A press release from last week:
RICHMOND, Va., July 1, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Dominion Virginia Power today asked the Virginia State Corporate Commission (SCC) for a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity to build a $1.3 billion state-of-the-art natural gas-fired power station in Greensville County.
If approved, the high-efficiency, combined-cycle station would generate about 1,600 megawatts, enough electricity to power 400,000 typical homes during peak demand. Construction is scheduled to begin next year pending SCC approval.
"Our analysis shows that over the life of this station our customers should save more than $2 billion versus the projected cost for purchasing the same amount of power for customers off the regional power grid," said David Christian, chief executive officer for Dominion Generation. "It will be highly efficient, low cost and very reliable. It will also have excellent environmental attributes and an extremely favorable location for fuel and transmission service."To read more or comment...

From the Associated Press:
BROADVIEW HEIGHTS, Ohio (AP) — A community activist group near Cleveland that opposes oil and gas wells in residential neighborhoods said it plans to appeal a judge's decision to dismiss its lawsuit against the state.
Mothers Against Drilling in Our Neighborhood, which is based in Broadview Heights, claimed the city's Community Bill of Rights approved by voters in 2012 supersedes a state law permitting drilling.
But Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Judge Timothy McCormick dismissed the lawsuit this week, citing a February Ohio Supreme Court case that said municipalities' home rule does not overrule state law regulating oil and gas drilling. The court had given the Ohio Department of Natural Resources exclusive authorization to permit, locate and regulate wells in 2004.To read more or comment...
From the Coalition to Reroute Nexus:
News Release
(Note to Editor: This release includes an attachment containing additional information)
Need for Independent Route Analysis of NEXUS Pipeline Requested by Coalition
July 2, 2015 Medina, OH. - NEXUS Gas Transmission's claim that its current proposed pipeline route is necessary to serve current and future industrial consumers is disputed by the Coalition to Reroute Nexus (CORN). The grassroots organization is asking for an independent analysis to review Nexus' claims and their outright rejection of the City of Green Alternate route supported by CORN.
In a strongly worded letter to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) the leaders of CORN listed multiple discrepancies and undocumented assertions within the Nexus June 12, 2015 filing where the Texas based corporation claimed that a change of the pipeline's route "would not accomplish the Project's purpose and need."
"There has been no disclosure to date that the Nexus proposed route is necessary to provide a direct interconnect with any committed large volume industrial consumer," wrote CORN Board Director David Eigel. Mr. Eigel is a veteran of 33 years in the energy and utility industry as a petroleum engineer and senior executive.
The 250 Nexus pipeline will cover 11 Ohio counties and is a transmission line for natural gas extracted from southern Ohio and intended for resale to international clients at the Dawn Energy Hub in Ontario, Canada. The proposed pipeline route will traverse densely populated counties in northeastern Ohio and could compromise environmentally unique and fragile areas in western Ohio, according to the CORN leaders.

The Mission of the Coalition to Reroute Nexus is to inform, educate, and persuade Nexus to choose a more southerly route largely avoiding higher density counties in the northeastern part of Ohio and the ecologically unique and environmentally sensitive Oak Openings Region in western Ohio. The Coalition's Goal is the creation of a carefully engineered, thoughtfully located Pipeline Safety Corridor that protects the public, the pipeline itself, preserves property values and demonstrates respect for individual property rights.

From a Thursday press release:
BROADVIEW HEIGHTS, OH: Yesterday – in time for the July 4th celebration of American Independence and democracy – the Cuyahoga County Court dismissed a class action lawsuit filed by residents of Broadview Heights to protect their inalienable right to local self-government. The suit was filed against the state of Ohio and the oil and gas industry, as fracking is being forced into communities without their consent.
In November 2012, Broadview Heights residents, with 67% of the vote, adopted a Community Bill of Rights codifying their right to local, democratic self-governance, and rights to water and a healthy environment – banning fracking as a violation of those rights.To read more or comment...
Ohio's first Clinton Sandstone well was drilled in 1887 in Lancaster.
From 1887-2013, Ohio has drilled an estimated 80,000 Clinton wells, mostly shallow wells.
They have produced 8.7 trillion cubic feet of natural. That's enough natural gas to heat all of Ohio's 5 million homes for 26 years at current rates of consumption.

