Roadside Bombs Getting Cruder and More Lethal, Technology is Available to Render Them Useless, Explains Bill Bartling in World Energy Monthly Review.HOUSTON -- The news today reports another roadside bomb kills at least 35. While no known US troops were victims, the increased use of roadside bombs in Iraq has left US troops defenseless against what lies in their path, accounting for over half of the military deaths by hostile fire In insurance law, a combustion that cannot be controlled, that escapes from where it was initially set and confined, or one that was not intended to exist. A hostile fire differs from a friendly fire, which burns in a place where it was intended to burn, such as one confined . Geophysical ge·o·phys·ics n.

Examining the same technology used by geophysics geophysics, study of the structure, composition, and dynamic changes of the earth, its atmosphere, hydrosphere and magnetosphere, based on the principles of physics. to locate oil miles underground, Bartling explains that the question becomes what we can tell from the data. The answer is we can tell if something is there and, if something is, where and what it is. Seeing buried things, Bill Bartling, who has over 25 years experience in the oil and gas industry, spanning exploration, production, research and technology functions, reports that a program to develop this capability, referred to by the army as subterranean target detection, which first began in the mid 1990's has been initiated with excellent progress, but has yet to be deployed by the military. It is time to complete testing and deliver the capability to start saving lives. Also in the current edition we focus on Mexico and a left leaning Latin America Latin America, the Spanish-speaking, Portuguese-speaking, and French-speaking countries (except Canada) of North America, South America, Central America, and the West Indies. , the role of traders in the oil business today, and some unusual sources for Energy.
