I was checking out the weekly deals on the Best Buy website. They have
Seasame Street: Once Upon a Monster for Xbox 360 listed as $9.99. However,

From musical Jekyll & Hyde
Once upon a dream
I was lost in love's embrace
There I found a perfect place
Once upon a dream
Once there was a time
Like no other time before
Hope was still an open door
Once upon a dream
And I was unafraid
The dream was so exciting
But now I see it fade
And I am here alone
Once upon a dream
You were heaven-sent to me
But it wasn't meant to be
Now you're just a dream
Could we begin again
Once upon a dream |

I'd recommend "A Deepness in the Sky" to anyone who finishes
"A Fire upon the Deep." It talks about three thousand years
ago when Pham Nuwen was still a legendary hero in the human
kind inter-stellar space. It's not as rich or thougt-provoking
as "A Fire upon the Deep," but still full of interesting
ideas and storylines.
One interesting observation:
"A Fire upon the Deep" was written in 1992, the dawn age of
the web, when the author could easily envision a galactical
usenet.

在文学与数学之间“搭桥”
——读《跨越缺口——故事中的数与逻辑》
葛之
故事与数字并非如人们想象的那么不同，事实上，它们之间有令人惊奇、引人入胜的联系
。逻辑和概率的概念，都是从某些故事如何演变的直观想法中发展起来的。
自从1994年A·怀尔斯证明了费马大定理，欧美公众对数学的兴趣程度提高了好几个百分
点。而《跨越缺口》（原名Once Upon a Number）等畅销书的出版，更是将数学、逻辑的
价值向公众作了成功的普及。短短几年内，怀尔斯成了当今最著名的数学家；《跨越缺口
》的作者J.A.保罗斯则跻身于有史以来最有名的“数学故事家”之列。
“Once Upon……”是西方的一种习惯用法，其中文意即“从前……”，同样有讲故事的
味道。Once Upon a Number直译为“从前有个数”，这个别致的名字把数字和故事联系在
一起。也许会有读者感到茫然：好的故事让人津津乐道，回味无穷；而数字和逻辑给人的
感觉却是严格、枯燥乏味的。这两者怎么可能有关联呢 |

Once upon a time,
I stepped on half a dime.
For the other half, I searched the playground,
but wished for a pound.
I stumbled and so flied the half dime,
in a curve ended in a lily pound.
I heard giggles as resonating as chime,
before I turned my body around.
It is the girl from my neighbor,
in her hands a snow-white lily flower.
She shrouded me with a smell of thyme,
and left on my bruised lips a taste of lime.

Trustee's Deed upon Sale是指现房主可能是银行，也可能是其他人。如果房主是银行
，就意味着在银行法拍屋拍卖会上（Trustee's Sales）无人竞价，而被银行收回的，
又称REO。如果房主是其他人，就意味着此人在拍卖会上竞拍成功，用现金将此房买下
