CeBIT 2009: Fujitsu and Siemens to Split Up
At the CeBIT in Hannover, Germany, the Fujitsu Siemens company announced a planned separation of its two entities as of April 2009.
All that will be left of the 10-year-old merger of Fujitsu and Siemens are the two letters "ji" from the Fujitsu name. The term "ji" derives from the Japanese pronunciation of Siemens ("jiimensu") when the two companies first cooperated in 1936. The new company name wasn't revealed at the CeBIT conference, but the fact is Siemens is no longer a shareholder at Fujitsu, although it remains a partner and customer. The split-up follows the already announced cost saving measures that are also to include some lay-offs.
Fujitsu continues to see Germany as a key market, according to Bernd Wagner, Germany's managing director at Fujitsu Siemens. R&D should continue to increase in that country: the Fujitsu Siemens locations in Augsburg, Sömmerda and Munich continued to come up in Wagner's presentation at CeBIT. Wagner also named India as an additional market that Fujitsu plans to pursue.

With the consumer electronics industry reaching nearly $170 billion in business and the video game software and hardware industry totaling nearly $50 billion, there's a lot at stake for how, where, when and why the products are presented to retailers and industry experts and then to the public.
Does Best Buy's chief video game buyer feel the energy when Nintendo floods their giant E3 July presentation in Hollywood with cheering ringers, who are NOT media, analysts or other buyers? Does the Game Spot or Circuit City audio-video equipment buyer make the connection on how much more he or she can add to a consumer purchase from the accessories featured at the Consumer Electronics Show in January?
Or does the regional giant J@R Music have to hire more people when Sony unveils different products on the West Coast and East Coast on the same day in California and New York City? The recent E3 show in Los Angeles had very little to offer in the way of learning what will be new for the holiday season from the major software providers, after the big guns Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo did their thing.
Yet last January's Consumer Electronics Show featured hundreds more software makers, accessory makers and related video game manufacturers and service providers.
"I think we have shown that the consumer electronics show is a compelling trade show for all segments of the video game market and their software, hardware makers and accessory companies," says Jason Oxman, the CEA's Vice President of Communications. While Oxman refuses to knock his E3 rival, other industry analysts think that the industry and the public could be better served if the E3 improved its show or the CEA grabbed all of it.
"While I still have to see what Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft and others have to say in July, the public and buyers themselves are being better served by the larger Winter Show in Vegas," says Len Wanger, senior analyst at William Harris Investors.
Jason Oxman emphasizes that the International CES has had a concerted strategy to be the one must-attend global event for technology professionals. For four days each January, CES draws the who's who of the consumer technology industry who attend CES as a one stop event to see the hottest products and companies across 30 different product categories including content, gaming, home theatre and wireless. For the past three years, the Int'l CES has featured a popular Gaming TechZone. During this time, the TechZone space has doubled in size, to accommodate companies such as Commodore Gaming, Entropia Universe, Red Lion Interactive, Shuttle Computers and War Machine, as well as LumiSource, Red Beard and InterAction Laboratories. Microsoft and Sony also feature the latest developments in the gaming world at their respective booths.
It wasn't this way at all for the last ten years.
When the video game industry growing faster than even their participants realized, were dissatisfied with both of the consumer electronics shows the Spring show in Chicago and the larger one in Las Vegas in January, launched their own initiative in Los Angeles ten years ago…taking a late spring approach to garnering news and excitement from the very hot industry. It almost replaced the former spring CE show…AKA: the wake by the lake…as the pre-eminent trade show that was great for buyers, sellers, analysts the media and the consumer, too.Facebook and Twitter.

LEE COUNTY, Fla. - The dog days of summer are winding down and one Lee County restaurant is celebrating by giving back to man's best friend. Lee County Domestic Animal Services is distributing more than 2,000 pounds of dog food to it's pet pantry.
Angelina's in Bonita Springs has been running a program called "The Dog Days of Summer." During July and August, every Wednesday a portion of each bill went to buy dog food to be donated to the pet pantry.
Animal services recently launched its quarterly pet food drive to provide food to families who can't afford to feed their animals. It's completely funded by the community and today's donation means dozens of pets will be able to stay in their loving homes.
BJ's also partnered with the program and is responsible for providing the food and bringing it over to animal services today.

November 27, 2014
FORT COLLINS, Colo. (AP) - Colorado State University President Tony Frank has fired athletic director Jack Graham, saying Friday the two had irreconcilable differences of opinion over the direction of the department.
Frank said the firing "is unrelated to the stadium issue." Graham was leading a campaign to raise $110 million by October to get the go-ahead for a proposed $220 million on-campus stadium project.
Frank plans to report to the university's Board of Governors in October about the project and will discuss the impact of the leadership change as part of that presentation.
John Morris, Graham's deputy since July 2012, was named interim athletic director.
The school will conduct a national search for a successor and will announce details later this month.

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) - A mesmerized crowd gathered at the 7th floor waiting-room window of a Tuscaloosa hospital to watch a huge tornado barrel toward them.
