Property prices up, acquisition activity down in Permian Basin
Published 7:00 am, Wednesday, February 16, 2011
While transaction values for Permian Basin producing properties are good, said Ken Olive, president of the Houston-based Oil & Gas Asset Clearinghouse, there have not been a lot of sales there in recent months. Olive speculated that, with oil prices high, current owners are holding onto their assets and producing them rather than selling them off.
The fact that oil prices are higher than natural gas prices is of particular benefit to the Basin, in Olive's view, because, "It's an oily basin, and anything that's productive of oil is certainly in favor right now."
In fact, in considering cash flow metrics, Olive said, "The Permian's metrics are always at the top or near the top" of all fields considered.
The Clearinghouse is one of the sponsors of this year's 17th annual Executive Oil Conference. The conference will be held March 28 and 29, with the sessions on March 29 at the Midland Center.
Olive noted a number of area producers that were primarily involved in gas have been switching to oil because of the price difference -- some are even changing their logos to reflect this shift in balance.
"With the resurgence of the Basin in terms of the Wolfberry and associated plays that are spinning off from that, there's a lot of interest there and a lot of repeatability," Olive said. He added that the Wolfberry, while not what would be termed a true resource play, is repeatable and relatively predictable, which are attributes that attract Wall Street investment.
Last year at this time activity was just beginning to recover from the precipitous price drop of late 2008 and early 2009. A year ago Olive predicted that the latter half of 2010 would be a very active time, as the oil patch began to trust that prices were going to remain high for at least awhile, and that turned out to be true.
Producers began announcing larger capital budgets in February of last year, which fueled the acquisition momentum that snowballed throughout the year. It was hoped that gas prices would stabilize at around $4 per mbtu and that oil would stay around $70-$80 per barrel, both of which did indeed occur.
Olive pointed out that the $4 gas price was not ideal but at least it was stable and somewhat predictable. "This business functions great if we have some stability - which is relatively rare," he said, wryly. "If we have predictability, in terms of pricing, and good data, then the people in our industry are ready and willing to make decisions and, as a result, bets on where and how to spend their money." Lack of either stability or good data causes producers to be more conservative.
Beyond the Permian Basin, especially in gas-intensive fields, transactions involving The Clearinghouse are on track to boom. They ended last year with a bang, closing a transaction for Exxon Mobil in the Gulf of Mexico that totaled $1.012 billion - a transaction that was being conducted during the Deepwater Horizon blowout last summer. Olive recalled that The Clearinghouse's staff members put in over 10,000 man hours in two and-a-half months doing the engineering, geological and geophysical work necessary to host the data rooms and complete the sale.
"We have a lot of things in the hopper that will be coming to market here shortly through all of our processes," including both negotiated transactions and auctions, Olive said.
As to the ratio of auctions to negotiated transactions, Olive does not see a trend one way or the other, each type of transaction is appropriate to certain deals and not to others.
Because the public companies are going after the unconventional plays this creates a major opportunity for private producers, in Olive's estimation. "This is a wonderful opportunity (for private independents) to acquire conventional plays. It's non-resource, non-repeatable, good old oil and gas exploration and production. Your public companies are not your competitors for once.
"If you're just an independent producer, you should be able to pick up properties that the publics are letting go of," he continued. Because the Basin is mostly conventional oil plays, that makes it a very attractive place for those non-public independents.

Glenholme students give horse demo
Published 4:24 pm, Wednesday, September 30, 2015
Students of the Glenholme School, an independent, coeducational, special needs boarding school in Washington, recently provided an equestrian demonstration to showcase the knowledge and skills they developed in the program.
The building of special bonds with a horse acts as a powerful antidote for the young people of Glenholme, and in this annual demonstration the students' sense of pride in caring for and working with their equine friends was evident.
The demonstration further exhibited the extraordinary connection that exists between horses and humans — one which helps young people surmount difficult challenges.

I'm not sure this qualifies as harassment, but I was thoroughly disgusted regardless. As I was walking to the Farragut North metro last Thursday I saw a man on a bench with his hand completely down his pants. This was in broad daylight, during rush hour, and in the middle of a busy street…not even in a secluded location. He didn't appear to be masturbating to anything or anyone in particular. I wish I hadn't been in such a rush or I'd have taken his picture.

