The Corpus Christi College Centre for the Study of Greek and Roman Antiquity
The Centre was set up in 1993 to provide a focus and umbrella organisation for the College's various postgraduate activities in classical research (the area of 'classics' being very widely defined). Corpus, founded in 1517 partly to promote the newly revived study of Latin and Greek in Oxford, remains firmly committed to the study of the classical world in all its forms. Amongst Oxford colleges it has the largest proportions of undergraduates studying classical subjects, of permanent faculty members with classical interests, and of classical graduates. These last groups form the core of the Centre: all the College's Fellows and lecturers with classical interests are ex officio Senior Members, and all classical graduate students at Corpus are automatically Members; other categories include Visiting Members (short-term visiting graduates and academics) and Associate Members (classical scholars without other UK departmental affiliation). The Centre organises two series of seminars in Michaelmas and Hilary Terms each year (the Corpus Christi Classical Seminar, founded 1980). It also stages other conferences, one-off seminars and lectures (and social events!) from time to time.

Antiseptic Property of Coffee.
—It has been lately shown by Lüderitz, from a series of experiments conducted by him in the Berlin Institute of Hygiene, that coffee as a drink (infusion) possesses very decided antiseptic properties. Several different forms of bacteria were experimented on, and their growth was found in all cases to be interfered with by the addition of a small quantity of coffee infusion to nutrient gelatine. In pure infusion the bacteria were rapidly destroyed. The question as to what constituents exercise the antiseptic action cannot yet be answered. The caffein is certainly only active to a slight degree, the tannic acid to a greater extent, but probably of greatest importance are substances which are formed during roasting. It is interesting to note that a cup of coffee left lying in a room remains almost free from microorganisms for a week or more.—Berlin Klin. Woch.

'Rudolph' shines in faithful First Stage show
To every mother's child wondering whether reindeer really know how to fly, I'm offering this simple phrase, applicable to kids from 1 to 92: Head downtown, where the soaring new production of "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" at First Stage Children's Theater will put all doubts to rest.
Reprising the formula that made First Stage's 2010 production of "Peter Pan and Wendy" a resounding success, director Jeff Frank and his production team achieve liftoff the old-fashioned way: by relying on flesh-and-blood human beings to do what machines cannot. »Read Full Article

Her attention is immediately drawn to an ostensibly chaste but erotically charged portrait on the wall, and within the blink of an eye she has offered a bawdy, original and wide-ranging interpretation of how that portrait works. Admitting he hasn't looked at it in years, the best Frank can manage is the bland assessment that it's "beautiful." »Read Full Article

Couple Counseling NJ - Especially Beneficial For A Couple
Professional counseling can provide the insight and compassion to help solve most family problems.
The counseling procedure is very much personalized and private; the couples can take the sessions individually or together. The primary goal of the counselors is to strengthen relationships by offering non-biased support and beneficial recommendations to help you and your partner build listening skills, positive communication, and trust. Once these skills strengthened within each partner, it will provide a platform to re-establish the bond that weakened over the years.
It is a known truth that all relationships go through tough times and the main thing is how a couple handles those times, which will bring the difference between staying together and getting separated. This is when Couple Counseling NJ comes as a savior to the relationship. The counselors in this institution are well educated and hold prestigious licenses like Licensed Professional Counselors (LPC), Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists (LMFT), Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselors (LCADC) and Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSW).
Challenging situations in a relationship can be minimized by identifying the primary factors of your relational issues and getting them resolved. The Couple Counseling NJ is a division in Child and Family Solutions. This company believes the challenges on the surface of a relationship are only an indicator of deeper problems. These counselors have several years of experience in couples counseling and offer you the best therapy needed to get things resolved in your relationship. First, the couple attends a therapy session and discusses specific issues. With the help of a qualified clinician, communication and stability with your partner can be restored. These therapies and discussion sessions are especially beneficial for a couple who is experiencing detachment, repetitive arguments, bitterness, pent-up anger, and dissatisfaction. It is always recommended that counseling should be taken by the couple together; however if issues need to be sorted out independently, separate sessions can be performed.

