Let Someone Else Eat Cake
A birthday party for an employee at Gravity Diagnostics in Kentucky cost the company $450,000, but it wasn't an expensive cake and decorations that ran up the bill, WLKYTV reported. The employee, whose birthday fell on Aug. 7, asked the office manager days before to forgo the usual celebration because such affairs trigger his anxiety disorder, and "being the center of attention" would cause him to suffer a panic attack. However, the manager went ahead with planning a lunchtime to-do in the break room, which caused the guest of honor to flee to his car to eat his lunch. The next day, the birthday boy was called into a meeting and scolded for his reaction and was later fired "because of the events of the previous week," according to a lawsuit he filed against the company. In the suit, the former employee said the company didn't accommodate his anxiety disorder and caused him to suffer a "loss of income and benefits and emotional distress and mental anxiety." The Kenton County jury agreed and awarded him the six-figure amount.
It's a Dirty Job ...
In Australia, Queensland's Bill Edgar is known to some as the Coffin Confessor. As such, Edgar shows up at funerals and speaks for the deceased, telling off family members, setting friends straight and delivering bad news about beneficiaries, News.com.au reported on April 14.
But Edgar's job doesn't stop there. His services, for which he charges $2,000 to $10,000, have expanded to removing items from the deceased's home that they'd rather the family not see: "Could be sex toys, messages of hate, love, whatever it is they've written down, that they want removed from their web browsers. One gentleman had ... a sex dungeon in one of his bedrooms. And that gentleman was 88 years of age, believe it or not," Edgar said.
He even delivers his services in the United States and United Kingdom, and he said Paramount has picked up the story for a movie.

DEEP is taking its last steps towards a final investment decision and major financing
Twice last week, SaskEnergy set new daily natural gas usage records, and we can thank Alberta for most of our supply

Kindersley, SK
Ching Construction Corp. is a sister company to TKC Trucking & Picker Service Ltd. and formally known as Mitch’s Contracting. We are based out of Kindersley, SK and specialize in earthwork, land reclamation, gravel hauling & heavy equipment operations.
SASKATOON – After several years of drilling and testing, Deep Earth Energy Production Corp. (DEEP) thinks they have figured out how they are going to make their geothermal power production facilities work. They are now going to spend the next six months finalizing engineering and hope to finalize the PPA with SaskPower and plan for financing and last steps to make it happen.
Not only was Saskatchewan setting electrical consumption records during the cold snap of last week of December, we also set two consecutive natural gas consumption records, too.
According to SaskEnergy in a Dec. 31 release, “Extreme cold weather across Saskatchewan this week resulted in record-breaking natural gas demand in the province. On December 28 and 29, natural gas consumption surpassed the previous daily record of 1.57 petajoules (PJ) which was set in February 2021.
President and CEO Kirsten Marcia spoke to Pipeline Online on April 21 by phone.
The intent of DEEP is to produce low emission baseload electrical power, deriving energy from very hot water deep underground. That water will be used in an Organic Rankine Cycle generator to produce electricity for the SaskPower grid.
“A new daily record of 1.62 PJ was set on December 28 and broken again on December 29 with total system delivery of 1.64 PJ. Delivery numbers for December 30 and 31 are not yet finalized, but are also expected to exceed 1.6 PJ.”
The natural gas records coincided with record power consumption. On Dec. 29, SaskPower set another record in power consumption for Saskatchewan. At 5:27 p.m. on Dec. 29, 2021, Saskatchewan homes and businesses reached 3,868 megawatts (MW) in power use, according to the Crown corporation. The previous record of 3,792 MW was reached four years ago to the day, on Dec. 29, 2017.
The project has continued to evolve over the years and one of the biggest developments is they are now looking to essentially skip the small pilot stage and go right into larger power production facilities. Whereas the initial plan was to develop a 10 megawatt facility, of which 5 megawatts would be needed to power its pumps and other hardware, the new plan scales that up to 35 megawatts. That would be the first of four plants planned, which would provide a total of 140 megawatts of baseload power to the grid.
For comparison, those four plants combined would be very close in size to SaskPower’s Boundary Dam Unit 5, which is slated for retirement in a few years.
Saskatchewan’s power production has increasingly shifted from coal to natural gas as a fuel source. In December, Boundary Dam Unit 4, a coal-fired generating unit, was retired, reducing the Boundary Dam Power Station to 672 megawatts capacity. On the natural gas side, Saskatchewan has seen the construction of several new natural gas-fired power plants. They include the baseload North Battleford Power Station (289 megawatts), Yellowhead Power Station peaking plant (also at North Battleford, 135 megawatts), the baseload Chinook Power Station at Swift Current (353 megawatts) and peaking plant Spy Hill Power Station (89 megawatts). Another 353 megawatt baseload
However, they still need to power their pumps and facilities, something known as a “parasitic load.” And for that, DEEP is considering using natural gas, either local flare gas, or pipeline spec gas from TransGas, for that power. And emissions from that would be captured in a small-scale carbon capture scheme.

