Hot wheels: Cars, climate change and the great EV disconnect
25 January 2021 3 minute read
Alessandro Rovelli
Senior Credit Research Analyst
With traditional carmakers under intense pressure to cut emissions in the fight against climate change, investors are putting their money behind pure play electric vehicle producers. Alessandro Rovelli digs into the numbers to assess whether this trend is sustainable.
When it comes to the history of automobiles, there are two undisputable truths. First, they have fundamentally transformed societies; increasing the mobility and independence of individuals in a way that was previously inconceivable. Second, they have also been a major contributor to the biggest crisis facing the planet, climate change. And, despite all the efforts to cut greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) to meet the Paris Agreement targets to limit global warming, emissions in transport (with cars comfortably the biggest contributor) continue to grow.
Over the past three decades, while overall emissions in the US have increased 3.7 per cent, to 6,676.7 million metric tonnes of carbon equivalent (MmtC),1 transport emissions have increased by 23.3 per cent to 1,882.6 MmtC.2 At 28 per cent of total emissions, the sector has gone from being the third biggest contributor in 1990 (behind electricity generation and industry) to the biggest today.3
The same picture can be seen in Europe. Despite a 24 per cent reduction overall in GHG emissions since 19904 in the European Union, emissions from transport have increased by 33 per cent,5 with the proportion increasing from 15 per cent to 25 per cent.6 The prospects of that changing over the next decade aren't much better – with projections that by 2030 emissions from transport will be anywhere between 17 and 32 per cent higher than they were in 1990.
Carmakers in the spotlight
It is little wonder then there is so much attention from consumers, manufacturers and policymakers on tackling the issue. But with seemingly slim prospect of people willingly giving up their right to own cars any time soon, the auto industry is locked in a fierce battle to deliver the new vehicles consumers demand – still big on performance, but less damaging to the planet. In one corner are the traditional industry behemoths, from Volkswagen in Europe to Ford in the US; in the other are the pure play electric vehicle (EV) producers, including the likes of Elon Musk's Tesla in the US and its Chinese rival NIO.
The auto industry is locked in a fierce battle to deliver the new vehicles consumers demand, but less damaging to the planet
Investors are understandably paying close attention to the shift towards EVs, with a disconnect emerging recently over who they are favouring, as highlighted by the contrasting stock market experience of Tesla and Volkswagen in the past year.
In 2020, Tesla's share price rose by 690 per cent, from $88.60 to $699.99, an astonishing surge for a company rated BB/B3 by S&P and Moody's and which has never reported an annual profit in its history (although that may change when its full year 2020 results are announced).7
VW, meanwhile, saw its share price fall 1.8 per cent, from €173.25 to €170.10 – this was despite reporting a big expansion in its own electrification efforts. The German car giant produced over 130,000 EVs and 210,000 electrified cars (including hybrids and plug-in hybrids) – up 197 per cent and 158 per cent on the previous year. These numbers are a fraction of where VW says it can get to – the company expects to produce one million EVs a year by 2023 – so why doesn't the market seem so convinced of its, or other traditional automakers, prospects? It's worth delving deeper into the numbers for clues.
The froth on top
No single area offers greater opportunities for deep decarbonisation than electric power. The use of electricity does not increase or reduce emissions in itself; electricity delivers energy that may or may not be clean depending on how it was generated. An electric car, for instance, doesn't do much good against global warming if all the electricity comes from conventional coal plants.
Transportation accounts for 27 per cent of global energy use and nearly all of it relies on oil
Overall, transportation accounts for 27 per cent of global energy use, and nearly all of it relies on oil. The car industry has had some success in changing this: the latest EVs rival high-end conventional cars in performance and cost. Electric cars now make up almost 10 per cent of new sales in California (although only two per cent across the US as of December 2020) and nearly 56 per cent in Norway, where the government offers massive subsidies to buyers.
As we have illustrated through the example of Tesla, capital markets voted strongly in favour of EV producers. The market capitalisation of Tesla went up by more than seven times in 2020, even though many sell-side analysts had already called its 2019 multiples 'frothy'. Figure 1 shows Tesla's market capitalisation three years ago versus today, compared with the total market capitalisation of the top five European carmakers (VW, BMW, Daimler, Renault, Peugeot).

