WOLFSBURG, GERMANY and GENEVA, SWITZERLAND--(Marketwired - Mar 3, 2014) -
The Volkswagen Group is investing more than ever before in eco-friendly vehicles. Last year, Group research and development expenditure rose by 15 percent to the record value of EUR 10.2 billion. "The lion's share is going to �green� technologies," Prof. Dr. Martin Winterkorn, Chairman of the Board of Management of Volkswagen Aktiengesellschaft, explained before the opening of the Geneva Motor Show. He said that the Group was reinforcing its objective to become the world's leading automaker, also in ecological terms, by 2018.
Successful interim assessment on the way to becoming the ecological leader Winterkorn added: "Volkswagen doesn't just talk -- we also act. Last year, CO2 emissions by our EU new vehicle fleet averaged 128 grams/km. That means we are already well under the statutory threshold set for 2015." He said there had also been considerable progress in production: "We are taking great strides towards our goal of making our factories 25 percent more eco-friendly. Specifically, we aim to reduce energy and water consumption, as well as CO2 emissions, by 25 percent by 2018. Thanks to the creativity and dedication of our employees, we are already halfway to achieving this goal. The Dow Jones Sustainability Index also provides convincing proof that we set the ecological standards. The world's most important sustainability ranking listed Volkswagen in first place in 2013."
The world's largest low-CO2 fleet already on the road
Customers can currently choose between 54 model variants from Volkswagen Group brands that emit less than 100 grams CO2/km. 324 model variants are below 120 grams. Winterkorn: "The Volkswagen Group offers the world's largest low-CO2 fleet to have already taken to the road." The range includes 3-liter cars such as the Golf TDI BlueMotion1 or the Audi A3 TDI ultra2 as well as "3-euro cars" such as the eco up!3, which can travel 100 kilometers for about three euros. He said that the plug-in hybrids Golf GTE4 and Audi A3 Sportback e-tron5 were now being added to the "widest range of electric vehicles" -- from the e-up!6 to the Porsche Panamera S E-Hybrid7. Winterkorn: "Further high-efficiency models such as the Audi A8, A6 and Q7 or the plug-in hybrid version of the Volkswagen Passat are to follow soon. Because this technology has a future."
Modular toolkits safeguard future orientation
The Group's modular strategy in production means that it will be possible to electrify more than 40 models over the next few years. Winterkorn: "Our modular toolkits place us in a position to develop and build our cars faster, more flexibly and more economically than in the past. We can offer even greater variety -- as well as producing niche models in a profitable way. Our toolkits also mean that we can offer all our innovations and powertrains in all segments and markets within a very short space of time."
Life cycle assessments
Winterkorn announced that Volkswagen would consistently expand its sustainability program. "We are not satisfied with just making eco-friendly cars at eco-friendly plants. We conceive and shape mobility in holistic terms. From power generation, through development, production, sale and operation to the recycling stage. With an environmental strategy that is firmly anchored and measurable with respect to all the brands and regions of the Volkswagen Group." According to Winterkorn, a life cycle assessment, i.e. a balance sheet indicating the environmental impact of a vehicle over its entire life cycle, would be produced for more and more vehicles, in line with the life cycle engineering approach.
Implementation of the environmental strategy along the value stream
The environmental strategy of the Group is therefore being implemented in a binding, measurable way in all relevant business areas along the value stream. For this reason, the high sustainability requirements of the Group are now a firm component of contracts with suppliers. Volkswagen is also the first German automaker to have joined the Clean Shipping Network in order to analyze and reduce the environmental impact of marine transport. Another example is energy efficiency advice for all Volkswagen brand dealerships in Germany, with a view to reducing the CO2 emissions of partner companies by 25 percent by 2020.

More news from American Honda, as the 2011 Honda CB1000R will be priced at $10,999 when it finally comes to American soil in the new year. The Honda CB1000R goes up against the industry-wide belief that naked sport bikes don't sell here in the United States (there might be a point to that line of reasoning), and the CB1000R will have to contend with another new but not-so-naked liter-bike contender: the Kawasaki Ninja 1000 (Z1000SX to our European friends, or misguided Americans).
There certainly is more than one motorcycle manufacturer competing for the hearts and minds of riders who are looking for a sporty bike, without the sporty sitting position. As for the incumbents, Honda seems to have priced itself slightly above the Yamaha FZ1 ($10,490), and Kawasaki Z1000 ($10,599), which isn't terribly shocking and sticks to their usual pricing scheme. True to American fashion, you can get the 2011 Honda CB1000R in any color you want, as long it's black. Photos and technical spec's after the jump.

