真正在黃金周期間擁堵、火爆的，迷利倉實際上主要是100多家5A級景區。如果把全國最頂尖景區的擁堵“放大”為全國景區的擁堵，就是典型的以偏概全；假若再據此做出通過取消黃金周解決擁堵問題的決策，就更是荒謬的因噎廢食了。無論媒體還是公�，似乎都對黃金周達成了一個普遍共識，那就是——堵！一滴水的確可以見太陽，但一滴水畢竟不是太陽，其實，所謂黃金周擁堵就是被誇大了的局部現象，那麼它的背後，是否還有一些深層次的東西，是我們沒有注意到但可能更應該也更值得注意的呢？黃金周的擁堵其實具有相對性、局部性黃金周擁堵“盛名之下，其實難副”，全國數萬家景區，門庭冷落的不在少數，真正在黃金周期間擁堵、火爆的，實際上主要是100多家5A級景區。即使是公路的擁堵，也主要發生在長三角、珠三角等經濟發展超前、汽車保有量較大的地區以及那些與核心景區、熱門景區的連接線上。放眼全國，西部絕大多數地區不堵，名氣小的景區也不堵，除了像八達嶺、故宮、頤和園這些外地遊客比較集中的地方以外，北京城區都是暢通無阻，道路交通非常之好。筆者十一期間去了黑龍江佳木斯的大亮子河國家森林公園，人少、景美、空氣好，到那裡的人都享受到了難得的愜意。因此，擁堵，只是相對而言，是“點”，而不是“面”。如果把全國最頂尖景區的擁堵“放大”為全國景區的擁堵，就是典型的以偏概全；假若再據此做出通過取消黃金周解決擁堵問題的決策，就更是荒謬的因噎廢食了。根治擁堵是一種不切實際的幻想黃金周集中旅遊特別是擁堵確實不可避免地導致社會資源的浪費，也影響了公�的出游體驗。但是，不管對於自然界還是人類社會，這種周期性的不均衡運動，如農曆每月十五的錢塘潮、城市交通的早晚高峰，都是一種正常現象，很難人為消除。黃金周擁堵也是一樣，伴隨著生活水平的提高、旅遊需求的旺盛以及人們對自我價值的追求，加上假日等社會條件、氣候、地理、文化傳統、消費習慣等因素，必然存在於一個周期性不均衡的動態過程之中。既然這種不均自存倉現象是必然的，怎麼可能根治得了呢？春節滿足的是民�關於家庭團聚、文化傳承的傳統精神需求，黃金周滿足的是日益增長的以旅遊消費為載體的現代精神需求，同樣都是具有一定剛性的需求。而且旅遊這種現代精神需求在與日俱增。因此不難想象，假如取消黃金周，只能增大出行、出游需求的“堰塞湖”，其破壞性不可低估，也嚴重影響民�的幸福感提升。緩解黃金周擁堵的現實之道對於擁堵問題，只能通過一些方式來緩解，不可能根治。根據國際經驗，帶薪休假確實是發達國家普遍採用的一種比較理想的休假模式(當然並非這些國家就沒有事實上的集中休假現象，如歐美的聖誕長假和日本的黃金周)，但是國務院辦公廳印發的《國民旅遊休閒綱要（2013-2020年）》對職工帶薪休假制度的落實提出的明確目標也只是“到2020年，職工帶薪年休假制度基本得到落實。”帶薪休假能夠逐步落到實處固然是好，但在帶薪休假尚未基本落實、且已明確七年之內無法“基本落實”的情況下，面對現實，切實緩解長假需求與長假短缺的尖銳衝突，疏通公�出行、出游需求的“堰塞湖”，進一步改革假日制度，增設一個或兩個黃金周長假則不僅必要，甚至可謂當務之急。現階段解決出行“擁堵”問題的根本之道是，在推進帶薪休假制度的基礎上，增加兩個法定假日到五一，直接恢複五一黃金周；或者增加3個法定假日，通過前挪後借雙休日，增設一個黃金周（在中國旅遊日前後放假3天增設春夏黃金周或在8月上旬增設避暑黃金周）；或者將春節黃金周延長到10至14天，現有的清明、端午、中秋三個傳統節日可以採取新的放假辦法——在節日當天放假一天，原則上不調休，若節日恰逢雙休日，則固定在雙休日之後的周一（或之前的周五）補假，形成固定、可預期的小連休（或者不再另行補假）。這樣就既能保證傳統節日可以處於休假狀態，又不至於因為頻繁的雙休日調休嚴重打亂生活與工作節奏，同時由於三天與兩天相比，其功能難以產生質變，因此也不至於影響休假的質量。□劉思敏（旅遊社會學者）迷你倉

Source: The Arizona Daily Sun, FlagstaffOct.迷你倉 10--The Flagstaff City Council discussed during a work session Tuesday the language of three versions of a local food production resolution.Ultimately, Mayor Jerry Nabours asked Councilmember Jeff Oravits and Vice Mayor Coral Evans to work together to find common ground between their two versions to bring back to the public for input.Basically, the proposed nonbinding resolutions seek city support for efforts by its citizens to raise food, including food derived from agricultural animals, for consumption by themselves and their families.The newer versions of the resolution addressed some concern that the original resolution might somehow leave the door open or imply food producers did not have to comply with existing laws.Oravits' and Evans' resolutions, the second and third versions, added language to the effect that producers must abide by the law.Several residents commented to the council."There is no more fundamental right than the right to grow our own food" and control the quality of the food, Jonathan Allen said.Jim Burton said: "We are about civil rights; growing food for your family is a fundamental right. Times are changing. There are companies that may not have our best interests" in mind.Oravits said he was "disappointed" the resolution discussion had become "so political. It's really disappointing."Councilmember Scott Overton said: "I don't feel we are disallowing this. I am not interested in the resolution. It's not a very useful resolution in any of its three forms."Oravits said: "I would like to work on a compromise of our two resolutions (his and Evans')," proposing that he and Evans get more feedback from interested people before coming back for a council vote.VENDING CARTS AT ISSUEThe Council also discussed proposed amendments to the city statmini storagetes having to do with sidewalk cafes and vending carts.Roger Eastman, zoning code administrator for the city of Flagstaff, said the biggest issues related to an update of the code are: An inequity in the use fee, whether to apply the code outside the downtown area, and whether to make it easier for vending carts to get approval from nearby business owners.The mayor said he would like to see a prohibition of liquor before "say, 11 a.m. in the morning."Several residents offered their comment to the Council.Mark Lamberson, owner of Mountain Sports Flagstaff, said: "I feel this is a solution in search of a problem. So many people are trying to do what Flagstaff is now. We've done a pretty good job."Lamberson said in his opinion there are other downtown issues, such as broken sidewalks, that should take priority over this code revision."No one wants a vending cart in front of their place," said George Averbeck. "We don't want vendors ...."Averbeck said the carts don't pay for advertising like the downtown businesses do. He said he did not want to compete with the vending carts.As the code is currently written, vendors are required to get 100 percent approval from all business owners within 145 feet of their location. Vendors are only allowed in permitted locations.Councilmember Mark Woodson said he knows of some businesses that have encroached onto the sidewalk without a permit. Because no one is complaining and the city has other things to do that take priority, they are tolerated.The mayor asked the staff to highlight the changes to the existing code in the proposed amended draft for Council to discuss and consider at a future time.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 The Arizona Daily Sun (Flagstaff, Ariz.)

