I have the Mirabilis recording of St Mary's Warwick on which Andrew Fletcher uses both parts of that divided organ together to good effect on several tracks.

I remember a very effective performance of Gigout's Grand Choeur Dialogue at Lancing College, with the Frobenius in the east in dialogue with the Walker in the west.
At Worcester, wasn't there always an intention to have a separate nave organ in addition to the new Tickell quire organ?

I remember a very effective performance of Gigout's Grand Choeur Dialogue at Lancing College, with the Frobenius in the east in dialogue with the Walker in the west.
Presumably played by one player at the Frobenius rather than two? When first confronted by this arrangement (being able to play the Walker seemingly miles away at the other end of the building from an essentially mechanical action console - using an auxiliary electric action of course) I was initially somewhat amazed, but soon found it exhilarating once I had sorted out how to set the switching system correctly. However, as separate instruments rather than in 'combined' mode, I far preferred the little Frobenius to the Walker, which seemed clumsy in comparison with its curious mix of action work, and also tonally inferior. The touch of the Frobenius was perhaps the finest of any mechanical action organ I have ever come across even when coupled up. But I digress.
Posted 12 October 2016 - 09:44 PM
Yes, played from the Frobenius, which has (if memory serves) a number of pistons to bring in certain combinations on the Walker (the Steinmeyer at Trondhjem had similar facilities at the quire console). I was quite surprised at how appropriate the Frobenius sounded in such music and, indeed, how good it was as an accompanimental instrument. The Walker is certainly a mish-mash in some ways (there can't be many organs around with a 32' diaphone at one end, and a Sharp Mixture at the other) but I think it works exceedingly well.

The appearance of nave organs over the past 20-30 years is an interesting development in Cathedral and large church organs.
I wonder how much of it has been driven by evolving liturgical practices and evolving practices with hymns?
I heard a recording of the Old 100th conducted by Edward Elgar and was struck by the tempo of the singing (which was at English Hymnal tempos) and the accent put on (the start of) each note. It was not dissimilar to the iso-rhythmic psalm singing found in the most traditional areas of the Dutch Gereformeerde Gemeente churches. Hymn tempos seemed to have increased dramatically over the decades since and the organist is often encouraged to "push the hymns on" these days. Personally, I found the energy and power of Elgar's group singing in a lusty, controlled and very coordinated, communal manner exciting.
It may be helpful to think about the purpose and requirements for nave organs.
The main purpose of nave organs seems to be for accompanying/ leading congregational singing in the nave. They aren't used much for choral accompaniment or repertoire performance, which tends to remain at the East End, unless certain antiphonal effects are desired.
So what sorts of stops and sounds do we need for a nave organ?
The main foundation of hymn accompaniment is borne by a Diapason chorus. I think most organists reach for the Great Open and Principal as a starting point when registering for a hymn (this is just a generalisation) and go from there.
A sub-unison is very helpful for hymn accompaniment. While still highly unfashionable in some quarters, it's worth noting
1. most men sing naturally at an octave below unison pitch so a sub-unison supports these voices at the pitch they're singing
2. Lower pitches are better at getting the sound around corners - e.g. from a high triforium to the floor of a narrow nave. Higher pitches (e.g. mixtures) will use reflection and scattering to disperse but higher frequencies are attenuated by air far more than lower pitches.
So it would follow a large, fairly strongly voiced Diapason chorus would be a good starting point for a nave organ, ideally on a 16 ft basis or with a strong sub-unison.
It may be worth considering some historical models of organs which were built with a strong emphasis on congregational accompaniment.
One of the first models is the Dutch organ from the 17th century to the 19th century to ... well, really the present day. The 2005 Henk van Eeken organ at Rijssen (see http://www.henkvanee...ts/Rijssen.html) and 2014 Reil organ at Bodegraven (see http://www.orgelmake...elkerk/?lang=en) are built in the Dutch tradition and are both designed to accompany congregations of c.2,000 on about 25 stops. Note the use of 16 ft flues and reeds on the manuals and the powerful choruses - Rijssen was originally going to have a 5 1/3 quint and the mixtures are based on the 16 ft series (with a 5 1/3 rank from fairly low down the compass). There are also lots of solo possibilities - Rijssen has a Ruispijp on the pedal with a double drawer - at the first point it acts as a (very powerful) tenor cornet in the tenor octave of the pedalboard, effectively creating a pedal divide if you want to solo out the tune on your right foot and play the bassline with you left (they do, frequently) and there are many other effects, using Tertiaans and Carillons as solo stops. The solo effects are designed to work as a solo with the full chorus and are powerful, telling stops - think Tuba rather than a 1960s Marcussen Spitz-Nazard.
Another model to consider is the British tradition of the first half of the 20th century in the late Walkers and pre WWII H&Hs - the so called "Imperial Organ" if you like. Here we find the development of The Large Open Diapason. Reading through the contemporary reports of the day, much emphasis is put on The Large Organ Diapason and how its "floods of Diapason Tone fill the building" and lead congregational singing. Although there are examples some people find coarse to their modern tastes, and some examples which *are* genuinely coarse , I think there is some mileage considering the qualities of the LOD and what it provides: by providing a lot of unison tone, the lower frequencies help to transmit the sound "around the corner" most British organs found themselves speaking into, while the prodigious amounts of unison tone helps to reassure singers they're singing along to a large group. That said, most people find having at least 1x 4ft drawn is essential to leading congregational singing as it helps the organ be "heard above" the singing and lead the congregation.
Another part of the design of the British organ is the use of the swell organ and how the organ is registered/used in hymns. I think most British organists gravitate towards the Great Diapasons 8 & 4, with Swell coupled in and everything coupled down to a pedal of perhaps 16.16.8 when drawing stops for a hymn. The organist will typically colour paint the words and thoughts of the hymn by changing registrations - a verse or line about glory, crowns and triumph will herald the arrival of the Swell (or Great) Trumpets, spirit, angels and being On High will see the appearance of the mixtures, grandeur and foundation will see more 16 foots and gravity. If the organ has one, the Tuba will make an occasional appearance soloing out the tune, usually (but not always) in the last verse, while the merest whiff of thunder will encourage all sorts of 32 ft reeds and 32 ft effects.
Obviously the Nave Organ would be best placed in the UK to fit in with this tradition but I would suggest it should provide the foundations first, leaving the "colour effects" of the paragraph above to the main organ if necessary. So, if designing a Nave organ, my starting point would be a large Diapason chorus - something along the lines of 16.8.(5 1/3).4.2 2/3.2.Mixture with a bit of pedal. If I was to suggest an improvement at the current crop of nave organs, it would be to have a 16ft flue on the manuals and to encourage more emphasis on the 16.8.4 pitches than the higher pitches. Perhaps after those items have been provided and space and money allows, the next item to add is some reeds, maybe enclosed, to lend some colour with the word painting, followed by a large solo reed (available on another manual). You could probably do everything in 15 stops.
Each church/cathedral is different in design and acoustics so provides its own challenges. Some cathedrals have a tight or non-existent triforium; balance and coordination with the main organ need to be thought about carefully (would we want to consider putting in a delay into the nave organ action, as PA systems have with their speakers, so the sound is coordinated as it travels down the nave?).
It would make sense to me if the style of pipework in the nave organ mirrors that of the main organ - so the design, manufacture and scaling of the pipework in the nave is homogeneous with the main organ to give the best blend and help give the impression only one organ is speaking.