For Tony Recchio, UB is more than a job; it's a family he's known since birth. Tony's father worked in operations at UB for more than 30 years, and his mother was a programmer at Roswell. He grew up knowing several staff members who are still with UB today.
"I was raised around computers and they always fascinated me," Tony said. "I was attracted to technology being multi-faceted; I never like doing the exact same tasks day in and day out."
Before joining UB, Tony worked with Healthcare Plan (now Univera), but he jumped at the chance to join the university when an opportunity opened up. "I left a Monday through Friday day shift job with my own office to working third shift with no office. I even took a pay cut. All I can say after 13 years with UB, it was totally worth it," he added.
Tony's home at work is the Network Operations Center (NOC). He now works the day shift over the weekend monitoring the entire campus' network and computer systems. "We are the 24/7 watch dogs of the Computer Information Technology (CIT) department," Tony said. "If something goes wrong, we're usually the first ones detecting the problem and coordinating service restoration efforts. We try to resolve problems quickly to minimize the impact on the campus community."
A big part of working at UB is the constant need to learn and grow. Staff are encouraged to take classes and sharpen their skills. "I'm a problem solver by nature," Tony continued. "Working in the NOC means I'm always learning new ways to solve problems. When you work in IT, you quickly realize that the learning curve never ends."
Protecting students, faculty, and staff from threats is a daily part of Tony's job. "I work in coordination with the Information Security Office to identify and remove internal threats," he added.
Outside of UB, Tony has a variety of hobbies. "Like most geeks, a lot of my interests are technology-related," Tony said. "I'm often playing video games like Call of Duty and Halo and also have a large collection of movies and music. I enjoy web design and helped my church and a local wildlife rehabilitation organization with their sites. I also enjoy reading as much as possible. I just ran my first marathon in September 2012 and hoping to do more. I just never have enough time."
When asked what he hopes for his future at UB, Tony has no complaints. "I'm happy to be at UB and hope to stay here permanently," he added. "I love my current role, but I'm also interested in network applications. Things are always changing in IT and I'm glad to keep growing with UB."

NEW YORK (AP) — Houston and Atlanta traded places in the AP Pro32 NFL power rankings.
The Texans moved to the top on Tuesday following their 13-6 win over the Chicago Bears, while the Falcons dropped to second after their first loss of the season, 31-27 to the New Orleans Saints.
Houston (8-1) was a unanimous choice, receiving all 12 first-place votes and 384 points from The Associated Press' panel of media members who regularly cover the league.
Atlanta, the NFL's other one-loss team, received 362 points, while the Bears remained third with 341 points. San Francisco was fourth with 339 points, and Denver moved up three places to fifth with 334 points.
"Tough victory at Soldier Field earns Texans the No. 1 spot," said Sporting News' Clifton Brown.
Newsday's Bob Glauber singled out the Texans' defense, which forced four turnovers and sent Bears quarterback Jay Cutler to the sideline with a concussion.
"Some well-earned fist pumping from Texans defensive coordinator Wade Phillips, whose unit one-upped the host team's D," Glauber said.
Houston was first in the power rankings for three weeks earlier in the season, but relinquished the spot to Atlanta after losing to Green Bay on Oct. 14.
Atlanta's loss drew a variety of comments.
"Trust me, that loss will be good for these guys," CBSSports.com's Clark Judge said. "Now, the pressure they feel is not from trying to keep an undefeated season intact; it's trying to win a playoff game."
Then again, some voters saw a loss coming.
"The season-long problems rushing the football and stopping the run came back to bite the Falcons in their first loss against New Orleans," said Foxsports.com's Alex Marvez.
Despite the loss, the Bears held third as they prepare for Monday night's showdown against the 49ers, whose quarterback Alex Smith left Sunday's game with a concussion.
Peyton Manning and the Broncos are on the rise after their fourth straight win.
"Peyton + defense + special teams (equals) quite a combination," said ESPN's Chris Berman.
The New York Giants, meanwhile, fell four places to No. 10 after losing to Cincinnati, which improved five spots to No. 17.
"Another year, another second-half swoon for the Giants," noted Newsday's Glauber. "This time, Eli Manning's the biggest issue; no TD passes in his last three games. That hasn't happened since his rookie season."
The New York Jets are sliding, too, down to 26th after their third straight loss.
"This team is a mess, no matter what Rex Ryan or anyone says," said Sporting News' Brown.
Philadelphia is trending downward, as well, falling four places to No. 24 after its fifth straight loss. Eagles coach Andy Reid is under fire, quarterback Michael Vick has a concussion, and rookie Nick Foles might wind up starting in Sunday's game against Washington.
