I have a crazy liberal Professor who think that nationalizing the oil companies would fix the deficit. Can someone tell me how much the government would make?
Exxon, the biggest oil company, showed 45 billion in profits in 2008. That’s about 3% of this year’s deficit.
No way does nationalizing oil companies fix the deficit.
Of course, your professor may just be looking at gross income, in which case he has no understanding of economics, and should be taken with a grain of salt.
I’ve been researching, but still can’t get a simple answer. I’ve read a lot of good things about jojoba. Also for grapeseed oil, not so much about anything else. Almond oil works reallly good for my hair, jojoba works good for my skin as well as coconut, but the only problem is that i want one oil that can do it all.
While all the oils you mentioned are suitable for both hair and skin, I believe jojoba would be your best bet. Jojoba oil has been shown to be chemically similar to the oils found on your scalp and skin (called sebum), so it makes sense that jojoba oil would be the best choice. Having very long, fine, straight hair I find that I achieve the best results by using jojoba oil. It’s fairly light in comparison to coconut, but appears to leave my hair with a better texture than grapeseed or almond oil.
So, in the end, while all the oils you listed are good for your hair/skin, jojoba would probably be your best bet given it’s chemical makeup.
How does it work with oil, gas, and mineral rights in regards to selling property?
I am trying to sell vacant land and I have someone asking whether the OGM’s come with the property.
To be frank, is there a reason that they wouldn’t come with the property?
I can tell you that in Texas when a seller sells a home or vacant property the standard contract calls for the buyer to receive all rights that the seller has- even if they are not named. If later on solar or air rights become valuable then they would have also passed. But years ago several landowners sold all or most of their mineral rights and since the seller does not own them the buyer would not receive them.
Tracking down who owns mineral rights in Texas involves a separate search than a title insurance policy or title search. It involves a guy called a "land man". They search thru the records and determine who owns what. Our title companies here have specifically said they will not guarantee who owns any mineral rights. Your state may have a different setup.
Some people here when they sell their property they keep the mineral rights (and maybe have to sell the property a little cheaper to offset it).
I have the 3.3ltr V-6 and it has 119000 miles. The oil light comes on when I idle after the engine is warm. It is not low on oil although it does use a quart between oil changes. My best guess is the oil pressure switch. How do I change it? A link to a diagram would be nice too.
How much of a problem is worn engine bearings? The car seems to be running fine.
A special socket that’s available at any parts store is all that’s needed. Just locate the sending unit and unscrew it from the engine block. I’m presuming you have located the sending unit on the engine block. If it isn’t on top of the engine block, it’s usually located near the oil filter.
I don’t think your low oil pressure is a fault of the switch. My experience is that when these go bad, they fail completely (light on all the time). Worn engine bearings is probably the main reason for low oil pressure.
The future of oil does not look very bright. Within the next 7years, experts think there will be a global oil shortage. Industrialized countries will demand more gas and the supply will not be able to meet the demand. The consequences of a global oil shortage could be a nightmare.
President Obama said he will stand up to big oil, but shouldn’t the USA be focused on reducing its demand for oil. Obviously the higher the price of gas is, the more people will cut back on their driving.
What are the presidential candidates’ plans to reduce the USA’s demand for oil?
It needs to be addressed from multiple angles. First, the economy in general needs a jolt. If the value of the dollar would increase it would help to slow the quickly rising costs of oil. Second, we need to start seriously looking into other energy sources such as hydrogen, nuclear, solar, wind, to help get ourselves away from oil. Even if billions of dollars were poured into this it would still take 15 years to make a significant reduction in our dependence on fossil fuels. Third, we need to do something to address OPEC. We’ve poured TRILLIONS of dollars into protecting Saudi Arabia for the last 20 years and it’s time for them to pay up. We need to stop providing tax breaks to non-renewable energies in order to force them to look into alternate sources.
Neither candidate has released specific details of a plan, only a few key points of areas they would focus. I would expect it will be a major point of discussion at the upcoming conventions as the national avg. for gas at the time will likely be well above $4 per gallon.
