Apache Plans Balnaves Field Development Offshore Western Australia After Appraisal Well Tests 9,076 Barrels of Oil, 13 MMcf of Gas Per Day
Oct 14, 2010, 08:45 ET
HOUSTON, Oct. 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Apache Corporation (NYSE, Nasdaq: APA) said today that three successful wells appraising the Balnaves-1 discovery in License WA-356-P offshore Western Australia will trigger development planning by subsidiary Apache Julimar Ltd Pty.
Balnaves is an oil accumulation in the Mungaroo formation in a separate reservoir beneath the large gas reservoirs of the Brunello gas field. The recent Balnaves-3 appraisal well test-flowed 9,076 barrels of oil and 13 million cubic feet of natural gas from a 16-foot (5-meter) perforated section, confirming good reservoir deliverability.
The Balnaves-1 discovery was drilled in 2009 as part of a series of gas exploration and appraisal wells in the Julimar-Brunello complex. Balnaves-1 encountered 64 feet (19.4 meters) of net oil pay in the B20 sand – a light, high-quality oil accumulation at about 10,600 to 10,700 feet (3,230 to 3,260 meters) below sea level. Balnaves-2 was a sidetrack from the discovery, and Balnaves-4 was a sidetrack from Balnaves-3.
"These four wells have demonstrated sufficient potential to enable Apache to start planning development," said Thomas M. Maher, Apache's region vice president and managing director in Australia. "We estimate gross ultimate recoverable oil could be in the range of 14 million to 19 million barrels."
The Julimar and Brunello fields are large gas discoveries that will be developed to provide gas for the Wheatstone liquefied natural gas development operated by Chevron Corp. subsidiary Chevron Australia Pty Ltd. Apache Julimar Pty Ltd will operate the design and construction phases of the WA-356-P upstream part of the Wheatstone project.
Apache Julimar Pty Ltd has a 65-percent interest in offshore license WA-356-P and a 16.25-percent equity interest in the Wheatstone project. KUFPEC Australia (Julimar) Pty Ltd, a subsidiary of Kuwait Foreign Petroleum Exploration Co. k.s.c., owns the remaining interest in the offshore license and an 8.75-percent interest in the Wheatstone project. These equity interests may be reduced as a consequence of an earlier heads of agreements signed with Korea Gas Corp. for the purchase of LNG from Wheatstone and an equity stake in the project.
Apache's Australia Region is a key contributor to the company's growth. In February, production commenced from the Van Gogh and Pyrenees oil developments. Also, the Reindeer gas discovery is expected to commence production during the second half of 2011 through a new onshore gas processing facility at Devil Creek.
Apache Corporation is an oil and gas exploration and production company with operations in the United States, Canada, Egypt, the United Kingdom North Sea, Australia and Argentina. From time to time, Apache posts announcements, updates and investor information, in addition to copies of all press releases, on its website, www.apachecorp.com.

One of the highlights of the past few months was a photo shoot for Easter with Serendipity magazine. I had so much fun picking each headpiece for the models and the pictures turned out really great!
This was the spread in the magazine that was published in the March/April 2012 issue of Serendipity:
Quinn Carroll from Christopher Noland Salon in Greenwich did all the hair on the models and she was wonderful with the kids!
Bruce Plotkin was the photographer for the shoot and look what a fantastic job he did with the pictures! They all came out so lovely.
You may notice some of the headbands on the models are not on the website. They are my Rosette headbands and are made with individually hand rolled fabric rosette flowers. The older girls and moms love them because of the sophisticated look. The model on picture #8 is seen wearing a pink version. I am hoping they will be part of the website soon. But for now, they will be available on my trunk shows and once in a while, I might put one or two on facebook to sell.

