If you have an auto responder on your e-mail address then perhaps if you evacuate your area under mandatory evacuation requirements prior to a catastrophic and large category hurricane then it would be wise to alert everyone who e-mails you that you will not be able to the mail them back for quite a while.

It is important that you consider this and since people are also watching the television news they will know how big hurricane was and how much damage was caused then cut you some slack on your obligations whether they be for business or personal. It is advised that you leave on your email that you are safe and have left the state and will attempt to pick up older e-mails every so often but you cannot guarantee it yet.

Essentially you want to let everyone know that you are sorry that you can do nothing about the return of the e-mails but you thank them for e-mailing you can assure them that you will try to pick up your e-mails at a later date and respond.

This is proper e-mail etiquette and it is the right thing to do. It also alerts acquaintances and distant family members that everything is okay and although there is a severe hardship and adversity having to leave your home that you are okay. Please consider all this in 2006.

Hurricanes can be very damaging to the human psyche especially for those who have lost everything in a major category storm. We saw many people along the Gulf Coast of the United States of America who had lost everything due to the storm surge and the high winds. When stuff like this happens it can take its toll and cause depression and this can have a severe impact on the human immune system.

Hurricanes do not promote happiness unless you are one of the people whose house was still standing when you came back and then you are happy your home is still there are, but you are depressed because you no longer have a job because your business was destroyed and your neighbors homes were destroyed.

It is essential in your life to maintain a good sense of humor and all the while allow the adversity to build additional human character to help reinforce your strength of character. Happiness is so important that it was listed in our Constitution and we have the right to pursue happiness and our forefathers understood this.

You should understand this too and understand you have the right to pursue happiness. But in order to achieve happiness you must look at the bright side of things or you will become cynical. Please consider all this in 2006.

Many people have a hobby of making jewelry and this is a good hobby because you can sell what you have made for quite a bit of money. There are many people who are willing to spend twice or three times as much as the precious stones that you put into your jewelry.

If you are considering getting into the jewelry business or if you are trying to find time to expand your business and make more jewelry so you can sell it, then perhaps during the 2006 Atlantic tropical hurricane season you can use this time while you are evacuated and cannot work or if you decide to stay behind to make jewelry.

Making jewelry can be a great business and a very fun hobby and some of the people who I have met who are experts in the field also sell their jewelry on the Internet. I have met some super people who specialize in jewelry making. Perhaps you should consider buying some jewelry from someone who has had to evacuate their home and is doing this to make extra money as a way to help those citizens of our nation who have been deprived of their jobs and forced to leave their homes. Perhaps you might consider spending the time in making some jewelry of your own. Please consider this and 2006.

If you live in a hurricane prone area and you have found yourself evacuating at least two times per year then it makes sense to put a mobile video system in your SUV. Why you ask? Well, consider the evacuation in Houston Texas during hurricane Rita, which turned at the last-minute and slammed into Louisiana’s southwestern coastline.

Some people evacuating the city said they were in traffic 15 hours just to get as far as Dallas or San Antonio. If you have a mobile video player in your SUV installed prior to the mandatory evacuation then while stuck in traffic all day and watch movies or DVDs. If you live in Florida or along the Gulf Coast of Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama or Texas you should definitely get a mobile video for your car. How much does a mobile video system costs?

Well, some of the ads that we see from Best Buy or Circuit City show a good mobile video system for his lowly as $499 and more expensive systems up into the $3000 range. Anyone who has ever been stuck in one of those colossal traffic jams trying to get away from a large category hurricane strike knows exactly what I am saying and they would also advise the purchase of a mobile video system for your car or SUV. Please consider this in 2006.

Many people who go out door camping are careful not to take any electronics with them such as a cell phone, pagers or even radios. They want to leave the hustle and bustle of the world behind them while they are camping in the wilderness. This makes a lot of sense, however it does not make too much sense during the Atlantic tropical hurricane season and you should be advised to at least take a radio and check-in once a day on the weather.

Mother nature can be ruthless during major storms and during the 2005 Atlantic tropical hurricane season we saw such storms in the fury they can provide. We also noted the 2006 Atlantic tropical hurricane season is also going to be a real big hurricane season. We must all be prepared for this and that includes outdoor enthusiasts who love the wilderness and go camping.

Even the remnants of a large tropical hurricane, as the winds die down can cause extreme flooding inland. In fact, hurricane Beta in 2005 caused over 3000 deaths in Mexico in villages up in the mountains and it barely made category 1, and the winds had died down substantially. But unfortunately it just kept bringing more and more precipitation and the mountain could not hold up. Please consider this 2006.