Some comments against some of the comments I've seen on this thread:
Other examples of Nave organs not yet mentioned are
Romsey Abbey (JWWalker, 1998, includes a separate console)
Christchurch Priory - here more organ has be introduced in the south triforium since the 1990s Nicholson organ was built
Sherbourne - the Tickell Nave division at the West end
Southwell - transplant of a J.J.Binns
Winchester - this is possibly the only Nave organ which is in the liturgical Quire. Seriously, it has to travel 2-3 bays of the nave before it reaches the congregation, which is only one less than the main body of the organ. It has a very hard job to do and it is questionable how effective it really is, although it certainly helps. Winchester is a very difficult example due to the extreme length of the nave and the lack of an open triforium in the nave. The whole organ is pushed hard to do its job in the nave and can be uncomfortably direct for Quire services, especially if it is played loudly.
York - who on earth in their right mind would use the Tuba Mirabilis for a nave organ, accompanying every verse of every hymn on it? Come on guys, get real. However, it's an impressive stop (although it sounds far better in the pre-1950s rebuild recordings) and goes to show sound can travel down the nave from the organ where it is ... and I don't think it all needs to be from a solo reed on 30" w.p!

Although there have been many more examples in the last couple of decades, Nave organs are nothing new! St James, Edgbaston (now long redundant and closed) had a Nave organ installed in 1891! The work, along with some additions & revoicing of the main organ was done by Nicholsons. The main organ was in a South chancel chamber, and was a reasonably sized 3 manual, having been moved to the chancel from the West End by Henry Jones, the original builder, in 1886 - 9 years after it was built.
The Nave organ was elevated at the head of the South Nave aisle - and on a very convoluted tracker action! Playable from Great or Choir, the stop list was:-
Double Diapason Bass 16
Double Diapason Treble 16
Large Open 8
Small Open 8
Clarabella 8
Principal 4
Harmonic Flute 4
Trumpet 8
Spare slide
When I knew the instrument in the 1970's. the Nave disvision was all but unplayable, so I can't really coment on its effectiveness (the main organ wasn't far behind, but we did manage to make it useable).
Full stop list on NPOR at N07334
Perhaps such departments are not as new a phenomenon as we might think!

