Source: Connecticut Post, BridgeportSept.儲存 20--The sad, sordid saga of former House Speaker Chris Donovan's failed 2012 bid for the 5th Congressional District is just about closed out, 15 months after it exploded and sank his political career like the U.S.S. Maine in Havana Harbor back in 1898.The scandal won't really be finished until Halloween, when the mask finally comes off Ray Soucy, the brash former prison-guards union leader and back-slapping Democrat who got snared by the FBI doing something of the "alleged" variety.Common wisdom is that Soucy somehow was on the periphery of a long-running federal probe into the Waterbury-area gambling industry and accordingly became engaged as an undercover source.Soucy then was persuaded to wear a federal wire and started rounding up illegal campaign contributions, including nearly $28,000 funneled to Donovan's self-defeating campaign staff, led by Josh Nassi and Robert Braddock.They are not "donations," by the way. You give donations to Goodwill, WMNR or the Connecticut Food Bank. Political contributions are not altruistic. They are calculated amounts of money to support one's personal interests in a candidacy. There is no charity involved.Indeed, Soucy kept harping on the desire of his backers to kill legislation in the Capitol, to which Nassi, Donovan's former General Assembly attorney, was recorded saying "I'm working on it."Soucy's partners were a group of knuckleheaded smoke shop owners in Waterbury, including a former local cop, who decided to use straw contributors in attempt to shield their identities -- in violation of federal law -- when they could have easily written the checks themselves, legally. They all pleaded guilty to federal charges.Yeah, $28,000 is enough money to buy a used pickup truck and Nassi and Braddock needed to raise $3 million to run an election that was first seen as Donovan's divine right, then became Elizabeth Esty's seat when the speaker's traditional union support sat on their hands for the primary.Halloween is the scheduled date for U.S. District Judge Janet Bond Arterton to sentence Soucy, of Naugatuck, for his role in the case that resulted in a total of eight arrests. Donovan, who has denied wrongdoing, has not been arrested or indicted. He's ancillary damage, though, like that wreck of a battleship in Havana Harbor 115 years ago.Braddock, who took a chance on a jury trial, got 38 months in prison. Nassi, of Fairfield, received 28 months last week after his guilty plea and is scheduled to enter prison the day before Soucy's sentencing."I know that I've hurt so many people. I'm sorry for my family, coworkers, friends and people who hear about this story and feels differently about our government," Nassi said in court the other day. "I hope that people can forgive me and they can understand our government is better than my actions and have faith in our political system."Arterton said she hopes that Nassi will make himself available to student groups and public-service organizations and offer his experiences as a case study in the unacceptability of political corruption. Arterton told Nassi's attorney, Bill Bloss of Bridgeport, that his pre-sentencing memorandum was worthy of a Pulitzer Prize nomination, but she believed that Nassi was the center of the corruption."The court is certainly aware of the kind of pressure mentality that a campaign builds迷你倉up," she said. "But what is essential -- if you are working in politics, much less if you are leading a campaign -- for one whose candidacy advocates the transparency and openness in government, is to maintain your moral compass. This was not a hard call. Mr. Nassi wasn't in over his head enough to not recognize what was going on. He was truthful to law enforcement, by and large, unlike some of his co-defendants. He didn't invent the scheme. But he was the key. He may have been a latecomer, but he was the key. He should have pulled the plug."If there's nothing else that law school teaches, is respect for the law."--In a court of a different kind last week, Hartford state Superior Court Judge Kevin Dubay listened to the latest arguments in the drawn-out, nine-year-old school funding case called the Connecticut Coalition for Justice in Education Funding versus Gov. M. Jodi Rell.Four assistant attorneys general tried to have the case dismissed on existential grounds, charging that plaintiffs don't have a stake in the issue; and the argument that Gov. Dannel P. Malloy's educational reforms of 2012 should be allowed a few years to see if results get better."We're still arguing over ridiculous legal jargon," said Bridgeport Mayor Bill Finch, after the hour-long argument. "The world 'child' was never mentioned once by the state of Connecticut, or even us."The attorneys general also argued against the submission of testimony from Jim Finley, a member of the coalition who is also executive director of the Connecticut Conference of Municipalities (CCM), of which Finch is the president of the board."How is the state prejudiced by their filing?" Dubay asked. "There is bias in his position," argued Assistant Attorney General Eleanor Mullen of Finley. "That hardly makes him incompetent," Dubay replied."There are children in Connecticut who as we sit here are being harmed," said Megan K. Bannigan, an attorney with the New York-based Debevoise & Plimpton LLP, lead attorney for the coalition. "We have to allow something for these children who have been waiting for nine years for their day in court."Supporters on the plaintiffs' side note that Malloy, then mayor of Stamford, was an original party to the lawsuit but now seems opposed to it while Attorney General George Jepsen's office fights it."The governor has increased education funding every year since being elected, with most of $152 million last year in additional funding to high-needs school districts," said Andrew Doba, the governor's spokesman. "Through additional funding and reforms in the bill he championed last year, we're making great strides in improvements to public education."A note from Mr. Potato Head: The winners of last week's inadvertent French quiz include Madame Johnston of Stamford; Monsieur Nightingale of Seymour and Monsieur Cameron, of wherever he is at the moment on the Metro-North rail line. They all noticed that my reference to tomatoes at farmers markets was grounded all too well. Indeed, I wrote "pommes de terre" in a second reference, making them tomatoes of the earth, or potatoes.kdixon@ctpost.com; 860-549-4670; twitter.com/KenDixonCT; .facebook.com/kendixonct.hearst; blog.ctnews.com/dixon/Copyright: ___ (c)2013 the Connecticut Post (Bridgeport, Conn.)

