This application is a Continuation-In-Part of copending application Ser. No. 11/415,707 filed May 2, 2006, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
This invention relates to a process for producing hydrocarbons useful as diesel fuel from biorenewable feedstocks such as plant oils and greases. The process first involves a pretreatment step to remove contaminants such as alkali metals contained in the feedstock followed by hydrogenation, decarboxylation and/or hydrodeoxygenation and optionally hydroisomerization in one or more steps.
As the demand for diesel fuel increases worldwide there is increasing interest in sources other than crude oil for producing diesel fuel. One such source is what has been termed biorenewable sources. These sources include plant oils such as corn, rapeseed, canola and soybean oils and greases such as inedible tallow, yellow and brown greases. The common feature of these sources is that they are composed of triglycerides and Free Fatty Acids (FFA). Both of these compounds contain n-paraffin chains having 10 to 20 carbon atoms. The n-paraffin chains in the tri-glycerides or FFAs can also be mono, di or poly-unsaturated.
There are reports in the art disclosing the production of hydrocarbons from oils. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 4,300,009 discloses the use of crystalline aluminosilicate zeolites to convert plant oils such as corn oil to hydrocarbons such as gasoline and chemicals such as para-xylene. U.S. Pat. No. 4,992,605 discloses the production of hydrocarbon products in the diesel boiling range by hydroprocessing vegetable oils such as canola or sunflower oil. Finally, US 2004/0230085 A1 discloses a process for treating a hydrocarbon component of biological origin by hydrodeoxygenation followed by isomerization.
Applicants have developed a process which comprises a pretreatment step, and one or more steps to hydrogenate, decarboxylate (and/or hydrodeoxygenate) and optionally hydroisomerize the feedstock. The pretreatment step removes contaminants that can poison the downstream catalysts.
A process for producing a hydrocarbon fraction from a biorenewable feedstock comprising passing the feedstock to a reaction zone; contacting the feedstock with a catalyst at reaction conditions comprising a temperature of about 200� C. to about 345� C., a hydrogen partial pressure of about 1034 kPa (150 psi) to less than 2000 kPa (290 psi) and a liquid hourly space velocity of about 0.5 hr−1 to about 2 hr−1 thereby deoxygenating the first effluent stream and providing a reaction product comprising a hydrocarbon fraction comprising n-paraffins.
Prior to reacting the feedstock in the reaction zone, the feedstock may be treated to at least partially remove contaminants by contacting the feedstock with either an acidic ion exchange resin or an acid solution in a pretreatment zone.
This and other objects and embodiments will become clearer after the following detailed description of the invention.
As stated the present invention relates to a process for producing a hydrocarbon stream useful as diesel fuel from biorenewable feedstocks. The biorenewable feedstocks that can be used in the present invention include any of those which comprise primarily tri-glycerides and free fatty acids (FFA). Examples of these feedstocks include but are not limited to canola oil, corn oil, soy oils, inedible tallow, yellow and brown greases, etc. As further stated the tri-glycerides and FFAs contain aliphatic hydrocarbon chains in their structure having 10 to 20 carbons. Another example of a bio-renewable feedstock that can be used in the present invention is tall oil. Tall oil is a by-product of the wood processing industry. Tall oil contains esters and rosin acids in addition to FFAs. Rosin acids are cyclic carboxylic acids. However, these biorenewable feedstocks also contain contaminants such as alkali metals, e.g. sodium and potassium, phosphorous as well as solids, water and detergents.
Although the feedstock can be processed, i.e. hydrodeoxygenated, to hydrocarbons, without any prior treatments, it is preferred to pretreat the feedstock in order to remove as much of these contaminants as possible. One pretreatment step involves contacting the biorenewable feedstock with an ion-exchange resin in a pretreatment zone at pretreatment conditions. The ion-exchange resin is an acidic ion exchange resin such as Amberlyst�-15 and can be used as a bed in a reactor through which the feedstock is flowed through, either upflow or downflow. The conditions at which the reactor is operated are well known in the art and include a liquid hourly space velocity (LHSV) of about 0.5 to about 2 hr−1, a temperature of about 21� C. to about 100� C. and a pressure of about 172 kpa (25 psi) to about 3447 kPa (500 psi).
Another means for removing contaminants is a mild acid wash. This is carried out by contacting the feedstock with an acid such as sulfuric, nitric or hydrochloric acid in a reactor. The acid and feedstock can be contacted either in a batch or continuous process. Contacting is done with a dilute acid solution usually at ambient temperature and atmospheric pressure. If the contacting is done in a continuous manner, it is usually done in a counter current manner.
Yet another means of removing metal contaminants from the feedstock is through the use of guard beds which are well known in the art. These can include alumina guard beds either with or without demetallation catalysts such as nickel or cobalt.