Source: The Arizona Daily Sun, FlagstaffOct.self storage 10--Where do you put that empty bottle after you've poured the last glass of wine or scraped the final dredges of tomato sauce into the pot?If you're like most Flagstaff residents, you simply throw the bottle into the trash.But an announcement from the city this week might make many change their minds.In a Facebook post, city officials announced that glass is no longer being crushed and spread on the landfill as cover. It is now headed to Phoenix and then on to Mexico to become new bottles.Unfortunately, that doesn't mean residents can just throw the glass into their green recycle bin.But they can pay an extra $3.55 a month and have their glass picked up at curbside, knowing now they will actually be recycled into bottles again."There's been a lot of confusion over the years," said city of Flagstaff community sustainability specialist McKenzie Jones. "People either thought their glass was being recycled and were upset that it wasn't, or they thought it wasn't (being recycled) and they were still upset about it."For years, a dedicated core of Flagstaff residents have collected bottles in bags and barrels and driven the dripping containers to drop-off locations around the city (see list).A few hardcore recyclers take the glass to other states and redeem it for cash.And a small but growing number of residents have elected to spend a few dollars a month to have the glass picked up curbside by the city from their homes.COSTLY TO PULVERIZEBut a common refrain from residents has always been that it is simply not worth the time to separate glass from trash if it will just end up in the landfill anyway. Because there wasn't a nearby glass recycler, waste managers say it was never cost-effective to ship the glass, so the city has used it as ADC -- or Alternative Daily Cover.To cut down on flies, rodents and windblown litter, the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality requires that landfills use a regular top-cover. Many town dumps use local dirt.However, the Flagstaff area is dirt deficient, said Steve Bergeron, solid waste manager for the city of Flagstaff."It would cost an enormous amount of money to truck dirt in," he said. "We try to keep our operational costs minimized because it keep the costs of curbside collection down," Bergeron later said.But the city has plenty of other sources of alternative cover without the crushed glass. The city has an agreement with SCA Tissue to collect its discarded paper pulp for that purpose.At Norton Environmental, the glass was previously pulverized and then combined with the SCA pulp and other green waste before being spread atop the city's trash.The pulverized product wasn't viable as a recycling material because the colored glass was mixed and it was too labor intensive to remove things like labels and bottle caps. Some locals picked up the crushed glass for use in landscaping or art projects, but the demand for the free product was lig迷利倉t.And even that process has been costly -- about a thousand dollars a month to maintain the crusher, several thousand dollars in labor to pulverize the glass and then even more to truck the tractor trailers to the landfill.For Norton Environmental, the only reason to reuse glass was because it was required in their contract.HAULED AWAY FOR FREEThen, earlier this year, General Manager Ray Sellards said he was approached by Strategic Materials in Phoenix about taking Flagstaff glass to the Valley to be recycled. He was thrilled."They offered to take the glass and haul it and it would cost us nothing to get rid of it," Sellards said. "They're not paying us, but it's going to a better place than just the landfill."He said the company also approached other cities in northern Arizona that previously had struggled to deal with their glass.Once processed in Phoenix, officials say the glass is now sent on to Mexicali, Mexico, to be rebottled by Fevisa, a Mexican company. There, Flagstaff