Annual Report 2009
The 2009 season was one of the least productive for many years for kestrels due to a combination of low vole numbers and a very cold and wet spell of weather in the last week of April and the first week of May. Indicative of the poor vole year was the total lack of voles seen cached at nest sites and the almost total lack of barn owls breeding in the study areas compared to previous years.
The most telling statistic was territory occupation, at less than 50% it was one of the lowest on record and it is hoped that this figure is merely a reflection of a very poor vole year rather than a symptom of the decline which is taking place over much of the country. On the positive side the pairs which did breed produced 3.4 young per successful pair and it was very noticeable that these pairs were in core territories where kestrels have traditionally bred each year.
The 2009 breeding statistics are as follows :-
The first egg was laid on 17 April and only one pair at the Dam, which has been occupied since the 1960s, completed a full clutch of 6 eggs. As usual the percentage of eggs which hatched and brood survival was high. Those pairs which did start breeding produced young but their output was quite low. Two pairs failed at the prelaying stage, one brood was predated at a nest box and plucked inside, and the outcome of a fourth failure was unexplained.
Only 23 young were ringed, the second lowest since work began in 1973. One recovery was recorded, a bird ringed as a nestling in June 2008 was found freshly dead in a building in Penrith on 14 April 2009 – a duration of 305 days, 11 miles from the natal site.

Lubricant market expands in 2Q on base effectPublished : 12:01 am November 21, 2018 | No comments so far | |
(0)reads |
- Market leaders Chevron Lubricants gains market share
- Second biggest operator Indian Oil Corp. loses market share
- Overall lubricant market increases to 16,227. 86 kilo litres
- SL has estimated 65,000 kilo litre lubricant market
Sri Lanka's lubricant market leader, Chevron Lubricants Lanka PLC was seen gaining market share lost to its competitors during the second quarter of 2018 (2Q18), the quarterly lubricant market report released by the shadow industry regulator Public Utilities Commission showed.
According to the report, Chevron Lubricants' market share rose to 38.46 percent during 2Q18 from 33.63 percent recorded for the same period last year.
However, on a quarter-on-quarter basis, Chevron Lubricants' market share has come down from 41.88 percent recorded for the first quarter of 2018.
The gain in market share was reflected in Chevron Lubricants' 2Q18 interim financial accounts, as the company witnessed a growth in sales during that quarter, ending a long losing streak in its quarterly revenues.
Chevron Lubricants' closest competitor Indian Oil Corporation Limited, operating through its local subsidiary Lanka IOC PLC saw its market share declining during 2Q18 to 14.88 percent from 16.56 percent a year ago.
ExxonMobil, the third largest player in the market increased its share to 9.44 percent from 6.73 percent a year earlier.
The State-owned Ceylon Petroleum Corporation (CPC) saw its market share coming down to 5.9 percent from 9.7 percent a year ago.
Laugfs Lubricants, a more recent entrant to the crowded lube market, was able to maintain its market share above 10 percent during the 2Q18.
Meanwhile, Sri Lanka's overall lubricant market increased to 16,227. 86 kilo litres during 2Q18 compared to the 13, 995.53 kilo litres sold during the same quarter in 2017.
However, the rise in sales could be due to the base effect, as the lubricant sales in the second quarter of the previous year were hit by the floods.
Sri Lanka has an estimated 65,000 kilo litre lubricant market.
The government that came into power in 2015 has announced its plans to liberalise the country's lubricant market despite existing market players already calling the market place too crowded.
Bids have already been called from interested parties who want to import and sell lubricant.

Waitrose, the British supermarket chain, has teamed up with Scottish biotech CuanTec to develop a new food packaging film made from waste langoustine shells.
CuanTec takes waste langoustine shells created from seafood processing to make a natural polymer – which can then be turned into a flexible film.
The material also has the potential to be both industrially and home compostable, Waitrose said.
The new packaging, which is at an experimental stage, was shown to HRH The Prince of Wales during a visit to Waitrose & Partners Food Innovation Studio earlier this month.
Waitrose said it hopes the new packaging could be used as an alternative to conventional plastic film on some of its fish products in 12-18 months' time – including Waitrose Duchy smoked salmon.
"While we are still at an experimental stage, the potential for this new packaging material is incredibly exciting," said Karen Graley, Waitrose & Partners Packaging Manager.
"Conventional plastic films can't currently be recycled, reused or composted – so finding an alternative which doesn't go into landfill would be very significant in helping us reach our target of ensuring that all own label packaging is widely recyclable, reusable or home compostable by 2023."
Dr Cait Murray-Green, CEO of CuanTec, added: "As well as protecting food on sale to consumers, it gives value to what would have been a waste product and takes single use plastic out of the food system, meaning that less waste goes to landfill."

