The new BBC in the neighborhood part 6
The new BBC in the neighborhood part 6Living with Barbara has been lot of fun. and of course unlimited sex. I have gone to fuck Gina and a couple of her friends, and the three girl at the hotel. I even walked in on my Barbara getting fucked by one of her clients. After they were done, and came out of the spare room. I was sitting on the sofa with a look of what the fuck is going on here, caused her client to stop in his tracks and said oh fuck. He said I am sorry man, she didn't tell me she had a boyfriend, I am really sorry. Barbara saw what was going on and said to him, don't pay attention to him, we have a open relationship so he's just fucking with you. I got up and walked over to him and introduced my self and he did the same. So I asked how did you like her pussy, hot and tight huh and the rest of her body is hot. Afraid to say anything wrong he just said yes. I told him I know, she gets my cock every time I'm around her. to me. Anyways have a good day my friend. I'm not going be fucking him again. I asked her why. She said that he's a mediocre lover and his dick is only average and his condom kept slipping off so we had to keep stopping. Also since I've been fucking your monster cock, any dick is going to feel small.My house is finished and my love has decorated it perfectly, I think partially for her benefit and taste. She decided to have a welcome to the neighborhood get together. All together she has invited about twenty people from the neighborhood. She is having the party catered with a open bar. I said honey what are you doing, that's going to cost a fortune, she came to with her arms around my neck and kissed me and then so what, we, I mean you can afford it. Then she said take me up to our new bedroom and test it out. We went at it like bunnies, we only had about four hours before our guest start arriving and we usually fuck for hours. I used every hole and finished up cumming on her hot tits and face, and then lick her cunt to a big orgasm. We decided to shower separately so that we didn't start again.My sexy lady was wearing a Dark blue sun dress with spaghetti straps, no bra so you could see her nipples witch are almost always hard and a sheer blue thong. She took out for me a pair of khaki short the same color as here dress and a light blue polo shirt.She looked at me and said you look good enough to fuck. I reminded her that we don't have time for that. She said I still have to do my makeup, but before I do I need to do this, she pushed me back on the bed, pulled my shorts down and gave me a mind blowing blowjob. She wanted my cum in mouth and she knew time was short so was fucking me with her throat. I felt so fucking good, in ten minutes I was was filling her mouth with my load, she got halkalı escort up and said yummy just what I needed, not get out of here so I can finish getting ready. I thought, being single, how do I explain this high end makeup table.Our guest are arriving, after introductions Barbara shows the house, some asked her who was the designer and she proudly said that she had done it, many told her that they were planning to remodel and would like to hire her to do it for us. Nobody had a bad thing to say about the house and grounds. Barbara and I walked to the back yard area to see how it was going. Many were in the pool, the hot tub was almost full and their were people hanging near and under the water feature and the booze was flowing freely. People came up to us to say how much they liked the setup of the house and thanked us for inviting them. Some of the women said what a good couple we make and we lied and said that we weren't, she is the designer who put this all together and is here to see the reaction of the guest. You could tell they didn't believe a word of it. Barbara said that she was going to change into her bathing suit. I said OK but it's best that we go separately. Shortly later she came down and her suit would give a dead man a hard-on. It was piece bikini same color as her dress.Their wasn't very much to the top and did nothing to hide her always hard nipples. I think her bottom was the same thong panties she was wearing under dress and she had it covered with a sheer blue wrap. The outfit showed off her flat belly. I told her that's not the suit of a host. She said fuck being a host, I wore this for you, I know it's making you want to throw me on the ground and fuck me in front of our guest. I told her that she knows me so well. So go change for me lover and I will mingle and make a lot of these women jealous and the men hard, with that I called her a slut and that I loved her.I was looking for my suit. Barbara unpacked my things so I have no idea were it was. I am naked and still looking for my suit when I heard someone behind me gasp. I turned around to face a cute lady in her sixties average body and tits. she was wearing a almost see thru sun dress. She said sorry, the bathroom downstairs was busy so she came up here to find one. She never took her eyes off of my dick. k**ding I said my eyes are up here. Turning red she was again sorry for staring but I have never seen a black penis and never one that big. I told her to come closer and get a better look. Uncertain she did and sat on the bed with my dick only inches from her face, making it look even bigger. She asked if she could touch it, I told her to do whatever you want with nişantaşı escort it. She was stroking it when she decided she wanted to taste it and put as much as she could in her mouth and sucked it hard. I told her that I want to fuck her now that she sucked my cock. Tell me you want my cock in your cunt. She said please put your penis in my vagina. I if you want it, tell me you want my hard black cock in your white cunt and fuck me. You could see that she wasn't use to talking that way, but she did it. I laid her back on the bed between her wide open legs and gave her what she needed. She was trying not to moan out loud but not doing very good at it. She had already cum twice and now it was my turn. It was then that I remembered my agreement with Barbara about fucking someone without a condom. It was too late I was already fill her with my hot load. When we were done she got up, I told her where the bathroom was and off she went. I found my suit and knew I had to find Barbara and tell her my mistake. She was sitting on the edge of the pool with two guys skin to skin on either side of her getting an eye full of her beautiful tits. I pulled her away saying I had to talk to her. We went down to the basement where I told her what happened and that I was sorry. She pulled me close, put her arms around