“Prelude” To A New Technology In Floating Liquefied Natural Gas Processing

News Analysis: “Prelude” To A New Technology In Floating Liquefied Natural Gas Processing  by Royal Dutch Shell is a 488 Meter (1,601 feet) Vessel (built by Samsung Shipyard In South Korea). This Vessel will be employed in the Indian Ocean offshore of Australia.

Royal Dutch Shell is to be commended for pursuing this State-of-the-Art Technology. Now, every effort should be made to let the World Petrochemical Users know of such a Reality; as well as the Great Expense Ventured in creating the “Prelude”. After doing so, perhaps Politicians will diminish their Sophomoric Rhetoric about the cost of Petrochemicals.

Billions of Dollars invested on  Craft as the “Prelude” are not ‘sourced out of thin air’. They are derived from the results of ” Expensive Upstream (to this Vessel’s Operations) and Downstream Production” and Sales to Customers Worldwide. Reality.

Sumatran Tsunamis “Do Not Work To A Clock”

News Analysis: Sumatran Tsunamis “Do Not Work To A Clock” as some people had suggested.

Recent Scientific findings in a Cave in Sumatra, and subsequent analysis, shown that these Catastrophic Events of Earth Seismic Effects occur at irregular intervals.  People should be prepared for such happenings. They should  not assume that Tsunamis will take place in the distant future; they may be incorrect (to their chagrin).

One Word to a Wise Man is Sufficient.

Azerbaijan’s Oil Production Will Be Rising

News Analysis: Azerbaijan’s Oil Production Will Be Rising during the next several years Government Authorities estimate. The 39+ Million Tons of Oil produced so far, in 2013, will increase in 2014 and 2015.

Azerbaijan has a 5 Billion Barrel Deposit in the Caspian Sea. It can draw from it to increase even more than its predicted estimates of future production if its leaders so choose. 

Azerbaijanis are fortunate to have “Oil Deposits Readily Available”. Many other Countries have not been so “Blessed”. Reality.

★ Computer Climate Warming Models: Garbage In; Garbage Out (GIGO)?

Premium News Analysis: Computer Climate Warming Models: Garbage In; Garbage Out ‘GIGO’ is debated by many familiar with Software Information ‘Frailties’. A Computer digests and expounds conclusions from inputs received based on its Programs which  contain Processing  Algorithms. As such, problems immediately arise as to data input by  Computer users.

When NO ONE agrees on a Starting Point to be used as a ‘Baseline Number’, how can  “Downstream” data regurgitated by a Computer be held to be Inviolate? For example, does one start a Baseline date for Weather Change at 2000 BC,1000 AD, 1560 AD, 1970 AD, or when? How are naturally occurring Methane releases by plants in to the atmosphere to be valued? What about Methane released by cows? The Variables which contribute to weather change are Innumerable. To aver that inputs for a Computer Model have been correctly deduced for ALL of the possible interacting numerical variables of World Weather CORRECTLY is Laughable. Only Politicians, many of whom do not know any better, can sign up to such brash Ignorance.

Science is based on the “Principle of Refutation”. While different Arguments may lead to the Same or different Conclusion or the Similar Arguments lead to the Same Conclusion, the Validity of the Conclusion may still be Suspect. The Conclusion derived from the Facts are where men Error. The aforementioned Arguments may be based on a Misinterpretation of the Facts. Science continually: Tests the Facts; the Assumptions that were used to establish an Argument as to what the Facts really mean;  and, the Veracity of the Conclusion itself. If the Epistemology is wrong, Science will refute the Conclusion and start over again. That is the beauty of the Scientific Method. Brilliant Scientists do not take themselves too seriously; they are Always Learning, so they remain Humble.

Many people are suspect about “Climate Change” or “Global Warming”  as being anything other than Natural, nothing more.  The Debate will continue since Man does not yet have enough evidence to conclude: if it is ONLY a Natural Process; a Man-Made Process; or Both.

In the Long Term, the Scientific Method will deliver the Truth to Mankind about this Important Subject.

Nothing is Constant In Nature.  Reality.

Mongolia’s Massive Recycling Means “Millions”

News Analysis: Mongolia’s Massive Recycling Means “Millions” of Dollars being earned by the Nation.  Hundreds of Thousands of Automobiles will be headed for recycling (once the facilities are built and employees trained for the task). Old Boilers, Refrigerators, and Television Sets  will join the Automobiles in their destruction.  This Recycling Project is of a Massive Scope; It has plenty of product suited for elimination therein.

Entrepreneurs who might be able to use any of the By-Products emanating from the process may want to consider creating or “Staking” an existing company for the purpose. The friendly Mongolian Government facilitates Investors in such projects, many people say.

The World Belongs to the Aggressive. Reality.