glass will eventually become Corona, Budweiser and Coca-Cola bottles.So residents reluctant to recycle might now have the incentive to stop throwing bottles away and spend the extra $3.55 a month for a third curbside can.SEPARATE CURBSIDE CAN NEEDEDHowever, glass still can't be thrown in with ordinary recycling.Sellards says that the Norton Facility was not designed for recycling glass and glass included in ordinary recycle bins must be separated on conveyor belts, where it can harm workers and equipment."The belts get cut up and people's hands get cut up by broken bottles and sharp edges," Sellards said.The glass can still be dropped off directly at Norton Environmental at 1800 E. Butler Ave., or any of the longstanding glass collection sites around town.The city of Flagstaff has also been offering curbside pickup in special blue containers since 2011 for an additional fee.Since the city started doing curbside pickups, about 600 or 700 households have signed up for the subscription service. But that number still pales in comparison to the 17,000 residences with curbside trash pickup. Bergeron says that the city is also providing commercial glass pickup at businesses.City officials weren't completely clear on why they didn't make the information public initially, adding that they weren't certain about how the new deal would work out."It's hard to say, 'Hey, we're recycling,' when half the town thinks you are already," Jones said. "This was the big notification -- initially we were making sure that it was going through and it was successful."Residents interested in adding curbside glass pickup can contact the City of Flagstaff Solid Waste office at 213-2110. The blue cans are picked up once a month on the same day as the scheduled bulky trash pickup for a neighborhood.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 The Arizona Daily Sun (Flagstaff, Ariz.)

Some consumers, ISPs call for 'real' nationwide alternative to SingTelTHE fire at SingTel's Bukit Panjang building that crippled telecom services across Singapore has now put the spotlight on OpenNet's proposed sale to a SingTel-owned business trust.儲存Even as most of the affected services have resumed, some consumers and Internet service providers (ISPs) are calling for a "real" alternative nationwide network to SingTel's.Two-thirds of the 149 fibre-optic cables damaged by the fire belong to OpenNet, the builder of Singapore's ultra-fast national fibre broadband network. Broadband services of operators like M1, StarHub, ViewQwest and SuperInternet were also disrupted as they buy fibre links wholesale from OpenNet.People are concerned that OpenNet's network is too closely tied to SingTel's. All of its nine Internet exchanges are located within SingTel's premises, making it a risk for a single point of failure."Regardless of who eventually owns OpenNet, both SingTel and OpenNet's cables should have been in different places," said marketing director Pak Tung Sing, 44, in a letter to The Straits Times Forum page yesterday. "I used to work in a wafer fabrication facility. Such fires should have been put out within two minutes."Another Forum writer questioned the reliability of the government-backed fibre broadband network, as it is essentially reliant on one fibre network provider.ISPs affected by the fire joined the chorus. MyRepublic head of product Lawrence Chan and SuperInternet managing dir迷你倉ctor Benjamin Tan said the outage shows the danger of having only one operator for practically all fibre services here.M1 chief operating officer Patrick Scodeller explained that an alternative nationwide fixed network is "of strategic importance" not only for competitiveness but also for resiliency.These criticisms underscore a larger issue - OpenNet's pending sale to SingTel's NetLink Trust, which ISPs had earlier opposed.StarHub chief marketing officer Jeannie Ong said: "If approved, (the deal) would make OpenNet even more reliant on SingTel's infrastructure, and further increase the vulnerability of OpenNet's network."In response, an Infocomm Development Authority spokesman said facilities-based operators like StarHub and M1 have the choice to build their own infrastructure. But instead, they have chosen to build some parts of their network and lease the rest from SingTel."OpenNet, too, chose to house its systems in SingTel facilities and make use of SingTel's existing ducts and telephone exchanges," said the IDA spokesman.An OpenNet spokesman said it was "commercially and technically impractical" to build a network where every premise is served by two fibres through different ducts to separate central offices. "It is the same reason we don't have two side-by-side power grids, or sewer systems or water systems."As of 9pm yesterday, some customers in Woodlands and Hillview were still disconnected from the Internet, although most affected services had resumed.itham@sph.com.sgSEE SINGAPORE儲存倉