Lizzie, Izzie + James: a "Smart Mom Pick"!
by Gigi Ross on May 13, 2011
That's my catchall term for clips, barrettes, ponies, headbands, and whatever else can adorn a little girl's hair.
My daughter's birthday present last year was a giant box of hairdoodles.
The only major bummer is that my daughter's hair is super fine, and a lot of the traditional hair accessories simply don't stay affixed to her hair. They slide out, and by the time I pick her up after school, it's danging at the end of a strand of a hair, like a fish on a hook.
Note: I am not a fan of my kid looking like an absolute ragamuffin. And that's precisely what she looks like with sad hairdoodles that won't stay in her hair.
I am encouraged by this online retailer of children's hair accessories called Lizzie, Izzie and James.
The owner of this business started it because she couldn't find hairdoodles that stayed in her kid's hair. A woman after my own heart.
Lizzie, Izzie and James makes handmade clips, headbands and more.
The headband pictured above is from their Hydrangea line. All of these headbands are made of wool felt and mounted on a fabric covered headband. Isn't the detailing on the flower pattern just precious?
One of the other headband collections they have is a sweet blossom pattern.
There are 4-5 other collections of headbands; they range from $10 to $18 each.
The array of hair clips is really cute as well. My daughter would love this "Flutterfly" design.
I also loved this piggie.
Two of the other styles offered include a rainbow and these adorable monogrammed clips.
The hair clips range in price from about $8 to $10.
I think these hairdoodles are really lovely. And, the sizing fits ages 3 up to adult – including the headbands – so these really are an investment you can make in quality accessories that will last a long time. To see all of the adorable styles, go visit Lizzie, Izzie and James.

No More Dieting!
Going on diets is like being that hamster on a wheel. You keep trying to achieve that elusive target weight, but in the long run you don't go anywhere and end up right back where you started. Most diets are based on flawed principles of calorie counting, fat or carbohydrate (or both) restriction and starving the body to lose weight in the short-term. They miss the basic fact that our bodies require certain set of nutrients to stay healthy and balanced. Starving the body of good fats or complex carbohydrates creates serious deficiencies over time and messes up our metabolism. It's not about counting calories, it's about counting nutrients! If you eat meals full of vitamins, minerals and the right proportions of fat, protein and carbs, your body will feel satisfied and your stomach full. Your metabolism will be balanced and you will have a lot more energy to work out and participate in your favourite activities.

This is a lifestyle program that teaches you the basics of nutritional science and makes you the specialist when it comes to your own body. We introduce you to a way of eating foods chock full of vitamins and minerals so that you stop craving all the wrong foods (like sugar and caffeine), and nourish your body with all the right foods it needs to thrive. Expect to lose inches and have lots of energy! Expect this program to change the way you approach food.
Our program covers the following topics:
- Goal and intention setting
- Creative awareness about your cravings
- Eating the right foods to lose weight and keep it off
- Why diets fail and the dangers of restrictive dieting

