Includes bibliographical references (p. 161-167).
Methane (CH 4 ), nitrous oxide (N20) and sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) are powerful greenhouse gases with global budgets that are well-known but regional distributions that are not adequately constrained for the purposes of mitigation and policy initiatives. Quantifying emissions using inverse approaches at the national scale requires measurements that specifically target the region of interest. Primarily due to the lack of atmospheric measurements from the region, emissions estimates of these greenhouse gases from India have largely been missing. New in situ measurements of atmospheric mole fractions from a Himalayan station in Darjeeling, India (27.03'N, 88.26'E, 2200 meters above sea level) have been collected from December 2011 for CH4 and March 2012 for N20 and SF6 to February 2013 using high-precision instrumentation that is linked to the Advanced Global Atmospheric Gases Experiment (AGAGE). These measurements comprise the first high-frequency dataset of these gases collected in India and are used for measurement-based assessment of emissions. Several features are identified. In SF6 , the signal associated with Northern Hemispheric background is typically present. CH4 and N20 mole fractions are almost always enhanced over the background, suggesting strong regional sources. Additionally, a diurnal signal resulting from thermally driven winds is seasonally present. A particle dispersion model is used to track 'air histories' of measurements, quantifying the sensitivity of concentrations at Darjeeling to surface emissions. The effect of topography on the derived air histories is investigated to test the robustness of the model in simulating transport in this complex environment. The newly acquired data set is used to investigate the ability of the model to reproduce signals that stem from the mesoscale diurnal winds. The sensitivities of meteorological resolution and particle release height are investigated to better quantify some of the uncertainties associated with this chemical transport model. A Quasi-Newton inverse method is used to estimate emissions at monthly resolution. CH4 , N20 and SF6 emissions from India are found to be 44.3% Tg yr- 1, 825 1045/707 GgN yr- 1 and 221 241/205 kton yr-', respectively. Significant uncertainty reduction is seen on emissions from India during the summer when the monsoon results in high sensitivity over the subcontinent.

Cayre, Emilie. "La monumentalisation des portes et accès en Asie Mineure à l'époque romaine." Thesis, Bordeaux 3, 2013. http://www.theses.fr/2013BOR30041.
Full textAbstract:
Cette thèse a pour objet l'architecture de passage qui ponctuait le parcours d'un visiteur ou d'un citoyen au sein du paysage urbain micrasiatique : propylées, portes urbaines et arcs sur rue. Notre travail portait sur les cités d'Asie Mineure, sans cadre géographique restrictif, afin d'obtenir une vision globale du phénomène étudié. L'étude a été partagée en deux grands ensembles : les propylées d'un côté et les portes urbaines et arcs sur rue d'un autre. Les propylées constituaient les entrées monumentales de sanctuaires, agoras, gymnases et bouleutérions. Notre étude comprend les propylées depuis l'époque classique jusqu'à l'époque romaine. Les propylées classiques constituaient essentiellement les entrées monumentales des grands sanctuaires-terrasses hécatomnides de Carie. A l'époque hellénistique, les propylées se sont multipliés et se trouvaient désormais en contextes cultuels et profanes. Les propylées romains représentaient pour la plupart des entrées monumentales rajoutées à des complexes préexistants, peu appartenaient à un nouveau complexe. Nous trouvons des propylées qui reprenaient des formules de l'époque hellénistique, des propylées à façade monumentale édiculée, des propylées qui adoptaient la forme de l'arc romain et enfin des propylées qui reprenaient la forme des salles impériales. Les portes urbaines totalement dépourvues de tout caractère défensif se sont développées grâce au climat de sécurité de la Pax Romana. Elles marquaient la séparation entre l'intérieur et l'extérieur de la ville, constituaient un véritable repère topographique et, comme la première image que le visiteur avait de la ville, elles annonçaient la splendeur de la ville et projetaient la valeur de l'urbanistas. Ces portes urbaines étaient soit de nouvelles portes insérées dans les anciens remparts, soit libres de tout rempart, soit un réaménagement des anciennes portes. Les arcs sur rue étaient construits sur une rue à colonnades ou à un carrefour pour des raisons urbanistiques et organiques et esthétiques. Tout en embellissant un parcours, ils ponctuaient et articulaient celui-ci et servaient aussi de points de repère. Leurs façades, richement décorées, participaient à l'embellissement et à l'animation des paysages urbains. Ces arcs apparaissaient comme une composante d'un programme urbanistique. Certains arcs étaient honorifiques ou commémoratifs. A l'époque romaine, l'architecture de passage reflétait les changements de la vie politique et de la structure sociale. L'autoreprésentation, la propagande impériale et la vive concurrence entre les cités vont jouer un rôle important dans la conception de ces monuments. Leur richesse et leur magnificence devaient impressionner les visiteurs et donc augmenter l'image reflétée par la cité de sa puissance et de sa gloire.Ils participaient donc à l'ornementation de la citéThis thesis deals with the architecture of passage that punctuate the course of a visitor or a citizen in the urban landscape of Asia Minor : propylaea, city-gates and arches on street. Our work focused on the cities of Asia Minor with no geographical limits in order to provide an overall view of the phenomenon. This study was divided into two major groups : the propylaea on the one hand and city-gates and arches on street on the other hand. The propylaea were the monumental entrances to shrines, agorai, gymnasiums and bouleuteria. Our study includes the propylaea from the classical period to the Roman era. Classical propylaea were mainly the monumental entrances to the major hecatomnid's shrines-terraces of Caria. In the Hellenistic period, the propylaea multiplied and tuned into religious and secular backgrounds. Most Roman propylaea made up monumental entrances added to existing complexes, few being part of a new one. We find some propylaea that went back over formulas of the Hellenistic period, others with monumental edicular façade, those in the form of the a Roman arch and finally the propylaea reproducing the form of "Marmorsaal". City-gates, that were completely devoid of any defensive features, developed in the peaceful period of the Pax Romana. They marked the boundary between the inside and the outside of the city, were a real topographical landmark and, as the first glimpse of the city for the visitors, heralded its splendor and highlighted the value of the urbanitas. These city-gates were either new city-gates inserted into the ancient city-walls, free of any city-walls, or old city-gates rearranged. The street arches were built on a colonnaded street or at a crossroads for urban, organic and aesthetic reasons. While beautifying a course, they structured and punctuated it as well as serving as landmarks. Their richly decorated facades participated in the beautification and animation of the urban landscape. These arches appear as a component of an urban program. Some of them were honorific or commemorative. In Roman times, the architecture of passage reflected changes in the political life and social structure. The self-representation, the imperial propaganda and the fierce competition between cities would play a major part in the designing of these monuments. Their richness and splendor must have impressed visitors and thus enhanced the city's power and glory picture. They participated in its ornamentation

