My 200th Hub! Spreading Hub Love!
Wow how awesome is this?
Wow how awesome is this? I am so amazed!
My 200th Hub!
The hub has been good to me! All my followers and been great to me!
I STAND AMAZED!
I have been with the Hub for 11 months and Now I have 200 hubs!
Here are just a few of the wonderful hubbers that follow me and are amazing!
Frank Atanacio :Frank, all the way from Shelton, your writing and your poems are simply amazing, I always think you writing can’t get any better and then I read the next one! And Michelle loves you! Frank Your poems should be a movie script or they should be on CSI or LAW AND ORDER or CRIMINAL MINDS. What an exceptional writer you are my friend.
'I guess a little bit about me goes here.... Lets see, I was born in Hartford Connecticut. I enjoy writing dramatic poetry, and fiction. I love writing my Nick PT Barnum Stories.. The latest is titled'
When the Kingdom comes, God Will Understand!'
There are not many things in life that cause me to completely lose track of time, but writing is one of them. It has a stimulating, yet calming effect on me-an unlikely and enjoyable combination! The arts, animals,children and reading are some of my other loves. I published my first children's picture book in 2009 and it has been recognized by Mom's Choice Awards, Dove Foundation and Writer's DIgest. The name of it is "Anastasia Pickering. Anastassia's Rain". Please check out my website:www.anastasiapickering.com if you have a young child in your life. I look forward to writing articles for Hub Pages and hope you find them entertaining!'
Faith Reaper, Faith you are just brilliant in your writing and your imagery and videos are stunning and your hubs always seem to draw me in.
'I love to write poetry and what I call my "Boasting in the LORD" stories. Each one of us has a special gift or gifts given to us by God, and we are to use those very gifts to glorify Him. We all have those beautiful stories about how the LORD has worked in our lives, and those usually are through trials and tribulations. All of us should share those stories to, not only glorify Him, but to bless others in ways one may never know. We just need to put it out there, and allow the Holy Spirit to run with it. We should not be surprised when we face many trials, as He tells us this very thing in His Word. My given name means "reaper" or "harvester," which I love. So, that is how I came up with my hub name. Plus, I just threw in the Faith part because, well, I am growing in my faith everyday. I have faced many trials and tribulations in my lifetime, as we all do, but what I desire to do most is glorify Him and not myself. For the most part, I am a non-fiction writer. Last year, July of 2011, the LORD healed me of breast cancer, plain and simple, no doubt. One problem I have is that I have to drive an hour to and from work daily, and so I must find the time to write. I am looking foward to much feedback. I love serving and worshiping the LORD. I once witnessed a miracle of the LORD while serving in a women's prison ministry. I also saw the face of Jesus while serving the LORD in a personal ministry to the homeless or downtrodden. All of these ministries were definitely His ministries! I love children, and the LORD reminds us that we should not hinder the children in coming to Him.
I am not attempting to convert anyone to Christianity here, but I am merely telling my life experiences as they really happened.
I love the following quote by an unknown author:
"God makes a promise---faith believes it, hope anticipates it, patience quietly awaits it." Unknown'
tammyswallow , Tammy, all the way from North Carolina, You writings are visually and poetically astounding.. You always captured our hearts.
'Thanks for dropping by.. no one here is a stranger.. just a friend I haven't met yet! I have studied everything from Sociology, Spanish, to Literature and earned a BS in Pre Law. I work in the fields of human services and as a paralegal.
I am the mother of four children ranging from diapers to college.
My interests range from poetry, literature, music (I LOVE heavy metal and my kids always make me turn the music down), relationships, animals, animal rights, photography, sociology, psychology, parenting, Celtic and British Literature, Astrology, Fairies, and the Paranormal. I have a very warped sense of humor as you will see.
I love Hub pages because I enjoy being connected with others and humanity. I think we all have so much to share and teach each other.'
PurvisBobbi, Bobbi, all the way from Florida, Your hubs are amazing, your words always touch my heart.
'It will soon be fall in Florida and the green leaves will turn to hues of golden and amber, with splashes of crimson; to decorate our yard painting it a rainbow of autumn colors.
When the trees are bare only the Spanish moss will hang and sway with the sporadic breeze bringing us icy air from the north. Then we can take a deep breath into our lungs and feel the fresh cool air of winter that will follow soon.
I love all seasons in the countryside where so many wonderful neighbors live and care about each other.
Many birds will come to live in our yard from the north and we will feed and take care of them, as we do our squirrels and other out-door wild animals.
My loves are: Family which includes my pets, friends, writing, writing and writing more. I love to read and watch movies, cook and decorate. My hobbies are: Making jewelry, making new recipes and sharing with friends.
I have enjoyed writing on Hub Pages and meeting so many nice people and writers.
I never thought I would talk to anyone on the Internet I did not personally know---but I do now with Hub Pages and my Face Book, Google+ and Pinterest accounts. And I have learned so much from these people who have become an Internet Family.
So it is wonderful to be alive at this time in our World---and I hope you have enjoyed visiting with me for a while. Enjoy life and live each day as a cherished gift---because it is.'
Barbara (Bobbi) Purvis
teaches12345, Teaches, teaching is her passion, Thank you for your words of love in your hubs.
Teaching is my passion. My goals are to impart and inspire a love for learning, stimulate creativity and set the foundation for mastery and transference of skills.
My background includes a Masters in Business from Xavier University, National Child Development Associate and Advanced Director's Credential in Early Child Hood Development. I have worked in the business and educational field for over fifteen years and have enjoyed every opportunity. Currently, I teach at a local career college and this allows me to connect with active adult learners who will make a difference in their communities with positive leadership.
I believe in developing strong relationships and maintaining them. We grow stronger and live better with the support of a positive circle of relationships. I know my hub supporters will be a real strength to me as the years pass.
I have a solid faith in Christ who has sustained me through many hardships and created a real peace in my life as a result. I am looking forward to what the future may bring and hope to help others to discover real joy in their lives along the way (Jer 29:11). You can also join me on my blog spot, Seasoned Joy.

