Devastating Earthquakes in China and California

中国和加州近期地震灾害

Earthquake is a severe natural disaster threatening human’s life and properties in the world. Californians are living on an earthquake country where one of the world's most famous earthquake-generating faults – the 1,500-km-long San Andreas Fault (SAF) passes. In Northern California, the SAF generated the M7.9 San Francisco earthquake 102 years ago in 1906. Over 3,000 people were killed and 225,000 people were left homeless in the earthquake. In Central California, the SAF generated the M8 Tajon Pass earthquake 151 years ago in 1857. In Southern California, over 300 years have passed since the last big (M8) earthquake occurred in 1690. Another big one (M>8) is likely to happen on the southern California within our lifetime. Many other faults beneath the great Los Angeles areas are also able to generate the devastating earthquakes, like the M6.7 Northridge earthquake in 1994. The Puente Hill fault lying under the San Gabriel Valley where the Chinese overseas gather crowdedly, has capacity to generate a M>7 earthquake and cause the lost over 100 billions of US dollars. The recent investigation points out that in California, the probability of M6.7 earthquake, like the 1994 Northridge earthquake is more than 99%, and the probability of M>7 earthquake in southern California is 82% in the next 30 years.

China is also an earthquake country. The devastating M8 Wenchuan earthquake occurred in Sichuan province on May 12, 2008, rupturing 300-km along the Longmen-Shan Fault (LSF) with the maximum ~9-12 m slip. Its rupture length, slip and magnitude are comparable with those of the great California earthquakes of 1906 and 1857. The LSF is the southern part of the so-called “North-to-South Seismic Belt” in China, which has been evaluated as a highly risky region in China’s Seismic Hazard Model given by AIR. The LSF located at the east margin of the Tibetan Plateau is featured by active tectonics. In the past 200 year, 4-5 M>7 earthquakes occurred on it, with the latest M7.5 event in 1933, which killed more than 5,000 people. The 2008 M8 Wenchuan earthquake killed ~80,000 lives, and caused ~20,000 people missing. It is the worst natural disaster in China after the M7.8 Tang-Shan earthquake in 1996.

In order to delineate the details of the internal structure of the LSF and rock damage at depth caused by this M8 earthquake for selecting safe places to re-build the ruined cities and towns in the region, the author as an earthquake expert aboard invited by Chinese Earthquake Administration went to Sichuan and did scientific investigation at the epicentral area. Here, the author presents pictures to show the damage seen at the ground surface. Eventually, we shall relate the rock fracturing on- and near-fault to the magnitude of moment release and slips as well as the fault geometry and segmentation. The results from the Longmen Shan Fault will be compared with those obtained from the San Andreas Fault to further our understanding earthquake physics. All of our efforts are an aid for earthquake prediction, mitigation, and relief in the current and future earthquakes in the world. In this talk, the speaker will introduce the information on hazards and scenarios of recent major devastating earthquakes in California and Sichuan as well as the preparedness we should care about earthquakes to be safe and reduce property damage.

Educational Issues of Young Chinese American

This study seeks to contribute to the emerging body of Chinese 1.5 generation and second generation on educational challenges due to their heritage language and culture in middle-class Chinese American families. The data collected from the perspectives of advance Chinese heritage speakers and young Chinese American through open-ended interviews and participation observation. Finding suggested that those who have completed elementary-school education in the target settings before immigrating to U.S. insignificantly contribute to 1.5 generation Chinese immigrants’ Chinese literacy ability. The study suggests that parents’ role played most import factors that influenced both American-born Chinese American and 1.5 generation Chinese immigrants’ educational success. This presents recommendations for parents and schools to effectively help young Chinese American. Future directions for research are also discussed.

Modern bamboo structures - towards a greener future

现代竹结构 － 未来的绿色建筑

Bamboo, as a natural resource, has been utilized by mankind for thousands of year. However, modern structures using bamboo as basic material have not been fully explored. Prof. Xiao and his team based in Hunan Province, China have developed an integrated technology called GluBam, in which the amount and the orientations of bamboo fibers are arranged based on design requirement and solidified using biding adhesives through several processing procedures. There are several key characteristics in bamboo based structures. First, the source of raw bamboo materials is widely available in many parts of the world, particularly in Asia, such as China. Bamboos grow much faster than trees, typically can be harvested in four years, and they can re-grow. Second, bamboo has good mechanical properties and relatively easy to process for different purposes. Third and not the last, the manufacturing process of bamboo products is essentially environment friendly, pollution-free, suitable for sustainable development. A GluBam component is a structural element that can be dimensioned and used to carry loads, in a similar way as timber structures. The significance of GluBam innovation is the establishment of an industrialized way of designing and constructing bamboo structures. Prof. Xiao and his team has successfully designed and built several modern structures, including the world’s first truck-safe modern bamboo bridge, which was awarded as one of the Best of What’s New in 2008. After the May 12, 2008 Great Wenchuan Earthquake, Prof. Xiao and his team quickly developed GluBam quake shelters and classrooms and deployed in the earthquake devastated areas.

