Russell Grant's Daily Horoscopes: Friday 6th August 2010

Weekly HoroscopesHoroscopes
  .
Aries (Mar21/Apr20) You hit a complete dead end with a project which had been going well. Perhaps too well as all of a sudden everything has gone pear shaped. There must be a way through to the other side and you're determined to find the solution. With each passing minute a deadline gets closer. It could take you some hours before you start moving forward again but persevere and you will get there. Expect progress to be slow but don't give up.
 .
Taurus (Apr21/May21) The gruelling pace of the day is starting to play on your nerves, fray your temper and affect your health. It might feel as if you've been working on a certain job forever and people are expecting more and more from you. It is starting to get tough and all you can do is continue to give it your best. Keep telling yourself, the situation cannot go on for much longer. You also need to tell a colleague they won't get the job done any quicker by shouting!
 .
Gemini (May22/June21) In an important meeting be concise and communicate all important features in a short space of time. Don't make any important or hasty decisions as there may be hidden pitfalls ahead. People will distract you and when you're trying to deal with a number of matters at once it will be easy to make mistakes. If you haven't been happy with a business or financial arrangements, things should take a turn for the better late in the day.
 .
Cancer (June22/July23) To try and speed things up you might be tempted to cut a few corners but is this wise? Currently you have a lot on your plate; the end is not in sight. You're acutely aware of all the things you have to do and how it looks as if you aren't going to make it especially if you're working to a deadline. Why not delegate? There is someone who is willing to help you and accepting their assistance will keep the overall quality of your work to a high standard.
 .
Leo (July24/Aug23) A contentious situation can be resolved without you having to take sides or commit yourself either way. Getting people to open up and talk about their feelings helps them reach a compromise without involving you any further. If you work in the communication or information sectors, activities will be highly stimulating. Your range of contact with people in your immediate surroundings will broaden considerably.
 .
Virgo (Aug24/Sept23) If you do your research well you stand a very good chance of impressing those who matter. Keep things simple. Complicated procedures might seem like child's play to you but for others to be able to understand, you need to describe them in layman's terms. If you get an early start on a special project you will be able to get steps ahead of competitors. A neighbour shares a piece of exciting history with you this evening.
 .
Libra (Sept24/Oct23) Social and other distractions make it hard for you to stick to your own plans. There's a lot of good humour and high spirits in the air; even your more mature friends and colleagues are surprisingly playful. A deal you were offered and recently turned down has gone to someone you never thought would have been interested. A new exercise routine may not seem particularly taxing but you will notice an increase in fitness.
 .
Scorpio (Oct24/Nov22) Something you're involved in now will be one of the most exciting things in your entire life. Others are pushing you to take a back seat; how can they expect this when you want to be one hundred per cent involved? The first thing you need do is make sure you aren't exaggerating intensely personal ambitions and pushing others away. Just as you don't want to miss out on anything, be certain others too are equally involved and don't feel left out.
 .
Sagittarius (Nov23/Dec21) No challenge is too great or daunting for you to tackle. A materialistic minded friend won't understand how it isn't the money or perks you might get out of this that spurs you on. A major incentive is the emotional and spiritual satisfaction through your involvement in an exciting enterprise. With your help an innovative scheme will be turned into a huge success. If the idea doesn't appeal to everyone, it would be better they didn't get involved than make a half hearted attempt to join in.
 .
Capricorn (Dec22/Jan20) Next time you do a similar job to what you're doing today you are determined to go a very different way about it! Despite having problems working with certain people you will continue to exercise as much tact and diplomacy as possible. This time next week you could be mixing with a new circle and the last thing you want to do is cause dissension now. Especially when you are well aware the situation is only temporary.
 .
Aquarius (Jan21/Feb19) It could be hard to shake off the solitary mood which starts early on and shadows you most of the day. The cause of your dull spirits could be some news that disappoints or upsets you. Or it could be you will discover you've been deceived by someone you had put a lot of trust in. Prospects will seem brighter at the very end of the day when it will turn out you aren't the only one to feel this way. Try to arrange a fairly relaxed schedule for the evening.
 .
Pisces (Feb20/Mar20) Someone you work with proves extremely helpful to you; you will be glad of their kindness and sensitivity. This will not only keep you on the right path when it comes to a difficult job you're working on but it will also strengthen friendships within the workplace. You feel a stronger incentive to realise your objectives now you know others share your aims and are ready to back you all the way.
stopping you from seeing a friend! What bugs you most is someone's forceful nature. Anyone who tries to push you into agreeing with them when you don't is unlikely to remain a part of your life much longer.

Goldbug 100 - BP (BP.L) - President Obama & the Media scaremongering?

