Article brought to you by: Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)Decoding the Encyclical Letter 'Lumen Fidei', Light of Faith
By Fr Dr Santhosh Sebastian Cheruvally
August 27th, 2013 Catholic Online (www.catholic.org) Lumen Fidei categorically states that faith illuminating life means Christ affecting our life and our convictions. Indeed a christification of our life and commitments, convictions and values are called for. It is in this sense, "Faith in Christ brings salvation because in him our lives become radically open to a love that precedes us, a love that transforms us from within, acting in us and through us." (Cf. Chapter 1, no. 20.) The encyclical is clear: What is communicated in the Church, what is handed down in her living Tradition, is the new light born of an encounter with the true God, a light which touches us at the core of our being and engages our minds, wills and emotions, opening us to relationships lived in communion ALLAHABAD, India (Catholic Online) - Given in Rome, at Saint Peter's, on 29 June, the Solemnity of the Holy Apostles Peter and Paul, in the year 2013, the first encyclical letter of the pontificate of Pope Francis, Lumen Fidei - Light of Faith - serves as both a catechetical and missionary boost to Catholic Christian faith at a time when faith, church life, as well as church structures and authorities, - are being called into question. Sometimes, the questioning itself comes from the dichotomies each contains and carries as both a strength and a weakness. One must not forget that this papal encyclical letter has a time reference and a context. That is, some of the things apparently more negative (humanly speaking) which are happening around us, such as; the various church scandals and their aggressive highlighting by the media, the surprising exit of Pope Benedict XVI and the election of a new Pope. These are often greeted with cautious enthusiasm as well as anxiety etc. In fact, the heart of the message which Lumen Fidei (The Light of Faith) communicates provides an assurance that both consoles and consolidates the faith community by calling its attention towards a genuine awareness of the gift of faith- who is Christ Jesus Himself. Pope Francis humorously opined that this encyclical is a work of \'four hands\'. This indicated that it contains content from the thoughts of his predecessor Pope Benedict XVI regarding the already set context of the golden jubilee of the Second Vatican Council and the Year of Faith which was already inaugurated. In addition, it has a serial and organic connection to the encyclicals of Benedict XVI - Deus Caritas est and Spe Salvi. In addition, the letter offers the characteristically down to earth teaching style of the present Pope Francis as he infuses the encyclical with his peculiar way of connecting the teaching to the heart of the people and not simply to the head of the people. Even though both are equally important! The encyclical is brief in length. It has four chapters (Chapter I We have believed in love, cf. 1 Jn 4: 16, Chapter II Unless you believe, you will not receive, (cf. Is 7: 9) Chapter III: I delivered to you what I also received, (cf 1 Cor 15: 3), Chapter IV: God prepares a city for them, (cf Heb 11: 16) with a striking introduction that draws from the sources of two diametrically opposed characters from history, as regards their convictions on faith- namely Justin Martyr and the german atheist philosopher Nietzsche. While the former stands for the apologetic acceptance of the faith- often represented by practicing Christians, the latter stands for the contemporary challenges and questions to the faith and to God. Hence, Lumen Fidei teaches: Christian faith is centred on Christ; it is the confession that Jesus is Lord and that God has raised him from the dead (cf. Rom 10:9), Cf. Chapter 1, no. 15. What does then love mean for a Christian? Again the encyclical declares: Christians, on the contrary, profess their faith in God's tangible and powerful love which really does act in history and determines its final destiny: a love that can be encountered, a love fully revealed in Christ's passion, death and resurrection. Thus the encyclical has an emphatic Christological centrality as regards faith and lover or charity. This is the reason that Pope Benedict XVI had already taught that faith and charity go hand in hand. Charity is not thus an Italian dressing on a yummy, scrummy salad. Therefore, social systems and political values are all affected by