Chief nurse Patrice Jones says she was terrified, and rushed to get patients and visitors away from windows and into the hallways. She says people were screaming, crying, and praying.
Wednesday's twister turned away from DCH Regional Medical Center, but ravaged nearby neighborhoods. The hospital treated more than 600 patients, and about 100 had to be admitted.
Hundreds of doctors, nurses and other staffers treated patients lined up on chairs, wheelchairs and cots in the corridors. Nine patients brought to DCH died. The Alabama Emergency Management Agency says the state's death toll has risen to 162.
Dr. Jeremy Pepper says most people they treated had nothing left.

Advanced Water Treatment
Advanced water treatment and water reuse (AWT) is a new water supply source, which increases water use efficiency and water supply currently unused or underused sources. Water reuse and desalination may be the only ways to create "new" water supplies to meet these needs—and to fulfill the U.S. Department of the Interior's (Interior) strategy goals and Reclamation's mission.
Thus, AWT enables Reclamation to partner with water users throughout the West to expand the supply of water to meet growing needs. AWT is not an exclusive program, but cuts across Reclamation as we have many programs, projects, and expertise that incorporate AWT. Each of the programs use the findings of the research and encourages stakeholders to apply AWT rather than conventional treatment when appropriate. There are also a number of Reclamation projects incorporating AWT research to solve problems that have not been solved before and also have implications beyond the project, e.g. the Water Quality Improvement Center at the Yuma Desalting Plant and the San Joaquin Valley Drainage Demonstration Facility.
Reclamation's AWT research investments support a continuum of activities beginning with basic research discoveries leading to lab, pilot, and demonstration-scale testing to show technical and economic feasibility.
Recent items
August 11, 2014, Nine Desalination and Water Purification Research Projects and Pilot Studies Receive $1.4 million from the Bureau of Reclamation. Bureau of Reclamation Acting Commissioner Lowell Pimley announced that nine research projects and pilot studies will receive $1.4 million to address desalination and water purification needs. Reclamation's Desalination and Water Purification Research Program will provide the funding for four research laboratory-scale projects and three pilot testing projects. Two previously announced pilot-scale projects will receive second-year funding. Project Descriptions
March 31, 2014, Reclamation Partners with USAID to Highlight Innovation in Desalination Science. Reclamation is partnering with the U.S. Agency for International Development to launch the Desal Prize – a worldwide effort to identify and promote innovation in brackish groundwater desalination. Reclamation is providing technical guidance to the project and will host Desal Prize semi-finalists at its Brackish Groundwater National Desalination Research Facility in Alamogordo, N.M.
August 29, 2013, Nine Entities will share $1.1 million for Desalination and Water Purification Research. The funding was provided through Reclamation's Desalination and Water Purification Research Program. Through this program, Reclamation works in partnership with entities to develop more cost-effective and efficient ways to desalinate water.
National Academy of Sciences has a report: Potential for Expanding the Nation's Water Supply
Programs and Projects
Reclamation's AWT activities span applied research, pilot, demonstration, appraisal, feasibility, design, construction, opperation and maintenance, and outreach and technology transfer. AWT uses seawater, brackish water, and wastewater.
WaterSMART The U.S. Department of the Interior's WaterSMART (Sustain and Manage America's Resources for Tomorrow) program works for efficient use of water, integrating water and energy policies to support the sustainable use of all natural ersources, and coordinating the waer conservation activities of various DOI bureaus and offices. Reclamation plays a key role as the Department's main water agency.

About The Owner
We are originally from NJ but my husband's grandparents lived in Coaldale, PA which is about 20 minutes from Jim Thorpe. When we were going to retire we decided to look around this area and found this magnificent town of Jim Thorpe. We love the history, the architecture and the fact that there is so much to do in this small town. When we bought our house we decided to invest in other properties and that is how we acquired our rental property. We also liked the fact that the house is just above our home so we are not absentee landlords
The Owner purchased this house in 2005
Guestbook comments from the owner
Spent a week here and it was just great. Convenient to all in town.
The house was clean and comfortable. Hosts went out of their way to make us comfortable.

Matthew West History Lyrics
Last updated: 05/01/2012 11:00:00 AM
Its been a bad day, you've been looking back
And all you can see is everything you wish you could take back
All your mistakes, a world of regrets
All of those moments you would rather forget
I know it's hard to believe
Let me refresh your memory
Yesterday is history
And history is miles away
So leave it all behind you
Let it always remind you of the day
The day that love made history
You know you can't stay right where you fell
The hardest part is forgiving yourself
But let's take a walk into today
And don't let your past get in the way
Repeat chorus
Yeah Yeah
Would you believe that you are history
In the making, in the making
Every choice that you are making
Every step that you are taking
Every chain that you are breaking
History is in the making
Every word that you are saying
Every prayer that you are praying
Every chain that you are breaking
History is in the making
History is in the making
History is in the making
Repeat chorus
Yeah yeah
Oh history is in the making
Every word that you are saying
Every prayer that you are praying
Every chain that you are breaking
History is in the making
History is in the making
History is in the making
Thanks to Surya Lombela for submitting History Lyrics.
