Quick Tip: Need beautiful posters printed ASAP? Check out our reviews of the best poster printing services. Prices start at just $0.44/poster!
Being involved in a student council comes with a lot of responsibilities.
Part of those responsibilities are promoting the group and its goals and recruiting new members. This is where a good poster comes in!
If you're having trouble coming up with a creative idea, keep reading.
Step 1. The materials
Materials you need may vary depending on your skills and equipment.
A bunch of colored markers and colored paper can do the trick, especially if you are confident with drawing and lettering, but if you want to go for a sleek look and have access to advanced resources, you can design the poster on the computer and then print it or have it printed.
Printing will save you lots of time and give you consistent results because you only have to design the poster once. Then you can make several copies to attach and distribute.
Step 2. A creative concept
Anything from illustrations to photo collages can work in your favor if you start with the right idea. Don't restrain your creativity. Start with a strong concept.
Take the time to plan before starting the design, making notes and sketches and reviewing them before developing the ideas further.
Step 3. A strong visual side
The poster should be bright and colorful. There should be good contrast between the background and the foreground.
Graphics can be very simple. You don't have to make everything so complicated. However, you do need to make the graphics clear so your message can get across and reach as many people as possible.
Step 4. A great slogan
To make a winning poster — not to mention a successful campaign — you need a memorable slogan. The old "Vote for X" is just too boring and everybody could easily write something like that.
If you want to stand out, you need to be original. Creating a witty motto will reflect your strengths and show people they can trust you. Make it prominent in the poster.
Remember to always play it fair. Dissing others is no way to look smarter. Being constructive and positive is also the surest path to success in the long run.
Step 5. The final poster
The poster should be easy to attach around the school and distribute to students, so make it practical. Huge posters will be problematic, but small ones also can be used as flyers!
You also can take advantage of social media and make a digital version of your poster.
Meeting adjourned!
An accomplished poster is the result of your ideas. As far as materials and skills are concerned, making the poster will be a cinch!

Probiotics and My Inflammatory Bowel Disease
I first heard of probiotics through women I worked with at an office back in 2009. They were doing some sort of intense diet/cleanse. Well probiotics is more than just a method of cleansing your body; they actually act as good bacteria for your entire system. Within the probiotic are tiny microorganisms such as yeast, viruses and good bacteria that benefit the human gut. Not in a million years did I think I would be taking them to treat a medical condition a few years down the road. Crohns disease? Colitis? Proctitis? Excuse me can you repeat that doc? Trust me when I got the diagnosis a part of me wanted to break down. At the age of 26 though I guess it was inevitable that they found something. But what happens when medication doesn't work? Probiotics I have found to be a natural source of relief and honestly the only thing I can truly rely on to work. Quick, simple and easy, adding a probiotic to my diet has changed my life.
Probiotics became a big talk a few years ago. Perhaps it was the Internet or just the success of the friendly bacteria on gastrointestinal problems. It used to be that they said get yogurt with the natural probiotic in it. Such as Stonyfield or "live culture" yogurt. Well if you're like me and you're constantly on the go, yogurt is not always the most easily accessible snack. My "stomach" problems followed me into high school. With any stomach disorder you are either running to the bathroom, nausea, not going to the bathroom or more, let's be honest. My face began to break out with severe acne and I began to start having these night attacks. I would wake up around 11-2 AM and have to run to the bathroom with my stomach in knots I crunched up on the floor praying it would go away. I had a bad stomach. Everyone knew it, unpredictable, unreliable and embarrassing, yet doctor after doctor told me that it was simply irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
When I was 15 years old I began to have severe pain in the right side of my stomach, turned out to be acute pancreatitis. Nasty. Normally attributed to drinking alcohol the gastrointestinal team assigned to my case were puzzled. How did I get it? Well 11 years later I may have finally found the answer with this whole Crohn's business and I was diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease, which is totally different from IBS. Probiotics may not cure my Crohn's but they help give my body the natural enzymes it lacks to break down the foods and wastes that circulate through my intestines. You can try a yogurt such as Activia or "active yogurt" brands in the supermarket.
At first I was nervous because I didn't know if it would react badly with the medications that the doctors had me on. Using probiotics every morning has been great. My face has cleared up 100%, breakouts are non-existent and my stomach is finally starting to get back to its normal flat feminine shape. I hope that if you have been searching the Internet for answers like I was that this article helps you, because I know that not many people explain the disease in normal human terminology. Crohns may be a lifelong disease, but it doesn't mean that you have to stop living by any means. If you have any sort of stomach disorder like I do, I highly recommend trying probiotics to regulate your stomach. Some great probiotics to try that are natural and can be incorporated into your everyday diet (if they are not already) are miso soup, dark chocolate, green pickles (who would have thought?!), Kombucha tea and even sauerkraut!

PRESIDENT Clinton's trip to Seattle Nov. 18 for a meeting of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum in Seattle is the strongest signal yet that his administration sees closer ties with Asia as critical to the economic well-being of the United States.
And for good reason: US trade with Asia, which includes countries with the second- and (by some counts) third-largest economies in the world after the US, amounted to $344 billion last year, about half again as much as the value of trade conducted between the US and Europe. Asian economies combined are growing roughly 6.5 percent a year, while Europe, at least for now, is stagnating.
Yet it is troubling to hear the administration post the notion that, as US Assistant Secretary of State Winston Lord has said, ``Europe is still very important but, in relative terms, Asia has become more important for America - and not just for economic reasons.''
If by this the administration means that it is righting a balance between Asia and Europe, such a balance is overdue. But the United States cannot afford to tilt in Asia's direction at Europe's expense. Such a desire is understandable. After eight years of talks to reduce global trade barriers in the Uruguay Round of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, France's farm lobby has continued to threaten to sink the negotiations over the issue of crop-price supports and subsidies. And one of the foreign-policy problems that the White House might most like to forget lies in Europe: the war in Bosnia-Herzegovina.
Yet the US has strong economic, political, cultural, and historical links to Europe. Many Europeans rightly see a continued US presence, through NATO and strong economic ties, as a long-term stabilizing factor there. Interestingly, that same reasoning led Australia, which first suggested establishing APEC, to insist that the US be a member of that organization.
APEC's development from a consultative body to something more formal - even a free-trade area - will take time. Another US official's observation that, in breaking down trade barriers, APEC members will see that they are ``neighbors with more that unites us than divides us'' understates the vast cultural, political, and economic differences within Asia as well as across the Pacific.
US-Asia ties need to be strengthened. But those ties need not and should not come at Europe's expense.

