Read any leadership book today and within the first few pages you'll hear about the critical function of vision in your organization. To lead effectively without a shared vision is simply not possible.
But sharing the vision takes skill. And sewing vision into the hearts of those I lead is a skill I continue to refine.
Recently, our fpKIDS team worked together to craft 5-to-6 simple, vision-driven phrases. Why? It's because our greatest opportunity to connect with volunteers and parents is on the weekend … amidst the hustle and bustle of church services.
One of your most important roles as a pastor is as vision-caster. Sharing the vision of your church can't be a one-time event.
The Bible says, "If people can't see what God is doing, they stumble all over themselves" (Prov. 29:18, MSG).
As the leader, God has called you to help your congregation see what God is doing in your midst. That's why you must continually put the vision of your church before your congregation—at least every 26 days. That's the Nehemiah Principle.
Last year, I attended the Velocity 2012 conference hosted by lead pastor Shawn Lovejoy at Mountain Lake Church in Cumming, Ga. For the last seven years, Shawn and his team have invested in the lives of pastors, and in particular church planters, with passion and excellence.
To be invited to speak on leadership development was a delight and privilege. My role was to pour into the young leaders, but I found myself learning and being inspired by the people I met.
Let's be honest: The church faces significant challenges these days, from financial pressures to declining loyalties toward any one church body. My take on the church is positive, very positive in fact, but I hear a lot of negativity.
I talk with team leaders every week where the team is struggling and trying to figure out how to succeed again. I understand. I've been the leader of teams in situations like that many times. Every team experiences times of decline. What you do next almost always determines how long it lasts and how well you recover.
First, I should say that every situation is unique and requires individual attention. Don't use a script for your team. Also, don't be afraid to bring in outside help. It could be anyone, from a paid consultant to a friend who leads another team with whom you trade a favor. Everyone can use a fresh perspective at times. It takes humble and wise leaders to welcome input from outsiders.
I recently spent a couple thousand dollars cutting down and stump-grinding nine trees that I spent hundreds of dollars planting 10 years ago. Seems dumb, I know. But sometimes, that's what it takes.
Perhaps you've seen these trees—they are called Cryptomeria. They grow extremely fast and easily reach 35 to 40 feet and more with a 20-foot spread at the bottom. They are similar to the Leyland Cypress but typically seem to grow larger, more lush, and are deeper green in color.
Core Values: The ideals and values we hold that are non-negotiable, that serve as filters for all of our efforts to accomplish our mission. (My working definition.)
The story of Jehu in 2 Kings 10 came in front of me recently, and reading it again, several things really struck me.
Jehu found Jehonadab coming to meet him. He greeted him and then asked, "Is your heart one with mine?
Unity. We can't accomplish the mission God has given us (helping people find, follow and be- like Jesus) if there is division in the ranks. Without unity, you will be thrown back two steps for every one you think you've made.