From the University of Colorado-Boulder:
A new University of Colorado Boulder framework used to screen hundreds of organic chemical compounds used in hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, shows that 15 may be of concern as groundwater contaminants based on their toxicity, mobility, persistence and frequency of use.
Using a fast groundwater transport scenario, the team predicted that 41 of the 659 organic compounds screened would have 10 percent or more of their initial concentrations remaining at a transport distance of roughly 300 feet. That is the average state "setback" distance in the United States between a fracking well and a drinking water well, said CU-Boulder Professor Joseph Ryan, the principal investigator on the study.
In the fracking process, a mixture of water, sand and various chemicals is pumped into wells at high pressure to create fissures in subterranean shale layers to release natural gas and oil. Oil and gas companies use a wide variety of chemicals to increase viscosity, inhibit equipment corrosion and reduce friction, among other things.To read more or comment...
From Alpha Natural Resources on Wednesday:
BRISTOL, Va., July 1, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Alpha Natural Resources, Inc. (NYSE: ANR) announced today that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Pennsylvania Services Corporation (PSC), has acquired the 50% interest in its natural gas exploration and production joint venture, Pennsylvania Land Resources Holding Company, LLC (PLR), owned by EDF Trading Resources, LLC (EDFTR). The $126 million transaction, which makes PSC the sole owner and operator of the venture, allows Alpha to expand and control a highly economic natural gas development program composed of over 25,000 net acres and associated infrastructure in the Marcellus Shale.
EDFTR and PSC initially formed the PLR joint venture in May 2013 to exploit a large, concentrated Marcellus Shale gas resource in Greene County, Pennsylvania. The concentrated acreage position is considered to be in the "core of the core" of the Marcellus Shale, one of the most profitable natural gas plays in the United States, and located adjacent to some of the most productive wells in the basin to date. PLR's large, contiguous acreage position will allow efficient development of the resource with long laterals, maximizing both well productivity and returns. Significant existing pipeline capacity located adjacent to or crossing PLR's leased acreage also provides strong transportation optionality.
Brian Sullivan, Alpha's Executive Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer, stated, "We expect drilling on the first pad to begin in the next 30 days, with an estimated 4 wells completed by the first quarter of next year." PLR's concentrated position when it entered into the joint venture in May 2013 was 12,000 net acres, which has since more than doubled. Additionally, two well pads have been constructed with a total of 14 permitted wells. "Our current leasehold position gives us an immediate drilling inventory of more than 50 locations," Sullivan added.To read more or comment...

Press release from PR Newswire
Fortuna Reports High-Grade Gold and Silver Values at Tlacolula, Mexico
Tuesday, July 03, 2012
Fortuna Reports High-Grade Gold and Silver Values at Tlacolula, Mexico07:00 EDT Tuesday, July 03, 2012 VANCOUVER, July 3, 2012 /PRNewswire/ - Fortuna Silver Mines Inc. (NYSE: FSM) (TSX: FVI) (BVL: FVI) (Frankfurt: F4S.F) is pleased to provide an update of Brownfields exploration results at the San Jose Mine in Oaxaca, Mexico and the Caylloma Mine in Arequipa, Peru. Two diamond drill rigs are currently operating at the San Jose Mine and four diamond drill rigs are operating in the Caylloma District. In addition, generative activities have identified significant untested epithermal systems in the Tlacolula area in Oaxaca and in the Cerro Vilafro area at Caylloma. Dr. Thomas Vehrs, Vice President of Exploration, commented: "The discovery of high-grade gold and silver mineralization at the Tlacolula Project in Mexico is a significant benchmark in our Brownfields exploration program. We are aggressively advancing the project and look forward to the initiation of drill testing of the Tlacolula vein system in mid-July." San Jose Mine Brownfields Exploration, Oaxaca, Mexico Tlacolula Vein System Surface mapping and sampling has identified a large and untested low sulfidation epithermal vein system in the Tlacolula area of central Oaxaca. Fortuna has an option to acquire a 60% interest in the Tlacolula Property from Radius Gold Inc. by making certain cash payments and issuance of shares in the capital stock of Fortuna, and by completing expenditures totaling US$2 million on the property (see Fortuna news release dated Sept. 23, 2009). Highlights of the surface channel sample results include the following mineralized intervals: CH 136366: 6.30 m averaging 19.34 g/t Au and 986 g/t Ag (open) CH 135709: 9.60 m averaging 0.13 g/t Au and 295 g/t Ag (open) CH 138105: 3.30 m averaging 0.07 g/t Au and 234 g/t Ag CH 135862: 1.00 m averaging 4.28 g/t Au and 367 g/t Ag CH 135820: 1.50 m averaging 0.52 g/t Au and 561 g/t Ag CH 138118: 9.00 m averaging 0.22 g/t Au and 83 g/t Ag (open) The channel samples are generally oriented sub-perpendicular to the strike of the vein systems and are believed to approximate true widths of the mineralized structures. For several of the channels, the mineralized intervals are minimum thicknesses as the channels start and/or end in mineralization (indicated as 'open' in above highlights). Two main veins totaling approximately 1,700 meters in strike length have been identified in the project area to-date with on-going exploration focused on the discovery of further extensions of the veins (click to view Tlacolula Project Channel Sample Results). Drill testing of the Tlacolula mineralized vein system is scheduled to start in mid-July. Bonanza Vein System Exploration drilling was initiated in late May on the southeastern extension of the Bonanza vein system at the San Jose Mine. The drilling is following-up on results of late 2011 exploration drilling which confirmed that the Bonanza vein system remains open along strike to the southeast. Fortuna's San Jose Brownfields exploration program for 2012 includes 15,000 meters of diamond drilling in the San Jose mine area and adjoining 58,200 hectare concession land package. Caylloma Mine Brownfields Exploration, Arequipa, Peru The Brownfields exploration program at Caylloma includes 24,000 meters of diamond drilling to test high priority silver-rich targets throughout the district. Drilling is currently being carried out on the Don Luis and San Pedro vein systems. Additionally, district-scale and detailed mapping and sampling are being carried out to identify and evaluate new targets in the 11,700 ha land package at Caylloma. Animas/Nancy Vein System As of late June, Fortuna has completed ten additional exploration drill holes in the Animas vein at Caylloma. Four of the drill holes (prefix 'ANIM') have tested the down-dip extension of the Animas mineralized structure below the 12th level, currently the deepest working level of the mine. The remaining six drill holes tested the northeastern extension of the Animas structure and nearby Nancy Vein. Approximately 90% of current production at Caylloma is sourced from the Animas vein system. Highlights of the drilling include: ANIM021512 4.65 m avg. 121 g/t Ag, 6.35 % Pb and 5.37 % Zn ANIM022012 5.05 m avg. 106 g/t Ag, 6.90 % Pb and 7.54 % Zn ANIS022412 6.75 m avg. 78 g/t Ag, 3.20 % Pb and 3.68 % Zn NANS002012 9.55 m avg. 91 g/t Ag, 5.30 % Pb and 7.62 % Zn NANS002112 5.20 m avg. 38 g/t Ag, 2.06 % Pb and 5.21 % Zn Widths reported are drill hole widths with the drill holes generally oriented sub-perpendicular to the strike and inclination of the vein. True widths are estimated at 80 to 100% of the drill hole widths in general. Assay results from the drill program are summarized below with length-weighted assay averages reported for the principal mineralized intervals (click to view a drill hole location map and longitudinal sections for the Animas Vein system).

