Examining the Positive & Negative Qualities
Of Various Versions & Translations
Of God's Holy Scriptures
by Al Maxey
The New Testament writings were published in 1963, and the entire Bible came out on July 31, 1970. The translators
worked for ten years before they felt this translation of the original Greek and Hebrew was ready for publication. These
scholars, among whom were members of the churches of Christ, have been called extremely conservative theologically.
It was their expressed goal to "give the Lord Jesus His proper place, the place which the Word gives Him." They
were committed to emphasizing in this work the "full deity of Jesus Christ." The majority of these
translators held doctoral degrees in biblical languages and literature, and had devoted their lives to the study of the
biblical text. Some of the strengths of their work of translation are as follows:
#1 --- The NASB is extremely literal in its rendering of the Greek and Hebrew.
Some have even claimed it is "unequaled in its faithfulness to the Greek and Hebrew texts." Others have labeled
this tendency "severely literalistic" (Bruce M. Metzger, Theology Today, April, 1976). As a result of the
effort to translate the original as literally as possible, the NASB is almost completely free from "paraphrasing
tendencies" (Dr. Jack P. Lewis). The NASB has kept the original word order of the Greek and Hebrew wherever
possible, as they believed this was "a means the writer used to accent and emphasize what he deemed most
important." Even conjunctions occurring in the original language texts have been retained, although they may be
unnecessary in English, "because the Holy Spirit led men to write that way." The NASB translators write, "Words
are faithfully rendered in the NASB even to conjunctions such as 'and' in the belief that these, too, helped
mirror the writer's style and manner of expression. These are often ignored in free translation." Warren Wilcox
writes, "The NASB renders the Greek verb tenses the most accurately of any modern translation!" He further writes
that it is to be commended for being "at its very center and heart, true to the Hebrew and Greek manuscripts."
#2 --- It has made an effort to place God's Word in easy-to-read, modern American
English. However, because of its extreme emphasis on being literal to the original text, "it has failed to attain current
English style and vocabulary in many instances. Its language is not contemporary and its English is not idiomatic"
(Dr. Jack P. Lewis). Although it does not reflect current English style and idiom, it certainly does reflect the original Hebrew and
Greek better than any other translation. To its credit, it considered faithfulness to the original style more important
than achieving current English style. It certainly does not "flow as well" as the NIV or the Living Bible, but for those who
are looking more for accuracy than style and flow, the NASB is hard to beat as a good study Bible. It is a good scholar's
#3 --- "It is a dignified translation; it is not colloquial; it does not use slang words;
it does not use things that you would be ashamed or embarrassed to use in a worship service or devotional reading"
(Warren Wilcox, Versions of the Bible: Their Strengths and Weaknesses).
#4 --- It has made extensive use of all the Greek and Hebrew manuscripts available,
in order to try and arrive at the best original text for its translation. It has also made full use of all recent archaeological
discoveries, including the Dead Sea Scrolls. Like the RSV, thirteen changes have been made to the text
of Isaiah alone based upon evidence from the Dead Sea Scrolls.
#1 --- Some feel that the NASB reflects a premillennial preference in some
passages of Scripture. For example: Isaiah 2:2 and Micah 4:1
read, "Now it will come about that in the last days, the mountain of the house of the Lord will be established as
the chief of the mountains, and will be raised above the hills; and all the nations will stream to it." The word "as"
is not actually in the text; it is the word "on" (which the NASB admits in a footnote in both places). Some
have regarded this as reflecting a premillenial bias.
Additionally, when the word "genea" (meaning "a generation of mankind") appears, the NASB will often
place in a footnote an alternate meaning of "race." Mark 13:30 reads, "Truly I say to you,
this generation will not pass away until all these things take place." The implication of the footnote is that
the Jewish race is really intended here.
#2 --- Like many translations and versions of the Bible, the NASB has fallen into
the trap of seeking to interpret, rather than translate, I Corinthians 7:36-38.
They have added the word "daughter" to the word "virgin," thus stating their belief that the passage is
referring to a father and daughter relationship. To their credit, they have placed the word "daughter" in
italics, thus indicating that this word is not in the original text, but that it has been added by the translators. Another
example of interpreting instead of translating is found in I Corinthians 2:13 ..... "combining
spiritual thoughts with spiritual words." Again, the NASB uses italics to show words which have
been added to the text. Although their understandings of these passages may well be correct, they are
nevertheless interpretations, and not simple, uncommented upon translations. This makes it
more commentary than translation.
#3 --- There are times when a Greek word or phrase may have more than one
meaning. The NASB has at times made this less clear by consistently translating a particular Greek word with just one
English word. Just as rendering a single Greek word with a wide variety of English words can cause confusion (as
in the KJV), so also can a lack of any variety at all be the cause of confusion in certain cases. For example: The word "sarx"
is consistently translated "flesh" in the NASB, even though Paul in his writings uses this word in several different
senses. In Romans 3:20 and 4:1 it is used to refer to the
physical body. In Romans 8:4, however, he uses it to denote the seat of one's sinful
passions (i.e.: a fleshly nature rather than a fleshly body). By selecting different words,
one could perhaps convey this distinction better.
#4 --- There are other occasions where the NASB will render two different Greek
words with just one English word, thus creating confusion. For example: The word "abolish" appears in
both Matthew 5:17 ("Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets;
I did not come to abolish, but to fulfill") and Ephesians 2:15 ("...by abolishing
in His flesh the enmity, which is the Law of commandments contained in ordinances..."). These are two different Greek
words, but this distinction is lost on the reader by using only one English word. This lack of distinction has also
led some to suggest that these two passages actually contradict one another, when in fact they do not.
A similar problem occurs in the KJV in Galatians 6:2, 5 where the word "burden"
is used in both verses ("Bear ye one another's burdens" ....... "every man shall bear his own burden"). These are
actually two different Greek words. The NIV and NASB, as well as other translations, have corrected this by translating
the first word as "burden" and the second word as "load." The NASB, like most translations, also fails to make a distinction
in John 21:15-17 between the words "agapao" and "phileo," both of
which appear in the text. It translates both words as "love," and in so doing the reader misses out on the true meaning
of this important exchange between Jesus and Peter.
#5 --- The NASB is not consistent in its use of "KJV pronouns" versus those of
20th century America. Pronouns such as "Thou," "Thine," "Thee," and "Thy" are retained in the Psalms, in prayers, or
whenever someone is addressing Deity. However, these are dropped in the majority of the text for the more common
"you" and "your." By continuing the use of these archaic forms in certain places in the Bible, the NASB carries on the
illusion that these words are somehow "holier," when in fact such a distinction in pronouns was never
made in the original Hebrew or Greek ..... or even in the KJV, for that matter!
#6 --- Some have criticized the NASB for its elaborate system of quotation marks
(demonstrating quotes within quotes within quotes, etc.). For example: Isaiah 36:10 ends
this way: "The Lord said to me, 'Go up against this land, and destroy it.'"'" II Kings 19:7;
II Chronicles 34:28; Haggai 1:2 all have three sets of quotation marks at the end.
Dr. Jack P. Lewis writes that the NASB "represents a step forward in the communication of God's Word, and it supplies
many insights into obscure passages." V.E. Howard, who is extremely critical of almost all new translations, has
not criticized the NASB, and in fact lists it as one of the only three translations he will accept (the KJV
and the ASV being the other two). Of all the modern translations, the NASB seems to be the one people have the least
difficulty accepting.