my neck and said it was OK, she understood. She said she needed to know one thing, wanted to know if I meant it earlier when I said that I loved her. I replied That I had said it in response to her dressing like a slut. She had a look of sadness in her eyes. Then I went on with but, I do love you, I think I did ever since the night we made love instead of fucking, I was afraid to say so. She said baby I also love you very much. For now we will continue our plan to play with others. We returned to see how are get together was going. More, than less of the were feeling pretty good for all the free booze. And some quite a few of them were rather frisky, hands on asses or inside suit bottoms. Some women had their tops pulled down just before being bare. A few couples in the pool had the women facing the walls or sitting on the sides with men close behind them or in between their legs. I am sure they are grinding or even discreetly fucking and I have no doubt that the people under the waterfall were fucking. This has turned into something other than a welcome to the neighborhood party.We decided to divide and conquer. She went to the pool and I went to the hot tub. Their were six people on the hot tub and four of them are topless. I asked if they were having a good time. All of them said yes and one of them said it would be better if I got in their with them. şişli escort I had to think hard if that was a good idea, especially after what happened earlier. I look over to the pool and saw that my baby was in the pool so I went for it. As I climbed in, The flirty one said don't fall unless it's against me.All the other ladies busted out in laughter. So the again the flirty one who happen to be one of the topless one said to sit next to her which I did. I asked the ladies what did they think of the house and all of them approved of the job Barbara had done and the flirt next to me who's name is Denise said yes especially the bedrooms. Denise then asked how long Barbara have been a couple, I lied and said that we weren't. She said bullshit, I see how you two are together, at the very least your're lovers, again I said nope. She said we will see. By this point three of the women had gotten out, one was topless with beautiful and obviously fake boobs. Again we continued the talking and making each other laugh. Every time Denis laugh her big tits would rise out of the water. I think this made one of the other women get out. It was just me, Denise and the other woman was Julie who was also topless. Denise told her to come sit next to us so we didn't have to yell across the tub, She also had big tits. As we talked Denise was so close her leg was against mine. She raised her arms in a yawn and slipped into the tub, she had to grab a hold of my leg to keep from sliding under and in doing so she got a hold of my dick and pulled herself up and didn't let go right away. She gave me a smile and a squeeze before she let go. She said so sorry, I knew it was on purpose. I reached under the water to push myself up a little and it was then that I realized that Denise was naked. She felt it and realized I knew and said I hope you don't mind, but being nude in a hot tub feels so much better. I told her that Agreed, but were is your suit, she pointed to a chair just out of the tub. So you climbed in here naked. She told me that the people here know I have no shame, I paid a lot for this body and have no problem showing it off. I looked over at Julie and asked if she was also fully naked and she said no but she could be. Denise said you should try, it feel so good with the jets hitting your naked body, so I thought fuck it. I lifted my hips up to pull my suit off and Denise said let us help. The both grabbed a side and slowly pulled off my suit and ran their hands back up my legs. When they got to my hips Denise grabbed my cock and Julie my balls. Denise says wow stud this thing is huge, how big is it. I told her 9.5 and you can tell it's very thick. Julie told Denise that my balls were the size of tennis balls, very heavy, I bet they shoot a gallon of cum. Then Denise said they should switch and both girls said shit. The both played with me and I had a hand in each of their cunts. Denise had enough of this teasing and said baby I need this buried in me, I said OK, then asked Julie if she was going to join us, she begged off and said their will be other times.

Buy Low Sell High: Lessons Learned From Week 9 In Fantasy Football
Wai Sallas
WaiSallas
The winds of change have started to blow the last remnants of a prolonged summer into the thinning atmosphere as the clouds roll in and with it, fall, winter and the fantasy football trade deadline.
There are really no rules to trading in fantasy football. Maybe a few unwritten ones. For the most part however, if two individuals agree to a deal regardless of the particulars that trade becomes official. Anyone can trade; those who linger near the top in standings may look for the final piece to shore up their roster as they head into the playoffs, the middle tiered teams will look to fill weaknesses to make the last push into the playoffs and last place teams can trade with the hopes of finishing the year not in last place.
No one or nothing is out of bounds when it comes to trades. In fact, one of the big items to add or trade is the Carolina defense. The Panthers' remaining opponents are the Dolphins, at Saints, at Jets, Vikings, Packers and Buccaneers. To add to that, Carolina is at home against subpar offenses for the entire fantasy football playoffs.
Here are some other names to either buy or sell.
Buy Low
Baltimore Pass Catchers
Only the Saints completed more passes last year than the Baltimore Ravens. When Baltimore signed Danny Woodhead in the offseason, a continuing emphasis on the passing game was expected. When Woodhead went down in the first quarter, that all changed. The Ravens offense has been a mess and injuries have played a big part. Two weeks ago against the Vikings, Baltimore was without Jeremy Maclin and Breshad Perriman, and Mike Wallace was injured early.
.@danny__woodhead returns to practice. #RavensFlock pic.twitter.com/cbbRZFG5gf
— Baltimore Ravens (@Ravens) November 1, 2017
Expect things to change with the return of Woodhead. The Ravens altered their game plan against Tennessee and passed the ball 52 times with 34 completions. With Woodhead, the Ravens employ one of the biggest passing threats out of the backfield. The last two weeks in the fantasy football playoffs, Baltimore faces Cleveland and Indianapolis, currently ranked 18th and 31st in passing yards allowed. Expect big numbers from Maclin and Woodhead down the stretch.