Chang, Hung. "Cross-strait relations in the process of economic integration : same game, but different logic." Thesis, University of Warwick, 2017. http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/91137/.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis provides a theoretical and empirical examination of the contentious “sovereignty” dispute between Taiwan and China, especially following the signing of the Cross-Strait Economic Cooperation Framework Agreement (ECFA) in 2010. Distinctive from many contemporary studies of cross-Strait relations, this research analyzes Beijing’s and Taipei’s political agendas regarding sovereignty in the broader context of East Asian economic integration, as the ECFA is in fact the byproduct of their regional strategies. Commercial diplomacy and interdependence theory constitute the theoretical framework of this thesis. Moreover, this thesis employs various definitions of sovereignty in order to evaluate the extent to which China has impacted upon Taiwan’s sovereignty in the process of economic integration. By employing document analysis and elite interview methodologies, this thesis finds that Taipei has a limited ability to protect its sovereignty from China’s commercial diplomacy in the post-ECFA era. This outcome can be explained by Beijing’s efforts to marginalize Taiwan during the construction of East Asian regionalism, which has driven Taipei to shift its strategy from confrontation to cooperation with Beijing so as to secure its economic and sovereignty interests. To date, economic integration features centrally in Taiwan’s new Mainland policy. This has increased the degree of Taiwan’s economic dependence on China, which gives greater scope for Beijing to wield commercial diplomacy to infringe upon Taiwan’s domestic, functional, and de jure sovereignty. This thesis makes two overall contributions. The most significant contribution of this thesis is its pioneering research approach, which analyzes how China and Taiwan reconcile their economic interests and sovereignty concerns through the lens of commercial diplomacy. Furthermore, by categorizing sovereignty according to its different aspects, this thesis also contributes to the understanding of the effectiveness of China’s commercial diplomacy in furthering its sovereignty interests with regards to Taiwan.