With all the devastation and destruction during the 2005 Atlantic hurricane season on our TV sets it is hard to maintain a positive attitude when you know that Americans just like you have lost everything along the Gulf Coast of the United States of America. Of course that was not us that lost everything but they are people just like us and we have empathy for them and we feel their pain.

Many of us have supported them with donations to help them get on with their life, although it is hard to fathom such a situation happening to you. If you live in a hurricane prone region each year you know that it is possible that a large category hurricane may strike near you and flood you out or the wind might blow your roof off and destroy your home. You must maintain a positive attitude and hope for the best, while preparing for the worst.

A positive attitude can help you get through adversities of life and a positive attitude can help you achieve your goals. How do you get a positive attitude in life? Well, it is much like considering that the glass is half full and trying to maintain an optimistic approach in your observations, experiences and endeavors. During this 2006 Atlantic tropical hurricane season I hope you will maintain a positive attitude and support your fellow Americans and pray for their welfare. Consider all this 2006.

A recent report published by the Cohen Independent Research Group positively rated Pacific Asia China Energy. The firm’s 68-page research report set three wide-ranging valuation levels as price targets for this company’s shares because of its coalbed methane concessions in China. Considerations such as the wide range of the Guizhou’s abundant gas reserves, expected prices of natural gas during the research firm’s forecast period, and discounting factors, such as the stock price’s high volatility, were included in their price targets.

Cohen Research likes PACE, the acronym for Pacific Asia China Energy, because the company has one of its concessions is in the Guizhou province of China. Estimates describe this Chinese province as hosting more than 20 percent of China’s coalbed methane (CBM) reserves. The country’s total CBM reserves have been independently estimated to exceed 31 trillion cubic feet.

Cohen assigned a long-term fair market pricing of C$1.96/share for the company based upon its reserves. This assessment was under the most pessimistic scenario. The low-case scenario included a natural gas price as low as $275 per 1000 cubic meters, and included a discount rate of 25 percent on the stock price. Cohen also reported, in the report, that at the current market price, PACE is “grossly undervalued.”

The research firm’s highest scenario for NAV was an optimistic target of C$11.56/share, based upon a natural gas pricing of $375 per 1000 cubic meters. Cohen Research used the Net Asset Value (NAV) based method, which is one of the most accepted methods to value mining companies.

The firm explained that PACE was the first Canadian publicly traded company to participate in China’s granting of CBM concessions. PACE is participating in the Baotian-Qingshan CBM project through its wholly owned subsidiary Asia Canada Energy (ACE). China’s state-owned CBM company, China United Coalbed Methane (CUCBM), granted the 970-square kilometer CBM concession in September 2005 to ACE. The Baotian-Qingshan concession is located in the CBM-rich Guizhou province.

The Cohen Research NAV levels confirm an earlier assessment by Sproule International on the Baotian-Qingshan property. Reports filed Sproule suggested three scenarios in a technical report the engineering firm released last winter. The worst-case scenario on the property showed 504 billion cubic feet for three coal seams. The high case volume scenario for seven coal seams reached as high as 11.2 trillion cubic feet. Sproule’s assessment, called the “Most Likely Case volume” estimated 5.2 trillion cubic feet. Some analysts have valued each trillion cubic feet of gas at C$1 billion market capitalization.

Cohen Research did warn of negatives in making a hypothetical Bear Case for PACE’s projects. The research team wrote, “Commercial viability has not yet been proven.” The report also pointed out that technical studies were insufficient to “accurately assess the quality of CBM” to be extracted. Current drilling is underway on both CBM concessions so we’ll discover how bullish or bearish this case might be. From what we understand, a final report may not be available until this autumn. Yes, it does take that long to properly evaluate a large CBM or gas property. A recent gas discovery by Husky Oil in China is now under review by China’s state-owned oil and gas company.

When psychologists talk about stress management they usually talk about human adversity, which causes or triggers the human emotion and sets off chemicals in the brain causing stress. Too much stress can overwhelm the human bio-system and cause conflicts with the human immune system.

You must control your stress because it also uses up minerals and vitamins in the body that your brain also needs. We can all think of certain very stressful times in our own lives as well as in the lives of others, as we watch our television sets and the events that are going all around the nation. During the 2005 Atlantic tropical hurricane season we saw people who had lost everything and that certainly must be a tremendously stressful event and nearly impossible to manage.

Yet if those people can get through that level of adversity and maintain strength of character without getting too stressed out then surely you can overcome the stress in your life. Consider if you will how those people got over their stress in those years and then consider things that bother you and how trivial they really are in the overall scheme of things.

You must work on your stress management and one way to do this is to understand that there are people just like you who we have gone through so much more. And if they can do it you can to. Please consider this in 2006.
