Iraqi Christian Minority Trapped Without a Voice in Provincial Elections
By Amer Hedow :: Saturday, January 31, 2009 :: 46149 Views :: Law & Order, Government & Society
Mosul, IRAQ – "We have to go vote. Our love for our country makes us go and vote," says Ibtissam Bazzi, an Iraqi Christian woman eager to cast her vote. Christians in Iraq remain an oppressed minority and a group still under constant threat. With the provincial elections underway, Iraq's Christian minority find themselves between a rock and a hard place.
The Iraqi natives have faced centuries of violence. From conquering Arab armies, the first world war genocide of the Ottoman empire (present day Turkey), to mass killings from al-Qaida in Iraq and other Islamic extremists. Including the Kurds who have been slowly and systematically attempting to take and control land once owned by Christians.
In the northern city of Mosul and surrounding areas the Kurds have been using their own militia to sieze more of Iraq into their semiautonomous region. The issue came to the fore in Saturday's vote for members of ruling councils in most of Iraq's 18 provinces.
Although results are not expected for days or even weeks for that province, Kurds are expected to lose the dominance they have enjoyed here in Ninevah province since Sunni Arabs boycotted the last provincial election in 2005.
Early voting estimates say, Christians will get at least one paltry seat out of 37 council seats in the province, due to a token minority quota. But many Christians are divided about whether to back the Kurds or the Sunni Arabs in their struggle for domination in Ninevah and its capital city of Mosul.
The U.S. military believes continued Kurdish-Arab tension in the north poses one of the strongest challenges to ensuring long-lasting peace in Iraq now that Shiite-Sunni violence has ebbed
Raad Shaya, a 30-year-old Christian teacher who lives in the outlying town of Batnaya, said Christians face intimidation from both sides.
Islamic extremists recently threatened him and several Christian colleagues by placing a warning inside the minibus they used to commute to work.
"The Kurds are controlling the Christians right now," he said, lowering his voice after casting his ballot on Saturday. "There's also the threat from outside Islamic political parties. We're not targeted because we're a minority in the middle of everything," he added.
Fears spiked in the fall with a string of murders of Christians in Mosul, driving thousands of Christian families to leave their homes for the safety of Christian villages around the city. Most have drifted back but are still afraid.
"It's better at this point but we paid a high price for it," said Bassem Bello, the Christian mayor of Tel Kaif, a mixed Sunni Arab-Christian town near Mosul. "We're working very hard to make sure it doesn't happen again."
He declined to say who was behind the attacks, which claimed up to 16 lives by some counts. But he said the outgoing provincial council had failed to protect its people.
"Whenever something like this happens we lose families. They go abroad. This is the agenda. They want the original people of this country to leave," he said. "They have certain aspirations to take over what the Christians have in their areas. Also there are extremist Islamic groups."
The Kurds already have moved to stake their claim on the nearby hilly area known as the Ninevah Plains by establishing checkpoints manned by well-trained Kurdish security forces known as peshmerga.
The sunshine flag of the semiautonomous Kurdish region to the north also flies on the top of several buildings in the villages and towns that comprise the areas, including some of the schools that were used as polling stations on Saturday.
A U.S. official said Christians need the peshmerga for protection but most have stayed on the fence because they're afraid of choosing the losing side. He spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the issue.
Although the Kurds are expected to lose seats, they are hoping for a strong showing as a measure of support for their claims to disputed areas of Ninevah.
The Kurds also are seeking to incorporate the oil-rich city of Kirkuk in another province into their semiautonomous area, but the vote for a council there was delayed until later this year.
Christians have frequently been targeted since turmoil swept the country after the 2003 U.S.-led invasion.
Churches, priests and businesses of the generally prosperous, well-educated community have been attacked by militants who denounce Christians as pro-American "crusaders." The body of Paulos Rahho, the Chaldean Catholic archbishop of Mosul, also was found in March following his abduction by gunmen after a Mass.
Suvara Shamsun Haroun, a 25-year-old Christian woman who voted Saturday in Tel Kaif, pointed out that insurgents target all Iraqis "but sometimes they try to drive a wedge between the Arabs and the Christians."
Her mother Wirgania Shamwell expressed hope the Christian candidate chosen would help improve the situation.
"Hopefully the elections will bring security and a better future for Iraq and that's all we can hope for," she said. "Security is the main thing."

