他们有的来自共产党，有的来自贫困地区，有的来自大学和办公室，有的来自繁荣的城市和中国的非常穷困的村庄。 他们来了，数以千计，蔑视国家宣传工具的宣传和一个世纪以来的惨痛经历。 在一个寒冷的一月早晨，有乘着时髦的轿车，也有乘破旧的出租车，或骑自行车,或徒步，他们通过安全检查站，没有转回去，既使警察拍了照片并且把他们的名字记录在国家安全机构的档案上。 慢慢地，他们在北京西部郊外的一座浩大的公墓前聚合了。 那里，在小纪念堂前，在常青叶子围拢的平台上，安睡着他们要来哀悼的人，一个被共产党要求遗忘的老者。

Gosper, chairman of the IOC's press commission, had previously said that internet access for the 21,500 media accredited for the Aug. 8-24 Games would be "open". "I ... now understand that some IOC officials negotiated with the Chinese that some sensitive sites would be blocked on the basis they were not considered Games related," the Australian told Reuters on Wednesday.

wow,nice!melamine desert!! so funny to see this vedio while the production is in quality trouble now ashamed

I’m getting a distinct sense that the entrepreneurs here in the U.K. are so dependent on public sector funding that commercial applicability suffers. All of the pitches I’ve seen seem to suffer from this.

此话是广东电视台就陈冠希事件采访一路人说的，之后迅速红遍大江南北，甚至衍生出了“酱油族”。

留言里提到：Censorship is accepted in China - 99% of internet users don't care。那这是不是真的呢？百分之九十九这么高的几率我不敢确定，大部分这个词我还是敢用的。我武断的觉得，比之Linux的用户们，更多的人似乎更不太清楚GFW的存在，所以网络审查于他们来说基本上是一种模糊甚至根本不存在的概念。推而广之，有多少人知道2006年被禁的八本书？有多少人知道曾经被走狗媒体们报道过的高耀洁老人现在正在被忠国正腐软禁？有多少人知道陈光诚也获得了时代杂志亚洲英雄的称号？有多少人知道广电总局规定2007年黄金时间只准播放主旋律的电视剧？有多少人知道现在省级电视台需要播放的电视剧都要送到广电总局层层审批？有多少人关心现在是不是讲述婚姻三角恋的电视剧为什么少了？有多少人关心现在看到的境外动画片也少了？没有多少吧？

以至于我一个刚从德国回来的同学跟我说她觉得世界上所有国家都在拼命丑化忠国，唯有CCTV的新闻才是事实的真相。回头再看这些自诩会独立思考的宣言，就有些荒诞可笑了。Lie_Ex说有些人习惯于把自己的自由换成面包，现在看来的确如此。

记者们身在现场，感受比我们强烈得多，所以陷入更深，这是一定的。但是传媒这样整齐规一下去，会出问题。后方的人应该做点什么。“对着那份美好的心愿，心在苦涩路在艰难，只怕梦到中途又难圆，狂风暴雨老天颠连。”

Both China and the Dalai Lama exaggerate, and the historical evidence about Tibet is contradictory. One can make a good case that Tibet has been a part of China at least since 1720. One can also make a good case that Tibet became independent around 1911. The evidence is simply mixed. A deal to resolve the Tibet question is still attainable. The Dalai Lama would have to put aside claims to vast areas outside the present “Tibet Autonomous Region,” and he would have to accept much less political autonomy than he wants. China would have to ease religious controls and allow the Dalai Lama to return as a spiritual leader. Most important, Beijing would have to end Han Chinese migration to all Tibetan areas, to preserve their Tibetan character.

Oliver, this is incredible!! Thanks for getting this info out to people in such an easy to browse way. Thanks for all your awareness building about the Sichuan Earthquake to the English speaking world.

Over the last 18 months, industry, academics and human rights groups have been working on a voluntary code of conduct for companies doing business in repressive countries. The code, when finished, would include an enforcement process and independent monitoring, an element some companies are fighting.Although a voluntary approach is a good start, Ganesan said, it likely won't go far enough. Human Rights Watch endorses a regulatory framework, including penalties to hold companies accountable.

谢谢你们的掌声──甚至在我开口讲话之前就鼓掌，对此我非常感激。
