l  美國智庫CSIS:2030年時,南海將成中國湖,有如加勒比海是美國湖一般。」

l  美國派軍艦穿越南海之訊息不明確。到底是「自由航行」(freedom of navigation)以挑戰中國對島礁的主權呢?還是「無害通過」(innocent passage)間接承認了中國對島礁的主權?

呂秀蓮談蔡英文兩岸路線

l   呂秀蓮過去經常批評蔡英文,被黨內形容有「呂蔡心結」。

l   呂說蔡:「她絕對不是一個簡單的人物,她可以把民進黨所有的派系制服,現在叫英派,其實派系沒有消除,因為她跳出來,派系通通靠攏。」

l   呂:「我剛好上了一個電視節目,我忽然想到世界名畫『蒙娜麗莎的微笑』,我覺得蔡總統很有政治的蒙娜麗莎的味道。」

統戰,蔡英文借用的毛式武器

2016/01/28 多維 牛淚

l   在本次選舉中,蔡英文更是把「統戰」策略用到極致。她有效團結首都台北的白色力量,使柯文哲從側翼對國民黨發起進攻,鞍前馬後地為民進黨在台北和新北等選區的立法委員站台效力;她團結並爭取「時代力量」等年輕世代和政治素人,支持他們在各自的選區和國民黨角力;她用「客家妹挺客家人」的口號爭取客家人支持,使客家人集中的苗栗縣,這個國民黨的傳統票倉,變成自己的勢力範圍以壯大聲勢。

Narciso Yepes - Romance - Jeux interdits – Guitare

Youtube, Feb 14, 2016

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vBgDq5N6lCs&app=desktop

accessed Feb 14, 2016

 

l  The most popular piece of music in Spain, the land of chivalry, magic and passion. Yet far from being ribald, and rowdy, it is elegant, and elevating. It's composer is anonymous, its source unknown, and its name, previously lacking, now borrowed from the 1952 French film "Jeux Interdits" that used it as the theme song. The player, grand master Narciso Yepes, reportedly composed the guitar music at age 9. But he himself denied it. Another theory was that Fernando Sor composed it in the early 19th century, which later was overhtrown. It origin has remained a mystery to this day. Yepes' playing, with sensitive handling of each sentence, is superb, and worthy of repeated listening and savoring.

l  Chong-Pin Lin Feb. 14, 2016

l  這是西班亞最常聽到的旋律,大街小巷,從早到晚,都會飄來。此音樂雖普受歡迎,卻毫不低俗。高雅、含蓄、清純。是最美而持久的情操。來源不詳,作曲者無名。表演者是西班牙古典吉他大師。他的琴藝我從1960年代後期便開始欣賞嚮往,如今將近半世紀。

Dmitri Shostakovich: Jazz Suite, Waltz No. 2

Youtube, Feb 10, 2016

accessed Feb 10, 2016

 l  This piece of music, hauntingly beautiful to me, seems to convey a short-lived happiness to be indulged with abandon as the large condition is that of despair and desparation. Only a composer who lived in the shadow of persecution and condemnation by Stalin could have written it.

l  Chong-Pin Lin Feb.10, 2016

l  在絕望中把握短暫快樂的時光盡情歡笑。只有一生受史大林迫害的偉大作曲家蕭士達考衛奇寫的出來。許多電影用它作配樂,情節早已淡去,此旋律在心中恆久不散。

l  林中斌 2016210

l  Interesting revelation! My theory is that after Xi reappeared on September 14 from his "mysterious" disappearance , Beijing's management of the Diaoyutai or Senkakus issue was taken up by him from Hu Jingtao who probably had given the Japanese a more lenient response. Chong-Pin Lin Feb. 8, 2016
