfort zone and continue to learn and grow. Demonstrate your drive and passion.
• Wow them with your tech prowess — You need to show you have the required technical expertise. It might be worthwhile to take some classes or seek out some mentoring so that you'll be able to talk the talk.
• Save money discussions for later — Make it clear that your priority is finding the right position and save the salary discussions for when you have more leverage. Don't count yourself out with premature compensation discussions. Make them love you and you'll have leverage for negotiating compensation and other benefits when the time comes.
What Startups are Looking For
Startups, in many cases, are looking for employees who can play different roles and contribute in multiple ways. You may be called upon to handle a wide range of issues from disgruntled customers to technical difficulties and problem-solving troubleshooting over Skype.
Some days, you may be called upon to do all these things before your second cup of coffee.
Here are some of the competency areas that most startups are looking for:
• Flexibility
• Adaptability
• Fast Learner
• Multitasker
• Great Communicator
• Self-starter
Be sure to prepare interview stories that demonstrate your fit in these areas, especially if you're coming from a more structured environment.
The startup world can certainly look appealing. Startup jobs typically offer dynamic work environments, more opportunities to contribute and gain new experience, better access to senior management, and even the chance to get in on the ground floor of something big.
Of course, startup jobs can also have drawbacks including less stability, more demanding work, dealing with mercurial founders, and the chance that your seemingly promising startup could flame out with little notice.
However, if you're the type who values excitement, the ability to step up and be a key part of the team, and the chance make something truly amazing happen, working for a startup might be the perfect fit.
Networking is the single most valuable tool you have at your disposal when it comes to securing a job with a startup. Most cities have active startup communities and regular events that make it easy to plug into the scene.
Networking helps you meet the right people and gives you an opportunity to learn about positions before they're even made public. This minimizes the pool of competition and allows you to cash in by literally being in the right place at the right time.
One easy first step is to use meetup.com to find and attend events for your local startup community. Make friends, make connections, and get to know what projects people are working on. Share your thoughts and expertise.
Look for LinkedIn groups that are related to startups in your area. Join the groups and the conversations going on in these groups. Reach out to your current LinkedIn contacts to see if they can make introductions to friends in the startup world.
Join Twitter and follow people who are dialed-into the startup community in your city. Learn, converse, and get to know the people behind the startups. Many influential founders and venture capitalists are very active on Twitter and share valuable advice and insights.
Sign up for a class or workshop on a startup-friendly topic. Look for organizations like General Assembly, which offers online and live (in NYC) events featuring cool speakers and expert instructors on topics like programming, digital marketing, and more.
There are also plenty of other places to find free or low-cost online training on related topics (Coursera, Treehouse, Code Academy, etc.) These online courses also offer opportunities to connect with others in the startup world.
What to Expect on a Startup Job Interview
Now that you know about where to find the jobs, it's time to get educated about the interview process and how startup interviews tend to differ from typical big-company job interviews.
Naturally, startup interview processes vary as much as the companies themselves vary. A lot depends on the startup's size, stage of development, culture, and industry.
In general, though, startup interviews tend to feel more conversational and less formal than corporate interviews. This is because of the focus on smaller teams, less hierarchy, and each individual wearing multiple hats. As a result, you'll find more of an emphasis on fitting in with the culture and being able to contribute and collaborate well.
You're still likely to get some of the standard questions. Your interviewers will want to know about your background, what you're good at, and what you're looking for in an opportunity.
Some of the common job interview questions that are particularly important to ace in a startup interview include:
Tell me about yourself — You'll need to grab them from the beginning with a strong answer to the get-to-know-you opening question.
Find A Start Up Job Find A Start Up Job Find A Start Up Job Find A Start Up Job Find A Start Up Job Find A Start Up Job Find A Start Up Job
Why do you want to work here? — This is critical, especially if you don't have a background working for startups. What interests you about this particular firm (make sure you do your research on the company and its business model and its competitors)? What makes you ready to work in a startup environment like this one (especially if coming from a bigger firm)? Motivation is a key factor in the startup interview because the hiring manager needs to know that you'll be committed to doing what it takes if hired.
Why should we hire you? — This is basically a variation on the "What are your strengths?" question. You have to know how to position yourself as an asset for this particular company and this particular role.
You will probably also get some unusual questions that reflect that particular startup's culture and personality.
Your interviewer wants to determine if you can do the job, of course. However, if you clear that first screening, they will also want to get to know you
They may ask you about your hobbies or what you did last weekend.
They're not just making polite chit-chat with these questions. They're trying to learn more about your personality, your values, and your drive — and maybe a bit about how you balance your professional and personal lives.
Another curve-ball that you might experience in a startup interview is criticism or confrontational questions. Startups move at a fast pace and the people who are building the company often lack the time or patience to handle things with kid gloves. It's important to know that you can take criticism and understand the value of it.
In terms of format, your startup interview may be less traditional than a standard interview, and may include a video interview or panel interview.
Sure, working for a startup is a bit risky. Many of today's hot startups may not even exist in 2 years. However, is it really any riskier than working for a corporation these days? With lay-offs and reorganizations, the days of working 25 years for your gold watch are over.
In fact, some studies indicate that startups are where the jobs are these days. The Kauffman Foundation, for instance, conducted an extensive study and discovered that in the U.S. economy, job growth only occurs through startup firms.