and aided by Christian heritage and the Church and its structures, including the personal and family life of a Christian. All are challenged by the encyclical. It calls us all to an examination of conscience as to the existence of the dichotomy between faith and charity in our own lives. The second Chapter, with a reference to the verse from Isaiah, offers a charismatic approach and orientation to faith. Without faith we cannot see God's acts and the power of God in our own life. It also has an opening to the hitherto existing political systems and rational and scientific achievements and searches happening in our age. It offers an uncanny, interreligious richness when it states: God is light and he can be found also by those who seek him with a sincere heart. (Cf chapter 2, no. 35.) In other words, the Christian faith does not run away or retreat in the face of the political and scientific issues and challenges of the age. In fact, in terms of human welfare and the meaning of life, Christian faith is seen as the mystery of Christ Jesus's involvement in the creation and human pilgrimage of life and its destiny. Christian faith transformatively contributes to the secular goals set by rational and scientific systems and thought. It also daringly corrects them when they turn upon themselves as idols trying to take the place and plan of God. At the same time, the encyclical serves both as a warning and indicator to theologians to do their duty within the framework of enhancing the faith with respect and sensitivity shown to the faith community and to the teachings of the Church. Moving further, faith is dealt with as dynamic, situating God and human beings, our hearing and our response. Tradition is not to be seen as a nostalgic remembrance of something outgone and outdated. Rather, it contains a living responsibility of passing itself on to another generation. At the same time, tradition should not become an escapist haven or the refuge of the obscurantist, never ready to respect the present time and its unique cries and challenge. Hence the encyclical is clear: What is communicated in the Church, what is handed down in her living Tradition, is the new light born of an encounter with the true God, a light which touches us at the core of our being and engages our minds, wills and emotions, opening us to relationships lived in communion. (Cf. Chapter 3, no. 40). Thus, the transmission of the faith, from the magisterium to the catechist, from parish priest to the parents in the family, from theologians to the teachers in the schools, is a dynamic missionary responsibility for everyone in the present time and in every context. Characteristic of Pope Francis, the encyclical invites Christians to reflect on the natural end of their faith journey and life not just as heavenly city but also of "building in charity a city based on relationships in which the love of God is laid as a foundation.\"(Cf. chapter 4, no. 51). Seen within the context of present day political and economic systems, which have also affected the structures and life style of the Church, the letter calls for making faith sensible and available to those outside of the mainstream of the society. Charity and justice, shown in favour of the suffering and the poor, are, in fact, the very essence of the Christian faith. Francis offers two striking images and figures which the world and the church easily understand but often refuse to follow, because of the inherent "inconvenience" they present to one's own concept of safety in the world. However, Francis has the guts and authority to present them as challenging the stereotypes of faith which become institutionalized so often in formalism and create a \'culture of appointments\' which can present hindrances to access rather than facilitate access to faith. Lumen Fidei thus categorically states that faith illuminating life means Christ affecting our life and our convictions. Indeed a christification of our life and commitments, convictions and values are called for. It is in this sense, "Faith in Christ brings salvation because in him our lives become radically open to a love that precedes us, a love that transforms us from within, acting in us and through us." (Cf. Chapter 1, no. 20.) ----- Fr Dr Santhosh Sebastian Cheruvally is a priest of the Catholic Diocese of Gorakhpur in North India and is currently a professor of Dogmatic Theology at St Joseph's Regional Seminary, Allahabad, India, affiliated with the Pontifical Urban University, Rome.