As a hub page author, I am learning great techniques in online writing, acquiring great skill in technology, and making great friends. .'
Mhatter99, MHatter, all the way from San Francisco, your poems are so romantic and funny. You always entertain me. Thank you.
'My plans were to become a music teacher. I got my BA degree at San Francisco State College. I somehow found myself working for an oil company. They sent me to the San Francisco Academy of Arts to learn graphic arts for the printing field. Somehow, this all lead to job with almost limitless creative potential. In addition I was encouraged to engage in charity work. I coached youth soccer for 13 years. I hold several youth protection certificates. I was active in a number of charities until 2010.
I have an eBook, “Well That Was That” for those who enjoy a good laugh at: https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/160146.'
Gypsy Rose Lee, Gypsy, all the way from Riga, thank you dear friend for always being there and being so loyal and writing such beautiful poems.
'I was born in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, N.Y. I now live in Riga, Latvia in a house in the subuurbs with my husband Martin and our wonderful cat Sid. I give private lessons to people in English and write articles on the Internet. My two greatest passions are writing and poetry. My poetic interest comes from my dad famous Latvian poet and writer Eriks Raisters.
Love all animals especially cats. Love nature and the world, happy things, colorful things and enjoy living life to the fullest.
I have great faith in the Lord and let Him guide me each day.
Hub Pages is a great community. Have made so many friends and I'm glad to know them each and everyone. I can share my creativity with others and I can learn from them and that is the greatest feeling.'
LaThing, Lathing,all the way from Northeast, U.S.A., thank you for Heavenly and beautiful hubs;
'Quite often I get asked about the reason behind my profile name. Here is where you will find the answer, My Encounter With Hub pages!
LaThing is a mother, a wife, programmer analyst by profession, but she decided to be a stay home mom and loves every moment of it!
Comes from a family of politicians, politics runs in her blood, so she chose to stay away from it! Loves the One Who created her, and chose not to discuss, or argue with others regarding this! Has seen a lot in her life, and has learned from the positive, and the negative experiences. A believer in the fact that everything happens for a reason, and we are product of our choices! And she Chose not to go into the philosophical aspect of it!
Joining hub pages was a coincidence, but has been a fun filled journey! She has met a lot of great writers, made friends, and has decided to stay away from making any enemies! :)
Whether you are a top notch writer, or just stepping into the realm of writing, this is a great place to be. Join us in this great journey where you can express yourself, publish your ideas, write poetry, work on some facts, or whatever tickles your fancy.'
ImKarn, Leslie, all the way from Canada, thank you for being so stunning! You are a shining STAR in the hub pages heavens!
'Punnacious Communicatrix Extraordinaire who freezes her skinny ass off in Canada!
I use humor and sarcasm to get me through the day - and the cold!
I adore my dog, tolerate my kids, and enjoy poker, Harley s, yoga, dancing, horses, shoes - and WORDS!
Words are sexier than Elvis and blue suede shoes combined! And - that's sayin' somethin' (corner of upper lip rises in perfect imitation of Elvis's derisive sneer..)!
I specialize in - or like to think I specialize in - psychology, fitness, current events, politics, fashion - and MEN!
My mission - which I have chosen to accept - is to learn, share, inform, amuse - and, hopefully - to make you think!
I try to be grateful every single day - for every single day! I believe that life's too short for envy and anger - and greed truly pisses me off!
My wish is that people could be kinder to one another, pull their heads out of their...iThingies..(and other places I'm too polite to mention) - and - oh, yes - dress better!
Now, is that too much to ask?
If you absolutely ADORE what I write - and I so hope that you do - feel free to share it with all your friends and neighbors!
And countrymen, for that matter!
I promise - I won't mind a bit!
Hope you're smiling!'
Curiad, Mark, all the way from California, Thank you for such wonderful hubs you produce!
'I am an energetic, outgoing individual that enjoys a variety of things. I have worked with photography for 30 plus years beginning back in the late 1970s doing in-home baby portraits, school photography and sports photography and even had my own small business. I enjoy flying light aircraft and hot air balloons and hold an FAA commercial pilot’s certificate. When I was younger, I enjoyed rock climbing, martial arts, bicycling and both making and listening to music.
I also enjoy writing and teaching and have been doing so for some years. I have spent 20 plus years working as an engineer in the building controls field and many of those years training clients in the construction, service and operation of these systems.
I have traveled the USA and been in almost every major city and many smaller ones in the process of his work, and have been from Fairbanks Alaska to Miami Florida. I have trained all types of people from contractors to scientists with Masters Degrees and PHDs.
My varied experiences give me a unique outlook on life and an ability to see “beyond” just the ink and paper. I seek the spirit in my work and strive to make each creation alive and speak a message.
One thing we all can do to help each other out is to Share good hubs with others. You can do this by clicking the “hub Pages followers” button or any of the social media buttons at the top right of every Hub.'

