Good airsoft grenade for milsims :P
Quality Price Valueon 5/15/15
The Thunder Bs have made an immediate impact on the field and of course the CQB arena. Depending on the rules of the field you play at, Thunder Bs may be counted as a grenade kill within a certain diameter of where it lands/explodes, or it may just be used as what it is; a distraction device. Either way, it is an excellent tool for distracting a sniper, or disrupting the movement of a superior force.

Is it sharper than a 5 pfennig? I heard it was soft in the corners, but this appears to have no corners.
I always liked the Nickels and thought they were more professional than those Cents.
Will it cover an elephant? The US mint specifies it will cover a rhinoceros, but they are very conservative and I understand it is usable for much larger.

Ethnic costumes, dancing, and food are all highlights, and of course Lesce (Zlatorog) beer. We found out that this little one day festival is held in honor of the cows coming down from the high grounds for the winter. It is a cute little local festival, don't expect an Oktoberfest like party, but it is fun in its own way! check out my travelogue for more info...

I put on two coats, the second after a few minutes of not feeling any warmth on my legs pre-ride, and never felt any warming sensation during my chilly morning ride. This was with the "hottest" version of this JT brand.

All the way from Austrailia this instrument is made from small trees growing in the everglades. Termites hollow them out and they are cut by the people who craft them. A special wax is adhered to the mouth piece and playing one of them requires alot of breath control.

MIDLAND (April 24, 2014) Charmelle Henry, 45, of Carrollton, was in the Midland County Jail Thursday charged with two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon after a corn dog dispute turned violent.
Her bond was set at $100,000.
The charges stem from an incident on Saturday in Midland in which a woman flashed a knife and threatening store workers after becoming upset over a 75-cent corn dog because it had been microwaved.
The woman demanded a second uncooked corn dog and threatened the lives of store workers as they tried to serve her, police said.

'Cavnormous' tree lights up spirit of the holidays for First Team families
December 18, 2007
By Spc. Jeffrey Ledesma, 1st Cavalry Division Public Affairs
FORT HOOD, Texas - The ground was drizzled with a cold, central-Texas winter rain and the icy air was whispering through the bleachers. Despite the less than ideal weather, family, friends, and people in uniform poured in front of Cooper Field for the 1st Cavalry Division's annual tree lighting ceremony Dec. 14.
It took about three days of setting up to make the festive holiday atmosphere surrounding the division's headquarters building a reality, but for one newly-arrived cavalry troop, Pvt. William Peters of Lynchburg, Va., it was worth the all the work.
"I love the fact that Cav goes big in everything it does. It has a long, proud history of being the best and plus the tree looks beautiful," said the young cannon crewmember.
"It's big and bigger is always better," said Sgt. Shavonne Lewis about the Christmas tree towering over 30 feet tall. "Having the children turn on the lights on the tree is a great way for kids to interact with other kids."
It was barely past 5 o'clock in the evening when the kids were asked to join the rear detachment commander of the First Team, Col. Larry Phelps, on the division's yellow and black patch for a couple of songs. Then it was time to light things up.
Phelps of Greenville, Ala., along with dozens of children pulled the lever lighting up the 'Cavnormous-sized' Christmas tree. Suddenly, a jolly ol' man in a red and white suit showed up, filling the children's eyes with excitement.
Although Lewis' 6-month-old son Cederick, Jr., wasn't able to participate in the lighting this year, the native of Glendora, Calif., said that she made sure to be here so her son could see Santa.
One by one people lined up for a chance to see the jovial Saint Nick. But, while they waited in line there were cookies and cakes to nibble on and time to ponder what to ask Santa for this Christmas. For the Lewis family that was easy.
"We want a walker," she said. Lewis explained that the first six months have gone by so quickly and perhaps her son will be able to light the tree up next year because he loves playing with other kids.
The power generation equipment repairer added that even with the rapid deployment cycle family members are still able to enjoy the holidays with events such as this one.
Peters, a Soldier with the First Team's 2nd Battalion, 82nd Field Artillery Regiment, 3rd Brigade Combat Team said that although this is the first time he's not home for the holidays he's glad he is part of an organization that is big on family.
The self-proclaimed family man said the festivities really emphasis the message that despite the stresses of deployments to Iraq the families back home can still have fun by sharing the holidays with other families.

