    Qu'est-ce qu'une photographe doit utiliser pour communiquer avec l'objet photographié? Quel moyen utilise-t-elle pour interpréter l'objet de sa photographie? La lumière est le parfait compagnon et le serviteur de la photographe. S'il y a plus de lumière qui apparaît du côté droit, cela peut rendre la photo plus vivante, de ce fait, la photographe se déplace vers la gauche et appuie sur le déclencheur. Ainsi, elle enregistre le caractère mystérieux de l'objet photographique et révéle un moment qui est à présent entré dans la légende. Ma passion pour la photographie vient peut-être de ma curiosité pour tout ce qui est mystérieux.Comment la lumière du soleil agit sur la terre, fine et lisse, atrocement, qui tombe sans la moindre réserve. Je suis profondément émue parce qu'il y a une certaine émotion tactile quand l'on prend une photo. Je réserve un peu de temps. La photographe. ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ What does the photographer use to communicate with the object being photographed? How does the photographer interpret the object? Light was always the photographer's best companion and servant. More light shining in from the right will give the view more life, so I shift my standing point to the left, then press down on the shutter to record the enigma of the photographed object and disclose that moment of astronomical legend. Or my curiosity towards the boundary lines of mystery. The sunlight that falls upon the earth exquisitely, cruelly, deeply affecting. To photograph with sensation, to preserve the moment at its current state, that is the photographer.

    My longitudinal study in the last 12 years is seemingly a correlational research study that has involved a myriad of repeated observations of words from all sources, and thereafter I have taken great pains and patience, based on format and methodology, in accumulation of related words and nearby words quantitatively and qualitatively in categories and in lines. Samples of various phrasal nouns, phrasal verbs, a phrasal verb is a combination of verb and an adverb, phrasal adjectives and phrasal prepositions and additionally prefixes, suffixes and interfixes, etc. are also available for perusal and reminiscence, and consequently helpful to the acquirement for a repository of words or phrases ever more conveniently and effectively. This Book is published by EHGBooks - A Micropublisher with authorized distribution sales channel over Amazon.com.Frank Sit is a multilingual expert. Born and raised in Indonesia, he graduated from the National Taiwan University, and had been active in the promotion of commerce between Indonesia, Taiwan and China and had served as the secretary of International Junior Chamber of Commerce for many years. He realized the importance of the use of English language in international commerce, and the use of prefixes and suffixes has been less than satisfactory. He decided to devote over a decade of his efforts to clarify the usage of suffices and prefixes. As a result, he has developed the most comprehensive dictionary of prefixes and suffixes for linguistic learning in English.

    The Chinese acupuncturists use needles to treat at least one hundred fifty kind diseases with successes for thousands of years on more than one billion people with remarkable success.But it has not been accepted by the main stream Western medicine, and taught in main stream medical school. Probably it is due to two factors: theoretically it has not been explained by modern science, and second there is no quantitative objective evidence for it. This book answers these two questions. It provides modern scientific explanation to important concepts, especially meridians and qi. What are meridians made up of? What are acupoints? What is qi? Can they be seen? This book presents copious pictures taken by infrared images method. They provide the objective evidence how acupuncture works, what are meridians made up of , and what is the measurable effect of qi. Each thermograph has more than ten thousand pixels. Each pixel is associated with one temperature to the accuracy of 0.1 0 C. So the science of acupuncture becomes a quantitative science with enormous accurate numbers as supporting evidence.  This book contains twenty nine easy to read articles, which cover many important topics in acupuncture and Chinese medicine. Each essay has at least one infrared image, So the reader can see the images for himself ,and understand that there are incredible accurate data supporting acupuncture and Chinese medicine.

    China is increasingly important on the world scene yet has remained misunderstood in the West. This book is written for English language readers, including my ABC (American Born Chinese) children for understanding of China, its history and culture and as a guide to travels in China with a list of UNESCO World Heritage sites. Chinese culture is a culture of peace. In history, China had beenn at the receiving end of aggression, especially from Japan. Neither Chinese Nationalists or Communists sought war reparations from Japan for loss of life and property damages. Since the end of WWII, China has pursued a good neighbor policy with Japan. Never-ending tit-for-tat hostility is counter-productive to nurture long-lasting peace. To learn from history, we must not forget. To forget is to risk repeating history. To give English language readers a basic understanding of China, an introductory guide and an outline of history provide some background information of China and its relations with the outside world. Shortly after visiting the Flying Tiger Museum in Chongqing, I heard the news of Anna Chennault's passing in March 2018, 60 years after General Chennault's death in 1958. To refresh the memory of the war-time hero and the Flying Tigers he led, I dedicated a special section to tell the story of Claire Chennault and the Flying Tigers who made a great contribution in the war with Japan.My father was a general in Republic of China Nationalist army during the war. I have included my family experiences in the war following war movements in Hubei, Hunan, Chongqing, Guangzhou and Taiwan. These places have undergone tremendous changes in the last 40 years. I am impressed with the transformation from war-torn China. China is rich in history, culture and natural beauty. As a happy ending for this book, I have included reports of my visits to China in recent years to share with readers. A list of 53 UNESCO World Heritage sites is provided.To help readers in the pronunciation of Chinese names and places, a guide to Chinese pinyin used in Microsoft Word is provided. Some uncommon names in Chinese are included for clarification. I thank my husband, Professor George Tsao, for his help to place photos in the text and my daughter, Helen Tsao, for the design of the book. The purpose of this book is not to perpetuate grievances, but to learn from history. Japanese people are peace-loving just like people all over the world. They were only being loyal to Emperor Hirohito who had the ambition to conquer Asia. The current emperor Akihito has time and again expressed deep remorse over the war. We must separate peace-loving Japanese from the right-wing extremists. We have learned from history that peace-loving people were often led to the warpath by megalomaniacs with grandiose ambition to dominate the world. In recent years, China and Japan have largely maintained a cooperative relationship and friendly people to people exchanges. Strong Confucian ethics and the participation of Taiwan, Korea will form an economic block for win-win development of Asia.In other parts of the world, 100 years after WWI and 73 years after WWII, there are still war activities, unrests, terrorists, refugees, poverty-much man-made suffering. Now that we have entered the nuclear age, we pledge to learn from history so that we don't stumble into WWIII. It was estimated that 25 million people died in WWI, more than 60 million died in WWII including 20 million in China and additional 10 million elsewhere in Asia, in even bigger world scale of war. It was estimated 80 to 100 million Chinese refugees fled from the war zones. We are the lucky ones to have survived the war. To honor the memory of all who perished in war, we must learn from history for peace, so they shall not have died in vain. Forgive, but never forget!
