Picasso of the Sea

Many years ago I was visiting my friends at the Dolphin Research Center in the Florida Keys.The director, Mandy Rodriguez, asked if I would like to paint with some of the dolphins.I, of course, wondered how this was going to work and made my way back to a lagoon where, to my surprise, a small group of bottlenose dolphins greeted me with excitement.As I sat on the edge of the dock and readied a set of water-based acrylic paints, the dolphins became more excited.I, too, was intrigued about collaborating with these highly intelligent mammals.If any animal on Earth besides humans could create a work of art, it would most certainly be dolphins.I passed a paintbrush to a dolphin named Kibby, who took the handle in her mouth.Next, I held up a canvas, and she immediately began to paint with a Picasso flair, laying down each stroke with a twist of her head and, finally, a 360-degree spin.When she was done, she passed the brush back to me and watched as I painted my part.Two very diverse marine artists, Kibby, the dolphin, and I, the human, shared a single canvas.But we discovered that we also shared something else——the sprirt of joy.Together, we had created something uniquely beautiful, a one-of-a-kind collaboration between artists of two different worlds.I told my friends on the dock later that it was just the salt that

made my eyes water.But they knew how I felt about making such a wonderful connection with one of these beautiful creatures.When the painting was finished, Kibby smiled a big dolphin grin.She nodded her head in approval of the completed work, then lifted her flukes above the surface and dived.A few seconds later she brought me the highest honor a dolphin can give, a gift from the sea——a rock!

Keiko the Whale

We ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean.But the ocean would be less because of that missing drop.Mother Teresa

If you have kids, you’ve probably seen the movie Free Willy about a boy who saves a young orca from the clutches of an unscrupulous owner.But in real life Free Willy was far from free.The orca, whose real name was Keiko, was captured in the Atlantic Ocean, near Iceland, and lived in captivity after the filming of the movie in a small cement pool at an amusement park in Mexico City.The conditions of the park were poorly suited to an animal of this size, and Keiko developed a skin disease that resulted in lesions throughout his body.Here was literally the biggest movie star in the world, sick and languishing.If something wasn’t done quickly, Keiko’s future looked grim.Fortunately, word of Keiko’s situation was spreading rapidly around the world.Many people wanted to help, and so did I.I had been introduced to Keiko through the Mexican tourism authority at keiko’s residence at the Reino Auentura Park in Mexico City.The minute I leaned over the holding tank and saw the five-ton animal, I knew I had to do something …quick.His flippers and flukes were covered with skin growths, and he was thousands of pounds underweight.It sounds kind of strange, but Keiko and I bonded.As I scratched him I said that I would return and do everything I could to make sure he was returned to

his native waters off Iceland.In exchange for his release, I agreed to paint a giant public mural of Keiko swimming free with his family at the entrance to the park.A few months after the mural was completed, Keiko was moved to a larger, temporary home at the Oregon Coast Aquarium to recuperate and prepare for his return to Iceland.Eventually, he gained weight and learned how to catch live fish.He was ready to be flown back to the cool waters of his northern home.Millions of children who had raised nickels and dimes to save Keiko were now keeping their fingers crossed, hoping that Keiko would soon be reunited with his orca family in the wild.The transition took some time.Keiko continued to undergo rehabilitation in a special baypen near Iceland’s Westman Islands and eventually began to take more interest in his natural environment.For the first two years, he seemed content to travel back and forth between his pen and the wild ocean, not quite certain about what to do with the strange underwater wilderness to which he had been returned.There was certain about what to do with the strange underwater wilderness to which he had been returned.There was certainly nothing human about it, and for most of his life, that was all he had known.Then, during a training rendezvous with a small pod of orcas at the southernmost tip of the Westmans, Keiko bolted toward open sea.This time, however, he didn’t turn back.A satellite transmitter indicated later that he was headed for

Norway and soon had taken up an active, healthy residence in Taknes Bay.Suddenly, for the first time since his capture more than twenty-two years ago, Keiko was not in a captive facility or a netted pen.His decisions were now guided by instinct and his innate orca intelligence——an intelligence that we have yet to fully comprehend.No one can say for certain what the future holds for this special whale whose journey has taken him so far.But I, like millions of others, am hoping that after all these years of captivity, he can adapt and thrive in the wild and become truly free——not in the way of some Hollywood script——but as nature intended from the very beginning.Wyland

Remember we are amazing

For a long time, I’ve been thinking a question: Why do I make myself sink into such a busy condition? This question keeps haunting me every day when I run to attend classes outside school after finishing courses at university, come back late in the evening and work on the computer till 2 am.There is no date, no weekend and no entertainment, my life is filled with courses and missions.I complained a lot and always regretted, the word which I said most is “How good it would be if I didn’t do that!”

