中美双方共同呼吁重启多哈贸易谈判。

商务部在一份声明中说，商务部部长薄熙和来访的美方贸易代表苏珊·施瓦布共同呼吁恢复多哈谈判。

薄熙来说，中国愿和其他国家一起努力，推动多哈谈判尽快恢复。

薄熙来表示“对多哈谈判的中止感到遗憾”，因为建立一个公平的多边贸易体制能让世贸组织的大多数成员国获益。

施瓦布说美国愿为多哈谈判的恢复做出努力，并强调要关注市场准入和发展等问题。

由于澳大利亚、巴西、欧盟、印度、日本和美国六个世贸组织成员未能就农产品和工业品的贸易问题达成一致，多哈谈判于今年7月下旬被迫中止。

多哈谈判被视为促进全球经济发展和减少贫困的一个千载难逢的好机会，因此，谈判的破裂无论对于发展中国家还是发达国家都是致命的一击。

薄熙来表示希望发达国家能为重启和推进多哈谈判做出更大的努力。

施瓦布说，中国作为多边贸易体制的最大受益者，应该在多哈谈判中发挥更大的作用。

施瓦布的发言人肖恩·斯派思在谈判结束后说，对于美国和中国而言，“市场准入是一个极其重要的问题，这已成为共识”。

施瓦布上周在美警告说：“如果多哈谈判在今年没有取得任何突破性进展，恐怕就得等到几年之后了。”

此外，此次中美贸易会谈的主要议题还包括知识产权的保护、中国市场经济的地位以及美国商务签证的申请问题。
Beijing and Washington yesterday called for the revival of the stalled Doha Round of global trade talks.

Susan Schwab

The joint call was made by Minister of Commerce Bo Xilai and visiting US Trade Representative Susan Schwab, according to a statement released by the plastic mold Ministry of Commerce.

Bo said China is ready to push, along with other Plastic pen countries, for an early resumption of the World Trade Organization (WTO) talks.

He said he "regrets the suspension of the Doha Round of talks," because setting up a just multilateral trade regime benefits a majority of WTO members.

Schwab said the United States would make effort for the restart of the Doha talks, and called for more attention to be paid to market access and development issues, the Plastic Submersible Pump Ministry of Commerce statement said.

The Doha Round was suspended in late July after six major members Australia, Brazil, the European Union, India, Japan and the United States failed to reach a consensus on agricultural and industrial trade.

The breakdown of the talks, which were seen as a once-in-a-generation chance to boost growth and ease poverty around the world, is a blow to both Plastic Submersible Pump (JPP-100F)   and plastic toy .

Bo wants developed PLATFORM SCALE   to make more efforts to restart and get the talks back on track.

Schwab said polishing bonnet , which she described as the largest beneficiary of the multilateral trade regime, should play a bigger role.

Her POCKET SCALE , Sean Spice, said after the talks that "there was a general agreement that market access is an extremely important component" for both the United States and China.

Schwab warned last week in the United States that "if we can't get a plug valves   by January, February, March ... it's going to be several years before we get a breakthrough."

The protection of intellectual property rights, China's pocket bike status and the application for US business visas also topped the meeting of the two trade officials.

新加坡央行收紧货币政策
Singapore Juices Currency

因通货膨胀加速和对经济增长的乐观预期，新加坡央行开始紧缩其货币政策，这是它自2004年4月以来第一次调整货币政策。

新加坡金融管理局(Monetary Authority of Singapore)表示，已调高本地货币的最大升值速度，但并未改变汇率区间的范围和中值，这一汇率区间目前仍未对外公布。该消息引发了当局乐见货币升值更快以缓解消费价格上涨这样的猜测，使新加坡元汇率创下10年来新高。

就在公告发布前不久，美元从1.472新加坡元跌至1.4631新元，交易商们开始担心新加坡当局或会进行干预以减缓汇率的大幅波动。之后美元在新加坡汇市反弹至略高于1.465新元的水平，有未经证实的报导说，新加坡央行曾入市干预。

收紧货币政策显示出新加坡对控制通货膨胀问题的严肃态度，甚至不惜以减缓经济增长为代价。新加坡央行政策立场趋于强硬使一些分析人士预计，央行或会在明年4月的会议上再次紧缩货币政策。

