(Updates with U.S. manufacturing report starting in second paragraph, dollar trading in seventh.)
Aug. 1 (Bloomberg) -- Manufacturing indexes from Asia to the U.S. to Europe fell in July as demand weakened and the global recovery from recession lost momentum.
U.K., Russian and Australian manufacturing shrank last month, while the pace of factory growth slowed in Europe and China, according to surveys today. An index of U.S. manufacturing dropped more than economists forecast to a two- year low, even after the dollar's 7 percent drop against the euro this year.
Europe's debt crisis, U.S. political haggling over the nation's debt limit and monetary tightening in China have combined to restrain the global recovery. Consumer confidence is being undermined by job cuts and government austerity measures, while manufacturers may also struggle to recover as soaring commodity prices weigh on margins.
"Manufacturing is slowing and some of these readings are in recessionary territory," said David Owen, chief European economist at Jefferies International Ltd. in London. "Coming through a banking crisis, you can't place much weight on the consumer so you depend on manufacturers doing well."
The U.S. economy expanded less than economists forecast in the second quarter as shoppers retrenched. The Institute for Supply Management's manufacturing index fell to 50.9 last month from 55.3 in June, lower than the median estimate of 54.5 in a Bloomberg News survey of 80 economists. A measure of new orders fell to 49.2, showing the first contraction since June 2009.
The dollar has declined against 15 of 16 currencies tracked by Bloomberg this year, improving U.S. export competitiveness. It has fallen about 5 percent against the yen and the pound and 16 percent against the Swiss franc.
It strengthened against the euro today, to $1.4277 versus the single currency, from $1.4398 on July 29.
In the U.K., a factory gauge by Markit Economics fell to 49.1, the lowest since June 2009, from 51.4, and a measure for Russia slipped to 49.8 from 50.6. Australia's index slid to a two-year low of 43.4 from 52.9. Readings below 50 indicate contraction.
Europe's index of manufacturing growth cooled to 50.4, the slowest pace in 22 months, from 52 in June. China's purchasing manufacturing index moderated to 50.7 from 50.9, the China Federation of Logistics and Purchasing said, as the faltering recovery in the U.S. and Europe limited demand for goods from the world's second-largest economy.
Margin Pressure
Volkswagen AG, Europe's largest automaker, said July 28 rising commodity prices and a strengthening euro will damp earnings gains this year after reporting lower-than-expected second-quarter profit. Schneider Electric SA, the world's biggest maker of low- and medium-voltage equipment, a day later pared its full-year margin target after reporting lower-than- estimated earnings because of raw-material inflation.
In Europe, "the optimistic interpretation is that the slowdown still reflects temporary factors" such as debt crises and the Japanese earthquake, Jens Sondergaard, senior economist at Nomura International Plc in London, said in a note to clients. "A more pessimistic interpretation is that today's numbers are the first signs that the near-term economic outlook is significantly worse than our central case."
Fiscal Squeeze
Markit's composite index of European manufacturing and services, published on July 21, fell to 50.8 in July, the lowest in almost two years, signaling the economic recovery is losing momentum. Governments from Greece to Spain have pledged austerity measures to defend credit ratings and contain borrowing costs as they tackle rising deficits. That's undermining sentiment among consumers at the same time as companies continue to cut jobs.
HSBC Holdings Plc, Europe's largest bank, said today it plans to cut 30,000 jobs by the end of 2013, about 10 percent of the total, to stem rising costs.
The U.S. is set to reach the limit of its ability to borrow tomorrow after recording the worst growth performance since the start of the recovery in June 2009, according to data published July 29. Congressional leaders agreed on a deal late yesterday to raise the country's $14.3 trillion debt limit and slash government spending.
The economy expanded at a 1.3 percent annual rate in the second quarter after growing 0.4 percent in the previous three months. While consumer spending rose just 0.1 percent, exports were one of the economy's bright spots, increasing 6 percent. Dow Chemical Co., the largest U.S. chemical maker, said on July 27 that demand is "strong" in markets abroad.
Global economic growth is also being hampered by rising commodity prices. Oil prices have risen as much as 40 percent in the past year, while wheat costs are up as much as 35 percent.
The data today present "the most worrying scenario for manufacturers," said Karen Ward, senior global economist at HSBC Holdings Plc in London. "Global commodity prices are placing pressure on consumers and companies. The bright spots are pretty few and far between."

15 Primal Ways to Savor the Holiday Season
Posted By Mark Sisson On December 20, 2012 @ 8:00 am In Announcements,Personal Improvement | 62 Comments
This past summer I did a slow living inspired guide to enjoying summer [7]. Those lazy days feel long gone now, but I've heard from a number of readers lately who are looking to fill their winter and holiday seasons with the same Primal inspiration. Besides the amazing recipes [8] and great winter workouts [9], what food for thought can the Primal Blueprint offer this time of year? What can we do to make the most of these shortest, darkest days and busiest holiday weeks? What does it mean – in practical as well as broader terms – to apply a Primal lens to the season?
