PNG national flag carrier ,Air Niugini has advised the travelling public that due to an ongoing dispute between Puma Energy and the Bank of PNG, Puma has decided to restrict the supply of fuel to Air Niugini and all other airlines effective from today.  This restriction applies to Port Moresby and all the airports around PNG. Unfortunately, there is no alternative supplier of aviation fuel in most airports, including Port Moresby. Consequently, Air Niugini is forced to announce that the remaining domestic flights for today (Thursday 1 December) have been cancelled due to PUMA Energy’s refusal to supply Jet A1 fuel to the airlines. The airline is also cancelling half of it’s domestic flights for Friday 2nd December to reflect these restrictions imposed by Puma. These cancelations will have to be ongoing each day until Puma’s restrictions are removed.  Air Niugini will endeavour to advise passengers in advance of their flight being cancelled, however due to the difficulties of predicting

We love the spring because it is a great time to asses our garden for the coming season and is a wonderful excuse for us to add new plants for our exotic garden. So we have pulled a selection of the plants we have chosen to solidify the our tropical effect garden which we hope you will enjoy. But don’t worry as we probably adding new specimens throughout the year. A number of the plants discussed here are those we have propagated ourselves or purchased online from specialist nursery’s. This is because they are very difficult to find at you local garden centre but you can usually find what you need by googling it even though it may arrive much smaller than you would expect despite the generally high postage costs!

Bitcoin mining is in short the hash-rate race between power-hungry computers. These machines require a lot of electric power to continue solving/computing complex mathematical puzzles. These cryptographic puzzles are created using memory intensive algorithm called the Proof-of-Work (PoW). Miners validate transactions and add the next block on blockchain, thus keeping the system secure and running. As a reward the miners collect $1000-$3000 in transaction fees from all validated transactions inside a block and also wins 12.5 BTC for mining the block. 2.24 2.23 2.22 2.21 2.20 2.19 2.18 2.17 2.16 2.15 2.14 2.13 2.12 2.11 2.10 2.9 2.8 2.3 2.4 2.5 2.6 2.7 2.2 2.1 2.0 1.0 Due to increased competition, the difficulty of mining has increased to such an extent that now you require specialized hardware to achieve enough hash rate to at least participate in the system. In 2009, 100 bitcoins could easily be mined within a day using CPU cycles of a simple home PC, but then as mining diffi
