ActionScript Developer's Guide to PureMVC

作為大灣區發展的先頭部隊，在「小香港」打滾十多年，作者「波是圓的-屈薯彭先生」自嘲做廠長如同做「獄長」，管理一個大監倉，工人像「監獄軍訓一樣，環境欠佳，感覺差。」 工人每天上班十多小時，領取薪金每小時1.5元人民幣（2005年），而且飯堂饍食長期熱量不足。作者認為很大部分原因是由於西方客人喜歡Race to the Bottom所致的。作者推崇的豐田生產模式，在他管理的工廠卻一點也用不上。 本書將全面揭示最真實的國情── 廠佬生活 對外要請官員、客戶吃山珍海味、飲茅台、找女人； 對內要督促工人勤力上進、處理桃色糾紛、欠薪問題、請「童工」等等。 工廠秘聞 工人偷電線、大桶天拿水沖進馬桶、主管榨壓下屬夾錢買水，還不時要應付黑幫橫行、供應商走數、突擊驗廠…… 「包二奶」及黃色事業 「二奶」逐個數：湖南女要你付出感情，四川女要你付出金錢，湖北女要你付上性命 ； 「莞式服務」大開眼界：戲水鴛鴦、蜜蜂採蜜、空中飛人、冰火五重天、六味地黃。 隨著東莞衰落，經濟衰退，上司被抓，法律的風險大了，作者意興闌珊的遞上自願離職信。 「我很記得，離開的時候，頭也不回，就離開了工廠。」一語道破作者心聲！ 作者曾在東莞當工廠總經理，有辛酸，有勤勞，有開心，也有不快的事情。這本書，是他成長的經歷，是他長大的過程；而寫這本書的目的，是為了記載東莞的歷史、社會風貌和社會情況。 東莞，是中國的縮影，有好的一面，經濟向上發展的一面，也有壞的一面，社會敗壞的一面，官員和商人貪污和打關係、地下黃色事業、黑社會橫行霸道、人民素質的敗壞和工廠的不濟和勞工受剝削。這本書，除了是為了記載作者的歷史、東莞的歷史，更是為了理解中國的一本書。以東莞作為視角，理解中國的好與壞。 作者想將這本書獻給下一代，希望下一代對中國有更好的了解，對國情有更好的認識。 本書特色 邀得知名漫畫家阿塗參與插圖部分，令封面生色不少。 作者毫無保留分享在東莞工作期間的所見所聞，令讀者大開眼界。

“Red and blue appear in stark contrast with one another on the map of America. But the even more profound divide is the alienation in our hearts.” This work is a striking analysis of the struggles faced by American society, written from the perspective of a Chinese professor of history who spent 60 years of his life in the US. As both an insider and outsider to this country, Cho-yun Hsu is able to perceive what many other Americans may take for granted, and it is this viewpoint—together with his decades of experience teaching history at the University of Pittsburgh—that make this work so unusual and worthwhile. This work analyzes American history through a wide range of topics, including culture, politics, economics, industrialization, class, ethnicity, the urban-rural divide, and more. Expertly analyzing the origins of the tension and conflict between different classes and ethnic groups in American society, this book seeks to offer a way forward from a humanistic perspective, in the

St. Stephen’s Girls’ College is one of the many schools run under the auspices of the Anglican Church in Hong Kong. Starting as a tiny missionary school for upper-class Chinese girls and their younger brothers, it has evolved into a large establishment, comprising kindergarten, primary and secondary sections, playing its full part in the public sector of education and now serving a complete socio-economic cross-section of the community. As one of the earliest schools for girls in the territory, St. Stephen’s played a significant role in the opening up of educational opportunities for Chinese girls. This book records the history and development of the school and is written for its 90th Anniversary, using much original source material. The author, who was head of the school for over thirty years, has set this history within the educational, social and political context of the times. This book will be of obvious interest to those who have a connection with the school: council members, t

本書集結六篇論文（第一、三、四、六篇德文，第二篇西班牙文，第五篇義大利文），本書為因應時代變遷下的教育環境及學生職涯挑戰，在教學方法上所提出新的論述及建構。 This book contains essays by various teachers from different universities and departments with the aim of presenting modern teaching methods for the changed learning and study conditions on the basis of theoretical preliminary considerations. Language teachers at Taiwanese universities often encounter similar difficulties in designing lessons: students’ increasing frustration and lack of motivation. Many students experience a high level of frustration and demotivation; they cannot find future prospects in language studies. Confronted with reality of time-consuming internships, part-time jobs and life, many students become painfully aware that a linguistic degree won’t prepare them for later work or provides career opportunities. In addition, they realize their low language skills and life experiences. Aware of that problem, the language departments have to find new teaching methods and create curricula which

