Book Review - Own the Wind (Chaos, #1) by Kristen Ashley
Labels: Book Review, Chaos Series, Kristen Ashley · Posted by Unknown at 7:04 PM
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
10 Freaking Stars KA has done it again . I Freaking LOVED this book ...
Once again KA has done it with another book . I had no doubt in my mind that this book would ROCK , but I will say it ROCKED way more than I thought it would . This book was ABSO-LUTELY-FAN-FLIPPIN-TASTIC ….
I am pretty sure I have 85% of the book highlighted. I mean she really laid down the smack down with this one and the verbal back and forth was AMAZINGBALLS … in true biker style .
I will say this if you have not read the Dream Man series , you should before you read this one , because this one branches off of that series and in order to get the full effect and get all squishy and lovey , from the Cameo's you need to read that series , so when the men and woman from the Dream Series make appearances you can truly appreciate the book fully.
Tabby is the daughter of the Motorcycle club Own Tack, and Shy is a Brother in that club. As anyone who knows anything about biker clubs, daughter's are off limits . Shy and Tabby have always been friends , but what Shy does not know is that Tabby has had a crush on him for a longtime , and what Tabby does not know is that Shy has been crushing on her for the last 4 yrs . He still had the taste of her on his tongue from one kiss ( total swoon moment there )
"I had a taste of you four years ago that I could never get off my tongue. Now, I've tasted more of you with more than just my mouth and I know I wanna keep it in a way I don't want to think of it bein' done. Not in a few weeks. Not in a few months. Maybe not ever"
Parker "Shy" Cage , just his name is amazing in itself, but add to that biker attitude , a little romance , and a whole lotta looking out for and protecting and he is AMAZINGBALLS ….
Shy see's Tabby going down a road she should not be going and he decides to step in and try to guide her away from her path that she is on. What he did not do was think before he decided to do what he did and it did not go so well for him . Tabby in turn being hurt deeply by him , stayed clear of him as much as she could .
When tragedy strikes Tabby, Shy steps in to help her heal and becomes her friend and shoulder to lean on . he helps her to heal and become herself again. ( no no one major dies )
"You need a safe place to just forget shit and escape, I'll give it to you. Tonight. Tomorrow. Next week. Next month. That safe place is me, Tabby.""
They go through some ups and downs and ins and outs, but once they become a couple it is Amazing from then on out with them together. Shy owned up to his screw –ups apologized and they moved on , It was awesome how well these two are fit for each other .
I LOVED this story , it has so much hotness to it, protectiveness , Love, & emotions. The Epilogue was there , although not as long as what KA usually does , but I was very happy with the end of this book and I know we will hear from Shy and Tabby in the rest of this series . I can not wait to see where it goes with Hop and Lanie in the next book .
These are some more of the quotes I LOVED in this book , but not all of them or My whole book would be a review lol .
"Promise me right now, my d*** still inside you, you naked on top of me in my bed, sharing what we just shared, us having a taste of what it's like apart and knowin' were better together, you won't leave me.... You'll stick with me until there's nothing to stick to, if that ever happens.""
"May feel like you're fallin', Tabby, but remember, I'm at the bottom ready to catch you."
" I have never, not once, not in my life, made love to any woman. Not once. Not until what I just did with you ."
"Shy, she's yours... Control your woman," High demanded. "Get her a** out."
My eyes went to Shy to see him looking at High, and he wasn't looking pissed.
He was looking reflective.
Then he said, "Tab and I don't play it that way. You wanna order your old lady around, do what you do, not for me to say. I asked her to go, she didn't go. Not gonna make her. But you try, you'll deal with me.""
"I dreamed a dream, Shy."
"You'll dream more dreams, baby."
"I'll never dream," she whispered, her voice lost, tragic. "We'll get you to a dream, honey," he promised, pulling her closer.
" I dreamed a dream when I was sixteen and here I am, standing with my dream, feeling it come real.'

Husqvarna Viking Emerald 122
Best Embroidery Machine
Expert Review
For old school embroidery and decorative stitches at their best, the Husqvarna Viking Emerald 122 is the retro solution to modern embroidery stitching. Although it only comes with 70 built-in stitches, there's no easier to use machine on this list.
The only automatic feature on this machine is the needle threader and after that, it's all manual. You simply dial in the stitch you want, adjust the width and length, and start sewing. Nothing complicated here and it's likely perfect for many of the sewing tasks you'll be doing.
This embroidery machine comes with a reference guide to help you select the right stitch for any project along with a one-step buttonhole maker. It comes with a one year full service warranty with optional warranty plans also available.

Looking for a new job now because it's time to leave my existing one. Surprisingly there a lot of job openings right now, even at this time close to Christmas and year end. I can't wait to give notice. I'm about to be in a new environment meeting new people and working on new projects. I'll miss some people. Once I stopped believing in my team, that was it for me.

Silver rebounds on industrial offtake, gold moves down
Mumbai: Silver prices rebounded moderately at the bullion market here today on speculative buying amid renewed industrial offtake. On the other hand, gold slipped further on lack of local buying interest on the expectation of further correction at higher levels.
Standard gold of 99.5 per cent purity moved down by Rs 45 to end at Rs 28,915 per 10 grams from Friday`s close of Rs 28,960. Pure gold of 99.9 per cent purity also lost by a similar margin to close at Rs 29,040 per 10 grams from Rs 29,085 previously.
However, silver ready (.999 fineness) recouped by Rs 270 to conclude at Rs 56,250 per kg from Rs 55,980 yesterday. In New York, the precious metals recovered modestly on lower dollar as European leaders failed to gather unanimous consensus for a new fiscal treaty.
Gold for February delivery gained USD 3.40 to USD 1,716.80 an ounce on the Comex division of the NYMEX late on Friday. March Silver contract added 71 cents to USD 32.25 an ounce.

Do you know what uranium is? Our president knows what uranium is. According to his February 16th press conference, it's "this thing called nuclear weapons and other things like lots of things are done with uranium including some bad things." So…yeah. He's got a firm grasp on ol' atomic number 92.
Now you can show your support of uranium awareness with our stupendous "I Know What Uranium Is!" t-shirt. Soft, light, and made from 100% uranium*, this stylish tee will let everyone know that you, like our esteemed president, know how many things can be done with uranium. "Just how many?" your friends will ask. "Lots," you'll respond. "Lots of things including some bad things."
*Like our Commander-in-Chief, we here at T-Shirts for People sometimes confuse 100% ringspun cotton (or a 90% ringspun cotton/10% poly blend in our heather colors) for weakly radioactive chemical elements with unstable isotopes. So there's a bigly chance this t-shirt is not, in fact, made from uranium. Sorry for any mix-up.

