A cold front is on it's way. We hope for frigid air in the morning to turn our 80 degree weather into winter. But Texans celebrate Christmas in all kinds of weather.
We light our Advent wreath each night, share a thought and a verse and are keeping it simple this year, trying to make it about Jesus.
I took my little one to sit on Santa's lap, a favorite tradition. I have 12 years of pictures of my kids with jolly old St. Nick and I love setting the frames out each year to see how much my kids have grown.
My big kids couldn't resist this year and when Santa asked my son what Christmas was really about, my 10 year old boy answered confidently JESUS. It made this momma proud.
But then when I heard Santa respond, "you better believe it! If it weren't for the gift of Jesus, Santa wouldn't be." I smiled wide and thanked God for good men who help spread the good news.
My vintage Santa nesting dolls were a garage sale find from years ago:
Kenya Christmas corner:
I hope it's starting to feel like Christmas in your house, wherever that may be.
Tell me where you live in the comments and your favorite Christmas tradition.
Linking up here and to The Nester's!

Graduates celebrate Higher Education achievements
22 Oct 2018
The achievements of more than 400 students who have achieved degrees and other Higher Education qualifications with City College Norwich were celebrated at Norwich Cathedral on Saturday 20th October.
Behind the graduates' smiling faces in the historic surroundings of the Cathedral was a multitude of stories testifying to the huge, even life-changing, impact of their Higher Education (HE) achievements.
Among the graduates was Lilian Taylor, from Hingham, who received a BA (hons) degree in English at the age of 71. An inspirational example of lifelong learning, Ms Taylor was also be presented with the college's HE Student of the Year award.
Others receiving HE awards included civil and mechanical engineers, early years practitioners and play workers, healthcare assistants, social care staff, trainee social workers, accountants, managers in hospitality, tourism and events, those working in the sports and leisure industry, public services, and education.
This spread reflects the college's distinctive HE offer, which is substantially focused on work-related qualifications that have been developed in conjunction with employers. The national Destinations of Leavers from Higher Education Survey shows that only 1% of the college's HE students are unemployed after graduating, compared to a national average of 5% for all HE students.
City College Norwich is continually developing its degrees and professional qualifications in line with changing employer and industry needs. Last year the college launched a new Chartered Manager Degree Apprenticeship and a Level 5 CMI Departmental/Operational Manager qualification. More recently, City College Norwich helped launched a new Nursing Associate programme, in conjunction with UEA – and a new Primary Teaching Apprenticeship is due to commence next September.
The college's graduation celebration has a strong local flavour, with 98% of Saturday's graduating students coming from Norfolk or Suffolk.
The majority of graduates received degrees, diplomas and certificates that are awarded by the College's Higher Education partner, UEA. Other graduates were presented with Higher National Certificates (HNCs) or Diplomas (HNDs), teacher training qualifications, or qualifications from other awarding organisations.
These awards were presented by former Chief Executive of the TEN Group, Dick Palmer, in the morning, and by Tricia Fuller, HR Director, Norse Group, in the afternoon. Mr Palmer and Ms Fuller were also presented with an Honorary Doctorate awarded by UEA.
Corrienne Peasgood, Principal, City College Norwich, commented:
"Congratulations to all of our graduates who have worked so hard to succeed on a wide range of Higher Education and professional courses.
"Degree-level study is a major undertaking at any stage of your educational journey or career, even more so for those with family and other commitments. The inspirational example of our Student of the Year, Lilian Taylor, shows that you are never to old to learn.
"As well as celebrating our graduates' hard work and determination, Graduation is an opportunity for us to recognise the fantastic support of our expert teaching staff, employer partners, and friends and family of all our new graduates."

