Oops, forgot MMU is supporting the Earth Hour.

Postponed Earth Hour?

MMU surely is a big supportor of Earth Hour,
although it comes a little bit late,
but,

it turns off EVERYTHING.
(The dark buildings at the far side are MMU, the buildings with lights are belong to a lousy management team)

快乐需要理由?

人家说,快乐不需要理由;
或许吧,
所以,我找不到一个不需要存在的东西。

Validation, everyone needs it

花十五分钟看一看这一个短片,
如果说之前的"Are you going to finish strong?"是以制造负面情绪来激励,
下面这一段,是以正面思考来鼓励。

很多人都认为,“给予肯定”这件事情,只需做在一般人身上,或许说,较差的人身上,以给与信心与鼓励;却忽略了,天才,也有需要被肯定的时候。
并不是说,天才所作的努力,都不是努力,只因为他是天才。

赤壁 vs 三国

赤壁,自然是在说着吴宇森的作品;
三国,罗贯中笔下的中国四大名著之一。

在赤壁一上映之时,想去看,但没机缘,罢了,等下载。
赤壁二上映,机缘有了,想看的欲望也更胜于赤壁一。
结果,还是没真正去看。

原因:当我看了赤壁二的片段后,很失望,
很,失望。

为何失望?
懂三国的人,都应该知道吧。


刚刚闲着,拿出搁着数月的赤壁一来看,重头到尾,差不多都在数落赤壁和三国之间的落差。


赤壁:刘备率百姓在长坂坡逃亡一战,由关羽,张飞,赵云三人击退曹兵。
三国:刘备逃亡之际,关羽往江夏借兵,击退曹兵的乃张飞。

张飞这一战是非常出名的,他一人站在桥前,威风凛凛,吓得曹兵都不敢向前,且叫兵士在后方的森林弄得沙尘滚滚,以吓敌人。曹操因之前饱受孔明的计谋,又看到张翼德如此威猛,就吓得退了兵。
张飞吓了敌人后,过了河,顺道把桥毁了,过后曹操看到后才懂中计,继续追赶刘备,但被张飞那么缓一缓,关云长的援兵也来得及赶上。

赵子龙单骑护主也是很出名的,当他把尚待哺的少主阿斗带回给刘备后,刘备看也不看阿斗,就把他抛在地上,说差一点为了他而损失一名大将。

经典的两幕,不见了。
取而代之的是曹操因为赏识关羽而放他走;曹操是很欣赏关云长,也曾经放他走,但不是在此时,倒是赤壁之战后,关羽放了曹操一条生路。


赤壁:曹操是因为小乔而进攻东吴。
三国:赤壁一战,是曹操为了歼灭刘备而打的。

在刘备还是听命于曹操之下时,曹操曾说当今之下只有刘备和他自己可称为英雄,刘备当时听到了吓了一跳,手上的筷子也因此落地,刚好当时有雷电,刘备推说自己怕响雷,才逃过一劫。当时曹操就有想灭刘备之心。
过后让刘备给逃了,追到长坂坡,接下来就是要把刘备给灭了,然后占据江东,就没人和他匹敌了。
这一役过后就三国鼎立,那么重要的战事之一,结果却被说成是为了一个女的。
三国也其实有戏言说要把大乔小乔都夺来,在铜雀台上欣赏享受,但也只是戏言。
大乔小乔乃姐妹,乔国老之女;大乔为孙权之兄,孙策之妻,孙策在死前,要大乔把小乔嫁给周瑜。


赤壁:孙尚香参与赤壁之战,且占了很重要的位置。
三国:孙尚香这个名字没出现几次,都是以“孙夫人”来称呼。

孙夫人乃孙权为了灭掉刘备而假意许配给刘备的,但却被孔明使计,让刘备顺利当上孙吴之婿,且和孙夫人安全回到荆州。孔明知道周瑜会派人夺回孙夫人,所以早埋下埋伏,击退吴兵。
这就是“赔了夫人又折兵”的来处。


赤壁:甘兴是周瑜旗下的猛将一名。
三国:根本没甘兴此人。

吴军有一猛将,甘宁,字兴霸,赤壁一战他也有参与,就不知甘兴为何人了。


赤壁:赤壁之战一开始是以陆战掀开,诸葛亮以八卦阵大获全胜,周瑜为赵子龙档下一箭。
三国:赤壁之战都是在水上作战,倒是曹操输了,落荒而逃时是以陆路逃走。

所谓的八卦阵,是刘备军讨伐吴军时所用的策谋,对抗吴军的陆逊。周瑜在赤壁一战后是有中箭,也是为曹军所放,但不是为了赵子龙。
赤壁之战,一点也没用上刘备军,就只是孔明帮助周瑜而已,过后又坐享其成,夺得荆州。