Barcelona > Poblenou Barcelona
Once dubbed 'the Manchester of Catalonia', Poblenou is famous in Barcelona's history as the city's industrial zone, drawing water from the sea and river Besos and belching fumes into the air above the Mediterranean. This part of Barcelona, outside of the Old Town, really grew in the 19th century as industrial tycoons set up factories on cheap land and workers from the impoverished South of Spain made the pilgrimmage to Catalonia in search of a better life.
As Barcelona's textile industry waned so did the district's fortunes... the vast majority of the factories were abandoned and fell into disrepair and the 'New Village' (as 'Poblenou' means in Catalan) became something of a ghost town - albeit quite a hip ghost town in more recent years, owing to the large number of squatters and artists who saw seized on the disused spaces for housing, street art and raves.
In the early 1990s the winds of change game blowing in preparation for the 1992 Olympic Games, the sporting event that changed the face of Barcelona - and Poblenou in particular. The biggest change for both the city and the district was the ripping up of a train track that ran along the coast, separating Poblenou from the sea, and the creation of a string of beaches from the newly-constructed Olympic Port and Village right up to El Campo de la Bota. Barcelona was suddenly a coastal resort par excellence, and Poblenou the site of prime real estate potential!
Since the developments for the '92 Games, there have been a number of new urban regeneration projects that have - and still are - changing this former-industrial district into a very desirable neighbourhood. The former execution ground of Campo de la Bota was transformed in the Parc del Forum for the Universal Forum of Cultures in 2004, whilst the Diagonal Mar shopping centre and park sprung up alongside a slew of five star hotels... such as the hip Hotel Me. Meanwhile French architect Jean Nouvel was commissioned to create one of Barcelona's most iconic buildings in the Torre Agbar, and soon afterwards drafted up his plans for the Parc Central del Poblenou. The phrase on everyone's lips right now however is @22, the ambitious renovation programme that will see Poblenou changed into a technological hub and office zone, surrounded by luxury flats. Indeed futuristic labs and workspaces are being built as we speak as Barcelona's very own silicon valley slowly takes shape! Nightowls may want to investigate the area come evening, as a number of old factories have been put to better use and now function as bars, pubs and clubs. Sala Razzmatazz being a prime example!
Overall Poblenou is well worth an afternoon of the discerning tourist's time for its charming mix of Modernista blocks and houses, redbrick factories (some decaying, some renovated) and gleaming skyscrapers. At the heart of the 'New Village' is the Rambla de Poblenou, a delightful boulevard as relaxing and serene as La Rambla proper is hectic and overpowering.
Accommodation in Poblenou Barcelona
For hotels in Poblenou head to our Sleep page and search by district. Alternatively you could try contacting a reliable apartment rental agency and ask for a the perfect place by the sea. For attractions check out our Play and Culture sections, for nightlife swing by our Drink section, and if you fancy taking an interactive tour of the Poblenou district we can recommend our amigos at Steel Donkeys bike tours!

Nice article. Poblenou goes unnoticed by most tourists, but it's got a lot to offer. ALso a good place to invest in real estate.