Animes You Think That Need Better Voice Actors
Pretty Simple Question Asked
What Anime Do You Think Needs To Have Voice Actors
It Can Also Just Be Like One Person In Anime That You Want To Change, Doesnt Have To Be Everyone In The Anime
Please Respect Other People's Opinion As Always, Thank You In Advance :)
I Dont Have Many Animes I Would Think That Needs A Voice Actors Change
But Only One I Got In My Head Is Chaos;head (Dub Vers)
I Just Cant Stand he American Voice Actors In This Anime For Some Odd Reason
I Do Like The Non Dub Vers Though
Kodocha (dubs)
Ugh I hate this.
Harem male protagonists. So many of them needs a stronger voice.
edit: VVV
I would like to see one harem where the guy does the thing that we all would think he doesn't
example: girl A does a sexual advance "standard harem male lead" does omg what pulls away. See what he should do is advance back and make the girl uncomfortable. In which I'll be like yes finally!!!
So, how does this play out with voice acting, well the voices for male leads tend to be timid in such a way, when situations arises when the "mood" is being developed there is no shred of confidence none...
His Holiness Optimus Maximus Decimus Meridius Colossus Nemesis Nexus Genesis
i agree lol i hate how most harems have a weak foundation of character
Mostly unpopular anime doesn't get the attention with the voice actors. Examples of Anime who has good English dubs in my opinion are.
- Black Lagoon
- Death Note
I avoid dubs now.
I originally tried to watch elfen lied in dub and hated it, but as soon as I switched to sub I loved it.
So yeah I think Elfen Lied deserved a better dub.
For subbed:
Polar Bear Cafe (Panda's VA is annoying)
For dub:
One Piece (Luffy's VA)
FLCL (Mamimi and Haruko's VAs are annoying)
Ouran High(OP is HORRIBLE and so is Haruhi's)
I would honestly say Infinite Stratos. If you've seen the dub it is -hilarious-. However it does really sound bad if you think about it.
Elfen Lied is definitely one where I watched the whole thing subbed then tried to watch the dub and I was like "How could they fuck it up that bad?"
ef: a tales of memories actually got dubbed and it's really bad. In my opinion they should've left it only.
Other than that I can honestly say when it comes to the newer dubs like Steins;Gate 9 times out of 10 they tend to do a good job. Hell High School of the Dead was nothing but zombies with tits and their dub sounds good.
There was only one English dub that I found absolutely unforgivable. This was the Sonic The Hedgehog Anime OVA/Movie.
As a whole I find dubs to be acceptable though.

Re: Who is STILL pregnant!?
Still here.. it's looking like I'll likely have a January baby, ah well... worse things have happened . I'd rather he wait until our family doctor is here to deliver him, and she's gone until the 28th anyway. *Sigh*... just so tired of being pregnant!
Registered Users
Re: Who is STILL pregnant!?
Still PG here. If the dr would have had their way, I would either still be in the hospital or taken the baby home with me in arms. But, alas, they were being very reasonable. I don't think the nurses have EVER seen a mother 12 days overdue to go home to wait it out. LOL It is very normal for me to go overdue though, I have MANY very overdue healthy babies to show for it. The dr that was willing to do a gentle induction on me, a VBAC momma going on her 7th VBAC, let me go home to wait it out. The other drs believe in RCS or stay on hospital bedrest.
I went in for high BP readings and headaches. They kept me, but all my tests were great. The NSTs were great. So, after 80 hrs in, they let me go home. I didn't get worse, the baby was great, and I figured instead of a RCS, the full moon here, that we could just wait on home bedrest. The one dr that admitted me was totally agreeable to this as long as I have my DH to get me right back over there at a drop of the hat; for BP spikes, decreased baby movement, or early labor.
No New Year's Eve baby, to my DH's disappointment, and so far, no New Year baby either. I think bedrest could be hindering labor, but maybe not. Babies come when they come. So, I have a NST scheduled (per drs suggestion) for Monday at 16 days overdue. I was willing to just postpone the RCS I had made for yesterday to Monday, but he knew that I really didn't want an RCS, so he said NST and go from there. Amazing dr, that is for sure. Kymberli

Joe, Aug 10 17:53:
We've worked with Mobihand to correct the QuickPull Pro listing for "non-touch" devices and this issue is now resolved. You will not have any issues with subsequent releases.
If you purchased QuickPull Pro for "non-touch" devices and you own a touch screen device you will be okay. The application is exactly the same. The installer on the "touch version" only sets a setting to improve the format of QuickPull Pro on your screen. If QuickPull Pro doesn't look quite right on your screen you can follow the steps below.
1. Go to Options > Advanced > Applications menu
2. Highlight "QuickPull" in the list.
3. Press Menu > Disable Compatibility Mode.

