Extra-R-DAY01-05
7.27-7.31

DAY01-7.27

Why do some writers use pseudonyms? (3’08’’)
Hook: J.K. Rowling win a new writing prize under the name “Robert Galbraith”.
Background: Pseudonyms are widely used among writers, on matter when and where
3 reasons: 1. Free to write 2. Gain serious review 3. Re-start (“distances them from their previous work”)
Back to the case of J.K. Rowling, the reasons she chose to write under an assumed name are back to the beginning in a new genre. (“But as one of the world's best-known writers, the delightful sense of being anonymous will probably continue to remain elusive.”)

Young, single and nearby(4'15'')
Two apps introduced evince a recent phenomenon in America that the young are likely to choose their date-mates through digital apps. Those apps, Tinder and Bang with Friends (BWF), were successful, considerate their a great number of users.Report supported that "Such apps make it easier to find potential partners, but don’t seem to have turned America into a nation of bed-hoppers." But, it did cause the "socially inept face-to-face" problem, highly relying on technologies and poor face-to-face communication skills.

Yet another existential hero(5')
Hook: The brief plot about "The Wolverine" -> those topic on Hero
The author category the hero film into "Getting into the Game" and "Getting Back into the Game"
"Getting into the Game": a young man finally be a hero
"Getting back into the Game": a retired hero become hero again
The author's options: 3 reasons for the Hollywood heavily relies on the formula, a model, to making films: laziness; low risk; and "the plot is pushed into the margins"
The author's suggestion:"Films haven’t always relied on these two blueprints", such as the first 007 movie.

Searching for a diagnosis(7'30'')
Map1. the current situation of health care system in the U.S ("varies dramatically from one region to the next" )
Map2. the reasons that caused the difference in Medicare spending
2.1 " little relationship between spending and health outcomes"
2.2 "That’s because Medicare spending does not vary just by region, but within regions and even within hospitals and doctors’ groups. "
Map3.why spending varies so spectacularly
3.1 Age, sex and health status
3.2 private insurance
Map4. This answers evoke debates
Map5. how to solve the problem that "for both Medicare and private insurers"<-"America’s reigning fee-for-service system"
Thanks to some Acts, but the efficiency is still "too soon to know"

No angel-Perhaps Jesus was no pacifist(5')
1. Reza Aslan - background:an Iranian-born American writer; writing style: "a subtle view of the different layers of truth"
2. In RA's least book, Zealot, he descried the story of Jesus's life. The assumption he made in the book is opposed to the New Testament.
3. His narrative open to no questions (incontrovertible)
pronouncement:an authoritative announcement
4. In RA's view, Jesus fought against Rome who brought war rather than pace.
5. The greatness was superimposed to J
6. the material RA used (itinerant preachers)
7,8. using context to analysis J "refuses to even acknowledge the possibility of prophecy" : prediction

The British at table(7')
Map1. For decades, the British women have never learnt to cook
Map2. Two main problems faced by the British: " survive on processed food" and "no longer eat together"
2.1 Processed food- figure suggested that Britons ate even less percentage vegetable and fishes than in the wartime; more worse, it that they ate more than that time. <- no time to cook; advances in technologies
2.2 No eat together - Reason1: live alone; Reason2: "Mealtimes are no longer conventional or clearly defined" Reason3. eating out

DAY02-7.28

The final pilgrimage(5')
hook: the annual feast day of Saint James in Santiago de Compostela; danger case1. the train crash on the eve of the saint's day; danger case2. floods in Hindu pilgrims
the Alliance of Religions and Conservation aims to provide a safe environment for the pilgrimage
What evokes these dangers? - "Perhaps certain dangers are growing more acute"
Although the religious journeys have always been risky, "many people making journeys with a spiritual purpose have been well prepared for the possibility that they are making their last earthly journey"

Every parting gives a foretaste of death; every coming together again a foretaste of the resurrection. -- Arthur Schopenhauer

Austin, Liam; Feather John, 'A Sixteenth-Century Library in Eighteenth-Century Cambridge', Library & Information History, Vol.29 No.1, March 2013 (Time: NA)
This research is about the Library of Corpus Christi College, Cambridge. Matthew Parker bequeathed his collection to that library in the 16c. The authors used those records, such as the register information, to analysis its usage in the 16c-18c, especially in the 18c. In this report, it covers the "to what extent were Parker's conditions honoured " and "how was the Library actually used", and the reading preference at that time.

