家园 现在顶多算半死。等死透了咱们再怀念吧。
家园 所言正中要害。其实我很好奇,到底这么缺德会有怎样结局?

目前只看到天网恢恢的部分了。。。

家园 处在泥石流必经之路上的中国小城——霍尔果斯

现成的,刚看到的,不过是在处在泥石流必经之路上的中国小城——霍尔果斯。

感觉引水工程,做起来难度不小。不过还是值得去做。像霍尔果斯这个,口岸已经有8万居民了,搞好了,30万就没问题。

家园 美媒泼脏水回应

自由的美国媒体该站队时可毫不含糊。从扭腰时报到砖家访谈一致拒绝正面迎战,反而热炒小道消息,宣称德国默大妈跟普京会后认为他有妄想狂("out of touch with reality... in another world")。

(NYT) Pressure Rising as Obama Works to Rein In Russia

(Miami Herald) Did Angela Merkel really say Putin was unhinged?

反正就是“独裁法西斯狂人”的那老套路。调子都拉那么高了,可看不到欧美有真正破釜沉舟打热战的狠劲。到时要怎么下台,好好看戏吧。民主就是好,推卸责任特容易,没有任何动力去学习历史教训。

家园 算了

在欧洲委员会就乌克兰局势召开的专题会议结束后,俄外交部发表声明说,俄罗斯绝不接受口头制裁。

在麦坎的幸灾乐祸下,奥巴马已经出离了愤怒,经过长达100小时不屈不挠的抗争,普京终于屈服了。

所以我预计4天后,俄罗斯外交部将会发表声明说:算了,我们接受口头制裁。

Editor's note: Simon Tisdall is assistant editor and foreign affairs columnist of the Guardian. He was previously foreign editor of the Guardian and the Observer and served as White House corespondent and U.S. editor in Washington D.C. The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely his.

(CNN) -- All the self-righteous huffing and puffing in Washington over Ukraine jars on European and especially Russian ears after the multiple U.S.-led invasions and interventions in other people's countries of recent years. It's difficult to say what is more astonishing: the double standards exhibited by the White House, or the apparent total lack of self-awareness of U.S. officials.

Secretary of State John Kerry risked utter ridicule when he declared it unacceptable to invade another country on a "completely trumped-up pretext," or just because you don't like its current leadership. Iraq in 2003 springs instantly to mind. This is exactly what George W. Bush and Tony Blair did when they "trumped up" the supposed threat posed by the hated Saddam Hussein's fabled weapons of mass destruction.

Like Saddam, the Taliban leadership in place in Afghanistan in 2001 was deeply objectionable. But instead of just going after Osama bin Laden and his al Qaeda training camps after the 9/11 attacks, Bush (again abetted by Blair) opted for full-scale regime change. The lamentable consequences of that decision are still being felt 13 years later, not least by Afghan civilians who have been dying in ever greater numbers as the final Nato withdrawal approaches.

U.S. President Barack Obama, a former law professor who should know better, has charged Vladimir Putin, his Russian counterpart, with violating Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity, in breach of international law.

But it is Obama, following in Bush's footsteps, who has repeatedly and cynically flouted international law by launching or backing myriad armed attacks on foreign soil, in Libya, Somalia, Yemen and Pakistan to name a few, without U.N. security council authorization. It is Obama's administration which continues to undermine international law by refusing to join or recognize the International Criminal Court, the most important instrument of international justice to have been developed since 1945.

And it is Obama's State Department, principally in the person of Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland, that fatally overplayed its hand in the run-up to last month's second Ukraine revolution. Nuland's infamous "f**k the EU" comment revealed the extent to which Washington was recklessly maneuvering to undermine Ukraine's elected pro-Russian president, Viktor Yanukovych, by backing the Kiev street protesters' demands.

