A UNESCO World Heritage Site, The Grand Canal is the longest canal in the world and a famous tourist destination. Starting in Beijing, it passes through Tianjin and the provinces of Hebei, Shandong, Jiangsu and Zhejiang to the city of Hangzhou, linking the Yellow River and Yangtze River. The oldest parts of the canal date back to the 5th century BC, although the various sections were finally combined during the Sui dynasty (581-618 AD). The canal has been admired by many throughout history including Japanese monk Ennin (794-864), Persian historian Rashid al-Din (1247-1318), Korean official Choe Bu (1454-1504), and Italian missionary Matteo Ricci (1552-1610).

系统重合未必合二而一
两大星系在太空中运动相互重合的概率是非常低的，却未必没有可能。一旦重合，会发生什么情况呢？相互吞噬，还是和平共处，自由分离？按照万有引力定律可能是相互吞噬，按照系统相对均衡的理论可能是和平共处、自由分离，我倾向后者。因为两大系统各有形成条件，各有自己的对偶星系，并且取得了相对均衡，相互吞噬会破坏这种均衡。并且，切入是一个渐进的过程，开始于二级恒星系统的切入，甚至三级恒星系统的切入。总之，主星不会首先相遇，对偶正反两大主星偕同各自的星系同时相遇的概率更低，相遇两个星系完全一样的可能性几乎没有！所以，我倾向后者。
理论上的探讨不如实际的观察，多核星系是客观存在的，不排除相互切入的可能性。切入后长期共存，保持相对的独立性，不是没有可能的。这样的切入，可能自由分离。对偶主星携带星系同时相互切入，形成嵌入形态，可能形成相对独立的合二而一长期共存的现象，这种多核星系可能多见，也是多核星系形成的主要原因。
地球周围的太空垃圾非常之多，碰撞之事却罕见发生，更没有融合成为一个星球，可见合二而一也是有条件的。

Pronunciation & Tones
As a tonal language, Chinese Mandarin is unique with its musical tones, syllabic melodies, rhythms and special pronunciation. After studying Chinese for a good amount of time, you may still find it difficult to communicate with native speakers. Learning Chinese is not only mastering the consonants and vowels, but it is also about perfecting your tones and melody. Our featured and unique pronunciation and tones class will focus on improving your pronunciation through fun activities that include but not limited to the practice of tongue twisters, songs and poems, aided by TV shows and audio clips. Fluency and listening comprehension will also be emphasized as part of the expected goals. This course is designed for students who have completed our Beginner level Chinese classes or at an equivalent level of lower intermediate proficiency.
10 sessions (20 hours)
$465 member / $505 non-member
(plus a $25 non-refundable registration fee)
Monday 6:30pm-8:30pm
Winter classes start on January 9, 2017
China Institute offers a wide range of Chinese language classes at every proficiency level, from beginner to advanced. The year-round Private Tutoring has been designed to meet an individual''''s specific language needs.Our experienced instructors can bring private lessons to any location of your choice, and at the convenience of your schedule. In the Studio Program, we''''ll offer short courses of Calligraphy, Brush Painting, & Tai Chi. Please contact: tfang@chinainstitute.org or call 212-744-8181 ext. 150
Classical Chinese II: A Rare Linguistic Gem
- Taught by Ben Wang, Senior Lecturer
Tuesdays, 6:30-8:30pm
10 sessions (20 hours)
January 10 - March 14
Tuition: $465 members / $505 non-members
(plus a $25 non-refundable registration fee)
Requirements for taking this course:
Knowledge of basic grammar points and reading characters of the vernacular Chinese, which is at least one year Chinese study at a university or college Chinese program, or similar proficiency level. For those who did not attend the first session of this course, Classical Chinese I, it is highly recommended that you contact the office for an assessment.
Course Description:
In the lives of all those interested in world cultures, there is surely a moment when the door to classical Chinese must be open for them to come to better understand the poetry, literature, music, drama, and fine arts. Far from being a demised and vanished (or vanishing) language, classical Chinese, at its ripe age of more than 3,000 years, glows not only as a sine-qua-non to the appreciation of classical written matters in Chinese, it is used by all writers to this day in composing fine modern poetry, novels, essays, and journalistic reports and comments. Most importantly, classical Chinese language, sound and alive, makes an astonishing appearance in daily conversations often embellished by countless common sayings and proverbs in classical (or semi-classical) Chinese. These are as much an indispensable and integral part of both the spoken and written Chinese as they are the most popular and favorite phrases to all Chinese language speakers and writers. |