赤壁:神医华佗早在曹营,且献上连环计,把曹操的船只用铁链绑起来。
三国:华佗应该只出现过三幕,一医周泰,二医云长,三医曹操;连环计是孙刘联军所派去的细作,庞统所献上,为了让火计得以发挥其作用。

华佗医治关云长,云长完全不需麻醉,让华佗一面刮骨疗伤,一面和他人下棋。过后,曹操患了头疾,招来华佗医治,华佗说必须以斧头剖开头方可,曹操认为华佗是要杀死他,就把华佗给砍了。
庞统,和孔明齐名;卧龙凤雏,卧龙乃孔明,凤雏乃庞统也。
孔明特地使庞统到曹营,遂献上连环计,以稳定船只,让曹兵不受海浪之苦。
庞统的下场并不好,在落凤破被张任一箭射死。


赤壁:小乔前往曹营,拖住曹操;孔明观天象,告诉周瑜将起东风。
三国:黄盖苦肉计假降,大破曹兵;孔明故弄玄虚,摆七星坦求东风。

欲破曹公,宜用火攻,万事俱备,只欠东风。
用火攻,有三个难处:
一、海上船只太散,火势难以蔓延;
二、船只必须很靠近才能把曹船给烧着;
三、风势,若不得东风,火将烧回己军。

第一难上面以说了,庞统献连环计。
第二难,戏中有说到,但不被周瑜采纳,既周瑜令打黄盖,以获得曹操信任,黄盖假投降,等到船只靠近曹船了,放火烧船。
第三难,戏中的孔明在言及此难时,即名言他懂得观星象,说过几天会有东风;但其实孔明是告诉周瑜他懂得唤风招雨术,要周公瑾设立一个七星坦,说是做法。
其实这是孔明逃路的计谋之一,孔明早知周瑜会畏忌自己而想乘机杀掉自己(要孔明十天造箭其实是想杀孔明的借口),所以就以做术为名,遁逃而去。


赤壁:孙刘联军大获全胜,在最后关头周瑜放走了曹操。
三国:曹操大败,狼狈而逃。

曹操在这一战是输了,他也早逃了,并没有坐着等死,更不是因为周瑜孔明放他走的。曹操在当时挟持皇帝,是当时的大汉奸,那里可能当时的两大势力人物会放他走呢,这是整个赤壁最为荒谬的一幕。

话说曹操落荒而逃,孔明也早料到他会逃跑的路线,布好刘备兵在各处,唯独关羽不被分配任何任务,关羽为此问孔明。孔明答昔日曹操有恩于关二哥,恐怕关羽会放走曹操,关羽说已报恩于曹操,且立下军令说一定不会放走曹操。孔明即令关羽守在华容道,最为关键的路上。关羽走后,刘备对孔明说怕关羽重义气,放走曹操,孔明答他观星象,知曹操命未尽,所以让关羽做个顺水人情。

果然关羽在华容道放走了曹操一军。这也是蛮出名的一幕。




结果,明显了吧,我不喜欢赤壁的原因。
但套句高斯刘说的“罗贯中可以改三国历史,吴宇森一样可以”,
也对,所以,算了吧。


注:上面的三国,都是指三国演义,而不是三国志。

Lucky, am I?

踏入第二年,感受到压力了,
看到周围的人,
又是fail,又是retake,
甚至退出的也不少。


如果再重来,有多少人会同样选择这一科系。



如果再重来,
我还是会选择工程系,
还是会选择电子工程,
或许,
会选择偏向电脑的主修科。


没选错科,
算是很幸运了吧?

P=F/A

There is one thing called pressure,
they define it as the total force exerted to an object, divide by the effective area of that object, which, in contact with another place where the pressure is applied on.

Symbol of pressure is P, formula is as below
P=F/A
with F=force, in unit of N(Newton)
A=area, unit of squared meter

The unit of pressure is N/squared meter, or in another form, Pa(Pascal)

This explains the "cold" joke posted few days before, for those who don't know Physics.

Pressure exists everywhere, and sometimes it's important,
for example, an everyday application, without pressure, we won't be able to suck water through straw.


Sometimes, pressure is not only used with the unit of Pa,
it is sometimes called,
STRESS.

是真?是假?
