Tests are described comparing the sensitivity of the Erickson dipole feeds with the new strut-straddling Modified J-Pole (MJP) feeds using the new VLA Lowband receivers in the 54-86 MHz window. These tests show that the sensitivity of the MJP feeds for the “B” mounting position is comparable to the Erickson dipoles. For the “C” mounting position the MJP sensitivity is a factor of two worse than...

Throughout this congress we have heard many moving testimonies. On Thursday the stories highlighted the presence of Jesus among the peoples of Asia, especially among the poor and marginalised. On Friday stories witnessed to Jesus amidst the great religions of Asia. Today testimonies have focused upon the cultures of Asia. In day-to-day life we do not neatly separate these three aspects. As the ...

This study analyzes 39 Atlantic and seven Pacific benthic δC records to characterize obliquity and precession responses in Atlantic overturning since 3 Ma. Regional benthic δC stacks are also analyzed. A major transition in orbital responses is observed at 1.5–1.6 Ma coincident with the first glacial shoaling of Northern Component Water. Since ∼1.5 Ma, the phases of Atlantic benthic δC records ...