新加坡央行的这一决定显示出，即便美国最近放松了其货币政策，亚洲各国央行仍需要根据当地的实际情况调整政策。

花旗集团(Citigroup Inc.)驻新加坡的经济学家Chua Hak Bin说，新加坡的经济周期与美国并不完全同步，因此需要因地制宜地调整政策。

因总体经济的强劲增长势头和制造业的加速扩张，新加坡经济第三季度增长了6.4%，但增速不及第二季度的14.4%。

新加坡贸易部长说，经济正向着政府今年预测的7%-8%的增长目标稳步迈进。

Chua Hak Bin说，新加坡的通货膨胀率可能已经超出了央行认为适宜的范围，央行曾表示消费者价格指数预计2008年上半年将上涨3.5%。

因7月份上调销售税，8月份消费者价格指数较上年同期上涨了2.9%，创近13年的新高。

JOHN JANNARONE  
The central bank tightened monetary policy in response to rising inflation and an upbeat growth outlook, marking the first change since April 2004.

The Monetary Authority of Singapore said it raised the local currency's maximum rate of appreciation but didn't change the width or position of its undisclosed currency rat snap trap traditional band. The news sparked the Singapore dollar to a 10-year high on speculation that authorities are willing to let the currency rise faster to temper rising consumer prices.

The U.S. dollar fell to 1.4631 Singapore dollars from S.472 just before the rear mounted mower Recovery vehicle announcement, putting traders on guard for possible intervention by Singapore authorities seeking to smooth sharp RED LATTICE BAG movements. The U.S. currency later rebounded to just above S.465 in Singapore trading amid unconfirmed reports the central bank had entered the market.

The tighter policy suggests Singapore is serious about getting inflation under control, even at the expense of slower growth. The more refrigerator air purifier hawkish stance has led some analysts to predict the central bank might tighten policy again at its next meeting in April.

The decision highlights the need for central banks in Asia to tailor policy to local conditions, even as the U.S. recently moved to an Reinforced Plastics Mortar Pipe easier monetary policy.

'In Singapore, the business cycle is not exactly in sync with the U.S., so there's a need for fine-tuning,' said Chua Hak Bin, a RED PRINTED BAG Citigroup economist in Singapore.

Singapore's economy grew 6.4% in the third quarter from the second quarter on an adjusted, annualized basis, led by strength across the economy and a faster Refrigerator expansion in manufacturing. But that was slower than the second quarter's 14.4% growth.

Singapore's trade ministry said the economy is 'well on track' to meet the RED PRINTED BAG(WOODEN HANDLE) government's 7%-8% growth forecast for this year.

Singapore's inflation may 'have breached the central bank's comfort zone,' Mr. Chua said, noting that the central bank has said it expects the reflective vest consumer-price index to rise 3.5% in the first half of 2008.

The consumer-price index in August rose 2.9% from a year earlier, the fastest pace in almost 13 years, boosted by July's sales-tax rise.

日央行行长暗示近几个月不会加息
Central-Bank Chief Signals Rate Increase Is Months Away

日本央行(Bank of Japan)行长福井俊彦(Toshihiko Fukui)强调了全球经济所面临的风险以及市场目前的不稳定状态，此前日本央行理事会投票决定继续维持利率不变。他的这一表态显示加息是几个月以后的事了。

加上10月份这一次，日本央行理事会已连续第四个月以8比1的投票结果决定将基准利率继续维持在0.5%的水平。

福井俊彦周四说，虽然世界经济预计将保持增长，但由于全球经济和金融市场依然不稳定，我们必须小心评估其事态发展。

投票结果公布前，各方的猜测一直集中在央行理事会中货币政策立场最强硬的水野温氏(Atsushi Mizuno)身上，看他是否能让理事会中其他成员相信有必要立即加息。而他最终未能做到这一点则表明，日本央行对美国住房市场萧条所带来不利影响的担忧是多么深。