The EU had wanted to take things more gradually, for fear of provoking the very Russian reaction to which the U.S. now so strongly objects. When the foreign ministers of Germany, France and Poland, acting for the EU, negotiated a compromise agreement on February 22 that envisaged early elections, the crisis appeared to have been defused. Russia did not like the deal, but seemed ready to go along.

But within 24 hours, the opposition had torn up the agreement. It forced Yanukovych from power and sacked the government. To alarm in Moscow, where nightmarish World War II memories linger, Ukrainian neo-fascists were among those who seized control. They are now part of the new government in Kiev.

The U.S. almost immediately gave its blessing to what the Kremlin later described as a "coup d'etat" while the EU, knowing this was what Washington wanted, just looked on. Little wonder the Russians were furious at what they saw as a western double cross.

Obama, Putin talk Ukraine crisis

Ukraine's PM defiant and passionate

Clinton compares Russia to Nazi Germany

Sergei Lavrov, the Russian Foreign Minister, reflected these worries when he voiced "most serious concern" over Ukraine in phone calls to the French, German and Polish foreign ministers. "The opposition not only has failed to fulfil a single one of its obligations but is already presenting new demands all the time, following the lead of armed extremists and pogromists whose actions pose a direct threat to Ukraine's sovereignty and constitutional order,'' Lavrov said. But it was already too late.

Obama and Kerry seem to have calmed down a little since the crisis first broke. The self-righteous hyperbole about international rights is less evident, though it has not disappeared entirely. Obama has heard the many voices in the U.S. and beyond terming this the worst east-west crisis since the end of the Cold War -- and as the biggest foreign test of his presidency.

So now he's doing what he does best: talking. In his latest phone call to Putin, on Thursday this week, Obama put forward a plan to resolve the stand-off diplomatically. It includes direct talks between Moscow and Kiev, the return of Russian troops to their bases, and the deployment of international observers to ensure the rights of all ethnic groups, including Crimean Russians, are respected.

But don't hold your breath. Putin is in no hurry to back off or back down.

He has his tail up after a fortnight in which he exposed the hypocrisy and hollowness of much of western policy and politicians. His behavior, especially in Crimea, has been dangerous, wrong-headed and irresponsible in the extreme. In many ways, Putin is an unredeemed Cold War throwback. He is definitely not the sort of chap one would invite round for dinner, as a former British diplomat commented. The crisis could still explode in his and everyone else's face. But it was not unprovoked.

And the Russian leader has an eye for precedent. Similar battles over so-called "frozen conflicts" and the rights of isolated ethnic groups loom elsewhere on Russia's periphery, in Georgia, Moldova, Armenia, Nagorno-Karabakh, and maybe Belarus and the Baltic states too. Putin is putting down a marker, even as he plays Obama and Kerry for fools.

Whatever they think in Washington, and whatever the financial markets say, it's working for him personally. Latest opinion polls in Russia show Putin's popularity soaring. One of these days western leaders will drop the pious cant, learn to stop under-estimating him, and recognize Russia's leader-for-life as the canny, very dangerous, utterly unscrupulous opponent he is.

家园 如果引贝湖水

输水管怎么走?

我们提过两个路线,一个是纵贯蒙古国南下,抄近路;一个是与西伯利亚大铁路平行,向东引到海拉尔。

如果蒙古阻挠,而中俄又打算马上上马的话,第二个路线虽然绕,也是值得考虑的。

一,没有涉及蒙古,可以迅速开工。而且蒙古北方的地形也比较复杂。

二,西伯利亚铁路的路线,是100年前精心选择的,地质勘察原始数据都在,容易推导未来地质沉降状况,毕竟管道要用几十年的。

三,中俄的经济联系,可能越来越紧密,俄国需要更大的铁路运能和管道运能。新铺输水管的话,既可以利用现有铁路的运能来运送人员建材来铺管道,反过来也能整修大铁路。西伯利亚铁路病害率超过50%,严重失修,必须要一个由头来整治一下,修一段是一段。