DAY03-7.29

Moon, Yumi, Immoral Rights: Korean Populist Collaborators and the Japanese Colonization of Korea, 1904-1910, The American History Review, Vol.18, No.1, February 2013 (Time: NA)
After the hook part... I lost...

More good than harm(3'30'')
News Background: 23 Indian children died after eating a midday meal that was provided for free by their school.
Map1. free meal policy was widely adopted in Indian; a research pointed out that after the policy was implicated, more girls went to school....
Map2. the research found that there are deficiency in those free meals, which just cost 3 cents per student per meal!
Map3. the failure is caused not only but the less funning but also corrupted supporting agencies, such as private companies and NGOs
Finally, "next month, the Indian government will be voting on a food security bill"

Train tragedy(4'42'')
News background: the Spain's rail crash happened on July 24th.
Map1. the driver was blamed.
Map2. Could the system be more safer? yea- but those tragedies are generated by several failures
Map3. Why and how this tragedy happened? - "Spaniards like their infrastructure" ... not sure
finally, “The first thing to do is attend to the victims and the injured,”

Who is Fabrice 'Fabulous Fab' Tourre?(5') - Not Eco.
Fabrice Tourre, the Goldman Sachs trader, is accused of defrauding clients, and helping bring down the world economy. "Fabulous Fab" is his nickname used by himself.

“It just wasn’t accurate at the time”(5')
Map1. Background: ON JULY 26th, Fabrice Tourre "alleged to have deliberately misled clients leading to a billion dollars in losses, stepped down from the witness stand. "
Map2. the description of his trial
Map3. although there may be wrongdoing, no "unassailable evidence" supports it. Besides, ONE sensitive email
Map4. and for those who lost money, should they "have been responsible for their own analysis and their own investment decisions"?
Map5. background about Fabrice Tourre since university life.

DAY04-7.30-Is the risk of cyber-warfare overrated?

Worries about internet security are growing—cybercrime, cyber-espionage, cyber-terrorism and cyber-warfare are increasingly preoccupying decision-makers inside and outside government.

Cyber-warfare: Hype and fear(5'+)
The American government worried that cyber-attacks on America will happen some time. Many of the attacks are purely criminal, while some of them are made by government.
Boring, not lurid
Although some new rules are introduced in the State to deal with cyber-threats, they still afraid the ability of China.

In short, “cyber-warfare can only be a support function” for other forms of war.

Four horsemen
The other 4 worries: 1. strategic cyberwar 2.cyber-espionage 3.cyber-disruption 4.cyber-terrorism
Theft from thieves
Well... they believe we steal their date, so they want to steal something back...

Cyber-warfare: Seek and hide(4')
The list of malicious programs suspected of being the handiwork of governments is getting longer. These tasks come to computer-security veterans. And some of the computer-security experts renew calls for governments to negotiate a ban on developing cyber-weapons. Google also involved in this cyber-attacks by warning their customers whose accounts or computers are targeted.

Cyberlaw: Badlands(1'30'')
The North and South Korea involved in cyber-attacks. Then, international laws to cyber-defence are considerate to solve the chaos.

Cyber-warfare: Flame on!(2')
Stuxnet, Duqu and Flame are 3 software viruses. Of course, they bring 'damage'; but "some researchers argue these new weapons are not as dangerous as they are often made out to be and could in fact reduce the risk of a physical conflict."

Cyber-security: The digital arms trade(3'30'')
Exploits is packets of computer code, which allow the hacker to find “vulnerability”. Exploits themselves are legal, but buying and selling of illicit exploits is not allowed, because they can be used as “digital weapons” by despotic regimes. It is hard to track down exploits, thus some governments and even allwell-financed intelligence agencies use exploits to get information as a digital weapon. Thanks to the high demand of exploits, their prices become higher and higher. It is also low risk to code this kind of programmes.