Source: The Washington TimesOct.存倉 10--Nearly a year after his defeat as part of the 2012 Republican presidential ticket, House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan is getting back into the public arena, stepping into the middle of the shutdown and debt fights and preparing to speak Friday to a powerful slice of the religious right.While some of the new Republican stars have shot past Mr. Ryan -- namely Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas, Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida and Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky, who have used the high-profile stage of the Senate to make early waves -- the government shutdown has moved things back into the wheelhouse of Mr. Ryan, Wisconsin Republican.This week, the 43-year-old penned an op-ed laying out a path out of the mess, and is one of the key negotiators for House Republicans if Democrats agree to the talks Republicans have proposed."It is hard to overestimate the role that Paul has had in shaping the intellectual policy positions of the contemporary Republican Party," said Rep. Tom Cole, Oklahoma Republican."That is a very different way of going about business than some of his colleagues in the Senate who have not done the hard intellectual work. I don't see anyone over there that has come close to becoming this relevant in the legislative process or the intellectual process of moving the Republican Party to ground that it can stand on and grow," he said.But Mr. Ryan's op-ed proposing to couple an increase in the government's debt ceiling with "common-sense reforms of the country's entitlement programs and tax code" was a loser among some grass-roots activists, who said he failed to mention halting Obamacare.They said he left the impression that he was not fully committed to the Cruz-led push to demand government funding be put on hold until the law is scrapped."He doesn't mention Obamacare at all, versus these other guys who will say, 'We will do anything we can to shut down Obamacare,'" said Adam Brandon, executive vice president of Freedomworks, a conservative nonprofit group. "I kind of scratched my head when he is focusing on Social Security and Medicare when we are in the middle of a very big fight over the next big flawed program: Obamacare."Add that to Mr. Ryan's outspoken support for legislation moving through Congress to legalize illegal immigrants -- a stance he shares with Mr. Rubio but not Mr. Cruz or Mr. Paul -- and some activists said he is not doing much to excite them."To say there is deep disappointment with Paul Ryan in the last few months over these various issues would be an understatement," said Sandy Rios, vice president of Family-Pac Federal and morning host for AFR Talk."One has to ask the age-old question: Has congressman Ryan been spending too much time in Washington so that he's lost the common sense of Wisconsin? We thought those deep roots would inoculate him from the insatiable search for compromise that is D.C., but apparently they did not," she said.Mr. Ryan worked as a legislative aide in the mid-1990s before he was elected to Congress in 1998 and making the jump from legislative back bencher儲存to head of the powerful House Budget Committee.He is far less flashy than Mr. Cruz, who won his seat last year and delivered a 21-hour filibuster on the Senate floor this year. Mr. Ryan also doesn't have the charisma of Mr. Rubio or the ideological passion of Mr. Paul -- both of whom were elected in the tea party wave of 2010.Surrounded by reporters Thursday after a House Republican meeting on the debt debate, Mr. Ryan neither issued any pointed demands nor fired any barbs, but instead said he is asking for a chance to negotiate.Some political pros said Mr. Ryan's more nuanced approach signals that he may be more interested in ascending the leadership ladder in the House than he is in trying to compete in a crowded field for the White House in 2016."My dad used to have a saying that, 'Things that are alive swim against the waves. Things that are dead sort of float with the waves,'" said Ken Blackwell, former secretary of state in Ohio and fellow at the Family Research Council, adding that people tend to think that Mr. Cruz and Mr. Paul are more likely than Mr. Ryan to