What are your sewing quirks?
21 comments:
- Jenny10:55 a.m.
Good question.ReplyDelete
I've never sewn with other people - well, maybe once at the CAE tailoring course, but that was too long ago.
I know I should iron my pattern pieces but rarely do.
I have a little dish with pins in, but should have a magnet pin cushion like my friend A has.
I move my sewing machine into the lounge and sew while I'm watching TV. Is that weird? I have the ironing board behind me (also in the lounge) so I can swing around and iron as I sew. That could be weird.
I've always tried the sewing on from the minute I sew the first seam. My family always seemed to think that was weird.
If i'm using a tissue pattern I certainly iron it first! Hmmm I sew over pins (the few that I use), I like to have a magnet near by to collect them as they come out. Other than sewing at the speed of a run a way train i'm not sure what is weirdReplyDelete
Hmm, i'm not sure. Maybe we need to sew together and you can tell me if i have any weird quirks ;)ReplyDelete
I don't have a saucer but I do pile up all the threads neatly in a little pile and I do iron the pattern if it needs it, it does make it easier to cut out the fabric. I don't think you're weird at all!ReplyDelete
- Katie7:08 p.m.
I was taught at school to alway iron out patterns!ReplyDelete
I transfer all of my patterns onto cheap trax paper or light weight interfacing so I can keep the originals.
I use my overlocker repair tweezers - super long ones - for tying of loose threads. I now find it impossible to use my fingers to tie knots!
I use ice cream containers for my scraps, and I swear by the magnetic pin holder next to my machine as well as a wrist pin cushion - can't work without it, and, recently I've taken to the thread snips attached to a lanyard around my neck - hey! i always know where they are - I started ironing my paper patterns as well..... it's all good!ReplyDelete
I used a favourite little bowl to put cut threads a bits into until I broke it, now I use a little tin with a lid, so I can just put the lid on when I'm done if its not full. I got the idea from seeing Rachel Ray on Oprah with her bowl on the kitchen counter to save trips to the bin while preparing dinner.ReplyDelete
It's so great to read everyone's "quirks!"ReplyDelete
I can't think of any, but your confession about your thread-end dish made me realize that I simply throw all the threads, scraps, and other trash directly on the floor. No wonder my better half complains about thread snippets ending up all over the rest of the house! Maybe I should try a dish...
oh i'm not sure if i do- but i think the saucer idea is awesome! will be putting one next to me now because i hate finding a loose thread on the floor after i've cleaned up.ReplyDelete
I thought you're supposed to iron patterns! I do. I think it might be a quirk that I have to throw out bent pins. Any slightest bent. The pin still works and shouldn't be thrown out, but I can't stand looking at something that was supposed to be straight that's now bent! Weird.ReplyDelete
Now I'm feeling slack. I don't iron the patterns and my floor is littered with threads. I actually don't smip off as many threads as I should and snip them off over the years whilst I am wearing the clothes.ReplyDelete
Not weird at al... Most people I know iron patterns prior to use and usually have a small paper bag taped to their work bench to slide threads and other sewing rubbish into..ReplyDelete
I switch between the imperial system and the metric system constantly when it comes to sewing. When I'm drafting, sewing seam allowances or measuring things it could be in either centimetres or inches. The silly thing is we are only taught the metric system in school and I don't use the imperial system when it comes to anything else in life.ReplyDelete

Rascal Flatts Were at a 'Crossroads' Before Latest Album
Billboard -- Rascal Flatts recently released a documentary titled: "All Access & Uncovered: The Making of Changed and Beyond." The DVD follows the country superstars through the making of their eighth studio album, "Changed," as well as provides fans with a glimpse of home footage and candid interviews. The documentary, according to frontman Gary LeVox, tackles a variety of uncensored realities and dynamics within the band - some of which the guys were a bit uncertain about releasing to the public.
"We were at a crossroads a few times of do we even want to continue to do Rascal Flatts. Do we want the band to stay together? Do we go here? What do we do? We've had everything happen in our personal lives. Some of that we've never touched on and to capture all of that on this film -- all of it was a little nerve-racking to be real honest," LeVox told Billboard.
Bassist Jay DeMarcus explained that prior to recording the documentary, the trio sat down individually with the film's director to run through a variety of "tough and deep questions" pertaining to the band's history.
DeMarcus added, "I think that the fans will be very intrigued by watching each of us talk about our individual roles within the band," while Joe Don Rooney sees the documentary as a reminder of the longevity of Rascal Flatts.
"We knew from day one that we had something very special and we're lucky to still have each other to keep holding on to that. We've always had a rule where we always put somebody in the band first. It's been tough at times, but we've worked through it and I think that's why it's continued to work."
According to LeVox, watching the documentary really helped both him and his bandmates learn a lot about each other. Check out a clip from Rascal Flatt's "All Access & Uncovered: The Making of Changed and Beyond" below:

Kat Von D has split from her fiancé Deaudmau5.
The 31-year-old tattoo artist announced she had parted ways with the superstar DJ for the second time yesterday evening (06.26.13) because he has allegedly been cheating on her.
She wrote on Twitter: "Man, I'm a fool... Cheating on your loved one is the most hurtful thing one could do. I hate to have to admit, that this relationship is indeed over."
Kat then added, "Onwards and upwards", sharing a photo of a heart inked on her hand along with the words, "Go out into the world with Love".
Her fans were quick to offer support, with one posting, "Don't take him back no matter what. Ur worth more than that", and another incredulously ranting, "But you're so perfect. Why would anyone do that to you?!"
The 'L.A. Ink' star began dating Deadmau5 - real name, Joel Zimmerman - in September 2012. The pair broke up briefly in November amid rumors he had cheated on her, but reunited shortly afterwards, with the Canadian DJ proposing to Kat via Twitter in December.
The couple - who have matching star tattoos under their eyes - were planning an underwater-themed wedding in August inspired by one of their favorite authors, H.P. Lovecraft, which they hoped would be "the furthest thing from traditional."
The ink-mad beauty was previously engaged to Sandra Bullock's ex-husband Jesse James, and publicly accused him of cheating on her with over 19 women after their split.

Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

To help brands grow and connect.
To help them get the right information about their audiences.
To turn information into insight and make insights actionable.
We believe in "jujitsu strategy" (tipping the audience in a direction they're willing to lean), "shiatsu research" (pressing on the knot until it opens up - often with multiple methodologies), and "the tao of facilitation" (finding the way that works for the company's culture).
Robin grew up in an eclectic combination of locations - Nigeria, Washington, DC, and Martha's Vineyard, but mostly Montana. She went east on a scholarship, and after graduating Magna cum Laude from Yale, headed to New York to try her hand as an artist.
There, she found her way into advertising. Soon, a new discipline, Account Planning, captured her imagination and gave her the opportunity to apply her combination of creative and intellectual talents. As an early American in this British-dominated discipline, Robin had the opportunity to work with some of the best talent in the advertising industry.
After a stint at Chiat/Day, Robin joined Creative star Nick Cohen as Co-Chair of start-up Mad Dogs & Englishmen in 1992. Under their leadership, this strategically-driven creative boutique won awards for both creativity and strategic excellence for clients such as AOL MovieFone, YooHoo Chocolate Drink, Blue Moon Beer, The Village Voice, and The Economist. As a "media neutral" agency before it was fashionable, Mad Dogs was a dot-com darling, and grew to over 70 people. After the dot-com meltdown, Robin diversified Mad Dogs' offering by opening Mad Logic, a Planning consultancy, which came to specialize in insights for media companies. Using innovative high-tech and high-touch research techniques, Mad Logic solved challenges for companies like the LATimes.com, Newsweek, Univision, Sirius Satellite Radio, USA Network, SyFy, and Viacom. At Mad Dogs Enterprises, Robin was proud to be able to train many talented planners who still today work in some of the best agencies in the world.
Robin and Nick closed down Mad Dogs Enterprises in 2005. "Thirteen years is about as long as you can expect a good-sized dog to live," Nick said at the time. Robin next started Open Mind Strategy, building on the expertise of Mad Logic in the media arena. Open Mind retained clients like USA, SyFy, and MTV Networks, and helped a host of television channels, print companies, and web-based businesses to do more successful business by better connecting with their audiences. Among other achievements, Robin's team developed the still successful "Characters" positioning that helped USA capture the lead in cable. One of the first research companies to consider consumers as co-creators, Open Mind did over $2 million in sales in its first year, and soon expanded beyond media to experience brands, such as travel destinations and retail brands. During this period, OMS also had the opportunity to team with eatbigfish, helping companies like Cole Haan, eBay, Kodak, and Unilever successfully apply "challenger brand" principles to innovating their businesses.
In 2007, Robin joined kb+p as Managing Partner and Chief Strategic Officer, and OMS became one of kb+p's specialist divisions. Working across all of kb's disciplines, Robin was instrumental in winning business from clients such as Wendy's International, Avon Fragrances, Starz, and Bloomberg, and in developing successful insight-driven strategies for clients such as Panasonic, Kao, Diageo, and Mohegan Sun. Meanwhile, Open Mind helped solve problems for Comedy Central, TVLand, Yahoo!, NBC, and others.
Robin left what is now kbs+p at the end of 2009, and in Fall of 2010 set up Open Mind Strategy as an independent LLC. Recent assignments have included work for Yahoo!, The Food Network, Travel Channel, VNSNY, PBM, USA, several non-profits and a number of advertising agencies.