Professional Health Provider and Expert Author
'I am an established medical online writer with serious and diverse interests in mental health, health and wellness, and digital graphics. I have worked as a RN for over 25 years several specialties and am an educator for various universities on the West Coast. I completed a Masters in Nursing Research in 2005, and currently work as a freelance author for various magazines and webmasters. I have published academic writing in my nursing research field and have successfully transitioned as an authoritative writer with a friendly and stylish tone.
My strengths are in medical research and providing factual information with proper citations. However, I am equally skilled in writing informational articles that set an interesting and less formal style without losing the proper form and mechanics of grammar and punctuation. As an author for most of my career, I have extensive experience in writing and understand the value of instruction, and am dedicated to providing important and useful information to anyone in search of knowledge.'
BlossomSB, Blossom, all the way from Victoria, Australia, thank you for writing a winner hubs, beautiful and the spiritual thoughts.
'I've lived in a number of towns and countries with my husband, who was an Anglican priest, and family of five children, and have taught at all levels from preschool to university. We both began our working lives as primary school teachers and later studied together at the George Brown Missionary Training College in Sydney. We also both studied to be Lay Preachers. I retired from preaching after fifty years.
I have degrees in education, including School Librarianship, Theology and Psycholinguistics, and Applied Linguistics (ESL and EFL).
Now retired, I enjoy indulging in my hobbies of writing and painting in a variety of media. Oh, yes, I'm also involved in church activities as a Service Leader once a month, playing my flute in the Band, volunteer teaching ESL, and Christian Religious Education at my local primary school. I also enjoy gardening, knitting, embroidery, travel, and love catching up with grandchildren, friends and relative.
I have a Facebook fan page as an author:
My blog is where I try and share about Christian children's books, picture story books, Bible Study and Sunday School for kids, Christian bookshops and writing Christian books for children and other Christian things for children.
My books are available for sale on the site below. There is a place for comments, so please do have a peek and tell me what you think:
Hub Pages is great fun. If you haven't already joined, I recommend it. You can join by clicking here:
Rcrumple, Richard, all the way from Kentucky, I want to thank you for always entertaining me and making me laugh.. You are very special!
'Over the river and through the woods into the land of Oz.Add a hint of Tabasco Sauce, some onions, denominational religious conflict, political despair, highlighted with a touch of sarcastic humor and you've got the beginnings of where my mind could be on drugs.Eliminate the drugs, and who knows what's in store.
I was one of those kids that used to go to the library on Monday, check out three books, return them on Friday, and get two more for the weekend.The librarian knew me so well that she finally started allowing me to check out books from the adult side of the library when I was in sixth grade because I had run out of things to read on the kids side of the building.Then came high school in the 60's, sports, and political/ racial unrest experiences.Radio broadcasting, military, various business careers intermixed with stand-up comedy, back to business.Music, venomous reptiles, political analysis, and motivational self help publications filled in the free time, not to mention raising a family.
From Rhode Island to Indiana to Europe to the Mid East to New York to Chicago to Alabama and finally Kentucky, my experiences have enhanced my life and broadened my perspectives.Yet, I've always felt the loner even though I've never lacked for friends.
To travel into the realm of writing once again is like coming home.The trance starts and the keys depress, and I enter into a world created either by imagination, life's travels, or experiences past.Yet, before running the 100 yard dash, one must first remember how to take baby steps.Time is on my side, at least for now.
And remember, "You can't do it if you don't attempt it."
***I would like to express my gratitude to those that supported my Hub, "Escape From the Paranormal" in its Hub nugget Award. You are, and have always been more than gracious. Many Thanks***'
Eiddwen, Eddy my friend from Wales, I am still going to go see you one of these days, all of your hubs are written with amazing words and always presented so beautifully.
'I am a mother of six and grandmother of eleven beautiful grandchildren.
My hobbies are writing,reading,photography and exploring the Welsh countryside with my partner Dai.
I would like to add here that I have had to move and save all my previous hubs to edit ready to include in my next eBook and my novel which is at this moment in time about halfway to completion.
Therefore to all my friends old, new and yet to meet you are entering an new era of mine.
I hope you enjoy and here we go....................???!!!
I will write tributes from time to time in memory of my beautiful sister Val who passed over in 1999 and my daughter Erin who so tragically passed over in 2009 at the young age of 17 years old..
I have set up a trust fund in Erin's name with our only Welsh children's hospice and we have raised almost £4,000.
I am also living my dream by being successful in having two books published and another as we speak.
Published by Publish America is the first in my series of children story book consisting of two mischievous farm kittens getting into so many scrapes and adventures ;
This very first book is called
'Bobby and BIlly;Bobby's Lost Voice!!'
Below is the link to my book which is for sale on Amazon.
Another which has been accepted by Publish America and is currently being published as we speak.called.
'Sunshine Ray and I'.
This is a book of fifty poems in Erin's memory but I would like to add here that the poems are not all sad ;some are humorous;words of a grieving mother;inspiring,beautiful etc.
I hope that someone who is today walking on life's rough roads for any reason will find their much needed strength and solace from this book.
'My Beautiful Rock Rose'.
I have recently also published my very first eBook on Smash words 'Sunshine Ray and I' is fictional but based on true life.
One day out of the blue I decide to research the Native Americans ;mostly the Cherokees so this is what I did!!!
Slowly the deeper I went into their lives ;beliefs and faith I found that I could relate to them from a very deep level.
Below is the link for this book if you would like to read and follow!
I am now busy working on the second book in this series and I love every moment of doing so.
I hope that by sharing my grief and my adjustments so that I am able to cope will in turn help others .
Here is a hub which I wrote a while back and today I republish
As well as writing poetry and all else on here I also write on
"Expectance and acceptance " are two words which describe my adjustments.
I also try to live by ;
The Serenity Prayer.
"God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; the courage to change the things I can; and the wisdom to know the difference."
Before I end my updated profile I would like to share my new FB pages also:

GinaBina4, Gina my sweet friend all the way from West Tennessee. Your sweet poems are so beautiful. I can see God’s hands all over your poems. Keep up the great work.
'I am a married mother of 4 and grandmother of 1. Currently I am a stay at home mom. I love the Lord and want to serve him as best I can. He is so good to me and merciful. If I have talents,it is because of him. I am about to start looking for a job...EEK. I am new to the hub as far as starting to write. I don't know if I'll be very good at it but we'll see. I may be reading more than writing. Either way it goes,I'm excited! Good to be here!'
Sueswan, Sue, my friend, your poetry are always so Beautiful and profound my friend.
I am from Fort William(now Thunder Bay) Ontario.
I have been living in Toronto since 1976. Hated it at first but now I would not live anywhere else. Well, except for New York City and San Francisco.
Enjoy spending time with my family and friends. I am a big Elvis fan and attend many Elvis Tribute Festivals.
At a cocktail party, I am the wallflower, but if there is music I am the first one on the dance floor. :-)
I am pleased to have recently publish my first book , "Poetry From My Heart." http://www.lulu.com/shop/susan-sproull/poetry-from-my-heart/paperback/product-20305230.html'
Vincent Moore, all the way from Canada, thank you for being a class act indeed, and always brilliant poetry!
'Vincent Moore formerly the Saddlerider pens his thoughts about many things and has a style all his own. Sometimes, he parties with words excessively and it becomes necessary to publish quickly lest his work be lost in the dark corners of his room or his mind. Vincent will lead you into mysterious worlds that are strange yet somehow familiar, worlds that will leave you unsettled and breathless for more.
He was born and raised in Montreal Canada amongst the Irish, Brits, Italians and French. Point St Charles (commonly called The Point) was the Hell's kitchen of Montreal. He played, cried, laughed and fought on the street corners, survival was an instinct and watching each others back important.
He left home at 17 to find his way in the world, failure and success he had plenty of. He studied the Arts and loved to draw and paint. Took acting lessons and envied those on the stage under the bright lights and hoped to some day become an actor, writer, playwright or painter.
He has taken up the pen and found his way to Hub pages, enjoying the many talented writes of fellow hubbers. He hopes to contribute and find a place amongst you.The freedom of expression is important and to a very great extent we can practice it here.
A few months back he was inspired to put together a number of his pieces and publish them in Kindle format at Amazon and Smash words. He will be inserting the links to those books with each future poem he scribes at his account.
As well I will be posting most of my poetry at my blog site below. Please come over for a visit, leave a comment. I will follow you and continue to leave comments in your work here at the Hubs. My Poetry in Motion is a work in progress and it calls out to me to keep adding more.'
billybuc, Bill all the way from Olympia, WA., your hubs just keep getting better, and I want to thank you for being so inspiring.
'Born and raised in Tacoma, Washington, has lived in Washington, Oregon, Vermont and Alaska.
Graduated from Seattle University with degrees in Marketing and Economics and from the University of Puget Sound with a degree in Education. Eighteen years as a classroom teacher and held twenty-five other jobs over the years. Also owned and operated three businesses.
But that is all fluff; window-dressing and unimportant when compared to the real things in life.
One son, Tyler, age 27; single but in a serious relationship that will last a lifetime. A student of life, interested in anything and everything; hobbies include hiking, fishing, exploring, reading, gardening and of course, writing.
Self-published my first novel in October, 2011, and currently working on several other writing projects.
Writing at one time was a hobby; it has since developed into a passion. I try to capture the emotions in life but I have a long way to go; I try to find humor in most situations; some would say I have a long way to go in that as well. I do know that writing, like music and art and photography et al, should move the reader. Good writers actually stun their readers and that is what I hope for. Thank you for following along and may the wind always be at your back.
I will leave you for now with a quote that has meant so much to me over the years...from Tennyson:
"To strive, to seek, to find...and not to yield."
And why, you ask, does that quote mean so much to me? I guess I would say because it says never give up. There are things in life worth going the distance for and if you are lucky enough to find that special thing, special someone, then you damn well better give it every ounce of effort. Life was not meant to be a spectator sport
I have been fortunate. In 2012 I won Hubbie Awards for Most Helpufl Hubber and for The Most Beautiful Hub. Those awards mean a lot to me because they were voted on by my peers. I love Hub Pages!

