儘管暫未有銀行正式推出稅務貸款計劃，迷你倉惟有銀行界人士預期，受到美國聯儲局退市預期影響，今年稅貸息率不會如去年般低至1厘多水平，估計一般稅貸計劃大約會在2厘以上水平「起錶」。今年以來，銀行資金及營運成本均有所趨升。富邦（香港）高級副總裁兼消費金融部主管谷祖明表示，在聯儲局即將退市預期下，今年稅貸利率有上升壓力，近月銀行的私人貸款利率，出現略為上升趨勢。富邦：難如去年便宜去年市場曾出現低至1厘多的稅貸息率，但谷祖明預期，市場上稅貸息率不會如去年般便宜，第二階段稅貸息率甚至有可能高過第一階段。他又說，今年銀行要承做如此低息的稅貸「很有難度」，今年稅貸氣氛如何，需視乎客戶對資金mini storage需求，按照過往經驗，十一至十二月將會是稅貸高峰期。建行亞洲2.09厘起雖然暫未有銀行正式進行稅貸推廣，但建行亞洲已率先向部分信用卡客戶提供稅貸優惠，最低稅貸年利率為2.09厘，略高過該行去年的1.95厘稅貸年利率。有大型銀行私人貸款部主管承認，今年調減稅貸息率空間非常有限，然而目前資金成本依然處於低水平，加上稅貸一直是銀行吸納新客戶及主攻交叉銷售產品的渠道，因此預期有部分銀行繼續提供低息稅貸。他又稱，不會因為憂慮美國退市後貸息抽高，減少�做長年期的貸款。去年底今年初本港資金依然氾濫，當時銀行稅貸競爭激烈，市場上稅貸年利率曾低見1.29厘，之後的私貸息率最低介乎2至3厘。self storage

Source: The Eagle, Bryan, TexasSept.self storage 22--Other than too many penalties, 10th-ranked Texas A&M showed no hangover effects from last week's Alabama loss, rolling to a 42-13 victory over Southern Methodist on Saturday night at Kyle Field.Johnny Manziel and a solid defensive effort allowed A&M to move forward from the 49-42 loss to the top-ranked Crimson Tide, giving the partisan crowd of 86,542 enough reason to celebrate and move forward, too.The Aggies (3-1) showed some signs of mental wear coming off the biggest game in Kyle Field history with 13 penalties for 114 yards, and they also had a turnover and failed to convert three extra points. But the rest of the time they overwhelmed the Mustangs (1-2), who for a second straight season couldn't contain A&M's elusive quarterback.Manziel completed 14 of 21 passes for 244 yards and a touchdown. He added 102 yards and two touchdowns on 12 carries without getting caught behind the line of scrimmage, constantly leaving Mustangs in his wake tackling air."We tried everything against Manziel," SMU head coach June Jones said. "He is an amazing player. You blitz him, and he is accurate with the ball. You rush three, and he can scramble around. He is a great college football player, and he is in the perfect system."It wasn't much different a year ago when Manziel had his first big game at A&M, leading the Aggies to a 48-3 victory over SMU coming off a 20-17 loss to Florida. He had six touchdowns and 418 total yards in only three quarters, starting his run to becoming the first freshman to win the Heisman Trophy. He took a big step toward a second Heisman last week despite the loss, finishing with 562 total yards and five touchdowns.This time against SMU he needed less than three quarters, playing only the first possession of the second half to give A&M a 39-6 lead.Manziel took A&M 78 yards in eight plays with running back Ben Malena scoring from the SMU 1-yard line. The huge lead allowed Manziel to don a visor and enjoy the rest of the game, especially the defensive effort.A&M bounced back from allowing 568 yards against Alabama with its best effort of the season. The Aggies forced three turnovers, including a 12-yard fumble return for a touchdown by junior Deshazor Everett who moved from cornerback to safety. True freshman Darian Claiborne, making his first start at weakside linebacker, combined with Everett for 12 tackles.A&M allowed 434 yards, but the Mustangs ran 84 plays with only two going for more than 19 yards."We looked pretty fast out there tonight, and at times we looked extremely fast," A&M defensive coordinator Mark Snyder said.The Aggies used a 4-2-5 alignment to combat SMU's five-receiver sets, and their ability to tackle in space slowed down the Mustangs' pass-oriented spread offense, which could convert only 5 of 16 third downs."You have to have a good team effort to not expose missed tackles," A&M head coach Kevin Sumlin said.Besides Everett and Claiborne, A&M had five other players with at least five tackles led by senior cornerback Tramain Jacobs' 10. A&M also forced SMU senior quarterback Garrett Gilbert into his first interception of the season in 172 attempts. Midway through the fourth quarter with SMU facing third-and-goal at A&M's 8, A&M junior linebacker Tommy Sanders intercepted a pass. He fumbled the ball, but A&M true freshman end Daeshon Hall picked it up and returned it 39 yards.A&M sacked Gilbert only once but had four hurries and knocked down nine passes as Gilbert finished 37 of 62 passing for 310 yards."We're still a work in progress for sur迷你倉," Snyder said. "But if we keep seeing improvement every week, I think we'll be just fine."A&M wasn't able to keep SMU out of the end zone as Gilbert and Keenan Holman teamed up on a 31-yard touchdown pass early in the fourth quarter to finish the scoring. Holman had 10 catches for 133 yards.A&M's top receiving target was junior Malcome Kennedy who had six catches for 83 yards and a score. The Aggies rushed for a season-high 265 yards with senior running back Ben Malena getting 71 yards and two TDs on 13 carries.It was a quick second half after A&M took a 32-6 halftime lead.The first half, which took almost two hours, ended with SMU's Chase Hover kicking a 47-yard field goal on the final play. The Mustangs covered 61 yards on nine plays, making good use of the last 65 seconds.A&M dominated the rest of a sloppy first half as the teams combined for 21 penalties for 161 yards.The Aggies missed a chance to open the game with three touchdowns on three possessions when SMU's Hayden Greenbaum intercepted a pass that deflected off the hands of a diving Mike Evans, ending an eight-play, 31-yard drive after a successful onside kick.SMU got a 42-yard field goal after the turnover, going 66 yards in 11 plays to cut A&M's lead to 14-3.A&M answered with 18 points, finding the end zone easier than the point after. Aggie kickers missed three straight PATs, two by Taylor Bertolet and the third by Josh Lambo when holder Drew Kaser had trouble with the snap to give SMU time to block the kick.Kennedy, coming off a three-touchdown game, had a 16-yard score to make it 20-3 with 10 minutes, 29 seconds left in the half. A&M opened the 11-play, 74-yard drive with five straight rushes for 38 yards.A&M took advantage of a sack by senior linebacker Nate Askew and a 30-yard punt return by De'Vante Harris to make it 26-3. Manziel capped the four-play, 49-yard drive with a 7-yard run.Everett made it 32-3 with his fumble return. He got help from A&M safety Toney Hurd Jr. who knocked the ball from SMU receiver Jeremiah Gaines after a 3-yard gain.The Aggies couldn't stand prosperity, taking points off the board on their next possession.Sumlin opted to go for it after sophomore running back Tra Carson was stopped for no gain on third-and-1 from the SMU 5. But a false start on sophomore center Mike Matthews -- his fourth penalty of the half -- forced A&M to try a 27-yard field goal that Lambo hit. SMU, though, was offsides so A&M went for it again but a botched snap led to a 4-yard loss. SMU answered with its half-ending, field-goal drive.Lambo bounced back to hit a 40-yarder with 6 seconds left in the third quarter for A&M's final points which capped a seven-play, 75-yard drive led by junior quarterback Matt Joeckel who then gave way to true freshman Kenny Hill in the fourth quarter.A&M won the game's toss and surprisingly declined because of a miscommunication, Sumlin said. Gilbert completed six passes on SMU's first possession but the Mustangs had to punt because a 17-yard completion to Holman was wiped out by an illegal formation penalty.The Aggies took advantage of a 24-yard punt, needing only five plays to cover 52 yards, never facing a third down with Malena going the final 3 yards.A&M had to convert only one third down the next time it had the ball, a 46-yard reception by Evans, part of a seven-play, 80-yard drive capped by Manziel's 7-yard run with 5:49 left in the first quarter to make it 14-0.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 The Eagle (Bryan, Texas) Visit The Eagle (Bryan, Texas) at .theeagle.com Distributed by MCT Information Services文件倉