Robin is a member of the New York Entrepreneurs Organization. She sits on the National Advertising Review Board. She served for over five years on the board of the AAAA's Account Planning Committee, including two years as Co-Chair. She has been a regular teacher of the 4A's "Quantitative Literacy for Planners" course, was an Executive in Residence at the University of Oregon's Advertising Program, and has taught at VCU and the Miami Ad School. She has spoken frequently at research and marketing conferences on strategic development, new media, and teens, has judged numerous award shows, and was named America's "Iron Planner" by the US APG in 2004, a title so far unchallenged.
Andrew Hafitz has been editing films since 1995. Along the way, he's collaborated with some of the leading directors in the New York independent film scene, including Whit Stillman (Damsels in Distress, 2012; The Last Days of Disco, 1998), Lodge Kerrigan (Keane, 2004), and Larry Clark (Ken Park, 2002; Bully, 2001). Two of his films have premiered in competition at Sundance: Braden King's Here (2011), a metaphysical road movie filmed on location in Armenia, and Cruz Angeles's Don't Let Me Drown (2009), shot primarily in Brooklyn. Don't Let Me Drown went on to win audience and jury at awards at many festivals, including Best Film and Best Editing at the Woodstock Film Festival in 2009. Andy's documentary credits include the street basketball movie Soul in the Hole (1997), directed by Danielle Gardner, and a number of David Schisgall films including the feature The Lifestyle: Group Sex in the Suburbs (1999) and the MTV show "True Life: I'm in Iraq," which won the Edward R. Murrow Award for Best Network News Documentary in 2005. A graduate of Yale University with a degree in comparative literature, Andy lives in Manhattan and Willow, NY, with his wife, Robin.
Allison O'Keefe Wright is an expert in consumer culture and media. She has spent her career studying consumers and consulting major brands on strategy and positioning, product development, marketing and communication geared at various demographic groups and the illusive millennial target in particular. Allison has a unique ability to humanize data and insight and she has honed the skill of using her sense of humor to not only drawn truth from consumers, but to inspire her clients and partners…even the most skeptical "creative types"…to delight in new understanding. Allison has received global recognition for her youth expertise and her work has been highlighted by numerous newspapers and magazines including The Economist, Brand Republic and Women's Wear Daily, to name a few. She has been featured on radio programs such as BBC World Service and has appeared in segments on CNN television programs Dolans Unscripted and The Biz.
Allison is Senior Vice President, Managing Director of Research and Strategy at Open Mind Strategy. She is thrilled to have the opportunity to leverage her diverse experience from both agency and "client side" as an effective partner who can approach client business issues and goals with valuable perspective from both sides of the aisle.
On the "client side", Allison was most recently Vice President, Research and Strategic Planning for Capitol Music Group (formerly EMI Music North America) heading up both research and media services for the label. Building from a blank canvas, Allison put Consumer Insight at the heart of the company, establishing her division as a key function across all critical business units and informing the transformation and evolution of the company at large. In this role, she delivered strategic and tactical value for major artists such as Katy Perry, Coldplay, David Guetta, Jennifer Lopez, Norah Jones, and Rod Stewart among many others, as well as for catalog artists like The Beatles, David Bowie, Pink Floyd and Frank Sinatra, to name only a few. Allison put fans at the center of CMG's processes via consumer segmentation, online fan community exploration, brand/partnership analysis and creative and image testing. In addition to her work in North America, she worked in concert with global offices and with industry associations constructing major studies to analyze the music marketplace on a global scale.
Prior to Capitol/EMI, Allison served as Vice President, Strategic Insight and Research at MTV, where she was responsible for consumer insights and strategy for MTV, MTV2, and mtvU, across all screens. Initiatives that Allison spearheaded for MTV included large-scale consumer lifestyle investigations, brand and buzz tracking, pilot testing, and website usability. Her landmark research study "Crossing the Line: Exposing Millennial Digital Abuse" was awarded the Grand Prize in the 2010 CTAM Case Study competition and informed the establishment of MTV's Thin Line pro-social campaign. Among the MTV shows that Allison tested and helped usher into the channel was Jersey Shore, a pivotal turning point in the channels recent history with regard to viewership and cultural relevance.
Allison co-wrote a section of the book "Beyond the Usability Lab: Conducting Large-Scale User Experience Studies", distributed by Morgan Kaufmann Publishers, which detailed the groundbreaking usability research she spearheaded to inform the re-launch and evolution of MTV.com.
In her agency days, Allison was Director and Global Editor for strategic consultancy Henley Centre HeadlightVision. There she authored the book D_Code 5, an investigation of leading edge youth culture and marketing around the world and travelled the globe running innovation workshops for major companies including Coca-Cola and Unilever. Allison also worked as a strategic planner at Publicis, D'Arcy and Young and Rubicam where she contributed to the strategic growth of a diverse range of brands from Heineken/Amstel to Sony to Crest to Campbells, and many more.