We'll start this visit on Marg's and Kaliana's Advent Blog Tour with a very special guest:
In the mood for a movie this Christmas? Let me recommend Kenneth Branagh's In the Bleak Midwinter (also known as A Midwinter's Tale), about a group of actors putting on a Christmastime production of Hamlet. It's a funny, sweet story. (It is rated "R," but the rating seems way overcautious to me--there's no violence or sex, and the language isn't saltier than some of what gets on television these days.)
Read "A Christmas Carol" for the umpteenth time? Try "The Haunted Man," one of Charles Dickens's lesser known Christmas stories, this year instead.
And for our feature presentation, "Christmas 1484 With Richard III," see the post below.

A lot of countries still use the death penalty as a method of punishment for committing heinous crimes. However, I am not sure that it should be used, even in extreme cases.
Many people consider capital punishment as barbaric and cruel, since it violates the universal human right to life. To begin with, killing people who murdered others so as to show that killing someone is unacceptable conveys the wrong message. Moreover, occasionally innocent people are condemned to executions; as a result, real criminals are free while innocent lives have been lost. Additionally people that are on death row have no chance of changing their attitude and regretting for their harmful actions in prison. Last but not least, criminals may be mentally ill, therefore they need psychological or psychiatric support to get over their problems.
However a lot of people argue that capital punishment should not be forbidden. Victims' relatives have suffered so much that they want to revenge the murderer by putting him to death. It will make them feel relieved, as they will not feel the menace of the killer and it will also ensure the safety for the re of the family. Furthermore, if a murderer ends up to prison, they will probably become more aggressive and violent, therefore they will come out on parole as hardened criminals and be a threat to the society. Finally the death penalty is a deterrent for criminals and prisoners as killing people, will mean losing their own life.
To sum up, the death penalty is lethal punishment which cannot bring back to life innocent people and victims of murderers. However plenty people support that it should not be forbidden as it will punish the criminals the way they deserve. Therefore, people need to comprehend that capital punishment does not help no one.