scrittobene, Maria, all the way from Melbourne Australia, You've captured our hearts with your poetry. Thank you for wonderful hubs.
'"Scrittobene" means, "written well" in Italian. I enjoy writing poetry and song lyrics and am proudly Australian. I mostly like to write about what I know and what I've experienced. Most of my work is loosely based on real events I have lived through and sometimes survived, emotionally, spiritually, physically or mentally.
Many of my friends on FB are Bob Dylan fans like me. I enjoy sharing my passion for Dylan with people around the world mostly from the USA and Europe. I was introduced to Dylan's poetry and music 21 years ago and have listened to his work each and every day since.
This year I have taken an interest in writing song lyrics. I have various musician friends on FB who have graciously offered to put music to my words. You can listen to some of my collaborations on my You Tube Channel. It's all for fun really - I just find it thrilling when music is added to my "poetry":
I run a FB group called "Music & Writing Group". This is a group for all who wish to share their favorite music, post their original compositions and also promote their favorite pieces of writing/poetry from Hub Pages. Please feel free to join me there:
Thanks for stopping by and/or following me.

writer20; Joyce, all the way from Southern Nevada. What awesome and wonderful hubs. I always enjoy them. Thank you
'I have made many friends on hub pages and love to read their hubs and learn. I have found inspiration in some of them that prompted me to write.
I started writing about 6 years ago putting my feelings on paper which allowed me to vent my pent-up anger.
I then wrote two detective stories which were edited and shelved.
I also write children’s stories mostly about cats and dogs, there are other stories about birds, ducks and other animals all talking like you and I.

RANDOLPH – A bridge on I-86 in the Town of Randolph could be renamed in memory of a local Vietnam War Veteran.
A bill, sponsored by State Senator George Borrello, aims to rename the bridge spanning over Schoolhouse Road in Randolph as the “Sergeant David Lockwood Memorial Bridge.”
The Randolph Town Board first brought the idea forward last year.
A graduate from Randolph Central School, Lockwood was drafted into the U.S. Army in 1966.
While overseas, he won several medals for his service including the Good Conduct Medal, Silver Star with two Oak Leaf Clusters and Expert Rifle Badge, among others.
Prior to his service in Vietnam, Lockwood was a carpenter’s assistant working on the I-86 project, septically construction of the very bridge that would be renamed in his honor.
The American Hero died in 2018.
The measure now heads to the State Assembly after passing in the Senate last week.

VICTORIA – The Canadian Premier League’s #GotGame Open Trials have officially wrapped following yet another impressive showing in the seventh and final stop, Vancouver Island, and for Pacific FC assistant coach James Merriman, the focus now shifts away from unearthing talent to actually bringing those identified players on board.
Over the last two months, the CPL’s collective coaching staffs have converged in seven different cities across Canada, conducting the tryouts, swapping notes, sharing their takes, and whittling down individual lists of more than 220 trialists from each stop to further assess talent.
But that collective approach now ends, and for Merriman, friendships forged over football and frequent flyer miles must now be put aside – players can only sign for one team, after all.
“The staff amongst the CPL has a good connection and the coaches all have good relationships, which is going to help build the league – especially at the start – so that part has been excellent,” Merriman told CanPL.ca, when asked about the change in tone as the coaches began considerations toward the final watch list of trialists.
“You’re starting to see (the competitiveness) a little bit more now because obviously we’re building out our teams and, especially when you’re looking at players and talking about players in the Open Trials, you can definitely see (the rivalries) grow. But it’s all in good spirits. We all get on really well. It’s not a problem, it’s natural. This is sport.”
While the CPL’s coaches have had to strike balance between openness of ideas for the benefit of narrowing down individual city player pools, not every opinion has been disclosed.
It’s no stretch to imagine that the coaches have kept some information closer to the chest as the trialists impress in-game.
For Merriman, the last stop in Victoria provided he and Pacific FC head coach Michael Silberbauer to take a first-hand look at some of the players who have previously expressed interest in playing for their club.
The results left them pretty pleased.
“We didn’t know exactly how we were going to see (local players) and assess them,” Merriman explained. “It’s always hard with video footage alone. When they were reaching out to us, we thought this might be the best way to see them live, and for Michael to see them live, which has been difficult when he’s still in Switzerland. Some of them have shown well.”
Before the league invites trialists to preseason, the coaches will converge once more in Vancouver to watch the U SPORTS National Championship, held at the University of British Colombia (Nov. 8-11). It’s a chance to scout out even more young talent ahead of the inaugural CPL-U SPORTS Draft (Nov. 12) and for Merriman, it’s also an opportunity to look outside of the areas he’s already scouted.
“I’m familiar with the west coast teams, UBC, UVic, TRU, Trinity, I’ve seen all those teams play, and I’ve seen SFU play as well, but I haven’t seen the east coast teams as much, other than some video,” Merriman said. “So, just seeing it, being there live, and connecting with some of those coaches as well, I’m looking forward to it. I think it’s going to be a really good week.”

Soaps and Detergents STSE Report
Many people make the mistake of thinking that soap is just something that cleans their bodies, clothes and dishes, but little do they know that there is so much more. For instance soap has been used since the ancient times and where made popular in Italy and Spain during the 8th century and by the end of the 13th century it was also available in France. In 1783, a Swedish chemist accidentally made the reaction that happens in today’s boiling process of making soap. Then in 1823, another chemist, this one French, discovered the chemical nature of ingredients of soap. Within soap there is a mixture of sodium or potassium salts of fatty acids which comes from oils or fats by reacting them with an alkali at 80°–100 °C in a process known as saponification. Soap molecules happen to be similar to oil molecules which are long and stringy but soap molecules have different ends. The front end of the soap molecule attracts water which makes that side hydrophilic (water-loving). The other end of the molecule is attracted to oil which also makes it hydrophobic (water-hating). In dirt there is a slightly oily coating, and since one side of a soap molecule latches on to oil it would latch on to the dirt and be washed away by the water since the other side is attracted to the water molecules. Also what makes soap molecules so unusual is that it disrupts the surface tension of water by crowding around the water with their hydrophilic side which lessens the waters ability to stay stuck so tightly together. Surprisingly soap isn’t only used for household purposes; they are also used to keep bugs off of plants by mixing it with water and spraying the on the leaves, removing wallpaper glue, and lubricates the metal rails of sticking desk drawers. They can also solve a big summertime problem for most people which are outdoor ants. By mixing a solution of half water and half white vinegar with a dash of dishwashing liquid, then spraying this...