DEEP notes this aligns with the federal government’s recent unveiling of a 50 per cent tax credit aimed at spurring investment in carbon capture and storage technologies.
plant, very similar to Chinook, is under construction at Moose Jaw.
Timing
All of this added natural gas-fired power generation has, in turn, driven higher usage of natural gas during times of high electrical consumption.
This initial facility is planned for commissioning in early 2025. As envisioned, a fourstage build aims to scale the project to produce approximately 140 megawatts of geothermal power generation in approximately 35 megawatt increments, each increment roughly the amount of power needed to supply 35,000 households.
The Crown noted that increased demand from SaskEnergy’s industrial customers, including natural gas use for power production, was the main driver of this week’s record-setting consumption.
SaskEnergy said it measures daily natural gas consumption for the 24-hour period from 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. A PJ is a unit of measurement equivalent to one million gigajoules (GJ) of natural gas. An average Saskatchewan home consumes about 100 GJ of natural gas each year.
“SaskEnergy’s natural gas system design can accommodate additional capacity to manage increased consumption even on peak days,” SaskEnergy president and CEO Ken From said in a release. “Throughout the year, SaskEnergy employees inspect, maintain and enhance the system to support safe and reliable natural gas delivery in all weather conditions. In addition, employees monitor the system 24 hours a day to ensure sufficient system capacity to meet customer demand across the province.”
Phase 1 development plans include one approximately 35 megawatt gross geothermal power facility. That first block is planned where DEEP has drilled four of their six holes to date, about 2 miles north of the US border, and four miles east of the Port of Torquay. The other two wells were drilled along Highway 350, one adjacent to the border, the other near Long Creek, as step out wells, to confirm the geology of the region.
This province is now largely dependent on neighbouring Alberta to fulfill roughly two-thirds of our natural gas needs.
The geothermal field development will consist of 34 horizontal wells (18 production wells and 16 injection wells) to be drilled and completed from the location of the surface facility and four additional drilling pads.
When natural gas prices took a tumble roughly 14 years ago, Saskatchewan’s domestic gas production fell off a cliff. Targeted gas drilling went essentially extinct, with next to no gas-specific wells being drilled in this province for most of the past decade. Our domestic gas production is now largely based on associated gas production that comes with oil production. As a result, Saskatchewan went from being a net gas exporter for the period of 1988 to 2009 to a net importer that year.
Marcia explained that their initial power purchase agreement in 2017 with SaskPower was for 5 megawatts. It was a pretty standard agreement that SaskPower was using for multiple small power generation projects. But now that they are larger in scale, they’re going to need to revise the agreement, and negotiations are underway.
This comes at a time when SaskPower is being forced off of conventional coal power production by the federal government. Thus,

“Small” enough to care, “Big” enough to supply
Solving problems
According to Marcia, DEEP thinks they’ve solved some of the key engineering issues involved with bringing up very hot, and very saline water from deep underground. Those include corrosion and pumping.
In a way, it has been like playing a game of whack-a-mole, she explained, but they have gotten to the point where they might be able to put that whack-a-mole mallet away.
Marcia said, “We always knew we had corrosion challenges, but we had anticipated that we could solve that with corrosion inhibitor. And then test work revealed in December that the feed rates would just be at impossible rates. So that made DEEP revisit the subsurface design switch, where we had to use special coated tubing, but of course, what happens when you do that is then you restrict your flow rates, right? You don’t have the original nine fiveeighths diameter wellbore. So that then triggered some subsurface redesign, which doesn’t happen overnight.
“That took us a few months to work through, and to work through the reservoir modeling, and make sure that the parasitic loads don’t go up. And we are really happy with where we are sitting.”
The solution for the tubing is to use specially lined tubing.
For surface hardware, they can corrosion resistant material use.
They will be using electric submersible pumps (ESPs), which specialize in moving vast quantities of fluids. And one of the key points is they’ve been able to reduce the expected parasitic load to less than the 50 per cent originally expected. Right now, that is looking like 15 megawatts per facility. Marcia said. “We’ve got that down to less than half, which is awesome.”
FEED done
The front end engineering and design (FEED) was competed last fall. Now DEEP is working with Calgary-based SCOVAN Engineering on their design basis memorandum (DBM) phase of engineering.
DEEP has secured 80 acres of land under an 18 month offer to purchase for the surface area requirements for the first planned approximately 35 megawatt geothermal facility.
Regarding the use of natural gas for powering the pumps and facilities, Marcia said, “When people talk about energy transition, people want to jump from high carbon emission energy all the way immediately to low carbon. And that’s not a transition. Transition is sometimes a blend of both and so the way that the federal government is looking on natural gas, carbon capture and storage, it’s really a no brainer for us to start looking at. Why don’t we use clean natural gas with carbon capture to investigate that as part of the package?”
DEEP’s government subsurface lease for geothermal power is a contiguous 39,120 hectare (99,667 acre) block. In addition to geothermal power production, and with proper regulatory approvals, separate stratigraphic intervals within this subsurface lease could also be used for CO2 storage. DEEP is exploring strategic CO2 storage opportunities to develop a major multi-use CO2 storage field.
All of these are the final details that need to be in place for the large construction financing, she said.
“That’s when the banks get involved, that’s when the major equity investors get involved. You know, obviously, no one’s going to put the big dollars into this until there’s a contract in place, right? So that gives us the next few months to get those details wrapped up.”
They are aiming to have those details in place by this fall working towards a final investment decision (FID). GeothermEx, a Schlumberger Company, is a geothermal specialty firm will be asked to review the project for the satisfaction of the investors or financiers. “They’re kind of the gold standard in geothermal,” she said. “Any large institutional investor or bank will go for a third-party opinion, so our thoughts are let’s get them involved right out of the gate.”
In the meantime, they might drill one more well, but she’s not sure. They are going to shoot some 3D seismic this fall once the crops come off. If they do additional drilling, it will be once the larger construction financing is in place.
Last fall, DEEP entered a strategic partnership with Prairie Lithium to exchange subsurface mineral permits and establish an Area of Mutual Interest (AMI) to explore future lithium opportunities.

