Scenes at sea, through many eyes
Source: The Herald-Sun, Durham, N.儲存倉C.Aug. 01--DURHAM -- Allison Swaim turns on the sound during an artist talk at The Carrack Modern Art. The sounds come from cargo ships, where "it's loud all the time. I want to create that feeling," she said."The space is very much a work in progress," Swaim said. "We spent the last two days trying to build a ship."As the soundscape played, artists and some 30 visitors viewed videos, photographs, poems, handmade books, sculptures and other works inspired by Swaim's recent documentary research on the life of people who carry the world's freight on the oceans. Using a Thomas J. Watson Fellowship, Swaim, a freelance documentarian, circumnavigated the globe on cargo ships, taping stories and taking video of the people who work on the ships. She came back with 2.5 tetrabytes of images, sound and text.This summer, she asked nine fellow artists to look at the materials and create their own pieces that reflected movement, space, isolation and other themes of life at sea. The multimedia exhibit "Hold Capacity/Trade Route Stories, Reimagined" is now on view at The Carrack.The exhibit opened officially at Tuesday's artist talk, where several of Swaim's collaborators showed and discussed their work.Several pieces draw inspiration from Swaim's interviews with ship captains, deck hands and other workers. Jenny Morgan's "Intimations of Life at Sea" contains poems inspired from interviews, printed on crumpled sheets of paper that hang from the gallery. A visitor can read the poems, while also listening to some of the recordings with a portable sound player.Nora Weatherby's work includes a book of poems titled "Fifteen Poems from a Year at Sea," inspired by Swaim's journals of her trip. She also created several "poem constellations," mobiles with hanging cards that contain text from navigators and the names of stars. Weatherby compared the mobiles to "poems in motion." She was "inspired by pieces of the transcripts where people were talking about the sky and the water," and wanted to recreate that feeling of looking up into the sky in 迷你倉沙田he way that navigators do.Words also are central to Chris Vitiello's sculpture "The Furies," made up of used windows arranged in the shape of a house. Each window pane contains a statement based on the "hours and hours of audio" he listened to (example: "It's impossible not to find a ship in the middle of the ocean"). In the interviews, "they all eventually talk about home," Vitiello said, and his sculpture reflects that longing among the sailors.Jon O'Neill took some of Swaim's video and created a continuous loop video installation. O'Neill put tape and paper over his film projection lens to give the video of various ship scenes a weathered look. The installation is presented in a small storage closet that, whether intended or not, also evokes the feeling of being in the small, contained space of a ship. Eric Waters also created a video, which viewers can watch on a laptop computer while listening to audio of some of the participants.Using an overhead projector, Jaclyn Bowie demonstrated several of her paper cut-out drawings, some inspired by people in Swaim's archive, others by scenes on board the ships. Bowie said she draws the figures on paper, then cuts out the areas where light will escape. When projected, the images resemble black-and-white drawings.Other contributing artists are Amanda Dahill-Moore, Jonathan Lee and Jacki Huntington.Swaim said she chose to present her work through collaboration because the artists can see it with fresh eyes. "I'm too close to it. ... It's really cool to see what someone else can see in it."WANT TO GO?WHAT: Opening events for "Hold Capacity/Trade Route Stories, Reimagined"WHEN: Opening reception Saturday from 7 to 10 p.m. A performance will be held Aug. 9 at 8 p.m.WHERE: The Carrack Modern Art, 111 W.

