Forever turns out to be too long

好久没来了，贴个上月在SAP Open中看到的former Harverd star James Blake.

Dungeness crab lovers whipping up Louis dressing eagerly await the boats at Fisherman's Wharf for today's start of the season, a culinary event rivaling the arrival of Beaujolais nouveau or Chinook salmon.

About 150 boats set out midday Tuesday from San Francisco, Half Moon Bay and Bodega Bay minutes after owners agreed on a price with processors. The boats are expected to get back today loaded with thousands of pounds of crabs for fish markets.

Fishermen will get $1.85 a pound for their catch under the Tuesday agreement, but consumers will pay an average of $5 a pound. State Department of Fish and Game scientists predict an abundant Central California crab population this year.

Very nice, leave it for NYC or LA.

 

 

 

Laure showed stunning dancing skills in 54321 and Crazy Love, in addition to her standout performance in Sandy's 为你我受冷风吹. She really has a strong base and fast learning ability. Great potenial Laure, keep going. You will be among the greatest.

 

At the same time, Justine beat Maria in straight sets to reach the final of WTA championships and secured her year end No.1 Ranking. Maria, the only cotender of the year end no.1 ranking beside Justine, was in from and on a 19 match winning streak coming into this match. However, unlike her three straight set win group matches, Maria started slow and trailed 0-3 in the first set. Justine took the advantage and played smart, and finally was able to close the match in the second set tiebreak. What a nice revenge.

 

 

 

Justine successfuly got her revenge on Amelie and won the year end championships for the first time. I could not believe that both played at such a high level, considering both were tired after a long year plus four tough matches with other top 8 players in the past five days. Justine was apparently more determined than Friday this time and clinched the victory in two perfect sets. Her year end No.1 ranking is even more convincing by the consecutive wins over current world No.1 and No.2 in the semis and finals match. 

 

Justine, Maria, Amelie and Kim, thank you for your extremely high level tennis in the semis and finals. You guys make women's tennis more competitive and entertaining. Hope you all have a good 2007.

昨晚是鬼节之夜，各地乱子不断。与San Francisco游行集会的枪击事件呼应，San Jose发生了一起爆炸。事件发生于约晚上七点三十分，地点是位于San Jose的一Paypal的高层建筑外。爆炸粉碎了该办公楼一层的玻璃墙，吓坏了里面的45名员工。幸运的是，没有人在爆炸中受伤。目前，该楼已经关闭。不过，据ebay的发言人表示，ebay和Paypal的业务一切如常，没有受到该事件的影响。

 

据悉，受影响的高层建筑共有四层。

 

总说尚尚是大黑马，虽然站在大众角度事实可能确实如此，可我心里总是不能认同。什么丑小鸭变白天鹅，从一开始见到她，就理所当然地觉得她应该走得很远。湖南卫视和天娱不知积了几辈子的德，办个超级女声，在去年捧出了LYC, ZBC和ZLY之后，今年又得到了SWJ这块赤金的垂青。好事多磨，这个老天派来的礼物居然在杭州和成都失败了两次，竟然没有放弃，坚持等到了广州的“知性三人组”；在顽强地顶过十强入围和十进八两次PK后，在自身素质和水平已经很高的前提下，不断弥补自身的不足，进步飞速；同时，评委和观众欣赏水平已更快的速度进步着，终于在总决赛前与三的水平达到了同步。

 

看了今天搜狐十全十美的歌友会和访谈，尚同学在我心目中的地位再次升级。由于昨晚半夜才由沪抵京，今天节目下午2点就要开始，留给三儿准备和排练的时间相当少。为了配合她的单曲，更是在超女舞台上第一次大段秀出舞蹈。看着她在彩排时一有机会就不停扭动，在别人吃饭时一遍又一遍与伴舞合练，觉得这丫头还真是认真好强。应该说排练最后一两遍时，效果已经不错了。可惜的是，正式演出时，开始话筒出故障，声音忽高忽低，节奏也没找准，后来好不容易找回来了，一个热情过头的歌迷又在舞蹈中送上了一大把鲜花...对于这些，三同学只是淡淡地说：这是我第一次尝试快歌，还有舞蹈，所以大家看过笑过就可以了...只有自嘲，没有丝毫借口和客观理由。

 

然后便是面对采访。对于一个刚踏入娱乐圈并且以前没有任何类似经验的新人来说，记者来势似乎过于凶猛，问题似乎过于刁钻。不过三同学表现出来的风范更是精彩。对于记者对她复旦学历的质疑，她不慌不忙，先问消息从何而来，记者答"宋祖德“，三同学一脸迷茫：宋祖德是谁啊？瞬间网络上叫好声响成一片：多响亮的一个耳光啊！接下来面对记者咄咄逼人的关于家庭等个人隐私、对娱乐圈负面新闻的看法以及个人发展规划等追问时，三同学更是毫不含糊，对于不愿或不能直接说的，运起了太极大法；对于可以说的，则回答得条理分明，丝丝入扣。这哪里是一个娱乐圈的新人，分明是一个外交官的苗子。今天北京媒体似乎对三儿格外卖力，多少冷落了另外两位，尤其是维维，几乎没有什么问题，绝大部分时间就是呆坐在一旁，神情落寞。坐镇主场的力扬同学表现差一些，偶尔会语无伦次，说什么“我们的工作就是娱乐大众，只要大众娱乐了我们干什么都可以“之类的，不过也勉强可以应付；维维虽然是老江湖，但是今天她看三三侃侃而谈时的表情，分明让我回想起广州总决赛她为三儿拉票轻松飚起青藏高原时，三儿看着她谭姐姐的崇拜眼神。（访谈实录参见:http://post.baidu.com/f?kw=%C9%D0%F6%A9%E6%BC)

 

今年的超女结束了。今天，这些脱颖而出的选手已经站在了新的舞台上。这是一个成功的开始，希望大家，尤其是三三，都能如她所期望的那样，在音乐上有更好的发展。
