| Oil Loses More Than $4 as Fuel Demand Declines, closes at 126$ per barrel | | 2008-05-29 21:32:00 | | Crude oil was little changed in New York after falling more than $4 a barrel yesterday, the biggest drop since March, on signs that record prices will prompt U.S. consumers to reduce fuel purchases.Fuel consumption averaged 20.5 million barrels a day in the four weeks ended May 23, down 0.7 percent from a year earlier, the Energy Department said yesterday. The dollar reached a three-month high against the yen as U.S. stocks gained, brightening the economic outlook of the world's biggest energy consuming country and diminishing oil's appeal as a hedge. Crude oil for July delivery fell 29 cents, or 0.2 percent, to $126.33 a barrel at 9 a.m. Sydney time in after-hours trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Yesterday, oil plunged $4.41, or 3.4 percent, to settle at $126.62 a barrel, the lowest close since May 16. It was the biggest drop since March 31. Futures reached a record $135.09 on May 22.

| | | Oil prices close at nearly $135 a barrel | | 2008-05-21 23:45:00 | | Oil prices closed yesterday at nearly $135 a barrel, and there still has barely been a peep from President George W. Bush about the crisis. A gallon of regular gas may soon surpass $4, making it more expensive to buy a gallon of gas than a gallon of milk. Did you ever think this day would come?What do you think? Is the government doing enough to help Americans deal with this absurd price for gas, or do you think their hands are tied? Share your comments by posting right here.

| | This Week in Baseball: In Which We Shoot Fish in a Barrel | | 2008-05-07 07:03:00 | | Ah, the fine art of the “non-apology apology.” It’s a careful tight rope balancing act of flatly denying any rumors involving you while simultaneously addressing them compassionately, thereby reducing the perception that you’re hiding guiltily from the public eye. Behold, Rickey’s in depth analysis of Roger Clemens’ recent statement made to the Houston Chronicle:“I know that many people want to know what I have to say about the recent articles in the media.”Well no, not particularly, but Rickey’s been running low on blogging material lately, so sure Raj—let ‘er rip. What say you of the recent allegations of pederasty swirling around you?“Even though these articles contain many false accusations and mistakes, I need to say that I have made mistakes in my personal life for which I am sorry.”For those keeping score at home, that’s as close as Clemens ever comes to making an actual apology.

| | Oil Price is heading towards $200 per barrel | | 2008-04-29 17:56:00 | | The president of OPEC Chakib Khelil has warned, that the price of oil is going to reach $200 rank per barrel, soon, encouraged by market speculations, weak dollar, geopolitical tensions and ever high demand from new emerging economies such as China and India. Strike in Scottish refinery Grangemouth and problems in ExxonMobil's oil plants in Nigeria are additionally press the situation.He said, that there is no shortage of oil on the market, yet the price is constantly rising.Oil producing countries and oil corporations are profiteering massively, due to the record oil prices.On the contrary, every day life of world population is getting more and more expensive, due to ever increasing energy prices. Absolutely all products and services are strongly effected by ever rising record oil/energy prices.

| | Bio-based Resins grow with the cost of the barrel of oil | | 2008-04-13 11:48:51 | | A few years back, when a barrel of oil cost less than $50 (USD), the use of soybean oil and corn ethanol in resins for composites manufacturing was intriguing, interesting and environmentally responsible, but not an economic or resource imperative. That is rapidly changing. The cost of a barrel of oil recently raced past $110 [...] | | By: Bio-Polym Blog | | |
| | Barrel Babies (Of Trinidad & Tobago) | | 2008-03-25 00:00:00 | | Born into poverty, living in strife...
These poor children have no kind of life.
Left by their parents, in someone else's care.
Gone abroad to find a better life there.
Work abroad and sacrifice, their parents believe,
But hurting their kids is all they achieve.
To the kids they deserted, they send lots of clothes,
Barrels full of toys, and what else, God alone knows.
These children think they're lucky to get all these toys,
But soon realise that these bring no lasting joys.
They think they are happy until they realise,
They would much prefer looking into their parents' eyes.
They live without their Mothers' tender care,
What it is to be loved , they are not aware.
My heart goes out to Jean and little Darryl..

