'Indian Shipping Industry' available now through Aarkstore Enterprise
Shipping Industry is one of the most cyclic industries. Being a global industry, it is affected by a whole gamut of factors which range from world economic condition, political events, natural disasters to age of existing vessels, new vessel delivery schedules, availability of ship building slots with ship yards, government regulations etc.
Besides being characterized by volatile revenue stream, the shipping industry is also highly capital intensive. A single ship can cost anything between US $20 Mn to US $300 Mn. Commoditized product coupled with the fact that globally there are a large number of players in this segment; no single company has significant pricing power.
The total world shipping tonnage, as on 1st January 2007, stood at 1014.55 Mn DWT [Dry Bulk (35%), Wet Bulk (37%), Containerships (12%), General cargo (10%) and others (6%)]. The Indian tonnage, as on 1st October 2007, stood at 15.08 Mn DWT [Dry Bulk (34%), Wet Bulk (58%), Containerships (1%), others (7%)].
In 2007, the shipping industry saw a clear dichotomy between the wet bulk and the dry bulk freight market. While the dry bulk freight rates moved from strength to strength during the greater part of the year in 2007, the tanker market saw a downturn in the freight rates as compared to the rates witnessed in 2006. For containership freight market, 2007 was a year of consolidation after having witnessed a meltdown in 2006.
The wet bulk market remained suppressed in 2007 due to decreased movement of crude oil. The orderbook position at the beginning of 2008 was very high. With world tanker fleet being young not much tonnage deletion is expected in the next 2-3 years. A probable slowdown in US economy and its consequent impact on world economy will thus decide the balance between cargo movement and tanker tonnage supply.
Dry bulk cargo constitutes of two main commodities: iron ore and coal. Iron ore trade is largely driven by the demands of the Chinese steel industry. Chinese iron ore demand remained strong in CY 2007. As 83% of India’s iron ore exports are to China, the trade volumes arising out of India will also depend, to some extent, on the prospects of Chinese steel industry. The demand for coal is expected to remain strong from the Asian countries. The orderbook position at the beginning of 2008 seemed very high. A timely delivery of the new buildings will thus decide the actual tonnage addition and consequently the demand – supply balance.
With 2-2.5 times relationship with GDP growth rate, the container trade volumes will continue to grow exponentially. The cargo growth will occur due to increase in the volumes of the currently containerized commodities as well as due to containerization of newer commodities. With orderbook position at precariously high levels, it remains to be seen whether the world containerized cargo is able to absorb the new tonnage.
India will be a major contributor to the incremental growth of cargo in all the segments in the coming years. As per NMDP projections, the total cargo traffic at the Indian ports is expected to grow at a CAGR of 13.58% upto FY12 with the POL, coal and container traffic growth remaining strong. Though the cargo emanating from India is expected to remain healthy, the Indian shipping industry can take advantage of this opportunity only if the Indian government plays a facilitative role. At present the most pressing problem faced by the industry is that of manning. Under Merchant Shipping Act, ships with Indian flags need to necessarily be manned by Indian crew. As there is a shortage of officers (due to flight of officers to foreign flags), the Indian shipping companies find it difficult to meet this requirement. Besides this the Industry is also saddled with other challenges like onerous tax structures (12 taxes), multiplicity of regulations, falling cargo support from TRANCHART, infrastructure constraints etc.
To encourage the addition of tonnage under Indian flag, the Indian government needs to provide conducive financial and fiscal/legal environments which are at par with international standards, barring which Indian shipping companies may explore possibilities of adding tonnage outside India by setting up subsidiaries in countries with more favorable environment.

