Consider These Oil Stocks In Place Of BP
Bill is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Oil spills happen and governments and environmentalists respond. And they should respond since these events are very nasty. The net result for stock investors is that issues and regulation are becoming a bigger part of the energy business.
As investors we have to ask if companies seeing increasing legal and regulatory pressure are sufficiently cheap enough that we would ignore these hurdles. If these stocks are not cheap enough, then investors we should refuse to buy them.
BP Ban and is Competitor Boon
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency imposed a temporary ban on BP (NYSE: BP) from new U.S. government contracts after BP pleaded guilty to criminal charges pertaining to the Gulf of Mexico oil spill two years ago. This disaster killed eleven people and grew into the worst environmental disaster in U.S. history. BP claims it has since adopted stringent standards for deepwater drilling which exceed regulatory requirements.
In a plea bargain deal with the Justice Department, BP agreed to pay $4.5 billion to resolve securities claims and end all criminal charges related to the Gulf explosion. BP's lawyers did not anticipate any government bans. The suspension will put a mark on BP's record and may give an edge to its competitors for future federal contracts. Tommy Beaudreau, the Interior Department's Bureau of Ocean Energy Management Director, said, "That suspension applies only to new contracts with the federal government."
This ban is a big deal. Bloomberg data revealed BP as the biggest petroleum supplier for the Defense Department, capturing about $1.35 billion in contracts in 2011 and $1.02 billion in 2010.
Under a ban, BP won't be able to bid on two planned auctions for Gulf drilling next year. Washington-based Project on Government Oversight general counsel Scott Amey said, "If I were a competitor, I would definitely play the suspension up." The Defense Department may source more fuels from its other suppliers: Kuwait National Petroleum, Valero (VLO), Chevron (NYSE: CVX), and Royal Dutch Shell (NYSE: RDS-A).
BP is engaging the EPA in hopes that it can lift the suspension and the company hopes that a resolution can be reached by the first quarter of 2013. Not everyone thinks this is likely: Public Citizen's Energy Program Director Tyson Slocum feels that BP should be banned for five years, the probation's duration received in connection with the plea bargain. For comparison, a suspension imposed by the U.S. Air Force on Boeing in 2003 was lifted by 2005.
Which company could be banned next?
Oil and gas operations are enormous and sometimes lead to spills and disasters. This is not a problem unique to BP or to Exxon. Yes, companies can try to be safe, but ultimately these operations involve flammable resources in the wilderness.
Most recently, the U.S. Coast Guard is observing Royal Dutch Shell's floating oil drilling ship, Kulluk, that ran aground December 31st on the coast of Sitkalidak, a remote Alaskan island about 60 miles southwest of the town of Kodiak. Due to difficult weather conditions, authorities did not send people to board the rig.
These harsh Arctic weather and sea conditions are the reasons why environmental groups had been calling for the federal government to stop drilling in the Arctic Ocean. Shell had been fighting lawsuits from environmental groups like "The Wilderness Society" in its efforts to drill for oil in the Arctic Ocean and has already invested $4.5 billion in offshore leases and equipment.
Initial Coast Guard inspection flight over the rig showed no visible signs of a spill. The Kulluk contains around 139,000 gallons of ultra-low-sulfur diesel and 12,000 gallons of hydraulic fluid and lube oil on board. Winds of over 70mph and 40-foot swells are hampering about 250 personnel involved in the salvage operation.
No drilling operation was involved when the grounding incident happened, thus no threat of a crude oil spill should be expected. In a statement released January 3rd, Shell said, "We quickly mobilized experts to respond to this situation. The Shell emergency response assets and contingencies that were deployed over the last four days represent the best available in the world." After drilling in the Beaufort Sea off the coast of Alaska, the Kulluk was en route to Seattle for repairs when Shell's towing vessel Aiviq reported that its line to the Kulluk was cut in heavy seas. Aiviq subsequently recaptured the floating rig but the former also went adrift, its engines stopped running due to contaminated fuel, forcing Kulluk's crew to evacuate as a precautionary measure.
Another Shell ship, the Nanuq – equipped to contain oil spills – has joined the Aiviq in towing the Kulluk. The company has mobilized available resources and dispatched two more ships, a tug named Guardsman and a 47-foot skimming vessel named Klamath, to help in the recovery efforts.
Shell and the U.S. Coast Guard both promised to inquire on why the tow boat lost control of the rig. The company's Operations Manager for Alaska Sean Churchfield said, "There will be an investigation into the cause of this incident once we have the situation under control."
Shell canceled its Alaskan drilling operations in September due to damage in a dome designed to capture underwater spill. With its other drilling vessel – the Noble Discoverer – due for repairs, the company's plan to resume drilling after the ice melts later this year, may not push through.
Nobody wants these disasters to happen, but they sometimes do. It is foolish to think that they couldn't happen to any energy company with large operations.
Many energy companies are cheap:
BP is cheaper than most of the stocks on this list when considering price-to-earnings, price-to-sales, and price-to-book multiples. Even better, there are plenty of alternative stocks that are similarly attractive and have not been banned by the U.S. government. For this reason, investor should consider Royal Dutch Shell and Hess (NYSE: HES) instead. Hess trades at a low price-to-book ratio and a low price-to-sales ratio. Royal Dutch Shell trades at a low price-to-earnings ratio and a low price-to-sales ratio. There is no reason to choose BP since these other energy companies are cheap based on valuation and have not been banned.