【專訪】潮服零售商包浩斯（483）的老闆黃銳林，迷你倉七個月前毅然把一頭留了20年的披肩長髮剪掉，刮淨鬍鬚，由「頹廢look」變回行政人員模樣。他不是失戀，亦沒有找風水佬指點迷津，他是想身體力行告訴大家：過往功業不值得留戀，沒有甚麼不可以捨棄。他希望在55歲之年，仍能推倒重來，冒險改革：「時代唔同�，我唔想做下一間柯達、Nokia。今時今日做零售如果唔改革，只會被慢慢陰乾。」記者：吳綺慧近年快速時裝（Fast Fashion）與網購盛行，兩者同樣是以反應快、操作靈活取勝，起貨時間最快可達15至20日。反觀傳統零售商，六個月前就要已預定好下一季的貨品，競爭力「輸一大截」。設計至上架縮至一個月原本已經跌入「comfort zone」的黃銳林，面對新時代轉變，或可選擇「隻眼開、隻眼閉」。但前年Bauhaus（包浩斯）業績欠佳，發佈會上記者質疑他為何跑輸同業，黃銳林屬性情中人，即起身鞠躬道歉。這事件燃起了他要全面改革的決心。「我冇理由咁衰仔�？我一係就退休，唔好�到搞搞震，尸位素餐；如果唔係，我就有責任搞返好佢。我想畀個機會自己，我唔想下年又走出來道歉。」為求變，黃銳林先裁掉三分之一員工，把他認為難以推動的人「請走」，然後�手改革，把製作流程推倒重來，將自家品牌產品lead time（由設計至上架銷售的過程）由以往的半年，縮短至平均一至兩個月。黃銳林指，要轉型至更貼近快速文件倉裝模式，最困難是要解決物料供應環節，因香港公司規模太細，採購上難如國際品牌般具有規模效益：「如等到你想設計一件豹紋衫時、才再去落order織布的話，就已經太遲喇，所以平時要先鎖定一些物料供應。但點樣可儲定原料、又唔浪費，有一定難度。」黃銳林坦言現時供應鏈改革仍處學習階段，難與國際品牌比擬。公司另一改革方向，是希望把以往模糊了品牌定位修正，尋回自己優勢。如其自家品牌Salad，去年就由賣衫，改為主力賣手袋。「衫真係太多競爭喇！反而手袋�環境最差的時候，幾千蚊一個都仲賣得幾好，先發現原來市場有需求，是以往忽略�。」主攻手袋銷售額倍升去年Bauhaus首個電視廣告，選擇用來宣傳手袋。黃銳林笑言廣告「充滿了計算」，把芝娃娃小狗放進手袋中拍攝：「�女客人唔記得個袋，都記得隻狗，入來舖頭說要搵『狗仔袋』。」現時Salad的手袋及小皮件種類，已由以往20、30項，增至現時逾200項，銷售額按年急升逾倍，佔Salad的銷售比重由去年不多於20%，提升至現時的60%。創業至今22年，黃銳林形容自己曾一度失去了「�團火」：「只想穩陣，每年只識睇住個銷售數字做人。黑、啡色皮褸最好賣？咁下年都做返呢�款啦！慢慢就每季都得幾個款，成盤貨都係『舊�』。」黃銳林希望，今次改革除了可幫Bauhaus重新上路外，亦可找回自己當年創業的「勇氣和任性」：「真正做返多�自己真心鍾意、相信的事物。」 存倉

Source: St.self storage Louis Post-DispatchSept. 21--JEFFERSON CITY --Across the country, states are featuring celebrities, quirky songs and football game-day ads to promote the Oct. 1 debut of the online health insurance exchanges.Minnesota's multimillion-dollar campaign, for example, stars Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox in zany situations in which the lumberjack unexpectedly needs medical attention -- and health insurance.It's been much quieter in Missouri.A coalition of health care providers, community groups and faith-based organizations will try to get the word out this fall to the more than 800,000 uninsured Missourians.Their message: "Using the Missouri Health Insurance Marketplace is Easy!" declares a glossy handout prepared for the Cover Missouri coalition.The decidedly low-profile campaign here stems from state voters' overwhelming passage last year of a law barring the governor from setting up an insurance exchange without legislative or voter approval. As a result of that vote, Democratic Gov. Jay Nixon has adopted a hands-off stance on the divisive issue and the federal government will operate Missouri's online marketplace.Despite the lack of catchy slogans, people are starting to pay attention, said Stephene Moore, regional director for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services office in Kansas City. She and her staff have been talking to groups about the federal Affordable Care Act since Congress passed the landmark law three years ago."A lot of the time I joke with people, 'How many of you waited to do your taxes or your Christmas shopping?' People tend to wait" until the last minute, she said.Officials are stressing that the enrollment period runs through March and that there's plenty of time to figure out the various health plans, which have yet to be unveiled in Missouri or Illinois."It's not a sprint on Oct. 1," said Mike Claffey, who works in the Illinois governor's office and is the state's spokesman on the health care issue. "It's a longer race to the finish line."Beginning next year, most people will owe a penalty if they don't have insurance through a job-sponsored plan, another private plan or a public plan such as Medicaid or Medicare.That's the crux of the individual mandate, the keystone of the Affordable Care Act. The mandate aims to create a broad pool of insured people -- especially healthy people ages 18 to 34 who need less care.That group is dubbed the "young invincibles" because they tend to think they won't get sick. In Missouri and Illinois, an estimated 25 percent of young adults are uninsured."Obviously, with this new system, you want a lot of people in the system, to help subsidize the cost impact with everybody carrying insurance," said David Smith, a lobbyist for Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield of Missouri, which plans to sell insurance in the Missouri exchange."At the end of the day, you've got the healthy population that's going to subsidize the unhealthy population," Smith said.Once the exchange opens, Missourians who are uninsured or lack affordable coverage at work can go to the website, healthcare.gov, to compare health plans and buy one, often with a federal subsidy.The process is slightly different in Illinois, which is partnering with the federal government to set up an exchange. Illinois will have its own "landing page," where people can start the application process. That website has not yet been announced but can be found on Oct. 1 by going to the main state page, .illinois.gov.The landing page will ask Illinois consumers to type in basic data such as income and family size. Based on that information, they will be directed either to a site to apply for Medicaid, the public program for the poor, or to the federally run marketplace to buy private insurance.Illinois expanded Medicaid to cover an additional 200,000 people next year, as the federal law envisioned.Missouri's Republican-controlled Legislature rejected the Medicaid expansion, leaving an estimated 226,525 people below the poverty line in a coverage gap, without subsidized insurance. Legislators may re-examine the eligibility issue next year as part of a bill revamping the program to make it more cost-efficient.In the meantime, health care advocates are encouraging uninsured consumers to set up accounts on the healthcare.gov website and learn the basics about shopping for insurance. There are application checklists, insurance cost calculators, live chats and links galore on the site.but what will it cost?What's still missing is the most important detail: price.Neither the Illinois nor the Missouri exchange has released how much the plans will cost. Officials will say only that the premiums and other