"We are also encouraged by the mineralized intercepts encountered in the Animas NE and Nancy areas. The drilling results from this area will be included in the 2012 Caylloma resource update and will allow for the development of an initial mine plan for the Animas NE and Nancy areas." Cerro Vilafro Detailed surface mapping and channel sampling in the Cerro Vilafro area, located adjacent to the Caylloma plant site, has identified strong silver and gold values associated with a NE-SW trending vein swarm (click to view Cerro Vilafro). The mineralization is hosted by Cretaceous quartzites and is currently being evaluated as a potential bulk-minable, open-pit target. While initial sampling has reported high-grade gold and silver values over narrow widths, sampling is currently underway to evaluate the lower grade, quartz veinlet-controlled mineralization in the wallrocks between the main mineralized structures. Highlights of the surface channel sample results include the following mineralized intervals: CH 503715 0.40 m averaging 3.23 g/t Au and 827 g/t Ag CH 503708 0.40 m averaging 2.14 g/t Au and 2,440 g/t Ag CH 503716 0.95 m averaging 0.83 g/t Au and 459 g/t Ag CH 503726 0.25 m averaging 0.57 g/t Au and 791 g/t Ag CH 503615 0.60 m averaging 0.41 g/t Au and 661 g/t Ag Initial drill testing of the Cerro Vilafro target is planned for early fourth quarter of 2012. Quality Assurance & Quality Control Following detailed geological and geotechnical logging, drill core samples are split on-site by diamond sawing. One half of the core is submitted to the ALS Chemex Laboratory in Lima Peru or Guadalajara, Mexico. The remaining half core is retained on-site for verification and reference purposes.

2013 Marston Lecture: "Reading the Persian Empire"February 23, 2013
In Dr. Owen Ewald's 2013 C. May Marston Lecture In Classics, "Reading the Persian Empire", Persian realities and representations in ancient and modern literature are explored. Although Persia was one of the largest empires in human history before its conquest by Alexander the Great, it remains an enigma. Since few Persian documents have survived, we see Persia mostly through the eyes of others, especially its Greek subjects. Modern novels such as Stephen Pressfield's Gates of Fire and Marjane Satrapi's Persepolis have also taken up the challenge of depicting ancient Persia. Professor Ewald juxtaposes modern and classic literature to bring to life this neglected classical civilization.

Jury finds in favor of woman who says Oklahoma County jail detention officers assaulted her nearly 10 years ago
Timmons said the officers slammed McKinney's head against a concrete wall and then threw her to the ground and kicked her. An unidentified officer, the attorney alleged, rubbed McKinney's genitals as she attempted to change out of a dress into orange coveralls.
McKinney, according to court papers, was placed in a holding cell and was taunted by officers. They ignored her requests for medical aid and made her crawl from her cell to a holding room on her hands and knees, the attorney said during the weeklong trial.
Timmons could not be reached for comment Monday.
Attorneys for Whetsel and the board denied the allegations in court, telling jurors "nothing happened" on the night in question.
McKinney, the attorneys said, was "obstinate," "uncooperative" and "verbally combative," and "right where she belonged" because she broke the law.
They accused McKinney of fabricating the incident.

