南方日報訊 (記者/周人果)《旅遊法》施行的第一個國慶黃金周,迷你倉最平九寨溝發生遊客滯留事件,海螺溝景區發生路面塌陷事故等,將不堪客流重壓的景區推至風口浪尖。專家表示,盡管《旅遊法》對景區流量控制有明確規定,但要嚴格落實仍需一個漫長的過程。根據《旅遊法》第四十五條規定,景區接待遊客不得超過景區主管部門核定的最大承載量。景區應當公佈景區主管部門核定的最大承載量,對景區接待旅遊者的數量進行控制。廣東省旅遊局提醒遊客,《旅遊法》第四十五條規定,景區在旅遊者數量可能達到最大承載量時,應提前廣而告之;當地政府對景區流量控制負有統籌職責,當遊客數量可能達到最大承載量時,應當指揮、引導、協助景區及時疏導、分流。景區主管部門具有核定和監督景區承載量的職責,景區採取流量控制儲存主要方式包括門票預約、合理設計景區內遊覽線路、設置明確清晰的景區指示牌、提前公佈景區流量等。盡管《旅遊法》對景區流量控制有相關規定,但記者從廣東省旅遊局獲悉,目前國家旅遊局尚未出台關於景區最大承載量的核算標準,且每個景區最大承載量並未對外公佈。中國社科院旅遊研究中心特約研究員劉思敏表示,每個景區都未對外公佈自己的最大承載量,這很難判定它是否違法,旅遊者很難依此維權。其次,黃金周期間景區限流或與兩方利益相衝突,一方是景區自身,另一方則是僅能在黃金周出游的消費者,如果景區控制流量,在一定程度也損害了遊客的利益。劉思敏建議,各大景區應從平時就建立起門票預約制度,並給予預約門票的遊客一些獎勵,比如門票價優惠,或優先入園等,逐漸培養遊客自覺提前預約門票的習慣。mini storage

Source: The Roanoke Times, Va.self storageOct. 04--Democratic gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe slammed the government shutdown during a campaign stop in downtown Roanoke today, and touted diversified economic development as a way to soften the blow of any future gridlock.McAuliffe, who received a tour of Sumdat Farm Market on Market Street, was in town to talk about his plan to build Virginia's agriculture and forestry industries. After looking through the store's selection of local jams, beers and wines, he stepped outside to see the squash and vegetable selections and quickly moved to attack the federal government shutdown.In comments to reporters, he linked the shutdown, which began Tuesday, to the tactics of the tea party and "allies of Ken Cuccinelli," his Republican opponent and the state's current attorney general."They have used the government shutdown as a tool for their ideological battle," McAuliffe said.Anna Nix, a spokeswoman for the Cuccinelli campaign, pointed to the Republican candidate's comments earlier this week that he would like to see the government up and running. Cuccinelli also has called for top legislators to decline their paychecks during the shutdown."It's interesting that Terry McAuliffe has not yet said whether he agrees with Ken Cuccinelli's call for the president, his Cabinet and all members of Congress to decline their paychecks during the government shutdown," Nix said. "His silence might have something to do with his fear of upsetting his many friends inside the Beltway."McAuliffe cited mini storagehe thousands of Virginian federal government employees who have been furloughed as a negative impact on the state's economy."It's devastating and it's wrong," he said.As part of the conversation about the shutdown and the previous federal budget measure that sequestered funds and affected facilities in the state, McAuliffe pushed plans to bolster private industry sectors like agriculture and energy."That's what we have to do," he said. "Preserve the jobs we have today and make sure we grow and diversify for the future."He also expressed his support for the Medicaid expansion that Virginia has not accepted, promising to accept the money offered by the federal government as a piece of the Affordable Care Act.McAuliffe said it would aid the economy, as well as the low-income adults who would become covered by Medicaid, by "bringing Virginia's federal tax money back to Virginia."With those funds in tow, McAuliffe said he could free up some of the state's general fund to implement education reforms, including changes to the SOLs -- a point for which a passer-by stopped to thank him.He also hailed a bipartisan approach and pointed to the endorsement he gained from the Republican mayor of Virginia Beach.Claiming Cuccinelli would cut taxes and have no way of filling the gap, McAuliffe called the election critical and implored voters to take part in the off-year tally.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 The Roanoke Times (Roanoke, Va.)