Let me actually reframe it in terms of the Primal Connection [10] – the concept that our evolutionary roots have something to teach us in creating a contented, fulfilling life – because I think it most aptly addresses the question. In making the Primal Connection, we're motivated to embrace the full potential and pleasure of our physical as well as intuitive selves. We're moved to reconnect with the natural world and our innate rhythms. We're drawn to explore deeper, more essential dimensions of social relationships [11] and expand our practice of creative play [12].
The modern dilemma is often untangling ourselves from the distracting and distorting cultural baggage attached to these fundamental inclinations. Look at what we too often put ourselves through this time of year. As much as we're driven to fit in with our surrounding culture – a complicated instinct of its own – there's a certain irony in the fact that these weeks are often our most unhealthy. While nature encourages us to lay low, rest more, and keep life casual, many of us are burning the candle at both ends. We sleep less, eat more junk food, rush more often, overspend more frequently, and then wonder why we're so tired and cranky by the end of it.
A lot of great blogs and publications encourage us to slow down during the holidays. By all means, the slow movement is as applicable now as it was back in August. In the spirit of those readers' inquiries, however, let me take it a step further. If slow suggests a pace for living and a subsequent winnowing of priorities, what practical cues can the Primal Connection add to that deliberation? What can our Primal roots remind us to prioritize in the midst of the commercial blitz? And how do we put the holidays in perspective and give the winter season it's celebratory due? In short, beyond the buffets, what does it mean to keep it Primal this time of year?
Thanks for reading today, everyone. Share your own thoughts and suggestions on enjoying a full Primal season. Have a great weekend.
The Sequel to The Primal Blueprint Releases on January 8
In a few short weeks I'll be releasing The Primal Connection, the long-awaited sequel to The Primal Blueprint [35]. As friends and colleagues within the ancestral movement have so generously described, The Primal Connection offers the first really new dimension in the paleo/Primal space in years. Is there any better way to start the new year – not to mention the fact that we all survived the Mayan apocalypse? In all seriousness, I've been pumped about this launch for months now.
Like The Primal Blueprint [35], The Primal Connection is both a culmination and expansion of principles I've first introduced here on MDA. It picks up where The Primal Blueprint left off, by extending the primal theme beyond the diet and exercise basics. In it I present a comprehensive plan to overcome the flawed mentality and hectic pace of high-tech, modern life and reprogram your genes to become joyful, care-free, and at peace with the present. Inherent to The Primal Connection is the concept that we can use the model of our ancestors to create not just a healthier existence but also a more balanced and fulfilling life. My hope is that upon reading it you'll emerge with a renewed appreciation for the simple pleasures of life and our most precious gifts of time, health, and love.
Just as I did [36]for Primal Blueprint Healthy Sauces, Dressings & Toppings [37] earlier this month, I'll have something special put together for devoted Mark's Daily Apple readers when this book is released on January 8th, 2013. So mark your calendar and be ready to jump on the offer while it lasts.

Watch at 00.35 seconds. I don't think that's his dick, though...
Watch at 00.35 seconds. I don't think that's his dick, though...
Watched the video, and it's not...
If you pause it right at 42 seconds you can see from a better angle/lighting, he's just got a "groove" in between his abs, nothing more.
it's a really tough question, and i really can't decide between the two
dougie is sooooooooo cute and kinda wierd and for some reason i imagine he'd b wild in bed.
Danny is very hot, he can sing which is such a turn on, and he has a killer smile.
The first one.
The first one is hot!
At first glance I say Danny (the second one), but can I choose both?
Dougie! No question.
The first one only because he looks older....
Harry (the drummer) is the cutest in Mcfly,i dont really like any of the rest
I think I like Dougie best because he's a little strange. Of course, he's hot too, but I really am drawn to the unusual
douuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugie is so much hotter!
ummmm, both please
I was watching Paul o Grady and Alex Zane said he has done a nude interview with McFly they showed a picture and they had censored out the male bits. Where is this interview of a nude Alex Zane and McFly?
nice very very nice
did anybody else notice the one guy playing with his buddies nipples???
Real or Fake?
I've heard plenty of people claiming a pic is faked but someone claiming a TV interview is fake , thats a first
There were caps of this somewhere...
If you look close, the two guys in the back are wearing underwear, you can just see the straps of them.
Which leads to assume that the guys in the front are actually wearing underwear underneath those blurs.
I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, but I'm afraid my walk has become rather sillier recently...
I think they are wearing underwear, but two of them aren't in this picture.
Gotta be Danny
orgy that all im gonna say
Both are GORGEOUS and the hottest in the band!
BUT Dougie is SOO cute and seems VERY shy and innocent!
Definately DOUGIE for me!
so whos got their nude pix
Arn't there ways to clear away the fuzzy parts of it to show the origional tape?
no all of them in me at once
Danny for sure...
I saw the nude video on ericdeman.com
could u post the video? Im not in the mood to dish out cash.
Do u think Dougie is gay? everytime i see him on tv my gaydar goes through the roof. but yeh for me Dougie for sure, i can imagine that he would b fantastic in bed
neither of them. Harry is the only semi-good looking member of that band.