If you live in New Jersey or surrounding areas, you don't simply head to the beach. You go down the shore. And the shore that I go to frequently is Long Beach Island. No, this beach isn't the fist pumping, gelled hair, drunk fest that people have come to associate with Jersey shores (and rightly so in many instances). Instead, this is a family friendly 18 mile long island where 99% of the businesses are owned by families.
Greenhouse Cafe is one of those family owned businesses but is different from all the rest. They do EVERYTHING to cater to every single dietary restriction known to man and woman, and somehow stay open all year round (rare for businesses, especially restaurants, to be open off season on this island). With all that said, they offer some of the best home cooked food on the island. Don't be fooled by their Jersey dinner style menu, they use high quality ingredients and prepare your food like grandma was cooking it for you. But beyond any of this, they can do almost everything on the menu gluten free. The only downside, no dedicated gluten free fryer. They will bake what you need instead. Not ideal, but the menu options rock and their vast stock of different gluten free breads make up for it.
Food (9.0)
The food here is really good. It has that home cooked taste and preparation which is exactly what you want on this cozy family oriented island. I've ordered takeout and dined in here many times and have never been disappointment. I'm a creature of habit when it comes to re-ordering food items but I've tried a lot of items on their menu and have always been very satisfied. My favorite is the NY strip steak sandwich. They import their gluten free sub rolls from Japan and it tastes incredible. I've made my friends take a bite and they can't tell it is gluten free. They also have gluten free crusts, gluten free pastas, soups, bagels, wraps and everything else you can think of.
I've also eaten there breakfast more times then I can count. I mean c'mon, they have gluten free wraps for breakfast wraps and gluten free bagels for a good old new jersey breakfast sandwich. How could I not get this all the time for breakfast down in LBI.
But for this review, I did dinner and ordered three things (all food pictures are at the bottom of the post)
My girlfriend and I both got New England Clam Chowder which they have won many awards for. It is the best soup I've ever had, hands down. I'm not good at describing soups but whatever they put in this, is fantastic and an absolute must try for anyone that visits this place. Gluten free or not.
Like I said, I typically go with the NY Strip sub but this time I changed it up and went with the GF chicken parm sandwich. They used real mozzarella, homemade sauce, grilled chicken and the famous sub rolls I keep raving about. I have to admit, it was a really really good sandwich and I will happily order it again sometime but I definitely think it could be better. The NY Strip sub is much better and I take that into account with my food rating that I provided above.
For the side we both split the "smothered fries" which were basically potato skins cut up into wedges. This and the soup are my two favorite things on this menu. For the gluten free people, they take baked potato wedges and smother it with mozzarella, cheddar cheese and bacon. MY GOD. So good. You guys probably think I'm 500lbs by this point and maybe once I have enough reviews written I will be, but for now I'm very healthy. This is a once in a while plate, despite it being one of my favorites. Very very filling.
Drinks (N/A)
Nothing to write about here. I won't dock any points either because even if they offered alcohol or specialty drinks, I wouldn't come here for that. This place is all about the food and the gluten free options.
Service (9.9)
Every waiter knows the menu inside and out. Remember, this is family owned and their staff is usually people who live on or near the island. This isn't like a restaurant in the city where there are higher turnover rates, these people that work here truly care about the restaurant, you and your dietary needs. All of this goes beyond just being well trained.
Menu Honesty (9.5)
The menu has a novel for a disclaimer regarding gluten free items that are available. It goes very in depth in explaining what they can do for you and what they can offer. I've never seen another restaurant go to such lengths to make sure you are comfortable. They do so at the expense of an easy to read menu. The only reason this isn't a 10 is because the menu is inherently hard to read when you first see it. See the pictures below for reference. But still, I wish more gluten free restaurants went to this length to take care of gluten free eaters. So a 9.5 is still far above what other great restaurants will probably receive from me, score wise.
Did I Get Sick (NO)
I have NEVER gotten sick from eating here. I've spoken directly to the chef's before, the owner and to many servers. They know what they are doing here and you are in fantastic hands regarding your gluten free needs. There is always the off chance no matter where you eat, if they aren't a dedicated gf kitchen. But you have a better chance of being struck by a piece of shrapnel from a speeding train while in an armored hummer 10 cars back from the railroad crossing then being glutened here. Never heard of that happening before? Neither have I and that is the point.
Overall (9.5)
Yup, you read that right. 9.5 and well deserved. This is a must go for anyone near the area. The level of care, options, food prep, gluten knowledge, food taste and service all make this place an outstanding restaurant for gluten free eaters.

The End are a death metal band from the US. This is their debut EP.
Featuring ex-members of Massacre and Death, this is 13 minutes of old-school Floridian death metal that sees the band take their Death/Massacre backgrounds and use them to craft a brutal assault that also takes more current influences into account.
The old-school Floridian scene is immediately apparent in the songwriting and quality of the riffs. The Floridian influence in the guitar department is so obvious it couldn't be anything else, and everything fits together easily around this, put together by people who know the style inside out.
The deep growling vocals are joined by high-pitched screams that seem to accompany perfectly the rolling riffs. These four short songs are filled to the brim with catchy brutality and aggressive grooves.
Age of Apocalypse has some well-written songs on it. It may not last long, but it certainly makes a good impression. If there's going to be more of this in the future then I'll definitely be listening to it.
A very short, but very enjoyable release. Make sure you check out The End.