Complete forecast by
Text size:
Projects proposed in Moline and East Moline are among 54 across Illinois to receive federal funding. Gov. Pat Quinn and Illinois Transportation Secretary Ann Schneider on Wednesday announced $1.9 million in Illinois Transportation Enhancement Program funds is destined for East Moline to build the Union Trail segment of the Grand Illinois Trail, and $742,830 is headed to Moline for streetscape improvements on Avenue of the Cities, from 34th to 41st streets. Nearly $50 million in ITEP funds was distributed,according to a news release from Gov. Quinn's office. The funds are intended to develop alternative transportation options, the release said. Funded projects included bike paths, walking trails, historic preservation andstreetscaping. The federal funds are awarded competitively, and any local or state government with taxing authority can apply. Local matching funds are required, and work must begin on the projects within three years, according to the release. Pat Burke, Moline's economic development manager, said the streetscaping is an extension of the improvements completed a couple of years ago on Avenue of the Cities between 27th and 34th streets. Improvements may include stamped concrete sidewalks, decorative streetlights, planters and benches. No road work will be done, as the road was recently rebuilt, he said. Mr. Burke said the earliest work will start in 2014. Details on the Great River Trail bicycle project in East Moline was not available on Wednesday. For the current round of funding, the Illinois Department of Transportation received 328 applications with nearly $327 million in requests, according to the release. This year IDOT will begin awarding the funds annually instead of every two years. "This major investment in community transportation projects throughout Illinois will help improve the quality of life for everyone," Gov. Quinn said in the release. "These projects will create hundreds of jobs while preserving our heritage, beautifying communities and creating new transportation options across our state for pedestrians,bicyclists and others."

Narrow your search
Overstock's chief executive tells Reuters he expects the site to do $1 million in bitcoin sales per month by the end of this year.
Overstock.com announced last Thursday that it would be undercutting Amazon book prices by 10 percent. Not to be outdone, Amazon matches the prices...on some titles.
The two retailers are trying to convince a New York judge that forcing them to collect state sales tax is unconstitutional.
Internet retailer resurrects old Overstock.com brand for Web site and ads "for now" following customer confusion, its president tells AdAge. But Overstock says switching to the O.co brand is still a goal.
The two online retailers have lost their appeal to avoid collecting sales tax in New York state.
The US Supreme Court deals Amazon and Overstock a blow, declining to hear a case that appeals New York's law that forces online retailers to collect sales tax.
Company is asking the New York State Supreme Court to declare the new law unconstitutional.
E-tailer says it has no choice but to comply with new law starting June 1. But Overstock.com opts to cut off 3,400 N.Y.-based affiliates to avoid obligations.
Through a deal with a company called E4X, the discount retailer--previously only in the United States--will be accepting orders and shipping to 34 new countries.
Stop the presses! Overstock has the refurbished top-end Nook for a full $60 off the newly lowered price of a new one. And you still get a one-year warranty.