RoHS Law Amendment Published, Exempting Cadmium-based Quantum Dots for Use in Display Lighting Applications, but for Limited Period Only
On 31 October 2017, a new law which amends Directive 2011/65/EU, more commonly known as the "RoHS 2" Directive, was published in the EU's Official Journal. Hong Kong sellers of electrical and electronic goods will know that RoHS 2 restricts several hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment, including the substance cadmium.
The new Commission Delegated Directive 2017/1975 has been published so as to amend Annex III of the RoHS 2 Directive. Annex III sets out a list of exemptions to the general ban on the use of the hazardous substances. The amendment concerns an existing exemption for cadmium in colour converting light-emitting diodes (LEDs) for use in display systems.
The newly published Directive states that Point 39 of Annex III to the RoHS 2 Directive exempted the use of cadmium in colour converting LEDs for illumination and display applications, from the general ban, until 1 July 2014. The Commission received an application for renewal of this exemption before 1 January 2013.
Article 5 of RoHS 2 permits the Commission to introduce or renew exemptions under certain conditions, including where the reliability of the restricted substances' substitutes is not ensured, or where the total negative impacts on environment, health and safety caused by substitution are likely to outweigh the total environmental, health and safety benefits from any such substitution.
The new Directive points out that colour converting LEDs using quantum dots have been shown to be advantageous as compared to earlier technology regarding energy efficiency and colour performance. The overall balance of the use of cadmium-based quantum dots in displays has a positive impact due to their lower energy consumption as compared to currently available alternative technologies. The total negative environmental, health and consumer safety impacts caused by substitution of cadmium-based quantum dots in display applications where quantum dots are used are likely to outweigh the total environmental, health and consumer safety benefits thereof.
It is thus stipulated that the use of cadmium selenide in downshifting cadmium-based semiconductor nanocrystal quantum dots for use in display lighting applications should be exempted from the prohibition. This exemption should last for two years after the publication of the Delegated Directive in the Official Journal. It is felt that this short validity period for the exemption is unlikely to have adverse impacts on innovation and the development of cadmium-free alternatives.
Hong Kong manufacturers should take note that, in comparison with the currently applicable exemption, the new exemption is more restrictive: a much lower threshold value is allowed, only the use of cadmium selenide (the inorganic compound actually used in the application concerned) is exempted and the applications are more precisely defined.
The new Directive also points out that cadmium-based quantum dot LEDs for illumination are not yet available on the market and their potential advantages in comparison with existing technologies are not properly quantifiable. Therefore, a renewal of the exemption as regards illumination applications is not justified. With regard to this particular matter, Hong Kong's electronics sellers may recall that, in September last year, an objection from the European Parliament to an exemption for cadmium use in illumination and display lighting applications under RoHS 2 was published in the EU's Official Journal. Common examples of such display lighting and illumination applications are LCD screens, which are used in televisions or desktop computers.
The Commission had received two applications from economic operators requesting an extension of this cadmium exemption under RoHS 2. Hong Kong business operators selling electronic equipment may already know that once an exemption is granted for a particular application under RoHS 2, it applies across the board to all producers, and not just to those that requested it. Hence, the importance of granting the exemption cannot be underestimated.
Following the applications, the Commission presented a draft Directive in 2015. The draft Directive divided the cadmium exemption into two parts, allowing (a) cadmium use in solid state illumination, which it proposed to extend until 30 June 2017 in order to ensure legal certainty for the illumination sector, and (b) the use of cadmium in downshifting cadmium-based semiconductor nanocrystal quantum dots for use in display lighting applications, which it proposed to extend until 30 June 2018.
The draft delegated Directive was then sent to the EU Council of Ministers and the European Parliament, which have the power to object to such legislation. Although the Council accepted the draft Directive, the Parliament decided to object based on changes in market conditions, especially those relating to cadmium-free products becoming available during 2015.
The Parliament took into account the fact that the Commission had explicitly stated that quantum dot (cadmium and cadmium-free) LEDs for lighting were not available yet and admitted that therefore the positive environmental impact of the exemption could not be demonstrated. It therefore explicitly recommended that the exemption should not be renewed. The Commission's final position has been influenced by the European Parliament's recommendation, and new Commission Delegated Directive 2017/1975, published on 31 October 2017, is the outcome.
In short, in Annex III to the RoHS 2 Directive, point 39 is replaced with the following text, thus allowing only the exemption mentioned in the text for this particular application:
Commission Delegated Directive 2017/1975 will enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal. Member States are required to adopt and publish, by 12 months from the date of entry into force of the Directive at the latest, their national legal provisions complying with the Directive. They have to apply those provisions from 12 months after the date of entry into force of the Directive, plus 1 day.

Internally Displaced People from Tirah Valley are in Need of Help
The heavy clashes between the rival armed groups and subsequent military operation against the militants have resulted in a huge displacement of thousands of families from Tirah Valley of Khyber Agency in Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA). According to UNHCR, as of May 1, 2013, 11,404 families have been displaced and registered, while officials estimate that it will reach to 20,000 families in coming days and will remain in displacement for up to six months due to on-going military operation and uncertainty as well instability in the area
|No. of Families
|Children -18
|Grand Total
The displaced people have sought refuge in Kohat, Hangu and Kurram Agency and almost 91% of them are living in off-camp settlements with host community. These IDP families travelled on foot from Tirah to Orakzai Agency (journeys which took between 8 hours and 2 days) as there was no transportation available. With no roads to follow, families were forced to walk across mountainous terrain, often barefoot, and in the rain which resulted in a large number of individuals, particularly children, elderly and women, becoming sick and injured along the way.
Last year, a significant number of IDPs all came down to Peshawar, but due to mounting security crisis in the Peshawar, the government directed all the IDPs to move south towards Kohat and Khuram Agency. Authorities have stopped all humanitarian actors from responding to the Tirah Valley IDP's in Peshawar. This is a big protection concern for the humanitarian actors. Advocacy with authorities are ongoing to permit assistance to the vulnerable IDP population in Peshawar as some of them might not be able to move to Kohat or Khuram agency. The option of mobile registration in Peshawar is under consideration but no final decision has been made on this by the authorities as yet.
From the recent influx of IDPs, majority of the IDPs initially moved to Kurram Agency and around 500 IDP families in Kohat as of third week of April.
However, April 27, 2013 a new registration point at Jerma in Kohat District was established which attracted majority of the IDPs to take shelter in Kohat District. The number of registered families in Kohat after one day was 626 while on May 1, it stood at 3,489 families, due to which the number of registered IDPs from Tirah Valley has exponentially gone up and has increased by 36% of the total IDPs in a time span of only one week. There are reports that numbers of IDPs do not have their CNICs which is a main source for verification and registration and there are number of people who have their CNICs but do not have the correct address of Tirah Valley. This means they will not be registered under the current registration criteria. Hence, these people will be left without any assistance.
The registration points will be closed in Kohat between May 6 and 13 due to upcoming election in Pakistan. Once the registration is resumed from May 13, the number of registered IDPs is expected to increase.
At the moment, UNHCR is registering the IDPs through Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC), WFP is providing food, UNHCR is providing NFIs and Tents in New durrani camp through CERD.
As families had left their homes in a hurry, they had no provisions with them for shelter, medication, water or food, and had to sleep in the open-air. Therefore, urgent assistance is required for all IDP families with all types of assistance being prioritized (food, temporary shelter, NFIs, healthcare, cash assistance, water).
CWS-P/A Response:
CWS-P/A is planning to conduct a Rapid Need Assessment to get more information on the situation and the identified gaps to plan for the emergency response for IDPs recently displaced from Tirah Valley, Khyber Agency.

