What Big Oil and Gas Deals Mean for Australia and the World
Big news hit the oil and gas markets last week when two multi-billion-dollar deals were made in Australia.
Big news hit the oil and gas markets last week when two multi-billion-dollar deals were made in Australia.
The Wall Street Journal reported today that big companies are shifting towards more developed nations for their oil and gas exploration projects. For companies like Shell (NYSE:RDS.A) and Exxon Mobil (NYSE:XOM), higher costs and tighter regulations are balanced by the benefit of political stability, according to the Journal.
The Globe and Mail reported that Shell (NYSE:RDS.A) has halted development operations at the Jumping Pound complex in southern Alberta, Canada. A boom in shale gas has made natural gas prices more competitive, but high development costs remain a challenge, as stated by the Globe.
Justin Smith of Western Canadian Properties Group believes a recent Russia-China deal hasn't hurt British Columbia's LNG dreams.
Below are the top 10 oil companies of 2012, ranked by daily production.
Shale oil has been North America's great experiment, says Oil & Gas Investments Bulletin Editor Keith Schaefer. But in this interview with The Energy Report, he questions the experiment's success and predicts steep declines ahead, with just a few formations left to supply the market. The question is what shale play will last the longest? Read on to find out how—and when—to get positioned for the end of the shale revolution.
A brief overview of oil price developments, supply and demand and significant market movers.
Royal Dutch Shell has confirmed a production-sharing contract to explore shale natural gas reserves in Ukraine in a deal worth approximately $10 billion.
A brief overview of gas price developments, supply and demand and significant market movers.
Royal Dutch Shell is aggressively expanding its gas operations as demand for the commodity continues to rise across regions such as Asia and Europe.

Ready for Something More... Really
I enjoy many outdoor activities and I still try to spend the majority of my Saturday mornings playing beach volleyball with a core group of friends and have met many interesting people that way. Our group has been getting smaller and smaller over the years as people get married, have children and move on with their lives, but we still try to get out and have fun, it just happens less frequently these days. For the most part, I'm looking for someone to complement that part of my life and explore Los Angeles and other destinations with. Enjoying someone's company and really having fun with them, no matter what we're doing, is by far the most important aspect of any relationship to me.
Camping , Coffee and conversation , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Nightclubs/Dancing , Performing arts , Playing sports , Travel/Sightseeing , Watching sports , Wine tasting
Basketball, Billiards / Pool, Cycling, Football, Running, Skiing, VolleyBall, Weights / Machines
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
Middle of the Road
I'm open to nearly any suggestion on the local scene and w-r-t travel. I'm not that interested in frequenting loud bars, but I can be convinced if it's a fun place and I'm always up for dinner and drinks at intimate restaurants.
Love Game of Thrones. Breaking Bad and Dexter were also favorites so I was sad when they hit the end of their runs. I guess you could say I am drawn to anything dark and edgy, but I also get a kick out of White Collar and Suits.
I still enjoy many of the same activities I've been engaged in since moving to the South Bay over a decade ago. I play beach volleyball with friends on many Saturday mornings, but I also try to plan various get-aways throughout the year.
The most interesting thing I've read recently is the Sunday paper. :) My last recreational read was a Clive Cussler novel. I'd like to find the time to read more biographies of interesting people.

text: Kansas Supreme Court Kansas School Funding Case Picks Up Speed By Sam Zeff • Mar 5, 2015 The Kansas Supreme Court on Thursday issued an order that may speed up the appeals process in the ongoing court battle over school funding in the state. In December a three-judge panel of Shawnee County District Court ruled that the state's school funding formula is constitutional but underfunded. While the panel did not say how much more money is needed, it suggested it could be as much as $522 million. Kansas Judges Targeted For Ouster Retain Seats By Dan Margolies • Nov 4, 2014 Kansans voted to retain two Kansas Supreme Court justices under fire for their decision to overturn the death sentences of two brothers in one of the most notorious murder cases in the state's history. The two, Justice Eric S. Rosen and Justice Lee A. Johnson, were appointed to the court by former Democratic Gov. Kathleen Sebelius. Kansas Supreme Court justices are appointed by the governor but stand for retention by voters at the end of their six-year terms. What The Supreme Court Ruling May Mean For Kansas Public Schools By Maria Carter • Mar 7, 2014 Maria Carter / KCUR The Kansas Supreme Court ruled unanimously Friday that the state needs to spend more money on public schools. But it stopped short of giving an exact dollar amount and sent that back to a lower court with instructions. The decision comes almost four years after the first lawsuit was filed. Inequities in the classroom The court found poorer districts were hurt when the legislature cut funding, creating inequities. The Kansas City, Kan., Public Schools cut 400 positions, including 130 teachers, when education budget cuts took effect. Analyzing The Kansas School Funding Ruling By Steve Kraske & Beth Lipoff • Mar 7, 2014 MyTudut / Flickr-CC This morning, the Kansas Supreme Court ruled that a lower court will deal with what it called unconstitutional inadequate funding for the state's K-12 schools. On Friday's Up to Date, we take a look at what the 110-page ruling will mean for school funding, how the lower court might handle the the details and how all this affects this fall's race for the governor's office. Guests: Kansas Supreme Court Disciplines Former AG Kline By Dan Verbeck • Oct 18, 2013 Former Kansas Attorney General Phill Kline has temporarily lost the right to practice law in Kansas.

I made this recipe just as it was posted in the email newsletter I received and I added half a strawberry to the top for decoration. I found that the sour cream topping did not "set" as quickly as I thought it would and thus I believe I may have over-baked them. I made them in two sizes: the 2-1/2" baking cup size as well as the tiny 1" baking cup size. Both turned out sort of dry probably due to the over-baking.The taste, though, was not as good as I expected. I used Hershey's cocoa and it just didn't give any zing to the recipe. The cheesecake part was pretty bland.I believe I have other cheesecake recipes that may be a little more complicated, but have better taste.
