為期三天的“競投及管理國際會議工作坊”課程,儲存吸引不同範疇的會展從業員參加。有學員認為,工作坊由國際團隊授課,視野、眼光較國際化,可分享世界不同地方的競投經驗,有助擴闊個人視野,亦能知道自身的不足。學會訂定市場方向澳門威尼斯人會展旅遊市場策劃主任李軍樺是課程學員之一。她認為,本澳定位為世界旅遊休閒中心,會展是重要一環,近年也有不少遊客來澳參加展覽、開會及旅遊,可預見行業的發展空間及存在必要性。是次課程教懂學員以廣闊目光維持業界關係、訂定市場發展方向,有助業界知其不足,加以改善。有六年會展經驗的澳門博覽集團有限公司展覽部經理關桂芬表示,作為一間展覽組織公司,有責任帶領與會者感受澳門,但一直忽略服務與會者的工作,學而知不足,會針對提高服務水平。會展業可接觸不同範疇,如醫學、科技等的專業人士,互相交流意見,十分熱愛目前職業。旅遊塔會展娛樂中心業務發展總監潘雁翎認為,近年政府投放在會展業的資源增加,機會較以新蒲崗迷你倉多,硬件配套充足。如近年各大專院校積極培訓人才,為會展業增添新血。本澳訂下了正確的發展方向,會展業亦開始起步,發展速度的快與慢需取決於各方的配合。抓緊地標宣傳城市潘雁翎及李軍樺稱,身為會展業的場地提供者,希望以本澳作為目的地,投標不同會議,吸引更多人來澳。從課程中學會以國際性管理模式,抓緊本地的標誌去宣傳城市,更要承擔企業的社會責任。學員認為,澳門是一片小福地,居民骨子裡存有熱情,具備地理、好客的優勢。但要成功競投一個國際性會議,必須由整個社會帶動,故要做好公交服務、餐飲、環境等配套,為與會者建立一個健康、可持續發展的城市形象。冀能與不同國際人士、社團合作競投,增加競投力量。鄰近不乏會展業成熟的地方,業界競爭相當激烈。她們認為,相較香港,澳門不一定處於劣勢。本地場館價錢較香港便宜,酒店房量多,加上點到點的距離近,參會觀展非常方便。另外,本地具有世遺特色、穩定的社會及人情味等獨特優勢,也有助會展業發展。mini storage

Dog ordinance unchanged
Source: The Blade, Toledo, OhioAug.存倉 20--Sylvania City Council's zoning and annexation committee has decided to recommend no changes to a city ordinance setting a three-dog limit for residential properties.During an hour-long hearing Monday evening, committee Chairman Doug Haynam told Jean Keating, whose provision of foster homes for dogs prompted a neighborhood complaint in July, that her neighbors believed she had impaired their enjoyment of their properties and thus council had no burden to change the city law.Ms. Keating, who fosters dogs for the Lucas County Pit Crew -- a non-profit organization she founded that provides temporary homes, pending adoption, of "pit bulls" and other rescue animals -- had lobbied council to abolish a portion of the city code pertaining to kennels that places a three-dog limit in residential and non-industrial business zones.Zoning administrator Bob Oberly said he had visited Ms. Keating's home twice in July based on a complaint regarding dogs jumping on the fence, noise, and odor. At that time she had nine dogs at her home, three of which are her licensed pets. He told her she was in violation of the law.However, Ms. Keating said she believes dogs are property and if one can effectively manage to care for them, the government does not have the right to place limits."I think this is cut-and-dried. I don't have a say about how many kids, guns, or cats people can have," she said after the committee's decision to let the law stand.She said she cleans her y自存倉rd of feces daily, and that the constant barking was from a neighbor's dog, since she places the dogs in crates inside her home when she works or is away.Others who were in favor of changing the law, and have been active in dog rescue or fostering activities, sat in the council chambers wearing T-shirts that showed their support for animal care.Ms. Keating questioned how the city could restrict animal ownership, when there is an Animals and Fowls Code that addresses animal nuisances and safety to neighbors."What one person thinks is proper care another person may not agree," Mr. Haynam said.Ms. Keating replied that dogs are property, and "you're limiting what I can own."Mr. Haynam agreed with that statement, saying residents do not have unlimited property rights, especially when the property may infringe on another person's peace and quiet."We have a lot of people living in close proximity to one another, and we have rules and ordinances in place to keep the peace," he said, adding that establishing a dog limit at three per household is an objective way to maintain peace citywide.Afterward Ms. Keating said she would continue to carry out her animal fostering activities, and vowed to challenge the city code in court if cited again for violating the dog-limit ordinance.Contact Natalie Trusso Cafarello at: 419-206-0356 or ntrusso@theblade.com.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 The Blade (Toledo, Ohio) Visit The Blade (Toledo, Ohio) at .toledoblade.com Distributed by MCT Information Services迷你倉新蒲崗