Perhaps such departments are not as new a phenomenon as we might think!
Well, I guess the idea of reinforcing singing where the main organ won't reach singers might be as old as the Ecclesiological and Tractarian movements are. At least according to Nicholas Thistlethwaite (Victorian Organ, p. 310f), it was in consequence of those reforms that organs were banned from musically and acoustically efficient locations into corners, chancels, and triforiums.
re Colin's remarks: Thanks for these – very informative, and coming with a good explanation for the coming-about of that monster, the Large Open. With the organ at an acoustical disadvantage from the outset (see above), inventions such as this one, utilitarian but not necessarily musically satisfying, were bound to happen – as was, with the arrival of electric action, the nave organ. Personally, I'd prefer one of those anytime. And yes, a Double on the manuals does not hurt, as I have felt many times when singing in service – indeed, a fairly strong bass tends to help as well.
How big then would be the step to having a full organ in the nave, if a small one? Something like 16 8 8 4 3 2 IV, 8 4 4 2 Sesq III 8, 16 (Gt) 16 8 4 16
In Freiburg Minster (G), where the organbuilders had to deal with four acoustically distinct spaces (crossing, chancel, nave, and tower), four full organs were built in the 1960ies (Späth, later replaced by Metzler; Marcussen; 2 x Rieger). The nave organ is the most effective one, as well as the smallest of the four (II/21). Here, the Great has no Double, and borrowing between Great and Pedal is prohibited by the prodigious scale of the Pedal Open 16, which makes it the building's secret 32'. Nevertheless, it carries the singing very nicely all by itself. The large Rieger is much more beefy, especially since its revoicing in 2000, but not quite as noble and easy on the ears.
All best wishes

We attended the excellent Advent Procession at Durham Cathedral this evening: the combined drama of liturgy, movement, darkness/light, and of course music was most effective and moving. Clearly a great deal of skilful preparation had gone in, so big thanks to the cathedral team.
However, the limitations of the wonderful Willis/Harrison organ as an instrument to lead congregational singing in the nave seemed significant to me. Even though we were sited less than half-way down the nave, the ensemble problems between the organ/choir and congregation were noticeable. Deployment of the tubas at various pitches on the melody line also did little to help bring the congregation together. Whilst I am not accustomed to nave services at Durham, being a newcomer, and I probably am more sensitive to this matter than others, it does seem to me that the provision of a nave organ could make a positive contribution here.
Posted 27 November 2016 - 02:36 AM
I remember being at Durham when they were commemorating the Venerable Bede. There was a procession (including congregation) to the Galilee Chapel at the west end, singing "For all the saints" - and there didn't seem to be a problem
in co-ordination, although there ought to have been!
Posted 26 December 2016 - 05:07 PM
I wonder if the Worcester scheme will ever be completed.
There have been various revisions, but there is apparently a current version of the scheme still under active consideration. My knowledge (such as it is) comes from a private conversation that I won't quote from without permission, but I was entirely convinced that the lack of public information is not indicative of a lack of effort among those concerned. (It may also be worth observing that the confidently critical opinions thrown about on Facebook a while ago about the contents of the old organ case were quite wildly inaccurate.)
Posted 27 December 2016 - 10:07 PM
Liverpool (Anglican) cathedral is another example, having a Central division mounted in a gallery below the windows of the easternmost nave bay. It is a modest 16-8-4-2-II/VI specification and I do wonder how effective it is given that the monumental main organ cases are just the other side of the central crossing, though mounted much higher up.
Out of interest, what effect does having a nave division have on congregational time-keeping? Should a congregation that is is filling a cathedral all be singing simultaneously (in which case those at the back may well be confused by hearing the nave division a fraction of a second before the main organ, assuming the latter is in the transepts or choir? Or should the action of the nave division ideally be slightly delayed so that those at the back of the cathedral sing slightly behind those at the front? All down to the infuriatingly slow speed of sound!

All down to the infuriatingly slow speed of sound!
An interesting point. I suppose that the positioning of the nave organ needs to be quite judicious, such that the difference between the onset of the sound of the main and nave organs are not too great, yet the nave organ is still able to effectively support the congregation towards the west end.
Conversely, if the two organs are positioned sufficiently far apart, and each is not too loud, perhaps the congregation at the more extremes of the building may not be distracted by the sound of the more distant organ any more than by the already existing sound of reverberation?
In any event, I'm sure that experiments are carried out by the builder and designer to ensure the most effective siting.