Florida Push to Make Safety Alarms in Day-Care Vehicles Mandatory
ATWEC Technologies' Kiddie Voice™ Patented Alarm System Protects Children
Jan 31, 2013, 08:30 ET
MEMPHIS, Tenn., Jan. 31, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- ATWEC Technologies, Inc. (OTC Markets: ATWT), a leader in the child safety industry, today announced that a Florida state representative is renewing efforts to make it mandatory for child care centers statewide who transport children to install safety alarms in their vehicles, after legislators failed to pass a similar bill two years in a row.
Rep. Lori Berman, D-Lantana, filed House Bill 111 in Tallahassee last week. Known as the "Haile Brockington Act", in honor of the Delray Beach toddler who died in 2010 after she was forgotten for nearly six hours in the back of a hot day-care van, the bill would require child care facilities to install alarm systems that alert drivers to check the vehicle for children left behind.
"We should not have to wait until innocent children die to realize the urgency; these deaths are preventable," Berman said in a statement. "I continue, as I have the past two years, to implore my colleagues in the legislature to pass this bill. Their inaction has continued to raise the risk that more children may die due to being left behind."
Thirty-one children in the US died in 2012 after being left in cars, three of them in Florida, according to records from San Francisco State University's Department of Geosciences.
If passed, HB 111 takes effect July 1, 2013 and requires day-care center vehicles to be equipped with an alarm system approved by the state Department of Children and Families by January 2014. In addition, DCF must maintain a list of approved alarm manufacturers and systems, which ATWEC Technologies, Inc. is included.
Since Haile's death in August 2010, Berman and state Senator Maria Sachs, D-Delray Beach, have tried unsuccessfully to pass bills making child care van alarms a state law.
Palm Beach County commissioners in 2011 became the first in the state to require alarms in vehicles designed to carry six or more children.
If a center is in violation, the owner will receive a notice and have a 7-10 day period to correct the issue. If the center does not comply, or if there is a combination of issues, it can be told to cease transporting children, said Tim O'Connor, spokesman for the Palm Beach County Health Department, which regulates child care facilities.
The law took effect in January 2012, and of all the facilities that requested license renewals for 2013, only two were not in compliance during an inspection, O'Connor said. The facilities have since installed van alarms. O'Connor added that if the state passes a mandate, the county would likely adopt a regulation that is most stringent.
Shareholders and other investors can find information on the proposed Florida legislation posted on the Company's website home page, www.atwec.com.

