Deep-Water Processes and Facies Models: Implications for Sandstone Petroleum Reservoirs, Volume 5 (Handbook of Petroleum Exploration and Production)
Deep-Water Processes and Facies Models: Implications for Sandstone Petroleum Reservoirs, Volume 5 (Handbook of Petroleum Exploration and Production) This rock-based book is an attempt to link deep-water process sedimentology with sandstone petroleum reservoirs. In presenting a consistent process interpretation, the author has relied on his description and interpretation of core and outcrop (1:20 to 1:50 scale) from 35 case studies (which include 32 petroleum reservoirs), totaling more than 30,000 feet (9,145 m), carried out during the past 30 years (1974-2004). This book should serve as an important source of information for students on history, methodology, first principles, advanced concepts, controversies, and practical applications on deep-water sedimentology and petroleum geology

* Discusses the link between deep-water process sedimentology and petroleum geology

* Addresses criteria for recognizing deposits of gravity-driven, thermohaline-driven, wind-driven, and tide-driven processes in deep-water environments
* Provides head-on approach to resolve controversial process-related problems

Resolved Question: Is "man made global warming" a new Religion?
Americans have been rope-a-doped into believing that global warming is going to destroy our planet. Scientists who have been skeptical about manmade global warming have been called traitors or handmaidens of big oil. The Washington Post asserted on May 28, 2006 that there were only "a handful of skeptics" of manmade climate fears. Bill Blakemore on Aug. 30, 2006 said, "After extensive searches, ABC News has found no such (scientific) debate on global warming." U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change Executive Secretary Yvo de Boer said it was "criminally irresponsible" to ignore the urgency of global warming. U.N. special climate envoy Dr. Gro Harlem Brundtland on May 10, 2007 declared the climate debate "over" and added "it's completely immoral, even, to question" the U.N.'s scientific "consensus." In July 23, 2007, CNN's Miles O'Brien said, "The scientific debate is over." Earlier he said that scientific skeptics of manmade catastrophic global warming "are bought and paid for by the fossil fuel industry, usually." The global warming scare has provided a field day for politicians and others who wish to control our lives. After all, only the imagination limits the kind of laws and restrictions that can be written in the name of saving the planet. Recently, more and more scientists are summoning up the courage to speak out and present evidence against the global warming rope-a-dope. Atmospheric scientist Stanley B. Goldenberg of the Hurricane Research Division of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said, "It is a blatant lie put forth in the media that makes it seem there is only a fringe of scientists who don't buy into anthropogenic global warming." Dr. Goldenberg has the company of at least 650 noted scientists documented in the recently released U.S. Senate Minority Report: "More Than 650 International Scientists Dissent Over Man-Made Global Warming Claims: Scientists Continue to Debunk 'Consensus' in 2008." The scientists, not environmental activists, include Ivar Giaever, Nobel Laureate in physics, who said, "I am a skeptic ? Global warming has become a new religion." Dr. Kiminori Itoh, an environmental physical chemist, said warming fears are the "worst scientific scandal in the history ? When people come to know what the truth is, they will feel deceived by science and scientists." "So far, real measurements give no ground for concern about a catastrophic future warming," said Dr. Jarl R. Ahlbeck, a chemical engineer at Abo Akademi University in Finland, author of 200 scientific publications and former Greenpeace member. Atmospheric physicist James A. Peden, formerly of the Space Research and Coordination Center in Pittsburgh, said, "Many (scientists) are now searching for a way to back out quietly (from promoting warming fears), without having their professional careers ruined." The fact of the matter is an increasing amount of climate research suggests a possibility of global cooling. Geologist Dr. Don J. Easterbrook, Emeritus Professor at Western Washington University says, "Recent solar changes suggest that it could be fairly severe, perhaps more like the 1880 to 1915 cool cycle than the more moderate 1945-1977 cool cycle. A more drastic cooling, similar to that during the Dalton and Maunder minimums, could plunge the Earth into another Little Ice Age, but only time will tell if that is likely." Geologist Dr. David Gee, chairman of the science committee of the 2008 International Geological Congress, currently at Uppsala University in Sweden asks, "For how many years must the planet cool before we begin to understand that the planet is not warming? For how many years must cooling go on?"