Lianna has a background in Film and Spanish language and culture. While working on an independent documentary film in 2005, Lianna realized that her true passion was finding the unique stories of the people featured in the films. She decided to make a change and pursue a career that would allow her to continue to explore how people think and feel, and why they do the things they do, but with a different spin.
Intuition, creativity and a little luck landed Lianna at Open Mind Strategy (OMS), where she's "grown up" professionally, gaining experience in all aspects of the research process and learning to translate human understanding into brand strategy.
As VP, Director of Research at Open Mind Strategy, Lianna oversees both qualitative and quantitative research endeavors, balancing her time as a project director, researcher and thought partner. She works closely with clients to ensure the research is tailored to their unique needs and objectives, including recent projects with USA Today, Amazon, Syfy, Yahoo!, Travel Channel and Food Network.
Prior to joining OMS, Lianna developed her skill for internal team management as an assistant in Robin's planning department at KB+P where she steered jobs for clients, including the NBC Olympics, CMT and Comedy Central. Moving into a role as a planner at KB+P, Lianna worked with creative teams, developing strategies and providing key insights for clients including Wendy's, Capital One and Starz.
While Lianna is adept at managing the operational details of OMS's diverse roster of research projects, her favorite part of the job is still that moment when a consumer randomly surprises and fascinates her, offering a priceless insight that can change the way that she and her clients think.

