[寂静时光]今天的喜事——图书证!
MK 发表于 2010-4-22 13:00:00

今天完成了移居香港之后的一件大事——办理香港公共图书馆的图书证。整个手续非常简单,只要提交身份证正本、地址证明再填写好简单表格,一分钟之内我就拿到了我的免费图书证。方便的是在登记之后我的身份证也可以作为图书证的附属卡使用,功能完全一致。

MK 发表于 2010-1-21 0:35:00

Starting from 2011, New York Times will not be free for on-line viewers. It is less than a year from now. The news was reported and debated on many other news media today.

[Words on water]Jimmy Carter's Crisis of Confidence speech
MK 发表于 2009-8-3 12:37:00

On July 15 1979, Jimmy Carter delivered a national speech, Crisis of Confidence, to address the critical energy issue in US. “Mr. Carter’s sense of our own accountability, his warnings about the debilitating effects of self-centered divisiveness were the speech’s true heresies. They are also the very elements that keep it relevant today.“ Wrote Mr. Gordon Steward, the then deputy chief speech writer to the President, in the New York Tim

[Words on water]Why being outrageous is good?
MK 发表于 2009-7-16 20:30:00

I was struggling with all the unfamiliar terminologies such as misogyny and arachnophobia when a line in Tim Kreider’s article Isn’t It Outrageous stroke me: “If you’re anything like me, you spend about 87 percent of your mental life winning imaginary arguments that are never actually going to take place.” In that very moment I knew that I had to read this post and I would have fun.

[寂静时光]从傅大使的最新《卫报》评论文章说起 
MK 发表于 2009-7-16 12:31:00

7月13日,中国驻英国大使傅莹女士于在《卫报》(Guardian)发表题为《新疆是个好地方》(Unity is deep in China’s blood)一文,解释中国国家和民族团结政策。去年9月4日,傅女士在同样在卫报发表了一篇从历史和现实的角度解释奥运会火炬和西藏问题对于中国人的意义的文章(《Bringing Out the Best in Us》)曾经引起了国内外舆论很多积极影响。这次傅莹女士再度挥笔,确实很值得关注。事实上,这篇短评也的确吸引了不少读者进行热烈讨论。

由于近来西方各大报纸充斥着对新疆问题的偏颇之见,我可以想象凤凰卫视的新闻编辑们在看到这条新闻之后的愉悦之情。所以15日早上凤凰早班车报道了这篇评论文章以及傅莹女士在英国和当地媒体就此次新疆发生的************所进行的沟通。傅莹女士是位风度极佳的外交家,整个新闻故事就像一阵清新而又振奋人心的晨风。

[寂静时光]幽闭三小时
MK 发表于 2009-6-18 18:20:00

这一切说出来有点像村上的短篇小说,尤其在他的《奇鸟形状录》里面还曾经出现过类似的独自一人呆在幽闭空间的情节。只不过可怜的渡边是半自愿地展开精神探索之旅,而我这个经历则是完全意料之外的诡异事件。

The Economist Intelligence Unit’s democracy index is published biannually since 2006. It has released its 2nd edition reflecting the situation as of late 2008. The analysis is based on five categories:  electoral process and pluralism; civil liberties; the functioning of government; political participation; and political

[Words on water]Where to buy your computer in future?
MK 发表于 2009-6-10 0:24:00

M forwarded today’s Wall Street Journal article to me this afternoon. I knew exactly he would do so the moment I read the piece this morning. He wrote, “It’s not going in the right direction.” I agreed. This should not have happened in today’s China. But they have crossed the line anyway.