Great Songs | Reviewer: Eddy Sactic | 5/1/12
I love this song because it is related to one of my favorite verses in the Bible, the one in 2 Corinthians 5:17 "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!"
Very Motavational | Reviewer: Dianne | 4/20/11
I came across the cd when I was unpacking. Totally forgot about it. I reall y feel this song fits myself and millions of others. It is the first song in the morning. It is also my favorite as I can so relate to it. Thank you so much for sharing this with the world.
WOW | Reviewer: katie | 8/27/10
This song is amazing in that I can relate to it. We have all made mistakes and sometimes we tend to dwell upon them but this song reminds us of the "day that love made history". That day has set us free from all of our mistakes in the past because if we believe in Jesus Christ and how he died on the cross for us then we are no longer bound by past sins because he forgives us. That is what this song is telling us so we no longer need to worry about the past but give that to God but instead we need to be looking at the here and now and how we can serve Him.
IT'S AMZING | Reviewer: Ervin | 10/11/09
It is a nice though people don't understand what it means nyahahahaha! it nice because it is so encouraging evento those who eperienced so much tragedy... like people disgraced by the typhoons in our country the Philippines and tsunami in Indonesia God will care only for those who face these so called "motions"
Inspirational | Reviewer: Bridget | 6/15/09
Wow, this song is so amazing. I think so many kids are so fixated on the past and how they are going to make things right again, but its all behind us already, an we'll always be thinking aout it,, but we have to make the best of it, and always know that God is with us and he will be helping and healing our hearts everyday...He loves us...we're his history..he made us <3
Encouragement | Reviewer: Aimee | 4/11/09
This song is very encouraging... my friend is going through a hard time, and this song popped into my head not minutes after I had been talking to her, so I got back on the computer and emailed her the lyrics. I know this will help her feel better about her future, and anyone else who is having trouble focusing on the present and future, instead of the past.
Very Moving | Reviewer: Cristiano | 12/1/08
I usually do not listen to christian music. I'm not a christian. But recently I've been really reflecting on all the mistakes I've made in life. And there seems to be a ton. I started getting a depressed by this, and then I happened to hear this song. It has made a real difference in me. I think it's very moving and made me realize that everyone has baggage. I especially like the part "You know you can't stay right where you fell. The hardest part is forgiving yourself". How true, I can forgive anyone for ANYTHING, but I can't forgive myself. What a great song. I hope everyone gets from what I have.
Great song! | Reviewer: SamOath | 9/3/08
I love this song so much, it would have to be one of the best christian lyric songs i know of, Im normally a fan of the genre as i normally listen to underoath and as i lay dying and bands like that, but this song is amazing, I can relate to this song so much, i have stuffed up heaps in the past, and asking god to forgive you and start living a life of love and loving others, is one of the best choices you will ever make.
9.5/10 great song
Great Song! | Reviewer: Anonymous | 6/4/08
This is one of my all time favorite Christian songs! I love the lyrics especially because I can relate to them. Many times I have to remember that things that happened yesterday are in the past. You have to ask God to forgive you for what happened and then move on. Don't live in the past and dwell on your mistakes. Always remember that you are making history everyday.

Bobcats vs. Thunder: LIVE Blog
I'm taking over for tonight's LIVE blogging of the Charlotte Bobcats (9-18) game tonight versus Kevin Durant and the Oklahoma Thunder (19-9). Hopefully I won't mess up as much as "Boom Goes The Dynamite" guy on YouTube, but I'm pumped up to see if the Bobcats can turn around their season and get a good home win against a good Western conference team.
Seeing the Lady Cats in Santa outfits makes me definitely in the mood for Christmas this year, which I can go ahead and plug their 2011 swimsuit calendar as a good stocking stuffer. Big shout-out goes to the cover girl Lindsay. I'm hoping to see a Bobcats win to make up for UNC losing by one point to Kevin Durant's old team — Texas. Wallace is out with a left ankle sprain, this being his 4th games missed in a row.
1st Quarter:
Matt Carroll and Dominic McGuire are starting tonight for the Bobcats along with Jackson, K. Brown, and Augustine. Interesting line-up I would say. Kevin Durant gets an immediate 3 pointer, which might be a bad sign for things to come from his shooting. Bobcats haven't found their rhythm yet with a bad 3-pointer by Carroll and a walk…and Durant capitalizes on this with a wide-open 3 and an uncontested alley-oop. At a time-out, a fan shot 4 baskets into the Lowe's barrels and won a $500 gift certificate to Lowe's…man I could use that!
Kwame Brown took an aggressive under the goal bank-up shot and got fouled in the process, which is turning around their momentum as they tied up the game. The arena is pretty crowded tonight, maybe because of their free ticket giveaway last Tuesday night if they had a win over the Raptors. But the arena is still a far, far cry from the old Charlotte Coliseum days where the Hornets fans were extremely loud the entire game. The only fans showing emotion are the 8 guys in the row before me dressed up in orange/blue clothes.
