A pair of scissors, a red paper, not in kind, not one hour, a vivid peacock patternPaper-cutSuccessfully produced. For Shao Mei Han, the peacock cut such a figure has never been easier.

Dehong Dai-Jingpo Autonomous Prefecture in Yunnan Province Mans get what the village, there is a notorious “golden scissors.” She named Shao Mei Han, an ordinary farmer Dai. Dai and other women in the same village as her singing and dancing, farm work, housework, but because of love, but her own paper-cut of Dai was “unexpected,” the harvest, not only by the praise with the family, was also named Yunnan non-materialCultural HeritageSuccessors, the size of work went overseas marketing.

Now, the same village, several women also followed Shao Mei Han learning paper cutting. Of course, the door fast growing daughter is her focus on the object. Shao Mei Han is expected of her, “have to learn, only to learn paper-cut description of ingenuity, and understand housekeeping.”

London Olympics to see the design environment recycling play a key role

Swimming pool design plans

London 2012 Olympic Games next year, kicked off on July 27 At present, the main venue of the “London Bowl” has began to take shape, at first glance, with the Beijing Olympics “Bird’s Nest” is somewhat similar; and by the famous female architect Zaha Hadid-designed swimming pool have been completed, shape is like a “wave with wings.” “Our goal is to do a minimalist environment of the Olympic Games.” Chief architect of the London Olympics Jerome Frost, said: “After the Olympic Games in London, were removed recycled seats, than the first three even more Summer Olympics combined. ”

ArcelorMittal peculiar orbit tower

Queen Elizabeth in the east London Olympic Park, the first to attract people, not the 2012 Olympic Games main stadium “bowl of London”, but a shape distorted exaggeration, glowing bright red steel building. Reporters from around the world have speculated that some people say the building and lit the torch on, the distorted shape of the metaphor was that the Olympic rings, more people think that this is the signal transmission center.

Jerome Frost, the chief architect of the London Olympics, said: This is with the “London bowl” next to the building, but snatched the limelight a lot, the track called Arcelor Mittal Tower, by the British big-name artists An Nishi Kapoor design. Compared with the Eiffel Tower in Paris, it is only one-third of the former high, is simply “dwarf”, but the design company has said: “The problem lies not in height, but challenging structure.”

“Whether you like it or hate it, you will calmly looked at it carefully from head to toe.”

“London Bowl” – “beating heart”

“London bowl” known as the London Olympics “beating heart”, the roof is currently finishing work to do. Olympic Park, Queen Elizabeth, told reporters there is a building open to the top, you can list “London Bowl” picture. London, all in white bowl appearance, shape and narrow on the wide, resembles a soup bowl. “London Bowl” a total of five ring structures, according to Frost introduced the London-style bowl sink bowl design that allows viewers to watch more closely the action of athletes. The same as on the wide and narrow design, resulting in a bowl by the rope supporting the roof of London only 28 meters radius, can only cover two-thirds of the stadium audience. Taking into account the time the Olympic Games in London two weeks of relatively dry, tournament chairman decided to abandon the use of the whole adventure top housing. By 6 months of research, they finally determined, the use of two-thirds of the roof does not have a strong side winds affect the game result, the final set of the program.

Wings of the swimming pool

Leave the “London Bowl” far away, is the swimming pool has been completed by Britain’s leading female architect Zaha Hadid design. Its shape is a large curvy body waves, both sides of the connection “waves” is two white rectangular building, which looks like an open book, open, like the waves of the “wings.” Compared to the “London Bowl”, reporters from around the world is more willing to “waves” stay close to enjoy more time.

In the “London Bowl” and “waves” of the north, there is a complex, handball court, basketball court and bike games have been completed. Founder of the rules of handball court, basketball court, one black and one white, side by side. More eye-catching is all made of wood Velodrome, even the inside of the bike paths are made of wood.

Special Olympics will be a large demolition and dismantling

After the Olympics, where all the buildings will be such as “Transformers” as a massive collective incarnations: “waves” of white wings will be demolished, leaving only 17,000 seats 2500, become Public open pool; “London Bowl” is removed on the ground about 55 000 seats, leaving only the bottom track and field and 25,000 seats after the Olympics, “sold” to a Premier League club as the main stadium .

Other Olympic venues also adhering to this principle. London 2012 Olympic Park, a total of nine venues construction, into a permanent construction and temporary construction. In the construction of permanent buildings, and is divided into temporary facilities and permanent facilities, which add a lot of difficulty for the construction.

Has a 12,000-seat Olympic Velodrome in London 2012 – Olympic Racing Museum tilt (Velodrome), of which 60 seats for the temporary seat. After the Olympics, where the track will be properly converted to the same road and mountain bike cycling road with others, into a socially oriented “cycling park.”

The appearance of pure white for the Olympic basketball preliminaries and quarter-finals provided 12,000 seats after the Games will be completely removed and reconstruction may be in his office. Frost told reporters in London, many companies offer sports venues and facilities leasing work, the Basketball Hall may appear in the other countries of the Games.

If the Olympic venues is almost gone, do you think the Olympic legacy, something was lacking? “London Bowl” chief designer of the Vickery on this issue has its own answer: “The real Olympic legacy to stay in people’s memory. For example, the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, in the past for so long, also remember that swimming pool look like? no one remember, but many people a deep impression is that the U.S. “Time” magazine published a diving queen Fu Mingxia volley leaps of cover, and her period of diving legend. ”

After the Olympics, “London Bowl” will reduce the 2 / 3

London Olympic Games main stadium “bowl of London,” announced the beginning of the design, is alleged to imitate the “Bird’s Nest.” With the nest, as it can accommodate 80,000 spectators. The difference is that nest only 11,000 temporary seats, but the bowl was in London with 55,000 temporary seats. “Bird’s Nest” was originally estimated 3.5 billion yuan building, in fact, spent nearly 70 million;

The “London Bowl” take the latest data is 496 million pounds.