We examine trends in wage inequality in the US and other countries over the past four decades. We show that there has been a secular increase in the 90-50 wage differential in the US and the UK since the late 1970s. By contrast the 50-10 differential rose mainly in the 1980s and flattened or fell in the 1990s and 2000s. We analyze the reasons for these trends and conclude that a version of the skill biased technical change hypothesis combined with institutional changes (the decline in the minimum wage and trade unions) continues to offer the best explanation for the observed patterns of change.

"There are endless trails to bike, concerts to crash, art workshops for parents and kids—plus it's all stunningly affordable."
The Digs
The Stonebridge Inn has an enviable location in the heart of Snowmass Village, just 15 minutes from neighboring Aspen. Here, Ridge View Rooms are freshly renovated and boast flat-screen HDTVs, wireless Internet, small refrigerators, and views of the village and the mountain ridge beyond it.

Here are my picks for the Cy Young this year, along with the other popular candidates so you can make the choice as well:
American League
1. Bartolo Colon (19-7, 3.46 ERA, 1.15 WHIP, 145 Ks)
2. Johan Santana (13-7, 3.17 ERA, 1.00 WHIP, 207 Ks)
3. Mark Buerhle (15-8, 3.21 ERA, 1.21 WHIP, 132 Ks)
4. Jon Garland (17-9, 3.51 ERA, 1.17 WHIP, 94 Ks)
5. Mariano Rivera (39 saves, 4 blown, 1.39 ERA, 0.89 WHIP)
National League
1. Chris Carpenter (21-4, 2.31 ERA, 0.99 WHIP, 201 Ks)
2. Roger Clemens (12-7, 1.77 ERA, 0.97 WHIP, 175 Ks)
3. Dontrelle Willis (21-8, 2.49 ERA, 1.11 WHIP, 141 Ks)
I really think it's a 2 man race in both leagues, and if either one was picked I would not be surprised. Colon is carrying his team into the playoffs, and Santana missed a recent start and hasn't been as dazzling recently. Carpenter is an absolute machine, but Clemens stats are ridiculous and (much like Santana) his win totals are skewed because of the teams they play on.
Your picks, ladies and gentlemen?

Bret Boone, remember him? He was the guy that caused a lot of commotion on this particular blog over the All Star break. He was also the guy that hit .170 in 14 games with the Twins. Still don�t remember him? Consider yourself lucky.
It seems our erstwhile second baseman has taken the lead of our unfortunately-not-erstwhile president and completely ignored all reality � the bad stuff anyway. He thinks he can still play.
"I want to play again; I intend to play again," Boone told the Seattle Times.
He also claimed that teams did call him after he was released by the Twins on August 1, but told his agent to decline all offers. Apparently he plans to �re-dedicate� himself to the game during the offseason.
"This winter, I'll be hitting both the health club and the batting cage every day," he said. "My dad (former catcher and manager Bob Boone) will work with me on my swing, just like he did in 1997 and 2000.�
I hate to kick a guy when he�s down, but it�s time to trade the batting helmet for a headset Bret.