四,沿途冬季严寒,怎么用管道运送水,原油,天然气?给管道加温加压?因为都是运送流体,这3个的解决方案可能是类似的,3种管道密集排列,有利于集约管理,轮流供暖。

五,沿铁路线走,将来容易维护和保护管道。

家园 有一句话叫做“出来混,都是要还的”

我认为,这才是真正的道理。古今中外,莫不如是。

慢慢看吧。

家园 西方人从生到死享受了所有可能享受的优势和利益,已经很多代

从个人层面看,没有还的人数非常多。

家园 中国当然应该支持俄吞并。那样美国的回归亚洲战略

就得好好掂量掂量了。

家园 911的本质

美国不是给人打了,美国是给人耍了。

如今想倒是想明白了,怎么好意思承认?所以邯郸学步,把这招用到中国来了。万幸还是在内地,如果是北上广的国际机场,再伤几个国际友人,那西方各国指不定怎么乐呢。

家园 才区区两百多年。

人类历史长着呢!

从几千年的历史看,没有不还的。

家园 唐之后,就没有什么精英了,所谓的精英都是屌丝,所以才装斯

唐之后,就没有什么精英了,所谓的精英都是屌丝,所以才装斯文,你看唐之前的中国精英,无耻,热血,实干,没有便宜,绝对不会出手的。

家园 本大说的好,中华文明的底层相对于

其他国家实在是太优秀啦,勤劳,(有智慧的)勇敢,节俭这三点品质很难在西方和中东民众身上找到,以下是西方人眼中不可思议的中国农民发家史

陈阿春的外貌没有什么特别出众之处。

他和一般中国人一样相当矮小,有着中国式的窄肩膀和瘦削身材。

一般的游客偶然在火奴鲁鲁的街上瞥见他,会推断他是个个性温和的小个子中国人,很可能经营着一家生意兴隆的洗衣房或裁缝铺。

说到他温和又富有,这种看法倒没错,尽管并不够标准,因为阿春的好性情与他的富有程度一样,至于他有多富裕却并没有人知道一星半点的详情。

众所周知他非常有钱,但是谈到他的财产时,人们只是用“非常”来象征一个未知的数目。

阿春有着一双精明的小眼睛,又黑又亮,而且小得就像一个钻孔一般。

但是他的两只眼睛分得很开,躲在额头之下,那显然是一位思想家的额头。

因为阿春有他自己的麻烦,而且这麻烦一生都伴随着他。

但并不是说他一直都在为这些麻烦烦恼。

本质上他是一位哲学家,不管身为苦力、亿万富翁还是掌管很多工人的老板,他的灵魂一直都平静泰然。

他总是生活在一种高度的平和之中,内心镇静从容,不因好运而踌躇不前,不因厄运而心烦意乱。

他能很好地适应一切事情,不管是甘蔗地里监工的殴打,还是他自己经营甘蔗地时蔗糖价格突然暴跌。

因此,从他那种坚若磐石的自信和满足中可以看出,他精于解决难题,很少有人会遇到并思考这些难题,更别提一个中国农民了。

他正是那样的——一个中国农民,生来就得像牲口一样整日在地里劳作,但注定会像童话中的王子一样逃脱这种命运。

阿春对他的父亲没有什么记忆,只知道他是离广东不愿的一个地方的一个小农民;他也不怎么记得自己的母亲,因为她在他六岁时就过世了。

但他却记得她那位受人尊敬的伯父——阿高,因为从六岁道二十四岁,阿春一直在给他当奴隶。

就在二十四岁那年,他卖身为苦力逃走了,要去夏威夷的甘蔗种植园里做三年苦工,每天只有五十美分钱。

阿春很善于观察。

即使是千里挑一的人物也不曾注意到的小细节,他都能觉察到。

