Proceedings of the 15th International Symposium on Bioluminescence and Chemiluminescence

Light Emission : Biology and Scientific Applications

By: Xun Shen

In the last decade, great advances have been made in fundamental research and in the applications of bioluminescence and chemiluminescence. These techniques have become vital tools for laboratory analysis. Bioluminescence imaging has emerged as a powerful new optical imaging technique, offering real-time monitoring of spatial and temporal progression of biological processes in living animals. Bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) methodology has also emerged as a powerful technique for the study of protein-protein interactions. Luciferase reporter gene technology facilitates monitoring of gene expression and is used to probe molecular mechanisms in the regulation of gene expression. Chemiluminescence detection and analysis have also found diverse applications in life science research; for example, chemiluminescent labels and substrates are now widely used in immunoassay and nucleic acid probe-based assays. The latest advances in this exciting field, from fundamental research to cutting-edge applications, are explored in this most recent volume of the biannual symposium series, the Proceedings of the 15th International Symposium on Bioluminescence and Chemiluminescence. The volume highlights advances in fundamental knowledge of luciferase-based bioluminescence, photoprotein-based bioluminescence, fundamental aspects and applications of chemiluminescence, luminescence imaging, fluorescence quantum dots and other inorganic fluorescent materials, phosphorescence and ultraweak luminescence, and instrumentation for measurement and imaging of luminescence.

With his blue eyes shining, who would be rash!He smiled at her, his eyes twinkling. "What if someone likes you?"— —In order to cut off the "root of disaster" of the wolf tribe, she found two secrets that were intersected by time and space, as well as the darkness and conspiracy that was not recorded in the history of the wolf clan.

China was turned into a nation of opium addicts by the pernicious forces of imperialist trade. This study systematically questions this assertion on the basis of abundant archives from China, Europe and the US, showing that opium had few harmful effects on either health or longevity.

The Great Famine in China, 1958-1962

A Documentary History

By: Xun Zhou

Beginning soon after the implementation of the policies of the Great Leap Forward of 1958-1961, when the drive to collectivize and industrialize undermined the livelihoods of the vast majority of peasant workers, China’s Great Famine was the worst famine in human history. In addition to claiming more than 45 million lives, it also led to the destruction of agriculture, industry, trade, and every aspect of human life, leaving large parts of the Chinese countryside scarred forever by human-created environmental disasters. Drawing on previously closed archives that have since been made inaccessible again, Zhou Xun offers readers, for the first time in English, access to the most vital archival documentation of the famine. For some time to come this documentary history may be the only publication available that contains the most crucial primary documents concerning the fate of the Chinese peasantry between 1957 and 1962. It covers everything from collectivization and survival strategies, including cannibalism, to selective killing and mass murder.

Liberationists

a story

By: Xun Yuezang

A human rights worker disappears while crossing the border from HK to China. Though she is presumed kidnapped by the Partystate, no trace of her can be found. With young daughter in tow, her husband takes up the search. Told from the husband's point of view, Liberationists is part love story, part detective novel, part meditation on the value of freedom, democracy and human rights. It depicts the relationship between a parent and young child in a time of crisis as well as the dire situation of those fighting for a better society in today's dystopian China where the world's most powerful dictatorship is intent on maintaining its monopoly on power. The early days of what would become the HK Umbrella Movement play a crucial role in the story's climax. Why push for political and social change at great personal risk, especially when efforts often appear futile? Liberationists examines the motives, logic and actions of people willing to endure hardship and persecution to realize their ideals.