A pair of white and shiny teeth is not only attractive but also the reflection of a sound oral health. The teeth make an integral part of your appearance and the look of it can either enhance or steal away your attractiveness. However, truth is faced, most of us cannot sport that bright, white smile like the models and actors who seem to have bought all the credits for pearly white teeth, flashing gorgeous smiles like forever. Facing the facts, it is important to understand that like any other part of the body, the teeth too, need to be taken care of. Brushing our teeth twice a day is what most of us would say we do for healthy, white teeth but that, my friends, is only a small part of maintaining oral hygiene.
Baking Soda – Did you know that baking soda is one of the most efficient home remedies for giving your teeth that much-longed sparkling shine? Simply mix ¼ teaspoon of baking soda with your toothpaste and brush normally like you do. Rinse your mouth with lukewarm water. Can it get any simpler than that? Done occasionally, it will ensure you a sound oral health preventing plaques and tooth discoloration. To go more natural, you can brush your teeth with a combination of baking soda, lemon juice, and white vinegar to get sparkling white teeth in minutes.
Salt – Salt not only enhances the taste of foods but also whitens discolored teeth. Add some salt to your toothpaste or mix it with lemon juice and baking powder and rub onto your teeth. Do this once a week to help your teeth from discoloring. But take care not to overdo the remedy by using salt more frequently as it may harm the gums.
Hydrogen Peroxide – One of the most recommended home remedy for teeth whitening; this uses a paste of hydrogen peroxide and baking soda in 2:3 ratio. Mix two teaspoons of hydrogen peroxide in three teaspoons of baking soda and rub the mixture onto your teeth. Follow this up with your regular brushing regimen. Alternately, you can ditch the hassles of mixing chemicals and only buy a mouthwash containing hydrogen peroxide to get the same results.
Charcoal – An age-old remedy used by our ancestors when toothpaste was not as common as it is now. In the modern times, you can make a super-toothpaste by adding some powdered charcoal to your toothpaste. As you brush your teeth with this powerful paste, the crystals in the charcoal, brush away any yellow stains from the teeth. Follow it up with a rinse to witness your best white smile.
Carrot – Include a healthy salad of crunchy raw carrots on your diet to keep your teeth sparkling white and prevent plaques. The raw carrot stimulates the secretion of Saliva, which naturally cleanses the teeth. The vitamin A in the vegetable promotes stronger tooth enamel.
Apple – An apple a day may not keep away a doctor from every ailment as the famous saying goes, but, it may sure keep the dentist away! Scientists say that eating an apple daily ensures healthy, white teeth. The acidic properties of this vitamin-laden fruit scrub away the stains from your teeth, helping them keep white throughout.
Orange – Just before hitting the bed at night, rub some fresh orange peels all over your teeth and wake up to sparkling white teeth. The vitamin C that will glue onto your teeth and gums will work their ways through the nights to not only brighten the whiteness of your teeth but also, leave their anti-bacterial effect.
Lemon – Lemon being a natural bleach, finds many uses in natural beauty treatments. One such use is in dental bleaching. Take the fresh peel of a lemon and gently rub onto your teeth. Many beauty experts recommend mixing in some salt with lemon instead. Rinse your mouth following either remedy and repeat it twice a day for a couple of weeks. In either way, this lemon treatment is sure to help your clean off the yellow stains from your teeth for a bright, white smile.
Strawberry – Pulse some strawberries in the blender to a paste. Rub on this delicious paste on your teeth twice a day to naturally whiten yellow teeth. There is yet another DIY method which prescribes mixing the strawberry paste with baking soda. Brushing teeth with this mixture scrubs off the plaque accumulation in your teeth, giving you a brighter looking smile instantly.
Banana – Using the peel of a banana for cleaning teeth is as beneficial as the fruit itself for your body's nutrition. Loaded with the goodness of potassium, manganese and other such minerals, the peel helps in taking off the layer of discoloration from your teeth. Doing this thrice a week is good enough to keep your teeth shining white.
