FoxDavies Daily Monitor - Global Energy Development, Aminex and Cadogan Petroleum

Friday, August 31, 2012

Global Energy Development (GED LN, 73.5p, ? 0.0%) - Cash IS King: The extension of maturity date of its $5mm Senior Secured Note Payable to April 2013 keeps liquidity position intact. In exchange, the company has agreed to an increase in interest rate by 2% to 12.5%. The focus is very much on retention of cash, principally to implement its "3-Year Plan" development strategy. The outlook continues to lift for the stock; we are placing GED on our watch list.

Aminex (AEX LN, 4.20p, ? 1.2%) - Interim Results - All eyes on Tanzanian assets: The major highlight of the first half was the significant gas discovery at Ntorya in the Ruvuma Basin. Ntorya-1 well flowed gas at 20.1mm cfpd and condensate at 139 barrels per day of 48 degrees API. Ntorya field potential is estimated at 1.17 tcf (195mm boe). Importantly, Tanzanian Government's decision to build the 36" diameter gas pipeline from Mtwara, which is just 25 km away from the Ntorya-1 discovery, to Dar es Salaam further enhances the commercial potential of the discovery. Upcoming seismic and drilling programmes for appraising the Ntorya discovery and Nyuni Area PSA would be the key catalysts. In this news:

• 16% increase in oil and gas production from continuing operations to 49,500 BOE (2011: 42,600 BOE)
• Loss before tax of $3.26 million (2011: $0.90 million)
• Advanced negotiations for $15 million loan to fund on-going exploration programme in Tanzania
• 11.4 TCF of discovered and undiscovered gas initially in place (GIIP) volumes for the Nyuni Area and Ruvuma PSAs as defined in an independent report (a 400% increase compared to previous study)
• An increase in our working interest in the Ruvuma PSA from 56.5% to 75%
• Completion of the sale of the Somerset Field in Texas signalling the beginning of the US asset divestiture

Cadogan Petroleum (CAD LN, 17.75p, ? 8.9%) - Time To Stop Talking and Start Delivering: Following transaction with Eni in June 2011, we can expect traction in the exploration programme at two west Ukraine licences, Debeslavetska and Cheremkhivska. Results of on-going workover programme on other Ukrainian asset, Zagoryanska, has not been per company's expectations. Operations at Pokrovskoe remain temporarily suspended. Production from the Zagoryanska, Debeslavetska and Cheremkivska licences continued at a combined rate of approximately 51 mcm/day of gas and 5.1 tons/day of condensate. The company needs to step up exploration and development activities to catch investor's eye. In this news:

• Continued production from the Zagoryanska, Debeslavetska and Cheremkivska licences at a combined rate of about 51 mcm/day of gas and 5.1 tons/day of condensate
• Joint venture established to develop unconventional shale gas in Lviv western Ukraine announced
• New well at Zagoryanska 11 drilled
• Total capital expenditure of $16.2 million during the first half of 2012 (30 June 2011: $3.0 million)
• Decreased operating costs to $4.9 million (H1 2011: $5.4 million) despite significant increase in activity
• Net cash and cash equivalents at 30 June 2012 of $51.3 million (31 December 2011: $65.0 million)

Exillon Energy (EXI LN, 132.5p, ? 0.76%) - Upbeat Interim update: Oil production during H1-2012 increased by 48% to 11.5mbpd and the company expects to achieve 17.0mbpd by year end. EBIDTA climbed 98% to $7.8mm on the back of positive operating leverage due to the commissioning of captive entry point into Transneft pipeline and captive power generation facilities. We expect operating margins to further improve in H2-2012 as it will reflect full period benefit of captive pipeline and power facilities. The balance sheet of the company is strong with $138.5 million of cash and cash equivalents as at 30 June 2012 and net cash position was US$38.3mm. In this news:

• Oil production increased 48% from 1.42 million to 2.1 million barrels. Production guidance of 17,000 bpd by end of 2012 reiterated.
• Drill time in Exillon WS reduced to around 20 days per well
• New strategy of drilling wells at 60 degree angle doubles exposed net pay
• Lack of oil water contact in wells drilled to North East of the EWS I field suggests substantial reserves increase likely in this area of the field
• Improved completion and cementing procedures across portfolio
• Completion of oil treatment and power generation facilities in both Exillon TP and Exillon WS

First, Steven Tyler. Then, Jennifer Lopez. Now, American Idol has officially cleaned its judging house.

Sources confirm to TMZ that Randy Jackson will not return in 2013 as a panelist on the Fox competition. Instead, as rumored for weeks now, he will move in to a mentoring capacity.

With Mariah Carey on board, this means at least two - possibly three if the show expands to four judges - openings are available.

Insiders continue to say that Nicki Minaj is incredibly close to closing her deal, with Keith Urban a favorite for the third spot. Other names bantered about include Diddy, Lenny Kravitz, Nick Jonas and even Kanye West.

But let's take a moment to look back before we look forward. Will you miss Randy Jackson as a judge?

Outsourcing With no Upsetting Lou Dobbs | Contacts Manufacturer ...