Tennessee Running Backs
Both Derrick Henry and Demarco Murray currently rank in the top 30 at running back. Tennessee is 10th in rushing yards and average 27 rushes to 30 passes per game. The problem is the duo is as close to an equal split as possible. Use this to your advantage.
.@Titans RBs at 1/2 point:@DeMarcoMurray: 95 rushes, 391 yards, 4.1 avg, 2 TDs@KingHenry_2: 83 rushes, 357 yards, 4.3 avg, 3 TDs
— Jim Wyatt (@jwyattsports) November 6, 2017
The Titans face San Francisco and the Rams to end the fantasy football season, 32nd and 25th in rushing defense, respectively. There's no reason you can't offer a running back with more consistent numbers with an unfavorable December schedule to entice someone who owns Henry or Murray. If I had to choose one, it would be Henry. When you have a running back situation like this, you want the one who is more likely to break a run wide open. That is Henry.
Phillip Rivers
Rivers came into 2017 having posted four straight seasons with at least 4,200 passing yards and 29 passing touchdowns. Using that metric, he is performing below expectations at the midway point with 2,028 yards and 13 touchdowns. Rivers currently sits at QB13, but has one of the most favorable schedules down the home stretch. The Chargers face Dallas, Cleveland, Kansas City, Washington, and the Jets. Each opponent is ranked in the bottom half of passing defense.
Belichick adds Phillip Rivers "is a real football guy, like Tom (Brady), like Peyton (Manning)." https://t.co/9QJHRX4cWv
— Henry McKenna (@McKennAnalysis) October 25, 2017
With Rivers' consistency year in and year out and no major injuries to Los Angeles' skill position, look for a healthy second half, especially in the fantasy football playoffs.
Sell High
It's understandable that you might want to stop reading right here, close all tabs, shut down your computer and try some sort of Men in Black memory wipe from such a hot take. Listen.
Outside of Weeks 2 and 3 where Brady threw for eight touchdowns, Brady has been…pedestrian at best. No games with more than 20 fantasy points. Also during that span, Touchdown Tommy has no games with more than two scores. His favorite weapon, Chris Hogan is battling a shoulder injury keeping him sidelined for an extended period.
#Patriots WR Chris Hogan does not need surgery for his shoulder injury, source said. Just rest & rehab, out a few weeks. Reevaluate post-bye
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) October 31, 2017
After the bye, New England faces Miami twice, Buffalo twice, Oakland and Denver. Look for the Patriots to pound it on the ground in all of those match ups leaving very limited opportunities for Brady's Bunch.
Over the last three weeks heading into this week's bye, Brown has stayed consistent with 10 targets per game. At the same time, his fantasy points have dropped precipitously. 21.5, 12.5 and 7. Part of it is due to the Steelers changing their offense to feature more Le'Veon Bell. Bell's carries have skyrocketed and the Steelers are winning games, controlling the line of scrimmage and the time of possession. The other reason is the emergence of Juju Smith-Schuster.
JuJu Smith-Schuster leads all rookie receivers in: receptions, yards, and touchdowns. #Steelers
— Alex Kozora (@Alex_Kozora) November 6, 2017
Since Smith-Schuster replaced Bryant as the second most targeted receiver on the Steelers, Brown's numbers have declined. In Week 8, Smith-Schuster had the same amount of targets as Brown (10) but had 193 yards to Brown's and a score.
If you look at the schedule going forward, Pittsburgh faces Baltimore in Week 3, a traditionally low scoring game, and then the Patriots. While New England has struggled on defense, Bill Belichick's strategy has always been to take away a team's best option. For Pittsburgh, who is that? Bell or Brown. Is it worth the gamble?
Trading Brown is a dubious task, but given the right package in return, it might be worth it.
Gurley has been a beast all year long, surpassing all his numbers from last year just halfway through this season.

— NFL Fantasy Football (@NFLfantasy) November 5, 2017
Don't look to far into the future or you might get shell shocked. The Rams have the most running back-unfriendly schedule the rest of the way. Houston and Minnesota are ranked second and first, New Orleans must have dug deep into the Louisiana voodoo as they are looking like a top tier defense, ranked 14th against the run. After that, Arizona, Philadelphia, Seattle, Tennessee are all ranked in the top 12. There's not one opponent in the team's last seven games in the fantasy season that has a poor run defense.
The Rams have been a great story and the offense has been incredible. Look for more Goff going forward however as the upcoming run defenses look to be about as much fun as the Upside Down in Stranger Things.

You are currently browsing the tag archive for the 'dog doo' tag.
DooGooders has been doing good with poo for more than 55 dog years. And we are committed to being the price leader in our crappy industry. Since 2008, we've only raised our weekly residential prices once and our PooPrints prices twice. As our expenses increased the past few years, we've decided it's time to make a modest price adjustment to some of our products and services.
While we feel these changes are small, we respect that you need to budget. Because of that, these changes won't go into effect until July 1, 2016. We've listed the price adjustments below. If you have any questions or concerns, please email the DooCrew at scooper@doogooders.com.
2015 was a huge growth year as the DooCrew marked more territory and expanded our PooPrints by DooGooders service. We're the exclusive PooPrints distributor for the territory above. If you see our logo on or near your city, we are likely the distributor for you. And if we can't help you, we are happy to point you to the eager PooPrints representative for your area.
With more than 3,000 registered dogs, DooGooders serves more than 100 properties in six states and is the authorized PooPrints distirbutor for South Dakota, Western North Dakota, extreme Southwest Minnesota, Sioux City, IA and parts of Wyoming and Montana.