Rain to continue for 48 hours
By Express News Service - BANGALORE
Published: 13th September 2013 08:35 AM
Last Updated: 13th September 2013 08:35 AM
The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) officials forecast heavy rain in the city in the next 48 hours due to upper air circulation in the Bay of Bengal and low pressure along the coast of Andhra Pradesh. The IMD duty officer told Express that the city recorded 16.2 mm rain till 11.30 pm on Thursday.
The BBMP, taking cue from the weatherman, has set up 60 sub-divisions in the city to monitor rain-related issues. An official at the BBMP control room said, "Every two sub-divisions will be monitored by one chief engineer."
The official said the control rooms are equipped with water pumping machines, axes and generator sets. The civic body will also alert BESCOM to disconnect electric cables when trees are uprooted.

|Mountains of the Mind; The Wild Places; The Old Ways; Landmarks
Robert Macfarlane (born 15 August 1976) is a British academic and travel writer.
Early life[edit]
Macfarlane was born in Halam, Nottinghamshire[1] and attended Nottingham High School. He was educated at Pembroke College, Cambridge, and Magdalen College, Oxford. He began his PhD at Emmanuel College, Cambridge, in 2000, and in 2001 was elected a Fellow of the College. In 2012 he was made a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature.
Macfarlane's first book, Mountains of the Mind, was published in 2003 and won the Guardian First Book Award, the Somerset Maugham Award, and the Sunday Times Young Writer of the Year Award. It was shortlisted for the Boardman Tasker Prize for Mountain Literature and the John Llewellyn Rhys Prize. It is an account of the development of Western attitudes to mountains and precipitous landscapes, and takes its title from a line by the poet Gerard Manley Hopkins. Macfarlane's book combines history with first-person narrative. He considers why people are drawn to mountains despite their obvious dangers, and examines the powerful and sometimes fatal hold that mountains can come to have over the imagination. The book's heroes include the mountaineer George Mallory, and its influences include the writing of Simon Schama and Francis Spufford.[2]
Macfarlane's second book was Original Copy: Plagiarism and Originality in Nineteenth-Century Literature, which was published in March 2007. Exploring the difference between creation and invention, the book surveys the "borrowedness" of much Victorian literature, focusing on the writings of George Eliot, Walter Pater and Oscar Wilde, among others.[3]
His third book The Wild Places was published in September 2007. In it he embarks on a series of journeys in search of the wildness that remains in Britain and Ireland .[4] The book explores wildness both geographically and intellectually, testing different ideas of the wild against different landscapes, and describes Macfarlane's explorations of forests, moors, salt marshes, mudflats, islands, sea-caves and city fringes. A condensed version of the book was broadcast as Book of the Week on BBC Radio 4 in September 2007.[5] In November 2007, the book won the Boardman Tasker Prize for Mountain Literature, and in June 2008 it won the Scottish Arts Council Non-Fiction Book of the Year Award. In November 2008, it was joint winner of the Grand Prize at the Banff Mountain Festival, North America's equivalent of the Boardman Tasker Prize.[6] It became a best-seller in Britain and The Netherlands, and went on to be shortlisted for six further prizes, including the Dolman Best Travel Book Award, the Sunday Times Young Writer of the Year Award, the John Llewellyn Rhys Prize, and North America's Orion Book Award, a prize founded "to recognize books that deepen our connection to the natural world, present new ideas about our relationship with nature, and achieve excellence in writing."[7]
The Old Ways: A Journey On Foot, the third in the 'loose trilogy of books about landscape and the human heart' begun by Mountains of the Mind and The Wild Places, was published in June 2012 by Hamish Hamilton/Penguin UK, and in October 2012 by Viking/Penguin US. It was acclaimed as a 'tour de force' by William Dalrymple in the Observer.[8] The book describes the years Macfarlane spent following 'old ways' (pilgrimage paths, sea-roads, prehistoric trackways, ancient rights of way) in south-east England, north-west Scotland, Spain, Sichuan and Palestine. Its guiding spirit is the early twentieth century writer and poet, Edward Thomas, and its chief subject is the reciprocal shaping of people and place.
The Old Ways entered the Sunday Times Bestseller Chart for non-fiction at number three, and stayed in the top ten for a total of half-a-year as hardback and paperback. It was chosen 18 times as a Book of the Year for 2012, including by John Banville,[9] Philip Pullman,[10] Jan Morris, John Gray, Antony Beevor, and Dan Stevens. In the UK it was joint winner of the Dolman Prize for Travel Writing, was shortlisted for The Samuel Johnson Prize (the 'non-fiction Booker'),[11] the Jan Michalski Prize for World Literature, the Duff-Cooper Prize for Non-Fiction, the Warwick Prize for Writing, the Waterstones Book of the Year Award,[12] and three other prizes. In the US it was shortlisted for the Orion Book Award. An abridged version was broadcast as Book of the Week on Radio 4 in June 2012.