However, as far as a design perspective goes, a good design does not require a lot of fluff, it fact it is far better without it. Simplicity, and small touches of style here a there bespeak elegance and are easy on the eye. For example, consider when you eat at a fancy restaurant, how does your dish (esp your desert) come served to you? Don't you often find that it is a small portion of neatly arranged food in the center of a much larger plate? The empty space (perhaps splashed occasionally with a light garnish) serves to draw your attention to the food itself and make it more appealing. The entire idea of this site is to make it at once functional, easy to read and with just enough interesting notes so that you aren't bored or repelled. Granted, to that end, there may a few adjustments to the current style that are warranted, but by far, the most beautiful sites are the ones that don't try to fill every conceivable space with some 'nifty trick'. -- Jeremy Huntwork

Vinegar 101
by Toby Amidor in Healthy Tips, August 11, 2011
Vinegar made our list of top 10 healthy flavor boosters. With so many varieties available, choosing the right vinegar to compliment your dish can get confusing. These vinegar basics will get your taste buds on track.
Vinegar Fundamentals
The word vinegar originates from the French word vin aigre, which translates into "sour wine." Vinegars are made by introducing bacteria into a fermented liquid like wine, beer or cider and converting it into acetic acid (that's the sour flavor you taste in vinegar). As for nutrients, most varieties of vinegar contain about 3 calories and not much else.
Vinegar has been used for thousands of years as a cooking ingredient, condiment and preservative (like for pickles!). The acidity in vinegar makes it a great addition to marinades—the acidity helps break down the protein fiber and softens the meat. Vinegar can also be used to balance out the flavor of dishes and cut down bitterness.
Common Varieties
Here's the lowdown on the most common varieties and where to use them:
Balsamic Vinegar
This dark red, sweet vinegar has been produced in Italy for over 800 years. It's typically made from red or white wine from Trebbiano grapes. The wine is aged in wooden barrels for up to 50 years. The longer this vinegar ages, the sweeter and thicker (and pricier) it gets. Many balsamic vinegars are made with the addition of sulfites, which some asthmatics may be allergic to.
Best for: dishes with strawberries or tomatoes, salad dressings, sauces, soups, marinades, grilled meats, and poached fruit.
Cider vinegar
Also known as apple cider vinegar, this vinegar has a rich and fruity flavor and is pale brown in color. It's made from fermented apple cider, unpasteurized apple juice, or pulp and isn't very pricey.
Best for: Chutneys, hearty stews, marinades, sweet pickles, and coleslaw dressing.
White Vinegar
Also known as distilled vinegar or distilled white vinegar, this colorless vinegar is made from grain alcohol. It has a very high acidity and overpowering sour flavor. This inexpensive vinegar is also useful for household chores like washing windows and cleaning coffee pots.
Best for: Preserving and pickling.
Rice Vinegar
This vinegar is made from fermented rice and is commonly referred to as rice wine vinegar. It has a mild, sweet flavor and is much less acidic than other vinegars.
Best for: Salad dressing, seafood marinades, and Japanese and Chinese cuisine like sushi and pickled ginger and seafood.
Red Wine Vinegar
This vinegar is made from red wine and is typically aged in wooden barrels. Its strong flavor makes it a perfect choice for hearty dishes. Both red and white wine vinegars are typically used in French and Mediterranean cuisines and are much less acidic than cider or distilled vinegar.
Best for: Stews, sauces, marinades and salad dressings
White Wine Vinegar
Depending on the wine it was derived from, the flavor of this versatile vinegar can range from mild to very tangy. Champagne vinegar (made from the bubbly beverage) is pale in color with a mild and delicate flavor.
Best for: Vinaigrette, vegetable dishes, soups and stews and pickled veggies.
Purchasing and Storage Tips: Choose vinegar that's clear in color, not cloudy or muddy. Store unopened in a cool, dry place for 1 to 2 years. Once opened, vinegar can last for up to 3 months.

Young Set To Go vs Braga
Ashley Young will be involved in the club's Champions League clash with Braga on Tuesday, Sir Alex Ferguson has confirmed today.
A knee injury has kept the England international out of United's side since August.
But Fergie now says that the 27 year old is fit and ready and will play some part in the Champions League game.
The United boss told reporters: "We've got Ashley Young back and he'll be involved tomorrow. We've got Nani, Antonio Valencia, Ryan Giggs - plenty of wide players. I have an issue in terms of picking the team. Hopefully I get it right.
"Shinji Kagawa didn't play on Saturday so he can prepare for tomorrow. Also, Stoke's a different team to any other side he's played. But mainly it was to give him a rest before tomorrow."

Khloe is always posting inspiration messages on her Instagram and Twitter but this time it feels like a total dig at her ex!
Khloe Kardashian is moving on and wants the world to have a piece of advice she's learned along the way! The reality star posted a message on Dec. 26 about surrounding yourself with good people.
Khloe Kardashian: Did She Diss Lamar Odom In New Instagram
We all know that Khloe has been through a lot with her soon-to-be ex-husband Lamar Odom. The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star is back to being a single woman and doling out advice for her over seven million Instagram followers.
This definitely sounds like it could be about Lamar. We know that she and Lamar had issues over his alleged drug use and infidelity.
Lamar Not Speaking To Khloe After Split
HollywoodLife.com first told you Lamar wanted to "be cool" with Khloe, she filed for a divorce but a lot has changed.
"He's not going to talk to her," a source close to former NBA star tells us. "This is all Khloe's doing. He wanted to be cool with her after all this and that could possibly work out over time but since Khloe's done this, every conversation they will have will be through attorneys. That's just how it's got to be."
Khloe & Matt Kemp's Gym Date — Workout Together
This rumored lovebirds hit up the gym right before Kris Jenner's big Christmas Eve party. The two both spent the evening partying together.
Although they haven't come out as a couple, it looks like they are really falling hard for each other.

Khloe is clearly comforting herself with inspirational writings. I doubt this is about Lamar since she still loves him. Must be brutal to love someone and have to let them go to save yourself. She deserves kudo's for doing this and say what you want about the Kardashians, they pull together in tough times and circle each other with love and support.