Earlier I read an article in doing our investigation that there is a natural leakage of gas and oil in the Gulf of Mexico and twittered a link to the page at the time. I tried to locate it today and found this on Google


Global Marine Oil Pollution Information Gateway • Facts • Natural ...


U.S. Minerals Management Service (MMS): Natural oil and gas seepage in the coastal areas ... U.S. NASA: Tons of oil seep into the Gulf of Mexico each year. ...
oils.gpa.unep.org/facts/natural-sources.htm - Cached - Similar

Crude oil and natural gas seeps naturally out of fissures in the ocean seabed and eroding sedimentary rock. These seeps are natural springs where liquid and gaseous hydrocarbons leak out of the ground (like springs that ooze oil and gas instead of water). Whereas freshwater springs are fed by underground pools of water, oil and gas seeps are fed by natural underground accumulations of oil and natural gas (see USGS illustration). Natural oil seeps are used in identifying potential petroleum reserves. As pointed out by the National Research Council (NRC) of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences, "natural oil seeps contribute the highest amount of oil to the marine environment, accounting for 46 per cent of the annual load to the world's oceans. -- Although they are entirely natural, these seeps significantly alter the nature of nearby marine environments. For this reason, they serve as natural laboratories where researchers can learn how marine organisms adapt over generations of chemical exposure. Seeps illustrate how dramatically animal and plant population levels can change with exposure to ocean petroleum".

NOAA describe a natural seepage area in California: "One of the best-known areas where this happens is Coal Oil Point along the California Coast near Santa Barbara. An estimated 2,000 to 3,000 gallons of crude oil is released naturally from the ocean bottom every day just a few miles offshore from this beach". (730,000 to 1,095,000 gallons a year - believe th figure mentioned for the Gulf was 5,000,000 gallons a year but checking this fact)

BP's Gulf Oil Leak Ranks as World's Worst Caused by an Accident ...

3 Aug 2010 ... BP Plc 's crippled Macondo oil well spewed 4.1 million barrels of ... us to get a decent estimate to figure how much oil is coming out, ...
www.bloomberg.com/.../bp-s-gulf-of-mexico-oil-spill-ranks-as-world-s-worst-caused-by-an-accident.html - Cached

Aug. 3 (Bloomberg) -- Haag Sherman, chief investment officer of Salient Partners LP, discusses the outlook for BP Plc's efforts to raise funds to pay compensation for the Gulf of Mexico oil spill and the company's agreement to sell fields in Colombia to Ecopetrol SA and Talisman Energy Inc. for $1.9 billion in cash. Sherman speaks with Scarlet Fu on Bloomberg Television’s “In the Loop With Betty Liu.” (Source: Bloomberg) 

BP Plc’s crippled Macondo oil well spewed 4.1 million barrels of crude into the Gulf of Mexico during the 87 days before it was capped, a team of scientists said, making it the world’s largest accidental offshore spill. 

BP siphoned off an additional 800,000 barrels from when the well exploded on April 20 to when it was capped on July 15, the U.S. government-appointed group said yesterday in its latest estimate of the worst oil spill in U.S. history. 

The Macondo spill exceeds the 3.3 million barrels that the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences estimated leaked from Mexico’s Ixtoc-1 well in the Bay of Campeche (Mentioned in th article that I was looking for*) after a blowout in 1979. The world’s worst spill was in the 1991 Persian Gulf War when retreating Iraqi forces opened oil pumps, causing the release of 6 million barrels, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. 

“The number should be thought of as our best estimate,” Ira Leifer, a University of California, Santa Barbara researcher and one of the scientists on the team appointed by the U.S. Energy Department, said in a telephone interview yesterday. 

* Will publish here if and when I find


The bottom line is that the BP oil spill according to Bloomberg was 4.100.000 barrels and at Coal Oil Point along the California Coast near Santa Barbara. An estimated 2,000 to 3,000 gallons of crude oil is released naturally from the ocean bottom every day just a few miles offshore from this beach but we do not see the American President ranting and raving every day on television about this do we.

We thought that America was a democracy - that you were innocent until proved guilty but that does not seem to have been the case to date with BP

The President looked pleased yesterday, his birthday with the news from BP. Had he bothered to do his research earlier and read this article he would not have been suprised at nature taking its course would he?


the impartial British Press said Political and Media scaremongering
 
It is reported the sale at BP gas stations have fallen 40% during the scaremongering.  It is reported that there are many spotless beaches lacking tourists due to the scaremongering, but the President has said that BP will cover the costs - not the scaremongers!
 
It was irresponsible reporting on the part of Bloomberg television to show Tony Hayward with an untasteful editing reporting "I don´t know. I wan´t there. I don´t know............" It is a great pity that Howard Hughes was not sat in Tony Haywards seat in front of Congress on that day.
 
The sad thing about this is that the scaremongering has become paramount not the loss of life due to the accident
