Civil Suit Brought Against Berkeley Steel Foundry

After years of continuing controversy, a class-action lawsuit was filed against West Berkeley's Pacific Steel Casting Company last week alleging that it emits unsafe levels of pollutants into the surrounding neighborhood.
If the plaintiffs win, the suit would require the company to reduce emissions to safe levels or move out of Berkeley, and provide monetary compensation for the thousands of neighbors expected to join the suit.
According to Timothy Rumberger, the attorney representing the neighbors, hundreds of people have already joined the suit. A class-action lawsuit allows an individual or a small group to file a suit on behalf of a larger group.
"I don't think that anyone can say with a straight face that Pacific Steel Company is not the biggest polluter in Berkeley and has been for decades," Rumberger said. "Just because they're big ? doesn't mean they should be able to continue poisoning the neighborhood. If they can't do it safely they're going to have to do it somewhere else."
Company spokesperson Elisabeth Jewel declined to comment.
Two separate cases against the company have recently been settled, resulting in the installation of emissions-reducing systems. A small claims suit has also been filed on behalf of several neighbors.
But Rumberger said this suit is different because it allows the entire community to get involved.
"This entitles everyone that's being impacted by this for representation and potential compensation," he said. "I think there's a lot more potential for change if the whole neighborhood is together."
Rumberger said the suit is the culmination of over a year's worth of work in the neighborhood. Data on emissions were collected from 23 sites around the foundry that monitored the concentrations of chemicals in the air.
Rumberger said that, under standards set by the World Health Organization and the Environmental Protection Agency, the observed chemical concentrations were "far above what would be healthy for a human to breathe."
The suit's lead plaintiff, Rosie Lee Evans, who has lived near the foundry for 47 years, said the worst part of living so close to the foundry was the smell of burnt copper coming from the plant.
In February, the City Council threatened to declare the foundry a nuisance, which could have closed it down. However, the council instead has been meeting with the company to draft steps it can take to reduce emissions.
"We can suggest kinds of things that they can look into but really they're going to have to be proactive in getting the very best advice and the very best technologies installed in the plant," said Councilmember Linda Maio, who represents the area around the foundry.

甘肃甘南打砸抢烧事件共造成94人受伤

新华网甘肃夏河3月23日电 记者从甘肃甘南藏族自治州政府了解到，3月14日以来在甘南发生的打砸抢烧事件中，共有94名公安民警、武警官兵和干部群众受伤。

甘南打砸抢烧暴行
　　另据统计，14日以来发生的打砸抢烧事件，给该州的玛曲、夏河、碌曲、卓尼、合作等市县共造成2.3亿元的公私财产损失。其中玛曲县损失最大，超过1亿元。
　　不法分子在打砸抢烧的同时，对公安民警、武警官兵、干部群众进行了人身攻击，共造成94人受伤，其中受伤公安民警64人、重伤6人，受伤武警官兵27人、重伤4人，受伤干部2人，受伤群众1人。
　　事发后，记者在夏河县城看到，沿街很多建筑物的玻璃被砸破。在这个县的阿木去乎镇，政府机关和公安分局以及卫生服务室、镇司法所的窗户均被砸碎。公安分局院内的树木都被砍倒，电视机被砸烂。玛曲县政府所在的一条街上，绝大部分店铺被砸毁，有的店铺被烧的黑糊糊的，街道上满是碎玻璃和砖块。
　　统计显示，在此次事件中，甘南州105个县市直部门受到冲击，共造成财产损失5795.55万元；27个乡镇及113个乡镇所属单位、22个村委会和14个村文化室被打砸抢烧，共造成财产损失8970.64万元；22个国有企业和442个私营企业及个体工商户在打砸抢烧中损失财产7965.44 万元。另外，还造成321名(户)各级干部群众个人财产损失299.6万元。
　　甘南藏族自治州代州长毛生武(藏族)痛心地说，由于甘南海拔高，位置比较偏远，建设成本比内地高出许多，这次打砸抢烧事件对甘南造成的损失巨大。
　　目前事件已经基本平息，社会秩序正逐步恢复。