"There is an 80 percent chance that wheat prices have peaked for the 2006/07 wheat marketing year," was the first sentence of the June 6 Wheat Scoops article. I received an e-mail from a "Texas wheat farmer" which said, "You are right just about as much as the weathermen in Texas." My reply: "Did you take advantage of the price this time? And you probably have really good weathermen in Texas."
The following is a recap of wheat price movements since May 22 and a prediction of what to expect wheat prices to do between now and Dec 1. It is important to note what proportion of wheat price changes were due to futures contract price changes and what proportion was due to basis changes.
On May 22, central Oklahoma and Texas Panhandle wheat prices were about $4.88. By June 19, prices had declined 55 cents to $4.33. Prices recovered to $4.96 by July 11 and then fell to $4.58 by July 19.
The 55-cent price decline from May 22 to June 19 was due to a 1-cent decline in the basis and a 54-cent decline in the KCBT September wheat futures contract price. The 63-cent price increase from June 19 to July 11 was due to an 8-cent basis increase and a 55-cent increase in the KCBT September wheat futures contract.
The recent 38-cent price decline was due to the KCBT September contract falling 38 cents. The July/September contract basis held steady at a minus 29 cents. During the price declines, the KCBT September contract remained in a long-run uptrend. Unless the KCBT September contract breaks the $4.80 price level, the uptrend will continue.
Critical KCBT September contract price levels are $4.80, $5 and $5.25. On July 18, the Septeber contract closed at $4.90¼. The September contract bottomed at $4.77 and closed at $4.87 on July 19, which tested the $4.80 support level. The September wheat contract was up 15 cents and above $5 on July 20. It takes two consecutive closes below $4.80 to establish a downtrend.
There are two positive factors in these price movements. First is that the basis improved 8 cents (went from minus37 cents to minus 29 cents). During the last five years, the July average monthly basis for the September contract was a minus 29 cents and the July/September contract basis averaged a minus 25 cents last year. An 8-cent basis gain and a minus 29-cent basis indicate that demand remains relatively strong.
Second is that during the price declines, the KCBT September and December contract prices remained above the long-run uptrend line. This implies that Oklahoma and Texas Panhandle wheat prices should remain above $4.50.
United States spring wheat and foreign wheat production (weather) will determine whether wheat prices continue the uptrend or establish a downtrend. The U.S. marketing year wheat price tend is normally set in late August and early September. This is when the market gets a handle on the size of the foreign wheat crop.
Current projections are for the U.S. spring wheat crop to be 526 million bushels. United States wheat-ending stocks are projected to be 438 million bushels compared to a five-year average of 580 million bushels.
World wheat production is projected to be 22.2 billion bushels. World wheat consumption is projected to be 22.7 billion bushels and world wheat-ending stocks are projected to decline to 4.9 billion bushels. The five-year average is 5.6 billion bushels.
Both world and U.S. wheat stocks are tight. It does not take much reduction in expected production to cause wheat prices to increase. Right now, it appears that the market is not willing to bet on higher than expected production (lower prices) or lower than expected production (higher prices). However, the trend is up and normally, "the trend is your friend."

