  • Praise for the Corporate Whistleblower's Survival Guide
    Praise for The Corporate Whistleblower’s Survival Guide “Blowing the whistle is a life-altering experience. Taking the fi rst step is the hardest, knowing that you can never turn back. Harder yet is not taking the step and allowing the consequences of not blowing the whistle to continue, knowing you could have stopped them. Your life will be forever changed; friends and family will question your ac- tions if not your sanity, your peers will shun you, every relationship you treasure will be strained to the breaking point. This handbook is required reading for anyone considering blowing the whistle.” —Richard and Donna Parks, Three Mile Island cleanup whistleblower and wife “The Corporate Whistleblower’s Survival Guide will be an immense help! For while there are no one-size-fi ts-all ‘right answers,’ the au- thors have effectively translated their decades of actual experience, insights, and resources in this fi eld onto paper. A realistic framework will now exist to help people confronting such diffi cult situations.” —Coleen Rowley, FBI 9/11 whistleblower and a 2002 Time Person of the Year “Lays out exactly what potential corporate whistleblowers must know to help improve their chances of both surviving whistleblowing and stopping the misconduct they set out to expose. My only hope is that we can help spread the word so that all potential corporate whistle- blowers read this book before they take their fi rst steps down that lonely road.” —Danielle Brian, Executive Director, Project on Government Oversight “As commissioner, I relied on whistleblowers like Jeffrey Wigand to learn the inside story about the deceptive practices of the tobacco industry.

  • From the Piceance Basin to the Pacific Rim: Measuring the Impact of the Oil Price Collapse
    From the Piceance Basin to the Pacific Rim: Measuring the Impact of the Oil Price Collapse Presentation to: Energy & Environment Symposium Rifle, CO By: John Harpole April 29, 2015 Presentation Outline • What is Happening? Why? – The recent collapse in crude oil prices. – The reasons for the price collapse. • What does it mean for worldwide and U.S. production? 2 The House of Saud’s Motivation Source: Raymond James U.S. Research Energy Report, January 12, 2015 3 The Production War is on! • On November 27, 2014 at an OPEC meeting in Vienna, the Saudis said, “Yakfee!” or “Enough!” • They resisted calls from OPEC members Iran, Iraq and Venezuela to reduce the production target of 30 million barrels per day. Source: 4 Major Takeaways • Crude oil prices are depressed due to the current global oversupply. • The crude oil oversupply will take betweeen1 to 3 years to correct, unless a major structural event takes supply out (OPEC, etc.) • Current crude oil prices are too low and will rise to meet demand. $100/b is no longer going to be the normal. • Marginally economic areas across the U.S. will be negatively impacted. Geography and crude quality can tip the sales either way. • North American LNG exports will be affected in the near- term.