Tuesday evening the Shelby County School Board declared Memphis City Schools will cease to exist officially on Monday, July 1.
The school board approved that date to go along with the end of the fiscal school year.
Some board members, though, wanted the end date to be the start of the 2013-14 school year. Others wanted the end date to coincide with the terms of the Memphis School board members in September.
In the end, the majority of the board was in favor of MCS ending with the budget year.
MCS attorney Dorsey Hopson was also approved by the board to take over as superintendent for the district on interim basis after Dr. Kriner Cash leaves in February. Hopson will serve until the district dissolves after the conclusion of the 2012-13 school year.
It was also revealed at Tuesday night's board meeting that a charter school recommended for closure will get a second chance.
MCS recommended revoking the charter of Memphis Academy of Science and Engineering (MASE). The administration cited declining enrollment and low performance, but leaders at MASE said they purposely lowered enrollment numbers and say it was judged unfairly on performance because it is a combined middle and high school.
The board decided to give the school another chance and voted to renew MASE's charter for another 10 years.

Create color scale that prints well on grayscale printers
Watch this File
The function color_scale creates a color scale, or colormap, that is approximately uniform perceptually on both a color display and on a grayscale printer. The color scale is computed using the L*a*b* color space. It follows a uniform ramp along the L* direction, and it follows a semicircular path in the a*-b* plane.
The function color_scale_tool launches a GUI that allows you to experiment easily with different input parameters for color_scale.
For more information about these functions, see my image processing blog posting, http://blogs.mathworks.com/steve/?p=57
This file inspired Bipolar Colormap and Perceptually Improved Colormaps.
applycform clips colors to the gamut.
How does applycform deal with colors outside the RGB cube? Certainly when you have lightness at 0 or 100, and non-zero chroma, these values cannot be reproduced by RGB. I've tried to implement a variation of this in Python (https://gist.github.com/endolith/5342521/) and it works pretty well, but you don't seem to do anything to limit the range of the colors.
I do not have image processing toolbox, so I cannot really run this code. But I give the submission a 5 based on your excellent post. It was really useful for me to learn more on how to work in Lab space. I modified the code snippet in your post and combined with cline and colorspace to display L plot using the resulting RGB color:
% radius = 50;
% theta = linspace(0, pi/2, 256).';
% a = radius * cos(theta);
% b = radius * sin(theta);
% L = linspace(0, 100, 256).';
% Lab = [L, a, b];
% RGBhlx=colorspace('RGB<-Lab',(Lab));
% figure; cline(a, b, L, L,RGBhlx); view(3);
Take a look at 'colorGray' which has similar functionality but with "rainbow" like color spectrum.