doneb necesitaba un nuevo diseño de página web y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 54 diseños de 10 diseñadores freelance.
We are working on building the best-of-breed server monitoring solution out there. To that end, we want to have the most useful, easy to use, and attractive reports possible.
We have an existing product that has web-based reports of server health. They're OK, but it's time to improve. You can see some of the existing reports at http://www.poweradmin.com/servermonitor (screenshots on that page). Simple is good. Easy to read is good.
After we redo this report, we'll likely do a few others and come back to the same designer for help. HTML would be a nice bonus, but not required at all.
- Most important, it must look professional. People rely on our software -- they need to feel comfortable knowing this software will perform, make their life easier, keep them from getting chewed out by their boss, etc
- Needs to be clean/simple -- the information that is being presented is complex enough, we don't want the design/colors/etc competing for the user's attention
- Attractive - on the other hand, we don't want black and white and boring fonts :) Some companies put this up on the wall for everyone to see, so it should be comforting.
- Would be nice if it fit into our existing color scheme (such as the website) but this is a low priority request.
- Specifics: Look closely at the existing report:
- http://www.poweradmin.com/Design/DN…ummary.htm
- The coloring didn't quite work on the saved report above, so look at some screenshots:
- http://www.poweradmin.com/design/basic.png
- http://www.poweradmin.com/design/ba…bottom.png
- You'll notice the report is shown within our application -- it can also be opened in a web browser. Also note that as you resize the screen, the two disk drive boxes at the top float up or down as space allows -- that's really important.
- The report needs to look good at all screen widths, in other words, no fixed width. Some people view it on 800x600 screens (of which 200pixels might be the navigation bar in the app), and some put it on giant monitors being fully maximized.
- In the new design, we basically want to change the top where the blue and white bands are (Uptime, Disks, Memory, OS, etc).
- Instead, we want to have a bunch of floating boxes (like the current disk boxes) that will a grow and then drop down as needed. We expect to have graphs in those boxes (typical CPU line chart, disk space line chart, bandwidth line chart, disk space pie chart?, etc). We expect to have 1 to 6 chart boxes depending on configuration, so it needs to look good with differing number of boxes (this is a big part of the challenge)
- In addition, we do want to have some static information (OS, Uptime, Model, CPUs, etc) like today, and a section for server Notes (ie "Talk to Bob before rebooting this server"). Currently we're envisioning a single colored band across the top of the report with this info (maybe one band for notes, one for static info) -- but we're open to new ideas. In fact, since the static info is of lesser importance, it should probably be below the chart boxes??
- A rough idea of what we're after is at http://www.poweradmin.com/design/ba…r-idea.png
- We do want ideas on the graphs themselves (color, grid or not, etc). We'll likely be using the graph control from http://www.amcharts.com
- The very top dark-blue bar with the server name and report update time is OK as-is, but it could change too. We definitely want to keep the basic information.
- A link somewhere (at the top?) on the report to a list of all reports would be good.
- A link somewhere (at the top?) on the report to a PDF version of the report would be good
- The content in the list of monitors and errors/actions at the bottom of the report will likely remain as-is, but better styling would be great (as long as it's simple -- we're using ExtJS grids and don't have a ton of control over the HTML)
- Don't want whimsical
- Don't want 'fun'
- Don't want trendy
- Don't want anything that is at all hard to read (ie visually distracting)
- We don't want something like this (a competitor): http://www.poweradmin.com/design/5.png

Discovered by touch
I was going to pluck a leaf off this tree, and then I felt a turgid little lump in my hand along with the leaf. I don't know what sort of caterpillar it is.
Now don't quote me on this but I think that what you have there is a Luna moth caterpillar. You are certainly in the right part of the world for it to be so.
As a person who works with preschoolers, I'm pretty afraid of finding turgid lumps! My current mantra is Flush And Wash.
On a slightly less gross train of thought, we are finding hornworms as big as cigars on our tomato plants. I hope you have a luna moth caterpillar.
I probably won't get to see if it becomes a luna moth or not. This little fellow lives down the road a couple miles from us.

