At the back of Costco's stores, past the televisions, jewelry, jumbo-sized
ketchup jugs and tubs of mixed nuts, is one of the retailer's most prized
items: The rotisserie chicken that costs just $4.99.
Cheap Kirkland Signature rotisserie chickens aren't only a quick way for

——苏联、中国和古巴共产党革命的比较研究
共产党革命的终结目标并不只是建立新社会,而且也要塑造“新人”:一个在斗争
中锤炼出来的、通过思想改造所升华的、以“无私”为最根本特征的集体人格,并通过
塑造“新人”去创造历史。笔者的这项研究从世界历史的角度出发,以30年代的苏联和
60、70年代的中国和古巴为对象,企图揭示这项以彻底改造人性为目的的社会工程的一
些共同点。
共产党塑造人性的哲学基础是人的可塑性和可完美性。这种对人性的认识直接来自
于欧洲思想传统:启蒙运动、马克思主义、乌托邦主义和俄国激进知识分子改造社会和
人性的尝试。在一定意义上基督教对人性的认识和改造人性的努力和共产党的理论也有
相似性。在实践上,法国大革命时的雅各宾统治是第一次用国家权力重塑人性的尝试,
而形形色色的社会主义和基督教的乌托邦公社则是在较小范围内的实践。
布尔什维克在俄国的掌权是历史上第一次由国家政权推行的、持续了数十年的“新
人”工程,其结果是在1930年代成形的“苏维埃人”。然而,到了1950年代,当苏联社

北京时间8月10日消息,据国外媒体报道,位于英国伦敦北部的一间唱片配送仓库当地时间周一晚由于伦敦的骚乱失火,目前,多家独立厂牌都担心在这次大火中损失惨重。
据了解,位于恩菲尔德的这间仓库一共三层,大约两万平米,归属于索尼DADC,大部分由Pias负责销售的厂牌发行的唱片都在这间仓库中储存。在周一晚的大火当中,这间三层的唱片仓库已经夷为平地。这场突如其来的大火将间接影响到包括Domino在内的一些厂牌以及发行DVD的一些电影制作公司。Pias是英国地区最大的独立销售、营销与分销公司。
其他可能受到影响的厂牌包括4AD、Warp和乞丐盛宴(Beggars Banquet)。乞丐盛宴厂牌的主席马丁-米尔斯(Martin Mills)承认,乞丐盛宴厂牌是有一些唱片存在这间仓库当中,但他在接受Music Week采访时称,乞丐盛宴和其他大厂牌在这场灾难中受到的影响远不如一些小厂牌严重,因为他们在其他的仓库中还有存货。如今,对于这些在大火中受到影响的厂牌来说,迫在眉睫的是尽快生产,以补上在这场大火中被损坏的唱片。
