The Coredem i s a collective project that gathers more than 30 organisations which share information and analysis thanks to Scrutari, a search engine unlike any other! 40 000 documents (articles, documentary files, study cases, experience records) on different issues dealt by actors committed to the construction of a democratic and fair society.
Beyond Borders
This new issue of the Passerelle Collection aims to inspire people to analyse and think through the issues surrounding borders. Indeed, the border embodies a great number of social, (geo)political, economic and historical issues... It is therefore crucial to examine and think deeply about the border and everything that it symbolises in order to imagine an alternative future for territories and their people. We need to move beyond the "migration crisis" narrative to a more comprehensive approach that puts human dignity at the forefront of our concerns.
What do borders look like in a globalised, deterritorialised world rife with "invisible" walls? Why are borders open to some but closed to others? What are the political and economic forces at play? This issue also explores the different forms of resistance and action going on in the world, as voiced by those challenging closed border policies; and it offers ideas and alternatives to the current border regime.
Beyond Borders seeks to shed light on the various forces at work, in order for us to be better equipped to work, through international solidarity, towards achieving social justice and protecting the fundamental rights of everyone.

Hogs are much like dogs. They just have shorter hair for the most part, snort more, and like to eat raw potatoes. Which reminds me of a poem. Of course everything reminds me and the editorial staff at Advanced Poetry, of a poem. I'm sure you can relate. If not, you probably belong elsewhere. Maybe there is a Beginners Poetry site for people like you.
07/24/2012 4:55pm
I agree completely with this statement. Everyone knows hogs and dogs are similar. Also, that fact always brings to mind a poem. In my case, it brings to mind two poems. I have a friend who isn't reminded of a poem when he compares dogs and hogs. I no longer associate with him because of that.

I am with my friend Schlongfellow. When I am with someone who is not reminded of a poem when something beautiful is staring them in the face, like hogs and dogs, I poke their eyes out because they can't see anyway.

Mr. Hardwick,
07/25/2012 1:48pm
Perhaps that was not an advanced thing for me to do. I might have to spend a little more time at intermediate poetry before trying to understand advanced poetry. You are a wise man Frank and you have inspired me to visualize myself.

Diesel Black Gold is certainly in the mood for some heavy metal, which makes perfect sense given the brand's history. Known for marrying forward-thinking, technologically advanced materials to traditional denim and low-key fits, the choice to show an ultra-reflective (but still very wearable) group of garments fits with Diesel's DNA. And Bullett's very own Art Director James Orlando caught the backstage fun with his own retro-inspired saturated shots, letting the models, well…shine.
The metal detailing showed up all over the spring items, from scaled patches to full on, disco-ball inspired pants and shorts. Shimmery leggings, gold-encrusted shoes, and mirrored leather jackets all resembled a world where the Jetsons have gone grunge. Backstage, the wet-look trend(seen last season on the Wang runway) continued with slicked back hair for both men and women, sticking with the casual-futuristic vibe (like the way we'd imagine a party 100 years from now, today).

Vipassana means to see things as they really are and it's a type of meditation claimed to have been taught by Buddha in India thousands of years ago. There are Vipassana centres throughout the world offering courses including a venue in Drogheda, Louth. If you have not taken a course before are required to take a 10 day course. Those that have already taken at least one 10 day course are considered old students and can take other length courses including 1, 3 and 30 day courses. I decided to do a course on my recent trip to Nepal in Birgunj which is on the border with India. Anyone who knows me would have laughed at the thought of me attending a course but I am very glad I did. While I don't fully 'buy into it' I do think it is very beneficial and will be doing further courses in the future.

