Electric cars have a road trip problem, even for the secretary of energy
Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm is working hard to convince more Americans to embrace electric cars — and she knows this means the country's charging infrastructure needs to improve, fast.

Wall Street analysts tore down a Chinese Tesla rival and say it's exactly why Elon Musk should be worried about China
â–ª Chinese electric car maker BYD might be the closest thing to a true Tesla competitor.
â–ª Experts say the auto company's Seal electric sedan is comparable to the Tesla Model 3.
â–ª UBS analysts tore down the Seal and found it's a great Model 3 alternative for less.
The Seal, a mid-sized electric sedan made by Chinese EV giant BYD, backed by Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway, is a close rival to the Tesla Model 3. Analysts at UBS recently investigated to see just how comparable to Elon Musk's popular model it might be.
Ultimately, tearing down the Seal — "a good example of Chinese EV models' technological edges and cost optimization" — reinforced the bank's belief that Chinese auto companies are here to stay and dominate the global electric car market, it said in a note to clients.
They also noted BYD's battery technology (coined cell-to-body), allows for more in-vehicle legroom, a unique car shape, improved performance, and — given the tech introduces a more efficient way of integrating the battery — lower manufacturing costs.
UBS analysts did note that incumbent automakers, like BYD, have an advantage over the younger Chinese companies, but that all are progressing.
That growth is not only in China (where Chinese auto firms are expected to outpace foreign companies this year for the first time), but in Europe, too. China is exporting autos at a rapid pace, and Chinese companies dominated conversations at the recent Munich auto show, historically heavily influenced by German carmakers.

The hottest electric vehicles are in China
Few of these EVs, if any, will come to U.S. showrooms.
The Zeekr 009 is every American's dream car. The ultra-luxe cabin comes with massage seats and satiny leather. Futuristic tech like face and voice recognition makes driving effortless. Plus, the capacious 009 packs more than 500 horsepower.
Haven't heard of the Zeekr 009? You're not alone. The all-electric minivan (repeat: all-electric minivan) is only sold in China.
Zeekr, owned by Chinese powerhouse Geely, also produces the 001, a sleek all-electric sedan that can travel 621 miles on a single charge. That's more than double the range of an average EV in the U.S.
"There are so many EVs in China, it's hard to count them," Jared Rosenholtz, editor-at-large at CarBuzz, told ABC News. "There are vehicles of all shapes and sizes ... many of these are not designed for U.S. market."
There are 138 automakers in China, the No. 1 auto market in the world. At least 40 of the 138 are purely electric companies, according to J.D. Power. Last year, EV sales in China totaled 6.9 million units, an increase of 93.4% compared to the prior year, according to the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers.
"It's a market that in many ways is kinda bonkers," Ed Kim, president and chief analyst at AutoPacific, told ABC News. "EVs are exploding out there ... it's the Wild West. The sheer amount of choice is staggering. Companies in China are developing shockingly radical vehicles."
Take the Zeekr 009, for example. Minivans are loathed in America. In China, they're glorified. Minivans are "prestigious" modes of transport, said Kim, and many corporate execs and VIPs are chauffeured in them.
"The Zeekr 009 is the boldest minivan I've ever seen," Kim noted. "A giant screen drops down for passengers. The second row is like a kingly throne. It's extremely upscale and has all-wheel drive. This is not your mom's Dodge Caravan."
CarBuzz's Rosenholtz pointed out, however, that many EVs in China are pint-size and have a fraction of the power Americans crave in their vehicles. One example is the GM Wuling Mini EV Cabrio, a cute convertible that General Motors builds with its joint venture, SAIC-GM-Wuling.
The car can barely hit 60 mph and makes less than 40 horsepower but it's affordable -- less than $9,000 -- and is easy to maneuver around China's congested city streets.
"The Wuling only has 106 miles of range for the top model but cars are used differently in China," said Rosenholtz. "Consumers there drive shorter distances. They need small cars."
Another key difference between Chinese and American EV drivers is the ability to charge overnight, added Kim. "China has extreme population density and even rich Chinese people live in apartments," he said. "Chinese drivers don't necessarily have access to home charging like we do in the U.S."
In addition to electric minivans and adorable convertibles, Chinese automaker XPeng claims its G9 SUV is the "fastest-charging EV" in the world, with the ability to add 200 kilometers of range, or about 124 miles, in under five minutes at a 480-kilowatt charging outlet.
"There's so little awareness of what's in China, probably because of the language barrier," said Kim. "Chinese media is also heavily censored and controlled."
Plus, the U.S. tacks on a 25% tariff on Chinese imports, another barrier to accessing these newfangled EVs.
"Don't hold your breath for an XPeng," said Kim. "Most Chinese brands will be stuck over there."
EVs have been more widely accepted in China partly because the government there "has pushed the EV cause so strongly," said Kim. According to J.D. Power, the Chinese government no longer provides generous subsidies to electric vehicle buyers as of Jan. 1, though consumers are still entitled to a 10% purchase tax exemption until the end of the year.
Tesla, the undisputed EV leader in the U.S., is also insanely popular with Chinese motorists. It produces the sought-after Tesla Model Y and 3 at its local Shanghai factory and operates independently, unlike its overseas competitors.
"Tesla is one of the few foreign automakers having tremendous success in China," Kim said.
Ford CEO Jim Farley recently acknowledged China's outsized influence on the EV market, saying in May, "I think we see the Chinese as the main competitor, not GM or Toyota. The Chinese are going to be the powerhouse."
Yet Tyson Jominy, vice president of data and analytics at J.D. Power, argued that U.S. consumers have a far greater selection of EVs to choose from, such as the GMC Hummer EV Pickup, Ford F-150 Lightning and the Rivian R1T truck. Moreover, "niche" and compact EVs that Chinese consumers drive would not fare well in the U.S. until the public charging infrastructure catches up, he said.
"We get the coolest EVs, in my opinion," Jominy told ABC News. "Fun-to-drive, high-tech, performance orientated -- that's the U.S. market."
If Chinese EVs are staying put in that country, Kim said he's going to them, rather than wait.
"I would love a two-week vacation in China to sample all these EVs," he said.
Como não tenho equipamentos fotográficos, costumo tirar fotos em ambientes com luz natural. Para o tema da semana, tentei exercitar um abordagem que não tenho muita prática, recorrendo a um único foco de luz artificial e modificando o ângulo para gerar formas de iluminação e sombra sutilmente diferentes entre si, porém de um modo que ainda seja possÃvel perceber as mudanças entre cada uma. Apesar de serem fotos simples, foi mais difÃcil de chegar no resultado que eu buscava porque eu estava buscando algo especÃfico, ao invés de apenas querer tirar uma fotografia esteticamente agradável. O tÃtulo desse exercÃcio é um trocadilho com uma música da Taylor Swift que tem esse nome; as rolhas de vinhos são os objetos fotografados e os ‘problemas’ dizem respeito à dificuldade de conseguir um bom resultado, que me satisfizesse.

