From John Ross Crooks III: I love it when the mainstream financial press catches onto a good idea. Because that's how I know it will soon be time to sell.
Back in December, I jumped on the idea that gold was set to rally. If not just a corrective rebound, then a much-greater probability for a substantial climb than the financial press could imagine at the time.
Pattern analysis, including a comparison with year-ago circumstances, bore out my prediction.
So far, so good. Gold has gained more than 10% since its Dec. 14 low.
But now that everyone is "catching on," I think gold could soon meet overhead resistance.
In fact, I'll be looking to sell gold (or wait for a new buying opportunity) if the current rally hits a range between $1,277 and $1,288 …
Granted, I think any shorting of gold at these levels should be considered only in a short-term, active capacity. In other words, if you make a bet against it, keep a very close eye on it.
That's because a new buying opportunity is likely to surface in the ballpark of $1,200 an ounce.
Yes, gold could extend the downtrend that dragged it down in the second half of 2016 … and in the year prior. But I think things are shaping up right now to have gold hit materially higher levels than $1,288, for example, before this year is over.
What Things are Shaping Up?
Perhaps recent comments from Bill Gross can shed some light. Last week, he basically said the central bankers cannot and will not abandon accommodative monetary policy.
Gross didn't put the onus of accommodation on the Fed as much as he did on the Bank of Japan and the European Central Bank. He implied the Fed pretty much has no choice but to remain idle, with other conditions remaining the same.
His comments hinge very much on the same narrative I figured would help change the sentiment for gold in the early going this year. That is: The persistent overhang of debt would undermine everyone's confidence in rate-hike expectations.
Here is an excerpt from comments I shared with my Currency Options Alert subscribers two weeks ago, when I recommended they jump on a new trade that plays this very narrative:
[Look] at how long Japan has festered in a low-interest-rate environment.
That's 2.5 lost decades and counting, if you're keeping track at home.
For comparison, here is the same chart for the benchmark U.S. interest rate …
So far, not quite a decade hugging the zero bound.
Oddly enough, it was about the same time after rates were taken to zero that the Bank of Japan took a chance to hike rates … just like the Federal Reserve is doing today.
That didn't last long.
Have we not gotten ahead of ourselves? Are we reading too much into this supposed "path to normalization" rather than what seems more and more like the Fed simply trying to appease its critics, manage perceptions and soothe the markets?
I think we need to continue looking at what this debt overhang means for growth potential. For example, what it means for the U.S. government's ability to spearhead an infrastructure spending program … which many market-watchers are widely expecting.
I think it bodes ill.
But rather than beat a bunch of dead economic horses that aren't going to make a difference for you right now, I'll just steer you to one thing that is worth worrying about …
Gasoline demand has been a major disappointment. It has fallen to lows not seen since 2012.
Source: ZeroHedge, Goldman Sachs |
What's going on?
Well, the glut of crude oil has become a glut of gasoline.
While that has implications for crude oil demand and refinery runs, it doesn't explain the drop-off in demand. The only thing that could explain the drop-off — besides the smoke and mirrors of the refining industry — is that U.S. consumers are losing their appetite for spending at the pump.
And that's happened while volatility in the price of gasoline has been relatively muted.
Should we take this as a warning sign of American consumers' health?
If so, the sky is looking up for gold.
Traders, just be careful with your timing.
The SPDR Gold Trust ETF (NYSE:GLD) fell $0.9 (-0.77%) in premarket trading Monday. Year-to-date, GLD has gained 6.48%, versus a 3.74% rise in the benchmark S&P 500 index during the same period.
GLD currently has an ETF Daily News SMART Grade of B (Buy), and is ranked #5 of 33 ETFs in the Precious Metals ETFs category.

Where have all the feminists gone?Reader comment on: Europe: The Case of the Vanishing Women Submitted by Silent, Jan 5, 2017 15:04 Where are all these Women Lib's and Feminists who seek equality for women? Do they only go after white males? Isn't that a form of discrimination? I was there when the Women's Lib came into being. They had some very valid issues at the time and it helped to bring equality to women. Now that we need to hear their voices more then ever they are totally silent. It would seem the feminist movement has taken on a whole new direction. I am not sure where they are headed but I have a feeling neither do they. At a time when their voices are so desperately needed they have forsaken the cause. They can no longer walk around with a smug look on their face thinking they made a difference. Women are being discriminated against and held hostage all over the world. The feminists should be coming out in the thousands to support these individuals who are trying to make their voices heard. One or two women who are trying to make their cause heard is only falling on deaf ears. If the feminists around the world would stand up and make their voices heard then these one or two women would not feel betrayed. Where are YOU?

