人权 奥运会

shared by isaac Mao on 26 Jul 08 - Cached
  • 　　本書讓兩岸共同看見世界本小與人性本同，理解到人權才是走向融合的大基礎。——群智基金會創始人  毛向輝
  • 北京，是中國的首都，也是中國政治權力中心，經常成為中國政權的代稱，自然因著奧運展示舞台的設計，傾全力地擦脂抹粉。　　真實的北京，與為了迎接奧運而生的北京，自然是不同風貌，而在這濃妝豔抹、誇耀虛華的背後，隱藏著多少犧牲與逼迫，多少流離與破壞，多少放棄與失去……？　　本書想要記錄的，是卸妝後真實的北京，是強力宣傳之外的北京風景，是看不見的北京，是回歸人的本質之後，才能看見的北京！

    Internet Helps Liberate, Create Music in China By Laura Sydell Listen Now [7 min 48 sec] add to playlist Chinese electronic musician B6 B6, a Shanghai-based electronic musician, explored Western music first on pirated CDs and then at music-sharing sites on the Web. Now he collaborates online with other performers. B6's studio equipment -- a jumble of keyboards, etc. Enlarge B6 works out of a home studio in a Shanghai high-rise. Above, some of his musical arsenal. Discover China's Indie Music Neocha Web site image Neocha.com With Sean Leow, B6 co-founded the music-sharing site Neocha.com, an ad-supported service that lets listeners discover music and pays musicians a share of advertising revenue. * Neocha.com * Neocha's "Next" Player Morning Edition, June 25, 2008 - Second in a three-part series. When America was rocking to the Beatles and Jimi Hendrix, the airwaves in China were dominated by songs with lyrics from Chairman Mao's Little Red Book. It's more open today, but the Communist government still bans anything that mentions sex or violence, or that has "low class humor" - which bans an awful lot of American music. So the music most likely to come pouring out of the radio in China is syrupy ballads usually produced in Hong Kong or Taiwan. But Chinese musicians and fans are finding a whole new universe of sound on the Internet. And it's helping to create and nourish a new generation of independent artists in China. From Black-Market Discs to Napster and Beyond One of them is B6, a 27-year-old electronic musician. He lives and works on the first floor of a high-rise on the outskirts of Shanghai. He's part of China's burgeoning electronic-music scene. Growing up, the CDs B6 listened to were mostly sold on the black market. "When I was in high school, I used to listen to rock 'n' roll music," he says. "At that time, it was very difficult to get foreign or Western music." And then, in 1999, the Internet came to China - and B6 and his fr

中国 共产党 历史 日本

shared by isaac Mao on 16 Oct 08 - Cached
  • 佐佐木：過去﹐日本軍國主義侵略中國﹐給你們帶來災難﹐我們感到很抱歉。 毛澤東：用不著抱歉。日本軍國主義給中國帶來很大的「利益」﹐有了他們﹐中國人民奪取了政權。如果沒有日本「皇軍」﹐我們要奪取政權是不可能的。 毛澤東繼續說：我們不談過去了。過去的事﹐從某種意義上說﹐是好事情﹐對我們有幫助。你們看﹐中國人民不是奪取了政權嗎？
  • 儘管這段歷史就如中國共產黨在延安靠種鴉片起家那樣的令數以億計的「毛迷」難堪﹐但歷史始終要尊重的。可惜這書讀過的人應該很少﹐而且似已絕版。

书店 商业 经营

shared by isaac Mao on 11 Jun 08 - Cached
  • 最後我也要再次囉哩囉唆地提醒大家一件事，這一年多來我們已經聽了太多改善書店經營的意見了，有些可以參考的我們會放在心上，其他的，比方多擺桌椅賣咖啡、邀請名人辦活動、或者在門口做霓虹燈吸引顧客之類的，就不用再說了。(((我們聽了至少兩百次了啦)))，除非有絕佳的意見───比方你可以提供某個風景優美、地方寬闊、免租金的店面───否則請大家就當作是看一篇記述書店近況的文章就好了，不需要做無謂的感傷，因為我們開書店的期間雖然很窮，但是很快樂，應該是這輩子最快樂的一段時間。

Economy Sustainability

shared by isaac Mao on 26 Nov 08 - Cached
  • In 1972, the seminal book Limits to Growth by a group called the Club of Rome claimed that exponential growth would eventually lead to economic and environmental collapse.
  • Yet Turner reckons his report [pdf format] shows that a sustainable economy is attainable. "We wouldn't have to go back to the caves," he says.

