The oil and gas industry will spend just under $10 billion in 2014 for valves. This is the conclusion reached by the McIlvaine Company in Industrial Valves: World Markets.
* The largest purchases will be ball valves which will account for 30 percent of the total. Gate valves will account for $1.8 billion of the revenues. One major use of gate valves is at the wellhead in an assembly known as the “Christmas Tree.” Valve functions include directing oil and gas from the well to further processing, shutting down the well, and injection of various chemicals for well stimulation or enhanced oil recovery. Check valves are also used for this service.
Pipeline applications include periodically spaced isolation valves for segmenting the pipeline in the event of a leak or the need for other service. These valves are typically full-ported gate or ball valves which provide low pressure drop when fully open, tight shutoff when closed and full porting to permit pipeline pigging.
The total investment for a 200 mcfd gas processing plant would be $150 million and would require an expenditure of $5 million for valves. Twenty percent would be for control and 80 percent would be on/off.
An LNG liquefaction plant can cost $8.3 billion. The valve portion would be 1 percent or $83 million. There are a number of liquefaction projects underway in the U.S. due to the abundance of shale gas.

No I didn't get inured or quit skating.
What happened? Summer. Since my last post we had family visiting on two occasions, then flew back to Oshkosh WI for our annual trip to the fly in convention. Now we're home, but headed out camping for a few days in our trailer with the dog. Meanwhile we are in the beginning stages of building a new house.
It's all fun, so I can't complain..... I will save that for when I get back on the ice next Monday and can't do anything, feel sore and frustrated!
Nice photos, don't worry about the first day back, you'll be so rested and relaxed that ytou will have way more energy than you think.

Last Trading Session: Indian Stock Market opened flat with positive bias. Some short covering was seen in initial trade but Nifty was unable to sustain at higher levels. Nifty fell down sharply and saw strong support at EquityPandit’s predicted support levels of 7450. As EquityPandit Predicted, Nifty remained consolidated in the rangebound region of 7450-7700 levels. Finally Nifty closed negative but managed to close above EquityPandit’s predicted support levels of 7480. Sensex also saw lows near EquityPandit’s predicted support levels of 24840 levels.
Today: Indian Stock Market to open flat. Technically 7480 level is a make or break level for Nifty by closing. If Nifty closes below 7480 levels then the sharp downtrend would be seen in days to come and Nifty could even test levels of 7250 in that case. Technically, Indian Stock Market is still in consolidation phase in a rangebound region of 7450-7700 for Nifty. Breaching any of these levels by volumes would force Nifty the move sharply in that direction. 7480-7450-7250 would act as strong support for Nifty. Nifty would see strong resistance at 7540-7605-7680 levels for Nifty. Traders should buy near EquityPandit’s predicted support levels and should sell near EquityPandit’s predicted resistance levels in this market. Since, EquityPandit’s support and resistance levels always meet accuracy; hence traders are suggested to follow them for good profits.

Public vs. Private Cloud Server: Which Is Best for You?
These days, backing up your information on a cloud server is a safe bet. That goes double if you're running a business and need storage. But should you choose a public cloud server or a private cloud server?
The kind of server that you should get depends on your needs. They both have benefits that should be considered prior to deciding.
In this article, we will discuss private and public cloud servers and why you may choose one over the other.
Looking to secure data on the cloud? One of the primary advantages of cloud hosting is security. Cloud applications are designed so that vulnerabilities can be immediately patched rather than having to wait for users to install updates. But with recent data breaches at large cloud providers, how safe is the cloud?
When you choose a cloud provider your number one question should be, how are they going to keep my information safe? While cloud providers can assure you that security is their top concern, you can take some steps to ensure your information doesn’t fall victim to security breaches and hackers.
Looking for a place to host your business applications and data? Outgrown your current hosting plan? It might be time to make the switch to cloud servers.
Cloud dedicated servers are the future of business hosting. From reduced cost and increased storage space, they outperform their traditional hosting counterparts in almost every way.
Let’s take a look at why your business needs a cloud dedicated server.
Cloud hosting service providers span a vast range of services, capabilities, and expertise. The best cloud hosting providers offer a secure and reliable infrastructure platform capable of supporting and scaling business critical operations easily and consistently. But it can be difficult for prospective cloud clients to tell the difference between a great cloud hosting service provider and a provider that can’t offer the best service.
Cloud computing is the use of internet-connected servers to host software and virtual infrastructure accessed and controlled over the web or an API. The phrase “cloud computing” has only been used for a decade or so, but the history of cloud computing stretches back much further.
We’re rapidly approaching the tenth anniversary of the cloud. In the last decade, the cloud has fundamentally reshaped the infrastructure hosting and enterprise IT space, and in the process has matured enormously. The cloud has evolved from a rudimentary alternative to on-prem data centers to the highly capable and flexible platform we take for granted today.
It will continue to evolve in the future, in ways that are both predictable and beyond our ability to forecast. The future of cloud will be managed, hybrid, make heavy use of containers, and be distributed beyond the traditional data center.