challenge the status quo in a conservative-movement fashion."If he is positioning himself to be the next speaker of the House when that becomes a possibility, that would explain some of his moves because I don't think Paul or Cruz have any ambition to be the next majority or minority leader in the Senate," Mr. Blackwell said. "That would set in my mind the basis for them to have two different approaches."Polls show voters put Mr. Ryan right in the middle of the scrum for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination."At this point, no one stands out from the pack and Ryan is part of the pack," said Peter A. Brown, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute.Mr. Ryan has a chance to bolster his stock Friday among Christian conservatives when he addresses the annual Values Voters Summit via video."Our job is to preserve our values in the 21st century," Mr. Ryan will say, according to his office. "We need to completely rethink government's role in helping the most vulnerable. We need to completely rethink government's role in health care. That means we can never give up on repealing and replacing Obamacare."Mr. Cruz, Mr. Paul and Mr. Rubio, as well as former Sen. Rick Santorum, are scheduled to speak in person at the summit. Only Mr. Ryan, citing the budget talks and the government shutdown, has said he will appear via video.Mr. Ryan also is scheduled next month to headline Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad's annual birthday bash, putting him back in the first-in-the-nation caucus state."Paul Ryan is a thoughtful leader and is the one person in Washington who has come up with a plan to get America back on track financially," Mr. Branstad said. "I asked him to come to Iowa because I believe he has displayed excellent leadership in Washington in a time when tough decisions need to be made."Copyright: ___ (c)2013 The Washington Times (Washington, DC) Visit The Washington Times (Washington, DC) at .washingtontimes.com Distributed by MCT Information Services迷你倉

The right job for the right person - across a global workforce.self storage That's the 'true North' that LinkedIn CEO Jeff Weiner seeks. By Amit Roy ChoudhuryAS boss of a social networking site for professionals, Jeff Weiner, LinkedIn's CEO, has set a goal of opening up economic opportunity for every member of the global workforce, irrespective of their level of skills and education.Today, this is more of a vision than something that will be achieved within a fixed timeframe because the numbers are staggering - northwards of about three billion people.Mr Weiner admits that such an endeavour would take more than a decade to achieve. As such, the company's more immediate goal is connecting up the world's approximately 600 million professionals, or "knowledge workers" as LinkedIn likes to call them.With about 230 million registered users - growing at the rate of two per second - and 190 million active users per month, LinkedIn is on track to becoming the social network of choice for professionals."Our mission statement says that our goal is to connect these 600 million knowledge workers via LinkedIn and we are in a pretty good trajectory to realise this."The vision is the dream - that's true North. We want to think about the full potential of the platform and how we can create economic opportunity for every member of the global workforce."And in that respect there is a lot of growth still to happen but for now we are very focused on the realisation of the mission of connecting the world's professionals," says Mr Weiner.LinkedIn hasn't done too badly for a company that started out a decade ago as a social network to connect recruiters with job-seekers. In 2008, it had revenues in the region of US$76 million and this year it's on a run rate of around US$1.5 billion. Mr Weiner joined as president late in 2008 and became CEO in 2009. Interestingly, LinkedIn is one of the few Internet start-ups which has managed to keep Wall Street happy after it had its IPO. From a listing price of US$45, the share price has been hovering around US$220-US$225 this month. This gives LinkedIn a market value in the region of US$20 billion, making it one of the most valuable technology companies in the US.Mr Weiner feels mobile technology will play a large role in LinkedIn's endeavour to reach out to more people and eventually to the the three billion-strong global workforce. "Mobile will ensure that people who have access to digital technologies will also have access to the information and knowledge they need to accrue expertise and skills so that they can