Los diamantes de la gran duquesa

Los diamantes de la gran duquesa es una historieta creada en 1972 por el autor de cómics español Francisco Ibáñez perteneciente a su serie Mortadelo y Filemón.
Publicada por primera vez en forma seriada en la revista Mortadelo números 87 (17-7-1972) al 97 (2-10-1972),​ más tarde recopilada en el n.º 20 de la colección Ases del Humor y en 1994 en el n.º 66 de la Colección Olé.​
Mortadelo y Filemón son los encargados de vigilar los diez diamantes de la Gran Duquesa Tatialagueña, pero Vicente el Urraco se los ha conseguido robar. El urraco ha escondido los diamantes en diez lugares distintos (una obra, un edificio, hundidos en el puerto, una peluquería, un árbol, las alcantarillas, el club de la broma, la finca Los Cantorrodaos, un parque municipal y la guarida de un gánster) y Mortadelo y Filemón tendrán que recuperarlos.
Diamante de imitación

El alto precio de los diamantes de grado gema ha creado una gran demanda por materiales con características gemológicas similares, conocidos como simulantes de diamantes, o imitaciones. Los simulantes son distintos del diamante sintético, que a diferencia de los simulantes es diamante verdadero, y en consecuencia tiene las mismas propiedades materiales que el diamante natural. Los diamantes mejorados también están excluidos de esta definición. Un simulante de diamante puede ser artificial, natural, o en algunos casos una combinación de ellos. Aunque las propiedades materiales difieren significativamente de las del diamante, los simulantes tienen ciertas características deseadas —como su dispersión óptica y dureza— que los hacen propensos a la imitación. Los gemólogos entrenados con equipamiento adecuado pueden distinguir los diamantes naturales y sintéticos de todos los simulantes de diamantes, principalmente por inspección visual.
Los simulantes de diamante más común son el vidrio al plomo y la zirconia cúbica (CZ), ambos materiales artificiales. Desde la década de 1950, han sido desarrollados una cantidad significativa de otros materiales artificiales, como el titanato de estroncio y el rutilo sintético, pero estos no son de uso común. Introducida a finales del siglo XX. la moissanita, de crecimiento producido en laboratorio, ha ganado popularidad como una alternativa al diamante.
Para que sea considerado para uso como un simulante de diamante, un material debe poseer ciertas propiedades similares al diamante. Los simulantes artificiales más avanzados tienen propiedades que se acercan bastante a las del diamante, pero todos los simulantes tienen una o más características que clara y fácilmente (para quienes están familiarizados con los diamantes) los diferencian de los diamantes. Para un gemólogo, las propiedades más importantes entre las propiedades diferenciales son las de ensayos no destructivos, y la mayoría de estos son de naturaleza visual. Los ensayos no destructivos son preferidos porque muchos diamantes sospechosos ya están cortados en gemas y engastados en joyería, y si un ensayo destructivo (que básicamente se fundamentan en la fragilidad y blandura relativa de los no diamantes) falla, puede dañar el simulante —esto no es un resultado aceptable para la mayoría de propietarios de joyas, puesto que incluso si una piedra no es un diamante puede ser de valor—.
Bañista con cabello largo

Bañista con cabello largo (en francés: Baigneuse aux cheveux longs) es un cuadro de Pierre-Auguste Renoir del año 1895 y conservado en el Museo de la Orangerie de París.​
Representada en un marco indeterminado, Bañista con cabello largo evoca una edad de oro edénica, de acuerdo con la sensualidad sencilla y natural de Renoir. Sus desnudos de los años 1890 tienen la intemporalidad de las ninfas liberadas de todo pretexto mitológico. Tal como Renoir lo recordaba hacia el final de sus días:​
Este óleo sobre tela de 82 × 65 cm es característico del período "nacarado" de Renoir. Dentro de una luz difusa, el cuerpo de la bañista y el paisaje sumariamente sugerido son recorridos por iridiscencias que difuminan las formas. La modelo de esta bañista seguramente fue la misma que la de la pianista de Muchachas al piano y, la más joven, la de la figura vista de perfil de Retrato de dos chicas.​
La muchacha, con las piernas sumergidas hasta medio muslo, parece ignorar al espectador. Mientras su atención se dirige hacia algo situado a la derecha, en el exterior del cuadro, sostiene un drapeado que repliega sobre el pecho.​ La suave redondez de su cara parece armonizar perfectamente con la carne y las curvas de su cuerpo, mientras que sus cabellos dorados se hacen eco del movimiento imperceptible de la vegetación del fondo.​
Antes de ser adquirida por Paul Guillaume, esta pintura fue propiedad del famoso marchante Paul Durand-Ruel (1831-1922).​
De este cuadro hay otra versión, casi idéntica, fechada en 1895, que pertenece a la fundación Barnes (Merion, Pensilvania), pero aquí la disolución del paisaje es más notable.​
Melena (cabello)

