x*******a 发帖数: 11067 | 1 离开NAPA酒乡向南,马不停蹄地过了三番市,最后选在了Salinas小镇歇脚。一个原因
是这里的旅馆便宜,另外一个原因是,镇上有诺贝尔文学奖得主John Steinbeck(《愤
怒的葡萄》的作者)的故居。早晨去了故居,却不开门,只得匆匆在作家门口的台阶上
踩了几脚,便开往几英里以外的Monterey半岛。半岛沿岸就是1号公路,从此一路沿1号
路向南,将会经过颇具盛名的17-mile drive,有传说中最美的海滨景色;著名的
Pebble Beach高尔夫球场,也是一个美丽的传奇地点;最后1号路将沿着加州的海岸线
蜿蜒于海山之间,最壮观的景色在Big Sur附近。去年的这个时间我单独走过一次,从
三藩市开到了洛杉矶,只那一次,便爱上了这条海滨公路。
回想起加勒比的海,那是甜的、腻的、充满热带的兰花和热带鱼的鲜艳颜色的,在记忆
中有碧海银沙和娇艳的暖阳,却也总有潮湿的汗渍引起的不快和沙粒在脚趾间的烦恼感
觉。而在这条路上,只有寒风和无法亲近的礁石海岸,然而在此地、在陡峭的盘山公路
旁眺望浩瀚无边的太平洋,一个人那种“感天地之悠悠”的情绪,真的很容易生长出来
。如果有什么不快的话,来这里... 阅读全帖 |

美国Jawbone破产倒闭
穿戴设备市场被认为是智能手机之后的另外一个热点
许多厂商涌入
但是几年过去之后 人们发现穿戴设备市场空间极为有限
Pebble等公司已经倒闭
而据外媒最新消息
曾经的运动手环巨头Jawbone已经进入了破产清算程序
该公司成为穿戴设备市场的另外一个“牺牲者”。
6月19日,该公司已经根据美国加州法律启动了破产清算过程
该公司聘请了外部机构Sherwood Partners处理清算过程
其中债权人可以在180天内提出债务要求
曾几何时 Jawbone是全世界知名的运动手环制造商
也是美国两大行业巨头之一(另外一个对手是Fitbit)
在穿戴设备市场的颠峰时期 Jawbone曾经被风投机构估值为30亿美元
其股东包括大名鼎鼎的红杉资本 安德森霍洛维茨 Khosla风投等
美国金融机构BlackRock曾经在2015年向Jawbone提供了3亿美元的贷款
这家机构成为唯一获得担保的债权人
大量的民调指出 许多消费者在购买手环一段时间之后
由于功能单调抛弃了手环 也有研究指出手环并未能提高运动和减肥效率

子撞到手臂流鼻血。孩子妈妈报警,然后管理员被warning,向孩子和父母正式道歉。
群众反响:熊孩子。悍妇妈妈无原则护犊。。。。新美国版三娘教子。。。
问题来了:1。警察是要将双方分开,并分别询问双方的。之前态度极其强硬的管理员
难道不会在警察面前说孩子违反规则,并百般自辩?为什么会肯道歉呢?2。管理员说
父母教唆孩子撒谎。为了斗气,父母会宁可牺牲做人底线,教自己的孩子撒谎,可能吗
?3。经验丰富的美国警察是傻瓜,分不出谎言和真相吗?才4岁的孩子能自圆其说吗?
事情真相:孩子根本不是在扔石头,而是在玩pretend play。因为刚跟好几家朋友一起
野营回来,他就跟院子里几个小伙伴一起用高高兴兴用石头片搭“篝火”,然后往里面
扔小石子假装烤marshmallow. 这时管理员看到,以为他们互相对彼此扔石子,就大吼

Z***e 发帖数: 3693 | 15 呵呵,你要是愿意,你不妨做个试验。
不过这里可以做个简单计算,3/16" 的钉子够粗了吧?就算是平头,面积只有 0.028平
方英寸。一般的车往轻了说,2500磅,平均到四个轮子,算600磅吧,那么这颗螺钉对
轮胎的压强也有 20,000 多 PSI。我还没找到官方数据,但我觉得 两万多 PSI,应该
足够扎破轮胎了。
至于你说的 tiny cubic pebble, 由于不够高,被轮胎盖住后,轮胎其他部分还能触地
,pebble 对轮胎的压强并没有高到能对轮胎造成损伤。
如果你还是觉得要做试验才能确定,非常欢迎你来验证我的计算,呵呵。

But i can still take your challenge.
I will play a round at Ranch Golf Club in San Jose (rating 74.5, slope 148

Most likely I will use my Ranch Score to challenge you. I dont expect to do
well on Pebble. //kaka

0600 从OTC出发,5个人,其中一个极新手,一个刚生上了病 DDD SICK OFFICEMATE。
教训是这种事情生了小病也不要去。

0920 从Paradise出发,天可怜见,不会背东西,最后把那双租来的靴子挂在腰间的绳

0930 走出云层,阳光灿烂。继续慢慢地走。过Pebble Creek之后有大面积的雪。不过
雪已经很薄,到处是流水。在Pebble Creek之后半小时赶上那位生病的仁兄,一起慢慢
地走。9000尺之后雪厚一些,不过那个地方已经比较地陡,用上冰爪保险一些。

我印象中这边游泳池的建法是:先来一队人在地上钉上一些板材,钩勒出池子的形状,
这一步叫FORMING;然后挖土机开挖,大概到离FORMING板子3~4INCH的时候停,这一
步叫EXCAVATION;然后管子工来铺上白色的PVC管,供后面水循环用,叫PLUMBING;然
后工人用粗钢筋和细钢筋在土坑里搭上架子,成型后的细钢筋网大概离土壁1~2INCH
,用预制的水泥方块垫着和地底/土壁隔离,这一步忘了,大概叫FRAMING;然后水泥