1. Purpose of the Tax
At present waste management practices in the UK are heavily weighted towards the bottom of the waste hierarchy. However, the Government has acknowledged (DETR 1998) that for the UK to manage its waste in this fashion is unacceptable, because it is a non-sustainable approach and because there is a limited and fast declining number of voids in which to dispose of waste (Read 1999). Thus, the Government has been anxious to be seen to be pursuing a sustainable waste management policy, and has thus sought to reduce the quantity of waste being landfilled (Read et al 1998). In order to make these options more cost-effective and readily available, the Government introduced the Landfill Tax on 1st October 1996 (HM Customs and Excise 1996). The purpose of the tax is firstly 'to ensure that landfill waste disposal is properly priced so as to reflect its environmental cost' and secondly 'to promote a more sustainable approach to waste management in which less waste is produced and more waste is either reused or has value recovered from it'. The belief is that if landfill (which is a relatively cheap and easy option for managing waste) were more expensive, as it was in other parts of Europe, waste producers would utilise other ways of disposing of their waste (HM Customs & Excise 1998).

Audie Award Nominee, Fantasy, 2013
Renowned throughout the land of Ankhana as the Blade of Tyshalle, Caine has killed his share of monarchs and commoners, villains and heroes. He is relentless, unstoppable, simply the best there is at what he does.
At home on Earth, Caine is Hari Michaelson, a superstar whose adventures in Ankhana command an audience of billions. Yet he is shackled by a rigid caste society, bound to ignore the grim fact that he kills men on a far-off world for the entertainment of his own planet - and bound to keep his rage in check.
But now Michaelson has crossed the line. His estranged wife, Pallas Rill, has mysteriously disappeared in the slums of Ankhana. To save her, he must confront the greatest challenge of his life: a lethal game of cat and mouse with the most treacherous rulers of two worlds.
©1998 Matthew Woodring Stover (P)2012 Audible, Inc.
"Stover's fans and those who like their fantasy/SF tinged red should enjoy this energetic tale." (Publishers Weekly)
"Day of the Jackal meets Lord of the Rings.... A marvelous conspiracy thriller of worlds within worlds, where no one is necessarily who or what they seem." (Simon R. Green)
"Stefan Rudnicki performs with the skill of a master swordsman as he slices through the action scenes. His gravelly tone is perfect for the story as he portrays Caine's controlled wrath and tightly leashed passion." (AudioFile)
"Clever, violent and it has Caine."
I wasn't sure what to expect when I downloaded this title as I'd heard nothing about the author or the series before, which in itself is strange because I'm a voracious reader. Anyway, I took the chance and started listening.
Imagine my surprise then, that as the last few words of the book faded away in my ears, I came to the conclusion that this may have been one of the finest fantasy books I'd ever come across! The narration is simply sublime - every nuance of the characters is brought to life by Stefan's apparent understanding of their motivations.
The sci-fi/fantasy crossover is handled exceptionally well, as are the philosophical musings by the main players of the story (or should I say actors? :-), and the way that the plot unfolds. It might also be able to lay claim to one of the most badass main characters in fiction.
Note that it is brutally violent (seriously, if you are squeamish stay away), has morally realistic characters (there is no good or evil but merely the acts that men, and Gods, do) and some clever plotting that turns most fantasy tropes on their head. Even though is was written more than 10 years ago, it still feels fresher and does more to push the fantasy genre somewhere new than most current authors.
Do yourself a favour, if you fancy some fantasy and are fed up with the current lot (baring maybe Joe Abercrombie), try this out for size. And remember one thing, it's followed up by a block that manages to better it in almost ever way.
Happy ever after indeed!
"dark gritty book"
Not my normally the type of fantasy book I would listen to, usually opting for more classic fantasy like Sanderson, Jordon etc but really enjoyed.
I like the world that had been built and the idea of classes in it, the characters felt very real with proper human feelings none of the hero taking the high road in this.
dark, gritty and a good book...i would recommend
"Everything about this book is Great!!!"
It's a brilliant sci-fi/fantasy epic crossover of a dystopian future (but relatable) where corporations and surrogate entertainment rules humanity and a medieval magic world where the masses loose themselves through the surrogate's adventure!!! Brilliant writing, brilliant story, brilliantly performed. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
A wild ride of a story with spot on narration. Lots of twists and turns in a plot line that keeps you guessing until the end. This story was just so much fun!
"Uncomfortable, but Compelling"
An excellent book, definitely in my top 5.
The closing sequence (which I won't spoil for you) is amazing. I was captivated.
Stefan Rudnicki is one of the best audiobook readers I've ever listened to. This performance does not disappoint.
I found this book gut-wrenching in places, and uplifting in others. The story and the performance combine to make this a totally immersive experience, as you live the highs and lows alongside the characters.
I'd give this six stars, if I could.
"Caine Rocks!"
Enjoyed this story from beginning to end. Excellent plot, fantastic and well thought out characters and just really good story telling. Enjoyed the development of the main characters and the pace and complexity of the story.
"Sci Fi's best kept secret. Utterly brilliant..."
I really thought of myself as an aficionado of science fiction and fantasy, having read many hundreds of books over the years. All those tales consumed, devoured and liked or not in varying degrees. Some titles appreciated because of their original ideas, a good story, some, the fully realised and interesting characters, others perhaps the quality of writing, they have something to say.
Occasionally...Very occasionally you find a book that combines the lot. It becomes a personal classic that you never forget. Enter then, "Heroes Die".
I had never heard of Matthew Stover, but by accident saw some rave reviews on the Amazon.com USA site (check them out).... And then found this version narrated by Stefan Rucnicki on Audible...
Wow! The find of my year. This is a hard hitting, sometimes visceral story combining both Sci Fi and fantasy in a seamless and credible way (something I can't recall being done before). The main characters are superbly drawn and the many action sequences are breathtaking and (be warned) violent. The writing is intelligent and treats the listener as intelligent too. No info dumps here...
Stefan Rudnicki is also the perfect performer for this too. His deep baritone voice resonates in a way that is perfect for the nature of the characters and their quite gripping story. Superb. I will be seeking out more of Mr Rudnicki's prolific work.