"In two months, there won't be enough brooms for this housecleaning," said the Tampa Tribune's Ira Kaufman.
Indianapolis remained 12th after its win over Jacksonville. The Colts are at the Patriots this weekend.
"Andrew Luck takes the baton from Peyton Manning in the Colts-Patriots rivalry," Glauber said. "Win or lose, Colts very much in the playoff hunt."
Don't count out New Orleans, either. The Saints jumped four places into a 13th-place tie with Tampa Bay.
"Right now they probably deserve to be higher ... but they have early failures that can't go away just yet," said SiriusXM NFL Radio/CBSSports.com's Pat Kirwan. "New Orleans is running the ball, Brees is unstoppable, and the defense is getting more pressure on opposing quarterbacks."
Jacksonville is No. 32 and last.
"Mike Mularkey has taken to throwing things. And some think his throws have been more impressive than Blaine Gabbert's," the Chicago Tribune's Dan Pompei said.

Temporary electronic tattoos could soon help people fly drones with only thought and talk seemingly telepathically without speech over smartphones, researchers say. Commanding machines using the brain is no longer the stuff of science fiction. In recent years, brain implants have enabled people to control robotics using only their minds, raising the prospect that one day patients could overcome disabilities using bionic limbs or mechanical exoskeletons.
But brain implants are invasive technologies, probably of use only to people in medical need of them. Instead, electrical engineer Todd Coleman at the University of California at San Diego is devising noninvasive means of controlling machines via the mind, techniques virtually everyone might be able to use. His team is developing wireless flexible electronics one can apply on the forehead just like temporary tattoos to read brain activity.
"We want something we can use in the coffee shop to have fun," Coleman says.
The devices are less than 100 microns thick, the average diameter of a human hair. They consist of circuitry embedded in a layer or rubbery polyester that allow them to stretch, bend and wrinkle. They are barely visible when placed on skin, making them easy to conceal from others. The devices can detect electrical signals linked with brain waves, and incorporate solar cells for power and antennas that allow them to communicate wirelessly or receive energy. Other elements can be added as well, like thermal sensors to monitor skin temperature and light detectors to analyze blood oxygen levels.
Using the electronic tattoos, Coleman and his colleagues have found they can detect brain signals reflective of mental states, such as recognition of familiar images. One application they are now pursuing is monitoring premature babies to detect the onset of seizures that can lead to epilepsy or brain development problems. The devices are now being commercialized for use as consumer, digital health, medical device, and industrial and defense products by startup MC10 in Cambridge, Mass.

MANILA, Philippines (AP) — The Philippine Department of Justice has announced that murder charges have been filed against four suspects in the fatal stabbing of a U.S. diplomat's husband.
Prosecutor-General Claro Arellano said Thursday that the murder charges were filed two days ago before a Makati city court against four Filipino suspects in the killing of U.S. Marine George Anikow. He did not say why there was a delay in the announcement of the charges.
Anikow, an Afghanistan war veteran and father of three, died of stab wounds in the neck Saturday. The four men allegedly attacked Anikow after a heated argument at the gate of an upscale residential compound.
A CCTV camera captured the attack on video, and prosecutors say a security guard who witnessed the brawl has identified the suspects.

Catholics believe in heaven. We also believe in hell. Those beliefs are articles of faith, revealed in Scripture and tradition. But, according to a new book by social critic and Christian apologist Dinesh D'Souza, Scripture and tradition aren't the only witnesses to the existence of an afterlife.
In a new book, "Life After Death: The Evidence" (Regnery, $27.95), D'Souza argues that reason and science also bear witness to heaven and hell. Recently, Our Sunday Visitor spoke with D'Souza about his book and the case he makes for life after death.
Our Sunday Visitor: In the book, you set out to prove the existence of life after death by means of reason and science. Why did you attack the question from that angle?
Dinesh D'Souza: We're living in an age of a new and belligerent form of atheism. These atheists regard religion as not only erroneous but — thanks to events like Sept. 11 — as positively harmful. Where atheists used to say we've never seen evidence of life after death, today they say that people who do believe in an afterlife are dangerous: Because of that belief, they fly planes into buildings.
Accordingly, I wanted to write a book that inspired not only the Christian reader, but also showed the fence-sitter or seeker that the very tools of reason and science to which atheists appeal to disprove the existence of an afterlife actually end up proving its existence.
OSV: At their core, what's wrong with atheists' arguments against life after death?
D'Souza: They claim that there's no evidence, no proof, of its existence, but it's a fallacy to believe that absence of evidence is evidence of absence. If you lived a couple thousand years ago and looked up at the sky, you would see a handful of stars, the moon and, maybe, Venus. Based on that observation, you could conclude that's all that there was — no more planets, moons or stars, only what you saw.
