INTRODbCTION The legal development of Taiwan' in the twentieth century reflects the complex legacy of "one land with two national flags." A government imposed by Japan ruled Taiwan for the first half of the twentieth century (1895-1945), followed by a government originating in China (the Chinese mainland) in the second half of the century (1945-2000). The people who came from Japan or Republican China became the leading class in Taiwan. Accordingly, these two regimes were regarded by the native inhabitants as foreign rulers.2 Taiwan's legal institutions underwent a radical change on the eve of the twentieth century.

    Coaches FC Barcelona v Manchester United FC: Josep Guardiola v Sir Alex Ferguson for the second time in three seasons. Prior to kick-off at Wembley, ‘Pep’ greets the coach he admires most in a meeting between two coaches with exceptionally high averages in the UEFA Champions League. All-time leader Sir Alex was bringing his total to 176 games in 16 seasons, yet even he was falling marginally short of Pep’s tally of 38 matches in only three campaigns.

A hepatic checklist of the province com- prising 225 species (excluding one nom. nud. and a doubtful species) belonging to 58 gen- era and 32 families is provided based on all published literature and our recent studies of specimens, including a field collection from Shangsi County in southwestern Guangxi. The largest family is Lejeuneaceae, with 58 species in 15 genera. The genera with over 10 species are Cololejeunea (22 spp., excluding one nom. nud.), Frullania (22 spp.), Plagiochila (21 spp., excluding a doubtful species), Radula (14 spp.), Bazzania (13 spp.) and Jungermannia (11 spp.). Twenty-four species are new records for this province. Thirty species are added to the epiphyllous flora of the province and a total of 38 species of epiphyllous liverworts are known from this province. Cheilolejeunea khasiana (Mitt.) N.Kitag. and Leucolejeunea turgida (Mitt.) Verd. are newly reported as an epiphyllous record. An intensive field search reveals Cheilolejeunea gaoi R.L.Zhu et al., a liverwort endemic to Guangxi, is extremely rare and the continued existence of the species may be threatened.

This research applies Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) and Social Capital Theory (SCT) to determine the factors associated with Malaysian academic's KS intention in HLIs. The results indicate that social networking is an important factor of academics’ attitude to KS, while commitment and trust do not influence their attitude to KS.

  • Nasa Johnson Space Center Oral History Project Oral History Transcript
    NASA JOHNSON SPACE CENTER ORAL HISTORY PROJECT ORAL HISTORY TRANSCRIPT FREDERICK D. GREGORY INTERVIEWED BY REBECCA WRIGHT WASHINGTON, D.C. – 29 APRIL 2004 th WRIGHT: Today is April 29 , 2004. This oral history is being conducted with Fred Gregory for the NASA Johnson Space Center Oral History Project. Interviewer is Rebecca Wright. Mr. Gregory currently serves as NASA’s Deputy Administrator, and we are talking today in his office at NASA Headquarters in Washington, D.C., about his first days with the agency and those days that led up to selection as an astronaut. Thank you again. We appreciate you taking time from your schedule to visit with us. We’d like to start by you sharing with us how your interest in aviation began. GREGORY: I think it was because my dad, who was an educator, but he was also an engineer, very early in my life exposed me to areas that I’m sure that he would have liked to have participated in as a kid. So I think that when he took me to see things and visit and touch, I think he was actually taking himself. One of the places we always went was to an Air Force base nearby Washington, D.C. It was Andrews Air Force Base [Maryland], and as a kid, I can always remember him taking me there. If I sit and think, I can’t remember exactly why, but we were always near it. As an example, in the late forties or early fifties, they had sports car racing at Andrews.

  • Low Vowel Raising in Sinitic Languages: Assimilation, Reduction, Or Both?*
    LANGUAGE AND LINGUISTICS 13.4:583-623, 2012 2012-0-013-004-000279-1 Low Vowel Raising in Sinitic Languages: * Assimilation, Reduction, or Both? Feng-fan Hsieh National Tsing Hua University Many Sinitic languages respect low vowel raising (LVR) whereby the low vowel /a/ is raised to /e/ only when flanked by a palatal glide and a coronal coda. In this article, I show that LVR in Sinitic languages is a genuine process of grammar because low-level phonetic coarticulatory effects alone cannot account for cross- linguistic/dialectal variation. Specifically, my survey reveals that vowel duration, onset consonants and/or the presence of retroflexes may have a direct bearing on LVR, thus calling for a phonological analysis. I argue that the phenomenon in question is better treated as additive effects of (i) target undershoot in the wake of impoverished vowel duration (i.e. vowel reduction) and (ii) contextual influences (i.e. backness assimilation). Phonological vowel quality change (LVR here) is motivated only when the benefit of contextual neutralization exceeds that of the sum of the “cost” of implementing the above coarticulatory patterns. Analytically, Flemming’s (2003) feature co-occurrence constraints, together with phonetically driven constraints, provide a straightforward account of the relationship between coronal place and vowel backness attested in LVR. Finally, implications for Mandarin segmental phonology are also discussed. Key words: vowel raising, vowel reduction, assimilation, segmental phonology, Sinitic languages 1.