Source: Cape Cod Times, Hyannis, Mass.儲存Sept. 20--The latest results from the Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System are a mixed bag, with third-grade English scores dropping across almost all of the Cape and seventh-grade math scores mainly on the rise.MCAS scores, which the Massachusetts Board of Elementary and Secondary Education released this morning, show that Falmouth, Mashpee, Sandwich, Sturgis Public Charter, Dennis-Yarmouth Regional and Upper Cape Regional Technical high schools had across-the-board increases in the percentage of students scoring "advanced" in all three subject areas: English, math and science.- Search for MCAS results by school for Cape Cod & the Islands -Sturgis Public Charter School led the Cape for having the highest percentage of advanced students in all subject areas, with 83 percent of math test takers scoring advanced.Barnstable and Bourne high schools saw declines in the percentage of students advanced in math and sc迷你倉ence.The state cited two schools, Mattacheese Middle School in West Yarmouth and Mashpee Middle School, for performing in the lower 20 percent of schools in the state.More than 90 percent of the Cape's 10th graders met the required minimum MCAS score needed for a high school diploma in all three tests subjects.At Chatham High School, now part of the Monomoy Regional School District, 26 percent of 10th-graders failed the math test.It was the highest percentage of failed scores on the Cape, followed by Barnstable with a nine percent failure rate, also in math.Monomoy Schools Supt. Scott Carpenter said the results were skewed by the small number of students who took the MCAS."You have 22 students that are in this cohort that took this exam," he said. "It is an extremely small sample size."Copyright: ___ (c)2013 the Cape Cod Times (Hyannis, Mass.)

■本報記者 徐淼蘋果終於開始“正視”中國市場了。日前,mini storage蘋果公司召開新品發佈會,這一次的新品發佈與眾不同:第一次推出兩款手機iPhone5S和iPhone5C、第一次在中國(北京)召開發佈會。此外,iPhone5S和iPhone5C將于9月20日在中國內地與美國、澳大利亞、日本等地同步上市,這也是中國第一次成為首發市場,而在此之前,蘋果產品往往是在發佈兩個月後才在中國內地上市銷售。但在北京發佈會結束後,蘋果手機並沒有像以往那樣得到業界的叫好。因為此前,對於新手機的發佈,外界期待蘋果公司將取得兩大突破:一是推出一款價位較低的機型,以奪回在全球最大電信市場——中國失去的市場份額;二是與中國最大手機運營商中國移動聯手合作。可是,此次北京發佈會卻讓“圍觀者”的期望落了空。在北京發佈會上,除了向受邀媒體播放凌晨美國舊金山全球發佈會現場視頻,重申了最便宜的一款iPhone5C售價為人民幣4488元(該價位高于外界預期)外,中國三大運營商高管全數缺席,蘋果也隻字未提與中國移動的合作。種種跡象,似乎預示著什麼。據悉,在新浪微博上,“蘋果發佈新iPhone”的消息分別在發佈會當天的熱門微博和熱門話題中占據第二和第四位,但其中多為“吐槽”和詬病新機設計與價格的內容。中國坐上“首發席”很多人把蘋果首次在中國召開新品發佈會,首次將中國列入新產品首發地看作是其重視中國市場的結果。而在中投顧問IT行業研究員王寧遠看來,蘋果選擇在華首發的原因主要是:iPhone5C定位低端,目標市場客戶群主要集中于發展中國家消費者,而中國作為世界上最大的發展中國家自然成為了蘋果首發的理想選擇。此外,在iPhone4和iPhone4S的銷售中,中國消費者為其做出了較大貢獻,這引起了蘋果公司的高度重視。市場研究公司預計,明年,中國市場的智能手機總銷量將達到4.21億台,而蘋果目前在中國的市場份額僅為5%。與此形成對比的是,中國是除美國之外蘋果的第二大市場、銷售收入超過其總收入的20%。