Hurricane Katrina Anniversary
Well, I would say the 20 percent of the city that’s been rebuilt looks fantastic, looks absolutely great. If you’re staying in one of the hotels along Canal Street, you won’t be disappointed. Eighty percent of the city that’s been … Continue reading

Evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins explains why God is a delusion, religion is a virus, and America has slipped back into the Dark Ages
Once again, evolution is under attack. Are there any questions at all about its validity? It’s often said that because evolution happened in the past, and we didn’t see it happen, there is no direct evidence for it. That, of … Continue reading

Candidates@Google: Ron Paul
Not until today I found that Ron Paul as a conservative republican is even more likable than Hilary Clinton. Lower taxes benefit all of us, creating jobs and allowing us to make more decisions for ourselves about our lives. We … Continue reading

UNO图书馆的新DVD
借了几部片子都还不错。最喜欢一个小成本影片,Conversation(s) with Other Women,有点象舞台剧。 He met her 12 years ago, and they had a fling. He never forgot her, but she left for England, two husbands and a daughter. 婚礼上的重逢,戏剧化的对白,电影自始至终都是两个画面,分别代表男女主人公的主观印象,以及他们渴望合二为一的努力。 She has returned to the United States … Continue reading

Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.
"How can you research the future?" people keep asking. "It hasn’t happened yet." I argue that the past is either forgotten, or it hasn’t finished happening yet, either – nor will you understand the present till it’s over. So we … Continue reading

相聚芝加哥
我姐不大喜欢到处旅游,所以当我听说她要去芝加哥一个好朋友家过四十岁生日时感到非常意外。因为有好几年没见面了,我决定从戴顿开车去芝加哥,约了姐姐在中国城吃饭。芝加哥的收费高速经常堵车,我虽然出发早,但到中国城已经快过了早茶时间,差点没吃到点心。之后坐地铁到市区看了94层高塔(The Hancock Observatory),几个标志性建筑尽收眼底,还给姐姐照了相,满足她到此一游的需求也好回去向同事宣传一下芝加哥。我上回和LD开车来芝加哥是六年前了,天气没有这么热,坐船在芝加哥河上欣赏建筑被风一吹还有点凉。那时真是年轻,芝加哥不过是我们横穿美国的一个驿站。如今要一个人从芝加哥开回新奥尔良,心境已然变了很多。

The Clink
On the site of the original Clink prison, there is a fascinating exhibition examining some of London’s unsavoury past. The prison is known as The Clink from the 15th century and was owned by successive Bishops of Winchester. From the 12th century … Continue reading