Jerry Burnes Managing Editor (Mesabi Daily News)
HOYT LAKES — PolyMet took another step forward Wednesday by submitting its air quality permit application to the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency.
The permit is one of several major applications for the company's NorthMet copper/nickel/precious metals mine near Hoyt Lakes.
"As with our water permit applications, we took great care to ensure our air permit application provides full details of how we will meet air quality standards and protect the environment," said Jon Cherry, PolyMet president and CEO, in a statement.
PolyMet's filing comes a day after an environmentalist group from Duluth asked the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources to consider an administrative law judge to oversee independent hearings on its permit to mine application.
The request was called a stall tactic by mining supporters.
The DNR said in a statement that it is too early for the state to declare a contested case since PolyMet hasn't submitted a permit.
Cherry said the mining permit is the last major hurdle, and he expects it will be submitted in the coming weeks.
Today's air quality permit covers the type and volume of emissions from the project, methods to control and monitor those emissions and the rules and regulations applying to the operation.
PolyMet was cleared for permits in March after nearly 10 years of review that saw the company spend more than $90 million.
DNR Commissioner Tom Landwehr called the process "deliberative and thorough" at the time.
PolyMet is expected to cost $650 million to build and would create 300 jobs, with several more construction and spin-off jobs expected.
EMO, Ontario — Just 40 miles northwest of International Falls, amid hayfields and swampland and forest that look much like northern Minnesota, New Gold Inc. is digging an all-new gold mine.
Drill rigs are boring deep into rock. Giant shovels have already dug a hole nearly mile long and quarter-mile wide. Beefy 240-ton haul trucks are carrying thick clay and overburden away to expose veins of gold-bearing rock. A massive crushing and processing plant is under construction nearby.
The open pit operation, which will later include underground mining as well, is expected to start producing, by mid-2017, an estimated 325,000 ounces of gold and 480,000 ounces of silver each year.
For those keeping score at home, the so-called Rainy River mine would gross more than $430 million each year at current gold and silver prices. The mine is expected to produce for 15 years or more.
But Toronto-based New Gold isn't the only one that has found gold in the region, and geologists note that the same Superior Province rock formation that supports successful gold mines across Quebec and Ontario runs right across the Minnesota border and into the northern counties of the state.
"Two-billion-year-old rock doesn't care about 200-year-old political boundaries. It's the same formation here," said Don Elsenheimer, geologist for the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources.
Combine an historically solid price, with gold now above $1,300 per ounce, add some pent-up demand after several years of little or no prospecting when gold prices were down, then throw in increased evidence that more gold lies below Minnesota fields and forests — and the region is suddenly a hotbed of gold interest.
Gold prices launched from $400 per ounce in 2004 to $1,900 in 2011 before settling in the $1,300 range recently. New Gold says it can make money at the new Rainy River mine at less than half the current price.
"With prices where they are, there are good margins for gold right now for most companies. Couple that with some pretty substantial findings and that's why you are seeing gold interest in northern Minnesota and that's why they are building a mine just across the border," said Rick Sandri, president of Minneapolis-based Vermillion Gold.
As long as gold remains above $1,200 per ounce, Sandri said, Minnesota will continue to draw interest and exploration.
In addition to New Gold's Rainy River project:
Big investment
That there's gold under the Northland's forests and swamps isn't geologically questioned. The questions until now have always been how much, and is it worth it to start digging?
The answer to the first question is, apparently, lots. New Gold is quickly answering the second with their $900 million project employing nearly 400 workers when open pit operations start next year and as many as 600 when underground operations begin a few years from now.
Exploration at the site started as early as 1967. And even though there is no gold-bearing rock formation sticking out of the ground in this area, Canadian government geologists in the 1990s found gold grains in the soil in the area with strong indication they were from nearby. Rough gold grains indicate they came from nearby underground deposits. Smooth grains indicate they were scraped by glaciers and could be from gold deposits that are hundreds of miles away.
"The word we like to use is gnarly," Sandri said. "And we've been finding those gnarly grains. It's not a guarantee. But it's becoming more accepted as a very good indicator" that mineable gold lies below.
It wasn't until June 2005, when Rainy River Resources acquired rights to the area, that exploration honed in on the current mine site. New Gold acquired the Rainy River project in the fall of 2013. According to company reports, some 1,435 holes totaling more than 2 million feet of rock sample have been punched into the property since prospecting started in the '60s.
The Rainy River project received its environmental approval in early 2015 from the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency and the Ontario Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change.
Construction started in earnest last year.
A mid-sized player in the global gold market, New Gold currently has four operating mines — the New Afton copper-gold mine in British Columbia, the Mesquite gold mine in California, the Peak gold-copper mine in Australia and the Cerro San Pedro gold-silver mine in Mexico.
At Rainy River, the main pit will be about a mile long and about that wide and will step down over 25 benches to more than 650 feet deep. The company will use 22 big haul trucks to move the ore out of the mine to the new processing plant a quarter-mile away.
The operations, now being scraped and dug and formed out of what had been undeveloped land, look like a smaller version of a Minnesota taconite iron ore operation. Drill rigs and explosives will rip the ore off the mine wall. Giant shovels will fill haul trucks which will take the raw product a to a primary crusher. A series of crushers will pulverize the ore.
From then on the process is different, with a chemical process — using hydrogen cyanide — used to pull the valuable gold and silver away from the waste rock. There's no heating or pelletizing of the finished product.
The gold will leave the processing plant in bars, in armored cars, likely headed for a Canadian mint to be further refined for purity.
Waste rock will go to stockpiles or slurried to a huge tailings basin impoundment, much the way Iron Range operations work.
New jobs, new life
The Rainy River site was touted, much like northern Minnesota is marketed, as an easy-access, mining-friendly location free from political tumult and social unrest. The site also has easy access to electricity, highways and to nearby Fort Frances, a city of 10,000 people that has an available workforce that was hard hit by the downsizing of the region's forest products industry.
The New Gold mine is offering jobs for many of the former paper mill workers, truckers and loggers who have lost their jobs over the past decade, local business owners said.
Emo, a half-hour west of Fort Frances, is the closest developed area to the mine, with 1,300 residents, grocery and hardware stores, gas stations, schools and homes for sale and rent.
"There were 1,000 people in the (Fort Frances) paper mill when I was in high school. They had 250 people in there when it closed" in 2012, said Dave Goodman, owner of an ATV and snowmobile shop in Emo. "A lot of those people had to go up to Alberta (oil fields) or Red Lake (Ontario gold mines) to get jobs. Now they have a chance to come and work at home again and still have a good job."
There have been promises of a gold mine opening here for nearly 20 years, Goodman noted. More than 15 years ago developers built a new subdivision in Emo. Now, it's starting to fill up. Another subdivision opened recently. Local construction companies are expanding, hired by New Gold to build roads and water diversions at the mine site. Stores are busy again with New Gold and its employees buying supplies. The city more than doubled the size of its sewage treatment plant to be ready for growth.
Housing is so tight that Goodman purchased a home in Emo so a new mechanic technician had a place to live.
"I wouldn't say it's a boom town. There's isn't a lot of new businesses going up. But you can tell there's more business. There's more optimism. People are expanding. People are buying," Goodman said. "I think the fact we've seen this out there for 15, 20 years, has helped give people time."
But Goodman also has a warning for any entrepreneurs anywhere a new mine is first proposed.
"Don't go build a brand-new motel when they first start talking about it because you'll be redecorating the rooms before the mine actually opens," he said.