福井俊彦说，美国住房市场的调整依然是决定美国经济前景的主要因素。美国是日本的主要出口市场。

JP摩根(J.P. Morgan)的日本政府债券策略师Akihiko Yokoyama说，如果此次投票的结果是7比2，市场人士可能就要猜测加息可能会提早到10月或11月了。他还说，就算投票结果仍是8比1，只要福井俊彦说过些能显示强硬货币政策立场的话，市场还是会作此联想。

瑞士信贷(Credit Suisse)所作的一项调查显示，市场认为日本央行在11月份加息的几率是16%。日本央行理事会的下一次会议定于10月31日召开。

Bank of Japan Gov. Toshihiko Fukui emphasized global economic Samsung mobile X410 risks and unstable markets after the central bank voted again to keep interest rates steady, suggesting a rate increase remains months away.

October marks the Samsung mobile Wep-150    fourth consecutive month the board has voted 8-1 to keep interest rates on hold at 0.5%.

'We must carefully examine developments Samsung mobile of the global economy and financial markets as they are still unstable, although the global economy is likely to keep expanding,' Mr. Fukui said Thursday.

Speculation had centered on whether Atsushi Mizuno, the board's Sandstone Flowerpot most hawkish member, would convince any colleagues that an immediate rate increase was needed. His failure suggests the extent to which the central bank is Samsung mobile D600 concerned about the fallout from the U.S. housing downturn.

Mr. Fukui said adjustments Samsung mobile D840 in the U.S. housing sector remain the primary factor in determining the outlook for the U.S. economy -- the main outlet for Japanese exports.

'If the vote had been 7-2, Sandstone Sandstone Column market participants would have started speculating about an early rate hike in October or November,' said Akihiko Yokoyama, Japanese government-bond strategist at J.P. Morgan. 'Even if the results were 8-1 but Fukui had Samsung mobile E898 said something hawkish...the market would have paid attention.'

A Credit Suisse survey indicated markets see a 16% chance Samsung mobile P310 Japan's central bank will raise rates in November. Board members next meet Oct. 31.  

可能实现智能芯片植入人体

It’s 10 p.m. You may not know where your child is, but the chip does.
The chip will also know if your child has fallen and needs immediate help. Once paramedics arrive, the chip will also be able to tell the rescue workers which drugs little Johnny or Janie is allergic to. At the hospital, the chip will tell doctors his or her complete medical history.
And of course, when you arrive to pick up your child, settling the hospital bill with your health insurance policy will be a simple matter of waving your own chip - the one embedded in your hand.
To some, this may sound far-fetched. But the technology for such chips is no longer the stuff of science fiction. And it may soon offer many other benefits besides locating lost children or elderly Alzheimer patients.
"Down the line, it could be used [as] credit cards and such," says Chris Hables Gray, a professor of cultural studies of science and technology at the University of Great Falls in Montana. "A lot of people won’t have to carry wallets anymore," he says. "What the implications are [for this technology], in the long run, is profound." WOODEN CLOCK wooden craft    Indeed, some are already wondering what this sort of technology may do to the sense of personal privacy and liberty.
"Any technology of this kind is easily abusive of personal privacy," says Lee Tien, senior staff attorney for the Electronic Frontier Foundation. "If a kid is track-able, do you want other people to be able to track your kid? It’s a double-edged sword."
Tiny Chips That Know Your Name
The research of embedding microchips isn’t entirely new. Back in 1998, Brian Warwick, a professor of cybernetics at Reading University in London,wooden decoration wooden door wooden furniture Wooden Plate wooden products implanted a chip into his arm as an experiment to see if Warwick’s computer could wirelessly track his whereabouts with the university’s building.
But Applied Digital Solutions, Inc. in Palm Beach, Fla., is one of the latest to try and push the experiments beyond the realm of academic research and into the hands - and bodies - of ordinary humans.
The company says it has recently applied wrapping paper writing instruments xbox 360 xenon lamp    to the Food and Drug Administration for permission to begin testing its VeriChip device in humans. About the size of a grain of rice, the microchip can be encoded with bits of information and implanted in humans under a layer of skin. When scanned by a nearby reader, the embedded chip yields the data - say an ID number that links to a computer database file containing more detailed information.
Chipping Blocks
Most embedded chip designs are so-called passive chips which yield information only when scanned by a nearby reader. But active chips - Worktable for Glass Assembling Worktable for Plastic window assembling woven bags woven lanyards such as the proposed Digital Angel of the future - will need to beam out information all the time. And that means designers will have to develop some sort of power source that can provide a continuous source of energy, yet be small enough to be embedded with the chips.
Another additional hurdle, developing tiny GPS receiver chips that could be embedded yet still be sensitive enough to receive signals wooden stretcher bars wood-Steel interior Door wool felt
work glove working glove    from thousands of miles out in space.
In addition to technical hurdles, many suspect that all sorts of legal and privacy issues would have to be cleared as well.

　　已经是晚上10点钟了，（如果你的孩子现在还没有回家，）你可能无法知道他们身在何处，但一枚小小的芯片却可以帮你的忙。
　　你还可以通过芯片知道你的孩子是否摔倒了，是否需要急救。当医务人员赶到时，芯片还能够告诉他们受伤的孩子对哪种药物过敏。在医院，芯片能够告诉医生小患者的医药史。
　　当然，当你赶到医院去接孩子的时候，用健康保险单结算医院账单的过程将简化为摆动一下你植入了芯片的手掌。
　　对于一些人来说，这些事情听上去似乎有些不可思议。但是这种芯片已不再只是出现在科幻小说里虚构的内容了。并且在不久的将来，这种芯片除了帮助人们寻找走失的孩子和老年痴呆症患者之外，它还将给人类带来许多其他的帮助。
　　蒙大拿州大瀑布大学从事科学技术人文研究的克里斯·哈布莱斯·格雷教授说："事实上，这种芯片可以具有信用卡或者类似的功能。人们将不用再随身带着钱包了。这就意味着，从长远看，这项技术的发展前景非常广大。"
　　然而有些人不禁要问：这项科技对人们的隐私和自由将意味着什么呢？
　　电子前沿基金会的高级律师李婷说："任何一种类似的技术很容易会被人们滥用而造成对个人隐私的威胁。如果你的孩子真能通过芯片来定位，那么你希望其他人也能够通过这种方法来跟踪你的孩子吗？它（这种技术）实际上是一把双刃剑。"
　　小身材，大用途
　　将芯片植入人体并非一项全新的研究。早在1998年，英国伦敦瑞丁大学研究控制论（对信息传递和控制的研究，尤其涉及人及动物大脑与机器及电子装置的差异）的教授布雷恩·沃里克就曾经将一枚芯片植入自己的胳膊，他进行这项实验的目的是为了测试自己的电脑能否在楼内无线跟踪他的行迹。
　　位于美国佛罗里达州棕榈滩的Applied Digital Solutions有限公司近期正将这项技术从学术研究的范围扩大到普通人的生活中，即在普通人的手掌和身体中植入芯片。
　　该公司称最近他们已经向美国食品药物管理局提出申请，研制植入人体的VeriChip微型芯片。该公司研制的这种芯片体积大约只有一粒大米大小，里面载入译成代码的各种信息，然后将其植入人体表皮下。当附近的信息阅读器扫描到芯片的时候，这种微型芯片就会发送出数据，例如发送该人的身份证号码， 而电脑通过辨认身份证号码，将可以提供此人更详细的资料。
　　芯片研究的种种障碍
　　大多数芯片都是所谓的"被动"芯片，这种芯片只有在被附近的信息阅读器扫描到的时候才能发送出数据信息。但是"主动"芯片却可以随时发送出信息。但是这就意味着设计者必须为这种芯片配备某种能量来源，不断地为其提供能量。此外，这种提供能量的设备的体积还必须小到能够嵌入芯片里面才行。
　　而另一个不可忽视的因素则是全球定位系统信息接收芯片，它不但要能植入人体内，并且还应有足够的灵敏度，以接收来自几千英里外的太空定位卫星群发来的信息。
　　除了技术上的限制外，许多人认为这种芯片涉及的法律和隐私问题也同样是需要解决。