Full textAbstract:
This paper is about locating the meaning of a series of games known as the Dark Souls series in relation to contemporary social conditions in Japan. I argue that the game should be thought of as an emblem of the current cultural zeitgeist, in a similar way one might identify something like Jack Kerouac’s The Dharma Bums as an emblem of the counter cultural 60s. I argue that the Dark Souls series expresses in allegorical form an anxiety about living in a time where the meaning of our everyday actions and even society itself has become significantly destabilized. It does this through a fractured approach to story-telling, that is interspersed with Buddhist metaphysics and wrapped up in macabre, gothic aesthetic depicting the last gasping breath of a once great kingdom. This expression of contemporary social anxiety is connected to the discourse of postmodernity in Japan. Through looking at these games as a feedback loop between text, environment and ludic system, I connect the main conceptual motifs that structure the games as a whole with Osawa Masachi’s concept of the post-fictional era and Hiroki Azuma’s definition of the otaku.

Full textAbstract:
The New Great Game is a geopolitical competition between regional stakeholders over energy resources in Central Asia. The author seeks to use the expected utility voting model based on Black's median voter theorem for forecasting the New Great Game in Central Asia. To judge the external validity of the voting model, the author uses data from the Correlates of War project data set, to formulate three distinct models based only on the numbers in 1992 and 1993. Capabilities and alliance data were used to develop balance of power positions and compare the outcome of 100 simulations to the actual outcome in 2000 based on Correlates of War project data. This allows us to judge whether the emergence of Russia's weak advantage as well as the continuation of the competition in the New Great Game as of 2000 could have been predicted based on what was known in 1992 and 1993. By using only one year's data to forecast the New Great Game, we are able to eliminate historical and researcher bias and judge the applicability of the model in global policy and strategic analysis.Ph.D.

Full textAbstract:
The Qing conquest of 'Xinjiang' ('New Dominion' or 'New Territory') in 1759 proved to be a watershed development in the complex and often ambiguous relation between China and the amorphous Xiyu or 'Western Regions' that had lay 'beyond the pale' of Han Chinese civilisation since the Han (206 BCE-220 CE) and Tang (618-907) dynasties. The Qing destruction of the Mongol Zunghar state in the process of conquering 'Xinjiang' brought to a close the era of the dominance of the steppe nomadic-pastoralist world of Inner Asia over sedentary and agricultural China that had existed since at least 300 BCE with the expansion of the Xiongnu. Immediately following the conquest, as chapter two shall demonstrate, the over-arching goal of Qing rule in the region was to segregate Xinjiang from the Chinese regions of the empire. Yet, at the beginning of the 21st century the government of the People's Republic of China (PRC) maintains that the 'Xinjiang Uighur Autonomous Region' (XUAR) is, and has been throughout recorded history, an 'integral' province of China. This thesis is thus focused on the evolution of the Chinese state's perception of Xinjiang as a dependent appendage in the late 18th century to that of an 'integral' province at the beginning of the 21st century. As such there are two key questions that are the focus of the thesis. First, how - by what processes, means and strategies - did Xinjiang arrive at its contemporary position as a province of the PRC? Second, how has this process impacted on China's 'foreign policy' along its western continental frontiers since the Qing conquest? The thesis is therefore not simply focused upon a discrete period or aspect of the historical development of China's interactions with Xinjiang, but rather an encompassing exploration of the processes that have resulted in China's contemporary dominance in the region. Two encompassing and related themes flow from these questions regarding the Chinese state's response to the dilemmas posed by the rule of Xinjiang. The first stems from the recognition that the present government of China's claims to the 'Chinese-ness' of Xinjiang are more than simply a statement of fact or an attempted legitimisation of current political realities. The statement that Xinjiang is an 'integral' province of the PRC, although indeed a statement of contemporary political reality, is also a profound statement of intent by the Chinese state. It is in fact one manifestation of an over-arching theme of integration and assimilation within the state's perceptions of Xinjiang across the 1759-2004 period. The second theme stems from the question as to how the processes associated with the first theme of integration and assimilation impacted upon the Chinese state's conception of its relation to those regions beyond its orbit. Xinjiang throughout most of Chinese history has been perceived as a 'frontier' region from which non-Chinese influences have entered and at times threatened the North China plain 'heartland' of Han civilisation. This is essentially a theme of confrontation between or opposition of 'external' to Chinese influences. The relationship between these two themes across the 1759-2004 period has been one of 'permanent provocation' whereby their interaction has produced mutual continuity and contestation. The Chinese state's goal of integration, and the concrete strategies and techniques employed in Xinjiang to attain it, have required the continued operation and vitality of opposing tendencies and dynamics. This process has provided (and continues to provide) both impetus and legitimation, in the perception of the state, for the exercise of state power in Xinjiang. Yet, as will become evident in the proceeding chapters, this interaction has not developed along a constant trajectory. Rather, the process has been characterised by fluctuations in the state's commitment to the goal of integration and in its ability to implement appropriate strategies with which to achieve integration. The thesis will thus argue that from the early 19th century onward the goal of integration became embedded in the state's perception of the 'correct' relation between itself and Xinjiang. Moreover, across the 1759-2004 period the notion of integration has evolved to become both the end and means of state action in Xinjiang.