Indeed, it took more than 10 years for the Rainy River project to get through the planning and environmental review stages — much like the PolyMet copper mine proposed for northern Minnesota.
"That's just they way it goes with mining projects in this day and age. It's a very complicated process. We underwent the most stringent environmental review of any mine in Canadian history," said Grant Goddard, general manager in charge of opening the New Gold mine.
Goddard said the project has gone well, with the focus now on expanding from the current 200 employees to more than 400 by year's end.
The company is holding job fairs across the Rainy River region this summer. So far, more than 75 percent of employees are local, and more than 35 percent of the new workforce are from local Ojibwe bands.
New Gold officials say they don't necessarily need workers with mining experience. Instead, they are looking for people "with shared values" that the company espouses.
"We can teach people to operate machinery, if they have the right values," said Goddard, who has 37 years in the mining industry in several countries. "That's why I came on with New Gold. They do things differently. They take the long approach."
Little opposition, smaller footprint
The New Gold mine is close to the Pinewood River, which drains into the Rainy River that runs along the Minnesota-Ontario border before running into Lake of the Woods, with the water continuing north to Hudson Bay.
The New Gold project saw little formal opposition, unlike proposed Minnesota copper mines. While some Ojibwe elders expressed concerns over mine runoff and potential water pollution, there's been little public criticism. Far from any major Canadian population base, New Gold found open arms near Emo.
"Nobody around here would say no to these jobs," Goodman said. "They (New Gold) have been a very good company to work with. They've become part of the community."
New Gold is using electric-powered haul trucks to reduce noise. They are working to keep lighting minimized and pointed down to avoid illuminating the rural night sky. And they are holding regular meetings with neighbors to get input on issues such as construction trucks on local roads.
The project underwent years of environmental review by both Canadian and Ontario agencies, with permitting issues similar to Minnesota mines. Like Minnesota, much of the focus has been on water quality. New Gold has spent millions of dollars to dam water that previously flowed through the site and move it around the mine site so it doesn't mingle with water used in the mining process.
Moreover, most of the gold is not locked inside high-sulfur rock, Goddard and geologists note, so there's less concern about sulfide-tained runoff.
"If we run into acid-generating rock we set that aside, on a lined disposal area. But for the most part, that's not an issue here," Goddard said. "We have great neutralizing capacity" in the rock in the area of the mine that mitigates any acidity.
The DNR's Elsenheimer agreed that extracting gold, in general, has less potential to spur water problems.
"Gold is a different animal," he said. "It's not that there aren't concerns with gold mining. … But gold is a native element mineral. When you find a gold deposit it's going to be in a rock that has far less sulfur content than a deposit of copper and nickel…. Copper and nickel are bound in sulfide minerals."
Vermillion Gold's Sandri said gold mines are generally smaller than iron ore or copper mines, handling less rock and producing less waste material.
"Gold mines have a much smaller footprint. You're are going after a much smaller pocket" of valuable material, Sandri said. "In gold, we talk in terms of grams and ounces, not tons."
At an iron ore mine, shovels have to dig up about 300 tons of rock to get 100 tons of good taconite. In a gold mining operation, you need to dig about a ton of rock just to find one gram of gold, Sandri said. There are 31 grams in each ounce.
"But you have to realize that, while we are talking very small volumes, it's very valuable," Sandri said. "One gram of gold right now is worth about the same as one ton of finished taconite, so it doesn't take a lot to make it pay."
"That," he added, "is why we're looking for it so hard right now."
Golden fact
The American Museum of Natural History reports that gold is so rare, even though it's been mined by people for 6,000 years, that all of the gold ever produced by humans, 152,000 tons, would fit in a cube measuring just 66 by 66 feet. In comparison, each year 907 million metric tons of iron are produced worldwide, or 6,000 times the total gold produced throughout history.
The rally at Whiteside Park in Ely Tuesday had the feel of a summer festival.
The U.S. Forest Service listening session about an hour later in the Ely High School auditorium was much more tense.
The issue of copper/nickel/precious metal mining will do that.
The pro-Twin Metals rally at Whiteside Park attracted about 350 supporters who then walked in unity to the high school a few blocks away.
The listening session drew a crowd of 800-850, with overwhelming support for federal leases to be renewed for continued Twin Metals exploration near Ely and Babbitt.
The 5 to 7:30 p.m. hearing in the Ely High School auditorium drew a spirited group of supporters and opponents, who offered sharply contrasting views on a possible nonferrous mine.
Testimony at the Forest Service gathering only layered on top of already strong conflicting views that have been presented repeatedly at meetings, including a session a week ago in Duluth.
But Tuesday's session in Ely was much more feisty than the Duluth event. The applause from both sides, but especially by Twin Metals backers, was sharp and with passion.
Those supporting renewal of the leases did not shy from voicing their disagreement when opponents were trying to make points ranging from this is a national, not local issue, to everything is just fine with Ely's economy, despite the shuttered storefronts on the city's main drag.
And when persistent mining critic Bob Tammen of Soudan took the microphone for a second three-minute stint — he first spoke when another person was picked by random drawing and then ceded the time to Tammen — a Twin Metals supporter stood up across the room and yelled, "Sit down."
In response, a Forest Service official called for civility. That was not met well. "Follow the process," yelled Twin Metals supporters, referring to a rule calling for speakers only getting one chance at the microphone.
But the Forest Service lost control of the session from the outset with a process that had all names put into a single drawing rather than being separated by pro-and-con on the issue and then alternately called upon. The result was the first six or so speakers representing anti-Twin Metals views and only one in support of renewing the leases.
Supporters argue the process needs to move ahead, with science and regulatory scrutiny to decide whether a copper/nickel project can coexist with the environment.
They say jobs, which are projected by Twin Metals to be substantial and in the thousands, should be an important part of the process.
But opponents say the water quality and Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness experience will be forever damaged.
The mineral exploration and a future mining project would be done outside the protected Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness in territory that was agreed to by all parties previously to allow mining, logging and tourism activities.
However, opponents, including DFL Gov. Mark Dayton, say a Twin Metals project in that watershed area poses the same threat as if it was in the BWCAW.
The Forest Service has mimicked that view of opponents in advance of the hearings, indicating a penchant to not approve the extension of the federal leases. The Forest Service said it was "deeply concerned" about what a Twin Metals project might do to the BWCAW.
Forest Service official Kathleen Ackinson was asked repeatedly by the Mesabi Daily News prior to the hearing why the agency decided to use the language of Twin Metals opponents regarding the project before a decision was made on a renewal of the federal leases. She repeatedly said, "We wanted to be transparent on our concerns."
She was then asked why the Forest Service didn't say it was also concerned about the economy of the region and how Twin Metals would provide thousands of jobs. She said again, "We wanted to be transparent in our concerns," she said.
Ackinson was then asked if the Forest Service had considered that a lot of people would view that as a pre-determined decision on the issue.
"We wanted to be transparent on our concerns," was the robotic answer.
However, Democratic 8th District U.S. Rep. Rick Nolan has strongly endorsed a renewal of the leases.
"Having met with all the involved agencies and parties, and spoken with Department of Agriculture Under Secretary Robert Bonnie, I know renewing these leases is the sensible and correct thing to do," Nolan said in a letter Monday to the Forest Service. "We should never be afraid of exploration and discovery, or using science and facts to dictate important decisions. That is what these initial stages of the proposed Twin Metals initiative are all about."
A Forest Service official last week said it has no timeline for its recommendation on the leases.