This ground-breaking edited collection draws together Australian historical scholarship on Chinese women, their gendered migrations, and their mobile lives between China and Australia. It considers different aspects of women’s lives, both as individuals and as the wives and daughters of immigrant men. While the number of Chinese women in Australia before 1950 was relatively small, their presence was significant and often subject to public scrutiny. Moving beyond traditional representations of women as hidden and silent, this book demonstrates that Chinese Australian women in the twentieth century expressed themselves in the public eye, whether through writings, in photographs, or in political and cultural life. Their remarkable stories are often inspiring and sometimes tragic and serve to demonstrate the complexities of navigating female lives in the face of racial politics and imposed categories of gender, culture, and class. Historians of transnational Chinese migration have come

當你購買這本書時，我知道你可能正在面臨一些考驗，或者正走向一條未知的道路。你或許會因為不暸解自己的選擇是否正確、或不確定自己的命運是好是壞而心生恐懼，而這本書將會替你的疑惑解答。 中國歷史上的僧侶玄奘，也就是在《西遊記》中遠赴西方取經的唐三藏，他的任務是到印度取經，帶回中國宣揚佛法。在玄奘取經的途中，他遭遇到許多猛獸和魔鬼的威脅，即使在沙悟淨、豬八戒和孫悟空三位護送者的保護下，取經之路仍充滿重重考驗。而當時，觀世音現身幫助玄奘完成他神聖的任務，觀世音賜給玄奘「觀音三十二卦」，這樣一來，當玄奘面對困難時，就可以藉此詢問他的運勢，進而運用當中的智慧克服難關。同時觀世音告訴玄奘:「現在我知道你要到印度取經，前方有許多考驗正等著你，但至少你必須先懂得分辨好運及惡運，到時才得以知其好壞，而我會用觀音卦來協助你。每一天，我會教導你一個卦，你會立即從我的卦中得知運氣好壞與否。」我們可以發現所有人，包括唐三藏都有遭逢惡運的時候。即便是佛陀也難逃祂的惡運，因佛陀的表哥因為忌妒佛陀，而從山崖上推下岩石想要砸死他時，佛陀並沒有躲過，甚至被落下的巨石砸到雙腳。 運勢分之好壞，是我們無法從中選擇只要好運、而不要惡運。事實上，我們的運氣就像是一個週期，如漲潮和退潮、白晝與黑夜，甚至如同四季有更迭之時。也就是說，我們的運氣並非是一個永恆的狀態，而是會改變的。當好運來臨時，下一個週期就必定會是惡運；當惡運來臨，下一個週期就必定會是好運。我們無法準確地知道運氣是大好或大壞，好運和惡運是一個生命週期，就像經濟繁榮必有蕭條之時。經濟難以掌控，甚至無法預知經濟繁榮或者經濟蕭條的狀況會持續多久，我們只能隨著它因應進退。事實上，我們在這個物質的世界中是依照自然的法則運作，而我們的運氣即是自然的一部分，我們不需要緊抓著好運不放，也不需要對惡運過度反應，唯一我們可做的即是與它共處，無論發生什麼事，我們只需要坦然的面對它。 當好運來臨時，我們必須說「謝謝」；面對惡運時，我們只需要欣然地接受它，運用智慧去解決它帶來的難題。運氣就像鐘擺一樣來回擺盪，但當你的運氣正在向上攀升時，你要學習如何抓住正確時機；而當你的運氣正在走下坡時，你要知道如何退避，並儲存你的能量等到下一個好運週期到來。也就是說你不能在不對的時機裏做出不對的行動。在好的運勢裏採取積極的行動才能輕鬆達成我們的目標；而在不好的運勢裏，最好的方法就是「等

Adaptive reuse refers to reusing an old building for a purpose other than which it was originally built or designed. This conservation approach has become increasingly popular around the world. However, there are few publications that focus on its application in Asia. This book fills this gap by looking at both unique and shared aspects of adaptive reuse in three Asian urban centers: Hong Kong, Shanghai, and Singapore. Building on government policy documents and extensive field work, this book contextualizes adaptive reuse in each city and reveals the impetus behind a wide range of projects from revitalization in Hong Kong, commercial development in Shanghai, to community building in Singapore. The introductory chapter sets adaptive reuse within an international perspective, noting salient differences and similarities between Asia and other parts of the world. It also anchors the discussion within a regional perspective, focusing on the similarities and differences between Hong Kong,