URL:.chinanews.com.cn/sh/2013/10-05/5345205.shtml  ■ 社論  破解“一日游”市場“劣幣驅逐良幣”的惡性循環,mini storage無疑要從改善監管入手,這樣才能給正規“一日游”成長壯大的機會。  國慶期間,北京非法“一日游”再次引起關注。新京報記者調查發現,一些非法“一日游”多打著正規旅行社的旗號攬客,在網絡上,非法“一日游”的廣告泛濫。  北京的非法“一日游”問題,已經被曝光很多年了,但一直沒有得到根治。這麼多年來,相關部門組織過多次打擊行動,並聯合多家旅行社推出正規“一日游”,但非法“一日游”不僅未銷聲匿跡,反而日漸壯大。有業內人士透露,非法旅行社已佔有北京“一日游”市場份額90%以上。  正規“一日游”為何難敵非法“一日游”?說到底,還是由於監管不到位,未能形成公平的市場競爭環境,使得非法“一日游”可通過低價攬客,大量搶奪正規旅行社的客源。曾有報道說,有的山寨旅行社甚至在正規旅行社門口攬客。這使得不少旅行社乾脆放棄了“一日游”產品,這反過來又強化了了非法“一日游”的優勢,如此便形成了惡性循環。  破解這個惡性循環,無疑要從改善監管入手,通過創造公平、透明的市場環境,壓制非法“一日游”的生存空間,給正規“一日游”以市場機會,扶植其不斷壯大,成為主流。  可以看到,盡管相關部門多年來不斷打擊非法“一日游”迷你倉但這些治理多是運動式的,往往雷聲大、雨點小。比如,非法“一日游”的問題,多是媒體最先曝光,相關部門才介入,鮮見監管部門像媒體一樣去暗訪、主動執法。顯然,這是個亟須彌補的短板。  其實,遏制非法“一日游”,還是有很多措施可以探索的。比如,非法“一日游”攬客多在廣場、車站、景點等外來遊客密集的公共場所,對此,不僅要加強對非法旅遊小廣告的打擊,也應通過樹立提示牌,借助戶外廣播、顯示屏等,對遊客進行提醒,戳破非法“一日游”低價謊言,引導遊客選擇正規一日游。再如,網絡是非法“一日游”拉客的又一重要渠道,所以理應加強對網絡非法旅遊廣告的打擊,不僅要嚴懲發佈者,對於未盡審核把關義務的網絡運營商同樣應當重罰。  另外,2012年北京接待外地旅遊散客1.3億人次,可獲批從事正規“一日游”的旅行社只有20多家,如此龐大的市場,這些正規旅行社的數量無疑太少。因此,相關部門不妨降低正規“一日游”的審批門檻,讓更多中小旅行社獲得合法經營權。如此一來,將能激活旅遊市場的競爭,提高正規“一日游”的服務水平,同時那些暗中參與非法“一日游”的旅行社,也可以獲得合法經營的機會。  非法“一日游”的治理是項系統工程,並非單個部門所能完成,也並非單純的打擊就可奏效。所以北京有關部門應該早日拿出一個全面的方案,明確相關責任部門,強化部門間的溝通協調,共同推動非法“一日游”的治理。文件倉

Source: The Gazette, Cedar Rapids, IowaOct.儲存 04--2-Minute DrillMICHIGAN STATE (3-1, 0-0) at IOWA (4-1. 1-0)IOWA RUSH OFFENSE VS. MICHIGAN STATE RUSH DEFENSESo much of what ever team does every week is set up. Last week, the Hawkeye ran to the left 22 of 39 called handoffs to the running back. Whether the calls came from offensive coordinator Greg Davis in the press box or quarterback Jake Rudock caught Minnesota tipping its hand, it doesn't matter. Iowa ran that way, mostly outside zone, because it worked. Iowa averaged 5.9 yards a carry and took the air out of the ball in the second half.Against Michigan State this week, Iowa will see a 4-3 over defense that will use its defensive tackles creatively and will probably shift them just before the snap, small but significant changes. Just like Iowa, the Spartans want to keep their linebackers -- Max Bullough (6-3, 245), Taiwan Jones (6-3, 250) and Denicos Allen (5-11, 218) -- clear of any offensive linemen. Given last week's left-sided Iowa offense, this probably slides a DT (Tyler Hoover or Micajah Reynolds) to an offensive tackle and thus changes the angle to the linebackers.So, Iowa favored the left last week. It probably changes this week, but what likely won't change is Iowa's personnel groups. Expect to see fullback Adam Cox. His presence will give Iowa extra muscle getting through the line of scrimmage and will serve as a counter to MSU's counters.You've heard of MSU's linebackers and most of its D-linemen, but redshirt freshman DE Shilique Calhoun (6-4, 250) is new. He leads the Spartans in QB hurries (8) and tackles for loss (4). In four games, Calhoun has scored three defensive TDs.The cumulative effect will be in full force for Iowa's offense. Last season, running back Mark Weisman had 11 carries for 