|Question time
As you can see there is a lot of meditation. The course is completely silent and you are expected to maintain noble silence for the duration of the course. This means not communicating with anyone else whether its verbal or otherwise. This means no waving or making eye contact. The hardest thing I found was not being able to say thank you when someone served food to me. The course is hosted by an assistant teacher who sits at the top of the hall and is available if you have questions. The majority of the course is taught by S. N. Goenka through tape playings and evening videos.
First Three Days
The first three days is technically not Vipassana mediation but instead Anapana and is used to focus the mind. You are to concentrate on your breathing and the sensation of the air entering and leaving your nostrils. Slowly you expand the area of focus to include your upper lip and the exterior of the nose. It may seem silly spending 10+ hours a day focussing on breathing but I was shocked at how quickly your mind wonders. After the three days I did notice I was much better at focusing.
After the three days of Anapana it's time to start with Vipassana proper. This involves being hyper aware of the sensations occurring in your body. While Anapana focuses on breathing Vipassana doesn't, it concentrates on the vibrations that make up the body. On the first few days of practising Vipassana you start from the top of your head and concentrate on a small section of your forehead, wait until you feel a sensation in that part, then move to next section of your forehead. You continue this to cover your entire body. As the days go on you get more sensitive and can do sweeps across your body taking in all the sensations. The idea is to connect with your body and pay attention to the sensations within.
I'm going to explain the 'theory' behind the technique. It would be fair to say I don't fully agree that the theory is true but I'll outline it anyway. There are four parts of the mind which all act separately and deal with the output of the previous perception -> cognition -> feeling -> reaction. The reaction section creates Sankaras or intentions which can be positive (craving) or negative (aversion). You do not want to crave anything nor be averse to anything but to understand that everything is changing. There is no point having an aversion to a itch as it is only temporary and to have negative feelings towards it is wasting energy. The same idea is you shouldn't go out craving feelings you cannot control. When you feel a sensation you should just accept that the sensation exists and it will pass shortly. If you do generate sankaras they will multiple and you cannot be fully happy with sankaras. If when passing through your body you feel a tense part of the body you should focus on this tense part without judgement in order not to create more sankaras. By just focussing on the tenseness without judgement the sankaras will slowly be dissolved and the tenseness will disappear.
Teacher discourse
Each evening there is a video shown of S. N. Goenka who is the main teacher of Vipassana. He is quite charming character and I found his stories interesting. I would argue some of the things he said borders on religious while he maintains Vipassana is a secular technique. Some of the group seemed to idolise the guy which I believe goes against his teachings. Either way, its nice to have a video in the evenings to mix it up a bit. The stories are entertaining and all have a good point.
All food is provided for you. You only get two full meals per day – breakfast and lunch so it's important to eat as much as you can during these meals. Breakfast and Lunch tended to be various curries, dal, rice, potatoes, curd etc. The food was all vegetarian and extremely good. During my course Tea consisted of a cup of tea and puffed rice. If we were lucky we'd get a mango as well.
What to bring
All you really need is clothes and potentially an alarm clock. While the centre had a bell I sometimes napped during lunch break and wouldn't here the bell. You are not allowed mobile phones, laptops, books, pens/paper etc. If you do bring these to the centre they will keep it locked away in the office for the duration of the course. In the Birgunj centre in Nepal they also kept my passport during the course.
All Vipassana courses are completely free to attend and funded by donations. The expected donation amount varies depending on where you take the course – donations in the US would be expected to be higher than India to cover the increased costs. I was quite unsure how much to donate in Nepal, myself and another westerner donated $100 each. We have no idea if this was sufficient/too much but it felt right at the time.
I had no idea what to expect when I signed up for the course. I feel I learnt a lot from the meditation and wish I continued meditating for longer. I noticed I was much calmer and relaxed after the course and I continued meditating for an hour a day. Slowly, I stopped doing it quite so often until I finally stopped meditating. Since stopping I've noticed I'm more stressed and moody. I find great value in Vipassana meditation but don't necessarily believe the Sankara theory. I would recommend people to go do a course with a completely open mind and not expect anything in particular. If you go in with expectations that this will help solve all your issues you won't get much out of the course.

Solar Panel Installation
Solar Installation Assessments can be done by satellite or by a professional visiting your installation site. (Fill form above to receive solar assessment) We'll take some key solar measurements of your location/building/area and include your critical goals in our assessment. After this, we can provide you with an installation proposal including; clean energy data projections, estimated costs, expected return on investment, product warranties and installation project timelines. A solar assessment will give you all the information you need to make a well informed decision about whether a solar energy system is right for you. Solar installation assessments can be completed by satellite but we highly recommend onsite assessments for the most detailed reports.
We can install your solar array directly to your home (rooftop most likely) or we can provide you with a stand-alone ground mount design if preferred. Our system design team and certified installer network professionals are all trained in solar technology with many years of combined experience installing solar energy solutions of all sizes!

Solar Net Metering Benefits - Grid-Tie Installation
Solar Net Metering is a type of grid-tied solar installation that is connected directly to the homeowner's electrical panel. When the homeowner's solar panels produce electricity, it can be used directly. But in the case where more electricity is being produced than it is being consumed simultaneously, the extra electricity will be sent back to the grid, earning the homeowner credits in exchange. The Net Metering system is easy and inexpensive. You get real value for the energy produced, without having to install a second meter or a battery storage system. It allows homeowners and businesses to produce energy, which takes some of the pressure off the grid, especially during periods of peak consumption.
It encourages consumers to play an active role in alternative energy production, which both protects the environment and helps preserve natural energy resources. Homes that use net metering tend to be more aware of, and therefore more conscientious about their energy consumption. With rising electricity costs, Net Metering is becoming an attractive option for more homeowners. This is because the more the price of electricity increases, the more they can benefit from having a Net Metering system. Plus there is the added convenience of being connected to the grid. If the produced power doesn't meet demand, extra electricity can always be drawn from the grid.

United States: Ex-Republican chief of staff pleads guilty to kickback scheme
A former House Republican chief of staff confessed Monday to accepting more than $100,000 in kickbacks from a Florida direct-mail business in return for steering $1 million in printing contracts from taxpayer-funded candidates to the firm.
George Gallo pleaded guilty in federal court to one count of mail fraud for gaming the state's so-called clean elections program for personal profit, the latest high-profile corruption sting in Connecticut. At the time, House candidates could each get up to $25,000 in taxpayer grants if they raised $5,000 in political contributions.
The 46-year-old Gallo faces 15 to 21 months in prison if a judge follows the recommendations of prosecutors, who say he abused his position as the caucus' chief of staff and former state GOP chairman to steer contracts to Direct Mail Systems in Clearwater, Fla.

