Source: The Philadelphia InquirerDec.mini storage 09--Finally, it's a done deal.American Airlines AMR Corp. and US Airways Group Monday officially announced the completion of their merger to form American Airlines Group Inc., the world's largest airline.At 7:40 a.m., the secretary of state in Delaware, Jeffrey Bullock, filed a certificate of merger. The new company is incorporated in Delaware.US Airways CEO Doug Parker, who will lead the new American, will ring the opening bell on the Nasdaq stock market at 9:30 a.m. eastern time, signifying the the opening of trading of the new American's shares on Nasdaq. Ticker: AAL."After today's celebration, the real work begins," Parker said in a message to employees. "These include integrating our networks, combining our frequent flier loyalty programs, and achieving a single operating certificate."The new American will be based in Fort Worth, Tex. and have 6,700 daily flights to more than 330 destinations in more than 50 countries, and more than 100,000 employees.About 6,600 US Airways employees are based in Philadelphia. The combined airline says it will keep nine U.S. hubs, including Philadelphia.It will take months -- and up to two years -- to blend frequent flier programs, aircraft fleet, workforces, paint planes, and integrate computer reservations systems.The biggest challenge will be avoiding the computer glitches that snarled passenger bookings and flight reservation systems after the 2010 merger of United and Continental airlines.In the short term, both companies will continue to operate separate websites and flight schedules.Customers will start to notice changes in early January, when the American Airlines code will be put on all US Airways flights, and fliers can go to American Airlines.com and book any US Airways or American flight. US Airways frequent fliers will be able to use their earned miles to book flights on American and so called "elite" customers -- the most frequent of fliers who are in "chairman preferred" status -- will have waived bag fees on American, starting Jan. 7, as they did on US Airways, said American's new president Scott Kirby."While we will have reciprocity and recongition, we will still have different upgrade programs and 儲存ists," Kirby said in an interview. "It will be at least a year before the accounts will roll into one frequent-flier account."Management expects $1 billion in merger efficiencies and revenue through cost savings by 2015.Parties for airline employees were held in all nine hubs Monday.Before the two airlines can fully merge, the Federal Aviation Administration must grant American a single operating certificate, and that will likely take until the end of 2015, Kirby said.On March 31, 2014, US Airways will officially join the "oneworld" global alliance, led by American and British Airways, which allows passengers to book flights anywhere in the world on the oneworld partner airlines.How smoothly airlines combine operations "comes down to three things -- labor, management and information technology," JP Morgan Chase airline analyst Jamie Baker wrote in a recent client note.In the Delta-Northwest airlines merger in 2008, the pilots were on board and cooperative, but unionization efforts for mechanics and flight attendants "proved time consuming and distracting," Baker said. Meshing Delta and Northwest's technology and reservation systems went smoothly, he said.In the United-Continental merger in 2010, combining the reservation and ticketing systems "proved extremely challenging."In the case of US Airways and American, labor has been supportive and "wages are largely known," Baker wrote.US Airways management, who will run the new American, "has done this before. American's integration prospects appear better than average in our view," Baker said.Doug Parker, 52, began pursuing the merger soon after American parent AMR Corp. filed for bankruptcy protection in November 2011. The airlines announced an agreement to merge in February, and worked toward a September closing when the U.S. Justice Department, on Aug. 13, filed an antitrust lawsuit to block the deal.A settlement with the Justice Department was announced Nov. 12. U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Sean Lane approved American's reorganization plan, including the merger, on Nov. 25.lloyd@phillynews.com215-854-2831Copyright: ___ (c)2013 The Philadelphia Inquirer Visit The Philadelphia Inquirer at .philly.com Distributed by MCT Information Services迷你倉