However, the real magic happens once you take it online. Not only can you compete on virtual versions of famous courses, such as the biking portion of Hawaii's Ironman Triathlon, but you get to compete against others as well. You'll receive detailed information on everyone's heart and breath rates, and this will allow you to get a real feel for your competition.AdvertisementHowever, I will warn you to be careful with bikes like these. Back at CES '07, I tried out a similar bike (not the 8i). And while it was 99.5% realistic, that fraction of a percent caused me to peddle much harder than necessary, and left me just short of an asthma attack. Long story short; unless you're a pro just go get a real bike, a real friend and go outside. [CNET]Reply18 repliesLeave a reply

Plug the BNC test lead into Channel A on the PicoScope. Place a black clip on the black probe (negative) and connect this to a suitable ground point. Connect a Back-pinning Probe to the coloured lead (positive) to backpin one of the potentiometer connections within the accelerator pedal position sensor multiplug as shown in Figure 1.
Plug the BNC test lead into Channel B on the PicoScope. Connect a Back-pinning Probe to the coloured lead (positive) to backpin the other potentiometer connection within the accelerator pedal position sensor multiplug. If a suitable automotive breakout lead is available, this may be used instead of the back-pinning method.
In this example the Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) sensor is of the potentiometer type. It receives two reference voltages from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM), having two ground wires and two signal wires that send a varying voltage back to the PCM relating to accelerator pedal position. The signal voltage sent back to the PCM may vary from manufacturer to manufacturer but will probably never be greater than 5 volts.
With the increasing level of electronic control and the subsequent decrease in moving mechanical parts it is inevitable that we will see more items being controlled in a "fly by wire manner".
One example of this is throttle control. The majority of vehicles currently being produced no longer use an accelerator cable but instead use an APP in conjunction with an electronic throttle control actuator (ETC) incorporating an electronic throttle motor and a throttle position sensor (TPS).
The APP is quite simply one or, more commonly, two potentiometers attached to the accelerator pedal. As the accelerator is depressed, a voltage signal is sent to the PCM relaying the actual position of the accelerator pedal and thus the driver's physical demand. As a result of this input, the PCM then generates an output to the relevant actuator; in this case the ETC. As previously mentioned, the APP commonly has two potentiometers. These are employed to act as a plausibility test and also to ensure a degree of failsafe operation.
Several methods are used to generate the signal. The great majority use the common 5 volt reference as is used throughout the engine management system. The two most common methods of signal generation are as follows:
Figure 2: Potentiometer 1 generates a signal of 0.3 to 4.8 volts (red trace in Figure 2) and potentiometer 2 generates a signal of 0.5 to 4.8 volts (blue trace in Figure 2). With an accelerator pedal position of 45 degrees, potentiometer 1 may be outputting a signal of 2 volts and potentiometer 2 a signal of 3 volts, for example.
Figure 3: Potentiometer 1 generates a signal of 0.3 to 4.8 volts (red trace in Figure 3) and potentiometer 2 generates a signal of 4.8 to 0.3 volts (blue trace in Figure 3). With an accelerator pedal position of 0 degrees, potentiometer 1 may output a signal of 0.5 volts and potentiometer 2 may output a signal of 4.5 volts.
Upon receiving signals in this manner the PCM is able to ensure that the information is correct; for example, if APP angle is 45 degrees, then potentiometer 1 outputs 2 volts and potentiometer 2 outputs 3 volts. If there is any deviation from this then the PCM detects a possible fault and logs a relevant fault code. If one potentiometer track should fail then once again the PCM is able to detect this and run in a failsafe or emergency mode, often raising the idle and limiting throttle operation and lighting the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL). The use of two potentiometers also enables the PCM to monitor the speed at which the accelerator is depressed and closed, the throttle position thus controlling fuelling accordingly.
Should you suspect a fault with the signal, test the wiring from the PCM to the APP.
Ensure that the PCM has good power supplies and grounds where required.
Test the APP (disconnected) with an ohmmeter.
Example pin data
Tested from a Smart Forfour 1.1 petrol 2005 MY.
Hella component
6 pin connector
Pin 1= 2.5 V reference voltage (yellow/red)
Pin 2= 5.0 V reference voltage (yellow/green)
Pin 3= Signal voltage, approx 1 V closed throttle & 3.8V open throttle (grey)
Pin 4= 0 V ground (brown/white)
Pin 5= 0 V ground (brown)
Pin 6= Signal voltage, approx 0.5 V closed throttle & 1.8 V open throttle (pink/black)
All figures quoted are approximate and measured by back pinning with ignition on and the multiplug connected.
This analogue/digital APP sensor produces an analogue voltage (Channel A, blue trace) and a digital output (Channel B, red trace). The analogue voltage is simply proportional to the pedal position, as in the previous waveform. The digital voltage is a sequence of approximately 12-volt pulses of varying width. The width of each pulse is proportional to the analogue voltage at that time, as shown in Figures 5a, 5b, 5c.

