Basic Conditions of the Project 1.1 Brief Introduction of the Project The World Bank Loan is used to harness the key plain depression, the acreage of which is 1769.90 square kilometers, concerning the Nansi Lake Binhu depression in Jining, Yanyun depression in Zaozhuang, Tancang depression in Linyi. The area of depression in Jining is about 648.70 square kilometers, distributed in the surrounding areas of Nansi Lake; 183.07 square kilometers of Zaozhuang distributed in Binhu east of Nansi Lake and Hanzhuang canal coast; 938.13 square kilometers of Linyi, distributed in the Baima and Wutan River Valley in Tancang plain area. Based on the basic conditions and the problems in the key depression in Huaihe River Valley, under the principle of putting the most seriously affected area at the top of the list, the Project focuses on resolving the problems of low standard of flood control and drainage, as well as damage and serious ageing problems of the existing engineering. The overall planning layout is as follows: Waterway works: it is prevalent in the depressions with serious sedimentation and low standard of flood control and drainage. This Project plans to dredge a 90.342 kilometers long riverway following the standard of flood control and to rehabitate or build new dikes in order to improve the ability of flood control and drainage. Building works: mostly built in the 1960s and 1970s, the existing buildings in the depression are small-scaled and serious damaged. In view of the existing problems of different buildings and the need of flood control and drainage in depression area, comprehensive actions are taken such as building new ones, maintaining or strengthening the old ones. The newly built or reconstructed works include 29 culvert gates, 6 bridges and 15 drainage and irrigation stations, as well rehabitation works include 25 drainage and irrigation stations. According to the implementation schedule, the period is 4-year. In the first year the land requisition is 132.5 mu and 3 families need removal, and there are 7 other families being impacted to ancillary buildings, in which, 5 families with non- certificated buildings and 2 families with ancillary buildings. Table 1-1-1 shows the main construction in the first year.

The World Bank (WB), Planning and Programing Department of MWR, together with Rural Economic Depatment of National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), International Cooperation, Sciense and Technology Department of MWR, Huai River Commission (HRC), as well as four concerning provincial government of Henan, Anhui, Jiangsu and Shandong, cooperated to prepare this Project of Huai River Basin Flood Management and Drainage Improvement (HFMDIP). The government of Henan, Anhui, Jiangsu and Shandong successively disclosed concerning files as Yu (Henan) Water Planning 2003 176 Wan (Anhui) Water Planing 2003 902, Su (jiangsu) Water Planning 2003 214, and Lu (Shandong) Water Planning 2003 166, to apply to this Project. The State Council held a meeting to boost the preparation of depression impreovement in Huai river basin. Therefore, the MWR general office issued a Notice on a Certain Problems about Depression Improvement using Loan of World Bank, [2004]115. In April 2005, the China Water Huai River Engineering Co., LTD. (CWHRE) consolidated the papers of four provinces into the Feasibility Study of HFMDIP, and in May, Oct. and Nov., the General Institute of Water and Electricity Program and Planning (GIWEPP) examined and revised the Study, with approvement in substance. In April 2006, on the basis of the Feasibility Study, CWHRE organized the program agencies of four provincies to work out the Proposal of HFMDIP, which was evaluated by China International Engineering Consultation Company (CIECC) in July 21st to 24th 2006. The Rural Economic Department of NDRC approved with Approvement of the Proposal on HFMDIP using Loan of World Bank, [2008]1496. From Oct. 2005, the World Bank mission of identification, preparation and pre- evaluation visited China for check and evaluation about the Project preparation, with 4 Resettlement Action Plan (Year 1) in Shandong recommendations of approvement basically, issuing the Aide-memoire of pre- evaluation mission about HFMDIP using Loan of World Bank. Based on the recommendations of CIECC and Aide-memoire of pre-evaluation mission, the four governments worked out their own Feasibility Study, and the first- year resettlement plan in Shandong was revised on this base. From Oct. 27th to Nov. 15th, 2008, the evaluation mission of World Bank checked and revised the papers with recommendations, and came into Adide-memoire. The first-year resettlement plan in Shandong was revised again acoordingly and formed into this Paper. 1.3 Benefited Areas and Affected Areas by the Project The affected areas of the project covers 13 counties (cities, districts) in Zaozhuang, Linyi and Jining, totally 30 towns and 150 administrative villages.

  • Establishing 15 IP Tribunals Nationwide, Chinese Courts Further Concentrate Jurisdiction Over IP Matters
    Establishing 15 IP Tribunals Nationwide, Chinese Courts Further Concentrate Jurisdiction Over IP Matters March 15, 2018 Patent and ITC Litigation China has continued to develop its adjudicatory framework for intellectual property disputes with the establishment of three Intellectual Property Tribunals (“IP Tribunals”) this month. This reform began with the establishment of three specialized IP Courts in Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou at the end of 2014, and has been furthered with the establishment of IP Tribunals in 10 provinces and two cities/municipalities around the country. For companies facing an IP dispute in China, understanding this framework in order to select the appropriate jurisdiction for a case can have a significant impact on the time to resolution, as well as the ultimate merits of the case. Most significantly, through the establishment of these IP Tribunals many Chinese courts have been stripped of their jurisdiction over IP matters in favor of the IP Tribunals. This has led to a fundamental change to the forum selection strategies of both multinational and Chinese companies. The three IP Tribunals established on the first two days of March 2018 are located in Tianjin Municipality, and cities of Changsha and Zhengzhou respectively. This brings the number of IP Tribunals that have been set up across 10 provinces and two cities/municipalities in China since January 2017 to a total of 15. The most unique aspect of the specialized IP Tribunals is that they have cross-regional1 and exclusive jurisdiction over IP matters in significant first-instance2 cases (i.e., those generally including disputes involving patents, new varieties of plants, integrated circuit layout and design, technical-related trade secrets, software, the recognition of well-known trademarks, and other IP cases in which the damages sought exceed a certain amount)3.