How Much Raw Food Should I Feed My Dog? Let's Find It
Feeding raw food to my dog seems to be a pro and contra. Eating raw food imitates an eating way of dogs in the wild life. Many people affirm that raw food becomes the natural way to ensure the optimal health of the dogs. So, how much raw food should I feed my dog? It becomes a dose of feeding my dog.
Is Raw Food Safe and Healthy for My Dog?
Giving raw food has a pro and contra. Surely, it comes together. Raw food is very healthy for my dog's health because it contains natural nutrition needed by a dog. But, raw food can take bad effect to the dog. A dog has a stronger stomach than a human. Bacterial infection of raw food is barely happened. The dietary habit with raw food is actually safe and secure for animal because the dogs have stronger gastric acid. It means that they can adjust the gastric to the bacteria in raw food. Indeed, raw food can be given as long as meeting the rules and requirements.
Balance and Complete Nutrition of Raw Food
It is important to serve raw food for my dog completely and balance. It means that the served raw food needs to fulfill nutrition criteria needed by my dog. How much raw food should I feed my dog? It should feed my dog regularly one to twice a day if my dog has no bad reactions to the raw food. Dog's raw food should be taken from various foods and given in a varied time. It must have balance and complete nutrition of raw food along the time.
Types of Raw Food for My Dogs
Feeding my dog with raw food shouldn't be conducted carelessly. There are no raw food types like chicken which the level must exceed a half of dog's food portion. You can include the cast – offs to your dog food as long as it is not fatty food. Meat and animal food become a type of raw foods for my dog. The portion at least reaches a half of your dog's food portion. If it has excessive fat level, it causes obesity.
Boneless meat becomes another type of raw food for my dogs. It includes fowl, or red meat. The heart part is the best choice because it is low fat and tends to be cheaper than the other parts. Fish is also healthy for dogs. It contains vitamin D that should be given. Canned fishes such as pink salmon, sardines, and mackerel become a great choice.
Body organs i.e. liver should be given about 5% of food or one ounce liver per a pound of given meat. Cow liver is the most nutritious one but I can change it with chicken liver or the others. Egg becomes high nutrition raw food for my dogs. It can be combined with milk for enriching nutrition of my or your dogs. Contained – flour vegetable is a good choice for dog's raw food. How much raw food should I feed my dog? You can give it in combination. You can give potato, pumpkin, or nut with green vegetable free flour such as broccoli, cauliflower, and many more. You may combine it with fruits for your dogs like banana, apple, berry, papaya, and melon.