未来半月内基金需强制卖1000亿股票应付分红

目前拟大比例分红基金的股票仓位依然很高，很多基金还没卖出股票腾出现金。
未来半个月之内，依照契约规定必须大比例分红的基金还需集体性地、共振式地大举卖出持有的蓝筹股票。
基金集中性卖股分红，就成为近期大盘不断下跌的主要因素。
集中卖股分红
2008年3月31日是基金2007年度报告披露的最后截止日。在披露经过审计的年报同时，契约中规定强制年度分红的基金，要一并公布经过审计的年度分红公告。截至2007年12月31日，34只封闭式基金剩余可分配红利是923亿元。由于债券组合可以提供部分现金，因此还需要卖出股票600亿元左右。部分开放式基金也规定了年度强制分红，因此这些开放式基金近期也需要大举卖出股票，估计需要卖出股票300亿-500亿元。封闭式基金和部分开放式基金合计，在年报披露前后需要强制性地卖出1000亿元股票以应付分红。
综合上周以及3月份以来的基金净值涨跌与大盘涨跌情况并结合去年第四季度基金组合数据看，目前拟大比例分红基金的股票仓位依然很高，年度大分红时间之窗———4月上旬即将来临之际，很多基金还没卖出股票腾出现金。未来半个月之内，依照契约规定必须大比例分红的基金还需集体性地、共振式地大举卖出持有的蓝筹股票。基金集中性卖股分红，就成为近期大盘不断下跌的主要因素——基金制度设计上的某些缺陷，以及对基金管理公司消极分红的纵容，使得市场参与各方终于在2008年3月接受了市场的惩罚。
制度设计缺陷
适度均衡的基金分红政策，有利于基金行业的和谐稳定发展。在封闭式基金上，有利于降低封闭式基金折价率，有利于创新型封闭式基金的顺利发展。在开放式基金上，有利于投资者交易行为均衡稳定，有利于保持基金资产组合的稳定。如果开放式基金实施适度均衡分红，且分红所得免征企业所得税，有利于企业等机构投资者长期持有开放式基金。因为一旦频繁申购和赎回，企业投资者在基金上的差价所得要征收企业所得税。所以绝大多数企业投资者都倾向于开放式基金实施适度均衡的分红，以减少申购赎回交易，保持基金份额的均衡稳定，避免对基金资产组合的强烈冲击。

广电总局封杀汤唯高兴了谁？

　　
【本文摘要】 看到这个消息我一下就想到了广电总局前段时间对《苹果》的封杀，同时还有对艳照门相关图片的封杀，而这一切无一例外全是与色情挂钩的.
　　昨天下午，热心读者电话爆料称，他怀疑汤唯遭电视台全面封杀，因为所有汤唯拍摄的广告和视频均被电视台撤下。京沪两地的几家大电视台相关人员昨日接受采访时承认撤下汤唯广告一事，但称此举是按照上级的要求办事。汤唯的经纪人Cindy称自己目前身在国外，对封杀一事尚不知情，需要了解情况后才能给出回应。热心读者爆料称，他怀疑汤唯遭到了电视台集体封杀，因为汤唯代言的旁氏广告刚播出不到几天即被电视台撤下。
　　看到这个消息我一下就想到了广电总局前段时间对《苹果》的封杀，同时还有对艳照门相关图片的封杀，而这一切无一例外全是与色情挂钩的，可见在内地由于文化的差异，即便是象《色戒》经过了李安李大导演的神来之笔剪切了很大一部分的镜头，依然还是被广电总局定性为与色情有关，而这一切却在《色戒》赚得满钵而归之后，同时封杀的也只是内地演员汤唯一人，而对于另一位主角梁朝伟却未作出任何反应。
　　由于在《色戒》中那段精彩的床上戏让世界上所有喜欢看电影人都记住中国有一个汤唯，甚至于由此对中国文化产生了强烈的兴趣，但是这些我想都不会是积极的一面，估计都在想中国如今应该是相当开放，不然内地演员不太可能出演如此情色的影片。而也正是汤唯在片中的积极表现让她一片成名，曾经有不少人将其与章子怡相提并论，并大肆炒作。
　　从另外一个角度我们看到的汤唯也只不过是人家导演手中一枚棋子而已，真正获利最大的可能就是制片公司，而汤唯在出演这样一部片子之后再未有过尚佳表现，目前也只是疯狂地接拍广告，如今突然受到广电总局的封杀，我想这里面不管是真是假，真正受到损失的应该是那些广告商，他们的钱已经花出，而对于汤唯来说未必不是好事，想一想她不但没有任何损失，相反在没有奉献其他作品之时再一次受到了人们的关注，而同时这一次的封杀可以说将大家的注意力从艳照门中拉了回来。
　　我想对于这次的事件可能最开心的就是被艳照门所按牵连的一些大腕们，因为此时观众的目光全部集中到这位“三级”明星身上，同时也让《色戒》制作组的人们再次激动，因为由于受到艳照门的影响，这段时间内大家对这部片子的关注明显下降，随着这一次禁令消息的曝光，我想人们又一次将目光锁定，其背后的商业价值可想而知。正可谓塞翁失马焉知祸福，让我们拭目以待看看最终这事是炒作还是广电总局真的对色情说不！

