PORTSMOUTH — “A Fruitful Collaboration” appearing in the March/April issue of New England Home, tells the story of a couple building their dream home. However, they weren’t entirely sure what kind of home they wanted until they met Bill Soupcoff, a principal with TMS Architects.

From an initial question and answer session, Soupcoff designed a home that combined their appreciation for the modest simplicity of Asian design with the crisp precision of contemporary architecture.

“Simple, cozy, precise, contemporary, minimalistic” were adjectives that the owners used to describe their vision. Add to this mix was the fact that the home was situated in the middle of a New England apple orchard. At the end of the design process, the spaciousness of the interior belies the size of the house at 3,000 square feet.

The design was achieved by incorporating cathedral ceilings and interior windows. High windows in two-story spaces and in the large central cupola flood the interior with natural light. The exterior of the home uses cedar shingles, brick and fieldstone; a New Hampshire color palette and one that blends seamlessly with the surrounding apple orchard.

FX Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ: FXEN) today
announced financial results for its fourth quarter and the full year of
2009. The Company reported a net loss for 2009 of $0.5 million, or $0.01
per share, compared to a net loss in 2008 of $54.7 million, or $1.35 per
share. Some $44 million of the improvement was due to the reduction of
non-cash charges in 2009. For 2009, the positive impact of non-cash items
was mildly offset by a decrease in revenue from all sources of 18%, to
$14.7 million compared to $17.8 million for the prior year.

For the fourth quarter of 2009, the Company reported record net operating
income of $2.0 million, or $0.05 per share, compared to a net operating
loss of $21.3 million, or $0.53 per share during the same quarter of 2008.
Though non-cash items contributed to improvement in the 2009 fourth
quarter, revenues and oil and gas production were at record levels. The
Company reported record oil and gas production of 1,080 million cubic feet
equivalent (Mmcfe) and record revenues of $6.6 million. The primary drivers
for the loss in 2008 were non-cash charges related to property impairments
and foreign exchange losses associated with intercompany debt.

Clay Newton, FX’s Vice President Finance, remarked, “The fourth quarter
results, which were driven by real oil and gas production gains, should be
sustainable. The biggest change for the fourth quarter was the addition of
the Roszkow well to our production base. This well has added some 7 million
net cubic feet of gas to our daily production. Wells in the Fences area
have historically sustained something close to their initial production
rates for several years.

“Additionally, we believe further production gains will be achieved from
four wells already completed and tested. During 2010, we expect to complete
construction of our KSK production facilities in western Poland. This would
allow us to bring 3 additional wells into production late cheap flights Darwin to Kununurra in the year.

‘Grand Boulevard’ could put squeeze on businesses

February 15, 2010 in Uncategorized by katejane

Source: Salt Lake Tribune (Original Article)

In a first-of-its-kind move, Salt Lake City is poised to create a new taxing district along North Temple between downtown and the airport that, for decades, would tap property owners to help fashion a “Grand Boulevard.”
If adopted, owners from about 400 West to 2400 West would pay more than $200 per foot for both one-time construction costs and ongoing maintenance, including trash and snow removal.
The street beautification, intended to blend with the planned airport TRAX line, would include new lighting, landscaping, multipurpose sidewalks, decorative walkways, bicycle paths and public art.
A coalition of area property owners estimates the two fees, which would generate nearly $4.5 million, would apply to more than 130 owners.
Property owners could finance over 10 years the one-time $185 per foot capital-project fee. The operating and maintenance fee — $17.50 per foot after year one — would be assessed for 30 years.
Mayor Ralph Becker’s team repeatedly has said area businesses are supportive. But some owners, including a group that meets regularly, have concerns.
“To have the burden of another tax or another fee might put some people out of business,” says Pete Funaro, owner of Diamond Lil’s restaurant at 1528 W. North Temple.
Funaro complains the proposed $185 construction tab already has been increased twice and says he is confused about the total package.
“I want to see it in writing, and I want to study it.”
What’s more, Funaro says, his “beautiful” log cabin restaurant made of Montana pines already has its own landscaping. If the district is created, he would be charged about $40,000. “That’s a big chunk of dough in these times.”
Tonight, the City Council is expected to adopt a “notice of intention” and to schedule an April 13 protest hearing. A vote tentatively is set for June 1.
North Temple’s largest property owners are on board. The state, which owns 3,192 feet of frontage, would kick in $591,000 Over 50s Insurance to pay for lighting on their property. …continue reading
