The Atlanta Journal-Constitution Shawn McIntosh column
Source: The Atlanta Journal-ConstitutionSept.文件倉 21--Even our congressmen are confused by Obamacare.As reporter Daniel Malloy wrote on Wednesday, most of Georgia's members of Congress -- and the rest of the U.S. House and Senate -- will have to find their health coverage on the new insurance exchange created by the Affordable Care Act. The question is whether the government should continue to subsidize their insurance, and you can imagine where Americans come down on that. Even if you set that squabble aside, however, the rules for Congress members and their staffs still aren't clear.Given that, it's probably not surprising that the average Georgia citizen is having some trouble navigating the new law. In a new poll commissioned by the newspaper, nearly two-thirds of Georgians say they don't have a good understanding of the law.That's a problem, since up to 20 percent of Georgians are immediately affected, facing decisions about the insurance exchanges that open Oct. 1. Those exchanges are for people who are not covered by their employer or other private insurance. (The law envisioned those below the poverty level being covered by Medicaid, but Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal decided not to expand Medicaid, citing the expense. That leaves those below the poverty level without an automatic insurance option.)The state of Georgia, whose leaders opted not to set up an exchange, is also not helping much with information. Where other states are holding insurance fairs and have websites loaded with information, our state is actively working to thwart the law.Here at the AJC, we've decided to step up our leadership in order to help resolve the information gap. Whether you support the law or oppose it, the notion that people need information about their options seems fairly obvious. And we aim to give that information.This week we're launching MyAJC.com/healthcare -- a special area of our subscriber website that will provide ongoing, in-depth coverage about the implementation of Obamacare. Our research shows that this topic has huge interest among our subscribers, and that's unlikely to change any time soon.The launch coincides with the release of the poll we commissioned with the opinion research firm SRBI and includes a special report on how Obamacare affects businesses, individuals, health providers, the uninsured and young people.We will continue building the site and adding in-depth information as the存倉Affordable Care Act is implemented or changed. The site offers several interactive features that help you understand the law, including a calculator that estimates your costs on the exchange and a questions link, so you can ask us about how the law will affect you.MyAJC.com/healthcare also includes the most significant reporting we've published during the past year on Obamacare, including articles on the extraordinary political battles that have attended this law.And you'll find special features not directly connected to the law but directly related to your health: hospital infection rates in metro Atlanta, hospital-by-hospital charges for a variety of procedures and more.Richard Halicks, one of our investigations editors who oversees health care investigations, is heading up the site and tailoring it to specific reader needs."Independent information that is specific to Georgia can be hard to come by," Halicks said. "We're making MyAJC.com/healthcare the go-to place in the state for information people can depend on."Halicks noted that even though it's a national story, the ramifications are extremely local. "This major national story, of course, has created thousands of personal stories in Georgia, and we're also tapping into those narratives to show how broadly and deeply the law affects Georgians."Key players in keeping the site up to date will be Misty Williams, our health care reporter, Carrie Teegardin, an investigative reporter who focuses on health care, and David Markiewicz, who covers the business aspects of health care, including issues facing employers and institutions such as hospitals and insurers.Here's what Teegardin, a veteran reporter, has to say: "Reporting on health care offers everything: important public policy, a host of investigative subjects, consumer issues that matter to every single person in our nation. And these days, it's one of the biggest stories of our time. It's an honor to have this assignment and it's a challenge every single day."I agree with Carrie. It's an honor and a challenge to bring you this important coverage. Please let us know what questions you have, what stories you think we are missing and how best we can serve your information needs in this important area.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 The Atlanta Journal-Constitution (Atlanta, Ga.)