Through the first seven days of September, we're just about as "average" as one can be -- temperatures ended up at average despite some yo-yo in the thermometer over the course of the past seven days. Sunday was our warm day, Monday our soaking day -- the balance of the week was about as ideal as one can expect in September. We'll include that cool Friday in the mix as temperatures only getting into the lower 70's was a nice makeup for the muggy, tropical feel that Sunday and Monday wrought upon the region.
I also don't think anyone was complaining about having lows in the 50's (and 40's outside of the city) on Friday and Saturday mornings!
Monday's rains were prolific in a few spots -- 1.89" fell in Philadelphia, more than that in the Lehigh Valley, some of the Philadelphia suburbs, and in parts of South Jersey (had as much as four inches in a few spots!). The tropical torrent ahead of a cool front that slid through the region, timed with a ripple of energy that passed ahead of the front, was largely responsible for that soaking of rain.
Of course, not everyone saw that level of rainfall on Monday -- but it was our soaking to start the month of September where we left summer 2013.

Our colleague Alan Jenkins at the Opportunity Agenda shared this post. We couldn't have said it better, and share in sending our condolences to the Carter family.
On January 3rd, America lost one of the greatest champions of equal opportunity and human rights that our nation has ever known. Judge Robert L. Carter, civil rights lawyer, jurist, and fierce defender of justice, passed away at age 94 after suffering a stroke.
Judge Carter was a primary architect behind the U.S. Supreme Court's Brown v. Board of Education desegregation decision, crafting an innovative approach that blended constitutional scholarship, social science research, historical knowledge, and strategic litigation. After the victory, he pursued a strategy that helped bring desegregation to the North, where it had long been treated as an open secret. As a federal judge, he held litigants to the highest standards, while rigorously guarding equal justice under law. Over four decades on the bench, he brought greater inclusion to the New York Police Department and to construction trades that had long excluded people of color and women. And he continued to speak out against injustice wherever he encountered it. That he chose me as one of his law clerks was a singular honor; I remain humbled by having been able to serve in that capacity.
Indeed, those of us who have worked to fight prejudice and segregation owe a great debt to Judge Carter and must continue to work to honor his legacy. As Alan Jenkins wrote, " And we thank Judge Carter for his lifetime of service, for the transformative change he brought to our nation, and for the sterling example of leadership that he has given us all."

Strap in: We're in the middle of a mass extinction
Several studies suggest that the Earth is laboring through a sixth mass extinction of life, caused by habitat loss and global climate issues, USA Today reports.
Even as the human population has doubled in the past 35 years, invertebrate animals (i.e., bugs and insects) have declined by 45 percent, the report says. In the past five centuries, 322 species have gone extinct.
It's not the first time the Earth has undergone this transformation. The extinction that wiped out the dinosaurs about 66 million years ago also knocked off three of every four species, the report says. Before that, about 252 million years ago, an extinction erased about 90 percent of the world's species.
Just for further, depressing perspective: Scientists estimate that the sum total of all past mass extinctions means that about nine of 10 life forms that existed on our planet have gone extinct. TGIF!

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.
Got it!I was put on probation for 1 year in austin texas. The reason was damage to a car my lawyer got me that deal of probation. I was ticketed for no license and amplified music at one point as soon as it happen i let my p.o know she set up a hearing and i signed some paperrs that said if i mess up one more time i will go to jail for six months and have to pay 2000 dollars. i was on ly last month of probation and i only had to call in for my last month , but i got tickets again 2 p.o.m charges in one week and about 4traffic tickets and one possesion of parafenelia. i did not let my p.o know about it and she sent me a letter i had to sign to read that i have a meeting with her. what will happen ? can i hire a lawyer to keep me out of jail?
Well, yes you can and certainly should hire an attorney, but honestly, I'd say the odds of the attorney being able to keep you out of jail altogether are not great. You might end up with a somewhat better sentence, but apparently you didn't take that whole thing seriously about committing no other offenses, and yeah, you can very definitely go to jail for that. If I understand this correctly, after your first round of all this, which you got lucky and got forgiven, you somehow managed to pick up SEVEN new offenses in less than a month, two of them Class B drug charges. Ticket or not, you can get six months in jail for each of those, by the way. Honestly, as long as they file the MRP before the deadline, I cannot imagine the circumstances under which you're not going to end up in jail if those marihuana charges are at all valid (and maybe even if they're not), so "get your affairs in order", as they say.
i know so there is no hope so a lwayer would be a waste of money??