Is poker "just a game" or is "a profession." How you view the game obviously depends on whether you are playing the game recreationally or professionally. However, even those that try to take up the game professionally miss the point that they should be treating the game as work. If you have any aspirations about turning pro, or even semi-pro, consider some of the following before taking the plunge.
Different Goals as a Pro Versus Recreational Player
When you are playing poker recreationally, the reality of how much money you win or lose becomes immaterial. Your goal is to have fun whether it is at the casino or with your buddies. For most of us, the max we might lose in a single night of poker is $100. Some of us, a $25 win is a "big night at the tables." But if you lose, no big deal because you were playing to have a good time or to hang out with your friends.
Things change once you take a game you were playing for recreation and make it into something that your livelihood is dependant upon. As a pro, you must provide for your lifestyle from the winnings you make at the poker table.
If you have a family, you have to provide for your family from the profits at the table. When you run into the eventual losing streak that every player will run into, the impact on your quality of life will be much more dramatic than if you just lose your fun money.
I once played with a guy in home games for close to two years and he literally lost money every game he played. His wife was a great player and is the only reason they turned a profit. He was the donation center to the game. However, he still showed up ever week and donated his $20 to $50 depending on whether we were playing a tournament or cash game.
If a pro player was on that type of a losing streak, they would be unable to survive nor would they be able to take care of their family. At some point that player would have to get a job and either walk away from the game or just play the game recreationally.
Poker is a Lonely Game
While it is true that poker is supposed to be a social game, it is also a lonely one. Playing poker will cause a strain on most any relationship and if you have noticed, there aren't many happily married poker pros unless they are married to other poker pros. Even then, that is not a recipe for success.
The emotional highs and lows as well as the financial highs and lows from being a pro is many times too much for a significant other to handle. If a wife and family are important to you, turning pro may not be the best decision.
What is Your Level of Dedication?
In order to be successful in poker, you have to have the dedication to succeed. You have to be willing to put in the time, the study, and be willing to make changes to your game and even your lifestyle to be successful.
Some players think that turning pro is as simple as quitting your job and devoting more time at the tables. The fact is that you need to be working on your game constantly in order to improve. Also, you need to be flexible in when you play. The best games are seldom from 9 to 5 during weekdays. You will have to play when the games are best in order to stay successful. If you are not willing to dedicate to getting better and providing the best opportunities to succeed, you won't succeed.
Another factor to consider in the modern age is whether you should move elsewhere in order to play poker, especially online poker. Prior to Black Friday, there were a number of players that made a living or at least supplemented their poker income with online poker.
Nowadays, online poker is only regulated in three states and the games are nowhere near as bountiful as pre-Black Friday. Some players have been forced to move out of the country to continue to play online poker or they have been forced to transition to the live game. Is this a move that you're willing to make?
Simply put, you need to take time and evaluate if you really have what it takes to become a poker professional. In all honesty, there is a very small percentage of players out there that can ever truly become a professional poker player and succeed at it.
Many do not have what it takes to succeed or are not willing to put in the time. If you find that you are one of those people, that's fine. There is nothing wrong with being a recreational player. Remember, for every Daniel Negreanu there are tens of thousands of players that have tried and failed to turn pro.
Poker is not an ideal profession for most and if you determine that to be the case, you can still enjoy the game and not be bogged down with the burden that comes with being a pro player.

I'm back!
Didja miss me? I know, I know. I missed you, too.
It's hard to believe that I haven't blogged in over a year and a half! I wish I could say I've been busy doing cool shit but that just isn't the case. I figure now's the time to finally share with everyone what I've actually been doing.
2016 was a rough year for me [as I'm sure it was for a lot of you, too]. For me, it wasn't just the political happenings or global events that occurred that brought me pain; it was far worse.
I've been battling depression and anxiety.
You know what's funny about this dirty little secret of mine [besides absolutely nothing]? Most people in my life have NO idea that I'm suffering. Just writing those words gives me anxiety. This is the first time I've ever [publicly] written about this and it aiin't fucking easy.
I've dedicated this new year to bettering myself, my life, my relationships, everything. I suppose I'm on the pursuit of happiness. In order to accomplish that, I have to acknowledge the fact that I do in fact suffer from mental health issues. So here it goes:
Hi, I'm Tyannasaurusrex and I suffer from anxiety and depression.
Cue Kid Cudi's Pursuit of Happiness!
Don't worry… I'll share more later. Ciao!