When you're sitting around the house with a broken ankle, there's not much to do (besides following your team's descent into mediocrity) beyond staring at the wall. And if you stare at that wall long enough, you might start to see writing on it. That's what Torii Hunter sees, at least, because he's selling his Golden Valley condo amidst whispers of a possible trade this winter. The portents? His salary next year will be above $10 million, and that kind of paycheck is almost unheard of in Twins Territory. Lew Ford is looking like a passable defensive replacement in center field, and $10 million is presumably enough to buy a couple of decent bats.
On the other hand, Torii, streaky as he sometimes is, is one of the few real hitters on the roster, and giving that up for the hope of an offensive upgrade doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Perhaps more importantly, Torii is the face of the Twins, by far its most Nike-friendly player, and while you could maybe possibly sort-of conceive of an argument for replacing his bat and his glove, it's hard to imagine anyone replacing his face: Santana's too content to let his pitching speak for him, Radke's talking retirement, and Mauer's too young. Hunter is the last and best representative of the Twins' 21st-century resurgence, and as budget-conscious as the team's management is, it seems hard to believe that getting rid of him would make good business sense.

Fulmer helps restart football at East Tenn. State
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (AP)
Former Tennessee coach Phillip Fulmer is returning to college football to help restart the program at East Tennessee State.
Fulmer, 62, will serve as a consultant and special assistant to athletic director Richard Sander as East Tennessee State relaunches a football program it had shut down for financial reasons in 2003. The recent College Football Hall of Fame inductee doesn't expect to coach the new team, which could begin playing at the Football Championship Subdivision level as soon as 2015.
''I never say never on anything, (but) it's not likely,'' Fulmer said Tuesday after a news conference announcing East Tennessee State's plans to bring back football. ''Nobody expects that, that I've talked to within the administration. I was really clear and frank, and they were grateful for that. That wasn't the place in life that I wanted to be. It's a great opportunity for somebody to come in and make their own legacy.''
Fulmer said the idea that he might coach East Tennessee State came up when university officials first told him the school might bring back football. Sander has indicated he would like to have a coach in place by mid-May.
''When they approached me about being the coach, it was very flattering, but I'm just at a different stage in life where I'm enjoying my children and my grandchildren and I'm enjoying the business that I'm in with some partners I'm dedicated to as well,'' Fulmer said. ''However I can help in this process, I will. I'm thrilled they're talking about doing it the right way.''
Fulmer coached Tennessee to a 1998 national title, posted a career record of 152-52 and was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame last year. He coached three games for Tennessee on an interim basis in 1992, took over the program in 1993 and remained in place until getting fired in 2008.
He faces a different type of challenge at East Tennessee State.
''Phil will kind of fill the role of `football expert,'" Sander said. ''He'll help in everything from hiring a coach to helping us identify architectural firms that we need to build facilities. He's run a total football program, so we're going to listen to him in every phase.''
East Tennessee State had an 80-year football tradition before shutting its program. A bid to revive the program during the 2006-07 school year failed when students voted down a $200 fee increase.
The decision to restart football came after a $125-per-semester student fee increase was approved by the Tennessee Board of Regents last week and by East Tennessee State's student government association in January.
''I always thought (the return of football) would happen,'' said Brock Pittman, an offensive lineman on East Tennessee State's 2003 team who attended Tuesday's news conference. ''There's never been a doubt in my mind. I just didn't know when. I'm just happy it's here. You couldn't ask for a better person and a better football mind than Coach Fulmer. He knows how a program should be run. He's proved that. They did a really good job getting him on board.''
East Tennessee State president Brian Noland worked on the Tennessee Higher Education Commission when the school dropped football and supported the decision at the time.
''But this is a different time, and we have the opportunity to build on the work that's been done in the past and to move forward and do this the right way.'' Noland said.
Noland said approval of the student fee increase makes a major difference. The fee is expected to generate about $2.5 million annually.
School officials still must choose a coach, decide on a site location for a future stadium and work toward finding a conference. East Tennessee State's athletic teams currently belong to the Atlantic Sun, which doesn't compete in football, though Atlantic Sun member Jacksonville plays football in the Pioneer League. Stetson and Mercer, two more Atlantic Sun members starting football programs this year, will also compete in the Pioneer League.
The Atlantic Sun issued a statement Tuesday saying ''we look forward to working with East Tennessee State and the A Sun membership as a whole in fully developing the opportunities for maximum competitive opportunity.''
Noland said the university also would have to add about three new women's sports to go along with football in order to meet Title IX requirements. As they announced plans to bring back football, school officials also started a kickoff fund asking alumni, fans and former players to donate $250 to receive priority toward future season tickets.
''They're not necessarily going to be Virginia Tech or Tennessee in three years,'' Fulmer said. ''Nobody should expect that. But we can be a viable program in four or five years and make it exciting for the students, make it exciting for the community and make a difference in this university.''

Depends where the problem is as to the cause. And of course you're right: an FR driver, however you load it, is never going to beat a good multiway (preferably horn loaded of course: I'm thinking Altec VOTT or Tannoy Westminster Royal HE here) on something like Pink Floyd, to cite but one evil example, but it should do better than you're describing if you get them loaded right, assuming the drivers are up to it of course. Out of curiosity, which drivers & cabinet are you running, if you don't mind my asking? Where's the main problem? Midband? LF? Higher up?

