It's been over 2 1/2 months since I updated where I'm at with my Quake Weight challenges I. (Please check out my previous posts for context "OK, the Quake Weight has gotta go" and "Shifting the Quake Weight – update #1"
My exercise has wavered over this time. I've been plagued with a return of back pain, which I've let affect me. When in fact historically, my back pain has been easier to control when I exercise more. I think a little discomfort can often deter people from exercise, when in fact, it's what your body actually needs to help itself heal. Joints that aren't moved enough can often stiffen up through disuse and that sitffness can creat more pain – it's like a vicious downward spiral – one that I have to constantly remind myself of.
I also threw my hat in the ring, so-to-speak, to fight in the charity boxing match the Fight for Christchurch. I love boxing. I used to do a boxing fitness (non-contact) class every week at the gym. And in fact I was in that class when the 22 February quake hit and subsequently lost my boxing gloves. And I'd do one-on-one training with the boxing trainer or my PT. Boxing is great all round fitness and I was really hoping I'd be chosen to fight, as the 12 weeks of training would have been awesome, but sadly I wasn't. Judging by the women contenders to date I'm not blonde or model-like in looks. I may still be the back-up fighter, in case one of them gets injured. We'll see
So, I've kind of used that as an excuse as well. I thought that it would give me some focus. So, know I have to move on and refocus again. And yesterday, my dear PT Gareth, decided it was time for me to get the gloves on during my usual weekly session. I loved it. But I realised out out of condition I was for punching in the first 90 seconds of the warm up….it left me gasping and my arms aching. Not a good sign. However, my brain seemed to remember what I was supposed to do to throw a punch and my body responded. However, today is another story and I'm in pain greater than what I experienced the last time I broke a rib. Sneezing reduced me to tears today and I nearly passed out. I'm now on painkillers and anti-inflammatories. A lesson in re-conditioning. But I don't regret it. I really missed getting my gloves on and hitting shit.
But, what you're really here for are the pics. So, here they are. I'm wearing the same jeans in all pics. And you may notice they fit a little differently around the waist. That's because my actual waistline has reduced by a whopping 5cm since the beginning of May.

Today's bento features two delicious Just Bento recipes! It has tuna-tofu-miso miniburgers, broccoli stalk kinpira (with added carrot) and rice sprinkled with yukari. Oh, and a little container of sweet chili sauce in which to dip the miniburgers.
I mixed up the miniburgers last night, so all I had to do this morning was form the patties and fry em up. I made 4 burgers for each bento and ended up only using half of the mixture ... so these might be making an appearance tomorrow too, if we don't eat them for dinner tonight.
Yum!! :)
Mmmmm yum, looks delicious! ^_^

OSA is trying its best. It should be judged as a civic organization. OSA shouldnot be blamed for failure in politics. The Oromo people at large and our political leaders are responsible for the politics.

I absolutely love baking pies! And it goes without saying that I absolutely love eating pie!
Think about it…
Pie is just plain awesome! It brings a sense of comfort, and a comfy home feeling.
What is with all the cupcake love these days? Yes, I love a good red velvet cupcake, but it certainly doesn't bring the nostalgia of a homemade pie! Am I right?
Ever since I can remember I was the kid that watched the cooking channels for all the baking shows. Besides making me crave what they were making, it would get my creative wheels turning. From then on I have had this insane desire to be an incredible baker.
I have tried my hand at baking the cool decorative cakes and cupcakes. While they turn out yummy (most of the time), they don't always turn out pretty. Not to mention the immense frustration I get from my lack of skill with cake decorating. My kitchen ends up destroyed… flour everywhere, not a single pan clean in the kitchen and a lopsided cake that was definitely prettier in my head than on my plate.
But pie, ahhh that is another story. Last night I was creating a new recipe for my sister's birthday and let me tell you I was loving every minute of it. Don't get me wrong, I have had my failed attempts at recipes. But that is part of getting better, you learn from experience. I just feel like I am in my element when I work with pies. Oh, did I mention the pie that I made was a mix between an Oreo pie and a french silk? I'm thinking of calling it Oreo silk, or silky Oreo…
Get ready 2014, I'm baking lots of pies this year!

I have traced my McMillan family back to our first settler in Australia
The original spelling of our MacMillan name was Mcmillen, as signed by James (as he was always known) on the original land records for the property brought by him, at Dean near Ballarat.
The information provided by James's son John (Stephen John) on his death certificate lists James's parents as William McMillan and Mary Jane McMillan nee Kearns, his birthplace on this and other certificates I hold was Dundee, Scotland. I have been unable to find any trace of the above couple in Scotland. His death certificate has James living in Victoria for 31 years, again I have been unable to find any shipping record for our Robert James. As a likely candidate I found a John McMillan arriving into Victoria aboard the Conway in 1858, he went straight to Kyneton having purchased his own passage.
James and Elizabeth were living in Woodend near Kyneton when they started their family around 1860. Sometime after 1864
they moved to Kingston as it was from here that James applied for the land at Dean. The application was made in 1867.
I have no record of a marriage taking place but on various certificates, Elizabeth and James have differing information,
(see below) this leads me to suspect they may not have married.
Their first three children's births weren't registered but the place of birth, of all, was listed on their
marriage records as Woodend...
The eldest children, a daughter, then son, were named for Elizabeth's parents Stephen John (Fitzpatrick) and Sarah Jane (nee Mack, which could be McNamara), As this was not a general naming pattern for the time it could indicate that these first two children were Elizabeth's before she met James? The next child (my great grandfather) Robert James after James then William after James's father. Thomas for ? and then Annie, If we follow the naming pattern Annie should be the name of James's mother? The last child was Elizabeth, although she was christened Andray and known as Neen! On the children's birth registrations all have one first name and their second names were given sometime after.
Sarah married Angus CAMPBELL, a 'Dealer'. the family lived in Bath Street, Clunes between 1885 -1891
John married Florence MacDONALD in Creswick, 1886
Robert married Bridget GUTHRIE in Ballarat. These are my great grandparents, see obituary below
William born and died in 1866
William married Margaret Penman DANSON, their family lived in Swan Hill
Thomas married Mary Jane GUTHRIE (Bridget sister), This family still has descendants in Mildura.
Annie married James Bernard KEATING, a neighbour in Dean, they lived in Creswick
Elizabeth born and died in 1873
Elizabeth registered as Andray, known as Neen, married Henry Arthur CONNELL
I will be happy to exchange information on any of these family's. Contact Kaye Mac,
Roberts obituary
Bunyip and Garfield Express: Friday February 5th 1932.
Friends of Mr Robert McMillan, a well-known and popular farmer of Cora Lynn, will regret to learn that he passed away at the Bunyip Private Hospital on Saturday last, at the age of 68 years. The deceased, who was born at Woodend, has been in indifferent health for a number of years, but about a week previous to his death, he was admitted to the hospital, heart failure being the immediate cause of death. The late Mr McMillan was of a genial disposition, and always took a keen interest in sport and matters appertaining to the welfare of the district. Much sympathy has been expressed for the bereaved widow and family (Robert, Thomas, Mary, Willie, Mathew, Eileen, Steve, Elizabeth, Pious Annie and Joseph.) in the great loss they have sustained by the death of a devoted husband and loving parent. The funeral took place to the Bunyip cemetery on Sunday, and was largely attended by sympathising friends
A great way to gain information for a Family History is by purchasing some Birth, Death and Marriage certificates.
The cost of these prohibits us from getting to many, but they are a great resource in gaining information.
So far the only certificates I have purchased have been in Australia.
These give a good deal of information but are only as good as the information supplied.
I decided to include these in my pages so you can see that by getting just the one certificate
and believing the information supplied, you could get on the wrong track quite easily.
Here are the Death records for Robert James McMillan and Elizabeth Guthrie.