I like McFly........you know what's amazing about that video? They managed to keep their clothes on for 7 and a half mins
They're gay, right?
Dougie the base player is gay... also there is suspision of Tom and Danny having a gay relationshihp together (2 guitarists)
Love McFly. Great band. Pretty hot, too!!!
sorry , but didnt know who they were until now, thought this post had to do with greys anatomy...lol
Really? I didn't know Dougie was gay. I just read on their website that girls in thongs are a turn on for him. Damn record companies if they are getting him to lie for the sake of making money.
I was under the impression they were all straight.......god my gaydar really is shit, lol.l
In a few years, Dougie will be in a relationship with Reichen
Dougie's not gay.
At least....he hasn't come out or anything. I absoultely LOVE Dougie...and McFLY...I've seen some videos of him checking out girls on paper and saying "she's hotter," etc.
He's brittish, he's GORGEOUS, and he's shy...that can be interpreted as gay.
But, yeah. He's straight
Does it really matter if they're straight, gay etc? Having said that would love to spend time getting to know Danny better.....

In Demand, Variable Data Delivers
May 1998"People don't want hassles; they want variable data solutions with no limitations," Avida adds. "They want unlimited flexibility and huge amounts of power—that's what we're aiming to deliver."
In addition to Fiery FreeForm, EFI has built Xerox's VIPP architecture into the Fiery ZX for the DocuColor 70 digital press.
Colorbus CEO Thomas White sees today's variable data activities as only the beginning. "Taking a more broad perspective, you'll find the real interesting opportunity in variable data in a combination of databases, the World Wide Web and print-on-demand," White states.
"People want to print different documents, with different content to different places in the world and print it locally at different sites—our vision is to take variable data to the next level by leveraging technologies that are on the market today; that's the true challenge in the variable data printing field today."
Various Variable Visions
Xerox is another player delivering variable data on a multitude of levels. Virtually any software manufacturer delving into variable data development has contacted Xerox, urging for collaboration and endorsement.
After all, Xerox DocuTech technology is driving custom printing on many levels, so it is only logical that Xerox should be the plum target for variable data software innovators.
Who dances with Xerox?
Xerox officials report that most of its customers use two or more of the standard three (so far) variable data software technologies that the DocuTech inventor supports: Xerox Variable Data Intelligent PostScript PrintWare (VIPP), Atlas PrintShop Mail 97 and Scitex Darwin.
Here's a thumbnail of each:
VIPP is used with applications that have a constant printing structure. Constant structures are less graphic-intensive and are characterized by a repetitive variable set and a large number of records, as in financial statements. VIPP is an expanded version of the former Xerox Generic Format (XGF) product.
In addition to the DocuColor 70 digital color press, VIPP currently supports Xerox network PostScript printers, including the DocuPrint Network Printer Series (NPS) family, the DocuPrint 4220 and 4230 distributed network printers, and the DocuTech 6135 and 6180 publishers.
DocuPrint products are optimized for transaction data-oriented production printing applications, while DocuTech products are designed for production publishing applications. DocuColor systems are built for short-run, on-demand production color printing. Future VIPP support is anticipated for other Xerox PostScript printers, including the DocuPrint N32 and N24 Network Laser Printers (NLP).
Atlas PrintShop Mail is a mail-merge/composition tool targeted to applications such as coupons, labels, invitations and lottery tickets. PrintShop Mail offers quick turnaround and high flexibility.
The Scitex Variable Information Solution (SVIS) has three components, including Scitex Darwin, a Mac-based authoring tool working concurrently with QuarkXPress to offer a friendly user interface with its own database manager to control the variable data. Darwin is ideal for highly creative applications that require Quark's limitless ability to flow text and objects on the page.
Also in the SVIS is the Scitex Variable Print Specification (VPS), the Scitex-developed formal language designed to facilitate both creation and processing of variable information jobs. Scitex VPS is an extension of the Adobe PostScript page description language and is intended for use by a VI (Variable Information) document authoring system to generate VI jobs. Any VPS enabled digital front end can process VI jobs efficiently.
In addition to Scitex, Xerox is also working arm-in-arm with West Coast-based Splash Technology, the company once solely focused on color—the company that pioneered servers which enabled color copiers to do overprinting, spot-color simulations, progressive separations and other value-added functions. Naturally, these capabilities turned the head of Xerox.
Splash, now in control of the DocuPress since its still relatively fresh acquisition of ColorAge, is moving more and more into the variable data spectrum. The
DiamondMerge feature on the DocuPress Ultra allows efficient handling of variable data print jobs by merging together any two documents. One of these documents is created as a form on the DocuPress. The other is printed with the instruction to use the form that was previously created.
For variable data use, the static page elements would exist on the DocuPress as a pre-RIPed form. The variable data are the only data that then need to RIP and image. And because DiamondMerge will merge any two documents, they can originate from different applications or workstations.
The new Splash PCI v6.0 and Splash DC v3.0 products to be introduced later this spring offer variable data printing as an option, featuring an optimized version of Atlas PrintShop Mail that creates a flat file with pointers to a database of text and graphics.