details will be posted on or by Oct. 1.How much one-on-one assistance will be available to help consumers sort out the options depends on the type of exchange a state is using. The bottom line: Missouri is getting much less federal money for such efforts than Illinois.The Affordable Care Act earmarked a large pool of money for states that set up their own exchanges or partnered with the federal government on outreach.Sixteen states and the District of Columbia are building their own exchanges. Seven states -- including Illinois -- are partnering with the federal government.Illinois received $115 million for outreach and marketing. About $33 million of the money went to St. Louis-based FleishmanHillard to design an advertising campaign, whic迷你倉 has not been unveiled.More than $36 million went to community groups in Illinois that will help people enroll.By contrast, Missouri -- one of 27 states that ceded control of its exchange to the federal government -- received $4.74 million for outreach. Most of that money went to community health centers to hire 59 insurance counselors.To bolster those efforts, the Missouri Foundation for Health, a St. Louis-based nonprofit agency, provided $5 million in grants to community organizations that will hire counselors. Once the exchange is running, you can find the locations of the counselors listed at .covermissouri.org.Even so, the foundation says counselors will be hard-pressed to handle the workload."We're going to need volunteers in Missouri," said Ryan Barker, the foundation's vice president for health policy.The foundation is spending $1.8 million on marketing, and $1.7 million of that went to FleishmanHillard to shape a public relations campaign. It will rev up after the enrollment period begins.In addition to the FleishmanHillard campaign, Missourians also will see some targeted radio and digital ads for the exchange this fall under a contract that the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services signed with the public relations firm Weber Shandwick."It certainly is hard when there are still outstanding questions" about what the plans will cost, said Cynthia McCafferty of FleishmanHillard. "Right now, we can't answer questions about, what are the costs of the plans. Certainly there are challenges but there are always challenges, so you just work with it."The biggest challenge: Polls have found that most people remain wary of the 2010 health care law. A June Gallup poll found 52 percent of respondents surveyed nationally disapproved of it. On Friday, the U.S. House voted to defund the law.SUBSIDIES, PENALTIESAgainst that backdrop, supporters say their best weapon is broader public understanding of the complex law.The plans on the exchange will offer at least 10 essential benefits, including doctor visits, prescription drugs and hospitalization.They will be grouped in four tiers -- bronze, silver, gold and platinum -- that vary based on cost. For example, with a bronze plan, a consumer will pay a lower monthly premium but a higher share of the costs when care is received.Bronze plans will pay about 60 percent of the costs after premiums. At the other end of the scale, platinum will pay 90 percent of costs."Consumers are going to have a pretty wide array of choices to buy the coverage that fits their budget," said Nanette Foster Reilly, a senior official in the regional office of the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services in Kansas City.Most people who use the exchange are likely to be eligible for tax credits that will cover a considerable share of the cost for monthly premiums.The credits will go to people who make between 100 percent and 400 percent of the federal poverty level -- for example, between $23,550 and $94,200 for a family of four.To see if they're eligible for subsidies, consumers will plug in an estimate of their 2014 income, which will be cross-checked through a federal data hub linked to the IRS, Homeland Security and other agencies.The verification will occur "in near-real time," said Foster Reilly. If there are discrepancies that can't be resolved, the consumer will get a list of items to check, she said.Applicants also will automatically be screened for eligibility for Medicaid. If their income is below the state's threshold, the exchange is supposed to electronically send the applicant's information to the Medicaid portal.Though Missouri didn't expand Medicaid, many children are already eligible but not enrolled. When their parents use the exchange, the state has estimated that an additional 24,617 children will wind up on the Medicaid rolls.The enrollment period for the exchange runs through March 31. Coverage will begin as soon as Jan. 1 for those who enroll by Dec. 15."There's been a lot of emphasis on Oct. 1 as the launch date," said Claffey, the spokesman for the Illinois exchange. "We are emphasizing that it's really a 2 1/2 -month enrollment period if you're looking for coverage on Jan. 1."The penalty for not having coverage starts out fairly low -- $95 per adult and $47.50 per child, or 1 percent of family income, whichever is greater -- with the fees growing in subsequent years.Some people will be exempted from the penalty. For example, there's no fine if your family income is below the threshold for filing a tax return -- $10,000 per person or $20,000 for a couple -- or if you would have been eligible for the expanded Medicaid program but you live in a state such as Missouri that did not adopt the expansion.One section of the exchange will be geared to small businesses. The goal of the Small Business Health Options program, or SHOP exchange, is to give smaller employers the same kind of volume discounts that large employers enjoy, reducing the impact on rates that one worker with high medical costs can cause.While officials say the exchange will be ready on time, the software was still being tested this month, so no one is certain how smoothly it will run until it launches."I'm waiting to see them flip the switch," said Smith, the insurance lobbyist.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 the St. Louis Post-Dispatch Visit the St. Louis Post-Dispatch at .stltoday.com Distributed by MCT Information Services文件倉

