- [收藏]China's virtual vigilantes: Civic action or cyber mobs?
China's virtual vigilantes: Civic action or cyber mobs?
By Peter Ford | Staff writer of The Christian Science Monitor
from the November 28, 2008 edition
Beijing - Some call it a weapon in the hands of a righteous army, forged so that wrongdoers might be smitten. Others say it simply allows a mob of vigilantes to publicly vilify and humiliate anyone they choose to pick on through grotesque invasions of privacy.
Either way, the peculiarly Chinese Internet phenomenon known as the "human flesh search engine," a citizen-driven, blog-based hunt for alleged undesirables, claimed a fresh victim this month when a mid-ranking government official lost his job.
Accused of accosting a young girl, Lin Jiaxiang found his name, address, phone number, and workplace pl

- 意大利旅行琐碎笔记
2008.1.30晚上11点半到bergamo机场,坐8E的bus,费时一小时到米兰中心火车站。事先订的旅馆就在附近,花费了一番时间找到,然后checkin。旅馆是www.thebesthotel.it. 在hostel的portal网站订比较便宜,经验证明千万不能直接向旅馆订,价格差很多。这家旅馆设施和服务不错,就是洗澡空间太小,关到里面几乎无法转身,害我撞青了胳膊肘。包早餐,有cappucino,面包,cheese, butter,以及一大堆包装的饼干和果酱。早餐时间7点到8点,逼人早起,倒也不错。
2008.1.31-2008.2.1在米兰逛街,买地铁的天票,3E,来去比较方便。在名店林立的区域见识了米兰的奢华。没在街上见着模特,倒是有不少穿着皮草的老太太。看到不少中国人,有拿着相机拍店里服装的,我想是要回去copy吗? 去Gucci店帮弟媳淘钱包,预算100E,结果看到便宜的极其丑陋,好看点的都在250E-300E左右,作罢。从店员那探听到在duomo教堂附近还有两家卖Gucci的,不过估计找不着,价格也差不多,就这么算了。Gucci店里看的多,买的少,亚洲人不少,看到一群日本MM,也是看了之后没买。接待我的店员亚洲面孔,会说日语,不知哪里人氏,最后知道我不买,别过脸去把货放回架子上,想必心有不满,不过她也应该习惯这种顾客了吧。

- Visual Language
摘自:
http://english.unitecnology.ac.nz/resources/resources/exp_lang/visual_intro.html
Visual Language
Students should explore various forms of verbal and visual communication and analyse the interaction between words and images, thinking critically about the meanings and effects produced.
English in the New Zealand Curriculum, page 39
In the past, education concentrated on reading and writing: until quite recently, even book illustrations were often seen only as embellishments or helpful accompaniments. In English in the New Zealand Curriculum, the study of visual language is included as an integral part of the study of the English language.

- Rhythm
摘自: http://english.unitecnology.ac.nz/resources/resources/exp_lang/putting_words.html
Rhythm
English is a very rhythmical language. Rhythm is not only found in poetry.Thee rhythm can be heard when we count aloud:
five / ten / fifteen / twenty.
The stressed syllables are lengthened in five and ten, and shortened in fifteen and twenty, so that the words with two syllables are about the same length as those with only one.
The rhythm of English speech is produced through the combination of the stressed and unstressed syllables. This is like a beat and is especially easy to distinguish in rap.
Nursery rhymes sound especially rhythmical.

- 瑞典姑娘很强大
继阉割了军徽上的雄狮之后,瑞典姑娘又在游泳池胜利裸胸。北欧人民就是敢于开风气之先,不服不行。

瑞典一家游泳馆上周首次公开表示,将允许妇女们在游泳池内不戴乳罩游泳。
中国网1月14日报道 女人凭什么不可以像男人那样光着上身在游泳池中尽情戏耍?一群瑞典妇女为争取男女平等勇敢地“挺胸而出”,坚决捍卫女人在游泳池内不戴胸罩游泳的权利。这场“裸胸运动”始于去年9月,两名年轻女子在瑞典南部的乌普萨拉市一家休闲中心游泳时没有穿比基尼泳装的上衣,工作人员要求她们遮住胸部。由于两位姑娘拒绝这样做,她们被强行赶出了游泳池。一些对此不满的女性遂成立了“裸胸”活动小组,积极组织裸泳活动。
据瑞典当地报纸1月9日报道,瑞典妇女的“裸胸游泳运动”已取得了首个重大胜利,瑞典一家游泳馆上周首次公开表示,将允许妇女们在游泳池内不戴乳罩游泳。
“裸胸”女权主义者组织认为,男性在游泳馆可以裸胸游泳,而女性却不能这样作,这是一种歧视行为。她们为此进行了数个月的抗议活动,活动分子于秋天开始试图裸胸闯入瑞典主要城市的游泳馆,她们在乌普萨拉市、斯德哥尔摩市、隆德、马尔摩