With my husband rehearsing music for the Oscars at the Kodak Theater, I'm getting some insider news – some of which I'm allowed to reveal.
First I wanted to share what I found in Rihanna's name and numbers. Sadly the singer was attacked by her boyfriend, singer Chris Brown, on a Los Angeles street on February 8.
Today is her 21st birthday. So Rihanna was born on the 20th, a 2 Day.
As I discovered, she has a large number of 2s in her blueprint. Her current name 'Rihanna' also adds up to 20 and reduces to 2. Her Destiny Number is 92/11 and her Personality Number is another 11 as well. 11 also reduces to 2.
Let's look at this phenomenon – where a number is intensified to a great degree.
The number 20 is called 'The Awakening' by the ancient Chaldeans, so at some point in her life Rihanna will likely experience a powerful awakening – bringing a new purpose and new goals. She's extraordinarily inventive, very romantic and intuitive – a dreamer.
20 also indicates she'll need patience in order to overcome occasional delays and obstacles.
Fear of the unknown is another underlying theme. Rihanna may fear different kinds of loss – loss of love, property, finances, employment, friendship. Also, it's crucial for all 2s to have a secure and peaceful home base.
The main theme of number 2 is communication. Rihanna will have a strong focus on the relationships in her life. She'll be devoted to friends and family. Much of her maturing process will come as a result of communicating her thoughts and feelings, both professionally and personally.
Since Rihanna is in a 6 Personal Year in 2009, her storyline right now puts friends and family in the forefront. May she come out of this painful episode with courage and conviction.
Now to the Oscars. This morning Clay told me that film actor Dermot Mulroney is performing in the Academy Awards orchestra. Supposedly he's a very accomplished cellist.
Keep an eye out for a close-up of Clay approximately three quarters into the show.
For the 'Best Original Soundtrack' medley, you'll see the orchestra on stage. Clay, who is concertmaster of the orchestra, will be performing a long violin solo for the movie 'Defiance' – one of the nominees. Enjoy.
I'll be checking the numbers for the main Oscar categories this weekend – so you may receive an update with my predictions.
Warmest Regards,
Tania Gabrielle

Reading and writing
I have been neglectful of my poor blog.
So, writing: I'm about 7,000 words into my WIP, but I've decided to take October to figure out the things that bug me about its plot, and then try to NaNo it. I'm 20,000 words (typed) into my rewrite of Ignited, although I would not be surprised if I have another 20,000+ more in my notebooks--I've written some scenes out of order as they come to me, because some just come really clearly. It's weird how the plot is so completely different, yet so the same, as the original version. I'm quite pleased so far. Unthawed is being queried, so no status updates on that.
Reading: I want to do mini-book reviews again, since I read more books.
+Living Dead Girl by Elizabeth Scott: it was...amazing. It feels weird to say that I loved it, because that doesn't feel like the right word at all. It made me so sad, disturbed, all the bad emotions, yet I love the fact that it stuck with me, and the writing was so amazing. I mean I actually was with this girl the entire way, and I got real butterflies in my stomach (of nerves) when I was scared for her. I think everyone should read this book, or everyone who can bear in mind that it's haunting, and not a light read, despite its misleading short length.
+Fragile Eternity by Melissa Marr: I am really glad I read this. It made me like Wicked Lovely more than I did originally. I was unsure whether or not I wanted to read it at first, because reviews on Amazon held a lot of dislike for the ending, and I didn't want to read it if it was going to make me angry. But in fact, I loved the way it ended.
+Tithe and Ironside by Holly Black: I enjoyed these. I haven't read the middle one, Valient, yet, but it's in my TBR pile. It's standalone-ish. I think Tithe is better if you also read Ironside, but I thought the author did a really good job exploring the darker side of faeries.
That's good enough for tonight.

First of all, if you have yet to, you absolutely need to visit YA Highway for our super entertaining Unlabor week.
And because apparently I don't have enough to do in life, yesterday I wrote a list of all the books I read this summer (or all the ones I read for the first time this summer) and wrote little mini-reviews of them. It was sort of fun, and good to force myself to really think why I did or didn't love something, so maybe I'll do this for more books in the future. We'll see. Yes, I read shockingly few new books this summer, but in my defense, I did do a fair bit of beta reading, and writing. Anyway, enjoy my mini-reviews!
+Wake and Fade by Lisa McMann: I liked these books enough that I'll read the third, but I'm kind of lukewarm about them. The style was both a plus and a minus for me. I liked the feeling of whipping through it, but also felt sometimes like I was reading an outline. I did think the relationship between Cabel and Janey was well done, and the plot was interesting, although this isn't the sort of plot I'd normally go for. I have to admit to feeling a little misled by the blurb on Wake. I thought it would be more dream oriented than it was. I don't really know how to explain what I mean by that. I do think it's worth reading, though, and I see why the series is popular. It's just not on my favorites list.
+The Forest of Hands and Teeth by Carrie Ryan: I enjoyed this book quite a bit. There were some things that I didn't feel got explored enough, and I never fully understood why Mary was so obsessed with the ocean. But I thought it was, for the most part, well written, and the characters were very distinct from each other, and had flawed personalities. Mary was maybe a little too flawed, but I still wanted it to work out for her. And the zombies were completely creepy. I'm not really a zombie loving girl, so I didn't expect this book to grab me, but it did. I guess I liked that she managed to do zombies without making it all about the zombies--it was new and different.
+The Hunger Games and Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins: I'm reviewing these next week on YA Highway, so all I'll say is that anyone who hasn't started this series needs to. Immediately.
+Evernight and Stargazer by Claudia Gray: My absolute favorite vampire book (or maybe tied with Dracula). I can say this with certainty. I read Evernight at a time when I was feeling pretty blah about vampires, but I like searching Amazon for books I see in people's signatures at AW. It had gotten good customer reviews, and I always thought Claudia Gray's posts on AW were so intelligent so I decided to give it a try. And I loved it. And loved Stargazer even more. If you're looking for a different version of Twilight, this isn't going to be what you want, but if you're looking for a story that makes fantastic use of vampire mythology, is well written, and has a good plot, then pick it up. It also has plenty of romance (more than I'm usually a fan of, to be honest) so vampire romance fans should like it too. Alright, so, basically, if you enjoy vampires in any way, read these books.
+The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova: I couldn't get into this book at all. I started reading it last September, and only just finished it this summer. I don't want to review it harshly because it's very well researched and it's an interesting story, but it just didn't hold me. The style was too academic for me, and everything was explained really slowly. It's not that I don't have an attention span, but it was pretty tough to get through.
+Wicked Lovely by Melissa Marr: I liked this. I actually like it more than I thought I did right after I finished it. It gave me an interest in reading more books about faeries, so I'd say it did its job. I especially liked that she made her character sort of an off the beaten path kind of girl without making her be stereotypical and emo. Because not everyone with an interest in piercings and tattoos is off in a corner crying and wallowing in how much their life sucks. Aislinn makes her own choices and takes as much control of her future as she can, and I like that. There was actually not much I disliked about this, I can't actually put my finger on what makes me say I 'like' it rather than 'love' it. I'd definitely recommend it to others, though, and will be reading more of the series.
+Break by Hannah Moscowitz: This was really good, and I don't read all that much contemporary. It was actually less edgy than I expected. Or maybe my edgy meter is off? Either way, none of the swearing was out of place; I wasn't reading through and thinking 'ok, she dropped that f-bomb just to be edgy'. I sometimes had a little trouble understanding characters' motives (Naomi, in particular), but I thought the premise was intriguing, and the writing was great. And I liked the characters, Jesse in particular.
+The City of Ember by Jeanne DePrau: This book is MG, but just because something has twelve-year-old main characters doesn't mean I can't still enjoy it! I had a little bit of a hard time getting started with this, but once I got into it, I really liked it. One thing I loved was that in a weird way it reminded me of The Giver, which is one of the best books ever, in my opinion. The similarity was in the enclosed cities, not knowing what was out beyond, having jobs chosen for them when they were through school. But this was a different kind of dystopian. I completely recommend it, especially because I think pre-teen boys would enjoy it just as much as girls.