Celery – An extremely beneficial vegetable, a celery helps your teeth in some ways. It is used in many herbal medicines for treating gum diseases and gingivitis. Chew celery to increase the secretion of salvia that will kill the bacteria in your mouth numbing any foul odor. It is a natural cleaning formula for ridding teeth of yellow stains.
Walnut – Not many know this, but this superfood is an effective teeth whitener. Crush some walnuts and scrub your teeth with it. It will not remove stains from your teeth but also prevent any bacterial formation.
Truffle Oil – Dip your toothbrush into this exotic oil with significant whitening effects for your teeth. Brush your teeth with this thrice a day post meals.
Clove Oil – The age-old remedy of using clove oil for teeth problems remains unconquered. Rub a very small amount of this strong oil onto your teeth after brushing. It will keep them for discoloration. Plus, the germicidal properties of the oil inhibit the growth of bacteria, keep your teeth healthy and white.
Coconut Oil – Swish a spoonful of coconut oil in your mouth for a good 5 minutes for bacteria-free white teeth. Alternately, you can add a few drops of the oil on your toothbrush or onto a clean washcloth and rub it on your teeth. The oil doesn't have any bleaching properties for whitening your teeth. Rather, the lauric acid present in the oil cleans off the plaque and bacteria both of which cause tooth discoloration. So, you experience a whiter teeth and fresher breath.
Olive Oil – Brush your teeth every once in a while with a few drops of this miracle oil and follow it up with a cold water rinse. It will reward you with flawlessly white teeth in no time. This safe method works by gradually seeping into the nooks and corners of your mouth which are the breeding grounds of bacteria and plaque. The viscosity of the oil makes it a winner over other mouthwashes. Also, being liquid, olive oil can clean places in your mouth where a toothbrush and dental floss cannot reach.
Sesame Oil – Just after brushing, swish a couple of tablespoons of this wonder oil, swirling it in every nook and corner of your mouth. Spit out the oil and rinse your mouth. Do this for three to four times for 10 minutes for cleaner, whiter teeth. This needs to be done on an empty stomach.
Apple Cider Vinegar – Gargle with the vinegar every once in a while to get white teeth free from germs and bacteria. But being acidic, some safety is cautioned when following this remedy. The best way to use apple cider vinegar is by diluting it with two parts of water for every part of itself. This mixture can be swished around in the mouth for a minute or two before rinsing off. Wait for about 30 minutes before brushing teeth as vinegar can be abrasive to sensitive gums and brushing the tooth immediately may lead to cause serious discomfort in the gums.
Dark Chocolates – Probably the most welcoming remedy of all, you will be delighted to know that chewing on some good quality dark chocolate can effectively whiten your teeth besides satiating your taste buds. The 'theobromine' it contains is a tooth enamel hardener and is effective in preventing tooth discoloration. Raw chocolate, in fact, is the best choice for treating stained teeth as it has much more antioxidants than its processed counterparts for cleaning your teeth and contribute to its overall health. For the best results, munch on cacao nibs. Although not a very palatable option but this pure form of chocolate is the best way of treating your stained teeth. The next best option is to nibble on an organic dark chocolate with lesser than 6 to 8 grams sugar content per serving.
Turmeric – Dip your toothbrush in some turmeric powder and brush your teeth with it. Then, let the teeth soak in the turmeric for few minutes and after that rinse your mouth. Following this, go about your regular tooth brushing ritual. Turmeric is a natural whitener in use since the ancient times. It will keep your teeth bright and white and also, your gums healthy.
Milk and Yogurt – The abundance of phosphorus and calcium in both these dairy items helps in the re-mineralization of the tooth enamel. Consume them on a daily basis to maintain healthy, white teeth.