22 yards at halftime. He finished with 26 carries for 121 yards, including a 5-yard TD with 55 seconds left to send the game to OT. Iowa will pile up a lot of 2-yard carries with the idea those become 8-yarders in the second half.The Spartans like cover 4, which allows their linebackers to be aggressive vs. the run and play downhill football.Advantage: PushIOWA PASS OFFENSE VS. MICHIGAN STATE PASS DEFENSEMichigan State's defensive backs are engaged and important in everything the Spartans defense does. MSU plays a quarters coverage with safeties keying on the quarterback and, probably this week, Iowa's tight ends. MSU defensive coordinator Pat Narduzzi's twist on quarters is a tight man-to-man coverage corners on outside receivers. Corners Darqueze Dennard and Trae Waynes lock up and throw away the key.Dennard and Waynes will press Iowa's wide receivers to the point where they ask the officials if they're still onside. Will Iowa's receivers be able to match that and stay on route and on time? This is what Iowa did under Norm Parker, 4-3 and quarters coverage with little variance. The idea was a fast and physical defense and not one that's flat-footed and thinking. The moves the Spartans might try out of this depends how much they respect Iowa's pass offense. Narduzzi will probably want to challenge first-year starter Jake Rudock.The Spartans ran into a glitch the last time out against Notre Dame, drawing four pass intereference penalties and a holding. MSU isn't backing off its techniques. The school sent video to Big Ten officials and it was assured the problem wasn't systemic. "We're gonna play like we played," Narduzzi told the Detroit Free Press last week. "And what people have to understand is we're one of the top defenses in the country and have been, and we've got lockdown cornerbacks (Darqueze Dennard and Trae Waynes). They shouldn't be surprised when we're covering people and locking them down."The Hawkeyes will have to force MSU out of its comfort zone or hold its own at the very least. Can Iowa tight ends create with their speed against Michigan State's linebackers? That group hasn't been a force in a game yet this season. Wide receiver Kevonte Martin-Manley has 26 receptions and no one else on Iowa's offense has cracked double digits. Perhaps the biggest question with Iowa's passing game this week is how much can WR Damond Powell's role grow? He averages 51.5 yards a catch. MSU is going to know when he's on the field and will adjust. In a game of grip-and-grunt, would Iowa dare to get creative with Powell, or will his growth in the offense take hold after the idle week next week?Rudock has rightfully been praised for his poise, which will face its toughest test yet this week. One stat that quantifies that is third down. Rudock leads the Big Ten with a 59.2 percent completion rate (29 of 49) on third down, converting 20 of those passes for first downs.Advantage: Michigan StateMICHIGAN STATE RUSH OFFENSE