How did you know the ballast was the problem? When my tv is turned on the green light blinks continuously and sort of sounds like a jet engine but really quiet. It also was making an arc welder type sound (also very quiet) and emitting blue light from the ballast area so Im lead to believe this is the problem.
I have a WD-57732 and I can tell you that to change my lamp ballast you have to pull out the whole lower carriage because the ballast is in a enclosed metal box and you cannot get to the back screw to get it off. Even when I did all of this and put in a replacement ballast that was used I still got a flashing green light with a solid red and the TV turns itself off in one minute. So $69.95 for a used ballast $159.00 for a new lamp and still no picture after 3 hours of work. Time for a new TV.

NHL notes: Reprieves for Scott Gomez, Wade Redden?
Scott Gomez and Wade Redden may have a chance to play in the NHL this season after all.
The league and the players' association have agreed to allow teams to use an accelerated compliance buyout, according to ESPN.
The modified rule will allow all clubs to exercise this option with one player, who must be placed on waivers by Thursday, a source said. These players cannot become unrestricted free agents until they clear waivers.
There will be no benefit for NHL teams who use this buyout as clubs will still be on the hook for 100% of the player's salary owed this year while carrying the full cap charge for the 2013 season.
Alex Galchenyuk was again the highlight of the Canadiens training camp in the Montreal suburb of Brossard on Tuesday.
The 18-year-old forward, drafted third overall by the Canadiens in the 2012 NHL Draft, was pleased with the crowd reaction after undressing Carey Price in a shootout for a second straight day.
"If you decide to keep him, he could play on the powerplay," head coach Michel Therrien said during his daily press briefing.
Therrien is already seeing progress in his club at practice.
"I like what I see of the team," he said. "It's starting to take shape. Today, physical condition and structure was even better than Monday. This is encouraging for everyone. It was on another level compared to Monday."
Therrien is still realistic. "It will not be a perfect Saturday," he says about the season opener against the Toronto Maple Leafs at home.
"It is impossible with only six days of training compared to six weeks. But I can assure you that we will be as ready as possible."
Therrien has no intention of dismantling the trio of David Desharnais, Max Pacioretty and Erik Cole, who formed the team's best offensive unit last season.
Meanwhile, forward Tomas Plekanec is nursing a rib injury and skated alone for a few minutes after Tuesday's practice.
David Booth had an unlucky start to Vancouver Canucks training camp.
The forward is expected to be out of the lineup until at least late February with a groin injury. Multiple reports state he suffered the injury during the preseason physical.
"Booth had an MRI done (Monday). He will be out approximately 4-to-6 weeks," said Canucks head coach Alain Vigneault.
Booth was out from early December until mid-January last season after sustaining a sprained medial collateral ligament in his right knee.
The 28-year-old also missed more than three months during the 2009-10 season with the Florida Panthers after suffering a concussion resulting from a vicious hit by then-Flyers captain Mike Richards.
BRIEFLY: The Detroit Red Wings named Henrik Zetterberg as their 36th captain in franchise history, taking over from retired defenceman Nicklas Lidstrom … In other captaincy news, the Philadelphia Flyers named Claude Giroux its 19th leader in franchise history … George Gund III, who, along with his brother Gordon, helped bring hockey back to the Bay Area with the San Jose Sharks, passed away on Tuesday.

I, personally, voted to stay in the EU because that way less people would have the chance to become richer than me and there is nothing worse in this world than someone with more money than one. These people make me want to throw up all over the floor.
Anyway, a lot of the good peasants of this land are naturally a trifle unhappy with the result and are in a state of disappointment, confusion, worry and incontinence. So I have come up with a tip-top piece of advice that will help anybody overcome post EU-referendum blues
"But why is this so important Ware-Armitage" I hear people ask. Well it's important because the blues can lead to long-term unhappiness. Long-term unhappiness can lead to depression, depression can lead to anger and we all know what anger can lead to; yes that's right anger can lead to a global thermonuclear war and we don't want that do we.
You will need the following;
1) One large petrol tanker
2) A large supermarket
3) A large black flag with some squiggly lines on.
4) A day off
Simply, attach your large, black, squiggly flag to the side of your petrol tanker. Get inside, start the engine and drive at top speed to your selected supermarket shouting 'Admiral Ackbar' or something like that, and then crash it into the main entrance taking as many people with you as you possibly can. With a bit of luck the impact will trigger a chain reaction igniting the petrol in the tanker, causing an horrific explosion and what have you. If you're lucky the thrust caused by the blast will propel you clear of the scene and you can then carry on with your normal, daily activities such as doing the washing up, buying vegetables and passing water on people doing their shopping in Top Man, etc.
Follow this procedure and you will immediately feel born again with a whole new outlook on life. All your concerns about the EU will have evaporated in your quest to evade the filth (police).

Bolt USB Charger and Backup Battery
Does your phone always go dead at the wrong time. You plug it in each evening and recharge it, but after a day of phone calls, surfing, and watching a few video clips it is dead again. The Bolt USB Charger is not going to charge your phone faster. It is not going to make your charge last longer. It will provide you with 3 charges in the time it takes to get one. The Bolt Charger is both a USB plug-in charger, plus a battery backup for your phone. The 3000 mAh battery hidden inside charges at the same time you charge your phone.

Imagine, you charge your phone, pack the charger in your bag, and when the phone starts to complain about a lower battery while you are stuck in traffic, you just plugin to the Bolt and recharge. It makes a great addition for traveling execs, campers, and commuters.
The Bolt USB Charger and Backup Battery sells for $59.99 from Bite My Apple.