ADOBE SYSTEMS執行長納拉研（SHANTANU NARAYEN）帶領公司進行大幅度的轉型，自存倉同時拓展事業範圍，讓業務重心從主流的盒裝軟體走向雲端服務，即便面對外界的質疑和批評，仍然勇往直前。安靜低調 競爭力十足納拉研2007年12月接任ADOBE執行長以來，便領導公司進行一連串的改革。納拉研的同事表示，他雖然安靜低調，不過競爭力十足。ADOBE與蘋果為長期的合作夥伴，但蘋果前執行長賈伯斯卻拒絕ADOBE的FLASH進入IPHONE和IPAD，並在2010年引爆一場口水戰，讓ADOBE登上媒體版面。回憶此事，個性溫和沈穩的納拉研表示，「賈伯斯是一個富有遠見的人，但我們在某些業務上意見不同。」被問到今日ADOBE與蘋果的關係時，納拉研表示，雙方仍就少數產品進行合作，但是「互動已經不如以往熱絡。」和賈伯斯一樣 洞析趨勢納拉研也和賈伯斯一樣，在技術引領潮流之前，就已洞析市場趨勢。當攝影師還依賴軟片照像，且數位像機還不普及時，納拉研與友人共同創立網路數位影像分享軟體公司PICTRA。納拉研執掌兵符後公司運勢快速走下坡，上任15個月內股價便重挫60％，暴跌至6年新低的17美元。這項危機促使納拉研加速改造公司，今日的ADOBE幾乎看不到1980年代時期桌上排版先驅的影子。2012年ADOBE新的行銷業務成為外界目光焦點，該部門營收成長16％至11億美元，占公司總營收的四分之一強。名為「ADOBE行銷雲端」的產品協助廣告客戶追蹤衡量數位廣告活動。行銷業務源自於2009年以18億美元收購網路分析軟體業者OMNITURE，該交易遠超出ADOBE的傳統業務範圍之外，納拉研說服董事會收購OMNITURE是必要之舉。宣布停止銷售盒裝迷你倉體今年ADOBE有更多的變革而且充滿爭議，該公司最新的盒裝軟體CREATIVE SUITE在去年5月上市，1年就為ADOBE帶來約20億美元營收。該公司宣布停止銷售盒裝軟體，遭抨擊是自斷財源。然而納拉研清楚明白，由強項展開改革好過從弱點開始。ADOBE的核心產品現在都採訂閱制，該公司稱其為「創意雲端」（CREATIVECLOUD），包含PHOTOSHOP、ILLUSTRATOR、INDESIGN和DREAMWEAVER等知名軟體。納拉研表示，「ADOBE的桌面軟體在業界有口皆碑，這的確令人高興，但我們不能一直在原地踏步。」轉型營收銳減 堅持信心即便公司轉型將讓ADOBE今年的營收減少7億美元，每股盈餘恐減少1.2美元，但納拉研仍不退縮，他表示，「我的內心沒有疑慮，這是追求大環境創新的正確道路。」納拉研表示，訂閱制可讓公司進行或大或小的更新，而且能及時向客戶發布。訂閱收入可望在2016年前取代零售盒裝軟體收入，直接面對消費者的銷售模式，將比傳統的模式獲利更高。ADOBE的前執行長奇真（BRUCE CHIZEN）表示，「納拉研所做的都是對客戶有益的事，我們也只能硬著頭皮勇往直前，並且找到穩定營收的方法。」不過奇真打趣道，「我很高興我不是做這項決定的人。」華爾街以行動支持轉型華爾街也以行動支持ADOBE，過去2年來該公司的股價飛漲101％，直近期的46美元。ADOBE的董事會成員羅森史維格（DAN ROSENSWEIG）表示，在矽谷高階領導人中，納拉研並未得到應有的讚譽。他將納拉研和EBAY執行長唐納修（JOHN DONAHOE）歸為同一類，都是在公司強盛卻需要新方向的時候進入公司，「他們創造出矽谷史上最傑出的企業轉型。」迷你倉

9月20日，迷你倉第三屆“相約長沙最美鄉村”活動走進長沙縣 梨，與數萬市民、遊客一起逛陶公廟會、趕鄉村大集、參觀農產品加工企業，零距離感受水鄉古鎮的歲月巨變。 朗 木現場表演的《劉海砍樵》引來觀�一片叫好。登行臨湘山，在巍峨古剎、軒昂棟宇間觸摸千年歲月的厚重沉毅，品讀歷史古鎮的文化之美；樂游“開心農場”，在碧壟綿延、果蔬清香里採摘農家之趣，感受現代鄉村的產業之美；逛場陶公廟廟會，在熙攘人群、繁興百藝中當回趕集人，拾獲市井民俗的傳承之美。前日，“相約長沙最美鄉村”活動走進長沙縣 梨，與數萬市民一起逛古鎮、游水鄉、趕大集，市民們看不夠贊不完：“這就是我們心中的最美！”古韻如畫博友一路發帖贊古鎮“呀，真像一幅淡雅脫俗的水墨畫！”從長沙中心城區行車30分鐘，就到達了街道。沿路行進，一棟棟白牆黛瓦、灰簷木窗的民居小樓躍入眼簾，古韻悠長、清雅質樸，如同一幅徐徐展開的水墨畫軸，吸引著讀者們迫不及待就要下車，步行當回“畫中人”。從仿古長街中穿行而過，千年古鎮這幅畫軸中最濃墨重彩的一筆——陶公廟便近在眼前。“據史書記載，晉太尉陶侃之孫陶淡與其侄結廬臨湘山，後來叔侄偕隱于此。士民仰其清名盛德，故立此廟祀之。”街道工作人員的敘史，讓千年古剎倍添厚重，更吸引著市民們不覺加快腳步。即便穿越了千多年風雨，陶公廟依然巍峨軒昂，遠觀飛簷四挑、近看飛閣流丹，而其所在的臨湘山狀如仰天獅子，山畔更有瀏陽河碧波環繞，引得市民趕緊拿起手機拍個不停。登石級、穿山門、觀正殿，作家謝浮名不禁感嘆山水俊美，更感慨如同經歷一次“穿越”：“歷史的光影在這裡有了落腳點，千年歲月也變得具象起來。”而位於廟內的古戲台，則讓湖南教育報刊社編審黃耀紅圍著轉個不停：“長沙第一戲樓早有耳聞，沒料到其建築特色、文化底蘊同樣出眾。”細細品讀了戲樓上所雕戲文和對聯後，黃耀紅贊聲不斷。觸摸800歲古樟，感受歲月滄桑與生命堅強；行步詩詞長廊，品讀湖南“詩詞之鄉”的文化魅力，時不時還冒出幾句詩文作為應和……自然人文風情接踵入懷，市民代表們的微博也一條接一條，“發再多也說不盡她的美，還是實地一游最愜意。”一位市民更向其粉絲發出邀約。廟會歡騰趕大集人頭攢動萬人聚在長沙城區里，你或許已難見這樣的場景：熙熙攘攘的集市上，老鄉們擺開的攤點一個緊挨一個，耳中有熱騰吆喝，眼裡是龍獅齊舞，在街角一轉身，你或許還能撞見一個捏糖人的民俗小攤，安靜展示著手藝。“哇，好紅火的廟會！”剛感受完自然人文的靜美，市民們就一頭撞入了陶公廟廟會的熱鬧里。由於陰曆正月十三與八月十七是陶公叔侄的生日，因而每到這兩個吉日，陶公廟都要舉行聲勢浩大的廟會。“兩位陶公過生日，人頭攢動萬人聚，陶公廟里唱大戲，有獅子、有龍燈，地花鼓配蚌殼精……”77歲的當地老人杜強國，曾用這樣一段《梨情趣》描繪出廟會的熱鬧，中秋小長假前來遊玩的市民團，也幸運趕上了趟。糖油粑粑、龍脂豬血，特色美食香氣襲人；服飾攤點、日用百貨，穿用玩樣樣皆有。廟會上的攤點包羅萬象，還有老鄉帶著自家產的物品前來，一個小背簍背在身，走走逛逛，賣物趕集兩不誤。不過最新鮮的當屬那些個民俗小攤：幾塊彩色的糖面，拿捏兩下就成了喜羊羊、孫悟空；一把�亮的小勺，在大理石板上飛舞，麥芽糖便變成了栩栩如生的飛禽走獸……這些平時難得一見的傳統手藝，不僅讓市民們看得挪不開步，更忍不住伸手學做一把。“一年兩次的大集當然得全家出動，我們8點不到就來啦！”當地居民謝純糧一家忍不住向記者曬起“成果”：老父母趕著去香火旺盛的陶公廟還願，孩子的玩具、老婆的新衣在集市上都得到滿足，至於自己，“想吃的要買的都搞定了，說不定過兩天這裡還有羅漢舞、龍獅舞看，到時再來逛！”產業蝶變“開心農場”內品田園食味“千年古鎮”之美，不僅美在自然美在人文，近年來依托區位優勢實現經濟轉型升級，當地蝶變為產業新區，走進工廠車間、步入田間菜園，撲面而來的產業新景、生態之美同樣讓市民沉醉。一排排藤架綿延舒展，黃色、紫色的花朵下藏著絲瓜、扁豆等鮮嫩菜蔬；一頃頃青翠菜田整齊排列，上海青、小白菜長勢喜人。一走進金晨蔬菜基地，平日里沒少在QQ菜園里“偷菜”的市民便歡呼起來，卷起褲腳走進菜地瓜棚，親手摘下的小黃瓜隨手在衣服上擦擦就塞進了嘴中，“好甜”的贊聲此起彼伏。當得知這處現實版的“開心農場”種植蔬菜3186余畝，直接帶動2000余戶農戶增收，是當地發展綠色生態產業的一塊“樣本田”時，大伙紛紛豎起大拇指。迷你倉前提起該街道，人們立刻會想起“全國汽配之鄉”，80余家汽配企業在此聚集，其中不乏廣汽菲亞特、德國大�、北汽福田等業內大腕。如今，依托一個個產業基地，街道已從單一的汽車零配件產業步入工程機械和汽車零配件、電子科技、生物醫藥、農產品加工等多元發展之路。“平時沒少買好韻味的調料，如今親眼見證了安全食品如何誕生，更覺放心！”走進好韻味的生產車間，在家常和鍋碗瓢盆打交道的市民羅彩雲，和其他幾位“煮婦”看得格外認真，目睹一桶桶用菜籽壓榨出的原油，經過濾、脫皂、脫酸等系列流程變成一級食用油，羅彩雲連稱“不虛此行”。“鶴鹿竟相依，仰晉代風流，處處煙波新歲月”，一路賞景一路感悟，陶公廟內的這句詩聯或許最能代表市民心聲：古鎮之美，穿越魏晉古風，美在當代。美麗明天三大規劃構建“生態夢”“根據‘老區造型提品質、新區造景建新城、整體造城融一體’的發展思路，我們將廣泛汲取國內先進的設計理念和設計手段，高起點、高層次、高水平進行改造！”昨日， 梨街道黨工委書記蔡逸表示，未來，將通過水環境治理、老鎮區提質改造、機場高速以南新城區建設，著力打造“活力、誠信、生態、文化、和諧”的新街道。水環境綜合治理將探索“變水患為水福，變防汛為看景”治理模式，計劃投入8億元，完成瀏陽河防洪工程，治澇工程，水質保障工程、生態修復及生態景觀工程。以“點”帶“線”，打造具有獨特風貌的水系網絡和濱水空間，充分發揮生態廊道的邊際效應，營造集生態、休閒、娛樂為一體的生態公園綜合體。老鎮區提質改造在已經完成道路建設的情況下，將�動梨江港商業街建設，以水鄉、廊橋、婚慶為元素，重塑梨江八景；�動老街的立面改造、管線下地、道路提質。將老街打造成特色古街商區，集特色小吃、酒樓、手工藝品、創意設計等於一體，能讓遊客享受特色商業街區帶來的消費和服務。機場高速以南新城區建設將堅持走“創新驅動、綠色低碳、高端切入、開放合作”的新型工業化道路，實現產業從2產業轉向2.5產業及3產業，形成以旅遊和現代服務業、總部經濟等戰略性產業為主導，以居民基本生活配套服務業為補充的綜合產業體系。美麗心情62歲“騎士”：環湘最後一站到古鎮“是最美鄉村讓我們來到這裡！”在活動現場，記者邂逅一群平均年齡超過50歲的“叔叔阿姨自行車隊”，他們騎著山地自行車，不時停下來和美景合照，那份活力讓人頗為羨慕。這些“騎士”是長沙兩家自行車俱樂部的成員，62歲的李世華在隊伍中的資歷最深，在過去的19天里，他完成了環湘騎行的壯舉，韶山、湘潭、邵陽、懷化、常德，都留下了他車轍駛過的痕跡。“前幾天才從岳陽回來，一聽說在這裡有‘相約長沙最美鄉村’活動，特意增加了這一站。”李世華告訴記者，接下來他將繼續騎行到江西萍鄉，而這也意味著他將騎行湖南的最後一站留在了這裡。“風光秀麗、底蘊深厚，民風淳樸，這一次不虛此行，以後我還會常來！”李世華邊說邊向記者做出一個“V”的手勢。美麗文化九曲瀏陽河這裡彎形最美作為“千年古鎮”，有著深厚的文化積澱。九曲瀏陽河，九十九道彎，該街道正好處於其中弧度最大、彎形最美的第七道彎上。臨湘山上，矗立著已有1500餘年的陶公廟，這裡是江南最早的道教宮觀，經過歷史的滄桑洗禮，傳承著當地不變的人文特質。廟中古樓兩邊有一副對聯：“世事何須認真境過追維成夢幻，人生莫以為戲眼前法戒當箴規。”戲台後面，還有一副對聯：“凡是莫當前看戲何如聽戲好，為人須顧後上台終有下台時。”個中哲理，令人深省。特別值得一提的是，其“古樓”二字即由光緒皇帝之師翁同龢親書。廟內共21副楹聯和20多塊匾，皆為名人所著。除了古廟文化，在當地，還有捏糖人、糖油粑粑、臭豆腐、龍脂豬血與藝術剪紙等傳統的美食與手工藝文化。其中，捏糖人已有600多年的歷史，是深受孩子們歡迎的傳統美食工藝之一。糖油粑粑、臭豆腐是長沙傳統名小吃，龍脂豬血俗稱“麻油豬血”，料雖簡單，吃起來卻香脆辛辣，遊客不可錯過。美麗感言作家帥兵：梨江、瀏陽河、陶公廟，一個個名字在陽光下閃耀。千年古鎮，現在有了一顆奔騰的心。作家羅彩霞：我回去要將這次古鎮之行寫成隨筆，也許以後還可以收錄成書。作家黃耀紅：長沙第一戲樓早有耳聞，沒料到其建築特色、文化底蘊同樣出眾。作家周缶工：甜甜蜜蜜的糖油粑粑，在黑鐵鍋里翻滾。兒時的味道，更適合小情侶一人一個對著吃。作家何仁：活動結束，我已變成非洲人。一同回家的還有特色食品和有機蔬菜，當然更有當地人的好客以及晚報工作人員的熱情，謝謝你們！儲存倉

黃帝陵位於黃陵縣縣城北面，迷你倉有「華夏第一陵」美稱，由軒轅廟和黃帝陵兩部分組成，軒轅廟在橋山山麓，黃帝陵則在橋山之巔。景區入口在印台山下，印台山在橋山之南，其形如印，傳說黃帝為鎮壓為害一方的惡虎和惡龍，曾在此埋下了玉璽大印，故稱印台山。 進入景區，是一座寬闊的不對稱半圓型廣場，總面積一萬平方米，地面用5000塊秦嶺天然河卵石鋪砌，遠望猶如一條栩栩如生的魚龍，象徵中華民族五千年的悠久歷史。 廣場北邊是蜿蜒的沮河，沮河古稱「姬水」，軒轅黃帝因「長於姬水」而姓姬，傳說這條河原名「祖河」，當黃帝被召要「御龍飛升」回天宮時，群臣先民依依不捨，眼淚從橋山之巔淌流下來，流入了「祖河」。 儲存倉石質台階九五之尊 橋山與印台山之間的一段沮河，因在印台山下，又稱為「印池」，寓意為黃帝用印之水。印池上橫跨一座通往北岸軒轅廟的軒轅橋，軒轅橋為仿灞河古礅樑橋，橋體全部採用花崗岩，由121根石梁鋪砌而成。 軒轅橋北端即橋北廣場，與軒轅廟的龍尾道相連接，面積1584平方米，地面用花崗岩鋪砌。廣場上聳立四根高4.8米的花崗岩望柱，是黃帝陵廟前區標誌之一。軒轅廟廟前的龍尾道，共設95級石質台階，經五個踏步組逐級登高，寓意黃帝「九五之尊」，至高無上。 軒轅廟廟門位於廟軸線上，為仿漢風格的石質建築，4.8米高的18根柱子為花崗岩整條石。廟門台基比廟前廣場高出2.72米。 作者：老古迷你倉

　李明浩對自動售賣機的興趣緣起於對遊戲機商業模型的�迷。「在遊戲機上，儲存玩夠一定分數，它會自動送你過下一關，還會返給你點券可以兌換禮品。我的靈感就是這個模型。」李明浩認為利用這個模型做產品，用戶可能獲得更多免費資源，而不耗費成本。他認為最適合這個模型的就是自動售賣機。同時，和王濱一樣，李明浩也是互聯網人，從新浪到中國移動，學電子出身的他一直在互聯網領域研習。因此李對自動售賣機的理解也並非站在傳統零售市場維度上。2010年底，王濱如約看到李手工打造的新一代自動售賣機概念機，並決定投入500萬元人民幣與李創辦了友寶。撬動B、C點需求「最終打動我的是3G模塊，自動售賣機一旦聯網，加上一塊屏幕能做的事情就太多了。」王濱坦言。不過，這不像互聯網項目可以輕鬆獲得百萬用戶，自動售賣機是自下而上，真正實現規模發揮互聯網的效用，需要有漫長而艱難的過程去一一佈點。業內按照銷售額把點位分為ABC三類，例如勞動密集型的工廠就是第一類，擁有固定消費人群且封閉式場所，如大學就是B類，寫字樓、經濟型酒店、地鐵站等公共場所就是C類。經歷近五年的競爭，A類點位早已被「佔滿」，剩下的不是較難發現就是難以進入，留給後來者的多數是C類點位。李明浩的計劃是首先用最穩定的機器和產品佔據市場，之後用「秘密武器」撬動B和C點位的需求。這個秘密武器正是調試中的冷鏈和熱鏈設備，迷你倉寶已開始在部分寫字樓售賣永和大王、真功夫等製作的盒飯，每天線上供應的品牌有五六家，便當種類更是超過60種。李明浩告訴記者，今年冬季來臨前，熱鏈設備將會完成量產，進駐寫字樓。而冷鏈設備如果可以穩定運行，也會為友寶打開酸奶、水果甚至涼皮等餐飲市場。在支付環節，友寶已打通在線支付，並成為微信支付第一批客戶，他們還與支付寶一起利用超聲波技術研發出離線支付。目前，友寶正和移動運營商、銀行、航空公司接洽積分兌換業務，希望打通一個客戶積分兌換渠道，用戶可以用其他機構的商城積分在友寶界面上購買貨品。借力移動支付友寶也是第一個實現「盒子」概念的企業，用戶用積分購買的商品可以在最近地鐵站的盒子中取到貨物。在傳統概念中，由於地鐵站租金高，人群停留時間短，除營銷廣告價值，自動售賣機在其中很少能實現銷售盈利，而友寶則希望通過積分兌換業務激活C點位的零售功能。自動售賣機能夠連接用戶手機，刺激用戶使用移動支付是李明浩最想看到的，他今年的目標之一就是在線業務實現盈利，廣告收入超過2,000萬元人民幣。 「過去的一段時間，我們實際在做減法。」王濱告訴記者，在他們的設備上買電影票、繳費充值都可以實現，但是他們必須選擇一個最適合友寶的戰略方向。這個重金打造的傳統終端更像是互聯網的實體「入口」，他究竟何時能實現線上業務的盈利，李明浩透露年內或可見分曉。整合/記者 徐琳mini storage