The new Splash servers intelligently and efficiently interpret the variable portion of the data that come from that application to improve performance when printing to a Xerox digital color copier.
"Our approach with the new Splash PCI and Splash DC lines is to break down customer barriers to trying variable data printing," states Kevin Macgillivray, CEO of Splash Technology. "Yet this is not our first variable data printing capability. Our Splash DocuPress line for the office and print-for-pay markets has included a server-based template/variable solution for more than one year now. Over time, we believe there will be a number of solutions tailored around all the diverse business cases and uses."
It seems variable data is working to be as customized as it can be—content may never be the same.
— Marie Ranoia Alonso
Atlas Software's standalone application for variable data applications, PrintShop Mail.
The VIPLine from BARCO Graphics is a complete system that functions as part of BARCO's PrintStreamer front-end system for digital presses.
EFI's Fiery FreeForm supports open platform, application-independent variable data printing, allowing use with any application on any platform that can print to a Fiery.
IBM offers variable data tools to personalize data, which can be implemented into individual documents. MergeDoc is an IBM production tool that runs on the InfoColor 70 console. MergeDoc preflights and preps variable data jobs for the RIP.
Colorbus, recently acquired by fellow RIP-manufacturer Colorstar, offers PrintStorm, a printing extension that sits between the page layout software and the printer.
Scitex's Darwin solution allows for customization of graphic-intensive documents. Created for Scitex color servers, Darwin creates in QuarkXPress.
VariScript, from Varis, is a database-driven variable imaging software that allows for the complete separation of the data and page format.
Xerox's Variable Data Intelligent PostScript PrintWare (VIPP) is an expanded version of the former Xerox Generic Format (XGF) product.
Agfa offers Personalizer X, a QuarkXTension that allows variable-data documents to be created in QuarkXPress for use with the Chromapress.
Indigo's E-Print 1000 Turbo-Stream digital offset color press sports a new front end designed specifically for variable data software.
Xeikon offers its own array of tools, including the Xeikon Variable Data System, which separates the processing of fixed and variable data.

Ambassador Recipes: Eating Real For Less #1
Wed 13 Aug 2014Story by The Jamie Oliver Food Foundation (USA)
Last month, as one of our July challenges for our ambassadors, we asked them to come up with a meal for a family of 4 for under $10. Suggested by ambassador Terri from the Netherlands, this great challenge results in our ambassadors sharing their budget family recipes from all around the world.
Over the next couple of blog posts we�ll be re-sharing some of our favourites. Check them out and be inspired to see that feeding your family real food doesn�t have to cost a fortune.
Glazed Chicken and Caprese Salad
Christina Erickson, Mundelein, Illinois, USA
My $10.00 challenge recipe was a balsamic glazed chicken over caprese salad. I didn't follow a recipe just made it up as I went. If you would like you can easily make this without the chicken.
All the greens, basil and radishes were from my garden. I even used the leaves of the radishes as a part of the salad. - Free
Handful of cherry tomatoes, about 1/2 the package - $2.00
Fresh Mozzarella from a local Italian deli - $2.00
Organic Chicken tenders, half the package - $3.50
Balsamic vinegar, olive oil, salt, garlic - $2.00 (?)
I made a basic marinade for the chicken using some balsamic vinegar, salt, extra virgin olive oil, and garlic. I cooked the chicken in a non-stick pan on the stove and then cut each piece in half lengthwise. I put all the lettuces in a big bowl and dressed the salad with a balsamic vinaigrette which I make by feel, then added the cubed cheese, quartered tomatoes, sliced basil and radishes and finally the chicken on top then drizzled a touch of balsamic vinegar over everything.
My entire family polished off their salad and my 6 year old even said, "This was a good dinner mom." They are used to dinners like this but I thought it was nice she complimented me ; ) Enjoy!
Yara Najjar, Beirut, Lebanon
Today I chose to introduce you to traditional Lebanese cuisine through our famous �Tabbouleh�.
Right here we eat it as a �Mezza� which means starters or a salad all along with BBQ and fish.
Here�s the recipe for 4 people:
150 g Parsley
30 g Mint
300 g Tomatoes
90 Spring onions
2 tbsp Bulgur
8 tbsp Lemon
4 tbsp Olive oil
1 tsp Salt
I like the taste of acidity in it, so you can reduce the quantity of lemon in it depending on your taste.
For a more nutritious value replace Bulgur with quinoa.
Also for a more complex flavor, fresh pomegranate or pomegranate molasses can be added for a little bit of sweetness.
I guarantee this refreshing dish will definitely take you to the Mediterranean coast.
For more recipe inspiration, check out ambassador Mardi�s take on a Vegan chili (with eggplant) - so, so good, under budget and even better the next day as leftovers!
Share your photos and recipes with us for eating real on a budget by posting on our Food Revolution Community page and stayed tuned for some more real food recipes from our ambassadors.

I was hesitating whether to purchase this ring, because the image just didn't look that brilliant to me; however: I was extremely pleased when this ring came in the mail, it is simply beautiful. I would highly, recommend this ring to anyone who was on the boarder line of purchasing it, it's awesome. Excellent quality! From a very happy customer.
