Wukan Villagers to Elect Village Chief on March 1st
For more news and videos visit ☛ english.ntdtv.com Follow us on Twitter ☛ http Add us on Facebook ☛ on.fb.me On March 1st Wukan villagers will vote for their village chief. Wukan is the Chinese village that kicked out all Communist Party authorities at the end of last year, as part of a protest against illegal land grabs. And after a two-week stand off with the police, the Chinese regime agreed, in principle, to meet their demands%mdashone of which was for fair local elections. Many suspect the Chinese regime does not want to let the elections get too much media attention. Reporters from Hong Kong's "Apple Daily" recently saw a large billboard detailing election regulations in Wukan, yet the next day the board had been removed. Wukan villagers told NTD on February 1st they had elected a committee to oversee the election process. Forty people ran for eleven positions. At time of report, the results were not out yet. The committee will oversee the election of new leaders to replace those who were dismissed after the protest. [Mr. Cai, Wukan Villager]:(Male, Chinese, First in footage) "There is a ticket office for each village. Only two villages are done, five villages remain. We elected the notary public and next month, on March 1st, we will elect the village committee." The original conflict in Wukan was over officials carrying out illegal land grabs. Villagers are still wary of the regime and question whether it will keep its promises, even after the election in March. [Mr ... From: NTDTV Views: 241 6 ratings Time: 02:40 More in News & Politics

Santa Pays Surprise Visit to Polish Salt Mine

Santa slid down the mine shaft of an abandoned salt mine that has become a popular tourist hotspot. Santa Claus may have a busy schedule in the lead up to Christmas Day, but it seems that he still has time for the children waiting for presents underground -- several hundred meters underground in the Bochina salt mine. This abandoned mine is one of the oldest in the world and has become a visitors' hotspot and an ideal place for children who can explore the deserted shafts and passages. Santa slid down the mine shaft and arrived with two angels to help him hand out goodies to the children in southern Poland who are celebrating St. Nicholas Day. But he told the children they shouldn't think that they can get away with being naughty, just because they are underground. "Listen children, remember that even though we are two hundred and forty eight meters underground, Santa Claus can still see you. Always be good because you never know when I'll be watching your behaviour," The children, dressed up in face paint for the occasion, were delighted by Santa's visit. "I didn't expect that we would meet Father Christmas underground and that he would give us beautiful presents." From: NTDTV Views: 33 1 ratings Time: 01:17 More in News & Politics

As neuroscientists are learning more and more about our body's hidden frontier, we have gained fleeting insights into our own intuition, habits and seemingly unexplainable preferences. Can we solve those mysteries by creating a complete computer model of our brain? Or, is the brain an unsolvable puzzle? Two leading neuroscientists discuss these questions and more as we look into the neurology of the brain.

Lesson 20 – ‘Learn To Enjoy Painting’ with Paul Taggart
[LESS INFO] 0 VIEWS | ADDED 21:05:55 11/19/11
For this final lesson in the set of Acrylic Painting tutorials in this ‘Learn To Enjoy Painting’ series, Artist and Author Paul Taggart gets to grips with the finishing touches. ........................... For highlights to have an impact, they too must be applied gradually from coloured whites through to the pure white of a super highlight. ........................... Even Paul himself does not get to see his strokes at such close quarters, as can be seen here through the zooming eye of the video camera. See for yourself the dynamic effects of the subtle changes between coloured whites and final pure whites. ........................... You will find yourself holding your breath as he drips the final touches of pure white onto the collar and shoulder of the two silhouetted figures in the centre of the composition – an effective use of pinpoints of light to draw the viewer’s eye. episodes to Lesson 10 - where this build-up acrylic painting tutorials starts. ............................ Using a traditional painting technique of layering through from dark to light, you can now see how important the underlying layers are in working gradually through to the highlight areas. ........................... Successfully painting figures in silhouette is not merely a matter of painting them in a solid dark colour – it is about producing a formed structure on which the darks are built – once again this is a ‘how to achieve successful silhouettes’ tutorial in its own right. ............................ Packed full of handy hints and tips – explained in detail through Paul’s running commentary, you will learn much from this lesson alone. ........................... Follow Paul's detailed demonstration and you will appreciate how Paul's enthusiasm for his craft comes through as he delights in sharing his knowledge - borne from the experience of a professional artist of some forty odd years standing. ........................... Nishith Gupta’s (India) photographic work was brought to Paul's attention through a painting friend and he has kindly granted permission for us to use his photographs as references for this painting.

David Eagleman, neuroscientist and author of Incognito: The Secret Lives of the Brain, discusses the relatively minor role that the conscious mind plays in comparison to the rest of the brain. "The conscious part is like a stowaway on a transatlantic steamship that's taking credit for the whole journey without acknowledging the engineering underfoot," he says.

Presidential Newt Gingrich Answers Hard Questions from Hannity
Appearing on Hannity, presidential candidate, Newt Gingrich discusses his steady rise in the polls and answers his critics. He tells Hannity, "I've voted 7200 times in my career. I've given probably 15000 speeches. I've written 24 books, and have had 13 best sellers. The fact is, if you go through all that, you're going to find plenty of things to throw at me. The question is do the American people care? Are they going to say, "Okay, so the guy has written lots of stuff?" I mean, 24 books is a lot of words. You can find a paragraph here and a paragraph there. I think what people want to know is do I have solutions for America. Am I tough enough to take the heat? Do I have the experience? We've tried four years of inexperience and amateurism, do I have the experience to actually get it done?" Newt discusses his successes that include helping "create the first elected Republican House majority in over forty years, the first reelected majority since 1928. Welfare reform, the largest entitlement to be reformed so far, where two out of three people went to work or went to school, and everyone agrees it was tremendously successful in improving the lives of those who had been trapped in dependency." "We had the first tax cut in 16 years, the largest capital gains tax cut in American history. Unemployment dropped from 5.6 to 4.2%. We balanced the federal budget for four consecutive years and paid off $405 billion in debt. I insisted on strengthening the intelligence budget, and ...