The smartphone comparison
Tesla's market capitalisation has become almost 13 times bigger, compared with a 17 per cent drop in the market capitalisation of traditional auto manufacturers. This example of overtaking is even more dramatic than the one that saw Apple catch up with Nokia around 14 years ago, shortly after the launch of the iPhone, as Figure 2 highlights.

The iPhone heralded a new disruptive technology, the smartphone, which overtook the traditional feature phones produced by Nokia in six short years.

In contrast, most forecasters currently expect EV's global market share to reach just 20 per cent in the next ten years (as shown in Figure 4), a much-lower penetration than smartphones have achieved since the first iPhone was sold.

Who is the leader in EVs? It's complicated….
However, as we have mentioned previously, markets seem to believe a different story. Comparing Volkswagen with Tesla shows Tesla only overtook the market leader in terms of market capitalisation in 2019, followed by a stunning acceleration in 2020.
[As an aside, the performance of bonds issued by Tesla and VW tells a different story, one that is closely correlated to their respective credit ratings (BB/B3 from S&P and Moody's for Tesla; BBB+/A3 for VW). In mid-January 2021, Tesla's $1.8 billion 2025 bond was yielding around 2.7 per cent in the secondary market; VW bonds of the same maturity were yielding around 1.2 per cent].
Figure 5: Tesla and Volkswagen market capitalisations, 2010-2020 (US$bn)

Meanwhile, Figures 6 and 7 show that Tesla still sells just a fraction of the vehicles sold by the largest five European carmakers. Moreover, the European Big Five recently achieved a larger global market share than Tesla itself in EVs.

While Tesla does not have to spend much money to reconvert old internal combustion engine (ICE) plants into EVs, it does need to spend money to scale up. It could easily raise capital at current funding levels, however, and has taken full advantage of this option. In late 2020, Tesla raised $5 billion in cash through an equity capital increase. At this pace, it could easily outspend peers as it internationalises and scales up its production capabilities.
Figure 8 shows Tesla's net fixed assets against those of the European Big Five. According to estimates from Continental AG and Bloomberg New Energy Finance, 80 per cent of cars sold in 2030 will still have an ICE, making it unlikely that all the Big Five's assets will become stranded. In addition, converting a plant from ICEs to EVs is costly, but not as punishing as writing down a coal mine or an expensive oil project for an energy company.
Figure 8: Net fixed assets, Tesla versus the European Big Five (US$m)
New threats from familiar names
Tesla is not alone in commanding what seem to be expensive multiples. Many other new EV companies or start-ups are trading at multiples traditional carmakers can only dream of. Figure 9 shows that Tesla's equity valuation stands at just over 14 times its one-year sales forecast, but other EV start-ups are trading at even higher multiples, while the European Big Five show a multiple of just 0.4 times.
Figure 9: Ratio of equity valuations to one-year sales forecasts
The jury is out for what will happen in the coming year to EV producers and traditional carmakers; however, both may face pressures from new challengers, but familiar names. Apple and Amazon seem increasingly likely to start building their own EVs to seize new opportunities in the mobility market and, for Amazon in particular, to control its delivery costs and carbon dioxide emissions.
Figure 10 compares the market capitalisations of Apple, Amazon (potential entrants), Google and Tesla (already playing in the mobility space) against the European Big Five. The Silicon Valley giants have enormous financial resources and if they begin manufacturing vehicles at scale, they could squeeze traditional manufacturers' market share and margins.
Figure 10: Market capitalisation of potential and emerging entrants versus the European Big Five (US$m)
The great technological transformation of the nineteenth century was to harness the power of fossil fuels for industrial growth. The twentieth century rode the wave of innovation that followed, and inadvertently put the planet on track for massive warming. The defining industrial project of this century will be to leave carbon behind.
Traditional carmakers have a fighting chance of catching up to new players like Tesla if they move decisively and rapidly
As the automotive industry embarks on this enterprise, financial markets are seeking to price in the winners. Replacing horses with cars took about 30 years, from 1900 to 1930. Replacing feature phones with smartphones took six years. EVs replacing ICEs may be somewhere in between, given the rapid pace of technological change and the massive sums being invested in renewables and EVs. Traditional carmakers have a fighting chance of catching up to new players like Tesla if they move decisively and rapidly, but until they do, there are reasons to remain cautious on their long-term prospects.