The slowness problem with pbase may not always be pbase's fault. A tech savvy member of my Digipets group has pointed out "The speed is different for different people because the route from where
they are to the destination address is different so it involves different
routers/servers/etcetera. You can sometimes fault the end address for the
slow access but more often it is one of the other many links in the chain" You can see where your problem is by opening up start/run and entering tracert pbase.com (The tracing is incomplete because when I wait till the 30 hops complete the screen disappears.)

I get paid to hook people up with the information they need to solve problems, be they academic, personal, civic, or otherwise. And reference sources are some of the most
valuable tools I''''ve found to help people move further down
the path of inquiry. Most of the UW Libraries'''' reference sources, whether
specialized encyclopedias, dictionaries, statistical compendia, or atlases, are replete with potential for solving problems, answering questions, and inspiring more of the same.
But during a recent stroll through the reference collection, I stumbled upon this 3-volume set, the <a href="http://catalog.lib.washington.edu/record=b3508150~S6">Encyclopedia of World Problems and Human Potential</a>. That''''s right, the first volume is a thousand-page list of problems. What kind of problems?
It''''s a taxonomy of problems ranging from "abstract fundamental problems", "very specific problems", "emanations
of other problems", and "fuzzy exceptional problems".
A small sampling, each of which you could find a description and cross reference to various human potentials (volume 2) that could be used to address those problems:
animal road deaths
bride burning
apathy
uncoordinated global restructuring of production
broken heart
chronic boredom
civilian casualties of war
dangerous sporting activity
abandonment
environmental hazards of pharmaceutical products
absence of social prowess
anger
airline pilot fatigue
arachnophobia
denial of the Holocaust
abusive sales techniques
welfare Keynesianism
youthful superiority
entrenched politicians
inhibited self-promotion
irresponsible radiologists
lack of accurate maps
pain
threatened floral kingdoms

Det tog mere en halvanden time at sejle ud til øen. Men det var måske også fordi motoren på den anden båd gik i stykker på vej derud. Heldigvis kunne besætningen fra vores båd lave den rimelig hurtigt. Ting herude går altid nemt i stykker, jeg ved ikke hvorfor. På vej derud så vi to delfiner. Men det var kun kaptajnen og jeg der så dem. Men så må de jo lade hver med at sidde og sove i timen, hehe :P