As a project manager, your schedule is one of the most critical tools used to manage a project to completion. Microsoft Project helps you schedule a project from the information you enter about the overall project, the individual work items (called tasks) required to complete the project, and, if necessary, the resources (the people, equipment, and materials) needed to complete those tasks. If anything about your project changes after you create your schedule, you can update the tasks or resources and Microsoft Project adjusts the schedule for you.
You can learn more about the ways in which Microsoft Project adjusts your schedule based upon the changes you make by reviewing the answers to the following questions:
For each task, you enter durations, task dependencies, and constraints. Microsoft Project then calculates the start date and finish date for each task. You can enter resources in your project and then assign them to tasks to indicate which resource is responsible for completing each assignment, and to calculate how many machines are needed or how much material will be consumed.
If you enter resources, task schedules are further refined according to resource work, units, and working times entered on calendars. Other elements, such as lead time and lag time, task types, resource availability, and the driving resource can affect scheduling, so understanding the effects of these elements can help you maintain and adjust your schedule as needed.
Back to top
If you enter a start date for the project, by default, Microsoft Project schedules tasks to begin on the project's start date and calculates the project's finish date based on the last task to finish. As you enter more information about tasks, such as task dependencies, durations, and constraints, Microsoft Project adjusts the schedule to reflect more accurate dates for tasks.
When you create a new project, you first enter the project's start date. When you schedule a project from the start date, all tasks start at the project start date unless you specify otherwise.
With no task dependencies or constraints applied, the project's duration is the same as the duration of the longest task. In other words, the project finish date is the same as the longest task's finish date.
Task dependencies, such as the finish-to-start dependency between the first and second tasks (as shown here), can change the project's finish date.
Most projects should be scheduled from a start date. However, scheduling from the finish date can be useful for determining when a project must start if it must finish on a specific date. You can change various task and resource information to see what effect it has on the project's start date and determine the optimum project start date.
Note You must schedule a project from a start date or from a finish date; you cannot schedule from both start and finish dates. You pick which date you want to use (normally a start date), and Microsoft Project schedules the other date (normally a finish date) for you based on the information you enter into the project plan.
Microsoft Project calculates the duration of tasks based on the definitions of the duration units on the Calendar tab of the Options dialog box (Tools menu). Just like a monthly calendar, when you use outside Microsoft Project, the year begins in January and each week begins on Sunday or Monday.
By default, when Microsoft Project calculates duration units, one day equals 8 hours, one week equals 40 hours, and one month equals 20 working days. If you enter start and finish dates for tasks and don't enter start and finish times, Microsoft Project uses 8:00 A.M. as the default start time and 5:00 P.M. as the default end time.
When you need to control the start or finish date of a task, you can add a constraint to the task. Flexible constraints work with task dependencies to make a task occur as soon or as late as the task dependency will allow. For example, a task with an As Soon As Possible (ASAP) constraint and a finish-to-start dependency will be scheduled as soon as the predecessor task finishes.
Constraints with moderate scheduling flexibility will restrict a task from starting or finishing before or after a date you choose. For example, a task with a Start No Earlier Than (SNET) constraint for June 15 and a finish-to-start dependency to another task can begin June 15 if its predecessor is finished by June 15 (or later if its predecessor finishes after June 15), but it can't be scheduled before June 15.
With the default finish-to-start task relationship and an ASAP constraint applied to these tasks, the successor task (the second one) is scheduled to begin as soon as the predecessor task (the first one) is scheduled to finish.
With a SNET constraint applied, the successor task cannot begin before the constraint date, even if (as shown here) the predecessor task is completed before the constraint date.
Inflexible constraints override any task dependencies and restrict a task to a date you choose. For example, a task with a Must Start On (MSO) constraint for September 30 and a finish-to-start dependency to another task will always be scheduled for September 30 no matter whether its predecessor finishes early or late.
If a task constrained to a date has a predecessor that finishes too late for the successor to begin on the date specified in the constraint, negative slack can occur. To specify that constrained tasks with negative slack are scheduled according to their task dependencies rather than the constraint dates, on the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the Schedule tab. Clear the Tasks will always honor their constraint dates check box.
Deadline dates don't usually affect task scheduling. Deadline dates are used to indicate a target date you don't want to miss, without requiring you to set a task constraint that could affect scheduling if predecessor tasks change. A task with a deadline is scheduled just like any other task, but when a task finishes after its deadline, Microsoft Project displays a task indicator notifying you that the task missed its deadline.
Deadline dates can affect total slack on tasks. If you enter a deadline date before the end of the task's total slack, total slack will be recalculated using the deadline date rather than the task's late finish date. The task becomes critical if the total slack reaches zero.
You can set deadlines for summary tasks as well as individual tasks. If the summary task's deadline conflicts with any of the subtasks, the deadline indicator signifies a missed deadline among the subtasks.
But deadline dates can affect how tasks are scheduled if you set a deadline date on a task with an As Late As Possible (ALAP) constraint. The task is scheduled to finish on the deadline date, though the task could still finish after its deadline if its predecessors slipped.
Calendars determine the standard working time and nonworking time, such as weekends and holidays, for the project. They are used to determine resource availability, how resources assigned to tasks are scheduled, and how tasks themselves are scheduled. Project and task calendars are used in scheduling tasks, and if resources are assigned to tasks, resource calendars are used as well.
The calendars referred to in Microsoft Project are:
If you don't assign resources to tasks in your project, Microsoft Project calculates the schedule using task durations, task dependencies, constraints, and project and task calendar information. If you do assign resources, the tasks are also scheduled according to resources' calendars and assignment units, providing for more accurate scheduling.
An assignment is the association of a specific task with a specific resource responsible for completing the task. More than one resource can be assigned to a task. Both work resources and material resources can be assigned to tasks. Unlike work resources, assigning material resources to a task does not affect task scheduling.
For example, in your project you have a task named "Develop specifications." You also have an engineering resource, Sean. If you assign Sean to the Develop specifications task, this intersection of the task and resource is the assignment. The scheduling of this task depends on Sean's resource calendar and assignment units, in addition to task information such as duration, dependencies, constraints, and calendars.
In addition to scheduling according to task information, after you assign resources to the tasks in your project, Microsoft Project has resource and assignment information to use in calculating schedule information, including:
After you have entered all pertinent project information and are ready to begin the project, you can set a baseline and begin to track actual progress on tasks. When you enter an actual start date or actual finish date for a task, Microsoft Project updates the scheduled dates for that task in the Start and Finish fields. The baseline start and finish dates, however, are not affected by changes you make to the actual or scheduled dates.
When you update or enter progress on tasks, Microsoft Project calculates the difference between a task's baseline start dates and the scheduled start dates, and shows that difference in the Start Variance field. The variance is also calculated between the baseline finish dates and scheduled finish dates, shown in the Finish Variance field. When tasks are completed, the variance is calculated between the baseline start and finish dates and the actual start and finish dates.
If changes you've made to tasks affect their start or finish dates or their successors' start or finish dates, the new dates become scheduled start and finish dates. Scheduled start and finish dates show the current status of the project as a result of the changes you made.
You can also compare baseline, scheduled, and actual dates to dates in an interim plan if you want to see incremental progress on your project.