“中國是全球最大的智能手機消費市場,蘋果不得不重視中國市場。”易觀國際分析師王珺對《中國貿易報》記者如是說。但原因不僅如此。據易觀智庫最新發佈的數據,今年第二季度,蘋果手機在國內手機市場的份額僅排名第七,是當季市場份額跌幅最大的品牌。而過去一年來,蘋果在中國智能手機市場的佔有率已經減半,跌至5%。王寧遠分析指出:“之前,蘋果在中國的市場佔有率較高,是消費者個性化追求使然,但如今,國產智能手機的技術水平已經得到大幅提升,並且價格實惠,搶佔了部分蘋果的市場份額。此外,繼iPhone4S後,蘋果新款手機品質低於市場預期,消費者也開始紛紛嘗試其他品牌手機。”面對流失的市場和收益、自身技術優勢的衰減、市場多元化帶來新的競爭格self storage的形成,蘋果也不得不開始向中國市場“表達善意”。新產品廉價是個“傳說”可惜的是,蘋果對中國市場的“示好”並沒有得到預期的效果。新品發佈前,很多人對蘋果“親民廉價款”iPhone5C充滿了期待。甚至有評論認為,iPhone5C意味著蘋果向中端手機市場投去了目光與精力,或將挑起價格戰。但隨著發佈會的結束,人們發現這種擔憂並沒有必要。首先,雖然對於iPhone5C的手機定價,官方解釋是“沖著”中端手機市場去的。但“iPhone5C的定價與中國的智能手機價格戰沒有什麼直接關聯,中國手機市場的價格戰主要集中在中低端機型。”王珺說。其次,iPhone5C在中國市場的定價為最低4488元,僅比最低售價為5288元的iPhone5S便宜了800元,同時,iPhone5C在美國市場的定價是549美元,折合人民幣3361元,香港市場的定價是4688港幣,折合人民幣3701元。“iPhone5C雖然號稱低價機,但其價位依然較高,相比華為、聯想甚至三星的一些手機,基本無價格優勢可言。”王寧遠表示。很顯然,只是換了個彩殼的iPhone5C的價格並沒有“縮水”多少,“廉價中低端機”的宣傳似乎更像是在為消費者畫餅充飢,業界甚至已經開始質疑蘋果“低配高價”。如此種種,倒顯得蘋果的低價策略只能是個“傳說”。與中國移動合作仍未落實此外,對於讓廣大消費者期待的蘋果與中國移動合作的傳言,在發佈會上也沒有被證實。現如今,業界對於二者的“結合”更是�說紛紜。王寧遠認為,蘋果與中國移動合作的可能性較小,雖然移動的客戶量位於電信運營商之首,但是3G建設卻遜色于聯通。3G是移動互聯網的重要載體,移動在這方面存有短板或將降低蘋果尋求合作的積極性。此外,如果蘋果與移動合作,意味著移動將對蘋果進行一定補貼,而在補貼額度上仍存有較大爭議。王珺則表示,蘋果與中國移動合作的可能性很大,之前沒有達成協議的主要障礙有幾點:其一,移動的3G是TD-SCDMA,當時的適用範圍較窄,而且技術成熟度較低,蘋果要考慮到投入產出以及用戶體驗的問題;其二,移動是最強勢的運營商,在一些利益的分配上難向蘋果妥協;其三,移動在3G運營初期,對終端的投入相對較小,而從2012年第四季度至今才加大了對終端的投入。由於發達國家智能手機市場逐漸飽和,有巨大開發潛力的中國市場對於蘋果的重要性不言而喻。即便目前已經在超過100個國家和地區的240多家運營商銷售蘋果手機,但世界上最大的移動運營商中國移動的缺席對於蘋果來說仍是巨大的“損失”。業內人士分析,從長遠來看,與中國移動合作蘋果公司或許可以扭轉在華下滑頹勢,有望重新點燃iPhone在中國的銷售市場,再次成為消費者心目中的第一大智能手機品牌。對於如何把中國移動“收歸帳下”,確實值得蘋果好好規劃。迷你倉

  港台電視節目新季度,存倉將由下星期一開始,未來一年的節目,除了照顧香港人對本土口味的需求,還要拓闊觀眾視野;另一方面,港台在數碼電視廣播上的發展,又再踏前一步。  新季度,除了把兩個免費電視台的播映時段互調之外,還有連串新節目。助理廣播處長(電視及機構業務)施永遠指出,今年主題是「天大地大.前看」。施在過去一年的觀察,是紀錄片十分受歡迎,如講及海洋生態的《海底交易》就有不錯反應,不難發現香港觀眾的口味更多元、接受能力更高、求知慾更強。「所以我們未來的節目要強調世界性,以及世界時事和香港的關係,電視節目不止於劇集,公營廣播機構的作用,是要提供更多選擇、製造良性競爭。」展望世界  港台有更多自製紀錄片,如 11 月播映的《天人合一》,就帶出世界各地對環保的睇法,其中大陸有人以兩極、陰陽五行角度看環保,非常有趣。此外,《功夫傳奇》將於年底播出第 3 輯,這次講中國功夫的無遠弗屆,已形成不同文化,例如它可以流傳至緬甸、俄羅斯,又或者泰拳也可找到中國功夫的蛛絲馬�。  施永遠表示,港台節目內容以質取勝,而明年則會推出《氣象萬千》和全新一輯的《華人移民史》,「前者是颱風的故事,現時我們同事常四出追風,每次知道打得就去追,去過菲律賓、台灣等地,拍攝個風的形成、走勢、登陸、造成的破壞等。至於《華人移民史》,就會到日本、南美等地採訪。」  港台電視部總監陳敏娟補充:「自家製的紀錄片,有別於外購或西方主流媒體的紀錄片,我們會用香港人的眼睛看世界、思考問題。」陳又透露,港台攝製隊將走進南美亞馬遜森林,拍攝探討水資源的紀錄片。本土面貌  放眼地球村之外,陳敏娟又指,香港觀眾仍渴求本土故事,因此「展示香港人面貌和社會現象」也是新季度的節目方針,最新一輯《香港故事》道出 10 個「香港人幫香港人」的個案,「主題是互助,都是一些市民自發去幫助人的故事,例如幫助窮困學童的『義務補習隊』,發起人是教會幹事,在社交網招募了 200 名義工、找合適場地、定收生準則,然後到街市貼街招,而小販們都很樂意幫助,讓來自基層家庭的小朋友可以補習。」陳表示這些微小的力量,足以在社會中發揮作用,緩和現時紛擾、緊張的氣氛。  真人騷形式的《窮富翁大作戰 III》,不單叫富人走入低下階層家庭、體驗生活,這次更有新元素,「參加者要多走一步,他們要利用自己的社會經驗、關係、條件、能力,為該家庭提出改善方案,需要邊拍邊想,例如其中一個 case,參加者擅長烹飪,因此教人如何在小小的廚房用電飯煲煮出不同�菜。」這次《窮富翁》以食物、房屋、教育、壟斷為題,希望不同階層人士對社會問迷你倉有更多理解。  此外,《天下父母心》就找來專業人士如兒童心理學家、社工、治療師等,傳授教養孩子的秘笈,每集都有真實個案。至於紀錄片《體育的風采》,今輯不再是運動競技,而是集中講香港中、小學的體育項目,原來游泳、球類、跑步之外,有學生甚至參加爬樹、拔河比賽,別開生面。