Se llama melena o cabellera​ al conjunto de pelo largo y tendido que cae sobre la espalda.​ Una "melena" puede ser un símbolo de cuidado y belleza, ya que el pelo largo no es fácil de mantener. Para aquella persona con el cabello largo y abundante, se puede utilizar el adjetivo «melenudo».
Referido comúnmente como: Conjunto de cabello grueso y duro, cuando son largos y abundantes
Los hebreos llevaban los cabellos largos y solo los sacerdotes se los hacían cortar. Los griegos más antiguos los llevaban también muy largos y los rizaban sobre la frente formando un tupé (coymbión). En cuanto a las mujeres, empleaban un peinado complicadísimo y eminentemente artístico como resulta de las estatuas de madera arcaicas descubiertas en las excavaciones del Erecteión.
Los antiguos romanos llevaron los cabellos largos hasta el año 454 (299 a. C.) de la fundación de aquella ciudad pero después los llevaron cortos y las cabelleras largas pasaron a ser señal de afeminamiento.
Entre los galos y francos, la cabellera larga significaba nobleza. Muchos pueblos germanos unían sus largos cabellos en una trenza detrás de la cabeza. Así entre ellos como en otros pueblos antiguos, una cabeza rasa era señal de esclavitud y de ahí la abdicación del rey Wamba a quien como es sabido le cortaron los cabellos estando dormido.
En Francia, se llevaron los cabellos largos hasta el reinado de Francisco I que al objeto de curarse una herida de la cabeza introdujo la moda de llevarlos cortos. Acabó con esta moda Luis XIII lo cual hizo se introdujera el uso de las pelucas que adquirieron enorme desarrollo bajo Luis XIV. En tiempo de Luis XV comenzó el uso de las pelucas empolvadas y de la coleta, en uso hasta finales del siglo XVIII en cuya época apareció el peinado a lo Tito en honor a los clásicos recuerdos de Roma y consecutivamente se pusieron de moda​ los diferentes peinados hoy en uso.

Karol G discography

The discography of Colombian recording artist Karol G consists of four studio albums, two mixtapes, 75 singles (including 11 as featured artist) and 6 promotional singles.
Her collaboration with Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny "Ahora Me Llama" became her breakthrough hit, and was the lead single for her debut album Unstoppable, released in 2017. In late 2018, her song "Secreto" became a hit in Latin America as she and Anuel AA publicly confirmed their relationship in the music video. In July 2019, she released "China" in collaboration with Anuel AA, Daddy Yankee, Ozuna and J Balvin, which became her first music video with over one billion views on YouTube. In May 2019, she released the album Ocean, which served as a stylistic departure from Unstoppable, incorporating a more relaxed atmosphere in her work. Her song "Tusa" with Nicki Minaj also charted internationally and was certified 28× Latin Platinum by the RIAA, staying #1 on the Billboard Argentina Hot 100 chart for 25 weeks. Karol G achieved her highest-charting single on the Billboard Hot 100 with the top 10 song "TQG", a collaboration with Shakira.
With her fourth album, Mañana Será Bonito (2023), Karol G became the first woman to ever debut at number one on the Billboard 200 chart with a Spanish-language album.
Punto G (Karol G song)

"Punto G" (Spanish for "G Spot") is a song by Colombian singer-songwriter Karol G. It was written by Karol G, Andy Clay and Rayito, and produced by the latter two. The song was released on April 4, 2019 through Universal Music Latino, as the fourth single from her second studio album Ocean.
The song was first teased a month prior to its official release through Karol G's social media accounts, with snippets of the song, video and lyrics used in her captions. The song was officially announced a day prior to its release. The song was released on April 4, 2019.
Rolling Stone stated: "Few reggaeton songs have championed the vagina as intimately as Karol G does in "Punto G" — opting to skip the graphic details, Karol masters the delicate art of sensual suggestion." There is a lot of stigma against women in the industry making music about intimacy.
"Punto G" debuted at number 40 on the US Billboard Hot Latin Songs chart dated April 20, 2019. It charted for one week. On its fifth week, the song entered and peaked at number 30 on the chart dated May 18, 2019.

Kapo (singer)

Juan David Loaiza Sepúlveda (born 15 December 1997), known professionally as Kapo, is a Colombian singer and songwriter in the reggaeton and Afrobeat genres.
Kapo was born in Zaragoza, near Medellín, and grew up in El Cabuyal, a municipality near Cali. His stage name comes from his father's nickname. From a young age, he became interested in traditional Colombian music, which led him to write his first song, "Yo tengo un sueño," at the age of 13. At 16, he moved to the capital, Bogotá, where he sought opportunities for his musical career. There, he participated in the impersonation reality show Yo Me Llamo, imitating Puerto Rican rapper Cosculluela.
In 2019, Kapo was discovered by the music production company La Industria Inc., home to artists such as Manuel Turizo and Nicky Jam. This allowed him to meet other established artists in the genre and release music regularly. He released his first international hits in 2024, with Afrobeat-style songs. His song "Ohnana" charted on the Hot Latin Songs and Billboard Global 200 charts, as did his song "UWAIE," which quickly went viral on TikTok. He became supported by Amazon Music's Artist Development Program, which focuses on new artists.
Baby Face (toy)