Twin Metals Minnesota is proud to be pursuing the development and operation of a future environmentally responsible underground copper-nickel mining project in Northeastern Minnesota. The Twin Metals project, and similar projects in the region, offer generations of Minnesotans the promise of thousands of good-paying jobs, billions of dollars in local investment, and billions more in revenue to Minnesota schools through the state School Trust Fund. Minnesota's vast copper and nickel resources are also critical to the nation's economy and security, supporting the infrastructure, manufacturing, technology and green-energy sectors.
The Twin Metals project is located in an area of the Superior National Forest where mining is both allowed and encouraged under state and federal law. Twin Metals is in the early stages of project development, with a target of 2018 for proposing project details to state and federal agencies for environmental review. Twin Metals has invested approximately $350 million to date, supporting hundreds of local jobs in the construction, drilling, engineering, geology, environmental and mineral-sciences fields.
Unfortunately, the economic promise of the Twin Metals project and the future of mining in the region are now threatened by arbitrary actions of the U.S. Forest Service. With all that is at stake for the region, the state and the nation, Minnesotans should expect — and demand — better of our federal government.
Twin Metals is seeking approval from the U.S. Bureau of Land Management for renewal of two federal mineral leases that are significant components of the future Twin Metals project. However, last month, the Forest Service publicly announced its intention to block the lease renewals — and to block all future mining opportunities in the Rainy River Basin.
The Forest Service justified its position by citing hypothetical fears about mining in the region rather than relying on science, the regulatory process or its own history of mining support. The Forest Service's action would be devastating to the region's economic future.
Twin Metals' federal leases were first issued by the Bureau of Land Management in 1966. The leases have been twice renewed (1989 and 2004), both times without controversy and with the endorsement of the Forest Service. In both renewals, the Forest Service found that the leases posed no environmental threats. In 2004, for example, the Forest Service stated, "The Forest Service has no objection to the renewal. … It has been determined that (the leases) are sufficient to protect the resources of the United States."
Further, the leases are supported by the Forest Service's own 2004 Superior National Forest Land Management Plan, which identified mining within the forest as a "desired condition." The plan states, "Exploration and development of mineral and mineral resources is allowed on National Forest System land, except for (federally) owned minerals in designated wilderness (the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness) and the Mining Protection Area." The Twin Metals leases fall outside of the Boundary Waters and the Mining Protection Area, and thus are allowed. Mining activity is encouraged.
The hypothetical environmental issues raised by the Forest Service should be studied as directed by federal law through a multi-agency, science-based Environmental Impact Statement, or EIS, after Twin Metals' project has been proposed. The federal mineral leasing process is neither the appropriate nor most effective process to assess the potential environmental impacts of a yet-to-be-proposed project.
Twin Metals is fully committed to protecting Minnesota's wilderness, natural environment and recreational resources. When Twin Metals submits a project to state and federal agencies, the rigorous formal environmental review process will begin. Multiple government agencies, local communities and interested citizens will be integral parts of that process. The U.S. Forest Service should not pre-empt the opportunity for expert agencies and affected citizens to participate in the review process by attempting to unilaterally block the Twin Metals project before it is proposed.
Twin Metals is grateful for the support it has received from citizens, elected officials, businesses, labor and communities across Minnesota. We urge all supporters of mining in Northeastern Minnesota to contact the Forest Service and express opposition to the agency's unwarranted proposed actions.