TORONTO (AP) - Clay Buchholz pitched seven shutout innings to earn his major league-leading sixth win, Mike Napoli hit two of Boston's five home runs and the Red Sox routed the Toronto Blue Jays 10-1 on Wednesday night.
Stephen Drew hit a two-run shot in the second inning and Napoli went back-to-back with Daniel Nava in the fourth as the Red Sox won their majors-best 19th game and improved to 8-3 away from home, the best road record in the big leagues.
Buchholz (6-0) allowed two hits, walked three and struck out eight, improving to 7-0 in his past eight starts at Toronto.
Blue Jays left-hander Mark Buehrle (1-2) gave up five runs and seven hits in 6 2-3 innings. He walked a season-high three and struck out one.

Medium brown in colour with hints of red. Aromas of vanilla chocolates, English pale malts, and a hint of smoke. More malt in the mouth with a much more pronounced whisky-ish sour-smoke twang, which created a nice balance with the sweet malts (in lieu of hop bitterness, I guess). There's a hint of burnt malt flavor as well. Somewhat oily texture, but in a very nice way. Even though I was expecting to enjoy this one, it still managet to exceeded my expectations. Great stuff.

On tap at Volo.
Poured into a nonic. Dark brown-ruby, left a fairly sturdy head with a thin ring surviving the first few minutes.
Nose is dark malt, bread, smoke, a bit of meat and dark fruit.
Nice little smoked beer, good character to it. Smokey, but not oppressively so, as the brew has some decent malt character, caramel, chocolate and fruit to it as well. Very tasty.
Thinner bodied, slightly harsh carbonation.
Decent smoked brew, nice find on tap. Would be fun to BBQ with.

Black and licorice taste exceeded smoke taste, and no smoke aroma. More roast than smoke, like a stout, Thats good. Much carbonation, however. New formulation? Some fruitiness and malt made it balanced.. Surprisingly enjoyable directly form them at the 2004 St. Lawrence fest.

The body is black with hints of brown. A thin tan head of low retention and no lace caps this.
In the aroma are hints of smoke and toasted sesame seeds almost of a burn nature. Overripe fruity molasses, whisky malt and bourbon barrel scents round out the nose.
The beer is smooth, rich and malty dominated by roasted notes. Some smoked flavours mix with hints of coffee bean. A drying finish with some astringency from the roasted malts cuts off suddenly with a hint of iron like tang. The body is smooth but remains light with a medium low carbonation level.
There was far less smoke character in this beer then I was anticipating which was a bit of a letdown.

Bottle: Poured a black color ale with medium head with very little retention. Aroma is lightly smoked with some strong malt. Taste is quite enjoyable, almost like a mix between a light scotch ale with some notes of malt a little bit of smoke. As previously mentioned in past rating, body is a bit thin and Im not sure this should be considered a smoke ale since there is very little smoke in this.

