Alona



那海边的椰树,是夕阳中的新娘;
波光里的艳影,在我的心头荡漾。

珊瑚上的海星,缤纷的在水底招摇;
在潮汐的柔波里,我甘做一条水草!

那树荫下的一潭,不是清泉,是天上虹;
揉碎在浮藻间,沉淀着彩虹似的梦。
 
以上片段改自"再别康桥" 

Alona 在 Panglao 南部,虽说是游客云集区,但实际上海滩上看到的人并不多,算是很清静了。


这里具备了很多浮浅区的优良品质,能见度高,坡度平缓,风平浪静,有珊瑚岛断层,物种丰富,唯一美中不足的是有不少水母。
要潜水最好是上午涨潮的时候,到了下午退潮水位太浅,游出100米也还是肚皮贴着海草。

所见: 各色海星无数,第一次看到黑白相间的大海蛇,偶尔看到海参,还有大八爪鱼,而最难忘是看到珊瑚岛断层边缘,有日游出很远很远,突然看到前方一片深邃的蓝色,深不见底,游到深蓝之中有跨越雷池的感觉,如果海水干涸,这里就是个大悬崖,游走在悬崖边缘仿佛在空中漂浮,却也不敢游离太远,深蓝之中看不到前路和身下,有种对未知的恐惧。


Alona Kew White Beach Resort, 住了三天,有个穿红背心的胖小贩,表面上看来是卖墨镜和手表的,实际上每天都过来挤眉弄眼,缠着我推销他裤袋里藏的伟哥啊,神油啊,百折不挠,永不放弃。


海边夜景,难得拍摄成功,技巧有二: 一则寻找固定支架,二则选择光圈优先,曝光时间长达8秒.

Around Bohol

薄荷岛是菲律宾第十大岛, 距离宿雾(Cebu)70公里, 由于卫星地图很不清晰,无法象澳洲一样放到很大看清沙滩

1. Diving

Panglao Island 与 主岛上的 Tagbilaran 遥遥相望,中间由两座桥连接起来。
Bohol 主要的潜点是西南面的 Balicasag、Pamilacan 和西北面的 Cabilao。
Balicasag 从 Alona Beach 过去大概30-40分钟船程,是 Bohol 最著名的潜点
Pamilacan 从 Alona Beach 过去大概40-50分钟船程
Cabilao 从Alona Beach 要2.5小时船程,一般是参加 Cabilao 一日游的潜水团或者在 Cabilao 上住宿

FIX Protocol

The Financial Information eXchange (FIX) protocol is an electronic communications protocol initiated in 1992 for international real-time exchange of information related to the securities transactions and markets. With trillions of dollars traded annually on the NASDAQ alone, financial service entities are investing heavily in optimizing electronic trading and employing Direct Market Access (DMA) to increase their speed to financial markets. Managing the delivery of trading applications and keeping latency low increasingly requires an understanding of the FIX protocol.
 

The message fields are delimited using the ASCII 01 <start of header> character. They are composed of a header, a body, and a trailer.

Up to FIX.4.4 the first three fields in all FIX messages are The header must contain the 8 (BeginString), 9 (BodyLength), and 35 (MsgType) tags.

From FIXT.1.1 / FIX.5.0, the first five or six fields are

8 (BeginString), 9 (BodyLength), 35 (MsgType), 49 (SenderCompID), 56 (TargetCompID) and 1128 (ApplVerID - if present must be in 6th position)

The last field of FIX Message Checksum and its of the form ^10=NNN^ where ^ is SOH delimiter character and NNN is three digit checksum.

Header+Body+Trailer : FIX Content

Example of a FIX message : Execution Report

8=FIX.4.2 | 9=67 | 35=8 | 49=PHLX | 56=PERS | 11=ATOMNOCCC9990900 | 52=20071123-05:30:00.000 | 20=3 | 150=E | 39=E | 55=MSFT | 167=CS | 54=1 | 38=15 | 40=2 | 44=15 | 58=PHLX EQUITY TESTING | 59=0 | 47=C | 32=0 | 31=0 | 151=15 | 14=0 | 6=0 | 10=102 |

QuickFIX/J is a full featured messaging engine for the FIX protocol. It is a 100% Java open source implementation of the popular C++ QuickFIX engine.

Trade Curb

Trade Curb, also known as a Circuit Breaker, Measures instituted by exchanges to stop trading temporarily when the market has fallen by a certain percentage in a specified period. They are intended to prevent a market free fall by permitting buy and sell orders to rebalance.
 
After the stock market crash of 1987, stock and commodities exchanges established a system of trigger-point rules known as circuit breakers. They temporarily restrict trading in stocks, stock options, and stock index futures when prices fall too far, too fast.
 