Baby Face is an American brand of baby dolls that were manufactured by Galoob in 1990–1991. They were designed by toy inventor Mel Birnkrant.
Baby Face dolls are all vinyl, 13 inches tall, chubby babies with extra joints at knees and elbows in addition to joints at hips, shoulders and neck. They are strung dolls with fixed eyes and rooted hair. The Baby Face series included 20+ dolls and more than a dozen different face molds. The dolls can be identified by a number on the back of the neck.
In 1990–1991, Galoob Toys, Inc. conducted a competition for the next Baby Face Doll. The competition consisted of judging photos sent by the entrants. A second-place winner, received a Baby Face Doll that resembles the facial expression of their photo.*cited
They sold very well. However, due to events and politics within the toy industry, the dolls were discontinued in spite of the fact that they were a best seller. Baby Face dolls are collectable today. There are websites and collector clubs devoted to Baby Face dolls.
In addition to the dolls (above) that were mass-produced in China, there were some prototype dolls that were under consideration. Some of the prototype dolls made their way into the hands of collectors and are extremely rare. So Bossy Beverly, So Whistling Wendy, Black Sally, So Cheerful Charlie and other variations nearly made it to production before the series was cancelled.
Red Dress Day

Red Dress Day, or Red Dress Campaign, is an annual event held by the REDress Project in memory of the lives of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls across Canada. This event was originally held on May 5, 2010, and continues annually. The event is sometimes held on other dates throughout the year to coincide with other days of action, such as National Indigenous Peoples Day. Associated names with this event include National Day of Awareness For Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women And Girls. Red Dress Day is one of several campaigns started by activists to call attention to disproportionate rates of violence against Indigenous women.
Inspired by the work of Métis artist Jaime Black that would go on to spark the REDress Project, this day draws attention to the more than 1,000 Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (MMIWG) in Canada. The project was started in 2010 after Black displayed an installation at the University of Winnipeg that included a series of empty red dresses to honour and symbolize the lost lives of Indigenous women at the hands of violence. On this day, participants are encouraged to display empty red dresses in public spaces or wear red dresses to show support for the lives of MMIWG. Additional activities taking place on this day include also marches, memorials, and walks across Canada. Installations of red dresses are displayed in museums, university campuses, and exhibits. The origins of this day began with the Walking With Our Sisters – K’omoks where a public memorial art installation had taken place in honour of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women.
May 5 was the birthday of Lisa Marie Young, a 21-year-old Tla-o-qui-aht woman who disappeared under suspicious circumstances from Nanaimo, BC on Canada Day 2002. Despite hundreds of tips from the public, RCMP investigators have made no progress in the case.
In 2016, the first the Red Dress Awareness Campaign and Installation were organised and generated higher volumes of public attention on a national scale in both Canada and the United States. Although the REDress Project was not created as a call for a National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls, many supporters of the project and subsequent REDress Day are in favour of such an investigation, and used the event to put pressure on the Canadian government.
Staff from the Awo Taan Native Healing Lodge, a shelter for Indigenous women and children in Calgary, Alberta, organized a local Red Dress Day event on November 19, 2019 at Calgary’s Central Library. Attendees of the event had the chance to learn more about Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls, and were also invited to make a small felt doll wearing a red dress, inspired by the original project’s installation of red dresses.
Students at Cardinal Leger Secondary School, in Brampton, Ontario, paid tribute to Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls on May 3, 2017, during an event inspired by Red Dress Day. The students wrote names taken from the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls list on approximately 1,200 red feathers, which were then placed in trees near the school.
Hand heart

A hand heart is a gesture in which a person forms a heart shape using their fingers.
The "hand heart" is typically formed by one using both thumbs to form the bottom of the heart, while bending the remaining fingers and having them connect at the fingernails in order to form a heart shape. However, in recent years, the practice has evolved to include people using the index and middle fingers to form the heart, as opposed to using the entire hand.
Often, two people will each form half of a heart, conjoining the two as a sign of affection.
The upside down hand heart gesture was noted in art in 1989, when Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan created an art image of the gesture as his first artwork named Family Syntax. The gesture became popular in the early 2010s. This gesture was added to Unicode 14.0 and Emoji 14.0 in 2021 with code point U+1FAF6 🫶 HEART HANDS. House, Trance and Techno Dj and producer BlackHeart created the Hand Heart during an exhibition in the rave scene in 1998. This became a part of series of signature dance maneuvers blending the innovative Rave dance moves, Liquid and elements from Electric Boogaloo and Hip Hop Poppin' known as Pediments and the Heartbeat. Blackheart modified the Heartbeat which is a Poppin' move from seventies and incorporated his own version of it using the Hand Heart. BlackHeart's girlfriend loved the move at the time and began using it to great ravers on the dancefloor in spirit of the raver mantra PLUR. After millennium the Hand Heart became a popular greeting, blessing of love and farewell gesture that it spread rapidly throughout the Rave scene and eventually into Pop culture.
Google filed a patent in July 2011 that allowed Google Glass users to use the hand heart in front of an object to cause the gadget to automatically recognise the object, take a picture, and send it to social networks as a "liked" image.
Hearts in Unicode

