haha ~
I love this movie very much !
(of course, Amy Adams is one of the reason ~)
Except movie, I bought the book & soundtrack.
The soundtrack has not sold in Taiwan.....
so... ^^" I got it from Amazon.com
anyway... I'm listening the soundtrack now...
oh~~~~ wonderful~~~~
and the composer of this audio-album isAlexandre Michel Gerard Desplat. He seems a famous film composer~~~ ha ~ I find it just now..... in fact, I don't buy soundtrack usually..... somehow..... I'm attracted to it recently = =a (for instance, I ordered another one/ Sherlock Holmes) most of my friends cannot undertand that you can get these music from ....somewhere... ^^" and why do you spend your money on audio-albums ????????? hm.... I linten music through a CD player in my dorm.... so I need a source namely CD to feed it !!!!! haha ~ and as you know a better aoudio-system can provide you better performance ~ whatever, I would not tell them reasons..... just smiling..... here are to many things, it's not essential to explain why, what, how, .... blabla... to people ~ I enjoy myself ! hope you can find the way to enjoy yourself, too. perhaps I'll ask you' why' or some stupid questions .... haha~ do not mind.... i just ask.... ^^
It seems that it's going to rain at any time ......
(= = I've to take umbrella or raincoat as wanna leave my lab. or dorm .....)
shunshine~ sunshine~~~~
I need you ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I excerpted and highlighted some sentences from this article (MIT media relations).
...... .....
................... The first goal of the Copenhagen Wheel project is to promote cycling by extending the range of distance people can cover and by making the whole riding experience smoother so that even steep inclines are no longer a barrier to comfortable cycling.
Toward this end, the Wheel can store energy every time the rider puts on the brakes, and then give that power back to provide a boost when riding uphill or to add a burst of speed in traffic.
"The Wheel uses a technology similar to the KERS (Kinetic Energy Recovery System), which has radically changed Formula One racing over the past couple of years,” says Ratti. "When you brake, your kinetic energy is recuperated by an electric motor and then stored by batteries within the wheel, so that you can have it back to you when you need it. The bike wheel contains all you need so that no sensors or additional electronics need to be added to the frame and an existing bike can be retrofitted with the blink of an eye.

................
But there are also a variety of extra functions hidden within the hub of the Copenhagen Wheel. By using a series of sensors and a Bluetooth connection to the user's iPhone, which can be mounted on the handlebars, the wheel can monitor the bicycle's speed, direction and distance traveled, as well as collect data on air pollution and even the proximity of the rider's friends.
"One of the applications that we have discussed with the City of Copenhagen is that of an incentive scheme whereby citizens collect Green Miles — something similar to frequent flyer miles, but good for the environment," says Christine Outram, who led the team of MIT researchers.
....... “For example, the Wheel has a smart lock: if somebody tries to steal it, it goes into a mode where the brake regenerates the maximum amount of power, and sends you a text message. So in the worst case scenario the thief will have charged your batteries before you get back your bike."
The initial prototypes of the Copenhagen Wheel were developed along with company Ducati Energia and the Italian Ministry of the Environment. It is expected that the wheel will go into production next year, with a tag price competitive with that of a standard electric bike. According to Claus Juhl, CEO of Copenhagen, the city might place the first order and use bicycles retrofitted with the Copenhagen Wheel as a substitution for city employee cars as part of the city's goal to become the world's first carbon-neutral capital by 2025.
The Copenhagen Wheel team at MIT is composed of Christine Outram, Project Leader, ..... The project was developed for the City of Copenhagen in cooperation with Ducati Energia and with the support of the Italian Ministry for the Environment.
I realy feel free now .... and cannot concentrat attention on anything = =a
due to I revised the manuscript and prepared the power-point file till 04:00 a.m. ...
It seems I have to promote my techniques of time mamagement !!!!!
or I'll always suffer this painful process ....
About today's meeting,
in fact, I enjoyed it very much ^^~
(perhaps that can attribute to I presented whole slides in Chinese ^^")
So many useful comments, constructive suggestion, challenging, ......
I sincerely & deeply appreciate so many kindnesses you showd me ~
I took this photo in a coffee shop in Kaoshiung last year ...?
last year...? oh~ I remember this!!!
last year, I went to KMU to give a talk about 'physics & theory in SPECT' ~
and to while away the afternoon ... I went into this shop ~
I was attracted to the upholstery ~
I annotated this at the time:
find a place, and sit ~
do what u want to do, indulging myself in imaging ~
my so-called life ~