The Canadian Paul Landry (06/09/1955), explorer, author and adventurer, is one of the best known polar guides in the world. Hailing from Ontario, which is the Canadian province with the largest population, he loved the extreme cold from an early age, never hesitating to go off on his own, skiing in winter and kayaking in summer, exploring the many wild and wonderful areas located not far from the small community of Smooth Rock Falls where he lived.
Paul worked for ten years at the Outward Bound School, with the last four dedicated to running the programmes of the Canadian Outward Wilderness School, which specialises in organising trips into the furthest flung regions and promoting the spirit of adventure in young people. It was there that he met his wife-to-be, Kathy McNair, with whom he has two children. As an explorer and professional guide, Paul Landry has reached the South Pole twice, crossed the continent of Antarctica once and acted as guide for clients four times to the North Pole. He has also scaled numerous peaks in South America and explored several of the major rivers in the great North American outdoors.
He now lives on Baffin Island where, after working for 13 years for a Tour Operator specialising in the polar regions (Northwinds), he founded an outdoor travel company (Polar Consultants') that he runs with his wife, Kathy McNair. He also presents courses on survival and has a professional team of sled dogs. "I don't have a lot of patience for bureaucracy," he admits when asked to reveal a little about himself. "And I don't like over-populated cities either, or boring films. Nothing gives me more pleasure than taking a group of fit young people out to encounter the dangers of the ice â whether it be on glaciers, icecaps or pack-ice..."
November 2006 âJanuary 2007 : Teamn2i Antarctic Expedition. With a team of four (Rupert Longsdon, Rory Sweetand and Jenry Cookson), Paul Landry has joined the pole of Inacessibility, starting from the Russian scientific base of Novolazarevskaya at the coast. They left the base on December 8th and reached their goal on January 19th, covering a total distance of 1 756 km.
March - June 2006 : Top of the World ; together with David de Rothshild, Martin Hartley and Sarah McNair-Landry, he has tried an attempt to cross the entire Arctic Ocean. This project was initiated by David de Rotshild and Adventure Ecology.
June 2003 : Greenland Ice Cap Crossing. Crossed the Greenlandice cap with the use of dogs, skis and kites, pushing the standards on expedition updates with daily text, photo and video updates from their tent directly to their web site.
November 2002 â January 2003 : South Pole Expedition. Guided an expedition for Adventure Network International (ANI) to the South Pole with three clients: Tom Avery, Patrick Woodhead & Andrew Gerber. Using power kites, they wereable to complete the journey in 48 days.
March 2002 â May 2002 : North Pole Expedition. Guided an expedition to the North Pole with one client: Swee Chow. They traveled from Ward Hunt Island to the North Geographic Pole, making the journey in 46 days.
November 2001 â January 2002 : South Pole Expedition. Guided an Adventure Network International (ANI) expedition to the South Pole with two clients: Chris Weyers from Australia andTimo Polari from Finland. They started Nov. 29 from Hercules Inlet, traveled south along the 82nd meridian and reached the South Pole in 58 days.
March 2001 â May 2001 : North Pole Expedition. Guided the British Millennium North Pole expedition in 2001 with Mike and Fiona Thornewill and Katharine Hartley. Fiona & Catharine became the first women to reach both North and South Poles. The journey was completed without incident in 56 days.
March 2000 â April 2000 : North Pole Expedition. "Huskies to the Pole â In the Footsteps of Peary." They departed from the most northern point of land in Canada, Ward Hunt Island, on March 3rd and arrived at the Geographic North Pole 42 days later, on April 13th, 2000 thus proving that Peary's 1909 claim of reaching the Pole in 38 days is definitely within therealm of possibility. Landry's partner and himself emulated Peary's travel techniques: they departed early in the season and used the same number of dogs pulling sleds weighing approximately the same as Peary's.
April 1998 : Magnetic North Pole Expedition. In 1998, Landry completed an unsupported dog sled and ski expedition from Resolute to the Magnetic North Pole, covering a distance of 600 kilometers in 15 days. His British client and himself used the Norwegian "polar travel method" perfected by Sverdrup and later Amundsen during his successful expedition to the South Pole. The Norwegian approach is to combine dog sledding andskiing, with the skiers holding onto the back of the sled whilethey shuffle along on skis reducing the weight on the sled and allowingthe dogs to run at a faster speed. We averaged 45 kilometers per day and arrived at the Magnetic Pole on May 4.
February 1990 â June 1990 : Baffin Island Expedition. Member of the Baffin Island Expedition: a 4,000 kilometers, 4-month dog sled journey around Baffin Island. They traveled to eight communities on Baffin Island and had the opportunity to immerse themselves in the Inuit culture.