Skip to comments.Jerry Finkelstein, New York Power Broker, Dies at 96
Posted on 11/30/2012 6:22:35 AM PST by AtlasStalled
Jerry Finkelstein, who made a fortune in business, real estate and newspapers, including The New York Law Journal and The Hill, and for many years was a self-styled Democratic power broker in New York City, died on Wednesday at his home in Manhattan. He was 96.
(Excerpt) Read more at nytimes.com ...
Finklefactoid #352: He once came thisclose to being Ann Coulter's father-in-law.
(from an unimpeachable source)
I wonder how much in death taxes he is saving his heirs by dying now and not in 6 weeks. The evil rich need to be sucked dry!
Total speculation: Could Finklestein be the "Wall Street Insider"? If real, this Insider was reported to be in poor health right before the election.
That was the very first thing I thought of. The "Insider" spoke often about trying to make up for grievous political errors in his life. It would seem spending decades supporting a party that devolved into craven socialism would be one bigtime error.
Also, the Ulsterman website has posted a video of "Amazing Grace" this morning.
Kind of a big tip-off there regarding Finklestein as possible "Wall Street Insider"????
The WSI was born in Europe and came to America from France in the 1930s with his parents, just escaping the Nazi war machine.He fears Obama is another Hitler.
Mr. Finkelstein was born and raised here.
Hopefully, WSI is still with us. We have not heard from him since the day after the election.
He's Bill Maher's dad ?
Jerry was Andrew Stein's dad.
My exact thought as soon as I saw header.... Wow, Got check out his Website.
Amazing Grace was from 11/3
This might just be disinformation put out by Ulsterman to protect WSI!
Actually, it was 11/30.
Or maybe he was just worried about the pre-election polling showing Barry leading!

Upholstered Ceiling Panels at Plein Sud
I haven't broached the topic of fabric on the ceiling since I nearly got booed off Apartment Therapy a few years ago. However, after drooling over the upholstered ceiling panels at Plein Sud in Tribeca, I couldn't help but revisit the concept.
Plein Sud, designed by AvroKo, is the restaurant attached to the lovely Smyth Tribeca hotel. During my visit a few weeks ago, I was tempted to eat there nearly every meal just so I could ogle the beautiful decor. Like the rest of the world, I'm a sucker for raw wood, but it was the subtly faded upholstered ceiling panels that made my heart flutter. They are the perfect visual contrast to the reclaimed planks surrounding them, but more than that, they are a great sound absorber. As I admired them, I began wondering why we don't see the concept employed more often, especially in commercial and hospitality settings. Thoughts?

Are e-visits as good as office appointments?
A new study suggests that "e-visits" for sinus infections and urinary tract infections (UTIs) may be cheaper than in-person office visits and similarly effective.
For e-visits, patients fill out online forms about their symptoms and a doctor or nurse gets back to them within a few hours with treatment advice.
In the new study, the main difference between e-visits and office visits was that patients who received their care online were prescribed more antibiotics - a finding that could be concerning but is hard to interpret on its own, researchers said.
"All over the country, more and more of these e-visits are taking place," said Dr. James Rohrer, a family medicine doctor at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, who has studied online care.
Insurance companies believe e-visits will save money, he said. For patients, the biggest benefit is convenience - including that they don't have to schedule the appointment beforehand.
"If you're not feeling well, getting cleaned up and going into a clinic may not be too attractive," added Rohrer, who wasn't involved in the new research. And with e-visits, "there are no parking problems."
For the new study, researchers compared all e-visits and office visits for sinus infections and UTIs at four primary care practices in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, between January 2010 and May 2011. Over 90 percent of appointments for both conditions were in-person office visits, out of a total of more than 8,000.
Dr. Ateev Mehrotra from the RAND Corporation and University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine and his colleagues found a similar proportion of patients - seven percent or less in each case - had a follow-up visit for the same condition within the next three weeks. That suggests misdiagnosis and treatment failure weren't any higher with e-visits.
However, people with both conditions who had e-visits were more likely to be prescribed antibiotics than those who had in-person appointments. The effect was especially strong for UTIs: 99 percent of those people who had an e-visit received an antibiotic, compared to 49 percent with an office visit.
That could be because doctors are more conservative with treatment when they can't directly examine their patients, the researchers wrote in JAMA Internal Medicine. But it could also be worrisome, given that over-prescription of antibiotics is tied to drug resistance.
"That is something we really need to be careful about and watch for," Mehrotra told Reuters Health.
Even with that difference in prescribing, treating each patient with a UTI cost an average of $74 per e-visit versus $93 for an office visit, based on the researchers' rough estimate.
Rohrer told Reuters Health some researchers still worry that doctors or nurses may miss some relevant information during an e-visit that would be clearer in a face-to-face appointment.
According to Mehrotra, the current findings are "reassuring" in that sense, but don't definitively answer the question of whether diagnoses are just as likely to be correct in an e-visit setting.
Rohrer said future studies should continue to look into the effectiveness of online care.
There are bound to be some kinks in the system or variation in e-visit quality while the concept is still being developed, he added. "This is clearly a moving target."