webinars with Natalia
August Package 3in1
( Narcissists + Expensive woman + The new me)
3 webinars in 1 for DISCOUNTED PRICE ONLY $199
Original price for the 3 webinars is combined
$230 (each $110), BUT NOW ONLY $199
with Natalia Kobylkina
The new me. Life after a break-up
Each one of us has had a moment in our lives where we have had to say goodbye to our beloved.
Each one of us knows how painful and difficult it is usually to forgive an insult or betrayal. To live through the pain. To let go of all the memories. How difficult it is to accept that you are no longer with that person.
How to get over a break-up? How to overcome the insults? How to let go of the pain? How to get ready for a new and happy relationship?
It is important to "process" negative feelings and emotions related to the separation and learn how to put an end to the relationship. This will help us release positive vibrations in order to open our heart again and continue to believe in love and happiness!
During this practical lecture:
In recent times it is very in to say: I met a narcissist partner, he only loves himself, is unable to give, does not know how to bond, and how to be together?
In your relationship you may feel happy and satisfied, and perhaps you constantly seek attention, love, confirmation that a partner needs you.
And we often see that our partner does not value us and has no fear of losing us. And that would be the best case scenario.
The worst case would be that our partner takes us for granted, he insults you and treats you badly, uses you, does not want to marry you, does not care for you or he does not give you a status, and you turn into something between a furniture or a housekeeper and sometimes his sponsor and he is waiting for you to provide the money.
Such relationships are destructive, weary and exhausting. How do we stop these models and get out of this narcissist game?
Emotional dependence is no less strong than an addiction to drugs or alcohol. We understand that this relationship destroys us, but we cannot end it.
It is important to find out what reasons and what childhood traumas cause this behavior. Where did you lack love and protection and now you want it from your partners?
Constant anxiety and lack of understanding takes a lot of your strength and energy and leads to physical illnesses. Gradually your friends disappear, they are tired of saving you and then you are trying to give your love to children - turning them into neurotic and dependent people, similar to you. When a mother cannot be happy - the child doesn't know how to be happy either.
All questions related to narcissists and love dependencies, why do I not know how to build a mature relationship, we will work on the Webinar Narcissists and Love Dependencies.
This practice will help you see what is the mechanism hidden in you that attracts such a type of partner.
During the seminar:
Date: August 13th from 8p.m. to 10p.m.
Bonus: Men's shades of archetypes.
I will tell how neuroticism goes through every archetype and what the shades of archetypes are and how we provoke it and how to cure ourselves from pathological relationships.
Believe you can manage your life more easily than you think! Let's make a bold step of dependence towards freedom and happiness!
I am an expensive woman – from a Cinderella to a Queen
Have you noticed that we are often referred to as dear…
But are we really dear?
Do I really feel like this and do I really get the respect of something of value and importance?
Try to see your attitude towards this word: dear!
Say it a few times out loud: I am dear, I am dear, I am dear. Do you feel it? What do you feel?
When I did this practice, I felt like crying and I said to myself:
In my school there were always kids who were just perfect, perfectly dressed, they had perfect writing, and everything was right with them.
That was not the case for me, I always had stains on my clothes and my handwriting has always been bad.
And I almost stopped dreaming of one day being one of those perfect women, dear women.
I thought I will always be just a nerdy girl and others would point at her and laugh.
I worked a lot on this, I read, I went to seminars all the time, and step by step I moved towards this. And it all worked out. I can boldly say that at the moment I feel like a dear woman, as a woman, as a person and as a specialist. And other people consider me as that too.
What have I changed? I weight the same, I don't have richer parents and I still have my bad handwriting, but my thoughts are definitely different and this has led to that feeling of being dear!
What we will work with:
Perhaps this is the first thing you ever do for yourself.
The very purchase of something for yourself that will pick up you - is already a result!
Be ready to go to a hairdresser and make-up artist! Be ready for change and transformation!
You are number one! You are dear and you deserve high pay for your work, respectful attitude from your boss and customers, adoration by men and, of course, dear gifts from the universe!

People of a certain age sometimes find themselves in need of dental care involving dental crowns instead of a filling, or dental bridges to replace missing teeth. Understandably, in light of the present economy, many patients think first of the expense. But the fact remains that postponed care costs more in the long run, both financially and physically.
In the case of broken teeth, extensive decay or an old filling, a crown is intended to hold the remaining tooth structure together. After a root canal, enamel becomes especially brittle - another candidate for a crown.
A badly damaged tooth, left untreated, causes changes in the mouth that disrupt how the teeth work, chewing patterns, and jaw function. Normal eating habits may be inhibited. Tenderness forces the bite away from one side of the mouth and exerts undue pressure elsewhere. Why not just extract this troublesome tooth?
A missing tooth eventually spells oral disaster, meaning permanent changes to your bite. Because the mouth is dynamic, teeth on either side of an empty space will shift. The teeth next to them move, too. With all this movement, periodontal disease could invade soft tissues. Jaw misalignment, and the pain that goes with it, is likely. So tooth restoration to bolster neighboring teeth and keep the "architecture" of the mouth in good shape is the best course of treatment.
After fillings, crown and bridge work is our first line of defense against oral deterioration. This kind of dentistry brings a lot of satisfaction to both patient and dentist. A transformation happens. With the mouth functioning again, people feel better about themselves.
So call your cosmetic dentist today to find out how you can restore your mouth to total dental health. You'll look and feel better.
In dental materials, composite resins are just about the most exciting thing to come down the pike in a long while. Resins may well symbolize the value of long-term, persistent research. From humble beginnings in 1956, the search for an effective adhesive dental filling has culminated in resin materials - versatile, relatively strong, with cosmetic superiority. Quite a return from plastic mixed with glass beads and such.
What's amazing about filling a tooth with resin (vs. gold or silver amalgams) is the nature of the bond to the tooth. The enamel is first treated with a mild acid to create microscopic pores on the surface of the tooth. Once the resin is applied, a mechanical - not chemical - bond is formed. Sort of like dental velcro. Then the resin can be sculpted, tinted, and polished to look like the real thing.
So what do composite resins mean for cosmetic dentist patients? Let's count the ways.
The best bargain in cosmetic dentistry, and proven cavity fighters to boot, are pit and fissure sealants. Sealants are a composite resin painted on back teeth, where tooth decay typically occurs in children. One sealant session, with check-ups now and then, provides cavity prevention - indefinitely.
Dental bonding is an umbrella term for placing composite resin restorations, from tooth-colored inlays to reshaping chipped teeth. For the right candidate, bonding is a comfortable, quick alternative to dental crowns, and a real boon to simple cosmetic dental care procedures. Less of your healthy tooth is removed, so it's essentially a conservative tooth restoration procedure.
In adults, a receding gum can expose the roots of teeth, an uncomfortable situation at best. Along with other adhesives, we apply resins directly to the root surface to help prevent tooth decay, and make the teeth less sensitive to hot and cold.
Teeth straightening just became easier. We can use resins to bond braces directly to teeth, so heavy bands around teeth, in some cases, can be dispensed with. The new invisible braces, along with bonding, make adult orthodontics an appealing alternative to crooked teeth.
Well, not really. Composite resins may never replace old standby filling materials, especially on back teeth. But resins have taken their rightful place in cosmetic dentistry, complimenting metal amalgams, and they can only get better.