Badger Setts
Badgers are common over most of Britain, living in a wide variety of habitats (though they remain very secretive and elusive mammals).
The badger lives an underground home called a sett, which will typically be towards the centre of their territory or home range. Their setts are usually situated in or near small clearings in woodland or copses. Roughly 80% or so are in woodlands or hedgerows where trees or their roots provide the badger with some form of protection. The sett will be obvious to those who know what to look for, as the ground around the used entrances will probably be free of vegetation, and may be muddy and may show evidence of badger prints. There may also be evidence of latrines (holes in the ground) nearby, into which badgers do their poo.
A simple sett is made up of a single tunnel, with a sleeping chamber at the end. However, most setts have several entrance holes, and lots of tunnels which link up with each other. The tunnels also link up with sleeping and nursery chambers. The tunnels may have several interlinking passages underground; and may also be arranged so as to provide a constant supply of clean fresh air through the sett in most weathers. Accordingly, entrances may sometimes be on different levels to help stale air rise through the sett and be dissipated into the surrounding woodland.
Well-established setts normally have several entrances which are much larger than rabbit holes, and which have large piles of earth outside. The sett consists of large chambers for sleeping and breeding and small ones used as latrines, interlinked by a maze of tunnels.
A really big sett can have from 50 to 100 or more entrance holes. A sett this big will have been dug out by lots of badgers, over many years. There are some setts which are known to be over a hundred years old. Many generations of badgers have lived in these setts.
Badgers like to dig their setts where the ground is easy to dig. Sandy soil is a favourite, because it is easy to dig, and it stays drier than other soils. Chalk and broken limestone is also popular. Badgers do not like digging into clay, as this is wet and sticky. Even so, badgers will sometimes make setts in clay, if they can't find anywhere else.
They use their powerful front claws to dig and expand their homes. Their front claws may be 25mm long; and you will often hear them scratch on the ground if they are walking about on hard surfaces, such as roads, paving stones or block paving. Their claws on their back feet are shorter, as "only" 10 to 15mm.
Badgers also like to dig where there is a good slope, such as on the side of a hill, or in a bank. Water drains away better on a slope, and this means that the sett stays dry. Roughly 90% of badger setts are in areas of sloping ground.
Badgers dig their setts in many different habitats. Woodlands and hedgerows are good places to find badger setts, but badgers will also dig their setts in open fields, moorland, sand dunes, old quarries, abandoned mine workings and even sea cliffs! It is immensely important for a badger to feel safe in its home; and they will often dig setts or re-use old caves, mines, quarries, tips and old road/rail embankments. These can provide the badger with a really secure fortress which can protect the entire clan. Badgers will make great efforts to safeguard a main sett - in part because it is the best place for them to live locally; and also because they will have made a huge effort (in terms if work and time) to construct and expand the sett.
Nesting Chambers
Nesting chambers within the sett are key to the comfort of the badger; as they provide a cool place to sleep during the summer heat; and they provide constant temperature in the cold winter temperatures. Nesting chambers are filled with bedding materials to keep the badger insulated and off the wet soil and to minimize draughts. This is especially important for small cubs, who would lose heat quickly, if they did not have warm bedding or if they were left out in the open.
For many years it was thought that all nesting chambers were formed at the end of a tunnel. Whilst it is true that most nests will be well away from the entrances (and therefore at the ends of tunnels), nesting chambers are sometimes formed in a slight widening of a tunnel. We would expect that nesting chambers used by nursing sows would be more secure and would have only a single entrance to the chamber; as this would allow the sow to defend the cubs from predators; by blocking the cubs inside as she guarded the entrance.
Nesting chambers vary in size and shape, but can be as small as 600mm in diameter. In other words, some chambers are too small to allow an adult badger to stretch out. Because nesting chambers can be so small, badgers often sleep curled up in a ball or together in nose-to-tail fashion. Such compact nesting chambers probably help badgers stay warm; especially as two badgers sharing a chamber will find it a lot easier to conserve their body heat. This is important in the winter; as there is little food; and badgers live largely off their reserves of fat.
Especially in a main sett, there will be rotation of the chambers which are in use. An individual chambers may be used for two or three consecutive days, before badgers move to use another chamber. This is done in rotation, so that over a periods of a few months, each chamber in a main sett may have been used. This rotation of nesting chambers means that each chamber has a chance to recover and freshen up; and so that any parasites which drop off the badger into the bedding have a chance to die off in the bedding rather than building up into a harmful load. Like many animals which have coats of fur or hair, badger can carry parasites, including certain species of fleas and lice.
Sett Types
In the UK, the following sett categories are recognised:
Outside the UK, there is a tendency to identify a badger sett as "main" or "other"; which is a bit simpler. Importantly, the designation of a sett may change over time. Some setts may become abandoned by badgers; and fall out of use. In other cases, badger territories may change; and a non-main sett may be upgraded by being converted into a main sett. The conversion of a non-main sett into a main sett does not always mean that there are more badgers in the locality, as they may have move out of their main sett into another sett which they use as a replacement main sett.
Main Setts
These usually have a large number of holes with large spoil heaps, and the sett generally looks well used. They usually have well used paths to and from the sett and between sett entrances. Although normally the breeding sett is in continual use, it is possible to find a main sett that has become disused because of excessive digging or for some other reason, in which case it is recorded as a disused main sett.
Annex Setts
These are always close to a main sett, usually less than 150 m away, and are usually connected to the main sett by one or more obvious, well worn paths. They consist of several holes, but are not necessarily in use all the time, even if the main sett is very active.
Subsidiary Setts
These often these have only a few holes, are usually at least 50 m from a main sett, and do not have an obvious path connecting them with another sett. They are not continuously active.
Outlying Setts
These usually only have one or two holes, often have little spoil outside the hole, have no obvious path connecting them with another sett, and are only used sporadically. When not in use by badgers, they are often taken over by foxes or even rabbits. However, they can still be recognised as badger setts by the shape of the tunnel (not the entrance hole), which is at least 250-300 mm wide at the base with a rounded or flattened oval roof (roughly 200 mm high).
Over a period of decades, main setts can expand so they become even more obvious structures, with up to 100 entrances, with tens of tonnes of excavated material in substantial spoil heaps and hundreds of metres of underground tunnels.
In some cases; the badgers may adopt a pattern is digging new tunnels and entrances at one side of the sett. In these cases, it is not unknown to see a main badger sett "move" tens of metres over a period of decades. Whilst this may seem a curiosity; it can cause problems if the sett starts to encroach onto gardens, golf courses and under roads/railways or buildings. In circumstances like this, when badgers are beginning to cause human problems, the people affected need to contact their local Badger Group or a specialist Badger Consultant.
Other Residents
Badger setts are often used by other animals as well as badgers. Rabbits often live in badger setts. Foxes will also rear their young in setts. These animals live in small setts, or parts of larger setts, which are not being used by badgers at the time.