Make a Handprint Bloom Card for Mom
Young kids can let Mom know she's the best, hands down, with this personalized Mother's Day poster card. Their own handprints will create the blooms for an artful flower that Mom will treasure. Get started now, since Mother's Day is Sunday, May 8.
Here's what you'll need:
— 1 large, 12-inch-by-18-inch sheet of sturdy construction paper or poster board in a light color such as yellow, pink or lavender
— several sheets of construction paper in assorted colors
— colorful tissue paper, cut into thin strips
— white household glue
— empty recycled margarine or deli tub
— paintbrush, pencil and scissors
Here's the fun:
1. With the pencil, outline your child's hand with fingers slightly spread apart on a piece of construction paper. Cut out tracings (you'll need at least three per flower).
2. Pour glue into the tub, and dilute with a few drops of water. Brush glue mixture on the cutout. Wad the tissue strips and press on cutout to decorate. Make and decorate several hand shapes using at least one hand from each child in the family. Glue the cutouts on the top half of the large sheet of construction paper in a circular pat-
tern (with palms at center). Or arrange three hands with one hand pointing to the right, one to the left and one straight up. The pattern should resemble a flower.
3. Cut and glue on green paper in shapes of a stem and leaves. Add a circle in a contrasting color for the center of the flower.
4. Make a border on the poster card and write a personal greeting, such as "Best Mom, Hands Down!" or "From your little blossoms: Janelle, Mia and Emily."
Kids lend a "hand" to create Mother's Day poster card
Variation: Instead of cutting a hand shape, simply place a child's hand in poster paint (palm down) and guide the hand on the card. Gently press the hand on the paper, making sure that the palm and five fingers make a print. Repeat with another child's hand until the flower is complete. Add paper stem, leaves and center.

Back in the day, on a beautiful spring day, a farmer had led his cow to a small stream next to a green, lush meadow. The animal happily guzzles some water, while the farmer milks her. Two engineers come hiking down the path that follows the stream.
“Excuse me, sir”, says one, “what are you doing there?”
“Well, I’m milking the cow, of course”, answers the farmer. Considering the question, and their looks, he adds: “You must be from the city?”
“That’s right”, the man responds. “You see, I’ve heard of milking a cow, but I’ve never witnessed the process myself. And to tell the truth, I’m quite intrigued to see how it works!”
“Then wait until you’ve tasted the fresh, still warm milk!” exclaims the enterprising farmer, producing two tin mugs. “5 ct each.”
Without a second thought, the engineers agree and are in bliss. They feel like they’ve never tasted milk before in all their life.
“You see”, continues the talkative one, “we are engineers. I’d like to get a more thorough understanding of how this works. What I have already perceived is that the water goes in at the front, and the milk comes out at the bottom shortly after. That’s obvious. But what happens in between?!”
The farmer shoots him a doubtful glance. But ever eager to do business, he replies: “Look here, gentlemen, I am but a simple man and don’t understand any of this. But tell you what: For $200, I’ll sell you the beast, and you can research her aaalll you want.”
The engineers do have the money between them. And after some discussion, with some encouragement from the farmer’s side (beautiful specimen, never find the same at such a price), they agree and purchase the cow. The farmer hands them a piece of rope to lead the animal away, and off they go.
Two hours later, the sun being quite warm that day, they stop again. And decide to still their thirst with some more of that delicious milk. One leads the cow to the stream, who starts drinking at once. The other one is at the back, cluelessly pulling the udder.
As he has not the slightest idea of what he’s doing, and the cow having been milked just two hours previously, the result is: none at all.
“Hey”, he prompts the guy at the front, “I believe the water intake is not sufficient. Try and put the nozzle a bit deeper into the water!”
The other guy, not a man for half-hearted action, pushes the cow’s head down into the water. Mouth, nose and all. The poor beast starts to panic - and to wildly diarrhea.
“Not THAT deep!”, the engineer shouts. “She’s already drawing up the mud...!”
