New review in Dominica Oil
31 January is happy birthday of Wanga, who is clairvoyant from the Bolgaria.
The most shocking prediction blind Vanga did in 1980. She said then literally as follows: “At the end of the century, in August 1999 or 2000, Kursk will be under water, and the whole world will mourn him.”
Kursk – the city with a population of half million. Kursk located middle of the continent, far from any source of major rivers or reservoirs. In August 2000 downfall of nuclear submarine “Kursk”, and the entire world mourned …Predicting 1989: “Fear, fear! I see American brothers fall, through bite by iron birds. Wolves howl I hear from bush, and the innocent blood spilled rivers I see. ” — allusion was not understood because on the Bulgarian “bush” is “kust”, -В Wanga identified the Geminis fall by the time of President Bush …
1960: “As the train in 2018 will fly on the wire from the Sun. Oil production stops, the Earth will be rest. “
It seems that this is beginning to come true. Scientists in 2018 will be organize the extraction of helium-3 on the Moon such plans were announced just a few days ago. Helium, in Greek means “sun”. Helium-3 is a product of solar activity, and the fuel for fusion reactor, which, in fact, itself – a small sun. The reactor will provide electricity in the wires, and the trains will be fly.Not all prophecies come true from Wanga … Cassandra sometimes wrong … Maybe not. We may not be able to interpret what is not yet happen.

A leading Caribbean political analyst is doubtful about regional countries signing on to Venezuela’s Bolivarian Alternative for the Americas (ALBA).
The trade and cooperation pact is being pushed by President Hugo Chavez as a counter to the proposed US-led Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA).
The ALBA includes the Petro-Caribe oil deal.
Current member countries are Venezuela, Nicaragua, Bolivia, Cuba and now Dominica.
Trinidad and Tobago-born Professor Anthony Bryan, the Director of the Caribbean Program and Senior Research Associate at the North-South Center of the University of Miami, is sceptical about CARICOM states signing on to the ALBA.
Professor Bryan, who is also a Senior Associate with the Washington-based Centre for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), told BBC Caribbean’s Marie-Claire Williams that he feels the decision of Dominica to sign up was ill-advised.
But Dominica’s Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit has defended his decision to take his country into the bloc.
He told business people in Dominica that the country stands to reap great benefits from the trade deal.

Should the Caribbean sign on to the hemispheric integration project promoted by the Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez?
Mr Chavez has proposed ALBA – the Bolivarian Alternative for the Americas – as a counter to the US-led idea of a Free Trade Area of the Americas or FTAA.
Dominica is one of the countries which have signed a joint statement supporting the general principles of ALBA, which was founded in 2004 by Venezuela and Cuba as an alternative to the FTAA.
But not all Caribbean countries are enamoured of President Chavez’s ALBA nor his Petro-Caribe oil-on-concessionary-terms initiative.
For example Trinidad and Tobago has already indicated that it’s firmly in the FTAA camp: it’s lobbying to host the headquarters.
This is one of more some news:
Should the Caribbean sign on to the hemispheric integration project promoted by the Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez?
Mr Chavez has proposed ALBA – the Bolivarian Alternative for the Americas – as a counter to the US-led idea of a Free Trade Area of the Americas or FTAA.
A number of Caribbean leaders were expected at the sixth summit on the ALBA, being held in Caracas, the Venezuelan capital, the weekend of January 25.
Dominica, Antigua and Barbuda and St Vincent and the Grenadines were expected to be represented.
In February last year the three countries signed a joint statement supporting the general principles of ALBA, which was founded in 2004 by Venezuela and Cuba as an alternative to the FTAA.
But not all Caribbean countries are enamoured of President Chavez’s ALBA nor his Petro-Caribe oil-on-concessionary-terms initiative.
For example Trinidad and Tobago has already indicated that it’s firmly in the FTAA camp: it’s lobbying to host the headquarters.
It’s very similar to the experience of the Soviet Union, world socialism and all that
As reported news agencies armed forces of Venezuela had arrested more than 500 tons of foodstuff, which agricultural producers tried to smuggle from Venezuela. Milk and eggs are not drugs. But in terms of building socialism, it is an important strategic resource, which must be under state control. According to Venezuelan leader Hugo Chavez, it is necessarily to control market prices or to nationalize the strategically important spheres of the economy, such as eggs and milk.
In trying to solve some problems, the Government of Venezuela, together with the Government of Dominica has decided to build a refinery in Dominica, although on the island is no trained specialists. There is a less obvious solution: build on Dominica agricultural enterprises, such as a poultry and dairy farm, for which to find and train specialists much easier on Dominica. And the products sent to Venezuela for remove the arose deficit.
The question may seem obvious, but smart government members of Venezuela and Dominica may have a different view.

