Spoiler!

Yes, Faraday is the son of Widmore & Eloise. Faraday arrives back to the island by sub. He tries to get Chang to evacuate the island by telling him the truth about the island and Miles. He ventures into the Other's camp to talk to his mother who shoots and kills him prior to talking to him.

Eloise is not portrayed as a villain because she doesn't know (at the time she kills Faraday) he's her son. She learns of his plans through Jack and Kate, and tries to see them through with the help of Richard.

Lost Season 5 Spoiler!!!

It opens with an unknown man in bed with a woman. A baby cries. Woman says it's his turn. He grumbles but gets out of bed. Scenes much like the one with Desmond in the Hatch with food being prepared. Man feeds baby and leaves house which we see is in Othertown. He goes into a House which is set up like a TV studio. At this point we see the man is Candle. He is shooting the Arrow instructional video. He says the Arrow station was used for developing weaponry. He is interrupted by someone saying there is a problem at The Orchid.

He goes to the underground. They are digging. They have hit some weirdness which we know to be the donkey wheel chamber. He yells at the foreman for digging in a dangerous area. They know a power source is there that can control time. There are rules that can't be broken. If they release the energy there will be a problem. The shots widens out and we realize the worker he bumped into on the way out is the Freighter Scientist Daniel in Dharma gear.

Lost swoosh.

Future time. We are at the Funeral Home where dead Locke is with Jack and Ben. They talk about pretty much what we already know and seen. They all need to go back. They need to get everyone together. Ect. At the hotel they watch a news broadcast of an escaped mental patient that is wanted for murder. It's Hurley.

Back to the Island. Aftermath of the light.

Locke is no longer with the group of Others. It's raining and he is alone. This surprises him. He starts yelling and running around.

Daniel out on the raft says they were "within the radius" and therefore ok for now.

Sawyer is with Juliette. He is shirtless still. They are wondering what is going on. Bernard runs out of the jungle screaming for Rose. She runs out as well and they hug. Sawyer tells them to calm down and go back to the camp. Bernard says there is no camp. They go to where the camp was and all the 815ers are looking around but there is no stuff. No wreckage. No Dharma food kitchen.

Daniel finds them. He says he knows what's going on. He wants them to go to the nearest place that has "man made" items. The nearest place is the Hatch. They start heading that way. Sawyer is shoeless and shirtless. Sawyer wants answers. Daniel says he can't explain. It would be tough to explain to a Physicist he doesn't know how to explain to Sawyer. He is very insistent that they hurry. Sawyer slaps him. It's funny. Charlotte came to Daniel's defense and was told by Sawyer he'd give her a slap too. He demands to know what is going on right now. He also wants Daniels shirt which he doesn't get.

Daniel explains the island is skipping like a record. Or maybe just they are, he isn't sure. He doesn't know when they are.

Locke is walking in a field. He sees a plane in the distance coming towards him. He ducks as it flies over. Something falls out. It's a Mary statue just like the ones they found before with Boone. He goes to where the plane has crashed. It is the Nigerian plane still stuck on the cliff. He yells but no one answers. He tries to climb up. Halfway through someone starts shooting at him. He gets shot in the leg and falls. That freaks him out but not as much as the man running towards him holding a gun. The man is Ethan. Ethan asks who Locke is and where he came from. Locke tries to explain that he knows Ethan and he shouldn't shoot him. Ethan raises the gun to kill Locke.

The flash happens again.

All of a sudden it's nighttime now and there is no Ethan. Locke is very confused and upset.

Future time.

Sun is at an Airport. She goes to an Oceanic counter to check in. The agent notices her name and asks her to wait. She is thrown into a room when the door locks. Widmore comes in through a different door. He's pissed at Sun for talking to him in front of other people. He demands respect. He asks what Sun wants. Sun says she wants to kill Ben.

