One evening in southern England more than 200 years ago, three friends with a common interest in rocks and fossils met for dinner and discussed the fledgling field of geology. At the time of publication, it represented the best available science. The upper part of the bed shows normal grading and hints of ripple-cross lamination (waning phase).This page contains archived content and is no longer being updated. The bed displays reverse grading in its bottom part and a gradual upward transition from ripple laminated, to planar laminated, to massive (waxing phase). This picture shows a nice hyperpycnite from the Pennsylvanian Minturn Formation, near McCoy (CO, USA). Therefore, the resulting hyperpycnite reflects the waxing and waning cycle in its internal structure. The flow typically waxes, reaches peak strength, and then wanes. Hyperpycnites are such kind of deposit, forming when a river, laden with sediment during its flooding stage, flows into a basin. There are, however, some deposits that differ from turbidites by showing a symmetric internal organization, with increasing and then decreasing grainsize, and with structures pointing to increasing and then decreasing energy of the flow. Turbidites typically show an upward decrease in gain size and a vertical succession of structures (massive/planar laminated/ripple cross-laminated) indicative of decreasing energy of the flow. This type of deposit forms from pulse-like flows, where sediment travels rapidly down a slope because of a gravity contrast with the surrounding fluid. Sedimentary structures clastic clastic dyke injectite Pennsylvanian Pencil for scale (resting vertically on right dyke). Although different interpretations have been presented to explain the dykes in this outcrop (e.g., infill after thermal contraction of unconsolidated deposits in a cold environment), fieldwork by GRI scientists suggests that they should be interpreted as injection features, possibly related to seismic activation of small normal faults. This picture shows three sub-vertical sandstone dykes, with parallel orientation, cutting through sub-horizontal mudstone and sandstone layers of the Pennsylvanian Fountain Formation, at the Balanced Rock site of Garden of the Gods Park, CO. Alternatively, pre-existing open cracks can be passively infilled by accumulation of a different kind of sediment. ![]() ![]() For example, fluidized sand can be injected through fractures, cutting through underlying and overlying deposits. ![]() ![]() These dykes can form through different processes. Stratigraphy relative dating Steno conglomerate granite PennsylvanianĬlastic dykes are sedimentary features consisting of seams of sediment truncating the surrounding host rock or deposit. And not only did the earth and rock not produce the bodies contained in them, but they did not even exist as such when those bodies were produced in them” (pp. In his "Prodromus," published in 1669, he writes: "these same bodies had already become hard at the time when the matter of the earth and rock containing them was still fluid. The principle was already understood by Nicolas Steno, the father of stratigraphy. Therefore, this principle helps establishing a relative sequence of events. We infer that the granite must have existed as a solid rock body that was broken and eroded before and during the deposition of the conglomerate layer. In this picture, fragments of the Mesoproterozoic Pikes Peak granite (like the clast on which the pencil is resting) are included in a conglomerate layer of the Pennsylvanian Fountain Formation, CO. One of the basic principles of stratigraphy is the "principle of inclusion." The principle states that if fragments of a rock unit are found included in a second rock unit, the second unit is younger than the first. ![]()

8/10/2023 0 Comments To catch a thief blackface![]() ![]() It’s a true golden dialogue moment in a film where the dialogues are full of entendre and innuendo, as per Hitchcock’s usual style. There is also a scene with Danielle and Frances as they are swimming in the sea that is full of nail bitingly good back handed comments to each other while Cary Grant is there stuck in the middle. Unfazed by the robberies and all in all a comedic treat. Jessie Royce Landis as Jessie Stevens, France’s mother, is a particular highlight, bringing the snappy Hitchcock dialogue to its humorous height. ![]() Indeed no one better than the cast in this movie could have done a better job. One is always glued to the screen when she is in it, be it by her glamorous wardrobe by Edith Head or her natural ability to light the screen up by her elegance so fitted to the role. Grace Kelly as Frances Stevens is the epitome of glamour, someone who is intelligent, sometimes childish and reckless. ![]() He is so dynamic as he delivers his lines and performs the action scenes. Plus Hitchcock gives him a scene in the water for the female eyes to gaze it and I hardly think anyone complains. I can’t hardly say anything else on it except maybe to pick it up if you see it for curiosities sake and read it and compare it to the film.Ĭary Grant as John Robie is the typical suave male hero, but he does it so well you hardly mind it. One could describe it as the usual 1950s fluff with Hollywood Golden Age glamour if not for the biting script, expert directing and the all around Hitchcock suspense, even if there is only a little of it.īased on the 1952 book by David Dodge this film overshadowed and still overshadows the book it is based on. It’s also very light Hitchcock, no murder, no skeletons in the closet, no blood or gore. This is a very glamorous Hitchcock movie, a departure from his usual middle-class characters as well as setting. Knowing that the the copycat like him, targets only the rich, he sets his eyes on the rich American Stevens family, as well as their fair daughter Frances. Until an unexpected friend becomes his ally, an insurance agent H. Meeting with his old Resistance friends who work for Bertine and his daughter Danielle he finds no friends there as they think he has done it. John wants to prove his innocence and to catch the copycat (pun intended) who is setting him up. This is a holiday! For you, for Hitchcock and the stars.Ī number of jewel thefts have happened in the French Riviera and the police suspect John “The Cat” Robie, a thief who had retired 15 years ago to his villa. Shown in its 1950s natural beauty of green hills and mountains, old houses and churches, swirling roads, beaches, hotels and villa’s this is as much of a poster to holiday there and the film begins so as well. To stay in the loop on more movies like this, you can sign up for weekly Family Movie Night emails.Monaco, where this film is set, where Grace Kelly would be a princess and where she would later die in one of its roads is as much of a star of this film as the stars themselves. This film, a loose remake of the 1960 film of the same name, starring Frank Sinatra and his Rat Pack, spawned the sequels Ocean's Twelve and Ocean's Thirteen. Swearing is occasional, including "f-k," "s-t," "goddamn," "screwing," "hell." In one scene there is a mock racist argument during which characters call one another "cracker" and "colored." Sexuality is limited to one kiss as well as a few wide shots of strippers and a lap dance in an upscale nightclub. There's lots of suspense, a few action-packed moments with some hard punches thrown, several explosions, a faked death, and two guards gassed into unconsciousness. The fact that their target is a ruthless and violent business tycoon is meant to lessen the immorality and illegality of their adventure. Parents need to know that Ocean's Eleven is a slick caper movie that keeps the audience rooting for appealing, clever con artists and thieves throughout. ![]() 8/10/2023 0 Comments Energy nova stock![]() ![]() Sources: CoinDesk (Bitcoin), Kraken (all other cryptocurrencies)Ĭalendars and Economy: 'Actual' numbers are added to the table after economic reports are released. 5 years 71.04 All time 71.04 Key stats Market capitalization 2.121B USD Dividends yield (FY) Price to earnings Ratio (TTM) Basic EPS (TTM) 1.