To be quite honest lamar was khloe's locked in marriage contract. lamar wanted out several years ago but a marriage contract was signed and sealed for a number of years. Remember the reality show khloe and lamar, well it stopped right in it's tracks and soon after it was a wrapped to never return right. Khloe was never an angel herself in her Paradise marriage as she lied on every episode making people believe that her paradise marriage was unbreakable which became breakable at the end. When a person/s live with a lie so long that lie becomes exposed. Lamar is a good man who signed on a contract to give the reality show ratings, if he married khloe. Inspite what people thing khloe, put that message out to lamar.really I am quite sure there was an agreement that they would date other people on the side (the contract marriage was for the show only),and for things to stay private. Khloe, on the other hand became much more aggressive in the fake out marriage and wanted it to be real it wasn't real at all. No one will ever know the real truth of it all, only lamar,khloe,kardashian clan E! producers, and the camera men etc. Khloe, will always want lamar, because remember khloe and mommie dearest are the ones who threw lamar under the bus,after knowing he was cheating and had a suppose drug addiction. Lamar never attacked anyone he stayed MUM, and khloe and kkkk clan is still trying to bash this poor guy. Khloe filed her divorce paper on mama's orders so now she has someone new. Lamar, he is happy and will be just fine as long as he keeps his distance from khloe and all the kardashians. The family that calls themselves CURSED.

Who cares, lamar needs not to worry himself about what his ex-wife is doing he needs to focus on his own life. That's over and done. As much as it may hurt he has to respect that she couldn't stay in the marriage any more. If she has already moved on with someone else that's her choice, no one is shocked about that, this is Kris Jenner's daughter , look at what they do,meet some one and sleep with them in one night, marry total strangers….these are not things normal people with morals do. And then when it doesn't work out its all the other person fault, well what do you expect when you give up the goodies with out him having to work for it. I've yet to hear any of these trolls accept responsibility for anything that they may have done wrong in any of these failed marriages. I hope lamar gets back on track to the person he used to be. He was a good basketball player on top of his game with a great future ahead of him, he needs to get back to that. I am sorry for all my black brothers who get themselves mixed up with this crew,your career is over, your life is ruined. These dudes are suckers for the katrashian punishment.

Bulls**t!! She resisted her mother's urgings to divorce Lamar sooner. She loved him, but enough was enough. Are you kidding me? She has a mind of her own, and the mind has spoken, She moved on when SHE was good and ready to do so. Khloe is a very strong individual, make no mistake about that. She was Lamar's rock, everyone knows that.

Ralph Burke Tyree (June 30, 1921 – January 15, 1979) was born in Irvine, Kentucky and moved to Delhi, California as an infant. He was awarded a scholarship to the California College of the Arts (Oakland) for a portrait he painted of his future wife, Marguerite (Margo) Almeida and also studied at the San Francisco School of Fine Arts. From 1942 to 1946, he worked as an artist in the public relations department of the United States Marine Corps.[1] He painted in Fiji, the Gilbert Islands, Japan, the Mariana Islands, Samoa, and Japan, prior to moving to Maui in 1964.[2] He is best known for his nude and semi-nude paintings of women of the Pacific islands. Burke Tyree died at age 57 of a massive heart attack in Crows Landing, California.

In Powhatan County, the fire department volunteers asked for a full-time chief to be appointed for several years. The chief would be a "strong" chief, ultimately having complete control over the five volunteer fire companies. After years of trying to get this position filled, the position was successfully filled by retired Chesterfield Battalion Chief Rick Bucher.
However, after Bucher was in office for less than three years, a new Board of Supervisors made the decision to not fund several key agency heads, including the position of fire chief. The two part-time county assistant chiefs were left to attempt to fill the void left by Bucher's vacancy.
Now, Carroll Smith, the volunteer fire chief at Fire Company 1 in the county's Courthouse area is pleading to have the position filled again.
From PowhatanToday.com:
The impact of the vacancy has been felt on other levels as well. Without a full-time chief, Smith said, the five county fire departments have no one to coordinate operations between them and no one to act as an advocate when it comes to issues before the board.
Bucher was a unifier, said Smith, and was able to make sure that the needs of the various departments were being met. "Right now, we're losing all that," said Smith.
Powhatan County Supervisor Carson Tucker, who recently met with Smith to discuss his concerns, said there is little doubt in his mind as to the importance of the position. "It's not a decision on whether the county needs such a position – that's not in question," said Tucker. "It's strictly an issue of money."