Fog encounters
Escape to Frankfurt
Guess what? You can take the train from Paris and be in Frankfurt in 3 hours and 30 minutes. And if you buy the tickets early you can get great prices. That's what I did back in mid-November.
Did my research before heading there, looked up speciality coffee places in town, great hotels and good photo spots. And I was not dissapointed. Frankfurt is the city of architecture, a mix between the old and the new. Skyscrapers and classic buildings blend in so well. In some corners of the city you can sense some strong New York city vibes.
We stayed at the great 25hours Hotel by Levi's - a Levi's themed hotel of the 25hours brand. I knew of this hotel chain from back when I visited Hamburg and Levi's is one of my favourite clothing brands so the choice was obvious. The location of the hotel is excellent, just a few meters away from the central train station.
Coffee wise we repeated at a great place called "The Holy Cross Brewing Society". Great and cosy little coffeeshop that makes some delicious flatwhites.
Just like in France, Frankfurt was deserted on Sunday. It was a short visit that left me wanting to come back during summer.
Prague in summer
It was my third time in Prague but the first time I visited the city during summer. I wanted to see how it feels to experience this city without having to worry about the cold. And I found my answer. I found out I preffer the bohemian capital in the cold season. This city shines brighter on a cold gray day. Low temperatures wipe big crowds off the street, so you don't have to deal with the drunk people lured to Prague by the cheap beer.
I had my Hasselblad with me to capture Prague on Kodak Portra 400. These are the results, carefully scanned by Carmencita Film Lab in Valencia.
What do you admire?
On my latest visit to London, I was wandering through Shoreditch holding my Hasselblad trying the capture the vast photographic opportunities this neighbourhood has to offer.
All of a sudden, I see a Hasselblad tshirt in a shops window nearby. I entered and I met shop owner Theo Stegers. We ended up having a long chat about Hasselblads and Leicas and I ended up with two gorgeous tshirts featuring the iconic models of both brands: the 500C and the M3.
All photos were taken on the Hasselblad 501CM medium format camera on Portra 400 film and developed by Carmencita Film Lab in Valencia. You can find the We Admire shop online or by visiting their shop in Shoreditch (13-15 Great Eastern Street London, EC2A 3EJ).
Sully sur Loire Castle
I have the priviledge of living in the Loire valley. This valley is famous for its castles built during the French Renaissance for the French kings to live in. The density of beautiful buildings in this area is so big that it is declared as part of the UNESCO Human Heritage. Best part is I only visited some of it, so there's lots of castles left to visit.
The photos in this post are from the Château de Sully-sur-Loire, a fortified castle which served as residence for the dukes of Sully. It sheltered Voltaire during some time. And each year there's a music festival here in June.
Unfortunately the castle was closed that day, but we got to enjoy the wonderful surroundings.
Shots were all taken on the Hasselblad 501CM on Kodak Portra 400 developed and scanned by Carmencita Film Lab in Valencia.
Hunting memories in Cluj
Almost one year after the first time I stepped foot in Cluj, I came back to this magic city in the heart of Transilvania I felt inlove with. I came back hunting for more great memories because Cluj never disappoints. All of them are forever stored in the hearts of those present but some of them are also trapped on film.
Bits of Portsmouth
February found me in the British county of Hampshire, in the old town of Portsmouth. It was my second visit to England and what a great visit it was! We got to see the whole bay from up above, in the Spinnaker Tower, we walked a lot down by the docks and we got to relax at local cafés. Weather was quite pleasant for a February in Britain.
Brought with me my favourite camera at the moment, the medium film format Hasselblad 501CM and my favourite film Kodak Portra 400, all developed and scanned at Carmencita Film Lab in Valencia, Spain. Here are some of the results.
Paris (I)
First post out of many about Paris. It's the reference city for me now as I live only one hour away from it, in a rather small town. So each time Paris is like a breath of fresh air with all its possibilites. Exploring Paris with a camera in my hand is probably one of my favourite things right now.
Exploring its streets and discovering new places to go to, places to photograph, memories to remember.
Testing out cafés to find the perfect coffeeshop out of the coffeeshop boom that has taken over the City of Lights. Having the perfect breakfast at Holybelly Café in the 10th arrondissement.
All photos in this posts were taken with an iPhone 6 and a Hasselblad 501CM on medium format Portra 400 film developed at Carmencita Film Lab in Valencia, Spain.
New year in Gent, Belgium
They say that whatever you're doing when you're entering a new year it's pretty much what you're going to do through the whole year. That's why I started the year travelling. I got a feeling there's going to be some in 2015.
All pictures are taken with a Hasselblad 501CM camera on medium format Portra 400 film developed at Carmencita Film Lab.

text: A. Anything is possible, but the salary you have been quoted is highly optimistic. If you read the salary surveys for an MCSE, ( Microsoft Certified Professional Magazine Salary Survey or Certification Magazine's "Certification and IT Professionals" research study ) you'll observe that most MCSEs are earning $35,000 to $65,000 per year. Less experience means less money or no money at all while you're trying to find a job. Before you sign on the dotted line, remember that you will be paying back a loan that's equivalent to a car payment. IT certification is one of the best career enhancement bargains, but it's not for everyone. Go into this with your eyes open and realize that the promise of a high-paying job for people with no experience is not realistic.