Working in the same environment day after day can get tiring, especially if you work in a drab environment. Taking the time to improve your work environment will enhance the motivation and effort you get from your employees.
It's been proven that our physical environment affects our mood, so it's essential to create a welcoming environment for all of your employees. In this post, we'll look at 7 different things you can do to bring positive energy into your office!
1. Add Extra Storage Space To Reduce Clutter
Extra storage is a necessity in every office. When you use storage to your advantage, it's easier to keep a clean and efficient workspace. If you have lots of blank walls, you can use mounted file folders to keep your documents organized. If you're in an office with a door, you can take advantage of the blank space on the back of your door.
2. Find Ways To Add More Light
Adding light to your work environment comes with many benefits. Proper lighting ensures your team isn't straining their eyes to read documents or work on their computer. Drab, cloudy lighting also makes people feel drowsy and even slightly depressed. Opening the blinds or adding a really bright source of light is an excellent way to add energy into your office. Proper lighting can dramatically change the energy in your office during dreary mornings.
3. Use Color To Control The Ambiance
Bringing in professional painters to change the colours in your office is a worthwhile investment. White and beige walls get quickly stagnant when you spend 8-9 hours in the same place every day. Painting a new colour will help people avoid feeling claustrophobic or depressed. Colours such as green, yellow and orange are excellent for adding energy to the workplace.
4. Get Ergonomic Office Equipment
Ergonomics is an underrated factor when it comes to enhancing your office. If everyone is hunching over in their chairs and dealing with back and neck pain, it's going to be hard to foster a positive environment. Getting an office chair that follows the natural curvature of the spine can completely change the comfort level around your office.
Another important factor to consider is to ensure your chair is highly adjustable. Ideally, you want your knees and elbows to rest at a 90-degree angle. You'll need adjustable armrests that keep the chair stiff yet comfortable enough to sustain an 8-hour workday.
5. Use Calming Scents
Another way to enhance the work environment is to control the smell. It's proven that certain scents have an effect on mood and productivity. A study done by the Takasago Corporation found employees to be 54% more accurate when inhaling a lemon scent. You can use essential oils to add a more natural scent to the environment as opposed to air fresheners which are full of harmful additives.
6. Eliminate Corporate Art For Images That Actually Inspire You
Most offices are full of corporate art that makes it clear the employees had no choice in choosing the artwork. If you're going to hang something up in your office, make sure it actually inspires you. You don't need to hang up a motivational quote, a beautiful landscape or another form of art that you appreciate works just as well.
If you're struggling to find art that you enjoy, you can make your own by enlarging one of your favorite pictures, quotes or excerpts from a book. Don't feel that you have to live with stiff corporate art in your office.

Choosing the proper flooring installation for Dallas/Fort Worth homes that have family members affected by limited mobility, is a task that requires a bit of thought. You have to consider how the flooring will affect a person's ability to operate mobility devices such as crutches, walkers, or wheelchairs, as well as balancing durability and safety.
Dallas is home to over 117,236 seniors over the age of 65. 65 is the age that people start to suffer greatly from the disastrous results of slip and fall accidents, some of which include hospitalization, and sometimes even death. Obviously, safety is key for this age group.
The advantages of a carpet installation for Dallas residents who utilize mobility devices, or are at risk of slip and fall accidents are manifold. For one, the surface is soft and cushions the impact of a fall. Carpet also offers superior traction to prevent slip and fall accidents in the first place. Finally, carpet transitions fairly smoothly from one room to another, making it less likely to snag or catch mobility devices.
For those with mobility devices that aren't as worried about slip and fall accidents, a hardwood flooring installation is an extremely attractive option. It is durable enough to hold up to the wheels and feet of chairs and crutches, transitions seamlessly from room to room to avoid snagging devices, and is extremely easy to maintain.
If traditional hardwood is outside of your budget, engineered hardwood flooring is on pretty much equal footing and looks indistinguishable from traditional hardwood.
Everyone's Needs Are Different
We know that each individual will have specific needs, and that a tiny blog piece could never cover them all. If you have questions about how to have those flooring needs met, Carpet World would love to help! Contact us today and arrange for a visit from our mobile showroom. We'll come straight to your home, help you assess your flooring needs from top to bottom, and help you get the floors you need at a price that's right.
Our mobile showroom offers coverage to the Dallas/Fort Worth area including Flower Mound, Frisco, Lewisville, and McKinney. Contact us today and find out why Carpet World is the area's leading flooring purveyor!

Capital acts as a buffer against losses and affords protection for members during periods of financial trouble for the credit union. Therefore, when it comes to measuring an an institution's financial stability, capital is important. When looking at safety and soundness, the higher the capital, the better.
On our test to measure capital adequacy, LOCAL 520 U A achieved a score of 30 out of a possible 30 points, exceeding the national average of 15.65.
LOCAL 520 U A's capitalization ratio of 30.00 percent in our test was above the average for all credit unions, an indication that it could have an easier time weathering financial trouble than its peers.
This test's purpose is to estimate how the credit union's loan loss reserves and overall capitalization could be affected by problem assets, such as unpaid loans.
A credit union with lots of these kinds of assets could eventually have to use capital to cover losses, shrinking its cushion of equity. It also means that there are likely to be many assets that are in non-accrual status and no longer earning money, resulting in diminished earnings and potentially more risk of a future failure.
On Bankrate's asset quality test, LOCAL 520 U A scored 36 out of a possible 40 points, lower than the national average of 38.09 points.
A below-average ratio of troubled assets of 0.00 percent in our test was potentially indicative of greater financial strength than other credit unions.
A credit union's profitability has an effect on its long-term survivability. A credit union can retain its earnings, increasing its capital buffer, or use them to address problematic loans, likely making the credit union better prepared to withstand financial shocks. Conversely, losses take away from a credit union's ability to do those things.
LOCAL 520 U A fell short of the national average on Bankrate's test of earnings, achieving a score of 4 out of a possible 30.
LOCAL 520 U A had an earnings ratio of 0.00 percent in our test, better than the average for all credit unions, a sign that it's running ahead of its peers in this area.
Bankrate.com's Safe & Sound Ratings provide a star rating system to evaluate the current financial status of financial institutions. The information gathered about banks, credit unions and thrifts is updated as set forth in the Terms of Use of Safe & Sound Ratings and Reports. The Safe & Sound Ratings information is grouped by categories of banks, thrifts and credit unions.
Bankrate.com evaluates the financial condition of institutions and assigns a one- to five-star rating for each with five stars representing the highest rating. Institutions with satisfactory performance will generally receive a rating of three or more stars. The majority of institutions fall into the three- to four-star range. An institution with an "NR" rating may be too new to rate or may have limited the publicly available information in their regulatory filings. The "NR" is not an indication of financial strength or weakness. The Safe & Sound rating is believed to be reliable, but the information is not guaranteed. In addition, events since the information was collected may have altered the institution's financial condition.