Every platform I own has been a major aggravation this past month
by ActionRemix on Comments
PC: For Civ 5 requiring I go to the main menu and then restart the program to change graphic settings and for still stuttering at the lowest possible settings (even though I can run Crysis). For Hamachi losing all networking functionality. Wii: For Hallway of Zelda: Forward Sword. For the worst jaggies I've seen in a video game since the PS1. For my nunchuck losing waggle detection. PS3: For running Skyrim at 15-20 fps. For my PS3 freezing halfway through the Back to Karkand download multiple times. For the new Oman. For requiring 8 hours to format its HDD. I think I should give the PS3 the lose, but I'm not sure if I can give another platform the win. I honestly had more fun winding wire around a tube than playing a video game in the past month. Maybe I'm getting out of modern gaming altogether.

Of course, the move to Lighttpd is not a small one, especially if our Apache configuration makes use of its many features. Systems tied into Apache as a module may make the move hard or even impossible without porting the module to a Lighttpd module or moving the functionality into CGI programs, if possible. We can ease the pain by moving in small steps. There are some obstacles on the way from Apache to Lighttpd. But a planned and careful approach will allow us to keep our server working while we change it.Lighttpd supports the FastCGI, SCGI, and CGI interfaces to external programs, permitting web applications written in any programming language to be used with this server. Excellent performance for PHP, a particularly popular language, has received special attention. Additionally, Lighttpd has become popular within the Ruby on Rails community.

"Prince William's baby brother flirts and flies Apache helicopters with equal aplomb," the magazine wrote. The list isn't very Hollywood specific (although both George Clooney and Jack Nicholson made the cut). Instead, in addition to the prince, people like Ralph Lauren's son, Andrew, President Obama's speechwriter Jon Favreau, and Greek shipping heir Stavros Niarchos (who has dated both Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton) snagged a spot.Most hilariously, still-just-a-high-schooler Conor Kennedy made the cut. The magazine said it best: "A mere child to some, this Deerfield Academy junior and son of Robert Kennedy Jr. was a gateway to the compound for Taylor Swift. Now he's lyric fodder."

Many games on BYOND have admin/GM/whatever systems that give certain players and the owner power over everyone else in the game. While, I think the owner should have verbs to be able to test things out and whatnot, I personally believe that games that have ban/boot/mute/whatever verbs are poorly programmed games. I know that's a strong statement, and I know it's not entirely true, but for the most part, it is.
I've been on games and will say something... "off color", and the moderators will get mad and say things like "o u cnt say that. i ban u if u say that again". I really feel like if your game has rules that people have to follow, you suck at programming. Yeah, I said it. Cause if your rules are like:
1) Do not spam OOC.
2) Don't kill in safe zones
3) No AFK training
4) No multikeying
5) Don't say offensive things through chat.
I will say it again, you can't program. Why do I throw out such a strong statement? Is it because I mad? Nope. It's because I believe it's true. To tell people not to spam OOC shows that you don't have the knowledge to create an even simple newb spam block system within your game. It's not that hard. If() statements, a variable or two, and the sleep() proc are a few of the basic things you need to make a newb spam block system.
To say "Don't kill in safe zones" is to say that you have no idea how use area. Or even the Enter() proc for that matter. It's as simple as
turf/NOKILL Entered() src.canKill=0.
No AFK Training? This is just too simple to stop. Make it so they CAN'T. You honestly think someone's gonna stand around on your game clicking their mouse 1000 times to gain levels by kicking a dummy?
Obviously, I'm making a point by now. I don't like admin or GM systems. They are pointless. The only reason people use them is so they feel like they have power over all the players. Believe me, I know. This is all coming from a guy who had 40 players on a game, along with 2 other GMs, renamed everyone to offensive, stupid names, killed them, then banned them from the game. Funny thing is, the other owner came on, got pissed unbanned everyone, and had to rename everyone back to their original names xD. I've had some times abusing powers, but the funny thing is, the game had no rules at all. You could do whatever you want.
Basically my main point is, don't tell players that can't do something because you can't program an effective defense to it. Don't ban a player for your ignorance.
What yall think?