Sorry guys I know this is off topic, but I was asked a question that I didnt know how to answer.Why is the alter area of our Church restricted to Priest and a selected few?Why are not women generally allowed back there?Lord Have Mercy
Why not start another thread to ask this question?
The general rule is that only males (with the appropriate blessing) are allowed into the altar area. This would include clergy, altarboys, the warden/verger/neokoros/starosta of the church, readers of the epistle, and any other male deemed to have a legitimate reason to enter this area.
Anyone (male or female) who is given a blessing to enter the Holy of Holies (altar area) can do so, but this blessing is given for a specific purpose. Rather than think of it as being a rule about who is or isn't "worthy" to enter, we should rather think of it as a mark of respect for what is Sacred. Just like we wouldn't tread on someone's grave. Not treading on it is a mark of respect.
Canon LXIX - Council of Trullo (Quintisext)It is not permitted to a layman to enter the sanctuary (Holy Altar, Gk.), though, in accordance with a certain ancient tradition, the imperial power and authority is by no means prohibited from this when he wishes to offer his gifts to the Creator.
Canon XLIV - Council of Laodecia, Women may not go to the altar.Notes.Ancient Epitome of Canon XLIV.The altar must not be approached by women.
It has also seemed good to this holy Council, that the eighty-five canons, received and ratified by the holy and blessed Fathers before us, and also handed down to us in the name of the holy and glorious Apostles should from this time forth remain firm and unshaken for the cure of souls and the healing of disorders. And in these canons we are bidden to receive the Constitutions of the Holy Apostles [written] by Clement. But formerly through the agency of those who erred from the faith certain adulterous matter was introduced, clean contrary to piety, for the polluting of the Church, which obscures the elegance and beauty of the divine decrees in their present form. We therefore reject these Constitutions so as the better to make sure of the edification and security of the most Christian flock; by no means admitting the offspring of heretical error, and cleaving to the pure and perfect doctrine of the Apostles. But we set our seal likewise upon all the other holy canons set forth by our holy and blessed Fathers, that is, by the 318 holy God-bearing Fathers assembled at Nice, and those at Ancyra, further those at Neocæsarea and likewise those at Gangra, and besides, those at Antioch in Syria: those too at Laodicea in Phrygia: and likewise the 150 who assembled in this heaven-protected royal city: and the 200 who assembled the first time in the metropolis of the Ephesians, and the 630 holy and blessed Fathers at Chalcedon. In like manner those of Sardica, and those of Carthage: those also who again assembled in this heaven-protected royal city under its bishop Nectarius and Theophilus Archbishop of Alexandria. Likewise too the Canons [i.e. the decretal letters] of Dionysius, formerly Archbishop of the great city of Alexandria; and of Peter, Archbishop of Alexandria and Martyr; of Gregory the Wonder-worker, Bishop of Neocæsarea; of Athanasius, Archbishop of Alexandria; of Basil, Archbishop of Cæsarea in Cappadocia; of Gregory, Bishop of Nyssa; of Gregory Theologus; of Amphilochius of Iconium; of Timothy, Archbishop of Alexandria; of Theophilus, Archbishop of the same great city of Alexandria; of Cyril, Archbishop of the same Alexandria; of Gennadius, Patriarch of this heaven-protected royal city. Moreover the Canon set forth by Cyprian, Archbishop of the country of the Africans and Martyr, and by the Synod under him, which has been kept only in the country of the aforesaid Bishops, according to the custom delivered down to them. And that no one be allowed to transgress or disregard the aforesaid canons, or to receive others beside them, supposititiously set forth by certain who have attempted to make a traffic of the truth. But should any one be convicted of innovating upon, or attempting to overturn, any of the afore-mentioned canons, he shall be subject to receive the penalty which that canon imposes, and to be cured by it of his transgression.

When did we switch to 'boys' anyway? My parish has alterservers who are men (adults) which I took as being more traditional. Sorry for side question.
When did we switch to 'boys' anyway?