Cheese – Cheese lovers will welcome this remedy of munching on cheese post meals for getting whiter teeth. The cheese works by reducing the acidic components and increasing the pH balance in the mouth, thus preventing tooth discoloration. And then, of course, the calcium-rich cheese keeps teeth stronger.
Sugar-Free Gums – These chewing gums contain xylitol which is very beneficial in whitening discolored teeth. Chewing these gums secretes saliva to neutralize the mouth's pH level.
Whitening Strips – Going on a date but your yellow teeth are giving you pangs of inconfidence? This is the perfect time to test the teeth whitening strips available in the market. Coated with peroxide gel, these strips can rid you of the yellow stains on your teeth instantly.
Dental floss – Dental flossing effectively removes the stubborn yellow stains off your teeth which simple brushing cannot. Dental floss is a simple piece of string, which comes in its waxed or un-waxed versions and can be flavored or not. Wrap the floss around your fingers by some 18 inches to dislodge the food particles trapped under the gums and in-between teeth, places where a toothbrush fails to reach. Ideally, you should brush post every meal to maintain the perfect teeth hygiene and avoid teeth discoloration. But most of us would agree that's not something very practical. In that case, flossing daily and ideally, during the bedtime is a good idea.
Margosa – One most natural way of whitening teeth is to chew on to the twigs of Margosa. Alternately, the essential oil of Margosa can be mixed with toothpaste to brush teeth for equally good results. It also treats dental caries and cavities, thus, contributing to whiter teeth.
Basil – Basil has many antibacterial properties which help in keeping gums and teeth healthy. Moreover, the leaves when sun-dried, ground and used with regular toothpaste for brushing teeth can whiten stained teeth naturally.
Sage leaves – Rubbing sage leaves on the teeth on a regular basis can strengthen the tooth enamel and reduce discoloration.
Green Tea – The rich goodness of green tea is no more a hidden fact. Drink green tea to let the tannins in it clean off the teeth stains. The fluoride present in it, on the other hand, checks enamel erosion of the teeth. Drink green tea thrice a day to bring sparkling, white teeth on your way!
Bay Leaves – Make a paste of powdered orange peel and dried bay leaves. Rub this paste on your teeth to get beautiful, white teeth. You can try the same technique with lemon juice for equally good results.
Aloe Vera – Make a paste of freshly extracted aloe vera gel, baking soda, and glycerine. Rub this paste on your teeth to ward off bacteria and whiten stained teeth. Aloe Vera also provides excellent protection against cavity-triggering bacteria in the mouth. This natural gel is loaded with anthrax-quinine compounds which protect the gums from any inflammation. Aloe vera also keeps your teeth healthy by keeping off conditions like lichen-planus and gingivitis.
Roots of Banyan – Chew the roots of a banyan tree, the ones who hang aerially. The natural whitening agents and astringent properties present in these unique roots heal and polish your teeth for a pearly shine.
Peelu fibers – The natural whitening agents present in the fibers of Peelu plant can effectively whiten teeth. It is available in many herbal stores in the powdered form or as an essential ingredient in many herbal kinds of toothpaste.
Acacia extract – A mixture of acacia wood charcoal, rock salt, and roasted alum makes for a miracle formula for whitening teeth at home. Acacia is a popular ingredient in herbal toothpaste. In Ayurvedic medicine of India, the herb has been known to be one of the most effective tooth whiteners since the ancient times. The tannin present in the twigs of Acacia makes stained yellow teeth white.
As we hear it all the time, merely eating enough food will not make us healthy but following a balanced combination of healthy diet, exercise and healthy lifestyle will. Same goes for oral hygiene, which can become compromised due to hereditary factors, fluoride deposits, excessive drinking of caffeinated drinks, smoking, aging, side-effects of antibiotics and unbalanced metabolism. Regular brushing of teeth, twice to several times a day post meals and eating healthy foods ensure a good oral hygiene. With that comes a little more care like flossing your teeth or using certain natural teeth cleaning and whitening agents, which can transform your discolored teeth to a pearly white smile.