text: Currently half of my guild does not want the RoF T1 Visable raid gear and are even iffy on the RoF T2 raid Visables. This is based on their comments and lack of bidding on raids. When they look at the RoF gear they see what they lose. In my case it took 3 pieces of T1 RoF gear to make up for the emblem lose. I have had to make the case several times that the entire set is better then the old t4 set. However the difference is so marginal that most intend to skip it. Was this intended? The line from the expansion made at least me think we would see greater differences, not marginal ones. But I guess an "increase" never meant anything more then +1. New Linear Item Progression – Stats on armor collected will increase as you move up from one tier to another. Maybe I am alone in thinking this gear is..........lacking, but I figured I would post and see your thoughts.

It is not a good time to be a natural gas bull it seems.
Natural gas is already reducing some of the hurricane premium
that it has priced in earlier. A hurricane forecaster from
Colorado seems to suggest that this year's forecast will be more
so ominous than those in the past. While the lingering winter has
kept natural gas supported, the arrival of more spring like
temperature should ease the recent rally. Bloomberg News reported
that Colorado State University forecaster's predicted recently
there will be nine hurricanes during the 2011 Atlantic storm
season, with five of them becoming "major" storms. In all, 16
named storms are expected to develop. Last year forecasters
predicted 8 "major storms" so we are seeing a reduction by three.
Not that five isn't a big number, yet if you calculate the odds
of these storms doing major damage to energy faculties if
Colorado is right the chances of major damage to oil and gas is
significantly lower than it was a year ago. At the same time the
rig counts for shale gas is at a record and the Energy
Information Agency came out with another report this week showing
how abundant the supplies of natural gas really are! And I am not
talking about storage. It is a small world after all and it is a
world that is filled with natural gas. The EIA says that, "the
use of horizontal drilling in conjunction with hydraulic
fracturing has greatly expanded the ability of producers to
profitably produce natural gas from low permeability geologic
formations, particularly shale formations. Application of
fracturing techniques to stimulate oil and gas production began
to grow rapidly in the 1950s, although experimentation dates back
to the 19th century. Starting in the mid-1970s, a partnership of
private operators, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the
Gas Research Institute (
) endeavored to develop technologies for the commercial
production of natural gas from the relatively shallow Devonian
(Huron) shale in the Eastern United States. This partnership
helped foster technologies that eventually became crucial to
producing natural gas from shale rock, including horizontal
wells, multi-stage fracturing, and slick-water fracturing.
Practical application of horizontal drilling to oil production
began in the early 1980s, by which time the advent of improved
downhole drilling motors and the invention of other necessary
supporting equipment, materials, and technologies, particularly
downhole telemetry equipment, had brought some applications
within the realm of commercial viability. The advent of
large-scale shale gas production did not occur until Mitchell
Energy and Development Corporation experimented during the 1980s
and 1990s to make deep shale gas production a commercial reality
in the Barnett Shale in North-Central Texas. As the success of
Mitchell Energy and Development became apparent, other companies
aggressively entered this play so that by 2005, the Barnett Shale
alone was producing almost half a trillion cubic feet per year of
natural gas. As natural gas producers gained confidence in the
ability to profitably produce natural gas in the Barnett Shale
and confirmation of this ability was provided by the results from
the Fayetteville Shale in North Arkansas, they began pursuing
other shale formations, including the Haynesville, Marcellus,
Woodford, Eagle Ford and other shale's. The development of shale
gas plays has become a "game changer" for the U.S. natural gas
market. The proliferation of activity into new shale plays has
increased shale gas production in the United States from 0.39
trillion cubic feet in 2000 to 4.87 trillion cubic feet in 2010,
or 23 percent of U.S. dry gas production. Shale gas reserves have
increased to about 60.6 trillion cubic feet by year-end 2009,
when they comprised about 21 percent of overall U.S. natural gas