　　■收藏周刊記者 趙旭虹　　記者日記　　7月份結束了世界巡迴展澳大利亞之行後，迷你倉8月底，許鴻飛又帶著他的“肥女人”西徵了，並直接插進文藝復興的心臟地區———意大利的西西里和托斯卡納。從8月29日至9月9日，本刊記者與來自上海、廣州兩地的十多位媒體同行，以及評論家、策展人、專業攝影師等組成的35人隨團人員，見證了其中盛況。　　讓記者印象最深刻的是當地各界對這位中國雕塑家的熱情，並給予了他最高禮遇。禮樂歡迎奏兩國國歌、市長親自主持、警車開道、市長夫人兒女全程陪同參觀當地名勝、當地著名藝術家評論家參與座談交流並給予高度評價、百年酒窖里設宴款待、市民爭相與許鴻飛和他的“肥女人”合影、國家電視台重點報道———本刊記者以日記文本的形式，將其中的精彩一一呈現。　　8月29日　　代表團抵達西西里大區卡塔尼亞（Catania）省扎菲讓那埃特納(Zafferana Etnea)市。這是位於西西里東部的城市，寧靜典雅，著名的卡塔尼亞Etna火山就在這裡。　　8月30日　　11:00,在市政大樓的議會大廳舉行記者招待會。參加人員主要有：藝術家許鴻飛、廣州市文廣新局副局長梁正祥、Zafferana Etnea市長 Alfio Russo、Catania美術學院經理Antonio Portale教授、當地策展人Lucia Cavallaro以及當地主要媒體。市長Alfio Russo用意大利人特有的感性表達了他的熱情和喜悅：許鴻飛將意大利巡迴站的第一站放在此，這讓他感覺在做夢。　　展覽在兩個地方同時舉行，15件大的雕塑放在市政廳廣場，另外25件小型的架上雕塑放在市政大樓的議會大廳。這是第一位中國雕塑家在當地舉行展覽。　　24:00，開始擺雕塑，此地溫差極大，白天二十七八攝氏度，晚上只有10攝氏左右。市長陪同許鴻飛布展至結束。　　8月31日　　吃早餐時，許鴻飛忽生靈感，要將兩件雕塑帶上Etna火山山頂。Etna火山山頂寒氣刺骨，人們都穿上了租來的羽絨大衣，而我等乾脆躲在山頂的小木屋里取暖。只穿襯衣和西裝的許鴻飛舉著他的《溜》、《歡樂》 和《肥騎》，站在這座歐洲最高的活火山山頂，任由攝影師指揮擺著不同的“莆士”拍照，挺拔自若，真是“場面動（凍）人”。　　18:00，在市政大樓議會大廳舉行正式歡迎會。市政大樓掛起了中意兩國國旗，儀仗隊奏起兩國國歌，隨後舉行開幕酒會。我們幾位媒體同行就坐在市長辦公室的沙發上翻書看，還跟進來看展覽的市民聊天。市民們可以隨意進入，連市長的辦公室也不例外。感覺市政大樓議會大廳就是全市人民的客廳，好隨意。　　20:00，許鴻飛雕塑巡迴展“意大利西西里的陽光”正式在市政廳廣場拉開帷幕。這裡面朝大海，旁依教堂，背鄰市政廳，遠眺Etna火山，是Zafferana Etnea市的中心。許鴻飛雕塑展的消息似乎早已街知巷聞，因為我們在沿路的街道、商舖、吃飯的餐廳都看到印刷精美的海報或宣傳單張。今天剛好是周六，市民們或結伴、或攜家人來到廣場參觀，有的在細看，有的在與雕塑玩模仿秀，有的在爭著和許鴻飛拍照，感覺很high。晚宴上，還放起了歡迎的焰火。　　9月1日　　10:30，由Catania美術學院雕塑系在Umberto廣場舉行主題為露天工作室的現場火山石雕塑現場創作。許鴻飛與創作者進行藝術交流。　　19:00，在市政大樓議會大廳，播放了記錄許鴻飛創作和在北京及澳大利亞展覽的短片。結束後，在市政廳一樓舉行了當地一位意大利畫家的中國水墨畫展，他原來畫油畫，三年前接觸到中國水墨畫竟然迷戀上了儲存近三年每天用兩個小時練習中國畫，從展覽看還畫得有板有眼。許鴻飛給他的建議是少臨摹多創作。　　9月3日　　18:00，許鴻飛與Catania美術學院師生在市政廳進行交流。有學生提問：如何有自己的風格？許鴻飛說：“以前自己也做‘瘦女人’，古典的也做得很好，但問題是世界上有更多的人比你做得更好。做肖像做得再像也是技術層面的，很多人都能做，但沒有你的風格，只能叫技術，不能叫藝術。我做了‘肥女人’後，起碼，大家看到‘肥女人’雕塑，都會不自覺地想到許鴻飛。所以說，藝術要有你創造性的風格。”　　9月5日　　今天是我們在Zafferana Etnea市的最後一天，許鴻飛把作品《肥騎》捐贈給當地市政府，市長回饋了繡有市徽的錦旗等紀念品等，Zafferana Etnea市長擬請許鴻飛做榮譽市民。該市新建的圖書館，該市長擬以許鴻飛名字命名，許鴻飛承諾，若建成將捐贈一批國內圖書。市長直言，目前正處於經濟不振的意大利，許鴻飛一行的到來給他們帶來了夢想。　　告別晚宴結束後，市長又要帶我們去吃雪糕，熱情無比的意大利人！　　9月6日　　21:30，誤點，放下行李就直奔蒙特普齊亞諾市的一座有數百年曆史的Cantina Gattavecchi酒窖，好幾位當地的主要文化官員早已恭候多時。熱情的酒窖主把最好的紅酒拿出來讓大家分享。主貴賓分別致辭，其中一位當地圖書館館長，用帶著意大利口音的普通話說：“在我們看來，藝術品非奢侈品而是必需品。”　　9月7日　　8:00,晨起到蒙特普齊亞諾市廣場布展，當地的文化局局長Cristina Scaletti已一早來現場協助。蒙特普齊亞諾市是座有上千年曆史的山城，裡面散落著不少數百年的教堂、酒窖、城堡等古建築，厚重的歷史仿佛觸手可及。廣場位於山頂，古老的市政廳、數百年曆史的教堂和老建築矗立四周，這裡所有建築的牆面不少已剝落，石頭也現出班駁的痕跡，晨曦給它們鍍上一層溫暖的金色，美極了。　　許鴻飛的蒙特普齊亞諾展也是分兩個地方，5件大的雕塑放在廣場，20多件架上雕塑放進城堡美術館里。　　在廣場上，當地市民穿起隆重的民族服裝鳴鼓吹奏，列隊歡迎。　　9月10日　　6:00，我們坐車前往羅馬機場回國，而許鴻飛帶著他的助手和隨身攝影師、攝像師前往都靈和佛羅倫薩參觀。　　9月9日　　9:00，許鴻飛一早坐在廣場邊的咖啡館喝咖啡，忽然，廣場來了一大群西歐的觀光客，看到或憨厚、或俏皮、或生猛、或柔情的“肥女人”站在廣場上，很是驚喜，他們遠觀、近摸、合照，顯得興奮異常，當得知作者在現場，就紛紛圍上來求簽名拍照，連聲說可愛和有趣。由於疏忽，作品說明上只有作者名和作品名，並沒有寫國家和地區。因此，他們一度還把許鴻飛誤認為日本人。許鴻飛對此很感慨，他說，中國的藝術家喜歡窩里鬥，還以為自己很牛，是不是真的有實力，走出去就知道了。　　隨後，許鴻飛來到當地的紅酒協會拜訪。11月份，由市長帶隊，該協會將組織由當地10多個葡萄莊主組成的代表團首次出訪北京、上海和廣州。廣州站的意大利葡萄酒品鑒會就選在許鴻飛的石磨坊舉行，並將帶來一批意大利藝術家的藝術品在此展覽。許鴻飛與該協會主要負責人商定具體事項。　　9月8日　　17:00,在城堡與當地藝術家見面座談。當地一位雕塑家表示，雕塑創造了一個空間讓我們停下來想想，而許鴻飛的雕塑創造的是一個真善美的空間，讓心靈得到放鬆。Cristina Scaletti局長則表示，許鴻飛的雕塑形象簡單卻有豐富的內涵，給當地市民帶來微笑。許鴻飛邀請當地雕塑家來中國交流展覽。趙旭虹迷你倉

Source: Pittsburgh Post-GazetteSept.self storage 21--Labrador retrievers and other big dogs joyfully plunged into the pool in Crafton Park and took long, sure strokes to swim endless laps in the deep end at the first Doggie Paddle last Sunday.A miniature poodle named Lucy daintily waded into the shallow end, wagged her tail and walked around, greeting and meeting other dogs and their people. After a rather brief dip, she got out, dried off and donned a peachy-orange sweater with brown trim.For the next two hours Lucy sedately trotted around on the paved pool deck and the grassy beach area. The 9-pound dog was not the least bit intimidated by the 105 other dogs whose owners paid $10 for their dogs to swim, run and raise money for renovations to the 60-year-old pool.Although she's not much of a swimmer, Lucy has come a long way from a horrific beginning. In February 2010, she was one of 30 dogs rescued from a small unheated trailer in Greene County. Some dogs had wounds from fighting each other, and others had died. The dogs were rescued by the Humane Society of Greene County, and Animal Friends took 12 of them to their Ohio Township shelter.On Feb. 20, 2010, Pam Palchowski of Crafton and her daughter, Angela, then 15, went to Animal Friends looking for a little dog that would enjoy cuddling with them. A shy little poodle that volunteers had named Taquitos was brought out to meet them. Because her long apricot hair had been a solid matted mess when she was taken out of the trailer, the dog was basically bald, A complete shave-down was the only thing a groomer could do to make her look and feel better. Shelter workers thought she was 9 or 10 years old.Taquitos snuggled into Angela's lap, who gave her a new name, Lucy. The adoption was approved after a successful meeting with her father, Steve, and the family's Chow-Chow/shepherd mix, Biscuit.Rescuers warned that the "trailer dogs" might have psychological problems that could never be overcome, but Lucy settled in quickly. With love and patient socialization, she overcame years of poor care and neglect.Some dogs don't enjoy gatherings of large numbers of dogs and people -- even ones that have been loved and well cared for all of their lives. But Lucy clearly enjoyed it all and romped like a dog much younger."Why is she wearing Cleveland Browns colors?" a friend asked."It complements her apricot color and brings out her eyes," Mrs. Palchowski joked.For the record, Lucy has a Steelers jersey and many sweaters and outfits; she needs them to stay warm.迷你倉og lovers who have never seen large numbers of dogs swimming in public pools should mark their calendars for the next ones, including Labor Day swims at Dormont Pool and Mineral Beach in Finleyville. A number of people always show up without dogs because it's so much fun to watch. The Crafton Paddle will be held next year, perhaps on the weekend after Labor Day, said Jamie Beechey, director of borough services.A black Labrador retriever took a break from swimming and trotted over to the concession stand where volunteer Joanne Beechey was selling hot dogs and soft drinks for people and Milk Bones for dogs. The Lab put his paws on the counter like he belonged there, made eye contact with Mrs. Beechey and wagged his tail. When he didn't score a free treat, he politely returned to the pool.Dozens of pink, yellow and purple balls floated in the water, and dogs cheerfully shared them. Labs and goldens and other retrievers looked totally blissed out as they swam with balls in their mouths, returning them so they could retrieve them again.Miss Sarah, 6, enthusiastically retrieved balls for Ed Hanke of Robinson. A Boykin spaniel -- the breed resembles a cocker spaniel -- she's also a therapy dog and visits VA hospitals.Gladys Carlen walked from her house next door to the pool with Harley, 2, a red miniature dachshund. Although Harley's still in therapy dog training, she already visits hospice patients. After a brief wade in the baby pool, Ms. Carlen put a form-fitting T-shirt on the smooth-haired dog to keep her warm while they socialized.Walk for the animalsThe fourth annual Tails on the Trails Dog Walk is 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. next Saturday at the Harrison Hills Park, Laurel and Broken Branch groves. The event benefits Animal Protectors.The $30 registration fee covers a person and dog in a 1.2-mile walk or a 2-mile walk. Walkers are encouraged to collect pledges from friends and family. Money will also be raised by local vendors, food from Holy Smoke, pet portraits, microchipping and nail clipping.