'Humein bahut maara': Dramatic scenes at Aligarh Court as alert lawyers prevent Grooming Jihad by man who posed as Hindu
The man has been identified as one Sonu Malik. Following the incident inside the Court premises, dramatic scenes were also observed outside.
Image Credit: IANS
Unusual scenes were observed at a Court in Aligarh on Saturday after a case of Grooming Jihad made its way to the Court premises. The trouble began when a man came to register his marriage with a woman from a different faith at a Court in Aligarh. He was apparently thrashed by unidentified individuals and a case has been registered in the matter.
The man has been identified as one Sonu Malik. Following the incident inside the Aligarh Court premises, dramatic scenes were also observed outside. The woman could be heard saying that she is not a minor and has immense love for Sonu. The Police decided that they have had enough when she said 'Meri jaan hai woh' (He is my life) following which she was guided into a vehicle and the footage stops at that point.
अलीगढ़: हिंदू युवती को लेकर शादी करने कोर्ट पहुंचा था मुस्लिम युवक, कोर्ट परिसर में जमकर हुआ हंगामा…#LoveJihaad #लवजिहाद #UttarPradesh pic.twitter.com/2N54Id1N4s
— News24 (@news24tvchannel) December 5, 2020
The man was equally dramatic. He said, "Mere pyar ko rok liya, humein bahut maara court me," ("They have stopped my love, they thrashed me a lot in Court"), Sonu Malik could be heard saying as he was being dragged by the Police. He kept saying "Mere pyar ko rok liya" but the Police did not appear particularly bothered by such profound declaration of affection.
Later, however, the woman revealed that Sonu had introduced himself as a Hindu but it was only later that she discovered he was a Muslim. She came to know him through Facebook and she travelled with him from Chandigarh three days earlier. She appeared calm and composed while talking to the media after the initial spell of distraught.
"पहले लड़के ने मुझे अपना नाम "Sonu" बताया था, मुझे बाद में पता चला वो दूसरे धर्म का है" #Aligarh #लव_जिहाद pic.twitter.com/v9iE4ljOSE
The woman further revealed that the man had emotionally blackmailed her saying that he will drink poison if she did not meet him and could not live without her. Shalabh Mani Tripathi, press adviser to Yogi Adityanath, revealed that it was the girl's family who had provided some 'service' to the man inside the court, hinting that it was them who thrashed him.
Tripathi also revealed that it was at the Aligarh Court that it was discovered that Sonu is actually a Muslim and his name is Mohammed Sonu. The girl's family reached the spot after being alerted by the lawyers. Tripathi also said that the new law against 'Love Jihad' was working well.
हिंदू लड़की को अपना नाम सोनू बता कर जाल में फँसाया,शादी करने कोर्ट पहुँचा तो पता चला कि असली नाम तो मुहम्मद सोनू है,लव जिहादी मौक़े पर ही धरा गया,वकीलों की सूचना पर पहुँचे लड़की के घरवालों ने थोड़ी सेवा भी की,योगीजी का 'नया क़ानून' बखूबी काम कर रहा है,वकीलों को 'विशेष' साधुवाद 😊 pic.twitter.com/h5yEPThe4S
— Shalabh Mani Tripathi (@shalabhmani) December 5, 2020
Provisions of the new law
The new anti-conversion law is aimed at preventing forced conversions under the pretext of love and marriage. "There were more than 100 incidents reported in which forceful religious conversion was being done. Also, it was reported that religious conversions were going on in the state using deceitful means. So to make a law on this becomes an important matter of policy now," UP Cabinet Minister Siddharth Nath Singh had earlier remarked.
Under the new law, a jail term of 1-5 years is awarded to the accused (extended to 3-10 years in case of SC/STs) and a fine of ₹15,000 (₹25,000 in case of SC/STs). Moreover, the offender's proven guilty for mass conversion will attract a jail term of 10 years.
Cases registered under anti-Grooming Jihad law
Multiple cases have been registered already under the new law. Muzaffarnagar police have registered a case against two accused named Nadeem and Salman on Monday evening. The two are accused of trying to force a married Hindu woman to convert to Islam. According to Akshay, the duo started luring his wife to leave him and marry one of them.
They also started asking her to convert to Islam on multiple occasions and tried to lure her for Nikkah. But Akshay got wind of the matter, and before things go out of hand, he left Bhagwanpur. Uttar Pradesh police have also arrested Uwais Ahmed, the accused who was absconding ever-since a case was registered against him, for trying to forcibly convert a Hindu girl to Islam.