Thanks to cattersley! He was wounded, but not dead!
Pours a dark brown with ruby edges. Given the circumstances, the slight ring of head and bubbles are beautiful! The aroma is meaty, smoky, and rich with caramel. Taste is sweet, somewhat nutty, smoky and with a mild bacon not. Not as robust as the aroma. Good feel overall.
Enjoyed this...love me a meaty, bacon smoked beer!

Had this on tap at the Renaissance Cafe on the Danforth in Toronto. This dark smoked beer is a dark brown with a hint of red in the light. The head is a golden brown and retains and laces very well. The smell is almost like a campfire, friendly and inviting. The taste is great, with hints of bacon and roasted malts. The mouthfeel is very smooth and creamy. I love this beer, I have never had anything quite like it. I could drink this all day, and I probably will.

The Church Key Holy Smoke Scotch Ale is one of the first Smoked Scotch Ales that I had ever had. It was probably in 2004 when I was first getting into real beer, and the idea of a scotch ale brewed with peat smoked barley malt really enticed me; and it still does.
This is exactly the case with the Holy Smoke - peat smoked whiskey malt is imported from Scotland and used to brew this 6.25% abv scotch ale. Church Key Brewing has been brewing since 2000 in a 1878 Methodist Church, hence the name. They are your typical small batch craft brewer, and make award winning and delicious beers using only malt, hops, water and yeast.
To my dismay, they Holy Smoke is not available at the LCBO, however a well stocked beer bar carrying Ontario Craft Beers will usually have it. I walked over to Smokeless Joe in Toronto on John St. just south or Richmond to enjoy a bottle of one of my long time favorites.
The Holy Smoke was served to me in a Church Key Snifter, which put a nice big smile on my face. It poured out smooth and easily building a deep dark brown beer as close to black as you can get without really being black. Into the sun it shone with glimmers of ruby red and amber. A short, almost half inch velvety white head built on the beer and quickly faded to a slight film within a few minutes.
The nose is full of smoke and roast with soft malty notes of sweet caramel and burnt brown sugar. It shows a creamy bread like quality in the back, but is pretty much dominated by peat smoke and a hint of whiskey. Its not massive though, the smoke is relatively gentle and leads into hints of sweet wood, grass and herbs.
Getting right into the Holy Smoke is easy. Often these smoked beers, especially smoked scotch ales, can be a bit overpowering or heavy on the palate. Church Key though does a great job a creating flavor, but keeping a good balance and a fine mouthfeel. The snifter was pretty cool when served to me, and it did widen in flavor as it warmed. But even right away it brought along smooth silky smoke flavors of light char, sweet wood, toasted almonds and bitter roast chocolate.
Malt comes in smoothly with soft caramel, roasted barley, cereal, bread and earth. The smoke here shows a sweet lightness reminiscent to classically peat smoked whiskeys. Again though, it is not a big smoke, it is somewhat gentle and floats over your palate with light and airy simpleness. This beer is not hugely complex, or deep in flavor - it is rather very easy to drink and turned out to be very refreshing. Flavors more play easily on your palate rather than sink into it.
Soft floral hops show hints of bitter to balance the beer's light brown sugar malt sweetness. The mouthfeel is very light and thin, more so than I am used to in a smoked beer. It really did work for the Holy Smoke though. It gives it a very approachable feeling making it a great beer to introduce people to smoke beers. If you have had any smoked beers before, you know some of them can be relatively aggressive or overpowering. As much as I love the Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier, it's massive smoked sausage flavors may be too much for the lighter palates.
Look for the Holy Smoke when out at pubs or well stocked restaurants and try it with roast beef, hamburgers, anything with cheese or big pastas. I will do the trick!

A very well-shaped smoked beer. On tap at the Pub Italia, Ottawa.
Dark brown, large-bubbled tan head. Smells of smoke... Taste is initially smokey, yielding to a sweeter body, with a sweet tang finish. A friend said "tastes like smoked salmon". I'm actually inclined to agree - no fish taste, of course, but a nicely restrained smokiness with a solid beer to back it up. So many brewers miss the mark with specialty beers, inclining to overwhelm the drinker with trademark flavour - this is not that beer. Nice!

