A wire is a single, usually cylindrical, flexible strand or rod of metal. Wires are used to bear mechanical loads or electricity and telecommunications signals. Wire is commonly formed by drawing the metal through a hole in a die or draw plate. Wire gauges come in various standard sizes, as expressed in terms of a gauge number. The term wire is also used more loosely to refer to a bundle of such strands, as in 'multistranded wire', which is more correctly termed a wire rope in mechanics, or a cable in electricity.
Wire comes in solid core, stranded, or braided forms. Although usually circular in cross-section, wire can be made in square, hexagonal, flattened rectangular, or other cross-sections, either for decorative purposes, or for technical purposes such as high-efficiency voice coils in loudspeakers. Edge-woundcoil springs, such as the Slinky toy, are made of special flattened wire.
In antiquity, jewelry often contains, in the form of chains and applied decoration, large amounts of wire that is accurately made and which must have been produced by some efficient, if not technically advanced, means. In some cases, strips cut from metal sheet were made into wire by pulling them through perforations in stone beads. This causes the strips to fold round on themselves to form thin tubes. This strip drawing technique was in use in Egypt by the 2nd Dynasty. From the middle of the 2nd millennium BC most of the gold wires in jewellery are characterised by seam lines that follow a spiral path along the wire. Such twisted strips can be converted into solid round wires by rolling them between flat surfaces or the strip wire drawing method. The strip twist wire manufacturing method was superseded by drawing in the ancient Old World sometime between about the 8th and 10th centuries AD. There is some evidence for the use of drawing further East prior to this period.
Colin Newman (born 16 September 1954) is an English musician, record producer and record label owner. He is best known as the primary vocalist and songwriter for the post-punk band Wire.
Colin Newman was born in Salisbury, Wiltshire and moved to London when he was 21 after finishing art school. In 1976 Newman formed the band Wire which he served as main songwriter, singer and guitarist. At start the band was considered a part of London's Punk rock scene but later reached critical acclaim for their massive influence on Post-punk, New wave and Alternative rock. When the band temporarily split in 1980, Newman pursued a solo career. His first solo album, A-Z, was released in 1980 on the Beggar's Banquet record label. The album veered from extremely skewed pop to more mainstream numbers, such as "Order for Order", which was compared by some to Gary Numan. A track from the demos for this LP (but not included on the original vinyl release), "Not Me", was covered by This Mortal Coil on their It'll End in Tears LP; This Mortal Coil then covered the A-Z track "Alone" on their second album Filigree & Shadow. Newman's second LP, the entirely instrumental Provisionally Entitled The Singing Fish, in which all the tracks were titled for numbered fish, was released on the 4AD Records label in 1981. A third LP, Not To, which along with original compositions reworked a number of tracks originally written for Wire, was released in 1982 on 4AD.

The battle for our faith is bigger than games, bigger than world wars even. The devil searches out the points of weakness, the Achilles heel of our faith. We must be watchful to the devices that could trip and trap us and bring us down. (1 Corinthians 10:12-13; Ephesians 5:17) Message # 10787 Pastor Thomas Schaller Feb 01, 2015 - Sunday Evening
Let's see what's going on in the latest mini-LP from post-punk vets Wire. RIYL: Jack Nicholson, mean podcasts, social isolation, kimchi, bands that are almost 40 years old. Special thanks to Maria for microspectrovideography.
Today: [Deuteronomy Chapter Twenty-Three]: Be Circumspect Before the Battle. In this chapter God instructs the people to be contentious in the area of personal holiness when facing a spiritual battle. Many times we are turned back in battle and fail to see breakthrough because of allowances we afford ourselves that ultimately GRIEVE the Holy Ghost and cause our prayers to go unanswered.

Full story: http://saff.nfshost.com/broxtowe.htm "As Ray Wyre was paid as a consultant in the Broxtowe SRA case (the first claimed SRA case in the U.K. ) by Nottingham Social Services and used the Satanic indicators to brief the foster parents we interviewed him first. In our view he was extremely vague and evasive and could give no evidence to support his assertions beyond a few cases that we subsequently checked with negative results." All this is very pertinent. Ray wire was a key instigator of belief in SRA in Broxtowe though he kept a respectable distance from most of the sensational 'victim imposters' (like Jacquie Balodis and others) who were providing quotes for shocking headlines in the British media at the time. Occasionally Wyre would give one paragraph quotes within article...

Sherlock Holmes and his companion Dr. Watson investigate the case.