{Rant}Finally, the whole "altar boys" thing is a sham. When tonsured, they're tonsured as Readers, which is not an office requiring entry into the Holy of Holies. The duties they perform should be performed by a host of Subdeacons. {/Rant}
As I understand it, the office to which they should traditionally be tonsured is that of Tape-bearer/Ecclesiarch. Since this is generally no longer in use (just like exorcist or door-keeper), the prayers for tonsuring a Reader incorporates those for tonsuring a Tape-bearer.Tape-bearers may perform many of the duties of the Subdeacon, but not all (handing the dikiri and trikiri to the Bishop for example). And, of course, Subdeacons may not marry after ordination in many/most jurisdiction whereas Readers may.Is this correct?
I have no idea when the switch was made... You should ask GreekChef, whose husband did a thesis on the the Altar Boy (I think). I am personally in favor of having adults as the servers, and they should be made subdeacons (in the Greek fashion - ordained after marriage if they wish to be married, ordained while single only if they wish to remain celibate).
Could have even started much earlier, during the years of Tourkokratia in which there were very few clergy of any kind.
After the Epistle, the male chanters (some of whom I knew did not have a blessing to be in the altar) all went to hang out and chat in the altar for the rest of the Liturgy,
People hang out at the altar to chat during the liturgy? What?
I have been taught that those authorized to enter the sanctuary, the altar area, are those who have a purpose for being there, i.e. the celebrants, bishops and priests and those who serve or assist them in the performance of the Divine Services and in maintaining or caring for the sanctuary. Female monastics, who have a purpose, such as cleaning the sanctuary, are likewise authorized to be there. The authorization must come from the presiding priest.
Yes, you can imagine... They go back and forth between the Altar and the vestry, to be exact. But from where I was sitting I could see through the Altar and into the vestry where they were, and they were just standing and chatting (and this is routine, by the way, from what I understand).
Honestly, it drives me CRAZY to see random men wandering in and out of the altar during Divine Liturgy!
Honestly, it drives me CRAZY to see random men wandering in and out of the altar during Divine Liturgy! It also drives me nuts that the mythology that says "you can enter the altar if you are a man" still prevails. When I was working in my home parish as the director of sales and catering, this was a major problem. When I first started working, the thermostats for the sanctuary were located in the altar. This was a problem because I (a lowly woman...) was in charge of the facility, and during events, I had to be able to control the temperature. At first, I was calling people to come up to the church, go into the altar, and turn down the temperature. But this was (obviously) ridiculous. So I spoke with the Priest (who presumably spoke with the Bishop), and received the blessing to go into the Holy Altar to change the temperature (there were occasional other reasons that I would have to enter the Altar as well, because of the way the building was laid out, etc). He left it up to my discretion to use my judgement to know when I needed to enter the Altar. And I was in constant contact with both him and my father confessor. I took that as a heavy responsibility. But then I would turn around and see random guys in the parish going in and out of the altar, cutting through the altar to get into the vestry (instead of going around like the rest of us), etc and so forth. And they think they can do this because they are men. And nobody corrects them! That's what kills me! And it is like this in pretty much every parish I've ever been in! Oh, and by the way, in order to prevent the same problem happening with the girl that took my place when I left my home parish to go to the seminary, my priest actually MOVED the thermostats out of the Altar! The reason was because there were some people in the parish who did not like that I had been given a blessing to go in the Altar... because I was a woman. Please don't get me wrong. Lest I be accused of being some scary left wing woman who is going to go requesting ordination, let me be clear in stating that I do not believe in women being ordained, etc. However, I find some of the attitudes regarding women in the Holy Altar thoroughly offensive and insulting. This feeling did not come from anything said here, though. It is based on experiences such as the following: About two months ago I encountered a certain gentleman at a chant stand who, upon meeting me, made it very clear that he disapproved of me being at the chant stand, and he was totally disrespectful of both myself and my husband (who was celebrating the Divine Liturgy that day). I was at the chant stand through all of Orthros and into the Liturgy. After the Epistle, the male chanters (some of whom I knew did not have a blessing to be in the altar) all went to hang out and chat in the altar for the rest of the Liturgy, and I went to sit down in the pew. As I did so, the attitude the gentleman gave me was so insulting, and triumphalist, and was based totally on the fact that HE was allowed to enter the Altar because he was a man, and I couldn't because I was a woman. He went as far as to laugh at me in front of the entire congregation. Obviously his nannny-nanny-boo-boo attitude was childish, and I knew it, but I was actually embarrassed! I was embarrassed to be a woman! I was embarrassed that I could not enter the Altar! I felt like a child being punished for something that I couldn't help! The other experience that comes to mind: I was actually teased by a priest because I could not enter the Altar to venerate the relics he had in the Altar because I was a woman. My husband, God bless him, was kind enough to bring them to the altar door so that I could venerate them. Again, I was humiliated (and in front of several priests-- none of whom stood up for me), and was feeling lower than dirt for being a woman. What are we to do when our clergy themselves are furthering this type of thinking? This is the exact type of thinking that makes women in the Church feel that they are worth less than men, to feel that the Church has no place for them, to have all kinds of negative feelings that even I, who obviously know better, have struggled with. Anyway, I would love to hear other peoples' thoughts on this. This is a really difficult subject for me (which is why my post is so long... sorry!) and I would really like to hear what everyone else thinks. By the way, I just want to say also that it's really nice to be back on the forum. I've been gone for several months, because my husband and I transferred (we are now happily located in warm and sunny Atlanta! at the Greek Orthodox Cathedral of the Annunciation) and have been extremely busy. I missed this forum a lot, and it's good to be able to get back on and catch up now!!!! I missed you all!In Christ,Presbytera Mari
How does this explain the presence of altarboys in other countries such as Russia?
BTW Why do we call it the Holy of Holies? (Sorry for the uneducated questions)
panateomnia, Isn't "Iero" also the Greek word for the altar area, i.e. the Holy area?
Hi Someone raised the topic of Sub-deacon in one of there chats. I got married on Oct. 2001 and now I'm planning on becoming a Sub-deacon. If I were to loss my wife it would be hard for me to stay and remain celibate; but I will obey Church teaching and stay and remain celibate. GOD will help me serve HIM faithfully and HIS Orthodox Church.I want to reassure all of you that I will obey Church in this and all others. I'm looking forward to be ordained next year. I feel that anyone who becomes a religionist in the Orthodox Church should have eyes open and heart direct toward GOD. The canons that are written to prohibit actions taken by religionist or the ranking file Orthodox Christians are there for a reason.Right now I serve as an Acolyte at the Altar of my Church and find it very rewarding for me as a Christian. I hope to serve GOD people faithfully to the end of my life.I feel that the Altar is for men and not for women. I feel if GOD willed women to serve. HE would have made the Theotokos a priestess if HE wanted her to be so. Let us not add or subtract from the faith.Have a great day and GOD bless all of you.