Bill Hanna Executive Editor. Updated July 11, 2016
ST. PAUL — PolyMet Mining has submitted the first four applications for its copper/nickel/precious metals project near Hoyt Lakes and Babbitt to the Department of Natural Resources.
The company also announced on Monday that it has repaid a $5.1 million loan, including interest, to the Iron Range Resources & Rehabilitation Board.
The applications are for water-related permits required for construction and operation of the PolyMet project to be located in the footprint of the former LTV Mining Co. site.
"Formal submission of water-related permit applications is another important milestone for PolyMet and the NorthMet Project," said PolyMet President and CEO Jon Cherry.
"We recognize that water is one of Minnesota's most valuable resources and we have taken extra time and effort to ensure that our permit applications detail the ways in which we will protect this resource and meet the various regulatory standards required for Minnesota's first copper-nickel mine."
He added, "we expect to submit air-related and Permit to Mine applications in the coming weeks."
The permit applications submitted Monday include:
• Water quality permit — the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System/State Disposal System (NPDES/SDS) permit establishes the terms and conditions that must be met, including monitoring, when a facility discharges to surface or groundwater of the state.
• Water use permit — the water appropriation permit is needed for withdrawing or using water from a surface or groundwater source for the project.
• Dam safety permits — the permits establish the design, construction, and operating parameters to ensure long-term safe and stable operations of facilities with water impoundments, such as the tailings basin.
Following the process laid out in the April 19 pre-application public meeting in Aurora, permit applications will be posted on www.mn.gov/polymet. The website also provides information about the permitting process for the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency and the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources.
"We have been deliberate in preparing our formal permit applications to ensure they are complete and align with the Final Environmental Impact Statement so that the agencies can process their reviews as efficiently and rigorously as possible," Cherry said.
The IRRRB loan was related to purchases of high-quality forest lands that will be exchanged for surface land above and around the NorthMet mineral rights.
The lands to be exchanged are now unencumbered, which will facilitate the exchange once the U.S. Forest Service issues its Final Record of Decision (ROD), according to PolyMet officials. The draft ROD was issued in November 2015 indicating the exchange was in the public interest.
"Repaying the IRRRB loan in full is an example of PolyMet's commitment to the local community, the state, the environment, and our investors," Cherry said. "We are sincerely grateful for the continued encouragement and support we get from Iron Rangers, the Range delegation, and business and labor communities statewide."
The project is expected to require approximately 2 million hours of construction labor, creating 360 long-term jobs, and hundreds more spin-off positions.
At a time when politicians and business leaders are advocating to "make America great again," certain federal agencies are missing the simplest ways to do so. Agencies like the U.S. Forest Service are hampering domestic investment by ignoring their own established regulatory processes in an effort to shut down access to some of our most valuable domestic resources: minerals.
Citing potential environmental concerns, the Forest Service recently announced its intention to block the renewal of federal mineral leases held by Twin Metals Minnesota within the Duluth Complex of Northeastern Minnesota, one of the largest undeveloped mineral deposits in the world. Even worse, the agency also would halt exploration and development of all potential future mining opportunities in the region's Rainy River Watershed.
Bad enough that the Forest Service would foreclose economic benefits both to the region and the nation. More troublesome, however, is that the agency is prejudging a project that has yet to be proposed. Instead of waiting for mine plans to be submitted for review under the long-established National Environmental Policy Act, the Forest Service is foreclosing that process by prematurely and arbitrarily refusing to renew the mineral leases.
Any future mineral development of the leases could not occur without the separate and thorough environmental review under the National Environmental Policy Act and the Minnesota Environmental Policy Act.
Twin Metals, much like all modern mining operations, is committed to a rigorous environmental review process that takes into consideration both the concerns of state and federal agencies and the members of the community in which the mine operates.
Twin Metals has the legal right to submit its mine plan for consideration and to have its project fully considered without the U.S. Forest Service shortchanging the National Environmental Policy Act process. By ignoring these legal obligations under current law, the Forest Service is potentially setting a chilling precedent for future mining projects — projects such as Twin Metals that could bring economic vitality to a long-stagnant economy.
Minerals mining offers the state a unique economic opportunity. Minnesota is home to world-class mineral reserves, including deposits of copper, nickel, platinum, palladium, gold and silver, the very minerals needed to manufacture personal electronics, automobiles, life-saving medical equipment and national security technologies. According to studies conducted by the University of Minnesota Duluth, the Twin Metals project and similar future potential projects will generate thousands of construction and permanent mining jobs, thousands of direct spin-off jobs and billions of dollars in investment in the region. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that the average annual wage for a Minnesota mining job is $83,359, or more than $30,000 above the all-industries average. Plus, the project will generate significant tax and royalty revenue for state and local governments as well as local school districts.
In the long term, the responsible development of domestic mineral and metals reserves will be a boon for both the state economy and the national economy. It will strengthen and secure supply chains and ensure steady growth in the manufacturing industry while providing high-wage jobs to hardworking Minnesotans.
But that coveted opportunity could be thwarted by the U.S. Forest Service decision to deny the renewal of valid and legitimate leases that have demonstrated valuable discovery, that have generated substantial royalties for the U.S. government, and that have been in existence for nearly five decades.
Before the Forest Service denies these mineral leases, it should think twice about pursuing policies that negatively affect both Minnesota and the U.S.
Actions like this explain why the U.S. is no longer creating high-wage jobs and why, as recently as the 1990s, our nation attracted 20 percent of worldwide mineral exploration dollars but now only attracts about 7 percent. It is past time to end this decline and instead encourage the responsible use of our mineral wealth on the Iron Range for the benefit of all Americans.
Range Leaders Push Forest Service to Move Twin Metals Hearing
They stood together, representing business, the trades, cities, counties, and legislative districts. And the leaders on the Range want the U.S. Forest Service to know, they are not happy about the agency's stance on the Twin Metals project.
Trading is something which can't be done just by anyone, it requires skill and intense knowledge, you can find the link for full article about trading here and learn all about trading.
"They've changed the rules, and to add insult to injury, they're holding a public hearing in Duluth. Which is not convenient and not accessible to the majority of Iron Range residents who live here, and will be directly impacted if the mine comes to fruition," said Steve Giorgi, executive director of RAMS.
The U.S. Forest Service sent a statement out earlier this month, saying the agency "is deeply concerned by the location of the leases within the same watershed as the BWCAW…"
That's why they are holding a public hearing to get input on the renewal of the leases.
Former lawmaker and current St. Louis County Commissioner Tom Rukavina said, "I'm deeply concerned that these bureaucrats, with no election certificates, can put out such a biased press release."
Congressman Rick Nolan has been outspoken and critical of the Forest Service since the statement was issued. He and Senators Al Franken and Amy Klobuchar have sent a letter to the agency, requesting a public listening session on the Iron Range.
"This isn't about the mine. It's about exploration. And we should never be afraid of science and discovery," Nolan said.
Ely's mayor Chuck Novak said he lives and breathes this mining vs. environmental group each day. They have a large stake in the future of Twin Metals, since that's near where the project is proposed.
The public hearing is Wednesday, July 13th, at 4:30pm at the DECC in Duluth.
AngloGold Ashanti Minnesota has notified the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources that it is starting basic surface exploration across 33 state mineral-lease sites in Koochiching County.
The exploration will occur in far southeastern Koochiching County, about 20 miles west of Cook.
The company — which has leased rights to the minerals from the state — will operate mostly on lands where the state owns the mineral and surface rights, such as state forests, and will conduct geological mapping, including examining bedrock outcrops, collecting samples and conducting geophysical surveys.
AngloGold's exploration plan is limited to basic tools such as a hammer and chisel, hand shovels, hand augers or portable hand-held power tools such as a posthole digger to collect samples. The company also plans to use sensors to collect magnetic data.
Some of the state-owned mineral-rights areas the company has leased the rights for are under private and county property where the company must first get permission to access the land.
AngloGold Ashanti is based in Johannesburg and has a North American office in Centennial, Colo. It is the third-largest gold mining company in the world with 17 operating mines in nine countries, according to the company's website. The company also has several exploration programs in both established and new gold-producing areas.
Minnesota's Executive Council approved leasing mineral rights under 11,628 acres in Koochiching County to AngloGold Ashanti in March. In exchange for small annual lease payments, the winning bidder for each tract gets exclusive rights to explore on the land for up to 50 years, as long as they keep paying and keep looking. If mining ever occurs, the companies must also pay royalty fees to the state.
There has never been an economically successful gold mine in Minnesota. But interest in possible gold mining in the state has warmed up in recent years. The DNR over the past year has released two reports on high numbers of tiny gold grains found on the ground in areas near Tower, sometimes an indication of far more gold below ground. Meanwhile Minnesota-based Vermilion Gold is drilling test holes to pinpoint gold deposits just outside Virginia.
In Ontario, just 40 miles north of the Minnesota border, the New Gold company is digging an all-new gold mine that is expected to be operational in 2017.
His unilateral decision on Twin Metals project skirts due process.
By Norm Coleman MAY 5, 2016 — 5:59PM
Gov. Mark Dayton and President Obama have more in common than simply being liberal politicians.
Both are taken with the belief that they are allowed to act solely upon their personal beliefs and opinions.
In the case of Obama, if he wants something done his way, he doesn't follow the process envisioned by our founding fathers. He simply issues an executive order.
Dayton has become partial to exercising his own version of an executive order.
Most recently, it was Dayton's unilateral decision to block access to state lands and deny future mineral leases to Twin Metals Minnesota.
Twin Metals Minnesota is working to develop an underground copper-nickel mine between the cities of Babbitt and Ely to expand economic growth and opportunity in one of the most economically challenged regions of the state. Twin Metals Minnesota is trying to create jobs.
How many jobs?
It is estimated that the Twin Metals Minnesota project will create about 850 full-time jobs when in operation and that it will generate nearly 12 million labor hours during a three-year construction period — plus another 1,700 to 1,900 additional indirect jobs.
Dayton, in blocking this effort, destroys jobs. It is as simple and as pure as any of the groundwaters of Minnesota we all seek to protect and preserve.
It is that commitment to protecting Minnesota's natural resources that defines the process that Twin Metals Minnesota has followed in its efforts to create jobs in the mining industry.
Our own Minnesota founders made it clear that the state's natural resources exist to be responsibly used for the benefit of all of our citizens.
In fact, under our state's Constitution, specifically Article XI, Section 8, royalties generated from the extraction of our abundant minerals on state trust-fund lands are dedicated to a fund to support every school district in Minnesota.
Minnesota has developed one of the nation's most rigorous environmental-review processes and permitting standards in order to ensure that extraction of minerals does not come at the expense of the environment. Minnesotans rightly expect our Department of Natural Resources to deny permits for projects that pose a danger to the environment, and to permit projects that meet our standards, after a rigorous review of the project's impacts on the environment and the community.
But the governor doesn't want that process even to happen. He intends to pull an Obama and violate both the spirit, and perhaps even the letter, of the law.
His personal opinion is now more important than the process and the law.
Twin Metals Minnesota is being arbitrarily denied even the opportunity to prove its viability through Minnesota processes that were created to responsibly uphold the state's mandate to support the exploration and extraction of mineral resources.
Due process denied.
I understand the governor's devotion to environmental extremist groups that seek to stop all mineral development regardless of its impact on the hardworking families of northeastern Minnesota. It's easier to be a hero to them than it is to be an advocate for Twin Metals Minnesota.
But nobody asked the governor to be an advocate for Twin Metals Minnesota — or for any other company seeking to follow the rigorous environmental-review process we should all support before permits are ever issued.
Minnesotans, regardless of where they stand on these issues, simply want the governor to enforce a consistent set of rules.
The governor communicates to companies seeking to do business in Minnesota that finding yourself on the wrong end of his personal ideological agenda may be a one-way ticket to denial of your business opportunity.
The governor has an obligation to let the process for Twin Metals Minnesota — or for any company that must comport to an environmental-review process — play itself out without interference or undue influence.
In the case of Twin Metals Minnesota, his failure to do so doesn't just undermine economic opportunity for northeastern Minnesota families, but it also jeopardizes a potential financial windfall for Minnesota schools, students and families throughout the state.
The only winner in this losing hand the governor has decided to play are those who would deprive Minnesotans of economic opportunity and jobs in the name of political correctness and environmental extremism.

