Police in the Southern Neighbourhood Policing Team are asking members of the public for information regarding a large oil theft which occurred over the weekend beginning Friday 9th March 2012 from Billown Quarry in Billown. During this weekend the quantity of oil stolen would have meant that either one large vehicle was used or a smaller vehicle with a number of journeys having to be made.

Police Constable Gary Williams of the Southern Neighbourhood Policing Team said The type of oil that has been stolen is designed for commercial boiler systems and is not suitable for use in household heating systems. If this particular oil is used it could cause long lasting damage to your heating system as well as a significant cost to remedy the fault caused. I would ask that if anyone has any information regarding this theft to contact me at Castletown Police Station or speak with any Police Officer.

Tethys Petroleum Limited: 2011 Reserves Report

GRAND CAYMAN, CAYMAN ISLANDS--(Marketwire - March 21, 2012) - Tethys Petroleum ("Tethys" or "the Company") (TSX:TPL.TO - News)(LSE:TPL.TO - News) announces a significant increase in its reserves in oil and gas in Kazakhstan as reported in a new reserve report.

Total Net Oil and Gas Reserves (barrels of oil equivalent: BOE)

Consisting of:

Net Oil Reserves:

Net Gas Reserves:

Oil Reserves

The upgrade in oil reserves comes as a result of the successful 2011 Kazakhstan drilling campaign including the Doris appraisal wells AKD05 and AKD06, and the successful AKD03 exploration well, which discovered the Dione field.

The extensive remodeling work subsequently carried out has provided invaluable data that points to a stratigraphic channel model for the Cretaceous sandstone rather than a simple structural model. The validation of this model through further appraisal success would result in a very significant further upgrade in the reserves.

The next appraisal well, AKD07, is expected to spud in Q2 2012 and will be located to the south-east of the original AKD01 discovery well and will target 3P reserves at the Cretaceous Aptian sand level in what is believed to be a channel sand system, whilst simultaneously targeting an exciting exploration prospect (named "Dyna") that has been identified on the new seismic data from a bright amplitude anomaly at a slightly shallower level and is interpreted to be part of a different, larger sand fan system. The prospective resource for this new target will be disclosed after the completion of a new independent Kazakhstan Resource Report, which is expected to in Q2 2012.

Additional exploration/appraisal prospects have been identified using the newly interpreted 3D and 2D data. This data has led to the identification of a number of other attractive exploration prospects at the Doris reservoir levels and other horizons. All these will be included in the new resource report.

Bulldogger going to Caymans for joint investment

Rodeo: Lee Graves going for stem cell treatment Bruce Campbell/OWW

Black Diamond steer wrestler Lee Graves, here pulling down a steer to win the 2010 Calgary Stampede, plans to go to the Cayman Islands for stem cell surgery for an injured ankle.

A former Calgary Stampede champion from Black Diamond may be heading down to the Cayman Islands to invest in his future.

Black Diamond steer wrestler Lee Graves plans to have stem cells injected into his injured right ankle during a procedure in the Cayman Islands, rather than having surgery in order to get back on the rodeo circuit as quick as possible.

I hurt it at a rodeo last fall and they did a scope on it and there are some pretty good cysts on my ankle, Graves said. Im missing about 15 per cent of my ankle joint. Thats quite a bit missing from an ankle.

The process is called the Regenexx-SD procedure.

All your joints must be working when you are jumping off a horse at a near gallop and then braking while trying to wrestle a 400-pound steer to the ground.

I have blown my knee out twice, he said. Theres a lot of force on your lower limbs because youre going at a high-rate of speed and pushing on your feet trying to control 400-pounds.

Hes done well digging in his heels to pull down a steer. The 40-year-old Graves is a two-time world champion and has won the Canadian championship five times.

He is the first Canadian steer wrestler to earn more than $2-million in his career. He went over that mark when he won the 2010 Calgary Stampede.

The fabulous Cayman Islands

Grand Turk in the wondrous Caicos Islands is exciting, glamorous and fundelicious. With exotic cuisine savored to a Calypso beat in a remarkable beachside setting, Grand Turk will charm you into a genuine Caribbean mood. B. J. and I enjoyed our visit there almost to the maximum. We gathered seashells from the adorable beach only to discover that we could not bring them aboard our elegant ocean liner, the Westerdam. Disappointed, we deposited our pretty seashell collection on the dock before boarding our cruiser.

Sailing on the Westerdam was smooth. This was our fifth cruise to the Caribbean and the glossy sea had never been more agreeable. We joined other gleeful voyagers on the impressive promenade deck to delight in the awesome Caribbean panorama, the balmy breezes, music and the tantalizing aroma emanating from the poolside grills.

Nestled snugly in the in the calm, turquoise waters of the Western Caribbean south of Cuba, lies the peaceful British Overseas Territory known as the Cayman Islands. Consisting of three islands just 480 miles south of Miami, Grand Cayman, Cayman Brac, and Little Cayman are pieces of paradise in the Caribbean.

The Cayman Islands offer something few destinations can matchexquisite natural beauty infused with commitment to making your visit a Caribbean dream come true. There is a barefoot elegance that promises to make your stay truly funtabulous. Grand Cayman, Little Grand Cayman, and Cayman Brac provide the activities and attractions to make ones Caribbean island experience larger than life.

Add to that, one of Holland Americas newer luxury liners, the Westerdam, to sail the ocean blue and you are whisked into a world of delightful fantasy.

Our stop is the largest of the three-island group the exquisite Grand Cayman--a garden in the Caribbean. The name Cayman is derived from a Carib word for crocodile, although the Caymans were first called Las Tortugas by Columbus when he observed in 1503, the hundreds of turtles living on these uninhabited islands.

The Cayman Islands, a British Crown Colony since 1670, were settled by a motley collection of British Army deserters, shipwrecked sailors, retired pirates and African slaves who gained freedom when ships carrying them foundered on Cayman reefs.

B. J. and I stood anxiously on deck as the captain skillfully maneuvered the Westerdam into position off Grand Cayman and our Port-of-Entry, George Town. We were aghast at the stunning scene spreading before us. We absorbed the amazing view for a few minutes before going below to board a tender bound for the island.

Visitors are ferried ashore in large tenders. Tenders are boats designed to carry passengers to shore through shallow waters where the big ocean liners cannot go. The tenders can pose a crisis to B. J. or anyone else inclined to seasickness. Rough water causes the tenders to bob like corks.

The water was tranquil that day though and the short trip from ship to shore was fun.