As a common symbol throughout typographic history, the heart shape has found its way into many character sets and encodings, including those of Unicode. Some characters depict the shape directly, others reference it in a more derived manner.
In the 1990s, NTT DoCoMo released a pager that was aimed at teenagers. The pager was the first of its kind to include the option to send a pictogram as part of the text. The pager only had a single pictogram on its options, which was a heart-shaped pictogram. This is thought to be Shigetaka Kurita's first exposure to the use of digital symbols in text form. The pager received rave reviews in Asia which led to other companies in the region to consider using pictograms in the list of text characters. NTT DoCoMo then released another pager aimed at businesspeople, but this time dropped the heart pictogram from the characters on the pager. Following its release, there was an outcry by users that the pictogram was no longer available, and many customers switched to other providers that had now included a heart pictogram in their markup. This led NTT DoCoMo to reverse their decision and include the heart pictogram.
As the emoji became more popular, other heart colours were launched by Unicode. Since then, each heart color has been given its own meaning.
In early 2022, Middle Eastern news publications suggested that sending a Red Heart emoji on WhatsApp in Saudi Arabia could amount to harassment and if convicted, the sender could serve a maximum sentence of two years in jail.
The red heart (❤️) emoji is an ideogram that is used in communication to express care and as a romantic or love gesture. It is frequently seen as the most popular emoji in surveys conducted by NTT DoCoMo.
The Heart Eyes (😍) emoji is to express happiness towards something. The Unicode Consortium listed it as the third most used emoji in 2019, behind the Red Heart and Face with Tears of Joy emoji. It frequently appears in the top 10 lists for the most common emoji.
A common emoticon for the heart is <3. In Unicode several heart symbols are available in text format:
In Code page 437, the original character set of the IBM PC, the value of 3 (hexadecimal 03) represents the heart symbol. This value is shared with the non-printing ETX control character, which overrides the glyph in many contexts.
The single Unicode character heart related emojis can be found on the Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs, Supplemental Symbols and Pictographs, and Symbols and Pictographs Extended-A ranges.
Red Carpet (software)

費玉清

張彦亭（1955年7月17日—），藝名費玉清，外號小哥，小名亭亭，出身臺灣臺北，以其華語、臺灣閩南語流行歌曲演唱及綜藝節目主持表現等，在當代華語世界廣為人知。他在2019年舉行告別演出，後於2020年初完成合約工作後宣布自演藝事業退休。他是前歌手費貞綾及藝人張菲的弟弟。
他的姊姊張彥瓊（藝名費貞綾）在將他引介給中國電視公司時，幫他取藝名作費玉清，這個藝名的由來據稱是當時一部電視劇男主角的名字「費玉青」。
他出生於臺北市，先後畢業於銘傳國小、永春國中、協和高級工商職業學校汽車維修科等。
1972年8月底，他參加中國電視公司舉辦的「星對星」歌唱比賽，獲得該比賽第二階段（共六階段）的冠軍；1973年3月9日播出總決賽，他以一曲「煙雨斜陽」獲得第四名，正式出道，成為中視基本歌星。費玉清在入伍當兵前一個月，經費貞綾介紹進入當時臺北市著名夜總會「迪斯角夜總會」唱開場，頗受好評。入伍服役時，費為中華民國陸軍996梯次，初期集訓地點為新竹市埔頂；集訓結束後，以《一個人》一曲考取陸光藝工隊，負責軍中康樂活動，直到退伍。
1977年为著名音乐人刘家昌赏识，开始他歌唱事业。
1984年第19屆金鐘獎，費玉清獲得電視金鐘獎男歌唱演員獎，自此被譽為「金鐘歌王」。1993年至1998年，費玉清與張菲合作主持台視綜藝節目《龍兄虎弟》。在“綜藝大哥大”節目中，張菲被稱作“菲哥”，故費玉清被稱為“小哥”。2006年，費玉清與周杰倫合唱《千里之外》，並收錄在周杰倫同年大碟《依然范特西》中。
1985年，與另外59人一起參加《明天會更好》的歌曲錄製。
2018年9月27日，費玉清發表公开信，宣布在2019年全球告别巡迴演唱會后于5月正式封麥退休（实则因加场而推迟至11月），告別47年的歌唱事業。2019年2月8日，費玉清在臺北出演第一場告別演唱會，在演唱會一開始發表「封麥宣言」，他表示：「對日後生活打了很大的問號，可能會很徬徨，或是寂寞的日子等著我，各位帶給我的回憶，都會在內心深處。」同年5月11、12日，至高雄巨蛋持續進行演唱會。11月7日，費玉清在台北小巨蛋完成最後一場封麥告別演唱會。同年因已有合約，10月起仍參加封麥前最後一檔節目《我們的歌》，將演藝生涯延續至2020年1月至該節目結束才正式退休。
2020年6月，《一剪梅》因被網名「蛋哥」的中國大陸演員張愛欽誤唱而成為迷因，逆向成為歐美和紐西蘭Spotify 50大洗腦歌曲榜。
他演唱時總常頭仰45度角。費玉清在公開場合相當注重儀表，每次登台都會穿西裝（1980年代以前則是西裝或中山裝），自出道以來從來不變，故被稱為“演藝圈公務員”。
費玉清剛出道時以演唱「愛國歌曲」和「淨化歌曲」為人所熟知，至1979年當時還是老三台的年代，愛國歌曲「國恩家慶」（三台聯播國語連續劇《國恩家慶》的主題曲），費玉清的知名度因此而大開。而後費玉清多次取得了中視八點檔大戲主題曲的演唱資格，如「一剪梅」、「挑夫」等，此類曲風多為情感取向的流行歌曲。
1980年費玉清亦在海外地區，如新加坡、馬來西亞等東南亞地區，推出三張翻唱民歌的專輯。1981年再發行兩張民歌專輯。同時期，費玉清與東尼機構合作，每年推出一張翻唱國語老歌的專輯。
綜上，費玉清在歌唱歷程中，其曲風涵蓋了「愛國歌曲」、「淨化歌曲」、「民歌」、「老歌经典」與「流行歌」等種種風格。在流行樂壇，費玉清被尊為20世紀華語流行歌曲傳統風格復興的開山祖師。他的歌曲帶有濃烈的中國風，在華人地區有重要影響力。听众也是老中少青都有。
費玉清主持節目時，專長是模仿其他歌手唱歌，故被稱為“九官鳥”。在秀場時代，費玉清以講黃色笑話聞名，其講黃色笑話功力之強使得他在演藝圈素有「秀場黃帝」，「污妖王」等之稱。2012年，費玉清在天津衛視模仿秀節目《王者歸來》當評審，費玉清講了一段黃色笑話，主持人趙忠祥直言:「你這個笑話恐怕不能播，我主持這麼多年第一次接不上話」。
他的父親名叫張舞曦，曾獲選為第35屆「全國模範父親」，於2017年9月21日因病驟逝，享年96歲。 他的母親名叫譚秀霞，於2010年過世。他有兩位手足，長姊張彥瓊（法名釋恆述）與二兄張彥明（藝名張菲）。
據稱，他決定自演藝事業退休的主要原因，包括母親與父親先後離世。
除了與江蕙的感情傳聞外，費玉清據傳一度與安井千惠訂婚，但最終因故沒有結婚。