The purified feedstock from the pretreatment zone, herein referred to as a first effluent stream, is now flowed to a reaction zone comprising one or more catalyst beds in one or more reactor. If more than one catalyst bed is used, the first catalyst bed will contain a hydrogenation catalyst with which either the first effluent stream or the raw feedstock is contacted in the presence of hydrogen at hydrogenation conditions to hydrogenate the olefinic or unsaturated portions of the n-paraffinic chains. Hydrogenation catalysts are any of those well known in the art such as nickel or nickel/molybdenum dispersed on a high surface area support. Other hydrogenation catalysts include a noble metal catalytic element dispersed on a high surface area support. Non-limiting examples of noble metals include Pt and/or Pd dispersed on gamma-alumina. Hydrogenation conditions include a temperature of about 200� C. to about 300� C. and a hydrogen partial pressure of about 345 kPa (50 psi) to about 2758 kPa (400 psi), and a LHSV of about 1 to about 5 hr−1. Other operating conditions for a hydrogenation bed or zone are well known in the art.
The hydrogenation catalysts enumerated above are also capable of catalyzing decarboxylation and/or hydrodeoxygenation of the first effluent stream or feedstock to remove oxygen. Decarboxylation and hydrodeoxygenation are herein collectively referred to as deoxygenation reactions. Deoxygenation conditions include a relatively low hydrogen partial pressure of about 1034 kPa (150 psi) to less than 2000 kPa (290 psi), a temperature of about 288� C. to about 345� C. and a liquid hourly space velocity of about 1 to about 4 hr−1. In a multi bed system, deoxygenation will take place in the second bed or after the last hydrogenation bed.
Since hydrogenation is an exothermic reaction, as the first effluent or feedstock flows through the catalyst bed, decarboxylation and hydrodeoxygenation will begin to occur. Thus, it is envisioned and is within the scope of this invention that hydrogenation and deoxygenation occur simultaneously in one bed. If only one bed is used, then hydrogenation occurs primarily at the front of the bed, while deoxygenation occurs mainly in the middle and bottom of the bed. Finally, if desired hydrogenation can be carried out in one reactor, while deoxygenation can be carried out in a separate reactor. It is preferred to carry out hydrogenation and deoxygenation in one reactor.
As will be shown in more details in the examples, it is surprising that the biorenewable feedstocks can be converted to hydrocarbons at such low pressures. It has been surprisingly found that carrying out the process at lower pressures decreases the amount of hydrogen used because decarboxylation is favored over hydrodeoxygenation. It is also surprising that the catalyst remains stable over an extended time period. It is usually the case that catalysts deactivate rapidly at lower pressures. Running the process at lower pressures also has an economic advantage because compressors to pressurize the hydrogen are not needed. Further, the vessel and other equipment cost is reduced because operation is at lower pressures.
It is also an embodiment of the present invention that the biorenewable feedstocks can be mixed with a petroleum fraction either prior to flowing it to the reaction zone or in the reaction zone itself. If the biorenewable feedstock is first treated to remove contaminants, it is mixed with the petroleum fraction after this pretreatment. The petroleum fraction can be any of those hydrocarbon streams which are routinely processed using fluidized catalytic cracking (FCC) technology and which are well known in the art. The amount of petroleum fraction which can be added can vary widely but is usually between 5 and 80% by volume.
The reaction product from the reaction zone will comprise a liquid portion and a gaseous portion. The liquid portion comprises a hydrocarbon fraction which is essentially all n-paraffins and have a cetane number of about 100. Although this hydrocarbon fraction is useful as a diesel fuel, because it comprises essentially all n-paraffins, it will have poor cold flow properties. If it is desired to improve the cold flow properties of the liquid hydrocarbon fraction, then the entire reaction product can be contacted with an isomerization catalyst under isomerization conditions to at least partially isomerize the n-paraffins to isoparaffins. Catalysts and conditions for isomerization are well known in the art. See for example US 2004/0230085 A1 which is incorporated by reference. Isomerization can be carried out in a separate bed of the same reaction zone, i.e. same reactor, described above or it can be carried out in a separate reactor.
Whether isomerization is carried out or not, the final effluent stream, i.e. the stream obtained after all reactions have been carried out, is now processed through one or more separation steps to obtain a purified hydrocarbon stream useful as a diesel fuel. As stated above, the final effluent stream comprises a liquid and a gaseous component. The liquid and gaseous components are separated using a high-pressure separator well known in the art. The gaseous component comprises mostly hydrogen and the carbon dioxide from the decarboxylation reaction which can be removed by means well known in the art such as absorption with an amine, reaction with a hot carbonate solution, pressure swing absorption, etc. If desired, essentially pure carbon dioxide can be recovered by regenerating the spent absorption media.
