遮羞布: English editing from editors' own company ?

Make more willing victims for hand-over of your money: it's conspiracy for those guys working together to rib you off for your

publications. I've seen Editors with ownership of those English editing companies (Ref. 3). it's time for China to rebuttal (Ref. 1) -

Say No to this trend: Often time, it's NOT English issue but Science issue - as those willing peer-review don't know that science specialty of your interest, leading to their discrimination for non-English-name authors. peer-review with integrity will give you a detailed map of your English writing, not simply sending to English editing company to make more money.

 

What comes to my mind this morning from reading my e-mail (Ref. 3): my fellow Chinese, be alert "此事势必存在临界点" - "不得不做取舍" (Ref. 2)

 

English editing from editors' own company ?  That's not ethical, but conflict of interest, outragiously wrong, Heckuva way to make more money. What a world ?!

科研成果的价值不可能由科学共同体自己坐地起价，也需要买家认可

国际学术交流、国际影响力这种说辞很像是一块遮羞布

谁来填平研究与产业之间的鸿沟

 

我们科研的“消费者”是中国纳税人，不是爱思维尔、斯普林格、PLoS、SCI。现阶段那么多人自己花钱为国外期刊、数据库、服务商打工，事出无奈，情有可原，但如果还振振有词就匪夷所思了！

赵小兰

原标题：选老板还是丈夫？美国华裔运输部长或陷尴尬境地

海外网8月14日电 特朗普近期公开批评参院共和党领袖麦康奈尔，甚至暗示他应该下台。共和党战略专家对此分析称，麦康奈尔妻子、华裔运输部长赵小兰在政治圈历练多年，不太可能因此辞职。

据美国《国会山报》（the Hill）报道，虽然有人揣测，特朗普可能因与麦康奈尔交恶，疏淡与赵小兰的关系，但观察者的广泛共识是，在政治圈历练多年的赵小兰不会受到此争议的干扰，而将继续主导特朗普的首要施政之一。

著名共和党战略专家罗恩·邦加（Ron Bonjean）认为：“赵小兰是位圆熟练达的从政者，她专注的是结果，无论在劳工部长或运输部长任内，她都能严谨律己地领导所属部门。她深谙如何落实职责，不会让私人恩怨横阻其间。”

不过，有人预测，特朗普若化警告言论为行动，试图把麦康奈尔拉下台，则可能遭遇更严峻的政治反弹。民主党前宾州州长兰德尔说：“此事势必存在临界点，他（特朗普）如果继续撩拨，并且开始采取实际行动，或是麦康奈尔获得消息，特朗普有意策反其他参议员，到那个时候，赵小兰就不得不做取舍。但是，我不认为赵小兰已面临这个关口。”

((择善固执-- I've read many classic books of thinkers and some of them were read many times. Still feel not much has changed in me by reading those books. In the end, we are who we are, and intentional molding and self-help are of little use. Personality determines fate, and personality is of 90% hereditary, so our fate and destiny were pretty much decided when we were born.
Sorry for being little pessimistic. ))