Montgomery Advertiser, Ala., Josh Moon column
Source: Montgomery Advertiser, Ala.迷你倉新蒲崗Aug. 20--Let's not kid ourselves about what the Camellia Bowl really is.It is another in a long line of meaningless, low-level bowl games that pit two teams from lesser conferences against each other in a contest that will serve as the background noise at your office/family/neighborhood Christmas party.And, oh, yeah, it's also great for this city.That might seem like an odd thing to say after the description of the game, but it can be both. Let me explain.First of all, Montgomery's downtown has undergone a revitalization the last few years. We've spent a boatload of money both building and renovating facilities and making improvements required to attract high-profile businesses, like the Renaissance Montgomery Hotel & Spa at the Convention Center.All of that construction and renovation, which is still ongoing, was done, at least in part, to attract events to the city. Events bring in people. People spend money. Money translates into taxes. Tah-dah, the renovations are starting to pay for themselves.The thing is, though, at some point, you have to stop renovating and start attracting. You have to cash in on the investment.This Camellia Bowl is the first big step toward that end.It is Montgomery's opportunity to prove to the sports world -- through ESPN, the sports world's biggest mouthpiece -- that it has the facilities, the infrastructure, the people and the fans to support mid-level events.And let's be real here, the middle of the ladder is all we're shooting for in this city. Not because of a lack of initiative or an unwillingness to be more, but because this isn't a major city. Montgomery's never going to be in the business of bidding for Super Bowls or NCAA basketball finals.It is what 迷你倉出租t is.But make no mistake about it, terrible game or not, people will be watching. Because it's major college football.Every year, we go through this ordeal of people complaining about the number of bowl games, insisting that the addition of more bowls somehow cheapens the sport and the bowl season. They want to go back to the days of just a handful of bowls played right around and on New Year's Day and that be the end of it.And to support their argument, they insinuate that no one is watching these low-level bowl games.And every year, every TV executive is saying the same thing: Shut up.These little bowl games, like the Camellia Bowl, pull in very decent ratings. Because A. It's football, and B. What else are you going to watch in mid-December? Early season NBA games?That's why this is so important to Montgomery."We have to show ESPN that we can do this," Montgomery Mayor Todd Strange said. "We have a six-year deal in place. We expect to meet their expectations and improve every year. After that, who knows what opportunities might be out there for us?"Some opportunities are already in play.Strange said he and city leaders have discussed with ESPN officials the possibility of other sports events -- both football and other sports -- being located in Montgomery, depending, of course, on how this bowl game contract goes.Should those deals pan out, it would mean more money for city businesses. More tax revenue. More jobs. And better PR for Montgomery.This is our shot. Just don't blow it.Josh Moon is an Advertiser reporter and columnist.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 the Montgomery Advertiser (Montgomery, Ala.)