I guess you'll have to be the one to tell the Theotokos that she shouldn't have gone into the Holy of Holies as a child; that she shouldn't have actually been the Holy of Holies through her giving birth to God Incarnate. Otherwise, I'll defer to her wisdom, and the wisdom of the Fathers and the Church.

Married men can be ordained to the Holy Orders without forced divorce - except Episcopal Ordination is off limits to Married men. What is your Orthodox Jurisdiction ?
^ If he became a widow, then his concern is remaining celibate as a sub-deacon (or greater) vs. remarrying as a sub-deacon (or greater) - OK, thanks.
If he became a widower as a subdeacon, he stated that his desire would be to get remarried, but he would not, in accordance with the Church's canons on the subject.One can be deposed or defrocked for divorcing their wives as a clergyman. One cannot be ordained a bishop if one has divorced his wife. So there is no such thing as a forced divorce for someone who wishes to be ordained. Episcopal ordination is off limits to those currently married, btw: widowers can in fact be ordained to the episcopacy ("husband of one wife" still applies, of course)
Actually, if I remember correctly, Patriarch Alexy II of Moscow was briefly married during the 1950's, and he and his wife divorced.

Advantages and disadvantages of ratio analysis
Published: Last Edited:
This essay has been submitted by a student. This is not an example of the work written by our professional essay writers.
Ratio analysis:
- With the help of accounting ratios, the financial information can be accessible in a further understandable form. Key information can be obtained by using ratio analysis. It also helps in establishing the business and also enlightening the financial position.
- By scheming different ratios businesses get useful information which helps a lot in decision making as you can easily compare the performances of your competitors and according to that increase profitability and growth.
- When analyzing accounting ratios, suitable information is achieved which assists in planning and forecasting for future.
- Communication can also be done with the support of ratios as staff of the companies can link with each other by using profit related ratios and company's sales which will generate the position of the business. Co-ordination is also achieved as weak points and strength points can easily be measured out with the help of ratios.
- Using ratios places all businesses in the similar field of play. All the companies are arbitrated by their performance and associating two companies at a time can help in obtaining which company is making high profit along with growth and sales. To sum up, comparison can be done with the service of ratios.
- By means of manipulating the solvency ratio, businesses can simply monitor the relationship between the liabilities and assets. If in some cases liabilities are on the complex side than the assets, the business can effortlessly measure out its financial position. This will benefit them to as if they want to establish or plan up to repay their loans.
- Accounting ratios are essential to measure the company's efficiency in terms of management and operations. This will help in refereeing how the company succeeds and exploits its assets and earnings.
- Ratio analysis also provides benefits in investment decisions to the investors alongside borrowing decisions in the situation of banks.
- Ratios can be calculated easily with the help of formulations which reduce the time for bookkeepers. Accountants can accomplish this swiftly after the preparations of financial statements. This delivers additional accounting data investigation at month close. It also creates a baseline for bookkeepers to practice in upcoming accounting stages.
- Historical trends can also be accompanied with the help of accounting ratios by the accountants. Stalking this ratio respectively every month is crucial to regulate if the business advances its financial position. Historical trend can be attained as accountants will often keep a review on the ratio every month as a part of the business's standard accounting development.
- Moreover, accounting measures helps in comparing companies but the benchmark may differ from each other. Monetary accounting ratios deliver a restored benchmark, because it cracks the financial accounting evidence into mathematical numbers that eliminate the alterations in assessments. Bookkeepers can create numerous comparisons among companies by consuming financial ratios.
- Audits use heavy amount of ratios which includes vast information about companies as comparison is a significant tool for an audit. This allows assessors to emphasize more on specific areas to evaluate a company's financial material.
- When calculating ratios, it is necessary to carry out the comparison between companies with related entity or else it would be inadequate. It is almost difficult to find companies with similar entity.
- Past accounting info is the prime source of data which is used for speculation ratio enquiry. It is almost very hard to make any significant decision from information that is already been outdated.
- Two different humans calculate various ratios and this can cause bias in judgments as information which is obtained by calculating these ratios are different which are prone to misleading and deceptive.
- While calculating investment ratio analysis different sources of information is merged which can originate wrong decisions as information used from diverse sources may be unreliable and undependable.
- Ratio analyses when calculated are just a guide of the performances which is not definite. This makes it challenging for investors to perform any investments causing blunders.
- These ratios are not usually suitable formats for offering and inferring ratios. This makes an addition to the circumstances that ratio studies are independent in nature.
- When taking under consideration, the ratio analysis is calculated with past documents along with the present which clearly gives an inaccurate image of the companies when comparing. This is because of changes in financial practices and accounting approaches. Other slight alterations can also develop in such a way that what exactly the financial position could be of the company.
- Because of many business diversifications it is not easy to compare between businesses. If errors occur in the financial statements, it consumes a lot of time in cleaning-up the faults.
- Accounting ratios mainly deal in numbers and as they are calculated they don't state issues like customer service, product quality and anything related to employee as these all play an essential role in the position of the financial statements.
- As businesses try to apply inventive accounting procedures to show enhanced financial statements which could be inappropriate and disingenuous for the users.
- While computing ratio analysis it can cause problems as it can neglect important aspects of a company's success. There are some primary features which do illustrate the performance and the position of the company which is omitted by ratio analysis.
- While carrying out ratio analysis a whole bunch of information is not used when calculating ratios which can present an unsophisticated opinion of the company as they may not provide a sufficient context or be equivalent across the company.
- Inflation can also bring a big change when calculating ratios as they can destroy the look of a financial statement. As well as it's difficult in some ratios to observe if the value achieved is good or bad for the company. To draw an overall conclusion is also tough for some companies as they generally operate only on ratios alone affecting the values obtained in the financial statements which are negative.