Responsible for the “London bowl” design Populous is the world’s largest sports construction company.

Correspondent for “London Bowl” main person in charge of the design project Vickery more “Bird’s Nest” and “London Bowl” the similarities and differences, he said: “China and Britain is very different design philosophy.” “After the Olympics, ‘London bowl ‘will reduce the 2 / 3, we do a little frustrating, but very excited, we have designed many landmark buildings, such as Wembley Stadium, O2 stadium, while the’ London Bowl ‘will be our first design temporary stadium. ”

Beijing Olympics “Bird’s Nest”, was “The Times” as the world in building the “most powerful” project.

Vickery said: “London Bowl” is not the kind of shape to win the stadium spectacular, but this is a smarter construction.

“London Bowl” with handling the most complex projects, like a bowl full of air. In order to ensure efficient use after the game, the designer used in the process of building a distinctive “heritage” design philosophy: 25000 seat design in the bowl, the external set has a removable lightweight metal framework as an additional The 55,000 seat grandstand. Construction of the museum is not too much of private boxes, which will decrease the overall height of the stadium, which also allows the audience sitting on the top have a better view.

Externally, they intend to use special materials to the entire Stadium “wrap up”, this porous, translucent printed fabric, you can make the entire stadium are “natural breathing.” August this year, “London Bowl” to find new global partners – Chemical giant Dow Chemical, they will decorate the new stadium shell pay.

London Olympic swimming pool design, with the “London Bowl” exactly the same, a large atmospheric waves exaggerated roof, soft and strength combined with Zaha Hadid obvious personal style. Zaha Hadid Architects designer Jimu He Wenrui (JimHeverin) is “swimming pool” project led by people, according to him, had Zaha designed a “wave”, but considering the seat is not enough, and later to the “waves” the placement of a pair of “wings” can seat from the original 2,500 to 17,500 seats. The swimming pool using blue and white, to attract the eye; the pool on both sides of the seat, the use of natural light to form the shadow, so that the audience sitting in the stands do not see the other side, to focus on swimming pools.

Best learn to engage in military training charity

Mei show off their wealth this year by the United States triggered a crisis of confidence in China charity, up to now have not subsided. People with good deeds tradition, think of all the shady interior charity, it is unjust. If we take the property donated to charitable organizations like to do, not as their own personal money into the hands of people to need help. But this people has increased the cost of doing good deeds, such as Chen cursor entrepreneurs are in the minority, they certainly have the time and money to high-profile charity, also has the ability to bypass intermediaries who do good, but as there is kindness and ability to limited people, only to give it a little good fortune.

“Charity Charity” is to hold a compassionate heart to do good for the general public, rather than the name under the guise of charity to collect money for some organizations and individuals. In this charity, we should be in line to the meaning of Wu Xun beggar, do not plan to fame and fortune, self-discipline, the money should be spent on each charity, while their own money but is the custodian of the donor nothing. As long as earmarking, the money spread in the sun under the supervision of the public to accept, I believe that the reputation of charities will slowly improve.

Wu Xun was born in the bottom of society, not even the name was a young man giving the workers, burned by eating no culture, people often withheld wages and humiliation, so made under the ambition to set up free schools by begging, so poor children through literacy to change the destiny, or at least be sensible.

Guangxu fourteen years, the Shandong governor Zhang Yao in the memorial to the emperor wrote: “According to the reported cell magistrate GUO, Wu Zongyu son of Wu Xun, no parents since childhood, living in poverty. Wu Xun annual savings, and then by This live, money 4260 serial 874 Wen Jing, Wu Xun are donated to the funds as a founder of free schools. have donated their fellow Guo Fen Liu Lin Jidong Qili eighth acre of land outside, as the tile to set up free schools , plus quantity fee, Wu Xun and Beijing alone has donated money 2800 serial, neighboring Beijing, the public donated money to 1578 series. was built spring commencement this year, a student three dozen people. There are also two dozen foreign Health lesson for this magnanimous act, I think military training themselves to live frugally and give everything to do free schools, those in power, possessions of the rich abundance of Shu can not be done, this song is really respectable. chen contributions of Wu Xun a bit rough estimate of funding, about seven thousand strings together more than two thousand two hundred silver, audited in line with the construction of Frank’s case, hope the emperor graciously grant tangyi County citizens to build their own weapons and training workshops, thanks to his “generosity” to show the awards. “emperor to give approval, and allow for the Board of Rites.

Silver two thousand two hundred, for the rich people nothing, but it is the military training savings for three decades, begging and arduous journey to work earned the hard-earned money. In order to raise school funds, Wu Xun dressed as clowns, about two and a half shifts shave their heads, to coax people happy in order to charity. Every temple and the market, he went to perform acrobatic “Nada Ding”, lying on the floor turns to the children when Maji, even on the spot swallowed snakes and scorpions and other toxic Bo sympathy. In the begging, he also earn money by, for example, grind, head twisting, drying manure, Zhacao so, what money do.

Little prospect of military training to raise funds, the brother owed a gambling debt to seek funding, he does not give a single cent, refused to free school funds misappropriation. Free school success, military training is still begging, overnight temples. When students ask him to school all kneel to live, he said: “good-hearted people I applied the money to set up free schools, so that poor children can read and write and I enjoy it if their own, would not lie to the donor’s kind? this unconscionable things I can not do. Moreover, I am well, there is no distress. you read it carefully, do not always thinking about me. “In order to learn the cause of life’s meaning, Wu Xun lifelong bachelor, until the death of 59-year-old only to the displaced, begging school owed a stop.