Two-pronged policy in VLAM annual programme
The Flemish Agricultural and Fisheries Marketing Board (VLAM) is again pursuing a two-pronged policy this year. Export promotion to third countries remains a hot item, but Flemings are being served up an extra dollop of culinary chauvinism. Flandria advertising is using the slogan: "Driven by our craft!'.
The Asian market is beckoning
The Flemish Agricultural and Fisheries Marketing Board (VLAM) is continuing its strong focus on export promotion in 2016. Since Russia closed its borders to Western agricultural and food products, the sector is more aware than ever of the importance of a good spread of markets. About a quarter of the budget is spent by VLAM on B2B actions abroad, the aim being to focus buyers' attention on Flemish agricultural and horticultural products. The Asian market is beckoning and efforts are therefore being concentrated on contact days and attendance at shows in that part of the world.
VLAM also has its sights firmly set on Canada. The Canadian food safety authorities gave the go-ahead last year for imports of Belgian pears. In terms of the promotion of fruit and vegetables, the US, Russia, Japan, India, Kazakhstan and the United Arab Emirates are also target markets outside of Europe.
The calendar for 2016 is packed with 22 international trade shows, as well as the organisation of market prospecting trips to India, Bulgaria, Serbia, Slovakia and Hungary. VLAM wants to match the export effect of the various sectors better, and where possible, adopt an approach that spans the sectors. Each sector has its own export strategy worked out, new markets are defined and operational programmes worked out. VLAM's own in-house export unit provides the necessary basic information required in order to achieve the ambitions effectively.
Core markets in Europe
VLAM is also continuing to work within Europe on developing existing markets and searching for new sales areas. The core markets for the promotion of fruit and vegetables remain France and Germany. In both these countries, the Flandria brand is drawn to purchasers' attention all year long. The promotional campaign for Conference pears in Germany has been extended by one year and all Germans will be able to sample our pears. Attendance at trade shows in Berlin (Fruit Logistica) and Madrid (Fruit Attraction) remain an important plank in promotion at European level. Bulgaria is the new market being explored within the EU in 2016.
Joint show stand at Fruit Logistica
To VLAM, the search for new markets is also a matter of good cooperation with the Flemish export platform Flanders Investment & Trade (FIT). A joint show stand is in the pipeline, to be run for the first time at Fruit Logistica in Berlin (3 to 5 February). VLAM is handling the promotional side for fresh products (vegetables, meat, etc.), while FIT is dealing with Flemish processed food products, in close collaboration with businesses and exporters.
75 per cent of the budget is used for promotion on the domestic market. Unlike abroad, where actions are focused on B2B, the domestic campaigns mostly target consumers. This year, VLAM is continuing to remind Flemings about their own delicious home-grown food heritage ('lekkers van bij ons'). Consumers can enjoy the promotion of good, honest, down-to-earth home-grown products via radio, TV and the daily and weekly press. The flagship at home is the cookery platform 'Lekker van bij ons', plus the adverts. Every year, VLAM's recently revamped cookery platform reaches a million cookery fans.
A whole battery of promotional actions will be rolled out per sector for 2016. Flandria has developed into a quality reference for fruit and vegetables. This quality is communicated through the message: 'Flandria is fresh, sustainable and tasty'. This is the result of the growers' hard work. So the message is also 'Heart and soul for our style!'. For the retail side, personal appointments are made and promotional campaigns matched to their communication channels.
Also in 2016, the fruit and vegetable sector will be making funding available via VLAM for the school fruit campaign sponsored by Europe. This allows schools to distribute fruit and vegetables every week to school students at an affordable price.
European subsidies are more and more important in the funding of promotional campaigns. From 2016, the cofinancing percentages go up to 70 and even 80 per cent for export promotion in third countries. In addition, the EU is releasing more money for the promotion of agricultural products. By 2020, there will be an annual budget of 200 million euro, easily three times what it was until recently.

You read that correctly. Voters in Oregon passed sweeping gun legislation which amounts to a gun ban! Ballot Measure 114 passed by a vote of “50.7 % For” and “49.3% Against,” with 30 of 36 counties voting against the measure. As usual, the counties filled with liberals made this unconstitutional legislation into a law of the state. There’s your democracy at work folks! Two wolves and one lamb voting on what’s for dinner, aka mob rule.
Several Oregon sheriffs are refusing to enforce the law, and one filed suit against the measure as it is unconstitutional, and I thank them.
The measure prohibits the sale, purchase, or possession of magazines holding more than 10 rounds, establishes a registration database (for later confiscation), and requires more background checks, more fingerprinting, and more safety training. Finally, the measure deals the death blow for gun owners: an unconstitutional Permit to Purchase a firearm system, which by the way does not even exist at this time. What part of “Shall not be infringed” do you not understand?! My permit to purchase is the 2nd Amendment to the United States Constitution!
The law goes into effect on December 8th when the Oregon State Police is tasked with the implementation of the permit system. Gun owners aren’t holding their breaths while the State Police get the program up and running; owners are on a firearms buying spree.
Unfortunately for Oregon gun owners, the current chaos is preventing them from buying guns. Oregon State Police normally process 850 background checks per day. The number is now approximately 4,500 a day and climbing, and as you can imagine, has created quite a backlog. Even if you purchased a gun before the December 8th deadline, the new law requires you to show the dealer your permit to possess the gun before they can transfer your purchase to you! Thus, you now have a de facto gun ban in the State of Oregon!
They’re coming for your guns Folks!
That’s all for now folks! Please keep sending in your questions, tips, and article ideas. And as always – “Let’s Be Careful Out There.”