Selfie-Taking Tourist Destroys 18th-Century Saint Michael Statue in Lisbon
No, this is not a repeat.
By Lilit Marcus
Earlier this week, a Brazilian tourist visiting Portugal knocked over and destroyed a priceless 18th-century statue in Lisbon's National Museum of Ancient Art while trying to take a selfie. If you thought this story sounded familiar, that's because it does: In May, another tourist destroyed a different Lisbon statue while posing for a selfie, in that case atop the Rossio train station in the capital. The Daily Mail reports that news of the breaking... broke... over the weekend when another museum patron posted a photo of the destroyed artwork, a statue of Saint Michael that dated from the early 1700s, on Facebook with the caption "It's the price to be paid for free entrances on the first Sunday of every month." Museum officials confirmed that damage to the statue is irreparable. Portuguese authorities say that they are investigating the incident. If the suspect is arrested, we can guess that he or she, like the person who knocked over the statue at Rossio station, will be charged with destruction of public property.
The museum's director, Antonio Filipe Pimentel, has one theory about how the unnamed museumgoer was able to knock over a statue without anybody noticing in time. Earlier this year, Pimentel warned that under-staffing for security guards and other personnel at major museums like the National Museum of Ancient Art could have dire consequences. "There are only 64 people for 84 chambers open to the public. I am very sure one day we will see hazards in the museum. It will happen because we're playing with our heritage."
Beyond staffing issues, selfies in museums and other public spaces are an ongoing concern that many places are struggling to address. Croatia's Plitvice Lakes National Park saw one tourist die and another come close after both veered off of approved trails to snap the perfect selfies, and a baby dolphin in Argentina died after people on a beach kept passing the animal around and taking selfies with it. Some places, like Amsterdam's Van Gogh Museum, have banned selfies (and all photography) in order to prevent mishaps and to encourage people to engage more directly with the art on display. However, without enough personnel on hand to enforce those rules, such bans become ineffective and could lead to more accidents that hurt both people and priceless works of art.

Oldest woman in the Carolinas celebrates birthday, but she may be even older
A few days ago, Hester Ford celebrated what was believed to be her 113th birthday. But census bureau documents show she was actually born in 1904, not 1905.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — It's quite a feat to live long enough to make it to your 112th birthday. It's an absolute miracle to leap to 114-years-old the next year!
That may be the case for Hester Ford who lives just north of uptown. NBC Charlotte visited her in 2017 when she turned 112-years-old.
Hester Ford
A few days ago, Ford celebrated what was believed to be her 113th birthday. However, her daughter, Hattie Thomas, said the family found census bureau documents that show Ford, the oldest living person in the Carolinas, was actually born in 1904, not 1905.
That would make her 114-years-old.
According to Wikipedia, Ford is listed as the fourth oldest living American supercentenarian. If the census bureau documents hold up, she would jump to number one on the list, just ahead of Lessie Brown of Ohio. Brown will turn 114-years-old on September 22.
RELATED: Charlotte woman turns 112 and can recite Psalm 23 without skipping a beat
Ford was born in Lancaster, South Carolina. She worked on a farm where she not only planted and picked cotton but plowed the field and cut wood.
The supercentenarian had 12 children with her husband -- eight girls and four boys. She moved to Charlotte in 1953 where she worked for more than 20 years as a nanny for two families in Myers Park.
Ford also had 48 grandchildren, 108 great-grandchildren and approximately 120 great-great-grandchildren.
The lady of longevity is a devout Christian and spent many years volunteering at her local church. She can recite many Bible verses, but her favorite is Psalm 23.
Thomas told NBC Charlotte it will take several days to investigate those census bureau documents.
By the way, Wikipedia lists the second oldest living person in the Carolinas as Helen White of Marion County, South Carolina.

