Secular humanism

若自己的稿件被《作家》选登，需极清醒。万不可以为名字在《作家》上出现，便是作家。

我的一篇短文《会餐》得到《作家》小说奖，没有不高兴的道理，但我知道我仍只是一个作者，还远不能成“家”。

人们常常说的成名成家，实际并不是一回事。成名很容易。去卧一次轨；飞起一砖，击碎商店玻璃。总之，造成社会的同情或扰乱治安以及产生种种社会影 响，你便成名，令人挂在嘴上。成家极难。首先，要是一种劳动；再能将劳动的量变为质，通规律，成系统，有独创，方能成家。百姓中所称的“把子”，就是家， 虽然可能是犁田、打铁，却都符合“家”的要求。

以此观己，远不到“家”。近半年常被人称为“青年作家”，于是假作镇静，其实是在暗中控制惶恐，另，我已三十六余，早已进入中年，一定说我还未发育 成中年，便很苦恼。儿童时便真实地做一个儿童，不要充大；青年时便热情地做一个青年，狂一些也没关系；中年时便认认真真地做一个中年人，为家庭为国家负起 应负的责任，自有中年的色彩与自豪。非要挤进青年行列，胡子刮得再干净也仍有一片青，很尴尬。

青年人常以为事情可以由一个人做，中年人就明白成功的事情总是众人造成。《会餐》就是众人齐努力，才得以让人看到铅印出来的文章，因此感谢《作家》编辑部就不是一句客套话。

发奖会上若由每人介绍自己，我便会站起来，说：“中年作者阿城。”然后，鞠一个躬，坐下。

中国处于5000年来最大的盛世

中国在有文字记载的5000多年中，被人们称道的有五大盛世。这就是汉朝的“文景之治”、唐 朝的“贞观之治”“开元之治”、清朝的“康熙之治”“乾隆之治”，以及今天的改革开放以来，尤其是最近15年来的稳定高速发展时期。尽管中国仍有这样那样 的事不尽如人意之处，但一些刚性的不可变的基石性因素却使得中国当之无愧的被世界人民看好，当之无愧的将被史学家们誉为5000年来最长最大的盛世。这些 刚性的不可变的基石性因素主要如下：

政治局面空前稳定；13多亿人民人心思治，台独势力得到了极有效的抑制。整个社会向着更实更强的和谐社会迈进。

人才多、劳动力多，且物美价廉。中国成为世界上最好的无法竞争的无可争议的最佳投资场所。

市场无限大，每年增加人口800万，且人均国民收入，人均居民存款在增长，等于一年两个新加坡，三年一个台湾省，五年一个加拿大 (calculation formula: 8M growth in population = 2*4M (Singapore Population) or 1/3*23M(Taiwan Population) or  1/5*40M(Canada Population)。这样大的市场，这么多的人民，谁敢不重视，谁敢与之为敌。

各级政府一心一意搞经济，全力以赴拼经济，而且都是战略性的大思维。

人民。中国人民是世界上最好的人民，勤劳、勇敢、拼搏创新，且遵纪守法，艰苦节俭，储蓄率为世界第一。小布什希望中国人民像美国人一样成为消费型居民现在完全不可能，中国有中国的国情。

以上五大因素，几十年不会变，中国将是21世纪世界上发展最快的大国。

傻瓜汉化包下载及教程 （http://www.blogkindle.com/unicode-fonts-hack)

我用我的kindle2试了，效果还不错，大概测试了一下对kindle的其他功能都没什么影响，应该只是替换了字体。据说汉化以后就可以安装中英双语的字典，还没来得及试。终于可以在公车上看中文小说了，要不10分钟的路看英文的话还不够看一页呢。。。