Poll: What is your favorite MsMaggs CSI story? Vote Now!
Author has written 24 stories for CSI.
If you're here as a fan of my Nick & Greg series:
Where You Are is complete. For a story summary please see my detailed notes at the top of The Prologue/Chapter 1.
The Day Before You is complete.
If you're here about my All-Cast CSI series:
Thank you for stopping by. Please don't let the low review volume here scare you off! I know it looks odd to have SO many chapters and so few reviews LOL. I have over a thousand people accessing the series directly from my website and post here as a secondary site. I hope you'll give the series a shot. Depending on who you like and/or ship, you may like one part more than another. Gravity is very GS focused, but if you're a Nick or Greg fan, you'll find a ton starting in Feasibility Study. If you're a fan of obscure characters, like Vartann, you'll be happy to know I've completely developed his character beginning in Laws of Motion - Book 2 and he's in the center of the action starting in Book 3.
Laws of Motion (3rd & Current Story in the series) - The story began in Gravity, when our favorite CSIs' lives were changed forever all because of the actions of evil and manipulative Mike Rodgers. Feasibility Study intimately explored the backstories and personal lives of the CSIs and their loved ones. Now, find out what happens as they face the future and confront the past. NOTE: Books 1 - 3 are COMPLETE as of 1/31/07. NOTE: For a Character List/Summary for Laws of Motion Book 3 and Photo Pages, click my hompage link and follow the links from there. People have used this to catch them up and start reading as of Book 3, but most go back and read the other stories.
Gravity (1st) - Complete. A Grissom and Sara centered story with N,Gr,C,W,B. A missed birthday, a cold case, and one investigator's gut instinct, change the lives of the CSIs forever.
Feasibility Study (2nd - an 8 part sequel to Gravity) - Complete. An all-cast serial story depicting the everyday lives of the CSIs and their relationships with each other and their loved ones, including their backstories. See below for specifics.
Notes on Feasibility Study:
After 65 chapters and over 600 reviews, Feasibility Study was pulled by the website on 4/13. The ships in the ENTIRE Feasibility Study series are: primarily GS, GrOC, NOC, but also has some significant CW and BrLH at times. Every couple will not have equal time on the front burner and the friendships between all the characters are just as important to me as the romances between the couplesso a lot of time is spent on the friendships. I've labeled the stories to show which couples and characters are front burner but all characters are in every part of the series...
Feasibility Study (FS 1-20) GS (primary focus) , NOC, Gr, B, C
Birthday Boys (55- 62) GS, GrOC, NOC (relationship development begins)
Bluffs, Encounters and Calls (63-71) GS, GrOC, NOC (Nick backstory and Carrie backstory start to develop)
Thanks, Maggs

Awesome prize of the day...
goes to Dan Nicholson for adding autoconf support to mesa. For the first time, mesa can now pick up libdrm from a non-standard location (say, ~krh/install/lib/libdrm.so) automatically through pkg-config. With that, it's possible to build the entire X/DRI/OpenGL stack in a non-standard prefix, so you can work on the stack, without having to overwrite system libraries. And it's a simple and clean solution that can co-exist with the old hand-rolled config system. Good work!
Posted by Kristian Høgsberg at 5:57 PM

There is only one thing left. Making xserver not requiring Mesa source code at build ;-)

That's the next thing I'm going to work on and part of the reason I started doing the autoconf work in Mesa in the first place. It could be pretty ugly, but probably not as ugly as what's in xserver right now :)
Thanks, Kristian!

Oh, that's very interesting news to read. Thanks Dan for the work and Kristian for the heads up!

Post Edited (PAlady) : 4/11/2008 2:03:46 PM (GMT-6)
Just about to throw another log into the woodstove, as we have a NE wind & snowstorm going on, but just had to thank you Toritoo for the smiley face and the wonderful description of your gorgeous CA day! You truly are a great writer, in addition to your art glass & clothing design...you have an artist's eye for sure! Glad you had a 1/2 hr of pain relief! Maybe tomorrow it'll be a whole hour! :)
PALady, you can have this weather---and you WILL! We call it a "wintery mix" here---aka: slush! But they promise us 60's by Wednesdays! So I'll send you that later! But I want to enjoy it first!
You also mentioned a "theme song" in another post---I remember that episode of Ally McBeal from years ago: well, tonight after reading about sunny & lovely CA, thanks to Toritoo's eloquent prose, I wanna be a California girl too! In fact, that is now going thru my head, including the lyrics about the "Midwestern farmer's daughter, they keep their boyfriends warm at night..." LOL!! Well, tonight for sure!
Thanks Toritoo--I'll be a CA Girl from now on, until we warm up at least, next month!
Rest well everyone! I feel like we're all one diverse, multi-talented & supportive family! Such a great community of friends!
~Lakeside, inside, stove-side, w/ cats at side, can't be outside!

Since January 1, 2008, I have tried to make it my mission to read the Bible throughout the year and my boyfriend has joined me in this. It is true that the Old Testament is hard to understand at times, but it truly does brighten my day. In this day and age, any time I can find peace is wonderful and I can experience that while I read the Bible.
The peace that I experience is not just spiritual, but also emotional and physical. There is just something about God's Holy Word that makes me smile everyday and that has helped me get through each day. When I read the Bible on a good day, I can get my spiritual blessing, an over-pouring of what God has blessed me with during that day and how I can bless others through my lifestyle. It also helps emotionally as well. When times just seem to be rough and all I want to do is stress over things in my life, God reminds me of His Word, and I indulge in that so I do not have to feel an emotional burden. God puts things in my life as a challenge, a test, and how I deal with them tells a lot about me. People can mistreat me, but in God's Word, it says, "Vengeance is mine" (Romans 12:19). I do not have to feel emotionally hurt by what people do because there is no point dwelling on things that I cannot change. The Word can also help physically. I was really feeling ill a few days ago. I could barely sleep for thirty minutes without becoming ill, but after reading God's Word for about thirty minutes that night, I slept like a baby and the next day I felt a lot better. Granted, my back was killing me, but I thanked God for His blessings because that is what His Word says to do, or else He will make the stones cry out in my place and He knows that I have come through too much to have a stone cry out in my place.
Reading the Bible keeps me prepared and aids me in my time of need because this is one of the weapons that God gave me to battle against my enemies on Earth. I never want my guard to be down just because I did not read His Word. I believe what I read in the Bible strengthens me every second of every minut