The mortals have cunctation down to a fine art.
I'll wait here while you go look that up.
They may say that they leave the Yule tree up in observance of some arcane reckoning of liturgical minutiae and/or trivialities, but we all know that anything that smacks of effort around here tends to be put off practically indefinitely.
But apparently today's the day! Time to un-Yule. The over-decorated arboreal monstrosity has been de-frocked and is in the process of being dismantled and wrestled back into its plastic prison to dream away another Midgardian year.
I did not help with the disembellishment. Nor did I point out they were making one teensy little oversight…
…until the various boxes of ornaments had been laboriously tetrised into two big tubs and lugged back up into the attic. It's far too much work to reunite this little bauble with its brethren now. Oh, no! Whatever shall we do?
Hmmm. I wonder if I can possibly find someone who loves shiny, round, glass things.

At 12pm on Sunday 15th July, SolFed members dragged themselves out of bed to join forces with local AFed and IWW activists to extend the anti-workfare campaign to the Costa coffee chain. A cup of coffee from the independent coffee shop next door helped us get ready for the picket. We managed to hand out around 150 leaflets, and, as before, we felt that people were generally very sympathetic to our action (apart perhaps a traditional Catholic, (French) National Front voter).

The following is written up at The Libertarian Standard. The whole evangelical christian warmongering thing is of great concern to me. Most people in that genre consider Oliver North a hero even though the evidence of his crimes makes him a traitor to America and probably a major player in the drug distribution system in the late 70's through the early 80's. (E)
The Libertarian Standard
by Stephan Kinsella on November 12, 2010 @ 10:34 am
Last night, I attended "Heal Our Heroes: Ministering to the Military in Our Midst," an event here in Houston featuring keynote speaker Colonel Oliver North. (I was invited by a friend who had a table.) It was a fundraising dinner for Military Ministry, which provides various spiritual counseling and resources to soldiers. There were parents and a singer who had lost loved ones or suffered post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) etc. from the Iraq or Afghanistan war, various testimonials, etc. It was very Protestant in that Jesus was mentioned repeatedly and they explicitly pushed for us to give money at the end (Catholics are a bit more discreet when they ask for money–they just pass the basket).
I can understand wanting to help those who are suffering from the effects of war–even the soldiers. But after showcasing all the soldiers' whose lives have been ruined by the military and by war, you would think there might be a word about peace or stopping the fighting that causes such devastation. But no, not a word. I suppose this is understandable: their mission was to raise money, so they focused on that.
But two other things really shocked me, both regarding the degree to which American Protestant Christians have intermingled their faith with patriotism and love of the state. For one, an award was given out, which was a miniature replica of a statue of Jesus hugging a soldier. Now I have no doubt the idea of a loving, compassionate savior giving succor to someone damaged by war is compatible with Christianity, but this seemed to go beyond that. And this impression was reinforced by the words of a young lady who spoke on behalf of MM. She said that in this world there are only two classes of people who have directly given their lives for you: Jesus, who gave his life to save your soul; and the soldier, who gives his life to save your freedom. Jesus comforting and forgiving the soldier–fine. Comparing soldiers to Jesus? Sacrilege. I don't think Jesus is supposed to have had guilt or PTSD over what He did. Soldiers do, for a reason: War is hell. Jesus didn't kill and murder people. Soldiers do.
Christians in America, especially Protestants and the "right-wing" types, it seems to me, have their priorities a bit out of place. Statolatry crowds out true faith and religion.

Whip up the chili - two hundred pounds worth, if you please - Jessa Duggar and Ben Sewald are tying the knot! The newest married Duggar kept one major wedding moment under wraps.
She and Ben have been saving their first kiss until they say I do. Kudos to them. This is not something I can manage. I have a hard time not squeezing my boyfriend butt basically whenever it is near me. For real. It's a problem. Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard also saved their first kiss for after the wedding. But Jill and Derick made their inaugural smooch an integral part of the ceremony, with Derick dipping Jill and giving her a big romantic smooch in front of every single person gathered and presumably also the big honcho in the sky.
Jessa said from the beginning that her wedding would be very different from Jill's. It was, in three ways. Jessa wore a PINK wedding dress, she opted for sundaes instead of the more traditional wedding cake AND rather than share her first smooch with Ben in front of the world at large, the newlyweds bolted after saying their I-Dos to kiss privately -- pretty darn cute.
I gotta say, while I personally think you should kiss before you get married (to make sure the person you profess to love is someone you actually connect with chemically) if you do make the decision to keep your lips on lock-down until there's a ring on it, doing like Jessa and Ben and not making a spectacle out of it is definitely the way to go. First kisses -- while great -- are often awkward as balls! It was smart of the couple to work out the special moment in private.
Would you ever judge someone by the first kiss?

