Given the large number and complexity of environmental chemicals or pollutants, the current scientific approaches for assessment of the environmental pollution status using chemical analysis of air, water, soil, and other environmental samples alone may not offer meaningful assessment of the pollution status of a particular ecosystem and the risk of the pollution to human health. Complex environmental pollution problems can not be solved either by modern environmental engi- neering or technology alone. Integration of a variety of environmental sciences including basic environmental re- search, environmental engineering, ecology, and management on social and economic activities will provide effective solutions to complex environmental problems. My presentation will provide an overview of environmental pollution from an environmental health perspective. Key environmental technologies and approaches will be described, and examples of the application of these technologies and methods to understanding adverse health effects of environ- mental chemical exposures will be presented. Opportunities for future studies of environmental health and disease will also be discussed. EPPH 2010 3 Conference Guide Plenary Speech: The Need for Innovation in Environmental Toxicology Speaker: Prof. Michael C Newman, Virginia Institute of Marine Science, USA Time: 09:45-10:30, June 22, 2010 Location: Grand Ballroom ABC, 3rd floor, Crowne Plaza Chengdu Abstract: The maturation of environmental toxicology as a science requires an insightful balance of in- novation and retention of sound concepts upon which regulations are based. This talk highlights the increasingly ur- gent need to re-examine some existing ideas and methods while carefully preserving the regulatory and risk assess- ment frameworks built upon them. Environmental toxicology will be examined in a general context, suggesting how best to decide what does or does not need changing, and how to best implement change. Then two examples will be discussed to illustrate difficulties that can only be resolved by innovation. Plenary Speech: TBD Speaker: Prof. Paolo F.

This article traces the essence of the tourist souvenir design, explaining the core of its value, the essence of local culture, and emphasizing the law of souvenir market value that maintains the uniqueness of local culture to attract purchases. By analysing the current situation of design homogeneity and lack of innovation in Chinese market, it proposes an innovative idea, “Back to Design Origins”. Then taking Nanjing souvenir design as an example, it introduces two innovative approaches, "Discovery and Application of New Cultural Elements" and " Cute Stylization of Traditional Symbols". In the end, it summarizes several feasible rules on element selection, symbolic method application, and carrier selection, mainly based on the thought of “Back to Design Origins”. 1 The essence of the tourist souvenir 2 The situation of Chinese souvenir design market Local traditional culture is an overall representation of Nowadays, although the tourist souvenir markets in the evolution and integration of a local civilization that various places have greatly increased in scale with the reflects the characteristics of the region and incorporates development of society, the quality and innovation of various ideological cultures and ideologies of local souvenirs have not improved simultaneously. Take history [1]. Tourist souvenirs can best reflect the most Beijing as an example. In 2009, 187 scenic spots in fundamental cultural characteristics of a resort or a city, Beijing received more than 150 million tourists, a year- showing particularity and irreplaceability.

The Department comprises about forty faculty members and language instructors and offers a major, while the Program supports faculty and students working on East Asia in both the East Asian Studies Department and other departments. In 2016-17 the nearly forty undergraduates enrolled in East Asian Studies pursued many interests, combining breadth of study with a solid foundation in the languages of East Asia. The eleven majors in the East Asian Studies Department worked in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean languages and wrote theses covering political history, transnational cinema, trauma and narrative, economics, ethnicity and colonialism, literature and translation, educational inequality, and the politics of space exploration. Twenty-six majors in other departments who completed certificates in East Asian Studies (one offered by the Department and one by the Program) submitted independent work that ranged even more widely.

  • Research on Bicycle Network Planning of Nanjing in China
    Examensarbete i Hållbar Utveckling 22 Research on Bicycle Network Planning of Nanjing in China Ying Liang INSTITUTIONEN FÖR GEOVETENSKAPER RESEARCH ON BICYCLE NETWORK PLANNING OF NANJING IN CHINA YING LIANG UPPSALA UNIVERSITY SUPERRIVSED BY PER G BERG SWEDISH UNIVERSITY OF AGRICLTRUE SCIENCE (SLU) UPPSALA UNIVERSITY SPRING 2011 ii Abstract Although china has a huge cyclist population, the cycling condition in large cities is undesirable. The problem is mainly caused by the mixed-flow of cyclists and motorist on the road. Separation of cyclists and motorist is the key to solve the problem. Based on the research of the successful examples in Europe and a PEBOSCA inventory analysis of the cycling traffic in Nanjing, a set of suggestion is proposed on how to plan the bicycle network. A bicycle network separated from motor traffic and the planning on a cycling district division is introduced. The proposal also involves the suggestion on combination between cycling and public transport, and the experience route of historical culture and the natural beauty of the landscape. Keywords: Bicycle network planning, specific bicycle lane, urban transportation, PEBOSCA, Nanjing, China.

    VOLUME #2 / ISSUE #2 / NOVEMBER - DECEMBER 2011 南京权安 广告 苏印证: 20100046 China’s relationship with the outdoors has come full circle. Going back 15 or more years, Chinese city dwellers had vitually choice to embrace the outdoor life; their urban areas being little more than large concen- trations of primitive housing blocks. If you wanted anything, other than sleep, outside was where it could be had. Enter the glitzy shopping mall and suddenly China’s semi nouveau riche were turning their nose up at the countryside, consuming in the process vast quantities of skin whitener for fear they look like a farmer, or lest someone who works outdoors. Happily this view has faded (at least among ultra-modern In the Fresh urbanites such as Nanjingers), revealing a renewed desire to recon- 自驾游,听起来如何?你并不是唯一的一个,越来越多 nect with mother nature.

In this paper we study the periodic gravitational wave (GW) form, its polarizations, the response function, the Fourier transform, and the energy loss rate of a triple system through three different channels of radiation, the scalar, vector, and tensor modes, in the Einstein-aether theory of gravity. The theory violates locally the Lorentz symmetry, and yet satisfies all the theoretical and observational constraints by properly choosing its four coupling constants ci’s.

  • Old Teachings, New Marketing Strategies, and Hollywood's Industry
    Master’s Degree in European, American and Postcolonial Language and Literature Final Thesis Old Teachings, New Marketing Strategies, and Hollywood’s Industry: The Cultural Conflicts between the U.S. and China Supervisor Simone Francescato Assistant supervisor Marco Perusi Savorelli Graduand Zeno Casti 845026 Academic Year 2018 / 2019 Abstract This study aims at identifying the analogies and differences between American culture and Chinese culture stemming from marketing strategies and their adaptation. It shows in particular that some Chinese literary masterpieces, including Sun Tzu’s The Art of War, can be considered as starting point and as inspiration for American financial strategy, business attitude and general approach to the American mentality and lifestyle. The objective of this research is to explain how the teachings contained in such works represent the cornerstones that inspired American successful entrepreneurial spirit and why they are considered now the key for American marketing approach to China and its enigmatic culture, especially through the translation of brands into Chinese language. The study then investigates the economic factors and cultural influences that China exercised over U.S. Film Industry, by focusing on the economic and cultural reasons why Hollywood decided, or rather, was forced to accept financing from China in order to expand (and save) their Film Industry and why Chinese film production companies chose to invest in this business to learn the know-how needed to produce successful films in China.