廖鴻基(Liao Hung-Chi)，出生於1957年，台灣花蓮市人，花蓮高中畢業。曾經做過水泥公司採購員，也曾經到印尼養蝦。
1992年，不顧親友的異樣眼光，成為職業討海人，並且開始寫作。
1996年，提出「花蓮海域鯨豚調查計畫」，受「洄瀾有線電視台」、《自由時報》資助，以及向晨星出版社預支版稅，自行籌募計劃經費，組成「台灣尋鯨小組」，以「漁津6號」鏢漁船為工作船，自6月25日至9月5日在台灣東部海域從事鯨類海上調查，調查計畫為期2個月又11天，合計30個工作航次，合計記錄了8種鯨豚。小組裡其他成員包括漁民、影像工作者以及文字工作者。
1997年的冬季，為了成立海洋文教基金會，四處奔走，籌募基金。
1998年4月，「黑潮海洋文教基金會」成立，擔任創會董事長，致力於台灣海洋環境、生態及文化工作。
生長在靠海的花蓮，捕魚曾是廖鴻基的職業，海洋是廖鴻基安身立命的天地，海洋既是他生命中不可脫溢而出的軌道，也是他創作的源頭。
多年討海人的生涯，廖鴻基和海洋的關係已經從漁夫的身份變成朋友。
他的作品從描寫魚和人之間的互動關係作為出發點，進而發展出屬於自己和海洋的語言對話，他以豐富的海洋經驗和細膩敏銳的觀察，實地用文字和影像來為海洋作紀錄。
他曾經獲得時報文學獎、吳濁流文學獎、賴和文學獎等重要獎項。
代表作有《討海人》、《鯨生鯨世》、《來自深海》等。
自言因聽從友人陳列的一席話：「寫作沒有你想像的困難，只要將平日熟悉的事物記錄下來，你就是一個作家。」讓從未經過寫作訓練的廖鴻基熱烈的寫起文章。他其實並沒有思考這是否就是文學創作，也不操心所謂的寫作技巧，甚至鮮少閱讀文學作品。只是似乎有一股莫名的巨大力量驅策他以文字記述與海之間的對話和共舞，他努力地讓翻騰湧動於心中的潮浪流露出來。
蔣勳說：他的散文有寫小說的意圖，情節、懸疑、對話、戲劇性的張力，構成強烈的小說傾向。這段話源自1995年10月25日，蔣勳在〈鏗鏘擊撞的「鐵魚」〉一文中評論廖鴻基《討海人》的〈鐵魚〉：「顯然有寫小說的意圖，情節、懸疑、對話、戲劇性的張力，構成了這篇散文強烈的小說傾向。」
《環保花蓮》，花蓮洄瀾文教基金會，1995年5月1日出版
《討海人》、《鯨生鯨世》、《漂流監獄》、《來自深海》被稱為「海洋四部曲」。《黑潮漂流》入選2018、2019法蘭克福書展臺灣館主題書區書單 。《遇見花小香：來自深海的親善大使》入選2020法蘭克福數位書展臺灣館推薦作家_宣傳動畫廣告書單。《遇見花小香：來自深海的親善大使》、《大島小島》、《海童：一本漂流的想像誌》、《黑潮漂流》、《十六歲的海洋課》入選2020法蘭克福數位書展臺灣館推薦出版品。