Writing Excellence Initiative awards grants to faculty & staff
Thirty-one faculty and staff members have been awarded Writing Excellence Initiative grants for projects that will help students improve their writing and increase students' abilities to learn through writing.
The Writing Excellence Initiative has announced grants to support projects by 31 faculty and staff from 16 departments that will improve students' writing and enhance their ability to learn through writing.
"The variety and creativity of these project demonstrates the enthusiasm with which Elon faculty and staff are embracing the university's commitment to enhancing its already exemplary emphasis on students' writing," said Paul Anderson, director of Elon's Writing Across the University.
Winning proposals came from all four of Elon's undergraduate divisions: Elon College, the College of Arts and Sciences, the Martha and Spencer Love School of Business, the School of Communications and the School of Education, as well from Teaching and Learning Technologies and the graduate program in Interactive Media Studies.
Successful proposals focused on projects that range from improving student writing and learning in single courses to aligning the writing assignments and instruction across the many sections of Business Communication and throughout the three years of the Periclean Scholars Program.
Topics include "The Black Experience is the Elon Experience: Putting the Black in bELONg through Writing and Research," "Incorporating Writing in the STEM Disciplines," "Writing with Thumbs: Composition and Media on Mobile Devices" and "Integrating a Quantitative Writing Project in Business Economics."
Some successful projects were proposed by single individuals, others by disciplinary and interdisciplinary teams of up to five persons.
Grant winners will extend the benefits of their projects by sharing their results with the university community in ways that may inspire others and suggest practical strategies that their colleagues may adopt in their courses and programs.
The Proposal Review Committee consisted of Deandra Little, managing director of the Center for the Advancement of Teaching and Learning; Janet MacFall, associate professor of environmental studies and biology; Jessie Moore, assistant professor of English and assistant director of the Center for Engaged Learning; and Paula Patch, director of English 110.

reuters.com/ Iraqi forces advance to try to break insurgent siege of Baiji refinery
SHAFAQNA – The United States, which fought Islamic State's predecessor al Qaeda during the American occupation of Iraq, will send up to 1,500 more troops to train Iraqi forces. Britain also plans to send trainers.The country's long-term stability hinges on efforts to dramatically improve the performance of the army, which crumbled when Islamic State swept through the north.If the siege of the Baiji refinery is broken, Iraq's government is likely to describe it as a major victory over Islamic State.
Iraqi media portrayed the slain general, Malik, as a hero.The Baiji refinery was producing around 175,000 barrels per day before it was closed, a senior Iraqi official said in June. Iraq's domestic daily consumption is estimated at 600,000-700,000 bpd.Government forces, including counter-terrorism units, inside the compound have been surviving on airdrops as military forces outside tried to drive Islamic State militants away.Late last month, Iraqi government forces tried a new approach. Backed by Shi'ite Muslim militias and helicopter gunships, they circled Baiji from the west in order to retake the city and cut off supply lines to insurgents surrounding the refinery a few km (miles) away.Iraqi oil industry officials estimate Islamic State is making multi-million dollar profits from the illegal trade.But months of operations have failed to rescue comrades trapped inside and ensure the strategic site will not fall into the hands of Islamic State, who have used oil and fuel to fund their self-proclaimed caliphate.
Iraqi security forces have used helicopters to attack Islamic State insurgents surrounding the refinery.The army colonel estimated that Iraqi forces had taken about 40 percent of the city center. That could not be independently confirmed.The truck used in the attack was armored, the army colonel and a provincial police command center said, suggesting Islamic State had seized it from defeated Iraqi troops. Tanks and anti-aircraft weapons have also been taken.On Friday night, a suicide bomber rammed a truck packed with explosives into a Humvee transporting senior police commander General Faisal Malik, one of the supervisors of the campaign against Islamic State militants surrounding the refinery. The general and two policemen were killed.
POLICE GENERAL KILLEDIslamic State has also dispatched suicide bombers to keep security forces on the defensive.There was no official confirmation from the United States military that Baghdadi had been wounded. State television cited reports that Baghdadi had been wounded. It gave no further details.Iraqi officials and witnesses said there had also been an air strike in Anbar, and Islamic State had cleared a hospital so that leaders of the group who had gathered for a meeting which was attacked could be treated for injuries.A member of western Anbar Province's security committee said he had heard unconfirmed reports that Baghdadi had been wounded and moved to Syria.
One Twitter account claimed Baghdadi had been wounded but others that support Islamic State said the report was untrue.U.S. air strikes destroyed an Islamic State convoy near the Iraqi city of Mosul on Friday evening but U.S. officials said on Saturday it was unclear whether the group's top commander Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi had been in any of the 10 targeted vehicles."Violent confrontations are taking place in Baiji right now. I've been hearing continuous fire and loud bangs," said Janabi.Baiji resident Sultan al-Janabi told Reuters by telephone from his house that clashes had been raging since the advance, the first time security forces reached the city center since launching a new encirclement strategy at the end of last month."The areas taken so far are 6 km (4 miles) away from Baiji's refinery," he added. He said 12 militants had been killed."There are IEDs (improvised explosive devices) and snipers that are slowing down the advance, but the presence of the air force has facilitated the process of dismantling the IEDs in order to push forward," said the colonel.Islamic State had placed bombs along roads in Baiji and deployed snipers to keep government forces from advancing, tactics used in other cities held by the ultra-hardline Sunni group, which controls swathes of both Iraq and Syria.
The colonel said Iraqi troops entered Baiji, a city of about 200,000 people, from the south and west and took over the al-Tamim neighborhood and city center.Islamic State Sunni insurgents seized Baiji in June during a lightning advance through northern Iraq. Since then, they have surrounded the refinery and halted its production while a detachment of government troops has held out for months under siege inside it.(Reuters) – Iraqi military forces reached the center of the northern city of Baiji on Sunday in an effort to break an Islamic State siege of the country's biggest refinery, triggering fierce clashes with the militants, according to an army colonel and a witness.

