RIO DE JANEIRO -- Petrobras, said that the its board had approved the sale of $2.1 billion of assets as it ramped up an ongoing divestment plan.
In the biggest of several deals, Petrobras said that it would sell the firm' s 35% stake in the offshore Parque das Conchas oil field to Sinochem for $1.54 billion. The transaction continued the growing presence of Chinese oil companies in Brazil as the Asian nation seeks natural resources to feed its economy. Sinochem also paid $3.1 billion for a 40% stake in the Peregrino field operated by Statoil in 2012, as well as stakes in several other offshore blocks in a separate deal with Perenco.
The Parque das Conchas field is operated by Royal Dutch Shell, which holds a 50% stake in the field. ONGC holds the remaining 15%. Both firms have the right to pre-emt the deal and buy Petrobras' s 35% stake within 30 days, Petrobras said.
Petrobras also said that it would sell its stake in petrochemicals firm Petroquimica Innova to Videolar for $372 million and the assumption of $9.6 million in debt. Earlier this week, Petrobras CFO Almir Barbassa said that the company planned to accelerate asset sales in the second half of 2013 as part of a $9.9 billion divestment plan announced earlier this year. Previously, the company sold half of its assets in Africa to investment bank BTG Pactual as part of a joint venture deal.
Petrobras also sold stakes in other oil fields the company owns abroad, including holdings in several Gulf of Mexico exploration blocks. Petrobras needs the cash to fund an ambitious $237 billion investment plan through 2017 that will develop massive offshore oil fields in Brazil. Petrobras discovered billions of barrels of crude oil trapped beneath a thick layer of salt off the country' s Atlantic Ocean coast.
The undertaking, however, has stretched the company' s finances. Petrobras' s debt has risen dramatically in recent years to fund the world' s largest corporate spending plan, while the company' s bottom line has also been undercut by the government' s reluctance to raise domestic fuel prices for fear of stoking inflation. Petrobras imports hefty amounts of gasoline and diesel to make up a refining shortfall and meet growing demand from Brazilian drivers, but it sells the two fuels at a discount to international benchmarks because of the pricing policy.
In smaller deals also announced, Petrobras said it would sell the company' s holdings in three producing oil fields in the Gulf of Mexico for $185 million. The company will also unload a 20% stake in Companhia Energetica Potiguar, operator of two thermal power plants, to Global Participacoes em Energia for $16 million, Petrobras said.

Summary: Professor Aaboe gives here the reader a feeling for the universality of important mathematics, putting each chosen topic into its proper setting, thus bringing out the continuity and cumulative nature of mathematical knowledge. The material he selects is mathematically elementary, yet exhibits the depth that is characteristic of truly great thought patterns in all ages. The success of this exposition is due to the author's unique approach to his subject. He wisely refrains from attem ...show morepting a general survey of mathematics in antiquity, but selects, instead, a few representative items that he can treat in detail. He describes Babylonian mathematics as revealed from cuneiform texts discovered only recently, as well as more familiar topics developed by the Greeks. Although each chapter can be read as a separate unit, there are many connecting threads. Aaboe stays as close to the original texts as is comfortable for a modern reader, and the bibliography enables the interested student to delve more deeply into any aspect of ancient mathematics that catches his or her fancy. ...show less

Managing Acne For A Healthy Looking Face
Having healthy, acne free skin is often a challenge. When hormones start to change or stress levels rise those pesky pimples seem to come up all over and always at the wrong time. So it is important to take time to find methods to keep your face clean and healthy to prevent breakouts.
The first thing you need to do is find a good soap that rinses clean. Most soaps leave a residue on your skin that can clog up pores and actually cause breakouts. Making sure that the soap you use rinses completely clean will keep pores open and unclogged. When washing use really warm water and a cloth that will help exfoliate your skin so that the dead skin cells are washed away as well. Once you have worked the soap over your skin, rinse very well and pat dry with a soft towel.
Next, it is good to use some sort of astringent. Some of these come in pre-soaked, medicated pads and others come in large bottles that you can use with a cotton pad or ball. Take the astringent and work it over your face and neck. These cleaners may burn a bit, but often will leave a cool, refreshing feeling on your skin. If the cotton pad comes back with signs of dirt, repeat until the pad that you are using is completely clear.
If your face already has a couple of pimples, or you have had a recent breakout, it is a good idea to get a spot treatment. These creams can be dabbed onto the pimple and help to dry them out and remove the infection. Along with that, using a weekly mask, designed for breakouts, helps with getting rid of any current breakouts.
Finally, you want to make sure you use a moisturizer that also has SPF in it. Be sure you pick one that is right for your skin type. While keeping your face clean is the best way to keep zits at bay, if you let your skin get dry, break outs can still occur. When you use a moisturizer, it will keep your face looking bright and healthy, and the SPF will protect your skin from the damage cause by UV rays from the sun.
If you keep up with cleansing your face twice a day, it will make a big difference in the amount and severity of breakouts. With diligent attention, your face will be shining and clear, giving you a greater sense of confidence.