Jackson had a powerful lay-up to the basket with a foul, but then committed a foul with the same exact play on the other side of the court. Bobcats foul shooting is keeping them in the game. Kevin Durant took a hard fall on his own while trying to get a defensive rebount, and the refs called a bad foul because of it. The Thunder tried to make a 3 point shot, but they were too late as the buzzer went off.
Bobcats vs Thunder: 23-21
2nd Quarter:
Guard Shaun Livingston is looking pretty good out on the court controlling the ball and making some shots…but now he just had a dumb foul. So maybe that's the theme tonight. A Bobcats player does something great, then immediately does something bad on the other side of the court. Rookie Sherron Collins enters into the game after three minutes of play after recalling him yesterday from the snappy Maine Red Claws NBA D-League.
Sidenote: I'm glad that Bobcats TV host Caroline is back this year to do the breaks during time-outs…the girl last year acted somewhat inebriated during her breaks and didn't look like she knew where she was at all.
Russell Westbrook had an incredible lay-up move straight to the basket to give the Thunder a one point deficit. Oklahoma City is trying to push the ball too hard down the court when they have a quick turnover, and the balls go out of bounds. Doesn't seem to phase them because Kevin Durant has another wide-open alley-oop. Collins looks pumped up and ready to be back playing after a shot clock expiring 3-point basket. Derrick shows up to give the team a big dunk under the basket, then Kevin Durant repays the favor with a one handed slam dunk uncontested. After two timeouts, Derrick Brown gets a quick steal and comes up with an amazing one handed slam lay-up slam.
Bobcats vs. Thunder: 40-45
Lead scorer is, but who else, Durant with 17 points. Jackson is second with nine. Both teams are right around the same shooting percentage of 38%.
Halftime Show: Impromtu…I'm impromtu-ed to go to the bathroom at this time.
3rd Quarter:
One of the die-hard Bobcats fans in front of me yells out to Durant during his foul shot: "Why Are You SO GOOD?!?!"
Jackson forced a walk on the Thunder and Ibaka goal tended while trying to block a shot to put the Bobcats back in this game after the Thunder scored some early shots. Kwame has had 2 big blocks in this quarter alone so far. Stephen Jackson is starting to heat up and make some shots.
Jackson had a one-handed backwards layup while under the basket to get our fans hyped and take the lead. The Durant show is still going on though, so it'll remain close for probably the remainder of the game. Diaw tries to defend Durant but accidentally puts his elbow right into Kevin's cheek. In a desperation of passing the ball to each other, the Bobcats give it to Jackson who plays off of a weak defender, gets the foul, and makes the three. He 's becoming a connoisseur of these shots. The Thunder had an opportunity to lead at the end of the period, but Russell Westbrook forgot to shoot the ball.
Bobcats vs. Thunder: 69-68
4th Quarter:
Sidenote: A girl keeps on pointing at me saying to her sister that I look like Justin Bieber…when will it ever stop!
Attendance: 16,876 people!…Wow very impressed and from my view it's really packed in here.
Derrick Brown is fouling up a storm, and Durant is already over 3o points with the foul shots he just received. The Bobcats were playing well up to now, but they look like they missing Wallace's fast drives and leadership. Tyrus Thomas gives an awful throw to D. Brown who turns over the ball again.
Sidenote: Kids are fighting over toys during the "Toy Dash" segment of the game. I'm so glad I didn't have to wear the corny elf costumes the promotions staff has to wear when I was doing promotions back a few years ago at the station.
Thunder are taking control now with a 14 point lead as the rest of Durant's team is finally making a lot of shots. Fans start exiting the building after Westbrook makes a long layup followed by 3-4 turnovers from the Bobcats. They should have a T-Shirt toss every break of the game just to get our fans fired up. Now we are down by almost 20 points. Three minutes to play and time to put in the bench players!
Well, this game is a wrap. Bobcats need to hope that Gerald Wallace can return to play ASAP before they can even attempt to win some more games and get over the .500 mark. Even though Derrick Brown had some dumb mistakes, his dunks still look mighty impressive for the highlight reel.
Bobcats lose to Thunder 81-99.

I've noticed a pattern. Odd numbered generations introduce all new Pokemon, while Even numbered ones introduce evolutions and pre-evoltions. Let me break it down.
Generation I
The first one so it obviously introduced only new Pokemon.
Generation II
This generation primarily introduced evolutions and pre-evolutions of Generation I Pokemon, with a few all new Pokemon scattered amongst it. Many baby Pokemon were introduced due to the introduction of breeding.
Generation III
All brand new Pokemon except for Wyanut and Azurill.
Generation IV
The majority of this generation is made up of evolutions for earlier Pokemon. It also introduced split evolutions for Pokemon that already had prior evolutions.
Generation V
Reboot of the series. All new Pokemon. none related to any previous Pokemon.
It should also be noted that Gens. II and IV had many older Pokemon available in the main story, while III and V mostly focused on new Pokemon, with Gen V having no old Pokemon before the league in BW.
If the pattern holds up, I am hoping that we will finally get some new evolutions in generation VI. Like an evolution for male Buneary.