The Unhappy Life
Happiness, meaning, and being present
Posted Jan 13, 2014
A recently published study in the Journal of Positive Psychology revealed some specific differences between meaningfulness and happiness. It turns out that a meaningful life can be an unhappy one, but momentary unhappiness is often informed by positive social contribution, and connected to a broader sense of purpose and self-value.
Researchers surveyed 397 people, looking into decision-making, belief systems, and value sets, while also addressing the question of whether these people would describe their lives as either meaningful or happy. In doing so, they discovered five key features differentiating meaningfulness and happiness.
First was the question of want, or desire, versus need. Fulfilling a desire is a dependable basis for establishing happiness, yet it is unrelated to a demonstrable sense of meaning. A clear example of this might be found in someone who is chronically ill, or debilitated. An individual challenged in this way may be less happy than someone who is not, but their lives are not wanting for meaning. Anecdotally, we could point to people like author Toni Bernhard, who actually found an enhanced sense of meaning through her chronic illness, or Stephen Hawking who has said, "It matters if you just don't give up".
The second feature researchers uncovered was how time relates to happiness and meaning. Individuals who reflected on the past and projected into the future, in relationship to the present, were more inclined to establish a sense of meaning, although experiencing a diminished sense of happiness. Those who focused solely on the present experienced an increased sense of happiness. There is likely something to be said here about how mindfulness practice and being present can have a positive impact on one's emotions and state of mind.
Third was social life, which is central to both meaning and happiness, but differentiated by the nature of relationship. Longitudinal relationships increase a sense of meaning. More transient relationships, on the other hand, increase happiness, having little impact on meaning. This outcome points back to the second result in that present experience enhances a sense of happiness, while lifespan experience impacts sense of meaning.
Highly meaningful lives are often fraught with challenges and stress, which was the fourth finding in the study. A reduction in stress influences one's degree of happiness, but diminished challenges also diminish sense of meaning. Parenting, for example, is typically regarding as highly meaningful, but the attendant stress associated with childrearing can, and often does, diminish the experience of happiness.
Lastly were issues of self-identity and sense of self. Happiness is connected to fulfilling a desire, or getting what we want or need. Meaningfulness, on the other hand, is about self-expression and self-definition. In other words, happiness can be seen as an outcome of an ego-centric worldview (I, Me, Mine), while meaningfulness is associated with a more ethno-centric (Us), or even geo-centric (All of Us) worldview. Meaningfulness is thus tied to self-value as a reflection of purpose within a larger social context.
The recent cultural imperative focused on cultivating happiness is something of a distraction from the notion of a meaningful, but potentially unhappy—or better put less happy—life. That is not to say that the pursuit of happiness, as we each define it for ourselves, is unwarranted or a fool's errand. What these finding describe is the fabric of our happiness and how we weave meaning into that happiness.
Similarly, our recent focus on mindfulness and being present invokes a comparable distraction. It brings to mind an old(-ish) Zen aphorism: "It's all well and good to be enlightened, but, if the light is on, who's paying the bill?" This notion speaks to that same sense of how a perspective informed by a long vision brings meaning, while immediacy brings contentment and joy.
We seek happiness through satisfying desires. We find meaning and a sense of purpose by bringing the past to bear on the present, propelling us into the future. Balancing our vision against the present moment may not always bring us joy, but will, in the end, create the context of a purposeful and gratifying life.

Charlie Parker

CD Details
CD Reviews
Blues Bro | Lakewood, Colorado USA | 08/11/2008
(4 out of 5 stars)
"This CD includes two previously issued concerts under the OJC (original jazz classics) label: Bird on 52nd street and Bird at St Nicks (minus one alternate take of a song). So the price is right, you are basically getting two for the price of one.
These are great live dates by Bird, no doubt about he is in full flight. But the sound of this recordings is VERY ROUGH. Recorded on portable machines over 60 years ago; so it sounds as if you are outside the club on the pouring rain. This is understandable of course, and these recordings belong in every Charlie Parker collection.
But please dont make this your first Charlie Parker purchase, or even your first LIVE Charlie Parker, you might be disappointed with the sound.
I am deducting one star for Concord. Nowhere in the external package they are informing you that these are two previous live sessions in bad sound you are getting. It is packaged as it is a 'Greatest Hits' collection of Bird's classic sides (for which they dont have the rights by the way)."

What is pulmonary edema?
Pulmonary edema is collection of fluid within the lungs. This is different from pleural effusion, which is collection of fluid between the inner and outer coverings of the lung. The most important cause of pulmonary edema is heart failure, specifically, failure of the left ventricle, lower muscular chamber which pumps oxygenated blood to the rest of the body. Pulmonary edema can also occur when there is fluid overload in the body as in kidney failure.
Other causes of pulmonary edema are obstruction to the mitral valve (valve between the left upper (left atrium) and left lower (left ventricle) chambers of the heart, obstruction to the blood vessels draining oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium (pulmonary veins) and increased permeability of the small blood vessels of the lungs (noncardiogenic pulmonary edema – e.g. adult respiratory distress syndrome or ARDS).

