# John Timmons

John Timmons JP (14 May 1890 – 21 November 1964) was a British coalminer and Labour Party politician.

## Early life

Born in North Lanarkshire on 14 May 1890, Timmons attended St Aloysius School, Chapelhall. Following in the family tradition, Timmons went down the mines at the age of 12. He worked at the coal face but studied in his spare time, gaining his mine manager's certificate. He was subsequently promoted to the job of checkweighman, and studied at Coatbridge Technical College. An active member of the Miners' Federation, Timmons joined the Labour Party in 1911. He was Branch Secretary of his union for 30 years. Timmons was married in Ireland to Emily Connolly from Newry, County Down. He had 7 children, four sons and three daughters. Timmons' eldest son Patrick was lost in action over the North Sea, while serving with the RAF on 14 January 1942.

## Advancement

In 1938 Timmons was elected to Lanarkshire County Council. He had several local administrative responsibilities, including being on the panel of referees for the Ministry of Labour, and a member of the advisory committee to the Assistance Board.

## Parliament

Timmons was elected as Labour Member of Parliament for Bothwell at the 1945 general election. It was difficult for Scottish MPs to find lodgings in post-war London, which had been badly affected by the Blitz. Timmons found accommodation at the home of the Mayor and Mayoress of Lambeth in Denny Crescent, Kennington with other Scottish MPs including John Rankin (politician). At Westminster Timmons rarely spoke, nevertheless as a former coal miner Timmons spoke at length on the industry in debates. He was a member of the left-wing faction who disapproved of the continuation of National Service and supported Aneurin Bevan in the early 1950s. A Roman Catholic of Irish descent, in 1949 Timmons voted against the Ireland Bill which gave the Parliament of Northern Ireland a veto against the end of partition.

## Later career

His rebellious tendencies eased later in the 1950s, although in 1957 he joined a group calling for no retreat on the policy of nationalisation. He played his part in ensuring that the contract for the Queen Elizabeth 2 liner went to the Clyde shipyards rather than the Tyne. Timmons further served the people of Lanarkshire as a magistrate and Justice of the Peace. Unwell in the early 1960s, he announced his intention not to contest the next election in 1962 and retired from Parliament at the 1964 general election, dying only a month later.

# Paresis

In medicine, paresis (/pəˈriːsɪs, ˈpærəsɪs/), compound word from Greek Ancient Greek: πάρεσις, (πᾰρᾰ- “beside” + ἵημι “let go, release”), is a condition typified by a weakness of voluntary movement, or by partial loss of voluntary movement or by impaired movement. When used without qualifiers, it usually refers to the limbs, but it can also be used to describe the muscles of the eyes (ophthalmoparesis), the stomach (gastroparesis), and also the vocal cords (vocal cord paresis).
Neurologists use the term paresis to describe weakness, and plegia to describe paralysis in which all voluntary movement is lost. The term paresis comes from the Ancient Greek: πάρεσις 'letting go' from παρίημι 'to let go, to let fall'.

## Types
### Limbs

* Monoparesis – One leg or one arm
* Paraparesis – Both legs
* Hemiparesis – The loss of function to only one side of the body
* Triparesis – Three limbs. This can either mean both legs and one arm, both arms and a leg, or a combination of one arm, one leg, and face
* Double hemiparesis – All four limbs are involved, but one side of the body is more affected than the other
* Tetraparesis – All four limbs
* Quadriparesis – All four limbs, equally affected
* These terms frequently refer to the impairment of motion in multiple sclerosis and cerebral palsy

### Other

* Gastroparesis – impaired stomach emptying
* A form of ophthalmoplegia
* Spastic paresis – exaggerated tendon reflexes and muscle hypertonia
* In the past, the term was most commonly used to refer to "general paresis", which was a symptom of untreated syphilis. However, due to improvements in treatment of syphilis, it is now rarely used in this context.
# Old Government Building, Christchurch

The old Government Buildings are a heritage building in Christchurch, New Zealand. It was designed by Joseph Maddison in 1909 for use by government departments. It is a Category I heritage building listed with Heritage New Zealand.

## History

The building was designed to centralise various government departments in Christchurch that had previously been housed in the Canterbury Provincial Council Buildings and other rented spaces throughout the city. The Government Buildings opened in 1913 and housed various Government departments up until the 1980s. The last Government department to occupy the building was the Ministry of Works and Development. After being vacant for some time the building was threatened to be demolished in 1991. On 11 July 1991 the Christchurch City Council purchased the building from the government for $735,000. The council then sold it to the ‘Symphony Group’ in 1995 and it was converted into a hotel with the conditions to strengthen and conserve the building. It is now home to the Heritage Hotel Christchurch and the bar O.G.B.