新传媒华语电视剧列表 (2010年代之前)

本条目列出20世纪所有新传媒私人有限公司所制作的电视剧。播放时间及日期皆以新加坡时间（UTC+8）为准。
1982年7月25日，新加坡广播局第一个自制的电视单元剧《实里达大劫案》播出，从此开始了新加坡自制华语电视剧的历史。
而在此之前，虽然第八波道已从1964年开始，一直制作中文电视剧，然而只局限于话剧化的短剧及趣剧；而剧集则多数从外地购入，亦因为当时新加坡的语文政策并未出现，所以从香港及台湾购入的剧集皆以其原语言（华语、粤语及闽南语）发声，当时这些外购剧集深受观众欢迎。
直到1979年，长期以英语作为个人母语的时任新加坡总理李光耀发起了“讲华语运动”（新加坡推广华语理事会），从此新加坡的电子媒体一律禁止未经许可的汉语方言广播，外购剧更须要作华语配音，大大增加购剧成本。加上新加坡自1970年代后期起经济迅速增长，提高了人民的生活质素及本土意识，自制华语电视剧的需求大增。以上的种种背景都促使了《实里达大劫案》的诞生。
《实里达大劫案》后，另一套经典剧集《新兵小传》推出，大获成功；新广于1983年成立华文戏剧处，并吸纳了梁立人等多位香港电视剧创作人（大部分因丽的电视易手而离开香港），令剧集产量有所提升。
俄国沙拉