Up until recently, users who have rooted devices such as the Kindle Fire or Nook Color have been unable to take advantage of the Android Web Market's ability to push apps. This was due to the fact that the Android Web Market would not recognize any device that didn't originally ship with the Android Market. Well, Google has changed all that with a recent update, and we couldn't be happier. If you've gone ahead and put the Android Market on one of your Androidstein creations, you will now see it listed under your devices in the Android Web Market. That means you can now download apps via the web and have them pushed to your device.
Of course, as with any attempt to make your device more Android, it does not comes without its issues. There appears to be issues with the Android Web Market wanting to update apps that you have installed previously via other sources. The update fails and you have one of two options: Simply re-install the app (which is fine if the app was free) or deal with the constant notifications to update your app. It's really great to see Google doing its best to support users who wish to use their devices as they see fit, and not the other way around, like most companies. Of course this will only work if you have already rooted your device and installed the Android Market app onto it. Congratulations, you are now one step closer to having your cake and eating it too.

Liquid Silver Books, $5.75, ISBN 978-1-59578-435-3
Fantasy Romance, 2008
Great, another vampire named Damien? While I understand that it helps readers to recognize immediately that this novella is another one of those vampire stories – sorry, vampyre romances – surely there are more names out there than Lucien, Damien, and Gideon, no?
Damien Valencourt – eeuw, are those goosebumps I am seeing on my skin? – knows Lady Charisse Baxter as a friend, but an attempt to shield her from an old friend, let's just say, has all his vampyre friends from the High Counsel believing that she's his mistress. Charisse, who must surely be the grandmother of the generation of emo Goth girls who venerate Livejournal and MySpace, is the type to be interested in occult when she's not wearing black all the time. Therefore, that may explain the surprising ease at which she accepts that Damien is a vampyre and she's pretty much a hostage in the hands of the Counsel in order for them to ensure that Damien will obey their orders.
The mission, as you may expect, is to stop a bad vampyre who is on the loose. This naughty creature is killing people indiscriminately when the villain is not trying to cause all kinds of trouble for the Counsel. Why is it Damien who must stop this villain, you ask? That's because Damien and that fellow are brothers. Brothers kill brothers all the time, as we all know, so this one should be easy. The Counsel is so smart that way. There is also some scroll involved that apparently contains the secret to mortality for any vampyres wanting to be human again, but that scroll doesn't really have much of an impact on the development of the story so I'll just leave it at that.
This is a story where you have to have a pretty high threshold for characters behaving stupidly to enjoy it because my goodness, Charisse gets the plot moving all right by foolishly ignoring warnings to go off trying to do things on her own that she has little knowledge of. You can guess what happens to her, I'm sure. Her constant need of rescue allows Damien to puff up protectively and fall in love with her, from what I can see, but goodness, Charisse is truly irritating.
On the bright side, despite the tendency of every female in this story to be uniformly – and even interchangeably – plucky and sassy without much common sense to go along with all that preciousness, Damien does have its merit. I mean, yes, the characters probably will literally take forever to put together a jigsaw puzzle, but this story does make a rather refreshing read at times because of how often it doesn't embrace the clichés that plague stories of this kind. For example, there is no skanky female villain raving and shrieking about not being able to have the hero's love, nobody is angst-ridden here, and there is a conspicuous absence of soulmate overload and "I'm a vampire, I can't be with you!" melodrama.
If something can be done about those heroines who insist on running headlong into trouble without a care, perhaps Damien could be a lighthearted vampire romp that I can really sink my teeth into. As it is, I'll recommend this one only to readers of this type of stories who also don't mind encountering foolishly reckless heroines in their stories.

I'm supposed to be a christian, but most days I don't feel like I can even presume to say that about myself any longer. I have a lot of mad left over. When I can't sleep, I think about the other people who didn't care how much pain and trouble they caused me. And I think about how good I'd feel if they died.