Students why the memory of revolutionary martyrs when Tang Dynasty poet

“Absurd, Tang poet Zhang and actually become a revolutionary martyr!” Such absurd things, but it happens truly happened. In recent days, in a community to upload a post, fueled crowd. Post said in Yellowstone Institute of Technology found on a news website, the students in the memorials to the Tang poet Zhang and mourning “martyrs”, also confidently made in college to write a press official website. (Chengdu Evening News, August 13)

For such a ridiculous act, users are mostly laughed at their ignorance. But in my opinion, if students have not been to Zhang and Memorial, imagined it as a revolutionary martyr, there is no basic cultural knowledge, the problem is that these students are to Zhang and Memorial, are they not entered the Memorial Hall to understand the Zhang and his life? Zhang and their understanding of the life after, how to also as a revolutionary martyr?

More likely scenario is that they went to Zhang and monuments, and know that Zhang and Tang Dynasty poet, however, but to make this “theme” activities in line with “theme”, so, on an ulterior motive, given the visits to “cherish the memory of revolutionary martyrs’ significance. Propaganda Department of the school’s response to the red rectangle, you can see one of the mystery – “May this year, the school plans to General Electric college students cherish the memory of martyrs of the activities held in the county, but because of security considerations to be denied college, a bunch of students do not know how to go to the ancestral hall, there is still something to hold the event banner. “side red to be attributed to” may be foreign to many students do not understand the cultural history of Yellowstone. “But visit a memorial, not to understanding of local cultural history?

Of course, there is a situation, these students simply do not enter Memorial Hall, just before the memorial raised the banner to take photographs, it announced the completion of the “memory of events” was.

Either way, I prefer to put this event as a fictional theme activities, these students receive some praise for the performances carried out, took the theme of activities can indicate their “advanced nature” , in essence, is a social practice students for a fraud. Similar to the occurrence of fraud in the social practice, not uncommon in recent years, some students did not participate in social surveys, but a bigger way, the investigation report prepared; some students were not a one-day social practice, issued by the unit cover is required the official seal of proof; Some students do volunteer service, but also put “POSE” shoot photos, even with volunteer experience … … just that this show, the students do not know, the election of the “props “It is easy to see the vulnerability by others.

Recall that in recent years in various colleges and universities get virtual fraud, formalism scandals, such as a school to meet the assessment, the student’s papers, a redo operation, a school child in the wasteland on the Samai filled lawn, as well as school PS a student award certificates, etc., by contrast, the students of “false memory of” the school won the true mass.

If you do not reverse the utilitarian value of education-oriented, more absurd things will happen in the university and college students, then there is knowledge, there is no match for “enlightenment.”

Looking Xinhai century, “the Kuomintang remnant”

Turn back the clock back to the year 1950 New Year’s Day, the morning sun has just exposed the horizon, a military aircraft, Britain bumps toss off from Xichang, Sichuan Province, like a bee flying over a mirror-like smooth Qionghai lake, over the size of the Liangshan mountains, has been working toward flew to the south of Yunnan. Airplane motor in the quiet sky rang, looked out the porthole of water vapor from the covered ground nebulous, as if suspended in the transparent air of the air, only the east side of that round of the golden sun rose higher, the burning glow of smear on the aircraft wing.

Aircraft carrying a history of the Golden Triangle and the future have an important relationship between personalities, he is a famous Kuomintang commander and will be “President of Yunnan Province,” Li Mi.

If we put half of the 20th century, the beginning of the day Yegang Gang called the Chiang dynasty “Black New Year”, then Li Mi even get to stay in the mainland on the last unlucky Kuomintang general. He had just returned from a meeting to return Taiwan, Chiang Kai-shek personally ordered him to hang in Yunnan, to keep the last one for the counterattack against the mainland bridgehead. Li Mi stepped in yesterday, he flew from the Xichang Yunnan Mengzi, Hu Tsung-nan at Southwest Military and Political Executive held an emergency meeting. Unexpectedly, middle of the night received a telegram, said troops found the main direction of Mengzi, which surprised no trivial matter, he placed eighth corps six million people in southern Yunnan, this is his last capital, so he boarded the plane early in the morning rush back to Mengzi.

God has been revealing the fate of the ferocious, or general history, destined to give a blow to the dead end. Mengzi when the aircraft flew over the ground, the fog dissipated, he was shocking to see an irreversible failure of fate has come: the county seat battle, guns roar, the military is a total charge of his forces were defeated and dispersed, the airport and burst into flames, two against the failure of the aircraft burning on the runway. Military-aircraft guns were directed at the sky, a string of bullets shattered the Li Mi any attempt to return to the ground. Aircraft circling in the sky in despair, and then had nowhere to land carrying the commander to fly back to Taiwan from the sunken shipwreck scene similar to last forever remain in the Li Mi’s nightmare.

