Bump the demo.
strictly speaking lace pus r not noiseless. I ever butchered a lace gold pu
and saw how they did it. There is no noise cancelling coil in it. instead
they use a wrap around magnetic core thus it shields the coil against hum
and EMI.
Don't have any idea about the holy grail though. It looks totally different
from the regular lace sensor line. more like a fender pu to me.

来自主题: Rock版 - (ZZ) 談翻唱 结语 (10) 徐雋
從「唱什麼」到「誰在唱」,從六0年代民謠到迷幻搖滾,乃至七0年代前衛搖滾、f
usion及 krautrock,流行音樂已經和一個世紀前的古典音樂一樣,開始走上「超人」與
「非人」的方向。
不再在意「唱什麼」,也就是從表意 (signification) 變為各自表述 (signifying) ;
聽者好像聽到了什麼──演奏者/演唱者無限擴大的存在感,但又好像什麼也沒聽到。
現代樂手以樂器和歌聲作為召喚的工具,這種召喚不僅是宗教的,也是情色的:樂器歌
聲是法器與權杖,也是陽具和子宮。聽者自願被催眠、麻醉、插入、包裹,以放棄外在
的理性來換取內在的快感和安全感。抽離意義的歌詞成了咒語,不再與外在的語言脈絡
相關。
那麼,我們可以說:音樂一開始是人類用來輔助語言建立理性的工具──它約束/過濾因
慾望產生的噪音,使自身成為理性的放大器;然而隨著理性崩壞,現在的音樂反而成了
非理性的放大器──噪音不再受理性的約束,而許許多多的個人噪音,已成為當今全人
類的無邊喧囂。
在這個時代,「理體中心主義」 (logocentrism) 不再是唯一獨大的意識型態,與它一

MITBBS关于宋的谑误太多。
为了忠于历史,我特意上传英文原版影音和英文稿。请注意这个稿子是宋亲自准备的,
是历史上第二个女性有机会在美国国会演讲,也是第一个中国人这样做。这个讲演有重
要的史学意义. 请别忘了,她当时是代表整个中国来作这个讲演的。在抗战的早期,她
多次去前线劳军,冒生命危险,死里逃生,数次受伤。她和努力和民国政府给当代的
PRC留下了许多历史遗产如:联合国发起国,联合国安理会常任理事国,许多世界一流
的科学家和艺术家,包括两弹元勋等。这些历史贡献是超越意识形态的。
这个演讲应该编入所有华人学校的英文教科书。

Referring to an object or a person as "basic" has a variety of connotations.
When used to refer to people, it can mean a criticism of shallow
materialism[citation needed]; in songs that use the term, popular luxury

wear them are buying rather than earning their fashionableness and social

关于用词
最常翻译成英文新约里“Lord”的希腊词是“kurios”,说的是某个有权力、所有
权和无可置疑的指挥权的人。一个相近的希腊词despotes有时候也翻译成新约里的“
Lord”,意思是一个对下属有绝对控制的统治者。Murray J Harris教授这样解释两个
词得区别:“显然despotes和kyrios的意思大部分相同;都可以翻译成lord或master。
如果我们要区分两个词的侧重,kyrios表示“sovereign Lord”,despotes表示“
absolute Lord”
两个词在新约里都用来指耶稣是主。比如,约翰13:3,耶稣取用了kurios给自己:

来自主题: SciFiction版 - 阿西莫夫太节棍了!
最近翻出阿西莫夫作品全集来重看,真挺有意思的,不仅囊括了他最早期那些名不见经
传的短篇,还有自己写的“创作感想”。看到TRENDS那一篇,居然发现他在1938年(当
时他还在读大学)成功预测成两件事:1)1940年第二次世界大战,2)1970年,人类登
月。
两件事都只差1年而已!
我一直觉得那个SF黄金时期的创作高峰,后来者很难翻越……
下面附TRENDS 的原文。
TRENDS
John Harman was sitting at his desk, brooding, when I entered the office

the question...What if?

THE GHASTLY ORDEAL OF TIMOTHY CAVENDISH
One bright dusk, four, five, no, my God, six summers ago, I strolled along a
Greenwich
avenue of mature chestnuts and mock oranges in a state of grace. Those
Regency residences
number among London’s costliest properties, but should you ever inherit one
, dear Reader, sell
it, don’t live in it. Houses like these secrete some dark sorcery that
transforms their owners into
fruitcakes. One such victim, an ex-chief of Rhodesian police, had, on the
evening in qu... 阅读全帖