I don?t understand how several occasions I?ve flipped through the channels and heard Lou Dobbs speaking about Exporting America. Now, I know Lou is discussing the political and economic context of American businesses outsourcing their jobs overseas. Nonetheless, this new one-dimensional definition of outsourcing has other implications to some of us within the States.

I am no professional on politics, economics or Lou Dobbs, so I?ll hold my opinions on these subjects to myself. Nonetheless, what I would prefer to go over is the unfavorable connotation that the word outsourcing has taken on in this country.

There are thousands upon thousands of little companies within this country whose sole survival depends on other businesses outsourcing their wants. Just consider it for any moment. How numerous organizations in the service industries only exist to assistance the requirements of other businesses?

Picture if every single firm had to act as a completely self-sufficient corporation. They ought to manage all of their very own HR issuesno a lot more employment agencies, payroll businesses, and so on. They should employ a full-fledged IT division to manage all of their very own net design, networking, software program and database designs. Each enterprise has to possess adequate administrative assistants, data entry specialists, desktop publishing professionals, advertising and marketing gurus. The list is endless.

If American companies were to entirely eradicate all types of outsourcing, life as we know it would end!

Now, all of us understand that this really is not what Lou or anybody else who has defined outsourcing as among the list of most well-known buzz words with the final handful of years is talking about. I realize that most of the people realize that the business to business outsourcing inside America is just not a poor factor. Nonetheless, it seems strange to me that 1 word can take on such a life of its personal. It?s really not a new phenomenon, yet it?s the initial time that I?ve encountered among these controversial terms in my own ventures.

Let me say that as a company particular person inside a field that?s solely according to other companies looking to my company to meet their needs, I find myself fairly usually looking for synonyms to outsourcing. Not that there?s something incorrect with it, but when I?m marketing, I?m forever brainstorming for words to replace that one particular that starts with o and ends with source! After all the speak that?s been spinning about Washington as well as the rest from the country, it seems that it?s turned into a dirty word.

Clearly, most people understand that you will find all kinds of outsourcing. On the other hand, when you?ve got limited time and space are you currently going to decide on a hot button word to describe what you?re selling?

Religion, 9/11 grab spotlight as Venice film fest opens

VENICE (Reuters) - Politics, religion and personal crisis combine in "The Reluctant Fundamentalist," the opening movie at this year's Venice film festival, which examines what the 9/11 attacks mean for a young Asian man destined for a bright future on Wall Street.

Based on the novel by Pakistan-born writer Mohsin Hamid, it is directed by Indian Mira Nair, one of a large number of female filmmakers in Venice this year and a winner of the festival's coveted Golden Lion for best film with 2001's "Monsoon Wedding."

"The Reluctant Fundamentalist," which has its red carpet world premiere on Wednesday to launch the 2012 festival, is not eligible for awards because it screens outside the competition.

But organizers are hoping its themes of faith, alienation and radicalism will provide a provocative start to 11 days of films, interviews, press conferences, photo shoots and late-night parties on the Lido island, which is part of Venice.

"'The Reluctant Fundamentalist' gave me the platform to create a dialogue between the subcontinent and the West, over a schism that becomes more and more pronounced each day," Nair said of her new film.

She called it "a story about conflicting ideologies, instead of competing fists, where perception and suspicion have the power to determine life or death."

Venice, the world's oldest film festival, celebrates its 80th anniversary this year and welcomes back artistic director Alberto Barbera for another stint at the helm.

He takes over from the respected outgoing director Marco Mueller, and will have his work cut out to ensure that Venice remains one of the top three film festivals in the world amid growing competition from Toronto and beyond.

His competition lineup of 18 movies has won early praise from critics, and Venice has launched a small market to make the notoriously expensive trip to Venice more commercially attractive to movie studio bosses.

"I think all of us at the Biennale (festival) were aware of the fact that you change or die because the competition with other festivals is too strong," Barbera told Reuters. "They invested a lot in the last decade to renovate the structure of the festival, the scope of the festival and make sure Venice remained the same as it was 20 years ago."

LACK OF STARS?

The lack of A-list stars this year is a concern among some festivalgoers, although Barbera will hope that a new generation of up-and-coming acting talent, including Zac Efron, Shia LaBeouf and Selena Gomez, provides the kind of buzz on which festivals thrive.

The older generation will be represented by Robert Redford and Julie Christie, while Rachel McAdams, Philip Seymour Hoffman and the unpredictable Joaquin Phoenix also are expected.

One of the most talked-about movies this year is likely to be "The Master," Paul Thomas Anderson's story about a religious cult bearing similarities to Scientology.

The "There Will Be Blood" director has said the role of Lancaster Dodd, played by Hoffman, was partly inspired by L. Ron Hubbard, founder of the Church of Scientology.

The movie's distributor, The Weinstein Company, features a news report on its website calling "The Master" a "Scientology-tinged religious drama".

Yet both Anderson and company chief Harvey Weinstein have played down parallels with the self-described religion that counts Tom Cruise and John Travolta among its followers but has been cast by opponents as a cult that harasses people who seek to quit and coerces followers to think like they do.

Elsewhere, there will be plenty of on-screen sex with Brian De Palma's revenge thriller "Passion" working up an early head of steam through a racy trailer featuring McAdams and Noomi Rapace.