Pours an almost opaque black, with almost no head or lacing. Smokey aroma, roasty, toffee and some grain. Taste was somewhat smokey, with roasted notes, coffee, burnt bitterness. Not quite a session ale, but still very drinkable. I'm not a big fan of church key, but this is one of their better offerings.

thanks to Cattersley for this trade.
A: First to note - sharp white graphic on the bottle is striking and sophisticated. the ale poured a deep black brown and glows a deep garnet when held to the light. Capped off with a finger of velvety head - it settles to a solid ring around the glass.
S: Solid smoky peat, wet wood and wet hay, deeply earthy and reminiscent of a old animal barn.
T: Reflects the smell to a T - Peaty smoke with plenty of wet wood and that barnyard funkiness. Very powerful smokiness that somewhat overshadows some of the other scotch ale notes, but as the palette adjusts to the smokiness notes caramel and dark toffee notes shine through.
M: Very subtle buzz of carbonation that supports the peaky smoke. A medium mouth feel that holds in the mouth.
O: A powerful smoky offering that pulls no punches - it's unabashedly forward in the smoky smell and taste and offers a deeply earthy and barnyard profile. It may be somewhat one sided, but does so boldly without attempting to be something it isn't.
Would be terrific with jerk chicken or bar-b-que steak, as a side dish.

On draught at WVRST, into a pint glass. Scotch ale made with smoked peat. Alcohol on this was higher than listed here, around 6.3% I believe.
Dark red/burgundy, with clarity around the edges. Bubbles serve as a very transient head, but ultimately, nothing retains and only shreds of lacing. Nose has chocolate, light peatiness and strong dark caramel notes. Taste has smoked wood, peat and a bit of burnt plastic, but this subsides as the glass warms. More chocolate and rich caramel notes. Malty scotch ale character comes through in the finish. Medium body, low carbonation and a nice pairing with my Boerewors. Easily consumed and I would hit this up again.

Retired? Had it just a week or so ago at Volo's on tap. Poured a deep, dark brown. Rather clear and not opaque with a short lived, large bubbled tan head. Rings of lacing. Roasted smokey malt aromas.
Taste of a caramel that had been sitting next to a campfire. Reminded me of a watered down scotch. Body lacked much of what was expected, which detracted from its drinkability. Great, real type of smoke flavor, not like they dumped some fake smoke into the batch..

Appearance: It has a nice deep mahogany/amber color to it. It has a nice creamy beige head that dies down moderately fast and leaves little lacing.
Smell: The aromas definitely give out hints of toasted malts, chocolate, a bunch of smokiness and some woody notes as well.
Taste: Like the aromas, it has some smoky notes, toasted malts, light chocolate, some sweet caramel and faint wood.
Mouthfeel: It has a medium carbonation with a nice overall balance and feel.
Drinkability: It's a very smooth drinkable beer accompanied by good flavors and aromas.