Full textAbstract:
This literature review analyses and discusses different theories and results regarding impact of volcanic eruptions on climate change in Earth's history. Present global warming has been attributed to anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases, mainly carbon dioxide, however changes in global temperatures have occurred before the onset of anthropogenic emissions. Certain prehistoric climate changes are thought to be caused by emissions of volcanic gases to the atmosphere. Many studies have investigated the connection between volcanic events and subsequent changes in global temperatures. A majority have concluded that volcanic sulfur dioxide is the main direct and indirect climate forcing gas influencing temperatures over time. Increased volcanic activity over the last 15 years is thought to be an inhibiting factor on present global warming. This is supported by evidence of past volcanic events preceding global cooling and warming periods during Holocene and prehistoric times. Further, there are indications that factors such as geographical position, season, gas composition, magnitude and duration of an eruption influences the extent of the climate forcing.Records of climate such as ice cores and tree growth rings and isotopic characterization have made it possible to identify volcano eruptions over time and determine the identity of the erupting volcano. Past and present data from these can be used to gain a better understanding of past climate changes as well as making predictions about future changes as a result volcanic eruptions. However, accuracy regarding temporal and spatial resolution of these records is of great importance for the validity of the results.

L'augmentation de l'intérêt concernant la part des réservoirs hydroélectrique dans l'augmentation de la concentration atmosphérique des Gaz à Effet de Serre (GES) a amené à mesurer les émissions nettes d'un réservoir hydroélectrique, Nam Theun 2 (NT2) dans la région subtropicale de la République Démocratique Populaire du Laos, Asie. Ce travail est la premiêre évaluation de l'empreinte carbone des GES (c'est à dire : les émissions après ennoiement moins les émissions avant ennoiement) en relation avec la création d'un réservoir hydroélectrique. C'est le résultat d'une étude à grande échelle qui s'est déroulée pendant cinq ans (2008-2012). Nous avons tout d'abord quantifié les sources et les puits majeurs des GES des composants terrestres et aquatiques du paysage avant ennoiement (Mai 2008). Ensuite, à partir d'Avril 2009, cette étude similaire a été réalisée au niveau du réservoir, sa zone de marnage et son aval. C'est en Octobre 2009 que le réservoir hydroélectrique NT2 a, pour la première fois, atteint son niveau maximal et c'est huit mois plus tard, en Mars 2010, que les turbines ont fonctionnées pour la première fois. En se basant sur un suivi bimensuel et sur cinq missions de terrain couvrant toutes les saisons, les émissions des principaux GES (c'est à dire l'oxyde nitreux (N2O), le méthane (CH4) et le dioxyde de carbone (CO2)) ont été mesurées d'Avril 2009 à Décembre 2011. Les émissions ont été déterminées à la surface du réservoir (flux diffusifs et ébullitifs) ainsi que dans les sols de la zone de marnage, qui peut atteindre 370 km2 pour une surface totale de réservoir de 450 km2The identification and accurate quantification of sinks or sources of GHG has become a key challenge for scientists and policy makers groups working on climate change or global warming. The creation of a hydro-reservoir while damming a river for power generation converts the terrestrial ecosystems into aquatic ecosystem and subsequently decomposition of flooded terrestrial soil organic matter stimulates GHG productions and thereby emissions to atmosphere. Tropical or subtropical hydroelectric reservoirs are more significant sources of GHG than boreal or temperate one. The number of hydroelectric reservoirs continues to increase at fast pace specially in the tropical or sub-tropical regions which still hold significant amount of hydropower resources to be exploited. In this context, we study the subtropical hydroelectric Nam Theun 2 (NT2) Reservoir, a complex-structuraldesigned, created on the Nam Theun River in Laos PDR. The main aims of our study are to: (1) Study the GHG dynamics (CH4, N2O and CO2) in the reservoir and in the whole area of influence (downstream and drawdown areas), (2) explore the effectiveness of different methodology (eddy covariance, floating chamber, submerged funnel and thin boundary layer) to assess of GHG emission from a hydroelectric reservoir, (3) determine the environmental controls on the different emission terms; (4) attempt to determine the first net GHG budget of a subtropical hydroelectric reservoir

The Central Asia region, that once used to be condemned for a period of time, is now a golden target of the world leaders because of its natural resources so essential for the world. This attempt to get the access to important energies could cause worries about The New great game in Central Asia to many people. The aim of this thesis is to compare the power leadership of four world leaders, Russia, China, the USA and the EU, based on their hard and soft power in Central Asia region and to investigate the possible clash of interests of these countries quoting The New great game, Huntington's theory of Clash of civilisations and Brzezinski's Great Chessboard. At the very end of the theses there is an agreement of their interests, which would bring the answer to the negative assumptions and worries about the development of competition of the great powers in Central Asia.