Ordered the ring on a Friday and it arrived in about three days. Was really surprised at this ring when I opened it. Quality is perfect, ring size was right on the money and I thought the center stone might be too large, but I'm used to it now and it fits right in with my lifestyle. I couldn't be happier with this ring and would recommend it to anyone who is interested! I pat myself on the back with my choice!
Really nice ring. very sparkly and well made for the price. runs a little larger than expected but truly a good buy!
This ring looks fake. I have brought rings for cheaper prices than this and they look better. Save your money.
It was a good product altogether..............::......................
You can't beat it for the price. I have gotten my moneys worth just by wearing it. It is very pretty and a good value.
Nice add to your fashion collection. Keep it out of water it changes color after a while.
looks very fake, not very good quality, I do not like it
I gave this to my Mom. She had so many compliments and very happy. I also love the price.
I have purchased other rings from Overstock and have been very pleased. This one, not so much. It is very light weight (not such a bad thing), but the setting is too yellow which makes the ring look cheap, IMO.

Growing Information
CULTURE: Requires warm, well-drained soil high in fertility, with a pH of 6.8-7.2. Consistent, adequate irrigation is needed to produce an abundant crop. Cucumbers are very sensitive to cold. Make sure both soil and air temperatures have warmed prior to planting. The use of poly mulch and row covers will greatly enhance the vigor and potential yields of cucumbers by providing warmth and insect protection. For greenhouse or high tunnel production the use of gynoecious and parthenocarpic varieties are highly recommended.
TRANSPLANTING: Sow indoors in 50-cell plug trays, 1-2 seeds/cell, 3-4 weeks before transplanting. Keep temperature above 70°F (21°C) day and 60°F (16°C) night. Transplant 12" apart in rows 5-6' apart. Do not disturb roots when transplanting.
DIRECT SEEDING: Wait until soil is warm, at least 70°F (21°C). Cucumber seeds will not germinate at a soil temperature below 50°F (10°C). Sow 2 seeds/ft., 1/2" deep, in rows 6' apart. Thin to 12" apart.
DISEASES: Practice crop rotation, residue sanitation, and choose disease-resistant varieties. Control insect pests to prevent bacterial wilt.
INSECT PESTS: Exclude cucumber beetles with row covers at planting, or control with pyrethrin or azadarachtin.
HARVEST: Once fruit bearing begins, pick daily.
STORAGE: Hold cucumbers at 45-50°F (7-10°C) and 90% relative humidity for up to 2 weeks.
DAYS TO MATURITY: From direct seeding; subtract about 10 days if transplanting.
AVG. DIRECT SEEDING RATE: 30 seeds sows 15', 100 seeds/50', 250 seeds/125', 500 seeds/250', 1,000 seeds/500', 15M/acre at 2 seeds/ft. in rows 6' apart.

Anyone ever heard of, or used this stuff before? Behlen food-safe wood finish for salad bowls, etc.Toolmonger » Blog Archive » Food-Safe Wood Finish
Yah, I've heard of people using it and it's probably safe. I just left mine unfinished though.
It says food safe, but nothing is mentioned about heat. I would contact the manufacturer about that.
Why not just rub it down with some canola oil or let it remain unfinished?
I used the salad bowl finish and it works great. Nice satin finish, cleans up easy.
where are the pics of the DYI paddles....
Here's mine.... Home Brew Forums - Registration 100% completely stolen from someone else on HBT that was making them that way. Only difference was that I flipped the two-row pattern so it would get into the very bottom corners of the paddle. I just sanded it down with the finest grit sand paper I could find and then didn't treat it with anything. It's maple.
Here is mine:Mash Paddle
Thanks, it was a quick effort, I was going to do something more stylized like Cape Brewing's paddle, but lack of a good cutting tool kept it simple. Yah, The Monks Flemmish is great, especially for $3.99 a bottle.

consoler, a Christian teacher at Antioch. Nothing else is known of him beyond what is stated in Acts 13:1 , where he is spoken of as having been brought up with (Gr. syntrophos; rendered in RSV "foster brother" of) Herod, i.e., Herod Antipas, the tetrach, who, with his brother Archelaus, was educated at Rome.
a comforter; a leader
(comforter ) is mentioned in ( Acts 13:1 ) as one of the teachers and prophets in the church at Antioch at the time of the appointment of Saul and Barnabas as missionaries to the heathen. He is said to have been brought up with Herod Antipas. He was probably his foster-brother.
man'-a-en (Manaen, Greek form of Hebrew name "Menahem," meaning "consoler"):
Manaen is mentioned, with Barnabas, Saul and others, in Acts 13:1, as one of the "prophets and teachers" in the recently rounded Gentile church at Antioch, at the time when Barnabas and Saul were "separated" by Divine call for their missionary service. He is further described as "the foster-brother (suntrophos) of Herod the tetrarch" (i.e. Herod Antipas (see HEROD)). He was probably brought up and educated with this Herod and his brother Archelaus. An earlier glimpse of Christian influence in Herod's court is afforded by Joanna, the wife of Herod's steward Chuzas, among the holy women who ministered to Jesus (Luke 8:3). Manaen may have been related to the older Manaen, the Essene, who, Josephus tells us, foretold the greatness of Herod the Great, and was afterward treated by Herod as his friend (Ant., XV, x, 5). His position in the church at Antioch was evidently an influential one, whether he himself ranked among the "prophets," or perhaps only among the "teachers."