650 mL bottle from the LCBO listed at 6.2%; best before Mar. 6 2013. I've generally heard good things about Church Key, but since I live outside of their distribution range, finding any of their offerings has been a tad troublesome. Grabbing this one while shopping in London was thus a bit of a no-brainer, but the fact that I haven't tried a new smoked beer in the better part of a year also factored into the decision. Poured into a mug.
Pours a brownish cola colour - seemingly opaque at first, but holding it up under the light reveals the liquid's inherent clarity (and some ruby red tinges). Topped with one finger of light beige-coloured head that recedes relatively rapidly, leaving behind a dense collar around the edge, and a thin, wispy film at the surface. The aroma is rich and enticing, with plenty of roasted malts and molasses underlying notes of bacon, glazed ham, peat and hickory smoke, with a faint hint of coffee grinds that is difficult to separate from the rest of the bouquet.
This is tasty stuff, with a wide range of different flavours mingling and (more importantly) complementing each other nicely. Roasted malts, caramel and molasses come through first, followed by some ambiguous hints of dark fruit. A few peaty notes. The smoke is only an ephemeral presence at first, but surges forth in the finish, imparting hints of smoked wood and bacon/pork that linger into the aftertaste. The flavour definitely improves a little as it warms. On the lighter side of medium-bodied, with mild carbonation that gives this brew a smooth, slick mouthfeel. Very drinkable, but more suited to washing down your dinner than sessioning.
Final Grade: 4.08, a solid A-. Church Key's Holy Smoke Scotch Ale is one of the more interesting brews I've had in the last month or so. The smokiness is not as intense or meaty as in genuine rauchbiers, but it's still a constant, distracting presence throughout the flavour profile, which I feel makes this particular brew a perfect introduction to smoked beers for any interested newbies. I enjoyed this bottle on its own, but this is the sort of beer that is really begging to be paired up with (or used in!) some sort of hearty pork/beef dish. All in all, this was a fabulous OCB offering that I wish was available locally! I'll definitely keep an eye out for more stuff from this brewer, and would eagerly encourage others to sample this.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- The 25th Thunder Over Louisville celebration will take a look back at the history of the popular fireworks show.
Wednesday morning, the Kentucky Derby Festival announced that this year's theme will be "Throwback Thunder." The soundtrack will highlight songs from each year of the annual show.
Horseshoe Southern Indiana, KentuckyOne Health, LG&E, Meijer and UPS will all be returning as sponsors for the event, and Valero will join them this year.
McDonald's will sponsor the Thunder Funder program and will donate a portion of its local drink sales to support Thunder over Louisville.
"Thunder has grown, and with the sponsorship additions that we've had and also the sponsorship through Thunder Funder and Ford's Thunder on the Ground and the partnerships that we've done with these great folks, it makes risk taking a little easier," said Mike Berry, Kentucky Derby Festival president.
This year's Thunder over Louisville fireworks and air show will be held on April 12.

ASIA/PAKISTAN - Asia Bibi's appeal process does not start because of "orders" received
Lahore (Agenzia Fides) - The case of Asia Bibi, a Christian woman sentenced to death for blasphemy, is "a very sensitive case and of high profile: the administration of the Lahore High Court - where the appeal process should start - has received "orders not to schedule hearings for the moment and we do not know for how much longer". This is what the lawyer, Sardar Mushtaq Gill told Fides, who in past days was in close contact with the administration of the court, together with the other lawyer, S.K. Choudhry. This explains, therefore, the continuous postponement of the first hearing of the appeal, the last of which occurred on May 27, when the hearing suddenly disappeared from the list of cases under discussion.
As reported to Fides, the lawyers are looking for a legal way to unlock the case and are looking into the possibility of asking for an official clarification to the President of the High Court, to ensure that justice is done to the woman. One avenue, they refer to Fides, is to appeal to Art. 561/of the Code of Criminal Procedure, which confers "special powers" to a Court, to prevent or correct obvious injustices and abuses committed by other courts. Another possibility, however, is the application of Art. 426 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, asking for the suspension of the sentence and the release of the applicant on bail. "We will do everything in our power so that justice is done", said the lawyers. (PA) (Agenzia Fides 05/06/2014)

CEO Note: Calling on President Obama and Congress to End Tax Breaks For Oil Companies
Last night in his speech before the joint session of Congress, President Obama asked this important question:
"Should we keep tax loopholes for oil companies? Or should we use that money to give small business owners a tax credit when they hire new workers?"
The stakes are significant. The multi-national oil companies receive more than $4 billion in tax breaks every year from the United States, according to The New York Times.
And of course international companies like Exxon, BP, and Shell spend hundreds of millions of dollars on lobbyists and political campaigns in the United States to ensure that they keep those American tax breaks.
Earlier this year, President Obama tried to reduce the tax breaks handed out to oil multinationals, but Congress refused to consider it in this spring's budget talks.
And all the while, oil companies continued to spend some of their record profits on perpetrating the falsehood that Americans need them to keep drilling in the American ocean and the American Arctic in order to save us money at the pump.
I've said it before, and I'll repeat it. Increased domestic drilling will have little to no effect on your gas prices, because the price of oil is set on the international market. Surging international demand, or reductions in international production, has a much bigger effect on your gas prices than do slow and incremental changes in domestic production.
Moreover, when we expand domestic drilling and allow hazardous actions like BP took last year in the deep waters of the Gulf of Mexico, we take all the environmental risk at home, but share any oil finds with the international market. Does that seem smart to you?
The international oil companies want Americans to believe that if we let them drill enough, and give them big enough tax breaks, the American price of gas will drop. The facts show that's not true.
Offering oil companies tax breaks in the hopes they'll lower your gas price is like offering your teenager a bigger allowance in the hope they'll take smaller portions at dinner.