Officials of Kenya's Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) are scheduled to meet Tuesday, to begin drawing constituencies ahead of next year's general elections.
Commission chairman Ahmed Isaack Hassa, who together with his team was officially installed Monday, vowed to ensure that next year's vote will be credible, free and fair.
Kenya's new constitution gives the electoral body until February to create new constituencies, whose boundaries can later be challenged by the public.
"We will first embark on the completion of [drawing] the boundaries, which has been left pending. We are going to consult with the people and publish our report," said Hassan. "We shall [also] start the voter registration exercise to enable more than 20 million Kenyans to be registered [so they can] take part in the general elections [next year]."
Kenya's new constitution, Hassan said, allows citizens for the first time an opportunity to vote in the country's embassies abroad. The previous constitution only allowed Kenyans abroad to "physically" vote in a local polling station when they return home.
Kenya's 2007-2008 post-election violence left more than 1,300 people dead and displaced hundreds of thousands. Observers said the poorly managed vote contributed to the violence.
Some analysts have expressed concern there could be another round of violence if next year's polls fail to meet a threshold of free fair and credible vote. Hassan underscored the need to ensure future elections meet that standard.
He also said to ensure the public's confidence in the electoral body, it is critical that officials of the IEBC demonstrate integrity and that the entire election process is trustworthy and acceptable by voters.
Hassan said Kenya's upcoming polls will make use of information technology.
"We have introduced electronic voter registration, electronic transmission of results and we have actually modernized the way we conduct elections," said Hassan. "That's why when we had the referendum last year, there was no [problem]. Nobody had any petition [against it]."
The electoral body has conducted more than 12 parliamentary by-elections and 50 other local ones. Hassan vowed the electoral body will ensure future polls are credible.
"In fact we have seen a situation where losers are actually conceding defeat because of the transparency and accountability we have [implemented]," said Hassan. "I believe the IEBC will build on that progress and make sure the next general elections will be transparent free and fair."

Recycling of nutrients, air, and water is an integral feature of life support systems designed for long-term space missions. Plants can play a major role in supplying the basic life support requirements, which include providing the crew's food, clean water, and air, and recycling their wastes. The nutrient flux through the plant and human systems needs to be matched in order for nutrients to recycle between humans and plants without an excessive buildup in any one section of the system. Sodium, which is essential at the macronutrient level for human metabolism, has only been shown to be a micronutrient for some plants, with only very limited uptake in most plants. Thus, when Na is added from the outside to meet the human demand in these closed life support systems it will accumulate someplace in the overall system. In simple systems such as these, without a complete biogeological cycle, the buildup of Na could occur in the nutrient solution of the plant system. Various concepts related to the substitution of sodium for potassium in crop plants are currently being investigated by NASA. Results to date suggest that Na concentrations up to 100 g kg-1 dry weight may be achievable in the edible portions of Na-tolerant crops (e.g., red beet and chard). A flow path for nutrient solution high in Na wastes has been suggested for optimizing Na and nitrogen incorporation and utilization from such solutions. Options for further improvements include selecting plant genotypes tolerant to high salinity, which are efficient in Na uptake. This should also be combined with environmental manipulations to maximize Na uptake by crop plants.

Edible oil is a critical component of the proposed plant-based Advanced Life Support (ALS) diet. Soybean, peanut, and single-cell oil are the oil source options to date. In terrestrial manufacture, oil is ordinarily extracted with hexane, an organic solvent. However, exposed solvents are not permitted in the spacecraft environment or in enclosed human tests by National Aeronautics and Space Administration due to their potential danger and handling difficulty. As a result, alternative oil-processing methods will need to be utilized. Preparation and recovery options include traditional dehulling, crushing, conditioning, and flaking, extrusion, pressing, water extraction, and supercritical extraction. These processing options were evaluated on criteria appropriate to the Advanced Life Support System and BIO-Plex application including: product quality, product stability, waste production, risk, energy needs, labor requirements, utilization of nonrenewable resources, usefulness of by-products, and versatility and mass of equipment to determine the most appropriate ALS edible oil-processing operation.

Crop residues in an Advanced Life Support System (ALS) contain many valuable components that could be recovered and used. Wheat is 60% inedible, with approximately 90% of the total sugars in the residue cellulose and hemicellulose. To release these sugars requires pretreatment followed by enzymatic hydrolysis. Cryptococcus curvatus, an oleaginous yeast, uses the sugars in cellulose and hemicellulose for growth and production of storage triglycerides. In this investigation, alkaline-peroxide and ozonation pretreatment methods were compared for their efficiency to release glucose and xylose to be used in the cultivation of C. curvatus. Leaching the biomass with water at 65°C for 4 h prior to pretreatment facilitated saccharification. Alkaline-peroxide and ozone pretreatment were almost 100% and 80% saccharification efficient, respectively. The sugars derived from the hydrolysis of alkaline-peroxide-treated wheat straw supported the growth of C. curvatus and the production of edible single-cell oil.