Lions to live on
Despite losing the series, Stuart Barnes believes that the Lions have enhanced their reputation.
Last Updated: 30/06/09 1:07pm
The Lions have now lost seven straight matches against the Tri Nations. It is as bad a run of losses as the combined might of Britain and Ireland has ever suffered yet in defeat the side savaged any talk of a dying concept (excuse me if I do not use that soulless 21st century corporate speak 'soul') with a performance to live alongside many of the renowned victories of yesteryear.
Yes, South Africa won the game with a magnificent strike from Morne Steyn, but the visitors emerged as the heroes of the hour. The Lions had the superior fifteen but the Springboks an infinitely more impacting bench. In the centre of one of the most epic tests for years it was the strength of squad that pulled the Springboks through.
Heinrich Brussow, (destined for a lengthy run in the side after the Schalk Burger gouging incident), Jaque Fourie and Steyn all produced telling performances to lift the home side while the Lions - with the feisty exception of Andrew Sheridan lost vast amounts of power as the starting line up were reduced to rubble, one after the other.
Cementing their place in history
The loss of the Welsh props was immense. Adam Jones was taken out by an increasingly desperate Bakkies Botha who saw the balance of power swing the Lions way after Jones took the easy target for the Beast away and turned him into a far from tame but certainly controllable character.
The loss of scrum advantage was huge the loss of the centres greater still. The sight of Brian O'Driscoll targeting the Springboks big men bordered on the illegal at times but it was never less than inspiring. In defeat he has sealed the mantle of greatness. Here was a reminder that the power of a warrior need not be measured in height.
If his reputation is sealed his partner in the midfield, Jamie Roberts, cemented his as one of the most exciting young talents in the world. Wales has a diamond that will cut many defences to pieces in the years to come.
Defending the scapegoats
But what about the reputation of those Lions who did not excel on the day? Ronan O'Gara has come in for a huge amount of vitriol and must wonder if all he has achieved counts for anything after a missed tackle for the Fourie try and the penalty conceded in the last seconds of the game. The Munster man will be devastated enough without any one else needing to remind him of the repercussions but probably is man enough not to seek excuses.
There is one and a bloody big one and that is the fact that he was knocked halfway to Mozambique attempting to tackle the runaway bull, Pierre Spies. He was being treated on the floor in the build up to the try and pulled himself groggily to his feet when his body was screaming to stay down. Now he will wish he hadn't made the effort. No he does not deserve the abuse anymore than Phil Vickery did the week before. These are both fine players whose reputations should not be damaged any more than Ian McGeechan's by the events of the past fortnight, for it was the legendary Lions coach who got the front row selection wrong for the first test (I am not going to criticise h ere because that would be nothing but smart arsed hindsight) and it he who opted for O'Gara over Hook.
Mistakes happen and the repercussions run through the entire camp. In the end it was not so much a single individual that cost the Lions but an opposition with more power in depth and an iron will to win. The Springboks have earned their series win but the Lions legend was enhanced, not diminished in defeat. It was a privilege to be in Pretoria, albeit a sad one from the Lions perspective, on Saturday.

Seeing Red
Stuart, I would welcome your views on whether you believe officials are too concerned about ruining a match to make a tough decision in the first few minutes which could affect the outcome of a match. Specifically, take at the Burger key gouging decision in the game this weekend. If the touch judge had recommended a red card the outcome of the match would probably have been different. Perhaps the outcome of the series would have been different too. A similar situation occurred in the first NZ v Lions test matches with the well documented "spear tackle". On that occasion it could have been 13 v 15 players for almost 80 mins which could have changed the outcome of that game. Officials are able to take the touch decisions to send off players during a match but appear too weak to do so=2 0at the start. I appreciate the public want to see a proper contest, but not to the detriment of encouraging foul play due to weak officiating.
Charlie Mayer
STUART REPLIES: Charlie, I agree with your sentiment and if the touch judge did have a clear view and was absolutely certain that he saw a gouge then you are 100% on the money. However you and I have the benefit of television replays which the officials do not. It makes you wonder whether a special referee with televisual access should be in place - as with the TMO - to clarify the level of misdemeanour.
Dummy tackles
Stuart, In commentary you accepted the 'crossing' penalties against the Lions without question. To me in neither case, this and last week. were the Springbok defenders obstructed by the dummy runner, the defenders actually deliberately tackled the dummy runner, as if it was a policy, in order to milk the penalty. For this week's Springbok try, the dummy runner did as much obstructing, its just that the Lions defender did not tackle him. Watch them all again and comment please, I believe it was policy to tackle the dummy runner.
Eifion Jones, Kettering
STUART REPLIES: I will watch again Eifion and I will tell you that Brian O'Driscoll talked about the chances that went in the first Test and the 'dummy runner try' and stated it certainly was a penalty. It is not just me you disagree with but O'Driscoll but I'll have a look, maybe Brian was wrong too.
Penalising the scrum
Hi Stuart, You've suggest before that uncontested scrums need sorting. Is it not time to just penalise the side which cannot contest scrums points? I actually do not see what else can be done. I think somewhere between 7 and 10 points personally.
Jonathan da Silva
STUART REPLIES: Jonathon, A bit draconian if the side has lost their props to injury. An eighth man, a specialist prop for the emergency is an option as is the case of both props being injured means a team must play with fourteen men and not have a useful flanker to add to the side with the weakened scrums powers around the field. That would make a team think again; something similar is happening in France and the case of uncontested scrums has plummeted.
Close to the edge
Stuart, I was rather alarmed to hear your views on Brian O'Driscoll's dangerous tackle on Danie Roussow. While certainly nothing as bad as what Burger did, it was still dangerous and illegal and in my opinion that sort of play should never be applauded. Can you just clear up what you were trying to say for me please?
Simon Murray, Leicester
STUART REPLIES: Simon, It was illegal and should not be applauded but rugby will always be played on the border line and in certain cases whilst not endorsing the act, the commitment cannot help but be admired and that is pretty much what I was doing Saturday, expressing my awestruck admiration for the centres will to win, mostly legal if occasionally otherwise. Had you been in Pretoria and been enthralled by the atmosphere you would know what I mean.
Best wishes to you all, it has been a long old season and this is my last column until the season starts in September. Thank you as ever for your interest and love of the game whether we agree or not it's grand that we care enough to debate the issues of the day,
One more test and I am off on my hols with a few books and bottles of wine,