The only thing he didn't reckon with is the weakness of his heart and how fast he will fall for the young woman whose naivety of her father's corruption leaves her an innocent bystander longing for freedom and chance at true love.
With Vesuvius's looming threat to the coastal city, two unlikely characters on a political stage that has reached its boiling point as Christians are jailed and executed must set aside their differences to save their loved ones or all will be lost.

If a string breaks or wears out, the time has come again: The guitar strings need to be changed.
We will show you how to put on the strings of your guitar step by step.
Tip: Nylon strings that you only play with your fingers last the longest of all string types!
How often you have to change the guitar strings depends on which strings, how often you play your guitar, and the actual quality of the strings you are using.
If the strings are rusty, rough, or the wire around them comes loose, the strings should be replaced.
Changing strings is necessary:
If you are happy with the sound of your guitar there is no need to change them.
Strings used on electric guitars are usually thinner than strings that are used for western guitars. You will have to change these more often, as they show signs of fatigue more quickly.
Are you allergic to nickel?
Most guitar strings for electric guitars are surrounded by nickel wire. Depending on how strong your allergy to nickel is, playing the guitar becomes a pain. Fortunately, there is a solution to this problem: strings coated with plastic. Elixir strings with Nanoweb coating are recommended for players with nickel allergies.
If your guitar has a Floyd-Rose tremolo, changing the guitar strings is a little different. The tremolo ensures that the guitar stays in tune by screwing the strings to the bridge