Sketching out exhibit layout ideas waaaaaay back when we first started designing Bamboo Forest Reserve.
Designs for the new Bamboo Forest Reserve exhibit—including a new home for a pair of Asian small-clawed otters—started two years ago with a sketch on paper.
The otters slowly emerged into their new exhibit this week. Photo by Ryan Hawk/Woodland Park Zoo.
Now that we’re seeing the design work turn into reality with phase one of the exhibit opening this weekend, we’re discovering that we aren't the only ones with ideas on how the exhibit should look. The otters have designs of their own!

This week, the otters were introduced to their new home, and we watched them put the finishing touches on the exhibit themselves.
Video: Otters rearrange the plants. Produced by Ryan Hawk/Woodland Park Zoo. Narration by Caileigh Robertson/Woodland Park Zoo.
They tore into some of the reeds and bamboo plants our horticulture team lovingly planted in the area. But this wasn't wanton destruction—the otters were actually plucking the plants and dragging them over to their covered den to lay them down as bedding.

To see them making themselves comfortable gave us great confidence that the otters are adjusting well and really settling into their new space, making it their own.
The exhibit debuts with grand opening celebrations on May 4, including live music, giveaways, keeper talks and lots more. Join us this Saturday!
awesome! can't wait to see it!

Horse racing was an especially popular sport with royalty, the aristocracy and the gentry during the eighteenth century. Its origins go back well beyond that time, though earlier races tended to be simple challenges between two riders and their horses. James I began racing his horses for fun by 1605, choosing the obscure Cambridgeshire village of Newmarket to do so. He spent so much time on the sport that parliament had to petition him to give greater attention to the business of state. Where royalty led, the aristocracy were never far behind, especially in matters of pleasure and gambling.
By the reign of Charles I, regular race meetings were being held at Newmarket, as well as elsewhere in the country. Cromwell suppressed public races and the gambling that went with them. Charles II, naturally, brought them back and became a devotee. He even took part as a jockey. At the start of the eighteenth century, Queen Anne kept many horses and encouraged the establishment of regular racing at Ascot.
It was in the mid-eighteenth century that racing assumed its modern form. Several of today’s ‘classic’ races were first run then, such as the Derby, the Oaks and the St. Leger.
However, this post is concerned with later developments and how they affected Norfolk. It was in the mid-eighteenth century that racing assumed its modern form. Several of today’s ‘classic’ races were first run then, such as the Derby, the Oaks and the St. Leger. The Jockey Club was also established (in 1750) to regulate the sport and establish codified rules to govern how it should be organised. As was the system of handicapping still in use today. By 1762, certain horse owners were officially able to register their jockeys’ racing colours or ‘silks’.
It’s interesting to note that the original list contained no less than seven dukes, one marquis, four earls, one viscount, one lord, two baronets and only three plain ‘misters’. If not purely the sport of kings, breeding racehorses was pretty much a preserve of the aristocracy and wealthier gentry. Not really surprising, of course, given the huge costs involved in owning and training a string of suitable thoroughbreds. Gambling, naturally, was open to anyone with money and nerve enough.
Nowadays, races are held at Great Yarmouth and Fakenham, but in the eighteenth century one of the principal meetings took place just outside the little market town of Holt, on land now occupied by Holt Country Park. This area was then part of a great swathe of heathland that virtually surrounded the town to the east and south — a stretch deemed largely wasteland, save for a few rabbit warrens and some miserable sheep. Racecourses were often established on such land, because they were thought useless for agriculture, were relatively easy to clear from excessive vegetation and had sandy soils that made good racetracks.
Mr. Bullock’s Bay Gelding, Nimrod, rode by himself.
Col Townshend’s Chestnut Gelding, Forester, rode by Mr. Walker, was distanced in the first Heat.
The Company on the Ground during the whole Time of the Races was very numerous and splendid; there were near a Dozen Coaches and Six, most of the horses Bays or Chestnut, and all with grand Equipages, besides a multitude of Post-Chaises, Coaches and Four, Chariots, Berlins, Phaetons, Chaises, Flys, etc.
The Assemblies were very brilliant, and a Subscription was opened for the Next Year’s races at Swaffham.
On Wednesday the 17th Inst. Will be run on Holt Race Ground, a Match for One Hundred Guineas between two capital Hunters.
After which Saddles and a Five Pound Cup will be given gratis to be run for by any Horse, Mare, or Gelding, not having won or started for a larger prize.
Every Horse, &c. Must be entered at the Bar of the Feathers Inn, Holt, before Ten o’Clock in the Morning of that Day.
An ORDINARY at the Feathers.
HOLT ASSEMBLY will be on Tuesday, the 16th of September next.
Tickets to be had at the Feathers Inn, at 3s 6d each, Tea and Cards included.
The RACES the next Day.
Holt features several times in my books about Dr Adam Bascom. In the eighteenth century it was a rather more important place than it is today, with a regular market for the area round about. It was also the meeting place for the local magistrates and Overseers of the Poor, as well as being the starting point for various coach routes, including Norwich and London.
Interesting! Do I suspect a real horse race in a future book?
Just a note of thanks for your books and these delightful insights into the past.
Thanks. I’m glad you like them. Have a great Christmas.