Source: St.迷你倉 Louis Post-DispatchSept. 21--After one of the many hospital visits Cardinals closer Jason Motte made this summer to see a young friend battling cancer, his wife noticed how little he talked as he strapped their baby daughter into her car seat, how he hesitated when starting the car, how he moved with a different gravity, like he was carrying something new.A purpose can be heavy."When something is weighing on Jason, something inside, he doesn't say too much," said Caitlin Motte, recalling that moment. "He gets real quiet. His body language gives it away. It wasn't a great visit. You could see it weighing on him."It was like something changed in Jason."Motte and his family had spent time that day with Brandt Ballenger, an 8-year-old patient and fast friend who called Jason "Hobo." Brandt had little energy that day and fewer smiles as the cancer or the treatment to attack the cancer had exhausted him. His father, Jeff, said there were times like this, "when things had gone in a direction we didn't want them to go."The phrase itself is part of the coping, referring to cancer treatment like it's a map. As if wrong turns happen and only a little nudge from the GPS is needed to steer back on course and away from the destination no one discusses. Motte sat in the car about to leave the Cardinal Glennon Children's Medical Center parking lot and decided on the direction he had to go.His wife remembers how Jason didn't say much until he said something."I've got to do more."After several months of planning and prodding -- "He heard a lot of 'nos' before he got a 'yes,'" Caitlin said -- the launch of Motte's more arrives Monday with "Strikeout Childhood Cancer" at Busch Stadium. The Cardinals are selling discounted $10 pavilion tickets, $3 of which will go to the Jason Motte Foundation and then directly to St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital to support pediatric cancer research.A total of 5,000 tickets have been held aside at the price; more will be offered if they sell out, an official said. At least 1,000 additional tickets will be given away to children currently in the hospital or recently discharged and their families. For the patients who cannot leave their hospitals, Motte plans to lead several teammates Monday morning on visits to, in his words, "take the game to them."Cardinals community relations director Mark Taylor called the pediatric cancer awareness day at the ballpark "our beta for what this day really could be."This is how a pitcher who cannot pitch spent his summer.Motte, who led the National League with 42 saves in 2012, will not throw an inning for the club this season. A ligament in his right elbow split during spring training, reconstructive surgery followed, and his year was over before it began. Only recently did rehab begin to include lightly tossing an actual baseball. That zeal he had to attack the ninth inning and fire fastballs at 100 mph has been rechanneled.Through chance meetings and social media, he befriended two young boys, Lane Goodwin and Brandt, and became part of their fights against cancer and campaigns for more awareness. The days he would have spent at some faraway ballpark with the Cardinals were instead spent with Brandt, playing Angry Birds, and throwing himself into phone calls and meetings and conversations to "help these families fighting for their children up in the hospital rooms know they're not alone," he said.At spring training, Motte chatted with several reporters about his frayed elbow and his lost season. He mentioned how his faith assured him the injury happened for a reason.He had no idea how right he was."The injury closed one door, but it opened so many others," Motte said. "This has had such a lasting effect on me. I had to make the most of this time. It makes it even more obvious I'm supposed to be doing something else. If you were to say to me, 'Hey, you don't need surgery, you could have 40 saves, do all this stuff and not meet Brandt, not know his family, not learn what I have' -- I would have the surgery all over again."STRIKING OUT CANCERBefore Motte met Brandt, something started with an iPod.Back in 2010, the year before Motte closed out the Cardinals' World Series championship, Jason and Caitlin loaded up an iPod with Mozart and Pachebel's Canon and other classical music for her grandfather, Lynn Doyle. "D," as everyone called him, had been diagnosed with Stage 4 lung cancer. The iPod was meant to be a companion during treatment -- that is, when Jason wasn't.With Doyle one day at the West Clinic in Memphis, Tenn., Motte saw a request for blankets. Blankets? He could donate blankets. But it wasn't that simple. The hospital couldn't accept actual blankets but sought charitable donations to purchase blankets. Motte asked around about organizing a drive. Caitlin recalled Doyle's advice: "Don't halfway throw a fundraiser."Within a year, the Mottes hosted a "Strike Out Cancer" auction. It took some time to organize -- Motte collected items during the 2012 season -- but in November 2012 they raised $37,000, all of it for the Wings Cancer Foundation."We got it started, and it led to other things," Motte said.One connection, one event led to several more. During the 2011 World Series, Motte flipped a ball from the bullpen to a boy he didn't know. Motte later found out the Cardinals fan from Kentucky was Lane, and he was battling an aggressive cancer. Motte signed the ball "Thumbs Up," a nod to the "Thumbs Up for Lane Goodwin" campaign on social media.The baseball-themed T-shirt company 108 Stitches had a red shirt printed with a backward "K," the universal symbol for a called strikeout. Motte asked about putting the word "cancer" underneath, and the shirt has spread through clubhouses. On Thursday, at least four Cardinals, including Matt Holliday and Chris Carpenter, wore their "K Cancer" shirts during pregame warm-ups. A portion of the sales from the T-shirt benefit the Jason Motte Foundation, itself an outgrowth of these connections Motte has made.There was no going halfway.DEALING WITH LOSSESBut along the way, there were losses. Doyle died Dec. 26, 2011, 11 months before the fundraiser he inspired happened. While Motte pitched two scoreless innings for a save in Game 3 of the 2012 National League championship series, his friend Lane died. Lane was 13. Through him, Motte had become more involved in the social media movement for cancer awareness, and it was on Twitter that he received a request.The 儲存倉ardinals closer was asked to make a "Team Brandt" poster to show support for a young Swansea boy who had been diagnosed with Wilms' tumor, Stage 4. Brandt was too small and the tumor too big for it to be removed when first diagnosed.Motte made the sign, but he also made it a point to keep tabs on Brandt.In early 2013, while Motte was in spring training, he saw on the Team Brandt Facebook page that Brandt's "Make-A-Wish" trip to Orlando, Fla., had been pushed up. No one needed to explain why. Motte reached out to the family and arranged to meet Brandt at a hotel in Orlando, on an off day for Cardinals' workouts. The families clicked.Brandt filched Caitlin's phone and started taking selfies, which Motte still has on his phone. Brandt tugged on Motte's beard. Motte learned all about Brandt's duel with cancer. Halfway through his first rounds of treatment, Brandt's family learned the tumor had an increased resistance to chemotherapy. Instead of "being six months from being done, we started over and had 18 months to go," Jeff Ballenger said. During spring, new nodules had formed in his lungs."The cancer," Jeff said, recalling that day, "was back."Motte heard all about the day they first learned Brandt had cancer -- Oct. 29, 2011. Motte knew it well. It was the day after the Cardinals won the World Series."After the World Series, you're thinking, 'I am the man. I am on top of the world. I friggin' won the World Series, and this is the greatest thing ever,'" Motte said. "A day later, up the street five minutes, there is someone finding out that their child has cancer. This is happening on a daily basis. On a daily basis families are finding out the worst news they ever could get about their 8-year-old son."That's when it hits you."ONE LIFE IMPACTING ANOTHERWhen Motte met with Brandt, there was usually an iPad.Brandt went through several of them during his treatment, filling one tablet up and needing one with more memory until he had the largest available. He loved dinosaurs and had "Jurassic Park" movies loaded on his iPad. Swiping his way through page after page of Brandt's apps, Motte laughed one day when he pointed out that 250 needed updating. The iPad was more than a pastime, it was a hint to Brandt's comfort: If it sat ignored, his parents knew he was having a rough day.Motte visited Brandt in the hospital or at home or after rehab sessions. He brought Brandt on the truck ride around Busch Stadium on opening day, and Brandt counted the signs for him and noticed none for Motte. They don't make posters for injured pitchers, Motte told him.Brandt, quick to remind people "don't forget the 'D'" in his name, was shy when meeting new people, but precocious around ones he knew. He called Motte "Hobo" because of how scruffy and disheveled the pitcher's drivers license looked."Brandt had this huge impact on my life," Motte said. "It wasn't just, 'Hey, go see the kid in the hospital.' It's not, hand over a teddy bear, OK, sweet man, shake hands, smile, and then go to the park and, 'OK, let's get some outs!' This was a friendship that followed me. It's something that just stuck with me. I think of him now on a daily basis."At one point during his treatment, Brandt entered clinical trials but, as his father said, there weren't many to choose from for children. Dr. William Ferguson, medical director at the Bob Costas Cancer Center, explained in an email that children have "many fewer cases of cancer, fewer clinical trials, less funding, but (a) higher rate of access and participation" than adults. The less funding for research struck Motte.Major League Baseball has breast cancer awareness on Mother's Day with pink ribbons and pink bats at the ballpark. On Father's Day, teams wear light blue ribbons and use blue bats for prostate cancer awareness. Motte approached baseball about a day for gold ribbons, the symbol of childhood cancer awareness. The process was slow. He understood "every day would have a ribbon" if baseball responded to every player's cause. The Cardinals responded to his. Starting around the All-Star break, Motte pushed for Monday's event.Nothing halfway.SAYING GOODBYEWhile he organized awareness day at Busch, Motte also planned a June birthday party for Brandt. Listening to the two talk about it, Brandt's parents weren't sure he would make it as his health worsened, "but we never told Jason," Jeff said. The 9th birthday party happened, at Dave & Buster's. Brandt rallied. The iPad was back in his grasp. But within a month he would play it less and less. On July 23, Motte was parking at Busch Stadium, on time for another rehab workout, when he received a text messages from the Ballengers.It said if he wanted to remember Brandt the way he was a few days before, they understood. If he wanted to say his goodbyes, he should come to the hospital.Motte walked away from his rehab and drove straight to Brandt.His friend died 30 minutes after their last visit.Back in their car, driving home from Brandt's funeral, Motte and his wife talked about how they filled their time without baseball this summer, how his elbow giving out allowed him to give of his heart. He told a coach recently that he's eager to see what happens when he's ready to pitch because he has a deeper sense "of the kid out there who hangs on every strike and how this is who you play for."This weekend he'll volunteer at a fundraiser for Lane's foundation and on Sunday night sign autographs at Fizzy's Soda Fountain in Webster Groves to benefit Friends of Kids with Cancer. Only in the past couple weeks did he contract the Goodwins and Ballengers and invite them to Monday's game -- the first of what he hopes are many to honor their sons.It has turned into a memorial.It will remain a mission."If he had never gotten hurt, he would have never met this little boy, never been touched by these boys' lives," Caitlin said. "He believed there was a reason it happened. God had a plan for him and started filling in the gaps. ... The word I keep coming back to is perspective. He's wanted to play baseball since he was 3 years old. Baseball has always been his path. But when it's time to put the ball down, there is another path out there for him. He didn't know it existed.