Symonds gets Ashes boost
Andrew Symonds has been retained as a centrally contracted player ahead of the Australian Ashes squad being named.
Last Updated: 14/05/09 9:58am
Controversial all-rounder Andrew Symonds has been retained as a centrally contracted player ahead of the Australian Ashes squad being named.
The 33-year-old has endured a tumultuous eight months off the field but has retained his place in the 25-man list announced by Cricket Australia in Adelaide.
His inclusion is a boost for his chances of being selected next Wednesday in Australia's Ashes squad.
The list contains seven new faces - as expected, Phillip Hughes, Peter Siddle, Andrew McDonald and Marcus North were handed contracts after strong Test form against South Africa.
New South Wales off-spinner Nathan Hauritz, the only slow bowler on the list, was rewarded for his encouraging recent performances in the one-day arena.
Star batsman Callum Ferguson won his first CA contract as did his South Australia team-mate and wicketkeeper Graham Manou, whose deal is a strong indication he is now viewed as Brad Haddin's understudy.
Important part
"Callum Ferguson has had an impressive debut in one-day cricket and will be an important part of our future in that form of the game," said chairman of selectors Andrew Hilditch.
"He'll be looking to take every opportunity to force his way into Test cricket.
"Graham Manou has been named as the other wicketkeeper on the list. No-one can doubt his credentials following his performance in state cricket over the last two seasons, in all forms of the game."
The seven new faces replace retired pair Matthew Hayden and Stuart MacGill, forgotten opener Phil Jaques, leg-spinner Beau Casson, Western Australian batsman Adam Voges and pace duo Shaun Tait and Ashley Noffke.
Victorian star Brad Hodge holds onto his contract despite not playing for his country in nearly 12 months, but batting sensation David Warner and spinner Jason Krejza missed out.
Contracts are awarded to players based on their form over the past 12 months, their likelihood of playing for Australia in the next 12 months, team balance and the need to ensure the future development of Test and limited overs teams.
Players are ranked from one to 25 by national selectors and paid accordingly.
CA contracted players: Doug Bollinger, Nathan Bracken, Stuart Clark, Michael Clarke, Callum Ferguson, Brad Haddin, Nathan Hauritz, Ben Hilfenhaus, Brad Hodge, James Hopes, Phillip Hughes, David Hussey, Michael Hussey, Mitchell Johnson, Simon Katich, Brett Lee, Graham Manou, Shaun Marsh, Andrew McDonald, Marcus North, Ricky Ponting, Peter Siddle, Andrew Symonds, Shane Watson, Cameron White.

Mainstreaming biodiversity for well-being is critical in sustainable food systems. Diversity of diets, of the crops and animal products produced, of the varieties of these crops, and of the cultures and actors managing and benefiting from this diversity, is increasingly identified as key to food system sustainability. Agrobiodiversity is also integrated in the Aichi Targets for the Convention on Biological Diversity and the Sustainable Development Goals. Currently, however, there is no consistent way of tracking agricultural biodiversity in food systems.
To manage agrobiodiversity, we need to measure it.
Building on agrobiodiversity science combined with new innovative approaches, interconnected databases and an active ground-rooted network, a new global service of agrobiodiversity tracking can be initiated for governments and their development partners, to inform policies and create an enabling environment for sustainable investment. Other exciting applications include structuring part or all of a green bond around agrobiodiversity and to rate the performance of companies to guide and stimulate investment in agriculture and the value chain in ways that improve food system diversity and sustainability. For example, the green bond market is worth USD 600 billion and rising. However only USD 2 billion of that investment has been directed to food and agriculture, in part because no metrics have been developed for food system sustainability.
This side event, co-hosted by Bioversity International and the European Commission, will showcase the rationale, intellectual underpinning, and uses of an Agrobiodiversity Index and how it can be a key tool for countries, financial markets and corporations to increase private and public investment in sustainable food and agriculture.
Evidence will be presented on four interlinked dimensions in which the world's agrobiodiversity interacts with the global food system: healthy diets, resilient and productive agroecosystems, dynamic seed systems and agrobiodiversity conservation. This will be followed by a panel discussion on the opportunities and challenges ahead in effectively mainstreaming biodiversity in sustainable food systems.
Panel members will represent CGIAR, the European Commission, governments and the private sector (final panel line-up to be confirmed).
Lunch will be served. Space is limited, so if you wish to attend this event, please RSVP to Aman Sidhu so we can reserve your seat and lunch

I used jeff's rub and I have a question. How much rub do you guys use? Per jeff's recipe the rub makes 2 cups and is good for 2 racks of ribs. How much would you use on a butt? I used just shy of two cups, doing what I thought was a thorough job of applying it. I could barely taste the rub when it was time to eat. not saying this was a bad thing as the main flavors were the meat and smoke, but I am kind of wondering the point of doing flavored rubs. I think next time I'll just use salt, pepper, onion, and garlic powder and see how it turns out.
Edit: Also, I threw a roll of sage breakfast sausage on with the butt for breakfast yesterday and that turned out great!

