TEC-1060, TEC-1063, TEC-1068, TEC-1088 and TEC-1130, the Chinese government has implemented regulations limiting the sulphur content of fuel oils used onboard ships to 0.5% m/m. Currently, as shown in the following table, ships only berthing at core port areas within the Pearl River Delta or the Bohai Rim, or at any ports within the Yangtze River Delta are required to use fuel oils whose sulphur content does not exceed 0.5% m/m; however, starting on 1 January 2018, all ships berthing at any ports within the Pearl River Delta, the Bohai Rim or the Yangtze River Delta will be required to use fuel oils whose sulphur content does not exceed 0.5% m/m. Therefore, at the time of bunkering, please make sure that the sulphur content of the fuel oil used onboard ship on and after that date satisfies the new limit value (0.5% m/m).

Tyler, Denis Burnham The MARCS Institute, Western Sydney University, Australia {yanping.li,c.best,m.tyler,d.burnham}@westernsydney.edu.au Perceptual Assimilation Model (PAM) [8-9]. Both models Abstract claim that second language (L2) learners are unable to discern The present study investigated tone variations in regionally certain phonetic differences between segments in their first accented Mandarin (i.e., Standard Mandarin [SM] spoken by language (L1) and L2 because of their “equivalence dialectal Chinese speakers) as influenced by the varying tone classification” (SLM) or “perceptual assimilation” (PAM) of systems of their native dialects. 12 female speakers, four each L2 phones to their native phonemes, resulting in inaccurate L2 from Guangzhou, Shanghai and Yantai, were recruited to pronunciation. From SLM and PAM viewpoints, we would produce monosyllabic words in SM that included minimal expect Shanghai speakers’ production of Mandarin tones to contrasts among the four Mandarin lexical tones. Since SM differ from those by native Beijing Mandarin speakers given developed from the Beijing dialect, their pronunciations were that SM has four lexical tones (i.e., T1 has high-level pitch, T2 compared to the same Mandarin words produced by four high-rising pitch, T3 low-dipping pitch, and T4 high-falling Beijing female speakers. Regional Mandarin speakers pitch [10]), but the five-tone inventory of the Shanghai dialect successfully produced the four Mandarin lexical tones, but their lacks a dipping tone. Since Tone 3 in SM has a low falling- productions varied from SM.

(British Library) ABOUT THE ARCHIVE China and the Modern World: Imperial China and the West Part I, 1815–1881 is digitised from the FO 17 series of British Foreign Office Files—Foreign Office: Political and Other Departments: General Correspondence before 1906, China— held at the National Archives, UK, providing a vast and significant primary source for researching every aspect of Chinese-British relations during the nineteenth century, ranging from diplomacy to trade, economics, politics, warfare, emigration, translation and law. This first part includes all content from FO 17 volumes 1–872. Source Library Number of Images The National Archives, UK Approximately 532,000 CONTENT From Lord Amherst’s mission at the start of the nineteenth century, through the trading monopoly of the Canton System, and the Opium Wars of 1839–1842 and 1856–1860, Britain and other foreign powers gradually gained commercial, legal, and territorial rights in China. Imperial China and the West provides correspondence from the Factories of Canton (modern Guangzhou) and from the missionaries and diplomats who entered China in the early nineteenth century, as well as from the envoys and missions sent to China from Britain and the later legation and consulates. The documents comprising this collection include communications to and from the British legation, first at Hong Kong and later at Peking, and British consuls at Shanghai, Amoy (Xiamen), Swatow (Shantou), Hankow (Hankou), Newchwang (Yingkou), Chefoo (Yantai), Formosa (Taiwan), and more.
  • Preliminary Determinations in the Antidumping Duty Investigations On

    Preliminary Determinations in the Antidumping Duty Investigations On

    FACT SHEET Preliminary Determinations in the Antidumping Duty Investigations on Certain Frozen and Canned Warmwater Shrimp from the People's Republic of China and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam On July 6, the Department announced its preliminary determinations in the antidumping duty investigations on imports of certain frozen and canned warmwater shrimp from the People’s Republic of China (PRC) and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam (Vietnam). We preliminarily find that with the exception of one Chinese producer/exporter, Zhangjiang Guolian Aquatic Products Co., Ltd., Chinese and Vietnamese producers/exporters have sold frozen and canned warmwater shrimp in the U.S. market at less than fair value, with margins ranging from 7.67 percent to 112.81 percent for imports from the PRC and 12.11 percent to 93.13 percent for imports from Vietnam. Next Steps: Interested parties are invited to submit comments on these preliminary determinations. The Department will consider all submitted comments along with record evidence before making its final determinations on or about November 24, 2004. If the Department makes a final affirmative determination in either or both investigations, the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) is scheduled to make its final injury determinations on or about January 8, 2005. If the ITC makes a final affirmative determination that imports are materially injuring, or threatening to materially injure, the domestic industry, the Department will issue antidumping duty orders and will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (Customs) to collect cash deposits on imports of subject merchandise. Companies Qualifying for a “Separate Rate”: Based on the voluntary questionnaire responses submitted by certain Chinese and Vietnamese companies, the Department has preliminarily determined that these companies have demonstrated an absence of government control that is required to be eligible to receive “separate-rate” status.

    Genetic Diversity of 14 Indigenous Grey Goose Breeds in China Based on Microsatellite Markers

    1 Genetic Diversity of 14 Indigenous Grey Goose Breeds in China Based on Microsatellite Markers Y. J. Tu*, K. W. Chen, S. J. Zhang, Q. P. Tang, Y. S. Gao and N. Yang1 Poultry Institute, Chinese academy of agriculture science, Yangzhou 225003, P. R. China ABSTRACT : This experiment first cloned some microsatellite sequences for goose species by magnetic beads enriched method and studied the genetic structure research of 14 indigenous grey goose breeds using 19 developed and 12 searched microsatellite markers with middle polymorphism. According to the allele frequencies of 31 microsatellite sites, mean heterozygosity (H), polymorphism information content (PIC) and DA genetic distances were calculated for 31-microsatellite sites. The results showed that 25 of 31microsatellite sites were middle polymorphic, so the 25 microsatellite markers were effective markers for analysis of genetic relationship among goose breeds. The mean heterozygosity was between 0.4985 and 0.6916. The highest was in the Xupu (0.6916), and in the Yan was the lowest (0.4985) which was consistent with that of PIC. The phylogenetic tree was completed through analysis of UPGMA. Fencheng Grey, Shoutou, Yangjiang and Magang were grouped firstly, then Xongguo Grey, Wugang Tong, Changle and Youjiang were the second group; Gang, Yan Xupu and Yili were the third group; Yongkang Grey and Wuzeng were the fourth group. The results could provide basic molecular data for the research on the characteristics of local breeds in the eastern China, and a scientific basis for the conservation and utilization of those breeds.
