The American Psychological Association (APA) has pushed back against an assertion that the organization endorses polyamorous relationships after an APA task force was created to research "consensual non-monogamy."

The APA Division 44 Committee on Consensual Non-Monogamy "focuses on research, practice, and education about consensually non-monogamous relationships," according to its website.

The committee said that it "seeks to address the needs of people who practice consensual non-monogamy, including needs that may arise from the intersection of [consensually non-monogamous relationships] with their other marginalized identities."

The "five primary purposes" of APA 44 include research, psychological practice, education and training, social justice and public awareness.

A Feb. 10 article by Dr. Melissa Martin in The Published Reporter that noted the committee is "circulating a survey and a petition seeking to secure legally protected class status for individuals with multiple sex partners," and the former child therapist also speculated that APA 44 shows the APA "wants bigamy and polygamy to be legalized as group marriage."

APA Public Affairs Director Kim I. Mills pushed back against any claims that the organization supports polyamory, according to The Christian Post.

"APA divisions are quasi-independent organizations that are free to establish committees to represent and promote their specialties within psychology, using the best empirical evidence," Mills told the outlet.

"As such, they do not speak for the American Psychological Association, which does not have a policy with respect to consensual non-monogamous relationships," Mills continued.

"The only official APA policies are those that are adopted by the APA Council of Representatives, the APA's governing body of nearly 200 of the nation's leading psychologists, which meets twice a year. APA's Council of Representatives has not adopted, and has not been asked to adopt, a policy on this issue," Mills added.

APA Corporation

HOUSTON, Feb. 08, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- APA Corporation (Nasdaq: APA) today announced the successful drilling and flow testing of the Sapakara South-2 (SPS-2) appraisal well, the second appraisal well to test the previously announced discovery. The well is located approximately 4.6 kilometers (3 miles) south of the Sapakara South-1 (SPS-1) appraisal well.

SPS-2 encountered approximately 36 meters (118 feet) of net oil pay in high-quality Campano-Maastrichtian reservoir. Data collected from the flow test and subsequent pressure build-up indicated incremental connected resource of more than 200 million barrels (MMbbls) of oil in place.

“Results from the SPS-2 drilling and flow tests are consistent with our pre-drill expectations, confirm our geologic, geophysical, and reservoir models, and, importantly, add substantial resources towards a potential development,” said John J. Christmann IV, APA’s CEO and president.

Rig activity is ongoing and focused on drilling two appraisal wells at the Krabdagu discovery, which is located approximately 17 kilometers (11 miles) east of Sapakara. Krabdagu-2 is currently drilling; APA anticipates Krabdagu-3 will spud in February with a second drilling rig.

APA Suriname holds a 50% working interest in Block 58; TotalEnergies is the operator and holds the remaining 50% working interest.

The two companies are already collaborating, finding success with work from Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, Steven Rinella's 'MeatEater' universe, and 'High School,' the memoir by pop duo Tegan and Sara.

In the latest bid to break out of the mid-agency pack, APA has formed a strategic partnership with Europa Content, the boutique literary and production company founded by Marc Gerald.

The goal is to expand APA’s intellectual property and media rights division led by Steve Fisher and Debbie Deuble Hill and to increase resources for both APA and Europa Content clients and creators across all media.

Having access to a publishing house has been a key engine of growth for many agencies, allowing for cross-company collaborations and access to content and intellectual property. APA sees it as a next step as it seeks to position itself apart from the mid-agency level and attempts to position itself as an alternative to top-tier agencies such as CAA, UTA and WME.

“We are thrilled to expand our shared business with Marc and his incredible team at Europa Content,” said Kyle Loftus, head of content development at APA. “Their track record, relationships, and taste are second to none in the business and we know Europa’s clients will benefit from access to APA’s clients and multi-platform expertise. This partnership represents an organic win-win for our clients.”

Based in Brooklyn, NY, Europa Content’s mission is to help the next generation of storytellers develop premier content and pave sustainable book publishing careers. The company is known in the business for big and unconventional deals in traditional publishing as well as original scripted audio. It has also helped many clients migrate from book to screen and have sold translation rights in over forty markets.

Gerald founded Europa Content 2018 after a career that included stints in publishing, television production and representation. He became known for commissioning novellas from hip hop artists that were sold with CDs.

While the company may be new, it has already found success on numerous fronts, including in many collaborations with APA. Some of those include work from Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, Steven Rinella’s MeatEater universe, and High School, the memoir by pop duo Tegan and Sara. The latter was adapted for television and aired its first season on Amazon Freevee in October.

Other shared clients include actress and critically-acclaimed children’s book author Karyn Parson’s Sweet Blackberry Foundation, New York Times bestselling authors Ashley & Jaquavis Coleman, and multi-hyphenate performer and international bestselling author Humble the Poet.

“This strategic partnership is the perfect opportunity for Europa Content to retain our boutique approach to publishing while drawing from the collective energy of a best in class agency that allows all of our clients to benefit,” said Gerald in a statement. “We have always prided ourselves on developing and representing creators from diverse backgrounds, and this shared philosophy provides us with a unity of vision that gives this partnership purpose.”

On Europa Content’s list of bestselling and culture-defining authors are podcast host Mel Robbins, actor Kevin Hart, food personality Eddie Huang and hip-hop and musical artists Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson, Quincy Jones, and Bobby “Bobby Hundreds” Kim. Country music history podcaster Tyler Mahon Coe of Cocaine & Rhinestones is also a client.

APA has taken on a more aggressive stance in re-establishing itself as a larger presence in the agency landscape since CAA acquired ICM Partners in 2021. The agency has brought in 18 veteran agents, 12 from ICM, but also CAA proper and UTA, moves that have deepened the agencies talent list. This year alone the agency has signed actors William H. Macy, Donnie Yen, Maria Bello and John Cusack and writer-director Ariel Vromen.

APA Corp. (NASDAQ:APA) said late Thursday it successfully drilled and flow tested an appraisal well offshore Suriname in a deposit that could hold more than 200M barrels in reserves.

CONSTELLATION BRANDS, INC.

The company said the Sapakara South-2 appraisal well encountered 118 ft of net oil pay of high-quality in the Campano-Maastrichtian reservoir.

APA (APA) and 50-50 partner TotalEnergies (NYSE:TTE), the operator of the project, have drilled two appraisal wells with another two scheduled for drilling in Suriname's Block 58.

Offshore drilling in Suriname is being closely watched due to the massive discoveries made offshore neighboring Guyana, although APA (APA) and Total (TTE) ended drilling last year at another part of Block 58 after failing to find commercial oil.

The partners have announced five discoveries in Block 58 so far, which has prompted forecasts that first oil will flow in 2025 and that Suriname could produce 650K bbl/day by 2030.

APA Corp. (APA) likely will return at least 10% of its market cap back to shareholders this year, Michael Wiggins de Oliveira writes in an analysis posted recently on Seeking Alpha.