In short. Brilliant. Oh, and Ignore the cheesy cover art. It was designed for Americans...
Go on, buy it... it's only one credit!
P.S. I've just finished the next book in the sequence, The Blade of Tyshalle. It's a much darker exploration of the human condition and redemption... Breathtaking.
"Finally, an epic worthy of Stefan Rudnicki"
Ever since the Prince Roger series, I have wondered why Stefan Rudnicki could not be engaged to read another great story. Finally, I think this is one. The story itself is immensely clever and innovative. Stover creatively weaves two worlds and multiple plots together with skill. His prose is excellent, and I particularly admired his ability to place me in the scene with his descriptions and metaphors. The story has twists and turns, with plots, sub-plots, and intrigue layered on intrigue. We get to know Hari Michaelson/Caine very well. If there is a weakness, it's that the other character development suffers a little. Rudnicki is a brilliant reader and wrings everything out the story that there is to be squeezed out. This one is a keeper that I will listen too again. Thanks Mr. Rudnicki and Mr. Stover for a job well done.
"Don't Let the Cover Turn You Off"
I'll be honest, I am swayed a bit by cover art and nearly didn't read this book because I find the cover art cliche, contrived, etc. Based on the other good reviews I went ahead, and I'm glad I did! The development of this world/environment is second to none, bordering on genius. There is really nothing that couldn't be done with the mix of worlds and technology. It has all the fantasy standards, but that's only because the sci-fi setting allows you to dive into that world at will. Rarely have I read a book that succeeds so well at blending sci-fi and fantasy.
So, "awesome environment", check. Now, how about the characters and storyline? I've also never seen such a wide variety of characters in one book (and I've been reading books for a little while now). I won't elaborate here to spoil it, but there is one character (who gets narrated with a very deep voice) that never ceased to amaze and surprise me. Actually, most of the characters were multi-dimensional, gods be praised :)
The storyline has plenty of twists and intrigue without being obtuse. As with all good books nobody is ever who they appear to be a first glance, but that is true in life isn't it? The storyline is probably the weakest part of the whole package, but it is supported so well by everything else that it still works very well.
I've never listened to this narrator before, and each new narrator always takes an hour or so to "get to know". I've never heard a voice with so much timber as Stefan Rudnicki's and found it difficult at first, but it matches very well with most of the characters. One of the characters absolutely required his voice and I actually felt the warm vibrations of this character's voice coming through my speaker!
If you like Jim Butcher, Brandon Sanderson, Joe Ambercrombie, Brent Weeks, and Robert Jordann, (and who doesn't) you will like Matthew Stover.
"Takes a while to understand but worth it"
Okay, first you have to ignore the cover on the book. Not sure if the author lost a bet or something but it's best to just push play.
It took me FOREVER to understand what was happening in this story. Several times I thought there was no way this was the first book in the series because I couldn't grasp any context. Once I accepted it I just moved on and the story got better. It does keep you guessing and the characters are great. I'll give the next one a shot and see what happens.
Enjoyed the narration as well. Not sure if I've listened to Rudnicki before but he really helped make the difference at the beginning when I was trying to decide if I should keep going.
Perfection, Mind-Blowing
What's not to like? This series and this book is just fantastic, Stover builds a world unlike any other then throws you head first into hell and takes you on a journey you can't even begin to imagine at the beginning. This series, especially the second book Blade of Tyshalle, is frankly a masterpiece. He manages to make everything feel real by having real characters and a story that makes you feel every hit, every blade and every piece of magic.
Yes, he does a great job every time.
I have had to many reactions to this book, from pain for the characters, sadness at death and joy for Caines success. This book will grab you and demand you attention.
Buy it.... NOW.... DO IT!
"One of the best series ever."
Equal parts Ernest Hemingway, George Orwell, Robert Jordan, and Geroge R.R. Martin, this is one of the best series of books I've ever listened to. Stephan Rudniki was masterful.
These books have it all. Powerfully written and narrated action sequences, deep philosophical questions, poetic prose, heroes, villains, you name it.
I highly recommend them as credit worthy. I could not stop listnening.
"Rather slow but then...."
The characterization picked up, and made me not want the book to end.
His wife riding the waves of the river.
There a mixture of the humorous and at times the profane. I found myself relating to the characters.
At times I was grossed out by the imagery, and and times I laughed (almost wrecking the car).
I'm looking forward to finishing the series. But I feel for the virgin goats.
"Kick the Series off right!"
Yes, this is one of my favorite novels, but I have less time to read these days.
Nothing really compares to HD. Stover's writing style is unequalled
Rudnicki brought this story to life.
I did have an extreme reaction. At times I just felt so involved in the story that I forgot where I was.
"I got to be caine"
sometimes you kinda live the story. doesn't happen with most books. but this one leaves u spellbind and thinking you are caine.
"An Impressive Start to a unique Series"
I have seen many glowing reviews of this novel and I decided I had to give it a try. I was blown away by the action scenes, plot, setting, and pretty much everything else about this book. Caine is perhaps one of my favorite characters I have ever read about. The book is not short, in fact it could be called long, but there isn't a slow moment in it. All of Stover's characters are well developed and either easy to like or hate. My favorite part of the novel is the action, whitch is detailed, believable, and not jam packed full of magic. It is quite simply knock down, drag out, brutal war. This is why I will say that this novel is not for the faint of heart, along with the action there is plenty of bad language, and nun of the characters are really nice people. The word that best describes the cast is hard, they all have problems and faults, and they won't shy away from a scrap. To complete this review the narrator fits the story perfectly. It is true that he is a bit hard to get use to, but once you do, his voice is what I would imagine Caine's would be. I highly recommend people get this book, it not only is a great story, but it bridges the gap between fantasy and science fiction in a way I have never found before.
"Unexpectedly good"
Great work of combining dystopia with fantasy, though could do with a little less mysticism.