Today, we can see how shortsighted that conclusion would have been — shortsighted because it mistakenly assumed that "not found" is the same thing as "found not to exist."
OSV: How unique — historically and culturally — is the denial of an afterlife?
D'Souza: The belief in life after death is universal. There is no culture and no religion that denies it. Some religious traditions, including forms of Buddhism, are "atheist" in that they pay no attention to God, but they still affirm an afterlife. Only in modern times and only in one culture — the West — do we see it. Atheists today are very arrogant. They say: "We know we're the minority but who cares. The rest of the world is ignorant and will eventually come around to our point of view."
That attitude is having a lot of influence on our culture, so we need to challenge atheists with their own weapons: history, philosophy, science. If all we do is keep repeating the claims of faith, that allows atheists to claim that they, not us, are the apostles of reason.
OSV: In your book, you use arguments from science, philosophy and morality to make the case for an afterlife. What, for example, does morality have to do with proving the existence of life after death?
D'Souza: As humans, we live in two worlds: the world of the way things are and the world of the way things ought to be. And we seem to be the only creatures who live in these two worlds. It never occurs to a horse or an elephant to say, "You shouldn't do that," or "You have a duty to do this." Why not?
Evolution says we are creatures who exist to survive and reproduce. But morality, far from telling us to go ahead and do what we want to improve our prospects of success in the world, tells us the exact opposite. Morality tells us, "You want to do this, and it may improve some things for you, but don't do it." That's not a voice from the outside, but the inner voice that resides in the heart.
It's almost like there's a legal standard built into human nature. But where does it come from? Who passed those laws? Where are those laws going to be enforced?
It's a great mystery. But if there is another world after this world, a world in which we are going to be judged for our actions, morality becomes completely comprehensible.
OSV: You say some of the most compelling evidence comes from people's so-called life-after-death experiences. Why?
D'Souza: Atheists recognize the power and potency of this kind of evidence because it's empirical — it's the experience of thousands of people who cannot all be written off as kooks or liars.
OSV: What about neuroscience? Can it support a belief in the existence of life after death?
D'Souza: The argument from neuroscience is rooted in something Socrates argued long ago. He spoke about how humans are made up of both the material and immaterial. The material stuff has attributes. It can be weighed and measured. But not the immaterial. No one can figure out the width of our conscience.
Likewise, bodies have expiration dates, but it doesn't follow that the immaterial part of us has the same limitations. Think about the vapor in a bottle. If you smash the bottle, you haven't smashed the vapor. Rather you've released it.
Atheists, however, have undertaken a supreme campaign to refute that idea. They claim that the mind is the same thing as the brain. And we know the brain dies. So, if our mental faculties — our souls, free will, emotions, etc. — are all reducible to the movement of neurons in the brain, then all those things die along with the brain. Which means there couldn't be life after death because there was nothing left to live on.
To demonstrate that point, they'll point to studies that show a correlation between the physical operations of the brain and the mental or emotional consequences. But that doesn't prove that the mind and the brain are the same thing. Just because two things are correlated doesn't mean that the physical action causes the mental action.
OSV: Is there a value of believing in an afterlife to individuals and cultures?
D'Souza: This is a deeply practical question. Yes, there is value in at least two ways. First, if there's no life after death, we're like passengers on the Titanic. We can rearrange the deck chairs and turn up the music, but ultimately we're doomed.
If there is life after death, however, everything changes. We can face death with more courage and peace because we can see it as a gateway to another life. Second, a belief in life after death gives us reason to hope in justice. We can hope good will be rewarded and evil punished. We also have a reason to teach morality to children, and it can give our own life a sense of meaning and purpose.
OSV : In your book, you talk about a Western approach to death and dying. What is that approach, and does it make some more susceptible to atheists' attacks on the idea of an afterlife?
D'Souza: Having grown up in a different culture — Bombay, India — it has long struck me that America and the West in general have a very different attitude toward death than the rest of the world. In most cultures, death is part of life. Funeral processions through the streets are a regular sight. It's normal to see bereaved widows and relatives. It's also more normal for children to be exposed to death because most people die at home. Death is accepted as part of the rhythm of life.
In the West, however, it often seems like we're living in denial of death. People rarely die at home: They die in hospitals. The immediate family often isn't present, and children are almost always shielded from it. All that suggests that we're living like we're never going to die.
That's a very adolescent attitude. It's normal for teenagers to live in that stage of temporary insanity where they think they're immortal, but for an entire culture to remain in that stage is unhealthy. There is a taboo to thinking and talking about death, and, yes, that taboo prevents people from really engaging in thought and discussion about what comes after this life. My book is an attempt to help explode that taboo.