Just bought the car this week, so wanted to thoroughly clean it. Any scratches/blemishes were worked on with the Meguiars Scratch X to try and remove them or reduce them. Then the whole car was given a good polish with Autoglym Super Resin Polish - in my opinion, the best product going if you want to get the ultimate finish.

In 1985, Ricky Nelson and his finacee, and his band, were killed in a plane crash. Rumors abound that the fire in the plane was caused by free-basing coc aine, although that was never proven.

A soccer ball signifies America's fundamental transformation into a third world country.
A box cutter signifies we will eventually lose our guns.
The boy's gay mannerism with his dainty hand means we are facing a modern day Sodom and Gommorah event.
Yep, country has gone to hell.

We have seen that many people have used the image in the past, but on the other hand, you would think that psychologists and sociologists would have picked up on the symbolism. The question which is paired with the image is about gender roles, so it could have just been laziness on the part of the preparer. Another possibility is that they noticed the symbolism and decided to use it anyway because it gave them a chuckle.edit on 2/15/2012 by GeistMelange because: (no reason given)

Take a look at this picture... really analyse it, and then share what you see...
Now consider that this is taken from a UK Sociology exam paper provided by awarding body WJEC. The actual paper can be seen here. The question/illustration is on page 10.
I can share what hidden messages I'm aware of in the photo, but it won't take the sharp minds here at ATS long to find them (particularly given the forum that I've posted this in).
I'd like to know who drew this and when. The exam paper credits the illustration to 'toy advertising', but what toy? What company?
EDIT TO ADD: Here is the article which brought this to my attention. It would be great if you could share your own interpretations of the picture before visiting the link.

What IS CURIOUS, is why a SOCIOLOGY test includes the Ben Frost artwork for analysis by students? A test creator for sociology should have seen the obvious 9/11 symbolism, as that is what the artwork is meant to convey.
That is the question we should be asking, in fact that we should be asking of WJEC, in order to move on here.

I already freakin' answered this question....
9/11 was the single most important event that has effected our society since WWII.
Of course Sociology professors would include that picture.

Clyburn Statement On House Republican Budget Resolution
WASHINGTON, DC—Assistant Democratic Leader James E. Clyburn delivered the following statement during House consideration of the Republican budget resolution.
"I rise in opposition to this misguided Republican budget because it fails the moral test. The federal budget should reflect the values of the American people, and this Republican proposal does damage to those values because it is fundamentally unfair to the middle-income, to the hardworking people of America, and to the most vulnerable among us.
"This Republican budget would end the Medicare guarantee that working people depend upon after a lifetime of hard work. The Republican budget creates new tax breaks of up to $394,000 for the wealthiest few. This Republican budget destroys 4.1 million jobs. The Republican budget breaks faith with the agreement their leaders made in last year's Budget Control Act to maintain funding for essential services. And this Republican budget protects all Pentagon funds while putting schools, roads, and job creation on the chopping block.
"The American people have spoken loud and clear in opposition to these misguided priorities. I urge the House to pass fair and balanced legislation to reduce our deficits in a responsible and surgical manner and invest in important priorities to build a strong middle class. Growing up in a church parsonage in South Carolina, I learned to put faith into action through firmly held values and high moral standards. This Republican budget fails the moral test, and I urge my colleagues to join me in defeating it."

Yes, nuclear power should be considered a life-saving technology. As the world experiences global warming at unprecedented rates, finding safer and cleaner forms of energy is paramount. If we keep relying on fossil fuels for energy, global warming will only worsen and more lives will be lost. Moreover, much of the world cannot afford fossil fuels, investing in and creating cleaner and more efficient sources of energy is a much-needed, life-saving technology.
From Three Mile Island to Chernobyl to Fukushima, nuclear power plants have poisoned people, plants and animals and have destroyed ecosystems.
Nuclear power could very well someday be a source of power, but right now it is just too unstable. Whether it's human error or mechanical breakdown, the disasters surrounding nuclear power plants outweighs the potential benefits.
Other, safer sustainable resources should be developed before nuclear. Solar, wind, tidal and geothermal power sources are more deserving of advancement than nuclear at this time.
Nuclear technology is capable of tremendous output, however from Chernobyl to the Fukushima disaster it is clear that it is a volatile generating method. Even if the safety procedures are improved to the point that it is near impossible for another catastrophe to happen, the potential permanent damage to the environment and future generations of humans everywhere is an unacceptable risk.
If governments invested half as much in alternatives as they have done with Nuclear power we would be in a much better position. A single nuclear accident affects more lives over a much longer term than other technologies. There has yet to be a resolution on what to do with radioactive wastes, and they are stock piling in questionable conditions. Vast swatches of land in the Chernobyl area will be contaminated and uninhabitable for decades. The land unusable for 100s of decades. Second generation cancer and birth deformity rates are high and still occurring. The Fukushima plant was leaking radioactive water 2 years after the accident. Thyroid cancer in the zone of contamination has risen 4x the norm. It's only a matter of time before an other incidence occurs. When we start layering the effects of accidents over one another we'll see where we are headed and it's not rosy.
While there are many negatives about it as well, those negative uses, such as creating bombs can be regulated if its other uses are to save lived in medical settings. This is no different than considering getting rid of radiation because of negative uses when it is used to save cancer patients.

