I present a case study on a financially troubled, partially complete village reconstruc- tion project in Shandong. Villagers outside the leadership were minimally involved in project planning, and the village leadership put pressure on villagers to move. How- ever, the pressure to move was not due to an absence of formal property rights for villagers; reluctant villagers agreed to move because they could not afford to offend the village government.

  • The Globalization of Chinese Food ANTHROPOLOGY of ASIA SERIES Series Editor: Grant Evans, University Ofhong Kong
    The Globalization of Chinese Food ANTHROPOLOGY OF ASIA SERIES Series Editor: Grant Evans, University ofHong Kong Asia today is one ofthe most dynamic regions ofthe world. The previously predominant image of 'timeless peasants' has given way to the image of fast-paced business people, mass consumerism and high-rise urban conglomerations. Yet much discourse remains entrenched in the polarities of 'East vs. West', 'Tradition vs. Change'. This series hopes to provide a forum for anthropological studies which break with such polarities. It will publish titles dealing with cosmopolitanism, cultural identity, representa­ tions, arts and performance. The complexities of urban Asia, its elites, its political rituals, and its families will also be explored.

A Bountiful Feast at Jade Restaurant Executive Chef of Jade Restaurant Leong Chee Yeng says, “A symbol of strength and dedication, the mighty yet humble ox traditionally plays an essential role in reaping a bountiful harvest.

  • © 2020 Xiaoman Pan CROSS-LINGUAL ENTITY EXTRACTION and LINKING for 300 LANGUAGES
    © 2020 Xiaoman Pan CROSS-LINGUAL ENTITY EXTRACTION AND LINKING FOR 300 LANGUAGES BY XIAOMAN PAN DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Computer Science in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2020 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Dr. Heng Ji, Chair Dr. Jiawei Han Dr. Hanghang Tong Dr. Kevin Knight ABSTRACT Information provided in languages which people can understand saves lives in crises. For example, language barrier was one of the main difficulties faced by humanitarian workers responding to the Ebola crisis in 2014. We propose to break language barriers by extracting information (e.g., entities) from a massive variety of languages and ground the information into an existing Knowledge Base (KB) which is accessible to a user in their own language (e.g., a reporter from the World Health Organization who speaks English only). The ambitious goal of this thesis is to develop a Cross-lingual Entity Extraction and Linking framework for 1,000 fine-grained entity types and 300 languages that exist in Wikipedia. Given a document in any of these languages, our framework is able to identify entity name mentions, assign a fine-grained type to each mention, and link it to an English KB if it is linkable. Traditional entity linking methods rely on costly human annotated data to train supervised learning-to-rank models to select the best candidate entity for each mention. In contrast, we propose a novel unsupervised represent-and-compare approach that can accurately capture the semantic meaning representation of each mention, and directly compare its representation with the representation of each candidate entity in the target KB.

  • Microbial Community Diversity of Traditional Dough Starter (Jiaozi) from Two Provinces in Northwest China
    Liu et al. Annals of Microbiology (2020) 70:18 Annals of Microbiology https://doi.org/10.1186/s13213-020-01544-1 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Open Access Microbial community diversity of traditional dough starter (Jiaozi) from two provinces in northwest China Ting Liu, Jiamu Kang, Liu Liu*, Xinzhong Hu*, Xiaolong Wang, Xiaoping Li, Zhen Ma and Tian Ren Abstract Purpose: Microbial community composition is crucial for the flavor and quality of fermented foods. However, the microbiota of Chinese traditional dough starter (Jiaozi) from different origins has scarcely been studied. The aim of this study was to determine the composition of bacterial and fungal communities in six Jiaozi collected from two provinces in northwest China. Methods: Our study determined the composition of bacterial and fungal communities in six Jiaozi through Illumina MiSeq sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene and the ITS regions. Result: A total of 234 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) for bacteria and 490 OTUs for fungi were identified. Furthermore, Lactobacillus, Weissella, Acetobacter, Sphingomonas, and Serratia were identified as the predominant bacterial genera in Jiaozi samples, while Saccharomyces, Candida, Alternaria, unclassified Filobasidiales, and Mycosphaerella were the most abundant fungal genera. The results revealed that the six samples could be grouped into two groups based on their province of origin. In the results of PCA and HCA analysis, the first three principal components which were chosen could explain 99.93% and 90.99% of the total bacterial and fungal communities, respectively. Conclusion: The results indicated high levels of bacteria and fungi in traditional Jiaozi and highlighted the possible influence of geographic areas on microbial diversity.

    Topic: The History and Diversity of Bread Around the World Target Grade Level: 11 Subject Area: Home Economics: Foods & Nutrition Planning Framework: Romantic Unit Length: 2 -3 weeks Author: Marianne Honeywell Romantic Framework 1. Identifying “heroic” qualities: Main heroic quality: Diversity There are thousands of different kinds of bread eaten by almost every culture around the world. Adaptability In each region of the world, bread has traditionally been made from the grains native to that area. Alternative(s): Life Giving Bread and grain products provide our bodies with an important source of energy and carbohydrates. They comprise the largest part of most of the world’s food source. Ingenuity The simple, yet complex process of making a loaf of bread Images that capture the heroic qualities: Bread is eaten all over the world by almost every culture. If we traveled to the other side of the planet we would probably find a culture very different from our own, yet with its own version of bread. The diversity of this staple food is endless and every culture prides itself in having its own unique kind of bread. If we went on an international culinary bread tour, we could eat baguettes from France, focaccia from Italy, soda bread in Ireland, naan and roti from India, dark rye bread in Russia, tortillas in Mexico, pandesal in the Philippines, bannock from North America, or mantou in China (“Bread”, 2010). Almost any variety of grain can be turned into bread, which makes it one of the most diverse foods in the human diet. Breads are formed into endless varieties, shapes, and sizes; with many different flavours and textures.