Where can i get a web application to test?
I need an application that i could use to write test cases on. You know the kind of stuff we have at work, an application with login, transactions, reports, address book, messaging etc you know what I am talking about. An enterprise application that i could host locally on an application server like tomcat and uses some RDBMS for back end like SQL, mysql or Oracle. Is such an application available for download or purchase?
I know such an application comes bundled with QTP. It's a flight booking application but it's really small. I need an application that I can at least write 2000 test cases for. and this thing must open in a web-browser. I don't want to use google or yahoo mail those aren't applications. Also I should be able to host this locally.
try kingmailer or go back to googl and make sure you specify correctly what you are looking for and you may find it for download or they may offer you similer sites (3rd party) products or something... good luck

Star Trek Enterprise - The Complete Second Season List Price: $69.98 Sale Price: $52.99 Used From: $44.99 Average Rating: ![]() |

With Captain Jonathan Archer (Scott Bakula) trapped in the 31st century, season 2 of Enterprise opens with a rousing resolution to season 1's cliffhanger finale. The first four episodes instantly became fan favorites: "Shockwave, Part II" advances the Suliban's role in the Temporal Cold War; "Carbon Creek" reveals the real first contact (albeit a secret one) between humans and Vulcans in Pennsylvania in 1957, allowing Jolene Blalock to play T'Pol's "second foremother" in a Sputnik-era scenario; in "Minefield," Reed (Dominick Keating) is nearly killed by an explosive device attached to Enterprise's hull; the damage is repaired in "Dead Stop," featuring award-winning digital modeling effects as the disabled Enterprise encounters a mysterious automated space station. Season 2 also emphasizes Archer's ongoing friction with the Vulcan High Command, exacerbated when T'Pol's career is threatened (in "Stigma") by her involuntary involvement with ostracized mind-melders. Connections to the original Star Trek (series and films) continue with episodes involving Tellarites, Tholians, Klingons, Andorians, and even a brief appearance by a Tribble (one of many occasions for humor in Dr. Phlox's sickbay, the setting of many of the season's finest dialogue-driven scenes). Early warp-drive history is also explored in "First Flight," a Right Stuff-like episode guest-starring Keith Carradine as Archer's friend and rival in breaking the Warp 2 barrier. Consisting primarily of stand-alone episodes that integrate ongoing story arcs, season 2 showcases the primary cast with generally good results: Mayweather (Anthony Montgomery) visits the "boomer" cargo ship he was raised on in "Horizon"; Hoshi (Linda Park) experiences unsettling transporter symptoms in "Vanishing Point"; and Tucker (Connor Trineer) plays a pivotal role in several episodes, notably "Dawn," "Precious Cargo" and "Cogenitor." And while "Regeneration" provoked controversy among fans for introducing the yet unnamed Borg in an early Starfleet context, it's a fine episode (with echoes of The Thing) that holds up to scrutiny, while others (including "The Crossing," "The Breach" and "Cogenitor") feel somewhat recycled, indicating the challenge of finding new ideas in the Star Trek canon. Overall, however, season 2 is consistently strong, with several episodes directed by cast alumni from previous Trek series, including NextGen's LeVar Burton, and Voyager's Roxanne Dawson and Robert Duncan McNeill. They all lead up to a devastating attack on Earth (with seven million casualties, including Trip's younger sister) in "The Expanse," ending the season with high-stakes mystery as Enterprise enters a treacherous region of space in search of the Xindi, an enemy race that factors heavily in season 3. Abundant bonus features include a generous selection of deleted scenes (non-essential, but interesting to fans); audio commentary (on "Dead Stop" and "Regeneration") by writers Mike Sussman and Phyllis Strong, who explain the challenge of writing under constantly shifting production conditions; and text commentary (on "Stigma" and "First Flight"), in which Trek veterans Michael and Denise Okuda demonstrate their encyclopedic knowledge of Star Trek fact and fiction. Six Easter eggs, known as "NX-01 Files," are hidden on the Special Features menus; they offer brief glimpses into specific aspects of production, including set recycling and art direction. "Enterprise" secrets are revealed for those who pay meticulous attention to detail; "Inside 'A Night in Sickbay'" offers a behind-the-scenes assessment of that memorable episode; and "LeVar Burton: Star Trek Director" celebrates the actor's smooth transition to directing after his stint on Next Generation. "Enterprise Profile: Jolene Blalock" is a tribute to the sexy actress by her fellow cast members and executive producers Brannon Braga and Rick Berman, including Blalock's assessment of T'Pol's pivotal role as Enterprise's resident Vulcan. Best of all, however, are the hilarious outtakes: They show the cast as a family unit, combining hard work with humor as the second season progresses. --Jeff Shannon Set in the year 2151, Captain Jonathan Archer and his crew explore space aboard the newly commissioned starship Enterprise. |