Circuit Breaker put in place after Black Monday. Aims at:
  - Reduce market volatility
  - Avoid massive panic sell-offs
  - Give traders time to reconsider their transactions
 

At the start of each quarter, the NYSE sets three circuit breaker levels at levels of 10%, 20%, and 30% of the average closing price of the Dow Jones Industrial Average for the month preceding the start of the quarter, rounded to the nearest 50-point interval. As of the first quarter of 2009, these levels are 850 points, 1,700 points, and 2,600 points respectively. Depending on the point drop that happens and the time of day when it happens, different actions occur automatically:

The halt for a 10% decline would be one hour if it occurred before 2 p.m., and for 30 minutes if it occurred between 2 and 2:30, but would not halt trading at all after 2:30. The halt for a 20% decline would be two hours if it occurred before 1 p.m., and between 1 p.m. and 2 p.m. for one hour, and close the market for the rest of the day after 2 p.m. If the market declined by 30%, at any time, trading would be halted for the remainder of the day.

Under the previous Rule 80B trigger points (in effect since October 19, 1988) for a market-wide trading halt, a decline of 350 points in the DJIA would halt trading for 30 minutes and a drop of 550 points one hour. These trigger points were hit only once on October 27, 1997, when the DJIA was down 350 at 2:35 p.m. and 550 at 3:30, shutting the market for the remainder of the day.

CIRCUIT-BREAKER LEVELS
FOR SECOND-QUARTER 2009
In the event of a 700-POINT decline in the DJIA (10 percent):

Before 2 p.m.
1-HOUR HALT

2-2:30 p.m.
30-MIN. HALT

After 2:30 p.m.
NO HALT

In the event of a 1450-POINT decline in the DJIA (20 percent):

Before 1 p.m.
2-HOUR HALT

1-2 p.m.
1-HOUR HALT

After 2 p.m.
MARKET CLOSES

In the event of a 2150-POINT decline in the DJIA (30 percent), regardless of the time, MARKET CLOSES for the day.

Great Fire Wall

Some websites were blocked for 3 days, I blamed on MS at the begining but later on I realized they were blocked for a special and sensitive day, that's the facts behind which is out of my mind, I wouldn't believe that the CCP can go this far though. Great Wall is one of the reknown wonders in China, there is another - the Great Fire Wall.

If we can't see the answer that we are interested in we will try to use the proxy, until we find the truths that have been hiden for years, SINCE THE MOMENT WE WERE BORN. I feel ashame for whoever did this, we are not eligible to criticise that Japanese are trying to cover the past history of invasion as our party is doing the same thing to his own ppl!

古文明遗址

2300年前,希腊诗人Antipater留下了这样的文字: I have set eyes on the wall of lofty Babylon on which is a road for chariots, and the statue of Zeus by the Alpheus, and the hanging gardens, and the Colossus of the Sun, and the huge labour of the high pyramids, and the vast tomb of Mausolus; but when I saw the house of Artemis that mounted to the clouds, those other marvels lost their brilliancy, and I said, 'Lo, apart from Olympus, the Sun never looked on aught so grand.

可见阿泰密斯神庙位居七大古文明奇迹之首,但是如今唯有金字塔硕果仅存。

1. 埃及吉萨金字塔The Great Pyramid of Giza 2500 BC Approximate - Egyptians
2. 奥林匹亚宙斯巨像 Statue of Zeus at Olympia 435 BC - Greeks - Destroyed Fire
3. 阿泰密斯神庙 Temple of Artemis at Ephesus 550 BC - Anatolians - Destroyed Fire 356 BC
4. 摩索拉斯基陵墓 Mausoleum of Halicarnassus 315 BC - Hellenized Carians - Destroyed Earthquake
5. 亚历山大灯塔 Lighthouse of Alexandria 3rd Century BC - Hellenistic Civilization - Destroyed Earthquake
6. 巴比伦空中花园 Hanging Gardens of Babylon 600 BC - Babylonians - Destroyed Earthquake
7. 罗德岛巨像Colossus of Rhodes 292-280 BC - Hellenistic Civilization - Destroyed 224 BC Earthquake

在新七大奇迹评选的时候,作为唯一幸存的古文明奇迹金字塔拒绝参加评选,新的列表是:
中国长城,约旦佩特拉古城,巴西基督像,秘鲁马丘比丘,墨西哥奇琴伊察 (Chichen Itza) 金字塔,罗马竞技场,印度泰姬陵
个人觉得里约热内卢的基督像有点不配,随便就可以找出很多比它伟大的多的古文明建筑

在墨西哥还有比 Chichen Itza 更宏伟壮观的玛雅文明遗址 - 众神降生之地特奥蒂瓦坎 (Teotihuacan), 中间那条黄泉大道让人肃然起敬,据说黄泉大道上这些遗迹的距离,恰好表示着太阳系行星的轨道数据,和九大行星的距离比例完全吻合。

墨西哥死亡金字塔

再说古代东方四大古迹: 长城,泰姬陵依然榜上有名,再加上吴哥窟,和婆罗浮屠 (Borobudur)。

婆罗浮屠位于印度尼西亚爪哇岛中部马吉冷婆罗浮屠村,由200万火山岩堆积而成,象征天圆地方是南半球最大的古迹。