擠下娃哈哈宗慶后 萬達集團王健林 躍居中國首富
大陸最大商業地產企業─大連萬達集團董事長王健林,mini storage昨在彭博全球億萬富豪排行榜(BLOOMBERG BILLIONAIRES INDEX),以142億美元身價,坐上大陸首富的寶座。王健林不僅超越身價110億美元的娃哈哈集團總裁宗慶后,成為大陸新首富,同時還是彭博排行榜亞太區第六(第一是李嘉誠)、全球排名66的世界級富豪。據公開資訊顯示,萬達集團擁有商業地產、高級酒店、旅遊、文化產業與連鎖百貨等5大產業;企業資產2200億元人民幣(下同)、年營收1051億元。目前大陸各地已開業的萬達廣場有72座、五星酒店28家、40家百貨公司、45家量販KTV;萬達集團預估到2015年,營收將成長到2000億元。根據彭博資料指出,王健林旗下房產公司,管理了416self storage坪房產,其中多數屬商業地產。一位在大連從事地產業台商透露,萬達集團土地多數低價取得,在大陸各城市店面租金飛漲下,王健林成為首富,一點不意外。雖然萬達集團旗下企業都沒有股票上市,但彭博透過同業推估,這位大陸新首富在萬達商業地產公司的持股,應有74億美元價值,萬達百貨持股則約56億美元;僅以這兩大資產計算,就足以讓王健林成為大陸首富。如同許多大陸富豪,在依靠大陸市場賺大錢後,往往會把投資目標朝向海外,王健林不例外;他分別在2012年以26億美元收購了AMC,讓萬達集團成為全球最大電影院連鎖集團。今年6月還斥資16億美元,收購英國SUNSEEKER INTERNAITONAL LTD.遊艇公司;並規畫未來將投資10億美元,在倫敦泰晤士河沿岸興建豪宅。迷你倉

He won a scholarship and a six-week internship at the station, WIIC, sending him head-first into broadcasting.After graduating from Edinboro University in 1982, he spent 21/2 years working part time at WSEE and WICU before replacing Phil Fatica as WICU's sports anchor, a position a held until Sunday."It was never my intention to get into TV, but it worked out that way," said Ruzzi, 51, who ends a nearly 30-year career on Erie's sports scene today when he officially becomes co-anchor for four daily newscasts on WICU.Three decades is no short run, and during that time Ruzzi has covered six Super Bowls, a Daytona 500, an Indianapolis 500, numerous high school state championships and countless features.The first one was a package Ruzzi created on Buffalo Bills special teams maven Lou Piccone while still an intern with WJET in 1982.He lists among his favorite moments broadcasts of Strong Vincent's 1991 PIAA football championship, two Girard boys state basketball championships and the unforgettable 1987 PIAA basketball meeting between Carlisle, led by future NBA player Billy Owens, and a Meadville powerhouse led by the Burnett brothers, Paul and Michael.Ruzzi also has worked closely with Erie City Special Olympics since he was encouraged in the early 1990s to become involved as its banquet emcee by former Strong Vincent assistant basketball coach Jim Delsandro.That work, as much as anything he's covered in sports, has left lasting memories.At an event at Penn State Behrend in April, Ruzzi raced a Special Olympian named Willie. In a wheelchair decked out in Steelers logos, Willie pulled away for an easy win, then dazzled Ruzzi with a detailed forecast of the Steelers' draft prospects."I'll never forget the smileself storageon his face when he got to the finish line," Ruzzi said.As with most professions, technology has taken quantum leaps since Ruzzi broke in. In the early years he would rush back to the station after an NFL game and spend hours editing packages against deadline for the 11 p.m. newscast. Now he does the same work on-site in an hour or less and zaps it back to Erie.What hasn't changed is Ruzzi's calling card, an upbeat approach to stories and sources he says comes from five years working alongside former WICU sportscaster Craig Woodard.When Ruzzi took time off in 2001 to be with his father, who was battling cancer, Woodard picked up the extra shifts. After Ruzzi's father died, Woodard worked a Friday night, left early the next morning with a few colleagues to drive to Pittsburgh for the funeral, then returned to Erie to work that night, making it clear he had Ruzzi's back for as long as he needed him."He taught me to look at things with a glass-half-full attitude," Ruzzi said of Woodard, who now works in the financial services industry in Florida. "He had so much positive energy, and that made a real impression on me."Ruzzi has the same sort of close relationship with longtime sidekick Jay Puskar, who will replace him in sports beginning today. Tim Melo, a versatile cameraman/reporter for the station for the past several years, will slide into Puskar's role.Sunday, Ruzzi was back at his parents' home in South Park Township for a helping of his mother's "good luck lasagna" on the eve of today's news desk debut. He admits to having heard from a few skeptics wondering how a sports guy will fare in the news world.But he's not worried about the switch, pointing out that WICU's previous two sports anchors -- Fatica and the late Bill Knupp -- made successful moves to news."Reporting is reporting, whether it's news or sports," Ruzzi said.And, as he learned a long time ago, landing in front of the camera can be a nice fallback plan for an aspiring writer.JOHN DUDLEY can be reached at 870-1677 or john.dudley@timesnews.com.

