美国直到1980年才有了正式的教育部。在这之前,联邦政府中有一个叫“健康、教育和福利部”的部门,教育是它的一个分部。1979年10月17日,卡特总统签署法令,将“教育部”与“健康和人道服务”分开。次年5月4日,教育部正式开始运作。教育部是所有内阁级部中最小的。1995年,雇员约5000人,与农业部的10万雇员或国防部的80万雇员相比,简直不算什么。当时美国有7000万人从事教育工作,教育经费是500亿美元,教育部的款项支配只占其中的8%,美国的大部分教育经费来自地方税收。

The DigiActive Guide to Twitter for Activism | DigiActive.org - 0 views

We are very excited to announce the release of The DigiActive Guide to Twitter for Activism. Following the recent protests in Moldova, the value of Twitter as a tool for digital activism is more prominent than ever. Yet in addition to bringing greater awareness to that tool, the hype surrounding Moldova revealed misunderstanding of the value of of Twitter for activism and, even though the realists responded strongly, there was not a stand-alone resource which clearly defined how Twitter could be used by activists. We hope this guide will fill that void.

At some point on Friday, we hit a peak tweet density - 410 of 100,000 tweets included the #pman tag. Had I been scraping results by iterating 100,000 tweets at a time, I would have had four pages of new results - my script is only looking at the first page, so I’d be dropping results. If I ran the script again, I’d try to figure out the maximum tweet density by looking for the moment where the meme was most hyped, try to do a back of the envelope calculation as to an optimum step size and then halve it - that would probably have me using 20,000 steps for this set.

And if you retrieve 100 results per page, your results will stop at around 15 pages - the engine, by default, wants to give you only 1500 results on any search. This makes sense from a user perspective - it’s pretty rare that you actually want to read the last 1500 posts that mention the fail whale - but it’s a pain in the ass for researchers.

This makes sense from a user perspective - it's pretty rare that you actually want to read the last 1500 posts that mention the fail whale - but it's a pain in the ass for researchers. What you need to do is figure out the approximate tweet ID number that was current when the phenomenon you're studying was taking place. If you're a regular twitterer, go to your personal timeline, find a tweet you posted on April 7th, and click on the date to get the ID of the tweet. In the early morning (GMT) of the 7th, the ID for a new tweet was roughly 1468000000 - the URL http://search.twitter.com/search?max_id=1468000000&q=%23pman&rpp=100 retrieves the first four tweets to use the tag #pman, including our Ur-tweet: evisoft: neata, propun sa utilizam tag-ul #pman pentru mesajele din piata marii adunari nationale My Romanian's a little rusty, but Vitalie Eşanu appears to be suggesting we use the tag #pman - short for Piata Marii Adunari Nationale, the main square in Chisinau where the protests were slated to begin - in reference to posts about the protests. His post is timestamped 4:40am GMT, suggesting that there were at least some discussions about promoting the protests on Twitter before protesters took to the streets. Now the key is to grab URLs from Twitter, increasing the max_id variable in steps so that we're getting all results from the st

“嘿,就这么回事嘛,你们好多人,倡导司法独立,倡导司法要专业化,我们大清国岂能不知其中道理?要司法公正首先得司法独立,可是这司法一独立,你把我们老佛爷搁哪儿啦?司法独立了,司法也公正了,这样一来,哦,连老佛爷都管不了司法,我们大清国岂不歇菜!”颦儿居然还能说出“歇菜”这么现代的词,真难得。

问:北大教授孙东东认为老上访专业户“至少99%以上精神有问题”,这一事件如果发生在80年前会怎样?答:北大学生会要求校方开除他,校方也会断然将其开除。问:现在呢?答:现在的北大学生决不会做这种傻事。问:如果真这样做?答:学校可能会留下孙,把极个别“闹事”的学生开除。问:鄢烈山撰文指出,在三鹿毒奶粉事件发生后,孙东东说“奶粉保险、企业主动、政府处理没有疏漏”,批评孙东东见人说人话,见鬼说鬼话。你怎么看?答:鄢烈山说错了,人家明明是见人见鬼都说鬼话的。

他没法找到。如果不是凌沧洲指点,谁也不会相信,在林间空地上的那两层水泥台座就是宋教仁纪念塔的遗迹。它太普通、太不起眼、太渺小,无限寂寞地孤处于熙熙攘攘的动物园最偏僻的角落,就象宋教仁这个失败者的名字,淹没在那些金光闪闪的文治武功中。没有什么比那两层朴素的水泥基座更能象征我们的宪政理想了,就象唐律师所说的,我们又回到了历史的起点,以这两层塔座为根基——思想的根基、传统的根基,重新接过宪政理想的接力棒。