Terrence Malick, back on the European festival circuit a year after "The Tree of Life" won the Palme d'Or in Cannes, presents "To the Wonder," which has been given a film rating restricting it to adults due to scenes of nudity and sex.

Also in a slimmed-down main competition of 18 films is Marco Bellocchio's "Bella Addormentata" about Eluana Englaro, a woman left in a vegetative state by a car crash, who was at the center of a lengthy right-to-die case that divided opinion in Italy.

"Collateral" director Michael Mann leads the jury that decides who wins the Golden Lion. Last year the prize went to "Faust" by Russia's Alexander Sokurov.

Out of competition, Redford arrives with political action thriller "The Company You Keep," while Saudi Arabia's Haifaa al-Mansour says her movie "Wadjda," in the "Orizzonti" section, is the first feature to be shot entirely in the Kingdom.

Health costs?more worrisome than reform

By Allison Linn, NBC News

Republicans and Democrats have made their political and ideological?stance on President Obama's health care law a key part of their respective campaigns. But recent data suggests that Americans are preoccupied with the more practical matter of how much it will cost them to get the care they need.

Experts say?the focus on pocketbook issues reflects both the nation?s preoccupation with household finances amid the difficult economy, and the fact that the Affordable Care Act is poorly understood.

?People don?t think about the nation?s health care costs,? said Mollyann Brodie, senior vice president for public opinion and survey research for the Kaiser Family Foundation. ?They?re not thinking about the total amount the nation is spending on health care. What they think about is the price they pay, the price coming out of their paycheck.?

Brodie noted that it?s been hard for either opponents or proponents of the Affordable Care Act to explain how the big health care reform program will affect people?s individual health care costs.

That's partly because the effect will be very different depending on what kind of health insurance, and health care needs, you have. And it's made more complicated because many provisions of the law aren?t set to take effect until 2014 or later.

Also, although people may have deep partisan feelings about whether such a plan is necessary, in their everyday lives they?re more concerned with how they can afford the health care they need.

?When you ask them what bothers me, what bothers me is I can?t afford the premium,? she said.

A Kaiser Family Foundation survey conducted this month finds that even among Republicans, health care costs are a bigger health-related concern than any issues they might have with "Obamacare."

The Kaiser survey of about 1,200 Americans found that 67 percent of Republicans said the cost of health care and health insurance was either extremely or very important when choosing a president, while 61 percent said Medicare was the top health care issue in choosing a president.

A smaller number of Republicans, 54 percent, said the 2010 health care law that has been such a hot topic of political debate was extremely or very important to their decision. Romney, the Republican presidential candidate, has vowed to undo many aspects of the law if elected.

Among Americans of all political affiliations, health care cost also ranked as the most second worrisome economic issue, right after jobs, in the Kaiser survey.

A separate Gallup survey also showed that health care costs remain a top worry among American workers as well. It found that American workers are more worried about getting their benefits cut than about having their job eliminated, despite an unemployment rate that is above 8 percent.

The Gallup poll of about 500 working adult Americans, which also was conducted in early August, found that 40 percent?were worried that their benefits will be cut, while 28 percent were worried about losing their job.

Paul Fronstin, director of the Employment Benefit Research Institute?s health research and education program, said it?s no surprise that Americans are so concerned about the cost and availability of benefits. Fronstin noted that health care costs have been rising for years. That?s left many?employees either being asked to contribute more toward the cost of their care, or finding that their employer simply doesn?t offer a plan they can afford.

?Benefits have been eroding. We have seen deductibles going up, and we have seen copayments going up,? he said.

The Gallup survey has for years shown that Americans are most worried about benefit cuts. But the concern spiked when the economy began to falter. Perhaps surprisingly, it has continued to outpace fears of a job loss even as millions of Americans have lost their jobs.

These days, Fronstin said many people may feel like they made it through the recession and therefore don?t have to be as worried that they will lose their job. Yet they still may worry that their employer will continue to ask them to pay more for health care, and they may wonder how they will swing that added cost.

?People are starting to get over that (fear that) they?re going to lose their job because the unemployment rate has been coming down, even slightly,? he said. ?But it doesn?t make them feel better about their benefits.?

Prehistoric tiny bugs found trapped in amber

WASHINGTON (AP) ? Scientists have found three well preserved ancient insects frozen in amber ? and time ? in what is Earth's oldest bug trap.

The discoveries of amber-encased insects in Italy may sound like something out of "Jurassic Park" but these bugs are even older than that. They are about 230 million years old, which puts them in the Triassic time period, and about 100 million years older than what had been the previously known oldest critters trapped in fossilized tree resin, or amber.

Gooey tree resin is like sap but without water and can't be diluted.

Researchers painstakingly examined 70,000 droplets of amber found in northeastern Italy. Stuck in them were two microscopic mites and much of one fly. The mites are too small to be seen with the naked eye and the fly is a tad tinier than a fruit fly, researchers say.

The discovery was reported Monday in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

While older insects have been found in rock fossils, these are different because they are not compressed and better preserved, said study lead author David Grimaldi, curator of the American Museum of Natural History in New York. And you can see more detail, he said.

"''That's the great thing about amber. You can make this incredible detailed comparison with living species." Grimaldi said.