Landmarks, a book that celebrates and defends the language of landscape, was published in March 2015. It is described on the cover as 'a field guide to the literature of nature, and a vast glossary collecting thousands of the remarkable terms used in dozens of the languages and dialects of Britain and ireland to describe and denote aspects of terrain, weather, and nature'. Entries in the nine glossaries include:
- ammil, (south-west English dialect for the 'vast glitter and gleam of sunlight on hoarfrost'),[13]
- zwer (Exmoor dialect for 'the noise made by a covey of partridges rising in flight'),[13]
- summer geese (a Yorkshire term for 'the steam that lifts from moorland when hot sun shines after hard rain'),
- crizzle (Northamptonshire dialect for 'the sound and action of open water as it freezes', and
- klett (Shetlandic for 'an earth-fast boulder on the shoreline'.
Each of the book's chapters explores the landscapes and style of a writer or writers, as Macfarlane travels to meet farmers, sailors, walkers, glossarians, artists, poets and others who have developed intense and committing relationships with their chosen places. The chapter of the book concerning Nan Shepherd and the Cairngorm mountains has been adapted for television by BBC4 and BBC Scotland. Macfarlane's detailed writing style, and his frequent references to dialect vocabulary, was satirised in a February 2016 edition of Private Eye by Craig Brown in the magazine's regular "Diary" feature.
Macfarlane is seen as the inheritor of a tradition of writing about landscape, place, travel and nature which includes John Muir, Richard Jefferies and Edward Thomas, as well as contemporary figures such as John McPhee, Rebecca Solnit, Annie Dillard, Barry Lopez and his friend Roger Deakin. He is associated with other walker-writers including Patrick Leigh Fermor, Nan Shepherd and Laurie Lee, and also grouped with a number of recent British writers who have provoked a new critical and popular interest in writing about landscape.[14] Edward Thomas, in particular, prompted Macfarlane's interest in the impact of British country paths and lanes on British writers.[15]
Macfarlane's interests in topography, ecology and the environment have been explored in his books but also through newspaper and magazine essays, notably his Common Ground series which was published in The Guardian in 2005.[16] He has also published many reportage and travel essays in magazines, especially Granta and Archipelago, as well as numerous introductory essays to re-issues of lost and neglected classics of landscape and nature writing from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, notably J A Baker ("The Peregrine") and Nan Shepherd ("The Living Mountain" and "In The Cairngorms").
In 2004 Macfarlane sat on the panel of judges for the Man Booker Prize, which selected Alan Hollinghurst's The Line of Beauty as that year's winner, and in 2005 he guest-edited and introduced The Mays anthology of new writing. In November 2012, he was named as Chair of the judges for the 2013 Man Booker Prize,[17] and he and his jury selected Eleanor Catton's "The Luminaries" as that year's winner. Macfarlane was the youngest chair of the Prize, Catton its youngest winner, and "The Luminaries" the longest novel ever to triumph.
Macfarlane presented "The Wild Places of Essex", an episode of the BBC Two Natural World series broadcast in February 2010; the film later won a Wildscreen Award.[18] He is the patron of the Outdoor Swimming Society, the Outlandia Project, ONCA (One Network for Conservation and the Arts), and Gateway To Nature, a Lottery-funded mental-health initiative designed to improve access to nature for vulnerable groups and individuals. He is a Trustee of the charity Action For Conservation.[citation needed]
The hardback cover of "Landmarks" and the paperback cover of The Old Ways were both linocuts by the artist Stanley Donwood, known for his close association with the band Radiohead. Macfarlane also collaborated with Donwood and writer Dan Richards on Holloway, published in an edition of 277 by Quive-Smith Press in 2012,[19] and a trade edition by Faber & Faber in May 2013, which became a Sunday Times best-seller. "Holloway" is being adapted into a short film shot on Super-8 by the film-maker Adam Scovell.
In June 2012, Macfarlane wrote the libretto to a 'jazz opera' called Untrue Island, composed by the double-bassist Arnie Somogyi, and performed in a former nuclear weapons storage site on Orford Ness in Suffolk.[20]
He also worked with the natural history sound-recordist Chris Watson to produce a performance of 'Sea-Road', released on vinyl by Rivertones/CBTR.[21]
The chapter of The Old Ways entitled 'Silt', describing a walk along the off-shore tidal path known as The Broomway, was in March 2013 published as a stand-alone micro e-book. It was also the subject of an exhibition of photographs by David Quentin, and two sound-works ("Silt" and "The Grey Sink") by The Pale Horse, released on vinyl by Brainlove Records.[22]
His work has been involved with the music of contemporary musicians including Johnny Flynn,[23] Frank Turner and The Memory Band. In 2015 he authored the liner notes to Grasscut's third album Everyone Was A Bird.[24]

I'd love to visit one of the martial arts schools to see a display or take a Tai Chi class. It's such a shame that I don't have longer here.