Testimony to the emotional truth of their life together even in these increasingly trying times. The memoir Ordinary Days by the scholar and critic Leo Ou-fan Lee and his wife Esther Yuk-ying Lee brings to this Hong Kong series an intensely personal touch, consciously echoing the great sentimental memoir of 18th-century China, Shen Fu’s Six Chapters of a Floating Life. With disarming candour, Leo and Esther lay bare their hearts so unreservedly, to share with us their story of love and suffering, charting in a series of memorable chapters their shared spiritual quest. This is a brave book. It lays bare in a most unusual way the heart and soul of a charming and highly cultivated Chinese couple, the scholar and critic Leo Ou-fan Lee and his wife Esther Lee Yuk-ying. It charts the love story of two individuals who are no longer young, and it also boldly breaks the taboo surrounding the twin topics of depression and suicide. Set partly against the recent backdrop of some of Hong Kong’s m

內容簡介： 1644年，南京一位名叫曹君義的出版商，印製了一幅獨特的世界地圖，他稱之為「天下全圖」。其雖沿襲了某些可上溯宋元時期的中國慣例，卻也借鑒了一幅由奧特柳斯（Ortelius）設計、耶穌會傳教士利瑪竇在南京印製的歐洲版世界地圖。現今在兩個國家圖書館中仍保存了曹君義版地圖：其一在北京，另一在倫敦。本書的兩個章節，原是發表在中央研究院郭廷以學術講座的講稿，每章即是以這兩本曹君義地圖中的一本作為出發點，去重建一段世界地圖的歷史，以此回顧早期的中國和歐洲在繪製世界地圖上的嘗試，並展望中國的世界地圖（如曹君義的版本）對歐洲地圖學的影響。這段歷史表明了：歐洲人仰賴中國人對亞洲的知識，並不亞於中國人倚賴歐洲人對世界的認識。今日我們所知道的世界地圖，正是在這種相互作用下，於焉誕生。 Completing the Map of the World: Cartographic Interaction between China and Europe In 1644, a Nanjing publisher named Cao Junyi printed a unique world map that he called “a complete map of all under Heaven.” He followed certain Chinese conventions going back to the Song and Yuan dynasties, but he also drew on a European map of the world designed by Ortelius and printed in Nanjing by the Jesuit missionary Matteo Ricci. Copies of this map survive today in two national libraries, one in Beijing and the other in London. The two chapters of this book, originally delivered as the Kuo Ting-yee Memorial Lectures at Academic Sinica, each take one of these

Prized by Chinese and foreign merchants as an essential commodity along a vast trade network, silk served multiple roles throughout the ancient world: as fabric for garments, as a form of currency and method of tax payment, and as a medium and subject matter for professional artists and the literati class. Over the centuries, silk fabrics have remained synonymous with beauty and are entwined throughout Chinese art and literature. Extending from the Qing dynasty to the mid-20th century, UMAG’s silk textile collection encompasses a diverse range of subjects and formats that include hanging scrolls, framed panels, banners and robes. Each artwork exemplifies the sophisticated craftsmanship of the artisans and the collective stories of the Qing dynasty’s textile industry. 絲綢在龐大的貿易網絡中，一直是備受中外商旅追捧的商品。它在古代世界所扮演的角色極為豐富──絲綢既是一種紡織原料，亦是一種貨幣和用以賦稅之物，更是藝術家和文人的創作媒介和題材。多個世紀以來，絲綢是美的象徵，它與中國藝術和文學緊密交織。香港大學美術博物館所藏清代至二十世紀中葉的中國絲織物，題材豐富，形式多樣，包括立軸、掛屏、幡及龍袍等。每件織物既展現出工匠的鬼斧神工，亦訴說着清代紡織業的種種故事。