reserves, now at the highest level since 1971. The growing
importance of U.S. shale gas resources is also reflected in EIA's
Annual Energy Outlook 2011 (AEO2011) energy projections, with
technically recoverable U.S. shale gas resources now estimated at
862 trillion cubic feet. Given a total natural gas resource base
of 2,543 trillion cubic feet in the AEO2011 Reference case, shale
gas resources constitute 34 percent of the domestic natural gas
resource base represented in the AEO2011 projections and 50
percent of lower 48 onshore resources. As a result, shale gas is
the largest contributor to the projected growth in production,
and by 2035 shale gas production accounts for 46 percent of U.S.
natural gas production. The successful investment of capital and
diffusion of shale gas technologies has continued into Canadian
shale's as well. In response several other countries have
expressed interest in developing their own nascent shale gas
resource base, which has lead to questions regarding the broader
implications of shale gas for international natural gas markets.
The Wall Street Journal reports, "The North American shale-gas
bonanza could be the tip of a gigantic natural-gas iceberg,
according to a report commissioned by the U.S. Energy Information
Administration. The report, which contains an overview of
natural-gas-bearing shale-rock formations in 32 countries,
estimates that these contain about 5,760 trillion cubic feet of
technically recoverable gas. That is nearly seven times the
amount present in the U.S, according to the report, which was
released late Tuesday. The biggest overseas natural-gas shale
reserves lie in China, with 1,275 Tcf. Argentina, Mexico, South
Africa and Canada are also endowed with massive reserves, the
report, written by consultancy Advanced Resources International
Inc., said. Other countries with large amounts of gas-rich shale
include Libya, Algeria, France and Poland. Each of these
countries has hundreds of trillions of cubic feet of shale
natural gas that can be exploited using existing technology.
Independent U.S. oil companies learned to unlock the gas trapped
in tight shale rock formations in the 1980s and 1990s, and the
technique spread during the last decade, triggering an unexpected
supply boost in North American natural gas. The EIA report's
findings underscore how the propagation of those
techniques--based on drilling horizontally in the rock formation,
and cracking it with water to release the gas--could unleash a
similar natural-gas supply boom around the globe.Russia, Central
Asia, the Middle East, Southeast Asia and Central Africa weren't
part of the study. The report also didn't take into account
production costs, or above-the-ground factors such as access to
resources in the countries that were studied. Major and
independent U.S. oil companies such as Marathon Oil Corp. (
), Exxon Mobil Corp. (
) and Apache Corp. (
) are already betting on the potential of overseas shale
resources. So are big national oil companies like China's Cnooc
Ltd. (
), which earlier this year struck a deal with Chesapeake Energy
Corp. (CHK) to buy into U.S. shale assets; the state-run company
aims to leverage the expertise acquired there toward the
exploitation of China's vast shale resources." In the mean time
gas may have its last withdrawal of the season in today's weekly
report! Look for a draw of 40 Bcf! Make sure you are getting the

All quotes tagged Obsessing
(147 quotes found)
"Love is as much of an object as an obsession, everybody wants it everybody seeks it, but few ever achieve it, those who do, will cherish it, be lost in it, and among all, will never...never forget it."
"I am interested in the notion that people can become so obsessed by their world that they lose sense and awareness of how they appear to other people. They're so earnest about it. But that's true of so many things."
"I know quite certainly that I myself have no special talent; curiosity, obsession and dogged endurance, combined with self-criticism, have brought me to my ideas."
"If a poet is anybody, he is somebody to whom things made matter very little -- somebody who is obsessed by Making."
"The refusal to rest content, the willingness to risk excess on behalf of one's obsessions, is what distinguishes artists from entertainers, and what makes some artists adventurers on behalf of us all."
"One essential to success is that your desire be an all-obsessing one, your thoughts and aim be coordinated, and your energy be concentrated and applied without letup."
"I'm obsessed with crocodiles and getting eaten by one. When I hear that someone's been eaten by a crocodile or shark, I just get all gooey. I start salivating."