Whale Exhibit At Museum Of Natural History Highlights Majestic Giants
Category: Technology
/ Mar 24, 2013 7:34PM EDT
Whales: Giants of the Deep opens at the American Museum of Natural History on March 23 and the exhibit transports visitors to the stunning underwater world of the mightiest animals on Earth. The new exhibition highlights whale evolution, biology, diversity, and whale conservation. By the mid-1900s, commercial whaling left many whale populations severely depleted, as Europe and America actively hunted whales for their rich blubber. While much is known about whales and their ancestors, there is still a lot to learn and new discoveries are being made every day. Whales are mammals, like us, and their ancestors used to walk on land, but some 55 million years ago whales evolved to live in the sea. Whales features more than 20 skulls and skeletons, including many rare specimens, on tour from the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa. New Zealand is home to the Maori people, whose mythologies and histories are deeply tied to whales. The day IBTimes TV got a sneak peak of the new exhibition, the Senior Curator of Maori, from Te Papa in New Zealand, explained the relationship between the Maori tribe and whales, why it's important to carry on Maori traditions, and even blessed the exhibit space with a traditional Maori song. While there are many fun interactive spots in the Whales exhibit, it's clear that the life-size replica of a blue whale heart is the main attraction. According to a group of kids exploring the whale heart, the Whales exhibit is going to be a hit. Whales: Giants of the Deep runs from March 23 to January 5, so you have all summer to come learn about these fascinating marine mammals.

Cold Spring Officer Killed
A police officer has been shot and killed while conducting a routine check on a resident in central Minnesota.
31-year-old Tom Decker of Cold Spring was killed around 11 p.m. near Winner's Bar in Cold Spring as Decker and his partner were conducting a welfare check at a nearby apartment. Law enforcement agencies from across the region along with the Minnesota State Patrol launched a search for the suspect.
Within an hour, Stearns County SWAT team investigators took 34-year-old Ryan Michael Larson of Cold Spring into custody. Larson is being held in the Stearns County Jail on murder charges. Officer Decker spent more than 10 years in law enforcement in Mille Lacs, Meeker and Stearns counties and had worked as an officer with the Cold Spring Police Department since March 2006.
The last Stearns County officer killed in the line of duty was St. Joseph officer Brian Klinefelter, who was shot in 1996 while attempting to arrest three robbery suspects.
The shooting is being investigated by the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension and the Stearns County Sheriff's Office with assistance from the Cold Spring Police Department, the Minnesota State Patrol, the St. Cloud Police and several other agencies.

Nice to see people taking CBOAT seriously with the resale of digital games.
NoizeTrauma 3 years ago#13
Right now I buy digital when I can. Next gen I will only buy digital. I have a very good reason for this.
I have two televisions .One in my living room, one in my bedroom. Right now, I also have two 360's. One for each television. I also enjoy playing co-op games with my friends when they come over to my place.
Because anyone can play a digital copy of a game on the console you first download it to, I set my friends up on my living room television. And because I can play any digital copy of the game that I have bought (as long as I'm logged in), I bring my television in from my bedroom and set it up next to my other tv in the living room, re-download the game to the second console and then I play on that television.
I now have the game set up on two different consoles/televisions and only payed for a single copy. Sure as hell beats splitscreen and it allows me to do co-op on other games that don't have a splitscreen option.
1 purchase, 2 playable copies. That is why digital works better for me.
If it's a single player only game, however, I will probably end up buying the physical copy simply because I do tend to sell my physical games in order to fund new purchases.
Cum On Feel the Noize.
im going disk only games for madden 25. for now. since tiger woods isn't out yet.
for dead rising 3, forza, titian fall, halo, I am going Digital dl only. I feel those games are going to last at lest 2 years or longer in life span before new ones are out that getting a digital dl is worth it. Im also more of a casual gaming and not buying to much next gen but will be getting enough to hold me over a while.
sports games since they come out each year are the only things to get on disk so I can trade then in but I will make a final choice on disk for madden when it gets closer. I just feel trade in value is so low and will be lower next gen. digital dl is the way to go.