---I run out of notes at this time ---

The next part is the fight with Hurley and Sayid at the safe house pretty much the same as the clip that was released. It's slightly extended. While Sayid fights the man Hurley is standing outside holding a gun with blood on his shirt. A bystander snaps a cellphone pic of him. After Sayid wins the fight he is somewhat drugged and he leaves with Sayid.

It begins with a record playing (A woody nelson song) It starts skipping just like season 2 and 3.
Marvin Candle is asleep in bed with a woman. He gets up, turns the record off, and exits his house.
We see he lives in the barracks. He goes in to do a taping of a dharma orientation film.

Director: Morning!
Marvin: I don't need a script
Marvin: Let's go, I don't have all day!
Director: Okay dharma orientation film number 2, take 1. And action!
Marvin: Hello i'm Dr. Marvin Candle and this is the orientation film for station 2, the. Given your specific
area of expertise, you should find it no surprise that this station's primary purpose is to develop
defensive strategies and gather intelligence on the island's hostile, indigenous...
A man bursts in
Man: Dr. Chen!
Marvin: Damn it, what the hell?
Director: cut!
Man: Sir we've got a problem down at the orchid

[We are now taken to an underground area where workers are building the orchid station.]

Man: Over here! We were cutting through the rocks and that's when the drill melted.
Marvin: The drill melted?
Man: Yeah. 3 meters from the margin land on the plans. We went through six pair of drills and the
last one just fried. Then my operator starts grabbing his head and freaking out.

Man: [Couldn't catch it]...20 meters in behind the rock, there's something in there
Man: The only way to get to it is to lay charges here and here.
Marvin: Under no circumstances! This space is being built here because of it's proximity to what is
believed to be an almost limitless energy. And that energy, once we can (?) correctly, is going to
allow us to manipulate time
Man: Okay so what, we're going to go back and kill Hitler?
Marvin: Don't be absurd! There are rules...rules that can't be broken
Man: So what DO you want me to do?
Marvin: You're going to do nothing. If you drill just one centimeter further and release that energy. If that were to happen...God help us all

Marvin: Let's go
A man with a worker uniform and his head down bumps into Marvin
Marvin: Watch yourself!
Man: Sorry Sir, won't happen again
The man lifts his head and is revealed to be Daniel
Worker to Daniel: Did you hear that? Time travel. How stupid does that guy think we are?

[We find ourselves with Ben and Jack in front of Locke's coffin]
Ben: Why don't you close that up now, Jack? Come on, let's get him in the van. It's out back.
Jack: Where are we taking him?
Ben: We'll worry about that once we pick up Hugo
Jack: Hurley is locked away in a mental institution
Ben: Which should make recruiting him considerably easier than the rest of your friends
Jack: [People were laughing, couldn't catch what he said]
Ben: Well that's the spirit...
Jack: How did we get here? How did all this happen?
Ben: It happened because you left Jack
Ben: Now let's get started, shall we?

[Scene of Ben and Jack in a hotel room from sneak peek]


[We see Locke waking up in the jungle by himself.]
Locke: Richard? Richard?! Anyone? Anyone?!

[On the island beach]
Guy: What happened? What was that light?
Daniel: We must have been inside the radius
[A little further away...]
Sawyer: What the hell was that?
Juliet: I don't know
Sawyer: Where's the freighter?
Juliet: Maybe it went down
Sawyer: Nah uh, no way. That boat was coughing black smoke and now there's just nothing?
Juliet: What about the helicopter?
Sawyer: It was heading for the boat