James Robert Williamson (born 29 october 1949 in Castroville, Texas) is an American guitarist, songwriter and record producer best known for his contribution to the protopunk rock band Iggy & The Stooges.
Williamson's family moved to Detroit, Michigan when he was in the 8th grade. He formed his first rock 'n' roll band, "The Chosen Few", with Scott Richardson in the 9th grade. They performed cover versions of Rolling Stones songs and others. Williamson also spent some time in a juvenile home. In one of the bands later line-ups, in 11th grade, Ron Asheton was the bassist. Asheton, as guitarist, went on to form The Stooges with his brother Scott and Iggy Pop.
After graduating from High School, Williamson travelled to New York City in 1969 where he met up with The Stooges, who were recording their debut album.
Later, in 1971, Williamson joined The Stooges, who were struggling with line-up changes, drugs and lack of success. David Bowie offered Iggy a chance to record in London, and eventually the Asheton brothers re-joined, with Ron on bass. Williamson co-wrote all the songs (with Iggy) and played all the guitar parts for The Stooges 1973 album "Raw Power". He played louder and raunchier than almost anybody at the time, with a jagged high-energy approach. For this, along with his creative song writing, many people consider him one of punk's pioneers.
Many of the demo recordings made prior to "Raw Power" were belatedly issued, including the hard rock tracks "I Got A Right" and "Gimme Some Skin". After collaborating with Iggy on the 1975 sessions for their duo album "Kill City", Williamson left the music business to become an electronic engineer and work in the computer industry.
"Kill City" was issued in 1977 and in 1979 Williamson returned to produce, write and play on Iggy's third solo album "New Values" (with Scott Thurston emulating Williamson's guitar style), and do initial production on Iggy's next album "Soldier", before returning to the electronics field where he remains today.

Pythagoras of Samos wore many faces. He was Ionian Greek philosopher. He is also famous for his contributions to math and a religion sect that was named after him and calledPythagoreanism. However, most information that is known about this ancient philosopher was written down after his death. Thus, much of the information that we know about him can be considered very reliable.
In his youth, Pythagoras traveled the world around. He studied in Egypt and visited many other places in search of knowledge. In 530 BC, he moved to Croton in Magna Graecia. It was here that he founded his religious sect. His followers took part in the religious rites and practices that have been instilled in them by Pythagoras that he obtained by traveling the world in search of truth and wisdom. This he obtained by studying with the most adept magicians of the times.
The society took an active role in politics of Croton, which did eventually lead to their downfall. People became jealous of the pure magic which Pythagoras and his followers believed. They wanted his magic to use for their own adulterated purposed but when Pythagoras refused to lend his magic to those who sought to use it for asinine purposes, they got jealous. They began burning Pythagorean meeting places. Pythagoras and a string of his followers were forced out of the city amidst violence and betrayal of their own people. Pythagoras is said to have spent his last days in Metapontum.
It is from his grave, which is in an undisclosed location, that we obtained a copy of the secret writings of Pythagoras. It outlines everything type of magic and mystic teaching that he has ever come across in his travels. It ranges from alchemy to sacred geology, to astrology, to sorcery, to white light divination, etc. The knowledge in his teachings and writings are boundless. We have made this item, in the shape of a wizard, to honor the ancient Pythagoras who is one of the best wizards known to history.