We love dealing with crap, no matter where it is! If you're interested in learning more about PooPrints by DooGooders, just email scooper@doogooders.com!
The DooCrew is hitting the road this summer to check in on many of our PooPrints by DooGooders properties. We hope to have some fun lunches with property managers, share crappy stories and see how the program is going in your area.
Great Falls, MT – we'll be there soon!
Spring Cleans on sale now!
DooGooders is taking pre-orders for 2014 Spring Cleans! It's been a horrible winter and chances are, your lawn is going to look horrible when the snow finally melts. Let DooGooders take care of the dog poop this Spring.
Service is just $54.99 for the first 150 customers. Sign up here.
If you already have weekly, bi-weekly or bi-monthly service with DooGooders, you doo not need to order a Spring Clean.
If you had regular service and suspended for the winter, email scooper@doogooders.com and receive a $10 discount.
For the first time in more than 40 (dog) years in business, we are going to raise our service prices for our weekly and twice-weekly customers by 50 cents per week. This was a tough decision for the DooCrew, but we have to doo this because of the constant rise in fuel prices. In January 2009, the average price of gas was $1.78/gallon. Today, the average price is $3.64/gallon. DooGooders has made several cost-cutting moves over the years to help keep our prices low. But as you know, it's getting doggone expensive to drive. This new price will go into effect on April 1, 2013. We hope you understand the need for the new rates, and we promise to give you the same level of service since we began scooping poop in 2008!
Let's be honest. Weekly poop scoopin' works great for your home. But it doesn't work at apartments. Sure, most tenants pick up after themselves. But there's always a few who break the rules. And as soon as people see the DooCrew picking up the mess, most stop dooing the right thing and cleaning up after their pup. So you end up paying a lot of money and your grounds don't get better. They get worse. Finally, we have an answer to the madness by offering PooPrints dog DNA technology. We're proud to be the only company in the region licensed to offer PooPrints to keep apartment grounds cleaner than ever. And we have more than 300 pups registered in Sioux Falls with Midwest Property Services and Lloyd Companies. Starting at $29.95 per dog, this amazing DNA technology keeps your grounds clean by keeping dog owners responsible for picking up after their best friend. Finally, a way to keep your lawn clean and your costs down. Here's what tenants and property managers have to say about PooPrints.

Nurturing the soil biology is crucial if you want healthy soil that will support healthy plant growth, healthy animals and healthy people, and the absolute best way to get started with fueling your soil biology is with compost.
Compost has been a basic component of agriculture for at least 4500 years, with the first recorded documents being the clay tablets of Akkadian in 2700 B.C.! I would call this a time tested practice, and who would want to argue with an Akkadian?
Composting is a simple process that just takes a little dedication and practice. There are many different ways it can be done, and many opinions on what makes good compost. With a little help you will figure out what is best for your operation.
Now, you can manage soils without paying attention to soil biology as plants will take up nutrients in solution, but eventually your system will be compromised as your plants will get more and more reliant on you feeding them and less able to source nutrition on their own.
Composting is a tried and true strategy for taking advantage of the everyday things already present on your farm or property to charge up the biological engine of your soil, and ensure your plants get everything they need from the soil, without becoming reliant on external feeding.
The materials you have to compost, the quantities of those materials you have available, and your personal style and ambition will determine what type of composting you will undertake as well as the equipment you will need to get the job done.
Once you've assessed your situation and made your choice of system, you can start learning more about it and putting it into practice. Our e-book A Simple Guide To Starting Your Compost goes in-depth into each of these systems and more, and is the perfect resource to support you on your composting journey.
We Live and Breathe Composting and Soil Fertility!
We have been perfecting the art of farm-scale composting for the past three decades, and we now run workshops here at Chaos Springs to share what we have learned and help spread the word about how composting boosts your on-farm fertility. We have taught our Precise Composting Methods to hundreds of people over the years and we make our own organic compost using these methods.
Give us a call about getting some compost directly from us, or talk to us about organising a compost and soil fertility consultation on your farm or property.
Tell us your favourite tips for creating compost in the comments below - we would love to hear from you!

Check out my new 360 VR video of my trike flight up Glen Canyon. You can drag your viewpoint around with your mouse, use the cursor in the corner, or your finger on your cell phone. I have also tried it with my Samsung GearVR, and it looks pretty good, but I like the fullscreen on my cell phone or tablet the best. On newer phones, you can just tip or rotate the phone to change the view direction. It doesn't work on smart TV's.
WOW, this is amazing and I have to do this for myself. I flew from Page Airport to Marble Canyon above the upper ground. It is tottaly different experience under there !!
I tried Garmin Fusion before and dissapointed with it, because it takes forever to marge 2 clips together. And my Final Cut GoPro didn't work with t well. I would appreciate if you tell me what camera and software you used.
Gopro fusion, edited with adobe premiere.
I think 360 vr can take our flying videos to a whole new level by allowing the viewer to interact in a way that pulls you in. The wingtip shot is like a perfect formation flight. More to come.
Its a breathtaking video Jeff. I love to move the camera view to all directions.
Wow, that is really extraordinary! congratulations!
How is everything with you, I picked interest on you after going through your short profile and deemed it necessary to write you immediately. I have something very vital to disclose to you, but I found it difficult to express myself here, since it's a public site.Could you please get back to me on:(mrsstellaabudheir200@gmail.com ) for the full details.