A Commentary on Recent Legal Developments by the Opinions Group of McCarthy Tétrault LLPPosted in Features, The Second Opinion
In a much-anticipated decision released earlier this week that could have implications throughout Canada, the UK Supreme Court revisited and ultimately reaffirmed its venerable decision in Salomon v. Salomon, which recognized over a century ago the separate legal existence of a corporation from its shareholders.

This vegetarian stuffing recipe has come a long way. Originally based on an old family recipe, this has been changed over the years to its current version, much more vegetarian friendly.
If you use a vegan egg substitute, it will be vegan.
- 1 jar of shelled chestnuts (or buy chestnuts raw and cook and shell ahead of time)
- 1 medium onion
- 4 celery stalks
- 1 tablespoon fresh chopped sage – or one teaspoon dried
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves – or 1/2 teaspoon dried
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsely
- 1 cup vegetarian sausage (optional)
- 4 cups chunky bread cubes, about 1 inch cubes, or smaller if you'd prefer
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1 cup chopped mushrooms
- 2 cups vegetable stock
- 2 oz. (2 shots) of bourbon whiskey (optional)
- 2 eggs beaten (optional, will make stuffing more cohesive in texture)
- salt and pepper to taste
- Pre-cook the vegetarian sausage in a pan with olive oil until it begins to brown and remove from heat and set aside.
- Break up the chestnuts with your hands into pieces.
- Make sure all the other ingredients are prepared (chopped, etc).
- In either a very large skillet or a soup pot, heat up the olive oil, and then add the onion, celery and mushrooms. Cook over medium heat, while stirring often, until they become tender, about 5 minutes.
- Add in the broken chestnuts, parsley , sage and thyme, and cook about 1 more minute, mixing everything in the pan together.
- Add the cubes of bread and stir.
- Add the vegetable broth, and get the bread cubes wet, stirring everything.
- Add Bourbon.
- Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Remove from heat and mix in eggs, if desired.
- Put mixture into a baking dish, and place uncovered into a preheated to 350 F. oven and back for about 25-40 minutes.
- The stuffing should develop a light crunchy top, when it is done.
Yes, even vegetarians can have delicious chestnut and sausage "stuffing". Just don't stuff it, right?