Hi Scott,
The driver is the Audio Nirvana 6.5 standard, the cabinet an old Fostex design, the BK201 here's a Plan. The combination sounds quite nice without any filters (although the BK201 has a pretty bad reputation) and goes down to ~60Hz. But as I said, with complex music, mainly Prog-Rock in my case, and higher levels, the high end really suffers. best, LC (...bought the drivers to build a BIB, but things have changed...) |

I know that feeling.
Well, there's nothing a cabinet can do to affect the sound over 1KHz as all it's really doing is providing a stable mounting for the driver. Below that... I reckon we can do better than a 201, though it's not a terrible box. Prog rock is some of the most demanding music to reproduce around so compared to, say, a VOTT, an FR unit is always going to struggle a bit. |

It ain't that bad Scott, the Horn is most probably gonna stay in my little collection, it's great fun for a lot of music even at high levels, and maybe one day the BIB will come -- simulations just looked to good.
But for now I started working on a 2-Way Design kind of simmular to the World Designs WD25T but with a waveguided tweeter. As I learned from the FRs some "beaming" in the mid and high range helps alot for a good soundstage and imaging -- less room effects (reflexions), more direct sound, more fun! |

• Pat Lehman activated from 7-Day DL
• Rafael Martin assigned from Potomac
• Erik Arnesen assigned from Harrisburg
• Chris Curran assigned from Potomac
Sources tell me that Steven Souza has been out of the lineup since Saturday due to a three-game suspension. The Curran transaction is inferred by virtue of his player card, not the transaction listings for the NY-Penn League.
4 Responses to "Transaction Update"
Is the Arnesen promotion just a spot start or is it until Stammen returns from replacing Slaten's spot? I kind of hope they give him another chance to pitch as he seems to have done well in his last outing minus the homerun.
Probably just a spot start, but we can always hope that he'll be back when they decide to move another "M" starter up to DC.
If it is only a spot start, I am surprised they keep giving them to him. Its like they are saying "you are not good enough to start at AA for us, but we'd like you to start at AAA". It doesn't make alot of sense, but I like seeing him get the opportunities because he seems to rise to the level and give it his best. He pitched effectively at AAA last year, especially after the All-Star break.
I don't think it's that. I think that they're saying that "we only think of you as a potential swing guy in the big leagues. We'd like you to have that swing man role at the highest level possible as one of the best swing men in our organization for your age." Basically, he's got the Josh Kown role from last year.

CineSquid takes your camera and sticks it
By Ben Coxworth
February 22, 2012
For the past several months, film-makers using DSLRs or small camcorders have had an interesting option available for getting smooth tracking shots - CineSkates. The product combines a GorillaPod Focus tripod, a BallHead X tripod head and three soft urethane wheels. Those wheels mount on the feet of the tripod, allowing it to make fluid, dolly-like movements. Cinetics, the company that makes Cineskates, has now announced a new member to its family. It's called the CineSquid, and it includes the same tripod and head, but with suction cup feet that allow it to adhere to almost any smooth surface.
It should be noted that the suction cups are of the heavy duty variety, incorporating a lever that pumps air out of them upon application - in other words, they're not those cheap things that you lick and then stick on a window. According to the company, they can be used to fasten the rest of the apparatus, along with a camera, onto the belly of an airplane flying at 200 mph (322 km/h).
Cinetics suggests that the device could also be attached to the exterior of moving cars, boats or trains, or used to obtain a very solid footing when doing time-lapse videography. Other suction cup mount systems do already exist, although most of those don't offer multiple points of attachment, nor do they incorporate the mounting possibilities offered by the bendy-legged GorillaPod.
The system is available via the company website as of today, for US$235. CineSkates owners, who already have the tripod and head, can purchase the suction cups on their own for $120. Shipping should begin next month.
Examples of footage shot using the CineSquid can be seen in the video below.