最後不得不提的是,每集《窮富翁 III》和《天人合一》的內容將延長至 1 小時。陳表示:「港台節目以往多是半小時,新季度將某些星期六、日的節目延長,目的是深化內容和質感,《窮富翁 III》將首先嘗試,希望以後有更多 1 小時的節目。」﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏向前看 —— 節目試播  施永遠表示,港人觀看電視的習慣已經改變,透過很多不同方式、渠道,可不受時間、地域的限制收看港台的電視節目,「因此我們更注意流動平台的發展,如明年推出新的手機 app,專看港台電視節目。」  另外,港台數碼電視頻道雖定在 2018 年才啟播,但今年數碼地面電視廣播有進一步發展,「繼慈雲山、金山、青山、飛鵝山的發射站之外,南丫島、九龍坑山、聶哥信山的發射站,亦已進行傳送測試,可照顧 70% 觀眾。今年 12 月 30 日,我們將推出新的時間作頻道試播,播出時間更長之外,也有專為『港台電視』而設獨家、全新製作節目(不在 TVB 或 ATV 播映),此外,亦把經典節目如《獅子山下》、《小時候》等重新包裝作數碼廣播,可說真的有第 3 間電視台!」﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏港台新季度節目  ヾ 10 集《香港故事》發揮「人人為我,我為人人」的精神。(9 月 23 日起,逢星期一晚上 7 時,亞視本港台播映)  ゝ《星期六主場》用 80 後眼光看香港,代市民提出社會、政治、經濟等問題。(9 月 28 日起,逢星期六晚上 7 時,無�翡翠台播映)  ゞ《窮富翁大作戰 III》將會突破前兩輯�重體驗貧窮的範疇,要求參與者提出改善方案。(10 月 5 日起,逢星期六晚上 7 時 30 分,無�翡翠台播映)  々《天下父母心》各集主題包括:優質親子時間、服從、為孩子確立標準、學習專注力、手足關係、社交能力、物質與價值觀等。(9 月 24 日起,逢星期二晚上 7 時,亞視本港台播映)  ぁ《體育的風采》以紀錄片形式,記錄青少年在運動場上的成長路。涉獵題材包括:游泳、划艇、拔河、籃球、爬樹、板球、龍舟、跑步。(9 月 29 日起,逢星期日晚上 7 時,無�翡翠台播映)  あ文化雜誌式節目《好想藝術》(9 月 25 日起,逢星期三晚上 7 時,亞視本港台播映)  ぃ紀錄片《天人合一》將於 11 月播映。自存倉

Source: The Arizona Daily Star, TucsonSept.迷你倉 19--Arizona winemakers are celebrating the harvest with statewide fall festivals that kick off next weekend in Sedona. It's a chance to taste the fruits of the vine, meet winemakers and learn their secrets. It's also a chance to celebrate a growing force in Arizona's agri-tourism industry. "Arizona Wine is the best thing that has happened to Arizona in a long time in terms of an economic engine. It is one of the few industries that grew in the recession," said Sandy Moriarty, who founded the Sedona Wine Festival in 2009. "And the wines are really good."Sedona will celebrate its fifth annual festival Sept. 28-29. Over the third weekend in October, Willcox dots it historic downtown Railroad Park with wine-tasting tents for the fall installment of its twice yearly Willcox Wine Country Festival.And the granddaddy of all of Arizona's wine events, the Arizona Wine Growers Association's Festival at The Farm at South Mountain in Phoenix, will showcase top winemakers from around the state in mid-November.Here's a guide to help you make the most of the festivals.Fifth Annual Sedona Wine FestivalWhen: 11 a.m.-5 p.m. Sept. 28 and 29.Where: Beneath a 13,000-square-foot tent at Sedona Airport, 235 Air Terminal Drive, Sedona. Sedona is about four hours by car from Tucson.Cost: $20 in advance at sedonawinefest.com, $25 at the door. VIP premium tickets $40 in advance, $45 at the door if available.Details: sedonawinefest.comHistory: Started by Sandy Moriarty, a community activist and member of Sedona's interim city council after Sedona incorporated in the late 1980s.