Review: The Mistress of Nothing by Kate Pullinger
Pages: 248
Source: Publisher
'The Mistress of Nothing' was a riveting tale. Sally's parents died when she was young, her aunt chose not to care for her and sent her to work. Both she and her sister began working as maid's for well to do women. Sally eventually begins working for Lady Duff Gordon. When Lady Duff Gordon is stricken with tuberculosis she is exiled to Egypt, accompanying her is Sally. Lady Duff Gordon is hoping the dryer, warmer weather will be favourable for her condition, making it easier to breath and prolonging her life. The story takes place mostly in Egypt, and a new life begins for both Sally and Lady Duff Gordon.
Sally sees herself as a spinster, although she doesn't know when chose to have no future. She is now thirty and not married, devoted to Lady Duff Gordon and believes that she will always be her protector. Eventually, Lady Duff Gordon and Sally are forced to unfasten their constricted english clothing and settle for lighter, cooler Egyptian clothing. The two of them become accustomed to life in Egypt, adapting to the lifestyles and language. Omar is hired to help the ladies, and teach them the ways of life in Egypt. Sally falls in love with married Omar. Sally is sure that Lady Duff Gordon will continue to protect her, since she has helped many in her situation before. Omar has decided he will marry Sally, as Egyptian law will allow him two wives. Fellow Egyptians are not scandalized, they are accepting of Sally. What happens next is not expected.
I was engrossed in this riveting historical novel. As always historical novels make me curious, and I will do a little more research on Lady Duff Gordon. The story did not end how I wanted it to, but that does not make it less of a novel. The writing is astounding. The story picks up pace around the second half. I mostly read it in one day, I could not put it down. Highly recommended! The Governor General award is well deserved and justified in my opinion.

You've certainly made me curious about this book! Great review!ReplyDelete
When they're well written, historical novels make me curious too. I'll have to check this one out.ReplyDelete
This sounds good! I don't think I've heard of this before but it went to my wishlist.ReplyDelete
I always love a good historical novel and this one sounds like a fab one! I need to check it out.ReplyDelete
Glad you enjoyed the novel. I read it a couple of years ago and was pleasantly surprised by it.ReplyDelete
I remember seeing this one and wondering if it was worth the GG award. Happy to hear that it was well merited.ReplyDelete
You should look up "Letters From Egypt" - Lady Duff's side of the story (although she doesn't really focus on Sally). I was heartbroken for Sally - such devotion to be cast aside with such carelessness. This was a wonderful readReplyDelete

The Avon Pest Control Difference
Even in the most pest proof homes and properties, mice infestation can still occur. In fact, rats have a way to congregate in warm and arid areas , which results in fast breeding and infestation that can cause a range of health issues for loved ones and domesticated pets. Rats and mice also carry rabies and other infectious diseases, which can be transferred to humans and domesticated pets via bites. Their droppings are equally unsanitary, and can result in mite and tick infestation as well. With this in mind, Avon Pest Control completely analyzes and assesses your rodent infestation with true tact and precision. We check home foundations, basements, crawlspaces, and entire structures (interiors and exteriors) for signs of mice and rat infestation. This includes gnawed pieces of wood and fencing, which is a sure sign that these critters have invaded your home or business.
Professional Mice and Rat Control
Avon is committed to excellence in all rat and mice control services. In fact, we truly go those extra miles to make sure infestation does not occur again. While we will do everything in our power to rid your home of rats, mice, and other pests – there are ways you can prevent infestation from happening as well. This includes not leaving any open food containers, crumbs, or debris on countertops or cabinets. Mice and rats are attracted by open food – and can seriously contaminate your snacks with their saliva and droppings. The same also goes for cereal boxes and other foods that are left out in the open. If you value your health and that of your loved ones, simply keep all containers sealed and we will handle all the rest. Also, let us know if you hear scratching, gnawing, or other unusual sounds throughout the day or night. This is definitely a sign that your property is experiencing a rodent problem.