[Bernard comes running into the beach]
Bernard: Rose! Rose!
Juliet: Bernard!
Bernard: Rose! Have you seen Rose?
Juliet: No
Bernard: Oh my god!
Rose: Bernard!
Bernard: Rose where were you?
Rose: I was over there by the church. What was that light?
Sawyer: There's no need to panick. Just calm down. We'll just go back to camp and figure this out
Bernard: There's no need to panick? There is no camp!
Sawyer: What the hell are you talking about there is no camp?
[They walk back towards the camp, which is no longer there]
Bernard: The whole sky lit up and then this!
The kitchen...gone! And all the tents, the food and water...well, everything but us. All of it, it's gone
Daniel [Appearing]: It's not gone
Charlotte: Daniel!
Daniel: Hey
Charlotte: I thought you were in the freighter
Daniel: No we never made it. We were on our way out there when it happened.
Sawyer: What do you mean the camp's not gone? Who the hell are you anyway?
Miles: That's Dan. He's our physicist
Daniel: Listen, we have no time. I need you take me somewhere that was man made, something
that was built. Any kind of landmark.
Juliet: There's a dharma station 15 minutes from here
Sawyer: You mean the hatch? The one we blew up?
Daniel: That's perfect. We should get going before it happens again, okay?
Sawyer: Before what happens again? And why is our camp gone?
Daniel: The camp isn't gone...it hasn't been built yet

[Kate and Aaron scene from sneak peek]

[The group walking towards the dharma station]
Juliet: Why'd you jump off that helicopter?
Sawyer: I told you, we were running out of gas. I wanted to make sure she...
I wanted to make sure they got back to the boat. Don't matter now anyway, does it?
Daniel: Excuse me, i'm gonna need the two of you to pick up the pace, okay? thanks
Sawyer: First things first. Give me your shirt
Daniel: My shirt?
Sawyer: Yeah
Daniel: I really think we have far more pressing matters than getting you a new shirt. Now let's just keep moving, ok?
Sawyer: How about we call a time out so you can tell us what the hell is going on?
Daniel: How about you trust me?
Sawyer: Trust you? I don't know you!
Daniel: we really do not have time for me to try to explain. You have no idea how difficult that would be.
For me to try to explain this...this phenomenon to a quantum physicist, THAT would be difficult.
So for me to try to explain whatever is happening...
Sawyer slaps Daniel
Charlotte: what the bloddy hell do you think you're doing?!
Sawyer: Shut it ginger or you're getting one too
[To Daniel] Now talk!
Daniel: The island...think of the island like a record spinning on a turn table only now that record is skipping.
Whatever Ben Linus did down at the orchid station...I think it may have dislaunched us.
Miles: Dislaunched us from what?
Daniel: Time
Juliet: So that's why our camp is gone? Because the island is moving through time?
Daniel: Either the island is or we are
Sawyer: What?!
Daniel: That's just the way that we're moving...(couldn't catch it)
Daniel: And everyone in your group, you're all accounted for right?
Sawyer: Not everyone....Locke

Q

In the K (terse) and Q (less terse) languages of KDB+, one can express something like this -

drawfrom:{[spec; vals; n]
mon: 0, sums nmlz spec; idx: mon bin n?1.0; vals[idx] }

Basically this reads -

function drawfrom(spec, vals, n)
mon = partial sums of spec (the cdf after normalizing to 1.0)
generate n random numbers uniformly in [0,1]
idx = array of indexes of each random sample into mon
return the values indexed by idx

【转帖】KFC 下篇 之。。。。

这篇是转帖。不过和上篇刚好呼应
 
晚上坐在office desk前,在领导眼皮子底下偷了0.5秒的闲,脑袋里却忙个不停翻了5年的青春旧账
从刚来英国在KFC的第一份工到现在,也算一路跌跌撞撞乱七八糟的啥都干过闯过了
没有什么滔天呼地的牢骚,有的却是这两个极端讽刺的相似:
 
那时通宵达旦的在KFC后面的小黑屋大水池里涮洗着那些就像涂了大便一样的机器部件;
现在加班加点的在窗户外面的小月亮下拿小本使劲背啊记啊猜啊念啊领导懒得教的业务;
 
那时一天到晚死盯着三块屏幕:收款机,菜单屏,还有斜对角可以看到老板在干什么的小窗口;
现在一天到晚死盯着三张屏幕:走势图,下单屏,还有那每分钟跳无数邮件的该死的outlook;
 
以前午餐自己去pos机上摁套餐然后端到员工室细嚼慢咽;
现在午餐打电话给厨房预约做好后给我送到桌上狼吞虎咽;
 
以前喝的东西疯狂偷拿 - 免费!
现在喝的东西随便狂喝 - 还是免费!
 
