k******i 发帖数: 5774 | 1 Tracy McGrady is prepared to pursue a career in baseball, the former seven-
time NBA all-star confirmed on Tuesday.
The story was originally broken by McGrady's former coach with the Houston
Rockets, Jeff Van Gundy, during ESPN's NBA coverage on Friday night and
further investigated by Randy McIlvoy of KPRC in Houston. Both indicated
that McGrady was deep into workouts with the Sugar Land Skeeters of the
independent Atlantic League — including occasional meetings with Roger
Clemens — and very se... 阅读全帖 |

不过,根据他打篮球的态度
我猜他也撑不了几天
但也有可能这是他真爱
最后进mlb也不一定,哪怕是class A也好

Dear John, oh how I hate to write.
Dear John, I must let you know tonight,
that my love for you has died away like grass upon the lawn
And tonight I wed another dear John.

I was overseas in battle when the postman came to me
He handed me a letter and I was just as happy as I could be
Cause the fighting was all over |

o***s 发帖数: 42149 | 9 阿不思是拉丁文中白色的意思,因为邓布利是与黑魔头伏地魔对立的白魔法师。邓布利多根据罗琳自己说是“蜜蜂嗡嗡叫”的意思。珀西瓦尔(Percival)有武士和刺穿帷幕之意。显然,邓布利多是一位与黑暗势力英勇抗争的武士!而“刺穿帷幕”则耐人寻味,因为帷幔在西方文化中是一种象征生死之隔的事物。将生死的界限刺穿,是否意味着邓布利多有凤凰那样的超越生死的本领呢?伍尔弗里克(Wulfric)的意思被那个没有统一的解释。有人分析它是有Wulf(狼)和Ric(力量)两个单词组成。但也有人认为这个单词源自挪威史诗中的英雄Beowulf,他曾经两次战胜过妖怪Grendel,而邓布利多一生中取得的最辉煌的胜利则是在1945年战胜了格林德沃(Grindelwald),有人认为伍尔弗里克这个名字是曾在埃克赛特大学修习古典文学的罗琳女士用挪威史诗来喻指邓布利多在反对黑魔法方面的伟大成就,介意彰显其魔法力量。布赖恩(Brian)来自爱尔兰语,是“力量、美德”的意思,它也被用来之爱尔兰男子。这个单词高度概括了邓布利多“伟大”的两个方面能力与德行,同时也很可能暗示这邓布利多的爱尔兰血统。

If the White House thought the image of Obama allegedly skeet shooting would
quiet critics they were sorely mistaken.
He’s full of skeet!
Gun owners lampooned President Obama as Elmer Fudd yesterday after the
White House released a photo — in the middle of a fierce national firearms
debate — of the commander-in-chief shooting clay targets at Camp David over
the summer.
While the president’s shooting skills were being mocked, his own gun-

朴树演唱的《后会无期》同名主题歌专辑封面
郭敬明和韩寒一路拼杀,《后会无期》和《小时代3》各种狭路相逢,二者在早期宣传中都主打男色牌,《小时代3》集结柯震东、陈学冬、锦荣等新旧花美男阵容,《后会无期》则祭出冯绍峰、陈柏霖、钟汉良三大男神撑场,吸引无数花痴粉。
两部电影不光在“视觉”上缠斗,昨日更是同时推出电影歌曲。阔别乐坛超过10年的朴树献唱《后会无期》主题歌《平凡之路》,瞬间刷屏各路文艺青年;而小四则力推《小时代3》主演陈学冬初试啼声的《不再见》,对打的意味昭然若揭。
截至昨天下午6点,《平凡之路》在韩寒微博的转发超过25万,韩寒和朴树合力主打情怀遥遥领先,但郭敬明宣布在上映日再推人气偶像吴亦凡翻唱的《时间煮雨》,“拼歌”的硝烟将会愈演愈烈。
第一拼:同日打歌
韩寒拉朴树凭情怀取胜
不管你是否关注郭寒之争,昨日你的朋友圈或微博可能都会被一首歌刷屏。相隔十年,那个唱《白桦林》、《生如夏花》的朴树凭借着一首《平凡之路》回归,很多粉丝听完之后唏嘘:“十年前,你说生如夏花般绚烂;十年后,你唱平凡才是唯一答案。”然后各种转发和怀念,《平凡之路》堪称是继李宗盛的《山丘》之... 阅读全帖 |

《Young Victoria》是2009年英美合拍的时代剧(period drama/costume drama)——
时代剧的定义是以豪华服装、场景及道具逼真再现具体历史年代。本片请来很多历史专
家考订细节,制作严谨。这些王冠皇袍的奢侈程度比起国内尚有距离呀:
年轻的维多利亚女王穿着基本以蓝、灰、黑为主调,几乎没有亮色。当个女王那么惨…
…不过还是获得了当年奥斯卡最佳服装设计奖和英国电影学院奖的服装、化妆奖。
故事讲述维多利亚女王自小独立不屈,拒绝妈妈软硬兼施的摄政要求,否决各种政治联
姻,最后和比利时Albert王子真爱偕首……看完感慨政治场上没有纯粹的爱情,只有千
丝万缕的利益、地位、智力的角逐,挺无奈的。另外,高攀女王是蛮伤男人自尊的一件
事。Albert无权向女王求婚,必须等女王开口。女王在这群各怀鬼胎的追逐者中... 阅读全帖 |

居然不知道这样一支球队.以前只听说过Houston Astros和Texas Rangers!
麦蒂推特确认打职棒
随后,麦蒂也在推特上确认这则消息,他在推特中写道:“我正在星座球场与糖城蚊子
队一起训练投球。儿时的梦想即将成真。”
麦蒂今年已34岁,但他一直保持着良好的体型。据休斯顿记者报道,麦蒂已经训练了两
个月,他能够投出每小时90英里(144.84公里)的球,他可能以投手身份开启新的职业
生涯。
1994年2月,第一次从NBA退役的“飞人”迈克尔-乔丹曾签约一支小级别联盟的棒球队
,并正式开启了棒球生涯。时隔20年之后,同样宣布退役没多久的麦蒂是否会步乔丹的
后尘?近期应该就会有明确的答案。 |

l*****a 发帖数: 3630 | 26 Are you watching the current baseball game?
If you are a SP, a lower-90 velocity is acceptable. For RP, there are so
many young hurlers throwing 95+ fastball. Unless you have extremely precise
control, a soft-tossing RP can hardly reach to the majors. |

k******i 发帖数: 5774 | 33 90麦每小时相当于40米每秒
baseball的尺寸是投手到捕手大概60尺,即18米
也就是说打手只有18/40 = 0.45秒的反应时间(包括得完成击球动作)
TM的臂展惊人,转动半径大球速只会更快,
加上职业教练的指导的话,绝对就不会有0.45秒的时间给打手

had to do with his frame.
Randy Johnson is 6'10". But early in his career, he was not as dominant as
he was later. One major adjustment he made was that he changed his mechanics
and made his release point about one foot closer to the home plate. This
gave him an advantage of between 0.01 second and 0.02 second, in terms of
the reaction time by the hitter.
He was mostly a two-pitch pitcher, fast ball and slider. Of cours... 阅读全帖 |

现在的黑洞学说有一个问题,就是information paradox. What it means is
basically that all the information trapped with a black hole goes with black
hole. When a black hole dies, all the information is lose. This is not
exactly in sync with quantum mechanics, where information is expected to
conserve one way or another.
Hawking's new theory, according to what I read from popular media, suggests
that the so-called event horizon is not absolute, i.e., after information is
trapped by a black hole, it can ev... 阅读全帖 |