Russian Far East (RFE) Development Is A National Priority

News Analysis: Russian Far East (RFE) Development Is A National Priority Stated President Vladimir Putin. To help facilitate investments in the area, many Tax and other Incentives will be offered.  The ‘RFE’ is a 5.75+ Million Square Miles “Horn of Plenty” in terms of Mineral and Timber Assets.

Manufacturers may want to think about setting up Production Facilities in the ‘RFE’ since they would be close to the sources of their Raw Materials as well as a very large customer base in Asia.

Additionally, a large Educated and Intelligent Labor Pool is available for Manufacturing (as it is for  Research and Development activities). Multi-Lingual Russians make communications easy for Foreign Investors.

Intelligent Investors should seriously consider undertaking “financial activities” in the ‘RFE’ since the Russian Government is ‘Extending its Hand’ to Entrepreneurs with Vision.  A Resolute Leader, as is Mr. Putin, will assure success to those do.

The ‘RFE’ will be a Winning Situation for Investors, Manufacturers, and Russians. Reality.

Honduran Bananas Earn Bigger “Bucks”

News Analysis: Honduran Bananas Earn Bigger “Bucks” through increased production and sales. Production increases occurred due to increased Fertilization and Pest Control. Increased Banana sales to the United States was due in part, some say, to the “Potassium Sticks” Concept of Bananas, health-wise. In addition to Bananas, Coffee is also a big export item for Honduras. In Eastern Honduras, Fine Cigars (fabricated in the City of Danli – The City of the Hills) are exported world-wide.

Honduras has much to offer Investors who have agricultural interest for their portfolios. Good Soil, Labor Force, Topography, and Weather all bode well for such investments.

Spain To Have A Cold Summer in 2014?

News Analysis: Spain To Have A Cold Summer In 2014 is a question the Spanish Public is asking. Climatologists suggest that below normal temperatures will be realized in the country at that time. Climate Change is at work thus causing a temperature anomaly such as this. The event may be Europe-Wide in effect, some say.

Wise Investors can profit from such situations. They should consider who benefits from such temperature occurrences during the Summer Months. Seeking out the profitable enterprises which gain, under such weather conditions,  will lead them to financial benefit.

Banks: Too Big To Fail; Managements Do Not Go To Jail

News Analysis: Banks Too Big To Fail;  Managements Do Not Go To Jail since the Regulations and Coded Punishments Do Not Fit The Billion Dollar Crimes. World-Wide Banking has morphed into Fewer Big Players. As such, a Global Cabal of several Lead Banks can ‘illegally’ Control Hundreds of Billions of Dollars in any Financial Arena they choose. Since Some Bankers have “AFAB” (Anything For A Buck) as their Credos, they act Amorally.

National Bank Regulators in  Countries state they are Serious about Preventing “International Wholesale Fraud With A Pen”. If actually so, there are Two Elements that MUST BE REALIZED by the Culprits: 1. They are most certain to be caught; 2. The PAIN of Long Term Incarceration is GREATER Than The GAIN. Banks and Bankers merely paying fines mean NOTHING; Losing their Freedoms DO.  If either or both of these Precepts are missing there will NEVER be Behavioral Changes in Bankers (or their Attorney or Accountant Advisers).

“Questionably Legitimate”  Bankers in a ‘Scheme’ think  the Abundant Financial Rewards from “Thievery” greatly exceed the minor risk; Statistically this is True, some people say .

Bank Robbers GO TO JAIL; Bankers who ‘Rob’ Do Not. Reality.

Fiji Farmers Favor Cocoa Future

News Analysis: Fiji Farmers Favor Cocoa Future with additional impetus from the Government. A $300,000.00 Fiji Grant to increase Cocoa growing along with higher Commodity prices help the farmers. $5,000.00 a Metric Ton (2,205 Pounds) is allegedly being paid to some Cocoa Farmers for Dried Cocoa Beans.

Cocoa, being a Seasonal Crop, needs  attention to maximize yields during its growth.  An addition of fertilizers as well as effective Pest Abatement and Disease Eradication will help insure quality production.

The Cocoa Harvesting Process is simple enough: Cocoa Trees grow ‘Pods’ which contain the Cocoa Beans. These “Football” looking Pods are cut from the trees and sliced open revealing the beans.  Each Pod contains up to Fifty  of the Green-colored Cocoa Beans. The Chemical Conversion process of Bean Fermentation takes about a week after the beans have been spread over  large areas and Solar Heated. During the process the Beans convert themselves to a Brown coloration. Evaporation of water occurs in the brown beans prior to shipment. Approximately Two Metric Tons of Green Cocoa Beans dry down to One Ton of Fermented Brown Cocoa Beans.

Investors may want to consider Cocoa Bean Farming in Fiji. A Receptive Fijian Government is a Big Asset in establishing a new Business or buying into an existing one.
