What Is FLAC?
FLAC stands for Free Lossless Audio Codec, a leading compression technique that preserves original audio quality while reducing file size. FLAC is an open-source, royalty-free format that has been adopted widely for its many advantages in digital audio reproduction.
Compression techniques take large files such as wave (.wav) files and reduce the data bits while preserving as much of the audio landscape as possible. A well-known audio compression format is MP3 (.mp3). MP3 files slim down bulky wave and compact disk (.cda) files to a fraction of their original size, making MP3 an ideal format for portable audio players. The MP3 format allows a vast library of songs to fill a very small storage footprint. However, there is a trade-off in audio quality.
FLAC surpasses MP3 quality by preserving the original soundscape in exact detail. The FLAC format reduces the original file size by roughly 30-60% with no loss of quality, hence it is a lossless format. This differs from the MP3 format which is a lossy format, or a format that loses quality in the conversion process.
One of the great strengths of FLAC is its very fast decoding time, or ability to stream even on modest hardware. Technical specifics in the framed architecture also allow it to be error resistant, in that each frame has the information it needs to decode itself. If a frame is corrupted, the data lost in the stream is a mere blip. This differs from other types of lossless formats where the entire stream would essentially become corrupted.
Another feature of FLAC is that it can handle up to eight channels of audio for preserving surround sound recordings. FLAC is also a good choice for archiving audio CDs, as one can always use the FLAC file later to convert to future formats. A further advantage of FLAC is that it supports replaygain, a technique for ensuring that recorded sound files play at the same volume level.
The only real disadvantage of FLAC files is that the compression ratio is not as steep as other codecs. Files will be somewhat larger. However, with all of the advantages of FLAC, this is a happy trade off for many audiophiles.
Considering the falling prices of flash cards, portable players, and storage devices, the FLAC format will likely only gain support. FLAC files can play on iPods® with installation of the open source firmware replacement, Rockbox (though this might affect warranty). FLAC files can also be played on other portable devices and on home or auto compact disc players that support the FLAC format.

Induction Heating System，均匀加热， 保温24小时后的米饭基本和刚煮的一样。
磁感应加热，锅体自加热，比传统电热盘加热受热更均匀。
其实一个电饭锅的好坏，有很多因素：
1. 加热方式（电磁加热还是电热盘加热）
2. 控制程序（各个厂家都有自己的流程，基本靠经验，当然近代表芯片控制的，那种传统机械控制的完全不谈）
3. 加热部位（底部加热还是全方位加热，高端型号甚至有顶部锅盖加热，避免蒸汽凝结的水滴在饭上影响最上面一层米饭的口感）
4. 内部涂层（目前电饭锅上用的最好的涂层是大金的，国内一些品牌的高端型号用的也是大金涂层）
5. 内锅厚度（内胆越厚越好，加热越均匀，去超市比较比较不同价位的内锅厚度就明白了）

NRG (file format)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NRG_%28file_format%29
A .nrg file is a proprietary CD image file format used by Nero Burning ROM, a utility suite made by Nero AG, to create and burn ISO 9660 CD images.
Other than Nero Burning ROM, a variety of software titles can use these image files. For example, Power ISO, Alcohol 120%, or Daemon Tools can mount NRG files onto virtual drives for reading.

不要埋怨生活
常常听见有人抱怨，为什么我的容颜不是国色天香，为什么今天天气这么糟糕，为什么我生活在这么贫穷的家庭里，为什么老天爷这样对我……为什么要抱怨 这抱怨那呢?生活本来就不是事事如意，生活本来就不会十全十美，相反，起起落落，悲欢离合才是家常便饭。俗话说的好：愁一愁，白了头;笑一笑，十年少。不 要抱怨，每个人的人生都不会是一帆风顺的，而正是因为有这些波波折折，才练就出异彩纷呈的人生。
如果能常换个角度来看问题，你可能会很容易发现自己的人生照样很精彩。你不能改变容颜，你何不想一想放纵笑容;你不能改变天气，你何不改变心情。俗话说：风雨之后才见彩虹。人生也是如此，历经磨练往往能造就精彩的人生。
中 国的一位作家来到美国，他看见一个卖花的老太太总是很高兴，很是奇怪。他就挑了一支花问：“您为什么总是如此的开心呢?”老太太的回答使作家愣住了。“耶 稣被钉在十字架上是全世界最黑暗的一天，可三天后就是复活节。一切的烦恼只要等待三天不就烟消云散了吗?”作家为老太太的回答而感动，一位老太太竟能这样 洒脱地看待人生，竟能把人生看得如此透彻。发明家大王——爱迪生为了寻找做灯丝的最好材料曾做了1000多次实验，并且都失败了。有一邻居嘲笑他：“你怎 么做1000多次实验都失败了?”爱迪生说：“我不是发现了1000多种不合适做灯丝的材料了吗?”爱迪生能换个角度看待失败，深信一定能获得最合适的材 料，正因为有这自信，所以能不懈努力，最后终于获得成功。
人要热爱生活，热爱生命，要有自信，要朝着既定目标不懈努力，要像艾青所说的那 样，“即使我们是一支蜡烛，也应该蜡炬成灰泪始干;即使我们是一根火柴，也应该在关键时刻有一丝光亮”，如果能这样，那么我们的人生就会意义，我们的人生 就能发出异样的光彩。最后要提醒大家，在遇到挫折的时候，不要老报怨这报怨那，而要学会变换角度思考问题，这样就不易被人生的“风雨”所击倒。