In an interview of 19th March 2019 on CORE TV channel, IGas CEO Stephen Bowler (SB) talks about Tinker Lane and Springs Road. SB explains that drilling the Tinker lane well was all about fulfilling the contractual commitment (by way of the Petroleum Exploration and Development Licence). Having only 2D seismic data (Editor: from 1980's) "IGas were never going to go back to flow that well." The outcomes at Tinker Lane were:
Drilling speeds better than hoped.
Took some sidewall cores (not full cores) and some preliminary data looked encouraging.
More data expected in due course.
Tinker lane well is now officially abandoned and it will be restored to agricultural land.
Of Springs Road, a much deeper well to 3,500 metres, three targets of which 2 had been encountered. Taken 250 metres of core (later said 150 metres). The drilling speed had surpassed even that of Tinker Lane and were now drilling to a deeper interval. IGas expecting an initial indication from laboratory testing of the cores in Q2 and full analysis in Q3. The factors that will be of importance are rock properties, gas content and fracture characteristics. Will the gas flow? Drilling costs and gas price. In a couple of months time a second vertical well will be drilled with a 1,500 horizontal section off it. IGas might then look for regulatory/planning approvals to frack the well.
SB says that the second Springs Road well is also an exploratory well and implied that the fracking investigation would be undertaken within the existing Traffic Light System. For commercial development the .5 limit is prohibitive. IGas and others are looking to the Oil and Gas authority to raise the levels.
SB envisages a single pad might supply enough gas for half a million homes and that 60 pads might deliver a meaningful quantity of gas. Editor comment: 60 pads with 12-14 wells per pad (INEOS estimates) thus 720 – 840 wells, presumably across IGas licence area in the East Midlands.
A final comment from SB on the "Eureka" calls from INEOS on the initial findings at Tinker Lane. SB said that he was more conservative, but said that they were correct! The Interviewer also stated during the interview that the gas show was from the Millstone Grit interval and not from shale. This was not contradicted by SB.

Alberta Oil Economy Crash Reverberates in B.C.
2015 Seasonal Okanagan Economy Likely To Suffer:
Apparently all we need are more Temporary Foreign Workers
BC Business low ranking of Kelowna jobs market only adds to the problem
Future Shop, The Sequel
UPDATE: January 15, 2015. Target announced today that it will be closing all 133 stores in Canada, including the Vernon and Kelowna stores. eliminating at least a couple of hundred local $10/hr jobs and a handful of slightly better paid management jobs. The Wall Street Journal is reporting that Target's 17,000 + Canadian layoffs of low income workers will be the largest in Canadian history.
Just this week, Kelowna Now reported that B.C. Business ranked Kelowna 17th in B.C. for the quality of its jobs market. Seven key economic indicators were used to help reflect the health of a city's job market including: income growth, average household income, population growth, unemployment, labour participation, the percentage of people with degrees and taking transit. This came as no surprise to many. As if to underscore the issue, the comments on Kelowna Now's Facebook page were in overwhelming agreement with the poor ranking, sprinkled with scathing criticism of the local jobs market, local government, and the local establishment, who seem not to be interested in the local economy.
In a jaw dropping display of callous indifference to the local economy and jobs market, local Kelowna community leaders, including UBCO Deputy Vice Chancellor, Deborah Buszard, met to discuss local employment. Coming on the heels of the B.C. Business report, Kelowna Now reported the discussion at the meeting. The main theme in this reported discussion was how can Kelowna get more cheap TFW labour for tourism. Apparently there was no higher level discussion about the recent B.C. Business ranking of Kelowna at 17th in jobs. No discussion of the local Target closures, or the lack of economic development, and denial of impending oil economy crash. This is why Kelowna is going nowhere fast.

As if to make matters worse, the plummeting price of Western Canadian Select, essentially Alberta refined bitumen, and dire global oil economy forecasts, have cast a dark cloud over the Okanagan economy's prospects in 2015. Our largely seasonal tourism and service industry economies are likely to suffer serious shocks from Alberta's problems. The sightings of those red numbered license plates are likely to decline next summer. Both The Wall Street Journal and CNN Money are forecasting a recession in Texas in 2015, which mirrors the situation in Alberta, and is a wake up call to Kelownan's. At the same time, CBC's The National has been broadcasting a discussion series this week on The Politics of Oil, and how Canada has bet the entire economy on oil rather than diversifying and investing in the future.

Chelation Therapy for Heart and Vascular Diseases is a therapy that can open up blocked arteries in people with heart disease, or blockage in the blood vessels which feed the brain (causing strokes) or legs (claudication). It is considered "experimental" by some, but is supported by a significant body of medical literature. It has been supported by many studies in the medical literature, including a recent multi-center trial by the National Institutes of Health.

Traditionally, when a patient lost a tooth due to decay, fracture, infection, etc., the options available for replacement of the missing tooth often placed other healthy teeth in jeopardy. For example, a bridge would replace a missing tooth at the expense of the tooth in front and the tooth in back being prepared for crowns. For this reason it used to be very difficult to conservatively replace a missing tooth/teeth.
Dental implants are the most exciting and conservative tooth replacement option available today. Serving as THE GOLD STANDARD in modern dentistry when it comes to replacing a single or multiple missing teeth, dental implants are designed to look, feel, and function like your natural teeth.
We use advanced technology not found in most traditional dental practices to plan your tooth replacement solution in a real 3D environment. Specifically, a 3D radio-graphic scan of your jaw bones is used to carefully plan your implant surgery to ensure vital anatomical landmarks are not damaged.
A dental implant functions to replace the root of a missing tooth onto which a crown can be seated, such that it is the only treatment option currently available to replace a missing tooth without traumatizing the adjacent dentition. If you are missing most or all of your teeth, another option you can discuss with your doctor is Implant supported dentures.
The tremendous benefits of dental implants:
- 98% success rate – Highest of any dental procedure!
- Prevents bone loss and gum recession that follows tooth loss.
- Restores proper chewing, allowing for more complete, healthier diet.
- Eliminates the need to prepare adjacent teeth required for conventional bridgework.
- Improves speech.
- Increases comfort.