CBOAT just comments on rumors that already existed and hopes for the best. The digital marketplace rumor existed long before he talked about it.

Physical has more value IMO. You can't currently sell, trade or borrow digital so I won't pay full price for it. If they do ever come out with a digital game resale marketplace or bring back family share I might consider going full digital.
This ^^
But also... Games on shelves look cool and you can see you collection growing, games on HD.. Meh. A full HD looks no better than an empty one.
I've recently been buying digital since live has had some ok sales recently plus the games with gold and I gotta tell ya. It's really nice just scrolling through my games in my list, pressing A and playing.
Now if I want to play one of my games that are on disk. I'm just like 'ugh' lol. Gotta walk over to my shelf and get it then put it into the tray. Lol
Of course I'm being very tongue in cheek here. But is still nice.
That's so interesting and perceptive we should now fight with knives!
I am considering going pure digital because of the fact if I want a large game library I am gonna have no choice but to go digital. living in a one room apartment with my gf makes it so I do not have the space for a large library
That does it! I have had it with these mother****ing trolls on this mother****ing board!!! -mercuryblade09

I would go all digital, just on the fact that I'm reaching my limit of available room space to store all the physical media I already do own (games, movies, music, books, etc...).
One other benefit would be that going all digital would prepare me to when / if Microsoft brings back the Family Share plan. I would actually be able to lend a game to my friends / family on the other side of the country.
Opinions can be changed. Beliefs however, not so much.

The Eagles have agreed to terms with Stony Brook tackle Michael Bamiro, who was recently declared a free agent by the NFL after the NCAA denied him an extra year of eligibility.
The 6-foot-8, 335-pound Bamiro is expected to sign a contract Wednesday and will report to training camp along with the rest of the Eagles rookies on Monday.
Bamiro should have been eligible for the draft in April but avoided the process because of an apparent oversight. He wasn't eligible for the supplemental draft earlier this month because he was not an underclassman.
The 22-year-old Bamiro attended the University of Pittsburgh-Titusville in 2008 but did not participate in intercollegiate athletics. He transferred to Stony Brook in 2009, following one brother who played football and another who played basketball. He sat out his first year as a redshirt and started at right tackle for the Seawolves for the next three years.

Club working on trail bridge
BOLTON The Green Mountain Club is working on a new route for the Long Trail, the long-distance hiking trail.
The route would be in Bolton.
The club is issuing a challenge to raise $50,000 for a footbridge crossing the Winooski River.
Its already raised more than $500,000.
The club says an anonymous donor has agreed to match every donation up to the $50,000 through the end of August.
The club has sought to establish a safe, appropriate and permanent route for the Long Trail over the Winooski River in Bolton since 1912, when it established the first stretch of the trail from Mount Mansfield to the river.
The club expects to break ground by June.
The trail now crosses the Winooski River on a road bridge.MORE IN This Just InSOUTH BURLINGTON While thinking about space exploration might be associated with Cape...

Did I somehow tell a lie?? :(
I was under the impression that you had a video of it constantly dipping at 18 fps. Something to dip that fast, I do not think it would have time to register in someone's mind. It said 18 and then 30 before my brain had a chance to react. You sensationalized it.
I know you only have a PS4, go enjoy it. =)

I'm taking a break now. I missed this game and how fun it is. =) I am disappointed that I do not notice any force feedback on the triggers. I do not have an automatic, but I still think it would be noticeable. With the bow, I have to let go so I would not feel it. With the pistol, I do not notice that at all.
I am really disappointed. I feel the force feedback of the trigger really makes a shooting experience more enjoyable. Even playing CoD, it felt a lot better when the developers took advantage of it.
As far as people talking about frames per second, I think people are making a huge deal about it like they are with resolutions. Look at my impressions, the graphics are not night and day different but they are better.
People are acting like 60 fps is something new. As long as a game does not chug, it's fine. Last gen we had RAGE, DMC4, CoD, Bayonetta, and Doom BFG that were 60 fps.
We experienced it, but did it make the games better? I do not think so. I think places like Kotaku are guilty of making it seem like it's a really big deal when it's not. Most people are followers by nature, and I am one to use my own judgement and good sense over popular opinion and hop in bandwagons with followers. =)

Sell Your Time, or Sell a Solution, But NEVER Both
I'll never forget the advice my delivery manager gave me 10 years ago when I worked on my first pursuit: "Either sell your time, or sell the deliverable. Never, ever promise both."