Bien Ubicado, en una zona central cerca del metro. Limpio. Wifi muy bien.
Lo malo es, que si bien las fotos son reales, hay un gran problema con el baño. Este es un pequeño espacio que mezcla el WC con la ducha, pero lo peor es que hay solo 1 lavaplatos que es el mismo lugar donde te lavas las manos después de ir al baño por lo que la higiene se dificulta.
Tiene un pequeño refrigerador, cocinilla eléctrica vieja y lenta.
Agos was very easy to work with for booking a room. An employee from my company was staying at the apartment and said many good things about the stay. I would book with Agos again.
The apartment was as described and ideal for short stays. The neighbourhood is fantastic, Basilica of Santa Maria del Mar at the end of the street, walking distance to the Marina (5 mins), Barceloneta/ beach (15 mins) and Las Ramblas (10 mins).
The studio is on the small size but great value considering proximity to city. The shower and toilet is a tight squeeze but workable. All in all I had a great time in Barcelona and the apartment was all I required.
The flat was as described. Enjoyed my stay. An ancient building on a relatively quite side street, even with the crowd at the spot across the street. It's all good. I really enjoyed it. :)
I was renting this apartment for a month and loved every day of staying! The best thing about the studio is the neighbourhood - El Born. A lot of cafes, restaurants, beautiful Santa Maria del Mar is right at your door. There are also grocery stores and supermarkets near the place. 5-10 minutes walking to the sea. The studio is not a quite big, but it was an ideal for me even for the period of one month. Every weekend my boyfriend visited me, so it also works for two people. The place might be a bit noisy, but it was ok for me, even though I studied and woke up around 8 am. The shower+toilet is not the most comfortable thing on earth and you need to get used to it, but it's possible :))
Hosts are very nice and helpful. Didn't have any problems during chek-in, check-out and the whole stay. Thank you, guys!
I recommend this place and wish to come back there again!
Cómodo apartamento ubicado en el mejor lugar de Barcelona. Anfitriones muy amables.
The room is tiny and the shower is combined with a toilet - constructed right above it in 1 square meter spot with a door to the room which is not closing. So showering is not comfortable at all and sharing a room with somebody is quite confusing experience. There were construction works, when we stayed, so was very noisy. But the location was very good and host took care of us on arrival. So I would say this is an option for a single traveler, who wants budget accommodation with central location.
This host has 774 reviews for other properties.View Other Reviews