Is Web 2.0 Living on Thin Air? - Tom Davenport - 0 views

internetwatch reading thinking web2.0

shared by Roger Chen on 15 Oct 08 - Cached
  • Did you wonder whether our economy had grown a little overly precious? How can we really be producing value if we're all sitting around blogging and Facebook-friending each other?
  • 1999 the British think-tanker Charles Leadbeater published the book Living on Thin Air. It was both an appealing notion and a scary one: that we no longer have to produce anything but ideas. And that was even before Web 2.0--a platform for everyone to share their ideas, opinions, favorite tunes, and relationship statuses with each other. It was all a lot of fun, but I occasionally wondered whether it was really good for economic productivity.
  • it wouldn't be a bad outcome if the current crisis led to a more diligent, industrious economic climate. Chatting and socializing are important things, but they're not the only things.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • But it seems to me that many of the activities, business models, and assumptions behind social media are a bit fluffy, and that fluffiness is going to be difficult to maintain in the post-bubble environment we now find ourselves in.
  • Socializing as a distraction has always existed. Though there are more ways to do this now, people still have the ability to recognize that which produces real value in their life, both economically and socially. Balance between these has always been a challenge.
  • A few years from now, only the successful, profitable, and useful will survive.

Hujia 胡佳 HumanRights

shared by isaac Mao on 26 Oct 08 - Cached
  • Apparently we missed that page of the international rule book. We do recall Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, though. That's the portion of the United Nations' seminal 1948 document that states: "Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers."
  • If Chinese leaders are tired of all the international attention being given to Hu, there's a better solution than high dudgeon from the Foreign Ministry: They could set him free.

民主 自由

  • 1973年在西方出版《古拉格群岛》，由作者的个人经历 ，上百人的回忆、报告、书信，以及苏联官方和西方的资料组成，分七大部分叙述1918～1956年，特别是斯大林执政期间，苏联各地关押迫害数百万人的（由于是不同时期，分批处决，具体数字难以统计）集中营的情况 ，书中描述的情况令人发指。索尔仁尼琴1945年至1953因与友人通信中指责斯大林而被捕；1967年散发对本国书刊检查制度的“公开信“，抗议苏联的报刊检查制度而被苏联第四次作家代表大会谴责为叛徒，1969年他被开除出苏联作家协会。1974年2月13日他被驱逐出境到西德，后流亡美国。

  • 畅销书市场的两大主流读者 1）11-30岁的读者，其中尤以11-16岁的市场最大。16岁以下的人群的消费多半是非理性的，书对他们来说，只是娱乐产品的一种而已。 2）60岁以上的读者。这部分的市场如今被“百家讲坛”霸占着。
  • 新闻出版总署下属中国出版科学研究所进行了一项调查，2007年中国人的图书阅读率（每年至少读一本书的读者在识字者中的比例）仅为34%。这个数字在1999年是60.4%，到2003年还有51.7%，2005年时为48.7%，首次跌破了50%。

  • 日本、台湾的手作杂货类书在近年很受欢迎，而中国现在也跟着这股潮流；但由本土作者原创制作的采访全球手作艺人的书，也许至今我们是唯一的一本。在各种台版或日版的引进书的比较下，我们自信：毫不逊色。

    在affa出版的书里，采访了全世界各地的创作人，他们大部分很普通、很平凡、但都有自己的梦想。在书里，他们的创作品并无经过刻意修饰，一切都是日常的样子，甚至有些图片显得模糊，但这些缺陷都来自生活的真实。你可以跟着他们学做手工，或者只是偶尔翻几页，他们的所爱所想是真诚而快乐的，让你感受到"创作"并不深奥，那些都是生活的一部分，而且是充满人情味的……