Tel: 86-150-2100-6037.

Abstract This article depicts the dynamic demonstrations of religions in late imperial and republican Jining. It argues with evidences that the open, tolerant and advanced urban circumstances and atmosphere nurtured the diversity and prosperity of formal religions in Jining in much of the Ming and Qing periods. It also argues that the same air and ethos enabled Jining to less difficultly adapt to the West-led modern epoch, with a notable result of welcoming Christianity, quite exceptional in hinterland China. Keywords: Jining, religions, urban, Grand Canal, hinterland, Christianity I. Introduction: A Special Case beyond Conventional Scholarly Images It seems a commonplace that intellectual and religious beliefs and practices in imperial Chinese inlands were conservative, which encouraged orthodoxy ideology or otherwise turned to heretic sectarianism. It is also commonplace that in the post-Opium War modern era, hinterland China, while being sluggishly appropriated into Westernized modernization, persistently resisted the penetration of Western values and institutes including Christianity.

The main REE-bearing mineral is bastnäsite, with lesser parisite and monazite. REE mineralization occurred at a late stage of hydrothermal evolution and was followed by a sulfide stage. Barite, calcite, and strontianite appear homogeneous in back-scattered electron images and have high REE contents of 103–217, 146–13,120, and 194–16,412 ppm in their mineral lattices, respectively. Two enrichment processes were necessary for the formation of the Weishan deposit: Production of mineralized carbonatite and subsequent enrichment by magmatic–hydrothermal processes. The geological setting and petrographic characteristics of the Weishan deposit indicate that two main factors facilitated REE enrichment: (1) fractures that facilitated circulation of ore-forming fluids and provided space for REE precipitation and (2) high ore fluorite 2 and barite contents resulting in high F− and SO4 − concentrations in the ore-forming fluids that promoted REE transport and deposition.

However, monitoring stations are limited, and the public is everywhere. It is also essential to understand the public’s awareness and behavioral response to air pollution. Air pollution complaint data can more directly reflect the public’s real air quality perception than social media data. Therefore, based on air pollution complaint data and sentiment analysis, we proposed a new air pollution perception index (APPI) in this paper. Firstly, we constructed the emotional dictionary for air pollution and used sentiment analysis to calculate public complaints’ emotional intensity. Secondly, we used the piecewise function to obtain the APPI based on the complaint Kernel density and complaint emotion Kriging interpolation, and we further analyzed the change of center of gravity of the APPI.

  • Emperor's River: China's Grand Canal – Philipp Scholz Rittermann July 1
    Emperor’s River: China’s Grand Canal – Philipp Scholz Rittermann July 1 – November 30, 2014 Harn Museum of Art -- Rubin Gallery Introduction In 2009 and 2010, photographer Philipp Scholz Rittermann traveled along China’s Grand Canal to capture the country’s booming economy, and rapidly changing landscape and social structure. Rittermann’s photographic interests are largely focused on the built environment, and the way people and the planet are transformed by it. He traveled to China first as an invited artist and then on succeeding trips to document this massive waterway. Having mastered, in previous projects, the digital panorama—a format hungry for information—he found his ideal subject in the People’s Republic of China. The number of bridges, boats, scooters, railways, and the subject of the series itself, the Grand Canal, speaks to Rittermann’s fascination with passage. This material manifestation of movement becomes symbolic of our collective human journey in the 21st century. Accelerated passage and progress are the means by which this particular culture, China, and subsequently the world, plunges headlong into the future. Rittermann wants to momentarily arrest these unprecedented changes to reflect on their ramifications. As we voyage out of one century into another, his photographs become lyrical topographical maps from which to chart the course of a brave new world. — Carol McCusker, Curator About the Artist & Series To make his photographs, Philipp Rittermann handholds a digital camera, panning across a scene, making exposures every few seconds, anticipating what is about to happen in each frame. The specific needs of each frame (light, perspective, focal separation) must be understood in a fraction of a second while shooting.

We expect to build more railway lines to offer the possibility to offer more high quality service for the passengers, while the investment is often limited. Therefore, it is very important to decide the pairs of cities to add new railway lines under the condition of limited construction investment in order to optimize the railway line network to maximize the reliability of the railway network to deal with the railway passenger transport task under emergency conditions. In this paper, we firstly define the reliability of the railway networks based on probability theory by analyzing three minor cases. Then we construct a reliability optimization model for the railway network to solve the problem, expecting to enhance the railway network with the limited investment. The goal is to make an optimal decision when choosing where to add new railway lines to maximize the reliability of the whole railway network, taking the construction investment as the main constraint, which is turned to the building mileage limit.