Canon PowerShot SD700 IS
Dennis Hissink : February 21th 2006 - 13:28 CET
Canon PowerShot SD700 IS :
Canon releases the Canon PowerShot SD700 IS. Redefining the boundaries of compact camera design, the new flagship of the PowerShot SD range fits a 4x optical zoom lens and Canon's optical Image Stabilizer (IS) technology into an incredibly slender body. Exquisitely styled with a unique 'Curvature and Stream' design, the camera incorporates a host of cutting-edge features and shooting options to satisfy the most demanding of photographers, including: ISO 800 and optical IS for flash-free indoor shooting, Canon's DIGIC II image processor, iSAPS and 9-point AiAF, Wide viewing angle 2.5 inch LCD screen, 16 shooting modes, My Colors photo effects, Widescreen (16:9) stills recording and 30fps VGA movies.
Canon SD 700 IS - Optical zoom
The 4x optical zoom lens incorporates an Ultra-High Refractive Index Aspherical (UA) lens to achieve a focal length range of 35-140mm (35mm equivalent) while allowing the camera to maintain a slender profile. The Canon SD 700 iS retains a real-image optical viewfinder despite its compact size, enabling users to frame without the LCD and further extend the camera's impressive 240-shot battery capacity. The Canon PowerShot SD700 IS camera will be available in April for an estimated selling price of $499.99.
Canon PowerShot SD700 IS camera - Image stabilizer
Smaller, lighter camera bodies are more susceptible to camera shake from handheld shots, especially in low light situations. The Canon PowerShot SD700 IS employs the same optical Image Stabilizer (IS) technology used in Canon's professional EF lenses to reduce the image blur caused by camera shake. IS allows for sharper flash-free shooting by enabling photographers to shoot at shutter speeds up to 3 stops slower. It also allows for steadier macro shooting when using the camera's 2cm Macro mode. To incorporate this technology into such a compact space, a new IS processor chip was developed by Canon's engineering team. The new chip accurately controls the movement of lens elements, delivers fast, precise shake correction, processing up to 4000 signals per second – and contributes to lower power consumption.
Canon PowerShot SD700 - Optical viewfinder and ISO
The 4x optical zoom lens incorporates an Ultra-High Refractive Index Aspherical (UA) lens to achieve a focal length range of 35-140mm (35mm equivalent) while allowing the camera to maintain a slender profile. The camera retains a real-image optical viewfinder despite its compact size, enabling users to frame without the LCD and further extend the camera's impressive 240-shot battery capacity. The Canon PowerShot SD700 IS incorporates ISO 800 to facilitate flash-free shooting indoors, ideal in low-light environments where the use of flash is not desirable or appropriate, such as churches and concerts. A new High ISO Auto setting automatically sets exposure using the higher range of ISO sensitivities, prioritising faster shutter speeds to avoid blur from camera shake or moving subjects.
Canon SD700 compact camera - Design
In keeping with its status as a new class of PowerShot, the Canon PowerShot SD700 IS has a resolutely unique appearance that sets it apart from its predecessors. In an evolution of the Perpetual Curve design found on the PowerShot SD550, the camera's elegant contours are accentuated by a striking tri-coloured design, 'ice metal' silver and 'moonlight' silver in satin and glossy finishes, complemented by an ebony black gloss surrounding the LCD screen. Designer Kosei Takahashi has dubbed his concept 'Curvature and Stream', a reference to the elliptic curves of each coloured segment and the bold, flowing lines that appear where segments meet.
PowerShot SD700 IS - LCD display and Movie
The large 2.5 inch LCD screen gracing the back of the Canon SD700 IS camera features a wide viewing angle for easy sharing of images. A selectable Grid Line Display helps with image composition, while Night Display aids screen visibility after dark. The camera's mode dial is embedded into the body of the camera, leaving thumb space clear for an easier grip. The camera's powerful movie features enable recording of 30fps VGA movie clips of up to 1GB. A 60fps QVGA mode is ideal for recording fast action sequences and analysing them in slow motion, while the handy Compact mode records up to 3 minutes of footage in low resolution for easy sharing via email.
Canon PowerShot SD 700 IS - My Colors and Wide Screen
Canon's My Colors photo effects can now be applied to images both before and after shooting, offering users more opportunities to customise their creations without having to connect to a PC. The Canon PowerShot SD700 IS offers 16 shooting modes including Manual mode. Preset scene modes assist with tricky lighting conditions, including an Underwater mode for shooting underwater with the optional Waterproof Case. Color Accent and Color Swap modes enable dramatic colour effects to be applied to both images and movies. A new Widescreen recording mode (2816 x 1584 recording pixels) allows for still image capturing in 16:9 format, perfect for viewing images on widescreen television or printing wide photos with a Selphy CP series Compact Photo Printer.
Canon PowerShot SD700 IS compact camera - PictBridge and Menu
A new Print menu simplifies printing of multiple images. Full PictBridge support means users can print directly to any PictBridge compatible printer without the need for a PC. The camera's ID photo and movie stills features are also available when connected to a Selphy CP Compact Photo Printer. A Print/Share button allows one-touch printing and easy uploads to Windows or Mac systems. The camera's menu system now features support for Arabic, bringing the total number of supported languages to 23.
Canon PowerShot SD700 IS digital camera accessories
An optional Waterproof Case (WP-DC5) allows users to bring the camera to a depth of up to 40 metres for compelling underwater shots. The Canon SD700 IS camera is compatible with MMC/SD cards, and comes supplied with a 16MB Canon memory card. Specially designed Weights (WW-DC1) are available to control camera buoyancy. Other accessories include:
- Canon HF-DC1 high power flash
- Canon DCC-70 soft leather case
- Canon PowerShot metal and leather neck straps
- Canon ACK-DC30 compact AC power adapter
Canon SD700 IS - DIGIC II processor
Canon's purpose-built DIGIC II (DIGital Imaging Core) image processor links all primary camera functions for maximum efficiency. High-speed processing results in outstanding responsiveness, rapid auto focus and extended continuous shooting ability. Advanced image processing algorithms deliver superb image detail and colour reproduction with accurate white balance and minimal noise. DIGIC II operates efficiently to extend battery life, for longer shooting on a single charge.
Canon PowerShot SD700 IS - iSAPS and Auto Focus
iSAPS (Intelligent Scene Analysis based on Photographic Space) automatically optimises key camera settings before every shot. Each scene is analysed and cross-referenced against Photographic Space – a vast in-camera library of photographic data. This enables the camera to make optimal adjustments to auto exposure, auto focus and auto white balance before image capture occurs. Canon's 9-point AiAF (Artificial Intelligence Auto Focus) automatically scans and selects subjects from a set of nine focusing areas across the scene. This ensures accurately focused images even when subjects are not in the centre of the frame.
Canon SD 700 IS - Optical image stabilizer
Canon's optical Image Stabilizer (IS) technology uses special vibration sensors to detect and correct slight camera shakes that can cause image blur. It allows photographers to shoot at shutter speeds up to 3 stops slower with no perceptible increase in image blur. IS is extremely helpful in low light situations, at full zoom and when shooting macro photography.
Canon PowerShot SD700 IS - UA lens
Canon's UA lens was the world's first ultra-high refractive index glass moulded aspherical lens. Made from glass with a higher refractive index than other aspherical lenses, it allows for an exceptionally slim and compact lens unit. The glass moulded aspherical shape delivers remarkable image quality and avoids the image aberrations that can occur with spherical lens designs.