The People's Health

Health Intervention and Delivery in Mao's China 1949-1983

By: Xun Zhou

In 1949, the Communist Party of China pledged that its approach to health care would differ markedly from that of the former Nationalist government and the "imperialist" West. For the next thirty years, under Mao's leadership, the People's Republic of China made improving the health of the entire population a central pillar of its policy. International health stakeholders came to view it as a statistical outlier in its ability to achieve better health outcomes with limited resources. The People's Health is the first systematic study of health care and medicine in Maoist China. Drawing on hundreds of files from rarely seen party archives and oral testimonies from experts, local cadres, and villagers across China, Zhou Xun shifts her historian's gaze away from official statistics towards the records of local institutions and personal memories that reflect and give voice to lived experiences. Through the everyday interactions of policy makers, national and local administration, and communities, Zhou illustrates the dynamic relationship between politics and health, and between individual lives and the political system. Presenting case studies of internationally acclaimed public health initiatives in the PRC - the anti-schistosomiasis campaign and the Barefoot Doctor program - this book offers the first thorough, politically neutral analysis of their background, execution, and national and international repercussions. Opening a unique window into the lives - and health care - of individuals living under communism, The People's Health examines the links between local interest, cultural sensibilities, resources, and abilities, exploring the often unforeseeable consequences of political planning and social engineering.

Chinese Perceptions of the Jews' and Judaism

A History of the Youtai

By: Zhou Xun,Xun Zhou

While prejudice against Jews is a real and ongoing category in Western culture, little attention has been paid to the myths of the Jews' and their impact in countries outside the West. This work draws on a wide variety of source materials from the past two centuries to examine the images of the Jews' as constructed in China. However, the interest here does not lie in the determination of the boundary between the real and fictional aspects of these images. Rather, it lies in the implications associated with the Jew' as an other', which remains a distant mirror in the construction of the self' amongst various social groups in modern China. Although it has been noted by a few scholars that the use of the Jews' as a category was important to many thinkers of modern China in the construction of their nationalistic and socio- political ideologies, this is the first systematic study in the field to be published. This book is also more than a historical book on China in that it opens a new arena for modern Jewish studies from a unique angle.

A People's History of the United States

By: Lin Xun,Dead Writers Club,Pointer Institute,Rex Curry

Superwriter and Supermodel Lin Xun (that's Lin as the covergirl) is the author of this full frontal exposure of the USA. Find out what is taught in the schools of other countries that the USA doesn't teach in its schools. Xun teaches the USA's history to students in China (and other countries), including facts hidden in the USA's classrooms such as: (1) that the "Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag" was the origin of the Nazi salute and Nazi behavior; (2) Swastikas represented crossed "S" letter shapes for "socialist" under Hitler (two of the many astounding discoveries by Sociologist Dr. Rex Curry). Xun reveals all on flag bikinis, flag fetishism, flag propaganda, and more. Each book is personally handled, wrapped, and posted by Lin Xun (in the nude). Or by the publisher, depending on who's available. What do other countries think about the USA's Pledge of Allegiance today? Xun tells all as she joins forces with the Dead Writers Club in this eye-popping page-turner. Learn how the USA and its pledge inspired police states globally. Will America escape the madness? Will you? Save yourself from the cult of the ominpotent state! The book "A People's History of the United States" introduces readers to Anarchaeology, Misanthropology, and the Socialist Crusades, the Latest Socialist Dark Age, and the Modern Socialist Inquisitions, which resulted in the Wholecaust (of which the Holocaust was a part). Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin, Mao Zedong and other socialists are exposed along with the influence of socialists in the United States upon those dictators. As part of the Dead Writers Club (DWC), Lin Xun has collaborated with the authors Micky Barnetti and Matt Crypto. Another volume by the Dead Writers Club is the self-titled "Dead Writers Club" and "Drug Detection Dog Training -Libertarian Lawyers Fight Police State USA." The DWC collaborated on the groundbreaking book "Pledge of Allegiance & Swastika Secrets." It is a semi-biographical work about the nation's leading authority on the Pledge of Allegiance and his many discoveries about its bizarre past and present. The DWC also assisted with a classic science fiction tale revealing an amazing discovery about time travel.