Comprehensive Low Impedance Design, Shortened Signal Paths and Copper-plated Chasis
In order to achieve the absolute purest signal transmission, capable of communicating even the most subtle nuances of the music and its powerful dynamism—for example, reproducing powerful, agile low frequencies, and portraying all the emotional nuances of the human voice—we've methodically pursued low impedance throughout the A-S3000. Using a double construction design creates space for cables under the bottom of the chassis, enabling the shortest cable path for the supply of power from the transformer to the power stage and for the audio signal transmission path.
Read MoreFloating and Balanced Power Amplifier with MOSFETs
Click to EnlargeThe basic design of the power amp circuit adopts Yamaha's proprietary Floating and Balanced Power Amplifier technology. Adopting output elements with the same polarity on the plus and minus sides of the output stage, and also completely separating the NFB (negative feedback) circuit and power supply into a total of four plus and minus sides of the left and right channels, results in thoroughly symmetric push-pull operation of the output stage, Completely floating the entire power amp circuit from the ground removes any negative impact of minute voltage fluctuations or ground noise. Moreover, the output elements are comprised of MOSFETs, which provide a warm and natural sonic character.
Direct Drawing Toroidal Transformer for Complete Elimination of Signal Transmission Loss
The cabling of the power transformer adopts an ingenious method in order to significantly reduce impedance. The winding of the transformer itself is directly connected to the terminal with a screw, unlike with conventional cabling. This enables a power supply which thoroughly limits connection loss and energy loss caused by soldering. The toroidal transformer was selected with top priority on sound quality, contributing superior strength, as well as a profoundly natural and spacious sound.
Superior Quality Electronic Volume Control for Optimum Sound
We've utilized a high-quality digital volume control specially designed by New Japan Radio Co., Ltd., which consists only of ladder-type resistance, removing the impact of slew-rate decline or coloring of the sound, delivering higher purity in the sound, and excellent, fast response to large volume changes and steep transients.
Discretely Configured Phono Amp
The phono amp is comprised of an MC head amp and an equalizer amp, each of which are discretely configured, resulting in a
rich sound with pronounced musicality, when playing vinyl records with both MC and MM phone cartridges.
Original Speaker Terminals for High Sound Quality - as Well as Beauty and Ease of Use
The speaker terminals are the final link in the audio chain of this amplifier, and have also been designed with meticulous obsession. They are screw-type terminals with large handles featuring an original design, and have been crafted by cutting pure brass to enable a secure connection with no reduction in sound quality. Moreover, the shape conforms nicely to the human fingers—not only creating an elegant visual impression, but also allowing users to turn them easily and to firmly tighten them with minimal force.
Rigid Streamlined Construction Provides Strict Anti-vibration Protection and Enables Shortest Cabling Routes
The A-S3000 has adopted a newly designed highly rigid double structure construction in order to achieve profoundly pure and accurate audio amplification. The bottom chassis and insulator ward off external vibration, and provide each circuit board a floating structure supported by an independent inner frame, thoroughly eliminating the impact of vibration. And the power source unit, which consists of a power transformer and capacitors, which are major sources of internal vibration, is fixed firmly with a three-dimensional structured inner frame, and is supported solidly by the front panel and the rear panel.
Read MoreLarge Toroidal Transformer, Solidly Mounted with Independent Three-dimensional Inner Frame
An independent three-dimensional inner frame has been employed in order to provide a more solid mount for the large toroidal transformer, which is installed in the center of the A-S3000, considering the ideal weight balance. The completely copper-plated inner frame has a structure which integrates the front-back and left-right frames with a convex-shaped highly rigid main frame as its base, reducing vibration coming from all directions. For the base, to which the power transformer is installed on the inner frame, brass was selected by strictest examining the particular sonic properties of various materials by exhaustive listening tests. This material effectively reduces vibration caused by the power transformer, helping to create sound of greater clarity and spaciousness.
Exceptionally Low Impedance through Secure Screw Connections
In order to completely eliminate signal energy loss, important parts of even the circuits employ screw connections. In addition to wiring of the block capacitor of the power unit—which is the real heart of the amplifier and as such requires high power—screw connections were adopted for all crucial spots of signal transmission, including the connection of the preamp circuit with the power amp circuit, and the cabling to the speaker terminals from the output stage of the power amp. In addition to making the signal path as short as possible, this signifi cantly lowers the impedance, and greatly reduces signal loss.