Sophos targets mid-market with security-as-a-service offering
By Gabey Goh February 13, 2014
- Sophos Cloud security-as-a-service offering rolled out in SEA in January
- Allows SMEs especially to beef up security against today's targeted attacks
IT is clear that hackers are becoming increasingly sophisticated in their attacks, shifting toward more targeted approaches aimed at getting specific information.
In an interview with Digital News Asia (DNA), Sophos' Asean director of sales Sumit Bansal said that hackers are not just being a nuisance anymore and are after specific information or targets, usually financial data or corporate information that they can sell to competitors.
“They’ve become very sophisticated and are using some of the known technologies, like botnets and malware, in trying to obtain that information.
“You also see that information about security breaches in the press, with companies like Target and Sony being hacked or government websites being attacked to make a statement,” he said.
With more sophisticated attacks becoming the norm, enterprises are increasingly looking to beef up security measures.
According to research firm Gartner, the worldwide security technology and services market is expected to grow to more than US$86 billion by 2016 as companies continue to expand the technologies they use to protect critical data.
Research firm IDC reported that the Asia Pacific (excluding Japan) IT security products (software and hardware) market had revenues of US$3.6 billion in 2012, up from US$3.2 billion in 2011.
"We anticipate that the overall market will increase to US$6.2 billion in 2017, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.4%. The security appliance market [is expectred] to grow at a CAGR of 11.8% and the security software market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 11.1% through 2017," Naveen Hegde, research manager, Asia Pacific Infrastructure Software at IDC, said in a report issued by the firm.
“Many organisations continue to prioritise security within their overall IT budget. With advanced targeted threats and the issue of securing the end-user a growing concern, these discussions underscore the urgency of the challenges the convergence of mobility, social and cloud services are presenting to the current security environment. Compliance is also another key driver in the security market,” he added.
In an interview with ComputerWeekly, Ruggero Contu, research director at Gartner, said consistent increases in the complexity and volume of targeted attacks, coupled with compliance-related issues, continue to support security market growth.
Analysts have also noted that mobile security, big data and advanced targeted attacks are the main forces shaping the security technology market. In addition, changes in how security addresses employee-owned consumer devices in the enterprise creates opportunities for technology service providers.
But while large enterprises are increasingly paying more attention and pouring more money into cyber-security, not all companies have the resources to do the same, and this is especially true for small and medium enterprises (SMEs).
In a bid to address the pain points and needs of the mid-market segment, last November Sophos announced a strategy to deliver cloud-managed security solutions that it said would appeal to organisations seeking a simpler approach to IT security.
The launch of Sophos Cloud is the first step in the IT security and data protection company’s strategy of cloud-enabling its entire portfolio, although it said it would continue to innovate and extend its on-premise portfolio, giving IT professionals choice in how to best manage security in their environment.
Making security accessible via the cloud
January marked the official launch of the Sophos Cloud Security-as-a-Service offering in South-East Asia, after it was first rolled out in the United States and Europe.
“We’re trying to bring all we do onto the cloud, enabling companies that have limited IT personnel with simple solutions for their security needs,” said Sumit (pic), who was in Kuala Lumpur recently for an industry seminar introducing the new offering to customers and partners.
Sumit said that South-East Asia is the perfect region and market for a security SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) offering, claiming that customers briefed on Sophos Cloud are really excited about having the option to outsource their endpoint security to a trusted brand such as Sophos.
“Our long-time enterprise customers, which are happy with our enterprise products, are excited with a more cost-effective option to move to the cloud. It’s easy to trial products and see how they compare. Our partners as well have been really excited about it, as they can manage it on behalf of customers as it supports multi-tenanted accounts,” he added.
With the management console hosted on Sophos Cloud, there is no server setup and service can be deployed instantly, providing complete security coverage everywhere, the company claimed. It is intended to deliver all the essential endpoint protection a company needs, without any of the complexity traditionally associated with security management.
“A cloud-based service means customers don’t have to invest in servers or management consoles. We have designed it to be easy to deploy security policies to end-users, to manage and deliver everything through the cloud.
“Companies that want to try it out can go online, sign up using a credit card, and start using the service immediately. We’re also very focused on our channel partner ecosystem and will be working with our partners to make the shift to cloud happen with support,” said Sumit.
He added that the service is ideal for the mid-market segment, where companies with 200 to 2500 employees will find the service, which is priced on a monthly billing cycle, “fair and cost effective.”
“In most mid-market companies, the problem is that there is usually only one IT person managing everything, which is why automating a lot of the processes involved is a core focus for us,” he said.
Sumit said that users also cannot be expected to protect themselves by just manually applying security measures or updates. The rapid pace of change in the security space means that more and more companies will need to rely on a solution that is mostly automated and constantly updated.
“With Sophos Cloud, we currently offer a light code agent for endpoint security, anti-malware tools, network protection and device control capabilities. A key feature is the capability to set user-based management, allowed IT to create different policy groups for different departments, from finance to sales and human resources.
“Our approach is to simplify the security process, and make it an automated process for people in terms of upgrades and protection. It is also to offer IT with limited maintenance resources, better visibility into their networks and the ability to identify those who are not complying with security policies,” he added.
Sumit said that over this calendar year; Sophos will be adding more features to the cloud product until it is on par with its traditional end-point product.
“Right now, some features are not included yet but our roadmap is gearing towards that. Our overall roadmap for our cloud security offering is to first merge our end-point solution with our mobile device solution, followed by the addition of encryption technology into it which is already available in our non-cloud offerings,” he said.
The company also hopes to eventually merge its cloud-based network security console into the Sophos Cloud portfolio.
“The target is to offer by the end of 2014 a complete cloud console for end-to-end security teams. We don’t want to kid ourselves thinking we can do it all at once and are instead doing it in stages. We’re quite excited about the journey and already seeing a steep uptake in markets we’ve launch Sophos Cloud in,” Sumit claimed.
Given the growing concerns over data sovereignty and privacy, when asked where the data resides, Sumit said that Sophos current offers its customers a choice between Europe and the United States during the setup phase.
“I believe that if we can satisfy the privacy concerns of the European Union, we can also do so for Asia. It’s not a certainty at this point but if there is a good uptake in the region, we could see another data centre being based out of Singapore or [elsewhere in] this region to cater to customers,” he added.
Pricing for Sophos Cloud starts at under US$30 per user per year for a 100-user company. For more information, click here.

Stephon Clark, 22, was fatally shot and killed by Sacramento police in his own backyard after his cell phone was mistaken for a weapon.
Police were responding to a report of someone breaking into cars nearby. The suspect was described as a 6’1 man wearing a black hooded sweatshirt and dark pants, hiding in a backyard. According to the NY Daily News, the departments helicopter saw Clark in his backyard and told deputies that he had shattered a window with a tool bar.
When police arrived to the scene, they approached Clark, believing he was armed with a gun, but it was actually his cell phone.
“The officers believed the suspect was pointing a firearm at them. Fearing for their safety, the officers fired their duty weapons striking the suspect multiple times,” the police department said in a release. Clark was pronounced dead at the scene.
The cell phone was the only object found at the scene. Clark’s grandmother was home at the time and heard the shots being fired. She nor her husband heard any police warnings or commands before hearing the gunfire. The officers involved were wearing body cameras and that video is expected to be released possibly in the next 48 hours, along with the audio from the helicopter.
Both officers have been given a paid administrative leave.