Source: The Herald-Sun, Durham, N.迷你倉C.Sept. 19--DURHAM -- Harrington takes over from Williams at NorthwoodThe new basketball coach at Northwood, in Pittsboro, is following a guy with a pretty big name.Northwood athletics director Jason Amy has selected Brian Harrington to replace Donald Williams, the most outstanding player of the 1993 NCAA men's basketball tournament when North Carolina won the national championship.Williams, who guided the Chargers to a 17-11 run and the second round of the state playoffs in his lone season at Northwood, had been making a long commute to coach at the Chatham County school, Amy said.Amy said he and Williams agreed that it was best to let someone else coach the team."(He's) just a neat guy," Amy said about Williams.Harrington, the defensive coordinator for Northwood's football team, has coached basketball before at the school and is eager to get back on the bench, Amy said."He's hungry," Amy said.Reclassification has Northwood playing at the 3-A level this season. The Chargers are expected to return Ti Pinnix and Kadarus Rone, the starting quarterback and running back on the football team, respectively.Players such as Pinnix and Rone especially would benefit from having been around Harrington on the football field, Amy said.Harrington has 18 years of coaching experience at Northwood, some of that time with the track team, and he is a Northwood graduate who played football for N.C. A&T.Discipline and fundamentals will be Harrington's focus. He'll turn the Chargers into good basketball players and, more importantly, good citizens, Amy said.NINE FROM AREA NAMED TO STATE HIGH SCHOOL TOP 100As part of the celebration of its centennial, the N.C.

樓震惹恐慌,迷你倉住客心慌慌度中秋。土瓜灣馬頭圍道一幢距三年前塌樓慘劇現場僅約一百米唐樓,疑受相連一幢唐樓正進行拆卸工程的影響,居民昨晨感到大廈強烈震動如同地震,天台及部分單位牆壁更出現裂痕,恐防塌樓慘劇重演報警,警方及消防接報後,派出多輛救援車輛趕至,屋宇署人員亦急忙到場用儀器測試,初步認為大廈結構無危險,居民雖然毋須疏散,但要帶�恐慌過中秋,除興致大減外,更難以安寢。現場馬頭圍道二○四至二○六號一幢唐樓,上址樓高七層,八樓頂層為天台,樓齡約五十六年,現有三十多個單位,大廈去年才作全幢翻新。而貼近該大廈的馬頭圍道一九六至二○二號,原亦為一幢樓齡逾十年的七層高唐樓,有發展商早前將該大廈收購後,據悉擬興建酒店,工程承辦商前日遂開始動工,進行拆卸工程,施工期預計約兩個月。昨晨八時許,上址受影響唐樓的多名居民,感到樓宇出現搖晃,屋內晾掛衣物不停擺動,有住客形容如地震,恐樓宇有倒塌危險,大驚報警。因附近曾發生塌樓慘劇,警方立刻派員到場,消防處派出九輛消防車及兩部救護車趕至戒備,初步調查後,懷疑與拆樓地盤工程有關,遂要求工人暫時停止兩部大型鑿地機操作。迷你倉宇署記錄數據屋宇署人員到場調查後,為搜集數據,曾要求工人再啟動鑿地機,再利用儀器在受震唐樓五樓梯間進行測震,並記錄有關數據研究,最快下周有結果。現場所見,出現震動的唐樓天台,其中一幅緊貼地盤的牆壁,呈現長逾一米的裂痕,而居於五樓的劉先生,也發現其住所的橫樑,出現一條約三、四呎裂痕,相信亦與拆樓工程有關。另一名居於五樓一單位的梁小姐則稱,昨晨她在住所臥在地上正做瑜伽運動,突強烈搖動,感覺有如地震,更即時勾起其三年前回憶,附近唐樓塌樓慘劇的恐怖畫面。拆卸工程暫停止屋宇署人員調查後,初步相信唐樓的結構暫無危險,居民毋須疏散,拆卸工程已暫時停工,待確定地盤的施工程序並無欠妥或偏離經批准圖則的情況後,工程才可恢復。負責有關拆樓工程的工程公司,一名負責人余先生表示,該拆樓工程施工前經屋宇署批准,安全並無問題,「係有小小震動,疑住客心理過敏。」香港專業教育學院(屯門)建造工程系主任黃漢平表示,樓宇如屬兩幢獨立建築物,兩幢樓之間應有「伸縮縫」,地基也應是獨立;不過,舊樓因一般屬淺層地基,拆樓時用大型機器清拆,如出現的震盪大,有機會影響相連的建築物感震盪。儲存倉

