耳边风

待了15天，在走之前一天才有机会随便逛逛。

不到灾区，怎知道情况之惨烈？不吃几个余震，怎能体会一点点灾民的恐惧？

两个月没在这里写什么了。

明天入川。 

BBC有强烈倾向性的报道。相比照片下错误的解释，这样貌似义正辞严，公平冷静的“真相问答”才是最为阴险的。
　　
　　Q&A
　　What sparked the protests?
　　
　　Buddhist monks marched from monasteries in and around Lhasa on 10 March to mark the 49th anniversary of a Tibetan uprising against Chinese rule.<用这句开头绝对是高招，直接和去年底缅甸事件形成逻辑联系，暗示喇嘛们其实是“和平示威”的，而政府则是“暴力镇压”。>
　　
　　According to reports<谁的报告？是西藏流亡政府吗？还是到处打了几个电话？>, security forces arrested some of the marchers<既然言之凿凿地有报告，那么some是多少？>, and the following day more monks marched through the streets to appeal for their colleagues to be freed.<这句很毒，完全把责任归到了中国政府。>
　　
　　As the protests escalated, economic and social grievances came to the fore<继续强调责任在中国政府>, and more members of the general Tibetan population became involved in the monks' protests.<强调起了 暴 乱有“民意基础”>
　　
　　There were confirmed reports<那是，12分钟的官方录像是无论如何不能装作看不见了> of mass rioting on the streets of Lhasa. Protests and violence were later reported in areas of Gansu, Sichuan and Qinghai provinces, which are home to sizeable Tibetan communities.
　　
　　<以上这段将少数破坏分子的暴 行完全跳过。连轻描淡写都没有>
　　
　　The protests were fuelled by day-to-day grievances<继续强调责任在中国政府>, as well as a desire for Tibetan independence.<顺道做一下广告>
　　
　　Many Tibetans are angry at the increasing numbers of Han Chinese migrants arriving in the region, accusing them of taking the best jobs.<恩，有工作是罪，不工作才是王道！>
　　
　　Tibetans feel they have been left behind by the economic boom which coastal provinces have enjoyed<那能不能再来点数据呢？西藏的人均收入在30年里是升还是降呢？>, yet they are suffering from China's accelerating inflation. <全中国都在面临通胀，难道大家都应该理直气壮地 暴 乱？>
　　
　　最后，我们重温一下Jon Williams的话：“The BBC has no agenda - our job is to report all sides of the story.”就算中国政府一错到底，那引用一下这个"side"提供的东西，也是未尝不可的吧？
　　
　　媒体机构可以没有Agenda，但你能洗去手下记者，编辑和制作人心中的偏见，或者既有价值判断吗？
　　
　　原文

This could be the saddest dusk
I've ever seen
Turn to a miracle
High alive
My mind is racing
As it always will
My hand is tired, my heart aches
I'm half a world away here
My head sworn
To go it alone
And hold it along
Haul it along
And hold it
Go it alone
Hold it along and hold, hold

This lonely deep sit hollow
I'm half a world
Half the world away
My shoes are gone
My life spent
I had too much to drink
I didn't think
And I didn't think of you
I guess that's all I needed
To go it alone
And hold it along
Haul it along
And hold it
Blackbirds, backwards, forwards and fall and hold, hold

Oh, this lonely world is wasted
Pathetic eyes high alive
Blind to the tide that turns the sea
This storm it came up strong
It shook the trees
And blew away our fear
I couldn't even hear

To go it alone
And hold it along
Haul it along
And hold it
To go it alone
And hold it along
Haul it along
To go it alone
And hold it along
Haul it along
And hold it
Blackbirds, backwards, forwards, and fall and hold hold

This could be the saddest dusk
I've ever seen
Turn to a miracle
High alive
My mind is racing
As it always will
My hands tired, my heart aches
I'm half a world away and go

(R.E.M - Half A World Away lyrics) 

1988：第一次吃生日蛋糕
1995：第一次在家请同学吃饭同庆
2001：拿到一只限量版Sony Walkman
2003：第一次和心爱的女孩儿一起过
2006：第一次在异国他乡过
2008：一个人过，和我在异国他乡最甜蜜的梦

I, I wish you could swim
Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim
Though nothing, nothing will keep us together
We can beat them, for ever and ever
Oh we can be Heroes, just for one day

I, I will be king
And you, you will be queen
Though nothing will drive them away
We can be Heroes, just for one day
We can be us, just for one day

I, I can remember (I remember)
Standing, by the wall (by the wall)
And the guns, shot above our heads (over our heads)
And we kissed, as though nothing could fall (nothing could fall)
And the shame, was on the other side
Oh we can beat them, for ever and ever
Then we could be Heroes, just for one day

We can be Heroes
We can be Heroes
We can be Heroes
Just for one day
We can be Heroes

（David Bowie - Heroes lyrics） 

我不会变老。在我的未来，我是一个发光体。

无聊根源：未来写真馆 

Its been playing on my mind
I don't want to waste your time
and the thought of you is tearing me apart
Had a name but now that's gone
I don't know where I went wrong
now I'm all alone and drifting in the dark
Take me back to what I know
cos I don't know where to go
and I'm finding it so hard to stay in tune
But it's hard to comprehend
getting closer to the end
and I hope that I'll be feeling better soon
Now I'm just a fading light
but I want to feel alright
and I hope that you can help me through the days
And I find it hard to sleep
cos I sold myself so cheap
do you think about me when I go away.

(Teenage Fanclub - Dumb Dumb Dumb lyrics)