The moderator's opening remarks(1')
"The use of digital weapons will be an inevitable part of future military conflict: but does that deserve the label "cyber-warfare"."

The proposer's opening remarks(NA)
"Code-borne sabotage is a real risk", and even, it is danger in the social medium.

The opposition's opening remarks(NA)
Cyber-warfare itself is not risk. It is a multi-factor that contributes the overrated on the cyber-warfare.
1. "The risk of data loss due to theft by nation states is far from theoretical"
2. " the risk of damaging physical-world resources"
3. cultural and media power also play roles in information security
4. "ignores the reality that the power to access data via unauthorised means inherently contains the power to destroy that data"

DAY07-8.02-Is technological progress accelerating?

Innovation pessimism: Has the ideas machine broken down?(5'+)
(Background)
The birthplace of the semiconductor industry and the computer and internet companies now suffers a decline rate of innovation. The economist predicates that "the rich world’s economic doldrums may be rooted in a long-term technological stasis".
Glide path
3 lines to describe the situation of world technology:
1. Flattened out - Extensive growth & Intensive growth : the over trend is increase in German, British, Japan; fluctuated in U.S.

Extensive growth is a matter of adding more and/or better labour, capital and resources.
Intensive growth is powered by the discovery of ever better ways to use workers and resources.

2.Rising tide - about "growth in output and overall economic welfare" : U.S.' is significant higher than the average of world, esp. since 1950
3.One big wave - about "real output per person" : the U.S. take over the U.K.
(my summary about the current situation is : after the peak)
A fall of moondust
compared with pervious performance, some cases are getting better, while some are worse
->

Technological progress does not require all technologies to move forward in lock step, merely that some important technologies are always moving forward.

The fountains of paradise
"the evidence of your senses"
The other side of the sky
granted that some up-to-date innovation dismiss the worry about further, but the growth generated by the technology is decrease. This change may due to: 1. the economy is now much regular 2. the role of government less effect 3. the slowdown in energy 4. globalisation
The view from Serendip
hope a good further...

Growth: The great innovation debate(5')
Map1. brilliant HISTORY
Map2. Although the life expectancy is still improving, it has to say the impact of innovation does indeed seem to be tailing off.
Map3. role of government: impediments

Technology Monitor: The Economist’s 2012 innovation awards(5')
Map1. the history: in the mid-1990s, there is a great economic growth owing to the electrification; then in the 2005, the growth more rely on IT. The author suspects " that societal rigidity is endogenous to the pace of underlying technological growth".

DAY08-8.03

Ancient after all?(5’)
Background: a piece of evidence has been found to identify the Solomon's temple. The Israeli authorities shifted their position from believing its a forgery to an antiquity.
This change starts from the charge of Oded Golan with forgery. The Mr. Gded was acquitted of all forgery charges. However, recently, the government is willing and try to overturn that ruling, because the inscription was still considered fake but the stone itself was now regarded as ancient. As for Mr. Oded, he would love to leave this stone tablet to a museum rather than give to the government.

Happy markets, struggling workers(2’20’’)
A survey showed that there was only 0.1% rise in the households’ income, while there 16% up in the FTSE 100 index. This suggests that investors are rolling in it, while ordinary workers still struggle. This, of course, leads to some political protes. The author thinks that it is better to encourage those investors and businesses to create jobs; however, it is hard for the government to narrow the gap between the financial markets and the rest of the economy.

Past performance may not be predictive(3’)
The author “very sympathetic to the view that the selection process should focus intensely on monetary policy views, and that the candidates should not be allowed to campaign for the job without discussing their thoughts in some detail.” And the author holds his opinion because that 1. people will not do as what your predict; 2. situations are different now.

DAY09-8.04

How will Uruguay’s marijuana law work?(3'30'')
Background: Uruguay’s proposals about Drug-law reformers
Map1. the current situation around the world; Portugal decriminalised the personal possession and use of all drugs, but drug users are still stopped by the police; the supply side of the business remains illegal in Netherlands
Map2. Uruguay’s proposed law would break new ground by legalising the entire business, from cultivation to consumption
Map3. the police to focus on violent crime and on stopping the smuggling of harder drugs