写给女孩的七个忠告：女孩儿，假如你还年轻
1. Never Get Obsessed with your Appearance. 绝不要为自己的外貌而烦恼。
We think you look great (though some of the outfits you wear worry us!). Please be happy with the person you are and the body you have. Eat sensibly, take exercise and be healthy. Some girls become obsessed with losing weight or getting the perfect shape. You look fine.
我们认为你长得很美（尽管你穿的某些时装令我们担忧！）。你就是你，不要为自己的外貌烦恼。要合理膳食，多做运动，保持健康。有些女孩子为减肥或塑造完美的身材而烦恼。但你已经很好了。
2. Never Get Involved with a Married Man. 绝不要和已婚男人纠缠不清。
There are plenty of great single men out there. Don’t get entangled with a married man no matter how attractive he is–it will end in your tears.
外面有许多优秀的单身男人。不要和已婚男人搅在一起，不管他多么有魅力——不然你就等着以泪洗面吧。
3. Never Compromise Your Personal Safety. 绝不要危及个人安全。
Never put yourself at serious risk. This means that you cannot trust people until you really know them and that sometimes you have to avoid things that look like they might be fun. Never get drunk or take drugs. Unfortunately there are some malevolent people out there and it is best not to take undue risks.
绝不要让自己处于危险的境地。就是说，不要相信还不真正了解的人，有时还要回避看似有趣的活动。绝不要酗酒或吸毒。不幸的是，这个社会总还是有不好的人，所以最好不要过度冒险。
4. Never Live Beyond Your Means. 生活费用绝不要超支。
Throughout life try to keep your spending within your income and so save a little. Avoid getting into debt if possible. There are some exceptions–like getting a mortgage to buy a house–but generally if you can live within your means you will avoid all sorts of problems.
生活上要努力保持收支平衡，所以应该存点钱。在可能的情况下避免负债。当然可以有些例外——如抵押贷款买房子——但是总的来说，如果你能保持收支平衡就能避免各种麻烦。
5. Never Despise Yourself. 绝不要看不起自己。
You are great and capable of achieving great things so believe in yourself. When things go badly never stop believing. Some girls get depressed, blame themselves and lose self-esteem. All sorts of problems can follow.
你很优秀，也有能力获得美好的前程，因此要相信自己。身处逆境的时候也绝不放弃。有些女孩子会因此消沉下去，怪罪自己，从而失去自尊。那样一来，各种问题都会随之而来。
6. Never Give Less Than Your Best. 永远尽力而为。
We are very proud of what you have accomplished so far. You should be proud too. Keep doing well. Keep trying your hardest at everything you do. No one can ask for more than that.
我们为你已取得的成就感到骄傲，你也应该感到自豪。继续好好干。继续在任何事上都尽最大努力。没人能要求更多了。
7. Never Forget that Your Parents Love You. 绝不要忘记你的父母爱你。
Whatever happens in life, your family will still be your family. Whatever difficulties you encounter you can always talk to us and we will try to help. We are here for you.
生活中无论发生了什么，家始终是你的家。无论你遇到什么困难，你都可以告诉家人，家人会尽力帮助你，他们是你永远的坚强后盾。

成长的孤独
We’re like the cream. When the cream rises to the top, it separates itself from the milk. Perhaps that is what the New Age Movement is really all about. We find ourselves lonely at the top. Yes, it is.
我们就像奶油。当奶油浮到顶部的时候，它会和牛奶分离。也许这种现象正像是新世纪运动的写照。我们发现自己飞得越高，就会越感孤独。是的，这就是现实。
It is no different with political enlightenment, spiritual enlightenment, or even becoming enlightened about relating to each other. The more mentally healthy you become, the more spiritual, the more balanced, the wealthier, the more global you become… the more alone you may feel.
不论是政治或精神修养的造诣有多深，或者甚至是与他人之间有一种默契的关系，就孤独这一点而言，是没有区别的。你越是拥有健康有理智，精神修养的造诣越深，生活越平衡，越富有，或你的名气传播得越广，你也会感觉越孤独。
Often, we find ourselves unable to find those other rare individuals who are choosing the same path as ours. The path of sloppy and lazy is full of other people to meet and talk to. The path of whiners is full. The path of being safe, generic, and boring is so crowded you almost cannot even move forward. Isn’t that why you left that path? You had a need to move forward, a need for some elbowroom, a need to spread your arms wide, a need to be seen as special, unique, different. The masses may admire you, but they are not going to be able to really relate to you. You will be alone much of the time.
经常，我们很难找到那些选择我们和我们同路的人们。那条潮湿，慵懒的道路挤满了可以相遇并聊天的人。那条满是牢骚者的道路上也拥挤不堪。那 条所谓安全，普通以及枯燥的道路是如此拥挤以至于你无法向前挪步。难道这不正是你离开那条道路的原因吗？你需要向前挪步，需要活动的空间，需要展开你的双 臂，需要被认知为特别，有个性，与众不同。万千大众仰慕你，但他们却不可能真正地融入你。大部分的时间里，你将是孤独的。
Do not be afraid of the loneliness of enlightenment. Do not force others to agree with you. Simply give your heart and know that you are growing and that they are free to grow or not. It is the nature of the game. We are all free to choose our paths.
不要害怕因造诣深而产生的孤独感。不必要勉强别人赞识你。做你自己，坚定着你自己的成长，别人是否愿意成长就由他们自己去决定吧。这就是自然界的规则。我们都有选择自己道路的自由。
