中国俗语"事不过三"与美国法律"三振出局法"

中国有句古话，“事不过三”。在美国，有项法律名为“Three strikes law”（“三振出局法”，力在严惩累犯），与我们的古话大有异曲同工之妙。若再深究“Three strikes law”的得名，你会发现，该法源于美国的棒球运动。

在棒球用语中，有一句名言“Three strikes, and you are out”，意思是，棒球比赛中，击球手若三次都未击中投球手所投的球，必须得出局（“strike”在棒球术语中指“未被击球手击中的球”）。引申至法律，“Three strikes law”规定，因暴力或严重罪行“进宫”两次者，以后每被判一次，无论新罪严重与否，至少得服刑25年甚至是终身监禁。

这下明白了，对有三次犯案的累犯而言，即使在随后的25年里不老死狱中，重见天日时也已白发苍苍了。你说他能不完蛋吗？

It's my pleasure to take those photos of Beijing University of Aeronautics & Astronautics. The university is very close to where I am staying. On the other hand, I also wanted to see the big changes myself. My first visit to the university was in 1962 when one of my uncles was there to study.

1949年后，据史料和乾隆的诗，在学院路西侧土城又建起雄伟壮观的城门和碑台，蓟门烟树碑重新高高耸立；修造古朴典雅的楼、馆、廊、青砖灰瓦，别具风采，种植了花木草坪，再现“芳树重重拥蓟门，苍茫烟翠满郊原”的景色。

王老师：我刚才说的那个《宛署杂谈》，那本书里边还是皇上的皇，后来的一些描写北京的书里边，在清末以后，才开始改成黄。十号线上至少有两处燕都八景，这燕都八景大家熟悉，其中有一处叫蓟门烟树，十号线有一个车站叫西土城，西土城上有一个景，在电影学院对过，那个土城上，就是南北走向的土城，那上头有一个景叫蓟门烟树，这个景就是乾隆皇帝有一次跟大臣们在这块考察，就发现这个地方有好多挺高的土岗子，地面上长了很多蓟草，老百姓叫刺菜，春天的时候把它拔下来洗洗抹酱吃，叫刺菜。高一点的叫大蓟，小一点的叫小蓟，这蓟是蓟县的得名，因为这个地方蓟草多。
乾隆问这个地方是哪儿？大臣支支吾吾没怎么回答，乾隆是个文人，很懂得诗，好多古诗里都讲蓟门的一些事，他说这个地方是不是蓟门，大臣就顺口说是，打那儿以后乾隆就给这个地方起了一个名，叫蓟门烟树，拿起笔写了一首诗，写了蓟门烟树四个大字，列了一个大石碑，盖了一个皇亭子，这个地名就叫皇亭子，这个碑叫蓟门烟树碑，御制碑。现在这个亭子没了，碑还在。
文林：这皇亭子的地名还有吗？
王老师：地名还有，就是北京电影制片厂的西墙外头这个村就叫皇亭子，电影学院占的那个地方就是皇亭子的村。
文林：蓟门烟树这一景应该是在西土城北边。
王老师：而西土城的地铁车站就是在西土城的最北端，而且这个站实际上并不是在土城上，是在西土城向北拐，然后再向东拐，拐到北土城，在这个位置上，它的东北出口实际上是在北土城上边，是这么一个地方，很巧妙。原来这个站名叫学院路，学院这个名很难说明是什么学院，地铁命名的人高明，干脆这儿叫西土城，比学院路更好一些。
文林：其实地铁十号线的站名也经过几次的改正。
王老师：对。
文林：刚开始有一些站名可能跟公共汽车站大致相同，但是后来有调整，有改动，好像更突出文化的特点。

LIVE LIFE TO THE FULLEST

Life is an accumulation of one's choices. Both the good and the bad things are the result of repeated choices over the days, weeks, months, and years of your life. You reap what you sow - for good and for ill.

...

How to live like Caleb:

* Avoid gossip. Find good news about other people. Believe the best rather than assume the worst. Spread good rumors and avoid judgmental condemnation. Gossip diminishes your worth because you live at the expense of others - tearing them down by saying, I may not be much, but at least I'm not as bad as that guy.

* Release bitterness. Don't blame others, and don't walk around waiting for someone to apologize to you. Caleb and Joshua could have exhausted themselves in bitterness by blaming the 10 disbelieving spies. Instead, they seem to have released the people who hurt them, and in so doing they liberated their own souls.

* Take risks. Step out in faith, believing in God. Caleb gave the report, Let's go for it - we can certainly take this land (Nu. 13:30). The others cowered in fear of exaggerated giants.

* Trust. Living a life of worry guarantees a sad life. When you try to be God by grabbing control, you shrivel because you cannot bear the weight. You can live comfortably with the unknown when you choose to trust God.

* Don't live for stuff. Keep materialism in check. When you live for the accumulation of things - either by purchasing these things or by constantly longing for what you can't afford - you become a shrinking soul.

* Master your appetite. If you are controlled by your cravings your spiritual capacity will lessen - because food, lust, or other unchecked desires will take over. Caleb attended to the physical as well as the spiritual discipline; how else could he have said, I'm just as strong today as when we left Egypt 45 years ago (Josh. 14:11).

* Grow deep. Spend time thinking about the meaning of life. Build your life on a firm theological and philosophical foundation. Think of the important things and don't burn up your intellectual energies on monumental facts such as sports scores or the weather.

* Live today. Celebrate the past, embrace the present, and anticipate the future. Learn from the past but don't live there. Recognize that the good old days are never going to return and maybe weren't as good as you recall. Engage fully in this day.

* Think globally. Realize that God is Lord and creator of the whole world. That means you must live comfortably with all the diversity He made, and reach out to serve His world.