My understanding of Li Mi began in the 1980s, when I go alone to the interview in western Yunnan, Yunnan, Theme for the collection of war writing material. I went to the Nu River valley of Matsuyama battlefield, military life Li Mi is brilliant and the most famous place in one fell swoop, so he loaded the Chinese nation’s war history. And then to Tengchong, this is Li Mi home, to save many of the KMT is still the local hero of the war the family material. Finally, I drove to the birthplace of Li Mi Yingjiang small plains town. Small plains east coast is a Dayingjiang age-old town, said several hundred years, local cultural centers a Mr. Lee took me to an old house door, saying that this is the former residence of Li Mi. Family Compound in the local people considered second to none and honest, a few acres of paddy fields, to do a small business. This interview made me reverse the hard struggle of life for Li Mi have a general grasp of the process. I think Li Mi’s life course can be roughly divided into two stages, a watershed in Matsuyama battlefield. I long documentary literature “power of the soul” in the battle of Songshan Li Mi made the following description and evaluation:

“Li Mi, No. Wenqing, also known as Ping-jen, a native of Tengchong, Yunnan, peasant family background. The officer gifted, studious, 1924 Toubicongrong in Yunnan where do orderlies. Two decades of military career, after the size of one hundred than war, and finally the military official, Vice Chairman of honor at least the first division of course, the deputy commander Major General Li Mi is by no means the highest ideal, if the Chinese Shao-Zhou were (Eighth Army commander, Yingqin nephew) is to rely on royal nepotism easy to obtain high back door, then the origin of Li Mi civilians who would only rely on their own efforts: credit, sweat, loyalty, cunning, and the wind blows, bite the bullet, sold themselves, take risks, etc. to achieve … …

“Chiang Kai-shek died under one command, limit Eighth Army in the ‘nine hundred and eighteen’ humiliation has to be won Matsuyama, otherwise Junfacongshi. Li Mi acute red eye, caught a helmet on his head, personally led the secret camp on the Songshan peak positions … … the day I saw him on September 7 from the main peak was helped down on, orbital congestion, bearded, it turned into uniform pieces, playing one pair of bare feet, who wounded two people have gone out of shape.

“… Then hit noon, gunfire was getting sparse, probably four or five o’clock pm, the mountains came the news that victory, and when I see clearly, Li Mi sitting on a stone outside the headquarters, Staff ran forward to report to him, he did not move, still stiff to poke in stone, and then suddenly the tears roll out … ”

If the “powers of the soul” of the war record of a vibrant military Li Mi, then 10 years later I re-understanding of Li Mi is a bad luck had to decline the general. With a Li Mi, Matsuyama bloody battle, personally led the assault, and the size of dozens of Japanese war, which is quite gallant, tiger angry. But in one fell swoop fame, and the bureaucratic pride, among the high commander of the Kuomintang Army, pampered, hot, become the most highly valued love to Chiang Kai-shek, after all this all changed. I noticed that as a fact that after Li Mi from Matsuyama war and victory for him, he again played a bigger way, the victory did not, of course, he no longer led the assault charge, will only support a well-equipped KMT Corps buried on the battlefield. No wonder the old man on his extremely disappointed, so he went to Taiwan bench.

In fact, Li Mi have wronged. As individuals, the historical trend, as have the number in front of it? Does he want to win the war? Is it really changed him become stupid stupid, not to fight it? Such as Germany, “World War II” star Rommel, the battlefield in North Africa he hit a lot of fantastic victory, so that American troops will lose heart, and finally failed because he will not fight? Do not work hard? For a person? Obviously the answer is no. Japan can not stop the Allied military victory, even kamikaze-Team does not help, this is not a description of an irresistible historical process has its own laws? 1960 Li Mi Taipei Dapinglin seclusion, he visits old friends lament: to rain, mother to get married, the general trend ah. I understand that this is a complete failure of the Kuomintang general experience of the inner complexity of smoldering voice. Taiwan tiny, countless dignitaries, he was a Yunnan, civilian origin, one no royal backing, the second is not, Zhejiang University, troops in Yunnan was lost, he rely on capital sustains it?

From Yunnan’s Li Mi fled to Taiwan to sit for six months in back seat, his wife was thrown on the mainland, their wives and children, almost a dead end ignored, then the newspaper’s news Previous humble saved him. This news report from the West, said a victory over the Kuomintang troops in the Golden Triangle of Myanmar government forces have superior force, causing Yangon vibration, and so on. A time when drastic changes in the situation in Asia, the Korean War, the U.S. sent troops to the Korean peninsula, followed by the Beijing government announced that the Korean War, made the world stunned. The White House said U.S. President read this message very seriously, called to ask Taiwan, Chiang Kai-shek, but know nothing about this, and made it lose face. Americans’ World War II, “the lessons of history to see Myanmar’s Asian strategy in an important position, and Chiang Kai-shek is seen rising from a piece of hope for the dawn of the triangle area. Insert a knife in the back of the Communist Party, this is not the best chance of recovering the mainland of it? It is said that Chiang Kai-shek summoned immediately rushed Li Mi, old man flies into a rage, cursed Li Mi “Mother Greece horses,” asked why the fight such a force would throw in Burma.

Survive swearword of Li Mi finally got his wish. Chiang Kai-shek personally appointed him two titles, one is “anti-Communist National Salvation Army commander of Yunnan People” and the other is the “Chairman of the Government of Yunnan Province and Yunnan appeasement Office director,” is set in a party political and military power. His task was to immediately go to the Golden Triangle to bring together his team to establish the forefront of recovering the mainland.

The fall of 1950, one wearing a black hat, middle-aged man wearing a suit from Taiwan’s Kaohsiung Harbor aboard a ferry bound for Hong Kong, his pomp, no different from other ordinary passengers. His first stop is Hong Kong and then fly to Bangkok, after a long route to reach the ground, the Thai-Burma border, the final destination is Mengsa. He is Lieutenant General Li Mi Kuomintang. At this time Li Mi task in the body, he is finally bid farewell to Taiwan’s official and bureaucratic back seat, go to a distant theater re-appointed.

This charge off against the ancient seal of the commander called Fengjiangdali.

