China’s Ministry of Agriculture issued a seasonal fishing ban in parts of the South China Sea, including waters near the Paracel islands claimed by Vietnam but occupied by China. CHINA has staged a fresh display of military might in its western Xinjiang region, sending more than 10,000 armed police, columns of armored vehicles and helicopters rumbling through the regional capital.

  • Introduction to P.B.E.Syllabus™
    INTRODUCTION TO P.B.E.SYLLABUS™ Two decades in the making, the meticulously crafted approach has been evolving and improving since - Play by Ear Syllabus™ (Study of Contemporary Music Improvisation & Aural Techniques) . It is a teaching methodology that was written by an international team of teaching professionals and performing musicians, designed to make the experience of learning music and improvisation easily accessible to all ages, regardless of their experience with music. It helps any student, even a complete novice, to acquire essential musical knowledge and gain the ability to play the instrument in a reasonable span of time, without going through years of traditional or classical training. This is done possible using the modular approach, in which students can choose to learn what they like and apply them to the choices of songs they prefer. Because all students are from various walks of life, P.B.E.S™ ensures that what is learned will only complement and not conflict with previous music training (if any). Above all, the training never disregards the rudiments of music such as proper posture, fingerings and notation reading. It is the fundamental assurance that every student learns only what is deemed correct in the educational system of music. Our courses, in-conjunction with P.B.E.S™, pave the way for anyone to attain their desired musical proficiency – be it as a subject of academic study, for proficiency of performance or for personal enjoyment. The courses available include Pop Piano Improvisation, Jazz Piano Improvisation, Pop Guitar Improvisation, Pop Vocal Improvisation & Pop Piano Junior. Each course comes in 8 levels of difficulty (with the exception of Jazz Piano Improvisation).

  • Introduction
    高科大應用外語學報 第十一期 Introduction In the early 2007, a singing contest was aired in Taiwan. The program, One Million Dollar initiated as a nameless contest with only less than 1% viewing rate. However, it ended in the first season hilariously: contestants were frequently listed in Yahoo as the popular key words for online surfing and the program was also listed as the top ten must-know news. Popularity of One Million Dollar manifests the trend of TV contests is as famous as that in America (Super Idol) and England (Pop Idol or British Got Talent). None the less, the program employed a new strategy in fabricating an idol by website. Take the first season as an example. Audience enjoyed chatting or even arguing in Xuite (an official website of One Million Dollar, Season One). This also formed a sense of communities. In Xuite, the audience were separated gradually by the stars they supported and became fans. With the end of the first season, to pursue a perpetual fandom, these fans built up forums for their stars. This paper, thus, introduced one of the fan forums—Acid YOGA. Acid YOGA is a fan forum for Yoga Lin who found his fame from One Million Dollar in particular as the champion of Season One. The study of this forum lays on the membership—at least most of the active participators are over 20 years old (in fact, the thirty-something occupy the major part) and some of them are even well-educated (which means at least bachelor degree—a period of age which is rarely connected with fandom, or stardom, to be specific).

Her kind arrangement of inviting me to observe their artist's work environment is also of vital importance to gain a first hand look of this industry.