EDITORIAL: DeLay case had delays
Source: The Beaumont Enterprise, TexasSept.迷你倉 21--Supporters of former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay believe that this week's 2-1 ruling by an appeals court that reversed his conviction proves his case was politically motivated. Opponents cite it as another unfortunate example of getting violators convicted under this state's weak laws on campaign finance.While both sides debate these points, ordinary Texans may be left with another impression: This case took a long time.DeLay was indicted way back in 2005 for allegedly channeling $190,000 in illegal corporate donations to Republica文件倉s running for the Texas Legislature. That was the first year of President George W. Bush's second term, and the first year in the Senate for his successor, Barack Obama.DeLay's case didn't go to trial until 2011, and that conviction took two years to reach the Third Court of Appeals -- which wasn't the last step in the process.Whether or not justice was denied in DeLay's case, it sure was delayed.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 the Beaumont Enterprise (Beaumont, Texas) Visit the Beaumont Enterprise (Beaumont, Texas) at .beaumontenterprise.com Distributed by MCT Information Services存倉

Cardinals stay in command of Generals
Source: The Porterville Recorder, Calif.迷你倉Sept. 21--LINDSAY ?-- The Lindsay High football team's strong second half proved to be too much for the visiting Shafter Generals at Frank Skadan Stadium in Lindsay Friday night. Led by Alex Jara and Jacob Hernandez, the Cardinals were victorious, 40-20.With Lindsay playing the majority of the first quarter on its heels, the Cardinals managed to cross the 50-yard line once. Shafter opened the game kicking to Lindsay. The errant kick sailed out of bounds and Lindsay started its opening drive at its 35.The snap from center flew over the hands of Jara where he recovered the ball on his 16. The Cardinals managed to move the ball to the 21 before having to punt. Lindsay downed the punt at its own 42 where Shafter began its first drive. The Cardinal defense pushed the Generals back to the Lindsay 48 and forced a punt.Lindsay's Gaven Mann fielded the punt at the 11 where the Cardinals started their second drive of the game. Lindsay managed a first down, but a sack and a penalty forced the Cardinals to face second and 20. Jara's pass down field was picked off by Shafter at the Cardinal 48.Shafter quarterback Toribio Lucas managed a couple of runs to get to the 18. However, the Cardinal defense stepped up and stopped the General offense. Shafter's 34 yard field goal attempt was wide and the Cardinals took over.Jara took the snap and quickly found Jacob Hernandez with a short pass. Hernandez did the rest as he found a crease and broke across the 50. Still running, Hernandez outpaced the Generals and found the end zone for the game's first TD. With the PAT good the score was 7-0, Lindsay.Shafter started its next drive with 2:22 left in the first quarter and ended it four seconds into the second quarter. Starting at their 20 after a touchback, the Generals marched down the field 80 yards. Gabriel Cabezuela capped the drive with a 1-yard TD rush up the middle. The PAT tied the score at 7.Lindsay started to win the battle of field position during the second quarter. Hernandez had a beautiful 46-yard run. Juking one defender and slipping out of the grasp of another, Hernandez was finally pushed out of bounds at the 12.The penalties however, stacked up against the Cards and forced Lindsay to turn the ball over on downs. Creeping toward the endz one with each possession, the Cardinals, managed two fi自存倉ld goals in the second quarter. Jose Lopez hit from 33 yards and 39 yards to give Lindsay a 13-7 lead at the half.Shafter's opening drive in the second half was met by a wall of Lindsay defenders led by Marcos Munoz. Munoz stepped up big with two huge stops and forced Shafter to punt.Lindsay's offense shortened the field with a 49-yard pass to Angel Cortes. Lindsay finished the drive with a 19-yard TD pass to Israel Uribe. The PAT made the score 20-7, Lindsay.Shafter threatened to score after a 27-yard pass to Nick Alexander got them to the 12.Chris Misaalefua charged hard and sacked Shafter's Lucas, causing a fumble, which was recovered by Lindsay. However, Lindsay had to punt and the Generals came hard at the punter and blocked it. From the 7, Cabezuela scored for Shafter to make the score 20-13.On the ensuing kick off, Hernandez returned the ball 50 yards. The next play, Hernandez took the hand-off up the middle and exploded for 40 yards for another Lindsay TD. The Lindsay PAT was blocked and left the score 26-13 Lindsay.When Lindsay kicked to Shafter, Shafter failed to cover the ball and the Cardinals took possession at Shafter's 15. Wasting no time, Jara handed the ball to Hernandez. Virtually untouched, Hernandez ran straight up the middle and across the goal line. Lindsay now had a 33-13 lead after the made PAT.Shafter's drive to start the fourt quarter looked to gain momentum as it threatened again to score. But, another big hit caused another fumble with Misaalefua recovering for Lindsay at its 16. Lindsay was forced to punt as they only managed six yards. This put Shafter back on its 30.While the Generals were able to gain yards offensively, they were plagued with penalties. Facing fourth down and 30, they passed and failed, giving the ball back to the Cardinals. R.J. Rueda now at quarterback for Lindsay, found Isaac Flores in the end zone for a 21-yard pass to the corner. The TD and PAT made the score 40-13 with just under four minutes left in the game.Shafter answered with a 48-yard TD pass to bring the score to 40-20, Lindsay with 2:27 on the clock.The win over Shafter brings Lindsay's record to 3-0 and Shafter to 2-2.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 The Porterville Recorder (Porterville, Calif.)