Abstract Developments of “Shooting Sport” have popularized through out the world. It was included in the first modern Olympic Games in 1896. The Asia Games also added shooting as one of the contests from 1954. Since 1960, Mainland China has put great emphasis on developments of shooting sport. At present, four of the seventeen Olympic Games shooting contests records (air pistol men and women, sport pistol women, and ten meter running target men) were set by the CHN delegation. However, due to the control of firearms and only a small number of participants, the progress of shooting sport in ROC is very limited. Thus, the PRC shooting delegation had achieved records that surpassed our own over the years, and it would be a great task to be able to catch up with them. This report, “Shooting Sport in Olympic Games and Asia Games: Air Pistol and Sport Pistol”, is a collection of the author’s twenty-two years experiences as both contestant and trainer. It also includes the sports science knowledge, which the author acquired from two-year master program studies, and researches regarding the ROC shooting contestants and other relative training information both domestically and internationally. It is hoped that this report would help to bring about an elevation in our shooters’ abilities so as to accomplish the goals of winning in Asia Games and Olympic Games. The paper consists of the following seven chapters: 1. Introduction: it gives grief insight into the genesis of shooting sport and its domestic and international developments, and a synopsis of Olympic Games and Asia Zone Games contests. An analysis of air pistol and sport pistol results in the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney and ROC shooters is made and compared so that readers can discern ROC shooting standard among other countries and use it as a reference to target management. 2. Introduction of Rules: it mainly explains specifications of air pistol and sport pistol (i.e. pistol model, bullets, and target papers), and describes a shooting range and its facilities. Future development trends of these two contests are also discussed in this chapter. 3. Basic Techniques of Pistol Shooting: it investigates the characteristics of shooting sport, and explains basic techniques of pistol shooting comprehensively. 4. Instructions in Individual Techniques: this chapter emphasizes on instructions in individual techniques of air pistol and sport pistol.

Abstract With the basic needs of modern society largely taken care of， entertainment has risen as an important new industry sector. Statistics published by the Institute for Information Technology’s Market Intelligence Center (MIC) show that, while the movie and music industries are already multi-million dollar industries, it was the rise of the game industry that triggered society’s unwitting entry into the digital content age. With advance of technologies related to the Internet, the communications and semiconductor industries, and consumer electronics, most products have begun incorporating entertainment elements. Furthermore, the realism of modern game software has already been adapted to train professional pilots. The growing demands on software to exploit the full potential of the latest semiconductor and electronics technologies indicate the high level of realism already present in gaming content. However, the now extensive game software industry has been the source of various social problems, which have, in turn, led game content to lose its originality and creativity. This is a key problem facing the game industry and a new challenge for game designers. In addition to artistic design and programming sophistication, “playability” is a factor critical to the quality and repetitive-play potential of a game. This study selected ten highly popular games in order to analyze what it was about these games that made them such a success. Concurrently, a questionnaire was used to single out the key gaming elements sought after by game players. The scope of this research was limited to East Asia’s game industry (specifically, the four markets of Korea, Japan, China and Taiwan) and used the results of our abovementioned analysis to first explore and define differences between the game industries of these four markets and then identify game qualities that should be incorporated into a future “Taiwan game” brand image. Analysis of the literature and personal interviews were also used to explore discrepancies between practical experience and theory. The expected results of this research include: 1) identification of current trends in Taiwan’s game industry; 2) incorporation of games into the highest cultural levels; 3) identification of other items of popular culture that can also have potentially positive impacts upon society. Key Words: Games, digital entertainment, brand

