Liquids-Rich Companies Will Weather the Dry Spell: Luc Mageau
2012-02-03 00:00:00 The Energy Report: With Brent Crude trading at about US$110 per barrel (bbl) and natural gas futures trading at 10-year lows, are you leaning more heavily toward oily names than you did in 2011? Luc Mageau: Absolutely. In fact, although gas prices have been reduced to around the $2.50 level, it still seems like the picture could get worse before it gets better. Current natural gas storage is at ~3.5 trillion cubic feet (Tcf); that’s a full 0.4 Tcf fuller than an average winter. The reason we have such a glut of gas is the winter has not been co-operating. Basically, we rely on winter to post the bulk of the withdrawals throughout any given year?in the last . . . → Read More: Liquids-Rich Companies Will Weather the Dry Spell: Luc Mageau

She is working in a project which she describes like this:The Brontë Weather Project is a year long research residency based at The Brontë Parsonage Museum in Haworth and will run from September 2011. During the residency I will be studying the local weather patterns at Haworth and also reading texts by the Brontës to see how they were influenced and inspired by the weather.You can follow the project on this blog. So far, the last published post talks about the (in)famous 1850 Babbage report.

Cold weather biking: Essentials for riding as temps drop and light becomes
2011-11-18 14:05:00 As I read this post by another Chicago Now blogger regarding indoor bike alternatives, I thought: “Yeah! I agree with all that stuff. Except for taking my cycling inside.” I’ve been a fair weather biker for years, usually May thru October, but this year I’m going the distance. You can imagine that this got me... Read more »

Cold Weather ? Hot Profits!
2011-10-26 17:44:00 The crisp smell of autumn leaves, the chill in the air, and pumpkins, and turkey and stuffing, are all leading indicators that once again old man winter’s wrath will be here very soon. In fact, winter 2011-2012 is predicted to be tough sledding for much of the nation, and the world. Last year was no picnic either … Across many parts of the U.S., it was the coldest winter in three decades. The Eastern seaboard plunged to a record -50F with most weather records broken. Snowstorms shattered New York City in December 2010 and January 2011 to become the snowiest January ever recorded. Now, many forecasters are predicting 2011-2012 could be even worse!

Fair Weather Feminist
2011-05-06 03:52:00 "Shame on you," is what I hear Gloria Steinem saying to me as she tsks tsks away. I am a feminist, loud and proud. I speak up, I have an opinion, and I'm not afraid to use it. I credit my older sister/hero with exposing me to feminist ideals as a young girl. She went away to college when I was just seven and I grew up admiring her ideals, and disdaining her hairy legs. For criminy's sake, I named my blog after an early feminist icon. My feminist street cred is intact. ...
What's Worse: 2011 Chicago Baseball or 2011 Chicago Weather?
2011-05-05 19:40:00 Any time anyone from my hometown talks about how Chicago is the greatest city in the world, the first dissenting retort you'll hear is "but what about those long, harsh, brutal winters?" Fair point, especially since we've had a whooping three days of 70+ degrees in 2011. ('09 had 11 by this point, last year had 14, the average is ten), and even though it's Cinco de Mayo, this week felt an awful lot like winter at times. The other main negative stereotype against Chicago (surprisingly, it's not the obesity rate, people usually save the fat jokes for Milwaukee first, and Houston second) is it's pathetic track record in MLB history. Prior to the 2005 World Series win by...

No Matter The Weather...
2011-03-05 19:26:00 Today is another one of those days... windy... bitterly cold... snow flurries... and last night there was a thunder storm. If you've been following me for any length of time, you already know that I have a "more than" full-time job, working (at minimum) 50 hours each week. I mention this for a very specific reason: I worked last night and, afterward, as I was running - at midnight - from point A to point B, I stepped into a large, splashy puddle. In the bone chilling night air. It. Was. Awful. My socks were immediately drenched. And it instantly made me think of all of the homeless people on the streets who aren't lucky enough to go someplace warm...

We?re already at $100 oil? Why the oft-quoted price in the media is almost useless now. A stock that generates neither capital gains nor dividends? but always generates high interest.

DirecTV ? A Fair Weather Friend?
2011-01-19 02:25:00 Several months ago my wife and I made the decision that we were fed up with Cable TV.

Of course Mongolia could curb their problem if they permitted the export of canned mutton, but ...

5 Ways to Keep Feet Pretty Despite the Weather
2011-01-12 05:02:00 Pretty feet are a year-round must! While a chipped manicure may hurt you in the board room, a bad pedicure, or lack thereof, is more likely to hinder you in the bedroom. After all, there's nothing sexy about funky feet, especially when cooler weather hits, skin dries up, and said feet start scratching the sheets as you slip between them. Here's my go to guide for keeping your toes oh-so-prett-y no matter the season. At Home Maintenance Between spa pedicures, maintain pretty feet with exfoliation and hydration. Skip the scary at-home razors (you know the kind most salons aren't even supposed to be using) and opt instead for Microplane's Foot File; $14.95 and up at microplane.com. This best in class implement...

Melty the Snowman by Fred and Friends puts your winter buddy's leftover components to good use.
Cold Weather Style: Must-have winter lip balm
2011-01-10 15:30:00 When I went to Mexico last month, I hardly did any shopping. I picked up a fun headband and some jewelry, but spent most of my time ocean side, margarita in hand. I went to a drug store one day, and of course, perused the beauty aisle. I didn't see anything out of the ordinary, until I spotted a tube of Labello, which is a cult European lip balm that my colleague Michael had told me about.I bought nearly every flavor, and now totally understand the hype. Labello is basically a less watered-down version of Nivea. (They're both owned by the same company.) It keeps lips super-moisturized and so smooth, even in these temperatures and windy weather. I think there...
Cold Weather Style: A chic and easy way to dress up your coat
2011-01-05 15:30:00 This weekend, I was reading The Stye Scout, a London street style blog, and I spotted the below photo of a girl wearing a leather belt over her winter coat. For bundled up Chicagoans, coats are one of the main signs of your personal style all winter long. I think this is a simple and fashionable way to make your winter coat a bit less uniform.I tried to pull off the style on Monday but couldn't find the right belt to wear with my faux fur coat. I definitely plan to track one down before the season is over. What do you think? Would you wear this look? Have another solution to beat the coat boredom blues?Image via StyleScout.Blogspot.com...

I flew to Seattle through Frankfurt, just after the (previous) big snow storm subsided and missing the storms that most travelers in the US had to endure. On my way back, I ...
Letter to the Editor- Magnus of Oslo "This is Not Viking Weather!"
2010-12-20 05:36:00 That's why I'm urging the Minnesota football team to stop using the word 'Vikings', immediately. It insinuates that Vikings are ruthless barbarians; pagans so engulfed in their wantoness that not even the cold can cool their desires.

Cold-weather reads from 9 famous local readers
2010-11-05 21:34:00 By Geoff GeorgeFor RedEyeSo, you're sick of "Real Housewives" spin-offs, and you already watched your friend's collection of "Mad Men" DVDs--twice. As Chicago temps plummet, it's high time to abandon the TV and, ahem, book it to your neighborhood purveyor of winter reads. Trust us, you'll be in good company. "We're busy all winter long, even if the weather's wet," said Suzy Takacs, owner of The Book Cellar in Lincoln Square. "There's been blizzards outside, and it's still packed here."During the cold months, Takacs recommends diving into a weightier tome you haven't had time to tackle. "[In the summer] you're at the beach, and you're interrupted and distracted--you're talking to friends," she said. "In the winter, you can hunker down for... |