realise economic opportunities once they become available."In terms of social networks, LinkedIn has always been seen as the smaller brother of the much bigger Facebook. The social network with about one billion users is more than four times bigger than LinkedIn. In terms of revenue generation, Facebook is around four times bigger. However, if share price is a barometer of market expectations of future growth prospects, then LinkedIn is way ahead of Facebook.Social media has really changed the way that people can connect, says Mr Weiner. Historically there was great cost in terms of time and energy that was required for staying in touch with family, friends and colleagues. As a result, one could not share with other people as often as one would like. Now one can connect with even long-lost acquaintances in milliseconds.Share and share alikeNow social media has radically changed behaviour. "We are now sharing things on social media, which if people did 10 years ago, they would have been thought as being crazy. People share what they had for lunch, what they are watching on TV while they are watching it. They are talking about what they have been up to at work. They share everything. As a result, there is this never-ending stream of content that we are constantly exposed to."Mr Weiner isn't worried about Facebook's or for that matter Google's looming presence online in adjacent marketplaces to LinkedIn's."I don't think it's easy for a Facebook or Google to move into our area because context matters. More than 80 per cent of our members want to keep their professional and personal lives separate."Less inane postings happen in LinkedIn because it's a professional site and there is no anonymity. People understand that whatever you post represents who you are professionally. Since this is tied to their livelihood, people think before they post."I don't think a company which is focused on one context (that could be either professional or social) can move easily to another context and this is one of the reasons why we have had success in keeping a focus on the professional context. If you look back on the consumer Web, it's important to clearly define what the site is about. In a situation of multiple options, you have to self-organise these options and this creates enough friction to make people turn to a single focused option. So context is important for companies who have reached scale."Mr Weiner notes that people now represent themselves online with their ideas, ambitions, goals and experiences, skills and ambitions so that opportunities can accrue to them. "It's not just about job opportunities, they could want to collaborate on a project for example. How do they find you? Can they get a warm introduction with you? It's this ability to connect with other people which has forever changed because the friction of connectivity has gone."Just as Facebook has its social graph which has invaluable data on relationships between individuals, LinkedIn has an equally ambitious idea of building a world economic graph once it gets to its goal of connecting the world's three billion workforce. "Right now I would describe LinkedIn as a professional graph as we connect professionals, enabling people to find others and be found themselves," the LinkedIn CEO observes."The economic graph goes beyond that. We want to map the global economy and digitally represent every economic opportunity, both full-time and temporary and the skills required to obtain one of those opportunities."The graph would also include a profile of every company in the world, have a profile for every higher educational organisation and have a profile of every one of the three billion global workers. "We will then overlay the professional knowledge of every one of these professionals, educational institutions and companies to the extent they want to sharemini storage And once that's done, we want to get out of the way and we want to allow capital, all forms of capital - intellectual, working and human - to flow to where it can be best leveraged," says Mr Weiner.Once that happens, you can start to predict which economies are growing and which are declining and the skills of the aggregate workforce by geography, the fastest-growing jobs in those geographies and the size of the gap between them, he adds."You can predict how you can best prepare the workforce for the jobs that will be as opposed to the jobs that once were. We would be able to enable students to select schools based on outcomes. They can check the schools where the top professionals went to and reach out to them for