南都訊 記者伊曉霞 實習生 劉勁 法國總理訪華帶來諸多利好消息，self storage其中之一就是加快中國赴法簽証的辦理速度。12月8日傍晚，訪華團成員之一，負責海外法國公民事務的部長級代表埃萊娜·康威-穆雷在廣州接受媒體群訪時透露，將率先實現商務人士及藝術家48小時完成赴法簽証。埃萊娜表示，中法兩國的交流不僅僅是經濟的交流，也是人與人的交流。她希望中法兩國的商務人士去彼此的國家都越來越容易。“我們的目標是把簽証時間縮短到48小時。”據她介紹，此項工作將分階段進行，將率先推出一些優享類型，如商務人士及藝術家，“希望他們來法國的時候，不會因為簽証影響到行程”。她透露，目前外交部在法國正對這項新政進行評估。“通過分階段實施，最終將此政策迷你倉廣到全部中國公民。”據瞭解，目前中國赴法簽証一般要3天時間才能辦理下來，如果縮短至兩天，將進一步方便商務、留學及旅遊人士。另據埃萊娜透露，法國還有意促進中法兩國的學生交流工作。她表示，法方希望中國留法學生人數增加，目標是從今年的3.5萬人，增加到2015年的5萬人。同時也希望法國在中國的留學生量從目前的8000人左右增加到1萬人。據法國駐廣州總領事館介紹，近幾年華南地區赴法簽証的簽發量逐年增加。2010年為2.8萬個，2011年為4 .4萬個，2012年增長到5萬個，今年截至9月30日簽發了4.9萬個，預計今年總體簽發量增幅將達到15%-20%。另一方面，拒簽量也在明顯下降，從以往的10%左右下降到目前的7-8%。迷你倉樂器

Abundant liquidity in the region has raised the risk of a sudden hike in capital outflows, the chief executive warned yesterday, vowing to launch any measure needed to ensure the smooth operation of the local financial market.存倉 ``The global flow of hot money has induced risk of a reverse flow of capital within Asian regions. Also, it remains an unknown of when the central bank of the United States and other nations start tapering. Thus, the direction of market development is uncertain,'' Leung Chun-ying told an economic seminar. But he said no matter what happens, Hong Kong will continue to play a key role in China's financial sector reform. The SAR can act as a ``superconnector'' to bring foreign firms to the mainland market, as well encourage them to trade in yuan using Hong Kong as a platform, Leung said. Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury Ceajar Chan Ka-keung said it is better for the US Federal Reserve to start tapering earlier because the later it starts, the higher the risk it will pose amid abundant liquidity in the market. Although it is hard to estimate the exact timing, Hong Kong is certain to be affected by the rise in interest rates 儲存as a result, Chan said at the seminar, titled the Economic Summit 2014. But he is confident about the territory as the local equity and initial public offering markets are quite healthy. However, economist Lawrence Lau Juen-yee, chairman of CIC International (Hong Kong), warned of a possibility for the US Fed to start scaling back its asset purchases this month. His view contrasts sharply with those of HSBC and Hang Seng Bank (0011), which expect tapering to start by the first quarter next year. Lau said the quantitative easing has limited impact on the US economy and is merely a tool to depreciate the greenback and boost the competitiveness of American exports. George Leung Siu-kei, HSBC's adviser for Asia-Pacific strategy and economics, predicts the Fed will not raise its benchmark interest rate even after 2015, as the tapering will be a slow process. This would bode well for Hong Kong as it can follow the lead in maintaining low interest rates. On the topic of bitcoins, Chan said the government will monitor the digital currency, but will take no administrative measures unless something illegal happens or is about to happen. imogene.wong@singtaonewscorp.com 迷你倉

作者：石述思奇虎360與騰訊的“3Q大戰”已經整整持續了兩年半，儲存目前已經無限接近塵埃落定。目前，雙方種種糾纏著江湖恩怨的說辭，已經激不起媒體太多興趣。也許儘快謝幕對所有人都是一種解脫。從目前的情形判斷，無論官司的勝負，騰訊和360都不是真正意義的輸家。借助法庭上的狼煙，兩家公司都賺足眼球，在注意力經濟當道的互聯網世界，這樣的廣告效應遠遠超越訴訟的成本，尤其是後起之秀360總裁周鴻禕絲毫不掩飾這點。而消費者最終淪為綁在商業戰車的可憐籌碼，卻徒呼奈何。無論是互聯網市場管理，還是IT業不正當競爭，目前根本沒有一部完整意義的行業法規。而修改後的消費者權益保護法也對類似競爭引發的侵權缺乏明確條款。尤其是目前我國在軟件兼容方面的立法不完善，必將成為未來宣判的難點。這說明，近些年即使互聯網已經成為公�日常生活工作關鍵的工具，網民數量逼近6億，而相關的立法工作嚴重滯後，為企業惡性競爭，危及消費者利益提供了溫床。更令人費解的是，3Q大戰如火如荼地持續兩年多時間，不少律師、法學界專家關迷你倉完善立法的意見建議不絕於耳，卻始終未引起相關部門高度重視。2010年11月21日，在3Q大戰白熱化，並引發消費者�怒的情況下，工信部才通報批評騰訊和360，並要求雙方5日內向社會公開道歉。同時稱下一步將會同有關部門對兩公司涉嫌違反相關法律規定的行為進行調查處理。但這沒有阻止騰訊最終起訴360扣扣保鏢不正當競爭，並于2011年9月在廣東省高院立案。還有一個輸家是互聯網相關行業協會。這個關鍵的行業自律組織在行政化的窠臼下，往往面臨權力和利益雙重綁架，很難真正有效地發揮其規範企業競爭、推動市場秩序完善、維護消費者合法權益的作用。正因為這重重關隘的失守，3Q大戰如脫�野馬，最終將官司打到高法，期間耗費的社會成本、司法成本和公�利益成本難以估量。無論高法最終如何判決，都將影響未來我國互聯網的立法方向，並期待能從真正維護消費者權益、維護正常市場競爭秩序的角度，真正依法厘清政府、企業和社會的邊界，推動整個行業監管體制的完善。是時候亡羊補牢了。（文章來源：中國經營網，作者系資深媒體人）self storage