他在甘蔗地里干了三年,到了最后他对甘蔗种植的了解比监工、甚至总管都要多,而且这个枯瘦矮小的苦力所掌握的关于磨坊里还原过程的知识,也一定会让总管目瞪口呆。

但阿春不仅学习了制糖工艺。

他还研究过别人是如何成为制糖厂主和种植园主的。

他很早就得出过一个判断,即人是无法通过自己双手的劳动致富的。

他明白这个道理,是因为他自己已经苦干了二十年。

那些变得富有的人之所以能够致富,都是因为别人双手的劳动。

谁拥有最多的人为他苦干,谁就是最富有的。

所以,苦力合同到期后,阿春就用自己的积蓄投资了一家小型进口商店,同一个叫阿杨的人合伙。

这家公司最终发展成为伟大的“阿春和阿杨”公司,经营项目从印度丝绸、人参道鸟粪岛和贩运黑奴用的双桅横帆船无所不包。

同时,阿春还受雇做了厨师。

他是位好厨师,三年之内他就成为了火奴鲁鲁薪酬最高的主厨。

他的工作稳定,就像他的老板丹廷说的那样,他要放弃这个工作简直就是个傻瓜。但阿春最了解自己的想法,虽然知道自己会被称作一个大傻瓜,知道在应得的工资之外老板还会送他50美元,他还是放弃了这份工作。

阿春和阿杨的公司蒸蒸日上。

阿春再也没有必要做一个厨师了。

那时正是夏威夷兴盛繁荣的时期。

甘蔗广泛种植,需要大量劳工。

阿春发现了这个机会,于是投身到劳工输入行业。

他把数以千计的广东苦力引进夏威夷,他的财富开始增长。

他还进行投资。

别人看来要破产的领域,在他又亮又黑的小眼睛里却是笔笔生意。

他低价买进了一片鱼塘,后来获得了五倍的收益,以此为契机,他垄断了火奴鲁鲁的整个鱼市。

他不在刊物上发表谈论,不投身政治,也不参加革命,但他对于事态的预测比那些策划这些时间的人更清晰、更长远。

当火奴鲁鲁在上升的珊瑚岩形成的一片贫瘠的沙洲之上,布局零散,凌乱不堪,饱受沙尘袭击之时,他就已经在脑海中预见到它会成为一个现代化、由电力点亮的城市。

所以他开始买进土地。

他从需要现金的商人、一贫如洗的当地人、放荡的商人之子、寡妇故而以及被驱逐道莫洛凯岛的麻风病人手里买进土地;然而,不知怎的,他买的那些土地若干年后证明正符合仓库、咖啡厅或是旅馆的需要。

他的土地租入租出,卖出买进,然后再卖出。

但他还进行了别的投资。

他信赖地将钱投在了一个没人会信任的叛逆的船长帕金森身上。

帕金森扬帆远航,开始去往了维加小岛的神秘之旅。

帕金森直到去世都被照顾得很好,数年之后,有消息走露说德雷克和阿科伦鸟粪岛已经以75万的价格卖给了英国磷酸盐信托机构,这让火奴鲁鲁岛的人们惊讶不已。

然后在卡拉卡瓦国王所统治的富足奢华的时期,阿春花了30万美元换得了鸦片经营许可证。

如果他花33万买断这种毒品的专营权,这项投资仍然很划算,因为获得的效益使他买下了卡拉劳种植园,这个种植园反过来又在17年间每年盈利30%,最后被他以150万的价钱售出。

但是我要遗憾地说中华精英文化本质上没有比这种平民文化高明多少,除了几幅字画几句外语几件名牌衣物几张外国大学文凭以外的装饰品,他们缺乏真正的为国为民献身服务的高贵品质,满口仁义道德其本质是权利等级化又特别容易做伪君子的儒家文化长期在中国中华文明实行,导致中华上层精英缺乏一种探索未知开发技术提升全民生活品质的勇气和毅力,使得中华文明想挪动一张桌子都难(鲁迅)。

中华文明要想再次问鼎天下,必须要建立起一种崭新的精英文化,并以此吸引同化大量别国知识分子,不然靠儒家一切都是华丽春梦罢了。