This research aims to investigate the construction of medal winning in Chinese Taipei from 1998~2006, comparing to the National Olympic Committee (NOC) in the second group. It further analyzes the continuous development of competitive sports in Chinese Taipei. Literature analysis is used in this research. The results show that Chinese Taipei’s performance has seriously shrunk, receiving fewer medals gradually. Chinese Taipei won nine gold medals in archery, baseball, bowling, billiards, golf, karate, soft tennis, taekwondo and tennis, followed by medals in basketball, rugby, softball and table tennis. In addition, Chinese Taipei won most medals in the skill classification, with accuracy, grapple antagonism and net-separation antagonism being the best strengths. Medal winning has highest ratio in “non economical” and least ratio in “most economical” category, which indicates that the training lacks economic efficiency. Moreover, there are more female medalists then male medalists. In comparison with National Olympic Committee (NOC) in the second group, Chinese Taipei performed best in terms of “accuracy” in the skill classification. Numbers of male and female medalists in Chinese Taipei are about the same ratio compare to other countries. As for the possibility of consecutive medal winning in Chinese Taipei are archery, baseball, basketball (women), billiards (pool 8 ball and pool 9 ball), golf, karate, shooting (trap), soft tennis, softball, table tennis, taekwondo, tennis and cycling-site race (speed classification), a total of 13 events.

Double of table tennis is one of the hopes that we can win the Asian game. But now in Taiwan, our new double of table tennis’s performance is not well. The study is going to research for Chiang peng-lung and Chuan Chih-Yuan integrated technical performances in present stage. We hope to find the overcoming strategy by using scientific ways, and collect the integrated analysis of each technical and tactics to improve strength of double of table tennis in Taiwan and achieve the purpose of getting the gold. The research collect Chiang peng-lung and Chuan Chih-Yuan’s technical and tactics join the international games recently. Based on table tennis fundamental technical characteristic, we could divide the main techniques into serve attack phase, double cutting phase, pushing phase, and mutual attack phase. We watch the video to record every kind of technique form the table tennis record sheet. From a point of view to actual combat and enter the data of each attack and defend technique ability, the receive data use the PC computer, SPSS for Windows soft of histogram and analyze by using the gray connection analysis. Set each the histogram test outstanding level α=0.5. The results are: (1) Chiang peng-lung and Chuan Chih-Yuan integrated technical performances in present stage: The highest scores in the item of serve attack phase are forehand side service, forehand side drive and backhand side poke attack. But forehand side double cut, forehand side attached and backhand side attacked ones lose more scores in the serve attack phase technique. The highest scores in the item of receive attack phase are forehand side double cut, forehand side poke attack and forehand side drive. But forehand side poke attack, forehand side drive and forehand side double cut lose more scores in the receive attack phase technique. In the double cut phase, forehand side drive phase, backhand side double cut, and backhand side drive gains more scores: But forehand/backhand side drive and backhand side push also lose much scores. In pushing phase, forehand/backhand side push, backhand side drive gains more scores .But forehand side drive, backhand side push and backhand side drive lose more scores. In mutual attack phase, backhand side drive and forehand side mutual attack gains more scores. But forehand side mutual attack and backhand drive lose many score. (2) By stepwise regression analysis, we could find the technical items which affect the score performances in present games are forehand side serve attack phase(X1), forehand side receive attack phase(X3), backhand side pushing phase (X8), forehand side double cutting phase(X5), backhand side receive attack phase (X4), backhand side double cutting phase(X6), forehand side pushing phase(X7), backhand side serve attack phase(X2), forehand side mutual attack phase (X9), backhand side mutual attack phase(X10). So we can know the actively performance of third board’s serve attack phase and forth board’s receive attack phase affects Chiang peng-lung and Chuan Chih-Yuan game results a lot. We need to enhance and keep in a planned way. Performances on forehand/backhand side mutual attack phase are not good. We have to make improve to break through the choke point.(3) From this study, we can find in each technical & tactics performance. Chuan Chih-Yuan is better than Chiang peng-lung. But double of table tennis is two person’s game, tacit agreement and tactics are very important. Only they help each other, developing individual special skills and supplementing shortcoming. That is, they can bring talent in double table tennis and win the game.

Avec la romanisation à grande échelle pendant le Haut-Empire, les Romains ont propagé leur culture dans tout le bassin méditerranéen. Les jeux de gladiateurs ont été en Asie Mineure un apport important à la société romaine instaurée en milieu grec. Les théâtres hellénistiques ont été modifiés pour accueillir ces nouveaux divertissements, typiquement romains. Il est question de tout ce qui entoure ces endroits et les gladiateurs grecs qui les ont massivement fréquentés pendant les trois premiers siècles de notre ère, également de ces combattants grecs à travers les spectacles, les festivals et le culte impérial.
Quatre cités sont étudiées dans cette optique : Éphèse, Aphrodisias, Attaleia, Side. Nous pouvons ainsi analyser les développements de ce phénomène autant dans les grands que les petites villes.With full scale Romanization during the early days of the Empire, the Romans propagated their culture all across the Mediterranean region. Gladiatorial games were in Asia Minor a significant feature of the Roman culture implanted amid the Greek population. The Hellenistic theaters were modified to accommodate this new Roman entertainment. This contribution is about all that surrounds these places and the Greek gladiators who fought in them during the first three centuries of our era ; it explores those Greek warriors in spectacle, festival and imperial cult. Four cities are studied : Ephesos, Aphrodisias, Attaleia and Side. The choice of these examples, it is hoped, will allow a better understanding of the development of this phenomenon in big urban centers as well as in smaller cities.