26 Sep Here's What Happens When You Dare to Do The Fan Dance
Our team dared to do the fan dance amongst other challenging physical activities for the annual challenge weekend. The weekend away is an opportunity to walk the talk and practice our Be the Change value. Emma from our Employee Experience team talks about the highlights of the weekend, and how you could get involved next year.
Here at Thrive Tribe, the very nature of our work means that we are empowering our clients to lead a healthier lifestyle in a variety of ways, whether that be stopping smoking, losing weight or cooking healthier meals. Every single role within our organisation is dedicated to this purpose, but as a value driven organisation, we are keen to ensure that we look after the health and well-being of our staff too.
Every year we organise several staff initiatives and events that contribute to this ethos, our most recent being our annual Challenge Weekend…and what a weekend it was!
This year's challenge involved 23 of our tribe members descending on the beautifully scenic Brecon Beacons to embark upon a full day of activities, starting with kayaking and uphill cycling and finishing with completion of the 'Fan Dance' – the 24km hike that forms part of the SAS selection test. Helping raise awareness and funds for our corporate charity partner, Pancreatic Cancer UK, was a very important element of the activity to all involved and gave it extra meaning.
Due to Thrive Tribe's recent growth, this was the first experience of a challenge weekend for a number of those taking part, including Dena Ellis, Stop Smoking Specialist within One You East Sussex:
'I am still basking in the afterglow of happy memories of this weekend (also feeling a few sore muscles here and there!). There was so much support, encouragement and camaraderie from everyone involved, in the various ways that we came together throughout the weekend and strengthened our Tribe. Like so many of my colleagues, I feel incredibly grateful to be a part of this team and the opportunity to work side-by-side spreading the ripple effect of health and wellbeing.'
The challenge weekend is open to all Thrive tribe members of staff. Up for a weekend of bonding while you break a bit of a sweat? Check out our vacancies.

Initially reserved for the deeper more underground clubs he'd spin at in New York and beyond, Roger Sanchez officially debuted his S-Man alter ego in 1994 with 'Time 2 Stop' on legendary UK house label, Hard Times. To mark the twentieth anniversary and his perpetual love affair with the darker end of house music, S-Man returns in 2014 with 'Dangerous Thoughts', the debut release on his new label, UNDR THE RADR out through ONELOVE for Aust / NZ on June 13th.
'Dangerous Thoughts' continues a journey that began in 2013 with DJ sets first played on Ibiza's Space Terrace, where he'd start playing around 2am through to 6 or 7am (or later, if you knew where the party was at); these environments allowed him to craft a different kind of set and road test ideas he'd started playing around with in the studio.
The musical affinity with his (then on hiatus) pseudonym kept growing as Roger finished a series of tracks, this being the first one ready for release. While the tough percussion on 'Dangerous Thoughts' is pure S-Man, overall the sound is harder, the bass is further to the fore and the kick-drum leaves a 2014-size hole in the speakers!
Alongside the original and dub, remixes come from Amine Edge & DANCE, and Man Without A Clue.