俄国沙拉是俄罗斯菜中一种传统的沙拉。在中欧、东欧和部分南美国家比较流行。在俄国其本名为奥利维耶沙拉（俄语：салат Оливье, salat Olivie），因发明这道菜的俄国主厨卢西安·奥利维尔（俄语：Оливье, Люсьен）而得名。一些欧洲国家也以此名称呼，不过更多国家则以俄国沙拉代称。尽管原始菜谱较为繁复，准备现代俄国沙拉所需的食材通常是熟马铃薯丁、胡萝卜丁，腌黄瓜丁、豌豆、洋葱、鸡蛋、鸡肉丁或火腿丁。上述材料与蛋黄酱、盐、胡椒粉和黄芥末拌匀，并以蛋黄酱在上方装饰即可。在新年时俄国沙拉通常与瓯柑和香槟酒一起作为晚宴的前菜。另外一种变体也被称为“首都沙拉”（салат столичный, salat stolichny）
这个沙拉的原始版本是19世纪60年代由比利时厨师卢西安·奥利维尔（Lucien Olivier）发明的。他是当时莫斯科最受欢迎的餐厅“隐居处”（俄语：Эрмитаж，法語：Hermitage）的主厨。这道沙拉在当地的回头客中非常受欢迎，并成为了餐厅的招牌菜。沙拉的准确配方，尤其是酱料，受到绝密保护。据说沙拉的材料除土豆和生菜外，还包括松鸡肉、小牛舌、鱼子酱、小龙虾、刺山柑和燻鸭肉等上等食材。具体食材的配方也随着季节变化有所调整。沙拉所用的酱料主要是蛋黄酱，再配以法国产的红酒醋、芥末酱和普罗旺斯的橄榄油共同调制而成，但确切配方仍然未知。
在20世纪初，奥利维尔的副主厨伊万·伊万诺夫试着盗取这个配方。据说是一个晚上，当奥利维尔像平时一样独自一人准备酱汁时，因为急事被叫走了。借此机会伊万诺夫潜入了奥利维尔的私人厨房，检查了他的那些调料盒。这使他能够对那个著名酱料配方做出一些合理的猜测。伊凡诺夫随后便辞职，并去了莫斯科另一家的餐厅做厨师。在那里他开始以“首都沙拉”（столичный，stolichny）的名字提供一种相似的沙拉。然而，当时的美食家们评论说，首都沙拉的调料酱质量比奥利维尔低，并表示它“少了点什么”。
后来，伊万诺夫把沙拉的配方卖给了几家出版社，这也进一步推动了这一道沙拉在俄国的普及。在1905年，隐居处餐厅关闭，奥利维尔家族也离开了俄罗斯。自此之后，这一类沙拉都被通称为奥利维耶沙拉。
迄今为止最早公布的食谱出现在1894年3月31日俄罗斯杂志《我们的食物》（Нашапища）第六期。这本杂志从1891年到1896年出版，据主编伊格纳杰夫（M. Ignatiev）称，原酱料中还包括由John Burgess & Son和Crosse & Blackwell两家公司生产的“蒙古酱”或“喀布尔酱”，而其后的菜谱也有人用酱油代替蒙古酱调制酱料。
1897年，奥利维尔沙拉第一次出现在食谱书《烹饪艺术基础指南》（Руководство к изучению основ кулинарного искусства）上，食谱作者为阿列克桑德罗娃。配方为，半只淡褐松鸡、两个土豆、一个小黄瓜（或一个大的玉米笋）、三四片生菜叶、三个大的小龙虾、1/4杯肉冻块、一茶匙刺山柑、三五颗橄榄和一汤匙半的普罗旺斯酱蛋黄酱。作者称，正宗菜谱应包含松鸡，但也可以用小牛肉、鹧鸪肉或鸡肉来代替。
早期，俄国沙拉的材料通常含有冷食肉类，以及海鲜或鱼子酱。在俄国革命后，一些口感或颜色相近但较为便宜的食材开始逐渐取代了那些原始配料：人们用水煮蛋和胡萝卜来获得小龙虾的口感和颜色，松鸡被鸡肉或波洛尼亚香肠所替代，橄榄和刺山柑则被人们分别用酸黄瓜和豌豆来代替。在20世纪中期的一些俄罗斯风味餐厅，食材则包括了牛舌、香肠、龙虾肉等。
现代的俄国沙拉，与传统的奥利维尔沙拉相比，实际上更为接近首都沙拉。做法为将水煮后的土豆、豌豆、鸡蛋、胡萝卜，配上腌黄瓜和博洛尼亚香肠或者熟牛肉或熟鸡肉，用蛋黄酱调和而成。也有人根据喜好加入苹果丁和根芹菜丁。俄国沙拉是苏联时期节日晚宴的保留菜式，尤其常见于公历除夕年夜饭的时候，常与香槟酒和橘子相伴。尽管现在的俄罗斯冬季食物来源已变得丰富，但俄国沙拉仍然是俄罗斯人庆祝新年时最喜爱的菜式。在2012年12月，俄罗斯乌拉尔河畔的奥伦堡做出了史上最大份的奥利维尔沙拉，重达1841公斤。
这道沙拉在巴尔干各国都非常流行，配料相近，且在各国语言中多称其为俄国沙拉。如保加利亚版本的俄国沙拉（руска салата，ruska salata）包括土豆、胡萝卜、豌豆、腌黄瓜和某种萨拉米或香肠。不过希腊版本的俄国沙拉（ρώσικη σαλάτα，rossiki salata）则通常不含肉。但也有国家称其为“法国沙拉”，如克罗地亚（francuska salata）和斯洛文尼亚（francoska solata）。
在罗马尼亚，这份沙拉的变种称为牛肉沙拉（Salată de boeuf）。与俄国沙拉的不同点则是肉类采用剁碎的熟牛肉。腌黄瓜则用罗马尼亚传统腌菜Murături代替。
在捷克，俄国沙拉则被称为土豆沙拉（bramborový salát），尽管配料相近，包括煮熟切块的蔬菜（土豆、胡萝卜、根芹菜），碎洋葱和腌菜，配上蛋黄酱酱料。也经常配上切块的煮鸡蛋、软萨拉米香肠和青豌豆。土豆沙拉通常作为圣诞晚餐的保留菜式，作为炸猪排或炸鲤鱼的配菜。
在波兰，俄国沙拉的变体则称为蔬菜沙拉（sałatka jarzynowa），包括豌豆、煮鸡蛋和蔬菜三丁。酱料同样为蛋黄酱。不同地区可能会加入苹果丁等其他蔬菜。西里西亚沙拉（szałot）是一种变体，除煮熟的土豆、胡萝卜、鸡蛋和豌豆外，还包括培根、香肠和腌鲱鱼 。沙拉通常出现在圣诞夜家庭团聚的晚餐餐桌上。
在南欧的俄国沙拉则通常以鱼来代替熟肉。在西班牙，俄国沙拉（Ensalada rusa）则通常作为塔帕斯，一种餐前小食。煮熟的土豆和胡萝卜通常不切丁而是绞碎成泥，另外配以绞碎的煮鸡蛋、罐装碎金枪鱼、豌豆和蛋黄酱。 意大利的俄国沙拉（Insalata russa）和葡萄牙的俄国沙拉（salada russa）与西班牙的基本相同。
因为西班牙和东欧移民的关系，这道菜在厄瓜多尔、秘鲁、阿根廷、乌拉圭和巴西等拉美国家也非常流行。当地人也称其为俄国沙拉，但选用食材则仅剩煮熟的土豆、胡萝卜和豌豆。酱料同样为蛋黄酱。
在中国，20世纪初在上海的西餐厅受到俄罗斯移民影响下，开始制作并售卖以俄国沙拉为基础的洋山芋色拉。
在伊朗，俄国沙拉通常被作为三明治夹层。在印度和巴基斯坦，这道菜通常在咖啡馆里作为一道配菜。不过在巴基斯坦，一种由圆白菜和苹果丝做成的沙拉也被称为俄国沙拉。
在蒙古，这类沙拉被称为首都沙拉。
在土耳其，这道菜也被称为俄国沙拉。同样由煮熟切块的土豆、胡萝卜，以及腌黄瓜和豌豆，配以蛋黄酱而成。上面常用黑色橄榄和甜菜根点缀。也用作三明治夹层或烤马铃薯的夹心。
烏鱧