Last week I met a new foreign teacher at Web where I get training on oral English.He is a vigorous Scottish who likes jumping and dancing when he is on teaching.He told us he had been to more than 20 countries and done various jobs in different areas.I was totally attracted by his experiences, so I had a chat with him after the class.“I like your life-style and hope to lead a life just like you do, but I don’t know what to do.”“What do you do, darling?”

“I’m a postgraduate major in colorectal surgery.”

“That’s cool!I’m a doctor too, I’ve gotten a Ph.D.I was a psychologist in Scotland.”

“Oh, that’s a good job!But you have chosen another way of life.You’ve travelled around the world and you’re leading a wonderful life.”

“Yeah, I’m enjoying.Now I’m a teacher.I teach science, maths, psychology and football all week in Singapore International School, and I teach English at Web here on Sunday and at the Pudong center several evenings a week.”

I was surprised by his full schedule.After a short silence, I asked him the question which troubled me a lot, “Why do you have to be so busy? Don’t you feel tired? I’m busy and I’m annoyed.”

“Ah, I didn’t tell you but I got cancer last year and 90% of my colon was removed in Fudan cancer center.I just want to do as more as I can to enrich myself.I love whatever I am doing right now because I’m still alive.”

Again I was surprised.He is so different from the patients who got cancer.“That’s unbelievable!I mean you are really tough.How could you keep such a passionate state every day? I hate being so busy, but you are enjoying it!”

Charlie smiled at me, “You are busy because you need to be busy.‘Need’ means you have a purpose and want to get something.Don’t be afraid.We can tough it out.”

Then he held my shoulder tightly.It seemed that he wanted to convey some power to me.“Remember we are amazing.We are able to deal with many things that are beyond our imagination!So keep busy, darling.You are amazing!”

Valuing the Warranty Ceiling Clause onNew Mexico Highway 44Using a Binomial Lattice Model

Abstract:

In 1998 the New Mexico State Highway and Transportation Department(NMSHTD)agreed to pay $60 million for a 20-year pavement warranty on their Route 44 project(NM 44, now US 550).The warranty includes a ceiling clause that caps total expenditures at $110 million.As the first long-term highway warranty in the United States, the transaction set a controversial precedent that parties interested in innovative highway contracting, including other state department of transportations(DOTs), the USDOT, sureties, and contractors, view as a test case for evaluating pricing and cost-effectiveness.An interim audit report published by the State of' New Mexico [Abbey(2004).Rep.to the Legislative Finance Committee, State Highway and Transportation Department.Santa Fe.N.M.]provides invaluable fiscal projections and challenges the cost effectiveness of the $60 million expenditure.This paper presents an independent analysis of the effectiveness of the warranty clauses.Based upon NMSHTD data, the analysis contends that $60 million was a fair cost of the 20-year pavement warranty at the time of acceptance if the expenditure ceiling is not considered.Furthermore.this paper argues that the ceiling on expenditure can be valuable.Using the real options approach, the paper evaluates the warranty ceiling clause on NM 44 and some policy suggestions are discussed.Introduction：

State Departments of Transportation(DOT)turned increasingly proactive when awarding large highway pavement contracts as a result of the United States Federal Highway Administration's(FHwA)Special Experimental Projects(SEPs).SEP No.14, implemented in 1990, opened the door for innovative contracting methods including lane rental, cost-plus-time bidding, design.build techniques, and warranty clauses.The warranty clauses hold contractors liable for reparationfor performance failures within a warranty period that typically extends from 5 to 7 years.Though New Mexico was not among the original eight states that initiated the use of warranties under SEP No.14.they have since evaluated the option of warranty contracting and success-fully applied it to the New Mexico State Route 44 Project(nowU.S.550),which traverses 118 mi(190 km)from 1-25 at San Ysidro northwest to Bloomfield, near the Four Corners area.When considering the prospect of infiltrating the northwest corner ofNew Mexico, New Mexico State Highway and TransportationDepartment(NMSHTD)[renamed New Mexico Deparunent of

Transportation(NMDOT)in 2003], determined that the future maintenance and rehabilitation costs of the upgraded 118 mi of roadway would total about $16,000/lane-mi/year over a service life of 20 years(May et al.2003)totaling just over $15I million.Additionally, they determined that the roadbed and surface upgrades would take almost 27 years to complete using normal contracting methods.In an effort to keep the highway in good condition for the long term, NMSHTD purchased a 20-year warranty agreement from MesaPDC who in turn guaranteed the pavement performance during the warranty period.Thc' NM 44 warranty broke new ground in both length and cost.Itwas the first long-term highway warranty in the United States and.,at $62 million, the most expensive.Since conception, its economics and applicability to other projects has been a subject of debate.Moreover, the two ceiling clauses in the warranty agreement that limit cumulative traffic volume and maintenance expenditures have been neither examined nor evaluated.In this paper we address the cost effectiveness of the warranty clauses in the NM 44 project.Warranty Provisions for NM 44