湯禎兆:請專業一點
湯禎兆有新書面世,迷你倉出版社找傳媒約訪問,編輯遂委約我當訪問者。出版社送來的書也先讀過了,訪問卻比我預期更困難得多。甚至去到一個地步, 我差點要投降的跟他說,其實毋須為新書宣傳做這個訪問,要做也應該另找「合格」的訪問者。 湯禎兆有「全身文化人」這個身分,他問了我好幾次知不知: 「不知你知不知道,我教書前是做了十年傳媒的,副刊、體育版的編輯,甚至像找你來訪問我的編輯H,類似的位置我也坐過。」「不知你知不知道,我是讀文學的,你也是讀文學的嗎?」「不知你熟不熟悉華文世界的出版市場?」我搖搖頭,並不是我不知道,只是我覺得尷尬。湯sir 有這樣的口吻,大概是質疑訪問者不夠專業。 「讀者不專業專業作者難生存」 湯批評目前在香港這個「場」玩的人不專業,無誠意,而且作為傳媒的把關人也不專業,容許不專業的人落場。訪問到最後,我問他對新特首上場後香港的看法,要他表態說說他討厭討論的香港政治,他說: 「一句到尾,請專業一點(唔該專業�)。」一句話重複說了兩次,第二次是一字一字的吐出來。「讀者不夠專業,專業的作者很難生存。」他提到林慧思老師,認為很多評論事件的人都是信口開河,講之前沒有認真研究。「沒研究就沒有發言權。」他說。「那麼湯禎兆又有什麼看法?」他表示無話可說,並反詰:「我可站在什麼位置去說?」 我之所以跟湯說訪問的安排恐怕是一場誤會,是因為他對傳媒和訪問者有相當的要求。雖然我事前跟編輯提過,如果我做訪問的話, 「很可能會談得很離題,例如問問他為何《進擊的巨人》和《半澤直樹》會爆紅。」湯卻說,出版社告訴他,公園仔很熟悉日本文化。我查了電郵紀錄,《明報》給出版社的信息是:(訪問者)是博客公園仔,本身也多寫日本流行文化。 湯禎兆稱曾在facebook 表明(雖然我不清楚facebook 是不是一個表明立場的好地方),他不會再接受香港傳媒的電話訪問。《半澤直樹》和《進擊的巨人》爆紅、宮崎駿引退,他都收過傳媒致電來問意見,他一概不回應。我照樣問: 「有看《半澤直樹》嗎?」「有看了一點,但我其實覺得『好流』。」但他沒有給其他記者「好流」這個sound bite,因為「不想講,(問的人)無誠意。」 論《半澤直樹》:我覺得「好流」怎樣才叫有誠意?現時大部分文章都在內地媒體發表的湯說: 「大陸有五份雜誌找我講宮崎駿。他們的做法是: 『湯生,可否用三千字也好,六千字也好,談談你的看法』。我比較忙,只應承了兩份,合共寫了一萬字左右。其實白癡都會知道,怎可能隨便說兩句就能說得清楚。」我心�再次質疑這次訪問的意義,特別是湯說出了他對訪問者的要求: 「我會期望訪問者對我有多大興趣?對日本文化為多大興趣?」至於要有多大興趣才叫「合格」,湯沒有具體回答。 《人間開眼》為讀者開眼 本篇訪問也不過只有兩千多字的篇幅,唯有盡我所能,談談湯禎兆的新書吧。湯說他不想他的文章再流於港日又或者中日(針對內地簡體版讀者)的直接對比,他認為這是「妹仔大過主人婆」的做法,因為寫作的出發點並非是日本文化本身,而只不過是挪借日本來解釋香港或內地的現象。我讀了一段新書的宣傳文案給他聽:「……全面剖析下流日本/讓日本的魅影/折射出香港的鬼影……」這並非湯的原意吧?他點點頭說: 「當然不是。」然而對於新書的處理,他有妥協,亦有他堅持的底線。例如他不肯接受攝影師要求他拿�自己的書來作閱讀狀。「自己讀自己的書,太奇怪了。」不過他會接受攝影師建議,借了文件倉筆記簿來作書寫狀。又例如湯會接受出版社將「下流」、「援交」、「宅男」這類吸睛字眼用於文章的題目,卻堅持文章內容不改,而且力爭以《人間開眼》作為書名。為什麼一定要用這四個字? 「因為我覺得勁囉!」怎勁? 「人間」不只是中文,也是《人間失格》、《人間之證明》中的同一個日文辭彙。湯禎兆要為人開眼,為「對日本文化有要求」的讀者提供嶄新的眼界。 借舒明在推薦序提供的數字,新書談論過的小說作者超過五十人,提及過的導演亦有數十名。不夠專業的我問: 「自問看過的日本作品也不算少,但你提過的小說和電影,我恐怕是沒有可能所有都看過,我是應該先看作品,才讀你的評論?」結果被湯sir 教訓了: 「先讀書或是看過作品才讀,是不緊要的,緊要的是你是不是個合格的讀者。」怎樣才不算是一個失格的讀者,湯的說法是要對日本文化有要求,要求的東西不止上維基就能找到,要比打來問sound bite 的記者要求高一點就可以了。 「如果你只在追求一些強化自己固有想法的東西,而且不覺得市面上報章提供的資訊不足且流於表面,你是毋須買我的書的。」未看過有關作品就先讀討論文字,當然是可行的。我們後來談及到湯很欣賞的李長聲,還有他不太欣賞的四方田犬彥,兩人論及的日本作品我也有很多是沒看過,但書讀起來還是不失興味。 不過湯sir 強調,他不是推銷員。如果讀者沒有能力看得明白他的日本書寫,他們是無必要買書來看。湯主動提到讀者的閱讀能力,可能是因為我問了他,有多高日本文化根底才適合讀他的書。關於這一點,他倒是自信滿滿,認為確實有一班為數不多但很穩定的讀者群: 「我不同意香港讀者要求低,只會買那些指南式、只求功能的日本文化書,我十年來書寫日本,書一本接一本的出,稱得上是右手寫完,左手便可以拿去出版。」談到文字有價,湯在訪問中突然叉開一筆,批評社交網絡上的「呃like」現象: 「like 的數量跟實質支持的人數可能沒有太大的關係,例如你現在翻譯一篇關於《半澤直樹》的文章,可能馬上有數千個like,但這些人可能不會花錢去買這樣的一本書來看。」 