France's decision to advance into Cambodia came only when it feared that British and Siamese expansion might threaten its access to the largely unmapped Mekong River, which, it assumed (incorrectly), would provide access to central China. In 1863 French naval officers from Vietnam persuaded Norodom to sign a treaty that gave France control of Cambod

- touche posted on 10/11/2007每个人的幽默胃口不一样，所以幽默也有人见人不同的一面。幽默和油腔滑调的划界，我想每个人也是不一样。比如Leslie Nielsen演的《裸枪》(The Naked Gun)，我看了无法不大笑。与其说幽默，不如说“糙麦”。古往今来的幽默英雄，我个人首推马克*土温，但土温有时也是很糙的。 幽默跟性格，见识有关，也是不能强求的。 咖啡里还活着的各位（因conflict of interest 我当然要回避），让我笑得比较多的还是老哇，尽管他常常一本正经地忧伤。其他的，不时偶然露峥嵘。比如玛雅，苏三，疯子等等。古典的幽默是比较温婉的。大家也各有贡献。 幽默是�
- touche posted on 10/08/2007Just saw the movie. Don't expect much other then sex. It is well-acted but it is one that doesn't register, i.e. it doesn't have the impact that a good movie leaves on you when you have reached the credit part of it. It probably broke the new ground in terms of graphic sex in serious movie-making. On a scale of 1 to 5, I give the movie 3 or 3.5. And I think one will remember the movie as something like The Last Tango in Paris.