以前在英国这破岛浪费孤家无价的青春
现在在英国这破岛浪费寡人宝贵的青春
 
想想唯一不同的是:
以前多了少了大不了摁错了也就扔两块鸡
现在笔笔百万上下摁错了我就回家种地养鸡啦

【重贴】KFC 上篇 之 指上鸡油

镇上的肯德基总能找到五光十色的员工,从十几岁的小毛孩到六十岁的老奶奶,从街头的小混混,到中学生,专科生,本科生,硕士生,博士生还有MBA,从母子档,母女档,兄弟档,情侣档,夫妻档到GAY档……应有尽有。不过想想也不会觉得奇怪,不到10万人口的安静小镇,也就只有全年营业364天,每天营业15小时的鸡铺子才能提供如此简单直接而时间弹性的工作机会,每月准时的发着National MinimumWage。尽管每位员工都占据着不同的时段,带着不同的目的去工作赚钱,有为了养家糊口,维持生计,治病救人,勤工俭学,也有为了花天酒地,游山玩水,还有仅仅为了所谓的体验生活。但当我们享用每一块吮指原味鸡的时候,是永远都没法分辨不同,感受到每一滴指上鸡油背后的故事。

鍾景輝式的恶心完了,回到正题。今天边炸薯条边听同事FENG说起他的高中,上海松江二中,那时他们的高中长跑队连他一共有4个人,高一的时候其中一位由于在大街上砍人被监禁,高二的时候另外一位由于在宿舍与一女同学鬼混被退学,高三的时候就剩下他一个了。我很好奇的问:“不是有4个吗?还有一个呢?““哦,那个就是韩寒,他800米没有我跑得快,最后退学去开赛车了。“

要离开鸡铺子了,衷心祝各位做鸡开心!

此文描述的是2005年的情景,所以离题了,FENG同学和他的夫人现在LSE继续追逐着他们的梦,而我还在兰卡时常惦记着啃鸡,仅留此文作纪念 Smile

前赤壁赋 - 对答

苏子愀然,正襟危坐而问客曰:“何为其然也?”客曰:“月明星稀,乌鹊南飞,此非曹孟德之诗乎?西望夏口,东望武昌,山川相缪,郁乎苍苍,此非孟德之困于周郎者乎?方其破荆州,下江陵,顺流而东也,舳舻千里,旌旗蔽空,酾酒临江,横槊赋诗,固一世之雄也;而今安在哉!况吾与子渔樵于江渚之上,侣鱼虾而友麋鹿,驾一叶之扁舟,举匏樽以相属。寄蜉蝣于天地,渺沧海之一粟。哀吾生之须臾,羡长江之无穷。挟飞仙以遨游,抱明月而长终。知不可乎骤得,托遗响于悲风。”
 
苏子曰:“客亦知夫水与月乎?逝者如斯,而未尝往也;盈虚者如彼,而卒莫消长也。盖将自其变者而观之,则天地曾不能以一瞬;自其不变者而观之,则物与我皆无尽也,而又何羡乎?且夫天地之间,物各有主,苟非吾之所有,虽一毫而莫取。惟江上之清风,与山间之明月,耳得之而为声,目遇之而成色,取之无禁,用之不竭。是造物者之无尽藏也,而吾与子之所共适。”

SUPER LOST SEASON FINALE SPOILER

 
Flashforwards
We return to the final scene from last year's finale with Jack at the airport screaming to Kate that they have to go back to the island as she drives off. We now see Kate brake hard, return to Jack -- he thinks she's changed her mind -- but she tells him he's lost it and to stay away from her and Aaron. She also makes a reference to a mysterious "he" -- the person in the obit that Jack showed her. She says "he" came to see her and said the same thing to her that he said to Jack, but that she isn't buying it...
 