討厭香港論述風氣非黑即白 湯禎兆討厭香港現時非黑即白的論述風氣,就算寫《狂舞派》,他也在意自己沒有一味讚好,也沒有人云亦云的只論及電影有多熱血,而是拿了阿里山的姑娘蛻變成動漫寶寶這一段來深入分析。「我讀lit(文學)的,lit 就是做分析」。他說《半澤直樹》「好流」,是少見的立場鮮明,但當我提到�雅人的演技很浮誇,他還是要給另一個角度來分衡觀點: 「也不止他在劇中的演技浮誇,但這也可以說成是一種漫畫風格的演繹手法。」湯說他愈來愈不在乎一部作品整體的好壞,例如寫(神探伽利略的)《真夏方程式》,他會寫一篇深入討論它的好處,然後再寫一篇談它的壞處。「只評好壞不過是社交網絡上的like/unlike,更重要是提供角度。」 湯禎兆說,新書是一個新階段的開始,有別於以往以某些日本事物作為寫作重心,期望今後更以作者本身的視角,只寫他認為值得寫的東西。我本來打算問問湯有沒有看過宮藤官九郎的《還有第11 人》,問問他怎樣看洪尚秀,但既然他說到有一段長時間不寫日劇,又認為韓國片太過淺薄,我就作罷。 什麼人問: 公園仔 業餘博客,閒時愛看日劇和日本電影,近期在看宮藤官九郎的NHK 晨早劇《海女》。 什麼人答: 湯禎兆 全身文化人,據新書《人間開眼》的宣傳介紹,是日本文化專家。 什麼人訪問什麼人文公園仔圖黃志東存倉

死亡公路牽魂事件(一)
世界各地都有死亡公路,迷你倉如永加斯北路,又稱為死亡道路,這條道路從拉巴斯到玻利維亞首都科羅伊科,長約61至69公里,1995年曾被命名為「世界上最危險的道路」,每年有200至300遊客死於該公路沿線。香港早年的屯門公路,過去亦經常發生嚴重傷亡的交通事故。?筆者年前帶領無線電視台最受歡迎靈異節目《詭異檔案》攝製隊,聯同當地記者在怡保拍攝,期間忽然接獲一名粉絲來電提供一則熱辣勁聞,指稱檳島阿依淡新市鎮有一批年輕人,發起一場相當大規模的夜祭奪命公路陰魂的超渡法事,筆者與攝製隊經過商議後,連夜從怡保北上檳島一探究竟……據當地粉絲表示,發起這場法事的是阿依淡新市鎮濟寶宮的一批年輕乩童以及道教教友們,據濟寶宮主持張國軒道長表示,該宮的侯府王儲存倉不久前曾降乩下旨,指該宮不遠的一條公路多年來不斷發生過多宗車禍意外,奪走數條人命,這條公路凝聚了枉死冤魂而陰氣相當重,若不儘早超渡讓這些公路冤魂早日安息,恐怕日後還會繼續發生車禍而肇成更多悲劇。侯府王爺降乩時已有指示,頒旨予其公子侯府太子,廣澤尊王以及大爺伯,一同到該公路牽渡亡魂,將這些公路亡魂渡往極樂……筆者與攝製隊忽然到訪,濟寶宮主持張國軒道長與該宮眾理事成員們又驚又喜,張道長亦隨即邀請我為這場夜祭公路亡魂的法事作護法及提供臨場協助。張道長指出,除侯府太子、廣澤尊王以及大爺伯降乩牽魂,他本身亦會在路旁設壇以道教方式頌經普渡曾經在該公路罹難的亡魂,平息這些亡魂的冤氣……(待續)司徒法正kingofmaster3@163.com迷你倉

便通肺亦強 飲食有度是良方
飲食保養1.天然食材 選當季 忌生冷中國醫藥大學附設北港醫院中醫師許麗娟指出,儲存秋季在人體中的五臟內應於肺,因此養生基本原則為防涼防燥,飲食保健當以養陰、潤燥為主。許麗娟表示,秋季天氣轉涼,人的味覺會更敏感,食欲增加,不知不覺中容易飲食過度,不小心就熱量攝取過多。而且氣候宜人,使人睡眠充足,汗水減少,稍不注意體重就增加,所以體重肥胖者應注意飲食,也因秋燥會導致大腸蠕動變慢,易形成季節性便秘。在飲食保健上,許麗娟建議民眾可從當季蔬菜或水果著手,例如白蘿蔔、蜂蜜、香蕉、柿子等,飯前也可以先喝雞湯或魚湯暖胃,不宜多吃寒涼食物或生冷瓜果,可能導致腹瀉、下痢等急慢性腸胃道疾病,辛辣、油炸等食物建議少碰,最好不要吃,因為易生燥化熱。2.中藥飲 增免疫 禦風寒「喝溫開水是最經濟實惠的保健。」恆順堂中藥行業者賴坤隆表示,秋季空氣乾燥,喉嚨需要水滋潤,冰冷飲品會讓喉嚨和胃緊縮,長期下來對呼吸道和消化道有害,而且會引起乾咳。飲補最常見由紅棗、枸杞和黃耆搭配而成的安迪湯,有助於提升免疫力,金銀花、甘草和靈芝有助於增加抵抗力,降低得到風寒機率;賴坤隆說,秋冬因氣溫低,血液循環較不好,人易有手腳冰冷的情形,可以在中藥材內加些許促進血液循環的紅花,但是孕婦和經期來的婦女禁用。賴坤隆建議經期女性可以改喝桂圓紅棗茶,因為紅棗富有鐵質和熱量高,同樣可以補血;潤肺的羅漢果搭配金銀花、甘草搭配而成的羅漢茶也可以潤喉。喉嚨感到不適,可以用雪梨燉川貝,或是燕窩加粉光參,一天一盞即可。運動保養1.建議的運動量許麗娟建議民眾持續適宜的體能鍛鍊,可以調養迷你倉氣,提高肺臟器官的功能,由於秋季氣候乾燥,人體陽氣陰精正處於收斂內養階段,因此運動應適量不宜過大,以防出汗過多,例如太極拳極適合,或是腹式深呼吸、吐納健身法。2.建議從事的運動腹式深呼吸:舌頂上顎,用鼻緩緩吸氣,用意念送至丹田,再將氣緩緩從口中呼吸,反覆30次。吐納健身法:清晨洗漱後,在室內寧心靜坐,先叩齒36次(增強腎氣以納氣),再用舌於口中攪動,待口水液滿,分三次吞下,用意念送到丹田(生津潤燥)。便通肺亦強:民眾想要刺激大腸蠕動,可以有規律地按壓眼眶正下方或顴骨四周,食、中、無名指併攏,以指腹輕敲,許麗娟說「便通則肺亦強,精神狀態也會明顯改善」。▇ 生活上的提醒1.暑熱未盡,涼風時至,早晚溫差大,早上出門最好多帶件薄外套,避免風寒。2.高血壓、腦動脈硬化等病患更要注意保暖,因血管在熱脹冷縮下易引發中風。3.若出汗較多,可適量補充些淡鹽水,補充時以少量、多次、緩飲為原則。4.用中藥材補身固然好,仍建議民眾在食補或飲補前,先請教中醫師,因為每個人的體質不同,藥材的調配因人而異。諮詢中國醫藥大學附設北港醫院中醫師許麗娟、恆順堂中藥行業者賴坤隆 整理記者姜宜菁按摩保養承漿穴:唇下凹處以食指適力壓揉,每次15下,感覺口腔內會湧出分泌液即可。合谷穴:五指併攏,在大拇指和食指掌骨之間,也就是肌肉隆起處。主治感冒、氣虛。曲池穴:屈肘,肘關節肌肉外側盡端。有助調理腸胃、調和氣血,並有降血壓作用。足三里:屈膝,由膝蓋外側往下四指,脛骨外開一橫指處有助於調理脾胃、提高自身抗病能力。魚際穴:大拇指外側中部,能治咳嗽、退熱。mini storage