Oct 29, 2014 - One of the best oils that works on my hair type and a little bit goes a long way.
Oct 29, 2014 - One of the best oils that works on my hair type and a little bit goes a long way.
Jun 12, 2014 - Needed a quick fix due to humidity and this one did the trick. Placed a small dab on my palm, was super suprised how light weight it felt and then ran it through my whole head of hair. it definitely made a quick difference to smooth things down a bit. I also tried it to smooth down my bangs for my ponytail and it was amazing to smooth back my curls to make a very neat pull back. Using it for a couple of tricks, it did better than expected.
May 13, 2014 - What i like most about this product is using it as a refresher and carrying it along with me as i am out and about. my hair was a frizz ball all weekend so I just kept using this to keep it calm and managable. i also have been using it more as a leave-in as I wash and go it that seems to help reduce some frizz as the heat has started.
Oct 23, 2012 - TWO LOCATIONS: please see reviews under zip code 35242
Jan 29, 2011 - Melinda first did my color, which was fantastic. Not only did is last past 6- 8 weeks but she really gave suggestions on what would be best for my skin tone. I recently went back to get my curls cut and styled. I LOVE it. She has curly hair herself so she understand that how to get lift and the framing of your face without cutting too much. Melinda is great. I love going to her.
Dec 10, 2009 - I got a wonderful cut and highlight that enhanced my curl definition and the best part is Rachel is so flexible with your schedule so makes it easy. She also does a great consultation based on understanding your curl type and questions on how much time I spend each day on styling so she knew the best cut for me.

'Tie Alley' in downtown San Luis Obispo has seen its final days.
We paid a visit last week to meet with the woman behind the art. Lynn Hessler created 'Tie Alley' more than a year ago. The initial inspiration came to Lynn while she was hanging her laundry on her clothing wire. She sought out to create something special from something seemingly so simple, so she decided to hang up hundreds of ties; all different colors and patterns.
The installation soon took on a life of its own. Many San Luis Obispo locals would stop by the Chorro street alley specifically to check out Lynn's creation.
'Tie Alley' eventually took shape in the form of a pay-it-forward movement. Some locals would replace existing ties with new items in their place.
After staying open for one year, property owner Natalie Tartaglia has decided to lock the alley gate. "The decision to close is a private matter," said Tartaglia. She had no further comments.
Offensive or inappropriate comments are subject to removal. To report a comment, please e-mail us at firstname.lastname@example.com, and include the name of the story and information on the comment.

When centuries ago some Nordic god invented the ski, this is what he had in mind: the Rossignol Soul 7. It's just everything a pair of skis needs to be. It's a wide ski, but very nimble as well. It carves good on piste, yet has enough float in powder. It cuts through chopped snow and crud beautifully. It's stable, yet as playful as a puppy. Versatility all along. And the appearence is breathtaking.

Funniest movie of all time.
At a risk of having this thread totally degenerate . . . but in line with the spirit of it:
Why did god make farts smelly? So that the deaf can enjoy them too!
OK, to compensate for that tasteless lapse, when I was in India I found that cooks there add asafoetida ('hing' in Hindi) to lentil and bean curries. A quarter to half a level teaspoon of 'hing' in the pot brings down the level of flatulence. It works!
Nice, what cleaver are you using 1303?
That looks tasty. I have a bunch of Rancho Gordo beans that need using, so I might try this out. And nothing says Cowboy more than Kombu AND custom Moritaka cleaver.
Btw, I once heard a doctor talk about farts and he said that we are all cultured from infants to be pleased by them. Gassy infants learn that farting (and burping) relieve gas pressure and make you feel better. Interesting point, and it just takes ridicule in school and dating to change all of that baby learning

The mods also censor farting in KKF posts.

I bought the fig tree from Amazon and it was about 2-3 inches tall when I first got it (sometime in mid July). I thought I had taken pictures of it during this time, but I can't find them.
Anyways, this is the fig tree at about 1 month old:
And these are pictures of it from a week ago (at this point, the fig tree was about 2.5 months old)
Right now, the tree is about 12 inches tall. I plan on planting this into the ground next season. My questions for now are: should I just pluck the leaves and leave it in my garage? Or should I put it in an area in my house where it can get sunlight? |
Follow-Up Postings:
If it has been outside all this time, I would probably allow the leaves to fall off naturally, allowing it to go dormant. Then I'd place it in an unheated garage where it will remain dormant until next spring, watering only once a month or so, just to keep it from completely drying out. |
- Posted by hoosierbanana none (My Page) on Tue, Oct 2, 12 at 1:26
The growth is still soft so you should not let it get frosted or freeze until it can harden its growth. Cold weather will speed up dormancy but I think you should move it into your garage at night when the first couple of cold periods arrive because it still looks pretty green. |

Omni, It is neat how fast they grow...very rewarding. |
Thanks bamboo! I'm really hoping that it fruits next summer :-). |

A report titled Internet Opens Elite Colleges to All by Associated Press education writer Justin Pope describes the open courseware movement. This AP story appears in this link to the New York Times and was carried this weekend by numerous other print and online publications. The scope that open courseware has achieved is described in this paragraph from the story:
"MIT's initiative is the largest, but the trend is spreading. More than 100 universities worldwide, including Johns Hopkins, Tufts and Notre Dame, have joined MIT in a consortium of schools promoting their own open courseware. You no longer need a Princeton ID to hear the prominent guests who speak regularly on campus, just an Internet connection. This month, Yale announced it would make material from seven popular courses available online, with 30 more to follow. . . ."
Justin Pope does an excellent job of highlighting the impact of open courseware on different kinds of learners: college students, teachers, online learners outside of the United States (with crucial implications in developing countries) and self-learners. The facts and implications described in this report demonstrate that what was begun at MIT as an Internet experiment has morphed into a fundamental movement within 21st century education.
