桑弧蓬矢,也不太玩了。

芬兰

对芬兰的了解有:千湖之国,造纸业发达,Nokia 手机,圣诞老人的故乡,纬度最高的首都赫尔辛基。前几天去芬兰出了个小差,还了解到气候真不咋样。那两天的天气可用悲惨来形容。

没有多少空余时间,只去岩石教堂和国家博物馆看了看。

网志姻缘

格志上,zqyin 报道Cosmic Variance Sean CarrollCocktail Party PhysicsJennifer Ouellette,通过网志结识,决定结婚了。Sean 是个理论物理学家,Jennifer 是个科学作者,更重要的是他们都是很活跃的科学 blogger。:)Jennifer 在说明她为什么选择了 Sean 时,说了这么段话:

But the real reason is best illustrated by this: On Wednesday, after I’d finished my blogging duties at the Industrial Physics Forum in San Francisco, we drove to his new home in Los Angeles via the “scenic route” along the coast. At sunset, we stopped briefly to refuel and to admire the brilliant orange, red and purple hues stretching across the horizon, and savor the peaceful sound of waves lapping against the shore. It was the perfect romantic setting to cap off a long and tiring several days. Sean is nothing if not romantic. So he put his arms around me and whispered, “Wouldn’t it be fascinating to take a Fourier transform of those waves?”

Sean 不是一般的浪漫哦,他的浪漫也不是一般女士能体会的,所以他们真的挺般配。这必将成为科学网志圈的一段佳话。