近日有著名專欄作家批評時下流行曲歌詞水平欠佳,迷你倉引致部份填詞人不滿,因而開腔還擊。筆者因此聯想起關於有人反對香港機場建造第三條跑道之聲音,是否也是行外人在對行內人說三道四,為了單一考量(例如環保議題)而忽略了宏觀需要,把急需解決的問題一拖再拖,錯失了發展良機。因應區域的經濟發展需求,以及繼續鞏固香港國際機場的樞紐地位,應付不斷增加的吞吐量是急不容緩的工作,解決的方法不外乎透過增加飛機停泊位、改善空域擁擠問題、建造第三條跑道等方法,去增強機場的實際容量。空域擁擠短期難解決有人提出目前的雙跑道運作,在理論上可以應付每小時最多88架次的起降,所以無需急於為第三跑道動工。其實,本港已經錯失了建造的最佳時機,現在每拖一天,只會把目前的空港競爭優勢不斷的削弱,大家必須知道,雙跑道88架次的起降只是理論數字,如果把機場四周的地勢限制;空域擁擠的管理問題;以及要符合國際民航組織的儲存倉全及最少分隔距離規定都考量進去,在不犧牲起降安全系數的前提下,目前的雙跑道運作是很難突破每小時70架次起降的瓶頸,也就是說本港機場的容量即將飽和,到時就沒有能力去應付不斷增加的商業需求。航空公司經濟效益受限或許有人提出先要解決空域擁擠的問題,但客觀的事實是空域擁擠不是一朝一夕可以疏導的,而建造跑道需時,如果待空域問題解決後才取建造第三條跑道,那麼我們的空港發展將會一直滯後於鄰近區域的競爭對手,於是再一次的自貨櫃碼頭後,將原先的空港領先地位拱手相讓給鄰近區域城市。如果有朋友問現階段可否投資與本港航空業相關的股票,筆者會反問如果一家航空公司長年累月無法取得有商業價值的起降時刻,導致機隊和航空網絡無法擴張,而有利可圖的航點班次也無法增加,在這種處處受到局限的經營環境下,它所產生的經濟效益是否值得投資,則有待各位投資者自行判斷。陳杰(航空業從業員、香港入境團旅行社協會顧問)迷你倉

  上海自由貿易區的設立,迷你倉最平真的不會對香港構成影響?近日多位中央高官,包括中央政治局常委、全國政協主席俞正聲和國務院港澳辦主任王光亞等,似乎都對此定調,紛紛向香港派定心丸。  按照內地的逆向思維文化,實情恐怕並非如此。僅從上海自貿區還未掛牌,無論是中資銀行還是外資銀行,近日都摩拳擦掌,意圖爭取入主自貿區的首批入場券,並藉此強攻人民幣離岸業務,就知香港備受壓力了!本地薑辣 浦發行欲飲頭啖湯  上海浦東發展銀行前天召開董事會,表決通過關於設立「上海浦東發展銀行股份有限公司中國(上海)自由貿易試驗區分行」的議案,並於當晚發布公告,指稱報監管部門批准後實施。  據熟悉情況人士表示,浦發銀行將外高橋、南�和空港3家支行,升格為一級分行,以把握自貿區帶來的機遇,並體現其作為上海本地法人銀行的領跑趨勢。  除浦發行外,大型國有商業銀行對上海自貿區亦虎視眈眈。據悉,中國銀行已向上海銀監局提交申請,希望在自貿區內設立分行。上海銀監局在初審之後,將上報中國銀監會。此外,建設銀行等大行也有意在上海自貿區內設立分行。  中行如此一馬當先,急於表態,主要是該銀行現有的離岸金融業務基礎和優勢,對其未來進行自貿區相關金融服務至關重要。上海自貿區金融創新主要方向,中央高層已鎖定在離岸金融領域,爭取自貿區成為全球人民幣的創新、交易、定價和清算中心。推金融創新 外資銀行具經驗  既然上海自貿區在金融創新方面,主攻方向是離岸人民幣業務,外資行豈能不蠢蠢迷你倉動。  上海方面近日曾對當地外資銀行進行非正式調查,上海自貿區掛牌在即,盡管相關細則方案還未公布,但不少外資銀行已經開始積極準備,摩拳擦掌欲搶得首批入場券。正如�豐銀行接受調查時表示,計劃中的上海自貿試驗區將有助於進一步推動中國內地的金融改革,�豐對此表示歡迎,並有興趣參與上海自貿區的發展。滬人幣在岸離岸齊攻 港受壓  鑑於上海自貿區在金融業務發展方面,定位為金融創新,這對外資銀行尤其具吸引力。知情人士指出,金融創新必定由個別金融產品做起,而在自貿區取得經驗後,試點成功最終可複製到全中國,而外資銀行在金融創新,尤其涉及資本項目開放的離岸人民幣金融產品,則具較大優勢,原因是銀行不可能憑空設計一個金融產品,肯定是國際上或者是發達經濟體當中比較流行,並行之有效,而且是比較容易監管的產品,而外資銀行掌握相關經驗。  中央加強挺港政策,這是毋庸置疑的,但市場是現實的,既然離岸金融業務是上海自貿區的重要組成部分,而在人民幣在岸業務方面,上海向來都是全國一哥,銀行考慮到上海作為國際金融中心的發展前景,尤其是人民幣在岸和離岸業務一手抓,投放資源自然有所增加。盡管因為上海自貿區的加入,離岸人民幣業務這個餅必定做大,但香港業務流失不可避免。  按照全國人大常委會通過相關文件,涉及上海自貿區的法規將於10月1日起陸續生效,意味�自貿區最快可於下月初掛牌,上海自貿區的威脅迫在眉睫,香港準備好應對嗎?  有意見可電郵yumu@hket.com儲存