Nigeria Assures On 30 Gigawatts Energy Target By 2030
Nigeria has pledged its deter mination to achieving the vision of 30 Gigawatts of energy by 2030.
President Muhammadu Buhari made the pledge at a discussion panel on Just Energy Transition at the recent U.S.-Africa Leaders Summit in Washington, USA.
He used the opportunity to outline the comprehensive Energy Transition Plan unfolded by his administration in response to the issues associated with climate change.
According to him, as part of the National Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Policy, Nigeria set the vision 30:30:30 which aims at achieving 30GW of electricity by 2030 with renewable energy contributing 30 per cent of the energy mix.
"In 2021, Nigeria became the first African country to develop a detailed Energy Transition Plan to tackle both energy poverty and climate change, and deliver Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 7 by 2030 and net-zero by 2060.
"Our Federal Executive Council approved the plan earlier this year and adopted it as a national policy."
Buhari told the summit that Nigeria was intending to eliminate the use of petrol/diesel generators by 2060 and therefore needed to deploy renewables, particularly solar, at an unprecedented scale.
"For instance, the Energy Transition Plan requires that 5.3 GW of Solar be deployed annually until 2060 to achieve our targets."
The President stressed that the Nigerian government had embarked on several reforms, one of the best in Africa, on mini-grid regulations as well as the integration of renewable energy into the national grid.
He disclosed some of the reforms which have positively impacted the energy sector in Nigeria.
"Our aggressive power sector reforms have resulted in cost-reflective tariffs in the power sector for the first time since privatization.
"Under the Nigeria Electrification Project, over four million people have been impacted through solar mini-grids and solar stand-alone systems. With respect to hydro, the Zungeru hydropower project is nearing completion and will add 700MW in capacity to the grid."
The Nigerian leader, however, called for considerable financial and technical support to achieve the desired results
"For instance, our analysis shows that delivering the Energy Transition Plan requires US$1.9 trillion spending up to 2060, including US$410 billion above business-as-usual spending.
"This additional financing requirement translates to a US$10 billion investment needed per annum. Between 2000 and 2020, just US$3 billion per year was invested in renewable energy in the whole of Africa.
"Consequently, the US$10 billion per year target of our Energy Transition Plan represents a significant scaling of current investment flows and we need support from the U.S. to mobilise the needed resources.
"It is important to note that for African countries, the cost of finance and perceived investment risk remains significantly higher than for developed economies despite vast improvements in stability and governance,'' he said.
For our clean energy market to scale up, he said Nigeria and more broadly Africa needed concessional, low-interest capital-led investments.
"Furthermore, we believe that the Nigeria Energy Transition Plan and the net-zero compliant investment pipeline we have developed is prime for a just energy transition partnership like the one offered to South Africa and, more recently, Indonesia.
'Crude Oil Theft: Buhari's Efforts Yielding Dividends'
'Buhari Targets 22,000 Megawatts Electricity By 2023'
The Lagos State Government has directed filling stations operating along major roads in the state to curtail their services to reduce traffic gridlock along the roads.
The move comes as fuel scarcity has persisted in the state, leading to the forming of long queues of vehicles along the road by the filling stations, despite claims of improved distribution of petroleum products by the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC).
The statement was disclosed by the Lagos State Commissioner for Transport, Frederic Oladeinde, who said the move serves to check the indiscriminate activities of motorists forming long queues in search of petrol.
The commissioner stated that major and independent petroleum marketers with filling stations sited along major highways and areas prone to traffic will not be allowed to operate beyond 4 pm and will not open earlier than 9 am until the situation improves.
According to Oladeinde, the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA), Vehicle Inspection Service (VIS), Transport Operations Compliance Unit (TOKU), and other law enforcement operatives have been asked to ensure the free flow of traffic in the state.
Reports say Oladeinde urged major and independent marketers operating across Lagos to comply with the directive to avoid sanctions.
President Muhammadu Buhari has not approved any increase in the price of petrol, the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Chief Timipre Sylva, said last weekend.
He stated in a statement in Abuja that the current increase in the pump price of petrol, which started on Thursday, was the handiwork of mischief makers and those planning to discredit the achievements of the president.
The pump price of petrol rose on Thursday from N179 in major marketers' filling stations to N199 per litre in Abuja and other northern states, while Lagos and neighbouring states raised their prices to N185 per litre.
"President Muhammadu Buhari has not approved any increase in the price of PMS or any other petroleum product for that matter.
"There is no reason for President Muhammadu Buhari to renege on his earlier promise not to approve any increase in the price of PMS at this time.
"Mr President is sensitive to the plight of the ordinary Nigerian and has said repeatedly that he understands the challenges of the ordinary Nigerian and would not want to cause untold hardship for the electorate.
"Government will not approve any increase of PMS secretly without due consultations with the relevant stakeholders.
"The President has not directed the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA) or any agency for that matter to increase the price of fuel. This is not the time for any price increase in the pump price of PMS," Sylva stated.
The minister noted; "I appeal to Nigerians to remain calm and law abiding as the government is working hard to bring normalcy to fuel supply and distribution in the country."
Meanwhile, the Major Oil Marketers Association of Nigeria (MOMAN) has said the present petrol queues being noticed across the country were caused by exceptional high demand and bottlenecks in the fuel distribution chain.
The association also said another major cause is the shortage and high (US dollar) cost of daughter vessels for ferrying products from mother vessels to depots along the coast.