Emeritus Professor of Psychology and Neural Science
Motivation, Conditioning, and Learning
Togetherness in rodents may be more social than sexual. We've trained rats, mice, and prairie voles to perform a learned response for access to another member of the same species. To our surprise, it does not seem to matter whether the subject rat is sexually motivated by hormones or not, or whether the target animal is receptive or not receptive or the same or opposite sex. These rodents like to be with conspecifics and if a sexual encounter is added to the experience it doesn't matter much. This mechanism seems to support the colonial residential style of these species as Meadow voles, which are more solitary in habits, seem indifferent to social contact with their own species but are motivated to respond for sexual opportunities. Although we continue to write about this problem, laboratory work has been terminated with Professor Matthews' retirement.
Human Conversation
A new project involves a rigorous behavioral analysis of the interactive patterns of speech sounds in human conversation. Recorded conversations are analyzed for regularities in utterances, interruptions, over-talking, pausing, and vocal loudness. A bout analysis reveals patterns of turn-taking that distinguish intimate, polite, instructional, and dominant conversation formats, among others. Graphical feedback will be explored as a means to modify problematic conversation patterns.

TUNIS, Tunisia — A party led by interim President Moncef Marzouki said on Monday it had "frozen" its withdrawal from Tunisia's coalition government while talks continue on a political crisis sharpened by the killing of an opposition politician.
Mohamed Abbou, secretary-general of the secular Congress for the Republic (CPR), told a news conference that the party, which had decided at the weekend to pull out of the government, would stay on for a week.
"The party has decided to freeze the resignations of its ministers for a week for more discussions on a coalition government," he said.
The CPR is one of two junior non-Islamist partners in a coalition dominated by the Islamist Ennahda party.
Prime Minister Hamadi Jebali said after Wednesday's assassination of leftist politician Chokri Belaid that he would form a non-partisan government of technocrats to run the country until elections can be held later in the year.
Senior politicians in Ennahda and its coalition partners, had criticized Jebali for failing to consult them first.
Belaid's killing — Tunisia's first such political assassination in decades — has thrown the government and the country into turmoil, widening rifts between the dominant Islamist Ennahda party and its secular-minded foes.
The slain politician's widow, Besma Belaid, called on Monday for Jebali and his cabinet to step down.
"My only demand is the resignation of the government which failed to guarantee the security of Chokri Belaid," she told Reuters outside the National Constituent Assembly, where she and several hundred supporters had gathered.
"They must go, all of them, including the prime minister," she said. "The game is over. If they stay, one fears to see other assassinations in this climate of fear and violence."