Finally, a portion of the purified hydrocarbon stream and/or the carbon dioxide free gaseous stream can be recycled to the inlet of the reaction zone where hydrogenation primarily occurs and/or to any subsequent beds/reactors to control the temperature rise across the individual beds.
The following examples are presented in illustration of this invention and are not intended as undue limitations on the generally broad scope of the invention as set out in the appended claims.
Several experiments were conducted to test hydrogenation/decarboxylation catalysts both in a batch mode and a continuous mode. The feeds used where either a soybean oil feed (Aldrich) or a crude tall oil feed (Weyerhauser) and the catalysts were obtained from UOP LLC. Table 1 presents the results from these experiments.
A crude vegetable oil fraction (obtained from Cargill) was processed by placing 50 gm of Amberlyst�-15 into a 100 cc column. To this there were added 25 gm of the Cargill crude vegetable oil. This was followed by an additional 50 gm of crude. The treated solution and feed solution were analyzed for net content and the results are shown in Table 2.
Several experiments were carried out according to Example 1 to determine the effect of pressure on activity and catalyst life. The results are presented in Table 3.
Operation at lower pressures is expected to cost less because the hydrogen makeup gas compressor could be eliminated since hydrogen is typically available from other sections of a refinery plant at about 2413 kPa (350 psia). Lower cost reactor vessels are also possible since they can be fabricated with thinner walls because of the lower pressure requirements.
From the results it is observed that low pressure operation gives almost the same level of conversion as high pressure operation. Obtaining the same conversion at lower pressure can be obtained by slightly decreasing the space velocity to obtain 100% conversion. More decarbonylation is occurring in the low pressure case as indicated by the ratio of nC17/nC18. Normal-C17 is formed by decarbonylation+decarboxylation whereas nC18 is formed by hydrodeoxygenation. Interestingly as the catalyst ages the level of decarbonylation+decarboxylation increases at low pressure whereas at higher pressure it decreases as the catalyst ages. The hydrogen consumption remained the same in these experiments regardless of pressure.
The most important result of these experiments is that the catalyst does not severely deactivate at lower pressures so that by running the process at lower space velocity one should be able to easily compensate for the deactivation rate at the lower pressures. Conventional wisdom suggests that the catalyst would deactivate rapidly at low pressure. However, these experiments surprisingly show that the catalyst still has good activity after 1000 hours on stream at lower pressures.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Maxim buys Thunder Bay company
A Winnipeg trucking company has put an important pin in the map with its latest acquisition.
Maxim Truck & Trailer has purchased C.C. Poulin Equipment Limited in Thunder Bay, Ont., for an undisclosed sum.
Adding the International brand truck dealer for northwestern Ontario fills out the company's truck and trailer sales and service offerings from Montreal to Vancouver, said Doug Harvey, Maxim's CEO.
"In our business, and you're seeing it on the car side, too, it's hard to compete on volume buying and parts with the single-dealership-in-one-town model," he said.
-- C.C. Poulin president Dan Poulin
"We're working on increasing our footprint. We're a service-oriented company. We want to service the one-truck owner in one town and also increase our network so we can service those customers in multiple provinces."
To show that if you hang around in business long enough, anything can happen, Harvey said he owned the Thunder Bay operation until 1990, when he sold it to the Poulin family.
C.C. Poulin, which has 30 employees and annual revenue of $12 million, will continue to operate under its own name until Oct. 31, at which time its systems and branding will switch over to Maxim.
Dan Poulin, president of C.C. Poulin, as well as his brothers, Dale (service manager) and Darrin (parts manager) have signed contracts to stay with Maxim for at least five years.
Dan Poulin said his family had been talking about a succession plan for some time and when Harvey, who is a good friend, said in early 2013 he might be able to help with that, the deal was set in motion.
"It took a long time and a lot of effort. We're pleased that Doug was able to take all of our employees and there was no disruption to their benefits or wages. That was very important to us. There are so many ways to transition a company and many of them are not good for employees," he said.
Maxim has a few other irons in the fire. It is spending $3 million to build a finishing shop and manufacturing facility for specialty trailers at its Arne's Welding division, a local manufacturer of trailers for the resource industry.
It has also purchased land in Edmonton and will start building a 60,000-square-foot Summit Trailer retail dealership, including parts, service and sales, next year.
Also in the last year, it bought a majority interest in Tereck Diesel Ltd., a repair shop in Winnipeg's east end.
Maxim, which has more than 800 employees and annual revenue of more than $300 million, has 19 locations across the country, including five in Winnipeg. It also owns two Summit Trailer outlets.
Harvey owns 90 per cent of Maxim with the remainder held by Cliff Kolson.
Harvey said he has never considered taking the company public.