How Andy Serkis learned Supreme Leader Snoke's fate in 'Star Wars: The Last Jedi' (spoilers)
Andy Serkis' story of discovering for himself his Star Wars: The Last Jedi screen fate is almost as anguishing as his evil Supreme Leader Snoke's final destiny.
It was a secret Serkis started carrying before filming his second Star Wars film as Snoke, the hideously misshapen leader of the evil The First Order.
Serkis found out Snoke's fate during a secrecy-ensured private script read during the The Last Jedi's pre-production. He left that read "knowing I would have to mask a great secret for a very, very long time."
Now appearing as the villain Klaue in Black Panther, Serkis has had a brilliant but bittersweet year for his screen characters. It's a year that started with his epic final performance as Caesar in War for the Planet of the Apes.
As Star Wars: The Last Jedi moves to Blu-ray and On-Demand release (March 27), Serkis, 53, opens up on Snoke.
Spoiler alert: STOP READING right now if you haven't seen 'Star Wars: The Last Jedi.'
More:Why 'Black Panther,' 'Star Wars' star Andy Serkis had such a rough year onscreen (spoilers!)
More:'Star Wars': These are the big 'Last Jedi' reveals you're looking for (spoilers!)
The actor was floored as he first found out that writer-director Rian Johnson had Snoke die in a surprise ending — which came after Snoke ordered his conflicted subordinate Kylo Ren (Adam Driver) kill heroic Rey (Daisy Ridley).
Instead, Kylo Ren cleaved Snoke in two with his lightsaber.
Serkis explains his own discovery:
"I was taken to my trailer on the lot at Pinewood Studios, where I was to read the script for the first time on a tablet. We were never handed printed scripts, and had to hand back the tablet as soon as we were done. I was swiping through the story, and landed on this epic scene, where Snoke is goading Kylo Ren to kill Rey, to fulfill his destiny. It was riveting, the tension building with each line. I just couldn't work out where it was heading. And then as I swiped up … there it was. The end … not for Rey, not for Kylo Ren, but for the Supreme Leader … just gone. I walked out of the trailer in a state of semi-shock, feeling the weight of knowing I would have to mask a great secret for a very, very long time and that my brother, a massive Star Wars fan, was going to be heartbroken."
No hard feelings for writer/director Johnson.
"I love what Rian did," says Serkis, who notes that audiences have been as surprised as he was. "I thought it was a brilliant scene."
But Serkis loved the evil Snoke, whom he had developed over two films and who was still evolving.
"I was beginning to really sink into him and really discover that character," says Serkis. "Really find who he was."
Shooting the scene with Driver and Ridley took over a week. And it was painful for Serkis, who had to fully go there imagining lightsaber agony.
"Imagining the moment where you pass, especially in that painful way, severed by a lightsaber. Part of you suffers that," he says. "It was a very intense scene to shoot."
Then there are all of these Star Wars theories around who Snoke is (or was). Serkis has his own thoughts. But he's not saying, just in the event Snoke were to appear again in the franchise. Somehow.
"I've had to carry that to his death. I cannot reveal that, just in case," says Serkis of his secrets. "Because in Star Wars, anything can happen."
Finally, Serkis will also miss the intense mental therapy he was getting by playing such an evil character.
"There's something delicious getting yourself into such a dark place. It's very much examining the darkest parts of yourself in a safe environment," says Serkis. "It's actually very good therapy."
But in the terms of Star Wars classic deaths, Lord Snoke's is "right up there," says Serkis.
"It was a very taut, high-stakes death."

Mazda CX5 Maxx AWD
- It costs: $35,983
- It has: A 138-kilowatt 2.5-litre four-cylinder with a six-speed auto
- We got: 10.5 litres per 100km in the city, 7.8 in the country. The official combined figure is 7.4.
The CX5 grew on me. It's easy to drive and the elevated driving position gives good visibility all around. The generous dimensions return plenty of room front and rear, and good cargo space. The reversing camera makes parking less of a handful.
I liked the seating, the clarity of the instruments and having solid power that's always available. This one was fitted with Mazda's optional safety package, which includes blind spot and cross traffic monitors and a warning system when braking is needed. It adds about $1230. It should be included as standard.
The thing I disliked intensely is that, despite a navigation option on the menu and among the buttons on the console, navigation is optional. Press the Nav button and you get your latitude and longitude and a message saying a dealer can fit navigation for you. Hand over $578 and he'll slip in the chip. If you refuse the optional navigation, the car will remind you of this for as long as you own it.
Mazda's CX5 dominated the medium SUV market last year, with 25,136 sales. That's because it's a really good thing. It's also well-specified, well-priced and offers a comprehensive range of two and four-wheel-drive models, petrol and diesel; from $31k up to $55k.
The Maxx is the entry-level model and 4WD adds about three grand but it's a very basic 4WD system – to the point where Mazda calls it all-wheel-drive. It's for the better bush tracks only. But all-wheel-drive gives a safety edge in the wet and on unsealed roads.
For the city, this is a great package. The motor is willing and energetic, the six-speed auto is beautifully smooth and the fuel economy is okay for an AWD.
It's a comfortable cruiser in the country, although the ride can get a little sharp over rough surfaces. There's little sign of top-heaviness and it hangs on to corners with security and dexterity.
- A great compact SUV for city slickers

RCA2018: Best Serviced Apartment Property (Southeast Asia)
Prinya Tieanworn, CEO of the VMPC Group (which is the holding company of Oakwood Hotel and Residence Sri Racha), and pictured here with wife Areeya Asvanund, was ecstatic at the property's dual wins in the Readers' Choice Awards this year.
"It is indeed an incredible feeling that Oakwood Sri Racha has won the award," he said after the first gong for Best Serviced Apartment property was announced. "It makes us proud and determined to serve our guest's with the best of our abilities."
Tieanworn puts the achievement down to a superior level of guest care and service that operates throughout the property and its facilities. "It was the team's major effort – they have been consistently working to treat our guests with the utmost care and have given them a feeling of a home away from home.
"Every day we all come back to hotel with one thought: let's make this hotel a better place to live than yesterday."
Oakwood Hotel and Residence Sri Racha opened in the second half of last year, and serves the rapidly expanding industrial region of Sri Racha in Chon Buri province. Tieanworn says the property has surpassed all of its expected targets and now stands as a solid platform for further growth in 2019.