新加坡
Some agree better control is needed but others fear govt will exploit new rulesTHE reflex response to China's ongoing crackdown on "online rumours" is that it is aimed at repressing free speech and silencing critics of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) or the government.迷你倉But take a closer look at China's cyberspace, especially since 2009 with the advent of the massively popular Twitter-like Weibo microblogs, and one may find reasonable grounds for some form of cleaning up that might benefit netizens over the long term.For one thing, Internet-based rumour-mongering in China can truly get out of hand.A joint portal launched on Aug 1 by six Internet firms has posted 100,000 statements of online rumours and falsehoods. Some rumours, like how foreigners involved in a train crash were getting 200 times more in government-funded compensation than locals, have fanned public anger.The latest involves a 16-year-old student in north-western Gansu province, who alleged online that local police in Zhangjiachuan county assaulted relatives of a man who had committed suicide.The student has been detained, according to news reports on Thursday, making him the first offender caught under a new rule released last Monday that expands existing law to punish perpetrators of online rumours.Those behind online rumours visited by 5,000 Internet users or re-posted more than 500 times will be charged with defamation and could face up to three years in jail.There has also been a proliferation of Internet marketing firms that allegedly make up lies and conduct smear campaigns against their clients' rivals.The highest-profile of these firms is one reportedly run by a man named Qin Zhihui, who goes by the online moniker Qin Huohuo and was nabbed by police in Beijing last month.Through the firm Beijing Erma, he and founder Yang Xiuyu allegedly concocted 3,000 rumours over three years about public figures and institutions to advance their interests and those of their clients. The firm earned more than 10 million yuan (S$2 