Brennan Linsley, Associated Press
NEW CASTLE, Colo. — Four in 10 new oil and gas wells near national forests and fragile watersheds or otherwise identified as higher pollution risks escape federal inspection, unchecked by an agency struggling to keep pace with America's drilling boom, according to an Associated Press review that shows wide state-by-state disparities in safety checks.
Roughly half or more of wells on federal and Indian lands weren't checked in Colorado, Utah and Wyoming, despite potential harm that has led to efforts in some communities to ban new drilling.
In New Castle, a tiny Colorado River valley community, homeowners expressed chagrin at the large number of uninspected wells, many on federal land, that dot the steep hillsides and rocky landscape. Like elsewhere in the West, water is a precious commodity in this Colorado town, and some residents worry about the potential health hazards of any leaks from wells and drilling.
"Nobody wants to live by an oil rig. We surely didn't want to," said Joann Jaramillo, 54.
About 250 yards up the hill from Jaramillo's home, on land that was a dormant gravel pit when she bought the house eight years ago, is an active drilling operation that operates every day from 7 a.m. until sometimes 10:30 p.m. Jaramillo said the drilling began about three years ago.
Even if the wells were inspected, she questioned whether that would ensure their safety. She said many view the oil and gas industry as self-policing and nontransparent.
"Who are they going to report to?" she asked.
Government data obtained by the AP point to the Bureau of Land Management as so overwhelmed by a boom in a new drilling technique known as hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, that it has been unable to keep up with inspections of some of the highest priority wells. That's an agency designation based on a greater need to protect against possible water contamination and other environmental and safety issues.
Factors also include whether the well is near a high-pressure formation or whether the drill operator lacks a clear track record of service.
"No one would have predicted the incredible boom of drilling on federal lands, and the number of wells we've been asked to process," said the BLM's deputy director, Linda Lance. Since fracking reached a height in 2009, about 90 percent of new wells on federal land are drilled by the process, which involves pumping huge volumes of water, sand and chemicals underground.
"The current rate of inspections is simply not acceptable to us," she said.
The agency oversees 100,000 oil and gas wells on public lands, 3,486 of which received the high priority designation.
According to BLM records for fiscal years 2009 to 2012, 1,400 of those high priority wells, spread across 13 states, were not federally inspected. Wyoming had the most, 632, or 45 percent. South Dakota had 1 out of 2 wells uninspected, and Pennsylvania had 1 out of 6.
All the higher risk wells were inspected in six states — Alabama, Michigan, Mississippi, New York, Ohio and Texas.
Many more wells are located on private lands, where state officials take the lead in ensuring they comply with environmental laws, with mixed results. Nationwide, there were nearly 500,000 producing gas wells in 2012, according to Energy Information Administration data. More than 1,800 new wells were being drilled in March alone.
Dennis Willis, a former BLM field officer in Price, Utah, says he routinely provided input on oil leasing and drilling decisions on federal land before his retirement in 2009. He described a situation of chronic underfunding dating to at least the early 2000s, when BLM management made clear that issuing new permits would be a priority over other tasks, according to a 2002 memorandum from supervisors in Utah to field officers. At the time, fracking was becoming more widely used.

NEW YORK — Even now, when every Washington Capitals game is televised, players admitted playing in this spotlight was a big deal: On national television, against the Eastern Conference-leading New York Rangers, at Madison Square Garden.
"There's usually a couple more texts if you mess up, that's for sure," defenseman Dennis Wideman quipped.
Sunday was a big-time game for the Caps, but it didn't look like it. Left wing Alex Ovechkin struggled to get shots on net, No. 1 goaltender Tomas Vokoun wasn't in net and the energy level seemed inconsistent. A third-period push made things interesting, but ultimately the 3-2 loss Sunday kept Washington on the outside of the playoff picture.
"We fought hard, but we made some stupid mistakes," center Mathieu Perreault said. "We battled hard, but we've got to find ways to win games because we're getting closer to the end, and we've got to get points so we get into the playoffs."
It was another chance for the Capitals to make a statement, not even a week after destroying the Florida Panthers 4-0 at home, but they couldn't recapture that form in New York, falling to 9-15-3 away from Verizon Center. With Sunday afternoons on NBC being the NHL's prime time, this also was a high-profile opportunity for the Caps to show they could be a tough team to beat in the playoffs.
Instead, they looked too much like a team that could remain on the bubble, bouncing between the third seed (first in the Southeast Division) and out of the picture. They surrendered too many odd-man rushes, hanging surprise starting goaltender Michal Neuvirth out to dry, and even giving up a short-handed goal in the third period to Brandon Prust.
"The shorthanded one is the critical goal," Capitals coach Dale Hunter said. "You want to always say critical goal of the game — that was the big one where you give up a shorty and it ended up being the game-winner."
It was an odd afternoon for the Capitals,, who were outshot 28-26. Veteran right wing Mike Knuble was a healthy scratch for a second straight game, and Neuvirth got the nod despite Vokoun — the undisputed starter in goal — leading the team onto the ice for pregame warmups.
It was a late change as Vokoun tried to play through the flu but was not healthy enough to start. Neuvirth struggled early to adjust but gave Washington a chance to win.
"I was kind of ready to play, but he took the warmup as the starting goalie, so I didn't really get to warm up. But it is what it is, and as the backup you've got to be ready all the time," Neuvirth said. "It's tough, especially early game and no pregame skate. I think I got better as the game went on."
But the offense couldn't bail him out.
Ovechkin, who thrives on attention, didn't take a shot on goal in the first period and was a nonfactor for most of the afternoon. But he didn't think there was a struggle with putting pucks on net, more the lack of opportunities to do so.
"I think in the first period we don't have that many chances. We maybe control the puck very well, but we don't get chances to shoot," the captain said. "You can see when we play in the third period, when we cycle the puck, and the one guy was in front of the net, we can find the rebound. When we start using our 'D,' it was working."
That didn't happen until it was too late. And on the other side, Rangers captain Ryan Callahan was a force, scoring and blocking shots — more or less doing everything his team counts on him to do. Couple that with typical brilliance from goalie Henrik Lundqvist, and the Capitals remained in ninth place in the conference, unable to push the Panthers for first in the Southeast.
And while forward Jason Chimera disagreed with the notion that Washington struggled for much of the game, Perreault pointed out that even a strong final five minutes doesn't count for much.
"Every point is important at this stage," he said. "We have to find a way to win games, because at the end of the day, they're two points we need no matter how good we play or not. We've got to find ways to get points."