The best scene from Jean-Luc Godard's Alphaville: Une etrange aventure de Lemmy Caution (1965).
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHikpdf8ktM
Your voice, your eyes, your hands, your lips... Our silences, our words... Light that goes, light that returns. A single smile between us. In quest of knowledge, I watched night create day while we seemed unchanged. O beloved all, beloved of one alone, your mouth silently promised to be happy. Away, away says hate; Closer, closer says love. A caress leads us from our infancy. Increasingly I see the human form as a lovers' dialogue. The heart has but one m

- 网站的首页设计(顺带给5D的建议)
前段时间,翻出公司做的几个网站案例,给一个在芬兰做网站的朋友看了看。那人一看就说:呵呵,很中国的网站,首页上那么多字。我只好说:是哦,不过设计得迎合客户需要,客户要那个样子,我们也没有办法。
由此思考网站首页设计的问题。
国内的首页设计似乎一直有个套路,这个套路从何而来? 我认为sina,163,sohu这些门户网站的设计套路一直在影响其他小型垂直性的网站。而这些门户网站的设计套路似乎是来源于报纸杂志这些平面媒体的设计,也许是因为中国的网页设计师大多从平面设计转行而来。
现有门户网站的套路设计,其特色就是在首页堆砌庞杂的内容,似乎要以此彰显网站内容的丰富。这种设计对门户网站是利是弊,不是我在这里要探讨的,我所要说的是,门户网站的这种设计套路对企业、学校等小单位的网站或者某个行业的垂直性网站是不合适的。
就网站首页的功能来说,我认为有两大功能,一是导航功能,二是橱窗功能。而能够凸显这两大功能的设计,才是好设计。
所谓导航功能,就是网站所有的次级栏目能通过首页链接得到,换言之,浏览者能在首页上获知这个网站的所有栏目设置,并且能够由此到达所有栏目。(这一点,第5版的5D网站的版头做得非常棒。)
导航有多重要?一个很好的例子就是那个很简单但是很成功的hao123。网络经济时代,很多人靠投机取巧而成功。关键是怎么取巧。hao123的巧思在于,它本身相当于一个网站首页,而那些跟它毫无关系的网站被它当作了次级页面。对于浏览者来说,一个导航功能出色的首页是访问次级页面的必经之地。因此hao123这个仅有导航功能的网站可以赢得巨大的访问量。而这个“首页”访问量根本是建立于“次级页面”的存在,几乎是不劳而获得来。当然,hao123对“次级页面”链

- 不加生鸡蛋的提拉米苏的做法
个人观点:加生鸡蛋的作用是用蛋黄液和糖化开mascarpone并使它有甜味,用蛋白液混合mascarpone,使奶油涂层比较丰厚。从口味上来说,加不加生鸡蛋,差别不是很大。由于吃生鸡蛋实比较冒风险,网上流传两种消毒方法,一是用化开的120度糖水浇到蛋液里,然后搅拌,二是在烧开水的锅上再架一个传热较好的并且比锅大的盆,在盆内搅拌蛋黄液。我认为如果鸡蛋里有沙门氏菌或者禽流感,那两种方法都没有多大用处,只是心理安慰罢了。要想彻底安全,最好是不加生鸡蛋。试验了两种不加生鸡蛋的办法,做法和效果如下。
1. 将一点咖啡、一点牛奶和些许糖拌匀。把混合好的溶液加入mascarpone中,搅拌至较稠密的半流质状态,以此作为提拉米苏的奶油层。
效果:由于奶油层不是很稠,最好直接放在最后要上桌的一人份的容器里,一个个单做。这样不会因为上桌后被分食而被挖得稀里哗啦,影响美观。在冰箱冷藏2小时后就食用,以免饼层被浸润过度。
2.用做法1的办法把mascarpone变成半流质之后,加入搅拌好的heavy whipping cream,使奶油层丰厚。heavy whipping cream不要加太多,以免影响mascarpone的原味。
效果:由于奶油层较厚实,即使在冰箱冷藏一夜,饼层仍然疏松。这个做法适合做一大盒多人份的,上桌后大家分食。
贴一张做法2的效果图,吃了一半时拍的照片,可以看到里面的饼层仍然疏松,这是在冰箱冷藏了一夜之后的样子:
