The political role of the people's liberation army 1949-1973
Full text linkThis thesis is to study the political role of the People's Liberation Army from the approach of structure and function. The framework of the thesis consists of three major parts, first, the influence of Chinese traditional political culture on, and the formation of, the political role of the PL A; second, the influence of domestic political struggles and external military conflicts on the development of the political role of the PLA; and the third, the analysis of the transition of the PLA's political role from the structure and personnel arrangements of the CCPCC Within the above-mentioned three scopes, this thesis make a thorough discussion on the following: (1) The relationship between the structure of the PRC and the formation of the PLA's political role; (2) How has ideology influenced the army's political role; (3) What is Mao's viewpoint and his influence on the development of the army's political role; (4) What is the link between the army and the party, and how has this developed; (6) What accounts for the expansion of the PLA's political functions; (7) What is the influence of political factional struggles on the PLA's political role; (8) Is it political institution or military institution that controls the recruitment of the military elite; (9) What are the disparities between the military elite in handling international conflicts and what are their political considerations; (10) What is the Party's position in the army; (11) How have the Party’s important meetings and personnel arrangements influenced the rise and fall of the PLA's political role

The Ta-T`ung Theory of Kang Yu-wei: Based on 『Ta-T`ung Shih』
No full textThe religious meaning of Kang Yu-weis Ta-t'ung theory first appeared in the preface of the 『Ta-t 'ung shih』 . In the preface there is "at the war of the China and the France, I am so impressed and angry about the people's trouble so I wrote the 『Ta-t'ung shih』 ". The war strongly influenced the organization of the theory because it started from recognizing the pain. Kang Yu-wei regarded the world as pain, that is the endless suffering. The suffering world never ends and difficult to figure out. He classified the suffering into birth, life, rule, human emotion and class-status (人生之苦, 人道之苦, 人治之苦, 人情之苦, 人所尊尙之苦). He thought the cause of suffering as the boundary like a state, a family, a nation, etc, so he insisted to remove the nine boundary of suffering in order to bring the happiness to all the human nature. All the more, he shows strong emotion to save the people from pain and Kang Yu-wei's Ta-t'ung theory in a way contains the theory of the salvation. Ta-tung theory starts off with the realistic request but it develops into the realization of the ideal salvation after the theory blends with Taoism, Mojia, Buddhism and Confucianism

Yu-Hsi Wang et al., 7 Jan. 2008. Paratypes: 5 adults, NCHUZOOL 13542, same collection data as for holotype. Description. External: Small. Dimensions 27–43 mm by 1.9–2.2 mm in x, 1.9–2.6 mm in xxx, 2.1–2.5 mm in clitellum; body cylindrical throughout, segments 55–90; 5–7 setae between male pores. Setal formula AA: AB: YY: YZ = 1.5: 1: 3: 1.75 on xxv. Prostomium, epilobic. Female pores paired on xiv. First dorsal pore at 12 / 13. Clitellum annular xiv–xvi 1 / 2; setae on xiv and xv (Fig. 3 a).

This species is named after the aboriginal tribe, the Tao Tribe (= Yami Tribe), who dwell on the island of Lanyu. The name is used as a noun in apposition. Remarks. Pithemera tao sp. nov. is similar to P. bicincta (Perrier, 1875), P. palaoensis (Ohfuchi, 1941), P. philippinensis James, Hong & Kim, 2004, P. sedgwicki sedgwicki (Benham, 1897), and P. sempoensis (Kobayashi, 1938), but can be distinguished by the spermathecal pore and spermatheca. P. bicincta, and P. philippinensis have 5 pairs of spermathecal pores at 4 / 5–8 / 9. Pithemera sedgwicki sedgwicki and P. sempoensis have 3 pairs of spermathecal pores at 5 / 6–7 / 8.

Pithemera tao has only a single spermathecal pore at 4 / 5–6 / 7.Published as part of Wang, Yu-Hsi & Shih, Hsi-Te, 2010, Earthworm fauna of Eastern Taiwan, with descriptions of two new species (Oligochaeta: Megascolecidae), pp. 52-68 in Zootaxa 2341 on pages 56-58, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.19330
Analysis of EGF signaling in healthy aging promotion in caenorhabditis elegans
No full textThe increase in longevity expectancy has been a focused issue goal of much current aging research. Many genes have been noted to modulate longevity of simple model systems, acting through distinct mechanisms. However, in principle, promotion of healthy aging of individual tissues can be accomplished without a major impact on the longevity endpoint. As such, healthspan-only genes may have been missed by genetic screens for longevity. New screens for tissue–specific betterment of aging phenotypes were anticipated to reveal a class of genes that might be manipulated for tissue-specific anti-aging outcomes. We identified two novel healthspan regulators, called HPA-1 and HPA-2 (for the high performance in old age locomotory phenotypes that their disruption confers) that delay age-associated locomotory decline when they are knocked down by RNAi or by genetic deletion. Surprisingly, hpa-1 and hpa-2 do not regulate healthspan through canonical recognized longevity pathways. Instead, the structure of HPA proteins implicated a novel function of EGF signaling in anti–aging protection, and my genetic studies supported this mechanism. Activated EGF signaling confers a positive effect on multiple aging phenotypes, acting through the downstream branch of the EGF pathway involving PLCanalysis defined the temporal and spatial benefits from EGF signaling. EGF/lin-3 ligand is expressed into late life and acts throughout life to influence healthy aging. lin-3 alternative slice variants, lin-3S and lin-3XL show healthspan promotion. Muscle and neuron are the most potent tissue for EGFR signaling on healthspan enhancement. I also identified global and tissue-specific modulators of healthy aging in the EGF pathway and identified candidate calcium-sensitive transducers of the anti-aging function of EGF signaling. Recent data in vertebrates suggest that EGF signaling might contribute to long-term maintenance. Thus, EGF signaling may exert a conserved impact on healthy aging and might be a plausible reagent for anti-aging therapies.Ph. D.Includes bibliographical referencesIncludes vitaby Shih-Hung Y