And when Grimaldi compared the ancient mites to their modern day descendants, he was surprised about how similar they are. Except for difference in the mouth and fewer legs, "they're dead ringers for (modern) gall mites," he said. The modern ones can be found in bubbles or galls on plant leaves.

And that's surprising because the world itself has changed a lot from when these bugs were alive. Back then, there was only one giant continent, some early primitive dinosaurs and no flower plants. Mites now live on flowering plants, but their ancient relatives must have stayed on trees, Grimaldi said.

Derek Briggs, director of the Yale Peabody Museum of Natural History and who wasn't part of the research, called the bugs' discovery tantalizing, adding that it could help researchers further understand how life evolved on land.

Healthy physical activity aids burn off any surplus calories you consume, as well as keeps muscles and joints flexible and strong.

Zija

Your efforts of continued education (reading through, attending seminars, and also attending formal education and learning classes), and faith based activities (social pursuits, attending devotional services, yoga, etc) provides you with a feeling of accomplishment and wellbeing.

An important part of good health is being physically fit and looking after proper body weight. Maintaining a healthy body requires following a health diet, and training to build and maintain muscle groups, and to burn of the excess calories.

Nutrition

The nutritional health a part of health, nutrition and health and fitness deals with the food we consume to maintain our health and wellness and provide energy to keep our daily lives. Nutrition is the process of nurturing or just being nourished; the total of all processes that a seed or animal uses to take in and method food substances to take care of a healthy life.

A wholesome nutrition life style requires a well balanced diet of foodstuff selected from the 5 basic food groups, fresh fruits, vegetables, naturally calcium supplements rich dairy products or even calcium enriched merchandise, whole grains, and necessary protein (lean meat bass, peas and beans). Other nutritional factors should also be regarded. Most fruits and vegetables are greater if they are consumed natural because heating destroys some of the healthy nutrients. Steaming and broiling meals are better than boiling as well as frying foods. Preparing fruits and vegetables is better than processed or prepared foods. The prepared meals generally contain a lot more salt (sodium) when compared with necessary and other taste enhancing substances. Some of these additives do not include any nutritional value on the food and may even become harmful to your health.

More nutritional factors to consider would be the variety of the vegatables and fruits in our diet. Nutritional information shows that dark green veggies (romaine lettuce, kale, broccoli, and so forth.), and orange veggies (carrots, sweet potatoes, pumpkin along with summer squash) provides more nutritional value than some of the less colorful vegetables.

Here are even more nutrition facts. Some foods give rise to burning fat. Green tea leads to fat burning by improving the body?s metabolism and growing energy level. Foods high in necessary protein are more difficult to break down so they require more calories in the digestive process.

Good nutrition practices may not be sufficient for a few people they may require distinctive supplements such as CoEnzimeQ10 kinds.

Flake wins Arizona GOP nomination for US Senate

PHOENIX (AP) ? With the easy defeat of an unexpectedly aggressive primary challenger, Arizona Rep. and GOP Senate nominee Jeff Flake brushed off speculation of a bruised candidacy with a vow to repeal President Barack Obama's economic and health care policies.

"This will be a great race because there are big differences between our philosophies," Flake said of Democratic opponent Richard Carmona, a moderate who served as surgeon general under Republican President George W. Bush. "... Richard Carmona is President Obama's hand-picked candidate for Arizona, and he shares the president's agenda. And I don't think it is the agenda Arizonans want."

Flake took 70 percent of the Republican vote Tuesday, defeating wealthy businessman Wil Cardon and two lesser-known candidates for the nomination to succeed retiring Republican Sen. Jon Kyl.

Democrats are hoping the accusations of hypocrisy, broken promises and flip-flopping that marked the GOP primary weakened Flake and his bank account enough to give Carmona the best shot in years at taking one of the state's two Senate seats. Arizona hasn't elected a Democrat to the Senate since Dennis DeConcini won his third term in 1988.

The push by Carmona comes as the GOP is fighting to pick up four more seats to wrest control of the chamber in advance of votes on key policy issues such as the possible repeal of President Barack Obama's health care law and changes to the tax code.

Flake said he planned to focus on the economy and the repeal of Obama's health care plan.

One or both major parties also had primary races in all nine of Arizona's U.S. House districts, including a two-incumbent rivalry between freshmen Republicans pitted against each other by redistricting. Rep. David Schweikert defeated former Vice President Dan Quayle's son, Rep. Ben Quayle.

And Rep. Ron Barber, a former aide who was hand-picked to succeed Gabrielle Giffords after she was shot in the head in a January 2011 mass shooting in Tucson, fended off a challenge by former state Rep. Matt Heinz in the Democratic primary.

Primary voters in Alaska, Oklahoma and Vermont also decided House races.

In Arizona's Senate primary, Cardon tried to paint Flake as a Washington insider who reneged on past promises to limit his terms in office. Opponents pointed to Flake's little-known past as a Washington lobbyist for a uranium mine that was minority-owned by Iran. He also criticized Flake, saying he made a dramatic change on immigration, going from a supporter of comprehensive reform to backing policies that would first secure the border.