Right in front of the café, political analysts gather every evening for a steamy banter and this 'panel discussion' has been going on uninterruptedly for more than 50 years
Modern Café, a famous eatery on Besant Road, is not only known for its lip-smacking vegetarian savouries but also for its distinctiveness as a one-stop place for political analysts.
Right in front of the café, political analysts gather every evening for a steamy banter and this 'panel discussion' has been going on uninterruptedly for more than 50 years. Says Raghava Rao, a retired employee: "I started taking part in the powwow from 1968. Rain or shine, I will come in the meet my friends for a hot discussion on political ramifications".
Narasimha Naidu, Babu Rao, Ram Murthy, Kotaiah and Prasad are among the 40-odd faceless people who participate in fiery 'discussions' and they have been coming for the past 25 years. "The discussion will turn hot during the elections. Mostly we discuss on the prospects and campaign style of the candidates. Each one will add a new angle to the discussion," says the 78-year old Raghava Rao.
Says Basha, who hawks chat items: "Just like how people chit-chat in Irani tea stalls at Hyderabad, these people come here. At times the banter would go haywire ending in war of words. Soon they will gain semblance and leave the place only to come again the next day".
Interestingly, all the 'panellists' are avid media followers who read newspapers and watch new programmes with keen interest.
Says Poornachandra Rao of Poorna Hair Styles, "So many things have changed in Besant Road for the past 50 years. Even the Modern Café presents a chic look after a makeover. But these folks are the same. They are the permanent feature of the thoroughfare". The 'panellists' also acknowledge fact that everything changed on the busy Besant Road. "Earlier we had more space to walk. We now see more number of hawkers, beggars and vehicles creating congestion," says Rammurthy, a regular to the discussions.
An interaction with the compulsive analysts by The Hindu, brought out some interesting observations from the faceless voters. One said the new voters would play a defining role, while the other bemoaned the depleting commitment among the political class. Another pitched in cursing the money power unleashed by the candidates, while a rookie felt that media always gave a distorted picture of the facts.
"They are harmless for they only indulge in talkathon. They like to express their opinion and Besant Road is providing them the platform. Long live their tribe," says G. Phani, who chronicles city history.

Good doubles players realize the value of gaining control of the net. Volleys are mechanically easier shots, you have better angle opportunities, and hopefully you're putting pressure on your opponent. How do you know that you're at a level with your game capable of successfully serving and volleying? After all, you can serve and you can volley right?
In my opinion, how well you serve should be the most important factor. Many players, especially at lower level, improve their volley without making the same improvement with their serve. So they get one part of the equation correct, but the volley is going to be more effective with a weak return from the receiver. And how do you get that? You work on your serve so that you have a more consistent first serve that you can place to your opponent's weakness throughout the match.
On most shots, I recommend that my students learn, in order: consistency (the ability to swing the same way each time); placement; depth; spin; and pace. To be successful coming to the net, I think consistency, placement, and depth should already be taken care of and hopefully you will add spin and pace if you haven't already done so. The idea is to force the receiver to hit a floating defensive return and this will usually happen with a stronger serve. In most cases, at least a moderate amount of power relative to your skill level is needed to serve and volley. This also applies to second serves.
From my teaching, I see most students wanting to serve and volley as they get to the 3.5 level. Of course you will see an amazing 3.0 serve and volleyer and a 4.0 that wouldn't dream of going to the net. As your game improves and you are able to add aggressiveness while cutting down on unforced errors, you will probably try to add the serve and volley tactic.
The next time you see or play against a strong serve and volley player take note. I'll bet they have one thing in common - a serve that keeps you on the defensive.