February 19, 2014 17:01 ET
CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Feb. 19, 2014) - Zargon Oil & Gas Ltd. (the "Company" or "Zargon") (TSX:ZAR) (TSX:ZAR.DB) is pleased to provide a Little Bow Alkaline Surfactant Polymer ("ASP") tertiary oil recovery project update, an operational update, 2014 production and capital guidance and 2013 year end reserves. Zargon intends to release its 2013 audited financial results on March 11, 2014, after market close.
Reserves included herein are stated on a gross company working interest basis unless otherwise noted. All reserves information has been prepared in accordance with National Instrument 51-101 Standards of Disclosure ("NI 51-101"). In addition to the detailed information disclosed in this press release, more detailed information will be included in Zargon's 2013 Annual Information Form to be filed on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) and posted on our website (www.zargon.ca) in March 2014.
Based on the independent reserves evaluation conducted by McDaniel effective December 31, 2013, and prepared in accordance with NI 51-101, Zargon had proved and probable reserves of 27.69 million barrels of oil equivalent.
A summary reconciliation of the 2013 year end reserve assignments with the reserves reported in the 2012 year end report based on McDaniel's forecast prices and costs is presented below:
On a total proved basis, Zargon's added 3.03 million barrels of oil and liquids from revisions and field activities. This gain was partially offset by 1.75 million barrels of property dispositions and the net result was an increase of 1.28 million barrels of oil reserves. For total proved natural gas reserves, Zargon added 3.28 billion cubic feet from revisions and field activities. This gain was partially offset by 2.03 billion cubic feet of property sales. On a total proved combined basis Zargon's 2013 net reserve additions were 1.49 million barrels of oil equivalent. Reflecting the first proved reserve recognition for the Little Bow ASP project, the McDaniel year over year changes in the future proved development capital was $48.3 million ($55.2 million at December 31, 2013, compared with $6.9 million at December 31, 2012).
On a total proved and probable basis, Zargon's added 2.25 million barrels of oil and liquids from revisions and field activities. This gain was more than offset by 2.55 million barrels of property dispositions and the net result was a decrease of 0.30 million barrels of oil reserves. For total proved and probable natural gas reserves, Zargon added 0.62 billion cubic feet from revisions and field activities. This gain was also more than offset by 3.49 billion cubic feet of property sales. On a total proved and probable combined basis Zargon's 2013 net reserve additions (after dispositions) resulted in a decrease of 0.77 million barrels of oil equivalent. The McDaniel year over year changes in the future proved and probable developement capital was a reduction of $2.2 million ($121.3 million at December 31, 2013, compared with $123.5 million at December 31, 2012).
Zargon's reserves are characterized by a high developed producing component and a corresponding high confidence level. Proved developed producing reserves represent 83 percent of total proved reserves while proved and probable developed reserves account for 69 percent of total proved and probable reserves. The Little Bow ASP project represents 70 percent of the proved and probable undeveloped reserves and 17 percent of Zargon's total proved and probable reserves assignment.
Zargon's oil, liquids and natural gas reserves were evaluated using McDaniel's price forecasts effective January 1, 2014, prior to provisions for income taxes, interest, debt service charges, transaction costs and general and administrative expenses. The estimated values of future net revenue disclosed do not represent the fair market value of the reserves.
The following net asset value table shows what is customarily referred to as a "produce-out" net asset value calculation under which the current value of Zargon's reserves would be produced at McDaniel's forecast future prices and costs. The value is a snapshot in time as at December 31, 2013, and is based on various assumptions including commodity prices and foreign exchange rates that vary over time. In this analysis, the present value of the proved and probable reserves is calculated at a before tax 10 percent discount rate. In the net asset value calculation, Zargon's 230 thousand net acres of land is valued at $17.2 million based on the independent firm of Seaton-Jordan & Associates Ltd. valuation as at December 31, 2013.
The following table provides net asset value estimates at December 31, 2013 for all four reserve categories.

In addition, all statements relating to reserves, including ASP reserves, in this press release are deemed to be forward-looking as they involve an implied assessment, based on certain assumptions and estimates, that the reserves described, can be properly produced in the future.
By their nature, forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control, such as those relating to results of operations and financial condition, general economic conditions, industry conditions, changes in regulatory and taxation regimes, volatility of commodity prices, escalation of operating and capital costs, currency fluctuations, the availability of services, imprecision of reserve estimates, geological, technical, drilling and processing problems, environmental risks, weather, the lack of availability of qualified personnel or management, stock market volatility, the ability to access sufficient capital from internal and external sources and competition from other industry participants for, among other things, capital, services, acquisitions of reserves, undeveloped lands and skilled personnel. Risks are described in more detail in our Annual Information Form, which will be available on sedar and our website. Forward-looking statements are provided to allow investors to have a greater understanding of our business.

