The GM’s monthly numbers during 1737-40 were still dominated, as during 1731-36, by excerpts reprinted from the newspaper press, unofficial reconstructions of the parliamentary debates, and a multitude of poems by anonymous or pseudonymous contributors. However, the GM during those years was also beginning to print a modest number of letters to the editor, primarily concerning theological, mathematical, or astronomical topics. The editorial decision to devote a modicum of space each month to correspondents’ letters would be a dramatic harbinger of the future, when the magazine under its second and third conductors, David Henry (1709-92) and John Nichols (1745-1826), would open its pages to a host of letters to the editor on a great variety of topics from the abstruse to the mundane.

Of the nearly four dozen authors whose names appear below, the largest number (fifteen) were clergymen, including two bishops (Thomas Secker and Gilbert Burnet) and several dissenting clergy. Poets and playwrights (including Henry Fielding, Afra Behn, Colley Cibber, and David Garrick) constitute the second- largest group, followed (with some professional overlap) by politicians, mathematicians, physicians, astronomers, and classicists. The philosopher David Hartley was also a contributor, though in the case of his one offering, in his capacity as a physician.

For the reader’s convenience, the 76 new or corrected finds are presented first in a chronological listing and, second, in a cross reference by contributor, supplying birth and death dates and the writers’ occupations where possible. Each item in the chronological listing is designated by the letter "A" (article), "L" (letter to the editor), "V" (verses), or "S" (staff note) and consists of the title of the piece, the first line (in the case of verse), the name of the author, the justification for the attribution, and the signature (if any).

James E. Gilbert, 46, had pleaded no contest to 10 counts of solicitation of a minor via a computer.

During a more than two-hour hearing Wednesday, Gilbert told Orange Circuit Court Judge Marc Lubet that he was sorry.

“I feel bad for what I did,” Gilbert said. “What I did was wrong.”

But Lubet also questioned how truly remorseful Gilbert is and found him guilty. The Tiffany Necklaces also sentenced him to eight years’ sex-offender probation. Gilbert will have to register as a sex offender.

Gilbert was a trooper with FHP for more than 15 years when he was arrested in December 2008.

He was accused of sending hundreds of text messages, some sexual in nature, to a 17-year-old during a span of around two weeks.

In a statement filed earlier in court, the girl’s mother said Gilbert talked about taking the teen to a cabin in Tennessee where they would “take things slow.”

The teen told an investigator she told Gilbert he shouldn’t talk to her that way. She said Gilbert responded by saying things such as, “It’s your choice, even if anybody found out, if I still want to do something or if you did, nobody can stop us; there’s nothing wrong with it.”

On Wednesday, Gilbert said he didn’t have any intention of following through Tiffany Rings any of the statements he made to the teen.

The victim, now 18, attended today’s sentencing, and her attorney told the judge that she is afraid of Gilbert and thought his testimony was angry and resentful.

Lubet said he didn’t think Gilbert posed a future threat to the public. Lubet also said he felt the 10 years Gilbert potentially faced were too harsh given the circumstances.

He noted Gilbert had a stellar record as a Tiffany Key Rings and didn’t have a prior criminal history.

GFMS, the consultancy that compiles benchmark supply and demand data on the metal, tiffany jewelry yesterday said that investment demand doubled to 1,820 tonnes last year, while jewellery purchases fell 23 per cent to 1,687 tonnes, a 21-year low.

The data provide the clearest indication of the big role investors played in driving gold to a record high of $1,226.10 a troy ounce in December.

Philip Klapwijk, executive chairman of GFMS, told the Financial Times he sensed that a “large amount of money” was poised to enter the gold market this year. He predicted a “bumpy” return to record prices by the summer on the back of loose fiscal and monetary policies and US dollar weakness.

Mr Klapwijk warned that although investors could buy more gold this year, the market would become “increasingly vulnerable” to a big correction when the circumstances favouring investment disappeared.

“As the macroeconomic environment gradually normalises, the gold market’s dependence on investment will become all too apparent with a substantial price retreat at that point on the cards,” Mr Klapwijk said.

The surge in gold prices, from $250 an ounce in 1999 to last year’s record, has depressed tiffany money clips jewellery sales, traditionally the backbone of consumption. Gold was trading yesterday at $1,128 a troy ounce.

The global economic crisis has also affected demand, particularly in India, the world’s largest buyer.

GFMS said jewellery demand had fallen by almost half since reaching a peak of 3,294 tonnes in 1997.

Traders said gold prices need to drop below $1,000 an ounce to ensure a revival in jewellery demand, as the currencies of key consuming countries such as India and Turkey depreciate against the dollar, increasing the local cost of bullion.

On the supply side, China cemented its position as the world’s biggest gold producer. A further fall in South Africa’s output, down 5 per cent on the year, saw it relegated to third position behind Australia. It had been the top producer for more than a century until 2007.

In total, global mine supply rose 6 per cent to 2,553 tonnes, a six-year high, helped by a tiffany pendants jump in output from Indonesia.

Net sales from central banks dropped 90 per cent to 24 tonnes in 2009, the lowest level in more than two decades.