Emily Stimpson is an OSV contributing editor.
The danger of abandoning the ground of science and reason, however, is that it compels Christians to live in the land of two truths. There is one truth we hear in church and there is another truth that we hear about in the general culture. Revelation — the language of religious faith — becomes divorced from reason, which is the language of education, work and secular society. ...
To reclaim the hijacked territory, Christians must take a fresh look at reason and science. When they do, they will see that it stunningly confirms the beliefs they held in the first place.

Washington – Democrat Joaquin Castro has defeated Republican David Rosa and will represent the 20th congressional district in Texas, according to Fox News.
Castro, who is Mexican-American, is considered a rising star of the Democratic Party and is the twin brother of San Antonio Mayor Julian Castro (he jokingly says he's the one without the wedding ring), who delivered the keynote speech at the Democratic National Convention in September.
Castro was a representative of the 125th district in the Texas House of Representatives.
The 20th congressional district represents much of the city of San Antonio and is currently represented by Democrat Charles Gonzalez, a chair of the congressional Hispanic caucus.
Gonzalez is retiring, which will put an end to nearly four decades of district representation by his family. Castro defeated Rosa, an insurance salesman. The 20th district is about 64 percent Latino and has a majority of Democrat registered voters. (55 percent)

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — University of Iowa President Sally Mason privately briefed leaders of the school's governing board Thursday as she continues to review the handling of an athletics department official who resigned after being accused of sexual harassment for years.
An Iowa Board of Regents official confirmed that Mason met with three members to discuss the case of Peter Gray, who resigned last week after an internal investigation accused him of improperly touching student-athletes and a range of other inappropriate conduct.
Regents had no comment after the meeting, which came a day after records showed that Gray had been fired from a previous job at Coastal Carolina University for poor performance before Iowa rehired him in 2002.
University spokesman Tom Moore said he expected the school to release more information about its review "in the near future."
From 1993 to 1995 and again from 2002 until last week, the 59-year-old Gray worked in Iowa's athletics student services and was most recently in charge of monitoring the academic progression of student-athletes.
Employees told investigators from the university's Office of Equal Opportunity and Diversity that Gray's improper touching, which included shoulder massages and hugging, continued throughout both employment terms despite complaints from coworkers, coaches and at least one athlete.
Investigators said Gray had traded football tickets for nude photographs with someone outside the university and had inappropriate photographs on his work computer, including a screen saver of the men's swimming team and individuals engaged in sex acts with stuffed animals or toys. Gray is not under criminal investigation.
The case raises questions about why Gray was rehired, what prompted the university to take action now, and whether earlier complaints were effectively addressed. Critics have also wondered why Gray was allowed to resign rather than be fired and whether the university wanted to keep the matter quiet since it only became public because the Iowa City Press-Citizen obtained the confidential investigation report.
Gray, meanwhile, has picked up support from some former athletes who credit him for working long hours to help them academically.
"He's probably the reason that I graduated," said former Iowa swimmer Seth Tweedy, who was on the team from 2002 to 2007. "It breaks my heart to see him not being able to do what he loves, because he was the best at what he did."
Tweedy said he did not believe the allegations against Gray and questioned whether they were politically motivated.
Mason told KGAN-TV in an interview Wednesday that she would use the meeting with regents to lay out "a really sound strategy for going forward." She told the station, in her first interview on the case, that school officials were working quickly to learn what happened and would take appropriate actions.
"Believe me, I'm as impatient as everyone else in terms of understanding the full scope of what we're dealing with here and understanding all the facts so that we can make the best decisions possible," she said.
History professor Jeffrey Cox, chair of a university oversight subcommittee on academic achievement in athletics, praised Mason's approach.
"I think President Mason is doing the right thing here by trying to make sure she has all the information," he said. "It would really be a terrible mistake to act prematurely in various ways on this until she knows exactly what happened and when."
In a statement Thursday, Conway, S.C.-based Coastal Carolina confirmed Gray was fired in 1999 after less than a year as its director of retention and advisement because of "unsatisfactory work results." The school's review found no evidence that Gray committed misconduct.
Indiana University also confirmed Thursday that Gray worked as an athletics department advisor from 1999 until 2002. A spokesman said the school was still checking into the circumstances of Gray's departure and work history.
The University of Mississippi said Wednesday that Gray was the athletic department's director of academic support from 1995 until he resigned in 1998.

CARSON, Calif. – Omar Gonzalez is heading back to the MLS All-Star Game, but first he wants to shore up the LA Galaxy back line amid string of late game breakdowns.