Our policy for updating forward-looking statements is that Zargon disclaims, except as required by law, any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Other Advisories - Boe's may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of 6 Mcf: 1 bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. In addition, given that the value ratio based on the current price of crude oil as compared to natural gas is significantly different from the energy equivalency of 6:1, utilizing a conversion ratio on a 6:1 basis may be misleading as an indication of value. The estimates of reserves and future net revenue for individual properties may not reflect the same confidence level as estimates of reserves and future net revenue for all properties, due to the effects of aggregation.

2014 German GP paper review: Nico Rosberg wins, but Lewis Hamilton grabs the headlines
Fleet Street impressed with 'Gung-ho Hamilton's' charge through pack
By William Esler
Last Updated: 22/07/14 3:52pm
Nico Rosberg may have taken home the winner's trophy, but it was Lewis Hamilton's charge from 20th to third that was the focus of Monday's papers following the German Grand Prix.
'Gung-ho Hamilton finishes thrilling third after starting 20th,' was the Daily Mail's headline, with Jonathan McEvoy stating that the 2008 World Champion 'drove swashbucklingly well'.
McEvoy did admit, though, that 'the only people who could possibly have caught Nico Rosberg on Sunday were Interpol' after the World Championship leader triumphed by 20 seconds.
In The Guardian, Giles Richards wrote that Rosberg's drive was 'well executed' but that 'in an action packed grand prix it was Lewis Hamilton's charge from 20th on the grid to third place that had fans on the edge of their seats'.
Richards described the Mercedes driver's move on Kimi Raikkonen as 'breath-taking', while it also impressed Kevin Eason of The Times.
'A typically swashbuckling day of 15 on-track overtaking manoeuvres, including one spectacular three-abreast charge into the Hockenheim hairpin with the Ferrari of Kimi Raikkonen and Daniel Ricciardo's Red Bull outside him,' he wrote.
Using a football analogy to summarise the weekend Eason added: 'Germany's golden boy got the prize and the Englishman was stuck with the penalty. Some things never change.'
Richards, though, believes Hamilton's drive after his qualifying woes was beyond expectations: 'to go from such tribulations, just a few hours before the race, to turning in a controlled but aggressive drive, including the fastest lap, was a marvellous turnaround rewarded with a clutch of points that may yet prove crucial at the season's end.'
There was praise for the man who separated the two Mercedes drivers on the podium as well, with The Daily Telegraph's Daniel Johnson stating that Valtteri Bottas 'is making waves in Formula 1 after his third successive podium,' whilst Eason said the Finn 'is emerging as a star of the future'.
In the Independent, David Tremayne reckoned parts of Sunday's race could be used as the perfect example of how the 2014 season has unfolded.
'The 34th lap of the German Grand Prix on Sunday was the exact midpoint of the season – and it perfectly summarised the racing thus far,' he wrote.
'Mercedes' Nico Rosberg was waltzing comfortably towards his fourth victory of the season with barely a moment of worry, while team-mate Lewis Hamilton was driving the wheels off his car playing yet another game of catch-up in the face of adversity.'
Tremayne also drew attention to what he felt was an inexplicable decision not to deploy the safety car after Adrian Sutil stopped on the pit-straight.
'If ever there was a need for the safety car that seemed to be it, but the deployment never happened and it was an unacceptable three minutes before marshals finally moved it to heave the stricken vehicle out of the way.'

New York Red Bulls star Thierry Henry feels that strike partner Luke Rodgers is capable of taking out this season's MLS Golden Boot.
The 29-year old Englishman, who joined the Red Bulls from Notts County in January, has already scored five goals for his new club and Henry, who is one ahead of him on six, says his teammate can take out the goalscoring award this season.
"I tip him to finish top goal-scorer this year. I tip him, yeah,'' Henry told the NY Post ahead of the weekend's clash with Columbus Crew which ended 1-1.
"I knew he was going to score goals straightaway. When Luke has the ball, he wants to shoot. Good for him; he's that type of striker. If you don't give him the ball, he's not happy, he will curse.
"I knew if we were going to play well, Luke was going to score plus-15. And I will tell you, I'm more than happy to score goals, but I would love if Luke finishes top goal-scorer.
"I think Luke right now is living a dream. He's been unleashed. He's happy, he's buzzing. You need to be like that to play good football."

La Carmela De Boracay Facility
Aklan, Boracay Island, Boracay Beach, Philippines
La Carmela De Boracay Facility
Directors Notes
La Carmela de Boracay Facility Boracay video is a complete walk through of the resort. I start the tour from the entrance in the back of the resort near their newly built convention center that holds about 1000-2000 people. I will access the lobby of the newly built, "Executive Wing". This new section has many upgraded rooms with pool. Then I will pass from new section to old section near the beachfront pool.
The boracay Tour of this resort will show all the things that are available. This resort is located between boat station 1 and 2 and is beachfront with a 3 star rating. I highly recommend this Boracay resort for those on a budget and I highly recommend the Executive Wing. It's a little more, but worth it.