Shrimp Festival kicks off at Fernandina Beach
Updated On: May 02 2014 06:40:00 PM EDT
This weekend marks the 51st annual Isle of Eight Flags Shrimp Festival in Fernandina Beach.
People may notice some changes, including a big name entertainer and the absence of a longtime vendor.
That longtime vendor decided not to come out because of an issue with where it would be set up and a concern about the shrimp not being local.
Organizers said they are still on track for a wonderful festival for the family, full of local shrimp vendors, and they are looking forward to the kickoff Friday night.
"We typically have about 120,000-plus people come down to see us here at the waterfront at Fernandina Beach, and we're excited about greeting everybody again," said Festival Chairman Mark Deaton.
Deaton said it's on track to be another great festival, despite concerns from one vendor who decided to leave the festival after decades.
The Shrimp Producers Association said it was moved to an unfavorable location and expressed concern that not all the shrimp at the festival was local.
"Why would you want to bring in something from overseas when we've got it all right here to produce and support the local economy?" said Michael Adams, of the association. "That's all we ask is that the people support the local economy and the local shrimpers."
But Deaton said there will be 20 booths serving wild caught shrimp and more.
"We'll have 10 or so huge shrimp boats here on our docks all weekend long," Deaton said. "We've got the support of most of the local shrimpers."
"We bring about $16 million into this community over three days," Deaton added. "How does that not support local business? How does being the biggest fundraiser for approximately 50 nonprofits in Nassau County not support local business?"
In addition to shrimp, Singer Edwin McCain is coming and Edgar Hanson from "Deadliest Catch" are coming in on Saturday.
Then there's the arts and craft show.
Rhonda Bristol, of the Island Art Association, said it's a chance to view the art and hear from the artists firsthand.
"We're going to have about 300 artists and artisans," Bristol said. "There will be something for everyone."
Kate Harris, of the Amelia Island Convention and Visitors Bureau, said it means a lot not just for Amelia Island, but for Nassau County.
"It's significant. All the hotels and motels are booked for this weekend, and the estimated economic impact of this weekend is around $10 million," Harris said.
Things kick off at 10 a.m. Saturday at Fernandina Beach. There are all kinds of events this weekend, not just shrimp. Click here for a schedule of events for the Isle of Eight Flags Shrimp Festival.
Last year there was rain, but organizers said even if it rains again this year, the festival will go on.

Negotiations are underway for a new contract between the International Longshore and Warehouse Union and employers represented by the Pacific Maritime Association. This JOC resource provides answers to common questions regarding the negotiations and their potential impact.
West Coast Labor Disputes
West Coast Labor Disputes
Relations between members of the International Longshoremen and Warehouse Union and waterfront employers on the U.S. West Coast have heated up over the past couple years, with protests and other actions in the Pacific Northwest and at ports in California.
The two parties are currently in negotiations for a new contract to replace the one slated to expire on June 30, 2014. For our continuing coverage of the negotiations, visit our ILWU Labor Negotiations page.
Special Coverage
News & Analysis
22 Nov 2014
Another week of the top stories on JOC.com focusing on the crisis-level congestion plaguing U.S. West Coast ports, although one story on Horizon Lines slipped into the Top 10.
26 Aug 2014
The International Longshore and Warehouse Union ratified a new collective bargaining agreement with grain handlers in the Pacific Northwest, spelling the end to an embittered, two-year battle between the two parties and allowing the union to focus on still-unresolved coastwide container talks.
23 Aug 2014
The Port of Portland, Oregon, on Aug. 22 announced the cancellation of a contract covering two reefer jobs with the International Longshore and Warehouse Union, citing dips in productivity at its Terminal 6 facility.
20 Aug 2014
The Port of Oakland was returning to normalcy Wednesday after four days of on-again, off-again demonstrations by anti-Israel protesters involving the Zim Piraeus container ship.
19 Aug 2014
The SSA Marine terminal at the Port of Oakland remained closed Tuesday because longshoremen refused to report to their jobs, even though the anti-Israel demonstrators who had blocked entrance to the facility on Sunday were long gone.
16 Aug 2014
Diversions related to the ongoing negotiations on the U.S. West Coast between the International Longshore and Warehouse Union and the Pacific Maritime Association continue to have an impact elsewhere.
As of today, July 30, there is no U.S. West Coast longshore agreement in place, a month after the previous six-year pact expired. In any contract year, the time between expiration and agreement is especially volatile, because the risk of cargo-disrupting labor actions is at its highest. And the risk of disruption isn't diminishing.

It is a Wednesday in March, and he is hitching a ride from Marlboro station to Sandton station, and from Sandton station to the OR Tambo International Airport station while phase one of the rail system is being tested in preparation for a June 8 start.
Each train also has to run 3 000 km before it can be certified safe to carry passengers.
In less than three months the airport link has to be ready to carry soccer fans at roughly R100 a ticket.
