  • Only Two Percent of Women Describe Themselves As Beautiful New Global Study Uncovers Desire for Broader Definition of Beauty NEW YORK, Sept
    (http://www.prnewswire.com/) Only Two Percent of Women Describe Themselves as Beautiful New Global Study Uncovers Desire for Broader Definition of Beauty NEW YORK, Sept. 29 /PRNewswire/ ‐‐ Dove(R) unveils a groundbreaking new study today that discusses the implications of a global society that narrowly defines beauty by the images seen in entertainment, advertising and fashion runways and the startling impact this has on women. The result: only two percent of thousands of women from 10 countries around the world consider themselves beautiful. Does this mean that we live in a world where women are not beautiful or does it mean that women around the world are calling for a broader definition of beauty? Dove, as a global beauty brand and responsible marketer, wants to investigate these issues and understand women's views on beauty. With these concerns in mind, Dove partnered with Dr. Nancy Etcoff, Harvard University professor and author of "Survival of the Prettiest," and Dr. Susie Orbach, London School of Economics, visiting professor and author of "Fat is a Feminist Issue," to develop The Real Truth About Beauty: A Global Report, which explores the relationship women have with beauty. Specifically, Dove's mission is to determine how women define beauty; their level of satisfaction with their own beauty; and its impact on their sense of well‐being. "The Real Truth About Beauty: A Global Report makes it clear that it is time to lift the quota system on images of beauty," says Etcoff. "This study uncovers that beauty is never going away and has enormous power.

  • Constructing a Native Consciousness: Taiwan Literature in the 20Th Century
    Constructing a Native Consciousness: Taiwan Literature in the 20th Century Angelina C. Yee Few notions in the contemporary world elicit such public demonstration and widespread passion as that of the nation. Even at the end of the 20th century, national conflagrations from Kosovo to East Timor still seize headlines from global treaties and space explorations. While scholars argue that the nation is intersubjectively imagined, discursively produced, and “narrated” and “performed” out of shreds and fragments, the notion, far from being an outmoded concept, shows every sign of gathering strength, intertwined with and supplanting deep-seated religious beliefs and social progress as a sanctified norm.1 Between the local, the national and the supranational whose demarcations are themselves contested, various discursive strands intersect and dispute, vying to redraw maps or rewrite histories. The terrifying devastation allegiance to different nations can unleash therefore weighs heavily on a retrospective on Taiwan, in a double bind of dispassion and engagement. The subject is a particularly sensitive one, for the very invocation of the name “Taiwan,” depending on its context, manner and intonation, implicates particular ideological stances. For those living in Taiwan and across the Strait, the name is more than a geopolitical construct; it is a transcendental signifier fraught with emotional meaning. In literature and the arts, the relatively brief history of representing Taiwan’s trials and tribulations has already as- sumed mythical proportions, evoking a landscape of sorrow, subjugation and destitution. To many, the people of Taiwan have long been subjected to a succession of colonizers’ myths that deny their existence and obliterate their local histories in subservience to grand national narratives.

The delicate dance of light and color on a canvas. The marriage of music and words on a stage. The synchronization of stem and petal on a rose. At DuPont, we also see beauty in the way components interact in the automobile. Indeed, it is art as much as science. We have applied this rather visionary approach to our repertoire of more than 100 automotive product lines. Each is designed and integrated to maximize overall system performance. And at the same time, reduce total cost. We call it a "complete systems" approach ...seeing the possibilities that exist when all the pieces work together. And helping our customers realize them.

In fact, you have just to run your hand over the perfectly matched grain of the 53’s woodwork, or take in the graceful arch of its swept flybridge, or immerse yourself in a space so thoroughly considered to know it’s all true.

  • Shiseido to Exhibit Corporate Culture in Greece and Switzerland to Mark the 140Th Anniversary of the Company’S Founding
    [Reference] Shiseido to Exhibit Corporate Culture in Greece and Switzerland to Mark the 140th Anniversary of the Company’s Founding To mark the 140th anniversary of its founding in 1872, Shiseido will hold a series of exhibitions introducing its corporate culture in Greece and Switzerland through displays of successive generations of Shiseido products, advertising posters, designs and other items. The events are intended to enhance Shiseido’s brand image and boost recognition in the two countries where Shiseido’s overseas subsidiaries recently started sales. The exhibitions will introduce key milestones over the course of Shiseido’s 140-year history, contrasting Japanese women’s sense of beauty and cosmetics culture over the generations as a leading Japanese cosmetics brand with its ongoing efforts in state-of-the-art dermatology research. (admission free) Shiseido Hellas S.A. (Athens, Greece) will stage exhibitions in two phases from April 2 to 28 in luxury shopping mall and another location, tying in Shiseido’s corporate culture with storefront initiatives. Shiseido S.A. (Geneva, Switzerland) will become the first Japanese company to hold an exhibition in VIP lounge space provided by Swiss bank UBS, which is headquartered in Geneva, from May 4 to July 6, 2012. Initiatives in Overseas Business Shiseido is currently promoting its Three-Year Plan (April 2011 - March 2014) based on the theme of “getting into a growth trajectory” with the aim of becoming a “global player representing Asia with its origins in Japan.” Accordingly, the Company is focusing on accelerating globalization while also vitalizing its domestic business.

  • A STUDY of TAIWAN's NATIVIST LITERATURE by YU-LIN
    WRITING TAIWAN: A STUDY OF TAIWAN’S NATIVIST LITERATURE by YU-LIN LEE Under the Direction of Dezsö Benedek ABSTRACT Taiwan’s nativist literature, known as Taiwan hsiang-t’u literature, originated in the Japanese occupation when Taiwanese native authors strived to establish a “national” literature distinct from Japanese and Chinese literatures. Drawing on recent colonial/postcolonial theory, this project aims to investigate the process of writing in which the native tongue profoundly undermined the privileged status of the colonizer’s language and through which natives could articulate their colonial existence. It argues that the new conception of Taiwanese writing produced a new literature where the cultural “otherness” was traversed by the language and literature of the colonized. Concurrently, the practice of Taiwanese writing as a means of resistance to the writing of the colonizer constructed a new paradigm for Taiwanese “national” identity. The analysis is organized in three parts. The first part (chapters 1, 2, 3) raises central questions about the postcolonial studies of Taiwan in the context of colonialism. It provides a historical review of Taiwan’s colonized experiences. This historical review not only serves as an account of the rise of nativism in modern Taiwan, but it also constructs a different historical discourse from that rendered by the colonizers. The second part (chapters 4, 5, 6) presents the debates on nativist literature in modern Taiwan’s literary history in order to demonstrate how the nativist discourse was formatted and manipulated in a particular sociopolitical climate. The debates, based on the historical context, can be divided into three phases: 1) the Japanese occupation when natives were striving to legitimatize nativist literature; 2) the KMT rule when nativist discourse was primarily articulated as opposed to colonialism; and 3) the post-colonial period when nativist writing has tended to be recognized as a “national” literature.