The defender was included in the Fan XI for the 2013 AT&T MLS All-Star Game, which pits Italian side A.S. Roma against the MLS All-Stars at Sporting Park in Kansas City, Kan. on July 31. The All-Star call is the third of Gonzalez's career as the center back was named to the 2010 and 2011 editions.
The 24-year-old may get a chance to play in the match for only the second time as he was unable to play in 2011 after suffering a broken nose.
"I'm very happy about getting selected to the MLS All-Star Game and be an All-Star again," Gonzalez told reporters. "It makes me really happy to go there again and go to Kansas City to represent MLS well."
Gonzalez will be joined by Galaxy captain Robbie Keane, who will be making his first appearance on the squad. The Irish forward was selected by MLS All-Star and Sporting Kansas City head coach Peter Vermes on Monday to fill out the rest of the 20-man roster for the match.
Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena admitted that he was pleased to have two of his players join the squad in Kansas City.
"It's great. It's a great honor," said Arena. "They've both had a great year and they're very well deserving of the recognition."
Individual honors and personal recognition may be all well and good, but before Gonzalez can focus on any of those matters, he understands that he has plenty of work to do with the Galaxy. LA are continuing concede late goals and drop points, an issue that has plagued the team throughout the year.
To date, LA have conceded eight goals in second half stoppage time and when that occurs—like it did in last Saturday's 2-1 defeat to the Portland Timbers—they are 0-6-0. Since the start of the 2013 campaign, the Galaxy have allowed nearly two-third of all of their goals in the final 15 minutes, often times seeing wins become draws and draws become losses, illustrating their need to be more efficient when closing out games.
After last week's failure in Portland, the 2013 MLS All-Star defender expects a much better showing on Saturday against Vancouver Whitecaps FC.
"It just has to do with focus and having that fight to want to win the ball. When the ball is up in the air, you have to be stronger than the next guy and fighting like hell to get that ball," said Gonzalez. "That's just something that we have to be a little bit better about. We've been talking about it over and over that it's like a broken record. We have to be really aggressive and want to win more than the next team."

Devon Energy (NYSE" DVN) is an international, independent oil and gas company that operates primarily in the U.S. but has major production centers in Canada, China, Azerbaijan, and West Africa. The company is one of the five largest holders of deepwater properties in the lower tertiary section of the Gulf of Mexico[1], though production in the area is not expected to start until 2010. Deepwater exploration is both costlier (and made more so by the increasing day-rates of oilfield services companies) and riskier than traditional off-shore drilling, as finding reserves becomes more difficult. The company also controls 75% of the Barnett Shale's production volume, a natural gas deposit that is the second largest producing on-shore domestic natural gas field in the United States. It is the most important customer to Boardwalk Pipelines contributing about 11% of Boardwalk's revenue (2009).
Overall profitability for the company is threatened by increases in royalties paid to the Alberta government over oil sands production, terrorism and political instability in West Africa, China, and Azerbaijan, and hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico. Devon's closest competitors are Anadarko Petroleum, Apache, and Comstock Resources.
Devon operates by selling its hydrocarbons to range of customers: utilities, refiners, pipelines, industrial users, and others. The company's most significant customer is refiner and oil giant Exxon Mobil.[2]
In 2009, Devon drilled 1,135 gross wells. It drilled 336 wells in the Barnett Shale field in north Texas in 2009, bringing its total producing wells in the field to almost 4,200 as of December 31, 2009.[3] Devon is running 16 operated drilling rigs in the Barnett. In addition, the Company drilled 47 wells in the Cana-Woodford Shale in western Oklahoma in 2009.[3] The Company drilled eight Haynesville Shale wells in the greater Carthage area of east Texas in 2009. Offshore Brazil, Devon participated in two deepwater discoveries in 2009. Its Itaipu and Wahoo are pre-salt prospects located in the Campos Basin.[3]
The Company has certain midstream assets, including natural gas and NGL processing plants and pipeline systems. Its major midstream assets are its assets serving the Barnett Shale region in north Texas. These assets include approximately 3,100 miles of pipeline, two natural gas processing plants with 750 million cubic feet (MMcf) per day of total capacity, and a 15 thousand barrels (MBbls) per day NGL fractionator.[3] The Northridge plant has a capacity of 200 MMcf per day. Its midstream assets also include the Access Pipeline transportation system in Canada.[3] This 220-mile dual pipeline system extends from its Jackfish operations in northern Alberta to a 350 MBbls storage terminal near Edmonton. The Company has a 50% ownership interest in the Access Pipeline.[3]
Second Quarter 2010 Results (ended June 30, 2010)[4]
For the second quarter of 2010, Devon Energy reported net earnings of $706 million, or $1.59 per common share ($1.58 per diluted common share). This is a 125 percent increase compared with Devon's second-quarter 2009 net earnings of $314 million, or $0.71 per common share ($0.70 per diluted common share).