简要中文翻译


第1步：去下载破解文件：
http://www.blogkindle.com/wp-con ... _hack_v01_droid.zip
第2步：将下载的2个文件拷到kindle的根本录下。文件是：update_unicode_fonts_droid_install.bin，update_unicode_fonts_droid_install_browser.bin
第3步，在kindle里找到升级，点：home/menu/settings/menu/update your kindle，升级完成后就可以看中文了。
第4步，因为kindle对TXT支持不好，看到一半就出乱码，所以纯文本不能直接读，必须要转成mobi或者azw，再放回到文档里就能读了，文件名目前不支持中文。
第5步，如果要升级kindle必须要卸掉前的破解。将前面下的升级程序的第三个文件：update_unicode_fonts_uninstall.bin，拷入根目录（破解时不用这个文件），执行第3步，这样kindle就回到了原始装态。
第6步，转mobi或者azw的程序目前在苹果上比较好。stanza，用这个程序转，http://www.lexcycle.com/download-windows，可以下PC版的。

UFHack is a hack for Amazon Kindle 2 that allows replacing default Kindle 2 fonts with different ones, including fonts that support broader range of characters like Cyrillic, Chinese, Japanese, etc. Hack comes in a form of manually installable patch and is fully reversible. Source code is included so you can customize the hack. If you do, please let me know and I’ll host or link to the modified version as I’m sure that one size doesn’t fit all.

Important!:

• Use this hack and instructions at your own risk! Although I tested it to the best of my ability on my own device I can’t guarantee that it will work on yours and will not be responsible for any damage (including completely and irreversibly bricking your device) it may have caused!
• This hack works only on Kindle 2. For Kindle 1 you’ll need a different one. If you are not sure which version you have it’s best not to mess with it all.
  
• Having this hack installed will cause installation of official Amazon.com updates to fail. This is normal. You’ll need to reverse the hack (see instuctions below), install the Amazon.com update manually and then reapply the hack.
  

There are two versions of hack available. Functionally they are identical but they are prepacked with different sets of fonts:

• kindle_font_hack_v01_liberation.zip - this hack uses Liberation fonts that come with RedHat Linux and are free to redistribute. All font styles are preserved (serif, sans-serif, mono-spaced, bold and italic) but these fonts only support Latin and Cyrillic characters. So if you are only interested in Russian books - this is the way to go. Otherwise this patch will do you little good.

• kindle_font_hack_v01_droid.zip - this hack uses open-source Droid fonts  that are part of Google Android platform. Unfortunately not all fonts support all styles and some styles are missing completely. This patch uses DroidSansFallback to replace standard Serif fonts in Kindle. It supports Cyrillic, Chinese, Japanese and a bunch of other languages at a price of loosing styles such as bold and italic. This font also looks very good on the Kindle screen (in my opinion way better than native Kindle fonts). This is the patch I currently have installed on my Kindle 2.

Installing the hack:

1. Download either of the hacks from links above and unzip the archive.
2. Connect your Kindle 2 to your PC via USB cable.
3. Copy either update_unicode_fonts_droid_install.bin or update_unicode_fonts_liberation_install.bin to the root directory of your Kindle. Never copy more than 1 file! update_unicode_fonts_droid_install_browser.bin or update_unicode_fonts_liberation_install_browser.bin can also be copied - these patches install the same fonts as their counterparts but only for the web-browser. This is mostly useful if you would like to experiment with your own fonts (see below)
4. Optionally but highly recommended: use “Safely Remove Hardware” to “eject” Kindle 2. In order for this to work you need to close all Windows Explorer and other file manager windows that display contents of Kindle drive
5. Use menus to initiate manual update installation: Press “Home” to fo to the home screen, press “Menu” and select “Settings”, press “Menu” again and select “Update Your Kindle”, press the 5-way controller once more to confirm the update.
6. Your Kindle 2 will switch through several update screens and then reboot.
7. Once it reboots, you can test that the hack installed properly and works:
   1. First of all you should see apparent change in all of the fonts if you didn’t install browser-only update.
   2. press “Menu”, select “Settings”. In the bottom portion of the settings page you should see Kindle software version and “+ UFHack 0.1″.
   3. Start web browser and open http://www.wikipedia.org/ - you should see Russian text in the bottom left rather than boxes with question marks. If you used droid patch - Japanese characters in the upper-left will also display.
   4. And of course you can now copy books in different languages and start reading them.
8. Connect your Kindle 2 to your PC via USB cable and copy *.orig files from the root directory to a safe location. Normally you’ll not need these to reverse the hack but it’s good to keep a copy of these just in case.