Johan Sverdrup resource estimate unchanged after appraisal well drilled
Norway's Statoil has completed drilling of an appraisal well on the Johan Sverdrup field in the Norwegian section of the North Sea.
The 16/2-22 S well, located at the field some 155 kilometers northwest from Karmøy, was drilled approximately two kilometers northwest of appraisal well 16/2-9 S.
The objective of the well was to prove petroleum in Upper Jurassic reservoir rocks (the Draupne formation) and to investigate pressure communication to the northern part of the Johan Sverdrup field.
The well encountered a total oil column of 16 meters, most likely in the Draupne formation, with alternating sandstone, siltstone, and claystone. The reservoir properties are moderate to poor, and they are not of the same quality as the main reservoir on Johan Sverdrup. The oil/water contact was not proven.
Based on preliminary calculations, the operator's resource estimate for the field will not be changed. The licensees will assess the result of the well as regards a possible future development.
The field, which was proven in 2010, consists of reservoir rocks from the Upper Triassic to the Lower Cretaceous. Before well 16/2-22 S was drilled, the operator's resource estimate for the field was 302 – 477 million standard cubic meters (Sm3) of recoverable oil.
The well was not formation-tested, but extensive data acquisition and sampling were carried out.
16/2-22 S is the 16th exploration well in production license 265 and the 31st on the Johan Sverdrup field. The license was awarded in the North Sea Awards in 2001.
Appraisal well 16/2-22 S was drilled to respective measured and vertical depths of 1963 and 1952 meters below the sea surface. The well was terminated in the granitic basement. The well has been permanently plugged and abandoned. Water depth at the site is 115 meters.
The well was drilled by the Deepsea Atlantic semi-submersible drilling rig, which will now continue to drill development wells on the Johan Sverdrup field.
Johan Sverdrup is dubbed as the largest offshore development in Norway in the past three decades. The field is operated by Statoil with partners being Lundin Norway, Petoro, Aker BP, and Maersk Oil.
Phase one of Johan Sverdrup development will consist of four bridge-linked platforms, in addition to three subsea water injection templates. The planned production capacity of the first phase is 315 000 to 380 000 barrels of oil equivalent per day.
Earlier this week Statoil announced contract awards for the hook-up and commissioning works on the giant Johan Sverdrup field to three Norwegian companies – Aker Solutions, Aibel and Kvaerner.