For his part, Cardon was accused of painting himself as tough on immigration, while a company he partly owned was fined for faulty paperwork in hiring workers with questionable legal status.

Cardon, who spent $6 million of his own money, said he believed Flake was "a better candidate because of the fights he had to go through."

"We had a good campaign," Cardon said. "Unfortunately we didn't get through to all the voters."

In Oklahoma, Westville plumbing company owner Markwayne Mullin defeated three-term state Rep. George Faught in a runoff for the Republican nomination for the seat being vacated by Democratic Rep. Dan Boren. And longtime state and federal prosecutor Rob Wallace, of Fort Gibson, beat Muskogee seed company owner Wayne Herriman in the Democratic runoff.

Windsor businessman John MacGovern handily defeated a Republican primary opponent in the Vermont race to challenge independent U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders in November.

In Alaska, state Rep. Sharon Cissna of Anchorage was leading a five candidate field of Democrats vying for the chance to challenge Republican U.S. Rep. Don Young, who has held his seat for 40 years.

Beckett's Dodgers debut not so hot

Josh Beckett was rudely welcomed back to the National League on Monday, getting lit up by very first batter he faced, Tyler Colvin, on his way to taking a loss to the Rockies.

Colvin launched an 0-1 fastball off the facing of the upper deck (here?s the video)?to get the Rockies off on the right foot tonight. They went on to win 10-0, knocking the Dodgers 2 1/2 games behind the idle Giants in the NL West.

Making his first start for the Dodgers after Saturday?s big trade with the Red Sox, Beckett ended up allowing three runs in 5 2/3 innings. He retired six in a row after the homer, notching three of his six strikeouts in the sequence. The Rockies didn?t get to him again until the fourth, when Chris Nelson tripled and was singled in by D.J. LeMahieu.

The third run came in the sixth, courtesy of singles from Nelson, Jonathan Herrera and pinch-hitter Johnny Rutledge. Rutledge?s hit scored Nelson and resulted in Beckett?s removal.

Jeff Francis got the win for Colorado after throwing five scoreless innings. The Beckett-Francis duel was actually a rematch of Game 1 of the 2007 World Series between Boston and Colorado, which the Red Sox won 13-1.

Beckett has now allowed eight homers in four starts this month after going 12 straight starts from May 15-July 31 without giving up any. He?s 0-5 in his last seven starts and 5-12 with a 5.21 ERA in 133 innings for the season.

Fortunately, the Dodgers weren?t counting on Beckett to be a savior. With his velocity down, it?s doubtful that he?ll return to 2011 form at any point during the season. Still, he should be an upgrade over Joe Blanton at the back of the rotation, and he?ll be a reasonable option as a third or fourth starter come playoff time, should the Dodgers advance.

Beckett is slated to make his home debut for the Dodgers against the Diamondbacks on Saturday. After that, he?ll get a road test against the Giants.

Deadly outbreak of E. coli in Germany should be a warning ...

More than 3,300 people have been sickened since the beginning of the epidemic, of which almost 800 with a serious complication that can lead to kidney failure and death. The German health officials were finally able to trace the disease back to soybeans grown on a farm in northern Germany, but not for at least 39 people died.Storing large companies simply did not want to deal with multi-million dollar lawsuits against them with contaminated food, are requiring suppliers to develop processes, requirements and tests -. As such certified products are BPA ? - as protection against pathogens are present in their products.

Private companies are ahead of the government, and many are now requiring a third inspection of products, he said. There is no policy for the private food industry ? is the bottom line that drives things.

Not all strains of E. coli are harmful. However, the strain that caused the outbreak in Germany is highly pathogenic.

But the regulation is moot on the market, supported Laborde, because food security has been pushed to buyers. Any buyer ? a massive supermarket chain ? has its own standards which require manufacturers and are becoming increasingly difficult. Small farmers and operations of large companies must comply.

Laborde noted that the testing and regulation of the government is increasingly controversial in some circles because it adds cost and makes the food more expensive, but the policy and food safety are inconsistent when people start getting sick because of food-borne illness.

In the United States, the seeds are usually pre-treated with concentrated bleach and wash water flows through the shoots are collected and tested for bacteria such as E. coli, Laborde said.

In retrospect, it is not surprising that the shoots were determined to be the cause of the outbreak of E. We have long known that the sprouts may be a problem, he said. Seeds can be contaminated by bacteria in the manure of animals in the field or during storage after harvest.

Maybe that was not done in Germany, he said. Increasingly in this country, we test the water for irrigation and washing water contamination. And ?monitoring generally much here.

Laborde said that the new Law on Food Safety recently approved in this country, contains provisions that allow scientists and government agencies on food safety to trace their origins to the fast food company.

The process used to germinate seeds is ideal for growing pathogens, said Laborde. The nutrients are abundant, with high humidity levels ? and warm temperatures necessary for the germination process to help ensure the survival and growth of bacteria, he said.

The seeds that farmers buy cabbage growth may be contaminated with no indication they are dangerous to use, he said. This will just continue to use this seed until someone said, ?Hey, that make people sick.

The misuse of germs during production, packaging and distribution has rarely been implicated as the source of contamination germinate. However, the bacteria already present in the germination of seeds can continue to prosper, if management does not have good food techniques practiced during the harvesting, processing and preparation.