Mafic-ultramafic Intrusions in Beishan and Eastern Tianshan at Southern CAOB: Petrogenesis, Mineralization and Tectonic Implication

By: Ben-Xun Su

The widespread mafic-ultramafic complexes in the Earth are well-known as their hosting Ni-Cu-PGE ore deposits, and their petrogenesis and mineralization have become hot issues in the geological studies. This thesis comprehensively investigated the petrology, mineralogy, geochemistry and geochronology of several mafic-ultramafic complexes in the Beishan Terrane, southern Central Asian Orogenic Belt aimed at systematically determining the mineralization and petrogenetic processes responsible for the formation of the complexes and placing constraints on the tectonic evolution of the Eastern Tianshan and Beishan, and the Early Permian mantle plume. The thesis identified mineralizing indicators of Ni-Cu sulfide deposits and defined the roles of partial melting, fractional crystallization, crustal assimilation and magma injection. The systematical isotopic compositions revealed the mantle source of the mafic-ultramafic complexes had undergone the subduction-related modifications both from the South Tianshan Ocean and subsequently the Junggar Ocean, and that the complexes were emplaced in the period of 269-285 Ma coeval with the 280 Ma mantle plume event in the Tarim Craton. The results of this thesis provide new insights about the tectonic setting, magma evolution, ore genesis, and exploration implications of the mafic-ultramafic complexes in Central Asian Orogenic Belt. Dr. Benxun Su works at the Institute of Geology and Geophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, China.

2 Girls 1 Cup

By: Lin Xun,Ian Tinny,Dead Writers Club,Rex Curry

Supermodel and super-writer Lin Xun exposes "2 girls 1 cup"! Her phrase is shorthand for "Stalin and Hitler," and especially when those two hooked-up together. It is also shorthand for "Stalin and Mao" and their coupling too. There was a sick union shared by all 3 of the gangbangers: Stalin, Mao, and Hitler. They were joined by comrades in the USA. Their compatriots continue to cover up their depraved lifestyle today. Top historical discoveries of the century are revealed in this book, including: (1) Congress and the Flag Code confirm that the military salute was the origin of the Nazi salute. (2) The USA's Pledge of Allegiance inspired Nazi rituals. (3) Public schools spread Nazi behavior. (4) Swastikas represented crossed "S" letter shapes for "socialist" under Hitler. Top historical discoveries undisputed by the NEW YORK TIMES * The Washington Post * Los Angeles Times * San Francisco Chronicle * Tampa Bay Times * Chicago Tribune * Newsday * The New York Times Book Review * Tampa Tribune * Library Journal * Publishers Weekly * Saint Petersburg Times * People * Entertainment Weekly * Vogue * O: The Oprah Magazine ! They are astounding discoveries by the historian Dr. Rex Curry. To an astronomer, this would be almost like finding water on Mars. To a physician, like discovering the cure to a disease. Plus, new death of Fidel Castro bonus at no extra charge! The publisher's search continues for photographs and old film footage showing presidents, members of congress, and other officials on the federal, state, county, and city levels doing the Nazi salute to the U.S. flag. Please send any images or inquiries to the email address of the publisher mentioned in the book. A large quantity of such material is in the archives of the historian Dr. Rex Curry. Anyone who doubts that Hitler used the swastika to represent "S" letter shapes for "Socialism" is someone who believes Hitler was blind and that Hitler remained blind throughout the decades that Hitler used the symbol for his National Socialist Party. Eventually, Dr. Curry's discovery about the swastika will become so well-known and so obvious that no one will believe that Dr. Curry "made the discovery that Hitler used the swastika to represent 'S' letter shapes for 'socialism'" because no one will believe that there ever was a time when people could not recognize Dr. Curry's scholarship as self-evident. People will not believe that there ever was a time when the world did not notice the glaring truth about the differences between Hitler's symbol, swastikas, and their alterations. People of the future will not believe that people of today were so blind and ignorant. It will be Dr. Curry's revolutionary paradigm shift. The same path of doubt, dissemination, and eventual widespread acceptance will occur regarding Dr. Curry's discovery that the Pledge of Allegiance was the origin of the Nazi salute and Nazi behavior. It will be another revolutionary paradigm shift. "There is rumor of a Pulitzer Prize for exposing the Pledge of Allegiance as the origin of Nazi salutes and Nazi behavior; and the swastika as alphabetical 'S' letter shaped symbolism for 'socialist.' Hooray!" - R. Yates Bloodsworth, Stop The Pledge (STP) Foundation "The professor's work left us speechless!" - Tampa Tribune Newspaper "The symbol presently known as Lin Xun wrote a game-changer with this book." - Timothy Cruz "For all the women in the world who have been christened with 'Swastika' as their name, Dr. Curry is a hero and an international treasure. His work is a welcome revelation." - Swastika Mukher "Before these revelations, Americans could not speak the truth about the Pledge of Allegiance. Dr. Curry is the Rosa Parks of the pledge. He is the Ruby Bridges of the schools, having changed them forever." - No Pledge Publishing "This book will make you wonder if anything you know is true." - Dead Writers Club