Do you bruise easily? I do. Physically, my body responds to bumping my hip on an end table or letting a door slam on my calf with a vibrant black and blue mark. You should've seen me after I tried skiing for the first time this year. I couldn't wear a skirt to a job interview because the marks were so bad – even with tights.
I may complain about my sore bruises or sigh about how rough they look, yet oddly enough I find something beautiful about bruises. I feel the same way about each of my scars, stretch marks, cuts, and burns. Unwelcome as they may be, each one boasts of a moment, a memory, a time when I was alive and living life to the full. They are like my own private memoir – reminding me of who I am, what I've done, and where I've seen the Lord at work.
Obviously marks and cuts affect our physical appearance, but there's a reality of bruising that permeates much deeper than our skin . . .
We know we are called to love one another – verses like 1 John 4:20 are pretty clear about that:
If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen1 John 4:20
Not only are we called to care for the widow, the orphan, and the stranger (Deuteronomy 10:18-19), but we are asked to go above and beyond when it comes to doing life with the people the Lord puts around us:
And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain. Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away. Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you.
Matthew 5:41-44
Engaging in relationships, genuinely listening to the journey of another, caring for one another cultivates an inner beauty that reflects the image of Christ.
Jesus entered into people's lives with depth, authenticity, and sincerity. The cuts and bruises Jesus accumulated because of these relationships weren't merely the physical ones that were part of being crucified on the cross. There were wounds inflicted by those who were Jesus' friends that penetrated His heart.
The inner beauty gained from doing life with one another is often a result of bruises, cuts, and scars from being betrayed and mistreated, yet continuing to love anyway. Because we're not perfect, our brokenness plays a part in how we care for one another. Sometimes engaging in relationships can feel like getting close to a fire – the closer you get the warmer and more beautiful the embers become, yet the likelihood of getting burned also increases. The deeper we allow ourselves to live out the call of loving one another, the more exposed our soul becomes and the more bruises it accumulates as a result.
Just like our physical body bears the evidence of, scrapes, bruises, and scars – because it tells the story of a life that has been utterly lived – so too our soul carries its fair share of hurts: the very things that make it beautiful.
Don't be afraid to find the inner beauty that comes with giving yourself 100% to loving, caring for, and walking alongside those in your life. There might be additional burns and cuts as a result, but know that it is part of the process of becoming more like Christ.

