vehicle 等方面的rating. mm其实不用太难过。这款car seat 在crash protection
方面的rating和之前有个mm提到的graco snugride是一样的，都是good. 而evenflo的
另一款embrace 5 LX在crash protection的rating比graco snugride还要高两个等级，
属于excellent.所以之前有个mm说evenflo家的东西质量差我不是特别认同。我家宝宝
现在用的就是evenflo 家的embrace 5 LX，娃出生之前有个朋友还送了我们一个graco
snugride，但是娃他爹坚持认为这个embrace的crash protection rating 比朋友送的
高，所以坚持让娃在车上用这个便宜的evenflo，那个graco就放在家里平时给娃坐着玩

一首在海外华人中轰动的诗：你们究竟还要不要中国人活？ (2010-11-30 04:05:38)
标签： 杂谈
一首在海外华人当中引起轰动的英文诗：你们究竟还要不要中国人活？
以下这首英文詩，相傳是出於紐約州立大學水牛城分校榮譽退休
物理學教授 Duo-Liang Lin 的手筆。這位华裔
學者表達的是整個中華民族的百年憤慨 ───过去中国人由于民穷國弱倍受列强
欺凌，如今好不容易经济起飞却
又倍受西方的打压敵視。中國人究竟做了什么？为甚麼无论怎么做都不對？你們西方人
究竟想不让中国人生存？
究竟希望我們怎樣生存？
這首詩近期在海外华網熱傳，原因是它反映了华裔在海外
被白种人种族主义打压的生態，抒發了海外華裔長
期以來遭受的集體壓抑。
该詩原文以英文撰寫，曾经在《華盛頓郵報》刊登，是海外华人回击西
方主流社会雙重標準打压以及西方种族
偏見的一箭。

作为世界上最大国家的执政者，中国共产党持续执政已达62年之久。那么迄今为止，中
共的执政业绩到底如何呢？
众所周知，在1949年中共建政以前，由于战火肆虐，外敌横行，中国的国土四分五裂，
满目疮痍；人民普遍食不果腹，人均寿命仅为41岁。但在今天，中国已跻身世界第二大
经济体，成为在全球有重要影响的大国；人民生活迅速改善，人均寿命已达74岁。
但问题还不至于此，对于中共的执政地位，西方的政治和知识精英即使不是直接否定，
也难掩其不快之意。这自然有其原因，在在西方媒体对中国的叙述中，有五大误解流传
甚广，甚嚣一时。以真相揭穿这些误解，已是刻不容缓。
误解一：由于没有选举，中共的执政地位没有得到其治下人民的认可。根据皮尤研究中

谁能调动英国官方配合制造谷开来事件？非博源基金会这只黑手莫属！
谁能调动纽约时报爆料温贪腐，还是非博源基金会莫属！
1） 且不说法庭上的谷开来是个替身，一个跨国“薄古杀人案”法庭程序居然只有一天
，被告毫无争辩；
2） 居然王立军案法庭程序居然一模一样，只有一天，被告毫无争辩;
3） 两案的法庭审判人员都非常年轻，看起来只有二三十岁，可见那些老奸巨猾的幕后
黑手自己都惧怕有一天会翻案，被抓住。
4） 中央电视台播报审判结果时，大段大段地叙述，只有在最后放出没有上下连贯内容
的“承认犯罪”一两句话。那么，古、王承认的是央视报道的案件还是根本不相关的其
他职责？
不让中国人讨论和发表反对意见本身就说明，这是一起阴谋！能让所有的中央委员举手
投票这更说明公鸡黑手对中国的控制有多深。

I speak to you tonight from Washington, D.C. The state of our economy is
tenuous but our people remain the greatest example of freedom and prosperity
the world has ever known.
People say America is exceptional. I agree, but it’s not the complexion of
our skin or the twists in our DNA that make us unique. America is
exceptional because we were founded upon the notion that everyone should be
free to pursue life, liberty, and happines... 阅读全帖 |

apartheid hero's spirit of reconciliation.
But the peace and harmony did not stretch to South African President Jacob

You are dead, the Square is dead.