Monday, May 07, 2007
Up close and personal with Aditya Narayan after he has signed as the anchor of Zee's 'Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Challenge 2007-Sangeet ka Pratham Vishwa-Yudh'.
Q: How is it feeling hosting Zee 'Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Challenge 2007-Sangeet ka Pratham Vishwa-Yudh'?
A: It is feeling nice that I have got the opportunity of hosting such a good show. It is not a new show; it has been on television since the past thirteen years now and has done very well. So when I was approached by the channel, initially I thought about it but I guess there was no need of thinking. I accepted the show even though I was not planning to begin my career before my studies. Also it is a musical based show, and I'm passionate about music.
Q: So that must be adding a greater responsibility on your shoulders as an anchor?
A: Yes it does add a sense of responsibility. Earlier too the anchors were Sonu bhaiya and Shaan bhaiya who did a very good job here on the show. Actually it is a show which does not have any usual anchors. I'm not pointing my fingers at other anchors, but here the anchors here have been related to music so as an anchor too one can comment on the performance of the participants. But I will try to do my best.
Q: Do you have any prior experience of anchoring?
A: No I do not have any prior experience.
Q: So are you undergoing any kind of homework or training?
A: I have been watching the show for a long time now and so have a bit of cue. Also I have been with the team of Zee where I had been briefed about how to go about it. I do have an experience of acting but it is different from anchoring. So I do not have to worry when professionals are guiding me. Also I will learn as time passes by.
Q: Tell us a bit about your academic background?
A: I was doing my graduation here but in between I left for London where I did a Diploma in English Contemporary Music. Now I'm in Mumbai for the past three month and willing to complete my graduation. I have also learnt Indian classical music from Satyanarayan Mishra and also took training under Kalyanji Anandji.
Q: Why Diploma in English Contemporary Music? Was it your choice?
A: See I want to know music to the fullest. Not just Indian or classical, I want to learn international music and in truly international way. It was purely my choice; Uditji did not want me to go abroad, but I forced my decision on him.
Q: So what are your future plans?
A: I have a lot planned for future. I want to do good work where I can utilize my capabilities to the fullest. I want to do good work and put in my best efforts in whatever I would do.
Q: Does it include films too?
A: Yes why not. I have acted before and will do films if I get good work which I can identify with. But my first preference would always be music. But I tell you it will not only be in films but also in other aspects. I want to spread my wings.

MANATEE COUNTY, Fla. -- The City of Palmetto wants to put a stricter noise ordinance in place.
According to the Bradenton Herald, the city council called for documented enforcement measures. Meaning police will use noise-reading meters when responding to a noise complaint.
Several complaints have been reported near the Rivera Dunes Marina.
Now the city wants to tweak the ordinance so they have a better understanding of what is considered too loud.

* Q1 gross premiums written rise 9 pct to $2.01 bln
* Q1 gross premiums written in international markets rise 19 pct (Adds analyst quote; updates share movement)
By Esha Vaish
May 14 (Reuters) - Catlin Group Ltd, operator of the biggest syndicate in the Lloyd's of London insurance market, said it wrote 9 percent more premiums in the first quarter of the year, driven largely by demand for reinsurance sold by Catlin Re Switzerland.
The Bermuda-based company, which insures against everything from flooding to kidnapping, said gross premiums written rose to $2.01 billion from $1.84 billion a year earlier.
The company's international business, which comprises Asia Pacific, Europe and Canada, recorded a 19 percent jump in gross premiums written to $594 million.
The business accounted for about 30 percent of the company's gross premiums written in the quarter ended March 31, up from 27 percent a year earlier.
Insurers have been able to grow premiums in the Asia-Pacific region, a relatively untapped market, while cut-throat pricing has made growth difficult in the United States and the UK.
Catlin said there were no catastrophe losses during the quarter but it incurred a large single-risk loss related to the disappearance of the Malaysian Airlines flight MH370.
Authorities are yet to trace the aircraft, which disappeared more than two months ago after straying miles off its designated route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing.
Peel Hunt analyst Mark Williamson estimated claims related to the flight to be between $250 million and $350 million.
"It's not outside of (Catlin's) normal sort of pattern of loss expectations ... it's not one of those losses that's going to change forecasts at the moment," said Williamson.
Catlin's communications head, James Burcke, declined to comment on the size of the loss related to the missing flight.
Burcke said the company was comfortable with its previous forecast of a growth of 5-10 percent in gross premiums written, noting that its geographical spread and the range of risks it covers would make up for a slump in catastrophe rates.
"With a benign claims environment in (the first quarter), profitability is likely to be solid as the (company) builds up earnings buffers ahead of the hurricane season," JP Morgan Cazenove analyst Andreas van Embden said in a note.
An absence of major hurricanes last year, increased pricing pressure and a rise in demand for "catastrophe bonds" have kept a check on catastrophe reinsurance rates.
Catastrophe bonds allow insurers to share risks and raise money collectively in case of a major disaster.
Catlin's shares were marginally up at 522.5 pence at 1146 GMT on Wednesday on the London Stock Exchange.
The stock has fallen about 10 percent this year to Tuesday's close, largely underperforming the FTSE All Share Nonlife Insurance Index, which gained over 3 percent during the same period. (Reporting by Esha Vaish and Richa Naidu in Bangalore; Editing by Sunil Nair and Saumyadeb Chakrabarty)

