Have you ever felt insecure in your home, or that it lacks privacy? I don't blame you if you have. In Utah, new homes are not required to be fenced. It is a big safety hazard not to have a fence around your house, especially if you have animals or small children. Without fences, anyone can walk up to your property and steal from your backyard.

I am living with a friend right now and she is going through the long process of installing a fence. My friend has been working on it for almost a month and still nothing has happened. There are significant HOA and city requirements that builders can navigate easily, but that are much more difficult for a homeowner. I understand that we Americans like to make our own decisions, but some things are just better for everybody.

With a fence, you are more protected, you have more privacy and your kids and animals will be able to run around the backyard without you worrying. I think that Utah municipalities should require fences to be built for all new homes.

The San Diego Padres could finally be removing the term "Petcoed" from the vocabulary of National League hitters.

Padres interim CEO Tom Garfinkel said Tuesday the Padres are officially considering moving in the fences at Petco Park.

"We're open-minded and we're seriously considering it," said Garfinkel. "I do believe it is too extreme right now. It will still be a pitcher's ballpark. But a hitter should be rewarded if he crushes it. And if a team is down 4-0, they should feel there is some hope. It's just too extreme."

Garfinkel's comments Tuesday represent a major change by the Padres, who fell to the Nationals 3-1 Tuesday.

Former CEO Jeff Moorad vowed the outfield dimensions at Petco Park would not be altered as long as he controlled the club. But Moorad resigned as CEO last month after the minority group he led was rebuffed by Major League Baseball in its attempts to be approved as the Padres owners.

Garfinkel said the Padres have already been in contact with MLB about the protocol to be followed for shortening the fences -- primarily in right field and right-center.

"We'd have to submit plans by the end of the season," said Garfinkel, who said the Padres have not decided on the distance that the fences would be shortened. "I don't think a final decision needs to be made until October.

"There are a lot of things to consider. We can't change the air and the atmospheric conditions. This ballpark plays different at night than it does during the day. It plays different in the spring than it does in late summer. We have to get it right. We are studying everything. There are still going to be some nights when the conditions would still be such that it's going to be hard to hit a homer no matter what the distance is to the fences.

"But a solidly hit ball should be rewarded. Baseball is a match between the pitcher and the hitter. We've seen a number of times here where the hitter wins that battle and gets nothing to show for it. It should play fair. Four runs should not be an impossible deficit to overcome."

There have been at least two previous studies made on shortening the fences at Petco Park.

A man has been charged with multiple driving and assault offences after allegedly taking police on a chase through the northern suburbs on Tuesday night.

Police attempted to stop a Nissan Patrol travelling west along Beach Road in Mirrabooka about 11.20pm but the driver allegedly refused to stop, police spokeswomans Susan Usher said.

The driver allegedly evaded police through several suburbs before smashing through a gate to a property on Joyce Road, Gnangara.

The Patrol was driven around the home and through paddocks, before returning to the carriageway on Facey Road - allegedly by smashing through an electronic gate. The vehicle then became stuck when the driver allegedly attempted to enter bushland at the end of Facey Road by going through metal gates and rocks.

Salt Lake City, UT /PRNewswire/ - FX Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ: FXEN), today announced that drilling is underway at the Karmin-1 well in the Company's Fences license in western Poland. The well is a planned test of a Rotliegend sandstone target at an estimated depth of 2,460 meters. The prospect is located on trend with the Zaniemysl-3 and Roszkow wells, two of the Company's highest producing discoveries.

The Karmin-1 well is the first of three wells in the Fences area that are planned to begin drilling operations prior to the end of 2014. All of these wells are 51% owned and operated by PGNiG.

In addition to the Fences wells, FX Energy also plans to begin drilling two wells in the Company's 100% owned Edge license in western Poland. The Edge license covers approximately 730,000 acres.

About FX Energy FX Energy is an independent oil and gas exploration and production company with production in the U.S. and Poland. The Company's main exploration and production activity is focused on Poland's Permian Basin where the gas-bearing Rotliegend sandstone is a direct analog to the Southern Gas Basin offshore England. The Company trades on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol FXEN. Website http://www.fxenergy.com.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This report contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees. For example, exploration, drilling, development, construction, or other projects or operations may be subject to the successful completion of technical work; environmental, governmental or partner approvals; equipment availability; or other things that are or may be beyond the control of the Company. Operations that are anticipated, planned, or scheduled may be changed, delayed, take longer than expected, fail to accomplish intended results, or not take place at all.

In carrying out exploration, it is necessary to identify and evaluate risks and potential rewards. This identification and evaluation is informed by science but remains inherently uncertain. Subsurface features that appear to be possible traps may not exist at all, may be smaller than interpreted, may not contain hydrocarbons, may not contain the quantity or quality estimated, or may have reservoir conditions that do not allow adequate recovery to render a discovery commercial or profitable. Forward-looking statements about the size, potential, or likelihood of discovery respecting exploration targets are certainly not guarantees of discovery, the actual presence or recoverability of hydrocarbons, or the ability to produce in commercial or profitable quantities. Estimates of potential typically do not take into account all the risks of drilling and completion nor do they take into account the fact that hydrocarbon volumes are never 100% recoverable. Such estimates are part of the complex process of trying to measure and evaluate risk and reward in an uncertain industry.

Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties outside FX Energy's control. Actual events or results may differ materially from the forward-looking statements. For a discussion of additional contingencies and uncertainties to which information respecting future events is subject, see FX Energy's SEC reports or visit FX Energy's website at http://www.fxenergy.com.