Depending on how you define wealth, possibly. What is likely is that some people who are very involved in the export industry have become very rich, thus widening the wealth gap, whilst others may still be comparatively poor… ultimately though, it is likely that everyone will have benefited some extend, for example the rich pay lots of tax which pays for public services which benefit other people as well.
An interesting topic… good question.
I have an 06 Suzuki SV650s and I just did an oil change, well the manuel to my understanding says to fill to the top line on your oil window. I did this but when the engine is running and you look into the window, you don’t see any oil. So should you be able to see the oil in the window when the bike is on and running?
Turn the bike off first.
Lean it totally upright, then fill it to the line in the window. It should say how many oz.’s it takes in your manual too.
The problem with filling it when the bike is on is that your oil is being spun up into your head and crankcase, so it’s not a valid reading-therefore you’ll overfill your engine with oil!
Liberals weres the outrage? Is it OK for liberal senators to cozy up with big business. Are these senators ignoring your wishes and only pandering to you while selling out to "evil" Corporations?
senators including
DSCC Chairman Robert Menendez
Michigan’s Carl Levin and Debbie Stabenow
Bob Casey of Pennsylvania
Claire McCaskill of Missouri
Kay Hagan of North Carolina
Mark Begich of Alaska
and even left-leaning Bernie Sanders of Vermont.

You must be one of the people who think that a lobbyist’s job is to buy votes. It may happen sometimes, but that isn’t politics as usual, no matter what you have been led to believe. EVERY bill in congress was written by and influenced by lobbyists. It only makes sense that people deciding the future of energy in the country would want to hear what the people who control the energy companies would have to say. It would only be wrong if they didn’t listen to what the environmentalists and other energy producers have to say as well before making a decision. (If you remember–that’s what the outrage was about when Bush met with these guys and called it an energy summit.)
Is there proof of non organic unlimted abiotc oil/ fuel?! If there is send me a link from your OFFICIAL SORCE. If not then what can we do before oil crashes?
Oil isn’t going to be running out any time soon. There are at least 1.3 trillion barrels remaining and much much more in oil sands and oil shale.
Tenant moved out because of failing paying the rent owed and because a hearing had been scheduled to recover the property. The property is heated by Oil and the tank is required to be at least 1/4 full when tenant vacates the property (Tenant responsible for heat according to Rental Agreement), The tenant called and left me a message stating that they moved out and left the keys on the back porch. In-between the time they moved out and when I was able to do a walk-thru of the property, the water pipes burst because of the freezing cold temperatures. Since the water wasn’t shut off, water was every where and flooded the basement and parts of the first floor. I have no doubt that they are legally liable for the damages caused because of them. The question is:
Since we already have a "Recovery Of Real Property Hearing" scheduled, would it be possible to add a rough estimate of the cost of damages to the property at the time of the "Recovery" hearing? Or will this have to be a separate filing using a different procedure and form?
Also, this damage was just discovered today and the hearing is this coming Monday morning. I highly doubt that will allow me enough time to have professionals look at the damage and provide me with actual estimates. So will my own rough "non-professional" estimates suffice for the "Recovery" hearing on Monday?
What should I do? I’m guessing that as much as $10,000 worth of damage may have been done!
Thanks to the 2 who have already provided answers to my question, but I still would like some more information/details.
1: What is meant by "adjournment"
2: What is the name of the form or form number that I would need to fill out to file this suit with the courts?
Ex: AOPC 310B-05
Less than 6 days have past since the tenants moved out and the damage was discovered.
We talked to the insurance company and we are fully covered for the damages incurred.
As for the tenants being responsible or not, they are. If they would have abided by the lease agreement and made sure that there was at least 1/4 tank of oil in the tank, there’s no way it would have run dry in the short amount of time.
No, your estimates are incompetent as proof (that is a legal phrase, not an insult). Go to the hearing and ask for an adjournment.