What if an Oil Spill Happened in the Arctic?
Andy Sharpless is the CEO of Oceana.
Less than a year after the Deepwater Horizon gusher was finally sealed, oil companies are claiming they can drill safely in the Arctic Ocean, an even more fragile and forbidding environment than the Gulf of Mexico. Unfortunately, our government seems to be suffering from amnesia, too.
This month, Shell Oil received a conditional approval from the federal government to drill four exploratory wells next summer in Alaska's Beaufort Sea. The company claims that it can end a gushing spill like the Deepwater Horizon in just 43 days and clean up 90 percent of oil lost.
These claims aren't based in historic experience and have little scientific evidence to back them up. Crews were only able to recover 10 percent of the oil escaping the Macondo well in the Gulf of Mexico last summer, and only 8 percent of oil from the Exxon Valdez spill.
The most recent oil spill drill in the Beaufort Sea was in 2000 and was described as a "failure." Mechanical systems like skimmers and booms in calm but icy conditions simply didn't work. The technology has not improved since then. Just watch this video of a failed cleanup test:

The Real Reason for High Gas Prices
Andy Sharpless is the CEO of Oceana; this post also appeared on Politico.
Why do we take terrible risks to drill for oil in the Gulf of Mexico and elsewhere along our coasts?
Most people would say we drill to protect ourselves from big fluctuations in the price of a gallon of gas that are caused by the major upheavals in the Middle East. Look at this chart (data from the Energy Information Administration):
Their argument is that the more oil we can produce domestically, the lower the price we'll pay at the pump. It's not that they like the sight of oil wells off our beaches. The main reason they are doing so is they think it will save them money – especially as gas prices approached $4 a gallon recently.
This idea is not only intuitively appealing, it is repeatedly, and unambiguously, promoted by important government officials from both parties. Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-La) defended new legislation that would expand offshore oil drilling, saying "this bill would do more to lower gas prices at the pump than any other plan." Sarah Palin criticized President Barack Obama, "His war on domestic oil and gas exploration and production has caused us pain at the pump."

More Dolphin Deaths in the Gulf
Andy Sharpless is the CEO of Oceana. You can follow him on Twitter @Oceana_Andy.
Nearly a year has passed since the Deepwater Horizon exploded and began a three-month-long oil spill. In the later months of last year, after the gushing oil well had finally been capped, some people – politicians and TV talking heads, really – tried to convince Americans that the Gulf had recovered.
It's true that we still don't know the extent of the damage wrought by last summer's oil disaster. The subsurface gusher created a whole new scientific challenge when it came to understanding exactly what was going on. And we've said that it would be years before we understand the true cost of the disaster.
Just recently we got a sign that not is all well in the Gulf. Since January, more than 80 bottlenose dolphins have turned up dead – and half of those are newborn or stillborn calves. The government is calling it "an unusual mortality event."

Victory! Drilling Halted in Eastern Gulf, Atlantic and Pacific Coasts
In a huge victory for the oceans and Oceana, this afternoon Interior Secretary Ken Salazar announced that in the new five-year drilling plan, no new offshore drilling would be allowed in the Eastern Gulf of Mexico or off the Atlantic and Pacific coasts. The Eastern Gulf of Mexico will be protected from offshore oil and gas exploration for the next seven years.
These areas were being considered for oil and gas development, and the Administration had previously indicated support for exploration in the Atlantic Ocean, as well as in the Eastern Gulf, though Congressional action would be needed in that area. They also announced the start of a new process to reconsider drilling in the Arctic's Beaufort Sea. This is a step in the right direction, but there is still more on the table and more that must be done to protect the Arctic Ocean.
Oceana has been working for many years to ban offshore drilling, and this victory provides an important step in the right direction towards protecting our oceans from the dangers of offshore drilling, and moving towards cleaner and safer alternative sources of energy.
Hey Big Oil, Clean Up Your Mess
Today, Congress returns from elections to wrap up its work for this session, which means that time is running out for the Senate to pass any legislation in response to the Gulf of Mexico oil spill. The House of Representatives already passed their version of a spill response bill back in July, and now it is the Senate's turn to act.
The Gulf of Mexico needs help, and it needed it yesterday. Of course, the only way to prevent another catastrophe like the Deepwater Horizon oil spill is to ban new offshore oil and gas drilling. In the meantime, the least we can do is pass a bill to clean up and restore the devastation that the oil industry has inflicted upon our oceans and coasts.