Posted May 25, 2017
In the midst of uncertain, disquieting times in the world right now, it's a reassuring joy to be able to report that the State of our Shul is strong, steady and I'd venture to say, even sweet.
We have five remarkable clergy in our Senior Rabbi Angela Buchdahl, Rabbis Mo Salth, Ari Lorge and Stephanie Kolin, and Cantor Julia Cadrain. We're blessed by their simchas this year – Stephanie's baby, Ari's upcoming wedding, and Julia's engagement – huge mazel tovs to all.
We are soon going to be welcoming a new Senior Cantor, Daniel Mutlu, from Houston. I don't want to overstate his talent and warmth, but suffice it to say that all of us could not be more excited about what he's adding to our stellar team. We're also immensely grateful to Cantor Cadrain for holding down the fort with such professionalism, talent and grace during the time we were without a senior cantor. Thank you so much, Julia. And a shout-out must be given to our amazing Israeli guest cantor. Shani Ben-Or has been a beautiful contributor to music at Central and we are so glad you are staying another year.
Marcia Caban has completed her first year as our Executive Director. We undeniably put a huge amount on her plate from the get-go, but she has risen to every challenge and already brought fresh eyes to old challenges. I can't say enough about her wise stewardship – not just in the areas of finance, governance, and attention to our physical plant, but when it comes to staff development and accountability. It's been a pleasure to work so closely with her.
The LCLJ religious school, under Rabbi Rebecca Rosenthal, is humming with project-based learning – a new approach to teaching our Jewish texts and traditions which has already resulted in more engaging, creative endeavors, and will hopefully yield more mastery and ownership when it comes to connecting the next generation to Jewish life.
The nursery school under Cindy Grebow has a great, happy gang of parents and toddlers – they're a mood enhancer just to glimpse in the hallway. The school had another year of successful exmissions to kindergarten and a lively and creative benefit this year, which raised significant funds for the new, much-needed roof playground, which I hope you'll all visit when it's done. The special announcement is that Central is starting a summer camp for the first time, and enrollment is already robust.
On the adult learning front, you'll hear more from Rabbi Buchdahl, but I can speak personally and say that last fall's Elul initiative, conceived by Rabbi Nicole Auerbach – for which so many of us joined or created small groups to engage in chesbon hanefesh – "accounting of the soul" – the front-loading of atonement which is encouraged by our tradition before the new year arrives – this was one of the most meaningful things I've ever been part of. (I hope you'll consider joining or forming a group next fall when it happens again.) I can also vouch for the excellence of the three panels we hosted on Enduring Disagreements, which waded into sensitive waters of this political moment with courage and evenhandedness. We should all be proud of our Senior Rabbi's preparation and nimbleness when it came to her moderating all three fascinating discussions.
We continue to have percolating small group engagement and the number will expand next year.
We continue to have thoughtful programming on Israel, thanks to Rabbi Marion Lev-Cohen in particular, including a very successful interfaith trip to Israel, and we will be TK in the coming year.
Rabb Lisa Rubin continues to engage and inspire new Jews. We will be expanding the Exploring Judaism program to accommodate the demand and its excellence. You'll be hearing more about that in the fall.
Rabbi Mo Salth continues to be our Comforter-in-Chief, among his many other gifts and responsibilities. I know you all share my appreciation for his extra sensitivity and care when it comes to the toughest life cycles.
Rabbi Ari Lorge has expertly taken the reins on Community Organizing – known here as Central in Action – while Rabbi Kolin is on maternity leave. And he continues to connect our 20s and 30s members – a population that would otherwise be somewhat untethered to our community and our tradition.
Rabbi Stephanie Kolin had two babies this year – one an actual tiny adorable human girl, Raviva, and the other: the birth of the first Central in Action win: the raising of the age of criminal responsibility to 18 from 16. It was quite uplifting to see the hundreds that turned out for the Gov. Cuomo evening in March, and though the Raise the Age initiative was already on its way to crossing the finish line in the state legislature, we were told how decisive were the faith groups that weighed in – with careful, dogged activism – during the home stretch.
Our physical plant is in beautiful condition, but is undeniably and literally high-maintenance. A lot goes into keeping our beloved sanctuary and the community house in fighting form. I want to acknowledge our facilities director, Jeff Dorn, who has been a steady hand on the tiller and also a great support to the breakfast program – for which we serve 200 meals per week at dawn. Jeff is always there.
We will be refurbishing the synagogue front steps this summer and upgrading the AC system.
We will be adding metal detectors for every Shabbat and High Holy Day services, not because there has been any cause for concern at Central, but because tighter security has become standard practice at every major New York Jewish institution, not to mention Madison Square Garden.
The Audio Visual report! From trusted Jesse Lauter – you all see him in the back of the sanctuary on Friday evenings; he's the one with the overgrown beard.
And there are some further exciting developments coming next month so stay tuned!
So much of what makes Central effective and reliable is unseen and unsung. Our nursery and LCLJ teachers, our maintenance and security team, our admin staff across the street. I hope you'll join me in thanking them for the dedicated work they do and how well they do it.
And finally a note of personal gratitude. May 31 marks the beginning of my final year as your president and I could not feel more privileged to work with Rabbi Buchdahl, Marcia Caban and their respective remarkable teams, and to have gotten to know and value a congregation that has honestly deepened my own sense of Jewish family, and how precious and unlikely that is in today's times. Thank you.
We've entered a new chapter in our story – B'midbar. B'midbar in hebrew literally means in the wilderness, but the book is known in English as Numbers because it begins with a census of the Israelite people. The counting of all the Israelite community was an important way of taking stock of who was there, which tribes they represented and who were able bodied enough to contribute to the community. The Hebrew for taking a census is Se'u et Rosh, which literally means "lift the head." This prompted a rabbinic commentary from Menachem Nachum of Chernobyl to say, "let the Israelites hold their heads high in pride." Taking count is a way of helping a community feel pride in what they've accomplished.
I would like to begin a review of our year with a census of sorts – retelling of the story that our numbers tell of where our community is. And i hope it will help you feel proud of our year in numbers:
Start at the beginning of the life cycle…
43 new babies born in our community.
410 Kids enrolled in LCLJ to date, up from 320 this time last year – putting us on track to be over 700 students in LCLJ. Over 40 kids in our brand new EC summer camp.
30 students in Confirmation class who traveled to Spain and will lead our Erev shavuot service this Tuesday night.
136 Students in the EJ class this year with 40 conversions.
Over 740 adults engaged in some kind of sustained learning, not one-off speakers, but weekly learning in Melton, EJ, iEngage, Small groups or a Bible or Talmud class!
500 1:1 conversations as part of our listening campaign.
1000 People of different faiths who came to the Raise the Age Action with Governor Cuomo and helped raised the age of criminal responsibility this year.
We hit Several hundred thousand viewers for our HHD services, from over 100 countries.
More than doubling of our wait list since the HHD to over 500 families.
These are numbers we can feel proud of. But our congregation is so much more than the numbers. It is important that each person feels they are not just numbered, but known, noticed, and needed. As part of this effort, this coming year we are putting our energies into expanding our Core group initiative and double the number of people participating in these lay-led small groups at Central in the coming year. This large congregation is made intimate by having a small group of congregants you meet in a sustained way, with whom you learn and celebrate and grow spiritually. You will hear more at the HHD's but we hope that each of you will find your core community within the congregation.
This book is not only Numbers, but B'midbar, the wilderness. It is an apt name for what it feels like right now in our national and spiritual landscape – we are in unchartered territory. These months since the Election I've seen a level of activism, outrage, vulnerability, polarization and agitation like I've never seen. It has meant some harder conversations I have had with members in the last 6 months than all 10 years prior. There are those who want Central to do more, speak out more, and others who want Central to remain a sanctuary.
It has caused important soul searching for me and our senior leadership and lay leaders about the primary mission of Central in these times and where our Jewish values call us to act. I affirm that we are first and foremost a spiritual home for our community. We will continue to prioritize caring for those who are sick or struggling, comforting our mourners, educating our children, seeding and sustaining a love for Israel, celebrating our milestones and observing Shabbat and the seasons of our Jewish calendar. Our synagogue is uniquely privileged to share in these holy acts which form the sacred fabric of our Jewish lives.
And we will also find ways to live out Torah in the public arena where our Jewish values call us to act, and speak out, in thoughtful conversation with you and our leadership.
I continue to be proud of the diversity of this congregation – it is its strength. We need to lean into the many varied views of this congregation so we exercise those muscles for constructive disagreement, and respectful dialogue. If we can do this here, we can model how this can be done in the wider Jewish community and in our city and country. We began this process with the initiative – Enduring Disagreements – where we heard from speakers such as David Harris, Jonathan Haidt, Yehuda Kurtzer, and Rabia Chaudry. And we had 100 congregants engage in sustained practice over the Omer period to prepare themselves for the kinds of conversations we want to have – in the political realm, in issues of justice and regarding Israel.
Speaking of Israel – we are in new territory regarding Israel as well. Just yesterday was Yom Yerushalayim, Jerusalem day – marking the day, 50 years ago yesterday, where we celebrated Israel's control of the Old City upon the victory of the 6 day war. 50 years ago, Israelis and Jews around the world celebrated the reunification of Jerusalem for the first time in 2000 years with unequivocal pride and joy. 50 years later, the ramifications of the war and an continued presence in the West Bank for 50 years has taken its toll on Israel, on the Palestinian people residing there and on American Jewish relationship with Israel. I continue to affirm our unconditional support for the State of Israel, while we make sure to engage in efforts that can help Israel realize its aspirations for a safe and peaceful resolution to this conflict.
There is still so much in the world that feels unstable beneath us – rising anti-semitism at home and in Europe, rising anti-israel sentiments, especially among younger generations, recent terror attacks including the the one this week in Manchester at a concert filled with children. These acts shake our confidence. But I think this is where our community has found even more comfort and strength and hope in being together. Wherever we go, it's eternally Egypt. But the winding way to that promise passes through the wilderness. We are in that wilderness now – but we will work towards the promise of a world redeemed. And together, we will do our part to help get us there.