Top Chef Star Fabio Viviani Gets Sexy with Quaker Oats
Written on February 15, 2013 at 5:25 pm , by Samantha Shelton
A bowl of oatmeal for breakfast is…sexy? When Fabio Viviani is serving it, we like to think so. Which is why he's the star of Quaker's new video in support of the American Heart Association's Go Red for Women movement. And on the day of love (Valentine's Day, in case you missed it), we had to get a piece of this Italian's mind. Here's his take on breakfast, and what you should be doing to spice up your love life.
Tell me about this steamy video! What made you want to get involved?
It's a good cause. If you've followed me in the last few years, then you know I'm all about good food and what's good for you. As a chef, it has to be tasty. And well, let's be honest, sometimes something that's good for you is not necessarily delicious. But oatmeal is! So when I was approached by the Go Red for Women movement with Quaker Oats, it was perfect – we're talking about food, breakfast and ladies – it was a good fit.
Whose idea was it to make it a funny, sexy video?
The good news is that it's easy for me to make things steamy because I have an accent! But if I'm going to do a video, it's got to be funny – food is fun!
Are you a breakfast lover yourself?
When I came to the United States, I learned to love it. Back in Italy, I didn't really have it a lot. Now I like oatmeal and I like to make things different. Breakfast is something that can really change a lot about your day. We always talk about making the right choices, and something as easy and small as breakfast being done in the right way is huge.
Other than as a standard bowl for breakfast, how do you use Quaker oats?
It's a staple for breakfast, absolutely. But I also use oatmeal powder as a thickening agent instead of using gelatin and other chemical-filled things when I work in the kitchen. I make an oatmeal gelato that is delicious.
Healthy eating is clearly a big part of strong heart health. What strategies do you like to follow?
You're talking to an Italian guy, so you're never going to hear me say drop carbs or meat! A balanced diet is the one that makes you happy while keeping you healthy. Being miserable is not healthy; it's stressful. So I try to balance my diet with a lot of vegetables and good protein, but it's OK to have steak once a week or so. Fish, in general, is good too. Maybe avoid tilapia because it's really fatty, but others are great. And risotto – I love risotto! I'll eat it any day of the week. I mean that, sometimes I've done it. And I'll cook it in red wine instead of broth.

"The 2009 Martha's Vineyard is an impressive wine with remarkable clarity and depth of flavor. The enticing dark garnet color of this Cabernet softens and elongates as you tilt the wine glass to see the translucence of the hue on the edges. Its classic, clean mint aroma evokes a smile in recognition of an old friend. On the palate, layers of complexity show an opulence of fruit, smoothly integrated with the core tannins of a slightly cooler growing season. This is a beautifully focused wine with textbook varietal character. The overall vibrancy of this Cabernet promises strength and balance that will carry forward for many years of enduring enjoyment – a true treasure from the Oakville appellation within the Napa Valley."

What was your biggest obstacle or frustration during your years of conventional education?
I want to know how to make the next generation better, so after telling me your issue or obstacle, I am also curious to hear how you would translate that into some small change or action that can grow outward from a single classroom to a school and then further.

Astra Singh 30+Mar 20 2012: One of many was certainly the incident where the class was given the, at that time, standard 'school career test'. I was 16, the year before graduating from High School. The teachers were confused with my results, which indicated a broad interest across the spectrum of subjects instead of, what they were used to, a clear preference for either A studies (anything not B) and B studies (Medicine or at least Engineering).
Since they didn't know what to do with me I wasn't bestowed the attention, support and direction the other, especially B, students were given in information on opportunities for further studies. I was on my own. Besides being branded as weird for not having one clear-cut interest it resulted in a lifelong quest for 'What is that one thing I'm supposed to be best at?'
So, although it resulted in a very interesting ride so far, the change I would like to see is: Teachers being better equipped and educated in guidance of students with regard to career choice.
Mar 20 2012: Astra, that would not be my biggest obstacle at that time but since you mentioned it I found that counseling in the Italian school system was very very very bad. Just like you I had "potential" in all of the subjects we used to study and I ended up by choosing something I had never ever heard of before. But the question "what should I do when I grow up" is still haunting me....and I guess I fully qualify for grown up now.

