  • 今天在美术馆看到这样一幅摄影作品
  • 我低下了头，看到了这样一个小牌牌，牌牌上写着：搬运工 然后，我稍微抬了抬头，顺便看了一眼英文：HIV carriers 嘿嘿，我和朋友立刻为我们国家拥有这样高质量负责任的翻译欢呼雀跃 HIV carriers要是看到这样一个翻译，会是什么样的心情…… 智慧的豆友们，会不会我有什么知识上的盲点，难道世界上有一个国际搬运公司叫HIV，还是怎样？

Victim or Victor? China's Olympic Odyssey - WSJ.com - 0 views

  • Modern Chinese nationalism often veers between Mr. Coubertin's and Mr. Maurras's ideas of nationhood. Officially, the government likes to talk about friendship between peoples, and harmony and peace, while at the same time promoting an injured sense of historical Chinese victimhood at the hands of foreign powers. When demonstrations of Chinese nationalism run out of control, with or without official encouragement, the feeling of national hurt can turn to violent aggression. It has been happening of late in the U.S., among other places, when Chinese students attacked Tibetans, or indeed anyone who "offended the feelings of the Chinese people."
  • This type of official patriotism is based on a peculiarly skewed view of history. Rather than celebrate the high points of Chinese civilization, the emphasis falls entirely on suffering at the hands of foreigners. The sense of victimhood runs so deep that it is impossible for most Chinese to view themselves as aggressors. The idea that Tibetans, for example, might have some reason to see themselves as victims of the Chinese, is absurd. More than that, many Chinese genuinely believe that this type of Tibetan "propaganda" has been deliberately taken up by the Western press to inflict yet another humiliation on the Chinese people.
  • This does not mean, however, that democracy would be an automatic cure. In the unlikely event that China were suddenly to have a peaceful transformation to a liberal democracy, nationalism would not go away. No party seen to be soft on foreign powers, especially Japan and the U.S., would be. Modern Chinese history has been so bloody that the scars will take a long time to heal. Ethnic nationalism can be a kind of poison, especially when it is based on a feeling of victimhood. Political freedom should help to soothe such feelings in the long run, but this will not happen in time for the Beijing Olympics.

  • Aggressive nationalism usually goes together with authoritarian politics. When people have no legitimate means to show dissent, vent their frustrations, express critical opinions in public, and generally take part in politics, nationalism fills the void. As long as they can control it, this suits authoritarian rulers. In China, a certain unspoken sense of guilt may also play a role. The same people who demanded democracy in 1989, when they were students, are now often among the fiercest nationalists. The educated urban elite has prospered since the Tiananmen Massacre, and when people are reminded of the political compromises this involved, resentment can flare up easily.

free-expression internet

shared by arden dzx on 14 Jun 08 - Cached
  • The result was a challenge to the prevalent thinking that the Internet in China is all about entertainment, and that Chinese users will stay complacent under Internet control and management, since greater freedom of expression was allowed right after the quake. But now it remains to be seen whether these changes will have a lasting impact on Internet use in China. With the state returning to its tight pre-quake controls over the Internet, users may resist giving up their recent freedoms.

Should the Fed Buy Securities Outright? - Finance Blog - Felix Salmon - Market Movers -... - 0 views

shared by evawoo on 04 Apr 08 - Cached
  • Suppose that the value of the asset the Fed holds falls to zero after the trade. The trade was permanent, so there's no margin call or anything like that - the Fed owns the asset and it is worth nothing. Then, in the end, it is no different than the Fed simply printing that same amount of money and giving it to the banks as new reserves, it is an increase in the money supply.
  • If the central bank, or some other government agency, were to act as Market Maker of Last Resort and buy the impaired asset at a price no greater than its fair value but higher than what it would fetch in the free but unfair illiquid market, such a purchase would not be a bail-out. It would also be welfare-increasing...
  • My feeling is that it's not going to happen, mainly for political reasons. In this particular crisis, the distressed assets the Fed would end up buying would almost certainly be mortgage-backed bonds. But buying up mortgage-backed bonds looks very much like giving money to big banks and investors instead of giving it straight to struggling homeowners: the optics are simply terrible. If the collapse of Bear Stearns is seen as a bailout, this would be much worse. It might be a good idea, but its time

Brain Learning 大脑

shared by isaac Mao on 18 Nov 08 - Cached
  • 大脑就是一台三磅重的超级计算机。它是身体运行的命令和控制中心。它几乎涉及你所做的每一件事。你的大脑决定你如何思考，如何感觉，如何行动，以及如何与他人相处。你的大脑甚至决定你是哪一类的人。它决定了你有多善解人意；你有多友善或是有多粗鲁。它决定了你思维有多敏捷，这还涉及到你工作完成的如何以及你的家庭。你的大脑还影响你的情感活动，以及你如何对待异性。
  • 可以充当情绪兴奋剂的味道有薄荷，柏杨和柠檬。起到舒缓作用的味道有：依兰，天竺葵和玫瑰。滴几滴精油在浴缸中或者在扩散器中，都可以起到作用。你也可以在一个棉球或手帕中滴一两滴，然后吸入这种味道。对于办公地点使用的一个警告：先确保没有人对你使用的精油过敏。

TED Yeeyan

shared by isaac Mao on 12 Nov 08 - Cached
  • 认识 TED 这东西纯属 serendipity（意外的收获），记得好像是在 iTunes 上看到的（那时还在用一个叫 Windows 的操作系统，而 iTunes 则是当时最让我欣赏的软件之一）。一开始的时候只觉得好玩，载了好几个下来，待到暑假慢慢听。有一次听到 David Pogue 的演讲 ， 感觉顿时被征服了。David Pogue 早年曾在百老汇当过导演，后来又跑到《纽约时报》当起了科技版专栏作者。他在2004年的 TED 大会上做的那个演讲真可谓声情并茂：演讲以一段唱词（加即兴钢琴伴奏）开始，而后 David 以十分诙谐幽默的语言来演绎出缺乏人性化设计的产品如何为用户（最终是为企业）带来苦恼的故事。听过这个演讲后，我才真正体会到学好英语所带来的乐趣—— 就是能听得懂人家演讲里头的笑话、双关以及各种文字游戏！

  • 最近由皮尤研究中所做的调查发现有33%的人从互联网上获取大部分消息2008年总统竞选信息，而在2004年比例仅在10%。

  • 对于于幼军，不论是出于弥补没有上过大学的自卑，还是显示自己有过人的才华，其动机如何并不重要，对于一个政治人物来说，重要的是，要维护公正，自觉遵守公平的规则，至少要让大家看起来是这样的人。滥用自己的权势，不论牟取的是实利还是虚名，都是要不得的，会让人从心里瞧不起。于幼军是不懂这个道理，还是有掌权者的自负与傲慢？

  • 与以往在一夜情这个话题上的研究不同的是,这次研究并没有让参加调查的女性直接列出她们认为有吸引力的异性的特质. 加州大学戴维斯分校的心理系让204名女大学生首先观看了视频. 这些视频的内容是许多男人进行各种展现体力敏捷和头脑敏锐的活动. 此后, 这些女生根据对每一个男人进行长期和短期交往的渴望程度给他们打分.
