Portland, Oregon

Rohrabacher, Behrends, Akhmetshin, Veselnitskaya, and Matlock had dinner

"During Royce’s hearing, Rohrabacher approvingly compared Donald Trump to Vladimir Putin. The congressman also submitted, for the congressional record, testimony that claimed Russia had not been behind the radioactive poisoning of former FSB officer Alexander Litvinenko in London. 

Rohrabacher, Behrends, Akhmetshin, Veselnitskaya, and Matlock had dinner together later that night at the Capitol Hill Club, a private members’ establishment for Republicans. The evening was organized by Lanny Wiles, a veteran GOP operative. 

The following day, House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy was caught on tape telling Republican colleagues: 

“There’s two people I think Putin pays: Rohrabacher and Trump.” When some of the lawmakers laughed, he replied: “Swear to blogGod.”

https://www.theguardian.com/science/2018/dec/31/new-horizons-heads-for-flyby-of-space-rock-ultima-thule

After the Pluto encounter, Alan Stern, the principal investigator on New Horizons, asked Brian May, the Queen guitarist and astrophysicist, if he would compose a track to celebrate the Ultima Thule flyby.


“I did scratch my head for a while,” said May. “The name is quite hard to conjure with. But then it came to me that this is about man’s desire to reach out into the universe and explore, and see things that have never been seen before.”

The New Horizons track, May’s first solo single for two decades, included a message from Stephen Hawking and was premiered at the New Horizons control centre at Johns Hopkins University shortly before the flyby.

“It’s been very exciting. I feel like I’m on that thing,” May said.

   Media: Akara (Brazil-Acaraje)
Acarajé (Portuguese pronunciation: [akaɾaˈʒɛ  ]

(About this soundlisten)) or (Yoruba: àkàrà) is a dish made from peeled beans formed into a ball and then deep-fried in dendê (palm oil). It is found in West African and Brazilian cuisines. The dish is traditionally encountered in Brazil's northeastern state of Bahia, especially in the city of Salvador.

Acarajé serves as both a religious offering to the gods in the Candomblé religion and as street food.

[1] The dish was brought by slaves from West Africa, and can be found in various forms in Nigeria, Ghana, Togo, Benin, Mali, Gambia and Sierra Leone.

It is served split in half and stuffed with vatapá and caruru – spicy pastes made from shrimp, ground cashews, palm oil and other ingredients.

 A vegetarian version is typically served with hot peppers and green tomatoes.

 Acarajé can also come in a second form called abara, where the ingredients are boiled instead of deep fried.

     Revealing a cornice light-lingered;

Oceans bloomed boiling awake,

     Birthing Astrid's columnar granite fingers.


Comet shreds raining, night dazzled arcade,

     Astrid's stride many wakes blazing;

Water wall syncline, harbinger promenade,

     Gasping fire tracers liquefied pacing,


Her pegasus hooves red-snowing, mineral fusions,

     Astrid undid sphere's buttons atoned;

Uprising eternal, core blasted confusions, contusions,

     Answering mountainous, forlorn.  


Bang bigly my mantle, Astrid announcing life,

Heap zillions neath time, make oil your knife.

"PDVSA also owns 100 percent of Champlin Refining in Fort Worth, Texas, Young said. Additionally, the Venezuelan enterprise owns 50 percent of Unoven, a Chicago-based refinery. The other half of Unoven is owned by Unocal Inc. of Los Angeles.

PDVSA's acquisitions are part of Venezuela's strategy to shift its marketing strategy from being a mere crude oil producer to also being a refiner and marketer of petroleum products."

Xmas for Vlad, CITGO

" As allies go, Venezuela is a relatively cheap one for Russia. But the potential returns on Moscow’s investment there could be priceless.

In exchange for modest loans and bailouts over the past decade, Russia now owns significant parts of at least five oil fields in Venezuela, which holds the world’s largest reserves, along with 30 years’ worth of future output from two Caribbean natural-gas fields. 

Venezuela also has signed over 49.9 percent of Citgo, its wholly owned company in the United States — including three Gulf Coast refineries and a countrywide web of pipelines — as collateral to Russia’s state-owned Rosneft oil behemoth for a reported $1.5 billion in desperately needed cash. "

"
The Venezuelan national oil company will merge two Oklahoma-born companies "to achieve a stronger position" in the United States refining and marketing industry, company officials disclosed Thursday.

Champlin Refining and Chemicals Inc., based in Irving, Texas, will be combined with Tulsa-based Citgo Petroleum Corp., Petroleos de Venezuela S.A. (PDVSA) spokesman Kent Young said at a Tulsa news conference. The joint headquarters will remain in Tulsa."

https://newsok.com/article/2330274/champlin-refining-citgo-plan-merger

"With the integration, the merged companies will have revenues in excess of $7 billion and a refining capacity of 480,000 barrels per day. 

Citgo's refinery in Lake Charles, La., has a capacity of 320,000 barrels per day and Champlin's Corpus Christi, Texas, refinery has a capacity of 160,000 barrels per day.

Citgo has 3,200 employees, 900 of them in Tulsa; 1,600 at the Lake Charles refinery and 150 at a packaging and blending plant in Cicero, Ill. The rest are scattered at terminals.

 Champlin has 150 employees in Irving. Hall said Thursday he doesn't know Champlin's total personnel, but estimated the number to be between 700 and 900.

The merger is part of an international restructuring intended to "extend PDVSA's global reach," Hall explained.

When Russ Dallen, a Florida-based managing partner at the brokerage Caracas Capital Markets, sifted through court filings in Delaware, where Citgo’s holding company is based, he found that Rosneft had reached a deal that had pumped $1.5 billion into Venezuela in exchange for a lien on the other 49.9 percent of Citgo.

With assumptions that Citgo, if sold, could be worth between $6 billion and $9 billion, the arrangement amounted to a sweetheart deal — and, in addition, the Russians had managed to lay claim to almost half of a major U.S. oil giant.

"it hired Avenue Strategies, the firm co-founded by former Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski and campaign adviser Barry Bennett.

Since then, Citgo has paid Avenue Strategies $160,000 to lobby the White House, the Treasury Department, the Justice Department, and the Energy Department on the “potential impact of U.S. energy and foreign policy restrictions on CITGO Petroleum Corporation's operations and valuation of assets,” according to disclosure filings.

Two Avenue Strategies lobbyists were specifically tasked to press for Citgo sanctions relief: Bennett and Bud Cummins, a former U.S. Attorney and the Arkansas state chairman for the Trump campaign. Avenue Strategies did not respond to requests for comment on its work for Citgo.

Citgo sought favor with the Trump administration even before the president took office. It pitched in $500,000 to fund the president’s inaugural ceremony, according to Federal Election Commission records— a break from previous inaugurations, which the company had not bothered to finance.