Memorial Day is just a few days away, and as the unofficial start of summer there's usually some great deals on used certified pre-owned vehicles. US News & World Report's Best Cars Blog has the low-down on some of these deals.
Most of the used car incentives are in the form of low interest finacing, raning from 0% to 2.99% - for example, Cadillac is offering 0% financing on all CPO (certified pre-owned) models until June 2, while Nissan has 0% financing for 36 months on all CPO models. Nissan also has $500 cash back on some models, which is rare for used vehicles.
If you're considering buying a used car, you may also want to check out prices on the new versions, just to make you're not missing out on a great deal. I recommend using TrueCar and Edmunds Price Promise to see the lowest prices on any new vehicle.

Q: What is the precise Regex in google form for whole number greater than 6 with no leading zero? The closest I found after trying all the various answers in earlier similar question was below:-
^[6-9]|[0-9]\d+$

but this still allows the leading zeros. Any help to restrict the leading zeros as well, please?
The answer suggested in How to match numbers between X and Y with regexp? is not my solution because it still allows numbers below 6.

A: Try this one to avoid leading zero:
^(?:[6-9]|[1-9]\d+)$

Q: How can I write a python code where it extracts full names from a list of names How can I write a python code where it extracts full names from a list of names. For example:
names = ['John', 'Jane Doe', 'Mark', 'Ray Charles', 'Meg'].

Expected result:
names = ['Jane Doe', 'Ray Charles']

A: If I correctly understand you, you want all the names that have more than 1 word in them.
If so, you can check this by: len(name.split(' ')) > 1
and the final code will be:
output_list = [name for name in names if len(name.split(' ')) > 1]

A: Keep two lists: One for all names, and one for full names where the first and last names are separated by one space. Iterate through the names, and copy all names with a space to the full names list.
all_names = [ "John", "Jane Doe", "Mark", "Ray Charles", "Meg" ]
full_names = []

for name in all_names:
  if " " in name:
    full_names.append(name)

A: One way:
storeFullNames = []
storeFullNames.append('Jane Doe')
storeFullNames.append('Ray Charles')
print(storeFullNames)

Second way:
storeListNames = []
for name in names:
  if len(name.split(' ')) > 1:
     storeListNames.append(name)
print(storeListNames)

both ways return a list with full names only...

HelloWorld knew all about Agile, and they knew that Agile doesn't work well at agencies. Until they tried AgencyAgile.
We have never said that our approach to Agile was "the best" or even just "better," but it is time to change that. Most of our agency clients had tried Agile before they called us, and most all of them would confess that we took them far past where they had been.
But with this latest case study, we've seen results that are worth being bold about: the 200+ person agency HelloWorld knew Agile well (they used SAFe for their platform development), and they found our AgencyAgile methods worked far better for the agency side fo their business. It was a true side-by-side comparison.
HelloWorld had been actively trying popular process improvement systems in hopes of driving their agency's operations to the next level of excellence. But most things didn't stick. After a little online searching, AgencyAgile became the obvious candidate to partner with.
HelloWorld is a digital marketing solutions company focused on developing online promotions and loyalty programs that enable brands to engage their consumers. HelloWorld prioritizes innovation. Their products and services evolve quickly in order to stay ahead of what consumers are expecting in the marketplace, and enable their teams to deliver groundbreaking solutions to today's top brands. They pride themselves on their top-brand clients and their culture of 5-star client service.


Monitoring harmful algal blooms with Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) helps to recognize HAB outbreaks with greater accuracy, speed and geographic coverage. And that's important because many HABs have significant economic impacts, such as shellfish closures, wild or farmed fish mortalities, and scared consumers who avoid purchasing seafood causing major loss of sales revenue in the fisheries and tourism industries. MSU Geosciences faculty member Padmanava Dash and graduate students Saurav Silwal, Christopher Zarzar and John Van Horn are monitoring the water quality of the lower Pearl River estuary in an effort to protect numerous coastal shellfish beds that could be negatively impacted by HABs because of freshwater input through the estuary. They are using UASs equipped with several onboard sensors, including optical and hyperspectral and multi-spectral camera-based technology to help them identify suspended sediments, HABs and colored dissolved organic matter faster than the traditional methods of satellites, ships, aircrafts, and surface -based sensors. UAS expands these researchers' ability to observe and access otherwise inaccessible areas to gather critical information needed to conserve and protect valuable marine resources.

