At the Olympic regatta on the Henley Royal Regatta course, which only
measured 1900 metres,[17] Bushnell was in the bow and Burnell the stern seat
, or as Bushnell indicated later: "I was on the bridge and Dickie was in the
engine room. In an attempt to avoid the favoured Danish duo of Ebbe Parsner
and Aage Larsen in the semi-finals, Bushnell and Burnell deliberately came
second to France in the first round. According to Bushnell: "Dickie decided
we should lose the first heat so as not to ... 阅读全帖 |

This is what you get with group play. It is far more important to win a
medal than to lose a game. It is a common practice to sacrifice a position
in contests from chess and checkers to baseball and other sports to get an
advantage. This is pure strategy, well within the rules and there is nothing
immoral about it. No rules were broken and no penalty should have been
imposed. If the rules don't pro... 阅读全帖 |

metres short, but the fact that it went against the stream was deemed to
make up the difference. Burnell, ever calculating, decided early upon an
audacious but highly risky route to a gold medal, where the British double
would deliberately lose their heat against the French to avoid meeting
Denmark, their main rivals, in the semi-final. The ensuing repechage
provided an extra race to reach competitive sharpness and smoothed... 阅读全帖 |

价。(以下是转载)

1948年伦敦奥运会双人桨冠军贝尔特-布什奈尔和迪克-不纳,为了在半决赛中避开丹麦
,故意输给了法国,然后果然成功夺得冠军。这一行为,被英国人誉为“有冒险精神的
”和“深思熟虑的”,并被BBC,作为欢迎2012年奥运会的电视主题。唉,一想起英国
媒体的爱国,和这边的表现——我天朝正义凛然以德服人。

古列尔莫·马可尼获得1909年的诺贝尔物理学奖,虽然美国专利局原本首先将专利
给于尼古拉·特斯拉。不过在1904年,美国专利局撤销原先的判决,将无线电的专利权
给于古列尔莫·马可尼。最后在1942年,美国高等法院决定维持特斯拉的专利权,承认
特斯拉为无线电的发明人。汤玛斯·爱迪生与尼古拉·特斯拉曾被认为是有力获1915年
诺贝尔奖的获选人,但他们彼此仇视。虽然两人在当时都有巨大的科学贡献,但最终均
未得奖。当时新闻界流传着谣言指出他们彼此都无法接受对方得奖,也拒绝共同分享奖

2. 乔丝琳·贝尔·伯内尔女爵士,DBE,FRS,FRAS[1](英语:Dame Jocelyn Bell
Burnell, 1943年7月15日-),出生名蘇珊·乔丝琳·贝尔(英语:Susan Jocelyn
Bell),英国天体物理学家,出生於贝尔法斯特。当她还是研究生时,与安东尼·休伊
什一起利用射电望远镜发现了第一颗脉冲星。[2] 她现在是物理研究所的主管。
关于发现脉冲星的文件共有5个作者,安东尼·休伊什位列第一,约瑟琳·贝尔·伯奈
尔列在第二。休伊什博士与莱尔博士一同被授予诺贝尔物理学奖,但并没有把贝尔作为
共同研究者列入诺贝尔奖获奖名单。这引起了争议,遭到了休伊什的同胞——天文学家
霍伊尔的谴责。[3] 瑞典科学院在其新闻稿中宣布1974年诺贝尔物理学奖[4],引用莱
尔和休伊什他们在天体物理学的开创性工作,特别提到莱尔对孔径的工作合成技术的支
持,和休伊什发现脉冲星上所起的决定性作用。约瑟夫·什克洛夫斯基博士,1972年的
布鲁斯奖的获奖者,已在1970年国际天文学联合大会时找出贝尔,告诉她“贝尔小姐,
你已作出20世纪最伟大的天文发现”[5]。 |
