Subways
Posted on Friday March 27th, 2009 by Jebediah Reed
To give some sense of the pace of public works
construction in China, the city of Guangzhou is planning to open
83 miles of new subway lines by the end of next year.
Meanwhile, New York ? a city of about the same size ? has
been playing around with the 1.7-mile Second Avenue line for
decades now. China also builds subways rather cheaply ? $100
million per mile versus $ 2.4 billion per mile in the Big Apple.
Not surprisingly, projects there are more aggressive in all
respects: there are 60 tunnel boring machines operating in
Guangzhou, while only one is slated for the Second Avenue
project; workers put in five 12-hour shifts a week (and if they
don't like it, they can go pound glacial till); and seizing property
is a breeze.
An article in the Business section of today's NY Times
(Clash of Subways and Car Culture in Chinese Cities by Keith
Bradsher) [VERB] a smart look at the forces at play as China
goes on a transit infrastructure spending spree while it
simultaneously becomes evermore sprawling and car-centric.
Here's one interesting passage, [CONJUNCTION] the
story is worth reading in its entirety:
Western mass transit experts applaud China for investing
billions in systems that will put less stress on the environment
and on cities. But they warn that other Chinese policies, like
allowing real estate developers to build sprawling new suburbs,
undermine the benefits of the mass transit boom.
Mr. Chan Shao Zhang , a 67-year-old engineer in charge
of the works in Guangzhou, defended Guangzhou's combination
of cars and subways, saying that the city built a subway line to a new Toyota assembly plant to help employees and suppliers
reach it.
Subways have been most competitive in cities like New
York that have high prices for parking, and tolls for bridges and
tunnels, discouraging car use. Few Chinese cities have been
willing to follow suit, other than Shanghai, which charges a fee of
several thousand dollars for each license plate.
The cost and physical limitations of subways have
discouraged most cities from building new ones. For instance,
only Tokyo has a subway system that carries more people than
its buses. The buses are cheaper and able to serve far more
streets but move more slowly, pollute more and contribute to
traffic congestion.
China has reason to worry. It surpassed the United
States in total vehicle sales for the first time in January, although
the United States remained slightly ahead in car sales. But in
February, China overtook the United States in both, in part
because the global downturn has hurt auto sales much more in
the United States than in China.
There are many countervaling forces ..X.. China has
passed its own stimulus package and the government is eager
to put people to work, create economic activity, and build
modern infrastructure. The Guangzhou project is part of major
national transit buildout. But the nation's cities are also sprawling
beasts, and in that sense, more suited to cars than trains. Not
shockingly, many Chinese prefer the former.

YOUTH PROLONGED: OLD AGE POSTPONED
by Robert Weale (King's College London, UK)
What exactly is human ageing? Can it be slowed down?
These questions have puzzled scientists and laymen alike
for generations, and continue to do so today. The author
addresses these thought-provoking issues by challenging
pre-conceived notions of age-perception, age-acceptance
and inter-age relations. Pertinent matters of age-related
communication are dealt with, and the reader is treated to
a grand tour of the latest theories of ageing, age-related
biological changes and age-related diseases, such as
Alzheimer's Disease. Here, the author's expertise in agerelated
eye diseases truly comes into its own.
Weale's unique work not only underlines important
genetic and avoidable risk factors but gives ample
consideration to possible consequences stemming from
different early lifestyles. Readers will re-consider their
ideas of what it means to age, and gain a better
understanding of what can and cannot slow down the
process of ageing.

In Brazil, federal and state court systems have used
technology in the last years, but the experience and coverage is
mixed. In the early 1990s, one of the major initiatives of the federal
judiciary has been the computerization of electoral courts. This
experience and other reforms have motivated some states judiciaries
to advance court automation in different jurisdictions, in aspects
such as public information, case management, and document
archiving. Studies indicate that the needs for information technology
and communications use are rising as many state court systems lag1
behind in investments.
The modernization of the documentary archives of the
federal judiciary is a fairly recent initiative that has been motivated
by a growing concern for the preservation of the country's historical
archive, and by the need to manage the exponential growth of current
archives. Paper archives constitute an enormous investment in terms
of time and space, documents deteriorate or are lost, and information
retrieval can be laborious. The modernization of archives involves
not only the rationalization of existing resources and collections, but
also the introduction of new technologies for the electronic storage
and retrieval of current documents.
In May 1998, the Supreme Federal Tribunal initiated a
project of reform, and in early 2000 carried out a survey to identify
the problem areas relating to infrastructure, access, archiving policy,
training and management strategies. The survey results constitute an
important first step in the development of a long-term technical and
administrative policy for the management of judicial archives.
Follow on work has so far collected information from all the archiveholding
judicial institutions in the area of the capital, Brasília.
There are on average 4 archivists per institution, which
means one archivist for every 751 meters of documents. The
technical equipment is for the most part antiquated, with only 37%
of archives equipped with computer terminals. Most of the judicial
archives do not, therefore, have either the technical or personnel
resources necessary for the efficient management, storage and
retrieval of documents.

mixed. In the early 1990s, one of the major initiatives of the federal
judiciary has been the computerization of electoral courts. This
experience and other reforms have motivated some states judiciaries
to advance court automation in different jurisdictions, in aspects
such as public information, case management, and document
archiving. Studies indicate that the needs for information technology
and communications use are rising as many state court systems lag1
behind in investments.
The modernization of the documentary archives of the
federal judiciary is a fairly recent initiative that has been motivated
by a growing concern for the preservation of the country's historical
archive, and by the need to manage the exponential growth of current
archives. Paper archives constitute an enormous investment in terms
of time and space, documents deteriorate or are lost, and information
retrieval can be laborious. The modernization of archives involves
not only the rationalization of existing resources and collections, but
also the introduction of new technologies for the electronic storage
and retrieval of current documents.
In May 1998, the Supreme Federal Tribunal initiated a
project of reform, and in early 2000 carried out a survey to identify
the problem areas relating to infrastructure, access, archiving policy,
training and management strategies. The survey results constitute an
important first step in the development of a long-term technical and
administrative policy for the management of judicial archives.
Follow on work has so far collected information from all the archiveholding
judicial institutions in the area of the capital, Brasília.
There are on average 4 archivists per institution, which
means one archivist for every 751 meters of documents. The
technical equipment is for the most part antiquated, with only 37%
of archives equipped with computer terminals. Most of the judicial
archives do not, therefore, have either the technical or personnel
resources necessary for the efficient management, storage and
retrieval of documents.
- a delay between two things happening.
Based on the passage above, it is correct to say that
the survey undertaken by the Supreme Federal Tribunal is a first stage to set up a policy for the management of judicial archives in the long run.