Proxy with response moddin'

##cli
First, install globally
```bash
$ npm install -g foxy
```

Then, if you wanted to proxy a local vhost such as `http://magento.dev` run:
```bash
$ foxy http://magento.dev
```

A random port will be used, but if you want to provide your own:
```bash
$ foxy http://magento.dev --port 3000
```

##api
```js
var foxy = require("foxy");

var proxy = foxy("http://localhost:3000").listen(8000);

// Now access the site through http://localhost:8000
```

Built-in middleware will re-write html on the fly to update any urls & there'll also be the option
for additional rules for the re-writing.

## Additional re-write rules

Let's say you want to change the text `Home Page` to be `Homepage Rocks`, you can do that easily by
providing additional `rules`

```js
var foxy = require("foxy");

var config = {
    rules: [
        {
            match: /Home Page/g,
            fn: function () {
                return "Homepage Rocks"
            }
        }
    ]
};

var proxy = foxy("http://localhost:3000", config).listen(8000);
```

## white/black lists

You can force some paths to always be processed by the middlewares.

```js
var proxy = foxy("http://wordpress.dev", {
    whitelist: ["/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php"], // whitelist checked first
    blacklist: ["/wp-admin/**"],
}).listen(8000);
```

## proxyResponse middleware

You can add middleware-like functions which process the proxy response.

```js
var foxy = require("foxy");

var config = {
    proxyRes: [
        function(proxyRes, req, config) {
            // do something with the proxyRes object which comes from node-http-proxy
        }
    ]
};

var proxy = foxy("http://localhost:3000", config).listen(8000);
```

Q: Syntax error (missing operator) I am not a trained programmer, so trying to do this is difficult. I am getting the above error with this SQL code, and I cannot figure out the reason. Please advise.
SELECT a.agentname as 'Salesforce AgentName', a.loannumber, ag.agentname as 'portal agentname'
from salesforce a
inner join portal b ON a.loannumber = b.loannumber

left join agents ag ON b.agentid = ag.agentid
where a.agentname <> ag.agentname

A: Bit of a guess (based on here)
SELECT a.agentname  AS 'Salesforce AgentName',
       a.loannumber,
       ag.agentname AS 'portal agentname'
FROM   ((salesforce as a )
       INNER JOIN portal as b
         ON a.loannumber = b.loannumber)
       LEFT JOIN agents ag
         ON b.agentid = ag.agentid
WHERE  a.agentname <> ag.agentname

BTW it is usually an error to refer to outer joined table columns in the WHERE clause unless you account for the possibility that they are NULL

A: Access' db engine has strict requirement for parentheses when your SELECT statement includes more than 1 join.  I suggest you start with a simplified version of the query (discard the field list and the WHERE clause) so you can focus on getting the joins right.
SELECT *
FROM
    (salesforce AS a
    INNER JOIN portal AS b
    ON a.loannumber = b.loannumber)
    LEFT JOIN agents AS
    ag ON b.agentid = ag.agentid;

Assuming that version works, try this:
SELECT
    a.agentname AS [Salesforce AgentName],
    a.loannumber,
    ag.agentname AS [portal agentname]
FROM
    (salesforce AS a
    INNER JOIN portal AS b
    ON a.loannumber = b.loannumber)
    LEFT JOIN agents AS
    ag ON b.agentid = ag.agentid
WHERE a.agentname <> ag.agentname;

Notice I enclosed the aliases for the column names with square brackets instead of single quotes.  The single quotes would not trigger an error, but they would be included in the column header ... which I doubt you want.
You would do yourself a favor by building Access queries in Access' query designer.  It will make it difficult to create a query with syntax the db engine won't accept.
Edit: If the purpose of this query is to compare agentname values from the salesforce and agents tables, perhaps you may want to try this as the WHERE clause:
WHERE a.agentname <> ag.agentname OR ag.agentname Is Null;