SPRINGFIELD, N.J., June 19, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Hudson Robotics announced today the release of a new white paper on Multi-Channel Pipettor performance.
Photo - http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20140618/119394
"Maximizing the Precision and Accuracy of a Multi-Channel Pipettor to Optimize Inhibition Data from a Kinase Assay" can be viewed at http://www.hudsonrobotics.com/products/liquid-handling/solo/#Literature
Multi-Channel Pipettor precision is crucial in any assay test. In order to maximize Multi-Channel Pipettor performance, researchers at Hudson Robotics ran a series of tests to determine optimal settings for obtaining reliable inhibition data from a Kinase Assay.
ADP-Glo is a universal kinase inhibition assay that measures the amount of ADP generated. The assay is best run at the five microliter scale and consists of three components added in one and two microliter additions.
The actual pipetting method employed greatly affects the precision of low volume transfers, and a number of pipetting methods were examined using a gravimetric technique developed to measure these effects. Additionally, attaching the pipettor's head to Hudson Robotics' proprietary motion control increases its precision by an order of magnitude.
Hudson Robotics, a leader in microplate automation, laboratory robotics, liquid handling and customized software-driven solutions for life-science research, developed a robot to control the movement of a standard multi-channel manual pipettor. The unit can be connected to a computer system through a USB-to-serial convertor, and is controlled by SoloSoft software.
The company's new white paper is the outcome of Hudson's work to develop an automated protocol for running Promega's ADP-Glo kinase assay that includes a range of liquid transfers from 1 to10uL.
"Our research revealed the most precise settings for Multi-Channel Pipettors," notes Alan H. Katz PhD, Chief Scientific Officer of Hudson Robotics. "We're very pleased to be able to share our findings with the scientific community and to be able offer the most precise, accurate Multi-Channel Pipettors for optimizing inhibition data from kinase assays."

Many individuals have tried a host of remedies in an attempt to soothe their digestive tracts, but some still have an issue with gastric distress1-4—with resulting discomfort along the delicate lining of the esophagus. A novel solution is now available in the form of what scientists call raft-forming alginate. This blend of all-natural ingredients in Esophageal Guardian provides a totally unique approach to protecting esophageal tissue against harsh stomach acids.
The mechanism behind Esophageal Guardian involves the formation of a temporary physical barrier—or raft—between the stomach and the esophagus.5 The secret to this technology is what happens when alginic acid and potassium bicarbonate come into contact with gastric acids. Alginic acid forms a gel and potassium bicarbonate produces bubbles that get trapped in that gel—producing a floating foam layer that sits above the contents of the stomach.5
Immediately, two other natural ingredients in this formulation— calcium carbonate and magnesium carbonate—react with the stomach acid to create lift in the foam and make it firmer.5 Clinical studies show that this temporary foam barrier provides maximum support for delicate esophageal tissues.5,6 Also, the carbonate and bicarbonate in these ingredients help neutralize stomach acid.5
This protective foam barrier develops less than a minute after two natural berry flavor tablets of Esophageal Guardian are chewed and swallowed. Yet the relief it provides lasts up to 4 hours.5 Quite simply, Esophageal Guardian Natural Berry Flavor delivers the fastest-acting, longest-lasting, and most advanced technology available to support delicate esophageal and stomach tissues against gastric distress.

Works well, but too much gas
This products works well but contains xylitol and mannitol which gives me gas and cramps. I wish Life Extension would reformulate the product without the sugar alcohols.

Comments about Life Extension Esophageal Guardian, 60 chewable tablets:
I was dubious about the product, but it does alleviate the after-eating distress I sometimes experience.I was taking the recommended 2 tabs, but I think I will try reducing to one and see how that works. If you don't chew it and swallow it immediately, it does start to foam a bit in your mouth. I notice a little "puff" of something when I first bite into it, too. It's not offensive, just noticeable. The taste isn't bad, either.I use it with large meals; I don't necessarily use it daily. But when my stomach is feeling crabby, it really does help. I wouldn't stop using any of my other meds or measures for my GI issues... but this is a very useful adjunct in my case.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Shortage by client demand
By HansMassage
from Longbranch, WA
See all my reviews
Due to my spinal condition I sometimes fail to make enough acid and my esophagus fails to close off. This can often produce acid erosion at night and foul smell during the day.Some of my clients have similar problems on my table. When the experience relief they demand one of my bottles. So now I will have to reorder.