Wine lovers, raise your glasses and toast to the best vino for every horoscope sign! We've done the legwork for you and found the perfect Pinot for comfort-loving Cancers and the best bold Chardonnay for outgoing Leo. Think of our wine guide as your cosmic grapevine to the best bottles for every sign.
Aries (March 21 - April 19)
Toasted Head Cabernet Sauvignon: Just as Aries' love to plant themselves in the heart of any controversial or challenging topic, the grapes used to make this wine thrive in the rough and gravel-like soil of their region -- and it's perfect for fiery Aries. Sourced from the Lake County region of California and from Mendocino, including the Redwood Valley, this wine is a sassy mix of cherry, rhubarb and raspberry, giving it a seemingly fun and outspoken flavor. But don't worry, it's not all sass and no serious with this wine. In typical Aries fashion, the wine's vanilla and mocha aromas (from barrels aging) make sure this wine gets taken seriously.
Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
Gloria Ferrer Blanc de Noirs Champagne: All Taurus' love champagne. It's a fact. However, the stubborn bull of the zodiac can be very discerning when it comes to which champagnes they will actually buy and drink. Taurus likes the highest of quality at the best of price. That's why we choose this Blanc de Noirs as our Taurus taster. It met all five criteria of our highly sensory Taurus. 1) Taste: Not too sweet, not too dry. 2) Smell: Subtle hint of vanilla won't offend the Taurus' keen sense of smell. 3) Touch: Small, lively bubbles tingle the lips and mouth keeping the bull happy. 4) Sight: The price tag. A quality vineyard at a steal of a price. 5) Sound: Clinking champagne glasses trigger that sense of quality and satisfaction.
Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
Murphy Goode Sauvignon Blanc "The Fume": If you know a Gemini, chances are this networking sign has a slew of wine recommendations to offer up. However, we picked this Sauvignon Blanc for our Geminis to enjoy for some very specific reasons. Our lovely Twin of the zodiac can't help but be attracted to the contradictory taste of this Fumé. We think it's because this wine, while predominately fermented in stainless steel to retain it's fruit aromatics prior to bottling, also goes through a second and brief barrel fermentation to give it a hint of oak. It's this second look at the flavor -- this "twin perspective" on fermenting -- that makes this Sauvignon Blanc a sure things for any Gemini. He/She might even recommend it!
Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
Strangeland Vineyard Oregon Pinot Noir 2007: Often people joke, unsuccessfully, about Cancer's being a "crabby". Well, guess what . . . we know there is more to our crustacean friends! In fact, cancers are among the most sentimental and loving horoscope signs. Cancers thirst for an environment they can build and nurture from the ground up. Strangeland Vineyard and Winery is a small family owned winery specializing in handcrafted wines and seems especially appropriate for our Cancer wine lover. Strangeland prides themselves off using the natural beauty "in their own backyard" to create a comforting blend of flavors -- their own little slice of paradise in the heart of the Willamette Valley. Similarly, building a home to protect, preserve and foster the things they value most is what Cancers are all about. So this wine is sure to resonate with their passion for local heroes and love of comfort foods!
Leo (July 23 - Aug 22)
Carmel Road Monterey Chardonnay: Carmel Road Influential and outwardly confident, Leo's will love this bold and beautifully balanced Chardonnay. Its combination of grapefruit, pear and vanilla imparted by traditional barrel fermentation makes it unique and still wildly appealing. Sure, it's hard to find someone who doesn't like Chardonnay, but this particular Carmel Road is sure to please our Lioness because of its broad appeal and ability to spark conversation. Watch closely -- by the end of the night, this Leo will have convinced everyone that her wine is the only wine worth talking about. Hear her roar!
Virgo (Aug 23 - Sept 22)
Layer Cake Shiraz: Our Virgo wine drinker is definitely attracted to the highest standards, like Layer Cake Shiraz produced in South Australia -- arguably one of the top Shiraz-growing regions of the world. In fact, it's the Winemaker's Notes that make this wine a Virgo-must-drink: "An eye for detail and relentless perfectionism coupled with an insatiable desire to produce the finest wine is winemaker Jayson Woodbridge's gift." Not to mention, the clean-obsessed and nitpicky Virgo would insist on nothing less than non-interventionist winemaking practices, as used in the production of this Shiraz. Our earth sign Virgo loves the layered rich aromas of black plum, bing cherry, blackberry and pepper merged with licorice, tobacco, mocha and dark chocolate. Enjoy this wine, but be sure to wash and put your glass away when you're done!