The big league
Triathlon clubs offer a chance for amateur athletes and children to train with champions, writes Rachel JacquelineTo the casual observer, a triathlon seems like a torture fest.文件倉 It’s an exhausting combination of swimming, cycling and running, interrupted by a flurry of transitions.But that hasn’t fazed the thousands of Hongkongers who take part in triathlons each year. Hong Kong’s triathlon association has 2,500 members and is growing, says Fenella Ng, executive committee member of the Hong Kong Triathlon Association.“Membership has increased by around 10 per cent every year since 2008. We now have 31 affiliated clubs and the HK ITU and Age-Group race held annually at Disneyland has a sell-out capacity of 2,000 entries,” she says.“There is a growing participation across the board: children, adults, corporate relay and, more recently, the introduction of the para-triathlon.”Joining a triathlon club is a great way to become acquainted with the local fraternity, get coaching and find training buddies. Here are a few that are making waves in Hong Kong’s triathlon scene – and details on how you can become part of it.TRITONS TRIATHLON CLUBtritonstriathlon.com and hku.hk/ihp/triathlonStriking a balance between scientific training and having fun is the philosophy of the Tritons Triathlon Club. Founded in 2008 by former Olympians Annemarie Munk, Fenella Ng and Michael Tse, the club is firmly rooted in performance.“We pride ourselves on top quality coaching and education, as well as providing a balanced approach to suit athletes of all calibres,” says Tse, a performance coach. “We provide an environment where we really want our members to learn to improve to reach their goals.”Most of the Tritons train together through the club’s affiliated triathlon training programme based at the Institute of Human Performance at University of Hong Kong’s Pok Fu Lam campus. The partnership provides members with access to coaching, scientific testing, seminars and performance clinics.But there’s also a seriously social side to the group, with many get-togethers held throughout the year. Training, socialising, and travelling to training camps and races add to the camaraderie, says Ng, the swimming coach and club president.“The Tritons really train and compete hard, but having fun is also a big part of it,” she says.“Being part of a triathlon team is very rewarding in terms of support from teammates, and it’s a great way to meet like-minded people,” adds Tse, who believes it’s the club atmosphere that drives the Tritons’ success.“Our club consistently ranks among the top few age-group teams in Hong Kong and many of our members succeed at international age-group triathlons of all distances from the Olympics to Ironman.”Most of the Tritons’ 200 members are professionals in their 30s and 40s; they are a driven lot who all have one thing in common: a hunger for improvement. “Most of our members are extremely motivated and want to achieve something,” says Tse. “But ultimately, it’s not only about the podium; it’s about individuals challenging themselves to be the best they can be.”HOPE SPORT ASSOCIATIONhopesport.comInspired by the 2008 Beijing Olympics, lifelong friends Marie-Christine Lee and Linda Cheng established the Sports For Hope Foundation to support the next generation of young athletes. Funded by the foundation, the Hope Sport Association offers a quality triathlon training schedule for underprivileged children.“We believe in giving everyone the equal opportunity to explore their potential despite their financial situation,” says head coach Lewis Lam.Open to any child aged between eight and 16, the initiative includes a subsidised training programme, with access to equipment and gear.Technical ability is not a prerequisite to join. “We can train them to be able to take part in triathlons,” Lam says. “The most important thing is that they are interested in sport and, in particular, triathlons.”Hope Sport triathletes can train up to six days a week at venues in Kowloon Tong and Sha Tin and regularly take part in local competitions. Thirty children they traine存倉 took part in the Standard Chartered Hong Kong Marathon 10-kilometre race this year.