发现了一个 洛杉矶大骗子 -- 王XX （Wang Ximeng)
http://www.ahedu.gov.cn/28/view/236042.shtml
他自称1988年从合肥师范学院的前身安徽教育学院化学系毕业后，1992年取得中国科学技术大学硕士学位，1994年取得南京大学博士学位，1996年完成香港大学博士后研究工作，同年至北京大学任教，聘为副教授。1997年去往国外发展，现为美国加州州立大学教育学院副院长、教授。近几年到安徽省多个二三线高校演讲，吹嘘自己的经历，整个是唐骏的复制品。我对王希萌的经历有着深度了解，我不想让他的欺骗行为再欺骗善良的人们，现在站出来揭露他。此人跟本没有在美国加州州立大学有任何工作和职称。你可以查查下面网站http://transparentcalifornia.com/salaries/all/
加州公立开工资的人都在里面，你看看有没有叫Wang Ximeng的人。附件是此人近照。此人只是在洛杉矶开了几家皮包公司，在中美之间倒卖一些东西而已。 你们可以上网google 就能发现，此人从没有在美国正式职业。他的手机号是562-841-1812，Email是xmwang10@yahoo.com; xmwang10@gmail.com， qq: 267350817. 我不想让他再在国内安徽省各高校之间行骗。谢谢你们能够认真查处此事

评论：期待平等合理解决华人华侨的退休养老金问题 |

我們在臺灣也有同樣的問題，我在研究院工作22年，因為當时到台湾探亲，单位人事處辦事員，三千多块人民币，给我办了离职，我找到当时的红头文件，里面有规定连同陪同人的车马费规定要给，（单位没给，可见执行文件也是断章取义）我们在中国工作22年工龄应该给我们养老金，却因为没有中国的户口身份（难道台湾的户籍不是中国的吗？），而无从办理。
台湾是中国的，这是我们中国政府一贯强调的，可是执行政策的人却不这样看。所有的部门都推卸责任，说是要等中央的文件，我们现在的处境连华侨都不如。华侨还有组织，我们在台湾的中国人不知道到哪去找。希望政府能够给我们来台湾的人做坚强的后盾，组成一个部门来解决我们的问题。 |

评论：阿姆斯特丹自由大学：早期月球的水甚至比地球还多 |
|

60年前，一位名叫吉纳德·柯伊伯的科学家首先提出在海王星轨道外存在一个小行星带，其中的星体被称为KBO（Kuiper Belt Objects)。1992年，人类发现了第一个KBO；今天，我们知道KBO地带有大约10万颗直径超过100公里的星体。以后，天文学界就以纳德·柯伊伯名字命名此小行星带。这个小行星带是如何形成的呢？天文学家认为柯伊伯带天体是太阳系形成时遗留下来的一些团块。在45-46亿年前，有许多这样的团块在更接近太阳的地方绕着太阳转动，它们互相碰撞，有的就结合在一起，形成地球和其他类地行星，以及气体巨行星的固体核。在远离太阳的地方，那里的团块处在深度的冰冻之中，就一直原样保存了下来。柯伊伯带天体也许就是这样的一些遗留物，它们在太阳系刚开始形成的时候就已经在那里了。
45-46亿年是目前天文学家公认的地球的年龄和太阳系的年龄，而银河系的年龄是136-144亿年，是根据大爆炸理论和放射性物质的衰变周期计算出来的，应该说具有一定的科学依据，但也受制于取样的局限。我认为太阳系是伴随银河系同期形成的，也许稍晚一些，但不会太多，因为太阳系距离银核大约2.5万光年的位置（据说银河系直径是十万光年，太阳系大约位于半径2.5万光年的位置），银核的形成演变需要一个过程，宇宙射线中氢射线、氦射线的速度不及光速的375分之一(按所谓太阳风速的最高值每秒800千米计算)，抵达太阳系的位置需要937.5万年，演变成太阳系还需要一个过程，但不会相差近百亿年。45-46亿年应该是地球的年龄还比较贴近，因为地球前面还有一系列行星。不过，如果太阳系巨行星与太阳同期形成，地球的年龄也要重新计算，可能比45-46亿年多得多。
不同的星际形成理论和取样范围会有不同计算结果，人类的认识程度是一个渐进的过程，不足为奇。
太阳风是太阳系宇宙射线的主要来源，主要成分是正物质高能氢、氦粒子，网上搜索风速是每秒200-800千米，密度随距离改变，速度可能也会发生变化。
与太阳同轨，可能有数十万计的太阳系，前后亦是如此，宇宙射线的碰撞是不可避免的，特别是星际磁场交汇处，星际磁场边缘。伴随碰撞的是核聚变、核裂变，相对高端化学元素的形成。没有核聚变、核裂变，则是氢、氦同位素的冻结，太空雪和太空雪球的形成，数十亿、上百亿年的累积，形成柯伊伯带天体是完全可能的！
正负电荷的聚变形成光子，光子聚变形成原子，正反化学元素的比例应该是相同的。与主星不同的化学元素转化为宇宙射线，被相反物质星球所吸引，仍有一部分转化为太空雪、太空雪球，成为彗星和陨石的主要来源，柯伊伯带天体就是这样形成的
