In the News (Wed 3 Dec 08)

  
  WHY SHOULD MAN BE
Man's teeth belong to the latter, and are not suitable for eating flesh.
A further illustration is that if a man has been on a vegetarian diet for a long period, not only will he not think of eating meat thereafter, but also find the smell of meat offensive and upsetting to his stomach, even nauseous.
Man cannot compare with cattle and horses with regard to physical strength and endurance, but they, the cattle and horses, require only plants for replenishment of energy.

Wei Dong narrows his eyes slightly; his gaze dwells on Zhang’s ordinary and energetic face for a moment.

Wei Dong sees a remote figure in his wine cup, a short young man in a sleeveless singlet, hands tied behind his back, eyes covered by a dirty rag, face flened by smoke; this may explain why he couldn’t recall anything familiar about Zhang.

 Amazon.com: Shanghai Baby: A Novel: Books: Wei Hui   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-19)
Wei Hui's debut novel, which was banned in China, delves deep into the dark and glittering heart of Shanghai, as experienced by a hopeful and hedonistic young novelist, Nikki (better known to her friends as Coco, after the also irrepressibly glamorous Coco Chanel).
It is just such paradoxes that make Wei Hui's novel so complex and thought-provoking: she deftly explores the intimate relationships that belie the seeming oppositions of East and West, love and desire, the natural and the artificial, hedonism and spiritualism.
Wei Hui does little to tone down the highly autobiographical nature of the book, which is the reason why it so lacks any sense of humor or perspective.

These days, rarely do you hear about a game made by one man. A vast majority of gaming software requires dozens of people's involvement - that is, if the developer wants the game to be released in a remotely reasonable amount of time.
While not exactly classifiable as a "video game," Electroplankton was indeed conceived by one man, at least for the greater part of the software's development.
Of course, the whole of Electroplankton was not completed by this one man, as a total of fifteen people, including executive producer and president of Nintendo Satoru Iwata, had a part in the creation of Electroplankton.