Welcome to Surface Mount Process
The hub for Surface Mount Technology
This website has been created primarily to be a technical resource for surface mount process engineers but also for anyone with an interest in surface mount technology (SMT). The scope of the website will be all aspects of the manufacturing process from solder paste printing, solder paste inspection, component placement, reflow soldering through to automatic optical inspection (AOI) and will include answers to the many frequently asked questions.
Introduction to Surface Mount Technology
Surface Mount Technology is an area of electronic assembly used to mount electronic components to the surface of the printed circuit board (PCB) as oppose to inserting components through holes as with conventional assembly. SMT was developed to reduce manufacturing costs and also to make more efficient use of PCB space. As a result of the introduction of surface mount technology it is now possible to build highly complex electronic circuits into smaller and smaller assemblies with good repeatability due to the higher level of automation.
What are SMD's?
Surface mount device or SMD is the term used for the electronic components used within the surface mount assembly process. There is a wide range of SMD component packages available on the market and come in many shapes and sizes - a selection can be seen below:-
Surface Mount Assembly Process
The surface mount assembly process starts during the design phase when the many different components are selected and the PCB is designed using a software package such as Orcad or Cadstar (others are available).
It is important to realise that the process starts at this stage as this is the best time to incorporate as many design features as possible that will make production straight forward and head-ache free. Quite often circuits are taken from the schematic design phase to PCB layout with the main considerations being the functionality, which of course is very important, but design for manufacture (DFM) should ideally be incorporated.
Once the PCB design has been finalised and components selected the next phase is to send the PCB data away to a PCB manufacturing company and components bought in the most suitable way to facilitate automation. The PCB panel design should be considered and specification created to ensure that the format that the PCB's are received is as expected and suitable for the machines to be used.
Components are available packaged in many different ways such as on reels, in tubes or in trays as can been seen below. Most are available on reels which is preferred but sometimes due to 'Minimum Order Quantities (MOQ's)' components are quite often supplied in tubes or in short strips of tape. Both of these packaging types can be used but do need appropriate feeder types. Components supplied loose in bags should be avoided if possible as can lead to hand placements or the need for special feeding plates.
Machine programming - Gerber / CAD to Centroid / Placement / XY file
Having received the PCB panels and components the next step is to setup the various machines used with the manufacturing process. Machines such as the placement machine and AOI (Automated Optical Inspection) will require a program to be created which is best generated from CAD data but quite often this isn't available. Gerber data is almost always available as this is the data required for the bare PCB to be manufactured. If Gerber data is the only data available then the creation of the centroid / placement / XY file can be very time consuming and so Surface Mount Process offer the service to generate this file.
Solder Paste Printing
The first machine to setup in the manufacturing process is the solder paste printer which is designed to apply solder paste using a stencil and squeegees to the appropriate pads on the PCB. This is the most widely used method for applying solder paste but jet printing is becoming more popular, especially in the sub-contract sector as there is no need for stencils and modifications are easier to make.
Keeping control of this process is critical as any printing defects, if undetected, will lead to defects further down the line. With assemblies becoming more complex the design of the stencil is key and care must be taken to ensure a repeatable and stable process.
Solder Paste Inspection (SPI)
Most solder paste printing machines have the option of including automatic inspection but, depending on the size of the PCB, this process can be time consuming and so a seperate machine can often be preferred. The inspection systems within solder paste printers use 2D technology whereas the dedicated SPI machines use 3D technology to enable a more thorough inspection including solder paste volume per pad and not just print area.
Component Placement
Once the printed PCB has been confirmed to have the correct amount of solder paste applied it moves into the next part of the manufacturing process which is component placement. Each component is picked from its packaging using either a vacuum or gripper nozzle, checked by the vision system and placed in the programed location at high speed.
