城市不可貌相

没想到居然还可以跟昨天的帖子凑成一个系列的
话说我一直对CINCINNATI DOWNTOWN印象不太好,感觉就是老黑成群没什么人气
今天有机会在正午的时候去DOWNTOWN一趟是缘于这两天在CINCINNATI举行的一个CONFEREN
CE
这个会是由LAM FOUNDATION举办的关于LAM这个疾病的基础研究与临床进展的会议
LAM=Lymphangioleiomyomatosis
不会念吧?我也不会念,
实际上志愿者在会场卖的T恤有一件上面就写“can you say Lymphangioleiomyomatosis"

它的意思是淋巴管平滑肌瘤,简单的说就是平滑肌细胞入侵肺组织,包括气道、血管和淋
巴管,这些平滑肌细胞在气道、血管和淋巴管壁上形成束状结构,阻塞管腔,影响呼吸所
有会场里许多病人代表都随身携带氧气瓶。
以下是中文和英文网站

LAM FOUNDATION就在CINCINNATI,所以每年会组织一次年会,每个SESSION之前还有病人代
表发言鼓励研究者和医生。对LAM的了解也是最近一段时间才逐渐清楚,主要是TSC基因突
变导致MTOR通路活化,所以现在有用雷帕霉素(就是mTOR的抑制剂)治疗LAM的CLINICAL 
TRIAL
好,说完学术说到主题
我一直以为DOWNTOWN是个挺无聊的地方但是今天中午开车去的时候发现了路上有很多人,
有游客模样的带着相机,有年轻人三三两两的HANGING OUT,今天又是阳光明媚,很多人在
市中心的广场上一边晒太阳一边聊天吃快餐,很是惬意。就像NYC,CHICAGO,DC,BOSTON这些
城市的DOWNTOWN繁华地带一样,要是没有高楼也后欧式,顿时改变了我对DOWNTOWN的一贯
映像。
顿时后悔没有随身带着相机拍一拍。
所以,文末点题,人不可貌相,城市不可貌相,WE ARE SOMETIMES TOO CYNICAL
但是,我还是不会在天黑以后在DOWNTOWN瞎逛的[:D]

人不可貌相

实验室的人在看,我凑过去看了一眼
什么叫人不可貌相啊,看看开唱前后评委和观众的反应

杂七杂八

N久不更新了还是写点东西吧
辛辛那提的天气基本上做着一天夏天一天冬天一天晴天一天雨天的钟摆似的运动
看着今天的艳阳高照基本可以判定明天就会又是江南似的黄梅天,简直比STOCK MARKET还
好预测
前天吃饭的时候有同学说在http://www.threadless.com/  买T恤
跑去看了看确实有很多很有意思的衣服,在米国的同学可以消费消费[:)]
国内么,要是真想要的话我可以负责搬运哈哈,都是熟人我就收个100%的手续费好了[:D]

不过更有意思的还是这些T恤基本都是网友自己设计的,而且有艺术细胞的同学们也可以梦
想下靠此赚钱
详情见http://www.threadless.com/submit
像我这种photoshop玩的和play station一样烂的PS白痴,还是文字T恤更适合一点
比如http://www.typetees.com/score
相信每个人总会有那么大脑走火的一霎那说出过什么有意思的SLOGAN,不妨一试
今天就在听着JOURNAL CLUB的时候突然脑中浮现出"man doesn't regret because of mee
ting something better but feeling unsatisfied about current status." (人后悔不
是因为遇到更好的事物而只是对现状不满?)
好吧,我承认这句话一点都没力度,还不如抄袭下HOUSE MD的风格来个
Regret is for sissies或者 Better is overrated听起来爽。。。
话说回来,不知道如果我去印一批F**K ETS的文化衫站在新东方门口叫卖会不会生意很好
。
不过其实当有一次知道了我们系里的老美GRE都考了多少分之后我的心情早就爽了很多热烈的笑脸
啰嗦完了,继续实验~