这是你生命的最佳时期吗？

Are These the Best Years of Your Life?
he ups and downs of life may seem to have no predictable plan.But scientists now know there are very definite patterns that almost all people share.Even if you've passed some of your "prime",you still have other prime years to experience in the future.Certain important primes seem to peak later in life.
When are you smartest?From 18—25,according to I.Q.scores;but you're wiser and more experienced with increasing age.
You're sharpest in your 20's;around 30,memory begins to decline,particularly your ability to perform mathematical computations.But your I.Q.for other tasks climbs.Your vocabulary at age 45,for example is three times as great as when you Visa Note book Vitamin D2 Vitamin D3 V-notch Cutting Saw    graduated from college.At 60,your brain possesses almost four times as much information as it did at age 21.This trade-off between Warehouse Logistics Shelf Wash cloth sharpness and wisdom has led psychologists to suggest that "maturity quotients"(M.Q.)be adopted for adults.
When are you happiest?You have the best physical sense of yourself from 15to 24;the best professional sense from 40to 49.
Before age 24,we believe that our voip gateway VON DUTCH waffle mould Waiting Chair    happiest years are yet to come;over30,we believe that they're behind us.A National Health Survey agrees:After age 30,we "become more realistic and do not view happiness as a goal in itself.If we maintain our health,achieve professional and emotional goals,then happiness,we feel,will follow". Video Door Phone video player When are you most creative?Generally between 30and 39,but the peak varies with different professions.
Mozart wrote a symphony and four sonatas Wall clock Wall covering Wall decoration wall fan wall lamps    by age eight,and Mendelssohn composed his best known work A Midsummer Night's Dream,at 17,but most of the great music was written by men between 33and 39.Though the peak in most fields comes wallpaper wardrobe wardrobe    early——most Nobel prize winners did their top research in their late 20's and 30's——creative people continue to produce quality work throughout their lives.For the "well-conditioned mind",there is no upper limit.

人生的起伏似乎没有可预知的模式，但是科学家现在发现有一些模式相当明确，绝大多数人都有不例外。即使你度过了一些最佳时期，你仍然会在将来经历另外几个最佳时期。某些最佳期时期似乎在生命的后半段才会到来。
什么时候你最聪明？根据智商得分，你从15岁至25岁最聪明。然而，随着年龄增长，你更加具有智慧和经验。
20多岁的时候你的思维最敏捷；30岁左右，记忆力开始衰退，尤其是你的数学计算能力。然而，你做其他事情的智商提高了。例如45岁时你的词汇量是你刚从大学毕业时的3倍。60岁时你大脑中储存的信息几乎是你21岁时的4倍。敏锐和智慧之间的协调，心理学家们就此提出了在成年人在采用“成熟商”这一概念。
什么时候你的感觉最好？15岁至24岁之间你的身体感觉最好；40岁至49岁之间你对自己的职业感觉最佳。
24岁之前，我们相信自己最快乐的日子尚未到来；过了30岁，我们就认为最快乐的时光已逝去。一项全国性的健康调查也提示了同样的结果：30岁过后，我们变得更加实际，不把幸福当成生命本身的一种目标。我们认为，只要我们保持健康，事业上、情感上称心如意，那么我们就觉得幸福便会随之而来。
什么时候你最富创造力？一般在30岁至39岁之间。但是不同的职业，高峰期也不相同。
莫扎特8岁时就创作了一部交响曲、4首奏鸣曲；门德尔松17岁时就完成了他的最著名的作品《仲夏夜之梦》，但是大部分伟大的音乐作品都是人们在33岁至39岁之间创作出来的。虽然大多数领域的最佳状态来得比较早-----大多数诺贝尔奖获得者都是25岁以后、30多岁时完成他们最出色的研究的----但是创造型的人会在生命中不断地完成高质量的工作。对于“状态良好的大脑”，不存在极限。