Dodge Recalls 2009-2010 Ram 1500 and Dakota
- The pinion nut on the rear axle could loosen, causing an axle to lock up.
- Loss of control or a crash could result.
- About 44,300 2009-2010 Ram 1500 and Dakota pickups are included.
During a five-month period in 2009, Dodge left an important component out of some of the 9.25-inch rear axles fitted to its 2009 and 2010 Ram 1500 and Dakota pickups. Without an adhesive patch properly in place, the rear axle pinion nut might loosen, potentially causing a crash. The latest Dodge recall includes inspection of 44,300 potentially affected vehicles and installation of a retainer to keep the nut tight.
The voluntary safety recall campaign is expected to begin next month, and all repairs will be performed at no charge to owners.
In a defect notice to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), Chrysler (Dodge's parent company) says that a loose rear axle pinion nut might cause the axle to lock up, which could result in a loss of control and, potentially, a crash. But Chrysler's notice mentions no such incidents.
It does mention reimbursing those who have already paid out of their own pockets for repairs to the component. Axle failures have been widely reported in these vehicles, and Chrysler has determined that a loosening axle pinion nut is to blame. Owners who paid for repairs related to the issue before the recall should submit documentation to be considered for reimbursement.
NHTSA provides more information on this recall on its Web site, SaferCar.gov. For information on the Dodge recall, search for campaign ID 12V47400. Chrysler also can answer questions at 1-800-247-9753. The automaker's reference number for the 2009-2010 Dodge Dakota and Ram 1500 recall is M34.
Used-vehicle shoppers interested in the 2009-2010 Dakota or Ram 1500 should be sure that the rear axle pinion nut has been inspected under this recall. If not, a Dodge dealer can handle the service at no charge. Recalled vehicles eligible for certified pre-owned sale are required to be inspected and repaired before being sold.
Automotive recalls help to make the roadways safer by identifying and addressing safety hazards that result from substandard components or manufacturing. As in this case, recalls can sometimes result in owners getting money back for related repairs performed before a recall begins.
What it means to you: Shoppers interested in the 2009-2010 Dodge Dakota or Ram 1500 should be sure that the rear axle has been repaired under recall. If not, a Dodge dealer can handle the work at no charge. Owners who paid for the work themselves will be reimbursed.

aero india, aviation, c 17 globemaster, Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd., Indian Air Force, tiger moth planes
- Tiger Moth planes in New Zealand, Dec. 27, 2007.
A World War II aircraft will take to the skies above Bangalore alongside one of the biggest aircraft in the world at India's biennial aerospace, defense and civil aviation exhibitions, which begins Wednesday.
It will be the first time a vintage Tiger Moth has appeared in the near two-decade history of the Aero India show, which this year runs to Sunday. The aircraft will be joined by a Boeing Co. BA +0.01% C-17 Globemaster airlifter for a flyby aiming to demonstrate the growth of the Indian Air Force since the 1940s.
India's Defense Ministry says the flight will "showcase the spectrum of technological advancement between the 'moth' and the 'master.'"
India ordered 10 C-17 Globemasters from Boeing in 2011, making it the largest buyer of the aircraft outside the U.S. India will receive five of the airlifters this year and the rest in 2014 in an order valued at about $4.1 billion. Boeing has delivered 250 C-17 airlifters worldwide, including 218 to the U.S. armed forces.
The Tiger Moth and C-17 Globemaster flight will take place at the Yelahanka Air Force Station, the venue for Aero India since its launch in 1996.
The Tiger Moth is a two-seat, single bay biplane powered by a 145 horse power, four-cylinder inverted air-cooled engine manufactured by the erstwhile de Havilland Engine Co. of the U.K. The Tiger Moth has no electric system and has to be started manually. It was the primary trainer aircraft for the Royal Air Force during the Second World War. It was also the basic trainer aircraft for the Indian Air Force from 1940 until it was replaced by the HT-2 trainer designed by state-run Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd.
The Globemaster is an altogether different beast, capable of carrying a payload of up to 77.5 tons, including combat vehicles, artillery guns and battle-ready troops.
Organizers say more than 700 companies are expected to have a presence at this year's Aero India, with those from the U.S. leading the list, followed by Israel and Russia. There will be delegations from 78 countries, up from 45 at the previous show in 2011.
Overseas companies are looking to capitalize on India's plans to spend billions of dollars to upgrade its Soviet-vintage defense equipment. New Delhi has budgeted about 1.93 trillion rupees ($36 billion) for defense spending in the financial year through March 2013, a 13% increase from last year.