Arguing that labor was working at cross purposes, the authors explore three distinctive and different forms of working-class protest: rebellion, conservatism, and economism. Drawing upon a wealth of heretofore inaccessible archival sources, the authors probe the divergent political, psychocultural, and socioeconomic strains within the Shanghai labor movement, convincingly illustrating the complexity of working-class politics in contemporary China. }This pathbreaking book offers the first in-depth study of Chinese labor activism during the momentous upheaval of the Cultural Revolution. The authors explore three distinctive forms of working-class protest: rebellion, conservatism, and economism. Labor, they argue, was working at cross-purposes through these three modes of militancy promoted by different types of leaders with differing agendas and motivations. Drawing upon a wealth of heretofore inaccessible archival sources, the authors probe the divergent political, psychocultural, and socioeconomic strains within the Shanghai labor movement. As they convincingly illustrate, the multiplicity of worker responses to the Cultural Revolution cautions against a one-dimensional portrait of working-class politics in contemporary China. }

Selected Stories of Lu Hsun

By: Xun Lu

Some of these stories, I am sure, will be read as long as the Chinese language exists."—Ha Jin "When I was young I, too, had many dreams. Most of them came to be forgotten, but I see nothing in this to regret. For although recalling the past may make you happy, it may sometimes also make you lonely, and there is no point in clinging in spirit to lonely bygone days. However, my trouble is that I cannot forget completely, and these stories have resulted from what I have been unable to erase from memory."—Lu Hsun Living during a time of dramatic change in China, Lu Hsun had a career that was as varied as his writing. As a young man he studied medicine in Japan but left it for the life of an activist intellectual, eventually returning to China to teach. Though he supported the aims of the Communist revolution, he did not become a member of the party nor did he live to see the Communists take control of China. Ambitious to reach a large Chinese audience, Lu Hsun wrote his first published story, "A Madman's Diary," in the vernacular, a pioneering move in Chinese literature at the time. "The True Story of Ah Q," a biting portrait of feudal China, gained him popularity in the West. This collection of eighteen stories shows the variety of his style and subjects throughout his career. In a new introduction, Ha Jin, the author of Waiting (National Book Award winner), The Bridegroom, and other works, places Lu Hsun's life and work in the context of Chinese history and literature.

Libertarian History

By: Lin Xun,Dead Writers Club,Pointer Institute,Rex Curry

Supermodel (that's her on the cover) and Superwriter Lin Xun bares all in this book about history and the never-ending fight for liberty. She exposes anti-freedom schemes, including these shockers: (1) that the "Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag" was the origin of the Nazi salute and Nazi behavior; (2) that the military salute was the origin of the Nazi salute (via the military salute's use in the original Pledge of Allegiance) and; (3) Swastikas represented crossed "S" letter shapes for "socialist" under Hitler (three of the many astounding discoveries by avant-garde Political Scientist Dr. Rex Curry. The government calls Dr. Curry "the man who knows too much"). Each book is personally handled, wrapped, and mailed by Lin Xun (in the nude). Or by the publisher, depending on who's available. In this book, Lin spanks history's bottom, leaving red hand prints. Like a true patriot fashionista, she uses the flag as her own personal butt floss. The flag never objected. With a message from the socialist Kim Jong-un, the book "Libertarian History" introduces readers to Anarchaeology, Misanthropology, and the Socialist Crusades, the Latest Socialist Dark Age, and the Modern Socialist Inquisitions, which resulted in the Wholecaust (of which the Holocaust was a part). Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin, Mao Zedong and other socialists are exposed along with the influence of socialists in the United States upon those criminals. Author Lin Xun is part of the Pointer Institute for Media Studies, as well as the Dead Writer's Club ("DWC" -an author's group). Lin and the Pointer Institute provide remedial education to journalists about history, economics, government, and more. They untangle those twelve years of brainwashing that cripples news reporters. In their fight against media incompetency, the DWC joined with the Pointer Institute in 2016 to shut down the Tampa Tribune Newspaper. As part of the Dead Writers Club (DWC), Lin has collaborated with the authors Micky Barnetti and Matt Crypto. Another volume by the Dead Writers Club is "Drug Detection Dog Training -Libertarian Lawyers Fight Police State USA." It is also available where fine books are sold. Lin says: "Students in government schools (socialist schools) should not drink the Kool-Aid every morning." For those who have, Lin's book contains the antidote. In her star-spangled writing, Lin shows you how to save yourself from the cult of the omnipotent state! [dramatic musical flourish]