Flying high
The new Bentley Flying Spur gets sharper looks to match a more sybaritic interior.迷你倉新蒲崗 By Samuel EeADD one tastefully executed redesign to a major power upgrade and the fastest ever four-door Bentley is also the British marque's sleekest looking limousine. The new Bentley Flying Spur is lower and wider with crisp new lines and clearly defined edges, thanks to the superformed aluminium front fenders a la the Continental GT coup?m. But like the two-door Bentley, the 5.3-metre-long Flying Spur has a steel monocoque. The platform is similar to the previous car but with a wider front and rear track.Incidentally, the "Continental" suffix has been dropped and the big saloon is now referred to simply as the Flying Spur.Under the hood, the familiar twin-turbo W12 engine continues to drive all four wheels but instead of through the old six-speeder, there is a new eight-speed automatic transmission.The W12 is a 12-cylinder unit in a W configuration and a new engine management system raises output to 625 horses (up 25 hp) and 800 Newton-metres of torque (plus 50 Nm). This 14 per cent improvement in the power-to-weight ratio allows the 2,475 kg (down 50 kg) car to race from zero to 100 kmh in just 4.6 seconds.But the luxury limousine promises to remain as surefooted as ever. The permanent all-wheel-drive has a standard torque split of 40:60 between the front and rear axles, but depending on road conditions, it can send as much as 85 per cent of the torque to the rear wheels or 65 per cent to the front for optimum grip.Inside, the opulent cabin of the Flying Spur features 600 new parts, with only the sun visors, grab handles, armrests and some of the front console and controls carried over from the previous generation. It combines old world handcrafted wood and迷你倉出租leather with new-world technology and amenities.There is touchscreen infotainment for the driver and his passengers, mobile connectivity including Wi-Fi, a rear seat entertainment suite and a new hand-held touchscreen remote for those in the back seat. An eight-channel, eight-speaker sound system from Naim is optional.To better enjoy all the electronics, electrically-operated rear side blinds and a nine-litre bottle cooler for perfectly chilled drinks can also be ordered.Air suspension with continuous damping control will do its best to avoid any unforeseen beverage spills, and they complement the smoother and silkier gear changes of the ZF eight-speed autobox.Since the big Bentley is ideal as a chauffeur-driven car, it is no surprise that the Flying Spur's world launch was held in China recently. With a 3,066 mm-long wheelbase, the rear bench is a very nice place to be, especially now that passenger comfort is enhanced by a quieter cabin.Bentley's focus on acoustic isolation of the cabin from external noise inputs included the development and use of lightweight acoustic underfloor panels to minimise road noise, aerodynamically optimised insulating sections for the underfloor of the car, side glazing, front and rear acoustic glass windscreens, redesigned doors with additional insulation to the outer skin, and even bigger rear mufflers to reduce exhaust noise by 12 decibels.You could say the Bentley Flying Spur is all about quiet luxury.samuelee@sph.com.sgSPECSBentley Flying Spur W12Engine 5,998cc W12 turbochargedTransmission 8-speed automaticMax power 625 hp @ 6,000 rpmMax torque 800 Nm @ 2,000 rpm0-100 kmh 4.6 secsTop speed 320 kmhCO2 emissions 343 g/kmAverage OMV $220,000Price from $850,000 (w/o COE)Distributor Wearnes AutomotiveTel 6473 7755儲存倉

Tulsa's 911 Call Center gets $2 million dispatch system upgrade
Source: Tulsa World, Okla.迷你倉新蒲崗Aug. 02--Tulsa's 911 Call Center made a smooth transition to a new computer-aided dispatch system Wednesday morning, officials said.Former technology manager Terry O'Malley succeeded Scott Clark as interim director of the center on Thursday.O'Malley said the $2 million upgrade to TriTech's Inform CAD software was made overnight Tuesday between 11 p.m. and 3 a.m. but did not affect dispatch operations.The switch was funded by landline and cellular telephone fees."Everything went a lot smoother than I expected it to," O'Malley said Thursday.The existing software had been in use for more than a decade and was outdated, she said.The 911 Call Center received licenses to test Inform CAD in 2009.O'Malley described the new system as more modern and stable.The software tracks responding units,迷你倉出租as well as pending and active calls, and can link public safety agencies to one another.EMSA also uses Inform CAD, which will allow for greater communication and collaboration between EMSA and the Tulsa Police and Fire departments.An added benefit is the ability to use the system for quality control, O'Malley said."It's kind of one of the Cadillacs of CAD systems," she said.O'Malley said she hopes the software will reduce emergency response times in the city.Call takers and dispatchers began training on the new system two months ago.The center also plans to upgrade telephone and radio systems in coming months.Amanda Bland 918-581-8413amanda.bland@tulsaworld.comCopyright: ___ (c)2013 Tulsa World (Tulsa, Okla.)

