Well, it's hard to say whether the effect of hybrid-crossing or the
effect of screening contributes more. Anyway, looks like people are
getting interested in this subject. On second thought, I think zhong
is not a problem, neither is jie since most people thought that
foreigners are somehow attracted to the asian females. But I think
the afterward is a real problem: how to retain the results, I mean,
Americans are rich and they are real deep into this business for

Hi:

	As I know, Chinese young people need rock music desperately. However,
people dress like Mr.Bay would not be popular there, most of the Chinese or
Oriento people prefer stars have a Star Flavor, have a nice hair style, nice
suits, and whatso ever. Actually, Micheal Jackson are very popular among young
people in China. Meddona too, but quite a lot of people have difficulty to
accept her sexy perfomance, especcially "Like a Virgin", I guess she would not
be that popular compare with Jacksom. Classical Rock is very popular too, as I
know, the songs "The Sound of Silence" and that kind are very popular. 

	Better don't have those too sensitive on politics songs, governor may
not like it, some audience may not like it as well. But really good music can 
have same effects without making governor unhappy.

	Just some information how I feel, hope it can help.


Sincerely

Xiaoxia

         The First Meeting of Ottawa Science and Technology Salon

The first meeting of Ottawa Science and Technology Salon was held on July 
25 at University of Ottawa.   There were about 45 professionals 
and students attended the first meeting.  All the attendants showed their 
highly interests to the talks and discussions at the meeting.   More than 
30 people have registered as salon members and many have volunteered to give 
talks and provide supports to the Salon.   During the discussion at the 
first meeting of the Salon, we have also received many responses from the 
attendants.  Their responses and suggestions can be generally summarized as 
the followings:

- Keeping regular activities of the Salon (every month)
- Trying gradually to start a Salon Magazine;
- Exploring the possibility to register a business under Salon
- Inviting local scientists to join our Salon's activities.

We will consider the responses from the members seriously.   Meanwhile, we
wish more friends will come to join our Salon's activities.   If you
haven't registered to join the Salon, please consider filling up the following 
registration form and return to :   cao@irc.lan.nrc.ca

But try to understand this: the movie will be shown in China starting 
this September, according to a recent report in People's Daily.
And Director ZHang Yi Mou was interviewed by reportors on his
other movies which are shown right now in China.  
Those sentiment towards the movie seems rather pretending to me. I guess
people who are for too long out of touch with China should not make
too strong statements to the situations there.

         Don't Spoil Your Good Feelings in the Summer Olympics

Most of us have been enjoying the superb performances of Chinese athletes
in the Barcelona Summer Olympics (except a few who used to making lots of 
non-sense on SCC and now temporarily disappeared :-)  

The SCC didn't look like right now during 1988 Seoul Summer Olympics,
as I remembered, SCCers then enjoyed it very much.  They spent lots of
their precious time on transcribing TV pictures into SCC articles that
vividly described in every detail the excellent performances of Chinese
athletes, they did see lots of "unfriendly/negative news/reports" but 
they didn't get upset like right now SCCers (SCC was only 10 months old
at that time).

By the way, please be reminded that most of the then SCCers were too
relying on American TV broadcast to watch China's men and women
competing in Seoul!  But they shared enjoyment instead of enrangement :-)

So let our enjoyment go on!      (And share enrangement LATER :-)

          Let's study the relation between culture and food.

          1.  Chinese are very proud of the food we eat, and 
            consider American food unbearable.  But do you realize
            they do not like our food as well?  A friend of mine went
            to China and lost 40 pounds in two months for lack of
            food supply.

          2.  Several things I found Americans hate the most are:
            Fish cooked with bones, especially fish head;
            Wei4 Jing1, we like msg much for it tastes good, not them;
            Cooked vegitables; Americans prefer to have vegitables
            raw, my landlady once told me that she planned to get into
            a habit of eating EVERYTHING raw, and it is her common 
            routine to eat raw cabage.  She "sounded" like a rabit
            when she did it.

          Any american going to china faces the following problems:

            1.  Water from the tap is not directly drinkable;
            2.  Need to go through toilet training;
            3.  No milk;
            4.  No hot water;
            5.  No ice;
            6.  No car;
            7.  Don't know how to drive in a chinese city;

          Any chinese going to the u.s. has the following problems:

            1.  No hong2 shao1 rou4;
            2.  The neighbor looks like stranger and does not
                socialize;
            3.  Don't know what is the right time to go across the
                street;
            4.  Don't know what is the polite way to answer loads
                and loads of ke4 qi4 hua4;
            5.  Hate waitress who asks you 500 questions be4 serving
                you a hamburger;
            6.  Starve to death in an American's home who invites you
                to eat;
            7.  Don't know how to use the phonebook;

          In short, we happen to have exactly the same number of 
          problems as americans.  They did not beat us this time.