Newt Asked to "Give Three Main Reasons Why Conservatives Should Prefer You."
What are the three main reasons why conservatives should prefer you over Mitt Romney today? First of all, I have a lifetime record of being a consistent conservative working with Ronald Reagan for years, helping him in the 1979-80-election cycle. Helping for eight years while he was president. As Speaker of the House, I've led the first national Conservative take over of the House in forty years, and the first re-election for conservatives since 1928. And my record as Speaker is consistently conservative. Second, for us to win this election, we have to undo Obama's billion-dollar campaign by debating him head to head. And I think most people agree I would be the most effective at articulating our values and our philosophy, and communicating his failures and his radicalism in the debates. And third, I have a track record in Washington. I've balanced the budget for four consecutive years working with Bill Clinton, the only time in your lifetime that's been done. I helped passed the first big entitlement reform, Welfare; two out of three people went back to work. I helped pass the biggest capital gains tax cut in history; unemployment came down from 5.6 to 4.2 percent. Governor Romney is a very smart man and a very good manager. But he's had no experience on the scale of change we're describing. And I think he'd be very good as a manager, if that's what Washington needs; but I think we need a change agent who is going to substantial put America back on the right track. And ...

Twenty-five-year-old Wang Liang suffers from congenital cerebral palsy.

Wang has completed two personal painting exhibitions, and even published a book on traditional Chinese painting in Fuxin city in China's northeastern province of Liaoning. Wang expresses his love for Chinese landscapes through his paintings. [Wang Liang's Painting Teacher]: "Wang Liang's work is large freehand landscape painting. I can feel his happiness by observing him painting. He was not only drawing landscape such as mountains, clouds and waters, but also releasing his feelings from the bottom of his heart." It takes forty minutes on a tricycle to travel from his home to the art classroom. Despite his physical challenges, Wang persists in attending class everyday. While his home doesn't have a lot of space, his easel occupies the brightest spot. The first thing he does after school is always painting.

BLAME SALLY is one of the most powerful word-of-mouth success stories in recent years.. Each of the four women put her individual career aside to start Blame Sally in the San Fransisco Bay-area when they were in their late thirties and forties the age at which bands are traditionally supposed to break up and begin solo careers. Their latest CD is "Speeding Ticket and a Valentine" released on Ninth Street Opus.Water."

Studio Guest of the week
[LESS INFO] 10 VIEWS | ADDED 22:30:00 06/21/11
Our studio guest this week is Jens Krüger from TNS Infratest.DW-TV: First of all, are you on our Facebook? Jens Krüger: Interesting question. Yes, I started to be with Facebook a couple of months ago - five or six. DW-TV: How do you use it for work? Jens Krüger: No, I tried, and now I'm involved for private reasons, as well. I started with business, because, as a market researcher, I'm always interested in opinions and attitudes of consumers. We try to be very well connected - to get more information and more insight about the habits, about what they think about brands and so on. DW-TV: So are social networking sites now a key element for advertizers? Jens Krüger: Yes, I think they will develop in this way and this direction. At least, actually only ten percent of the volume of advertizing spenders goes through the internet or online media, so far as social media (is concerned), but this will increase dramatically over the next few years. This is what we think. That it will completely change, because, it's more or less a fact that, just as we are now talking to each other, that human beings always try to be in contact with other human beings, and so social media will increase dramatically the speed with which people will be connected to each other. DW-TV: So you wouldn't say it's just a flash in the pan - or is it here to stay? Jens Krüger: Of course not. Definitely not, definitely not. DW-TV: How are advertizers changing things, when it comes to targetting consumers directly? Jens Krüger: Well, the targets of the advertizers and the companies who are trying to be in social media and be part of the social media community - they try to gain different targets. First of all, they want to get in contact with consumers - we haven't been well connected up to now, especially not with certain young, urban people, who are very mobile, globally connected. And they want to get a better reputation, as well. And this can more often be better done when you have a dialogue and interaction and connectivity with the consumers. DW-TV: Well, on the topic of reputation, what kinds of things backfire. Jens Krüger: So far, it hasn't happened that much - if you react in a very professional way. And acting in a very professional way on social media means, to be able to neglect (ignore) this kind of negative reputation and say, OK, that's fine, that's negative, but leave it as negative. And don't try to put negative information and negative postings from your community. That way there can really be trouble, and there's one funny example from two or three years ago with very famous producers like Pampers, you know, and he put on some negative features from his own block, and then there was big trouble in the press, through journalists, because it was some kind of Zensur. they tried to do. DW-TV: Censoring, in other words. Social media sites are generally used by younger generations. Are they blocking out the older generation, or other users? Jens Krüger: Well, look at me: I'm not a digital native, as we call this kind of young people who try to be at all times connected to the internet, but this will change. The same (goes) for the usage of the internet in general. Five or ten years ago, there were only forty to fifty percent of the people using the internet; now it's for sure here in Germany seventy to eighty percent. And the people even use it for social networking, as well. And even from my point of view, my mother, now is looking at this iPad. And she was not very keen on normal PCs. But now she tracks the iPad and says, OK, that's easy. It's plug-and-play, and I can use it. So, and she's 75. And sometimes... DW-TV: It's hard to keep up, but she's doing a good job of it. Jens Krüger, thank you very much for joining us.