This study explores the conflict causes and decision-making games in cross-strait interaction since Taiwan started using the name ‘Chinese Taipei’ in major international sports competitions organized by the China. Taiwan started using the name of Chinese Taipei after signing of both the Olympic Formula in 1981 and the Olympic Committee’s Agreement in Hong Kong in 1989. Taiwan has since participated major international sports competitions, such as the 11th Asian Games Beijing in 1990, the Beijing 2008 Summer Olympics and the 16th Asian Games Guangzhou 2010. This study uses methods of historical research, literature review and case studies to collect/analyze evidence on documents such as academic literatures, government public newspapers, websites and papers from official institutions on both sides and so on. The study suggests that the sources of a majority of cross-strait conflicts have to do with delegation names, flags and order of approach into the stadiums. Conflicts have been seen to persist, even after several tournaments of cross-strait ‘interactions’. From the actions and decision-making by both sides in ‘the moment’, the study discovers that the cross-strait relationship is slowly shifting from a ‘zero-sum game’ to cooperation. However, there looms a fear of betrayal, as in ‘the prisoner’s dilemma’. The study concludes that the majority of the cross-strait conflicts are due to sovereignty issues. Because both governments can make effective decisions, these types of conflicts can be solved through negotiation and arbitration to mediate the relationship between Taiwan and China. Comparing decision making patterns from both sides, the study discovered that both parties’ decisions are mutually affective. When conflicts arise regarding sovereignty, the two sides present uncooperative tendencies. Although in cases of minor controversy, the two sides show more cooperative tendencies. Finally, the study found that the role of the International Olympic Committee is an important factor in maintaining the game structure on both sides.

The progression of technology has led to the development of social media. The ways of message transmission have been changed tremendously. Many sports management related researches discussed about the relationship between social media and sport organization, athletes, clubs, league, etc., but only few of them included the usage of social media in sport organization of Asian and Olympics Games. This study adopted case study method through in-depth interviews to analyzed the social media usage in four sport organizations (Chinese Taipei Ice Hockey Federation, Chinese Taipei Tennis Federation, Chinese Taipei Basketball Association and Chinese Taipei Baseball Association). Analysis included social media usage, management strategy and future prospects by each organization. Furthermore, this study compared individual associations in different terms. This study presented a way for sport association of Asian and Olympics Games establishes relationships with relevant stakeholders through social media and the presentation of internal business aspects. This study found that the sport associations of Asian and Olympics Games lack of strong motivation of operating social media. Also, all of the associations are shortage in human and financial resources to progress social media development. Most associations used one-way communication mode to disseminate information which neglected the feature of social media. Although internet is one of the best channel for non-profit organizations to gain specific intentions; there is lack of interaction between sport associations and the audience on social media platform. Therefore, this study suggests sport associations should increase interaction message types and two-way communication model. Also, organization should established a solid social media management plan for target audience and stakeholder, it may build a positive public image and strengthen public relationship.