You can not reverse the contamination, and as cabbages are grown, if there is even the smallest amount of contamination may increase significantly and make people sick.

Now, every product or container must include information on where a food was grown or created. And because contamination can occur in the transport and storage processing, the information on those, too, are recorded and stored, Laborde said.

Physicians should regularly provide to all patients over 13 years of a blood test for HIV, the American College of Physicians calls for new guidelines.

Solve Problems For The Do It Yourselfer With These Quick Tips ...

If the outside of your home is looking a bit drab and old, why not put new outside light fixtures up. There are a lot of outside light fixtures available on the market and they all have something special. Putting a new light on your home adds a touch of class, elegance and style.

If your kitchen is in need of a renovation that you can?t afford, consider simply repainting your cabinets and replacing their hinges. You won?t have made any major functional changes, but your kitchen will appear much nicer and newer. Replacing hinges ensures that cabinet doors fit snugly instead of hanging open, and the new paint will brighten up the whole room.

If you plan to renovate your whole house, start small by transforming one room or area of your home and see how it turns out. If it isn?t what you were hoping for, you still have time to hire help or learn how to better plan your entire renovation.

If you have repairs that need to be done on your apartment, and your landlord is not doing them, you can withhold your rent. While you do not have to pay rent for those months, you do have to place the money in an escrow account and write a certified letter to your landlord explaining why.

When moving towards improving your home remember the small things like doors. A cheap improvement that can increase your home value a great deal is six panel doors. They create an executive look and make your living space look larger than it really is. It is hard to believe such a small change can make such a big difference, but it really can.

At the beginning of the year, assess your home and see what things you?d like to improve or work on. Make a list of these things and prioritize them. Then, systematically work your way through the list until you?ve accomplished everything on it. Then, start the process over again the following year until you have your dream home.

Before starting any home improvement job you should make sure you have all of the necessary tools available. A missing tool can hold up a project. The effect of such delays can range from minor annoyance all the way up to serious expenses. Many home improvement projects (pouring concrete, for example) can be ruined if you lack the right tools at a critical point.

When painting your walls, always make sure to properly spread tarps or newspaper over your flooring. You can even go as far as cutting open trash bags and laying them on the floor. Painting is messy and hard/impossible to remove from carpeting and wooden flooring. Take safety measures before you start painting so you don?t have to worry about the after effects.

Small changes in the bathroom can make a major impact in selling your home. This home improvement can be done very inexpensively. Just replacing old wallpaper or updating the lighting fixtures, can add significant value to that dated bathroom. Even just a fresh coat of paint can increase the value and make old bathrooms look good.

When you are replacing your siding with veneer some positive things to keep in mind about that material are the functional advantages to other sidings. The veneers can protect your home quite well from damages, they are very easy to install, and require little to almost no maintenance which is very important.

Organize your home by bottling up your yarn and other delicate craft materials. Two liter bottles like those soda come in are great for storing practically everything. Remove the label, cut a slit down the side and insert your skeins or balls of yarn! Pull the loose end through the top and replace the cap to secure it.

If you have decided to work on a new medium to large size project, first ensure that you have all of the steps written down. After this, you will want to examine exactly what kinds of materials and tools you will need. If you are missing anything, be sure to purchase it before starting.

Before you begin your next home improvement project, take the time to look for inspiration in magazines, color swatches and anything else that you can find. It is important to plan ahead so that you don?t get stuck trying to do too much when it is time for you to begin your project. This will make the entire process much more relaxing for you.

There are different kinds of activities for different kinds of people. As you have read, they don?t all involve the outdoors, animals or being incredibly muscular. There are activities that nearly everyone can enjoy, like home improvement. With the above tips in mind, you can reap the benefits for your home too.

The 3 R's To Improving Your Marriage Relationship by Roger D. King

Living in a society that stresses "Look out for number one", there appears to be an over abundance of "Number One's". Who is "Number One" to you? Do you consider yourself "Number One", or is there a "Number One" in your life? Married couples should have a "Number One". Physically speaking, a married couple has a "Number One" - their spouse! Spiritually speaking the married couples' "Number One" should be Jesus Christ! Often times couple who may be struggling with different marital "stresses" look at one another to find fault and somewhere to place blame. Is it your spouse's fault? More times than none, it's probably your own fault. Why? Where is your focus? What are you focusing on in your marriage covenant? Is it the "Holy Contract" that you made with your spouse and God? It's important to keep in mind the seriousness of that agreement! All too often we hear about separations and divorces. These can be avoided if we would refocus and remember our responsibility and remain where we are!

1 - Remember

Remember your focus point. Look to Christ, then spouse, children. Remember all of the sweet, polite, caring, and kind things you did and said when you first met and started dating. The way you acted when you went out for dinner or to a movie. You treated one another as if he/she was a king or a queen. You went out of your way to make sure things were as near perfect as possible. There were sweet notes, flirting and you constantly held hands.