Ashes sledges
Oli Burley is ready for some flak after overlooking some classics in his top 10 Ashes sledges as he looks at some of the top verbal sparring between Australia and England.
Last Updated: 04/06/13 6:46am
Here at Sky Sports we love a bit of banter so agreeing on our favourite Ashes sledges was never going to be easy. But as we build towards this summer's series we've had a go at pulling together ten of the best verbal spats.
Let us know what you think of our selections.
Shane Warne, Australia
"You got an MBE, right? For scoring seven at the Oval? That's embarrassing." Warne couldn't resist a little dig at Paul Collingwood in the final Test of the 2006/07 Ashes after the all-rounder had picked up a gong for being part of England's victorious 2005 squad. It rang true for many including Geoffrey Boycott who was far from impressed with the award, complaining it devalued his own OBE. For the record, Colly contributed 17 at the Oval.
Fred Trueman, England
"Don't bother shutting it, son, you won't be there long enough." It's all in the delivery, as 'Fiery' proved whether bowling or taking the mickey. The paceman couldn't resist this jibe at an incoming Aussie batsman as he trotted through the gate and out onto the hallowed Lord's turf. Self-deprecation is one thing - how often do you hear cricketers say "I'll be back in a minute"? But to be put down by England's premier strike bowler? That must hurt.
Nasser Hussain, England
"Look, I don't mind the others chirping at me but you're just the bus driver of this team. So you get back on the bus and get ready to drive it back to the hotel this evening." Our Nass was in the zone during the 1997 Ashes and not just with the bat as this retort to Justin Langer proved. The diminutive opener was chirping away after entering the fray as a substitute for Jason Gillespie in the first Test at Edgbaston when he got this volley. Nass scored 207 and didn't have to bat again as England won by nine wickets.
Ian Healy, Australia
"Let's have you right under Nasser's nose," quipped wicketkeeper Ian Healey, while placing a fielder several yards away from the bat during a warm-up game between England and Queensland at Cairns on the 1998/99 tour. Good, but probably not Heals' best. "Put a Mars bar on a good length. That should do it," he once said to Shane Warne who was trying to lure Sri Lanka skipper Arjuna Ranatunga out of his crease. Tasty stuff.
Barmy Army
The heady days of 2005 inspired some delicious fare from the Barmy Army but as a put down "You're only good at swimming", heard at the Oval as England headed towards victory in the series probably tops the lot. Only the previous summer an Ian Thorpe-inspired Australia had helped themselves to 15 medals in the pool at Athens, including seven golds, while Great Britain's sum tally was two bronzes - one apiece for Stephen Parry and David Davies. But when it came to defending the Ashes, the Aussies were out of their depth.
Dennis Lillee, Australia
Few, if any, batsmen chuckled when Lillee flew into bowl but anyone capable of walking out to bat with an aluminum bat and keeping a straight face as the ball 'pinged' off it - as Lillee did in 1979 - must have a keen sense of humour. It came to the fore in 1994 during a warm-up match between England and an ACB Chairman's XI, when faced by a rather rotund Mike Gatting, Lillee said: "Move out the way, Gatt. I can't see the stumps". Lillee picked off Mike Atherton and Graeme Hick cheaply in the game while Gatt finished 16no as England won by seven wickets.
Derek Randall, England
The Centenary Test of 1977 was memorable for so many reasons - some appalling batting early on, brilliant fielding and a 45-run margin of victory for Australia that matched that of 100 years previously. Derek Randall stole the show with a glorious 174 and fortunately had no trouble recalling his innings despite being hit on the head by Lillee. But as he explained at the time, "It's no good hitting me there, mate, there's nothing to damage".
Bill Voce, England
While we're on the subject of physical pain, the Australians can't say they weren't warned ahead of the 1932/33 series in which England attempted to nullify Don Bradman by deploying 'bodyline' fast bowling tactics. "If we don't beat you, we'll knock your bloody heads off", Voce told Vic Richardson at the start of hostilities. "Well bowled, Harold!" Douglas Jardine reportedly said after Larwood had pummeled Bill Woodfull in the chest during the third Test at Adelaide. No quarter given, then.
Allan Border, Australia
Opponents don't come much tougher than Border, who spent much of the 1989 series with an icy expression on his focused face as he sought to erase the pain of 1985 and 1986/87. Robin Smith gave him the perfect invitation to vent his spleen during the Trent Bridge Test, when the Judge requested some light refreshment while at the crease. "What do you think this is, a tea party?" said Border. "No you can't have a glass of water. You can wait like all the rest of us." How times have changed!
Robin Smith, England
Smith was a popular fellow in 1989, it seems. At Lord's Hughes became increasingly irate as Smithy played and missed at a few, prompting the mustachioed bowler to suggest the Judge couldn't bat. Smith responded by clattering Hughes to the boundary and replying: "Hey Merv, we make a fine pair. I can't bat & you can't bowl." Take that and party. Talking of knees-ups, Hughes once said to Athers "I'll bowl you a piano. Let's see if you can play that." Sharp.

On Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, being the 26th, 27th, and 28th of February, 1690
And in the Second Year of Their MAJESTIES Reign.
THE Sessions of Peace, Oyer and Terminer, and Gaol-Delivery of Newgate, held at Justice-Hall in the Old-Baily, on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, being the 26th, 27th, and 28th days of February, 1690. Before the Right Honourable Sir Thomas Pilkington Kt. Lord Mayor of the City of London, and Mr. Recorder, with several others of Their Majesties Justices for the City of London, and County of Middlesex.
The Jurors were as follows
London Jury,
Middlesex Jury,
The Proceedings were these:
Elizabeth Deacon , Wife of Francis Deacon , of the Parish of St. Michael Woodstreet Whipmaker, was arraigned and tried for the murther of her Servant maid one Mary Cox , aged about 17 years . The Tryal lasted very long, and abundance of Witnesses were called for the King, amongst which were two Apprentices, viz. Edward Newhall , and Thomas Albrook , &c. The former of which declared, that, on Monday the 20th of January last, his Mistris found the Maid to have a Shilling about her, and demanded how she came by it? The Maid confest at first, that she had one 6d. of one Mrs. Baker, and the other of one Susannah Middleton ; which her Mistriss being doubtful of, she ty'd her to the Beds-post, and whipt her very sorely, and on Wednesday following she deny'd it. Upon which, her Mistriss grew extreamly enraged at her, and struck her two or three Blows with a Whip, and proceeded further in her passion, even in causing him to tye her to the Beds-post, where she whipt her in a most violent manner, until the cry'd out Murther. To prevent which, her Mistriss stopt her Mouth with her Hand, but then on the Saturday following, she tyed her Neck and Heels, and afterwards tyed her to the Beds post, burning her with the Fire-Poker upon the Neck, Shoulders, and Back, after a most inhuman manner, and then gave her a Blow on the Head with a Hammer, until she made her confess to have been confederate with some Thieves who intended to Rob her Master's House while he was at Bristol Fair. Then she had the Maid before a Justice on the next Monday, being the day before she dyed, where she confessed the like, &c.
After which, her Mistriss grew careless of her; For when she fell sick upon it, she would not let her have those Accommodations that were fit for a person in that deplorable Condition, but was heard to say, Hang her, Hang her; And that if she had not confest, she would have kill'd her. She could no ways be prevail'd upon to take any pity upon her Servant, nor give her any sustenance: But, on the contrary, cry'd out, Who can do any thing for such a Wretch? Telling them, that she had the Pox, &c. The Surgeon said, that the Stripes and Wounds did contribute towards her Death, together with a Surfeit she had taken before.
The prisoner strived to Extenuate her Crime, saying, That her Maid had wronged her several times, by making away her Goods, and Money, and had Conversation with a parcel of Thieves, and was a Girl of a very sullen, obstinate, temper; and the reason why she Whipt her, was, for opening her Dressing-Box. She called some Witnesses, who gave a favourable account of her former Education, but none that could contradict or invalidate the King's Evidence; only one of them said, that the Maid complained of a stoppage at her stomach, and a great pain in her head, before she was so used; and that she surfeited her self by eating Ice Cakes, and Apples, &c. all which did not avail her any thing; but the Jury looking upon the Heinousness of the Fact, brought in her guilty of wilful Murther.
[Death -respited for pregnancy. See summary.]