Earnings from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2010 increased 85 percent over the second quarter of 2009 to $352 million. The earnings increase was driven by higher revenues from the sale of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids. Second-quarter sales of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids increased 23 percent to $1.8 billion. Higher realized prices for all three products more than offset a three percent decrease in overall production.
Devon's second-quarter average realized oil price increased 23 percent to $62.35 per barrel compared with $50.84 per barrel in the second quarter of 2009. The average realized price for natural gas, before the impact of hedges, increased 24 percent in the second quarter of 2010 to $3.62 per thousand cubic feet. This compares with $2.91 per thousand cubic feet in the second quarter of 2009. The company's average second-quarter realized natural gas liquids price increased 39 percent over the year-ago period to $30.90 per barrel.
Oil and gas production from continuing operations averaged 643 thousand oil-equivalent barrels (Boe) per day in the second quarter of 2010. This compares with second quarter 2009 average production of 666 thousand Boe per day. The most significant component of this production decline was the impact of property divestitures in the Gulf of Mexico.
In the second quarter of 2010, Devon completed the sale of its Gulf of Mexico operations and closed on the sale of its Panyu development in the South China Sea. To date, Devon has received aggregate pre-tax proceeds of $4.6 billion and has announced sale agreements for the majority of the remaining international assets. The company expects to close on the remaining asset packages throughout the second half of 2010. Devon expects the total proceeds from the divestitures to approximate $10 billion with after-tax proceeds approximating $8 billion.
As of June 30, 2010, the company had utilized a portion of divestiture proceeds to repurchase 7.6 million shares of its common stock for $495 million and to reduce debt balances by $1.7 billion. Devon also has directed $500 million of proceeds to acquire a 50 percent interest in the Kirby-Pike oil sands leases.
Barnett Shale, located in north Texas, is the Company's largest property. Its leases include approximately 663,000 net acres located primarily in Denton, Johnson, Parker, Tarrant and Wise counties. The Barnett Shale is a non-conventional reservoir and it produces natural gas and NGLs. The Company has an average working interest in the Barnett Shale of 89%. Devon drilled 336 gross wells in 2009. The Carthage area in east Texas includes primarily Harrison, Marion, Panola and Shelby counties. Its average working interest is 86%, and holds approximately 218,000 net acres.

In the second quarter of 2010, Devon completed the sale of its Gulf of Mexico operations and closed on the sale of its Panyu development in the South China Sea. To date, Devon has received aggregate pre-tax proceeds of $4.6 billion and has announced sale agreements for the majority of the remaining international assets. The company expects to close on the remaining asset packages throughout the second half of 2010. Devon expects the total proceeds from the divestitures to approximate $10 billion with after-tax proceeds approximating $8 billion.
As of June 30, 2010, the company had utilized a portion of divestiture proceeds to repurchase 7.6 million shares of its common stock for $495 million and to reduce debt balances by $1.7 billion. Devon also has directed $500 million of proceeds to acquire a 50 percent interest in the Kirby-Pike oil sands leases.
Oil and gas prices have fluctuated heavily over the past few years, though the most recent trend is a rise in prices, with a barrel of oil trading in international market a day after the new year at just over $70. Because both are nonrenewable forms of energy, slowing discoveries of new sources combined with increasing pricing has led to speculation that production is approaching peak oil quantities. Whether this is true or not, oil and gas are commodities: one company's gas can only be differentiated from another company's gas based on price. While Devon currently benefits from high prices, the profitability of the current market will drive increased exploration and production, which could eventually cause prices to fall and margins to drop.
Devon is the second-largest leaseholder in the Lower Tertiary of the Gulf of Mexico[5] (after Chevron[6]); it was one of the first companies to strike black gold in the Lower Tertiary, back in 2006, though production in the area is not expected to start until 2010. Deepwater exploration is both costly, as increasing demand has pushed day-rates of oilfield services companies way up, and risky, as finding reserves becomes more difficult. The rewards of deepwater exploration, however, could be tremendous: oil companies need to find new reserves to supplement the maturing ones. Successful deepwater hits are often extremely rich in oil and gas, and deepwater Gulf properties are not subject to the political risks of reserves in developing nations. An example of deepwater rewards was seen in November 2007, when Brazilian oil company Petrobras discovered 5-8 billion barrels of oil equivalent in the deepwater Tupi field off the coast of Brazil[7]. Successful deepwater exploration and extraction could combine with high oil prices to be a tremendous boon to Devon's business, though repeated failures in finding reserves would waste millions of dollars and drive margins down. Furthermore, if oil prices fell, the hit Devon would take to its margins would be greater than most competitors, since the company is so heavily invested in high-cost, high-risk areas.
