披頭四第一張單曲50年前的10月5日首度發行
五十年前披頭四 (The Beatles 甲蟲) 第一張單曲,“Love Me Do”,在1962年10月5日在英國首度發行,站上第17名。但而後漸漸開啓全球的披頭風,在1964年在美國單曲奪冠。
披頭四一直是Steve Jobs最喜歡的樂團之一,見“Steve Jobs 喜歡的音樂”。蘋果的iTunes成為世界的數位音樂平台,人人都有iPod後,最大的遺憾之一就是披頭四的音樂無法加入iTunes!因為Steve Jobs的“蘋果”和披頭四的“蘋果”的版權問題,見“蘋果有了蘋果”。一直到2010年11月16日,披頭四的音樂才正式上iTunes,且一上市就破紀錄,見“Let It Be: The Beatles、披頭四的專輯傳捷報:一星期200萬單曲和45萬專輯”。
Steve Jobs 的科技和人文結合是他最為人所稱道的(科技來自於人性)。而人文方面的背景,60年代開始的嬉皮文化,和反戰文化,可說是除了禪宗思想外,影響他最深。而反映當時嬉皮文化和反戰文化的就是民謠歌手和歌曲!披頭四就是其中之一。

林書豪 Jeremy Lin 網路爆紅:Twitter & AllThingsD
兩人都完成了Mission Impossible。
老人年輕時因為喜歡美國職業運動,每天早上得買“民生報”或上圖書館看,因為只有民生報有美國職業運動新聞。老人迷上MLB和MBA。MLB東看紐約洋基隊,西看水手隊。有線電台出現後,星期日半夜和一大早便很忙,得起來看ESPN電視轉撥,也開始迷上NFL。王建民出現打亂老人看電視的習慣,因為NFL不見了,其他MLB球隊也不見。所以當大家都在看王建民時,近十年老人突然上班回來少看電視了,因為連上班都到處看得到他和洋基。
但是現在不同了,因為 Jeremy Lin 打動了老人的年輕的心,從回過去年輕的熱誠。
AllThingsD的Peter Kafka:“Who Put Sports In My Twitter Again? The Jeremy Lin Explainer”, 因為23歲的 Jeremy Lin 代表年輕的一代,有Twitter和Facebook,不喜歡運動的科技宅男,不看到 Jeremy Lin 也難矣!
連明星後衛Steve Nash都在Twitter上讚揚Jeremy Lin,“If you love sports you have to love what Jeremy Lin is doing. Getting an opportunity and exploding!!”
湖人前鋒瘋狂的前鋒Metta World Peace在CBS Sports接受訪問提到 Jeremy Lin 時的對話最讓人啼笑皆非,Metta World Peace 說道:
““We think he needs a better haircut. I don't like that style. You're in New York, the fashion capital. Change your haircut, OK? You're a star now. Wear some shades. Shades, OK? Put down the nerdy Harvard book glasses. Put on some black shades, OK? With some leather pants. Change your style. Fashion. He's the type of guy who should wear leather pants, some nice shoes and change his fashion. You're Jeremy Lin, for godsakes. You know what I'm saying? You know? Put down that law book, stop reading the New York Times and start reading the Daily News. Newsday, that's the one. I like that one because there's always color in that one. What else? Wall Street Journal. Get some swag. You're in New York City. Put your hat to the back, too. Put your hat on backwards. Come to practice with your pants sagging and just tell them, ‘I don't feel like practicing.’ Practice? You know? Practice? And wear an Iverson jersey. You know? Come to practice with a cigar. Lit. ‘I'm Jeremy Lin.’ You know? He should change. We're all excited to play tonight. It's like the first time for everybody. Everybody's excited. Kobe's excited. He wants to get 50. He wants to welcome Jeremy Lin to his new level.””
Jeremy Lin的成功和啓發作用,甚至連常春藤聯盟Ivy League的比賽都開始引起人民的注意,見“Jeremy Lin's emergence leads people to care about Ivy League athletes turned pro”。Jeremy Lin改變了專家“書呆子不會運動”的錯誤觀念。
老人倒是希望 Jeremy Lin:“Don't change your style”!Jememy Lin 本身就是 style。我喜歡你的髮型作風,不要當紐約客!

Rolling In The Deep
無關蘋果,休息一下:
Adele 的歌 Rolling in The Deep 怒火中燒
There's a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch and it's bring me out the dark
Finally, I can see you crystal clear
Go ahead and sell me out and I'll lay your sheet bare
See how I'll leave with every piece of you
Don't underestimate the things that I will do
There's a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch and it's bring me out the dark
The scars of your love remind me of us
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless
I can't help feeling
We could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
Rolling in the deep
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hands
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
And you played it to the beat
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
Baby, I have no story to be told
But I've heard one on you
and I'm gonna make your head burn
Think of me in the depths of your despair
Make a home down there as mine sure won't be shared
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
The scars of your love remind me of us
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
I can't help feeling
We could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
Rolling in the deep
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hands
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
And you played it to the beat
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
Could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside of your hands
But you played it with a beating
Throw your soul through every open door
Count your blessings to find what you look for
Turn my sorrow into treasured gold
You'll pay me back in kind
and reap just what you've sown
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
We could have had it all
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
We could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
It all, it all, it all
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
We could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
Rolling in the deep
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hands
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
And you played it to the beat
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
Could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
Rolling in the deep
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hands