Q: Return value of property from object and property name Given an object and the name of a property, I'm trying to use reflection to get the value of that property.  I've seen several threads here that are getting me close, but I'm not nailing it just yet.  I happen to know that the value will be of type string.
public string GetPropValue(object src, string propName)
{
    return src.GetType().GetProperty(propName).GetValue(????);
}

A: Just pass the src object like this:
public string GetPropValue(object src, string propName)
{
    return src.GetType().GetProperty(propName).GetValue(src, null).ToString();
}


Should Varchar Length Be Kept Small?
Whats the point of the length when defining a varchar in an SQL DB? It seems to default to 255, is there any point in limiting this to something like 5, if I know it will never exceed this value?
Well the answer here is not really, but it also doesn't make much of a difference on the small scale. On a large scale this should never even be a question.
The only time when the length of a varchar field matters is when you are using memory or temporary tables in MySQL. In this scenario the field will be padded to fill the space. For example, varchar(10) and you have a 4 letter string. This will be padded with an additional 6 characters to fill the space. This can become inefficient.
The main answer here is that it really doesn't matter that much. Most installs of SQL will not pad the fields to reach the maximum limit. If you are in a position where you are wondering if the field should be varchar(10) or varchar(50), just go for the larger. With such tiny values it really wont make a difference. This is enough to answer this question, but it does raise a different issue. If you are using a large value in the event that a user may enter 1000 characters, why is this happening? This might not be a problem, but when you have 10million rows, this 1000 character field will end up consuming an incredible amount of memory that will really hurt the performance of your server.
So if you are wondering the reason for varchar lengths in sql tables, the reason is not directly performance related. SQL is smart enough not to fill the column with pointless padding. What you should be asking is, is the design of my database efficient?

November « 2010 « R-V There Yet?
Happy 9th Birthday to granddaughter Gracie. We are so proud of her. She is a good fisherman, student and cheerleader. I know her parents are beaming as well.
For years, working in the oilfield equipment manufacturing business, Rick worked with our friend, Becky Casanova. She had a knack for even being able to complete Rick's sentences. Becky's husband, Roley, is an accomplished cowboy and competes in Team Roping events. Team roping is depicted in this beautiful drawing by Wyanne Chase.
A few months ago, Roley was severely injured in a horseback riding accident. Residents of the Falfurrias, Texas and Premont, where Roley grew up and where many family members live, decided to have a team roping benefit in his honor. The object is to raise funds to help offset medical bills.
Since it is only 60 miles away, we wanted to go to the event and see Becky and Roley. When we arrived, the kids were getting their ring side positions.
Roley's daughter, Mia, mounted up to assist.
Judging from the size of this "cowboy", apparently there is no limit to when you start riding. It is at least 18 inches between his feet and the stirrups.
It started to get dark when the competition began. The cowboys waited for their turn.
It was great to see Becky, Roley and Mia since it has been more than a year.
We were happy to see Roley take his first steps away from his wheelchair since his accident. We are hopeful that the recovery continues without incident.

MAA's Sweetheart Dance was so much fun!
From the photo booth to dancing, special snacks and treats to the candy table, our girls and their "dates" had a wonderful night. Special thanks to our Home and School Association and all that made this such a special event. Click here to see the album!

Průliv se železným dnem () se nachází v jihozápadním Pacifiku, mezi ostrovy Guadalcanal, Florida a Savo. Pojmenovali ho tak spojenečtí vojáci podle množství vraků lodí a letadel, které spočinuly na jeho dně. Většina z nich tu byla potopena (či sestřelena) během šestiměsíčních bojů o Guadalcanal od srpna 1942 do února 1943. Před druhou světovou válkou byla tato úžina známa jako Sealarkova ().

Na západě na ni navazuje Štěrbina (), která představovala hlavní přístupovou trasu k Průlivu se železným dnem pro japonské jednotky z Rabaulu.