million) in the past seven years, said state media."On Weibo, China appears as if it's an evil country. It's seriously affecting China's social stability and political governance," former newspaper editor Wang Wen,迷你倉最平now a researcher urging tightened controls on microblogs, told The New York Times on Tuesday last week.Such abuses of the Internet were cited by China's supreme court and prosecutor's office as key reasons for the judicial interpretation.Some cleaning up may not be a bad thing, some influential microbloggers have acknowledged to The Straits Times. They include romance counsellor Su Qin, who has more than 40 million fans on her Sina and Tencent Weibo accounts."Many microbloggers tend to re-tweet unverified information to attract new fans and increase their popularity," she said, adding that such actions could hurt stability in the society.But many fear that the authorities will exploit the new rules to protect corrupt officials, silence valid criticism of government policies or cover up their mistakes.The CCP's track record in suppressing critics and deleting sensitive online postings about corrupt officials and topics such as human rights adds to the perception.University of Chicago analyst Yang Dali believes the clampdown reflects the CCP's fears that it has ceded too much room to non-party and non-state forces. "The fear is compounded by an accelerating decline in viewership of official channels, especially TV. This current crackdown is also an attempt to take back control over cyberspace," he said.Other analysts, however, believe there is a need to better control cyberspace, though they also point out the need for a balance in the authorities' efforts.Fudan University international relations expert Shen Yi, writing in the Global Times newspaper this month, said the long-term strategy should not be using the law to deter bad behaviour but self-regulation among the netizens and Internet firms.But University of Sydney analyst Kerry Brown thinks the authorities have no clear way of dealing with the need to harness the "immense economic benefits" of the Internet on the one hand, and the threats posed to the CCP by the unbridled freedom of expression in cyberspace on the other hand."This will be a long attritional struggle but, in the end, it will result in a more open Chinese society. But it will be a tough path and I'm sure it will contain many surprises," he told The Straits Times.kianbeng@sph.com.sg迷你倉