Camperships are developed to help provide life-changing camping experiences for Scouts who, because of financial challenges, may not otherwise be able to attend one of the camps or events. Contributions are sought after with an emphasis on making sure every Scout has the chance to go to camp, changing their lives through recreation, friendship, and experiences which will cultivate skills and values needed for success in the future.
We urge your assistance in applying for camperships for youth who could not attend camp without financial assistance.
In keeping with the philosophy of "pay your own way", each youth should pay a portion of the fee. Camperships are awarded based primarily on need. The more information the campership committee has about the Scout's particular need, the better.The Council also reserves the right to consider the unit's participation in Council administered product sales as demonstrating a concerted effort to raise these funds. The family and unit should also contribute to the cost of the camp experience.

New Video Shows Curiosity's View of Mars Landing
Just in case you want to get back in line for the jet-fueled roller-coaster ride that was Curiosity's landing on Mars … we now have video!
Not yet 48 hours after NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory chronicled Curiosity's descent to the Red Planet, we can watch the lo-fi video from the rover's point of view.
As it fell toward the planet's surface, Curiosity's Mars Descent Imager, or MARDI, captured video of the landing sequence. The camera rocks back and forth as the probe sways underneath its supersonic parachute and shakes as the rocket engines fire. MARDI also has a high-resolution video of the landing, as well as video of the surrounding terrain, but it won't be available until more data is received from the rover. Maybe it has something to do with the millions of miles that data has to travel.

Nigerian laureate Wole Soyinka lashes out
Even by Nigeria's raucous standards, it has been a frenzied few weeks here - a resilient nation galvanised by mass protests against the removal of fuel subsidies, and wrenched apart by the increasingly violent actions of the Islamist militant group, Boko Haram.
On a steamy morning in Lagos this week, I went to see Nigeria's Nobel laureate Wole Soyinka - a man who manages to be simultaneously irascible and avuncular - to get his perspective.
"I ceased using words like optimism and pessimism a long time ago," he warned me.
He had been giving a speech to a room full of uniformed Lagos students on the subject of human rights, during which he sought to contrast the twin, and sometimes fiercely contradictory, demands of peace and justice.
"The human hankering for equity," he called it with a nod to the mass protests that engulfed the country this month after President Goodluck Jonathan doubled - then almost un-doubled - most people's shopping bills overnight.
Like any sensible commentator on Nigeria, Mr Soyinka refused to buy into some grand scheme of success or failure.
He lashed out liberally - at the "madness" of Boko Haram's escalating "secessionist" violence and the "very real risk of disintegration" now threatening the nation.
"The government has got to take some very drastic action to contain this," he said, stressing the increasingly international dimension to "a very well-organised insurrection".
He was equally harsh on Nigeria's lavishly overpaid legislators: "We're being eviscerated by the maintenance of a top-heavy constitution… that breeds corruption" and a "warped and unworkable" centralised presidential system.
Instead of a cacophony of "monologues, we need to call for a national dialogue", he said.
Concerted move for change
But with the same breath, Mr Soyinka was celebrating the success of the recent fuel subsidy protests that forced President Jonathan to make a humiliating reversal.
"What we saw last week was not a process of disintegration. It strengthened society.
"Very few people have seen Nigerian people on the move like that - not asking for a change of government - just asking for equity, asking for the strengthening of economic and social justice.
"Sure it will [make a difference]. Government will see that society can mobilise - we've seen a concerted move for change."
Over the past week, in the slums and the suburbs of Lagos, from diplomats and businessmen, and in mosques and churches in the north of Nigeria, I have heard a similar, ambiguous chorus of fury, elation and uncertainty.
Nobody seems to believe things are beyond repair, but few buy into the simplistic notion of "Africa Rising" that so many Western investment firms are furiously peddling.
I will write more in the coming days - in the meantime I am signing off from a super-fast 3G connection in the back of a car trapped in one of Lagos's still notorious traffic jams, after spending a fascinating morning with the legendary musician and activist Femi Kuti.

A medical professional does have the right to refuse to testify in court regarding a patient's medical records, but...
...the patient has the right to subpoena the medical professional to appear.
While this is an option, it is not always the best solution.
A doctor who feels that they've been "forced" or "pressured" into appearing in court by a subpoena may be uncooperative and not an ideal witness.
Recently, we were faced with a situation where one of our clients had actually been presented with a document to sign that released the treating doctor from providing testimony in a court case under any circumstances.
Certainly, this doctor may have outstanding credentials and may provide excellent care to patients, but there can be grave consequences to a personal injury case if an injured person receives medical care from a doctor with this mentality.
It can hurt your claim if your doctor won't testify in court on the specifics of your injuries. The opinions about the care a client who is suffering from a personal injury needs during their case, opinions about that person's future care, and specifics of the costs and expenses associated with that care are all details that typically are decided by the treating doctor.
You can imagine the problems that can arise if you have been treated for several years while paying the medical bills or your health insurance costs and expecting to need care in the future, and then the doctor who has been managing your care during that time refuses to participate in the legal process.
If there is a need for immediate care but not emergency room care and the only available resource to pay the expense of the medical care is a person's personal injury protection or no fault insurance benefits, then an Urgent Care Clinic is a solid option from both a medical and legal standpoint.
Typically, urgent care clinics cost less than a hospital emergency room, a person can be treated very quickly and efficiently, and it can save an injured person money in both the short and long-run. In this case, most Urgent Care Clinics will not ask patients to waive the doctors' professional testimony, and if they do, it may be worthwhile to subpoena the medical professional based on the fact that the patient had limited choices and sought care so that they did not have to suffer further with their injury.