Author | Deepa Balasubramanian | Friday, Jul 13,2012 11:14 PM
The Association of Indian Magazines (AIM), in partnership with exchange4media, presented the AIM Engagement Survey to the media industry on July 11, 2012 in Bangalore, as part of a three-city tour.
"Magazines convey a story at its best," said V Vasantha Kumar, India South Asia Brand and Communications Leader, IBM, when speaking at the event.
The objective of a particular brand is of extreme important when it comes to choosing a medium. Magazines help easily reach consumers in a colourful way.
Stressing on the importance of the word 'engagement', Kumar remarked, "The word 'engagement' is what the marketers have to think about. Engaging people can be done in various medium and that depends on what kind of product is being brought to the market. "
The next point leveraged on being impactful and creative if the brand wants it to be noticeable in the market. The two keywords for getting consumers to select the brand are engagement and impact.
He further said, "It is not only about visibility but also relevence. The relevant content has to be shown to people on a relevant platform. For example, a soap brand cannot think of advertising in an automobile magazine. It is all about getting to the right people in the right way."
In IBM, he said, everything depends on the objective. He further comments, "Most of us have grown up with magazines. The emotional attachment we have with them has driven us toward this medium and this adds to the power of the medium."
The third and the last point he made was that digital is the next level of communication. New Media will be a big deal but still story telling is and will be the best in magazines, he concluded.

World's Best Grilled Steak
Recipe by Chef Dee
Tender juicy steaks on the grill are one of life's pleasures. This is the best marinade we have ever come across. It is the perfect blend of flavors and it leaves the meat tender without being overpowering. Note: I'm not sure of the origins of this recipe, I don't see a duplicate. Will post a picture.
Top Review by twotoedtoad
The best Steak recipe ever. I do not know if anyone has tried to improve on it, but I tried, and I feel I did. I used 1/8 cup less soy sauce and let it soak in a baggy instead. I tried it both ways and several times and this seems to be the best by far.

Related terms for "photocatalytic air purification ": air purification articles
Recently, the photocatalytic activity of titania has attracted considerable attention for solving various environmental problems. Photocatalysis is considered to be effective in air purification, water purification, and used for dealing with various types of environmental pollution. The smaller the particle size of titania, the faster the photocatalysis proceeds. Since our previous study revealed ...
The TiO2 photocatalytic degradation of 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) and pentachlorophenol (PCP) was examined using a prototype photoreactor fabricated by Nulite. The degradation of both pollutants proved very efficient as in 12 min it was possible to bring the concentration of 2,4-DCP from 10 to 0.5 p.p.m. and in a separate experiment the concentration of PCP from 100 to 0.5 p.p.b. The effect of ...
Sr4Al14O25:(Eu, Dy)/TiO2-xNy composites were synthesised via the solvothermal reaction followed by the mild ball–milling, and the photocatalytic activities were evaluated for deNOx ability both under artificial solar irradiation with 69.3 W/m² and after turning off the light. It was confirmed that TiO2-xNy ...
ABSTRACT An indoor air purification technique, which combines unipolar ion emission and photocatalytic oxidation (promoted by a specially designed RCI cell), was investigated in two test chambers, 2.75 m3 and 24.3 m3, using nonbiological and biological challenge aerosols. The reduction in particle concentration was measured size selectively in realtime, and the Air Cleaning Factor and the Clean ...

Auto enthusiasts know that economy is built into each Volkswagen, and know that only top quality repair Routan parts will suffice when maintenance needs to be done. It's not all the time that you find yourself in need of a replacement Strut Mount to fix your car or truck. The vehicle in your driveway symbolizes the best in class compared to all the other vehicles currently being driven today. Your Volkswagen dealership isn't the only place to locate the best replacement parts for your Routan.
The handling of your car or truck is the result of an evolved suspension. Your vehicle's MacPherson strut suspension can be used on front or rear wheels, and allows them to achieve more rotation using fewer parts. At the top of the your strut is your Volkswagen Routan strut mount, and it is a bushing with a metal sleeve in the center for the strut rod to fasten to and pivot inside. It is this pivot that the strut mount provides that allows your wheels to change location and orientation a few degrees so it can accommodate changes in the road. The first time that cars could adapt this well was when the strut mount came along, and your Volkswagen Routan owes its comfortable ride to it.
Procuring new Volkswagen parts from www.carpartsdiscount.com means you are paying the lowest prices for the absolute greatest original and aftermarket replacement Routan parts on the internet. Given all the hassles associated with repairing damage to your car or truck, let www.carpartsdiscount.com be the first place you go to make buying it easy. Buy all the car parts you will ever need from carpartsdiscount.com and save time and money on all your upcoming repairs. When it comes to Volkswagen Routan Strut Mount parts, you can find them for 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009 models by clicking the appropriate year below.