| | Oil Hits All-Time High: $103 Per Barrel | | 2008-03-01 06:22:00 | | The weakness of the U.S. dollar and the possibility of lower interest rates have drawn fresh investment to the oil market, driving the price of oil to over $103 per barrel for the first time.An energy analyst said such conditions tend to drive investment away from currency and toward commodities, such as oil, which retain an intrinsic value while currency markets fluctuate. He said, however, that a bubble is emerging.The analyst, Victor Shum of Purvin & Gertz, said investors are ignoring market fundamentals that indicate steady increases in U.S. crude oil supply, while forecasters predict slower growth in oil demand due to the stagnant economy.

| | Oil tops $103 a barrel | | 2008-02-29 07:08:00 | | Oil prices surpassed $103 a barrel for the first time on Friday as persistent weakness in the US dollar and the prospect of lower interest rates attracted fresh money to the oil market. Prices were supported by comments on Thursday from Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, who said the American economy is not immediately threatened with stagflation, a combination of economic weakness and rising inflation. Investors chose to see the comments as confirmation of their beliefs that the Fed will continue cutting interest rates to try to shore up the economy. Lower US interest rates tend to weaken the dollar, and crude futures offer a hedge against a falling dollar. ``Due to the weakening dollar and the rising fear of inflation, investors have put money into commodities, oil included,'' said Victor Shum, an energy analyst with Purvin & Gertz in Singapore. ``Commodities, as tangible assets, do not face as much inflationary threat as opposed to holding a currency,'' Shum s | | By: Indian stock markets | | |

| | Crude oil prices break through $100 a barrel barrier | | 2008-01-02 13:17:00 | | US crude oil prices hit the psychological barrier of $100 a barrel for the first time today.Surging economies in China and India reliant on oil and gasoline sent prices soaring last year, while tensions in oil producing nations such as Nigeria and Iran have increasingly made investors nervous. Fresh outbreaks of violence in Nigeria helped give crude the final push over $100 (£50.50). Bands of armed men invaded Port Harcourt, the centre of Nigeria's oil industry yesterday, attacking two police stations and raiding a hotel lobby. The fact that several Mexican oil export ports were closed due to rough weather added to the gains, as did a report that the producers' cartel Opec may not be able to meet its share of global oil demand by 2024. Light, sweet crude for January delivery shot up by $4.02 to $100 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange, before slipping back to $99.15.

| | | Dianne Feinstein is a Big Fat Pig: Congressional Pork-barrel Spending/ Earmarks are Out of Control under Nancy Pelosi | | 2007-09-05 07:13:05 | | While the Democrats promised to clean up Congress, Nancy Pelosi and her ilk are letting the American people down miserably. Still, the MSM refuses to inform the public how corrupt the Democrats are. Instead, they would rather focus on a bathroom incident as the Democrats destroy our treasury worse than the Republicans ever did.If we review the numbers, the amount of pork-barrel spending and earmarks are out of control. Not only does Dianne Feinstein funnel money to her husband’s business with Iraq War funds, she spends more of our money than any other Congressman. Senator Dianne Feinstein raked in $382.3 Million, Rep. Jack Murtha, D-Pa., ate away at $186 Million, Barbara Boxer tore her “fair share” of $152.5 Million, Nancy Pelosi used her good ethics to spend $141.3 Million, Rep. David Obey, D-Wis. rang up $96 Million, and House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, D-Md., brought in $85.5 Million.

| | The Philippines' Political Clans Control Billions in Pork Barrel! | | 2007-07-27 07:24:40 | | Saw this article on pork barrel and the Philippines' political families a few days ago. Could be an interesting read. :)From GMANews.TV:A senator is entitled to P200 million in pork barrel, a congressman P70 million. Provincial governors and city and municipal mayors have access to the Internal Revenue Allotment, the local governments’ share from national taxes collected.Many political families whose members hold national and local posts thus can lay their hands on billions of pesos in taxpayers’ money.Twenty political families with many incumbent government officials elected last May have in their influence a total of close to P20 billion for this year.At least nine families have access and influence over more than P1 billion each in government funds for 2007 alone, i.e., the Marañons of Negros Occidental, the Plazas of Agusan del Sur, the Garcias of Cebu, the Garin-Cari-Petilla clan of Iloilo and Leyte, the Espinos of Pangasinan, the Zubiris of Bukidnon, the Maliksis of Cavite, | | By: The AnitoKid Chronikos | | |