From all over the Midwest, teams flock to Fort Wayne, Indiana. A facility tucked away off the interstate becomes a destination for prep basketball.
Soon after the ball is tipped, the court is covered in sweat and the air fills with angst. With each dribble, each pass, each shot, the basketball feels like it weighs the world. This is Indiana, the birthplace of basketball, where even the AAU game felt so important this weekend.
The pressure mounts through each round of the Bill Hensley Memorial Tournament. The crowd along the baseline grows a bit larger with scouts grading each move a player makes. For the family members and friends watching, each basket draws cheers and each missed call by an official (and there were more than a few) brings jeers.
Call it silly or irrational, and in the basketball-crazy state of Indiana, one would normally agree—but not this weekend. These weren't just games, they were opportunities.
This is the AAU circuit, where basketball names are born. Each game is a tryout, an evaluation, and a high-school kid's biggest job interview.
The scouts are going to be tough; frankly, some are wrong more than they're right. If a player doesn't hustle on a transition, then he's deemed lazy. If a kid shows some attitude, he carries the label of a jerk. On an off shooting night, he's labeled as bad.
Don't blow it.
Players feel the pressure. So do the coaches, families and friends in attendance to watch and support their kids. Earn a college scholarship, it's the chance of a lifetime. That's what they're after.
For some, the opportunity is different than others, but the burden still weighs the same.
Jaquan Lyle is already a proven five-star prospect with scholarship offers from some of college basketball's giants. In a matchup with Eron Gordon, another hot commodity, the freshman harshly bounced the ball in Lyle's direction—which he later explained was all in fun. Lyle wasn't laughing, and took it out on the court. He responded with 14 consecutive points and posted 44 in the game.
For sophomore Aaron Jordan, the tournament offered the chance to make his name known. The talented shooting guard is just beginning his AAU basketball career and must prove himself. He did just that.
The opportunity doesn't last long. When those final seconds tick off the clock, those crowded bleachers clear and the scouts file out.
That heavy burden either makes or breaks you.
After standout point guard Jalen Brunson missed the game-winning shot in a Friday night game, he walked off the court in anguish. Brunson holds many high-major offers and will likely add more, but his chance to be a hero, with all eyes watching him, rimmed out.
For the reserve player on the Indiana Elite squad, who missed a three-pointer which would have won their Saturday game, the stakes were a bit higher. Purdue, Illinois, and DePaul won't be calling his name like they have for Brunson. For this kid, it was his big chance. He blew it.
The kid was inconsolable on the bench, draping a towel over his head for more five minutes after the game. His mother, also crying, offered a hug and helped him off the bench. They left the gym walking by all of those framed jerseys.

WASHINGTON - Oil prices dropped sharply Monday, falling below $42 a barrel, as last week's selloff continued despite sabotage of Iraqi oil infrastructure that curbed exports.
"It just goes to show you that when the psychology turns, it turns," said Tom Bentz, a trader at BNP Paribas Futures in New York.
There were also signs out of Iraq on Monday that a peace deal reached in Najaf, Iraq, last week could spread to other parts of the country. An aide to Muqtada al-Sadr said the rebel Shiite cleric called for his followers across Iraq to end fighting against U.S. and Iraqi forces and that he is planning to join the political process in the coming days.
Light sweet crude for October delivery plunged by $1.21 to $41.97 in afternoon trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. At that level, crude futures were trading roughly 14 percent below the record settlement high of $48.70 on Aug. 19.
Oil markets have been extremely volatile this summer because traders fret there is inadequate excess supply globally in the event of a prolonged output disruption in Iraq, Russia or Venezuela.
But with the exception of sporadic dropoffs in Iraqi oil exports due to attacks on industry infrastructure, none of these fears has materialized.
Oil-price speculation by institutional investors, including hedge funds, magnified this summer's surge in prices, as well as the latest retreat, traders said.
On Monday, senior officials at Iraq's state-run oil company told The Associated Press that oil exports had come to a halt after a rash of insurgent attacks on the country's petroleum infrastructure. The officials of the South Oil Co., speaking on condition of anonymity, said the lines were unlikely to resume operations for at least a week.
Other reports, however, suggested the damage was less severe.
Regardless of just how badly the oil flow has been damaged, "two weeks ago, with that news, we would have been up more than $1," Bentz said. "The tide has definitely turned."