Now that you've been married for some time, some of those things have changed or simple not done at all. You've gotten used to one another, maybe you haven't gotten used to one another and you are just existing. There is always something to distract your attention. Pressures at work, the children needing attention, financial problems, problems at church and so on. It appears that no matter where you turn, there is some sort of distraction. Where is your attention focused? Is it focused on yourself? Others? Most importantly - is your attention focused on your spouse? More important than that, is your attention focused on Jesus Christ? Remember who brought the two of you together. Your meeting one another was no accident or something that happened by chance.

God the Father saw that it was "Not good for man to be alone. I will make a helper who is right for Him" (Genesis 2:18). So we see that our marriages are in fact - Made in Heaven. We need to remember that God wants us to treat one another with the love and mercy that He has shown us personally! When the children of Israel were "slaves" to Pharaoh, they begged and pleaded for their release. Some of the pleadings that may have gone up re "Send us someone to help us. Something needs to be done." God answered their prayers by sending Moses to lead them out of captivity. God hears our prayers when we plead with him - remember those "pleadings" for a mate? God answers our prayers even when we don't take into consideration the responsibility that may come with those answered prayers!

2 - Responsibility

We have a responsibility to our mates. We're responsible or our mates' well-being, in the physical sense, emotionally. On the day you exchanged vows, whether before a magistrate or a minister, you made a promise, a vow before God to love, cherish, honor, and obey your spouse. You vowed to - Forsake All Others. This vow or covenant, next to baptism is the most important vow or covenant we can make with someone. We have a responsibility to do everything in our "physical" power to uphold this covenant. We are responsible for respecting one another by obeying the will of Christ which is to obey each other, to love each other and to help each other!

Ephesians 5:22 says, "Wives, yield to your husbands as you do to the Lord, because the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ is the head of the church. In other words, wives, respect your husbands as you respect Christ, however, do not put your husband above Christ. In some cases the wife is the only one saved in a marriage. This is not a just cause for the wife not to fulfill her duties as a wife to her husband. And vice versa - a saved husband should not put demands on his unsaved wife. No demands should be made by either spouse! In verse 25, Christ instructs husbands to love their wives as He loved the church and gave himself for it. Christ made the ultimate sacrifice by giving his fife in order to "take are" of the church! Husbands, are you willing to give up what you have for your wife? Christ did so that the church could be pure and without fault.

We should live our lives not to cause sin in someone else or to bring sin on them! Strive for righteousness in your life, in your marriage and in your families. It is so easy to get caught up in the "things of this world". The saying "Everything that glitters is not gold" is indeed true! Satan will stop at nothing to taint the purity of a marriage covenant. Satan thrives on destruction of relationships between husbands and wives, parents and children. The list goes on and on. Regardless of what Satan throws at us, we're better off in the long run if we cling to Christ and remain in our covenant with our mates. We should look to Christ as our ultimate example. Are you living up to your spouses' expectations? That doesn't matter as much as living up to the expectations of Jesus Christ. Christ instructs us to love one another. The Greek word is AGAPE which means an unconditional love. A love that is always an "outgoing concern" for another person's well-being. Not a love that has conditions or requirements! In other words, regardless of how someone treats you, show love in return. Don't have requirements or rules that say - "As long as you do ... or as long as you do not do ..., I'll love you." Love does not and should not work that way.

Live is "dealing with any and all aspects of our relationships with a caring attitude, without placing blame or fault". These last two should be addressed with one another in such a way that the issue-at-hand is resolved for the benefit of both spouses and not be a heavy burden. Remember God put you together and He does not want to see any separation! Remain as one!

3 - Remain

Remaining as a family structure is not an easy task in this present society that we live in. No matter where you go there are indications that there is a lack of a family structure. Marital strife is the number one problem in the church today as we know it. This shouldn't be! Again, where is our focus? Divorce is becoming the norm in our society and tight-knit families an oddity. With single parenthood (much of which was not the fault of the spouse with the child) constantly rising, there is only so much the mother or father is some cases, can do. Worse yet, teen pregnancy rising on a daily basis. Our children are not being taught true "family values". Values to live by on a "day in - day out" basis. With an "I got mine, you get your own" kind of attitude, things only get worse. Married couples need to develop a closer relationship with Christ! Again, where is our focus? God ordained marriage to be a blessed and holy union! Not to be gotten out of, except through death!

Present day marriage vows have the statement, "Till Death Do Us Part". We're not taking this part of our marriage covenant seriously! We need to reevaluate our commitments that we have made to our spouse. More importantly, we need to reevaluate our commitment and our focus to Christ! Rededicate yourself to your spouse. No matter what you think your "problem or situation" is. Stop trying to change things. You can't. I can't. Only God can. Re-focus your attention on Jesus Christ and He will in return make the necessary changes in your marriage and family life. Christ will then allow you to be examples of "Light" in this world of darkness. Divorce should not be an option to consider, unless there are scriptural reasons. Matthew 5:32 says, "Only for marital unfaithfulness". Marital unfaithfulness does not limit itself to adultery only!

Marital unfaithfulness can also include improper thoughts or lusts, physically and spiritually speaking. There are forms of misconduct in a marriage that could also be included such as alcoholism, physical abuse, emotional abuse or just plain neglect. If Christ is in us, there should be no reason for neglecting our spouse or our family. Sometimes we feel like we need to "get away". Well, that may be, but plan a family "get away", or a special trip for just you and your spouse. Another thing to remember, if you feel you need a "break", your spouse could very well need a break as well. Work on your own faults! Work them out with Jesus Christ! And Christ will help you to refocus your attention so that your priorities will be in the right place! Remain where you are - in love! Remember your Responsibility, and Remain where you are!