Resolved Question: What do some of the world's foremost scientists say about Global Warming?
?I am a skeptic?Global warming has become a new religion.? - Nobel Prize Winner for Physics, Ivar Giaever. ?Since I am no longer affiliated with any organization nor receiving any funding, I can speak quite frankly?.As a scientist I remain skeptical.? - Atmospheric Scientist Dr. Joanne Simpson, the first woman in the world to receive a PhD in meteorology and formerly of NASA who has authored more than 190 studies and has been called ?among the most preeminent scientists of the last 100 years.? Warming fears are the ?worst scientific scandal in the history?When people come to know what the truth is, they will feel deceived by science and scientists.? - UN IPCC Japanese Scientist Dr. Kiminori Itoh, an award-winning PhD environmental physical chemist. ?The IPCC has actually become a closed circuit; it doesn?t listen to others. It doesn?t have open minds? I am really amazed that the Nobel Peace Prize has been given on scientifically incorrect conclusions by people who are not geologists,? - Indian geologist Dr. Arun D. Ahluwalia at Punjab University and a board member of the UN-supported International Year of the Planet. ?The models and forecasts of the UN IPCC "are incorrect because they only are based on mathematical models and presented results at scenarios that do not include, for example, solar activity.? - Victor Manuel Velasco Herrera, a researcher at the Institute of Geophysics of the National Autonomous University of Mexico ?It is a blatant lie put forth in the media that makes it seem there is only a fringe of scientists who don?t buy into anthropogenic global warming.? - U.S Government Atmospheric Scientist Stanley B. Goldenberg of the Hurricane Research Division of NOAA. ?Even doubling or tripling the amount of carbon dioxide will virtually have little impact, as water vapour and water condensed on particles as clouds dominate the worldwide scene and always will.? ? . Geoffrey G. Duffy, a professor in the Department of Chemical and Materials Engineering of the University of Auckland, NZ. ?After reading [UN IPCC chairman] Pachauri's asinine comment [comparing skeptics to] Flat Earthers, it's hard to remain quiet.? - Climate statistician Dr. William M. Briggs, who specializes in the statistics of forecast evaluation, serves on the American Meteorological Society's Probability and Statistics Committee and is an Associate Editor of Monthly Weather Review. ?For how many years must the planet cool before we begin to understand that the planet is not warming? For how many years must cooling go on?" - Geologist Dr. David Gee the chairman of the science committee of the 2008 International Geological Congress who has authored 130 plus peer reviewed papers, and is currently at Uppsala University in Sweden. ?Gore prompted me to start delving into the science again and I quickly found myself solidly in the skeptic camp?Climate models can at best be useful for explaining climate changes after the fact.? - Meteorologist Hajo Smit of Holland, who reversed his belief in man-made warming to become a skeptic, is a former member of the Dutch UN IPCC committee. ?Many [scientists] are now searching for a way to back out quietly (from promoting warming fears), without having their professional careers ruined.? - Atmospheric physicist James A. Peden, formerly of the Space Research and Coordination Center in Pittsburgh. ?Creating an ideology pegged to carbon dioxide is a dangerous nonsense?The present alarm on climate change is an instrument of social control, a pretext for major businesses and political battle. It became an ideology, which is concerning.? - Environmental Scientist Professor Delgado Domingos of Portugal, the founder of the Numerical Weather Forecast group, has more than 150 published articles. ?CO2 emissions make absolutely no difference one way or another?.Every scientist knows this, but it doesn?t pay to say so?Global warming, as a political vehicle, keeps Europeans in the driver?s seat and developing nations walking barefoot.? - Dr. Takeda Kunihiko, vice-chancellor of the Institute of Science and Technology Research at Chubu University in Japan. ?The [global warming] scaremongering has its justification in the fact that it is something that generates funds.? - Award-winning Paleontologist Dr. Eduardo Tonni, of the Committee for Scientific Research in Buenos Aires and head of the Paleontology Department at the University of La Plata. # Note a recurring theme. About half of the climate scientists do not support the Global Warming hysteriia, and that half tends to be the elite minds. The bottom feeders are the ones who believe this crap. I'd rather believe upper echelon minds than the intellectual gutter trash, basically. (more...)