Basic recipe for Iced Pumpkin Cookies that makes such a moist cookie it melts in your mouth! Easy Thanksgiving Day dessert idea.
Hello! Before it's too late I want to share a fall-inspired cookie recipe but there's a little story to tell first. I used to have a recipe card for Iced Pumpkin Cookies in my recipe box. It was old and stained but still readable. I know it was there like I know my own name.
When I went to look for it a few days ago it was gone. I sat and looked through every single card, slip of paper and torn magazine page in my box. Not there. So…I wasn't sure what to do. After all, that was MY pumpkin cookie recipe. I found the next best thing in an old cook book that was my grandmother's. It's called Betty Crocker's Cooky Book.
Sure enough, there on page 30, was this basic, very-close-to-my-own pumpkin cookie recipe. I made just a few updates and left out the raisins. Here's what I came up with.
- 1 1/2 c. packed brown sugar
- 1/2 c. shortening
- 2 eggs
- 1 15 oz. pumpkin
- 2 3/4 c. Flour
- 1 T. Baking Powder
- 1 t. Cinnamon
- 1/2 t. nutmeg
- 1/2 t. salt
- 1 c. chopped walnuts
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- With an electric mixer, beat first 4 ing.
- In a separate bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt.
- Slowly add dry ing. to pumpkin mixture.
- Beat well. Fold in walnuts by hand.
- With a 2 in. scoop, put onto cookie sheets.
- Bake 12 - 15 min.
- Cookies are done when tops crack and bottoms are lightly browned.
- Ice when completely cool.
- Icing: Stir 1/2 c. softened butter with 1 1/2 c. powdered sugar. Add 2 T. milk. Stir until smooth. Add more milk, 1 T. at a time, until desired consistency.
These cookies are simply amazing and so moist they almost melt in your mouth. You could leave the icing off but honestly, it adds the perfect finishing touch. No weird ingredients either. If you have a can of pumpkin, you are good to go.
If you are looking for another easy pumpkin treat here's my Pumpkin Bread. This recipe is very simple too and makes enough to freeze or give away. It's also so moist it will melt in your mouth!
Thanks for stopping by…hope your weekend was perfect!

text: Jeff Flowers on December 12, 2013 1 Comment For many families, winter is a frigid time of year, full of extreme weather and very low temperatures. Unfortunately, the cost of heating your home using your central air can be rather expensive, especially when you think about all the empty rooms that you're paying to keep warm, yet aren't using. These extra energy costs can be worrisome for families on a budget or trying to lower their utility costs. Thankfully all is not lost! By following a supplemental heating strategy in your home, you will be able to save on your overall energy costs, without sacrificing your overall comfort levels. Infrared heaters are another great choice to help you accomplish this. They are a comparatively inexpensive yet effective way to keep your home or office warm. How Infrared Heaters Work In a nutshell, an infrared heater or "heat lamp" uses a process called electromagnetic radiation, in which an entity with a higher temperature transfers heat energy to an entity with a lower temperature. While the term electromagnetic radiation might sound scary or dangerous, it is perfectly safe for use in infrared heaters, which use it on a small scale. The heater actually projects out infrared light, which we humans lack the ability to see. Though it is invisible, things like our skin, clothes and furniture absorb the light, and heat up. In general, objects in the direct line of an infrared heater (infrared light projection) heat up very quickly, while surrounding objects will take slightly longer to warm up and raise the overall temperature of the area. Remembering that infrared heat is actually light, some larger and more industrial versions of these heaters use a type of gold coating on the tube that reflects the radiation. The element Gold has exceptional oxidation resistance, and reflects approximately 95% of infrared light. This effectively doubles the amount of radiation projected outward. Types of Infrared Heaters Infrared heaters vary on the type of fuel or energy needed to power them. Most personal infrared heaters are electric, but propane and natural gas-powered are fairly common as well. In any case, these types of heaters are extremely efficient, and project nearly 100% of the heat they generate. These heaters also vary on the type of material used in their construction. Larger heaters are usually metal or ceramic, and are used mostly for commercial or industrial purposes. Personal sized infrared heaters can be metal, ceramic, or made of different types of composite plastics that can withstand high temperatures. Many personal heaters are made with a combination of these materials, with metal being the most common for the reflective material used to reflect and intensify the heat. As far as aesthetics are concerned, rest assured that infrared heaters have made great strides to fit into interior décor. Recently, many personal versions have been made to look very stylish and complement their surroundings. Still another way to classify different types of infrared heaters is the material used for the filament. The most effective and most common filament material used for the electric-style heaters is tungsten. Tungsten has the highest melting point of any metal, which means it can stay strong and withstand extremely hot temperatures. Alternative filament materials used for lower-temperatures include various alloys of iron, carbon aluminum and chromium. Carbon filament in particular is becoming more popular among personal infrared heaters due to its ability to heat up very quickly. Advantages Making the decision to use an infrared heater comes with several advantages over central heating and even other types of personal heaters. Fast, safe, directed heating. Silent: They just radiate light. No reduction in oxygen or humidity levels, which can dry out skin and sinuses. Infrared heat promotes healthy blood circulation. No UV radiation. No pollutants or toxic byproducts. No long fuel lines, open flames or carbon-type combustion. Extremely efficient and inexpensive to operate: Almost 100% of the heat created is transferred. Very little maintenance – No moving parts, no motor to wear down, no air filters or lubrication required. Infrared Heater Safety Tips Although infrared heaters are considered very safe amongst customers and professionals alike, they still emit heat and are extremely hot at very close ranges. This means caution should be exercised if the heater is operating around children and pets. Much like any other type of heater, proper safety precautions should always be followed when operating. This would include avoid leaving your heater on when you go to bed or leave the room for an extended period of time. Also, be aware that the type of heat produced by these heaters is started and stopped very quickly, as it is literally switching a light on and off. Lastly, remember that these types of heaters are largely directional and focused. A rise in ambient temperature may take some time to occur, due to surrounding objects absorbing the light and heating up. Why You Should Consider Using One When it comes to using a personal heater to keep you and your family warm, you have many choices to choose from. And for the most part, they will all work great at achieving its purpose. Infrared heaters are a great choice because they require very little maintenance and are extremely quiet. The heat they produce is gentle, cost-effective and very energy-efficient. You are guaranteed to stay warm and save money with this type of heater.

Ever wonder how to grow your list of newsletter subscribers the right way? Well, we have an answer, folks. In his latest E-Newsletter on E-Newsletters, Michael Katz answers the question, "How do we grow our list?" He says:
There's no magic formula, but it occurred to me the other day that one of my long-time clients – Brad Howe of Financial Managers – is constantly adding new names to his newsletter subscriber list.
So I asked him what he was doing. Here's what he said:
"As I exchange business cards with folks, usually after we've talked for 5-10 minutes, I almost always say that I'd like to add them to my newsletter list. I go on to say that I think they'll find it useful and maybe a little unusual–not the regular accounting/financespeak. If there's any hesitation, I quickly add that they can readily cancel if they think that it doesn't apply to what they're doing.
"You just gotta think 'newsletter' every time you reach for your business cards."
How do you grow your newsletter list?