I witnessed what has been called the nearest approach of an asteroid ever observed. It is now known as "the Great Daylight Fireball of 1972," and the details of its flight across the sky are well documented. On that warm summer day I was walking with another cowboy from the bunkhouse toward the employee's dining room at the main ranchhouse, where lunch awaited us. The path we were taking—south and slightly westward—caused us to be facing the object as it came into view. Just to give some perspective—our line of view was across Jackson Hole, with the Grand Tetons lying off to the west (our right). One report estimated the object's "entry mass" at 4,000 metric tons, and its diameter at about 20 meters. For us, it was mostly approaching, though at an angle to us. We could see the face of the rock. It did not look like something real. It looked instead like a bad display of special effects, like something out of an old Flash Gordon movie. Flames were erupting across the face of the rock, stripping away, re-erupting.
We guessed at the time that it went down in the Teton Wilderness that was to our backs— we knew there was more than a hundred square miles of it. Then later we heard the thing was sighted over Montana. But the most amazing part is that the bolide never touched earth at all. Apparently it entered the atmosphere and exited back into space somewhere over Canada, continuing on its way through the void. Until recent years I have disbelieved the reports that the object passed over Utah, not Wyoming, and that it was roughly 35 miles or more above the surface of the earth. It seemed to my companion and I that it was low – hardly higher than a jetliner would fly – and that it was within cloud level. As I said, we thought it would have struck the earth north of us, somewhere well short of Montana. And at the time we had to look at it for some seconds to be sure that it was not a plane on fire. So, obviously, we did not think it was an object passing over a neighboring state. Also, in one of the videos that can be viewed on YouTube, the meteor seems to be piercing a cloud that hangs just above Jackson Hole. It seems to shred a part of the cloud as it "exits" it.
I grew up around Air Force bases and I've heard sonic booms many times. But nothing as deep and as resounding as this one. In an instant the fish ran back under the bridge. He was permanently spooked. I'd never see him again. The great hunk of rock, glowing and hissing and trailing smoke, passed directly over my head, from south to north, and sailed out of sight behind Mount Jumbo. Gaping at the place where it had gone I wondered: What just happened here? Am I hallucinating? Was this an illusion, some kicking-in of a random bit of mescaline or '___' that had lodged in a remote back alley of my brain? But as I would learn, the thing I had seen was real. Thousands of people from Utah to Canada had witnessed what would be called The Great Daylight Fireball of 1972. There were hundreds of pictures taken of the thing, and a pair of home movies, and it was tracked using infrared sensors aboard an Air Force satellite. Scientists inferring from the temperature of the ball and its 900-mile trajectory from Utah to Alberta calculated that it passed over Montana at an altitude of less than 35 miles, was between ten and thirty feet in diameter, and weighed at least 4,000 tons, big enough to obliterate a Denver-sized city with a force equal to Little Boy and Fat Man, the uranium and plutonium bombs that destroyed Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Because no trace of the beast has ever been found, and because no sonic booms were heard as it sailed across Canada, astrophysicists now believe its low angle of descent allowed it to skip off the earth's atmosphere like a flat stone on a still lake. One scientist predicted that the fireball would return in 1997, but no one saw it. In 1972 the earth dodged a bullet. My fish dodged a bullet. And I dodged two bullets. From then on just standing by a stream would always seem a little bit like winning a prize.

This fireball was quite impressive and it makes you wonder when to expect our next visit from an 'Earth-grazer.' Somewhere out in the dark depths of space lurks that next meteor, asteroid or comet with our name on it.
What was unusual about it (as if earth-grazing fireballs aren't unusual enough!) is that it may have been temporarily captured by Earth;s gravity (ie. in orbit around Earth), which is something that is not often observed, and has never been captured on camera before.

One thing to note about this fireball was how slow it was moving for a meteor. Average speeds of meteors are 10 to 70 km per second while this one moved about 14 km per second. Pretty slow for a meteor. If you watch that short video you can see witnesses were able to watch it move slowly across the sky. Another interesting part of the video is that at first, many witnesses thought it was at cloud level, as you can see early in vid it appears to come exiting out of the cloud.

I doubt your 'facts'
Maybe you should check out This for speed of meteors
It seems earth approaching objects don't read your posts.edit on 30-12-2012 by cody599 because: (no reason given)
Depends on its direction. Meteors entering our atmosphere from the east are moving faster than ones entering from the west (since the Earth is rotating towards the east, a meteor entering from that direction has the Earth's rotational speed added to its own motion). The slowest meteor shower is the June Bootids, where they average around 14 km/sec. The fastest meteor shower is Leonids, with an average speed of about 70 km/sec.
The average velocity of meteoroids entering our atmosphere is 10-70 km/second. The smaller ones that survive the trip to the Earth's surface are quickly slowed by atmospheric friction to speeds of a few hundred kilometers per hour, and so hit the Earth with no more speed than if they had been dropped from a tall building. For meteorites larger than a few hundred tons (which fortunately are quite rare), atmospheric friction has little effect on the velocity and they hit the Earth with the enormous speeds characteristic of their entry into our atmosphere. Thus, for example, it is estimated that the meteorite that produced the Barringer Crater was still travelling at 11 km/second when it struck what is now the Arizona desert 49,000 years ago. Such objects do enormous damage, because the kinetic energy carried by the meteorite is the product of the mass and the square of the velocity. There is no documented record of a human being killed by a meteorite, but in recent years meteorites have crashed into bedrooms in Alabama, dining rooms in Connecticut, and a car in New York
An asteroid has an average orbital speed (how fast an object orbits the sun) of 25 kilometers per second. However, asteroids orbiting closer to a sun will move faster than asteroids orbiting between Mars and Jupiter and beyond. The closest orbiting asteroid found so far is 2004 JG6 with an approximate orbital velocity of over 30 kilometers per second. It was discovered at the Lowell observatory on May 10, 2004.
The annual Quadrantid meteor shower is expected to produce its greatest number of meteors in the wee hours before dawn tomorrow: Thursday, January 3. Before dawn on January 4 might also be a possibility – especially for far eastern Asia. This year, 2013, the waning gibbous moon will be in the sky during the peak hours for watching meteors. But you might see some of the brighter meteors, even in moonlight. The Quadrantid meteor shower is capable of matching the meteor rates of the better known August Perseid and December Geminid showers. It has been known to produce up to 50-100 or more meteors per hour in a dark sky. This shower favors the Northern Hemisphere. That's because its radiant point – the point in the sky from which the meteors appear to radiate – is far to the north on the sky's dome.
You need a dark, open sky, and you need to look in a general north-northeast direction for an hour or so before dawn. That's the Quadrantid meteor shower – before dawn January 3, 2013 – for the world's northerly latitudes. If you're in Asia, you might try between midnight and dawn on January 4 as well. Who knows? Some of the Quadrantids meteors might be bright enough to dazzle you, even in bright moonlight.

