  • 大爱无疆真情在——悼念杨旭东先生

    作者:蔡洁,牛顿中文学校

    【张川曾任我校成人形体健美班教师。2014年2月4日川的先生杨旭东因一场车祸而遇难。我校许许多多的师生参与协助川善后处理。校长肖广松代表学校参加了旭东的追思会。作为全过程的目击者,我将此事如实在此报道。人的生命是脆弱的,而人间大爱的力量永远坚不可催。】

    为老杨送行

    早春二月大地还没有复苏,冬眠的波士顿仍然覆盖在茫茫的白雪之中。通向Lexington的波士顿郊区华人圣经教会之路尤如一条白色的挽联饱蘸着人们心中的悲哀缓缓向前延伸。2月15日一个难忘的日子,清晨人们从四面八方赶耒为一位事业有成,家庭幸福,对朋友情同手兄,对长辈力尽孝心,对儿女父爱恩重,对员工视如家人的好伙伴,好朋友杨旭东送行。朋友们习惯的称他老杨,于2月4日上午九时不幸因车祸遇难,享年57岁。

    走进大厅,肃然起敬,主席台前鲜花与挽联簇拥着老杨的遗像,幻灯片流动着老杨的油画杰作,展示着 作者生前非凡的艺术才华。一曲《同一首歌》轻轻徘徊荡漾在凝固的容气里,庄严肃静的气氛感染着到场的每一位耒宾。容纳400人的大厅坐无虚席。

  • 东莞扫黄与正名同步

    【来自《法制晚报》】“你真正了解东莞吗?” 2月10日晚,广东省人民政府新闻办公室在其官微上发布了一条微博:“因为勤奋,这里制造着全世界1/5的数码产品;因为包容,这里吸引着千万人生活……”在同一天,东莞市人民政府新闻办公室官方微博“莞香花开”也陆续发布了多条展示东莞城市形象的宣传片,力求展现“真正的东莞”。

  • 华人维权团体、网站联合呼吁阻击加州SCA5宪法修正案

    [联合授权发布] 阻击 SCA5 提案,加州人民在行动: 今天您签名了吗?

    【波士顿双语网2014年2月22日联合声明】大家好。经过这几天的酝酿发酵,相信大家一定对SCA5有了详细的了解。经过多方争论与对加州立法流程的研究,我们认为,否决SCA5提案最直接有效的途径,是影响拥有投票权的议员们。所以,现在这个阶段,我们最需要争取的是民主党55名议员,特别是其中可能存在的摇摆派。