VS. IOWA RUSH DEFENSEFirst, Le'Veon Bell and his 382 carries from last season are in the NFL playing for the Steelers. (Is Bell the most Steelers' running back since Jerome Bettis?) It stands to reason the production here hasn't been where it was in 2012, with no 100-yard rushers yet this season. So, who are the new guys? Jeremy Langford (6-0, 208) sort of forged ahead in a 1a-1b situation with Nick Hill (5-8, 190) with 68 yards against Notre Dame.Langford turned heads in April 2012 with a 4.3-second 40-yard dash. He was switched to wide receiver after switching from running back to corner as a freshman because he saw a playing time opportunity. Make no mistake, he's a running back right now. "If he gets a crease, he can go the distance," Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio told reporters at the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl. "He needs to be a little firmer in between the tackles. But he's getting bigger and stronger as he grows."MSU's O-line is growing into a heavyweight contender. The inside is solid with guards Blake Treadwell and Damini storage France and center Jack Allen. Redshirt freshman Jack Conklin (6-6, 326) has wedged his way into playing time at both tackle spots.Iowa is playing physical rush defense. The Hawkeyes beat down their first test against a rush offense that wanted to be physical (holding Minnesota to 30 yards last week). They even held up against read-option QB Jordan Lynch, holding the fringe-ish Heisman candidate to 56 yards and 2.55 yards a carry. Odd stat check: MSU is 1-2 against Iowa since 2007 when it rushes for more than 100 yards.Advantage: IowaMICHIGAN STATE PASS OFFENSE VS. IOWA PASS DEFENSEOne of the first thoughts that Kirk Ferentz and Greg Davis had after last season's 4-8 thud was the Hawkeyes needed -- absolutely had to have -- more explosive plays on offense. Iowa has 68 plays that have gone for 10-plus yards after producing just 138 last season. The reason for this factoid is for comparison with Michigan State. The Spartans are 109th in the nation with 47 10-plus plays. A lot of the struggle has been the identity at quarterback.Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio conducted a four-man race during camp that he says now is settled, but still looks open. Sophomore Connor Cook is the guy, but against Notre Dame two weeks ago, he was pulled in favor of senior Andrew Maxwell in the final two minutes of a game in which MSU absolutely had to have a TD. Cook seemed genuinely disappointed. Dantonio has spent a lot of this week circling the verbal wagons around a QB who has a completed 11 of 27 passes on third down (40.7 percent).MSU's receivers also have struggled. MLive.com gave this group an "F" for a quarter season grade and cited approximately an average of four dropped passes a game. Dantonio: "I think our players are very capable of being able to make those plays. Again, we're going to find out as we continue to