The problem is that this stuff is much stronger than the benzocaine condoms so you can also potentially use too much and lose the feeling in your penis temporarily! Ignorance is bliss they say. However, do you find this practical when you read so much about Premature Ejaculation?
At least, there is no scientific explanation for herbal creams. Anesthetics These are the better class of creams. Always look for an active ingredient ending in "-caine". This indicates that a medical grade anesthetic is in use. Make the best use of life by learning and reading as much as possible. read about things unknown, and more about things known, like about Prevent Premature Ejaculation.
The sprays tend to work better than the creams. You can get a spray which you can use as much or as little of as you want, within the specified safety limits, of course. life is short. Use it to its maximum by utilizing whatever knowledge it offers for knowledge is important for all walks of life. Even the crooks have to be intelligent!

I didn't tell my GF, but she's very curios about my new skils!!!!

Marc Maron — news from the garage
Comedian Marc Maron once compared the Internet to the CB radio craze of the 1970s, saying that neither amounted to much more than some weirdo broadcasting banalities from his backyard shed. Now, Maron is that man in the shed. Maron, who has a new CD out, "This Has to Be Funny," performs Friday at Seattle's Neptune Theatre.
Special to The Seattle Times
On the Internet
Listen to Marc Maron's podcast: http://www.wtfpod.com
Marc Maron9 p.m. Friday, Neptune Theatre, 1303 N.E. 45th St. Seattle; $19 (877-784-4849 or www.stgpresents.org).
Comedian Marc Maron once compared the Internet to the CB radio craze of the 1970s, saying that neither amounted to much more than some weirdo broadcasting banalities from his backyard shed.
Now, ironically, some 16 years later, Maron is that man in the shed. His bi-weekly show, "WTF," one of the top-rated comedy podcasts on iTunes, is broadcast from his Los Angeles garage.
"There was no Internet when I started," said Maron, speaking over the phone three weeks ago. "Obviously it's evolved and you have to adapt and engage with it."
Maron, who has a new CD out, "This Has to Be Funny," performs Friday at the Neptune Theatre.
Before his podcasts, Maron's career as a comedian and liberal talk-radio host on Air America had hit a plateau.
"They ran out of money and fired me a few times," Maron said of his time hosting "Morning Sedition" and "Breakroom Live."
In 2009, Maron started "WTF," sneaking into the Air America studios after-hours.
The format of the show is simple: Maron interviews A-list comedians such as Robin Williams, Chris Rock, Conan O'Brien and Louis C.K., as well as a slew of lesser-known comedians and comedy writers whom Maron has met in his 25 years on the comedy-club circuit.
Maron is good at getting his guests to open up. Carl La Bove, perennial opener for the late Sam Kinison, divulged on the show that Kinison was the father of Bove's daughter.
Maron is a shining example of how comedians have embraced the Internet and social media to reach fans outside the comedy-club scene. He posts excessively on twitter (@marcmaron) throughout the day and promotes both the podcast and his stand-up gigs on Facebook.
"A lot of the people that are coming to my shows are telling me that this is their first comedy show," Maron said.
Much of Maron's stand-up is informed by an unfiltered inner dialogue. (On "Never Not Funny" he confesses he has long conversations with his cats.)
But he is also political, and unflinchingly liberal in his views. His interview with prop-comic Gallagher ended abruptly when Maron accused Gallagher of being racist and homophobic.
On the other hand, the left is not immune from Maron's criticism.
"They're relatively humorless, a lot of times they're righteous and a lot of the time they're hypocritical," Maron said.
Who is Maron to criticize? He's just a guy who talks to his cats and does a podcast from his garage.