Specttrum News (Kulbir Singh Kalsi): Though Northern Region considered as the 'Food Bowl of the Country' contributes as much as 30 per cent towards agriculture and allied sector in the GDP of India, major agricultural states like Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal and Punjab lag way behind the national average of growth rate, which is a cause of serious concern.
As far as growth of the agriculture & allied sectors (CAGR 2004-05 to 2013-14) in the Northern Region is concerned, Himachal Pradesh and Rajasthan recorded higher rate than that of India, while, key state such as Punjab fared poorly", according to a CII press release.
The yield of food grains in most of the states from the Northern Region has been significantly above the national average. However, the region, as a whole, has recorded a lower Compounded Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) as compared to the national figure during the period 2003-04 to 2012-13.
"Against this backdrop and to take Indian Agriculture to the next level, especially in North, Confederation of Indian industry (CII) will host the 11th CII Agro Tech 2014 from 22-25 November, 2014 at Parade Ground, Sector 17, here in Chandigarh", announced CII.
The CII Agro Tech 2014 will be formally inaugurated on 22 Nov by Parkash Singh Badal, Chief Minister of Punjab; Manohar Lal Khattar, Chief Minister of Haryana and Brad Wall, Premier of Saskatchewan (Canada) in the presence of Ashish Bahuguna, Secretary - Agriculture, Government of India and Siraj Hussain, Secretary - Food Processing Industries, Government of India.
India's Premier Biennial Agro Technology & Business Fair – the CII Agro Tech 2014 will feature 5 International Conferences, country specific sessions by participants from Africa, Germany and Pakistan. There would also be farmers', scientists' & industry delegation visits from Pakistan, Gambia, New Zealand, and exhibitors from 10 countries and 15 Indian states, with the attempt to take the Indian agriculture to the next level.
Much in sync with the Modi Government's thrust on improving agriculture productivity, enhance farmer's earnings, increase Agriculture's (falling share) in India's GDP and attaining self reliance, Agro Tech would aim to bridge the gap between the farming community, scientists and latest innovations, practices and technologies available both nationally and globally inagriculture and bring them on a common platform for the benefit of the farmers with more than 200 new launches.
The CII Agro Tech 2014 is expecting participation of approximately 50000 farmers from states including Punjab, Haryana, Bihar, Himachal Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Kerala, Rajasthan, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Odisha, Madhya Pradesh, West Bengal, Bihar, Assam, Gujarat and Tamil Nadu etc, and participants from countries like Bangladesh, China, Canada, Pakistan, Nepal and New Zealand are also expected to join in the mega fair.
With such huge farmer participation, CII Agro Tech 2014 is expected to play a critical role in revolutionising the Indian Agri sector in all aspects whether it be technology interventions, water management, productivity, soil testing, farm mechanisation or key policy issues relevant to the entire value chain - from farm to market. With a large domestic and international presence, including 36 international exhibitors and 126 domestic exhibitors, the Agri Fair will host 8 concurrent shows including Farm Tech Show, Food Expo, Food Tech, Good Earth, Implementex, Water & Irrigation Management, Livestock Expo, States of India Pavilion and International Pavilion amongst others", according to CII.
Dr Pawan Goenka, Chairman, CII Agro Tech 2014 & Executive Director, Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd. shared that "Through CII Agro Tech 2014, we aim to showcase the latest technological innovations geared to take Indian agriculture to the next level. It will also focus on policy issues by bringing all key stakeholders - governments, institutes, scientists, associations, farmers and the industry onto a single platform thereby helping in attracting higher investments in agriculture and related sectors".
"CII Agro Tech will help in attaining the objective of 'more crop per drop' laid out by our Hon'ble Prime Minister Mr Narendra Modi by showcasing the best practices and most advanced procedures & technologies being applied in pockets to a vast number of farmers from all across India present at single platform", highlighted Dr Goenka.
"CII Agro Tech 2014 will also feature special 'Kisan Goshthees', a value added platform for farmers including sessions with scientists and experts to enlighten them with some of the best practices in areas like protected agriculture & precision farming, climate change, water & soil management, use of solar energy for agriculture, organic farming and reducing pesticide usage, Agro processing & marketing, optimum use of Agri inputs, farm mechanization etc which would help remove the existing bottlenecks like lack of knowledge on latest irrigation methods, on proper use of fertilizers, soil testing and about the latest farm mechanization techniques", further informed Dr Goenka.
Sharing CII's agenda on Indian Agriculture, Mr Salil Singhal, Co Chairman, CII National Council on Agriculture & Chairman, PI Industries shared that "Key focus of CII Agro Tech, scheduled from22-25 November at Chandigarh would be to enhance productivity per hectare and showcase the latest methods and best practices in agriculture in various aspects including irrigation, inputs, farm mechanization etc".
"We are World number 1 in productivity of various fruits like grapes, banana, papaya etc per hectare. But we can be no. 1 in various other vegetables and fruits too", added Mr Singhal.
Via the fair, the aim is to create a platform of development which will help place India as a global player. This fair provides a critical platform to domestic farmers to imbibe global practices and develop a greater learning of the latest technological innovations being undertaken across international markets. Providing an important learning curve to Indian stakeholders, the fair will work closely with central and state governments to formulate policies which will help accelerate domestic agricultural production.
The CII Agro Tech 2014 will also feature International Conferences on Horticulture Value Chain, Animal Husbandry, Innovations in Agriculture, World View of India as a Food Basket and Food Processing, Storage & Distribution; and Country specific Session on 'Business Opportunities in Africa.
The fair is also expected to have a Roundtable on 'India-Pakistan Agriculture Trade', along with another CEOs Roundtable with Union Agriculture Minister, Union Food Processing Minister & Secretary – Agriculture and Food Processing Ministries, Government of India.
Some of the other interesting features of CII Agro Tech 2014 include Interesting live display of Automatic Feed System for Poultry and Dairy Farm Development Mobile Vans at Livestock Expo, Live display of Fish Farming, Food Tech with interesting display of 'Vito' Oil Filtration System, Interesting displays on Integrated Agri Business Model for Waste Land Development and benefits derived from Paddy Straw Composting, Live display of Soilless Farming (Hydroponics) and functional Solar Pump, Animal Identification system (RFIDs), cooling solutions for Livestock, Veterinary homoeopath products, Implementex displaying digital panel for Tractors and Solar Energy Systems, Proposal to launch newer & efficient model of tractors and display of foldable water tank, Rice Transplanters, Vertical Garden at Good Earth Show.