It also blamed the situation on inadequate number of trucks to meet the demand to deliver product from depots to filling stations nationwide.
These high logistics and exchange rate costs continue to put pressure on prices at the pump, it said in a statement.
While sympathising with customers and Nigerians over the challenges, it said, over the past three months, staff & management of MOMAN companies have worked diligently at depots and filling stations to relieve the stress faced by customers through the Christmas and New year period.
Over the past three years, the majority of U.S. energy companies have avoided spending big to expand production in the aftermath of the 2020 oil crisis, prioritising returning more cash to shareholders in the form of dividends and share buybacks.
Most oil and gas companies have only announced small increases in their capital spending for the current year, and also plan to grow production modestly.
But this does mean that these companies won't try to capitalise on oil prices that remain at multi-year highs.
In its 2023 outlook, Energy Intelligence notes that global upstream capex will hit $485B in the current year, good for 12% Y/Y increase and a near 30% recovery from the 2020 trough.
The energy expert says that spending is unlikely to hit the $700 billion-plus level seen during the 2013-2014 peak in this decade, with most companies preferring to focus on the most advantaged "barrels'' i.e. lower cost, lower carbon projects with faster timelines. NOCs, large independents and western majors are returning to advantaged offshore plays including the Guyana Basin, Brazil, Gulf of Mexico, North Sea and West Africa–the regions also expected to drive the lion's share of non-OPEC growth.
A number of oil and gas majors have announced bigger-than-average capex hikes for 2023 and beyond. Last month, Chevron Corp. (NYSE: CVX) announced that FY 2023 capital spending budget will clock in at $17B, more than 25% from expected spending in 2022 and at the top end of its $15B-$17B medium-term range.
The company said that upstream capex includes more than $4B for Permian Basin development; ~$2B for other shale and tight assets and ~$2B to go into projects that lower carbon emissions or increase renewable fuels production capacity, more than double the 2022 budget.
Although Chevron's spending for 2023 will be considerably higher than capital spending in the 2020-21 pandemic years, it's still much lower than the $30B annual average of the 2012-19 period.
"Our capex budgets remain in line with prior guidance despite inflation," Chairman and CEO Mike Wirth said.
Chevron's peer ExxonMobil Corp. (NYSE: XOM) has not announced a drastic increase in spending, but has said that its capital spending for 2023 will be closer to the top end of its annual target of $20B-$25B, a level it expects to maintain through 2027.
Exxon says that more than 70% of its capital investments will be deployed in the U.S. Permian Basin, Guyana, Brazil and LNG projects across the globe.
These investments will help increase the company's upstream production by 500K boe/day to 4.2M boe/day by 2027. Exxon also unveiled plans to boost spending on lower emission projects by 15% through 2027 to ~$17B through 2027.
Exxon also plans to expand its stock buyback plan to $50B through 2024, including $15B in 2022 So, where will all that money come from? Exxon expects to "double earnings and cash flow potential" by 2027 compared to 2019, and also expects to deliver ~$9B in structural cost savings by year-end 2023 from 2019 levels.
Meanwhile, Canada's third-largest crude oil and natural gas producer Cenovus Energy (NYSE: CVE) has announced that it expects to spend C$4B-C$4.5B in FY 2023, higher than estimates of C$3.3B-C$3.7B for 2022, including ~C$2.8B of sustaining capital for maintaining base production and support operations.
Cenovus says it expects to direct C$1.2B-C$1.7B towards optimisation and growth, including construction of the West White Rose project in Atlantic Canada.
Cenovus has also guided for production of 800K-840K boe/day in the current year, an increase of more than 3% Y/Y, including oil sands production of 582K-642K boe/day and conventional output of 125K-140K boe/day.
Meanwhile, the company expects total downstream crude throughput to clock in at 610K-660K bbl/day, up nearly 28% Y/Y.
Back in June, Saudi Aramco revealed plans to keep raising capital expenditure until the mid-2020s as part of its strategy to grow oil production capacity to 12.3 million barrels per day by 2025 and to 13 million b/d by 2027.
To support production growth, Aramco plans to allocate capex by up to $50 billion, which will then increase from 2023 until 2025.
Brazil's oil and gas supermajor Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. or Petrobras (NYSE: PBR) has announced that it will increase 2023-2027 investments by about 15% to $78 billion over the company's 2022-2026 projected spending. Of the $78 billion planned for capex, 83% or $64 billion is earmarked for E&P activities while 67% of the E&P capex budget will go to pre-salt activities.
The company also plans to boost spending to reduce carbon emissions to ~6% of the total compared with 4% in the previous plan, and will see its decarbonisation fund more than double the current $248M.
Meanwhile, Brazilian mining giant Vale S.A.(NYSE: VALE) has announced plans to increase capex to US$6bn in 2023 from US$5.5bn in 2022 while exploration expenses are expected to reach US$350mn in 2026 compared to $180 million for 2022.
Vale says it expects iron production to only increase slightly to 320 million tonnes in 2023 compared to 310 million tonnes in the current year, but expects production to exceed 360 million tonnes by 2030.
Meanwhile, copper production is expected to jump to 335K-370K tons in 2023 from – 260K tons this year while nickel production is expected to exceed 300K tonnes from ~180K tons in 2022.

Over 4,000 Rivers West Women Unite For Fubara


West Indies Women moved closer to the semifinal round of the ICC Women's World T20 Tournament with a crushing 49-run victory over Bangladesh Women at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai this morning.