Left-right Symmetrical Design for Independent Preamp and Power Amp Blocks
The amplifier circuit design features independent preamp and power amp blocks, and perfect left-right symmetry. Separation of the preamp, which handles low energy signals, from the power amp, which handles high-energy amplified signals, greatly reduces sound deterioration caused by mutual interference. Moreover, the left-right symmetrical design, which keeps the left and right power stages completely separate, ensures greater channel separation and enhances clarity of the stereo image.
Exquisite, Large Level Meters Reflect the Dynamics in the Music
The A-S3000 features large level meters on the front panel, giving a direct visual sense of the dynamics and pulse of the music. These beautiful meters are softly
illuminated by LED, lending a warm, lamplight look. The meter indicators can, in addition to the VU display, be switched to peak display, and can be selected according to the user's preference. Moreover, the glass window of the meters is diagonally cut and precision-fit to the back surface of the front panel, leaving no gaps and using no screws for connection—lending an exceptionally elegant
appearance to the unit.

As befits a top-end audio component, the A-S3000 gives off the presence of a fine musical instrument, with absolutely no screws or fasteners that can be seen from the outside. Every single aspect of its construction and design exudes master craftsmanship and reflects an obsession with quality—a truly musical quality possible only for Yamaha, a world class musical instrument manufacturer. The amplifier with its refined design has been meticulously finished by the skillful use of advanced processing technologies: integrating the top panel and side wood connection, leaving no gaps while using different materials—metal and wood—for the connection.
Obsessive, Meticulous Switch Design — Elaborate, Richly Textured, Easy-to-Use
Since the controls—the volume dial, switches, and so on—are the parts of the amplifier which users actually touch and feel directly, their surface texture and design were created with the strictest attention to detail. Individual controls such as the volume or input switching dials, emanate a richly elegant feel thanks to the use of cut aluminum knobs. Switches, including the power switch, were made with obsessive attention to texture in every detail; they were shaped with refined craftsmanship so that when they are raised or lowered, the gap between the switch and panel surface is impossible to see.
Remote Control with Simple Design and Superior Texture
The supplied remote control features a design complementary to the aluminum panel of the amplifier itself, with a simple, easy-to-understand button layout and
gorgeous metallic texture. In addition to the basic volume adjustment and input switching controls of the A-S3000, it can also be used for operation of the companion CD-S3000.

20 Oklahoma Sooners (10-3)
@Missouri Tigers (14-0)
Tuesday, January 03
Mizzou Arena
Attendance: 15,061
20 Oklahoma
Columbia, MO (Sports Network) - Kim English totaled 23 points and nine rebounds, and No. 7 Missouri shot the lights out in taking down Oklahoma, 87- 49, in the Big 12 opener for both programs.
The Tigers (14-0, 1-0 Big 12) came in as the nation's best shooting team and continued their torrid stretch by hitting 59.3 percent from the field and 12- of-21 from three-point range to stay undefeated.
Marcus Denmon added 20 points and seven rebounds, while Ricardo Ratliffe and Michael Dixon each scored 13 points in the rout.
"Obviously a great win for us, I thought our guys played extremely well," Missouri head coach Frank Haith said. "I think these guys were really excited about getting into league play."
Oklahoma (10-3, 0-1), in its first true road test, made 33.3 percent of its shots and was led by Andrew Fitzgerald's 18 points.
Missouri scored on its first three possessions for a 7-0 lead, and one of English's five three-pointers made it 16-6 six minutes into the game.
A Fitzgerald jumper cut the deficit to 20-16 near the midway point, but Dixon bookended a subsequent 10-2 run with a pair of three-pointers.
The Tigers shot 60.7 percent over the opening 20 minutes and took a healthy 43-25 lead into the intermission.
The hosts maintained their offensive efficiency out of the break, hitting on their first four touches with Matt Pressey's make from behind the arc yielding a 54-30 advantage.
The difference never dipped below 22 the rest of the way.
"We knew that it would be a tough challenge to come in here, but not offering anymore resistance than we did was quite surprising," Oklahoma head coach Lon Kruger said.

Edward Hopper. "Edward Hopper, the best-known American realist of the inter-war period, once said: 'The man's the work.
Something doesn't come out of nothing.' This offers a clue to interpreting the work of an artist who was not only intensely private, but who made solitude and introspection important themes in his painting. EDIT: EDWARD HOPPER. Pdf_E._Hopper.pdf (Objet application/pdf) Edward Hopper Review. Edward Hopper saw an America that no other painter had got right.
Now we can't see it without seeing him. by Robert Hughes (1995) Edward Hopper died in 1967, nearly 30 years ago, but he remains one of those artists whose work—no matter how familiar and often reproduced it has become—comes up fresh whenever you see it. This diffident son of a Nyack, New York, dry-goods merchant had a long working life, almost all of it in America, and a sober style, some of which came from France and particularly from Manet and Daumier.
One of his few public utterances—in 1927, to the effect that "now or in the near future, American art should be weaned from its French mother"—used to be taken by cultural America-firsters as a manifesto of secession, but it wasn't. Edward Hopper. Edward Hopper, American Realist Artist, Urban Genre-Painter: Biography, Art Style, Famous Paintings: "House by the Railroad", "Nighthawks", "Gas" Recognition and Commercial Success The 1920s finally brought Hopper the breakthrough he sought.