Q: Static variable simultaion: classes vs generators I was curious about using static variables in python, and ended up at: Why doesn't Python have static variables?
In the accepted answer, which I found informative, it is said "If you want your function's behavior to change each time it's called, what you need is a generator".
However I was a bit confused, since the example used there can be done with a class as well:
class Foo(object):
    def __init__(self, bar):
        self.bar = bar

    def __call__(self):
        self.bar = self.bar * 3 % 5
        return self.bar

foo = Foo(bar)
print foo()
print foo()

This makes more sense to me (but probably only because I haven't used generators properly before).
So my question is whether there is some other advantage to using generators over classes when the function needs to change behavior each time it's called.

A: Generators (the simple ones, not getting into coroutines) have a single, very specific purpose: Writing iterators. To this end, you get implicit capture of local variable and a keyword to suspend (as opposed to "terminate" - you can resume) execution and give the caller the next value of the iterator. The advantages are:

*

*The logic reads more naturally, as you don't need to chop it into several method invokations - all state is preserved, including the program counter - you can use control flow across yielding . You could replace yield x with results.append(x) and return results at the end and get a function that's equivalent to list(the_original_generator(...)).

*You don't need to explicitly make values long-lived by putting them into self - less to type and less to read.

*You don't need a class declaration with two method declarations (a few lines of boilerplate, which is considerable by Python standards).

You can use the "capture of local variable" thing to implement an iterable which behaves as, except that you can have multiple ones and you don't invoke a function but use an iterator (next_val = next(vals) instead of next_val = vals()). Whether it is appropriate depends.

A: There's nothing you can do with a generator that you couldn't do with a class.
The reason to use generators is simply that they're shorter, and in many cases read more naturally than classes. Obviously this depends what you're doing. In the example you give, you just want to repeatedly perform the same operations and spit out the number, so a generator makes perfect sense. For more complex situations, you'd use a class.

A: A proper generator class looks like this:
class Foo(object):
    def __init__(self, bar):
        self.bar = bar

    def __iter__(self):
        return self

    def next(self):
        self.bar = self.bar * 3 % 5
        return self.bar

foo = Foo(3)
print next(foo)
print next(foo)

The equivalent generator function takes half the code:
def Foo(bar):
    while True:
        bar = bar * 3 % 5
        yield bar

foo = Foo(3)
print next(foo)
print next(foo)

Generator functions are just a shortcut for the most common, basic iteration pattern. When you need something more complex a class allows for that.

A: For generators there's no other way to access the variable, except by calling a function, while in a class-based variant, you can modify it directly. This can be both advantage and disadvantage depending on your use-case. Also the code is simpler. For a more detailed discussion see: http://wiki.python.org/moin/Generators

Happy Birthday to Julia Boggs Dent Grant, born 193 years ago this year.
I will hope to add/bump a thread or two in memory, as I continue to remember her devotion to her husband, who was equally devoted to her. Julia Dent Grant was definitely the woman behind the man.
Did a thread on Julia in 2013 I won't bump because there's a photo of Mary Todd instead of Julia ( Pinterest... coin hadn't dropped it's not a reliable source ). Very nice story from City Point illustrating her relationship with her husband, thread by 18th Virginia.

Unfortunately that is all I can remember about the story, so if anyone has any information about this I would like to know Fools' Gold (Order of Darkness)! I didn't get a gothic feel from this story either, not once. Every single character was underdeveloped and I didn't feel as if I'd gotten to know any of them. With Connan I'm not seeing any 'charm', dark or otherwise The Day Before Forever (Seventh Miss Hatfield). I later met Kathey Acker as my teacher at the San Francisco Art Institute, who introduced me to Gregory Corso, who introduced me to Bukowski at Brautigan's funeral. The Brautigan issue with Bukowski was that I became pregnant with Richard and had an emotionally, highly charged, dramatic illegal abortion in Mexico The Queen's Lady (The Other Countess).

Some of the authors I've included on this list are winners of the RITA Award, given by the Romance Writers of America (RWA). Among them: Nora Roberts, LaVyrle Spencer, and Diana Gabaldon. Roberts is one of the best-selling romance writers of all-time. Gabaldon's epic Outlander series is without question my favorite historical romance series ever. If you're a huge reader, you might also be interested in these lists of famous historical novelists, fantasy authors, crime authors and young adult authors Shadows on the Moon.

