发帖数: 5892 | 1 近一段时期，加拿大北极地区的安全利益问题在地理条件变化等因素的推动下重新浮现在公众面前，并且其未来走向依然无法预知。国际社会对日益紧缺的资源的争夺早已开始在北极地区上演，加拿大北极安全问题专家罗布休伯特（Rob Huebert）就曾说过：“全球气候变化、资源价格上涨、国际政治斗争以及不断取得的技术进步使北极地区的开发难度降低，因而也使其更加富有吸引力。”据《北极气候影响评估报告》（Arctic Climate Impact Assessment）预测，气候变化将会导致北极地区温度上升，北极海冰数量在每年夏季末期也会有所降低。这些条件促使北极日益成为国际活动的开放地区，被巨大经济利益前景所吸引的各种外部势力也越来越多地参与北极事务。因此，加拿大保卫北方地区国家主权和安全的能力将受到更加严峻的考验。资源竞争、季节性航道以及移民问题都增加了北方地区爆发冲突的可能性，此外加拿大与其环北极圈邻国悬而未决的边界争端因北极问题的国际化而更加复杂，而且这还有可能对北方地区的人口结构产生巨大影响。
广袤而且事实上并不设防的北极地区为一些不法份子以及潜在的敌对势力创造了许多有利条件。由于缺乏适度的监管设施... 阅读全帖 |

Financial Regulatory Reform
Updated: Sept. 20, 2011
The near-collapse of the world financial system in the fall of 2008 and the
global credit crisis that followed gave rise to widespread calls for changes
in the regulatory system. A year and a half later, in July 2010, Congress
passed a bill expanding the federal government's role in the markets,
reflecting a renewed mistrust of financial markets after decades in which
Washington stood back from Wall Street with wide-eyed admiration.

The Chinese Exclusion Act was repealed by the 1943 Magnuson Act, which

naturalized citizens and stop hiding from the threat of deportation. It also

The first weapon-scale prototype of a futuristic Navy railgun began
undergoing firing tests last week, the next big step toward putting the
electromagnetic superweapon on U.S. warships by 2020. The Navy envisions
using railguns to destroy enemy ships, defend against enemy missiles, or
bombard land targets in support of Marines hitting the beaches.
Newly released video shows the prototype railgun us... 阅读全帖 |

《江山靠谁守·诉衷情》
当年忠贞为国筹，
何曾怕断头？
如今天下红遍，
江山靠谁守？
业未竟，
身躯倦，
鬓已秋。
你我之辈，
忍将夙愿，
付与东流？
2. 证实了1976年之前根本没有所谓饿死三千万或者大饥荒之说。
3. 毛泽东1975年的担心，或者说1964年的担心，都变成了现实。
4. 毛泽东唯一的遗产就是留给人民的造反精神，终将成燎原之火。

一鸣口述，海攀记录整理
第二章 新兵训练营
我们又坐了几个小时的大轿车，一直坐到大湖边的海军训练基地，就是Boot Camp。到
达那里的时候，已经半夜了，好多人都困了，但是不让我们睡觉。
只要一上巴士，那些训练我们的军官，就开始对着我们喊叫（Yell），这就是训练的开
始。“Get off the bus！”（下车！） “Stand in the line！”（站到队里去！）
他们就这样对着你的脸叫唤，一直冲你吼，直到你毕业，因为你已经不是平民了，你要
被训练成一个军人。他们要是对你好好说话，到了打仗时也这样，你就不能打仗。打什
么仗呀，这么软的，人家不是把你打死了吗？军队里要是没有这种气氛，你就当不了军
人。他们就是这样训练你。
下车以后，地上画着45度分开的脚，我们必须按照脚印，一个一个地站在那儿，一排一
排的，有几百个人。我们这些从美国不同地方来的人，就在那天晚上，集中到那个地方
，一起开始训练。
我临来这里的时候，他们告诉我不用拿任何东西，可我还是带来一个小书包，装着一些
随身用品。很多人都是这样，都带着自己的包。我们刚站好队，那些军官就让我们把书... 阅读全帖 |

This is what you get with group play. It is far more important to win a
medal than to lose a game. It is a common practice to sacrifice a position
in contests from chess and checkers to baseball and other sports to get an
advantage. This is pure strategy, well within the rules and there is nothing
immoral about it. No rules were broken and no penalty should have been
imposed. If the rules don't pro... 阅读全帖 |

”延安日记“的出版激起轩然大波并不奇怪，因为这本日记甚至连基本事实都站不住脚
。虽然书中一些细节可能源于弗拉迪米洛夫在延安的亲身经历，但是更多的内容不可能
出自像弗拉迪米诺夫这样一位诚实而又消息灵通的观察员之手。要么该书的大部分内容
是在中苏分裂之后由某些试图抹黑中国共产党和美国的人士所撰写，因而对四十年代的
华北显得一无所知；要么弗拉迪米诺夫在延安完全被孤立隔绝，以至于他消息闭塞，不
得不靠想象来杜撰日记。这两种可能互不冲突，可能兼而有之。
The furor caused by Doubleday's publication of the "diaries" was well
justified, for they can hardly be taken at face va... 阅读全帖 |

THE milk was marketed as pure and wholesome, and it looked fine to the naked

had paid good money for it on the open market. It would take thousands of
sick children before lawmakers did anything to stop it.