Product Information
Spend time outdoors with this stylish hooded Guardian Gear Insect Shield Paisley Dog Pullover to offer protection against biting insects.
Why We Love It:
Trendy, two-toned paisley dog pullover that is treated with Insect Shield® to protect pets from biting insects.This patent-pending process binds a proprietary permethrin formula tightly to fabric fibers – resulting in effective, odorless insect protection. Made of 65% Polyester, 35% Cotton. Machine wash in cold water on gentle cycle. Line dry.
*Insect Shield® can be washed 70 times – the expected lifetime of the garment.
Sizing Information:
X-Small: Chest 13" Neck 9" Length 10"
Small: Chest 14" Neck 10" Length 12"
Small/Medium: Chest 17" Neck 12" Length 14"
Medium: Chest 20" Neck 13" Length 16"
Large: Chest 26" Neck 17" Length 20"
Very happy with this hoodie! Runs true to size. Very well made with the fabric being tightly weaved so the insects can't penetrate.
This pullover is awesome. It looks so cute on my dog, and helps with insect control. This is our third one of the Guardian Gear pullovers, and they really work. They are thin, and also work well as pajamas. The pullovers have been a lifesaver for us because our dog cannot have her worm and flea topical combined with another one that controls mosquitos and ticks because of the flea medicine that's in it. She has had breast cancer, (and is now in remission, thank God) , and I am leery about giving her oral preventives . I feel that topicals are a little safer, at least for her, so the Gaurdian Gear pullovers are really a great choice for her. I have seen mosquitos fly away from it. You won'r regret buying this pullover. I would give it 5+ stars if I could.
This insect shield pullover is doing what it's supposed to do. Even if my dog is protected with medication, using extra protection without chemicals is always welcome. I do wash them by hand. I've been buying these pullovers for 2 years now for my 10-pd Cavachon. So far so good. I live in the south so I start using them in April until November. I take her out for a walk twice a day. We live near a lake surrounded by woods. I would suggest buying at least 3 and throwing them out at the end of the season. Get fresh ones the following year to make sure you have full protection, as they are good for 70 washes only.
love these insect guard shirts... just makes be feel more at ease when we are outdoors.
We ordered this and it is even cuter than it looks in the pictures. I like that it is a lighter weight fabric (for a hoodie) and good for spring weather especially with the insect shield!! I can't wait for all the snow to melt and start walking and losing the extra pounds we picked up over the winter!!!
I bought this for My Mom's dog, Tinkerbell. She looks so cute in it.
I love this pullover for my sweet fur baby. The size is perfect for her. It looks just like it did in the picture on the website. I love to shop at BaxterBoo for my fur baby.

Garry Monk says he rejected other offers to return to management because he was waiting for a special job like Leeds to come up.
The former Swansea manager has been linked with the Aston Villa and Fulham posts in recent months, but Monk admitted none of the offers that came in appealed to him.
Leeds owner Massimo Cellino's long search for a new manager finally ended on Thursday and Monk revealed he feels he is perfectly suited to being the Leeds boss.
"I feel I have a way of working that will suit Leeds United, that will suit the players that are here," said Monk speaking to the Yorkshire Evening Post.
"The way that the club wants to grow as well and the way the club wants to push forward and have success – I think we all want that.
"I can sense that and especially with the fanbase that we have here, I think of all that, when you put it together is somewhere where you want to be.
"It's a big, big challenge but it's a really big attraction as well. I have had other options. I have had other people talk to me but for whatever reasons, whether it was timing or it wasn't the right situation, I feel this is the right situation for me.
"This is what I have been waiting for. I'm ready to go."
Previous manager Steve Evans left Elland Road at the start of the week after months of speculation about his future.
Evans had been hoping for a permanent contract after he steered Leeds out of a relegation fight and eventually achieved a 13th place finish in the Championship.
In other Leeds news, Cellino has told his new manager how much input he wants with affairs on the pitch.

Winner and loser of the week in Florida politics
Winner of the week
Carlos Lopez-Cantera. For most of the summer, the lieutenant governor and Miami Republican was hardly visible, almost in political exile. But since September began, Gov. Rick Scott suddenly has Lopez-Cantera back in the public eye, hitting the road, touring businesses, visiting schools and attending meetings.
Loser of the week
Rick Kriseman. St. Petersburg's mayor had to explain how millions of gallons of partially treated sewage ended up in the wrong place, despite warnings. Awash in state and federal inquiries into the spills, Kriseman placed two top officials on leave. Late Friday, Kriseman then admitted that 58 million gallons of spilled sewage wasn't as clean as he claimed