Tsunami: The Poetry of Light Yu-Zhen compass

Chinese pedigree for thousands of years in poetry, there are many there enough to Homer, Hebrews, “Song of Solomon” and stands as the great poem Everest. The “Sun” as a cultural totem, and poetic images, the book has been continuously chanting poets sing. Qu Yuan’s “Heaven” in the self, “won the Cloud Nine” to “Yao Ling hidden among” the ultimate questioning over two thousand years has left us a great cultural and spiritual Haotian magnetic field. People’s Literature Publishing House has recently launched a grand “East of the Sun” collection of poems, the poet Tan Zhongchi conducted a very challenging and full of hard climbing pleasure of poetry: travel thousands of miles, countless days and nights of the desk breaking volume, the Executive hand brush, finally completed the film “baby-like holy moonlight deep, rock-solid firm, the magnificence of the universe and flowers as soft” for the magnificent of. At this point, much indifferent to the coast in the Xiangjiang River library, the lamp is definitely still on … … bright and happy eyes, blurred and clear the back, engraved never tired the next, perseverance walk through the soul. The poem can not be converted to question the emotional and cultural identity, and poetic language carefully constructed to form a “bright stone” shine like the poetic landscape. A poet of unique sharp, delicate and play, writing a “history” the river of group portrait: a long hard road, magnificent trek strong sad, painful bite the bullet, magnificent scenes, all most vividly in this work Looking back and relaxing.

The development of lyric poetry, from Qu Yuan to represent the “independent” the poet began to restrain the current free release, has been formed sense of exile poetry and lively scene highlights the spirit of the times. Lu proposed “Lyric Poetry Profusion, Fu bright objects and visit.” Qu Yuan “Chu Ci” is the “recitation that Min Xi Xi, determined effort to lyric,” the play to the idea of ​​poetry as an unprecedented height. As a political lyric poem, “East of the Sun” is a traditional “Poems” a bold breakthrough. Its success is simple sincere emotion, poetry, strange and beautiful language, elegant, and the cultural fabric of a nation and the development process of a political party had a “epic” as the grand construction. “Poem Moupian careful and precise and shows well, dense imagery, words brighter.” In the “years of those in the petals,” a text, poetry critic Xie Mian very fair assessment. Chilean poet Pablo Neruda once made: the poet’s responsibility not only to me that with the Roses, harmony, love and boundless enthusiasm of the close relationship between his homeland, but also to me that daunting task with the close relationship between human beings. Poet and effective Internet era, inspired feelings of home and country, in the poem “East of the Sun”, we seem to be some kind of new revelation.

Tan Chung Chi is a prolific writer, before the invention of this made, had published a novel, prose and poetry, etc. more than twenty, including the “banana Rain”, “Moon Dream”, “years and the Dream”, “I want to have wings “,” Water and Heaven “,” Tan Zhongchi poetry selection, “” Salute to the name of life “and other seven volumes of poetry. In fact, the poetry his heart has always been cherished in the hearts of most value lighthouse and emotional compass. Whether or cultural as a political poem poem, “East of the Sun” is undoubtedly a “positive patriotism” in the classic template. Six thousand lines of deep thinking, making this “great poem” The soul is full of emotion burning heat. In this work, a reflection of the spiritual nature of a nation, through the history, mission, feelings, self-examination and a series of grand and profound description of the theme, as well as social, political, cultural and other significant people or events in contemplation reproduction, the formation of his scattering, jade disc with scattered beads in series extravagant as effective, but rigorous style throughout the text. “East of the Sun” does not contain, including the prologue and epilogue, is divided into seven chapters, each chapter and even each section, the fine can be as an independent short poems to read, a poem for this style, especially the political stand clear of the poetic works are extremely rare. Thanks to his long-standing of concentrated reading and writing, and of great cultural background on our consideration of the soul. As the poet said: the poet’s love is the heart and life, and even love of the eternal soul. Thus, Tan Zhongchi to all of his effort and talent, in a state of extreme love and passion, the Chinese Communist Party ninety anniversary, ocean sway, indulge stirring, sing a long in the hearts of precipitation song.

In the Gobi Desert

Flowers in bloom on the mountains in the waves

Rolled in the eagle flying high winds

Yunfei carved image of band Diming

Enterohepatic broken dreams

On political subjects like poetry, it is easy to fall into a “before reading” errors. Primarily the unity of such works, unity, stability, resulting in lack of weather more than the poetic shortcomings. Tan Zhongchi first consideration is the poetry, the first section of poems in the sequence, of the poetry would look bleak picture gone with, like a magnificent strange and beautiful landscape, quickly closing the distance with readers. In the whole work, whether poetic deconstruction of the geographical sense, or in the “Book of Songs,” “Songs of the South” and other classics in the previous absorb nutrients, the poet any unbridled spread, in the words in the back, walk through, as readers in the labyrinth of the shuttle’s nine heterogeneous ileum. However, this seems to come in handy in the complex imagery and poetic, in fact, consider the construction of the poet’s words painstakingly product ladder. Throughout the cultural depth of field so long, and events, the characters of the poem sketches, of Bishijiuxu, the edges of light color, and sometimes just a few lines into the wood will be one-third. “Imagery is the language of miracles, such as the vector to the earth like a full example of obedience” (Pasternak language). “A plot of the warm sun, pool / a real life of Chinese youth bloom / a magnificent century to embrace symphonic / step climbing the beautiful scenery of the new … …” Tam Chung-Chi is a full obedience to follow the sun and the earth god Kai call the pursuit of self inner nature of Health issued the “absolute rationality” and “high thinking”, for their staunch belief in the birthday party presented a spiritual gift.