TNA will tape iMPACT episode tonight, tomorrow night and Wednesday in Orlando. As noted before, a proposal from the Jarretts to Kurt Angle has been announced for this week's iMPACT as well as Hernandez, Sarita and Rosita vs. Velvet Sky, Angelina Love and Matt Morgan in a Street Fight.
A fan asked Mickie James on Twitter this morning if Jeff Hardy was drunk last night at Victory Road or not. She replied: "Oh shit.. Thanks for reminding me.. *Puts mojito down* better go to work!"
The man who ran in the ring during last night's Matt Morgan vs. Hernandez match at TNA's Victory Road was reportedly former OVW Heavyweight Champion "The Lowrider" Matt Barela. He may be being brought in to work with the new Mexican group that appears to be forming with Hernandez, Sarita and Rosita.

I've felt off my game with the past two Ditto DIY challenges because of lack of time and/or having completed projects that I was able to "recycle". But I knew once the August challenge was announced last month that my recent garage sale purchase would help me get back in the game!
The challenge for August was to add a classy pattern to a trash receptacle. I found this guy for $.50 with the tag still on while garage sale shopping with my daughter and mother-in-law:

The lovey-dovey public relationship between Oprah Winfrey and the President and Michelle Obama is a mirage, according to a new book that says first lady badgers the TV giant for favors and makes the fellow Chicagoan feel "jumpy."
In his latest political book, "Blood Feud: The Clintons vs. the Obamas," best-selling author Edward Klein also reveals that "Oprah feels slighted by the Obamas" but would walk on hot coals for Bill and Hillary Clinton, who she is eager to help in a 2016 presidential election.
Klein writes: " 'I have a much warmer relationship with Hillary than I do with either Michelle or Barack,' Oprah said. 'The Clintons make me feel at ease 100 percent of the time. But even when the Obamas think they are being charming, they hold you at arm's length. They make me jumpy, even when the obviously don't mean to.' "
Klein, whose critical book about Obama, "The Amateur," was best-seller, writes in his new work that the first lady and top aide Valerie Jarrett are needy. "Being with them over a period of time can be tiresome," he quotes Winfrey saying.
"They're always badgering you for something," wrote Klein on page 261. "I've spent much of my life fending off powerful and not-so-powerful people who want things from me. But these two women are something else again. They're walking agendas. Their wish list never stops."
As a result, he concludes, Winfrey "feels slighted." He quotes a friend of Winfrey who said that the Obamas "have been incredibly thoughtless in the way they have treated her. It's been unfair and hurtful."
But he described a different relationship with the Clintons, explaining that she has been open to their efforts to win her endorsement in 2016, even as Vice President Joe Biden also woos Winfrey's support should he run for the presidency.
Quoting a Clinton insider, Klein writes, "Bill and Hillary have both had long talks with Oprah. They've made it clear they're planning a run for the White House and would appreciate her support. They want her to do for Hillary what she did for Obama in his first campaign in 2008. They think her support is worth a million votes, and maybe more. Hillary says she's convinced that Oprah is going to come on board."