Target Canada brings Jason Wu collection to Toronto – for one day
Target Canada broadens buzz by bringing Jason Wu collection to Toronto for one day only – February 23. The pop-up store is one of many events Target will host across Canada before its official 2013 retail launch.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
Target Canada is bringing its hotly prized limited edition Jason Wu collection to Toronto – for a single day – on Feb. 23.
Only 2,500 pieces will be available for sale to the public during a six-hour period – or however long quantities last – at a temporary store in Toronto's fashion district.
The U.S.-based retailer, which is still a year away from opening its first permanent Canadian store, said the "pop-up" store is intended to help build excitement about the Target brand.
"The buzz surrounding Jason's line for Target has been incredible, and, given his ties to Canada, we thought this collection would serve as a great introduction to Target's take on affordable design," said John Morioka, senior vice president of merchandising, Target Canada.
The mass merchant is known for its high style at low prices and its limited time collaborations with high-profile designers such as Wu.
The pieces, which include dresses, skirts and scarves, will be priced between $10 and $45, Target said.
At a similar event in New York on Feb. 5, Wu's collection sold out within hours.
"Working with Target has allowed me to reach a much broader audience and I'm so excited that my Canadian fans will have a chance to experience this collection for the first time," Jason Wu, who grew up in Vancouver, said in a statement. "My collaboration with Target reflects my classic design aesthetic and is filled with feminine pieces that will brighten up any woman's wardrobe."
Wu, now based in New York City, shot to fame in 2009 when Michelle Obama wore a gown by the then 26-year-old designer to the presidential inauguration. His designs, carried in high-end fashion department stores, including The Bay, normally sell for up to $1,500 apiece.
The retailer has previously partnered with Isaac Mizrahi and Missoni. Online demand for last September's limited edition Missoni collection was so great that Target's website temporarily crashed.
Target began using pop-up stores in 2002 to create buzz about its brand. The first was held on a boat at Chelsea Pier in Manhattan
Target opened its first international pop-up store in Paris in 2007 as part of Fashion Week.
Customers of the Canadian pop-up will be permitted to buy only 3 items apiece to ensure the most people get access to the brand.
The retailer plans to hold a variety of events across the country over the next year.
The Toronto store will be at 363 King St. W. All proceeds from the Jason Wu sale will be donated to the United Way of Toronto.

Hybrid Clouds Are the New IT Ecosystem: Here's Why Storage Systems Must Adapt
Sponsored by NetApp - Enterprise storage systems have evolved through four distinct stages. First, there were monolithic storage arrays. These gave way to modular SAN/NAS systems and distributed storage networks. Next, advanced software techniques led to storage virtualization, with storage volumes abstracted from the underlying physical devices. Finally, in the current era, cloud storage services have emerged that combine virtualization with unprecedented economies of scale.

Congrats are in order for former Real Housewives of Miami stars Lenny and Lisa Hochstein! They're going to be first time parents!
Lisa shared the happy news that they're expecting a baby via surrogate and he/she is due around August 1st.
Are you needing a Real Housewives of Miami fix? How about a Romain Zago fix? We've got both for you today! Joanna Krupa brought her husband out of hiding this week – for a good cause!
Joanna, ever the animal advocate, hosted a fundraiser, Paws for Prayers, this past Saturday on Miami Beach. Joanna's arm candy hubby Romain Zago and her fellow former Miami co-star Karent Sierra (along with her new rescue puppy, Gucci) attended to show their support.
The event was a huge success. Money was raised for Angels for Animals Rescue and the 2nd Annual BodhiFest Miami, and all dogs up for adoption were given loving homes.
Check out the pics below!
Joanna Krupa is responding to Brandi Glanville's latest nasty remarks and isn't holding back on her hatred of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star.
Last week after an appearance on Watch What Happens Live, Brandi did a little Q&A with Andy. Joanna Krupa was one of the first subjects brought up. It went a little like this: Brandi asked him, "When was the last time you spoke to Joanna Krupa?" Andy replied that it was at the Real Housewives of Miami reunion. Brandi sniped, "Did you get food poisoning from the bad sushi that night?" Referring to the fishy vagina debacle from over a year ago. Brandi added, "She's stunning. You can't help the odor situation."
Everyone is always trying to figure out which Real Housewives earn the most! Who is bringing home the most bacon per franchise – and the biggest question: who is the highest earner of them all? We've heard a lot of varying reports, but here comes another one speculating about the Housewives salaries.
Desperate to restore Real Housewives Of New York, Bravo tried to attract former supermodels and celebrity chefs to the franchise, but had to settle for Bethenny Frankel instead. In exchange, the network is rumored to have agreed to pay her $1 million + bonuses depending on the 7th season's success.
Adriana de Moura has been missing from our TV screens since Real Housewives Of Miami was canceled, but that doesn't mean she hasn't been busy filming. Adriana announced that she'll begin shooting a new show called "Divorce Rehab."
Adriana recently tweeted that she and Frederic Marq are developing a new show called Divorce Rehab. Adriana told Logo TV that RHOM is "not shooting right now," but she is filming something else! "I'm shooting a pilot for a new show and I have a movie that's coming out next year."
On her Facebook and website Adriana announced casting for the new show, which will film in Miami, is apparently a makeover show for divorced women and began filming this month. "Looking for divorced women that would like to be a part of my new TV Show called Divorce Rehab!" Adriana announced.
Since there doesn't seem to be any plans for a new season of The Real Housewives of Miami anytime soon, we can probably assume that the Bravo cameras weren't present this weekend for Lea Black's big event: the Blacks' Annual Gala.
To kick off the day, Lea was given the key to the city of Miami Beach by the mayor and the day (October 25th) was named for her! Lea Tweeted, "Oct 25 just named Lea Black day in city of #MiamiBeach by mayor @MayorLevine what a surprise!" This year Lea went big for the 20th anniversary of the event and managed to reel in Aretha Franklin for the charity fundraiser's headlining entertainment!
Also in attendance for the party: her former co-stars Lisa Hochstein and Karent Sierra as well as others like Elaine Lancaster, Courtney Love, Flo Rida and more. Check out the pics below!
Ah the power of one tweet… on Sunday, Lisa Hochstein shared a picture of herself with Marysol Patton, Alexia Echevarria, and Adriana de Moura at a party. Then all hell broke loose after conflicting reports surrounding the current status of Real Housewives of Miami took the internet by storm.
From that single picture, LALATE exclusively reported the party was filmed and Real Housewives of Miami will return in the spring. This news spread around social media within mere seconds. Like a bad rash. Then Real Mr. Housewife conveniently busted out "a Bravo insider" to discredit LALATE's report.
Plastic surgeon to the stars and star of the Real Housewives of Miami star, Leonard Hochstein has been accused of some shady behavior from two former employees in a new lawsuit.
You better watch out Lisa Hochstein, those Botox treatments you have been getting from your hubby may have gotten him into some hot water.

