A steam dummy or dummy engine, in the United States and Canada, was a steam locomotive enclosed in a wooden box structure made to resemble a passenger railroad car. Steam dummies had some popularity in the first decades of railroading in the U.S., from the 1830s but passed from favor after the American Civil War.

Overview
It was thought that the more familiar appearance of a coach presented by a steam dummy, as compared to a conventional steam locomotive, would be less likely to frighten horses when these trains had to operate in city streets. Later it was realized that it was actually the noise and motion of the operating gear of a steam engine that frightened horses, rather than the unfamiliar outlines of a steam engine.

Production

Baldwin Locomotive Works manufactured steam dummies or steam motors for many American tramways. Baldwin exported to places such as Sydney, Australia - where they were known as 'steam tram motors' - and New Zealand, where two, both built in 1891, survive at museums today.

H. K. Porter, Inc. preferred the term "noiseless steam street motor" in their 20th-century catalog, although they used the term "dummy" (in quotes) in the 19th century.  In the 20th century, they offered 0-4-0 and 0-4-2 wheel arrangements.  In the 19th century, they also offered a double-ended dummy with a 2-4-2 wheel arrangement.  Porter recommended using anthracite or coke as a fuel in order to avoid smoke.  Side flaps to hide the mechanism were optional.  Operating speeds between   were reported by 19th-century users.

In the UK, the Great Western Railway equipped two engines each from the 2021 and 517 classes with coach bodywork between 1906 and 1911.

Valerie Day (born November 20, 1959) is an American pop and jazz singer. Born in Portland, Oregon, United States, she is a fourth-generation Oregonian, and grew up in a musical family. She was the lead singer and a founding member of the 1980s dance band Nu Shooz, along with her husband John Smith.

Day's performances with Nu Shooz had mixed reviews. She and Smith were credited with "rewriting the book" on Portland's R&B sound. One reviewer at the Seattle Times described her as having a "tough but perky wholesome image," and praised her dancing and conga playing, but opined that she over-used a certain vocal hook, and was reluctant to step out as the star of the group.

More recently, Day has taken on other musical genres. In the late 1990s she was a featured singer in the Woody Hite Big Band. She recorded an album of duets with pianist Tom Grant in 2005.

Also in 2005, Day won a contest to have an image of her lips used in the new corporate logo for Portland's Hot Lips Pizza, as part of the company's 21st anniversary.

From 2010 to 2014, Day was an adjunct professor at Portland State University where she taught Contemporary/Jazz Voice.

Youreka is an Indian film director, lyricist and screenwriter who has worked on Tamil films.

Career
Initially starting his career as a lyricist, Youreka made his debut as a filmmaker with Madurai Sambavam, a rustic action film starring Harikumar, Anuya Bhagvath and Karthika, where NDTV made their first production venture in the Tamil film industry. The film earned mixed reviews, with a critic from The Hindu noting "if only Youreka had paid attention to the screenplay and worked more on the climax" but "instead he seems to have been content with loading the hero with action scenes". Youreka next moved on to work on Sivappu Enakku Pidikkum (2017), a tale about a writer who is determined to put an end to child sexual abuse. Featuring himself in the lead role and as a producer, Youreka signed on actress Sandra Amy and completed the film by mid-2014. However, the film went through production troubles and was only released several years later in January 2017. His latest release was Thoppi (2015) starring newcomers Murali Ram and Raksha Raj. The film was also marred with a spat towards release, with the director complaining that the producer cut scenes considerably in the second half without his knowledge. In their review, the Times of India noted "perhaps, the director's cut was more engaging" but "for now, we have to settle for a film that is modestly engaging but doesn't fulfil its initial promise".

In April 2017, he began working on a project titled Kattu Paya Sir Intha Kaali featuring Jaivanth and Ira Agarwal.

Matthew David Barber (born 16 February 1981) is a British politician. He is currently Thames Valley Police and Crime Commissioner. He previously served as Leader of the Council on Vale of White Horse District Council and Deputy Police and Crime Commissioner for the Thames Valley Police.

Political career 
Matthew Barber was first elected to Vale of White Horse District Council on 1 May 2003 as Councillor for the Faringdon & The Coxwells Ward. Whilst the Conservatives were in opposition he became Group Whip and subsequently opposition finance spokesman. In 2004 he was elected unopposed to Faringdon Town Council. He was re-elected to the District Council in 2007.

In 2009 Barber became Leader of the Opposition following the resignation of Melinda Tilley as Conservative Group Leader. Following his marriage in 2010 he moved to West Hanney and stood for election in the Hanneys Ward. At the 2011 local elections the Conservatives took control of the District Council and Barber became Leader of the council.

After graduating from university he worked briefly for John Randall, then Member of Parliament for Uxbridge before returning to Oxfordshire.
