Home » How You Can Help » Online Action Center » Preserving Texas » Other Actions Petition to Gov. Perry: Don't Sell Christmas Mountains On Friday, the National Park Service announced they would like to add the Christmas Mountains to Big Bend National Park. Big Bend's superintendent asked Land Commissioner Jerry Patterson to delay the sale of the Christmas Mountains to private interests in order to give them time to put together a proposal. Unfortunately, Patterson turned the park service down, saying he didn't want them to manage the property unless they changed their policy that prohibits concealed hand guns on the property. This is a completely unrelated issue and shouldn't stand in the way of the protection of the Christmas Mountains. The good news is that Patterson is only one of three votes on the School Land Board, the body which will decide what to do with the Christmas Mountains. The other two members are appointees of Gov. Rick Perry and Attorney General Greg Abbott. Please sign our petition to Gov. Perry and Attorney General Abbott asking them to direct their appointees to stop the sale of the Christmas Mountains. Petition text: "Dear Gov. Perry and Attorney General Abbott, Please direct your appointees on the School Land Board to stop the sale of the Christmas Mountains to private interests. The mountains should become part of Big Bend National Park, as the original donors intended."

Early Bird & Special Promotions Click Here to Learn More November 13-14 Scottsdale, AZ Hedging and Deal Structuring in Natural Gas Natural gas has a unique profile of risks, and with it an equally unique array of products and concepts to deal with them. For energy professionals grounded in the basic concepts of risk management, this course probes into how those tools and concepts can be applied specifically to deal with natural gas. It also demonstrates how the physical processes of transportation, storage, and generation interface with their financial counterparts; basis spreads, calendar spreads, and spark spreads, to create useful risk methodologies. It is the understanding of this integration of physical and financial that is key to optimal performance in the natural gas and other energy businesses. November 15-16 Scottsdale, AZ Realizing Maximum Value from Generation The real optionality embedded in power generation is at the same time both more complex than conventionally traded puts and calls as well as potentially much more valuable. Until recently, owners of generation have been content with a passive strategy toward these options waiting/hoping for prices to move into the money. Increasingly both merchants and utilities have begun to approach these real option positions proactively, drawing on the tools and methods employed by professional option dealers to extract maximum value from options, techniques that allow value to be realized regardless of ultimate price levels. This seminar explores these approaches in some depth while considering their applicability and limitations for power generators.

Anastasia Ordonez in California describes the impact of the governators veto of a health care bill on those like Yolanda, whose lack of insurance meant an early death. You think your phone bill is outrageous? The city of Greenfield, Mass., could be out as much as $5.4 million after Verizon announced its moving a major call center out of town. This move tops the greed charts because after Verizon promised to make the town a mega-center, Greenfield not only exempted Verizon from city taxes, it helped the company hire 60 workers, acquire land and pay the lease on a big parking lot. One study estimates Verizons move could cost the community 181 jobs. Talk about a bad connection. Quick Poll: Will you do volunteer work for your preferred candidate or party in 2008? Got comments?

WHAT TO SAY TO THE STAFFER WHO ANSWERS: As a constituent, I'm paying close attention to the progress of the final energy bill in Congress. This is our chance to put America on the path to developing a new energy policy for new jobs in a new economy, and a cleaner future. The final version of the energy bill must include critical provisions from both the House and the Senate versions of the bill, like renewable electricity (RES) and fuel efficiency standards. The final energy bill must include the RES standards in the House bill, requiring utilities to generate 15% of their power from renewable sources like wind and solar by 2020. It also needs to include fuel efficiency standards in the Senate bill, which increases the average mileage of cars and trucks to 35 miles per gallon by 2020. Finally, the final energy bill must include the House provision that reduces tax breaks for Big Oil and establishes incentives for renewable energy.