Resolved Question: Christians Who Believe in Theistic evolution ?
As a theistic evolutionist, you believe that God used evolution to bring about the world as we know it. You believe that He began with the big bang, then gradually formed galaxies, stars, and planets like our own, the earth. Then He created life, (or allowed it to evolve from chemicals) and endowed that life with the capacity to progress upwards from amoeba to man. You believe that the ?days? of Genesis 1 and Exodus 20:11 were long periods of time?millions or even billions of years (or that they don?t represent timespans at all), because that seems to fit the geological and radiometric dating evidence best. So, you interpret the Scriptures according to the current scientific paradigm, or framework, of origins. If you?re a theistic evolutionist, here?s a problem for you to consider. It?s called the future. Following are a few passages and ideas which need to be addressed: 1# 1 Corinthians 15:51?53. If God needed millions of years to ?create? our first human bodies, which were already ravaged by disease and death, how will He be able to give us new, incorruptible bodies ?in the twinkling of an eye? when Christ returns? 2# Acts 3:21 refers to a future time when everything will be restored. For the theistic evolutionist (or the closely related ?long-age creationist?) this should logically mean a restoration back to billions of years of death and suffering. The Bible in fact indicates that all things will be restored to a situation in which death (the ?last enemy??1 Corinthians 15:26) shall be no more. Why? Because there will be ?no more curse? (Revelation 22:3). 3# Isaiah 34:4 and Revelation 6:13?14. These passages refer to a future time of cataclysmic changes in the heavens. Stars falling from the sky, and the heavens rolling up, do not sound like slow processes needing millions of years. Long-agers insist that it had to take 15 billion years for the light from the most distant objects to reach us here on earth. Obviously, it will not take 15 billion years for the heavens to ?roll together as a scroll.? So perhaps we?ve not yet fully understood the mechanics of starlight and time, and that 15 billion year figure needs several zeros lopped off. 4# 2 Peter 3:6?12 also poses a number of ?future? problems for theistic evolutionists. We know that the waters of the biblical Flood increased for at least 150 days (Genesis 7:24). Clearly, these Flood days must have been literal, 24-hour periods (though undoubtedly they seemed longer to Noah et al!) So, the first problem is this: How long will the future destruction of the heavens and earth by fire last? Millions of years? Do you believe that this refers to the theory that the universe will slowly contract under its own gravity (the ?big crunch?) until a new big bang occurs? Verse 10 says ?the heavens shall pass away with a great noise.? Once again, that sounds rather sudden and final. The ?heavens? here means the visible universe. Then there?s verse eight, ?One day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.? If each ?day? of Genesis chapter one lasted millions of years, and the ?day? here is literally a thousand years long, all language loses its meaning! Obviously, the best way to understand this verse is in the context of God?s patience. It has nothing to do with the actual length of biblical days, but stresses that God is outside of time. A day is not equal to a thousand years?it is (to God) like a thousand years?and vice versa, a thousand years is like one day to God. 5# 2 Peter 3:13. Now we turn to the ?new heavens and a new earth.? If God needed billions of years to create the first heavens and earth, how long will it take to make new ones? What will believers who have been saved and have received new bodies be doing all that time? Are you impressed by a God who needs zillions of years to get the job done? Finally, there is at least one more problem. If God used evolution in the past, will He still use it in the future? When he re-creates the bodies of the redeemed through evolutionary processes, will we look like those almond-eyed, spindly-legged creatures of the movies and TV? We must be consistent when we ?interpret? the Scriptures. If God created everything in six days in the past, as a plain reading of the Genesis account would demand, He?ll have no problem re-creating it all quickly in the future, as a plain reading of the passages cited above would imply. If He created Adam in a fraction of a day, and Eve out of Adam, He?ll have no problem granting new bodies ?in the twinkling of an eye? in the future. If death entered the world on a specific day in the past, it can be abolished within a day in the future. To my fellow christians who believe in theistic evolution, please enlighten me .......... Thank you in advance for your explanation. Gbu @ HLT..........be smart, please answer my questions..... I need your explanation not your short answer. :). (more...)