Forgive me if I trust a well credited global website against 1 quote from you.
Being a fan of winter meteor showers requires a lot of hope and patience. There are plenty of opportunities to be wowed by the celestial displays, but there also are plenty of clouds. However, if the weather cooperates, the Quadrantid meteor shower will reach its peak Thursday night and Friday morning. Considered an above-average shower, the Quadrantids can have up to 40 meteors per hour at its peak. Even though the shower peaks later in the week, meteors can be visible from Tuesday through Saturday. Also effecting the viewing, a near-last-quarter moon will hide many of the fainter meteors with its glare. The best viewing will be at a dark location after midnight. Look for meteors radiating from the constellation Bootes. Read more here: www.thenewstribune.com...=cpy

Yesterday evening was the annual holiday book Yankee swap/white elephant for the Junior League of Washington's Community Affairs Council (formerly known as the Literacy Council), which oversees my committee. I look forward to this event every year as so many women get super excited about books and it's a great chance to find new books to add to my to-read list.
This year I wasn't quite up for digging through the basement to find the perfect wrapping paper and coordinating ribbon. I decided to borrow a work Secret Santa tradition by using newspaper as wrapping paper and then searched on Pinterest for easy options for adornment. And I think I really knocked it out of the ballpark!
The book on top was wrapped in a gorgeous full-page Hermes newspaper ad of a Christmas tree made of their neckties found on the back page of the WSJ's front section and the second book was wrapped in the front page article of another section of a different WSJ.
For the bows, I followed this tutorial I found on Pinterest and used two ads found in an abandoned trade magazine in the office.
I showed the picture above to a couple of people in my office today and one thought it was a fantastic idea for her very granola, very green son-in-law who turns his nose up at anything not recycled.
Not bad for last minute wrapping!