His etchings began to receive a degree of public recognition, and his oil painting (as in New York Interior, 1921; New York Restaurant, 1922) - if not yet appreciated by curators and exhibition juries - was becoming more inspired. He also began painting watercolours outdoors during the summer at Gloucester, a small town on the Massachusetts coast, except that while other painters were fully absorbed painting seascapes and scenic views, Hopper was fascinated by the large Victorian houses built by rich sea captains during the previous century.
Hopper l'illusionniste. Edward Hopper (18821967) Edward Hopper was born in Nyack, New York, a town located on the west side of the Hudson River, to a middle-class family that encouraged his artistic abilities.
After graduating from high school, he studied briefly at the Correspondence School of Illustrating in New York City (1899–1900), and then he enrolled in classes at the New York School of Art (1900–1906). In his shift from illustration to the fine arts, he studied with William Merritt Chase, a leading American Impressionist painter, and with Robert Henri, who exhorted his students to paint the everyday conditions of their own world in a realistic manner.
His classmates at the school included George Bellows, Guy Pène du Bois, and Rockwell Kent. After working as an illustrator for a short time, Hopper made three trips abroad: first to Paris and various locations across Europe (1906–7), a second trip to Paris (1909), and a short visit to Paris and Spain the following year (1910).

Asian College of Journalism chairman Sashi Kumar, one of the first recognisable faces on Indian television, gives a recap of his career to Sudhish Kamath
"I got into journalism by chance," says Sashi Kumar as he dives into a flashback on a rainy afternoon at the Asian College of Journalism which he runs – the greens of the campus serving as the proverbial metaphor for the pastures the profession offered him.
It was cinema that his heart beat for. "(But) the only stepping stone to cinema in the late seventies was television." So Sashi Kumar went on to become a producer for Doordarshan in the Madras of yore. He independently produced documentaries, and soon, in the eighties, started writing on cinema for The Hindu.
"Out of the blue, Mr. Kasturi of The Hindu asked me if I would like to be their West Asia correspondent. I had no track record of political writing or reporting but he had a hunch that I could do it. I was in Bahrain for two years but the television bug was biting me and I came back."
After a brief stint with Mudra Videotech, he joined PTI when they started producing content for TV. "When the skies opened up during the Gulf War, television was going through a liberated phase. I proposed to the PTI board that we should think of starting the first independent TV network in India. The board sat on it. I was getting a bit frustrated. Asianet was a name I almost incorporated for PTI. So with the permission of PTI, I decided to do it on my own." Since he hailed from Kerala, he decided to start from home turf. A Malayalam channel and a cable network, SatComm. How did he raise the capital?
"That was the difficult part," he admits. He put in all his savings. Together with an uncle who was a trader from Russia, he mobilised the first crore. "The first break came from Central Bank. It gave me the first loan of three crore rupees and then other institutions started adding to that. One didn't know if the channel would continue to be on air for the next month and it was that situation for well over two years. Lending institutions were asking the same questions: 'You say you are going to break even in two years. What do we mortgage? The satellite up there?'" he laughs. "But when it turned around, it turned around quite grandly, quite majestically."
Ultimately, he says, it was all good faith and goodwill. "Despite everything, we managed to pay salaries on time. I am quite proud of that. We had an excellent dedicated team who was there for the excitement in it," says Sashi Kumar about the entrepreneurial phase of his life. "The total investment added up to Rs. 18 crore over two years. At that time, transponders were far more expensive than now. The hardware was more expensive than the software. We got a lot of software, including movie rights, relatively cheap. We had the early-bird advantage."
Within a decade, the Asianet network turned profitable and Sashi Kumar divested his stake in the company after reaching a flashpoint with his uncle. "Yes, I made some money," he understates with a gentlemen-don't-tell smile.
But the growth of media, he says, does not necessarily mean growth of journalism. "There's been a paradigmatic shift in the rules of journalism then and now. What was happening for a long time is that perhaps a lot of subjectivities were masquerading as objective. Today, it's far more open and honest. But at the same time, today journalism and journalists have also become a part of the problem. There's a lot more of the campaign variety of journalism, there's a lot less of reporting as being a player yourself. Then, of course, the obvious things like paid news, corruption and ambition."
With the media becoming big, he says, journalism has actually shrunk in terms of values. He had nursed a desire to start a journalism school since his days at Asianet. Divesting his stake provided the perfect opportunity to dive straight into setting up the not-for-profit Media Development Foundation. "We were going to start a college when Manoj Kumar Sonthalia of the Goenka group suggested that we could take over the ACJ in Bangalore. No money exchanged hands. We were absolutely happy to carry that forward." Thus, yet another dream came true.
But his heart continues to beat for cinema. "I still like cinema but the world has changed a lot. But I need to reassess my approach to cinema. I did make a film ('Kaya Taran'). It was a financial disaster. I just spent a lot of money. Maybe I will do that again. But I wanted to give that a break and see if I can do something that has a fighting chance at the box office. Can I make a film with my own resources? Of course I can. But why should I?"