move through this season, but we've obviously got to score more points. I don't think there is any question about that." Can that just suddenly happen one week when there hasn't been any evidence of it against FBS competition this season?Iowa's pass rush was more organic last week, with three of four sacks coming from D-linemen. By the way, that was a high for the Hawkeyes since five at Purdue in 2011.Iowa has played less quarters coverage since the opener, when the Hawkeyes were burned for three long TD passes. Corners B.J. Lowery and true freshman Desmond King have played more man coverage. Last week, Minnesota found a vein of success with the post corner route, going over or inside on Lowery. Iowa has forced teams to the air in the first five weeks and that has scarred the secondary. "It's like the relief pitcher that gives up the home run, you can't pack it in, you have to take the ball the next day," Ferentz said.Advantage: IowaSPECIAL TEAMSMSU punter Mike Sadler has been busy. He averages 41.20 yards 25 punts, that's second to only Purdue in the Big Ten (but only two more than No. 3 Iowa). He has placed 48 percent of his punts (12 of 25) inside the 20 and 32 percent inside the 10 (8-of-25). Conversely, Iowa sophomore Connor Kornbrath has put 56 percent of his punts (13 of 23) inside the opponent's 20. He also has had just three punts returned. The punter is a weapon in this game. In the last six meetings, the schools have combined for 76 punts (12.6 a game).Senior Kevin Muma missed two field goals in the 20- to 39-yard range and lost the job to freshman Michael Geiger, whose only two field goals came at Notre Dame, one being a 43-yarder into the wind. Iowa kicker Mike Meyer has made five of his last FGs and is 3-for-3 from 40-plus yards. Wide receiver Macgarret Kings seems to have settled in at punt return (10.5 ypr).Can the Spartans make Iowa pay for shoddy kick coverage? RB Nick Hill is MSU's primary kick returner. He averages 19.0 yards a return. MSU is last in the Big Ten with 17.86 a return. Ferentz said during the week that Iowa's breakdowns that allowed returns of 66 and 53 yards at Minnesota were fixable.Advantage: IowaINTANGIBLES1) The Bully Belt -- Michigan State is frank in its action and intention. The Spartans defense has backed this up and then some for the last several years. There simply is no substitute for the confidence of an established and stellar record of excellence. MSU defensive coordinator Pat Narduzzi punctuated that last week with his comments about the penalties against his secondary at Notre Dame. 2) Simply turnovers -- The two anomalies in the Ferentz-Dantonio/Iowa-Michigan State grunt fest were 2010 and 2011. In '10, the Hawkeyes won 37-6 on the strength of three turnovers. In '11, it was Michigan State 37-21 and Iowa with three turnovers. The turnover numbers this season favor . . . oh, look at that, both teams sit at plus-3. 