WRU consider dual-contracts for Wales stars
March 30, 2012

Wales' Grand Slam winners could be offered bulked up deals part-funded by the Welsh Rugby Union in order to prevent them from being lured overseas, according to reports.
A host of Wales internationals already play in France and there are deep fears that the likes of Alex Cuthbert, George North and Sam Warburton could be tempted by big-money contracts on offer in the Top 14 and Aviva Premiership. Therefore WRU bosses are considering supplementing the contracts the players have with the struggling regions in what would effectively be dual-contracts.
The WRU and regions are awaiting a report into the finances of the Welsh game by Price Waterhouse Coopers and Walesonline says they will not go public with the plans until the findings are published. While IRB regulations safeguard the release of players for international fixtures, the WRU have less control over the welfare of foreign-based players and their participation in training sessions that fall outside the international windows. The WRU and regions are also eager to retain Wales' top talent in order to maximise interest and crowds for the domestic game.
If the WRU did supplement players' regional contracts then the governing body could gain greater access to the players and have more influence in how many games they play for their regions. While the regions have previously fought this issue, they are reportedly now ready to negotiate if it means being able to hold on to their best players.
Regional Rugby Wales chairman Stuart Gallacher said the subject would form part of scheduled discussions between the regions and the WRU after the publication of the Price Waterhouse Coopers report. "Everyone is aware that we are just about completing that review," said Gallacher told Walesonline. "When it is completed we will sit down with the WRU to discuss all facets of the professional game. That will include payments to players."

BUSINESSES say Woodstock’s future as a market town is threatened by the closure of one of its two remaining banks.
Chris Bayliss, chairman of traders’ group Wake Up To Woodstock, said: “Our worry is that once one bank goes, the other may close.
“It is another hammer-blow for Woodstock as a surviving market town.’’ The Woodstock NatWest is one of 44 RBS branches closing across the UK. It leaves just one bank, Barclays, in the town.
The closures come after RBS said it planned to slash more than £5bn over the next three to four years after slumping into the red by £8.2bn in 2013.
Mr Bayliss, owner of the Real Wood Company in Oxford Street, said the town had recently lost its DIY store and butcher and the closure of NatWest on May 28 would be a further setback.
“We are not big enough to survive on our own. We depend on the surrounding villages, and this is another reason for people not to come here. It’s a great shame. I’m not confident we will be able to overturn the decision, but we want to make some form of protest.’’ The group is asking West Oxfordshire District Council not to allow more retail outlets to convert into homes, he said, and would oppose any change of use for the historic NatWest building.
Florence Sibourd, who runs French boutique Devernois, said: “It is not good for the town. If there are fewer services in the town, it means less footfall for retailers.
“We are all worried. I am starting to look at other places because I don’t know what will happen if everyone closes down.’’ Chris Pomfret, of rural group buying organisation Community Buying unLimited, said his clients had put petitions in village shops and in Woodstock.
He said: “Everyone is signing. Other communities have lost their banks and it’s not good news. Businesses have lost money and vulnerable people are left out. It’s important that people get excited because it won’t be long before Barclays closes.’’ He has written to his local MP, Prime Minister David Cameron, and to the Duke of Marlborough.
The bank has told customers they can pay cash or cheques into the Post Office under a special arrangement starting at the end of the year.
But Gordon Hollis, of the Royal British Legion, said the Post Office was small and often had long queues, which disabled and elderly people found difficult.
“A lot of our members live in villages like Wootton, Stonesfield, Combe or Bladon. They have nothing in those places so to close this bank is the last straw.’’ RBS spokeswoman Sarah Binnie said: “More and more of our customers are using alternative ways to bank with us, such as online and telephone banking, or using their mobile phone. As a result, we’ve seen the number of people using the branch fall by almost 30 per cent over the last few years.’’


An intermediate appellate court has upheld the dismissal of a $38 million lawsuit filed by a class of Maryland taxpayers who sued the state comptroller after the U.S. Supreme Court struck down the state’s “piggyback tax.”
The Court of Special Appeals found, in an opinion filed last week, that the taxpayers must exhaust administrative remedies with the Maryland Tax Court first and should have filed suit in the tax court instead of the circuit court.
“For our purposes, it is evident that the General Assembly intended to remove the adjudication of refund appeals from the jurisdiction of the circuit court and maintain exclusivity of those issues within the Tax Court,” wrote Judge Lynne A. Battaglia, sitting by special assignment, for the unanimous three-judge panel.
The plaintiffs claimed the state wrongly changed the law to lower the amount of interest it would owe people who became entitled to tax refunds after the Supreme Court, in May 2015, found unconstitutional a state law barring Marylanders from deducting from city or county taxes any income tax they paid to other states on money earned there.
“We really always thought this was a case that should be resolved by the Court of Appeals,” said Andrew D. Levy, of Brown Goldstein Levy LLP in Baltimore, one of the plaintiffs’ lawyers, on Wednesday, confirming his client would be petitioning for review with the state’s highest court.
“We’re obviously disappointed and we would’ve liked to have prevailed in the Court of Special Appeals,” Levy said.
Following the high court’s decision in Maryland Comptroller v. Wynne, lawmakers changed the law by lowering the amount of interest the state would pay on tax refunds from 13 percent to 3.25 percent and applied it retroactively to people who requested tax refunds before 2014. The plaintiffs’ lawsuit, filed in November 2015, alleged the amended law violates the takings and due process clauses of the U.S. Constitution.
But Baltimore City Circuit Judge Yvette M. Bryant dismissed the lawsuit in January 2018, holding the plaintiffs had to exhaust administrative remedies first and should have filed suit in Maryland Tax Court instead of the circuit court. Bryant ruled the lawsuit did not satisfy requirements for a class action even if the case could have been heard in circuit court.
Levy argued that the case is appropriate for class-action status because, as Bryant acknowledged, many of the claims would not be viable individually because of the amounts at issue.
“It’s neither practical nor feasible for thousands of these claims to have been brought in tax court,” Levy said Wednesday. “If the Court of Special Appeals is right that these claims had to be exhausted in the tax court, literally thousands of Maryland taxpayers would be left without a remedy.”
Judges Kevin F. Arthur and Douglas R.M. Nazarian were also on the panel.
A spokesman for Comptroller Peter Franchot did not respond to a request for comment Wednesday.
The case is Michael J. Holzheid, et al. v. Comptroller of the Treasury of Maryland, et al., No. 2374, September Term, 2017.