Although they look appetizing and may even taste great, restaurant take-out and grocery-store prepared meals are often full of unnecessary sugar, sodium, toxic vegetable oils (such as soybean and cottonseed oil), and factory-farmed meats and dairy. We know that home-cooked meals are almost always the more nutritious option, but given our jam-packed schedules, making the time to shop and cook, (and clean up afterward!) can be daunting. Healthy home cooking inevitably involves sourcing fresh produce — something you can aim to do monthly.
Once you make the commitment to reducing your consumption of take-out and prepared meals, a cabinet or pantry full of flavorful and nutrient-dense non-perishables will make cooking at home quicker and more manageable.
Pantry Essentials:
- Oils: Extra-virgin olive oil is a pantry staple for good reason; its health benefits and versatility make it a go-to choice for dressings and light-heat cooking. Additional oils to keep on hand include sesame oil, for its delicate, excellent flavor; avocado oil for its healthy fats and resistance to heat-induced oxidation, which makes it an excellent choice for cooking; and coconut oil, a stable fat (solid at cool temperatures) which is great for baking and for roasting vegetables or for stir-fries.
- Vinegars: Having a selection of vinegars on hand allows you to quickly dress your salads and vary the taste of your salad from day-to-day. Try apple cider vinegar, a healthy favorite with a rich flavor, as well as a good quality balsamic vinegar, red wine vinegar, and champagne vinegar.
- Sea salt, herbs and spice blends: High quality salts and herb blends can quickly make any meal shine. There are many advantages to natural salts vs. chemical table salt (NaCl), not to mention the allure of the taste and texture options from salts such as flaky Maldon sea salt, Himalayan pink rock salt, French fleur de sel and sel gris. Use a mortar and pestle to grind your salt with herb blends such as Herbs de Provence to flavor fish or chicken, or Garam Masala for Indian-style vegetables. Bring home herbal blends from your travels or from specialty stores to remind you of meals savored abroad. Popular blends include Chinese Five Spice Mix; Middle Eastern Za'atar; and of course, a variety of curries, which include the antioxidant-rich turmeric.
- Seeds and nuts: For a deliciously crunchy topping for salads and soups try toasting magnesium-rich pumpkin seeds in the oven or sautéing them in coconut oil or olive oil. Omega-3-rich walnuts are excellent for a quick protein-packed snack; almonds and pecans are also great raw or toasted for added crunch and flavor on salads and main courses, or for on-the-go snacking.
- Beans and Legumes: French or Beluga lentils have a delicate flavor and are relatively quick-cooking for a soup or a protein source to add to salads. Dried or canned cannellini beans or garbanzo beans can be used to add protein to a salad or to whip up a bean salad. Blended with garlic, olive oil and herbs and/or tahini and lemon juice, white beans make a great dip.
- Nut and seed butters: Almond butter, cashew butter, tahini, and sunflower seed butter (aka sunbutter) are a convenient and quick snack when spread on sliced apple or gluten free crackers; one tablespoon or two adds a tasty protein hit to smoothies. Tahini and lemon juice make an easy salad dressing or dip.
- Tomato and anchovy pastes add bold flavor to sauces and soups and keep indefinitely in the fridge, once opened.
- Asian fish sauce, wheat-free tamari and coconut aminos can be used to make a quick stir fry (with coconut and/or sesame oil) before those formerly fresh veggies in the fridge start to sag.
- When purchasing ketchups, look for corn syrup-free versions and/or no or low sugar options (such as Sir Kensington brand) and seek out mayonnaises with the best quality oils available, such as Primal Kitchen, made with avocado oil.
Canned Goods:
- Coconut milk adds a richness and creaminess to soups, stews and curries, and can be used for a simple dessert with fresh fruit or blended into smoothies for heft and taste. With all canned foods, look for BPA-free linings such as Native Forest coconut milk.
- Unsweetened canned pumpkin is a great addition to smoothies and baked goods and can be used in soups and stews for a smooth and delicious taste and texture.
- Canned wild salmon or sardines make a quick meal when blended with lemon juice and olive oil to add to a salad or they can be mashed and turned into patties with chopped onion to be sautéed for dinner. Although mercury can be a concern, canned line-caught tuna on occasion is also a great addition to salads when you need a quick hit of protein and don't have any fresh fish or meat in the house.
Baking Supplies:
- Almond flour is a delicious and protein-rich ingredient for grain-free baking; although it cannot be substituted cup-for-cup for wheat flour, there are many great cookbooks and online resources for almond flour baking, such as Elana's Pantry.
- Coconut flour is naturally sweet and full of healthy fiber and fats; it soaks up moisture in recipes and is used sparingly in baked goods — so a little goes a long way.
- For thickening gravies, sauces, and for baked goods, arrowroot flour and tapioca flour are excellent alternatives to cornstarch, which is refined and processed and offers zero nutritional benefit.
- Baking powder is essential for most baked goods; look for aluminum-free brands such as Bob's Red Mill.
- Unsweetened cacao powder makes a lovely hot beverage with nut milk or adds flavor to a protein shake or smoothie. Enjoy Life makes allergen-free mini chocolate chips which add sweetness to no-sugar desserts such as pumpkin muffins or zucchini quick breads.
- Sweeteners: pure maple syrup and raw honey are your best option for sweeteners in small amounts. If you haven't tried the herbal sweetener stevia yet, you can buy it in liquid or powdered form to be used in very small amounts for baking or to sweeten smoothies, chia seed puddings and other desserts.
Frozen Pantry Items:
- For super nutrition and gut-healing benefits, incorporate Bone Broth into your routine; it can be purchased frozen from a variety of online vendors and some specialty butchers and shops; heat on the stove for a simple soup with leftovers or veggies and keep in the fridge to make sauces and gravies.
- Fruit: frozen berries, cherries, and peeled, sliced bananas can make any healthy breakfast smoothie delicious and also make a great dessert, topped with canned coconut milk.
- Grassfed butter: keep Kerrygold brand butter on hand for your dose of healthy fats and to improve the taste of almost anything. Savor the taste of summer by making your own herb butters with chopped fresh herbs mashed into grass-fed butter and stored in an ice cube tray or other small container. Use the butter to sauté vegetables, cook fish or meats, or as a dressing on cooked dishes.
- Frozen green peas offer a simple way to add color and flavor to grain salads, stews or to make a simple side dish with herbed butter (see below) or olive oil and flaky salt.
- Store grass-fed meats, pastured chicken and wild salmon and seafood in your freezer so you can defrost and make a protein-rich meal with a bit of planning-ahead. Niman Ranch for meats and Vital Choice for seafood offer online shopping and excellent quality.

Flonase Child Dosage
For adolescents and children four years old and older, the recommended starting dosage of Flonase® (fluticasone propionate nasal spray) is one spray in each nostril once daily. If needed, your healthcare provider may increase the child dosage of Flonase up to two sprays in each nostril once daily. However, the Flonase dosage will be based on several factors, such as age, other existing medical conditions, and other medications being taken. For adults and children, the maximum Flonase dosage is two sprays in each nostril once daily.
Some general dosing guidelines include:
- Be sure to shake the bottle well before each use.
- Blow your nose before each dose. Breathe in gently while spraying the medication into your nose. Do not try to inhale the spray or breathe in too deeply, as Flonase works when it comes into contact with the inside surfaces of the nose, not the throat or lungs.
- Avoid aiming the spray toward the wall that separates your nostrils (in the middle of your nose, called the nasal septum). Some people find it easiest to avoid this by holding the bottle in the opposite hand (using the right hand to spray into the left nostril, and vice versa).
(Click Flonase Dosage for more detailed information about Flonase child dosage guidelines, including tips on how to effectively use this medication.)