“Youngsters have so much potential in sport,” says Lam. “They have the time and energy to be developed, both physically and mentally.“The most significant improvement I see in the children is in their mental strength, followed by physical strength. They’re more positive after training and feel more confident.” (Membership subject to interview.)SONIC TRIATHLON GROUPsonicsports.org.hkThe Sonic Sports Association is more like a family than a triathlon group, says club secretary Charles Hui.“We train together, race together, travel overseas together and even eat together – you often see each other more than your family members,” adds fellow club secretary Gigi Leung.Co-founded 10 years ago by ex-national triathlete Kenneth Yip and distance runner Kent Wong, Sonic began as a way to offer high-performance training in the heart of the city.“I wanted to share triathlon with the office guys,” says Yip. “They work long hours, so I wanted them to be able to practise and benefit from my experience training as an elite triathlete in a convenient location.”Back then, Sonic comprised only 10 beginners. Today, the club boasts 150 registered members, 50 of which train actively, and 10 junior athletes from the National B Squad trained by Yip.Two times a week, they train at the Wan Chai sports complex in both running and swimming. The weekends are dedicated to cycling and brick training (combining the different sports together in one intense workout) in Shek O.“It’s a combination of beginners, those looking for fitness and those looking to train up for races,” says Hui. “We are a very friendly club, very easy-going,” he adds. “It’s about self-improvement and having fun – performance comes second. However, when we do well, we celebrate.”It’s a modest approach for a club which ranked seventh in performance among Hong Kong’s 30 triathlon clubs last year. Almost all members found out about the club through word of mouth. “My old coach and a friend who was a member recommended it to me,” says new member Jonathan Zamora. “I work near Wan Chai and the cost was reasonable, so I thought it all made sense. I’m really enjoying it.”26 COACHING – YOUTH DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME26coaching.comLeading the way in elite triathlon training and youth development is 26 Coaching. The brainchild of national triathlete and former U23 Asian champion Andrew Wright, the organisation has really made a mark on the triathlon scene in Hong Kong since it was established a year ago.Wright offers elite training to a handful of clients, including Kate Rutherford and Olaf Kasten, the best non-professional “age-groupers” in Asia, as well as youth training for 100 children, up to seven days a week.“The community aspect is a huge thing. It’s a great atmosphere and everyone’s pushing for great results,” he says. Wright is joined on his coaching team by Rutherford and Zeco Wan.Plugging what Wright considers a huge gap in youth triathlon training on Hong Kong Island, he recently established a fully supported Youth Development Squad. His intention is to turn his hand-picked athletes into future Olympians. They train with Wright up to seven days a week, free of charge, and are also offered kits and nutrition sponsors.“There’s some unbelievable talent here in Hong Kong,” says Wright. “I think people here push very hard from a young age. There’s that kind of mentality – when they do something, they really apply themselves.”Wright’s selection represents not just the best, but the most committed young triathletes in the city. “Some people are naturally talented, but that will only take you to a certain level. If you look at any triathlete who is any good, they will be training a lot.”At present, there are seven athletes on the programme, and Wright would like to see the number grow.“We’d like to grow the programme to as big as we can. We wanted to cap it at 10, but our main goal is to build young local athletes who can compete at an international level. The more the better, as long as the commitment is there.”life@scmp.com自存倉