據新華社鄭州9月19日電(記者付昊蘇姜亮)近日,迷你倉河南商丘市柘城縣第二高級中學發生了一起學生打砸事件,學校及縣教體局相關負責人已分別受到處理。記者採訪瞭解到,打砸的起因是學生與食堂工作人員的爭執,而打砸背後折射出的是學生及家長對封閉化壟斷環境中食宿服務價高、質低的久來怨憤。例行督查餐廳衛生起衝突柘城二高是河南省示範性高中,位於縣城內,現有師生8000多人,教學樓前報刊欄玻璃上被砸出的大窟窿似乎訴說著14日那場風波。“中午剛過12時,我到食堂正準備吃飯,忽然聽到不遠處有人大聲嚷嚷,不一會兒就見有同學掀桌子砸餐具了。”“當時好多人都在吃飯,看到有人打砸桌子,也有不少跟著起哄。”幾個學生向記者講述了當時的情景。事發後,校方對事件的調查結果顯示:9月13日上午,二年級A部學生會例行監督檢查餐廳衛生及飯菜質量,因懷疑38號窗口飯菜質量有問題,而對方工作人員不配合且態度不端,雙方發生爭執。14日中午就餐時,20余名學生與餐廳38號窗口工作人員發生爭執並起衝突,學生掀翻餐廳桌椅28張,造成部分學生和職工圍觀,學生與員工沒有發生肢體接觸,無人員受傷。目前,學校已對餐廳38號作業組停業整頓,涉事兩名員工被開除處理。學校要求承包食堂的餐飲公司深刻檢討,提高食堂員工的服務質量和飯菜質量。學生打砸食堂疑校內高物價引發記者採訪瞭解到,打砸事件的背後,是學生及家長對於校內高物價的長期積怨。以前,學生可以出入校門,自主選擇消費,但新學期以來,校方強制施行封閉化管理,嚴禁學生校外用餐和住宿,最終激化了矛盾。說起學校的高物價,柘城二高的學生滿腹牢騷。“食堂比外邊飯店都貴,同樣價錢的蒸餃,校內一籠只有8個,校外的有12個,味道還好得多。”“宿舍沒有插座,想充電去超市,一次5毛錢。”“這學期住宿費漲了60元,說是要在宿舍安裝空調,但根本沒有裝。”校長助理梁傑說:“封閉化管理有利於維護校園安全秩序,有利於鍛煉學生自理自立的能力,有利於提高學生成績。”他認為提高成績是重中之重,封閉化管理符合家長和學生的利益。但封閉校園里的高物價讓一些學生和家長並不“領情”,不少質疑聲開始出現:封閉化管理只是為了追求壟斷的經濟利益。“七八千學生呢,吃飯住宿的花自存倉可不是小數目。”一位家長跟記者說。學校食堂都是外包運營的針對這些質疑,柘城二高紀檢書記張濤向記者介紹說,學校的食堂和宿舍都是外包運營的,學校在這些方面其實並不盈利。“新建的6棟宿舍樓都是由校外企業投資並負責運營,住宿費也由他們收取;食堂由一家餐飲企業承包,學校對這些承包商進行監督和管理。”當問到校內食宿價格是否偏高,張濤稱:“校方一直在盡力監管。”作為公辦學校,柘城二高的硬件設施為何由校外企業投資並運營呢?柘城縣教體局黨委副書記付永清說:“柘城二高建于2000年7月,原來是公辦民助的性質,辦校的時候政府並沒有投入,全都是引進的外來資金,直到2011年9月,二高才完成改製,成為完全的公辦學校。”據瞭解,柘城二高目前仍然欠外債高達3000多萬元;全校300多名老師,還有四分之一沒有編制,需要學校發工資。“我們沒有錢再去養活廚師、宿舍日常管理人員,只能把食堂宿舍外包出去,引入資金來建設發展學校。”付永清說。事發後,柘城二高對事件進行了總結和反思。梁傑介紹說,針對學生反映的食宿問題,校方下一步將會進行整改。有關專家建議,控制封閉化管理下校園內的物價,一是要加大財政的投入,用財政補貼承包方的形式來降低學生的購買成本;二是要儘量引入公平的競爭機制,通過市場的調節作用來控制校園內的物價水平。河南涉事學校校長被免職記者18日晚間從河南省柘城縣委宣傳部獲悉,針對輿論關注的“柘城縣二高被學生打砸事件”,當地已對該校校長、一名副校長作出免職處理,另有一名負責該 高中工作的縣教體局黨委副書記受到黨內警告處分。由柘城縣委宣傳部提供的處理意見顯示,免去柘城縣第二高級中學校長彭宇職務並給予行政記過處分;免去該校分管綜治、學生和餐廳工作的呂志軍副校長職務,並給予行政記大過處分;給予縣教體局聯繫二高工作的黨委副書記付永清黨內警告處分,並責成縣教體局對柘城二高相關責任人作出相應處理。事件發生後,柘城縣委、縣政府立即成立了調查處理工作組進駐該校,調查瞭解事件真相,完善管理措施,提升飯菜質量,加強硬件建設,理順化解學生情緒。同時,學校餐飲單位對餐廳38號窗口作業組停業整頓,對涉事的兩名餐飲人員予以辭退,並以書面的形式向全體師生道歉。據新華社迷你倉

India's poor neglected by business sector, says ITD