也许是由于提问所带有审视意味,也许是由于不远处那些监视的眼睛引起的不快,凌沧洲以不太友好的口吻反问:“我们为什么不能纪念宋教仁?”气氛一时有些紧张。

魏英杰 : "熊猫人"滥用民族概念玩出了火 - 0 views
-
去年《功夫熊猫》在国内上映,抵制得最欢的就是赵半狄先生。这位始终而且唯一以熊猫为全部艺术线索的艺术家,那时当仁不让地站了出来,指责电影居心叵测(把熊猫颜色设计成绿色,还让鸭子当熊猫的爹),跑到“劫后余生”的中国捞钱,等等。同样是这位常年顶着一个卡通熊猫帽子的艺术家,近日在法国巴黎举行一场“ 熊猫时装秀”,以熊猫造型为基本元素,表演了一组包括三陪小姐、民工、法官、贪官在内的“中国众生相”,却被网友大肆辱骂为卖国求名、侮辱国宝、自我炒作。
-
实际上,无论赵抵制《功夫熊猫》或者这次人家讨伐他,背后存在着同样一个事实,即民族主义情绪的滥用。这既为赵赢得无数人欢呼,却也是他被人扔臭鸡蛋的理由。或者说,赵半狄始乱之终被弃之,皆因玩火自焚。如果这都是他为吸引眼球而有意利用“民族概念”,现在还不赶紧悬崖勒马的话,以后下场还会更惨。教训不可谓不深刻啊。

但是,他的政治观念在一系列知识分子思想改造运动中,彻底转变了。觉得自己真的错了,组织是对的。所以,一旦让他为组织做事,自会感到无比荣耀。即使告密也光荣,因为那是“保卫党的工作”[p258]。这样,“耻”就转化为“荣”了。
-
当告密成为一种政治荣耀和义务之后,告密者的心里,就不会有负罪感和歉疚感了。面对头号大右派章伯钧,冯亦代生发出的是蔑视与鄙弃(尽管消受了你的好烟好酒和饥荒年月的好茶饭)。优越感的来由极其简单:我受组织的信任,你受我的监视。你是右派,我已不是。这也就是彭奇等人反复叮嘱的——思想上要跳出右派圈子。我认为冯很有可能还会因为出色的告密,而产生成就感和归属感,要知道他是在为政治权威尽义务。日记里对同类的鄙视,俯拾即是:
-
我想,冯亦代在日记里,对父母用辞轻蔑也许还有一个因素。这是他不愿意说出来的。那就是章伯钧对他的译作评价不高,有过多次批评。

Brain Power - Brain Researchers Open Door to Editing Memory - Series - NYTimes.com - 0 views
-
Suppose scientists could erase certain memories by tinkering with a single substance in the brain. Could make you forget a chronic fear, a traumatic loss, even a bad habit.
-
Researchers in Brooklyn have recently accomplished comparable feats, with a single dose of an experimental drug delivered to areas of the brain critical for holding specific types of memory, like emotional associations, spatial knowledge or motor skills.
-
The drug blocks the activity of a substance that the brain apparently needs to retain much of its learned information.
Chinese Social Networks 'Virtually' Out-Earn Facebook And MySpace: A Market Analysis - 0 views
-
What can Facebook and Western social networks learn, if anything? If monetizing a social network is so easy, then why hasn’t Facebook opened up its payment API to third party developers? While the aggressive and intrusive hyper-viral aspects of the apps in China may not be replicable in a Western Market, the problems for creating a more viable business model run deeper. Western companies cannot innovate in the same way due to institutional problems stemming from their own struggle for an identity and revenue. Facebook has just recently announced a “credits” system, but it seems to miss the mark. The new system demonstrates little incentive for users to shell over money, and does not speak to the same need as paying for a social application that all your friends are already on and talking about. Facebook may be afraid to become a marketplace for applications, because they are reluctant to be labeled as a social gaming network or a social app store. Instead, they are a self-styled guru of dynamic human interaction. If they opened up their platform to become an apps store, their major revenue streams would put them into a pigeonhole, calling their $15 billion valuation into question. They obviously don’t want to be labeled as a “gaming platform” either, and don’t want to fully depend on selling digital trinkets. Like during the American gold rush in 1849, where Chinese merchants prospered while most prospectors went bust in search of striking gold, it appears that building viable, scalable businesses for Social Networking sites may still be an ancient Chinese secret for Westerners.
