Ching-Ching Ni, Culture clash in a Claremont center that integrates Eastern
and Western thought; The China Project at Claremont's Center for Process
Studies draws Chinese scholars to America, but the center, and American
culture, can be a surprise for them. Los Angeles Times, June 22, 2010.

(b) "The Center for Process Studies (CPS) is a research center of  Claremont
School of Theology, and affiliated with  Claremont Graduate University."

(i)  Claremont School of Theology
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claremont_School_of_Theology
(Originally founded as the Maclay School of Theology in San Fernando,
California in 1885, the Methodist seminary was founded by Charles Maclay,
founder of the town of San Fernando)

(ii) Claremont Graduate University
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claremont_Graduate_University
(a private, all-graduate university located in Claremont, California;
Founded in 1925, CGU is a member of the Claremont Colleges consortium and is
the oldest all-graduate institution in the United States)

(c) The report describes Dr. Zhang as being "surprised that her American
host did not." Perhaps she means
(i) her host does not have flat-screen TV, or
(ii) her host does not have a high-definition (HD) TV.

"As of June 12[, 2010], full-power television stations nationwide have been
broadcasting exclusively in a digital format. If you’re still using an
analog TV set, you have to connect it to a digital-to-analog converter box
to watch digital programming."

(e) process theory 过程理论

(1) Time flies. I am sorry I made a mistake in my posting yesterday:

"(ii) her host does not have a high-definition (HD) TV.

It should be 2009. And www.dtv.gov makes it clear.

(2) High-definition television in the United States

("A November 2009 survey by Home Media Magazine found that between 33 and 50 percent of Americans have at least one HDTV in their home. Also, 66 percent said they subscribe to HDTV services." Home Media Magazine, November 25, 2009)
