Start with a 16 ounce portion of big fish.

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

I went there, and I ordered the eight ounce rib eye for 160 dollars.

Am I sitting down in a steakhouse to a 16 ounce portion of this?

An ounce of wit that is bought is worse a pound that is taught.

The gold buying policy raised the official gold price from 20.67 an ounce in October 1933 to 35.00 an ounce in January 1934, when the experiment was discontinued. By then, several hundred million dollars had been pumped into the banking system.

And this also happened to my girls as they began to see, and, we thought, maybe became an ounce more compassionate.

The cab stopped, and I pulled my body from it feeling each ounce of weight as I walked to the elevator.

And it's true that an ounce of prevention equals a pound of cure, but that's only if we know what to prevent.

You know that you can hold a 40 ounce bottle of rum and two bottles of coke in a wineskin? So what, right?

And instead of charging a dollar fifty for the eight ounce bottle, the way that French's and Gulden's did, they decided to charge four dollars.

Judging from the outcome of last month s meeting of the ECB s Governing Council, that ounce of prevention appears to be right around the corner for the euro zone economy.

Listen closely Marvin Minsky's arch, eclectic, charmingly offhand talk on health, overpopulation and the human mind is packed with subtlety wit, wisdom and just an ounce of wily, is he joking? advice.

NEW YORK Gold prices have been rising sharply, breaching the 1,000 barrier and in recent weeks rising towards 1,200 an ounce and above. Today s gold bugs argue that the price could top 2,000.

I discovered this bar on Manhattan's Lower East Side that hosted a weekly poetry open mic, and my bewildered, but supportive, parents took me to soak in every ounce of spoken word that I could.

There is no doubt that gold s heady rise to the peak, from around 350 per ounce in July 2003, had investors drooling. The price would rise today because everyone had become convinced that it would rise even further tomorrow.

I feel constrained to note here that even an ounce of failure on minor issues holds up the release of funds for major projects and programmes in third world countries, despite tons of reasons to go ahead with such projects.

If you want to know what technology is going to change the world, don't pay attention to 13 year old boys pay attention to young mothers, because they have got not an ounce of support for technology that doesn't materially make their lives better.

A new economic order was established after World War II, with the US as the anchor country. The Bretton Woods system linked the US dollar to gold at 35 per ounce, with other currencies linked to the dollar (though occasionally allowed to make adjustments).

It comes in a five ounce portion of tilapia breaded with Dijon mustard and crispy, broiled breadcrumbs and a steaming pile of pecan quinoa pilaf with crunchy, grilled broccoli so soft and sweet and charred and smoky on the outside with just a hint of chili flake.

Better a 50 basis point increase now thereby allowing the economic recovery to continue by keeping inflation in check than triple or quadruple that figure down the road. The old adage that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure applies with particular force to monetary policy.

VENICE The run up in gold prices in recent years from 800 per ounce in early 2009 to above 1,900 in the fall of 2011 had all the features of a bubble. And now, like all asset price surges that are divorced from the fundamentals of supply and demand, the gold bubble is deflating.

And, from the onset of the global financial crisis, the price of gold has often been portrayed as a barometer of global economic insecurity. So, does the collapse in gold prices from a peak of 1,900 per ounce in August 2011 to under 1,250 at the beginning of July 2013 represent a vote of confidence in the global economy?

For example, Stephen Harmston s oft cited 1998 study points to anecdotal evidence that an ounce of gold bought 350 loaves of bread in the time of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, who died in 562 BC. Ignoring the fact that bread in Babylon was probably healthier than today s highly refined product, the price of gold today is not so different, equal to perhaps 600 loaves of bread.

Under the gold standard, the dollar was convertible into gold at a fixed price of 20.67 an ounce. To stabilize the price level, the economist Irving Fisher had produced a plan for a compensated dollar, which would vary the dollar s gold value to offset rising or falling prices, in effect allowing the Fed to issue more or fewer dollars as dictated by business conditions.

The flaw in the system was that it underpinned global economic expansion for only as long as the US was willing to provide dollars by running up deficits the same deficits that would eventually undermine America s ability to maintain the 35 ounce gold price. In 1961, the US responded by creating the London Gold Pool, which obliged other countries to reimburse the US for half of its gold losses.