Disclaimer: This product was sent to me complimentary in exchange for an honest, and fair review. The thoughts in this blog are my own.
Happy Monday everyone, and hope the start of your day has been a good one. Today I want to share with you a product review for Exfolimate.
So what is Exfolimate? It's a face & body tool used for exfoliation. It's a great way to exfoliate without the use of chemicals or harsh scrubs. Below please find Exfolimate actual product description.
*** What the Brand says: This new revolutionary personal exfoliation tools for the face & body to gently exfoliate prior to any skincare, shaving or hair removal treatments. The secret is its patented laser formed edge with micro grooves which combine with warm water in the bath or shower to exfoliate gently, naturally, quickly & easily. Enjoy fingertip controlled exfoliation to remove dead skin cells, oils, pollution, dirt and grime, but not the hairs….Exfolimate is not a shaver.
In one step you can clean, stimulate and smooth the skin! It is chemical free, safe, hygienic, and easy to use on the face or the whole body. It helps clear the pores, smooth away dead skin cells and rough, bumpy or dry patches of skin. Whether its dry, sensitive, oily skin or blemishes. Exfolimate can help. Also great for any shaving, waxing and problems with ingrown. It can also aid the absorption of all your skin care products and smoother skin also means your makeup or sunless tan goes on better! You receive two ergonomically designed personal face & body tools, cords & a comprehensive directions brochure. See www. exfolimate.com for more information.
Upon hearing about Exfolimate must say I was intriqued. Before it arrived at my home was concerned if it would be difficult to use, and if it would hurt. Intially my thoughts were no way this could work. Most of us are use to exfoliating with goopy scrubs, nylon puffs, or loofahs. Honestly thought I don't need this product, but wanted to give it a fair try. Now my first time using the Exfolimate didn't feel it did anything, but that was because I used it incorrectly.
Now let me share with you how to correctly use an Exfolimate. First would suggest using it in the shower. Make sure the water is either warm or hot. Hot or warm water will help to open your pores, and allow the tool to work better. Make sure your skin is thoroughly wet. Let's say your starting with the Exfolimate for the face. On wet skin hold your Exfolimate at 90 degree angle, and glide across skin. It's really that easy. Of course my first time using the product could have been more successful had I read the instructions first.
Do I think Exfolimate is a good product? Yes it is. Personally I like the tool for the body best. Found that the Exfolimate for the face is bit big to use on my face. Wish they would make a smaller version of Exfolimate for the face. The tool for the body was highly effective at exfoliating. Body Exfolimate is the perfect size in my view. I am big into self tanning. Using this tool the skin on my body is smooth, and ready to self tan. Awesome! An another positive is that the bumps on back my arms have cleared up since using Exfolimate.
Have been using this tool for a month now, and can share my true feelings. After using this product for a month I can recommend this tool. Yes the face Exfolimate is bit big for my face, but my middle brother loves it. The tool for the body is my favorite. Have no dry patches on my knees, elbows or ankles. My lotions, and potions, and self tanner can better absorb, and do their jobs.
If you would like an Exfolimate I will include links to purchase on Walgreens.com as well as Amazon.
*** Buy from Walgreens.com: http://www.walgreens.com/search/results.jsp?Ntt=Exfolimate

Thank you Exfolimate for allowing me to try this product, and share my thoughts. I would also like to thank my readers/friends for stopping by my blog. Hope all of you have a wonderful day. Stay Blessed.

Police save woman from armed attacker
A man, who was allegedly intending to carry out an attack on a woman, is remanded into police custody after appearing before an Arima Magistrate today, charged with possession of a firearm and ammunition.
Kenton Joseph, 22, of Mt. Zion Road, Arima, was denied bail when he appeared before Magistrate Debby-Ann Bassaw in the Arima 1st Magistrates' Court on Monday 28th May, 2018.
The matter has been postponed to Tuesday 29th May, 2018.
Internationally: Westminster attacker identified
The man believed to have carried out the attack in Westminster has been named by police as Khalid Masood.
Kent-born Masood, who died in the attack, was not the subject of any current police investigations, but had a range of previous convictions.
The 52-year-old was believed to have been living in the West Midlands.
The so-called Islamic State group has said it was behind the attack, in which PC Keith Palmer, Aysha Frade and US tourist Kurt Cochran were killed.
Eight arrests were made in London and Birmingham following Wednesday's attack.

So I've been massively AWOL. I decided to take a bit of a blogging break as everything seemed to be getting on top of me and it seems to have turned into a serious writing holiday! But now I am back with lots to say and lots of news (which is bound to happen over 3 months!!!! I cannot believe I disappeared for so long!!)
I won't bombard you all in one post with what I have been up to because that would be information overload but:
1. I returned from my belated honeymoon/American adventure on Tuesday so I have millions to share with you about that. I will tell you now that it was amazing, possibly the best holiday I have ever been on. I will try my best not to make you all jealous!
2. I am now back to work and normal life with an uncomfortable bump. But at least the weather is good! There is hope that I can maintain this tan for more than a couple of weeks!
3. Tom disappears off again for a month next week which sucks but... at least it's only a month.
4. I've been exploring the Cotswolds... specifically Stow on the Wold, Chipping Norton and Bourton on the Water.
5. We bought our first car together.. officially 'Our' car!
6. I have started seriously working on our little garden at home.. not as good as the view from our room in San Diego but... one day!
6. I have started seriously working on our little garden at home.. not as good as the view from our room in San Diego but... one day!
7. Last but not least, I will have some seriously huge news to tell you all in a couple of weeks (I know... how annoying is that to be left entirely in suspense but... I'm struggling to remember what has happened over the last few months with something so huge to tell you and I feel like I have to explain why I seem to have been so boring.)

Spanish artist-designer was born in Madrid in 1974. As a teenager, he submerged himself in skateboard culture and graffiti art, the foundation of the detailed, bold-yet-whimsical imagery so imminent in his work today. After studying industrial design in Madrid and Paris he joined Fabrica in 1997, the Benetton-funded design and communication academy, working closely with the legendary image-maker and agitator Oliviero Toscani.
In a short time he was promoted from student to head of their Design Department. Eight years later, Jaime broke out on his own, first with his collections of designer toys, ceramics and furniture, later followed by interior design and installations. Jaime Hayon has created the FAVN™ sofa for Fritz Hansen. It is designed with great attention to detail and consist of very few elements. Creating FAVN™ has been an experimental dialogue. Thinking in a holistic approach, discussing who we are and how we live. Back to the human approach, while being innovative and taking risks.
I wanted to create a form that embraces you, something really organic - that's why we named it FAVN. At the same time I wanted to explore a technique - I always focus on techniques. It looks really simple, but it's really complex.