May 7, 2003
The mad dogs of war, unleashed by George W. Bush, are baying and barking up a storm. The War Party isn't resting on its laurels. The conquest of Iraq had hardly been celebrated by our President, as he landed on an aircraft carrier in a fighter jet and bounded out to meet his cheering Praetorians, when the cry for an encore was heard:
"President Bush is committed, pretty far down the road. The logic of events says you can't go halfway. You can't liberate Iraq, then quit."
That's the little Lenin of the neocons, Weekly Standard editor Bill Kristol. In spite of the story being bruited about that Condolezza Rice reined in the gung-ho guys in the Pentagon at the last moment and barely avoided a U.S. invasion of Syria the White House is denying it Kristol is right. George the Great can hardly contain his own Greatness within the arbitrary boundaries drawn by the British Foreign Office on the map of the Middle East. The incision has been made, and the Bushies have no choice but to keep operating, whether they like it or not. Bush implied as much in his speech to the troops, as he strutted about in his flight suit, his helmet tucked neatly under his arm:
"The battle of Iraq is one victory in a war on terror that began on September the 11, 2001 and still goes on. Any outlaw regime that has ties to terrorist groups and seeks or possesses weapons of mass destruction is a grave danger to the civilized world and will be confronted."
Translation: Syria you're next!
A "terrorist" is not just a member of Al Qaeda, in the Bushian lexicon: now Hezbollah, Hamas, the Palestinians, the Syrians, the Shi'ite groups in Iraq that sympathize with the Iranian regime all are in the sights of this administration, which has initiated a new kind of urban renewal project in the region. After the bulldozers do their work, a new Middle East is supposed to rise out of the rubble one that is "democratic," secular, and could easily be mistaken for the Middle Western areas of the good old United States like those American compounds in Saudi Arabia. But does anyone really believe for a minute that Iraq can be turned into, say, Arizona? This "democratization" campaign is a crock. Something else is going on here....
An "outlaw regime" is, potentially, any and all Middle Eastern governments with the glaring exception of Israel, the one nation in the region that we know has nuclear weapons and much else. We know because we paid for them. While we question captured Iraqi scientists searching frantically for evidence of Iraq's legendary "weapons of mass destruction," Mordecai Vanunu sits in an Israel maximum-security prison in solitary confinement, having spent 12 of his 18 year sentence in solitary confinement. He was imprisoned after being kidnapped by the Mossad off a London street for revealing the truth about Israel's nuclear weapons.
But this is not hypocrisy: Israel, you see, is a "democracy." Never mind that its Palestinian helots are dispossessed of their land and disenfranchised as well. The hallmark and guiding principle of U.S. policy in the region is simple: one standard for the Arabs, and another one for the Israelis.
Bashar al Assad found this out when tried to explain to Colin Powell why Israel, too, must get rid of its WMD. Powell's response to the Syrian suggestion that the U.S. back their proposed UN resolution to rid the entire Middle East of nukes and other WMD, submitted to the Security Council on Friday, was to reject out of hand the principle of evenhandedness:
"Clearing such weapons from the region is a long-standing U.S. goal, but now is not the time to address that matter," is how Ha'aretz characterized his attitude.
"Shut the f*** up, get your hands out where I can see them, and get down on the ground!"
The Syrians know what's up: Assad rushed to assure Powell that anti-Israel groups headquartered in Damascus would be expelled. But the Israelis and their "free Lebanon" contingent have been raising doubts about how much control the Syrian President has over his own country, and now that meme has made it into this New York Times op ed piece written by a CIA analyst:
"Mr. Assad was only 34 when he became president upon the death of his father, Hafez, in June 2000. Until then, most of his political career had been spent as head of the government-run Syrian Computer Society. Still encumbered by several of his father's key advisers, he does not yet have the standing to make fundamental changes in policy on his own. One has only to observe the Syrian president in meetings where he is accompanied by his foreign minister (in office since 1984) or his vice president (a key regime figure since the 1970's) to appreciate the constraints he faces."
Meanwhile, Hezbollah and other anti-Israeli guerrilla groups are asking: "What 'crackdown'?"
"There are consequences lurking in the background," growled Powell on the Sunday morning talk show circuit. The President will "have all his options on the table" if Syria doesn't hop to it. Are we talkin' war? Powell's answer: "There are many ways to confront a nation." Yes, and our neocons know each and every one of them, including sanctions, a propaganda war, and a new selection in the Hitler of the Month Club.
What is lurking in the background is the neocon network that has burrowed its way up to the highest levels of this administration and is on a roll. These guys aren't going to miss their opportunity to raise the banner of Imperial America in the Middle East and, incidentally, smite Israel's enemies in one fell swoop before the American public catches on to their game. As CIA analyst Flynt Leverett relates:
"The military victory over Saddam Hussein's regime has empowered some officials in the Bush administration to push for similarly decisive action against other state sponsors of terrorism. For the hardliners, Syria has become the preferred next target in the war on terrorism. I know because I've been hearing the argument a lot in recent days. For the last eight years, I have been directly involved in United States policymaking toward Syria, as a CIA analyst, on the State Department's policy planning staff and at the White House. In all that time, I have never seen officials as willing to take on the Syrian regime as they are today."
No longer even bothering to hide their Likudnik loyalties, Bush's top advisors on the wrong side of the Powell-Rumsfeld divide are plumbing for war. Newt Gingrich's blast at Powell's "ludicrous" trip to Damascus was just the first salvo. The Secretary of State was quite right in his reply: the President was the real target of the Newtster's ire. Gingrich's diatribe was a shot across the bow at the first sign of hesitation by George the Conqueror in pressing on with what the more maniacal neocons gleefully refer to as "World War IV." Get on with it, George or else.
On the Iranian front, the threat to "isolate" Teheran is a hollow one: it is the United States that is being isolated, as an American viceroy appoints a largely secular civilian junta dominated by Iraqi exiles to build a nation where the imams rule. How is it "isolating" the Iranians to invite the Supreme Council for the Islamic Revolution in Iraq (SCIRI), armed and trained by Teheran, into the new Iraqi "interim" government?
Powell's bluster is a smokescreen for what amounts to a de facto US-Iranian alliance: after all, the Americans knocked off Iran's principal enemy, and immediately turned their sights on Syria. Rumors that the Iranians promised to allow the use of their airspace for the attack on Iraq may not have been entirely unfounded. In any case, a January trip by Assad to Teheran was cancelled at the last minute, and Syrian-Iranian relations, never all that cordial to begin with, have never been worse. If the Americans amputate the Syrian wing of the secularist Ba'ath party, Iran's ayatollahs won't shed a tear, nor will the Turks, who have outstanding issues with Damascus. When it comes Syria's turn to be "liberated" from its sovereignty, the Turkish parliament may prove far more cooperative with Washington. Syria is surrounded by enemies, and it is only a matter of time before they pounce with the U.S. leading the way.
Seen as a grand-scale replication of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the invasion and occupation of Iraq begins to make at least some kind of twisted sense. The goal of U.S. war plans in the region, like the strategic thrust of Israel's fight against the Palestinians, is to destroy the secular-modern Arab entities the Ba'athists of Iraq and Syria just as the Israelis trained their fire on the PLO, and encouraged the development of religious rivals to Arafat, even going so far as to fund the early growth of Hamas.
Ever since Bashar al Assad succeeded his father, the Israelis have feared a U.S. rapprochement with Syria: the former London-based opthamologist is Hafez al Assad's second son, and never intended to inherit his father's power. But the death of the family's first-born male heir, Basil, thrust him into the leadership. Bashar started out as a reformer, and hopes were high, but the reforms were stalled by the resistance of the Ba'athist old guard. Now the news that the Syrian President had offered to negotiate directly with the Israelis before the invasion of Iraq lends credence to his reputed willingness to compromise and break the logjam blocking Middle East peace. Naturally, Ariel Sharon rejected the offer. Why should the Israeli Prime Minister bother talking with Assad when he can send his American errand boy to do the job?
Not that there is anything for Syria to negotiate except the terms of its surrender.
As the pretexts for Gulf War II are torpedoed, one by one, the real reason for the invasion of Iraq becomes more obvious with each passing day. As "weapons of mass destruction" fail to turn up, and the fabled Al Qaeda-Iraq link is less convincing than ever, the swiftness of the American victory underscores the reality that Saddam never was a military threat to begin with, either to his neighbors or to us. What, then, was the point of this war?
In 1996, Richard Perle, James Colbert, Charles Fairbanks, Jr., Douglas Feith, Robert Loewenberg, David Wurmser, and Meyrav Wurmser collaborated on a policy paper for then-Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, which declared "A Clean Break" with the "defensive" strategies of the past:
"Israel can shape its strategic environment, in cooperation with Turkey and Jordan, by weakening, containing, and even rolling back Syria. This effort can focus on removing Saddam Hussein from power in Iraq an important Israeli strategic objective in its own right as a means of foiling Syria's regional ambitions."
The Israelis, and their American amen corner, have always understood that the road to Damascus runs through Baghdad. As the authors of "A Clean Break" presciently put it:
"Syria enters this conflict with potential weaknesses: Damascus is too preoccupied with dealing with the threatened new regional equation to permit distractions of the Lebanese flank. And Damascus fears that the 'natural axis' with Israel on one side, central Iraq and Turkey on the other, and Jordan, in the center would squeeze and detach Syria from the Saudi Peninsula. For Syria, this could be the prelude to a redrawing of the map of the Middle East which would threaten Syria's territorial integrity."
That not a few of the authors of this policy paper are now high officials in charge of directing America's foreign policy means that this strategy can now by implemented by the U.S. government.
That's what the invasion of Iraq was all about. Syria was always the real target of "Operation Iraqi Freedom," and this post-war diplomatic dance with Damascus confirms it. As Pat Buchanan put it in The American Conservative:
"We charge that a cabal of polemicists and public officials seek to ensnare our country in a series of wars that are not in America's interests. We charge them with colluding with Israel to ignite those wars and destroy the Oslo Accords. We charge them with deliberately damaging U.S. relations with every state in the Arab world that defies Israel or supports the Palestinian people's right to a homeland of their own. We charge that they have alienated friends and allies all over the Islamic and Western world through their arrogance, hubris, and bellicosity."
Will this same gang of warmongers entrap us in a war with Syria, and drag us back into Lebanon, where we are sure to confront the ghosts of our past errors? The battle-cry has already been sounded: Stay tuned as we hear news of Syria's "weapons of mass destruction" and the inevitable question: "Is Saddam in Syria?"
As Yogi Berra once said: "This is like deja-vu all over again!"