南极冰架坍塌加速冰河流动

The impact of climate change on the Antarctic Peninsula is evident in new satellite data, US researchers say.
The collapse of the Larsen B ice shelf two years ago has accelerated the flow of glaciers into the nearby Weddell Sea
It is probable the disintegration in 2002 has now allowed the glaciers to deposit their loads more freely, the team tells Geophysical Research Letters
The Antarctic Peninsula has seen some of the fastest temperature rises on Earth in the last five decades.
The scientists used a variety of data from satellites to track the speed of the glaciers before and after the collapse of Larsen B.
In one study, Ted Scambos of the National Snow and Ice Data Center in Boulder, US, analysed five images taken by the Landsat 7 satellite between January 2000 and February 2003.
The analysis reveals that four glaciers flowing into the now collapsed section of Larsen B increased in speed by between two and six times over the study period.
"If anyone was waiting to find out whether Antarctica would respond quickly to climate warming, I think the answer is yes," said Dr Scambos.
The second report, by Eric Rignot of the US space agency’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, US, showed an eightfold increase in the speed of three glaciers, called Hektoria, Green and Evans, between 2000 and 2003.
Two others, Jorum and Crane, moved twice as quickly at the beginning of 2003 than they did in 2000 and nearly three times as fast by the end of the year.
"These two papers clearly illustrate, YELLOW LATTICE BAG Y-strainer ZD-7 electric medical bed of seven functions for the first time, the relationship between ice shelf collapses caused by climate warming, and accelerated glacier flow," said Dr Rignot.
The extra ice presumably translates into higher sea level. But how much this is raising the level of the oceans isn’t known. x''mas lighting Y VACUUM CLEANER Yarn      The authors of the published papers point out that in other places around the continent, much larger glaciers are also held in check by ice shelves.
The Antarctic Peninsula is one of the three ZD-7 high standard electric medical bed of five functions zinc zipper lanyard Zircom     fastest-warming regions on Earth - temperatures have risen 2.5 degrees in 50 years.
But the picture generally in Antarctica is complicated, ZT Attendant chair (folded to hide under the bed) with temperatures in the interior actually falling over the same period.
There is also some evidence that the zirconia filter zoom stereo microscopes retreat of the West Antarctic ice sheet, on the other side of the peninsula to the Larsen B shelf, has halted.

美国研究者表示，卫星传回的新数据显示，南极半岛的气候变化带来了显著的影响。
两年前崩塌的“守护神B”冰架（巨大的浮动冰层）加快了冰河流入附近的威德尔海的速度。
研究小组对《地球物理研究快报》（Geophysical Research Letters）表示，可能是因为2002年的冰架解体才使得冰河更容易地聚集了能量。
过去的五十年间，南极半岛是地球上气温升高最快的地区之一。
科学家们使用卫星发回的各种数据来研究"守护神B"冰架崩塌之前和之后冰河流动的速度。
在一项研究中，美国国家冰雪数据中心（位于博尔德市）的特德·斯坎博斯对美国地球资源探测卫星7号在2000年1月和2003年2月之间拍摄的五幅图像进行了分析。
分析表明，四条流入“守护神B”冰架现已崩塌部分的冰河在研究期间的流速增加了2至6倍。
斯坎博斯博士说：“如果有人想知道气候变暖是否很快会对南极洲产生影响，我想答案是肯定的。”
埃里克·里戈诺特供职于美国国家航空航天局设在帕萨迪纳市的喷气推进实验室，他所做的第二份报告显示，2000年到2003年间三条分别名为黑克多利亚、格林和埃文斯的冰河的流速增加了8倍。
另外两条分别名为乔洛姆和克莱恩的冰河在2003年初的流速比2000年增加了一倍，到2003年年底，流速几乎增加到原来的3倍。
里戈诺特博士说：“这两份报告第一次清楚地说明了气候变暖导致的冰架崩塌与冰河流速加快之间的关系。”
可以推测，（冰架崩塌产生的）多余的冰块会使海平面高度进一步上升，但上升的程度目前尚不可知。
发表上述论文的作者们指出，在南极大陆的其他地区，还有更大的冰河正处在冰架的包围和阻挡中。
南极半岛是地球上温度升高最快的三个地区之一，其气温在50年间上升了2.5 摄氏度。
但是南极洲的总体情况却很复杂，在因为同一时期内，该地区的地下温度实际上降低了。
还有一些证据显示，与“守护神B”冰架隔南极半岛相望的西南极洲大冰原已经停止了后退。