《志/工/服/務》大手拉小手 休閒作公益
台灣休閒農場各具特色,迷你倉不但吸引國人親子旅遊,近年來更受到星馬港澳等國外旅客歡迎,台灣休閒農業發展協會甚至自2011年起結合多家農場合作推出「大手拉小手,農場走一走」社會回饋活動,不定期招待弱勢團體免費旅遊,3年下來,已有25家農場合力接待過38個團體,帶給數千位弱勢朋友歡笑。例如今年春天,南投台一生態休閒農場就邀請台南市弱勢族群協會約百位行動困難或復建中的病友,一起前往農場4萬坪花園綠地,欣賞花海美景,並透過DIY親近花卉,運用園藝療法讓病友將注意力從自身傷殘轉移到植物上,頗受好評。再如今年7月,台南大坑休閒農場也結合台南地區13家文件倉型農場,一起邀請南部腦性麻痺協會、雲林婦女保護協會、高雄同心圓等單位合計三百多名大小朋友一起同樂,免費招待搗麻糬、唱山歌、採鮮筍等活動,並大啖烤乳豬及體驗山泉水SPA,讓笑容充滿山谷。事實上,大坑農場多年來不停投入公益活動,例如去年也邀請台南新化、龍崎與左鎮等地中低收入戶共400個家庭,除招待農場特色料理外,還自掏腰包60萬元採購民生物資當伴手禮;另外,農場也與啟聰學校合作提供實習機會,讓學生培養待人接物等基本技能。休閒農業發展協會表示,2013年間尚有多場農場公益活動,民眾如想參與投入公益當志工,或弱勢團體有休閒需求,均可與協會聯繫。存倉

Beijing set to lure more visa-free transit tourists
By ZHENG XIN zhengxin@chinadaily.迷你倉價錢com.cn Beijing has vowed to step up promotion of its 72-hour visa-free policy, aiming to attract more foreign transit tourists following a drop in arrivals for overnight stays in the past six months. About 2.14 million tourists visited the capital during the first half of the year, a 14.3 percent decline compared with the same period last year, according to the Beijing statistics department. “The city is considering further cooperation with Beijing Capital International Airport and Air China to come up with air ticket discounts, while building an alliance to attract more foreign transit tourists,” Lu Yong, director of the Beijing Commission of Tourism Development, said at a conference. Beijing introduced the 72-hour visa-free policy for tourists from 45 countries on Jan 1, but it has not had the expected effect. The capital also saw year-on-year declines in inbound tourists in the first six months of 1989, 1998, 2003 and 2008, the commission said. The weak global economy has deterred many potential travelers from Japan and South Korea, with tourist arrivals from these two countries falling by 54.5 percent and 22.3 percent respectively in the first six months. In addition to a stronger yuan, which increases the cost for tourists to China, frequent air pollution also contributed to the poor inbound tourism performance in the first six months, Lu said. More importantly, Beijing, together with many other Chinese cities, is not providing services that meet international standards, meaning many potential travelers stay away. Jiang Yiyi, director of the China Tourism Academy’s international tourism development institute, said cheaper air tickets are one of the main ways to attract many transit travelers. “Many tourists prefer transit stops, either due to a cheaper air ticket or the additional valu迷你倉庫 this brings. Cheaper air tickets play a key role in attracting more foreign visitors,” she said. Yang Jinsong, a professor