And Miss Moneypenny, a staple Bond character who hasn't been seen since the Pierce Brosnan films, will make an appearance as well, played by Naomie Harris. Read More »

Ryegrass can make great feed, but there are several types and growers need to know the differences, says Bruce Anderson, University of Nebraska extension forage specialist.
He says perennial ryegrass may be the highest-quality perennial grass in the world and is grown widely in mild climates. But it doesn't like hot, dry summers or dry winters, so it doesn't survive well in Nebraska.
"I suggest using it only in mixtures for short-term use with animals that respond greatly to high quality, like dairy cows or stockers," says Anderson.
There are two types of annual ryegrass: Westerworld and Italian. Westerworld grows fast after spring planting but goes to seed in early summer. If grazed or clipped, it usually regrows, although slowly, and forms seed heads again. It won't survive Nebraska winters, so it's best used as an emergency forage, says Anderson.
The best Italian ryegrasses act like biennials — they don't form seed heads the first year. After planting, they start growing fast in about June and continue growing until a killing frost and all the growth is high-quality leaves. Winter survival isn't very dependable and varies from year to year and by variety.
Botanically, Westerworld can be called Italian ryegrass, sometimes causing confusion, says Anderson.
"So be very specific when buying these ryegrasses," he advises.

OneSteel revises down earnings guidance
PUBLISHED: 02 Nov 2011 09:52:00 | UPDATED: 03 Nov 2011 06:46:56PUBLISHED: 02 Nov 2011 PRINT EDITION: 03 Nov 2011Ayesha de Kretser
Australia's second-biggest steel producer said its interim earnings could more than halve compared with a year ago as falling iron ore prices add to pressure on its increasingly unprofitable steel manufacturing business.
OneSteel shares sank more than 16 per cent yesterday after the company said it expects underlying first-half earnings to fall to between $55 million and $75 million in the 2012 financial year, from $116 million in the second half of last year.
Deutsche Bank analyst Emily Behncke said there was a "significant risk'' OneSteel would have to undertake a capital raising if current conditions persisted or risk a breach of its debt covenants, which had been stretched by the high-priced acquisition of iron-ore producer WPG capital raising.
"If iron ore prices continue into the second half of 2012 . . . in line with the forward curve, OneSteel may be very close to an equity raising,'' Mrs Behncke wrote in a note last night.
Macquarie Group analyst Doug Macphillamy said the market had been expecting $310 million in full- year earnings. The headline result would also be affected by a $20 million charge for costs arising from its $320 million acquisition or iron ore assets from WPG that was made during the half.
The steelmaker blamed the strong Australian dollar and the rapid decline in US dollar-denominated iron ore prices over the past seven weeks for the slump in its earnings, as steel prices remain under pressure worldwide.
"The company has revised down its earnings expectations for November and December due to the recent collapse in iron ore prices, which are now around 30 per cent below their levels three weeks ago of approximately $US170 per tonne [62 per cent Fe]," OneSteel said in a statement.
Mrs Behncke questioned the acquisition price of WPG after the broker adjusted its long- term iron ore price down 2.2 per cent to $US87 a tonne in financial year 2015.
"Following our commodities review and updated capex assumptions our updated net present value for the WPG assets declines – 15 per cent to $210 million from $247 million, largely due to long-term iron ore forecasts, which we think implies OneSteel is paying a very full price for WPG's asset," Mrs Behncke said.
OneSteel's manufacturing division recorded a $185 million loss last year as declining private spending and flailing growth in new construction hit local demand for its steel products.
The Reserve Bank of Australia's move to cut interest rates has not come fast enough to stem the tide of losses, with Credit Suisse analyst Michael Slifirski predicting the 0.25 of a percentage point cut in the official cash rate would have practically no impact on boosting OneSteel's steel business. OneSteel is expected to announce a minor restructuring of its manufacturing business and has plans to cut 400 more staff from its books, saving $40 million a year.
"I don't think you'll even notice it," Mr Slifirski said of the interest rate move.
Mr Slifirski said while BlueScope had taken the "hard decision" to close half of its Port Kembla blast furnace capacity, OneSteel was unlikely to do the same at Whyalla, where it operates a single furnace.
"It can't shut Whyalla. If one thing is certain it's that volumes will eventually recover," Mr Slifirski said. But he warned it may take a long time for this to happen. "It won't be this year or next," he said.
OneSteel's earnings over the past two years had remained relatively sheltered from the slump in Australia's manufacturing industry because of its exposure to iron ore through its 6 million tonne a year export business in South Australia.
At its full-year result in August, the company said its mining operation was expected to produce more lower quality ore with around 58 per cent iron content, disappointing analysts.
The WPG acquisition and a further $280 million in spending to expand the port at Whyalla should see iron ore exports rise to 10 million tonnes – with port capacity to sustain a 12 million tonne a year operation – by the fourth quarter of calendar 2012.