After rocking Edmonton and the free agent market last summer with the blockbuster signing of Milan Lucic, Peter Chiarelli delivered a much quieter Canada Day this year.
The Oilers general manager distanced himself from the frenzy Saturday, keeping the chequebook in his holster and his sights set on a pair of more important targets much closer to home.
Chiarelli nibbled around the edges of the NHL’s free agent market, bolstering the AHL Bakersfield Condors with a handful of as he put it “not sexy” additions, but the primary focus remains getting new contracts signed by Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl.
Until those are done, everything else is kind of on hold.
“In the reality of today’s cap world you have to plan ahead,” said Chiarelli, who likes what he has in place right now, anyway.
“Frankly, we feel pretty good about our team. We were close to advancing to the third round with youth, so we’re going to stick with it.
“We weren’t really in the market for any of those larger free agents. Right now, my priority is to sign Connor and Leon so we’ll continue to work on that.”
And no, he’s not giving updates on either contract situation.
“I’m not going to comment on negotiations.”
Chairelli isn’t ruling out a mid-level addition later on this month, or before training camp, or in mid season, but throwing big money at the market right now just isn’t the right move.
“The temptation on a day like today is to think that these are players for free, you can get an asset for nothing (but money). But it doesn’t mean you have to add just for the sake of adding.
“What we did was communicate with a couple of free agents. Whether they’re going to be around when it’s time for us to make those moves I don’t know. We’ve also laid a little foundation for potential trades, too.
“I thought today was productive.”
After adding Cam Talbot two years ago and Milan Lucic last summer, shoring up the defence with Andrej Sekera and Adam Larsson, adding Patrick Maroon, Zack Kassian and Mark Letestu up front, watching McDavid, Draisaitl and Oscar Klefbom emerge into cornerstones and going two rounds deep in the spring, Chiarelli, says the need for major acquisitions is nowhere near as great as it was when he got here.
“I’m not saying this will be it, but if it’s it I’d be very happy with it.”
It is largely the same group that put up 103 points and went to Game 7 of the second round of the playoffs last year, only minus Sekera (for a few months with a knee injury), a downgrade on second line right wing from Jordan Eberle to Ryan Strome.
But Chiarelli is counting on a lot of young, up-and-coming players to be even better for having gone through last year’s playoff run.
“These guys have shown good growth and will continue to show growth,” he said. “It would have been counter-productive to drop (older free agents) in front of them. Those are young players that you want to leave room to grow.
“I saw really good growth in a guy like Slepyshev. In the playoffs he showed me a lot.”
While there is concern, if not fear, among Oilers fans that a rival club might make Leon Draisaitl an offer sheet, Chiarelli says he doesn’t think it will happen.
He was the one, though, who brought up the subject when he proclaimed at the draft in Chicago that Edmonton were positioned to match any offer sheet, and would.
“I don’t think it’s a concern,” he said Saturday. “Offer sheets are quite inflationary, which will impact everybody. (But) any time you enter July 1 with a player of Leon’s caliber unsigned, there’s always that speculation, there’s always that chatter. I just stated that to say we were in a comfortable position and we’re going to match any offer.”
One of the additions Saturday was RW Ty Rattie, a second round pick from 2011 who’s struggled to make it to the NHL. He has 10 points in 35 games over four seasons.
“He has really good hockey sense, a good release, a very smart player,” Chiarelli said of the six-foot, 195-pounder. “But he’s underachieved. I don’t know why, we have reasons why, just by observation, but we think he has a chance to play on our team and if not he’ll provide us (AHL) depth.”
The Oilers also signed forward Mitch Callahan and defenceman Ryan Stanton to two-year contracts as well as forwards Grayson Downing, Brian Ferlin, defenceman Keegan Lowe and goaltender Edward Pasquale to one-year contracts.

Study of Gas Mobility Control during CO2 Injection for Enhanced Oil Recovery
MetadataShow full item record
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) has been used as a commercial source for Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) for over 40 years. In recent years, the utilization of anthropogenic CO2 has become more attractive, because of its proven EOR and climate mitigating capability. Despite the EOR potential, it is widely known that many CO2 injection projects are associated with inefficient gas utilization, poor macroscopic sweep efficiencies and low recoveries caused by effects of gravity segregation and viscous instabilities. Effective and affordable optimization of CO2 mobility has the potential to prolong the lifetime of existing hydrocarbon reservoirs and recover additional oil with carbon-neutral EOR activity. This thesis is part of an international collaboration, including 10 oil and service companies and 13 universities and research institutions in both USA and Europe, initiated to gain experience and confidence in utilizing CO2 for EOR. The aim for the research program is to perform laboratory studies combined with up-scaling techniques, through numerical simulation, and ultimately conduct field pilots at four confirmed onshore locations in Texas and Mississippi, United States. The experimental work conducted in this thesis investigates the use of mobility control with foam during CO2-EOR in strongly water-wet Edwards Limestone core plug samples of heterogeneous porosity and permeability. Tertiary co-injection of supercritical state CO2 and a surfactant to generate foam was conducted after a waterflood to resemble EOR projects in mature hydrocarbon reservoirs. The tertiary displacements were conducted as either CO2-foam (three experiments) or as a baseline test (one experiment) without foaming agent present. The baseline test was performed to evaluate the importance of generating foam in terms of mobility control. All co-injections were conducted at fixed liquid and gas fractions, with a total injection rate of 10 ml/h. On four stacked core systems, total oil recoveries ranged from 69.3% to 87.0% of Original Oil in Place (OOIP), with the baseline test being the most effective. Results show that additional oil recovered during the co- injections were dependent on foam stability, liquid-gas fractions and overall connectivity in the heterogeneous medium. Using Eclipse reservoir simulator, a history matching of the experimental results was performed. The simulation base model was built by collecting observed experimental liquid production data and combined with the measured core properties of core system used in the baseline test. The aim was to obtain satisfactory history match between simulated and laboratory data by conducting sensitivity parameter studies. A validated numerical model, i.e. a model that reproduce the experimental results observed, may be used for up-scaling from the laboratory scale towards the field pilot scale. It was observed that the concurrence of simulated and laboratory waterflood data was dependent on crude oil and brine relative permeabilities.

The New England Patriots have a major void to fill in their coaching staff after the hiring of Josh McDaniels as head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders. Bill Belichick must find a new caller, and he may have a surprising choice for the job – himself.
There has been talk in recent weeks of Belichick taking on more offensive responsibility next season. The longtime coach has not announced an official replacement for McDaniels, and ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler and Dan Graziano announced on Sunday that it could stay that way.
“The intrigue deepens as the New England Patriots approach the offense without a true playmaker,” Graziano and Fowler wrote. “There’s kind of an open belief across the league that coach Bill Belichick could call plays or, at the very least, get more involved on offense. He’s involved in everything, of course, but he could really dig here.
The Patriots need to replace several offensive assistants. McDaniels took receivers coach Mick Lombardi, offensive assistant Bo Hardegree and offensive line coach Carmen Bricillo with him to Las Vegas.
Belichick is known as one of the greatest defensive minds of all time. We don’t doubt he could play a bigger role up front, but that doesn’t seem ideal for the Patriots. They’ll likely be at their best if Belichick can devote most of his time to defense.