2012年諾貝爾文學獎得主——莫言，獲獎後首部作品 從人的故事出發，莫言探討「人性」的最新代表作 「莫言將夢幻寫實主義與民間故事、歷史和當代社會合而為一。」──諾貝爾獎委員會 The Nobel Prize in Literature 2012 was awarded to Mo Yan "who with hallucinatory realism merges folk tales, history and the contemporary”. 許多年後，當我成為一個小說家，當年的許多幻想，都被我寫進了小說。 自己的故事總是有限的，講完了自己的故事，就必須講他人的故事。於是，我的親人們的故事，我的村人們的故事，以及我從老人們口中聽到過的祖先們的故事，就像聽到集合令的士兵一樣，從我的記憶深處湧出來。他們用期盼的目光看著我，等待著我去寫他們。 ——莫言「諾貝爾文學獎演講」 這部小說，我是作為一個寫作者，同時也是作為作品裡的一個人物，深度地介入到這部書裡。 《晚熟的人》裡面一系列故事，這些人物，有的是我的朋友，有的甚至跟我像孿生兄弟一樣的彼此地知己。這七、八年來確實有很多很多的感受，彷彿只能通過這樣的一個角度才能把自己的這些豐富感受用文學的方式表現出來。 我想我能否超越自己，能否打破諾獎這個「魔咒」，現在不好判斷，但是我一直在努力，差不多十年來，儘管我發表的作品不多，但是還是一直在寫作，一直在做準備，也就是說我花費在案頭上的準備工作遠比我寫這本新書的時間要多。 ——2020.8莫言媒體訪談 ／ 《晚熟的人》是莫言得獎後首部結集出版的短篇小說集 十二篇作品可以一窺莫言八年間的變與不變 「晚熟」既可能是大器晚成、後勁十足，也可能是後知後覺、恍然大悟，甚至不計一切，後發制人。從「晚」與「熟」意義各種可能的排列組合裡，莫言觀察當代中國形形色色的現象，也思索後社會主義本身是否也是晚熟症候群的一端。 晚熟是時間的考驗，經過大風大浪，作家看盡一切。傳奇不奇，他要書寫平常裡的不堪，也要記錄那屈辱裡的高潔。晚熟的作家冷眼觀世，心照不宣，但更可以自行其是，笑罵由人。在這一轉折點上，莫言開始實驗他的「晚期風格」。 ——王德威（美國哈佛大學Edward C.

This is a most unusual book. For several decades Xi Xi has been widely known for her award-winning poetry and fiction. This time, she has chosen to write about the teddy bears she began making in 2005, after treatment for cancer, in order to improve the mobility of her right hand. She made the bears herself from scratch, choosing some of her favourite characters from history and legend such as the Taoist philosopher Master Zhuang, the Mongol ruler Genghis Khan, and Beauty and the Beast. She also created exquisite items of clothing for them and wove a series of delightfully witty essays around them, giving her readers fascinating insights into Chinese culture, and into the ways in which Chinese clothing and fashion have evolved through the ages. This is a book for all who love literature and teddy bears.

The Drunkard is one of the first full-length stream-of-consciousness novels written in Chinese. It has been called the Hong Kong Novel, and was first published in 1962 as a serial in a Hong Kong evening paper. As the unnamed Narrator, a writer at odds with a philistine world, sinks to his drunken nadir, his plight can be seen to represent that of a whole intelligentsia, a whole culture, degraded by the brutal forces of history: the Second Sino-Japanese War and the rampant capitalism of post-war Hong Kong. The often surrealistic description of the Narrator’s inexorable descent through the seedy bars and night-clubs of Hong Kong, of his numerous encounters with dance-girls and his ever more desperate bouts of drinking, is counterpointed by a series of wide-ranging literary essays, analysing the Chinese classical tradition, the popular culture of China and the West, and the modernist movement in Western and Chinese literature.

This is the first collection of essays in English, contributed by well-known experts of Chinese literature as well as scholars of a younger generation, dedicated to the poetry of Du Fu, commonly regarded as the greatest Chinese poet. These essays are engaged in historically nuanced close reading of Du Fu’s poems, both canonical and less known, from new angles and in various contexts, and discuss a series of critical issues, including the local and the imperial; the body politic and the individual body; poetry and geography; perspectives on the complicated relation of religion and literature; materiality and contemporary reception of Du Fu; poetry and visual art; and tradition and modernity. Many of the poems discussed in this book were written in the backwater town of Kuizhou, far from Du Fu’s earlier residence in the capital city Chang’an, at a time when the Tang dynasty was going through devastating social and political disturbances. The authors contend that Du Fu’s isolation from