The Lion in Winter, Theatre Royal Haymarket - review
Related Articles
Published: 16 November 2011
Robert Lindsay and Joanna Lumley are evidently enjoying themselves in this revival of James Goldman's 1966 play, which is best known in its film version starring Peter O'Toole and Katharine Hepburn.
The chemistry between them is satisfying. But the writing, for all its verve and seasonal spirit, feels glib.
It is 1183, and Henry II (Lindsay) is considering the future of his kingdom. His choice of successor, at least on past evidence, would be Prince John, who in Joseph Drake's interpretation comes across as a whining schoolboy and certainly lacks the necessary authority, even if he bubbles with ambition.
Henry's wife Eleanor of Aquitaine, who has been in prison for a decade, has other ideas. She favours moody and manly Prince Richard (Tom Bateman). Neither considers Prince Geoffrey (James Norton) and it looks as if he will have to grub around for a subsidiary position.
The wranglings that result are at times amusing. We are meant to gather that despite the gap of more than 800 years, these 12th century dignitaries are much like us. That is questionable but it is the occasion for some lively, flippant comedy that has more than a whiff of Blackadder about it - while also recalling the feverish tensions of sitcom.
Goldman made no secret of the play's limited fidelity to history, conceding that it contained "anachronisms in speech, thought, habit, custom and so on". Yet it is not exactly faithful to the norms of human relationships either.
The politics of family life are conveyed mainly through set pieces. There are zingy lines ("What shall we hang - the holly or each other?", asks Henry) but the ironies and rhetorical switchbacks do not afford much sense of either character or dramatic urgency.
Lindsay cuts a dash. It is not the first time he has played Henry II, having portrayed him 20 years ago in Becket. Here he is charismatic and fluent.
Lumley does a very fine job of undercutting her regal diction with a far-from-queenly demeanour and there is convincing support from Drake,
Bateman and Norton, as well as Sonya Cassidy and Rory Fleck-Byrne. Trevor Nunn directs unfussily and the design by Stephen Brimson Lewis
is elegant.
Yet while The Lion In Winter is an inoffensive star vehicle, funny enough to sustain interest, it is hard to see why it warrants a revival.

Nice fabric but proportioned funny
Elizabeth G.
- Familiarity: I returned this product before using it
- Fit: Runs small
These were what I was looking for as far as lightweight and wicking for warm climate hiking, but they do not fit properly. Every pair of pants in my closet is an 8. These fit normally in the thigh, but I could barely button them. I don't wear fashion pants this tight let alone hiking pants! If I got a bigger size, I'm afraid they'd be too big in the hip/thigh area, so back they go. Disappointing.
great pants
- Fit: True to size
Columbia has come through again with pants that are comfortable and fit very well. Do be aware that these pants are a very light weight fabric. Going to need to wear tights underneath to wear them in fall.
So good I bought another pair
Mary S.
- Gender: Female
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
I love this pant. I just bought my second pair in the other color. They are very lightweight for summer, easy for traveling (more comfortable than jeans) and good for summer hiking when you want some leg protection. They fit well, a little tighter than my same size Columbia shorts, but very comfy. I rated them true to size. They are not at all tight as one reviewer stated but I can't wear the "curvy" styles so if you are big in the hips, take note of that. I am also enjoying the versatility with the roll up legs. They look quite stylish actually.
These pants have no quality feel and the sizing seems off. I bought the same size as all of my other outdoor pants from Mtn Hardware and REI and yet these pants just fit funny.
Jeff Kendall
These are built to be a lighweight pant that offers sun protection with out adding warmth. it was also shaped to drape and not restrict.
if this wasn't the fit, try the Just Right, Silver Ridge,or Back Beauty... in increasing sturdiness of fabric
I just bought a pair for my wife. The pants are beautiful but I will be returning them because the fit across the abdomen/crotch is very tight. The rest of the garment fits fine but the fit from the crotch on up seems to be designed for someone two sizes smaller!