3) Home field, home schmield -- This series has become so vacuum-packed that there really no advantage to anything really. In the last six meetings, the home team is 3-3.Advantage: PushIOWA WILL WIN IF . . .It keeps doing what it's doing on third down. The Hawkeyes are No. 13 in the nation converting 52.50 percent on third down (42 of 80). Last season, Iowa was 36.36 on third down with just 64 conversions all season. On defense, Iowa is No. 7 in the nation, allowing just a 25.35 conversion percentage.MICHIGAN STATE WILL WIN IF . . .The Spartans can keep Rudock from finding a comfort level, keep him guessing and just generally see if he has any flinch in him. Iowa's sophomore QB has yet to be marauded. The Spartans have that gear. In 2011, this defense produced 45 sacks. Five members from this year's defense picked up sacks that season.PREDICTION: Iowa 16, Michigan State 14Copyright: ___ (c)2013 The Gazette (Cedar Rapids, Iowa) Visit The Gazette (Cedar Rapids, Iowa) at thegazette.com Distributed by MCT Information Servicesself storage

據《華爾街日報》報導,self storage諾基亞控告宏達電(2498)侵權案,遭美國國際貿易委員會(ITC)初判敗訴,因涉及硬體元件,影響擴及HTCONE等新機種,可能波及明年宏達電出貨。宏達電表示,將儘快尋找替代方案,確保事業不受影響。宏達電今年2月發表的新HTC ONE獲獎消息不斷,近日再獲英國科技雜誌《T3》的年度手機、年度設計大獎,擠下蘋果的IPHONE 5與三星的S4。不過,日前宏達電與諾基亞的官司敗訴,可能衝擊美國市場出貨。上周ITC判決宏達電侵犯諾基亞2項通訊專利,當時宏達電曾對外表示,遭控侵權的都是舊機種,迷利倉面影響不大。但外電報導,諾基亞在相關文件指出,專利所保護的晶片由高通所製,相關人士透露,宏達電的新HTC ONE及其他新機種,也採相同技術。業界人士指出,由於侵權爭議來自硬體技術、而不是軟體,宏達電必須與高通聯手修改設計,要立即研發出替代品的難度不低。如果ITC到明年元月仍維持原決議,恐影響宏達電新機在美國的出貨。另外,彭博社報導,微軟收購諾基亞之後,反手拉攏宏達電,雙方正在洽談以零授權費的方式,讓宏達電開發雙系統的智慧手機,也就是在ANDROID手機上,再添加WINDOWS作業系統。對此,宏達電不願評論。自存倉

我93年初到英國是到近約克郡的Hull,self storage在街上所見以白人居多。之後我到倫敦玩,看到那兒明顯有較多有色人種。不過,相對於同年暑假從英國到美國紐約工作兼旅遊時,在街上看到的絕大部分是有色人種的情況,實在差很遠。那時我才深深體會到美國是一個移民國家,所謂的美國人只是當年移民到美國的不同國家人的後代。由於美國曾是英國的殖民地,英文自然成了美國政府的語言,從各地移民到美國的也自然要學英文。英文成了這個影響全球文化的國家的語言。現在英國再不能算甚麼大國,但曾幾何時,她號稱「日不落國」,就是無論何時,總有一個她的殖民國仍是白天,英文成了許多地區的法定語言,與英國相距千里,處於亞洲的小小香迷利倉的其中一個法定語言也是英文。由此可見,要在世界上通行無阻,學好英文是免不了的。現在全球以英語為母語的人口是4億,但能說某程度的英文人口有40億,是母語人口的10倍!現在,中國經濟起飛,許多人都努力地學普通話。不過,「Putonghua」一詞在許多西方地方仍不是那麼通行,他們仍沿用「Mandarin」,可見「普通話」這語言在國際社會上的地位仍有待進一步認同。另方面,就是在中國國內,仍有三成人口,即4億多人口仍不會說普通話。Salin Wong Facebook:Salin Wong作者是經驗中文普通話老師,丈夫是英國人。現為語文中心行政總監。電郵:am730@mlc.edu.hk自存倉

【本報訊】據中央社台北三日電:“立法院”今天舉行服貿協議公聽會,儲存多數業者認為,服貿協議有助台灣金融業擴大業務商機,但也有人質疑與大陸簽署服貿協議後的“國安”問題。台銀行可滿足需求“立法院”第八屆第四會期“內政”等委員會今天就“兩岸服務貿易協議”舉辦第五場公聽會,台灣大學經濟系教授許振明在會上表示,台灣金融業有先進地區水準,不用擔心大陸銀行業的競爭;但雙方規模差距太大,可能會有不公平競爭,要多注意。彰化銀行董事長陳淮舟指出,台商到大陸時間很久,分佈範圍也廣,許多台商有融資需求,但台商多屬中小企業,在大陸融資困難,服貿開放後,台灣的銀行能滿足台商的需求。此外,台灣的銀行業近年競爭激烈,對外放款甚至超過對台灣內部放款,若能在大陸地方有據點,對風險控管也有很大幫助。前“國策”顧問黃天麟認為,服貿開放看似短期有利,但實際上有很多長期陷阱,台灣的銀行要國際化,不是一中市場化,台灣應先加入跨太平洋夥伴協議,再mini storage與大陸的服貿協議。簽服貿為幫助台商中華經濟研究員吳惠林則說,服貿協議有不對等、在安全問題亮紅燈、談判過程不透明等問題,金融業牽涉到“國安”,對金融的開放應該更加保守。“陸委會”主委王郁琦在答覆時表示,金融業是台灣工商業發展時重要的融資來源,“應該是台商走到哪,金融業就要走到哪”,簽署服貿是為了幫助台商。此外,協議對等不是簡單的一項對一項的問題,應整體考量,政府在協商服貿時有注意對等與“國安”問題。“經濟部”次長卓士昭表示,二○○八年以前政府的政策是由世界走向大陸,但只簽署了四個自由貿易協定,佔台灣對外貿易總額百分之○點二;二○○八年後政府政策是由大陸走向世界,與大陸簽署ECFA後,與新西蘭、新加坡的FTA都有顯著進展,目前也與部分東南亞國家進行一系列的研究。“金管會”副主委黃天牧則強調談判過程對等,且都有徵詢業界意見,不會不透明。政府比誰都關心風險,但也會注意到業者機會,大陸業者來台也會嚴格審查。self storage
