From Columbus to celebrity chefs: How food helped shape history
By Amy Athey McDonald
March 4, 2015
Food: It feeds the soul, fuels the body, affects the environment, inspires
artists, influences politics, and impacts just about every part of our lives
. It has been a subject of fascination and entertainment for centuries,
reflected in the beauty of a Dutch still life, the pageantry of a royal
banquet, or even the latest e... 阅读全帖 |

二章
天下皆知美之为美,斯恶已。皆知善之为善,斯不善已。故有无相生。难易相成。长短
相较。高下相倾。音声相和。前后相随。是以圣人处无为之事。行不言之教。万物作焉
而不辞。生而不有。为而不恃。功成而弗居。夫唯弗居。是以不去。
Translated by John C.H. Wu 吴经熊

When all the world recognizes beauty as beauty, this in itself is ugliness.
When all the world recognizes good as good, this in itself is evil.
Indeed, the hidden and the manifest give birth to each other.
Difficult and easy complement each other.
Long and short exhibit each other.
High and low set measure to each other.
Voice and sound harmonize ... 阅读全帖 |

Ahh, I have yet to douse my green mat this day
Baby, myriad mosquitoes teem outdoors at nightfall, so you retire inside the

The freshly sprouting shoots are very frangible and fine-spun. I wouldn’t

There's no denying Feng knows how to lay on a big, populist spectacle. Back
to 1942 has the teeming hordes, the widescreen vistas and the sense of a
tangled, complex drama made simple; boiled down to bullet points. Even so,
its ongoing marriage of bombast and sentiment does grate after a spell. On
screen, the bombs rain down in loving closeup, sending the refugees off in
vast explosions of offal. Then up come the strings on the soundtrack to
remind us how tragic this is. Look: there... 阅读全帖 |

instinctively reached for it when they came to her hospital in Goma in the

Goma itself was a black and grey place, a town built on volcanic basalt

When I have fears that I may cease to be
Before my pen has gleaned my teeming brain,
Before high-piled books, in charact'ry,
Hold like rich garners the full-ripened grain;
When I behold upon the night's starred face
Huge cloudy symbols of a high romance,
And think that I may never live to trace
Their shadows, with the magic hand of chance;
And when I feel, fair creature of an hour,
That I shall never look upon thee more,
Never have relish in the faery pow |

又是一年情人节。又一个晚上要在一边叫外卖寿司、一边观看《唐顿庄园》(Downton

尽管女性在职场上取得的进步深受关注,但对于大多数女性而言,未来幸福的基石仍然

为自己下一次升职所投入的精力。你还在等什么?须知你已青春不再,然而对于你为之

想想看:如果你大学毕业后头10年只关心事业,当你终于开始考虑寻觅良人时,已经30
岁出头了,却要与20多岁的女孩子们竞争。在这场竞赛中,你可能没那么好的运气。如

Naked Science: Was Darwin Wrong? 9/9 9pm ET
"Our planet Earth is teeming with life. To some, it's a miracle - but can
science explain how it came into existence? Critics have attacked the theory
of evolution for 150 years. They claim it is full of holes, and the gaps
reveal the hand of an Intelligent Designer. Who's right? Naked Science
investigates the most explosive science of them all and asks, was Darwin
wrong?" |

l********i 发帖数: 20 | 16 为什么我觉得正相反。这个Willy Decker版虽然看上去很简单,但是却把这个故事的精
髓抽象出来。在保留一些古典的细节的同时有些新的改动非常有创造性。
比如一开场的时钟和医生。医生不是光站那,虽然几乎一言不发但是他却无声地代表命
运推动情节发展。一开始扶住violetta,后来在第二幕结宿violetta 倒地后是他逼退
看热闹的。时钟也是一个很高效的道具啊。
再比如说把Flora啥的全部来男装打扮。这个完全脱离了传统,很有现代感也更集中体
现了Violetta在act1的形象--很有Manon感不是?这一大片压抑的黑和红的对比也更突
出后来violetta感慨在“teeming desert"里的孤独。连个Flora这样的伪闺密都没有了
。说来act 1是很不容易的,一开场,没什么warmup就要开始和full orchestra较劲。
Act2一开场就是花窗帘布很随意的披在很有棱角很硬的沙发上,一下子就把那种慵懒随

“宇宙就是一座黑暗森林,每个文明都是带枪的猎人,像幽灵般潜行于林 间……他必

另外,就算你解释清楚利未记11:21,那申命记14:19怎么办?“凡有翅膀爬行的物是

按新美国标准版圣经:"And all the teeming life with wings are unclean to you;
they shall not be eaten. You may eat any clean bird."
到底蝗虫、蚂蚱能吃不能吃?
再另外,申命记14:7 兔子倒嚼,14:8 猪不洁,不能吃。

怎么单单抓住蝗虫一顿解释4足2腿?人蝗虫、蚂蚱招你惹你了?