In 2007, the government of Alberta announced that it would increase the total amount of royalties paid by companies developing Alberta's oilsands by 20% - about 1.4 billion Canadian dollars. Oil companies like Devon saw drops in net profitability in 2009 when the law took effect, though it should be noted that industry efforts to lobby the tax away were mildly successful - most Albertans favored a much higher tax.[8]
Moreover, the strengthening Canadian Dollar (C$) has affected bottom-line results to the extent that Devon has shut down conventional resource production in light of escalating operating costs. The combination of rising costs and the exchange rate hit has hurt Canadian results.[9]
Devon has about a 75% stake in the North Texas Barnett Shale by production volume[10], an area that has delivered tremendously in the past. Though most of the easy-access wells are beginning to mature, there are purportedly rich reserves in the area that simply require more complicated technologies to access. In 2007, Devon announced that because of the royalty increase in the Alberta Oil Sands, it would move some of its capital from Canada to the Barnett Shale.
Outside of North America, most of Devon's operations are based in West Africa, China, and Azerbaijan. Unstable governments pose threats to Devon because of their unpredictability when it comes to taxation, war, currency fluctuations, trade regulations, and nationalization. Furthermore, in areas that are politically unstable, there is a high risk of terrorist attacks, especially on western establishments like Devon's facilities. Though these areas are rich in oil and gas, Devon's profitability in each of them is unpredictable because of the possibility of political and terror-based cost shocks. The overall effect of these areas on Devon's business is not very large, as they comprise only around 9.5% of Devon's reserves[11], but as North American reserve production begins to slow in the future, development in these unstable zones could become more important.
Because of the geological position of many of Apache's sites, the company risks production failures and rising costs from natural disasters. Highest visibility growth prospects center around the deepwater Gulf of Mexico plays in the Lower Tertiary, which is subject to weather (hurricane) risk. After the 2005 hurricanes (Katrina, Rita, etc), catastrophe insurance has been hard to come by and as the company puts it, their coverage in this respect is "de minimis."
Hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico during the third quarter and storms in the North Sea during the fourth quarter can damage equipment, hurt employees, and make transportation of products very difficult. This leads to higher costs and lower profits all around.
Devon's main competitors lie in the independent oil and gas sector, since the major oil companies like Exxon Mobil and BP are too large and diverse to fairly be called competition. Among Devon's independent competitors are Anadarko Petroleum, Cabot Oil & Gas, Comstock Resources, EnCana, and Apache. Anadarko Petroleum is the largest of these, and possibly the most similar, as it produces mostly in the Rockies and the Gulf of Mexico, with some drilling activity in Algeria. Comstock Resources is the smallest of Devon's competitors, and is also betting on deepwater exploration to deliver in the future. Apache's strategy is a unique one; the company buys up mature properties from oil majors and then extracts more from them, taking advantage of the high price level to keep margins up despite the use of expensive technology. Apache is expanding on the Gulf shelf, a zone that Devon is leaving alone.
Cabot Oil & Gas and EnCana are both heavily invested in natural gas (only 3% of Cabot's reserves contain liquids[12]); if Devon's gas production from the Barnett Shale and its deepwater reserves continues to increase, it could be in closer competition with these two in the future.

DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::ADO::Microsoft_SQL_Server::Cursor - Remove trailing NULLs in binary data and normalize GUIDs for MSSQL over ADO
This class is for removing trailing
NULLs from binary data and removing braces from GUIDs retrieved from Microsoft SQL Server over ADO.
You probably don't want to be here, see DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::ADO::Microsoft_SQL_Server for information on the Microsoft SQL Server driver for ADO and DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::MSSQL for the Microsoft SQL Server driver base class.
Unfortunately when using DBD::ADO, binary data comes back padded with trailing
NULLs and GUIDs come back wrapped in braces, the purpose of this class is to remove the
NULLs and braces. DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::ADO::Microsoft_SQL_Server sets cursor_class to this class by default. It is overridable via your connect_info.
You can use DBIx::Class::Cursor::Cached safely with this class and not lose the binary data normalizing functionality, ::Cursor::Cached uses the underlying class data for the inner cursor class.
See "AUTHOR" in DBIx::Class and "CONTRIBUTORS" in DBIx::Class.
You may distribute this code under the same terms as Perl itself.