In Focus: Corruption in cricket
Players/Officials: Danish Kaneria | Mervyn Westfield
Series/Tournaments: England Domestic Season
Teams: England
The Professional Cricketers' Association and ECB will continue to insist that all players, including short term overseas signings, undergo anti-corrupotion education - even though the three-month amnesty to report match-fixing has produced nothing of major significance.
Players arriving on short-term deals for the Friends Life t20 represent a major remaining obstacle in the education programme set up by the PCA and ECB in the wake of the Mervyn Westfield trial. Westfield pleaded guilty in January to spot-fixing while playing for Essex. He was sentenced to four months in prison but released on licence last week after serving half the sentence.
Every professional cricketer in the country has been required to work through an online tutorial. Overseas players have been given a two-week period after arriving in the country to complete it but the PCA has encouraged counties to arrange for players to fulfil the obligation before they arrive.
The Westfield trial prompted the ECB to open an amnesty window for confidentially reporting information about corruption. The window closed on April 30 with the ECB and PCA satisfied with the progress made in tackling corruption.
Current and former players came forward with information but nothing of major significance has been discovered. "All of this information has been managed in confidence and has given us a clear picture of the nature of the threat our game faces from corrupt activities," Chris Watts, the ECB's anti-corruption officer, said. "The absence of a significant number of new reports is reassuring but the access unit will rigorously review any report of alleged corruption."
Angus Porter, chief executive of the PCA, said the amnesty window "had not uncovered a can of worms" but said it has served a greater purpose. "More importantly we've taken the opportunity to remind people of their duty to report incidents without delay. It's been helpful as part as a general process of education."
Essex, Westfield's former county, were criticised for their reaction to the incident which occurred in September 2009 but was not reported until early 2010. They were accused in the trial at the Old Bailey for "turning a blind eye" to corruption by defence counsel Mark Milliken-Smith QC, a criticism they later dismissed as unjustified.
"We've been working closely with the Essex lads," Porter said. "We've all come an awfully long way since 2010. The emphasis of our discussions with them has been to acknowledge that they did the right thing in coming forward as they did."
The PCA remains undecided on whether to use Westfield as part of its future education programme. He and former team-mate, the Pakistan international Danish Kaneria, who was named during the trial as the man who groomed Westfield for corruption, are the subject of an ECB disciplinary hearing on May 21.
The hearing has been delayed to allow Kaneria's lawyers more time to prepare their defence. Kaneria has not yet confirmed whether he will attend the hearing in person.

Book Description
A heart-warming debut about finding out what love and life is all about.
Millie Bird (aka Captain Funeral), seven-years old and ever hopeful, always wears red gumboots to match her red, curly hair. Her struggling mother leaves Millie in a local department store and never returns.
Agatha Pantha, eighty-two, has not left her house or spoken to another human being since she was widowed seven years ago. She fills the silences by yelling at passers by, watching loud static on the TV and maintaining a strict daily schedule.
Karl the Touch Typist, eighty-seven, once used his fingers to type out love notes on his wife's skin. Now he types his words out into the air as he speaks. Karl is moved into a nursing home but in a moment of clarity and joy, he escapes.
A series of events binds the three together on a road trip that takes them from the south coast of WA to Kalgoorlie and along the Nullarbor to the edge of the continent. Millie wants to find her mum. Karl wants to find out how to be a man. And Agatha just wants everything to go back to how it was.
They will discover that old age is not the same as death, that the young can be wise, and that letting yourself experience sadness just might be the key to life.
Read Caroline Baum's Review
This anticipated debut has already been sold into twenty one countries and seems destined to be one of this year's big favourites. It's a truly original and charming story originating in the author's own tragic loss at the early death of her mother. She's translated her own grief into a fantasy fable that asks big existential questions with a very light touch.
When seven and a half year old Millie's father dies, her mother leaves her in the underwear section of a department store. Precocious in her thoughts and actions, Millie decides to go and look for her. At which point she collides with a very shouty woman called Agatha Pantha who has not left her house since her husband died fifteen years ago. And then there's Karl, an eighty-seven year old touch typist who has escaped his nursing home with a plastic mannequin as a companion.
They are an unlikely trio, causing confusion wherever they stumble but Davis protects them from ridicule with finely judged sensitivity, even while she pushes the narrative into unconventional and quirky territory.
About the Author
Brooke Davis grew up in Bellbrae, Victoria, and attempted to write her first novel when she was ten years old. It was genre-busting foray into the inner-workings of a young teenage girl s mind Anne of Green Gables meets The Baby-Sitters Club meets Are You There God? It's Me Margaret titled Summer Sadness. Fortunately it remains unfinished, as she quickly realised she didn't know the first thing about sadness, or being a teenager.
Lost & Found is her first proper novel, and she was lucky to write it as part of a PhD at Curtin University in Perth, Western Australia. She still lives there (in Perth, not at university), and is sometimes allowed to work at a very nice bookshop nearby. Much to Brooke's surpise, Lost & Found proved to be the buzz book of the 2014 London Book Fair. The translation rights have since been sold into sixteen countries and major deals have been confirmed in the United States and Great Britain.