To complete such a work, not rich cultural (literature) and knowledge accumulation of repair is almost impossible. Then there are filled with the light throughout, Fan Hao, Zhuang language of the United States, and author of “History” profound insight, it is easy to put us into a dizzying situation. “Who is flying in the sky / sun who lifts her in wondering what was going / have Heaven For what human For what authentic Yan / like a sound of thunder pierced the dawn fog / Emmanuel explosion ushered in the wake Hongxia destroy the sky … …” This the first chapter of “Oriental Dream” in the poem, Tam Chung in the pool in the moonlight “Kik” in the rising time “Plucking.” Thus, the poet emotional Canglang, showing the “May I brought back from the Yellow River source of water innocence Oh / night-break cup will become inexhaustible sake,” the yearning. And as Vice Chairman of the Hunan Provincial Federation of Literary and President, has done before the magistrate, deputy secretary general of the provincial government and the Mayor of Changsha City, many years of experience made him realize for the livelihood of the people have a deeper perception and thinking. Wenchuan earthquake, Tan Chung Chi has created and published by a “salute to life in the name of” collection of poems, in “East of the Sun” in our nation after the disaster and suffering, of life praise and the people unite as one to brave hardy have a touching interpretation.

Tam Chung in the pool of poetry, history and present an objective look, stick to the traditional culture and adhere to, have a very precise and appropriate grasp. His poems are more or less infected with the incurable poetry “over the top” as Clivia bloom quietly growing on the windowsill. Elegant, quiet, quiet. This is how much the poetry we are familiar with the “Difference Chen” writing style runs counter, however, can not ignore that, it is the language of poetry to such conduct, and the relentless pursuit of goodness and beauty, so that Tan Zhong pool noisy Voices The so-called poetry maintains its own independent position. As a “major poets” status, he will undoubtedly face more than misreading and distortion of poetry, his work also face greater challenges. However, we must admit, Tan Zhongchi always at his desk, in his poetry world, care of the spiritual life of their own wetlands.

Everything is so original dignified solemn

Everything is so fresh and fleeting dream

Everything is so purely natural magnanimous

Everything is so hazy ethereal flying

“I want to sing heart of the sun, east of the Virgin. Because she had not only the material bright and warm, but also spiritual beacon, the universe of the soul, God’s will and rotation keep the light of the compass … …” This is the Tan Zhongchi In the “East of the Sun” pour out the voice of the epilogue, but also we were able to feel, or the spiritual world of poetry into his key.

China Shakes: witness the rise of civilized Nation

Beijing Olympic Games and Shanghai World Expo, efficient and successful disaster relief response to the financial crisis, these significant achievements and landmark event, making China the first time become the focus of world attention. China’s rapid rise and development, has become irrefutable fact. As a result, “Chinese model”,” China Road “,” China experience “, and so became the topic of many people at home and abroad.

In many related works, Professor Zhang Weiwei’s new work “China Shakes- A “civilized nation” to rise “is a concern. Of its Institute of Diplomacy and International Relations in Geneva as a professor, and visited more than one hundred countries, the experience of China’s development in recent decades on the history of the world and the international environment, the background was observed, from the history and reality, achievements and shortcomings, characteristics and ideas, cultural traditions and institutional mechanisms and comparison with other countries in China such as multi-dimensional, in-depth interpretation of the Chinese model of success and why.

Read the book impressed me most is the basis of rational thinking. This recognition from China’s great achievements. The authors note that since 1979, China’s GDP grew 18 times, has become the world’s second largest economy, the second largest exporter. If purchasing power parity terms, China in 1992, is the world’s second largest economy. China has attracted more than 8,000 billion dollars in foreign investment and become an important engine of world economic growth. In 2009, China’s trade growth on the world economy and the contribution rate of 50%. China’s airports, ports, railways, roads and other infrastructure, the Chinese people’s living standard, China’s average life expectancy and other important indicators, but also has a surprising change.

This recognition comes from a “Culture-oriented country”Rise. The author believes that China’s rise is mainly due to insist on its own path of development, both long learning of others, also play their own advantages and achieve a kind of transcendence of the Western model. China as a” civilized Nation “There are eight characteristics that can be referred to as” four super “and” four special “.” Four super “that very large population size, the vast territory over land, over a long historical tradition. super rich cultural heritage; “Four special” that is unique language, the unique political, unique community, a unique economy. This makes China the world’s most abundant human resources and the world’s largest potential market in other countries can not match the geographic advantage, has a long the historical heritage and an independent system of thought, there is an inexhaustible cultural resources.

This recognition comes from the Chinese development model, which is China’s reform and opening experience. The author believes that China’s development model has eight features, this is the practical reason, strong government and stability first, people’s livelihood for large, progressive reform, sequence differences, mixed economy, opening up. Over the past thirty next year, China has largely worked out a path to their own modernization. In a population than the EU, the United States, Japan, Russia and even more countries, for such a tremendous industrial revolution, technological revolution, social revolution, the state remained stable, most people have been significantly improved living standards, also successfully avoided the Asian financial crisis of 1997 and 2008, the beginning of the financial calamity. This is the proof of the success of the Chinese model.

This recognition comes from the rise of a political discourse. The author believes that a country’s political discourse is very important, and political discourse is the core concept. China, this “civilized nation” during the rise of the concept is the continuous process of production. Eight of the idea came out of China: seeking truth from facts, people’s livelihood, the overall thinking, it is necessary to good government, good governance, good governance, hearts of the people who in the world and selecting and appointing capable, eclectic and innovation, harmony, and the middle and different. 1.3 billion Chinese people through thirty years of proven philosophy is able to stand, and for solving many difficult problems in today’s world is also helpful. Chinese philosophy has enriched the wisdom of the world, constitutes an important Chinese political component of soft power.

This recognition comes from China and India, Eastern Europe, East Asia compared. These countries and regions, a considerable extent, accepted the Western political systems and development models. Of a large amount of facts to illustrate their development status and problems to come to their own basic conclusion: Although there are still many problems in China, but China’s performance over the past thirty years, particularly in the eradication of poverty and modernization two aspects of performance, significantly better than other developing countries in the world, beating the transition economies.