昨天晚上“月圓中秋,儲存濃情西城”群�游園賞月活動在月壇公園舉行。晨報記者 王穎/攝 晨報訊(首席記者 崔紅 通訊員 張海濤)盛裝的“皇帝”三叩九拜,“皇家祭月大典”中秋夜在月壇舉行。在兔爺送出的“福”字中,百姓們享受著天涯共此時的團聚情懷。月壇歷史上為明清兩代皇帝祭月之所。西城區昨天在此舉行祭月大典和百姓賞月活動。舞獅、昆曲、猜燈謎……千余市民昨天齊聚月壇歡慶中秋。久違了的兔爺重出江湖,嚇得孩子直問奶奶:“這是什麼呀?”“兔爺!拜月!”老太太脆生生回答,然後自語道:“好家伙,夠年頭不見這場景了。”來自西城區文委的專家告訴記者,兔兒爺是老北京的吉祥物。在民間百姓有“男不祭月,女不祭灶”的俗約,因此祭月多由婦女承擔,跟在母親身邊的孩童就會模仿大人的行為,久而久之,就有了專供兒童祭月的造像——兔兒爺。晚上8時,隆重的皇家祭月大典舉行,場面堪稱震撼。讀祝官大聲宣讀祝文“福我兆民”,借此祈求平安祥和。近些年,西城區在月壇恢複了帝王拜月和民間祭月習俗。■中秋·親情大牆內親人團聚晨報訊(記者 顏斐)日前,24名家屬走進北京市第三看守所分所的“希望家園”,與服刑的親人共度中秋節。7個家庭分別圍坐在一起分食月餅、吃親情餐,互相送上祝福的話語,濃濃的親情流淌在大牆內。據介紹,三看分所關押的都是余刑在一年以內的輕刑犯,9大隊又被稱為希望家園,也被稱為所管人員回歸社會的“緩衝帶”。希望家園的所管人員都是由矯治效果良好、改好意願強烈的臨近釋放人員組成。截至目前,這裡走出的300多名所管人員出獄後無一重新犯罪。■中秋·文化博物館里過中秋晨報訊(記者 王歧豐)吃月餅、看展覽、聽民俗講座。這個中秋節,本市博物館為市民準備了豐富的文化活動。據市文物局介紹,中秋節前後,北京石刻藝術博物館、北京文博交流館、北京民俗博物館等地,都將舉辦中秋主題的民俗展覽展示、親子互動、電影放映等活動。據市文物局介紹,中秋節期間,北京石刻藝術博物館推出了“氣貫日月,萬古凜然”——《正氣歌》法帖展。北京文博交流館舉辦了第四屆智化寺音樂文化節。■中秋·旅遊各大景區旅遊舒適晨報訊(記者 吳婷婷)小長假首日,涼爽的天氣,並不擁擠的人群,給遊客們的出行帶來清爽和舒適。市旅遊委統計信息顯示,昨天,全市重點監測的26個景區共計接迷你倉遊客約45萬人次,豐台園博園的開放為北京旅遊帶來新的增長點。昨天,市旅遊局繼續發佈京城各大景區舒適度指數,總體上看,小長假第一天全市大部分景區都屬於“舒適”或者“較為舒適”級別。不過頤和園、恭王府、什剎海、北海公園的遊客人數依然比較多,舒適度指數僅為“一般”。■中秋·交通網絡售票運行平穩晨報訊(記者 吳婷婷 陳琳 ) 昨天是中秋小長假首日,三大火車站當日火車票均于前一日售罄。記者從北京鐵路局獲悉,昨天旅客客流主要集中在哈爾濱、長春、西安、蘭州等方向,以及管內北戴河、唐山、衡水、石家莊等地區,為方便廣大旅客出行,北京地區加開了臨客12列。目前12306網絡售票系統運行平穩,旅客通過正常購票流程即可購買到車票;鐵路電話訂票和.12306.cn網絡購票的預售期為20天,車站窗口、代售點和自動售票機的預售期為18天,請旅客提前做好行程安排。昨天,首都機場用“中國結”造型為往來旅客送上節日祝福。預計今年“中秋”小長假期間,首都機場預計進出港旅客量約為66.4萬人次,日均22.2萬人次,預計航班架次約為4806架次,日均1602架次。■中秋·科普今年中秋月最圓 錯過要再等8年新華社天津9月19日電(記者周潤健)繼前年、去年“十五的月亮十五圓”之後,今年的“中秋月”依然是“十五圓”。天文專家表示,在往後的幾年中,中秋最圓月都不會出現在農曆八月十五了,下次滿月中秋節要到2021年。“月亮圓缺變化一周為一個‘朔望月’,周期是29.5天,這個周期中月亮最圓的那天稱‘望日’,也叫‘滿月’。”我國天文教育專家趙之珩介紹說,只有當月亮與太陽的經度相差180度時,從地球上看,月亮與太陽處在正好相對位置的時刻,才能看到圓月。但是,月亮圍繞地球運行的軌道是一個橢圓,時近時遠,根據萬有引力定律,近時走得快一些,遠時走得慢一些。“由於月亮轉動的‘步伐’有快有慢,因此每個月的‘望日’時間也有差異,農曆十四、十五、十六或十七都有可能,其中,以農曆十五、十六居多,而兩者中又以農曆十六為最多。”趙之珩說,月亮是不是最圓,這對公�賞月並沒有太大影響。農曆十五和十六,人們都可以欣賞到明亮的中秋月,如果人們用肉眼細觀月亮,可以看到月亮表面有些地方較明亮,有些地方較暗淡。這明暗交錯的圖案,給人以豐富的想象空間。mini storage

Source: The Times, Munster, Ind.儲存Sept. 19--INDIANAPOLIS -- A group of congressional Republicans, led in part by U.S. Rep. Todd Rokita, R-Indianapolis, proposed an alternative to the Affordable Care Act Wednesday that goes beyond just repealing Obamacare.The American Health Care Reform Act would change how most Americans obtain health insurance by discouraging employer-subsidized coverage and instead providing a federal income and payroll tax deduction totaling $7,500 for individuals and $20,000 for families that could be used to buy insurance on the open market -- or for any other purpose."We haven't been allowed as consumers to apply the skill-set we innately have as Americans. This bill does that," said Rokita, a Munster native. "It kick-starts what we hope to be a cascading, or domino, effect in price transparency."Unlike the Affordable Care Act, which requires all health plans provide a minimum level of coverage for pregnancy, preventative care and other common health issues, Rokita's proposal lets health insurance companies decide what their policies should cover and permits Americans to buy insurance across state lines.The GOP measure also fully repeals the Affordable Care Act, which means insurance companies again would be permitted to deny coverage to individuals with pre-existing conditions, could kick college students off their parents' policies and mask their prices, likely making it more difficult for consumers to compare polici迷你倉s.Under the plan, Medicare price data would be made public, but expanded Medicaid coverage for low-income and elderly Americans as well as the requirement that all Americans buy health insurance would be scrapped.In their place, the federal government would provide states $2.5 billion a year to fund high-risk insurance pools to help citizens with pre-existing conditions buy insurance, most medical error lawsuit payments would be capped and practically all insurance coverage for abortion prohibited."(This) is a market-based, commonsense alternative to Obamacare," said U.S. Rep. Phil Roe, R-Tenn. "Our bill will not increase taxes, does not rely on mandates, expands coverage and lowers costs."Republicans unsuccessfully offered similar proposals during 2009-10 Congressional debates over the Affordable Care Act. A cost estimate of this measure was not provided.The new plan -- crafted by the Republican Study Committee -- gives the GOP, at the least, something to say they support as the House Republican majority approaches its 50th certain-to-fail vote to repeal Obamacare.But the proposal will not become law any time soon. The Senate and White House are both controlled by Democrats, and they are looking forward to the Oct. 1 start date for the main health coverage provisions of the Affordable Care Act.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 The Times (Munster, Ind.)
