山西绛州木版年画是山西省非物质文化遗产,历史悠久,发端于宋金,兴盛于明清,较杨柳青、朱仙镇、桃花坞年画问世均早,最早见于北宋《佛说北斗七星经》之雕版插图。随着时代的变迁,绛州木版年画逐渐进入了衰落期。

252335634_8

绛州木版年画传承人、山西新绛县文化局退休干部吴百锁怀着对木版年画的痴迷,先后投资近200万元,坚持数十年搜集、整理、保护老版、老画稿、老画卷,他曾多次走访版画老艺人,学习版画制作技艺。2007年,吴百锁创建成立了绛州木版年画研制所,专门从事绛州木版年画的收集、整理、研究、创作工作。

252335636_8

一块上乘的木版在彻底磨损前,可以印一万份年画。为了保证品质,绛州木版年画从选料到雕刻再到上色都非常讲究,原料刨平、木版雕刻、细节打磨、年画印制、描边上色……一幅年画的制作需要七八道精细工序,最简单的彩色年画在印制时也需要进行至少三次上色,全过程需要耗费吴百锁超过半个月的时间。

252335638_8

与工作中的不苟言笑形成鲜明对比,吴百锁在为参观者讲解年画知识及其背后的历史故事时总是充满热情。“我希望有更多年轻人在关注木版年画的基础上,能跟我学习这门技艺,让绛州木版年画绽放新的光辉。”吴百锁说,“只要有人肯下功夫学,我愿意免费教授所有技艺。”

据悉,云猫是十分濒危的物种。相关人士认为,在高黎贡山自然保护区发现云猫的踪迹并拍摄到清晰的活动照片,意义重大。

瑞典外交大臣马约特.瓦尔斯特罗姆说,想要和平,必须要为战争做好准备,她的意思是必须投资于研究,了解世界的军事情况。

Swedish Minister for Foreign Affairs Margot Wallström said she believed in that saying if you want peace, be prepared for war. We must invest in research.

SIPRI主任史密斯说,人们应该停下来,想一想,或许战争就可以避免。因此,他们把今年定为“反思年”。

SIPRI director Dan Smith said people should stop and think, maybe the war won’t happen if people did so. So SIPRI labelled 2016 as a year of reflection.

 

Eight topics to dominate China’s “two sessions”

STOCKHOLM, Feb. 26(Greenpost)–As the annual sessions of National People’s Congress (NPC) and Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPC), also referred as the “two sessions,” are just around the corner,  eight agendas have been laid out which can summarize the country’s policy objectives.

For the Chinese people, the two major events, coming at the starting year of China’s “13th Five-Year Plan,” carry significant weight as the country enters the decisive stage in building a moderately prosperous society in all respects.

No 1. The “13th Five-Year Plan”

China’s “13th Five-Year Plan”, a roadmap for the nation’s development from 2016 to 2020, has specifically laid out its blueprint got the next 5 years.

During the two sessions, deputies will demonstrate their strong determination to implement the five notions stressed by the plan, which include innovation, coordination, environmental protection, openness and sharing. They will tell the world the implementation approaches as well.

No. 2 Poverty reduction campaign

The policy of targeted poverty alleviation is of groundbreaking significance. Targets, enforcers and approaches of the program are to be identified during the two sessions.

No. 3 Supply-side reform

“Promoting supply-side structural reform” was first proposed by Chinese President Xi Jinping months ago. Guided by this strategy, the government will optimize China’s economic structure through reforms that include reducing overcapacity and boosting emerging industries.

Decision makers at all levels will take the two sessions as a platform to communicate experience and contribute suggestions.

No. 4 “Belt and Road” initiative

The proposal to build the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road put forward by Xi has been echoed by over 60 countries and regions along the route.

As another hot topic of this year’s two sessions, this diplomatic priority is expected to bring more win-win results.

No. 5 Possible revise on the charity law

To guide and ensure a sound development of charitable causes, the Standing Committee of the NPC has deliberated the draft of the charity law twice. The public are concerned about whether the law will be further amended during this year’s two sessions.

No. 6 Reform on the judiciary system

As most of the tasks of China’s reform on the judiciary system are expected to be completed by the end of 2017, the Chinese government hopes to improve its capability in maintaining national security and social stability.

Amid such a backdrop, the reports to be delivered by the Supreme People’s Court and the Supreme People’s Procuratorate are highly anticipated.

No. 7 Green development

Buzzwords like “APEC Blue” and “Parade Blue” have raised people’s awareness of green development.

As China’s policy to emphasize a balance among production, living environment and ecology wins popularity among the public, deputies believe that they shoulder the responsibility of addressing major environmental roadblocks including smog and water pollution.

No. 8  Institutional anti-corruption

In recent three years, China’s anti-corruption campaign has been striving to foster a system that allows zero tolerance for corruption. At the beginning of 2016, Xi stressed to “create a green political eco-system” in his New Year’s message.

The 2016 NPC and CPPCC will be a window for Chinese people to examine the “green eco-system.”