洛加大（UCLA）中國留學生春晚喜洋洋

加州大學洛杉磯分校（UCLA）600名中國留學生24日歡聚一堂，在Tom Bradly國際中心舉辦學者聯誼會慶祝春節，中國駐洛杉磯教育參贊李曜升、UCLA校長Gene Block、孔子學院代表與留學生一齊祝中國牛年風調雨順，大展宏圖。

晚會由該校中國學生會主辦，留學生與洛杉磯僑界一同表演12個節目，開場有聖蓋博中國文化協會（SGVCCA）的舞獅「祥獅賀歲」、UCLA民樂團的中國民樂合奏「春節序曲」、「喜洋洋」、童聲合唱「新年好」，皮影戲「恭賀新禧」，還有學生表演藏族舞蹈表演「卓瑪」、鋼琴四手聯彈「軍隊進行曲」、女聲獨唱「城裡的月光」、小品「大話西遊」及「三句半:初到UCLA」，好戲連連，贏得臺下觀眾陣陣叫好。

晚會執行總監楊冠文說，春晚是每年中國留學生最盛大的節日，學生們從去年12月開始精心策劃長達半個月時間。也向西方主流社會推廣中國文化，促進兩國文化交流，所以在晚會前安排猜燈謎活動，有猜字、猜成語、猜地名和腦筋急轉彎，中西合璧、老少皆宜，今年還首次邀請UCLA校長出席晚會。

小品「大話西遊」將晚會推向高潮，劇本取材自中國古典四大名著之一「西遊記」，以唐僧、孫悟空、豬八戒、沙僧為原型，但故事講述的是中國留學生在UCLA的學習、生活，面對語言、文化、習俗上的衝突，嘗盡酸甜苦辣，歷盡磨難，最後在課業、人生經歷上都取得「真經」。

臺詞詼諧搞笑，有一幕是沙僧在美國入海關時，因為鬍子太長，被懷疑是恐怖分子，被拒絕入關，另有一幕是白龍馬「泊車」路邊時，因為沒有交夠停車費而被警察開罰單，贏得場下觀眾陣陣爆笑。(World Journal 付菁菁)

李耀昇: 改革開放30年中國出國留學120萬人﹐到華留學人員124萬人

(Chinese Today 孫衛赤)

截止到2007年底﹐中國出國留學人員的累計數為120萬人﹐到華留學人員的累計數字為124萬人﹔到華留學人員的增長速度已經高過出國留學人員的增長速度。中國駐洛杉磯教育參贊李耀昇對此表示﹐這些數字反映了世界的繁榮﹑穩定與和諧離不開中國﹑中國的發展離不開世界的現實。

在1月22日舉行的中國駐洛總領館的新聞發佈例會上﹐李耀昇參贊介紹了改革開放30年來中國教育發展的情況。他表示﹐中國教育的發展﹐不僅與改革開放緊密地聯係在一起﹐而且還是改革開放的領頭羊﹐如1977年恢復高考制度﹐可視為改革先走一步﹔1978年首次公派赴美留學生﹐可視為開放先走一步。

對於出國留學﹐李耀昇表示﹐截止到2007年的統計數字顯示﹐公派及自費出國留學人員的累計數字為120萬人﹐回國人數為32萬人﹐其中在2002 年至2007年間回國的留學人員為19萬人。與以前相比﹐出國留學人員形成了「兩頭大」的趨勢﹐自費留學人員由原來以讀博士學位為主﹐轉變到以讀碩士和本科為主並且低齡化﹔而公派留學人員則是讀博士學位。2007年到2011年間﹐中國政府計劃每年公派5000人出國攻讀博士學位。

李耀昇介紹說﹐能夠反映世界的繁榮﹑穩定與和諧離不開中國﹑中國的發展離不開世界這一現實的另一面是﹐截止到2007年﹐到華留學的人數累計為 124萬﹐這包括了中國政府獎學金項目及學校間的交流項目。到華留學人員人數增長的速度﹐已經超過了中國出國留學人員增長的速度。現在﹐中國有500多所大學接收外國留學及短期進修人員。

李耀昇還談到了海外的漢語教學。他表示﹐中國有12所大學開設了對外漢語係﹔有78個國家建立了總計305所個旨在推廣漢語的孔子學院或孔子學堂﹐ 美國有50多個﹐洛杉磯總領館領區有6個﹔在世界上的37個國家﹐設立了161個測試漢語水平的漢語托福考試(HSK)考點﹐洛杉磯總領館領區有3處。李耀昇認為﹐教師&#