advice and mentorship. Economists can use this data and pose questions; all of this is not possible now."Mr Weiner agrees that companies like LinkedIn are riding the cusp of the tectonic shift that is happening in how technology is both perceived and used."It goes way beyond LinkedIn or any single company. By virtue of technology and the rate of innovation, we now are faced with a situation where innovation is happening at a rate that exceeds our capacity to be trained at how best to leverage it. If you look through human evolution and history, innovation has unfolded at a pace that enabled people to retrain so that they could best leverage the new technology and create productivity gains. Until now."He gives some examples of past technological innovations. The agrarian age unfolded over a millennium. That's a long time to learn how to use new farming equipment."The industrial revolution happened over two centuries and people learned to take advantage of things like the steam engine and printing press. Then we had the information age which also unfolded over decades."With digital technology, however, you now see new innovation and companies coming up within years, if not months. So what's happening is a growing divide between economic opportunities that are being created by these innovations and the skill sets of the aggregate workforce capable of taking on these opportunities."So it's very important that we keep on retraining the workforce with the skills necessary to take up the roles that are available today, as opposed to the roles that were available yesterday."Mr Weiner asks a rhetorical question: "How do you do that?"His answer: "I think there's a number different ways. The most important of this is education and it's not just primary school reform. We need to recognise that the way in which we have taught children historically has largely become antiquated."We need to do a better job of leveraging new technologies and teaching kids how to collaborate in a world that is increasingly networked and inter-dependent. We need to inculcate in them critical reasoning, a habit of challenging assumptions and not just learning by rote and develop creative problem-solving capability. So primary school reform is going to take some time."He adds that Singapore does an unbelievable job in education and has become a model for the rest of the world. "But in markets like the US there's a lot of room to improve."Mr Weiner feels that new technologies can be used to help kids learn at their own pace and according to their own requirements.Along with better education, immigration reform is a must in order to make it easier for people with unique skills to take up jobs within markets that most need them, he adds.And lastly, digital infrastructure has to be built up rapidly. The more ubiquitous access to digital technology becomes, the more people can tap the knowledge and information that exists today so that they can be trained to take on new roles, he notes."So education, immigration reforms and the build up of digital infrastructure are the three ways we can start to close the digital gap."The dual passion for education and technology has had a great influence in shaping Mr Weiner's career. "I have been very fortunate to have had an understanding with what I've wanted to accomplish at a pretty young age and I haven't veered from that, it has evolved somewhat but it's remained pretty much on course."He has always been interested in the education reform. Mr Weiner notes that when he finished university, he could have chosen a public sector career path where he could have opted to teach or become an education administrator. "Or I could go down the private sector path and amass enough influence and resources so that I could make change happen. I opted for this path."After graduating with a bachelor of science in Economics from the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School, Mr Weiner became an analyst in a strategic management consultancy arm of Deloitte & Touche in 1992. After a couple of years there, he joined Warner Brothers. After working his way up to become VP at Warner Brothers' online division, he joined Yahoo! as an executive VP in its network division. His next stop was a stint as executive-in-residence at Accel Partners and Greylock Partners, top Silicon Valley venture capital firms. Around this time, he met Reid Hoffman, LinkedIn's founder, who brought him onboard LinkedIn in late 2008.It may not come as a surprise that the LinkedIn CEO is an information junkie. "I like reading and consuming information. And so for