Key Analysis of the strengths and achievements of the Chinese model, nor to avoid the various problems that exist today, such as rural-urban gap, corruption, environmental pollution, wealth gap, and so on. That China is facing many difficulties and challenges, to such a large population, vast territory of the country the full realization of modernization is not easy. However, these problems are not insurmountable.

Through a wide range of analysis, the authors believe that: as a strong and continuously for thousands of years of civilization, but also in the past hundred years the fierce international competition, learned from others a lot, but also had to digest these things, transformation, re-creation , China has gradually formed its own series of practices and standards, such discourse is the development model and will certainly affect the evolution of world order. Of prediction: the overall strength of China surpassed the United States to be, the whole world’s political, economic and ideological territory may as China, the “civilized nation” and the rise of a profound change. Western discourse dominates the situation will come to an end, all the old index system will be corrected, a variety of new index system will emerge, the Chinese model and the discourse will be recognized around the world.

Read the book, readers may not like the authors are so confident in the Chinese model, it would not totally agree on the Chinese model of the general characteristics and concepts, even for the core concept of the “civilized nation” may have their own a different view. However, I believe that most readers will agree on a broad international perspective, recognition of the fact that speaking with an honest attitude, recognition of the problem of rigor rational analysis, which will naturally further understand and agree with the Chinese model.

“like-minded,” Why did not promote the open?

Chapters in accordance with the framework of the beginning of Song “The Analects of Confucius”The first sentence of the first chapter, namely:

“Confucius: to learn with it, is it not? Have friends from afar? People do not know, without resentment, it not gentlemanly?”

Three sentences from the home of Confucius himself might, in fact, has a very final three sentences of stuff in there. A completely self-reflection, that is the end of sentence; a semi-introspective semi-Education (Confucius, Jesus Christ Biao is not it?) Others, that the first sentence; sentence is entirely in their own perception of the feelings of people of the world, which is said to myself, that the second sentence.

Let me talk about self-examination of the third sentence. Understood by later generations, the third sentence is to say, “even if people do not know me, but he does not hate because others do not understand their own and others, to do this, do not you become a gentleman saints” (cf. Yang Bojun translation)? This is of course the great Confucius. A person living in this world, we will let others to know. If not, then humanity as a social relationship with each other that you and I, you can not set up. This is the premise, but in this premise, Confucius, as a gentleman should not have to worry as the worry of others, nor to others, as has been hi hi. As an independent individual, who need to maintain a necessary reserved. This is not the pride and vanity, but of a proud man as man. Furthermore, no resentment of others, but also want to state in a similar resentment of others do not. Thus, in addition to himself as a gentleman, but also hope that others, like the gentleman with his. Thus, “self” will have a foothold. “Slim” also appear to have become “universal” significance.

Besides the first sentence. In accordance with an understanding of Confucius’s descendants, the first sentence says is, “learn to learn to go should be in accordance with the student, so that it was not a very happy to do for you?” This is the Confucius of their questioning, but also for their ultimate requirements. “Role models” have from their “learning” and “practice” in particular “learning” from top to bottomKung fu. The same is true of history. Confucius travel around the world they want to own learned “Zhou Li” to the nations to flourish. Confucius travel around the world regardless of how much pain to eat, and how much to eat cold shoulder, Confucius seems “silly” no more. Because Confucius believes that its own concept of self-examination will be moved to another sharp weapon. When this self-examination once the events accepted by others, then as a platform of “country” will have a rational framework, but also have a “rule” of the heart foundation.

The second sentence of the “friends from afar?” Is the most profound meaning of the word. This sentence not only established the highest level of logic in China, and opened a “flat world” theory. “Like-mindedPeople, from afar, is not something to be happy I do for you pleasure? “The question is, what is the like-minded and who are like-minded? Which they can rise to like-minded people? Like-minded non-existent differences exist, or that differences will become saboteurs and drive a wedge between like-minded persons? In what time or what kind of space, like-minded or like-minded may become Zhitong Dao? a series of question is not easy to answer, but asked in a series of Confucius This one is not either-or “yes” or “non” in the then and future generations of people get the recognition. This is as long as one finds like-minded, that is like-minded, it would be such as to like-minded people, ‘ll be glad to pleasure. As for that “world” is not only can be resolved only by like-minded. Obviously, there has been no success stories too. This significance is the opening phrase, “like-minded” is not only the people, it may be a need some defined judgments. The heart and a defined, clear communication is the want of society, including the necessary organizational communication time to receive. rather than personal self-reflection can be obtained. Confucius for an active entry into the WTO, for a company of students (Zeng) are understood to be a daily “three times daily,” Confucius, the availability of like-minded friends as a happy or not, pleasant or not, happy or not the standard. appeared out of the Chinese culture in two thousand Unlike years ago, Western culture had its own unique theory and most of the people’s attitude to the world. “flat world” is about can not rely on violence, but should rely on one can be happy among people with like-minded. This Confucius’s ideal. is also possible that due to the times of Confucius, the situation extremely rare and Ping Kong coined hoping. But anyway, we see that the “narcissistic,” “self-satisfaction “China’s Anpinyuedao become China’s most ethical significance of social identity and cultural genes.

But, we are very sorry to see that this hoping like-minded “music” of the culture, no one in the next two thousand years the flower, but no results. Us more to see is: human well-being, house curtain turn of events,TrickeryThe party struggles, the change of dynasty, all full of hate, conspiracy, intrigue, violence and bloodshed. Confucius wishful thinking for the hearts and minds designed to society posed by the “wonderful blueprint”, and not universal for all people to become classics in the like-minded.