FELIZ DIA DE ACCION DE GRACIAS :D HAPPY THANKSGIVING (No subject)
Alright so like always I will jump right into it! So it is getting SUPER cold here now!!! And right now it has only gotten to -6 so I just can not wait for -30 or -40! haha just kidding so crazy. So last Tuesday I got pretty sick, maybe from the cold. I got some kind of flu I think, I was super weak and my body ached and pretty bad stomach and head ache. So I was in bed all morning and tried to work in the afternoon but it didn't really workout so I had a good amount of time that I thought about y'all and just home in general and all the sweet, loving, and awesome memories we have. I really had such an amazing childhood because of you mom and dad, for basing our house and life on the gospel and sacrificing things to do things in the church and help people and really love the gospel. I owe everything to y'all and really can't repay what y'all have given me. So I thought about all of this a lot while I was sick and also all the amazing miracles I have seen and lived throughout my mission and how everyday I am able to feel the Spirit so strongly. So then I got out of bed an knelt down and said a long prayer of gratitude for my mission and for y'all and for the gospel. It was so amazing. As I was praying this thought really sunk deep into my mind. From what I have seen in my life I have learned that the greatest miracle of all is the change that the gospel of Jesus Christ brings to someone's life according to their faith in living it. Living the gospel is such a sweet and great everlasting joy. That night I still wasn't feeling a lot better so Elder Ibañez asked if I wanted a priesthood blessing and I said sure. So Elder Tate and Elder Ibañez gave me the blessing and I really felt the Spirit and I know I received counsel from Heavenly Father. It was so cool. He said that my future family will be blessed for the decisions I make everyday to be serving here and that I am learning so many important things here that will help my future family. It was Elder Tates first time giving a blessing in Spanish and it was so good. He also said that I will be healed when I raise up in the morning. I was! That morning I woke up and felt great and was healed. So crazy and awesome. Then that night we had another lesson with Carmen and Jorge(from Venezuela) and Carmen's daughter was there too, Omaira. Omaira is pregnant with her second child and their family is super sweet. We brought Hermana Wichita Ferro with us to the lesson, she is the relief society president and is such a strong, faithful, and fun member in the church. We taught them all the Plan of Salvation and the lesson could not have gone better. At the end we shared 2 Nefi 31:3-"Porque mi alma se deleita en la claridad; porque así es como el Señor Dios obra entre los hijos de los hombres. Porque el Señor Dios ilumina el entendimiento; pues él habla a los hombres de acuerdo con el idioma de ellos, para que entiendan." We shared this because Carmen and Jorge have been going to the Evergreen English Ward because they want to learn English and also that chapel is a lot closer to their house. They really can't understand a thing in English right now though so we read that scripture and invited them to the Spanish branch but then of course they say they would much rather learn English. Then Hermana Ferro threw down on them and shared her experiences with coming here to Canada and trying to go to the English wards to learn English but it just didn't work. It's harder when you are older and you can feel the Spirit way stronger when you hear and listen to it in your own tongue. After we invited them again to the Spanish branch after reading the scripture again and they all said yes! Then we invited them to be baptized on Diciembre 17 and they all said yes! It was so funny and cool because right after the question Jorge was like "well I have already been baptized twice, three times won't hurt" Jorge is so cool. Then Carmen and Omaira say yes they want to be baptized and explain why and it really is so simple. Carmen just said "well if the church is restored and if we want to follow Jesus Christ and be clean from sin then why not?" We were all so happy and they all are so ready for baptism. It is such a fulfilling feeling to see people have faith and accept to prepare for baptism. We meet with them again this Tuesday and Wednesday. I am so excited! BUT we get transfer calls this Tuesday! AGH!! I really do not want to leave but now Elder Tate and I are finished training Elder Ibanez and we have been in the branch since the beginning of our missions so we will just see what happens. In the end though I know I will be happy wherever I go because I know that will be where the Lord wants me to be. I will let y'all know what happens next week and I really love and miss y'all and hope y'all have an awesome Thanksgiving with all our family at our house!! Looking forward to seeing pics!

DENVER – While Democrats have been able to maintain their grip on the Governor's mansion, a razor thin majority in the legislature, and control of both U.S. Senate seats, a new survey suggests that the political tides in Colorado may be turning.
A Quinnipiac University poll released Tuesday shows New Jersey Governor Chris Christie leading Hillary Clinton by near double digits, and two other potential GOP candidates edging out the former Secretary of State as well.
Christie, who recently was reelected to a second term in a heavily Democrat leaning state, is respected by many on both sides of the political divide for his pragmatic and frank approach to problem solving.
According to the survey, the portly and plain-spoken governor bests the former Obama cabinet official, still hobbled by lingering questions about the Benghazi cover up, by a comfortable 46 percent to 38 percent margin in Colorado.
Clinton's sky high unfavorable ratings appear to be dogging her electoral fortunes as well, with nearly 50 percent of voters disapproving of the former political appointee.
Other good news for Republicans: Kentucky Senator Rand Paul and Representative Paul Ryan also maintain a lead over Clinton in the survey, while Clinton is tied with Texas Senator Ted Cruz.
"The race might be hypothetical, but the lead is very real. Coloradans are showing the love for Garden State Gov. Christopher Christie, who for the first time in running well ahead of Hillary Clinton," said Tim Malloy, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute.
The Colorado Observer reported earlier this week that Senator Mark Udall is in hot water, largely thanks to the botched rollout of Obamacare.
But a larger concern for Democrats may be the President's rapidly deteriorating approval ratings.
While Mr. Obama won't be on the ballot himself in 2014, his falling popularity may adversely impact the chances of candidates from his party who are.
According to the survey, "Colorado voters disapprove 59 – 36 percent of the job President Barack Obama is doing, his worst approval rating in any state…"
"President Barack Obama hits the rocks in the Rockies," Malloy said. "Republicans are singing, 'Rocky Mountain low, Obama's in the snow.'"

This little book is absolutely charming. I had not heard of it before, and when I saw the title, I did remember the movie they had made of it, though I had not seen it. There are only 58 pages, but the author does a lot with those pages.
The plot is simple, but deep and meaningful to the characters. Papa, Caleb, and Anna, the narrator, have been left without wife and mother when she died the day after giving birth to Caleb. There is a lingering sadness; Papa doesn't sing anymore, Caleb wants to hear the story of his birth over and over again, hoping that it will bring up a memory, any memory of his mother. They live in pioneer times out on the Midwestern plains. And now Papa breaks the news that he has placed an advertisement for a wife, and it has been answered by Sarah, "Plain and tall," as she describes herself.
Sarah comes out for a month, during which time she will see if they suit each other. The story gently proceeds, with them getting to know each other, Caleb worried that she will not like them, Anna and Caleb looking for clues and hints that she is planning on staying, and Sarah's lonesomeness for her place by the sea, where she came from. Sarah does stay, saying that "There is always something to miss, no matter where you are," and that she would miss them more than the sea, if she left.
I enjoyed that the children were not bratty and resentful about a new person coming in to take a role in the family - they wanted their Papa to have a wife and themselves to have a new mother. The conflict was whether Sarah could love them and the land that was so different from her home enough to stay. We only see Sarah's mind through Anna's eyes and words, as Sarah speaks of the sea and is quiet and thoughtful.
I liked the book, and I think it would be a pleasure to read aloud to a child. I picked this copy up for under a dollar at the thrift store.