Essential to extended human exploration and utilization of space is providing a clean supply of potable water as well as water for washing. Recycling of space mission wastewater is necessary for long-term space missions due to the limited capacity of water storage. In this study, initial measurements toward a wastewater reclamation system that provides a clean water supply using reverse osmosis (RO) membranes have been made using stirred cell filtration experiments. Low-pressure reverse osmosis (LPRO) membranes were used to obtain high flux of permeate as well as high rejection. Detergent removal was above 99%, and dissolved salt removal was above 90% in single-pass treatment, while total organic carbon (TOC) removal was nearly 80%. Most problematic is nitrogen rejection, which was 74% at best. Comparison of feed water before and after urea hydrolysis shows that the rejection of nitrogen compounds can be increased to 95% by allowing urea hydrolysis to occur. The removal efficiency for nitrogen compounds was also improved by increasing the shear rate near membrane surface. As a result, the product water in two passes could meet the hygiene water requirements for human space missions, and the product water in three passes could meet potable water regulations with overall recovery of 77%. This study also suggests that dynamic rotating membrane filtration, which can produce a high shear rate, will be useful to increase the system recovery as well as pollutant rejection.

Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) microanalysis were used to investigate the nature of crystals deposited on leaves of Mir- and Earth-grown Super Dwarf wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) plants. Leaves from these plants exhibited dense and uniformly distributed crystals on leaf abaxial surfaces when viewed by SEM. Young leaves showed that crystals initially accumulated around the stomata on the adaxial surface, but became more dense and uniformly distributed as the leaves aged. EDX microanalyses of the Balkanine (a nutrient charged clinoptilolite zeolite) medium in which the wheat plants were grown showed an elemental pattern similar to that observed on the wheat leaves. The absence of N and P in the Balkanine suggests that they were completely utilized by the plants. Only Si and O were evident in the drying agent, Sorb-it-SilicaT, and perhaps could have accounted for some of the Si observed on the plant tissue.

Artificial biospheres of the scale and complexity of Biosphere 2 can only work with coordinated rigorous design at each level of ecology: biospheres, biomes, bioregions, ecosystems, communities, patches, phases, physical-chemical functions, guilds, populations, organisms, and cells (both eucaryotic and procaryotic). This article reviews these theoretical concepts and provides examples of how this structure was applied to the design and development of Biosphere 2. In addition to this ecological engineering design, the addition of humans as inhabitants in the closed system required design of ethnological patterns and of technical and cybernetic systems for meeting specifically human requirements of labor efficiency, climate, nutrition, wastewater recycle, and pure air and water. Ecological levels of biospheric complexity can be directly applied to studies of the Earth's biosphere and, in fact, must be used to understand complex biospheric processes.

$681,000 will go towards implementing Hunting Park's Neighborhood Strategic Plan 2022, Nueva Esperanza's $26-million 10-year plan to revitalize the section of Philadelphia.
"Esperanza is a great partner with a history of making investments in the community with those issues that matter most to the community," Denise McGregor Armbrister of the Wells Fargo Regional Foundation said.
Since it open its doors over three decades ago, Esperanza has embarked on a number of initiatives.
A while back, they bought a dilapidated property in the 4500 block of North 5th Street, cleared it and attracted Rite Aid to build a pharmacy there.
They opened a charter high school, Esperanza Academy.
Most recently, they bought a 10 acre lot where a paper mill once stood. In addition to housing the group's new offices, plans are to house another charter school there among other initiatives.
Councilwoman Maria Quinones Sanchez endorsed the plan today.
"We are committed. We are all in," Sanchez said.
The mayor's deputy director of commerce also pledged the city's support.
The group's president and founder Reverend Luis Cortes says none of this would be possible without financial support from those investing in communities like the Wells Fargo Regional Foundation.
"Thank you Wells Fargo for being with us throughout the years; as we go forward, the best is yet to come," Cortes said.