# Malik Munawar Khan Awan

Malik Munawar Khan Awan ( ملک منور خان اعوان ) was a Major rank officer in the Pakistan Army, whose career had begun in the British Indian Army and included spells in the Imperial Japanese Army and the revolutionary Indian National Army that fought against the Allies in World War II where he commanded 2nd INA Guerrilla Battalion during famous Battle of Imphal. He received a gallantry award for his work during Operation Gibraltar in 1965.

## Early life

Munawar was born to a Muslim family of the Awan tribe in Chakwal, Punjab, British India. As a young boy, he was spotted winning an athletics race that he had entered on the spur of the moment and was nurtured by the British for a role in the army.

## Career

Awan was among those captured and made prisoner of war by Japanese forces while trying to defend Singapore in World War II. He learned the Japanese language while incarcerated and his fluency brought him to the attention of his captors. They moved him out of the prison camp and enlisted him in the Imperial Japanese Army, where he received special training.
When the Indian National Army, led by Subhas Chandra Bose, was formed in 1942, Awan joined its fight for Indian independence from British rule. He was captured by the Allied forces and returned to India to stand trial for treason at the end of World War II.
Awan was freed, along with other INA prisoners, when the Partition of India occurred. He moved to Pakistan and was invited to join the Pakistan Army by prime minister Liaquat Ali Khan. He then joined the Azad Kashmir Regular Forces (AKRF), which later became the Azad Kashmir Regiment.
Operation Gibraltar was launched in July 1965 with the aim of Pakistani infiltration of Jammu & Kashmir. Awan, who now held the rank of major, was involved in this, leading troops in heavy fighting at a pass near to Rajouri. He controlled an area of around 500 square miles for a period of three months and, according to Lt General Mahmud Ahmed in his book War 1965, Munawar enjoyed full support from the local population of the valley. By the time the Second Kashmir War ended, Munawar was in effective control of Rajouri valley and welcomed UN military observers who landed in Rajouri valley to monitor the ceasefire. However, after the Tashkent Agreement between India and Pakistan, he was ordered to withdraw his forces and return to Rawalpindi.
Awan was awarded the Sitara-i-Jurat for his actions in the Rajouri valley, and was also referred to as the "King of Rajouri" by Field Marshal Ayub Khan. He died a few years later.

## Memorials

Munawar Pass, a pass in Pir Panjal mountain range north of Pir ki Gali overlooking the town of Rajouri in the union territory of Kashmir was named after Major Munawar by the locals.

# United Nations Security Council Resolution 84

The United Nations Security Council Resolution 84, adopted on July 7, 1950, was the United Nations Security Council resolution which authorized the formation of the United Nations Command to provide military support for South Korea, following a North Korean invasion and offensive at the outbreak of the Korean War.
Having determined that the invasion of South Korea by forces from North Korea constituted a breach of the peace, the Council recommended that UN members assist South Korea in repelling the attack to restore peace and security to the area. The Council further recommended that all members providing military forces and other assistance to South Korea make them available under a unified command under the United States, and that the U.S. designate the commander of such forces and authorize said commander to use the flag of the United Nations at their discretion. Finally, The Council ordered the U.S. to provide it with reports as appropriate on the course of action taken by the unified command.
The resolution passed with the votes from the United Kingdom, the Republic of China, Cuba, Ecuador, France, Norway, and the United States. Egypt, India, and Yugoslavia abstained. The Soviet Union, a veto-wielding power, was absent, having been boycotting proceedings since January, in protest that the Republic of China and not the People's Republic of China held a permanent seat on the council. The Council President at the time was Norwegian Arne Sunde.

# God's Ark of Safety

39°38′02″N 78°55′47″W﻿ / ﻿39.633952°N 78.929622°W﻿ / 39.633952; -78.929622
God's Ark of Safety is a non-denominational Christian ministry in Frostburg, Maryland, United States, led by Pastor Everett Spence. On Easter, 1976, former Pastor Richard Greene began building a replica of Noah's Ark atop a prominent hillside along what is now Interstate 68 featuring a sign that announces to passing travelers: "Noah's Ark Being Rebuilt Here!" Ground was broken for the ark in September 1976 with over 3,000 tons of concrete. The foundation and earthwork were built to biblical proportions, around 450 by 75 by 45 feet, which is about one and a half football fields long.
As of February 2025, the structure is still just a frame.
The Ark is featured on the front cover and chapter 4 of Timothy Beal's book Roadside Religion: In Search of the Sacred, the Strange, and the Substance of Faith. In the book Scrambled Eggs at Midnight by Frostburg writer Brad Barkley, there is a reference to the Ark in the pre-chapter section listing places that one should see when traveling across the country. It is also mentioned in Barkley's story "The Way It's Lasted."