It seems as though the threat of hacking still lies heavy in the air for gaming's biggest hitters, as this week sees Codemasters announce the breach of their servers, and the theft of a 'significant' amount of personal data. They have been quick to assure users that passwords and financial data could not have been taken, but are nevertheless urging their members to change any passwords associated with their site.
Neither LulzSec nor Anonymous (the infamous hacker groups that have been associated with the recent Sony attacks) has claimed responsibility for the theft, and it is pertinent to assume that the information has been stolen with malicious intent. The Codemasters site has been taken offline for the immediate future, with users being redirected to the company's Facebook page, and a spokesperson has said that "we won't put it back up until we're sure it can be completely secure."
The British-based developer/publisher urges their users to "be extra cautious of potential scams, via email, phone, or post that ask you for personal or sensitive information," and that "if you use the same login information for other sites, you should change that information too." With the inevitable influx of new accounts being made following the release of Codemasters DiRT 3, the break-in could not have come at a worse time.
Perhaps most worryingly, Codemasters opted not to inform its members of the breach until a week after the event had occured, though a spokesman cited the need to investigate the precise cause and extent of the attack as the reason for the delay. Emails were sent out during the early hours of Friday morning, warning users that their information may have been targeted as part of the hack.
We'll keep you updated as the story unfolds. Until then, be sure to follow Codemasters' advice and change any passwords you might use with their accounts. Play safe Dealspwners!

Agra: A two-day convention here of the country's anaesthesiologists has called for the community to transit to newer techniques and medications to avert problems arising out of general anaesthesia routinely administered during surgery.
The Indian Society of Anaesthesiologists at its conference which ended on Sunday also announced a vision to empower every anaesthetist with advances in knowledge and latest skills.
"The time has come to transit to new techniques and medications to avoid problems arising due to general anaesthesia routinely administered to patients requiring surgery," the specialists said.
The conference discussed the efficacy of minimal invasive treatment options for low back pain due to disc herniation which has become a huge concern for physicians.
Dr Shiv Pratap Singh Rana and Dr Sangeeta Singh said if one has experienced low back pain or leg pain, then one is not alone since more than 800 million Indians have had an episode of back- or spine-related pain.
The annual prevalence of chronic low back pain ranges from 15 to 45 percent with a point prevalence of 30 percent.
Among the working population (20 to 64 years) more than 26 million Americans have low back pain, while almost 60 million Americans aged 65 and older have frequent low back pain, the doctors said citing a survey.
Another area of concern was 'sepsis', which is unreasonably high in critically ill patients and represents a major challenge in treatment, said Dr R.K. Singh of SGPGI, Lucknow.
Though treatment and medicines were available, the key to successful therapy still remains early detection of septic patients, he added.
Discussing recent advancements in day-care anaesthesia, Professor Qazi Ehsan Ali of Aligarh Muslim University's medical college said new techniques have reduced the need for hospitalization, as facilities of ambulatory anaesthesia are now available.
"The convenience and low overhead costs continue to attract more surgeries to be conducted in an ambulatory setting," he said.
Another common problem, Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT), can result in prolonged suffering and even death, if not recognized and treated effectively.
Dr Dharmendra Yadav of MLN Medical College, Allahabad, said "death can occur if venous thrombi breaks off and form pulmonary emboli which obstructs the arteries of lungs".
Talking about the role and medico-legal responsibilities of anaesthetists, Dr Devendra Gupta said: "The duty of an anaesthetist begins from induction of anaesthesia and ends when the patient comes out of its influence and becomes conscious. The anaesthesiologist becomes liable for not attending to the patient during this period."
Through a wide range of techniques and medicines now available, anaesthetists have made surgery easier and less complicated, the speakers said.
However, trauma remained world's number one killer among 18 to 44 years age group.
Unfortunately, trauma was the most neglected area in our society. This calls for major expansion of facilities and educational exercises, the experts said.

Baggage Handlers Busted For Stealing Credit Cards, Laptops and Cigarettes
From the Seattle Times:
Two young baggage handlers who are accused of stealing everything from cigarettes to laptops to credit cards were arrested last week in two separate incidents that have airport officials looking into whether those thefts were just the tip of an iceberg.
Bob Parker, a spokesman for the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, said a 22-year-old man was arrested on Thursday last week after an investigation by Port of Seattle detectives into the suspect's cigarette selling side business.
"He was selling a lot of cigarettes and detectives initially thought he was selling them for somebody who got them off a truck or something, but it turns out he was going through the luggage and taking anything he thought he could sell," said Parker.
The other arrest came after a baggage handler tried to use a stolen credit card at a store and was identified via security camera footage. Both handlers work for Menzies Aviation, the same company whose employees were arrested after 68 pieces of luggage were found looted in a dumpster in Houston. A spokesman for Seattle-Tacoma International Airport claims that the problem is exacerbated when victims report problems to the airline, rather than the airport. "We find that people often make a claim for an item to the airline, but never report it to the airport or the police, and then we don't know that a theft problem is developing," said Parker. —MEGHANN MARCO

The 24-year-old singer looked to be in great spirits as her bodyguard accompanied her back to the car.

"Looking for Easter eggs…" she tweeted the day before with a photo of herself in a bikini on the beach. We hope Taylor and her family had a wonderful Easter Sunday!