Batting first on winning the toss, West Indies Women made 148 with Barbadian Hayley Matthews top-scoring with 41 made off 42 balls with four boundaries. Captain Stafanie Taylor who also opened, made 40 from 41 balls with two boundaries and a six.
But the momentum in the innings came from Deandra Dottin, batting at number four, who made a quick-fire 24 off only 11 deliveries while striking two boundaries. Stacy Ann King contributed 20 in 15 balls.
In response the Bangladesh Women lost wickets steadily throughout their innings and were eventually dismissed in the penultimate over for 99. Wicketkeeper/batter Nigar Sultana top-scored with a run-a-ball 27.

Written by Joydeep Bose | Edited by Sohini Goswami, Hindustan Times, New Delhi
Piyush Goyal, the Union minister of commerce and industry, said on Sunday that India is on its way to hitting a historic high on exports of goods and services this year. Assuring that the economy that suffered due to the Covid-19 pandemic will soon be back on track, the minister said India has been witnessing a constant growth in foreign direct investment (FDI) for the past seven years.
"We're back in business," said Goyal, who also holds the portfolios for textiles, consumer affairs, and food and public distribution, while speaking at an event in Delhi's Pragati Maidan.
He was addressing the launch of the 40th India International Trade Fair in the national capital. The event will continue till November 27.
"Collectively, we are on the track for a historical high on exports of goods and services in the current year," he said, adding, "India has been witnessing constant growth for the last seven years on FDI".
Elaborating further on the positive outlook for India's businesses, Goyal said, "Today's launch of this trade fair reflects the five 'sutras' of India – economy, exports, infrastructure, demand, and diversity."
The Union minister said that with the launch of the 40th India International Trade Fair, one of the finest and largest convention centres made in the country will arrive at the Pragati maidan complex, along with two other exhibition halls. "'Make in India, make for the world' isn't just a slogan," he added, "It implies assurance, thoughts, and trust in ourselves."
On Saturday, World Economic Forum president Borge Brende highlighted India's efforts towards strengthening the fight against Covid-19 and the economic reforms undertaken in the country while speaking to Prime Minister Narendra Modi at an event. Calling India the "fastest-growing among the large economies," Brende extended his greetings on the country's 75 years of independence from colonial rule. He said he expected a "two-digit growth" the next year while India prepares for its G20 presidency.

Office cleaning is a daily necessity, but there are times when you want your offices to stand for who your company is, and to be the face that impresses visitors, guests and employees alike. Do you remember that first day back to school after the cleaners had been alone in the halls for the whole summer? The sparkle of the staircase, the glimmer of the entrance hall – it inspired, didn't it?
Maybe you're appealing for investors, or maybe you're celebrating your first decade as a successful business – give your office a sparkle clean to let it know how much it means to you, and give your public something impressive to look at. Just like our homes, which we clean daily or weekly, there are few of us who can resist a spring clean or a good pre-Christmas deep clean; the same applies to offices.
After your daily office cleaning team has been in, you arrive at work and everything is back in its place, the carpets are cleaner, your keyboard has been given the once over and your bin is empty… you're in an effective workplace, motivated and ready to do your job.
But after time, despite rigorous daily office cleaning, offices start to feel the wear and tear of daily life, so, like the rest of us, they need a little pick me up. Enter the sparkle clean. A sparkle clean goes deep; it leaves no surface untouched, and each of those surfaces is given the detailing of its life: floors and skirting boards are gone at with a small brush to remove any grimy build-up from a mop slopping water at it every day. Computers get a behind-and-under cleaning, getting rid of the dust build-up in the fan covers and the bunnies that linger at the back of the computer units. Cables are cleaned and reorganised, monitors are wiped thoroughly to remove fingerprints – as are stainless steel surfaces, and glass walls and windows. Dirt that has worked its way deep into carpets is removed, restoring your carpets to their former glory.
The aim of the sparkle clean is to inject newness and luxury back into your workspace – to motivate your employees and astound your visiting clients. Every surface is left with a clean sparkle that reminds you of the first day you moved your company into the offices. Or if your office has grown from a tiny, one-man business it may never have had such an amazing clean because your focus has always been on the work and not on the environment. You owe it to yourself to throw some magic back into your office.
Everyone benefits from a sparkle clean.
What's the difference between Business writing and Academic writing? Business Proposal writing is concrete – it sticks to the facts. Academic writing is more abstract – it discusses ideas and concepts. You need to be aware of this difference especially when writing the introduction section to your Business Proposals.
Another skill is getting the right balance, so your bid appeals to the evaluators head (logic) and also their heart (emotions). The first place you must do this is in the Introduction chapter. If this section falls flat, do you think the reader will continue looking at the rest? Here's how to get around this and give your Business Proposal a little sparkle.
Before you start writing, ask yourself what is the purpose of the Introduction?
Think of the introduction as a 'credibility statement'. Use this section to describe your professional and organizational qualifications and then establish the significance of your core concepts. The introduction also sets the tone of your proposal. For novice writers, the orientation is often "Me Me Me", while more successful Proposal Writers take a "You You You" perspective. Look back at some recent Proposals you've submitted. It is all about you or about your client and their needs?
Establish who you are? The client knows your name as it's on the cover sheet but you need to take this further; share something the reader cannot forget and makes you stand out. You want them to remember you, right?