NBTC: Digital TV auction faces delay
Source: Bangkok Post, ThailandAug.自存倉 20--The digital TV auction will be delayed to December or January to ensure the process runs smoothly, says the head of the broadcasting regulator.Col Natee Sukonrat, chairman of the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission's broadcasting committee, said the information of memorandum (IM) for the auction will be announced on Aug 27 and the regulator will clarify some doubtful IM details to potential bidders on Sept 3.The auction document costing 1 million baht will be sold from Sept 10-12 and the NBTC will explain details about it on Oct 15.The NBTC will open applications from Oct 28-29 and will announce qualified applicants within 45 days.The auction will be held within 30 days (in December or January). The regulator will announce the certification of the auction within 15 days.Col Natee expects digital TV will start broadcasting around February or March next year, later than the previous expected date of Dec 5.The regulation on the digital TV auction method means licensed broadcasters must air their channels digitally within 45 days of the regulator certifying them."The three-month digital TV auction time frame aims to ensure a smooth process and provide opportunities to迷你倉新蒲崗a wide range of participants," Col Natee said.A source from one licensed network operator said the issue of network rental cost is still unclear due to a licence-issuing delay to facility providers.This means that four network providers _ Thai PBS, the Royal Thai Army, MCOT Plc and the Public Relations Department _ are finding it difficult to calculate the network rental cost.The NBTC has issued only one facility provider licence to Thai PBS, which has 18 main broadcast towers.According to the NBTC, there will be 39 main stations and 114 substations."Facilities are a key factor to calculate the network rental cost. Although we [Thai PBS, MCOT, the Royal Thai Army, Public Relations Department, TOT and CAT Telecom] have agreed to share our infrastructure, it's not easy to implement and clinch an official commercial agreement," a source said.Moreover, the unclear must-carry rule means channel operators must estimate the satellite-carrying cost.Col Natee said digital TV bidders will know network rental costs at least 30 days before the auction takes place.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 the Bangkok Post (Bangkok, Thailand) Visit the Bangkok Post (Bangkok, Thailand) at .bangkokpost.com Distributed by MCT Information Services迷你倉出租

新加坡
王陽發 報道ongyh@sph.com.sg反映藍籌股走勢的海峽時報指數上周受到美國市場猛跌的衝擊,self storage支撐了24個交易日的3200點防線在上周五宣告失守,最後報3197.53點,全周下跌32.38點或1%。上周五美國隔夜市場持穩,但華爾街的道瓊斯指數已創下一年來最大單周跌幅——跌2.23%。市場人士預測海峽指數本周料嘗試重回3200點水平以上,但本周較遲時將出爐的多個海外經濟消息,包括中美經濟數據和美國聯邦儲備局方面的消息,最終將左右本周市場方向。鑫道投資分析公司(Voyage Research)研究部副主管黃建�表示:“本地市場一直是以美國政府公債收益率的走向馬首是瞻,本周料也將繼續如此。匯豐控股發佈的中國製造業採購經理指數預覽數據以及來自歐洲方面關於製造業採購經理指數的表現,也可能影響市場方向。由於美國聯邦儲備局本周可能調整其貨幣政策,本地股市交投可能繼續謹慎。海峽時報指數可能嘗試回到3200點水平。”市場不只預測美國將在9月開始削減量化寬鬆力度,還擔心時間會提前。因為這個削減量化寬鬆力度的可能,美國政府公債的收益率已大幅上漲,十年期美國公債收益率如今達到了2011年7月以來的最高。已有分析師說,美國股市在本月已見頂回跌,但市場看法不一。道瓊斯指數兩周來確實已從高峰下跌逾576點,上周五閉市僅稍在1萬5000點以上,是過去30個交易日以來最接近這個水平的一次。輝立期貨(Phillip Futures)分析師沈漢強指出,因美國可能在9月削減量化寬鬆力度,本地股市上周受投資者離開市場的影響而下跌。本周市迷你倉將關注的事項,美國方面有當地周三發佈的美國現有住宅的銷售數據、周四出爐的聯儲局公開市場委員會會議記錄,以及美國新宅銷售數據。匯豐控股本周四將發佈中國製造業採購經理指數預覽數據。在歐洲周四,法國和德國的製造業採購經理指數也將出爐。沈漢強預料海峽指數本周將繼續下跌,主要有以下幾個原因:首先,市場預期美國現有住宅的銷售和新宅的銷售,全都將取得改善。正面的數據將加強美國經濟複蘇的看法。這也將使美國聯儲局更有理由削減其每月850億美元的債券購買計劃(意即削減量化寬鬆力度);第二,聯儲局公開市場委員會7月份的會議記錄,將為市場提供進一步的線索,以推測該局何時將減少量化寬鬆力度;第三,市場將繼續保持謹慎,直到該公開市場委員會在9月19日開會討論利率政策;他說,海指眼下的支持線和阻力線是3100點和3250點,下個支持線和阻力線是3050點和3300點。在美國方面,彭博社引述威爾斯資本管理公司(Wells Capital Management)首席投資策略師詹姆斯·保爾森(James Paulsen)指出:“市場需要消化三大事項。首先,它需要消化去年秋天至今這個很大的上漲走勢。我們還需要對利率的重大變化作出調整。我們將需要消化來自削減量化寬鬆力度的影響,而我相信聯儲局將在今年行動。”市場不只預測美國將在9月開始削減量化寬鬆力度,還擔心時間會提前。因為這個削減量化寬鬆力度的可能,美國政府公債的收益率已大幅上漲,十年期美國公債收益率如今達到了2011年7月以來的最高。已有分析師說,美國股市在本月已見頂回跌,但市場看法不一。文件倉