Cowboys Head To San Antonio To Face UIW
The McNeese Cowboys head west for a meeting with the University of the Incarnate Word this evening, hoping to get back on the winning track. McNeese has lost 2 in a row for the first time since the end of the 2014 season. The Cowboys are 1-2 and 0-1 in conference play after dropping their SLC opener 31-28 to SFA last Saturday night. The Cardinals are also 1-2 and 1-1 in the conference. They fell at Nicholls State last week 35-28.
On paper, it's hard to imagine that the Pokes have lost 2 of their first 3 games. The offense has out-gained their opponents 472-311 in total yardage. They have run 272 plays to 176, and have controlled the ball for 38 minutes per game to their opponent's 22 minutes. The Cowboys have turned the ball over 3 times, which isn't much, but they have come at very bad times and have resulted in points against them.
UIW is led by QB Trent Brittain. He has completed 47 of 95 pass attempts for 708 yards, 6 touchdowns and 2 interceptions. His favorite receiver has been Jordan Hicks, with 11 catches for 210 yards and 1 TD. Broderick Reeves is the leading rusher with 130 yards on 40 carries and 1 TD.
This will be the third meeting between the two schools. The Cowboys have won the previous two games, including a 43-6 win last year. The game will be played at Gayle and Tom Benson Stadium on the UIW campus. Yes, the same Tom and Gayle Benson that own the New Orleans Saints!
Airtime is 5 with kickoff at 6 and can be heard on 92.9 The Lake, and on 929thelake.com.

The Guardian
"Ax's playing is always marvelously articulate and totally unfussy. Nothing is done for effect or to draw attention to the player rather than to what he is playing; though his range of touch and keyboard colour is consummately wide, it is never used cosmetically. "
Los Angeles Times
"His greatness, his overwhelming authority as musician, technician and probing intellect emerges quickly as he plays. Within minutes, we are totally captured by his intensity and pianistic achievement."
The New York Times
"Mr Ax…played with youthful brio, incisive rhythm, bountiful imagination, delicacy when called for and thundering power when the piano fought back."
The Washington Post
"Ax is an extremely satisfying pianist; he is at home in a wide variety of music and his pianism is always thoughtful, lyrical, lustrous."
Born in modern day Lvov, Poland, Emanuel Ax moved to Winnipeg, Canada, with his family when he was a young boy. His studies at the Juilliard School were supported by the sponsorship of the Epstein Scholarship Program of the Boys Clubs of America, and he subsequently won the Young Concert Artists Award. Additionally, he attended Columbia University where he majored in French. Mr. Ax made his New York debut in the Young Concert Artists Series, and captured public attention in 1974 when he won the first Arthur Rubinstein International Piano Competition in Tel Aviv. In 1975 he won the Michaels Award of Young Concert Artists followed four years later by the coveted Avery Fisher Prize.
Highlights of the 2019/20 season include a European summer festivals tour with the Vienna Philharmonic and long-time collaborative partner Bernard Haitink, an Asian tour with the London Symphony and Sir Simon Rattle, US concerts with the Rotterdam Philharmonic and Lahav Shani in addition to three concerts with regular partners Leonidas Kavakos and Yo-Yo Ma at Carnegie Hall in March 2020. Further participation in Carnegie Hall's celebration of Beethoven's 250th birthday will culminate in a solo recital in May preceded by recitals in Madison, Santa Barbara, Orange County, Washington, Las Vegas and Colorado Springs. With orchestra he can be heard in Houston, Baltimore, Atlanta, San Diego, San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York, Montreal, Philadelphia, Cincinnati and Indianapolis. In Europe he can be heard with orchestras in London, Frankfurt, Berlin, Rome, Zurich, Rotterdam and Tel Aviv.
Always a committed exponent of contemporary composers, with works written for him by John Adams, Christopher Rouse, Krzysztof Penderecki, Bright Sheng, and Melinda Wagner already in his repertoire, most recently he has added HK Gruber's Piano Concerto and Samuel Adams' "Impromptus".
A Sony Classical exclusive recording artist since 1987, recent releases include Brahms Trios with Yo-Yo Ma and Leonidas Kavakos, Mendelssohn Trios with Yo-Yo Ma and Itzhak Perlman, Strauss' Enoch Arden narrated by Patrick Stewart, and discs of two-piano music by Brahms and Rachmaninoff with Yefim Bronfman. In 2015 Deutche Grammophon released a duo recording with Mr. Perlman of Sonatas by Faure and Strauss, which the two artists presented on tour during the 2015/2016 season. Mr. Ax has received GRAMMY® Awards for the second and third volumes of his cycle of Haydn's piano sonatas. He has also made a series of Grammy-winning recordings with cellist Yo-Yo Ma of the Beethoven and Brahms sonatas for cello and piano. His other recordings include the concertos of Liszt and Schoenberg, three solo Brahms albums, an album of tangos by Astor Piazzolla, and the premiere recording of John Adams's Century Rolls with the Cleveland Orchestra for Nonesuch. In the 2004/05 season Mr. Ax also contributed to an International EMMY® Award-Winning BBC documentary commemorating the Holocaust that aired on the 60th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz. In 2013, Mr. Ax's recording Variations received the Echo Klassik Award for Solo Recording of the Year (19th century music/Piano).
A frequent and committed partner for chamber music, he has worked regularly with such artists as Young Uck Kim, Cho-Liang Lin, Mr. Ma, Edgar Meyer, Peter Serkin, Jaime Laredo, and the late Isaac Stern.
Mr. Ax resides in New York City with his wife, pianist Yoko Nozaki. They have two children together, Joseph and Sarah. He is a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and holds honorary doctorates of music from Skidmore College, Yale University, and Columbia University.

NEW YORK – April 5, 2019 – The Dodge Momentum Index increased 0.5% in March to 145.5 (2000=100) from the revised February reading of 144.8. The Momentum Index, issued by Dodge Data & Analytics, is a monthly measure of the first (or initial) report for nonresidential building projects in planning, which have been shown to lead construction spending for nonresidential buildings by a full year. The March uptick was due to a 2.8% increase in the commercial component of the Momentum Index, while the institutional component fell 3.0%.
The overall Momentum Index has essentially moved sideways and stayed within a very narrow band of activity since the fall of last year. This is highly indicative of where building markets currently are at this late stage of the construction cycle. While economic growth is expected to ease from 2018's strong pace, relatively healthy real estate markets fundamentals and continued support for public projects such as a schools and transportation terminals should enable planning activity to remain close to recent levels for the near term.
In March, six projects each with a value of $100 million or more entered planning. The leading commercial project was the $100 million Piazza at Tysons office complex in Tysons VA. The leading institutional projects were a $300 million neuroscience research building at Washington University in St. Louis MO and the $153 million Novant Health Medical building in Charlotte NC.

