Taipei Times - archives: "President Ma Ying-jeou (馬英九) yesterday promised to improve the scandal-plagued professional baseball environment and help develop the national sport.
Ma said the government would work toward saving professional baseball by making it free of gambling fraud.
“Professional baseball is not at fault,” he said. “It is those who abuse the sport that are wrong.”"

no peace
Taipei Times - archives: "Every US president since Wilson has, at least once while in office, uttered the phrase “have no quarrel with” a foreign enemy. Such statements are typically made only days, sometimes hours, before the first US bombs fall. Former US president Bill Clinton promised on the eve of the bombing of Serbia that “I cannot emphasize too strongly that the United States has no quarrel with the Serbian people.”
US President Barack Obama promised from the campaign trail that “We have no quarrel with the Iranian people. They know that President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is reckless, irresponsible and inattentive to their day-to-day needs.”
Presidents employ such language for good reason. They know their public, a self-styled melting pot of peoples, would rather fight dictators than brothers and cousins abroad.
Indeed, Wilson’s initial formulation grew from a demographic and political quandary. More than one-third of Americans in 1917 could trace their heritage back to Germany and its allies. Wilson could not implore his people to “kill the Krauts,” as British or French leaders frequently did, because so many of Wilson’s soldiers were, by ethnicity at least, Krauts themselves.
He instead rhetorically transformed US soldiers from fratricidal killers into liberators of their ancient fatherland."

beef problems and green card about ma
Taipei Times - archives: "Yes, the brouhaha of the week was over Uncle Sam’s “mad cow special” beef. The administration of President Ma Ying-jeou (馬英九) went ahead and lifted some restrictions on US beef imports, much to the delight of the American Institute in Taiwan (AIT), the de facto US imperial outpost — er, embassy — here.
But then came the “American beef storm” (meiguo niu fengbao, 美國牛風暴), as the media here put it."

Taipei Times - archives: "Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) lawmakers urged the government yesterday to ban a Chinese singer from performing in Taipei, citing security concerns.
Chen Sisi (�佷佷), attached to the People's Liberation Army's (PLA) Second Artillery Corps, which is in charge of missiles and nuclear weapons, is scheduled to give a concert at the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall today.
The 33-year-old Chen gained fame last year by singing at the closing of the Beijing Olympics.
DPP Legislator William Lai (�ラ肅) said Chen's performance would give a deceptively friendly impression of the PLA.
'This will dissolve the public's vigilance and hurt our national defense,' Lai said.
Lai said lyrist Qu Yuan (И靮) and music teacher Li Shuanjiang (燠褞蔬) who are accompanying Chen on this trip are also PLA members."

Many students in my classes have told me that they chose my course because they want to know more about Chinese history since 1949, so such a demand does exist among students.
If we want to get a real understanding of China, we cannot allow the media, pressured as they are by their practical interests, to mislead the public. It is important to give our students a thorough and carefully analyzed foundation in the PRC’s history."

此後,她的病情急轉直下,兩個禮拜之內完全喪失語言能力,無法認人,無法行走,不時全身痙攣;三個禮拜之後無法大小解,完全喪失意識,喪失吞嚥能力,必須仰賴鼻胃管進食。四星期後轉到榮總時,已經常忘記呼吸,必須由看護不斷拍打喚醒呼吸的記憶。期間,家屬不但遭受至親驟然衰危的痛苦,也得面對社會因為不了解,所產生的排斥歧視,身心的煎熬實非外人所能體會。"

It is not clear what, if anything, will come of this proposal. It may be meant as a warning to Lo, who has made enemies within the KMT because of her very public criticism of some of her party’s policies and the administration of President Ma Ying-jeou (馬英九)."