Comments about Lost & Found:
This is an interesting book about loss and grief. It is delightful in the way it brings together three main characters, who are isolated and marginalised from mainstream life. They are suffering with the loss or death of their most beloved relationships. This book highlights that in grief, we can be quirky and do things that are soothing for us, and yet to outsiders we may seem a little crazy. My clients (I am a Grief Counsellor) have reported that they feel gently supported by this book, and it normalises their own thoughts and feelings. I like the way Brooke speaks the "unspokens" about grief. It especially supports the fact that most people will have a healthy "continuing bond" with their deceased loved ones, and that is more than ok! Also, it shows how for every bereaved person there is some way to make meaning of their life once more; everyone has their own time frame, to learn to live again, to find a new way of living. This novel is backed up by Brooke's diligent research into contemporary approaches to loss, bereavement and grief, from both literary and theoretical perspectives.

Little Millie what a lovely character she is.. Every 8 year old girl with golden-brown hair I look at reminds me of Millie!!
Agatha and Karl the touch typist both of them very quirky. This story is about how 3 strangers get introduced and travel across the arid Australian roads in search of Millie's mom. Who apparently abandoned her!! Not cool I say!! By the end of the day its a lovely story and very well written...will makes you laugh and tear up a bit!
Defiantly a must read ..

I thought I was going to get something that was reasonably plausible but in the end I got something that struck me as quite fanciful.
This book has been seriously hyped/marketed but didn't deliver to the expectations.

Comments about Lost & Found:
I was eagerly anticipating this release and maybe that is part of the problem. Often much anticipated activities/books/parties are not what we expect which creates disappointment, and that is certainly the case for me with this book.
I have really struggled to work out what it is about this book that I didn't enjoy. I think it may be the writing style which I found to be impersonal and lacking warmth. Or perhaps it is the characters who I truly struggled to make any connection with (of the three I only really liked one of them). Or maybe it is the lack of resolution that the story ends with. Or it could be the truly implausible events that happen during the story, which even my ability to suspend disbelief found difficult to overcome.
The premise is great, although very sad. Three very different people are dealing with tragic loss in their lives and when their paths cross they embark on a journey together. This journey could have been so wonderful, and it is full of quirky and at times amusing happenings, but the characters feel like they don't really connect with one another - they remain three individual people just doing the same things at the same time (and even when the author writes of a connection it doesn't read true or feel real). Perhaps this is because of the way the story alternates between narrating the points of view of each character as they move through the journey. And when I say they move through the journey I mean physically, it doesn't feel like they move much emotionally, even though when I look back I know that the author implies that there is character growth and change, it doesn't feel that way when you read it.
I guess maybe part of my issue was that I was expecting to be moved by the subject matter in a way similar to the way I was moved by 'The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry' and I wasn't moved at all. This book isn't in the same league as Harold Fry and if you are reading this review and you haven't read that book yet, I would recommend you try it first.
Overall, I found this book lacking in warmth, resolution, character development, connection and thus ultimately lacking my enjoyment. I would not give this to a friend to read as there are so many other wonderful books out there. As mentioned previously, try Harold Fry, or if you are looking for a book by an Australian author that will make you laugh and make you cry and move you completely try 'Walking on Trampolines' by Francis Whiting.

Hi everyone
Here is a link to the Red Cross Appeal for the victims of the New Zealand Earthquake.
The city of Christchurch in New Zealand which has many people from the UK and their relatives living there, has been devastated by a powerful earthquake. So far there are 98 dead with that figure expected to climb into the hundreds. Other people are still buried under buildings and rubble. Over 80% of the city is without water and power. Any donation you give will help the people of Christchurch in their hour of need and will be gratefully received.
Please email your friends with this link.
Thank you to you all.
By now you may know that A large group from the entertainment and business sectors have begun work on a Global Telethon for Christchurch. The intention is for it to be a multi-channel broadcast, and a sign of national unity that brings focus to the widespread but disparate fundraising efforts that are taking place throughout the country.
Because of its international nature, Telethon for Christchurch is also designed to open up a major new source of funds for Christchurch – Kiwis living overseas – inspiring them to work together with Kiwis at home, towards a common goal.
Please click attending if you'd love to help, from $2 to getting your whole company or school involved. Then invite everyone you know on Facebook and from your email database. Together we can make a real difference in the lives of those effected by this terrible disaster.
The date is tentatively set for Easter Sunday, April 24th. The broadcast would also be live streamed globally, allowing us to access the hundreds of thousands of New Zealanders living overseas who are feeling frustrated in their inability to do something to assist the New Zealand effort. In this sense, it truly would be a Global Telethon.
Funds collected would be managed by a charitable trust (The Telethon for Christchurch Trust) established by Lowndes Jordan and audited by Ernst & Young.
Money would be funneled directly to the PM's initiative, The Christchurch Earthquake Appeal.
Staff from CTV have asked to be involved and would form a core team of the telecast.
We believe the fundraising capacity of this Global Telethon will be in the tens of millions of dollars, bringing together as it does the compelling influence and fundraising capacity of all New Zealanders, both abroad and at home who are feeling frustrated that they cannot do more. More importantly this Global Telethon will help heal a nation.