Special Correspondent
New Delhi: With barely days to go before the next round of talks between India and the United States on their proposed nuclear cooperation agreement, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and President George W. Bush spoke to each other on the phone on Wednesday to emphasise their commitment to strong bilateral relations.
According to the Prime Minister's media adviser, Sanjaya Baru, the two leaders "expressed satisfaction at the strong India-U.S. bilateral relationship and spoke about the discussions between the National Security Advisers of both countries, scheduled for next week."
Both leaders expressed their confidence that these discussions would further strengthen the bilateral relationship.
Talks to continue
Dr. Baru said the Prime Minister and the U.S. President said they looked forward to continuing their discussions at their next meeting, a date for which has yet to be set.
Though the U.S. President earlier invited Dr. Singh to visit his ranch at Crawford, Texas, some time in August, Indian officials said it would be difficult for the Prime Minister to travel to the U.S. before September, when the U.N. General Assembly is held.
National Security Adviser M.K. Narayanan and his U.S. counterpart, Stephen Hadley, are expected to try and give a push to the stalled negotiations over the nuclear cooperation agreement — or 123 agreement.

Feasibility of double-contrast barium enema in the elderly. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 3873855 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
In order to evaluate the feasibility of performing double-contrast barium enemas in the elderly, a consecutive series of 310 patients above 60 years of age referred for barium enema examinations was analyzed relative to the rate of successful studies. There was an overall success rate of 94.8%. There was a 99% success rate in patients in the seventh decade, 94.9% in the eighth decade, and a 90% success rate in patients 80 years and over. A conclusion is reached that the double-contrast barium enema examination is feasible in the elderly. |

LINCOLN, Neb. — A Lancaster County district judge has yet to rule on whether the owner of a Midwest chain of sex shops will be allowed to run for Lincoln City Council.
The county's election commission says John Haltom is ineligible for election because of a felony conviction. The Nebraska Constitution bars felons from holding public office unless pardons restored their civil rights.
Haltom says the commission misinterpreted the law.
District Judge Robert Otte heard arguments on Friday and took the case under advisement.
The city council election is April 7, but the ballots have already been printed — without Haltom's name.
His attorney has suggested that Haltom, a Republican, be listed as an independent candidate on ballots for the general election.
Haltom owns seven Doctor John's "lingerie novelty boutiques" in Missouri, Illinois and Nebraska.
He was convicted of selling an adult video to a 17-year-old in Salt Lake City in 2000 and served 30 days.