烏鱧（學名：Channa argus），又名北方蛇頭魚（Northern snakehead）、斑魚、黑魚、生鱼、烏魚、烏棒、蛇頭魚、文魚和才魚，属鱧科鱧屬，在中国是一种常见的食用鱼。
烏鱧有雄性大於雌性的現象，一般成年烏鱧的體長約在40至70公分之間，不過有些大型烏鱧的體長長達80公分以上，目前為止發現最大的烏鱧有接近1.5公尺之長（也有人說是1.2公尺），重達15磅（7公斤左右），據說是在俄羅斯被發現的。
烏鳢的口部延伸至眼部後方，長長的背鰭大約有49至50個鰭刺，而臀鰭則有不少于30個鰭刺。烏鳢的體色是其最明顯的特徵，一般大多為棕色，不過有少數部位可能為金色或蒼白色，烏鳢身體兩側的斑點呈現鞍狀排列。
烏鳢在亞洲被廣泛視為一種十分美味的食用魚，在大部分餐廳及家庭菜式均有出現，廣東人尤喜加入西洋菜、陳皮、鴨腎等作湯；贵州人用黑鱼在发酵糯米和番茄制成的酸汤中炖制而成的酸汤鱼是贵州名菜。大韓民國在1992年時出產了500公噸左右的烏鳢，但烏鳢卻未成為地理位置相近的日本市場中十分普遍的魚種，而在其他地區，如鹹海和塔拉河，每年都各會有1－5公噸和10公噸的產量，台灣亦有引入了此種作為食用魚。
牠們有鰓,也有輔助呼吸器官,只要有水氣就可以在旱災時躲在泥中度過。
烏鳢自然分布于中国东部、朝鲜至俄罗斯远东地区各大水系等。常栖息于湖泊、河流及沟渠中以及常潜伏在水草茂盛处，喜好生存於底部為泥土、有水生植物與水流緩慢平靜的湖泊、河川、池塘、水庫以及運河等水域。该物种的模式产地在舟山群岛。
烏鳢的幼魚由兩隻成魚守護，並會把卵放置於60至80公分深的巢穴。烏鳢的在孵化時的第一天，長度大約是5.7毫米；在3天後則會長至7.3毫米，並且開始用魚鰓呼吸，血管會明顯增少，而胸鰭會變大；兩星期後，身長會達到1.1公分長；而1.8公分之後，就會開始食用小甲殼纲動物以及更為幼小的魚；直到長至4到4.5公分時，才會有斑點出現。成魚守護时会攻击游近的动物。
烏鳢是肉食性動物，並且食量非常大。稚鱼以桡足类等为食；体长3至8公分时食昆虫、小虾、小鱼等，以后则以小鱼、蝌蚪及蛙等为食。在养鱼业被视为害鱼。 可吃下體型一半的魚。尤其喜欢在水面捕食。
烏鱧在亞洲被廣泛視為一種十分美味的食用魚，在大部分餐廳及家庭菜式均有出現；根據中醫理論，鱧魚味甘、性寒，具有補脾利水，清熱去風之功效；主治風濕水腫、腳氣、痔瘡等，含有多種氨基酸並有埋口生肌之效。故流行術後以鱧魚（特別是煮湯）進補，可促進傷口癒合。
作為食用魚，烏鳢曾在美國的紐約、休士頓、奧蘭多、聖路易等城市有大量販賣，但因有部份烏鳢流出，在野外大量繁衍，成为入侵物种，对当地生態造成破壞。2007年7月29日，美國當局禁止了烏鳢的進口。
烏鳢在2004年被拍成《恐怖食人魚》（Snakehead Terror）以及《科學怪魚》（Frankenfish）兩部電影，故事中是以烏鳢對生態的破壞為背景，不過《科學怪魚》劇中的烏鳢經基因改造體型龐大，而《恐怖食人魚》則是寫說烏鳢被加入赫爾蒙異常巨大。
撈魚生

撈魚生是生魚片的一種食法，最早見於唐朝，始於廣東靠海兼有魚塘的區域，如中山、順德、南海等地。另外，马来西亚及新加坡等地的华人过农历新年也有捞鱼生的习俗，称为“七彩鱼生”。
材料可分主作料、副作料香料和味料，主作料多為鯇魚，食用前1晚養在清水池，中山小欖人會預早半個月以蕃薯藤餵養鯇魚，使其肉質爽脆。副作料通常有20至50樣，現代通常使用蘿蔔絲、沙葛絲、檸檬皮絲、梨絲、紅辣椒絲、檸檬葉絲、芹菜絲、洗過的蕎頭絲、茶爪絲、酸薑絲、紅薑或甜紅椒絲，香料有炸欖仁、胡椒、花生碎、肉桂末、胡椒粉、薄脆、炸米粉，味料有糖、鹽、檸檬汁混和的汁料，另外再加麻油和生油。食前將鯇魚肉切成蝴蝶形薄片，先與紅椒拌撈魚生片，其次下肉桂末、胡椒粉，然後下油、副作料、味料、香料撈勻完成。
撈魚生有分「生撈」與「濕撈」，所有材料都未經烹煮為生撈，副作料有炸過的欖仁、米粉為濕撈。因為絕大部份材料都是生食，所以更重視衞生，會分開使用宰魚和切魚片用的砧板和刀，亦會以冷開水清洗材料。