Patients' ability to use private cover in public hospitals must not be curtailed
The AMA is advising the Federal Government to reject any policy proposals that limit patients' ability to use their private health insurance for treatment in a public hospital, warning that such a move would restrict patient choice and further disadvantage public hospitals.
In its submission to the Government's paper, Options to reduce pressure on private health insurance premiums by addressing the growth in private patients in public hospitals, the AMA strongly rejects all of the options proposed.
AMA President Dr Michael Gannon said the options would have a negative impact on the health system and should be dismissed out of hand.
"The options raised in this paper would simply reduce the level of funding available to public hospitals in favour of private health insurers, and significantly reduce the health care choices available to privately insured patients," Dr Gannon said.
"Patient choice is a fundamental feature of our health system, which includes the option for patients to use their private health insurance in a public hospital.
"There are very good reasons why a patient may choose to use their private health insurance for treatment in a public hospital.
"In regional and rural areas, there may be no other option available due to the lack of private sector services.
"Public hospitals are also equipped to handle the most complex of cases and, in many cases, may represent the most appropriate clinical setting for treatment.
"It may also be the most cost effective option for a patient, particularly in light of the growing number of private health insurance policies with exclusionary features or excesses and co-payments.
"A patient may also wish to be able choose to be treated by a doctor who they have previously seen or know.
"There are also significant benefits that flow to public hospitals.
"In a constrained funding environment, the supplementary revenue generated from private patients makes an important contribution towards the recruitment and retention of medical practitioners, improved staffing, teaching, training, and research, and the purchase of modern new equipment.
"All these resources support and enhance the delivery of high quality care to public and private patients alike."
Dr Gannon said the private health insurance lobby was guilty of blatant hypocrisy.
"On the one hand, the industry is offering and promoting public hospital-only private insurance policies, but at the same time objecting to more and more of their members opting to use their insurance in a public hospital," he said.
"Insurers and governments only have themselves to blame for patients increasingly choosing to be treated as a private patient in a public hospital.
"The private health insurers offer a bewildering array of products, with varying levels of cover and many exclusions, which often leave patients confused and shocked when they find out that common medical procedures are not covered by their expensive insurance policy.
"This is compounded by the stagnation of the indexation of the Commonwealth Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS) and medical fee schedules offered by the private health insurers.
"On top of this, public hospital funding has failed to keep up with community demand for services, with the Commonwealth and the States and Territories guilty of under-delivering in this area for many years.
"If the Government and the private health insurers want to see fewer patients opt to use their private health insurance in a public hospital, we will need to see significantly improved long-term funding for public hospitals, private health insurance policies that meet the common medical needs of consumers, and clear articulation of the different levels of coverage so that they are easily understood by consumers.
"If there is evidence of cost shifting, or concerns that private patients are jumping the queue in public hospitals, this needs to be addressed through stronger provisions and improved compliance arrangements in future COAG Hospital Funding Agreements.
"The development of a durable solution to this issue needs to be proportionate, and considered in the context of broader private health insurance reforms and future public hospital funding arrangements.
"This will require extensive consultation, including with the States and Territories which, in relation to private patients in public hospitals, appear to have had very limited input to date."

Perhaps if these judges did their research and weren't bank friendly, they would have seen exactly what Judge Schack learned.
New York Law Journal-
A Brooklyn appellate court has once again upset a ruling by a trial court judge, saying he "flagrantly ignore[d]" precedent.
In Deutsche Bank National Trust Company v Islar, 2013-06996, the Appellate Division, Second Department, on Wednesday reversed Brooklyn Supreme Court Justice Arthur Schack (See Profile) and ordered the case to be reassigned to a new judge.
Schack had denied a summary judgment motion from the lender, Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, on grounds that the plaintiff had not demonstrated its standing to foreclose on the mortgage.

It's been raining and it's cold and blustery, so I needed something warm and snuggly. But after feeling so cranky yesterday, I wanted something that made me feel strong and kind of hot.
The dress was simple, a short black sweater dress and I'm in all black and white but the accessories are unique so they stood out.
1-7-08 by Princess Poochie
I wore my Paraphernalia Poochie necklace and at least four people asked me where they could get pieces for themselves. Can you blame them? I adore Paraphernalia!
When I was in Asheville I found a new lingerie store and bought two cool pairs of stockings. One pair were baby blue fishnets and the other were these fleur de lis lace stockings.
I wanted to wear the lace stockings to add some additional pattern as well as great a more feminine counterpoint to my kick-ass Ann Demeulemeester boots. I love these boots way too much.
I don't think I've ever had a pair of shoes that make me feel as powerful and cool as these do.
They are once in a lifetime type shoes so I'm glad I have them. I took a ton of photos of them too.
On IFB forums there was a discussion today about how people go ga-ga over simple outfits and fierce heels but I think these flat boots are making me more excited than heels are right now.

|Dahi bhalla
Dahi Bhalla is a Chaat delicacy, found all over India in one form or another and in some regions it is also known as Dahi Vada. The plating of Dahi Bhalla varies in different parts of India. Bhalla or Vada is a fried dumpling prepared with Black gram / Urad Dal, which is soaked in water for some time and then blended into a thick smooth paste. The Bhalla is then soaked in water in-order to get tenderness and this also remove excess oil in it; then dropped it in a bowlfull of curd or yogurt. Just to give this delicacy a hint of garnishing; green chutney and tamarind chutney is poured over it, and other spices also sprinkled over for that extra yummy mouthful chaat flavor.