So, I wish, if the “Analects” only the first sentence. Is not to specify a universal it? In other words, “The Analects” a lot of people comment on the matter of out of order, and disorder and the resulting prescription, Which Is Which, emperors were implemented. And Which is WhichScholarImplemented. Perhaps the ultimate thing is just the ultimate, it will have a human in the world their “learning” and “learning.”

Distinctive highland tea culture

Every nation has its own unique food culture. Tibetans have a long history as a nation, and its unique style of eating practices, including the unique Tibetan butter tea is the nutritional drink, with its nutritional raw materials, production methods, well known for the uniqueness. Formed a unique plateau of tea culture.

Tea culture on the Tibetan plateau, at least a thousand years of history. Tea before Tang Dynasty also known as “Mailyard articles of wood,” said: “Wood, bitter tea (tea) is also.” Tibetan tea known as “pod”, was Chinese, “” (tea) in the transliteration. Tea with digestion, quenches thirst, and other special functions to the tired, for lack of oxygen, drying and the meat, butter, tsampa-eating Tibetan people, do not day without tea.

Tibet is not high tea was originally the area, historical records, like back in loose capsule during the day, the Tibetan people began addicted to tea. The tea as a starter, self-cultivation of the drug a long time. Tibetan history book “Tibetan History Collection” on the tea in the Tibetan regions recorded the following story: Tibetan Wangdu Song Mountain Bujie had a serious illness and resting time, the palace roof railing corner came a bird not seen before had a beautiful bird, mouth mouth, a branch, branch with several leaves on the roof, tactfully crow. The king sent to view, the birds take title to the branches to put on the couch. King found that this is a branch not seen before, so take off the leaves in your mouth taste of their ignorance, that fragrance, add boiling water, was actually Shanghao drinks. Then the ministers and the people sent to look for this wonderful tree, going through difficult Han finally found, is tea tree. Since then, tea was introduced to Tibet and Tibetan daily life has become an indispensable drink.

According to Tibetan historical records, the Tibetan plateau prevailing winds of tea, and during the Tang Dynasty from the Songtsan Horse Trade between the beginning. Tang has received a lot of Tibetans in Chinese mainland tea. Srong unified Tibet, married Princess and the Tang dynasty of Nepal into a red princess respect, the commercial trade flourished in Tibet, and Tibetan tea-horse trade has become a major trade with the Tang Dynasty. Tang Emperor when the “fine silk horse trading”, Emperor Chiling’s “frontier horses,” began the Tang Dynasty, tea-horse market and the Tibetan side, with good horses and Tang for tea. In this regard, the Tang Dynasty set up a “Tea Company”, responsible for the tea and horse trade between Tibet. AD 743, the Tang Dynasty and the league, erected a monument in the “Akamine” (nowQinghai LakeEast of the Mountain), the establishment of a “tea-horse trade.” In exchange for tea, Tibet had sent someone operating in Tibetan, Chinese tea trade, known as the “Han five commercial tea.” Save on the Tibetan royal historical records and all kinds of Chinese tea in the record. In Tibetan, “Sino-Tibetan History Collection”, there are two chapters (“tea and bowls of the story appeared in Tibet,” “the type of tea”) devoted to how the tea is passed from the Han to Tibetan situation. Wrote: “For the most proficient in the Han Chinese tea monk, after King Karma meters (ie Chisongdezan) monks learned to make tea cloth Mizha Dagon king learned to make tea Karma meters. This in turn passed on the future down. “identification of the knowledge of good and bad tea Han articles for the” nectar of the sea. ” This shows that with the introduction of tea in Tibet, tea culture also will be widely disseminated in Tibet. Once the tea spread to Tibet, it has the help digestion, oily solution of special features, making it the Tibetan people to drink milk meat eating necessities, from Wang Gonggui people, down to the common people, tea drinking was rampant, and addicted to tea by nature , have the race to compete requirements. Thus, lies in between the two tea-horse ancient road, came into being.

Song Dynasty more than access to Tibetan areas opened up the “brick tea Road”, one after another in the elegant State (now Ya’an City), Li states (Sichuan Hanyuan), tone (Sichuan is the county), and other places to set up “tea-horse trade “, thus opening up through the western Sichuan Ganzi Tibetan tea ceremony Qamdo to ust. This 5,000 km journey the ancient tea ceremony. At that time the state has provided Ya: Tubo Mark for a fine of 120 kg of tea; a middle-Mark for 80 kg of tea; a lower-Mark for 40 kg of tea. Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties have worked in Lhasa, Sakya, Shigatse, Gyantse, Maizhokunggar, Lazi, Angren other places to set off “Tea Company”, the management of tea-horse trade trade. According to records, the early Ming tea cheap your horse, each horse can be changed more than 50 kilograms of tea; Ming Tea base of your horse, each horse can be changed more than 250 kilograms of tea. Republic of China, through the Sichuan-Tibet, Yunnan-Tibet trade, lost a greater amount of tea to Tibet, according to 1941 statistics, the annual output from Kangding to Lhasa in the vicinity of the tea bag for up to 20 million; from Yunnan to Tibet’s tea output of about 2.6 more than packages. This “tea-horse trade,” not only become a trunk Tibetan economy, and promote the development of non-governmental trade in Tibet. Later, the tea-horse trade has expanded to merchant transactions, many of Sichuan, Yunnan, Tibet trafficking of tea merchants, Lee has been several times, forming a winding mountain range in the hinterland of southwest China, the Himalayan mountains in the Tea Horse Road . Between Han and Tibetan tea to horse trade, and the formation of the Central Plains elegant tea culture, tea culture on the formation of the Tibetan Plateau played a role in fueling the rampant growing tea in Tibet. Over time, a new, unique Tibetan butter tea with the gradual formation of culture, drinking Tibetan butter tea has increasingly become the people’s daily necessities.