1. It compels the decision maker to identify the variables which affect the cashflow forecasts. This helps him in understanding the investment project in totality.
2. It indicates the critical variables for which additional information may be obtained. The decision maker can consider actions which may help in strengthening the "weak spots" in the project.
3. It helps to expose inappropriate forecasts and thus guides the decision maker to concentrate on relevant variables.
1. It does not provide clear cut results. The terms optimistic and pessimistic could mean different things to different people.
2. It fails to focus on the interrelationship between underlying variables. For example sales volume may be related to price and cost but we analyse each variable differently.

The first of the three fundamental capabilities of managers, Problem Solving Capability, helps us understand how problems are solved and decisions are made. For managers, however, there are other types of abilities that are necessary for success. The second of the three fundamental capabilities is embodied in Skills and Knowledge. Having the appropriate knowledge, as well as the ability to demonstrate and apply that knowledge both technically and socially, is key for effective management.
The topic has been defined in a variety of ways by a broad range of academics. For instance, Elliott Jacques discusses managerial leadership skills. Peter Drucker speaks to effective management and all of the different elements or skills needed to be successful. And in Systems Leadership: Creating Positive Organizations, Ian McDonald, Catherine Burke and Karl Stewart discuss human capability and the elements of individual capabilities or skills required to sustain a “systems” approach for managing effectively. Rather than broadly defining the capability as “skills and knowledge,” let’s examine how they differ.
Knowledge refers to the body of knowledge that an individual has accumulated over the course of his or her career or life. For instance, as a CEO, you would be required to have a body of knowledge that gives you the capability to do the work, the knowledge you need to be successful in that position. Similarly, to be an accountant, one would need to have the knowledge that is obtained through the education required for the acquisition of an accounting designation.
Technical Skills refer to the proficient use of knowledge, meaning how well you can apply what you know. It is possible to have knowledge recognized by appropriate academic degrees, but lack the technical skills to apply that knowledge in a meaningful way in the organization. Demonstrated ability means having the ability to use knowledge in an effective way to accomplish the work needed to complete a task, or produce and output. For example, a Director of IT, would need to have the technical skills to be able to apply the knowledge acquired that would be appropriate for the Director level position. Similarly, a Project Manager would need to have the knowledge with respect to project management and the project management technical skills to be able to use that knowledge to successfully complete the project.
Finally, Social Processing Skills are those that give an individual the ability to function in different kinds of social situations while understanding the processes needed to complete the work. Front-line workers, for instance, must have some understanding of how to interact with the people around them so that, together with their peers, they can accomplish what the front-line manager expects. As you move up in the organization, the complexity of social situations increases. A CEO must be able to manage not only all of the social interaction between his or her employees and across departments, but also interactions between key stakeholders and others in the external environment such as government agencies.
A skilled organization effectiveness consultant will be able to help you determine how the management in your organization can become more effective in effectively using these categories to design positions and recruitment strategies.