When the train pulls in quietly and smoothly, Van der Merwe steps off the platform and into the blue and gold passenger carrier with a top speed of 160 km/h – a relatively pedestrian speed compared with some other rail links worldwide, but the fastest ever experienced in South Africa.
A civil engineer by training, he has waited a long time to do this. In fact, Van der Merwe first started talking publicly about the project to link Tshwane, Johannesburg and OR Tambo International Airport by rail in 2000. Back then, he was 51, and the head of the Gauteng Transport and Public Works Department.
Even then his dictum, as he spoke about the project, was "pure magic", as it remains today every time he delivers a presentation on the subject.
In 2000, when the project was still simmer- ing in the murky soup of politics and public funding, it was estimated to cost R4-billion, and to carry around 70 000 people a day. Back then, it was thought possible for the train to be operational by 2006.
Today – following a two-horse bidding process, route deviations, an extended tunnel (moving up from the initial 8 km to 15 km), gaining National Treasury approval for the public–private project (PPP), the process of procuring and expropriating land, obtaining environmental approval and securing financing – the outcome is a R25,4-billion project with the potential to carry more than a 100 000 passengers a day. Both phases, the first being the airport link and the second the Tshwane–Johannesburg link, are to be completed by 2011.
Riding the Gautrain
The scurry of people tiling the platforms and providing finishing touches to the station aside, Johannesburg's OR Tambo International Airport station could be in London or Paris – only aboveground and without the cold air drifting in from the tunnels.
The train looks modern and sleek. It moves steadily and sturdily around the bends and through the tunnels, even at its maximum speed.
The seats on the spacious trains used on the airport link are more comfortable than on the commuter-orientated trains to ply the Tshwane–Johannesburg route. However, they are comfortable enough for the 38 minutes the train journey will take between the two cities.
For Van der Merwe to reach the airport from the flagship Sandton station took just under 14 minutes.
En route, the driver, 31-year-old Sipihwe Khumalo, shows how effortlessly the train can reach its maximum speed.
He was unemployed before but showed sufficient skills, such as in mathematics and English, to secure a job as one of 48 Gautrain drivers.
Training takes place over a 50-day period.
Sitting inside the air-conditioned train and travelling along the viaducts on the way to the elevated OR Tambo station, over the congealed traffic below, provides exactly the feeling of relief and relaxation Van der Merwe has been punting vigorously since he first spoke about the Gautrain project.
No traffic. No road rage. No-one skipping and jumping lanes as if they are playing hopscotch.
Should the Gautrain prove as popular as Van der Merwe hopes, there will no doubt one day be some elbow-jostling aboard, but still no traffic jams.
At the other end of the train journey, there will be buses available to transport commuters on dedicated routes around the station, completing the journey from point to point.
For security-conscious South Africans there are around 700 closed-circuit television cameras looking after commuters, says Van der Merwe. Thermal imaging will track activities in the tunnels and at night.
For those wary of Eskom supply reliability, power will be sourced from three different substations, which should mean the system will remain operational during load-shedding, says Van der Merwe.
There are no bathrooms on the train, but all conveniences will be available at the station, including the morning paper and maybe a cup of coffee. Food and drink are, however, strictly forbidden on the train.
The focus is on moving people quickly in and out of the trains and the stations.
The Sandton station is the flagship stop along the airport link, and is located 45 m below ground, with trains pulling in at three levels from various directions.
Claims and Contracts
Van der Merwe says the R4-billion was an initial project guesstimate, which was then pushed up to R7-billion in 2002 by the then Gauteng Finance MEC, Jabu Moleketi.
"We all considered the project and decided we had to make an estimate to work with, so, after the feasibility study, we said it would be around R7-billion in 2002 terms."
However, then came the bids, punctuated by a subsequent commodities, property and construction boom, and prices for every- thing, from consulting fees to concrete, skyrocketed.
Also, Treasury had a rather nasty surprise in store for the Gauteng government, noting that public transport, in this case, was indeed subject to Vat.
Also, the then Finance Minister, Trevor Manual, calculated in 2005 that government's financial liability on the project going forward would be R21-billion.
He presented a forward-looking figure, rather than the R7-billion which focused on present project value in 2002, said Van der Merwe.
Manuel's figure is the number which still remains as the national and provincial governments' exposure to the project, with the remaining costs to be borne by Bombela, the consortium responsible for building the project, and which will also operate the system for 15 years.
Since the signing of the contract, this official number has remained largely stable.
However, persistent rumours have it that the price tag may be higher.
It appears there are two reasons for this, one being project escalation, and the other reports that Bombela will lodge cost claims against the Gauteng government.
As for project escalation, Van der Merwe says the contract allows for price increases in four instances.
The one is rising inflation, as South Africans have witnessed during the recession, with project planning allowing for a range equal to that of the Reserve Bank's target of 3% to 6%, which was well and truly breached in 2009.
A weakening rand may also influence the price tag, as 23% of the contract between Bombela and the province is priced in foreign currency. This has, indeed, happened.
Already the price tag has increased R400-million on the back of these factors, to reach R25,4-billion.
The third factor has not been in play, namely a change in route for the train, with the fourth, claims from the contractor, now possibly entering the arena.