Video: Coaches Spoelstra, Rivers talk about Game 1
May 29, 2012, 10:48 AM EDT
Boston has some changes to make after getting handled easily in Game 1. Doc Rivers talks above about taking away the layups Miami got — the Celtics players talked about being more physical. What Rivers really needs to do is find a way to get more points on the board because this isn't Philadelphia and 79 points will not have you in the game now.
Erik Spoelstra plays it safely right down the middle of the fairway with an iron off the tee — we respect them, we haven't proven anything yet, they are a championship team that will be hard to beat.
- canehouse - May 29, 2012 at 11:51 AM
Spo is correct… Boston is a tough veteran team that has enough weapons to steal a game in Miami and if Rondo gets going they are very tricky… but with that being said if Miami and specifically Wade and Lebron continue to perform at the level they have been both offensively and defensively they should take the C's down in 5.
- decimusprime - May 29, 2012 at 12:02 PM
It's best for him to "play it safe" right now. If he shows to much overconfidence or not enough, he risks planting the "if I dont take the last shot I can't be blamed for missing." seed in LBJ'S fragile mind. Way to go coach.
- southbeachtalent - May 29, 2012 at 1:04 PM
Make sense much?

...Romans 8:14>we all can be a jesus... sulfur based microscopic parasites live in mud critters>cattle,pigs,catfish,founder,etc. and is the hell referred to by "jesus" because cooking doesn't kill them(worms)..."their worm does not die and the flame is not quenched" is said of people in hell...and today's grocery store meat is also packed full of chemicals...only ocean fish doesn't have chemicals added and the jesus symbol is the fish with scales,but not bottom dwelling fish in the die-t
...this is how i because a "jesus" then a "god" in my own temple and kingdom and then a co-creator as i remembered i/we are spirit within that created the religious concepts...die-t and manna will get you to jesus state,then maintaining the 2 keys with the 3rd key will get you to a godlike state in your temple and your kingdom and then into our co-creator spirit within state...these keys i/we give to everyone....the bible is also metaphors of our ego traits freewill,humility,pride,desire and vanity to hang upon our cross and die to as humility at the head of the cross cry's out for the creator...pride and vanity are nailed together at the feet as free will and desire are nailed at the hands...the statute of liberty has 7 points in it crown because of the 2 sides of the brain,pineal gland,pituitary gland,thalamus,cerebellum and medulla...the torch symbolizes the pineal gland lit like a burning flame... the 8th brain part that all together form the divine feminine...and the bible is also about our 6 senses..
PS as "gods" code book gave us the diet and manna ,we must supply the other 3 keys of an open mind ,an open heart and positive thinking/attitude to produce the 5 pointed star of venus the morning star to rise in our hearts..after maintaining that, the 6 pointed star of 3 points above and 3 points below will be given making us a co-creator in our temple and kingdom...(((here's an recent edit ,the longer i have used the keys i remembered we are all co-creators with the same shared spirit and our spirit existed before the creation making us co-creators instead of gods,goddesses,saviors or prophets,

Health law will be implemented, most say in poll
It still divides us, but most Americans think President Barack Obama's healthcare law is here to stay. More than 7 in 10 say the law will fully go into effect with some changes, ranging from minor to major alterations, a new Associated Press-GfK poll finds. Only 12 percent expect the Affordable Care Act—"Obamacare" to dismissive opponents —to be repealed completely. The law—covering 30 million uninsured, requiring virtually every legal U.S. resident to carry health insurance and forbidding insurers from turning away the sick—remains as contentious as the day it passed more than two years ago. There's still more than another year before its major provisions go into effect on Jan. 1, 2014.