聚焦两会:两会八大看点折射中国目标

北欧绿色邮报网报道(编辑陈雪霏)--即将启幕的2016年中国全国两会,正值中国刚刚踏上“十三五”征程。中国人心目中,全面建成小康社会决胜阶段开局之年举行的两会分量格外重,八大看点标志着中国目标和中国未来。

1.“十三五”规划

“十三五”规划明确了中国未来5年的发展蓝图,代表委员的谈论,将能告诉世界他们贯彻落实“创新、协调、绿色、开放、共享”五大发展理念的意愿和方式。

  1. 扶贫攻坚战

中国提出精准扶贫、精准脱贫的新概念,颇具开创意义。中国把聚焦点尤其放在“扶持谁、谁来扶、怎么扶”上面,这将是来自全国各地的两会代表委员、特别是基层代表委员深感需要明确的事情。

  1. 供给侧改革

“着力加强供给侧结构性改革”是几个月前由中国领导人习近平首次提出的主张,中国将在这一重大创新战略指引下,进行“加法、减法一起做”的改革,进而优化中国经济结构。目前,中国各级领导者面临认识到位、主动适应、有为引领的重要任务,两会将是他们在交流讨论中深化认识、建言献策的重要平台。

4.“一带一路”

习近平倡导的“一带一路”是中国外交的重点,已受到沿线60多个国家和地区的积极响应,今年将仍然是两会热议话题。当前,“一带一路”建设已见早期收获,人们期待习近平所主张的“百花齐放的大利”进一步成为现实。

  1. 慈善法修改

中国民众期盼慈善法能够有助于引领、保障慈善事业健康发展,全国人大常委会两个月前已对草案进行了两次审议,一些重要修改内容引发社会高度关注。本次全国人大会议是否将进一步作出修改,成为人们关注的问题。

  1. 司法体制改革

中国司法体制改革的大部分任务要在今明两年完成,中国政府非常期望提升维护国家安全和社会稳定的能力水平,让人民群众尽早享有改革“获得感”。本次会议上的“两高”(最高法院和最高检察院)报告备受期待。

  1. 绿色发展

“APEC蓝”“阅兵蓝”进一步调高了中国民众对绿色发展的热望,中国政府提出“统筹生产、生活、生态三大布局”,呼应了民意。两会代表委员普遍认为他们担当着推动治理雾霾、污水等环境污染问题的重任。

  1. 制度反腐

中国领导人习近平在2016年新年贺词中提出“着力营造政治上的绿水青山”,近3年来的反腐败斗争正着力构建不敢腐、不能腐、不想腐的体制机制。今年的两会会风、将是民众近距离感受、检验这种“绿水青山”的窗口。(人民日报记者 孙天仁  张梦旭)

张红霞的口琴《月亮代表我的心》吸引了小阿曼达认真地仰脖看。

陈雪霏说,中欧文化协会成立以来,先后为华人妇女组织瑜伽班,拉丁舞班,徒步组,舞蹈组和卡拉OK组,大大丰富了参加者的业余生活,增进了了解和友谊。

猴年春节前夕,借拉丁舞第一位老师罗老师访问瑞典之机,部分会员聚会一次,大家跳舞,唱歌,吃火锅,好不热闹!

今天,值此中国元宵节之机,大家再次聚会,而且是以包饺子和包汤圆的形式来聚会。大家自己动手,其乐融融。

功夫大师刑善帮着和面,副会长丹妮和曹霞切菜,丽丽和梁爽拌凉菜。一大部分人擀皮,一大部分人包饺子。米亚拌馅儿,周虹切菜。孙凯自带材料为大家做汤圆儿。

在这个过程中不会包饺子的可以学习包饺子,不会做汤圆儿的可以学做汤圆儿。平时周日组织大家徒步的徒步组组长周玉梅忙前忙后帮着煮饺子。

沐兰为大家准备了灯谜,张红霞为大家吹了口琴,月亮代表我的心。乌日娜为大家跳了蒙古舞,丽丽(Lily)的小女儿唱了《小星星》。

李慧敏和丹妮跳了舞蹈。陈雪霏唱完《跟我去草原吧》,孙凯唱了《山楂树》,刘芳分别用粤语和汉语唱了一首邓丽君的《漫步人生路》。吴云很专业地唱了《红灯记》里的铁梅选段。她还和陈雪霏配合唱了沙家浜里《智斗》的片断。

Gaia负责照照片,冯硕为大家提供的地方,米亚为大家提供的水果。真是每个人都出一点儿力,最后,感觉这里有我也有你。

原来计划三四个小时的活动,结果搞到了四五个小时。大家都很开心。

“我们的元宵节活动之一,包饺子,瞧瞧我们的战果,猪肉芹菜!那叫一个香!包饺子庆元宵,蒙古舞藏族舞接着上,猜灯谜俩语种,欢声笑语热情洋溢,真诚祝福此起彼伏,这就是我们今年在瑞典元宵节的小夜曲!” 沐兰评论到。

“非常有意义的一次聚会,特别感谢,即使撑得不行也不愿意省一口,真正的美食,期待下次的饺子宴。” 孙凯评论。

有了这次包饺子的经验,协会正在筹划4月份的年会和与北欧绿色邮报网和瑞典专业外国记者协会的大联欢!