Late Handover of Land
In fact, the biggest threat of cost escalations comes from claims Bombela has instituted against the province regarding, for example, what it says is the late handover of land.
The provincial government was to hand over 1 400 parcels of land at designated periods. Bombela says this was done late, making construction difficult.
Van der Merwe says the Gautrain PPP has a structure that allows for conflict resolution and arbitration. The claim will follow this route.
The claim is purported to be a whopping R10-billion.
Murray & Roberts boss Brian Bruce indicated earlier this year that Bombela was indeed pursuing what he called contractual entitlements.
However, he did not want to provide a number.
Bruce also noted that it was unlikely that Bombela would succeed in its entire claim.
"We'll take a small percentage. Over the decades, it has been shown that you will never take more than an average of 35% as a contractor."
Murray & Roberts forms part of the Bombela consortium.
Van der Merwe says the Gauteng province indeed received a so-called 'delay and disruption submission' from Bombela in August 2009.
However, the provincial government believes the consortium has not established any entitlement in terms of the concession agreement.
The province then requested the concessionaire to clarify the basis of its entitle- ment in terms of the concession agreement but, to date, it has not responded.
The Gauteng province believes the claim will have "very little chance of succeeding". "A decision, taken by the Gautrain political committee and supported by the GMA board, is to oppose this spurious claim. Should the concessionaire proceed with this claim, it will be referred to arbitration for adjudication."
Van der Merwe says he does not know the exact value of the claim, only that it is big.
However, he also points out that R10-billion is a huge number when considering that the entire civil joint venture contract is R12-billion.
"We will obviously look out for our shareholder, which is the taxpayer."
Ridership and Tickets
The most recent ridership study for the Gautrain was done in 2006, and indicated that there would be 135 000 passenger trips a day on the completed system.
However, says Van der Merwe, a new study completed this year indicates that potential ridership has increased to 165 000 passenger trips a day.
This number does not include some big-stick economics that could see commuters use the Gautrain as an alternative to 50c-plus-a-kilo- metre toll fees to be instituted on Gauteng highways in 2011.
Van der Merwe says ticket prices will be designed to be more affordable than private vehicle use, and even cheaper for long-term customers.
Final ticket prices are still being determined.
"We have enough capacity for the new number," says Van der Merwe. "The nice thing about a rail system is that you simply make the trains longer to grow capacity."
It is planned that peak hour trains will make use of eight wagons, with four the off-peak number.
The length of the platforms influence capacity most, with Gautrain platforms able to accommodate 12 wagons.
Van der Merwe is realistic about passenger numbers, though, as much as he is pleased about the new ridership study.
"We will have to wait for about two years to see if it is simply a new thing, or if the numbers are real."
Indeed, such caution is not out of place, particularly given that international rail projects are prone to throwing up some nasty surprises.
However, history also proved to be unkind, if not more so, to other public transport projects in South Africa.
Lamentable Lessons
Addressing the European Federation of Railways Trackworks Contractors in 2005, the then vice-president of the European Investment Bank, Wolfgang Roth, said that real passenger numbers on rail projects always turn out to be 39% lower on average than forecast, and the ramp-up period slower than anticipated.
(That said, though, well-established metro train systems in Paris, London and Tokyo can not keep up with demand, especially during peak hours.)
Also, the construction costs of railway projects are on average 40% higher than forecast.
One example is Korea, which, in 2004, became the fifth country in the world to own and operate a high-speed railway called Korea Train eXpress (KTX).
Numerous uncertainties and challenges during planning and managing phases resulted in schedule delays and cost overruns.
An analysis discovered five major causes for the KTX project delay. These were the lack of the owner's abilities and strategies to manage high-tech-orientated megaprojects; frequent changes of routes triggered by conflicts between public agencies and growing
public resistance stemming from environ- mental concerns; an inappropriate project delivery system; a lack of a proper scheduling tool tailored for such a linear megaproject; and the redesign and change-orders made to main structures and tunnels.
Moving back to South Africa, a drive by government to expand public transport in general in the country has not been extremely successful, so much so that the Gautrain PPP claims – warts and all – for the time being, appear to be a more elegant solution for at least starting operations prior to the date con- tractually demanded.
Consider, for example, Johannesburg's bus rapid transit (BRT) phase one roll-out, which has faced an uphill battle, and which has not yet yielded a verdict of clear success in terms of passenger numbers.
The full phase 1A – 40 km, 48 stations – was meant to be implemented by January this year, but minibus taxi operators' opposition to the system has seen the Johannesburg council struggle to move beyond the starter route, from Soweto to the inner city, which has been operational since August last year, following delays.
This 25-km, 28-station starter route transports around 16 000 people a day – but phase 1A is envisaged to carry 69 300 people a day once fully operational. Will the system reach this number?
BRT systems in other FIFA World Cup cities have, to date, failed to see the light of day in time for the event.
Government's project to scrap old minibus taxis and assist owners to buy newer, safer vehicles is not having better luck either.