me, believe it or not, it's an unwinding experience. To decompress I like to consume information and lots of it."But he's no workaholic. "When I'm working, I concentrate on my job. But when I'm with my family I don't want to be using my device, especially when I'm with my daughters. I don't want to convince myself that I'm with my family when actually I'm online."So to me it's less about the hours; between waking up pretty early and catching up on email late at night it's a long day, but there is plenty of time in between to catch up with other things in life."amit@sph.com.sgJEFF WEINERLinkedIn CEO1970 Born in New York, US1992 Graduated with Bachelor of Science, Economics from University of Pennsylvania, Wharton School1992 First job - Analyst at Braxton Associates, the strategic management consultancy arm of Deloitte & Touche1994 Second job - Senior analyst at Warner Bros corporate strategic planning & development division1999 Vice-president Warner Bros Online2003 Executive vice-president, network division at Yahoo!2008 Executive-in-residence at Accel Partners and Greylock Partners2009 CEO, LinkedIn迷你倉

鯨吞天弘 阿里金融帝國之“新縱橫”“阿里巴巴擬以11.8億元認購天弘基金51%的股權，迷你倉進軍基金業的消息震驚了整個金融界。阿里巴巴強勢入主天弘基金，這意味著其在基金業務上不再僅扮演渠道角色，馬雲的平台+金融+數據戰略再進一步；而且，“攻陷”傳統金融的核心地帶之一，無疑會成為互聯網金融創新革命的示範標誌，也會成為互聯網巨頭“反噬”金融行業的里程碑。至此，阿里的金融業務已經涵蓋基金、支付、小貸、擔保以及保險業務，阿里互聯網金融帝國雛形漸顯。快錢CEO關國光認為，金融服務的本質就是中介、風險定價和資金杠杆。掌握了大量數據信息的機構是最可怕的，將對消費者或企業產生根本性改變。無論是互聯網的金融，還是金融的互聯網，或是金融性服務，金融服務的本質沒有改變。誰能夠在這幾個領域當中把握趨勢的話，就能夠有長期，顛覆性的服務產生。“掌握了大數據的阿里巴巴，對其想進入的任何行業而言，都是勢不可擋。”資深金融人士稱。按照此前的“路徑”，接下來，阿里巴巴此類互聯網巨頭“反噬”的將是銀行，還是證券公司、期貨公司？CFP圖片 合成/蘇振“阿里基金”橫空出世 “抱大腿”或引連鎖效應“11.8億就可控股一家基金公司，比銀行便宜多了。”業內人士評論道。甚至有網友評論，今後基金公司將分為三類，阿里基金公司，銀行系基金公司和其他基金公司。阿里入主天弘基金，成為互聯網巨頭“反噬”金融行業的里程碑。天弘抱上阿里這條“大腿”，也引發了聯想，業內人士由此產生兩個揣測：一是基金牌照價值驟然提升，變現的空間巨大，基金公司的股東也會“努力敦促抱大腿”。目前基金銷售困難，中小型基金公司大多開門三年難盈利。以天弘基金為例，據媒體報道，其自2004年11月8日成立之後，規模一直停滯不前，連年虧損，並沒為股東貢獻多少利潤；但今年僅餘額寶的成功，就使其扭虧為盈，可為內蒙君正帶來千萬元利潤。一位分析人士認為，與互聯網合作既可以為股東帶來內生性的淨利潤增長，也可以提升股份變現價值，尤其是對於一些已上市的小型股東更有動力。二是產業金融的互聯網時代到來。“阿里本身是一個互聯網實業企業，它大肆擴張金融版圖，就是為了利用這些金融牌照，為他的實業客戶提供金融解決方案，增加客戶黏度，深度挖掘客戶價值。”一位分析人士說，“在這種刺激下，更多為實業服務的互聯網公司會採取這種方式，”“在基金領域，這種事情，只有基金公司主動去抱互聯網公司的大腿，基金公司沒有什麼話語權。”北京某基金公司電商總監說，基金公司需要的是互聯網“大入口”，以獲取用戶資源，因此只有寥寥幾家互聯網巨頭有望成為基金公司的目標，相比之下，按照目前80余家基金公司的數量看，基金公司牌照並不是稀缺資源。有業內人士認為，也只有大型互聯網公司才有實力認購基金公司股權。“此前宏利從荷銀手中購買泰達荷銀49%的股權，花了1.56億美元，阿里控股天弘，也花了11.8億元。”可以預見，“連環抱大腿”現象或將開始出現。僅就基金行業而言，無論對基金公司還是互聯網公司，在互聯網金融競爭激烈的今天，此舉都意味著快速地站穩腳跟，如果自己去申請金融牌照培育公司，則出擊速度要慢得多。業內人士推測，百度、騰訊、東方財富、大智慧、金融界、京東、蘇寧、360等已經與基金公司展開合作的互聯網巨頭都有此打算。不過，在上述幾個巨頭中，騰訊被認為最不急著出手，“騰訊有充沛的用戶資源，他們後來居上也能玩死對手。”上述電商總監表示。“羽翼”日漸豐滿 阿里拓展“金融帝國夢”阿里的胃口遠不止11.8億元就已控股的基金公司。隨著入主天弘基金和虛擬支付即將上線，阿里的金融業務已經涵蓋基金、支付、小貸、擔保以及保險業務等，阿里虛擬金融帝國雛形漸顯。可以預見，傳統金融行業和互聯網企業的相互滲透將成為趨勢，券商、信托、金融租賃、銀行都可能成為互聯網巨頭公司的收購目標。按照此前的“路徑”，阿里接下來的目標是銀行，還是證券公司、期貨公司？其實，阿里早已開始了在金融體系主導地位——銀行業的耕耘。沒有一開始與銀行的合作，就沒有阿里巴巴後來的發展壯大。盡管馬雲從一開始和銀行合作時就表示，阿里巴巴不會成為銀行。但天下大勢，分久必合，合久必分。在阿里壯大之後，有了自己的金融事業部。金融事業部的很多業務就是儲存統的銀行業務。阿里金融事業部總裁胡曉明曾明確表示，阿里金融在某些應用領域已經實現對銀行“質的超越”。“金融當中最核心的就是風險管理能力。我們今天已經有這個能力去管控風險。”胡曉明說。胡曉明給出的數據是，2012年過年的7天假期里，阿里巴巴就對在其平台上開展業務的中小企業發放貸款近20萬筆。而2012年全年，在阿里巴巴平台上貸款小微企業，其實際貸款成本是6.7%。遠低於銀行。“外界報道在阿里巴巴貸款的利率是18%，那是年化的。我們的客戶一年當中實際貸款的天數平均為127天，實際成本只有6.07%。”胡曉明解釋。但胡曉明仍然明確表示，阿里巴巴不會辦銀行，也不會成為銀行。阿里巴巴更喜歡搭建一個平台，讓更多的金融機構接入這個平台。而事實是，今年6月份，支付寶悄然上線“餘額寶”類存款業務。通過“餘額寶”，用戶存留在支付寶的資金不僅能拿到“利息”，而且和銀行活期存款利息相比收益更高，很多人認為這是在挖銀行的“牆腳”。根據其官網介紹，2012年，10萬元活期儲蓄利息350元，如通過餘額寶收益能超過4000元，收益超過8倍。對於餘額寶的推出，網友們都大膽預測“金融界要地震了”。對“餘額寶”前途，網友的評論莫衷一是。但不論怎樣，餘額寶的規模在短短兩三個月內就達數百億元卻是事實。�所周知，存款一直是國內銀行的“立行之本”。中國平安董事長兼首席執行官馬明哲更是在一次平安的內部講話中直言，平安未來最大的競爭對手不是其他傳統金融企業，而是現代科技企業。現代科技企業進軍銀行業的腳步在不斷加快，如騰訊和阿里巴巴等國內科技公司。他們擁有進攻型的企業文化、反應敏捷的組織體系、先進的網上金融技術，以及粘連度極高的龐大用戶群。上述科技企業一旦得以突破政策限制，他們將快速搶佔市場，對傳統金融業形成勢不可擋和毀滅性的衝擊。科技的發展帶來的變化是顛覆性的、革命性的，對銀行維持了200多年的舊模式，對整個金融業，對幾乎所有市場，所有消費者，科技的衝擊，都是勢不可擋的。深度介入 互聯網加速“反噬”金融互聯網企業將深度介入金融領域，生意寶、上海鋼聯等被認為將成為下一個“阿里”。據瞭解，生意寶是國內最大垂直專業網站開發運營商，而上海鋼聯是目前國內最大的大宗商品電商平台，其手上都有大量的產業客戶。如果他們有金融牌照，則能為客戶提供融資等更多金融服務。以生意寶為例，從2012年開始，生意寶就新成立了“億元級”的新公司，這家第三方支付公司主要建設“B2B互聯網支付平台”項目，經營非金融機構互聯網支付業務，為B2B電子商務平台提供支付結算服務，也是目前國內首個由上市公司打造的B2B大額支付系統項目。另外，即將投入運行的浙江網盛融資擔保有限公司，將為B2B交易的會員提供交易、融資等金融服務。“他們瞭解產業，能夠降低信息的不對稱，有了金融牌照，他們能把客戶吃透，相當于從傳統金融業的利差中分一杯羹。”上述分析人士說，“如果他們有基金牌照，就可以為客戶理財。”下一步，互聯網“反噬”的金融領域將會是券商、銀行……這些同心化的多元發展。浦發銀行中小企業部負責人認為，掌握了客戶背後的大量數據是阿里巴巴所向披靡的根本原因。盡管銀行也掌握客戶數據，但銀行內部或者部門分割，或者防火牆隔離，這些數據並未被有效利用。一位第三方支付公司CEO更是直言，金融機構，尤其是銀行，所有的產品都是標準化的，不會為了某個公司幾萬元的業務需求專門開發一款產品。金融機構也不會跟蹤一個企業的資金流和貨物流。所以，互聯網金融有其崛起的必然性——滿足客戶的特殊需求。且掌握了客戶數據後，定制產品的成本相當低廉，風險可控。中央財經大學銀行業研究中心主任郭田勇也認為，互聯網金融三大優勢正衝擊銀行業，包括大幅降低銀行業交易成本、客戶服務口徑擴大、增強金融業風向控制能力。快錢CEO關國光表示，商業銀行利用互聯網推動業務，這是商業銀行推動業務發展利用新技術來開展的正常業務，不應屬於大家平時所說的互聯網金融。而是把金融系統外的互聯網企業涉足金融或者類金融服務，叫做互聯網金融。“金融服務的本質就是三個：中介、風險定價和資金杠杆。我覺得互聯網金融最核心的是控制信息。因為信息多了之後，你能把中介跟風險這兩件事幹好。杠杆其實跟風險有關係。”mini storage