BRICS Move To Replace Dollar With "Super-Sovereign" Global Currency
Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa launch attack to to replace the dollar with an single Chinese denominated "super-Sovereign" global currency.
As China is expected to rise to the status of a financial super power within the next 8 years and eclipse the US economy by 2020 Africa becomes center stage in the greatest currency war the world has seen since the 1930s which is now shifting into overdrive.
Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa, collectively known as the BRICS nations, are moving forward with their plan to unseat the US dollar from its throne as the global trade currency and to replace it with a Chinese denominated "super-sovereign" international currency.
This Geo-political game to establish global monetary dominance is by no means limited to the attack on the US dollar.
Instead this is merely the first strike of a concerted campaign of worldwide economic Read more…
Wikileaks Discloses The Reason(s) Behind China's Shadow Gold Buying Spree
Wondering why gold at $1850 is cheap, or why gold at double that price will also be cheap, or frankly at any price? Because, as the following leaked cable explains, gold is, to China at least, nothing but the opportunity cost of destroying the dollar's reserve status. Putting that into dollar terms is, therefore, impractical at best, and illogical at worst. We have a suspicion that the following cable from the US embassy in China is about to go not viral but very much global, and prompt all those mutual fund managers who are on the golden sidelines to dip a toe in the 24 karat pool. The only thing that matters from China's perspective is that "suppressing the price of gold is very beneficial for the U.S. in maintaining the U.S. dollar's role as the Read more…
As The Dollar And The Euro Continue To Collapse, How High Is That Going To Push The Price Of Gold?
Right now, the global financial system is facing a crisis that is really unprecedented. The reserve currency of the world (the U.S. dollar) is collapsing and the second most powerful currency on the planet (the euro) is also collapsing. As the major paper currencies of the globe crumble, the hunger that investors around the world have for gold continues to grow. Today, the price of gold hit an all-time record of $1607.90 an ounce. But that record surely will not live for long. The truth is that gold has been steadily climbing for quite some time now. A year ago, the price of gold was hovering around $1200 an ounce and and many "mainstream economists" scoffed at the idea that the price of gold could go significantly higher. Well, nobody is laughing now. As colossal debt loads continue to crush both Europe and the United States, the euro and the dollar are Read more…
US raised debt ceiling 102 times – economist
President Obama has warned the US is running out of time to deal with its financial troubles – the Congress must raise the current $14.3-trillion debt ceiling again. And as Professor Rodrigue Tremblay told RT, this has become a tradition in the US.
The US repeatedly gets away with raising the debt ceiling, Rodrigue Tremblay told RT.
"This system that the US has, has been in place since 1917. They raise the debt ceiling each year, they have done it 102 times; eight times under George W. Bush alone. Most countries do not run their Read more…
Vladimir Putin Calls Bernanke A Hooligan, Angry At American Money Printing
Who would have thought that Ron Paul's ideological ally in his quest to take down the Chairsatan would be none other than the Russian dictator-in-waiting (or rather, in actuality), Vladimir Putin. In a speech before the of economic experts at the Russian Academy of Sciences, the Russian prime minister had the following to say: "Thank God, or unfortunately, we do not print a reserve currency but what are they doing? They are behaving like hooligans, switching on the printing press and tossing them around the whole world, forgetting their main obligations." What appears to have angered the former KGB spy is the end of QE2. According to RIAN: "Putin's comments came in the wake of the completion of the US' quantitative easing (QE) 2 program on June 30, in which the Federal Reserve bought $600 billion worth of Read more…
Beijing warned on dollar holdings
China is running a major risk in holding so many dollars because the US may deliberately devalue its currency, a senior Chinese official has warned.
The comments by Guan Tao, head of the international payments department in the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, knocked the dollar on Tuesday, adding to fears about the struggling US economy. The dollar fell to a one-month low against a basket of six leading currencies.
Pressure on the dollar has intensified amid heightened concerns that the soft patch in the US economy will ensure that the Federal Reserve sticks to its ultra-loose monetary policy in the near future.
Despite Mr Guan's concerns, which are often voiced in Beijing, analysts said that China had little choice but to recycle its vast foreign currency reserves into dollar-denominated assets. "The United States has adopted expansionary fiscal and monetary policy to stimulate economic growth," Mr Guan said in an article that was published on the website of China Finance 40 Forum, a Beijing economic think tank.
"The United States may find it hard to Read more…
IMF bombshell: Age of America nears end: China's economy will surpass the U.S. in 2016
For the first time, the international organization has set a date for the moment when the "Age of America" will end and the U.S. economy will be overtaken by that of China.
The Obama deficit tour
The Wall Street Journal editorial page's Steve Moore critiques the president's speeches attacking Republican budget plans.
And it's a lot closer than you may think.
According to the latest IMF official forecasts, China's economy will surpass that of America in real terms in 2016 — just five years from now.
Put that in your calendar.
It provides a painful context for the budget wrangling taking place in Washington, D.C., right now. It raises enormous questions about what the international security system is going to look like in just a handful of years. And it casts a deepening cloud over both the U.S. dollar and the giant Treasury market, which have been propped up for decades by their privileged status as the liabilities of the world's hegemonic power.
According to the IMF forecast, whomever is elected U.S. president next year — Obama? Mitt Romney? Donald Trump? — will be the last to preside over the world's largest economy.
Most people aren't prepared for this. They aren't even aware it's that close. Listen to experts of various stripes, and they will tell you Read more…
