中国自己的磁悬浮列车!

Filed under: tech, China

刚发现这条新闻, 很高兴啊! 我们自己也有这样的技术了!

沪杭磁悬浮正式获国务院批准 杭州到上海不到半小时

■全长约175公里,工程总概算约350亿元■预计2008年建成,2010年上海世博会前投入运营■浙江段正线全长约105公里,全线高架,设杭州东站和嘉兴站■正常运行速度为450公里/小时,中心城区内不大于200公里/小时

磁悬浮列车 (magnetically levitated train,or simply maglev train,or maglev) :
磁悬浮列车分为常导型和超导型两大类。常导型以德国高速常导磁悬浮列车为代表,利用普通直流电磁铁电磁吸力的原理将列车悬起,悬浮的气隙较小,一般为10毫米左右。常导型高速磁悬浮列车的速度可达每小时400-500公里,适合于城市间的长距离快速运输。

超导型磁悬浮列车也称超导磁斥型,以日本为代表。它是利用超导磁体产生的强磁场,列车运行时与布置在地面上的线圈相互作用,产生电动斥力将列车悬起,悬浮气隙较大,一般为100(!)毫米左右,速度可达每小时500公里以上。

速度比较:
普通汽车   150公里/小时
普通火车   160公里/小时
高速火车   300公里/小时
F1赛车    350公里/小时
磁悬浮列车 430公里/小时
喷气式客机 750公里/小时

终于看了BBM

挺感人的故事,很漂亮的风景和摄影,很好看。除了有点儿恶心的gay激情戏。

对白实在听不清楚,大概牛仔真就是这么说的吧。
哦,最后的那首歌真好听。

排除gay 的情节,把Jack 和 Annis 的感情看作是两个男人之间的纯真友谊,被生活压抑了的友谊, 是不是也可以呢?

Malacca

Filed under: travel

Just had a 2-day trip to Malacca during my daughter’s 1-week school break.
It’s a small city , we used half day to go around those historical sites by our engaged taxi. Our driver, Mr. Cham Fook Onn, is very friendly. This is him:

I am not good at speaking, let my lens talk. Here are some Pictures of the city—-
Dutch Square

what a pitch I could even not shoot a panaroma of the scene….

Malacca is known for its traditional Baba (local born Chinese man) and Nyonyas (woman) culture Next is the famous Baba House Hotel,
Baba House

Malacca is also famouse of its baba and nonya food. We spend sometime to find the good baba food restaurant. when we arrived only to find that it opened in 6pm, and so do the other 3 restaurants.

Baba Restaurant

Our first meal in malacca is the same famous “chicken rise ball”, it cost me RM3.00 :
chicken rice ball

and Mr. Cham told us one of the two best chicken rice ball stalls. Both only open until 3pm. it’s very crowded everyday.

It’s a good place worth walking around with your camera, I am afraid we still missing some interesting places due to tough time. I wish to visit it again someday, not that rush….

现代化与历史教科书

Filed under: China, 中国, copymania

中国青年报的《冰点》专栏是这篇文字导致关闭的。值得留下来。
摘自东南西北

现代化与历史教科书
袁伟时(中山大学教授)

  21世纪的中国人,面对的是顺之者昌、逆之者困的全球化趋势。与此同时,中国的现代化事业进入了关键时刻。在这个年代,决定公民和国家发展成败的最重要条件是制度环境,但公民的心智状态对自己乃至国家和社会发展的影响也十分巨大。

  20世纪70年代末,在经历了反右派、大跃进和文化大革命三大灾难后,人们沉痛地发觉,这些灾难的根源之一是:“我们是吃狼奶长大的。”20多年过去了,偶然翻阅一下我们的中学历史教科书,令我大吃一惊的是:我们的青少年还在继续吃狼奶!

Sleepless for Chinese Figure Skating Pairs

Filed under: Uncategorized, China, Olympic

In my untrained eye, all last 5 pairs, 3 from China, 3 from Russia all performed perfectly.
But Zhang Dan is really tonight’s hero. She resumed unbelieveable after a brutal fall when trying the most difficult “Salchow quadruple jump”, and finished the whole performance, the pair got a silver at last. They are the real winner! and I also cannot help tearing for the brave girl.

the hero worth my whole sleepness nite! Bravo! zhang Dan! Viva zhang Dan!