We often talk about the "true meaning of Christmas" and "remembering the reason for the season" this time of year. The New Testament's telling of Jesus' birth is known as "The Christmas Story." While Santa and commercialism and the consumer drive have tried to take over the holiday, most people still know what Christmas is "really about." We celebrate Christmas every year to celebrate that Jesus Christ was born. But I would like to argue that Christmas isn't important because He was born; Christmas is important because of everything He did afterwards.
Think about it. All of us were born. How many of you have a worldwide celebration in your honor every year?
How many people born in the history of the world have a WORLDwide celebration in their honor?
Some of the greatest people to have ever lived don't have a holiday honoring them. I've never heard of a Mother Theresa day, though she seems pretty deserving. Even those with a national holiday (here in the United States) such as Martin Luther King Jr. aren't honored throughout the entire world. My point here is that it isn't the fact that Jesus was born that we are really celebrating.
We are celebrating the fact that Jesus – the Man who healed and helped, who loved and forgave, who walked on water, who set a perfect example, who died and lived for us, the very Light of the World – was born. If He hadn't done all of that, even if He had done some, I believe December would be a very different month.
We talk so much about His birth this time of year. Let us also remember His life, His death, His resurrection, and His love. Celebrate the Man that came from the birth, not the birth itself.
Remember what Christmas is really about: The Savior of the World.

"This song more or less is
The way one expresses
The spirit that blesses
Our Jesus today."
The Reverend Bates Burt wrote those words for "Let Christmas Be Merry," a carol he composed for Christmas 1933. For the 2009 holiday, Burt's great-granddaughter, Abbie Burt Betinis, is still writing songs that express "the spirit that blesses" at Christmas.
Betinis carries on a family tradition begun in 1922 by her great-grandfather Bates Burt, and continued by Betinis's great-uncle, Alfred Burt. Some of Alfred Burt's carols, such as "Caroling, Caroling" and "The Star Carol" have become a part of the standard Christmas repertoire.
Now, for the ninth straight year, Abbie Betinis brought her friends to Classical Minnesota Public Radio to sing the world premiere of her latest carol, "Be Like the Bird":
"Be like the bird that,
Pausing in her flight
awhile on boughs too slight,
feels them give way beneath her,
and sings, and sings, and sings
knowing she hath wings."
-Victor Hugo
They also perform past carols by Bates and Alfred Burt.
This year's "MPR Carolers" include singers Carrie Henneman Shaw, Melissa Morey, Kim Sueoka, Kathy Lee, Justin Karch, and Ben Henry-Moreland.

TRUMBULL, Conn. — Trumbull resident Maddy Rondon doesn't just talk the talk when it comes to raising money and awareness for epilepsy; the 12-year-old quite literally walks the walk.
Rondon and her team took part in the Sharon's Ride/Run/Walk in West Haven on May 13 and managed to raise over $3,500.
Rondon has been battling the disease since she was 9. Her fight includes having to take regular medication, fighting seizures and sometimes memory loss.
Epilepsy is a disease that thousands throughout Connecticut suffer from, but questions linger about the disease with the people that suffer from it and in the medical field.
This year was the third year that Rondon and her team participated in the walk. She hopes her fundraising efforts will help answer some of those questions.

CTF Red Team Start
From SRB2 Wiki
Thing type 34, CTF Red Team Start, is a type of Thing which acts as the spawn point for players on the red team in Capture the Flag mode. When a player on the red team enters the game or respawns after dying, one of the red team starts is randomly chosen for the player to spawn. There can be a maximum of 32 red team starts in the map; any more than this will be ignored.
If the Ambush flag is checked, the player will spawn from the ceiling. If Ambush is combined with the Flip flag, the player will spawn on the floor but with flipped gravity.

Need Jesus?
God loves you and seeks a personal relationship with you!
"Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me." Revelation 3:20
We have all been born into this world spiritually dead because of sin – We are born sinners!
"For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." Romans 6:23
Jesus will forgive us of all sin, assuring us of eternity in Heaven!
"If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." 1 John 1:9
Let go, pray this prayer and let Him take over. "Lord Jesus, I'm a sinner. Please come into my life and forgive me of all sin. I believe You died for my sins and rose from the dead. Now, fill me with Your Holy Spirit and guide me from this day forward. Thank You, Jesus! Amen."
If you just prayed this prayer, we celebrate with you and so do all the angels in Heaven. Luke 15:10
Here are a few steps that will help you grow in your new found faith:
Praying is not a religious formula or tradition; it's simply talking to God as you would your best friend. He's concerned about the smallest or greatest detail in your life and wants you to get to know Him. If you would like someone to pray with you, click here.
Read the Bible every day
It's vitally important to read God's Word (the Bible) on a regular basis. If you don't have a Bible, we would be glad to provide you with one free of charge.
Get involved in a local church
It's essential that believers develop a healthy and vibrant life in Christ and His Church. All of us need assistance to navigate the stresses and pressures of life. God never intended us to do it alone. He's provided everything we need to be victorious — including His Word, His power, His Spirit, and His family. That's why being part of a local congregation is important. We invite you to attend Glad Tidings or a Bible-believing church near you.