There is a large variety of machines available for this process and it depends greatly on the business to what type of machine is selected. For example if the business is focused around large build quantities then the placement rate will be important however if the focus is small batch/high mix then flexibility will be more important.
Pre-Reflow Automated Optical Inspection (AOI)
Following the component placement process it is important to verify that no mistakes have been made and that all parts have been correctly placed before reflow soldering. The best way of doing this is by using an AOI machine to make checks such as component presence, type/value and polarity.
First Article Inspection (FAI)
One of the many challenges for sub-contract manufacturers is the verification of the first assembly to the customers information or first article inspection (FAI) as can be very time consuming. This is a very important step in the process as any errors, if undetected, can lead to high volumes of rework.
Reflow Soldering
Once all component placements have been checked the PCB assembly moves into the reflow soldering machine where all the electrical solder connections are formed between the components and PCB by heating the assembly to a sufficient temperature. This would appear to be one of the less complicated parts of the assembly processes but the correct reflow profile is key to ensure acceptable solder joints without damaging the parts or assembly due to excessive heat.
When using lead-free solder a carefully profiled assembly is even more important as the required reflow temperature can often be very close to many components maximum rated temperature.
Post-Reflow Automated Optical Inspection (AOI)
The last part of the surface mount assembly process is to again check that no mistakes have been made by using an AOI machine to check solder joint quality.
With the introduction of 3D technology this process has become more reliable as with 2D inspection there tended to be high levels of false calls due to interpreting a 2D image. 3D inspection has allowed more accurate measurements to be taken and provide a more stable inspection process.
One of the newest features on the inspection machines is that they can be networked together to allow instant feedback to the preceding machine to enable automatic adjustments to be made. For example the AOI machine can be connected to the placement machine so that component placement positions can be adjusted and the SPI machine can be connected to the printer to allow adjustments to be made to the alignment of PCB to stencil.
An Increase in Efficiency and Productivity
It's a shocking statistic to read that within the electronics industry many surface mount operations, particularly within the sub-contract manufacturing sector, run as low as 20% efficient.
There are many reasons that contribute to this figure but it fundamentally means that only 20% of the capital investment is being utilized. Financially speaking, this will lead to a higher cost of ownership and a slower return on investment. For the customer, it can cause longer lead times for their product and therefore the business will not be as competitive in the market place.
With production efficiencies at this level there will be many knock-on effects that will have an impact on the business such as larger batch sizes, more parts in stock, more assemblies in WIP (work in progress) and slower reaction times to customer change requirements.
With all this in mind there is a strong incentive to improve efficiency while maintaining quality.

General Information
Biological Significance | O-6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) is an enzyme that repairs O-6-methylguanine, a mutagenic DNA base damaged by endogenous and environmental alkylating agents and is involved in the cellular defense against the biological effects of O-6-methylguanine in DNA. MGMT repairs alkylated guanine in DNA by stoichiometrically transferring the alkyl group at the O-6 position to a cysteine residue in the enzyme. There are few reports that abnormal MGMT expression correlates with the prognosis in human solid cancers. Recombinant MGMT, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E. coli and was purified by conventional chromatography techniques. |

I can understand not wanting the code to shout. However, when you are working with special system variables. They are so compact and non-descriptive they can be problematic to identify and debug. Imagine looking at $/ and meaning to use $\, talk about subtle. English may have code that SHOUTS but it brings attention to itself with the upper-case syntax and is more descriptive than the built-in variable names. There are good reasons why TheDamian recommended its use in PBP. In reply to Re^4: Module Announcement: Perl-Critic-1.01