All my life I’ve been living in Dominica, the Nature Isle. Dominica has always been perceived as a natural paradise, the undiscovered gem of the Caribbean, so why is the Government even considering developing an oil refinery here?! I know the country is in great need of financial stability but will an oil refinery make things better for us here in Dominica or will things get worse?
Are they forgetting the kind of image of Dominica they are letting off to the world?
Don’t they know what an oil refinery can do to the country and the inhabitants of the country?
Can we really handle an oil refinery?
Am I the only one hearing about GLOBAL WARMING?
Excerpts from an article on Wikipedia- Oil Refinery
Safety and environmental concerns
The refining process releases numerous different chemicals into the atmosphere; consequently, there are substantial air pollution emissions and a notable odor normally accompanies the presence of a refinery. Aside from air pollution impacts there are also wastewater concerns, risks of industrial accidents such as fire and explosion, and noise health effects due to industrial noise.
Environmental and safety concerns mean that oil refineries are sometimes located some distance away from major urban areas. Nevertheless, there are many instances where refinery operations are close to populated areas and pose health risks.

It’s much more worse that you can imagine.
My name is Vlad Domennov and I am citizen of Russia, who cares about Dominica future. After I read the post on the Russian Version of DW, I decide to contact to specialist in the oil industry. I got first replay from Sergey Ogarkov, who is Ukrainian.
His Profile:
Sergey Ogarkov, Ukraine.
JSC “Lukoil-Odessa Oil-Refinery” (101-1000 people, chemistry/oil-chemistry), Odessa.
I work in this company from the September 1992.
His Experience:
I have worked as engineer, chief of installation, head of production, the lead project manager, and now I do the investments projects and the prospect for the refinery.
My question to him:
Sergey, please, could you tell how many work places in the Oil Refinery, which refine 10 000 barrels per day? Is it about 2000 tonnes?
I got an unexpected answer from him:
1 barrel = 159 litres or approximately 137.5 kg. That means 10 000 barrels = 1375 tonnes per day or approximately 460 000 thousand tonnes per year. The world practice shows that the processing of less than 4 million tons a year for the Oil Refinery is unprofitable. Accordingly, the project will never pay off.
The more so, to have the Oil Refinery in the area that could bring huge profits as a tourist paradise, its a very stupid.
My comment:
That means If you want the Dominica Oil Refinery didn’t give your only losses, this refinery should refine not less then 80 000 barrels of oil. Did you see in the movie cargo trains? Could you imagine barrel in the height of 3 meters and length of 12 meters? Such barrels should go about one and a half miles (more than 2 kilometers) every day. One damage of an oil barge – and fishermen can forget about fish. And do not dream about tourists anymore – you will never see them again in the island. Nobody will want bananas, because Oil Refinery close to the plantations and your competitors will sink you at one moment.

I read in the newspaper that the Prime Minister is going to sign the contract with Venezuela to build Oil Refinery in Dominica. One more pristine corner will be erased from our planet with one stroke of the pen. I’m lost for words but my emotions speak aloud.
The economy of this country will be finally undermined:
Firstly, tourist will not show up here anymore – which person would travel through all this complications just to get to an island with permeated smell of oil? As a result, not only the people, who work in the tourism industry (hotels, guides, divers and others), will lose their jobs, but also the people who serve them – shops, supermarkets and etc.
Secondly, it will agriculture end: who wants to buy bananas, coffee and other products grown on the oil? Rare species of fish will become extinct, giant turtles and whales will not be here anymore too.
Thirdly, all smart people, who do something or understand the situation on the island, will the first to flee hence; the rest of people will just follow them later. As a result, on the island it will remain 400 staff of oil refinery and 400 firefighters to extinguish explosions.
That is such a joyful picture of the future for the pristine nature island, which is listed by UNESCO as a greatest world heritage.
How to stave off disaster?
Help to save the island!