Not User Friendly
By BH
from Austin, Texas
This product works, make no doubt about it. However, as you begin chewing the large tablet, the contents begin to foam such that it becomes difficult to swallow for me. After it goes down I was a bit concerned as there was an extremely full feeling such that I couldn't take anything else if I needed to. The full feeling subsided in about an hour. My hope would be that further testing be done to be sure it wasn't just my system reacting oddly.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Sorry, but it didn't work!

Tried the product according to directions . It did not work for my wife because it formed a block before she could swallow it.

You will need to have a glassful of water ready immediately after chewing in order to effectivly swallow the product.

Superintendent Dale Hansen said he is "pretty excited" to add preschool classes at Questa.
"There's a huge need for 3- to 5-year-old services," Hansen said. "The rooms will fill up fast (with students)."
Hansen said the site will have two modular buildings, each containing two classrooms with a kitchen and four bathrooms, to house about 24 students in each classroom.
Nichols Melburg & Rossetto of Redding is designing both the preschool and the future Mountain House high school.
According to Wesley King, a senior architect at the firm, workers will break ground Monday to dig utility trenches, and foundations for the modular buildings will be set in the beginning of November.
He said the buildings are being fabricated at the factory, and both are expected to be delivered and installed Dec. 10.
Each preschool building consists of seven 10-foot-wide pieces that will be put together at the site to create 30-foot-by-70-foot buildings, King said. Each building is going to be placed on school property at a designated gravel area near the adjacent park soccer field. A preschool playground will be built after the buildings are erected, he said.
The overall cost is $1,310,730, King said, $776,930 for the buildings and $533,800 for the site.
District officials say the preschool has been in the works for two years.
"I think it's a good project, something that Lammersville School District and Mountain House can really benefit from," said school board member David Pombo. "There's a lot of working families in Mountain House that need someplace to send their kids — their options in Mountain House are somewhat limited. We had one at Wicklund (School), and our vision is to have a preschool at every campus."
Fellow school board member Ben Fobert said that as a father of six children, he knows the challenge of finding a good preschool.
"A lot of families have two parents who work and it's really hard to get kids in preschool and day-care programs," he said. "(It will) offer special-educational services in the district that is needed in the community as it grows — getting a lot of young families."
The preschool is slated for completion Jan. 25.

TEAMS: Washington Redskins
During a Q&A session with the media on Tuesday, Baylor quarterback Robert Griffin III said that Rex Grossman is the starting quarterback of the Washington Redskins and he'll have to compete with him in order to become to win the job.
"I have to go in and prove it to them. You can't come in thinking that you're a big-dog. I might be the second pick, I might be who the fans want as a quarterback and the coaches want as a quarterback but I've still got to go beat out Rex Grossman… Rex Grossman is the quarterback in Washington right now and I've got to go beat him out. I've got to prove to those guys that I'm there to work and I will, it's who I am. I'll be the first one in, last one out and it won't be a cliché with me."
With the way Grossman has played in Washington over the past couple of seasons, it won't be long before Griffin proves that he should be the Redskins quarterback this coming season.

MADISON, WI (WTAQ) - About a dozen state Assembly members plan to tour the place where Gogebic Taconite says it would open a new iron ore mine – if legislators vote to make it easier to do so.
Freshman Assembly Republican Mary Czaja of Irma in Lincoln County is organizing the tour, which is set for tomorrow. Her office said Czaja toured the site a few weeks ago, and she thought other lawmakers would benefit from seeing the area.
Six Republicans and six Democrats plan to make the trip – and they'll pay for the trip themselves.
The GOP in both houses is pushing to create a deadline for approving state mining permits – loosening environmental rules – and limiting public challenges to the DNR's mining decisions.
The bill's chief sponsors agree that changes will be made to a package that was unveiled last week.
There's no timetable for a vote on the measure.
Legislative leaders hope to get it done in the spring.