This study looks at the popular Taiwan newspapers and their coverage of the 1998 Asian Games in Bangkok, Thailand. The focus of this study is to analyze the construct and combination of the text. This analysis will be done by utilizing the following four questions: 1. What is the structure of the narrative found in the text? 2. What type of metaphor utilized in the text ? 3. How is fact analysis used to bias the tone of the text? 4. How are time elements used within the text? The results of of these four questions were concluded as follows: 1. Narrative Analysis -- Through this analysis two issues arose. The first concerns how the text narrative represents the R.O.C. representatives pursuit of the gold medal. The second concerns how the narrative text represents the setting''s atmosphere. The first one can be divided into 14 steps all of the steps being connected to each other and works as a series. The second part can be divided into 7 steps that focus on building the atmosphere such as nervousness, business, worry, opposition, and ceremony. 2. Metaphor Analysis -- Through the metaphor analysis the context of the report can be categorized into 18 different areas. Each area is divided into a main metaphor and a sub-metaphore. Each of these 18 metaphors represent four kinds of situations: a) sometimes opposing metaphors are found in a single text and will interact with each other; b) a metaphor for war is found in every article; c) metaphors that reflect society''s economic situation. These metaphors fit into two categories. The first are those that relate to the stock market and the second are those that benefits gained through winning, d) metaphors that work to put new life into the sport. 3. Factual and Unfactual Language Analysis -- This analysis shows that it is common for factual and unfactual language to exist in the same text. Sporting reports attempt to use language that is most commonly found in literature. These reports use the six questions; who, what, when, where, why, how. It is common for reports containing factual and unfactual language to use Chinese with occasional Taiwanese added. 4. Time Element Analysis -- Through the time element analysis it is found that report texts contain an abundance time words. These time words construct the games time and space. They include the time of events, natural setting, movement, history, the clock, and records. Scientific time elements and the time of the environment in which humans exist are found in the reports text. Time elements in a report text are affected by the bias of the author. The author Has freedom to choose what elements are included and what are left out. The author can also bias the report through the reorganization of time elements to fit their purposes. This relates to the time elements of the narrative. The content of the report will always show the past, present, and future. In this way the reader can experience the depth of the history of the sport. The graph in the diagram shows this interaction of space and time. The story of the gold medal winner shows how the time is extended in this situation.

Place Location Knowledge (PLK) is essential for Geography Learning and Geographical literacy because it can help learners build up authentic geography knowledge. In order to achieve this goal, traditional geography teaching principle applies blank map, which only improves students’ memorization of coordinates instead of their spatial thinking. The purpose of the study is to improve the traditional teaching principle with” The Great Pilot”, a digital game which integrates Adobe Flash, ASP, Google Map and provides students an on-line platform to promote their PLK. The game targets the knowledge about countries in Asia. It includes three parts – “Fly To The Global Village,” a jigsaw puzzle, ”International Traveling Is Fun, ” a Google Map interactive game and “Crazy Ground Service,” a question game. Each part has three levels based on difficulties. In order to evaluate the efficacy, the researcher chose two schools in Taoyuan County as samples. One is a junior high school and the other is a high school. Students should play the game with Asia PLK pre-and post-tests and users’ satisfaction survey. All their answers were under Pearson Correlation Analysis. The results show that “The Great Pilot” can improve students’ PLK of nation. It points out a relationship between economy development, print media and students’ PLK. Besides, the comparative distance in Taiwan is related to students’ spatial thinking. In addition, there is no strong relationship between the size of the state and politic stability. The result also shows that students’ knowledge about North Asia is better. After playing the game, students felt enriched and glad to take this game as a supplemental learning tool. This study is expected to be a reference material for geography teachers.

With the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, new independent countries emerged on the political map of the world. Among them were five Central Asian countries Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan. Three of them Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan were rich in oil and gas reserves. The world community has paid attention to the newly independent Central Asian countries because of their rich natural reserves and strategic location. Such great powers as the United States, Russia, China, and European Union have entered into a competition over the energy resources of the region. And this competition is getting tenser as the world energy reserves shrinks, prices for oil and gas increases. This paper intends to examine a “New Great Game’s one aspect – the competition for the Central Asian energy resources. Is this New Great Game all about competition of great powers for the Central Asian energy resources? If so, how important the Central Asian energy resources are? This paper argues that the great powers consider acquiring more control over Central Asian energy resources would provide them better positions and terms in the New Great Game. The Central Asian countries consider their energy resources as a warrantor of their economic development and one of the tools of strengthening newly gained independence. Thus, gaining more control over the Central Asian energy resources is likely to provide any power leverage over the Central Asian region. Recent energy related agreements and deals between the great powers and the Central Asian states shows us that nowadays the New Great Game is mainly stipulated by the energy resources of the region.

The main research topic is “The Investigation and Study of TV sports news — Sample of Busan Asian Games 2002”; research objectives including different television media in Taiwan. The contents of the research contain “content analysis”, “viewing rate”, and “in-depth interview”. This research results the following statements: 1. Content: TV sports news is usually scheduled at the end of news reports. As the political, economic, and social news compose the main parts of news report, sports news only occupies a short part and some less-popular sports are seldom reported. 2. News Production: Sports news is limited to facts such as source, space, and timing. Copyright and satellite equipments also influence the final version of the sports news. 3. The value of sports news mainly bases on “popularity”, “unpredictability”, and “policy”; “market” and “profit” are the most important guidelines for sports news editing and reporting.