A question I often ask job and internship seekers who don't know where to start is "Who are the players in this field?" Of course by now, I am not surprised by the blank stares reflected on their faces, but I keep asking the question because I think it is an important one. We, as products of marketing dollars put to good use, can typically recognize and relate to the large corporations, organizations, and industries seen in television, radio, web, and print advertisements, but we may not be so familiar with mid-size or smaller companies in our fields of interest—even if they are in our neighborhood.
To combat this, I encourage students to get to know who else is working in this industry and share with them these job searching strategies:
- utilize Chamber of Commerce Membership Directories;
- find and join Professional Associations;
- explore companies who do contract work with larger corporations;
- and dust off those trusty Yellow Pages!
To give you a little more insight, let's walk through these processes and see what we can find.

Weeks of July 27 and August 3 (two-week program)
9:00am to 2:00pm
Support your child's creativity through this two-week summer offering! Children will explore the magical nature of wool, our gift from the sheep, as they design and felt their very own wool slippers. Days will be spent washing and carding wool, collecting flowers and cutting vegetables to create dye baths, and observing the transformation of the fibers into a beautiful rainbow of natural hues. Each child will design and fashion an individual pair of felted wool slippers, and by the end of the two weeks everyone will have their own pair, hand-made to fit their own feet.
In addition, there will be ample time for circle, story, and puppet plays, as well as walks along our many acres of beautiful wooded trails and romps through the sprinkler in the play yard.
Children will enjoy healthy organic snacks made at Green Meadow and bring a picnic lunch from home each day.
This offering is led by Early Childhood Educator Nell Rowland and takes place at the Green Meadow Waldorf School Kindergarten Building. For more information or to register, please email Mrs. Rowland at firstname.lastname@example.com. $750 for two-week program, includes snacks and all materials.
Above photos by GMWS parent Dyana Van Campen.
Green Meadow Waldorf School does not supplement our curriculum with movement: our curriculum IS movement. Starting with the youngest children in the Early Childhood section, our pedagogical approach recognizes that healthy, self-initiated movement is the best foundation for physical and cognitive development at every age. The Waldorf School's curriculum and method of teaching recognizes that nimble, imaginative, full-body movement in the youngest child becomes nimble dexterity in thought after puberty, and that the capacities of free and responsible action in young adulthood are developed through an artistic, holistic education based on movement.
Waldorf Schools throughout the world are grounded in a commitment to movement and are being recognized as leaders in cutting-edge learning techniques, though Waldorf Schools have been working this way since their founding in 1919.
Every subject in the Waldorf School develops foundational skills through movement. A subject unique to Waldorf Schools is eurythmy, a movement art that integrates language, music, geometry, and spatial awareness in lively weekly classes from Early Childhood through High School. Artistically, students learn to use their whole body to listen, speak, sing, perceive, and think. In First Grade, students learn eurythmy movement through the rich language of fairy tales, Sixth Graders learn by moving complex geometric forms collaboratively with classmates, and High School students learn to perceive and express the inner nature of poetry, music, and themes from the curriculum through expressive choreography and gesture. Being in touch with the expressive capacities of the body is to be in touch with a way of intuitive understanding. As students' capacities for higher cognition develop through thinking, eurythmy supports students healthy thinking through highly conscious movement.