Describe your goals? We also know that your end goal is to get funding, that's a given. But what beliefs and core values underpin your business? Is there some specific set of goals that drive your business? Use these to paint a picture for the readers so they understand why you're in business and how they will benefit from working with you.
Establish your credibility? You can do this in several ways. One is by using social proof such as sharing endorsements, recommendations and other ways you are respected in the business community. These all help to position you as a trusted source. The assumption is that if you've worked with Big Client, and others respect this firm, then the client should be safe if they make the same decision.
Discuss the Problem Statement? What this means is that you've read the Request For Proposal, spoken to others in the business community, and determined what is the 'real' underlying problem. For different reasons, the Request For Proposal writers may not be able to say in black and white terms why they need this solution or service. If you've being working with this client for a while, you should have some inside knowledge on what are the real pain points. Now, does your Business Proposal really address these issues and get to the heart of the matter?

In early 2014, France had over 20,000 "centenarians" (persons aged 100 or over), most of them women. Their increasing numbers and the appearance of a new age group, the "super-centenarians," aged 110 or over, raise once again the question of the limit of human longevity.
At the end of the eighteenth century, Buffon estimated that a healthy man who had never suffered an accident or illness could live for a hundred years but no longer. Centenarians were extremely rare. However, thanks to improved living conditions and progress in medicine, a few individuals began to reach the ages of 110 and even 115, and the hypothesized maximum life span was revised to 110 and then to 120 years. In 1995, this theoretical limit was pushed even further back when Jeanne Calment a Frenchwoman, celebrated her 120th birthday. When she died in 1997 at age 122, she set a new record for human longevity.
Most centenarians are women
At these advanced ages, women are by far the majority. They account for 90 % of centenarians in France in 2014. On 1 January 2014, 17,602 of the 20,452 centenarians living in metropolitan France were women.
A new "super-centenarian" age group
The probability of living to age 100 is higher now than ever before. According to recent estimates, there may well be 200,000 centenarians in France by 2060, compared with more than 20,000 in 2014 and only a hundred or so in 1900. Since 1980, a new "super-centenarian" age group has become a statistical reality.It includes people over 110 years of age.
Is there a maximum human lifespan?
Until the 1970s, it was generally agreed that the progress achieved since the eighteenth century had simply brought the mean length of life closer to the maximum possible human lifespan (120 years), which was considered to be a fixed biological boundary. Today, some scientists do not rule out the possibility of human beings living up to age150 or even more, if progress in our knowledge of genetics and ageing enables us to slow down or even stop the biological processes involved. But for now, the rise in maximum age at death seems linked above all to the fact that more people are living to very old ages; there is no evidence that a limit to the human life span is being pushed back. As INED demographer Jacques Vallin put it in 2011: "Is there a limit to the length of human life?".

Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and set aside.
Rinse the asparagus and trim off woody end pieces. Spread out in a thin layer on top of the prepared sheet.
Spray the asparagus lightly with a coat of olive oil spray. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, garlic, and parmesan cheese. Use your hands to mix the asparagus with all of the ingredients, then lay out into an even layer again. Spray with one more light coat of olive oil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8 minutes. Remove from oven and serve immediately. Enjoy!
Preheat oven to 190C. Grease a 26cm x 20cm x 6cm baking dish. Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat.
Cook the onion for 5 mins or until soft and lightly golden. Add the garlic and cook for 1 min. Add pumpkin, lentils and stock. Reserve 1 cup of the passata and stir the remaining passata into the pumpkin mixture. Cover and bring to the boil. Reduce heat slightly and cook, covered, for 20 mins or until the pumpkin is tender and the mixture is thick. Transfer to a large bowl to cool slightly, then refrigerate until cold. Meanwhile, use a fork to mash the ricotta in a bowl. Stir in nutmeg. Season.
Line the base of the prepared dish with a layer of lasagne sheets. Spread over half the pumpkin mixture, then top with another layer of lasagne sheets. Sprinkle with the ricotta mixture and use damp fingertips to spread evenly. Top with silverbeet, then cover with another layer of lasagne sheets.
Spread over the remaining pumpkin mixture then top with remaining lasagna sheets. Spread over the reserved passata to completely cover. Sprinkle with cheddar. Bake for 45 minutes until cooked through.
To boil beetroot: Wash and trim the beetroot, but do not peel. Place the beetroot in a large saucepan and cover with 2cm of water. Bring to the boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low, cover and simmer until just tender, about 30 to 40 minutes depending on size.
Drain, and allow the beetroot to cool until you are able to handle them. Peel and cut into slices or wedges to serve straightaway, or cool to room temperature and refrigerate until using.
Melt the butter in a large pan with the olive oil. Fry the fish fillets on each side for 3-4 minutes until just tender. Serve with the beetroot salsa.
Melt the butter in a heavy skillet set over high heat. Add the mushrooms, sprinkle with salt and pepper and cook until nice and golden brown on all sides.
Add zucchinis, season wit salt and pepper and continue cooking until just softened, about 2-3 minutes.
Return mushrooms to the skillet, add parsley, stir to combine and serve.
A simple, light dish with any protein.
First prepare the broadbeans by placing them into a pot of salted boiling water. Return the water to a boil, reduce heat, cover and allow the beans to simmer for 4-5 minutes. Drain the beans, reserving ½ cup of the water to be used later.
Place the beans and all other ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth.
Bake in the preheated oven until browned, 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally in order to brown evenly. Remove from oven and serve immediately.
Beautiful accompaniment to fish, chicken or beef.