作為推介的產品，迷你倉樂器一定要性價比高，但並非常有。HP也是電腦大品牌，旗下的Envy M6-K015以5,399港元的定價獲得不少人關注，是否大件挾抵食？我們來分析一下。首先說這部機器的外殼，以鋁質打造，甚有生果機風範，金屬質感讓人感到堅固耐用。配合Intel最新的Haswell系列的Core i5-4200U 1.6GHz雙核心處理器，效能不俗，屬於中游位置的競爭力，配合8GB DDR3 RAM，應付一般文書和低要求的遊戲不成問題迷你倉西貢顯示方面，15.6吋解像度只有1,366×768，有點落後了，實際使用時影像倒是清晰銳利，可惜稍嫌飽和度偏低，不夠艷麗，略顯灰沉，但是它具備10點觸控，這點讓它搶回點分數，加上機器配備Beats Audio喇叭，音效不俗，睇片時有加分。至於周邊方面，兩組USB3.0應付日常需要，可惜沒有內置光碟機。總體來說，機器的配置屬中等水平，不過不失，最大亮點是鋁質外殼，加上定價不高，待上市一段時間後落價，就是入貨最佳時刻，大家不妨多留意。迷你倉將軍澳

香港文匯報訊（記者 黃嘉銘）重重政策包圍下，迷你倉利嘉閣按揭代理董事總經理黃詠欣昨預期，明年低息環境持續，加上政府不會撤招，二手市場將維持牛皮。不過，近期發展商積極推盤，一手樓花按揭勢將成為樓按焦點，預期明年新取用按揭貸款宗數達6.8萬宗，貸款額1,880億元，較預測今年全年的6萬宗及1,580億元，分別升13%及19%。H按比率明年或超P按黃詠欣認為，由於目前H按最低實際息率僅為1.9%（H+1.7%），亦有中小型銀行可提供H按鎖息上限低至2.15%，相比大型銀行P按息率2.15%至2.4%扯平甚至更低。她相信，大型銀行將為保持市佔主攻H按，相關產品息率有機會下調，其選用比率甚至有機會重新超越P按，主導樓按市場，但估計不會低於H+1.7%的水平。黃詠欣儲存倉，雖然環球市場普遍認為美國將於明年年中開始退市，但退市不代表即時加息，預期美國要到2015年才正式踏入加息周期，因此息口走勢仍然低企。此外，因金管局的按揭規限，銀行現時只能為細價樓提供最高達樓價9成按揭借貸，造就財務公司湧現。該行預期明年將有更多財務公司看準市場空缺，提供高成數按揭吸納樓花客戶。而財務公司亦會積極開拓各類的貸款產品，如物業二按、業主貸款、汽車貸款及樓換樓貸款計劃以作配合。利嘉閣「換樓按」爭客該行亦把握機會，與香港信貸為利嘉閣地產客戶帶來「業主換樓易」貸款計劃，賣樓業主現凡經利嘉閣購買新物業，現有物業尚未賣出或尚未成交，均可透過計劃申請備用繳付首期支出，可享最高貸款額高達估價8成，月息2%，貸款期可短至1個月，免律師費、手續費及估價費。迷你倉最平