Sayid visits Hurley in the asylum, asks if the mysterious "he" has visited him. And that "he" is now dead.
 
Island Story
Alpert and the Others (with Kate and Sayid) attack Keamy, liberating Ben.
 
On the freighter, they realize the bomb is tied to the device that Keamy is carrying. If he dies, the bomb blows. But Michael uses some kind of freezing liquid to slow down the process so the bomb doesn't immediately trigger.
 
Jack makes it to the Orchid. He and Locke have another of their debates about whether everyone should leave the island or not. Locke convinces Jack that if he wants to leave, he has to lie about the island back at civilization. It's the only way to protect the island and survivors...
 
Ben kills Keamy in revenge for killing his daughter (Keamy followed Ben and Locke down the elevator to the Orchid).
 
On the chopper, Jack, Sawyer, Kate and Hurley lift off with Lapidus piloting. But the chopper is damaged and can't carry them all. Sawyer gives Kate a farewell kiss and jumps out(saftly) so the others can make it to the freighter. This is the talked about kiss. It's hardly earth-shattering.
 
In the Orchid, Ben explains to Locke some crazy idea that the island can move t only in space but also in time. Apparently there's some kind of giant wheel hich is entombed in oce thatan move the island.
 
The chopper makes it  to the frieghter, picks up Sun and Aaron. The bomb goes off, killing Michael. Jin is thrown into the water -- looks like he might be dead, but I doubt it. I'll bet Jin will be back next season. Anyway, Jack refuses to go back for Jin because he thinks the chopper is too heavy and that's why Sun is pissed at him.
 
Back at the Orchid, Ben knows that my turning the frozen wheel, he'll also teleport somewere else -- (and by the parka he puts on, we know he'll teleport to the desert, as shown in a previous ep).
 
Ben chips away at the ice around the frozen wheel and manages to turn it so that.. yep, the island moves. I kept hoping right up to this point that it was a fake-out and that Ben had some other plan. But no, the island (and even the surrounding islands) all move.
 
Anyway, ths last flashforward is a continuation of the scene from last year's finale where Jack is in the funeral parlor in front of the coffin. Ben approaches him -- he's been following him -- and Jack tells him that "he" told him has to go back to the island.
 
Then Ben tells him that they have to take "him" back too. They look down to the coffin and inside we see the dead body of .. Locke.
 
Locke is the "he" that all the flashforwards have been referencing. Somehow he must've made it back to civilization, but got killed.
 
The plan must be to return Locke to the island and somehow ressurrect him -- an idea that's up there with the frozen wheel and moving the island.

Paul Merton in China - Camel Toe

Paul Merton 出名口臭样贱,他的节目Paul Merton in China里无所不用其极地讽刺和挖苦中国文化也就不司空见惯了。引用一下youtube里面的一短评论:
"merton is having a pay check on the next day for the way of misguiding audience. I watched the other episodes too, obviousely an 8 week trip experience with accommodation in 5 star hotels,(like ,he stayed in White Swan hotel in Canton)does not qualify a person to make judgement this way. "

 
但是节目中有段片看了真的不是滋味,I felt ashamed of this happening in guangzhou. 
Paul, I understand you are a comedian, but please don't run over the nasty limit - 可耻
Those "educated women" without dignity - 可悲
Those shameless foreign rubbish who think they are "gods gift" just because they get a bit of attention out of their own country - 可恨

Flowers

If the very beautiful flowers go missing, the world must be in shade.

Never say never to flowers. The bright and brocade peonies, the elegant and refined orchids, the clean and holy water lilies or the simple but fascinating primroses... Whatever, there must be a kind can touch your heartstring in the boundless universe.

Flowers become the magic for people sending their loves and wishes. Hanks of well picked, elaborately matched and wrapped flowers are settled in diaphanous vases. Well, pleasing people to both the eye and mind seems gorgeous. But all too soon, most of them can't escape from being thrown to the bin, and the rest, the lucky ones, merely left their empty bodies, fiddled into dried flowers - as we refer to - their destiny.