Two primary participants, NMSHTD and Mesa Project Development Contractor(PDC), a division of Wichita, Kan.-based Koch Performance Roads, Inc., cooperated on the NM 44 project.The NMSHTD laid out design criteria, performance requirements, and oversight procedures, and estimated a life-cycle cost to establish the overall present value of the expected maintenance during the 20-year warranty period.Through team building and open communications, NMSHTD was able to monitor performance without responsibility for performance, while Mesa PDC was able to gain insight into the development and award process along with the limitations and constraints that had to be addressed.To carry a long-term warranty agreement, a professional services contract was introduced.Basic items included delineation of responsibilities and appropriate protocol for repairs, costing, and reimbursement.The final price on the warranty was comprised of $60 million for a 2pavement warranty and, $2 million for a 10-year structures warranty to cover bridges, drainage, erosion, etc.for a total of $62 million in warranty liability.Mesa

PDC also agreed to a 3.5% inflationary risk on future maintenance costs.Based on these numbers, the warranty pricing was $6,400/lane mi/year, a 60% reduction as compared to the initial evaluation(Mav et al.2003).Additionally, the warranty duration was limited by three ceiling clauses:(1)20 years of service life:(2)4,000,000 equivalent single axle loads(ESALs);and(3)$114 million in total expenditures, of which $1 l0 million is the ceiling for the pavement warranty and $4 million is the ceiling for the structure warranty.Thus, in return for $62 million.Mesa PDC agreed to provide up to $114 million in repairs over a period of 20 years or 4 million ESALs.To ensure the fiscal liability was met.the warranty was also backed by a performance bond.The parties established what constitutes warranted pavement defects based on objective criteria such as smoothness, rutting, transverse crack spacing, crack width, potholes, depressions.bleeding, raveling,and delaminations.Because the warranty provider shoulders the risks associated with performance, they have a strong incentive to assure quality in the design, composition, and construction of the pavement.The parties also developed plans to monitor performance and perform both preventative and routine maintenance to ensure the highway’s health.Discounted Cash Flow Analysis

In a recent interim report of the NM 44 warranty audit, the state of New Mexico challenged the cost effectiveness of the $62 million warranty(Abbey 2004).This interim report and its predecessor(Abbey 1999)provide invaluable cost projections on the NM 44 project and the associated warranty.Using these data we conducted our own cost analysis based on the information available to the NMSHTD when they made the warranty decision in 1998.So for this analysis,all warrafity benefits and costs incurred during the construction and warranty period were discounted back to the decision time in 1998, and all costs ,and payments were assumed to fall at the end of the year.Additionally, we considered only the pavement warranty which is valued at $60 million and explains 96.8% of the total warranty cost.Ignoring the structures warranty, which is valued at only $2 million, reduces ambiguity without any significant impact on the results.Farthermore.Abbey(2004)estimates that the structures warranty will expire before the end of the 10-year warranty period, while the pavement warranty probably will remain in effect for the entire 20-year term.Discussion and Policy Suggestions

Due to the ceiling clause, the price of the warranty provisions in the NM 44 project

does not reflect the real cost to the NMSHTD.The ceiling clause, valued at 4.8 million/year 1998 dollar as calculated, represents additional revenue to Mesa besides the $62 million warranty payment from NMSHTD.By declaring the ceiling clause, Mesa PDC in fact eliminates unfavorable risk while keeping profitable uncertainty.What Mesa gains is what NMSHTD loses since this is a zero-sum game.The actual cost for the warranty provision in the NM 44 project goes up to 57.3 million/year 1998 dollar.The hurdle rate of a viable warranty provision falls to 4%(Fig.6).Considering that the NMSHTD had to borrow at a higher interest rate to finance the NM 44 project.the warranty provision is not justified because of the high cost of the ceiling clause.It is suggested that the state highway agencies carefully evaluate the ceiling clauses when requiring warranty services in selling infrastructure projects.A twofold analysis needs to be conducted so a better decision can be made.First, one must realize that the ceiling clause may be costly.The model developed in this paper is a handy approach to evaluate the ceiling clause value.Second state agencies should better determine a favorable ceiling when including ceiling clauses in the warranty.A sensitivity analysis indicates that the value of the ceiling clause is elastic to the determined ceiling.A 10% increase of the ceiling in the NM 44 warranty provisions would reduce the option price of the ceiling clause by 30%.Therefore, careful selection for a ceiling can significantly reduce the impact of the ceiling clause.The ceiling clause, in essence, is a call option that provides flexibility to switch a decision after more information is available through locking in risks while leaving the favorable uncertainties open.The real option concept provides powerful tools not only for contractors, but also state agencies ceiling clauses or other trigger points in uncertain cash flows.One potential application of the real option concept in warranty contracting is to delay the warranty decision until the end of construction when more performance information is available(Cui et al.2004).Then future maintenance savings could be estimated more accurately, and a better decision can be made on whether to purchase a warranty.Acknowledgments：