Jelikož spousta vraků leží buďto přímo na plážích nebo v malé hloubce, jsou pobřežní vody průlivu vyhledávaným cílem pro potápěče.

bauma 2016 Shanghai
by Contrafed PUblishing February 8, 2017 February 13, 2017
This article first appeared in Contractor February 2017.
BAUMA has become one of the key global exhibitions for heavy machinery and the services that support them.
The crowd-pleasing Lovol transformer was on duty once again.
Given the timing cycles Bauma 2016 Shanghai has perhaps suffered from a New Zealand perspective by being so close to Conexpo / Conn-Agg Las Vegas next month.
But for the 170,000 visitors from 149 countries and regions that did attend in November, there was much to be seen in the 300,000 square metres at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre. It attracted 2953 exhibitors from 41 countries and regions, which is in line with the previous show, despite the economic slowdown in China.
Seventy percent of exhibitors came from China, and 45 percent of all exhibitors were new this year. There were also seven major national pavilions, from Germany, Italy, Korea, Spain, Turkey, the UK and the USA.
The show attracted exhibitors offering every conceivable size and type of construction-related equipment and service. There were enormous pavilions displaying dump trucks, cranes, excavators, elevated platforms and concrete pumps. There were singing and dancing troupes to attract attention, and if that didn't work, there were loud-hailers at every display. Promotional teams handed out brochures, pamphlets and books to everyone who would take them, and sophisticated video displays were everywhere.
The next event will be held from November 27-30, 2018.
Shanghai growth
Much was made of Auckland's growth at the end of last year, with counts of 64 cranes dotted around the city (we can see 17 from our office alone). I counted 30 tower cranes on one building alone at Shanghai airport.
Getting around Shanghai
Taxis in Shanghai may be cheap, but you still can't beat the Metro for economy. For between 60 and 80 cents, cross-city travel on the Shanghai Metro is fast and efficient. Rarely will you wait for more than a few minutes for a train. They're spotlessly clean, all signs are in English, and ticket machines are in multiple languages with easy to follow route maps. The Maglev route which runs from the Airport and joins the Metro in the Pudong district (just one stop away from the Shanghai New International Expo Centre which hosts bauma) runs at 300kph for the eight-minute trip.
The Shanghai Metro is currently the largest city metro system by route length (nearly 600 kilometres), has 364 stations, and is still expanding. The first 4.4 kilometre-line opened in 1993 and by 2025 the system is planned to be around 1000 kilometres long. Nowhere in the CBD will be more than 600 metres from a Metro Station. With an average 10 million people using the Metro every work-day (over 3 billion rides per year), that still leaves another 14 million people on the roads each day. The roads are nothing like the Metro. When just crossing the road can be deemed an adrenaline-fuelled sport, trying to drive might just be a step too far for most.

ECOWAS' Statement on the Post Election Situation in Sierra Leone
The Economic Community of West African States, ECOWAS, wishes to seize this opportunity to congratulate the people and Government of Sierra Leone for the peaceful conduct of presidential and parliamentary elections which was held on March 7, 2018. The large turnout at the polls is a testament that Sierra Leone has imbibed the essential principles of democracy.
The ECOWAS Commission conversely takes note of some post-election tension, particularly the clashes between supporters of the ruling party and the main opposition in the capital city of Freetown and also in some districts such as Kono.
Ahead of the run-off elections scheduled for the 27th March, ECOWAS calls on the leadership of all political parties, particularly the All Peoples Congress (APC) and the Sierra Leone People's Party (SLPP), to enjoin their supporters to abstain from all forms of violence in order to affirm the respect for democratic principles and avoid instability and divisive socio-political cleavages.
ECOWAS calls on the civil society, including the traditional and religious leaders and the media to work on creating a peaceful environment for the successful and peaceful completion of the electoral process.
ECOWAS reiterates its total commitment to the entrenchment of democracy and the rule of law in the region and reaffirms its unwavering support to the Government and people of Sierra Leone at this important time of the country's political history.
Jean-Claude Kassi BROU
President of the Commission