Yesterday, was a holiday here in the United States.
January in Orange County – Railroad Tracks along beach
I knew it …
And, forgot it, all at the same time.
I'm expecting a package from overseas and it requires a signature at delivery.
Yesterday morning, I checked the package's tracking information and it said the package was out for delivery "today."
My brain accepted this fact as truth – completely forgetting there's no mail delivery on holidays.
I rearranged my day … putting off my errands and plans so I would be home to sign for the package.
At noon, I began feeling impatient for the mail delivery.
I had stuff to DO … I sure wished my mail lady would show up SOON.
Instead, Fed-Ex dropped off a different (way less exciting!) delivery.
(Fed-Ex, obviously, works on national holidays.)
The Fed-Ex delivery calmed me down for awhile as I continued to wait for the signature required mail delivery.
At 1:00 p.m., I bemoaned how late my mail person was running.
At 1:30 I realized there would be no mail delivery due to the holiday and knew I had wasted most of my day.
At 1:31 I realized I'll be waiting around to sign for the package all over again tomorrow/today ….
Effectively, doubling the amount of time I've wasted.
These are the blonde moments I'm most proud of?
Oh well, my arm is such a disaster right now, maybe it's best I have a slow day or two?
In the meantime, here's a photo of a wind-blown Fred playing chase with me on the beach last weekend:
"Chase me again!" — Fred The Newf
Fred sure has fun romping at the beach.
Fred The Newf enjoys watching a beach sunset.
Fred always takes a long nap after beach time.
Walking on the sand is hard work?

When you submit a new word or phrase to UrbanDictionary and immediately (or eventually) many other authors make a definition for it as well that is usually a horrible spin-off, a wrong version of it, or generally the same thing - they're trying to take credit for it. Usually happens to those that are deemed "word of the day". Also - irony points if it happens to this.

Problem with loose right front bumper
By Cal on
Vehicle2010 Lexus RX 350 4dr SUV (3.5L 6cyl 6A)
ReviewAfter a few weeks, I noticed that part of the right front bumper was sticking out and up. I found out that it was loose. The left side is OK. I took it back to Crown Lexus of Ontario, CA whose service rep said that they know about the problem. I was given a similar vehicle and I noticed that it has the same problem. When I picked my RX350 up, it had the same problem. They told me to drive it until Lexus can find a better solution to just installing a "bracket". I am still waiting for them to fix the problem. Check your 2010 RX350. It proabably has the same problem.
Best FeaturesThe options:Turning headlights when you turn, motorized rear door, auto- shutoff of high beams.
Worst FeaturesGive the driver the choice of turning off the auto dimming rear and side view mirrors, tilt the side view mirrors more downward, relocate the parking brake pedal, give the driver the ability to turn off the Eco indicator--it is very annoying when it turns off and on.

Takamaru's Ninja Castle is an upcoming 3DS game based off of the Japan exclusive game remade for Nintendo Land on the Wii U. In the game you control a wood-crafted Ninja on a side scrolling adventure through dark castles, but instead of jumping on enemy's heads to kill them, you'll throw ninja stars at the also wood-crafted enemies. Most enemies take 2-5 ninja stars to kill, and since you only have a limit of 20 ninja stars to throw each level, spamming the attack button just won't work.
Legend has that three goblins invaded Saradtown long ago and put a curse on the queen that won't be active for thousands of years. Thousands of years later, an ancestor of the very queen that was said to be cursed, young princess Maidna, turned sick. The only way to cure young princess Maidna is to find the medicine guarded by the very three goblins that infected the queen countless years ago, and the goblins are guarded by hundreds of ninjas. The Saradtown ninja himself, Takamaru, volunteered to go get the medicine, thus embarking on a journey that he'll cherish time and time again.
There is no world layout in this game. You'll find yourself progressing through random levels with the title of the area being mentioned at the start of each one. There are 75 different levels, each with their own unique name. It wouldn't be much fun for either me or you to mention and see them all, so I'll just say that about 30 levels take place in a medieval town environment with 45 taking place in either dark or light-filled castles.
Appearances In Other Games
Takamaru has less appearances than the Ice Climbers, so I'll take the curtesy of adding little nit bits and easter eggs based off of Takamaru's game. And he shouldn't only have appearances in my games - why don't you mention a little bit of the wooden ninja in your Fantendo articles? You never know, he might become a worldwide sensation.
Here is a list of the upcoming titles you should see Takamaru in:
Super Luigi Bros. - Takamaru appears in various areas, taking the place of the 8-Bit Luigi easter egg from 3D World.
Ice Climber Uprising - Takamaru is rarely mentioned by Vudu at the tutorial screen with the dialogue, "I'm going to teach you the basics of climbing, Nana and Takamaru - er, scratch that - Popo."
Donkey Kong Country: Winter Breeze - Takamaru is the name of a random enemy in the first level of World 4.
New Super Mario Bros 3. - Takamaru is faintly written on the bottom of every character's poncho.

Australis is not backward-compatible and I currently can't afford the time that would be required to fix its user experience, as I'd need to change the overall UI (and not only the theme-relevant bits of it) in order to preserve the look and feel of this theme.
If I don't find a browser better than the new Australis-Firefox, I might update this at some time. Thanks for your support over the last 3 years, though!
