Sound of Music 电影的中文翻译 Mar 2, 2015

Thanks Steve for more interesting details about this classic movie and story. The Von Trapp family house in Vermont looks grand with strong European flavour in its architecture. It must be a memorable experience for you in that business-private-combined visit even though you didn't get to buy a souvenir for yourself.

Thanks Steve for more interesting details about this classic movie and story. The Von Trapp family house in Vermont looks grand with strong European flavour in its architecture. It must be a memorable experience for you in that business-private-combined visit even though you didn't get to buy a souvenir for yourself.

I only managed to buy a pictorial book in Chinese which introduces the Salzburg site at the tourist shop near the entrance. I spent most of my time appreciating the different shooting spots and took my own pictures (which I showed one in my last post).

On a side note, I also noticed the three different translations for "Sound of Music" as follows:

国内: 音乐之声
香港: 仙樂飄飄處處聞
台灣: 真善美

Presidential portrait Mar 4, 2015

QHE,

Thanks. Not that they really look that much alike. But from a distance, this particular presidential portrait isn't that well-done IMO.

撒谎的严重后果 Mar 4, 2015

Back when I was living in New York ... Mar 4, 2015



... Brian Williams was a newscaster for WCBS, the CBS affiliate TV station that covered the NYC area. Once I heard him say on the air, out of nowhere and in all seriousness, that he got his good looks from his mom and dad - not a big deal, but man, I thought he was so full of himself.

Even then, for the past few years I still often tuned into "NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams", the name of which is no-longer incidentally.

Steve,

I think Peter Jennings is much better.

Yes, indeed. Incidentally, neither of them finished college. I think success and fame had gone to Brian's head. Really, who wants to listen to a serious network news anchor tell some fish stories?

It was revealed years later that each week's show was taped twice in front of different audiences and the best parts from each taping were edited together.
...

Tim Conway improvised during much of his appearances on the show which would cause the other cast members - especially Harvey Korman - to laugh during taping. The cast breaking character became a popular part of the series.



Vicki Lawrence was on a roll playing Mama in the alternative taping ...

Spring in Britain 春天在英伦 Mar 8, 2015

农历正月十五元宵节 (前天)象征春天的来临。

上星期到英国中部的曼撤斯特 Manchester 公干。当日难得阳光普照、风光明媚,火车快速奔驰,沿途只见蔚蓝天空、湖光倒影、春意怏然,令人眼前为之一亮。急不及待,马上拿出手机在高速的火车上将美丽的春色拍下,与大家分享。

也将暖意送上。

暗暗庆幸,春天真的临到英伦。

清豔可人的水仙花好像也急不及待地要来代表春天的来临,互相争妍斗丽

我将在下一个帖子与大家分享在曼撤斯特的一些见闻。