Uninstalling the hack:

1. Connect your Kindle 2 to your PC via USB cable.
2. Copy update_unicode_fonts_uninstall.bin to the root directory of your Kindle. Make sure that there are no other Update_*.bin files there.
3. Optionally but highly recommended: use “Safely Remove Hardware” to “eject” Kindle 2. In order for this to work you need to close all Windows Explorer and other file manager windows that display contents of Kindle drive.
4. Use menus to initiate manual update installation: Press “Home” to fo to the home screen, press “Menu” and select “Settings”, press “Menu” again and select “Update Your Kindle”, press the 5-way controller once more to confirm the update.
5. Your Kindle 2 will switch through several update screens and then reboot.
6. Once it reboots, you can test that the hack installed properly and works: there should be no “+ UFHack 0.1″ in the version string at the bottom of settings screen, fonts should be back to normal with boxed question marks displayed instead of unicode symbols.
7. Unicode font files are not deleted from Kindle but should cause no problems. If you would like to delete them - contact me and I’ll provide a separate patch for that.

Known issues:

1. There is not perfect one-size fit all font that would preserve styles and display all characters and look nice at the same time. Finding one that is free proved to be more difficult than creating the patch. If you find such a font or even a paid one for which redistribution rights will not cost a small fortune - let me know and I’ll try to arrange a patch with that font.
2. Unicode titles of .mobi and .prc books will display like garbage. This is not an issue with the hack or the fonts. Amazon eBook reader appliation assumes these fields to be ASCII rather than Unicode so they’ll not display correctly no matter what fonts until Amazon fixes this.
3. Patch that uses droid font is very redundant. I’m sure it could have been packed nicer but I don’t want to mess with it more until I find a way to revive Kindle via recovery mode. One typo in font.properties file or one corrupt font is enough to brick the device for good. I’m currently working on figuring out how to install patches from the recovery mode - then it will not be a problem.

Using your own fonts:

1. Once again I’ll stress that this is done at your own risk. Using corrupted font files in the reader app will likely brick your Kindle entirely. If you don’t know what are you doing - don’t do it!
   
2. In order to roll your own Kindle updates you’ll need to have Python installed. One from ActiveState will do nicely.
3. In the /src directory of the hack you’ll find font files, update scripts and other related stuff. Feel free to look into any of it.
4. To use your own fonts you need to replace the ones on that folder (preserving the file names!) and then run build-updates.cmd. This will generate 3 .bin files described above.
5. If you use your own fonts it would be a good idea to test the browser-only update first. Keep in mind that browser-only update uses only Serif*.ttf fonts. So you will want to replace them with the ones that you are testing regardless of the actual typography. Replace all of the files even if you are using same font file.

zcc(李二逼的前室友）有一天特兴奋的说：“Jay~我发现一个特别好玩的事。你要是把一把面条往锅的中心一放，你猜怎么着？“zcc接着说：”面条成放射状散开！“

面食姑娘补充定理一：一般来说光会煮面的姑娘不予考虑，但是如果该姑娘能独立的发现”煮面条放射定理“可以优先考虑。

那天关心一下dan的饮食起居，问dan：”你都吃什么啊？“，dan说”我自己做饼吃“，我惊讶的问”怎么做啊？”，dan说：“可简单了，你把面把锅里一扔，它就自动成个饼形。”

面食姑娘补充定理二：一般来说会做饼的姑娘优先考虑，但是如果该姑娘已经独立的发现”面自动成饼形定理“不予考虑。