Love Transfigures, Sin Disfigures
by Fr. Rich Jones
There is nothing permanent except change.
— Heraclitus (535-475 BC)
Greek philosopher
On this Second Sunday of Lent, we continue our penitential journey as we reflect on the Transfiguration on the Mount Tabor.
Last week we recalled Jesus' temptation in the desert at the beginning of his earthly ministry; this week we see him on a mountain as that ministry nears its culmination. One scene shows him at his most human, the other reveals his eternal glory. These two Sundays are the pillars of Lent. Indeed, they are the entire structure of the Christian life, which consists in the paschal dynamism: from death to life.
In Scripture, the mountain is God's reserved place, the prime site for Israel's encounters with God. People choose mountain retreats as places of prayer. Mountain air and far horizons help us to see God, hear his voice and put God's marvelous works into perspective.
Jesus is transfigured on one mountain – Tabor – and ascends from another -- the Mount of Olives. Between those two mountains are sites of his agony in Gethsemane and his crucifixion and death on Mount Calvary. Only the Resurrection will reconcile all the mountains into one reality of Jesus Christ, dead, risen and forever robed in unimaginable glory at God's right hand.
During this holy season of Lent, the Church invites and challenges each of us to follow Christ by climbing each of these mountains – Tabor, Olivet and Calvary.
The first is Tabor. Scripture tells us that Jesus took Peter, James and John up to a high mountain where he was transfigured so that his glory was revealed. His face and garment became dazzling white. Moses and Elijah conversed with Jesus, showing that he was the fulfillment of the law and the prophets. A voice from the heavens said "
This is my beloved Son . . . Listen to him" (
Matthew 17:5).
On Tabor, the disciples got a foretaste of the life to come, when our lowly bodies will be changed to be like his glorious, heavenly Body. But just as they had to climb the mountain to witness that brief transfiguration, they would face many trials before their own, eternal transfiguration. As St. Paul taught, "
We must go through many hardships to enter the Kingdom of God" (
Acts 14:22).
The story of the Peter, James and John at the Transfiguration is that of Jesus close followers, who believed they knew him well, only to be overwhelmed by a powerful experience of his true power and glory. As they contemplate him, while bathed in heavenly light, they yearn for this experience to continue. Peter blurts out,
"Lord, it is wonderful for us to be here"
(Matthew 17:4). As the disciples see the beautiful, radiant face of Jesus, there is not a thing they would change. They suddenly perceive that he is not just their friend, not just a great teacher, but that he is truly the Son of God, fully human and fully divine.
Yet Jesus warns them that others will not understand this until his mission on Earth is fulfilled. As the disciples were coming down the mountain, Jesus said, "Tell no one . . . until I am raised from the dead" (Matthew 17:9).
Last week I wrote about Jesus' 40 days of temptation in the desert. That temptation and the Transfiguration together anticipate the Paschal Mystery: Jesus' struggle with the Tempter foreshadows the great final duel of the Passion, while the light of his transfigured Body anticipates the glory of the Resurrection.
When Satan tempted Jesus in the garden, we see that Jesus was fully man, sharing with us even temptation, but he did not sin. And today we contemplate Him as the Son of God who divinizes our humanity through the atoning glory of his death and Resurrection. When we are truly repentant for our sins, then the Precious Blood he shed on the cross washes them away and makes us pure so that we can enter into God's presence forever. His glory and our salvation were achieved by embracing the shame of the Cross. Jesus kissed the Cross in order to bring all of us into the glory of heaven.
In Jesus' transfigured glory we see that eternal life with God will rob death of its power. Transfiguration can be understood as the sacrament of our future resurrection from the dead, because it was a visible foretaste of the resurrection we will one day experience. Through the grace of Baptism we share in the Resurrection of Jesus. The Transfiguration shows us how our lowly bodies will be changed to be like his glorious, heavenly Body.
But how do we begin to experience that transformation in this life? Love is the key. By this I mean unselfish love not only for friends and family, but for strangers, for our enemies and especially for God.
Love transfigures us by making us attractive and beautiful; whereas sin disfigures us, making us repulsive. We have all witnessed this. Someone who is physically appealing, and who may be materially successful, may also be selfish and cruel. Their character destroys their beauty. On the other hand, we have all known people who were physically unattractive by Hollywood standards, yet whose kindness and mercy revealed a beauty far deeper than that found on the cover of a fashion magazine.
Let us see Jesus' face through his Word, his Church, his sacraments and his people. As we gather in faith to be transfixed, transfigured and transformed by the Word of the Lord and the sacrament of the Eucharist, we receive a foretaste and pledge of the Eternal Banquet in Glory. That sacrament gives us the strength to love.
Let us praise the
body of Christ on this 6-week pilgrimage. Join me in praying,
You will the salvation of all peoples, O Lord. Through this season of Lent, touch the hearts of the needy, the hardened, the proud, and the penitent with your transforming love.
