Yangzhou - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Yangzhou is famous for its carved lacquerware and jade carvings. From the time of the Taiping Rebellion (1853) to the end of the Communist revolution (1949) Yangzhou was in decline, due to war damage and neglect of the Jinghang Canal as railways replaced it in importance. Yangzhou has a history of almost 2,500 years, being founded in the Spring and Autumn Period when it was called Kuang-Ling. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Yangzhou   (759 words)

Tang Dynasty Tang craftsmanship broke away from the past in a bold new movement forward with the experimentation of shape and form expressed in Calligraphy, Poetry, Bronze Works, Jade Works, Ceramics, Painting and thought. A rebellion of the court of Tang forced Hsuan-tsung to flee Ch’ang-an and seek refuge in Szechuan. By the arrival of the Tang Dynasty Buddhism had become the mainstream religion of China and often Chinese Buddhism is equated to a tree with one trunk and many branches to express the wide diversities of different types of Buddhist sects and beliefs. www.thejadetrade.com /ian/p8b.html   (961 words)

TheForce.Net - Books - Reviews Tales from the New Republic I particularly liked the Zahn/Stackpole novella "Interlude at Darkknell." It was a real treat to see Hal Horn in something other than his son's memories, to find out what propelled Garm Bel-Iblis into the Rebellion, and to see Ysanne Isard less than perfect, as she began her rise to power. There's the character missing his eye, Bel Iblis' family being blown to bits, Mara Jade in the slime, aquatic melks (sharks) eating corpses, etc etc etc. Moreover, there was an element of predictability to these stories as well, evidenced in "No Disintegrations, Please" and in the story "Conflict of Interest." As a result, in my opinion, the inclusion of these stories weighed the rest of the volume down. www.theforce.net /books/reviews/r_tales-newrep.asp   (1285 words)

hsiwu For a multitude of reasons, ever since the episode 'Tale of the Demon Tail' we have viewed them as the perfect couple, perhaps because of Jade's obsession with magic and her rebellion, and the fact that Hsi Wu was able to pass for human, fooling even our beloved Uncle. Hsi Wu is one of the Eight Demon Sorcerers, the Sky Demon. He is considered by most fans of the show as the most underrated demon, and he is also the favorite of many. www.geocities.com /spleef_lady/hsiwu   (486 words)

The Mongol rule of China was brought to an end after a civil war among Mongol princes and generals created conditions for a popular massive peasant rebellion that the foreign Mongol rulers could not contain. During the Ming Dynasty incredible advances in the sciences and arts were achieved giving the Chinese great pride and self confidence with the knowledge that that they had created the most advanced civilization on earth. www.thejadetrade.com /ian/p8e.html   (1056 words)

The Citadel: Prophecies - A Game of Thrones While he led a rebellion and turned a blind eye to certain unpleasant events, he was not himself a bad man. On the other hand, this does fit Ser Gregor Clegane very well, from the stone armor to the great height to the darkness and blood. He lifted his eyes and saw clear across the narrow sea, to the Free Cities and the green Dothraki sea and beyond, to Vaes Dothrak under its mountain, to the fabled lands of the Jade Sea, to Asshai by the Shadow, where dragons stirred beneath the sunrise. Perhaps the best argument for it being Gregor (or, at least, not Robert) is the fact that Robert appears to already be in the vision, since Ned is pleading to him. www.westeros.org /Citadel/Prophecies/Prophecies01a.html   (1056 words)