God Hates Flags! Buy This Book Or Go to Hell.

By: Lin Xun,Pointer Institute,Dead Writers Club,Rex Curry

God hates flags! Learn why God prohibits idolatry, other gods, and graven images. Flag worship is forbidden for many reasons including: (1) the "Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag" was written by an American socialist and was the origin of the Nazi salute and Nazi behavior under German socialism; (2) the military salute was the origin of the Nazi salute (because the military salute was used in the original Pledge of Allegiance) and; (3) German socialists used the early American hand-salute to pledge allegiance to their swastika flag that represented crossed "S" letter shapes for "socialist" (those are three of the many divine revelations from the philologist Dr. Rex Curry, and explained by the author Lin Xun). This book reveals for the first time how Congress and the U.S.'s official Flag Code expose the military salute as the origin of the Nazi salute. The U.S. Congress revealed that Dr. Curry's academic discoveries are correct. "The research for Dr. Curry's scholarly work was painstaking and difficult, but fortunately grad students are plentiful and cheap," said Lin regarding America's beloved VexilLOLogist. The legendary teacher explores the power of sacred myths in the land of the free and the home of the brave. With a message from God, the book "God Hates Flags!" introduces readers to the Socialist Crusades, the "hooked cross," the Latest Socialist Dark Age, and the Modern Socialist Inquisitions, which resulted in the Wholecaust (of which the Holocaust was a part). Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin, Mao Zedong and other socialists are exposed along with the influence of socialists in the United States upon those criminals. Remember: Buy this book or go to Hell. Author Lin Xun is part of the Pointer Institute for Media Studies, as well as the Dead Writer's Club ("DWC" -an author's group). Lin and the Pointer Institute provide remedial education to journalists about history, economics, government, and more. They untangle those twelve years of brainwashing that cripples news reporters. In their fight against media incompetency, the DWC joined with the Pointer Institute in 2016 to shut down the Tampa Tribune Newspaper. Lin says: "Students in government schools (socialist schools) should not pray the Pledge of Allegiance every morning." She shows you how to save yourself from the cult of the omnipotent state! The de-programming guide is right here. "God Hates Flags!" debunks parts of Timothy Snyder's books "Bloodlands" and "Black Earth." As part of the Dead Writers Club (DWC), Lin has collaborated with the authors Micky Barnetti and Matt Crypto. Another volume by the Dead Writers Club is "Drug Detection Dog Training -Libertarian Lawyers Fight Police State USA." It is also available where fine books are sold. The Dead Writers Club believes in the power of ideas. Their team of experts has helped curate and explain the historic documents that have shaped the world, and their wisdom can empower anyone to think smarter. Learn how to unravel astonishing mysteries where other people see only stale mechanical chanting - and become a more powerful persuader - using ideas from the history books you feel you should know (but will never have time to read). "There is rumor of a Pulitzer Prize for exposing the Pledge of Allegiance as the origin of Nazi salutes and Nazi behavior; and the swastika as alphabetical 'S' letter shaped symbolism for 'socialist.' Hooray!" - R. Yates Bloodsworth "This book is a major contribution to the burgeoning fields of Misathropology and Anarchaeology." - No Pledge Publishing "The professor's work left us speechless!" - Tampa Tribune Newspaper "Dr. Curry's book makes an important contribution to a growing body of scholarship that seeks to understand the vital role that rituals and symbols have played in the development of American nationalism." - Rev. Tonto G. Rutherford