Source: Bangkok Post, ThailandSept.self storage 21--Thai businesses wanting to develop a foothold in India are advised to look at opportunities in low-end segments that domestic producers have neglected, say experts."People should not look at India as a single market of 1.2 billion consumers when 600 million people are still living below the poverty line," said Piti Srisangnam, a researcher with Thailand's International Institute for Trade and Development (ITD).India defines poverty as earning less than 20 rupees (10 baht) per day.People in this bracket represent a larger market than the upper and middle classes of 300 million people.Poor people are particularly important to the small consumable goods category.Even though margins may be low, sales will more than justify entering this market, Mr Piti said.He said Indians perceive Thai products as reputable and of high quality, but Thai businesses lack understanding of local needs and consumption trends.From 2000-11, India-bound investments from Thailand totalled US$92.1 million.Despite the Thailand-India Free Trade Agreement, Thai investment accounts for only 0.06% of total foreign direct investment (FDI) in India, said ITD deputy executive director Watcharas Leelawath.Satish Sehgal, president of 迷你倉he India-Thai Business Association, said: "Low investment may stem from the Thai business community's generalisation of Indian business practices."Doing business in India requires a local partner that will handle distribution and product representation, he said.Indian lawyers are also important as local and state laws are varied and complex.Tharadol Thongruang, minister counsellor in the Office of Commercial Affairs at the Thai embassy in New Delhi, said Thai businesses should adopt the Japanese practice of relocating production bases.India has high non-tariff barriers, while logistics and distribution networks and other infrastructure remain poor, he said.A production base in India would eliminate unnecessary tariffs and reduce transport costs.Mr Tharadol said Thai businesses should also consider opening up in secondary cities away from major metropolitan areas.Many of these cities compete for FDI by offering incentives."One area that Thai businesses can look into is processing facilities for perishable goods. There is high wastage in this sector," said Mr Sehgal.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 the Bangkok Post (Bangkok, Thailand) Visit the Bangkok Post (Bangkok, Thailand) at .bangkokpost.com Distributed by MCT Information Services文件倉
