Currently, the retail price of fuel felt. The price dropped up to 105 U.S. dollars per barrel. It is associated with less concern about possible military conflicts in the Middle East . Drivers should enjoy long-term downward trend in oil prices and Ukrainians also. "This is due to the fact that countries such as the United States , which is a major oil consumer, a large amount of its oil consumption fulfilling by shale gas. Currently, a number of vehicles (buses, trucks) in the U.S. are no longer driven by fuel made ​​ from petroleum, but LPG. This reduces the overall demand for oil in the world “, - explained the N. Mačiulis , Swed bank analyst. Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovich said that the country will reduce purchases of the Russian gas.

Although the company Chevron was recognized the winner of the shale gas exploration , the company refuzed to paticipated in the shale gas exploration in Lithuania. The reasons for refuzal were not alone. In the half of the yaer was changed about 25 lows in governing this activity. The company has to invest about 80 milion lt in the procejct. The law changing will incrise investments and exploration will take longe time. Some Lithuanian MPs sudgested 40% tax for the shale gas and for the oil and gas 25%. Chevron said that charges will be dicriminatory. It is clearly big los for the Lithuania. It remains unclear how much that tip of gas we have. Even posibility to extract small amount of shale gas would make better bargaining position for Lithuania for talking with Gazprom. But this was lost. Theris no doubt that Russia tried to impect this proses. The press was flued with misleading information. Green organizations was used to focus public against Chevron. In this sence necesarelly t...

Hello dear readers I was a little bit away from the web publishing. But now I will take the job. I decided to spice up the site; it will be not only published information and discussion about technology, but also the    experience of the trips. So lest start our journey. This time is Rome .

It is the capital of the Italy , the country where lives about 60, 5 million people. It is the member of G8, most developed industrial countries.

  Svenske sosiologen Charles Wolfson, som bodde I Litauen over ti år, har vart i konferanse om utvandring. Den konferanse var hold i Vilnius, april 2013. Jeg har oversett noen av hans meninger, jeg er enig med de fleste av dem. Han sier at arbeidsmarkedet er fragmentert i Litauen i tre deler:    -Det er offentlige, som bor ganske bra, de absorberer EU penger.    -En liten   gruppe av supper rike oligarker,    -Og privat sektore arbeidere, som er livet ikke så godt. På grunn av denne situasjonen antall personen i arbeidsmarkedet flytett til ”skygge” eller jobbe svart og motta   ulovlig lønn . Eller jobbe lovlig men en del av lønnen blir i ”konvoluten”. Dette betyr at noen av de ansatte i Litauen er helt ubeskyttet, avhenger av sine sjefer god vilje. De jobber overtid uten den minste mulighet for dem at det skal bli redferdig kompensert. Kanskje forskeren skjener ikke at det er en gruppe av arbeidere som jobber i utla...

Kids from Kaunas Valdorf school at the celebration  Lithuania celebrated Mardi Gras (Uzgavenes it is Lithuanian name) on Tuesday. What kind of celebration it is ? Mardi Gras is a traditional winter festival, which aims to banish the winter.   This is one of the funniest celebrations for me. It is not just a Lithuanian festival , it is celebrated in other European countries. Clearly it is more rural cultural phenomenon , but usually is celebrated in the cities. Immediately after Mardi Gras begins Lent and fasting time . Celebrations participants dress up , it is important to use non-routine clods. Faces are concealed by masks , which is constructed of paper, cardboard or wood . All the most important players in the Mardi Gras were taken from daily rural environment . Usually masks had old, ugly human traits. Usually man liked to dress as woman , and women – often as men . The people depicted and mythol...

Taken from asgbielsko.lenart.pl The problem arose between  two countries, Ukraine and Russia. This problem is not new. The fact is that Ukraine last year consumed less gas and therefore they planing less to buy from Russia. They had to buy gas  more, by prior arrangement. According to the 2009 agreement  between Gazprom and Naftogaz, Ukraine has to buy from Gazprom at 52 billion. cubic meters of gas per year.  Ukraine bought  only 32.9 billion. cubic meters of gas last year. Can you imagine dear reader, that in order to shop in the supermarket, you will need first  to sign contract with a supermarket. In t hat contract it will be told, that you will be able to shop, but you know, you have to spend not less than 100 U.S. dollars, either you are not welcome. Well if I am very hungry and not very prudent, I can sign a contract. But at least in the western world such agreements exist, or not? I'm staying Lithuanian themselves and a...

Lithuanian Prime Minister A.Butkevicius during his stay in Estonia in 2013 january, said that it would be interesting for the all three Baltic countries to have their own airline company. "I propose the creation of aviation company to carry out a joint project and be able to financially survive, because of having the airline, which, for example, can work profitably only in Lithuania - it is hardly imaginable." Spoke A.Butkevicius.   Lithuania had the aviation company, not too long ago, that went bankrupt. It should be noted that both Latvia and Estonia have their own airlines. But both of them are unprofitable. Latvia is  looking currently for a strategic investor in loss-making airlines "airBaltic". With the growing losses of "Estonian Air" also started discussions in Estonia on "Estonian Air"'s future. It is not clear what  expect Butkevicius, because Latvians certainly will not  establish another company, having considerable trouble w...