人類一直對那片廣袤神秘的星空充滿好奇，迷你倉幾乎每種文化中，都有飛天的神話傳說，但人類真正飛出地球、進入太空，卻只有半個世紀的歷史。除月球之外，人類對其他星球的探索也在不斷深入。迄今為止，人類已經向太陽系所有行星（除地球外）發射了探測器。探測器主要通過四種方式探測行星，即飛掠行星拍攝照片、在行星表面硬著陸、繞行星飛行以及在行星上軟著陸。月球群雄逐月鏖戰太空月球是地球最近的鄰居，人類對其探索也開始得最早。1959年前蘇聯發射了“月球1號”探測器，成為月球最早的探路者。冷戰期間，登月是美俄角力的另一競技場，盡管在探測器上落後一步，但阿姆斯特朗登月令美國扳回了一局。從上世紀60年代到70年代，人類六次登上月球，三次通過無人登月探測器抵達月球，採集了大量月球岩石和土壤，通過對這些樣品的分析和研究，人類對這個鄰居的認識越來越豐富了。此後人們對月球的探索沉寂了一段時期，90年代人們的目光又轉向了月球，這時有更多的國家加入了探月的隊伍。1990年，日本發射了一枚航天器，並將一個小探測器放入月球軌道。美國也發射了“克萊門汀”號無人駕駛飛船和“月球勘探者”探測器。到了2003年，歐洲首個月球探測器“智能1號”成功升空，並于2004年底抵達月球上空的近月軌道。此後，它按計劃完成了撞擊月球的任務，撞擊產生的塵埃將有助于科學家解開月球起源之謎。2007年，中日兩國均發射了本國的月球探測器，分別是“嫦娥一號”和“月亮女神”。印度隨後也加入探月行列，2008年首個月球探測器“月船1號”發射升空。德國也打算在2013年實施自己的第一個探月項目“月球探索軌道器”。金星美蘇探測器多次失敗人類對其他行星的探索始于地球近鄰——金星。早在1960年，美國就向金星發射“先驅者5號”探測器，但這次任務因電池故障而失敗。前蘇聯也從1961年起連續向金星發射探測器，直到1966年發射的“金星3號”才成功著陸金星表面。由於金星環境比預想得更惡劣，“金星3號”的通訊系統失效未能發回探測結果。首次向地球傳回金星表面溫度等數據的探測器是1970年發射的“金星7號”，它在同年實現在金星軟著陸。迄今為止，人類已經向金星發了46枚探測器，其中成功飛掠11次，成功環繞1次，成功著陸7次。天王星、海王星美探測器一枝獨秀天王星的很多表面資料是經由望遠鏡觀測而得到，有關它的衛星、行星環數量則由唯一飛掠天王星的旅行者2號所得到。這艘由美國國家宇航局（NASA）1977年發射的無人星際航天器在1986年經過天王星，于1989年飛越海王星，成為唯一一枚造訪這兩個行星的航天器，該探測器發現海王星的6顆新衛星，以及海王星有5條光環。木星探測器給木星“體檢”木星是太陽系體積最大的行星，美國“先驅者10號”和“先驅者11號”探測器是人類探索木星最早的使者。1972年發射的“先驅者10號”于次年與木星相會，飛掠木星並拍攝了第1張木星照片。人類一共向木星發射了10枚探測器，這些探測器多以飛掠和環繞為主，其中最著名的是“伽利略”號。從1995年到2003年，在圍繞木星系統運行期間，“伽利略”號木星探測器為木星做了一次“身體檢查”，獲取大量珍貴資料。2010年8月，NASA又發射“朱諾”號探測器，將在2016年到達軌道，在穿越木星兩極的極軌道間運行，以獲得更多有價值的圖像。水星鮮有探測器光臨與火星和木星相比，人類對水星稍顯冷落。迄今為止，人類只向這顆太陽系最小的行星派出兩枚探測器——1974年的“水手10號”和2004年的“信使”號，均由NASA儲存倉射。由於表現出色，“信使”號探測器原定于2012年結束的使命將延長到2013年。肩負著探索水星表面和內部情況的“信使”號已經成為第一枚圍繞水星軌道運行的人造太空器。火星明星探測器的搖籃就在人類剛有能力掙脫地球引力飛向太空時，首枚火星探測器也上路了。1960年，前蘇聯向火星發射第一枚探測器。四天後，第二枚火星探測器升空，然而它們卻連繞地球軌道都沒能到達。上世紀60年代，前蘇聯共發射7枚火星探測器，全以失敗告終。上世紀60年代，美國也加緊探索火星，發射了“水手3號”和“水手4號”探測器，後者是首枚成功到達火星並發回數據的探測器。迄今為止，全球共進行46次火星探測計劃，僅10次成功登陸，包括美國的“機遇號”和“勇氣號”，雖然如此，一個有趣的現象是，火星探測器中出了很多明星，最當紅的當屬“好奇號”。2012年“好奇號”是人類對火星最“沉重”一吻，因為“好奇號”重達900多公斤，有SVU汽車大小，這樣體型龐大的火星車登陸火星在人類史上還是頭一次。“好奇號”將在火星上工作兩年，探尋火星上維持生命的可能性。“好奇號”要克服的難題之多，連美國國家宇航局（NASA）官員都感嘆，“這是NASA有史以來所有的機器人行星探測計劃中最艱難的一次。”為了讓“好奇號”安全降落火星，NASA工程師借助西門子的產品生命周期管理軟件對火星探測器進行數字化設計、模擬和虛擬組裝，有助于確保探測器能經受火星任何環境的考驗。■ 哪些技術助力探測器模塊化讓發射更簡單NASA的月球大氣與塵埃環境探測器（LADEE）今年9月升空，主要目標是在月球環境未被探月活動進一步擾動前探索月球大氣的整體密和變化狀況等，以及月球塵埃對探測器的影響程度。LADEE探測器的設計進行巨大創新，採用模塊化設計，有效降低預算和飛行器的體積，並成功縮短了從設計到發射的時間。LADEE大小與小轎車差不多，所需動力相當于5個60瓦燈泡。或許此後，若要發射不同功能的探測器只需將不同功能模塊組合即可發射，將大大推動人類探索太空能力。核聚變動力推進火箭目前執行行星探索任務的飛行器大都使用大氣制動，即利用其他行星大氣的摩擦力節省推進劑,研究人員正試圖對此進行突破。NASA正在研發核聚變推進火箭（FDR）。FDR為一台150噸級火箭，利用磁場擠壓由鋰或鋁制成的金屬內圈來包裹氘和氚制成的核聚變燃料小丸，從而點燃核聚變反應。聚變反應在幾微秒內發生並將推進物質以30公里/秒的速度噴射出去，並可以達到約每分鐘點火一次以產生均勻的推力，避免突然的加速度對宇航員造成傷害。運用FDR的飛行器幾乎不需要依賴大氣制動。NASA預計2020年在飛行器上進行使用。軟件模擬外星環境借助精進的電腦技術，科學家可以在設計環節即考慮到探測器面臨的各種問題，從而進行設計、分析與製造之間的無縫銜接，“好奇號”就是這樣製作出來的。價值25億美元的“好奇號”要是在著陸時撞上火星後果不堪設想，讓“好奇號”順利著陸的幕後英雄便是西門子公司的軟件設計平台。西門子公司公關部門人員對新京報記者介紹稱，NASA在設計“好奇號”火星車時，採用了該公司提供的NX軟件設計平台，模擬好奇號可能在火星上碰到的各種問題，特別是著陸時的驚險7分鐘，要從2.1萬公里/小時的高速減至2公里/小時以下的著陸速度，西門子的軟件平台成功模擬了探測器進入火星大氣層時可能會遇到的多種物理影響，進行8000次模擬著陸，確保著陸時不會碰撞損傷“好奇號”攜帶的精密儀器。B04-B05版採寫、資料整理/新京報記者 高美 韓旭陽迷你倉

Source: The Porterville Recorder, Calif.迷你倉最平Sept. 20--Lt. Tom Sigley and his team of marijuana busters are going six days a week this summer to keep up with the huge number of illegal grow sites in the county.It is marijuana growing season and the hard work is really just beginning.So far this summer, deputies with the sheriff's department's Special Tactics Enforcement Patrol have pulled up 220,742 plants -- as of last week. That is already nearly as many as they dug up all of last summer and the busy time of the year is just beginning.Last Thursday, the team pulled up more than 100 plants at a residence on West North Grand Avenue near Porterville."Some of those were 12-feet tall," noted Sigley, who has been heading up the special detail for more than three years. While many of the plants destroyed so far have been much smaller than 12-feet, he said they will now regularly find plants that size and larger. That is because the end of the growing season is near and plants are nearing peak sizes, which can mean 20-feet tall with trunks like trees, not weeds.Fifth District Supervisor Mike Ennis likes to use the word "hammer" when he talks about the county's effort against the marijuana growers."They [growers] know we're here for sure," said Ennis.It was two years ago that a definite shift took place from growing marijuana in the foothills and mountains to growing it on the Valley floor. Last year, deputies took down several large grow sites, many around Porterville and Terra Bella and some with more than 2,000 plants. This year, the grow sites appear to be a little smaller, but the gardens are plentiful."It hasn't shifted, just gotten worse. In past they tried to hide behind the medical [cards]. This year they're doing both."He expects this year's haul to surpass last year's.Ennis said he has gotten numerous calls from residents, many in the Terra Bella area, of suspected grow sites. He estimates he has followed up on more than 30 gardens this year. He did say the number of calls are not as many as last summer.Sequoia National Forest Supervisor Kevin Elliott said more than 70,000 plants have been taken out of the national forest above Porterville this year, more than last year. He said it does not appear the drought has had a big impact, but Sigley said they are running across a few abandoned grow sites in the mountains where they ran out of water and let the plants die.It was at a large grow site above Springville that a well-known volunteer was killed Thursday during a reclamation project to clean up that site. Seth Krogen with the High Sierra Volunteer Trail Crew died when he fell from a helicopter above the site that officials said was littered with chemicals and other garbage.Sigley said his eight-man crew is sometimes going six days and the challenge to keep up is daunting. So far, they have hit 116 grow sites, 100 of those on private land and the remaining in the forest, so far this year. Of the plants seized, it is about a 50-50 split."We've been busting four or five a week," he said, adding it will take longer now to clear a grow site because the plants are getting bigger.Sigley said most of the gardens on the Valley floor have been 700 t迷你倉 900 plants in size, but they took 4,900 plants out of one of the mountain grow sites."I think they're spreading those out," he said of the tactics seem to be taken by growers this year.Growers are bound by both the laws stated in the Compassionate Care Act and county zoning laws. The act limits the number of plants a person can grow based on what are called "recommends," which are letters from doctors giving the person the permission to grow, normally, no more than 99 plants. However, the county has placed strict zoning ordinances on grow sites, requiring them to be indoors, secured, and only in industrial zones, not in ag areas."You can't grow it except in industrial zoned areas," stressed Ennis.Sigley said if they visit a grow site and it is under the 99 plant limit, but not in a properly zoned area, the case is turned over to the county code enforcement department and abatement procedures are begun. If the owner does not remove the plants, the sheriff's department gets involved again.Growers of marijuana face not only prison time, they can also be fined for every day they are out of zoning compliance and that can become very costly. Although seldom used, authorities can also seize property if the owner does not comply, which Ennis said might occur on a recent bust in the Terra Bella area where those growers might face federal charges as well.The supervisor said those who are growing pot in violation of county zoning laws are given 10 days to take down the garden. If they don't comply, they can face a fine of $100 a day for every plant."There is some property where they owe us as much as $800,000," he said.Sigley said deputies have only walked away from a handful of gardens that did meet part of the law, but all have at least violated the zoning laws."I don't think we've found one yet that meets all the laws," he said.There is no one area more prone to the growing. "It's spread out everywhere. We have to prioritize and hit them when we can."He said he knows some residents who call in a site get frustrated when they don't see something happen immediately, but with the backlog, they get to them as fast as they came. Still, he knows they will not get to them all by the time the growing season ends, although some operations are year-round."We've busted some green houses," he said.He said citizens have been good in contacting them with tips, and with plants now taller than most fences, those tips are coming in faster and faster."We do a lot of compliance checks," he said of the tips, then take the appropriate action.While the number of homicides related to the growing of marijuana is down, there still have been two deaths connected to grow sites. Two years ago there were more than eight deaths.Still, they are seizing weapons at many of the grow sites -- 234 weapons to date -- and have made 92 arrests.Rick Elkins is interim publisher of the Porterville Recorder.