Everyday Masculinities in 21st-Century China: The Making of Able-Responsible Men argues that a moral dimension in Chinese masculinity is of growing significance in fast-changing China. ‘Able-responsible men’—those who can create wealth and shoulder responsibilities—have replaced the ‘moneyed elite’ of the earlier reform-and-opening-up era as the dominant male ideal. With vivid and highly readable case studies, Wong presents a compelling account of the forces that coerce men to live up to the able-responsible standard. She demonstrates the impact this pressure has on the lives of not only boys and men, but also on women, and shows how it invites both complicit and resistant reactions. The book lays bare the socio-political context that nurtures the cultural expressions of hegemonic masculinity under the rule of Xi Jinping. The president himself has emerged in public consciousness as the embodiment of the ideal able-responsible man. Based on anthropological fieldwork in Nanchong, Sichu

“Knickerbocker's History of New York” is the book by Washington Irving, an American writer who was born in New York City on April 3, 1783. It is published in December, 1809, with which Washington living, at the age of twenty-six, first won wide credit and influence. Knickerbocker's History of New York is a satire on self-important local history and contemporary politics. Prior to its publication, Irving started a hoax akin to today's viral marketing campaigns; he placed a series of missing person adverts in New York newspapers seeking information on Diedrich Knickerbocker, a crusty Dutch historian who had allegedly gone missing from his hotel in New York City. Today, author Washington Irving is best remembered for the iconic tales "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" and "Rip Van Winkle." However, Irving also produced a number of well-regarded works of history and biography. This brilliant volume combines fact and fiction, offering a satirica

The History of Pendennis: His Fortunes and Misfortunes, His Friends and His Greatest Enemy (1848—1850) is a novel by the English author William Makepeace Thackeray. The novel took two years for him to write. Set in 19th century London, England, this novel features a young English gentleman Arthur Pendennis born in the country who sets out to seek his place in life and society. The novel portrays his love affairs with the callous Blanche Amory and poor Fanny. Both of them marry other people, and Pendennis finally weds Laura Bell, his adopted sister, who had always loved him. The characters include the snobbish social hanger-on Major Pendennis and the tipsy Captain Costigan. Miss Amory and Sir Francis Clavering are somewhat reminiscent of Becky Sharp and Sir Pitt from Vanity Fair. In line with other Thackeray's works, Pendennis offers an insightful and satiric picture of human character and aristocratic society. The masterful characterizations include the snobbish Major Pendennis and the

Chinese Diaspora Charity and the Cantonese Pacific, 1850–1949 sheds new light on the history of charity among Chinese overseas and its place in the history of charity in China and in the wider history of global philanthropy. It finds that diaspora charity, besides serving traditional functions of helping the sick and destitute and supporting development in China, helped to build trust among dispersed hometown networks while challenging color boundaries in host societies by contributing to wider social causes. The book shows that charitable activities among the “Gold Rush” communities of the Pacific rim—a loosely integrated émigré network from Guangdong Province perhaps better known for its business acumen and hard work among English-speaking settler societies in North America and Australasia—also led the way with social innovations that helped to shape modern charity in China. Fitzgerald and Yip’s volume demonstrates that charity lay at the heart of community life among Chinese commu

"In what period did objects of worship appear in China? Could there be a possible convergence between written testimonies and archaeological remains? How was the production of icons understood, especially in light of its eventual condemnation in iconoclastic discourse? This history of cultic images designed for religious worship in China remains to be written. The statue collections over the course of 16th to 20th centuries in central Hunan of southern China will give us insight into the local artistic tradition of statue-making, and the dynamics of multifarious religious practices consisting of a hybrid of Buddhism, Daoism, Confucian, Shamanism, and so forth. The documents contained inside these effigies, as well as the inscriptions found on the statues themselves, provide first-hand information that has not been filtered down through theological or philosophical discourses. Moreover, this art of domestic statuary—which is found far from palaces, large temples, monasteries, and pain

The academic setting has a significant influence on the well-being of children and teens. Effective school leadership is, therefore, essential in promoting a healthy school environment. This book, the first of its kind in Hong Kong, establishes the kind of leadership a health-promoting school needs to be successful. It explains the steps school leaders should take to promote health, beginning with an explanation of the link between health and education and then moving into a discussion of how schools can be transformed and what sort of leaders are required for such a transformation. These changes can be applied in individual classrooms and schools as well as more broadly across whole education systems. The theoretical healthy school framework outlined in the main text by Dr Robin Cheung, a seasoned scholar-practitioner in the field of school health promotion, is complemented by success stories written from interviews conducted by Dr Cheung’s co-authors, which are included in the suppl