specializing in international tourism at the academy, said Beijing should carry out a study on foreign tourists who benefit from the visa-free policy so that it can come up with tailor-made tourism products. Tourism: Rising yuan makes travel more costly “Many of the tour packages no longer meet foreign tourists’ demands,” he said. Further study is needed to find out whether transit visitors come to Beijing for business or pleasure, Yang added. Takahide Tanaka, director of a medical institute who lives in Tokyo, has been a frequent business traveler to Beijing, but said it has been gradually losing its appeal, with few tour choices offered in recent years. “Many of the tour packages in the city have remained unchanged for years,” he said. “What’s more, the devaluation of the yen and appreciation of the yuan have made traveling in China for Japanese people much more expensive.” The capital invested 25.08 billion yuan ($4.08 billion) in the tourism industry in the first half of the year, accounting for 8.9 percent of its fixed asset investment. Tourism revenue in Beijing reached 175.98 billion yuan in the first six months, a 9.1 percent increase year-on-year, the commission said, with spending by tourists on meals and shopping reaching 91.73 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 11.9 percent. Revenue from domestic tourism in Beijing during the first six months reached 162.07 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 11.7 percent. Lu estimates that tourism revenue growth in the second half will be around 10 percent. Yan Ran contributed to this story. 2.14 million inbound tourists visited Beijing during the first half of this year 14.3 percent decrease in such arrivals from same period last year儲存

安排338場商業配對 粵澳名優商品展再促三項目
【本報消息】“二○一三粵澳名優商品展銷會”昨舉行第二日,儲存倉再促成三個合作項目。簽約方來自江門、佛山和澳門,涉及代理女性衛生用品及生產澳門品牌巧克力產品等;大會並安排338場商業配對。另外,有內地藥材展商表示,希望加強推廣當地特產,兩天來已銷售出兩百盒橘紅,反應不俗,對銷量有信心。匯率差價引客增銷來自廣東化州的藥材展商黎小姐表示,橘紅跟陳皮相似,是化州特產的藥材,是陳年樹木的天然果實,具治療感冒咳嗽、支氣管疾病等功效。澳門空氣汙染日趨嚴重,旅客和居民常處人多車多的環境,希望產品可幫助紓緩消費者呼吸道問題。橘紅保存期愈陳愈好,加上參與該展數次,貨品均沽清而回,故今次增加帶貨量。大部分居民對產品或未了解,先選擇購買少許,一試功效,故銷量最好的是盒裝橘紅片,至今已售出超過兩百盒。與內地直營店同售一百三十元,今次以匯率差價作優惠價銷售。今年銷量稍有上升,禮盒裝或原顆乾果也有熟客支持,有信心可突破以往參展銷量。旅客花千元買特產第二年迷你倉沙田展、銷售包裝茶葉的李先生表示,平常貨品在澳門超市銷量一般,今次展銷會首天已賣出兩千五百元貨品,昨天亦賣出超過四十包普洱茶。顧客以中老年人為主,部分更一次過買五、六包,十分滿意銷情。每次參展以推廣為主,賺錢為副,故茶葉、小食等產品全部減價五成以上。產品在北京、貴陽、西安等地均有銷售,樂意與澳門的經銷商合作開拓市場。內地旅客詹先生表示,首次來粵澳名優商品展,感覺人流暢旺,但穿梭巴士每半小時一班,等候時間過長。是次選購了日用品、食品等,花費一千元。來澳主要希望購買特產,故沒有跟內地產品比較價錢,相信展銷會較遊客區的商品便宜。入場時得悉澳門同時有四個展覽進行,對海峽兩岸優良食品展也有興趣,離澳前有意一逛。另外,昨日中午十二時在展場簽訂的三個合作項目,分別為“在澳代理佛山品牌‘小妮’、‘U適’、‘美適寶寶’女性衛生用品意向書”、“在澳代理江門品牌‘加美’、‘CVD’女性衛生用品意向書”及“在澳共同合作生產澳門品牌巧克力產品協議”。迷你倉價錢