Source: The Patriot-News, Harrisburg, Pa.儲存Sept. 20--For the better part of the past two years Americans have repeatedly been told that the federal government was weeks, days, and sometimes even hours away from a total fiscal collapse.The government's financial stability has been threatened by debt ceilings, fiscal cliffs, and sequesters. One or all of them seems to pop up in regimented fashion every few months.And like clockwork, Washington officials are warning again that the latest federal financial fiasco could shut the government down at the end of this month.U.S. Sen. Bob Casey Jr., one of those sounding the alarm over a possible government shutdown, was uncharacteristically emphatic Thursday when discussing the latest spending stalemate."A lot of taxpayers must be saying to themselves 'Didn't those people in Washington get the message from 2011'," Casey said in a conference call with reporters. "The impact of [the 2011 debt ceiling debate] was devastating. You would think that some people would have learned, but here we are again."His colleague, U.S. Sen. Pat Toomey seemed to agrees -- to a point."Like most Pennsylvanians, I am sick and tired of government by manufactured crisis," Toomey said in a statement. "This is no way to manage the federal government. Rather than enacting a budget, passing individual spending bills, and identifying and eliminating wasteful programs, Senate Democrats dodge the tough issues and pass these thousand-page, trillion-dollar, midnight monstrosities."The issue centers around a procedural vote in Congress that enables the government to continue spending money at current levels, and meet financial obligations already made.However confusion and dissatisfaction with President Barack Obama's Affordable Care Act has produced a growing desire among many to exclude the controversial health care law from the funding resolution.Several grassroots organizations -- including some in Pennsylvania -- have appealed to legislators to not approve any funding legislation that enables Obamacare.Many in Congress -- mostly Republicans -- have moved to defund the health care law. Among them are Toomey, R-Lehigh, and U.S. Rep. Lou Barletta, R-Hazleton.Both lawmakers have co-sponsored bills that would halt funding for the health care law.Earlier this month a libertarian group singled out Toomey over the issue. Tuesday he made his position crystal clear."In the absence of repealing this law, Congress should at least delay the implementation of its heavy-handed mandates to prevent the imminent harm they will have on the pocketbooks of Pennsylvanians, job creation, and our economy," Toomey said.But rather than seek some common ground, it seems Congress has positioned itself to reach yet another budgetary impasse.The GOP-controlled House is set to approve a funding plan Friday that excludes Obamacare. However the specific defund provision is expected to be sheared out by the Senate and then sent back to the House.Though many pundits believe the House will pass the edited measure, the budgetary dance is set to continue two weeks later when Congress takes up the debt ceiling debate again.And though Americans are split on the merits of a government shutdown, polls suggest most voters feel a lengthy shutdown would be calamitous for the country.Still, having been warned repeatedly of impending financial doom over the past two years, there's plenty of evidence that voters are burnt out over the whole debacle."I think there's a good bit of ambivalence," said Franklin and Marshall College pollster Terry Madonna. "As a hypothetic [the threat of a government shutdown] doesn't resonate.迷你倉It takes something concrete, something that affects their lives."Madonna pointed to the Pennsylvania voter ambivalence displayed toward successive late budgets passed under former Democratic Gov. Ed Rendell."The voters had no problem re-electing Rendell by 21 percentage points," he said.But even though Obama's approval rating is suffering, Madonna said polls show an increasing inclination to blame the GOP should a federal shutdown take place."Shutting down the government to defund the Affordable Care Act I think would be disaster for the Republicans," he added.However those same polls suggest voters increasingly want Obamacare scaled back.And it's worth noting that the argument to delay funding for the health care law has both pros and cons.The administration has acknowledged flaws in the law, and it will require time to fix them. The calls to put Obamacare funding on hold, as Barletta's bill asks, would provide that time.However in the interim, millions of Americans would go uninsured and businesses would be left in a policy limbo that prevents them from solidifying future plans."They want to repeal this legislation, go back to the time with children with pre-existing conditions don't have coverage, ... and say to those millions of families 'Tough luck'," Casey said of Obamacare critics, adding that linking the debt ceiling debate to concerns over the Affordable Care Act is inappropriate."I voted for changes to the legislation and I'll vote for more, but I'm not going to vote for legislation that repeals the bill and walks away from the problem," he added.Casey's annoyance over the political use of Obamacare was matched by Thursday his contempt for the debt ceiling debate."We all know this is a manufactured crisis," he said. "It's a political stunt by some members of Congress to use the debt ceiling in a way that's very political and in a way that I think is very damaging for the country."The Scranton Democrat pointed to a new report from Congress' Joint Economic Committee that found the 2011 debt ceiling debate led to a drop in the stock market, the first national credit rating loss in American history, a 50 percent drop in job growth, and a negative effect on consumer confidence.Casey said economist have estimated that the mere 2011 debate cost the country $112 billion. And he pulled no punches in assigning blame to Republicans."This is what happens when a small group of ideologically extreme people take total control of a political party," he said defiantly.A new report from the left-leaning Center for American Progress Action Fund agreed."Opponents of the Affordable Care Act have waged a systematic campaign to undermine and sabotage the law," said Tom Perriello, the fund's president. "These efforts may be seem like political games to some in Washington, but they have real consequences for real people."But supporters must come to grips with the inescapable fact that the Affordable Care Act and debt ceiling debates aren't going away -- Toomey and Barletta's recent bills are evidence of that.Toomey, however, sees it differently."I have written and introduced comprehensive budgets and offered ideas to break partisan logjams," he said. "But without cooperation from the other side of the aisle, it has been hard to make progress."So it seems it's left to Democrats such as Obama and Casey to put their partisan frustrations aside, be the politicians they were elected to be, and find a way to keep the lights on in Washington.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 The Patriot-News (Harrisburg, Pa.)