Transport Minister S'bu Ndebele announced last year that 27 800 taxis of an estimated national fleet of 90 000 had been scrapped and replaced with new vehicles – ten years after Cabinet first approved the taxi recapitalisation project in 1999.
The project was first to cost R4-billion, and is now up at R7,7-billion.
With all this said, what would Jack van der Merwe do differently should he build another Gautrain?
"I would not again be misled by the time it takes to get environmental approval for the project – we all thought the Gautrain would be on the tracks two years ago."
He adds that he would, however, again make sure he "has the best team possible working on the project".
He also praises the political commitment the project has received – without which it would have been dead in the water. The Gautrain was never put out to pasture every time the empire's keys changed hands.
"This project saw five Premiers and eight MECs in total. This shows you that it is a technically sound project," he muses before stepping onto the platform at the Marlboro station.
Foot on World Cup Accelerator
Bombela is working around the clock to ensure that the first phase of the Gautrain rapid rail link is operational on June 8, in time for the FIFA World Cup kick-off three days later, says Bombela Concession Company CEO Jerome Govender.
Bombela is responsible for constructing the R25,4-billion project in a 54-month contract, and will also operate the rail system for a 15,5-year period.
Phase one was originally to be completed at the end of July, but after much wrangling between the client - the cash-strapped Gauteng government - and Bombela over additional funding, Bombela made a no-cost proposal to complete a somewhat down-scaled phase one in time for the global sports event.
"We have a deal, and now we are pulling out all the stops to ensure completion. Bombela wanted to have this done for the World Cup," says Govender.
Even though commuters will still enjoy the full experience of a train journey, certain elements will not be 100% complete on June 8, such as all the amenities at the Sandton station.
Phase one runs from OR Tambo International Airport to the Sandton station, stopping at the Rhodesfield and Marlboro stations in between.
"Building Sandton station is a complex project," explains Govender. "It is a difficult site because of the 45-m-deep cavern it fills. It is also a tight, built-up environment with not much room to move around the site. We also have so many activities running in parallel that we have a large number of people on site, which means we have to be extracareful in ensuring everyone's health and safety."
Govender says Bombela is already conducting testing and commissioning of the various individual elements of phase one, and that integrated system testing, or trial running, will start mid-April.
"We have to make sure the entire system is debugged, and that it will operate smoothly."
Each train will have two slightly more spacious cars that will be for use by Sandton airport passengers, and will only open its doors at these two stations. The other two cars will be for commuters and will allow entry at Sandton, Marlboro and Rhodesfield stations.
Govender says ticket prices for the airport link will be announced before the June service starts.
There will be no "special World Cup price", says Govender. The prices announced prior to the event will be the ticket prices until inflationary pressure demands that they increase. The direct airport-Sandton link will be more expensive than the commuter link.
The full Gautrain system will make use of 125 buses, of which around 40 will be operational for the World Cup.
These buses will operate on dedicated routes, picking up and dropping off passengers around the stations.
World Cup Gautrain users will also already be making use of contactless smart cards to make their payments.
'Smart' means that a single card can be used to pay for parking at the various stations, for the train journey as well as for the bus ride.
These cards are 'smart enough' to know if a commuter does not use the Gautrain, but only the parking facility or the bus system, and will charge such a user accordingly, says Govender.
However, train users - or so-called 'rail users' - will get a discount the wider their system use is spread. In other words, a Gautrain user will pay a discounted rate if he or she also parks and uses the bus within the rapid rail link system.
Commuters who lose there smart cards and who have registered them with Bombela will be able to have their cards blacklisted, and their funds transferred to a new smart card.
It is the aim of the entire Gautrain system to be cashless, says Govender.
Govender says there is indeed a claim and that a delay and disruption submission has been lodged, but he would not confirm the extent or the value of the claim.
The claim flows from what Govender says was the delayed handover of land to Bombela for Gautrain construction work.
"This is not an unusual process."
He adds that the claim has not soured the entire project.
"Irrespective of the isolated areas of disagreement, the partners' overarching objective is the same: the success of the Gautrain."
Govender notes that Bombela has also thrown money into the pot - R3,5-billion of the R25,4 billion project - and that it would also like to see the system operate to its maximum efficiency.
"That is part of what a PPP is about."
"However, Bombela has an obligation to its shareholders, subcontractors and lenders, and all legal, contractual entitlements must be pursued."
Govender says, in a normal contract situation, it is likely that the contractor would have stopped work on the project because of the dispute.
However, as a partner in the project, Bombela has as much interest as the Gauteng government to see the project succeed.
It also has obligations to its third-party lenders, and is continuing with work.
"Some days, it feels like I have to be Ban Ki-moon and devise a diplomatic solution; and other days, I have to be Attila the Hun and simply get the job done."
Govender is a quantity surveyor by training, with an MSc in urban planning and an MBA from Wits. He was a partner in a surveyor firm and MD of Murray & Roberts Concessions before taking up his current position three years ago.
When phase two is completed in 2011, Govender says he is likely to move on, and maybe then he can spend his Saturdays relaxing, instead of visiting Gautrain sites.