Introduction
Have you ever tried to build your own kite? Kites have been a source of entertainment through the centuries for kids worldwide. And they've been used for scientific experiments, too?Benjamin Franklin flew one to investigate lightning. (Something you shouldn't do!) In this activity you will have a chance to build your very own kite?a simple sled kite?and use it to investigate how tails help kites fly. After trying out this activity you may add tails to other kites to help them soar to greater heights!

Background
Did you know that, besides Ben Franklin, one of the most famous kite flyers of all time was a 10-year-old boy? His name was Homan Walsh, and without him the Niagara Falls Suspension Bridge may not have been built in 1847. Before construction could begin, someone needed to get a line across the Niagara River Gorge. Homan successfully flew a kite from one side of the gorge to the other over the treacherous rapids below and, after securing his kite string, heavier line was fed across until a steel cable could connect both shores and bridge construction could begin. Homan was rewarded with a $10 cash prize, which was a lot of money in 1847!

How does a kite fly? As someone runs with a kite, the wind going head-on into the kite causes a lift force on it. This force is perpendicular to the wind, pushing the kite up. At the same time, the force of drag pulls the kite back, in the direction that the wind is going.

There are many different kite designs. Some are very old, like traditional Chinese and Japanese kites. Some designs are very new, like the dynamic stunt kites used in sport-kite flying competitions. Their modern materials and designs make them ultra-maneuverable.

Materials
??? ? Printer
??? ? Paper
??? ? Scissors
??? ? Crayons and markers (optional)
???? Tape
??? ? Two drinking straws
??? ? Hole punch
??? ? Kite string
??? ? Measuring tape or ruler
??? ? Paper clip
??? ? Plastic grocery bag or other thin plastic bag
??? ? An open, clear area outside

Preparation
??? ? Download the Sled Kite Template (pdf) and print it out on a sheet of eight-and-a-half-inch by 11-inch paper.
??? ? Carefully cut out the sled kite. You can decorate it using crayons, markers or other media.
??? ? Trim the length of the two drinking straws so they will fit in the area marked for the straws. Tape the straws in place.
??? ? Place three pieces of tape in the marked areas covering the black circles to reinforce the holes for the kite string. Using a hole punch, carefully punch the two holes marked by the black circles.
??? ? Cut two pieces of kite string to make each 45 centimeters (cm) long. Tie a string through each hole. Tie them tight, but not so much that you tear the paper. Tie the opposite end of both strings together to one end of a paper clip.
??? ? Cut a one-meter-long piece of kite string. Tie one end of this string to the other end of the paper clip. Your sled kite is ready to fly!
??? ? To make some tails to test on your kite, take a plastic grocery bag or other thin plastic bag and lay it completely flat. If the bag has handles, cut with scissors straight across to remove the handles. Then keep cutting the bag in this way to create thin rings (which will look like strips when flat)?each should be about three-cm wide. Cut up the whole bag into these rings. Discard the handles. You can see this in an online visual guide for this step.)

Procedure
??? ? Try to fly your kite without a tail in an open, clear area outside. First walk with it, then try running with it. What does the kite do when you walk and then when you run? How well does it fly?
??? ? Using the plastic grocery bag rings you made, tape a tail to the bottom of your kite that is 10 cm long. (This will probably be less than one grocery bag ring.) The tail should be centered. Try to fly your kite outside again, first walking and then running with it. How does the kite fly compared with when it had no tail? Why do you think this is?
??? ? You'll now test a tail that is 100 cm long. To make this tail, loop two rings together and gently pull them tight (you can see this step?which involves overlapping and twisting the loops once?in the visual guide). Attach more rings to the tail this way to make it longer. Attach the longer tail to the 10-cm tail on the kite to give the kite that is 100 cm long. Try to fly your kite outside again, first walking and then running with it. How well does the kite fly with the 100-cm tail compared with the 10-cm one? How does it compare with flying a kite without a tail? Why do you think this is?
??? ? You'll now test a tail that is 500 cm long. Use the same looping process to expand your 100-cm tail another 400 cm in length. Try to fly your kite outside again, first walking and then running with it. How well does the kite fly with the 500-cm tail compared with the other tails or no tail? What differences do you notice? Why do you think this is?
??? ? Out of the tails you tested, which tail do you think helped the kite fly the best?? Why do you think this is?
??? ? Extra: Do this activity again, but instead of comparing different tail lengths, try adding additional tails and comparing the results. Add them symmetrically to the back end of the kite. How well does the kite fly with no tail, one tail, two tails?
??? ? Extra: In this activity you flew a kite using kite string one meter long. What happens when you fly the kite using different lengths of kite string, such as one meter, three meters or five meters?
??? ? Extra: There are a lot of other kite designs. Use the Internet, books or magazines at a library to find plans for different kinds of kites. Then test your new kite designs as you did in this activity. How does the tail length affect how well other kite designs work? What other variables affect how well kite designs work?