赚美元在国内花~

经济下降,如何有效的控制自己的财产?
比较俗的办法是将自己的钱转化成固定资产
比较“不俗”的做法是将钱转化为知识。。。[:L]
没办法,再没文化有时候也还是想弄两本书来看看的
显然是中文书最佳,电子书实在是不习惯,有意思的小说还可以
稍微严肃点的还是拿着真正的书,闻着油墨才看的下去
经过认真的研究
发现目前最便宜的方法是从卓越(现在是亚马逊中国)订书
只要购物车里的书都是在库存里的,基本上就会被认为是一个包裹
一个包裹列不管多少书就是106元人民币的运费到米国了,查查海运的价格就知道106是什
么概念了!
打击一下人的说,比你FEDEX份申请材料还便宜
而且显然是买的越多越划算,加上卓越上书都是有打折的,最后加上运费的话说不定比你
去新华书店搬还便宜
于是善于花钱的某同学就订了26本书。。。顺利的被QUALIFY成一个包裹。。。
顺利的用米国的卡付了帐(自动按比价换算)
本来以为是要一个月的,没想到。。。今天就收到了[:D]
只要两周,从DHL香港寄出来的
所以,有闲钱和兴趣想在米国看中文书的可以考虑下卓越网,反正付账之前确认清楚运费
就好了
当当网的海外运费是书的原价的50%。。。。。你要是买本打4折的书那你运费就比书本身
贵了
PS:1)DHL很快在米国就不做普通客户这一块了貌似,不知道运费会不会有变化。。。
   2)如果付过账了以后你有的书暂时缺货,那卓越会分开寄,缺货的书不收你运费

Another baseball post: offseason trade

Center Field Coco Crisp traded to KC Royals for a nice setup man.
Just write down what I think the Theo is trying to do here, see if my guess today will become true :-)
1) After Coco trade, Red Sox got another setup man in the bullpen, so potentially Justin Masterson would be moved to starting pitcher next year
2) Which means Red Sox could be less demanded to Clay Buchhloz, and a possible trade of him to Texas Rangers for Salty. Eitherway, Theo will try to solve the current/future catcher problem this season.
3) So Red Sox is also not that desperate about start pitching. All the rumors about chasing aggresively for AJ Burnett is just for driving up the price for Yankees, in turn Lowe could be a possible signing if pirce is accepted. But don't worry about after Tim retired, there's a guy called Michael Bowden. But basically Yankees would have increase their offer to get CC Sabathia to make sure he won't go to west coast, and also increase offer for AJ. I would say Yankees will eventually get CC, Burnett to go with Wang and Andy Pettite.
4) So what's all these set up for? A huge contract to compete for Mark Tex. Boston defeintely wants him, and now they have money to go after him, and they tried increase Yankee's spense on other position. (Although NYY has too much money). Anyway, i can see Mark Tex comes to Boston, would say 60-70% chance. And I don't think Youk play RF is a good idea. That could happen sometime but not always. If they could find out big deal for Lowell, that will happen soon after they got Mark Tex. But since Lowell just got surgery so there may not be a team wanting him. The solution for Theo may be keeping him play Lowel/Mark/Youk on two positions and wait for Lowell's trading value to increase during the season. Youk could be traded too, since in a few years you have to face to sign Pedroia, Youk, Ellsbury, Papelbon long time. The team may not be able to sign them all anyway. So if they get Tex, the position problem could be solved during next season.
5) Lugo might be traded to Detroit or may not. Theo may keep him till his value increases. Red Sox from manager to batter is just so "patient" for the "strike in the right spot". So Lugo/Lowrie/Pedroia may share 2B and SS.
6) Captain V-Tek might return on a two year deal. 70% chance
 
So possible line up in later next season
1. J Ellsbury
2. Pedroia
3. Papi
4. Mark Tex
5. Youk
6. Drew
7. Bay
8. Lowrie
9. Salty
I would say it is .......a really tough line up.....monster