中石化 全世界最大最牛的“乞丐”

昨日，中石化集团已获得了政府给予炼油板块财政补贴的批文，补贴将在100亿元以上。中石化上市公司的业绩依然是有巨额利润，并且年年递增，2007年盈利高达700亿元。

　　面对大家的非议，中石化的一位人士给出了以下几条理由，说明给予补贴是必须的：1、中石化是国有企业，即使是炼油亏损，也要开足马力生产。2、国际成品油价格与国内成品油价格每吨高1000元，也要进口成品油保国内供应。3、中石化同是上市公司，要对股东负责，如果炼油明明没有钱赚，这不符合股东利益，需要国家补贴。

　　在中石化的眼里，自己在天底下没有亏本的买卖。想知道的是，即然承认自己是国家的企业，我们每一个中国人都是国家的主人，那主人咋就没感到在你们身上得过什么利益呢？你们每传出的任何一个声音都是涨价一片。既是亏损了，为什么还要开足马力生产呢？这也不符合一个企业的经营规律呀？那不就增加了更大的亏损了吗？做为主人，我们不同意你这样亏损，你们是在亏谁的损？在在亏我们主人的损吧？

　　你们自己说国内的成品油要比国外的价格低一千元，那还跑那么远进口去干啥？显的很委屈似的，在国内解决不就得了，做生意嘛，利益是第一的。真的想不明白，这不是卖了孩子买猴，扒了房子找曲曲-----玩吗！说起话来自相矛盾。听起来的意思，象是为了保证国内老百姓油品的供应，自己吃多大的亏也心甘情愿，真有一种看见了鳄鱼泪的感觉。美国的成品油也都是靠进口的，人家老百姓用的油为什么比我们的还便宜，难道美国进口的成品油比我们的每吨便宜几千元不成？我们每年不也要出口不少成品油吗？多少钱卖给外国人的？比进口的便宜还是贵？玩的什么把戏？

　　做中石化的股东就是好，只赚不赔，全世界那个人不想做中石化的股东？每年有几百亿被各股东分走，还要用国家纳税人的钱来给你们这些满嘴流油的阔佬补贴上百亿，来博取股东的欢心，这说得过去吗？纳税人的钱来的容易吗？现在有多少农民连粮食都卖不出去，今春的种子化肥还没有着落，多难，谁能知晓？有多少小摊贩为了孩子的学费而起早贪黑，还要躲避城管的追截，整日提心吊胆的，谁能理解？我看中石化以后不用做生意也可以嘛，用我们纳税人的钱每年给你们拿个千八百亿的，大大小小的股东一分就得了，这多好，省心不费力，也就别让我们看着闹心了。

　　都说中石化是亚洲最赚钱的公司，可为什么要用全国纳税人的钱来补贴你们呢？张嘴就是百亿，真的是全世界最大最牛的“乞丐”，也是全世界都难找的笑话了。

　　中石化每个员工的月工资都在几千元以上，有的还可干一天休一天，节假日分的东西都要雇车拉回家。工作起来，干与不干一个样，干多干少一个样，轻松自在，发现他们上班人人都在电脑前玩游戏看电影，比在家里还愉快，真是一个和谐的工作环境，人人向往的地方，这样的“亏损企业”谁不愿意来呀！请问一下，天底下有几个这样“亏损”的企业？谁看见一个连短裤都穿不起的人，还要买个笔记本电脑背在身上的？整日吃鲍鱼的人，还要硬性的向讨饭的要钱来买单，那里能够说得通？

　　我突然有一个想法，如果中石化因巨额亏损坚持不下去了，我想把它承包下来，保证每年不向国家哭穷要钱，为纳税人减轻负担，原来的股东不做就走人，请全中国的人来做股东多好，每年保证人人都能分到红利。就这样定了，明天我就去送交自的承包中石化的申请书，如有同意的请跟贴表决！