Historical romance novels can be set in any timeframe in history and in any geography. Step back into the American Revolution, the European Dark Ages, the French Revolution or Medieval or Victorian England Eight To One. Regency historicals often make powerful statements about the cost of war, but in the end it's the stories of love triumphing over the horrors that stay with me. War veterans are a staple of romance, and in historical romance no other battle figures more prominently than Waterloo. The great battle hardens some heroes, honing their strengths and preparing them for the challenges that civilian life might throw at them (including the love of a feisty heroine) Underground.

Le LEAP, pour , est une génération de turboréacteurs conçue par le consortium CFM International detenu à 50/50 par Safran Aircraft Engines (anciennement SNECMA) et GE (General Electric). Il est destiné à remplacer la famille des CFM56.

Historique
Officiellement annoncé le , le LEAP passe ses tests de certification en 2014 pour une entrée en service sur les avions civils monocouloirs en 2016. En 2010, Comac et Airbus ont annoncé qu'ils équiperaient leur avion respectif, le C919 et l'A320neo, des moteurs LEAP, tandis que Boeing confirme en 2011 le LEAP comme seule motorisation pour le Boeing 737 MAX.

Le premier essai en vol d'un moteur LEAP a eu lieu le . Il est assemblé à l'usine Safran accolée à l'aérodrome de Melun-Villaroche (Seine-et-Marne).

Safran va construire à partir de juin 2019 une usine dans la zone de l'aéroport international d'Hyderabad dédiée à la production de pièces de LEAP. Nécessitant un investissement de  d'euros, elle couvrira une surface de  (dont huit d'ateliers) et emploiera une cinquantaine de personnes à son lancement, 300 à terme. Les premières pièces pourront être produites début 2020. À pleine cadence, en 2023, elle pourra livrer jusqu'à  par an.

 ont été livrés en 2018, . À la suite de la suspension de vol du Boeing 737 Max de mars 2019 à novembre 2020, CFMI produit en moyenne 10 moteurs LEAP par semaine en 2020, avec possibilité de réajustement à la demande de Boeing.

Technique et performances

Le LEAP est un réacteur double flux double-corps avec un taux de dilution de l'ordre de 10. Le diamètre de soufflante est compris entre . Les aubes de turbine basse pression sont usinées à partir d'un alliage de titane et d'aluminium (TiAl). Les anneaux et aubes de turbine haute pression sont réalisés en composite à matrice céramique (CMC). Les aubes de soufflante sont en matériaux composites tissés 3D associés au procédé RTM (de l'anglais , moulage par injection de résine) ; plus durables et moins nombreuses (18 contre  dans les moteurs CFM56), elles devraient permettre un gain de masse de près de .

La consommation spécifique du LEAP est ainsi annoncée de 16 % inférieure à celle du CFM56 ; CFM International annonce également une diminution des émissions de  de 16 %, de  de 50 % et une diminution du niveau sonore du moteur de .

Trois versions du LEAP-X ont donc été développées. Le LEAP-1A prévu pour l'Airbus A320neo, le LEAP-1C pour le Comac C919, et le LEAP-1B pour le Boeing 737 MAX. Ces trois versions ne sont pas totalement identiques, principalement pour des raisons d'encombrement. En effet, ces avions n'ayant pas tous la même hauteur sous aile, le diamètre de la soufflante doit être adapté (et donc le nombre d'étages dans les turbines et compresseurs).

Le partage des rôles entre GE et Safran, les deux motoristes associés dans le cadre de la coentreprise CFM International pour le développement du LEAP, conserve le même schéma que lors du développement du CFM56 : GE réalise l' (compresseur haute-pression, chambre de combustion, turbine haute-pression) ainsi qu'une partie de l'intégration tandis que Safran se charge de la soufflante (ou fan en anglais), du corps basse-pression (composé du compresseur basse pression et de la turbine basse pression), ainsi que la tuyère d'éjection des gaz.

Nelson 32ft. ex pilot boat from south coast. The whole boat and engines were completely stripped and overhauled 2018, propellers rebuilt. Went in water on test for six weeks, then winter came. Stood in hardstanding on purpose built launch trailer. The Nelson group are well known to be very very good stable sea boat. I have only used the boat a few times on test, does 20 plus mph, cruises at 15 effortlessly. With it having twin engines and props and rudders, it is extremely manoeuvreable and seems very good on fuel.
The boat is ready to set off anywhere you want.