Day 29: Heading to the 'Alabama Alps'
Senior campaign communications manager Dustin Cranor is back on board the Latitude after a short hiatus on land, and he's here to tell you about the latest leg of the expedition in the "Alabama Alps," an ecologically rich reef in the Gulf of Mexico. More on that below in the video with our chief scientist, Mike Hirshfield.
Here's Dustin:
Thursday, September 9
As Will Race and the rest of our Alaskan colleagues headed back to Juneau this week, a new crew was making its way to Gulfport, Mississippi to board the Oceana Latitude.
Our next mission? Documenting seafloor habitat areas along the continental shelf of the Gulf of Mexico that may have been harmed by underwater oil.
During this leg, Spanish ROV operators Jose Manuel Saez and Josep Fleta will use a device to reach depths of approximately 1,500 feet and film in high-definition.
The Oceana Latitude also welcomed support divers Thierry Lannoy (France) and Jesus Molino (Spain), as well as Maribel Lopez from Oceana's Madrid office. Dr. Michael Hirshfield has also returned to the ship. Here he is talking about this leg of the expedition:
Dr. Michael Hirshfield on Oceana Latitude Describes Deepwater ROV Research Sept. 9, 2010 from Oceana on Vimeo.
Oceana Divers Explore Life Under Gulf Oil Rig
In today's update from the boat, expedition leader Xavier Pastor discusses the preparations for the next leg of the journey, and the divers' exploration of the waters beneath one of the gulf's myriad oil rigs.
It's incredible to think about communities of marine life living in the shadows of oil rigs, isn't it?
Have a burning question about our ongoing expedition in the gulf? Ask it in the comments!
Here's Xavier:
Tuesday, 9/7/10
The Latitude is like an anthill. There's a crane working on deck to remove some of the materials that were used in the last stage of the expedition: anchors, compressors, chains, ropes, buoys...
Part of the Oceana crew is also packing their bags in order to make room for the new members of the expedition who are slowly making their way to the boat.
The frenetic activity on-board is slowed only by the heat. It's so hot, and the humidity is so high, that even the boat's operators have to stop and drink water to avoid dehydration.
Mapping the Oil Plume
On Friday the Latitude set off on the next leg of the journey: measuring the underwater oil plume in the Gulf of Mexico. Here's our on-board dispatcher for this leg, Will Race, on the very wet start to the experiment:
On Friday, the crew held a strategy meeting to discuss the next seven days and what's in store. Pacific Science Director Dr. Jeff Short explained his science experiment: The basic approach for evaluating the subsurface oil plumes will be the deployment of an array of moorings with sensor strips every 100 meters.
Moorings will be deployed in three main areas: 12 within 5 km of the wellhead, 12 in a rectangular array extending up to 90 km to the northeast of the wellhead, and 12 in another rectangular array extending up to 90 km southwest of the wellhead.
With everyone in agreement, it was time to go. Due to the drastically shallow shore line, the Mississippi Port Authorities require a local captain come aboard to navigate boats through the shallows, until they are offshore. An additional treat was when pelicans and various other marine birds decided to escort us out to sea.
Once out at sea, the Oceana team continued to assemble gear for the next day's first mooring drop. We traveled nearly 10 hours to the first drop site.

When that happens, ad agencies often turn to Ugly Models, a modelling agency in London that specializes in weird-looking actors and models.
Like most agencies, Ugly offers "girls" and "guys." But it also has categories for "wee folks" (dwarves), "thugs" (exactly what you think), "bikers," "twins," "bodies" (bodybuilders) and "x-files" (often people with an extreme number of tattoos or body piercings).

Mexican appliance company Mabe, a joint-venture with General Electric Co., announced that it closed a U.S. $400-million bank loan that it will use to refinance existing debt.
The 5-year loan will be priced using a leverage grid, which decreases interest as the borrower lowers debt, and has an initial Libor margin of 100 basis points, Mabe said.
The appliance company also said ABN Amro, Citigroup Global Markets and Standard Chartered were joint lead arrangers for the loan.
