the "Impossible Trinity"


The triangle represents the supposed impossibility of having all 3 of the objectives that label the sides of the triangle. The country can have any 2 of these, by adopting the policy at the corner of the triangle between 2 sides. But that policy will make the objective on the side opposite it, impossible.

~ECON 340~

What are the three rules of the gold standard?

i. Fix the value of the currency in terms of gold (when 2 countries do this, it also fixes the exchange rate between their 2 countries).

ii. Keep the supply of domestic money supply fixed in some constant proportion to their supply of gold. (Thus money supply increases or decreases as they acquire or lose gold).

iii. Stand ready to redeem their own currency with payments in gold and permit gold to be exported or imported. (both causes the market exchange rate to equal the official one, and caues the gold stock and hence the money supply to respond to excess supply and demand for the currency.

errrm. ok.

spinning away

Up on a hill, as the day dissolves
With my pencil turning moments into life

One by one, all the stars appear
As the great winds of the planet spiral in
Spinning away, like the night sky
In the million insect storm, the constellations form

On a hill, under a raven sky
I have no idea exactly what I've been
Some kind of change, some kind of spinning away
With every single line moving further out in time

Spinning away, like the night sky (some kind of spinning away)
I have no idea exactly where I've been.

And here
And there
And here
And there

Some kind of spinning away...

And here
And there (Some kind of spinning away...)
And here
And there
And here
And there (Some kind of spinning away...)
And here
And there
And here
And there
And here
And there
work work. =)

"Big Game" at the Big House

GAME: Ohio State at Michigan
TIME: 01:00 P.M. EST
VENUE: Michigan Stadium

As usual, this year's Ohio State-Michigan matchup contains Big Ten championship and BCS berth subplots.


As important as that is, Buckeyes coach Jim Tressel doesn't want his team to overlook the singular importance of playing in one of college football's most storied rivalry games.

Tressel and the No. 9 Buckeyes (8-2, 6-1) go for their sixth straight win and look to clinch at least a share of the conference crown Saturday when they travel to Michigan Stadium to face the No. 17 Wolverines (7-3, 5-2).

"When guys come back for reunions, they talk about the guy that made the big play in the Ohio State-Michigan game," said Tressel, 3-1 against Michigan. "That's just the legacy that's left and I'm sure the same thing goes up there when people come back and talk about the great pride they have in their program."

The 102nd meeting includes a shot at the Big Ten title and a BCS berth for both squads.

Ohio State can clinch the Big Ten outright with a victory and a Penn State loss later in the day at Michigan State. Michigan, winner of four in a row, can earn a share of the crown with a victory over the Buckeyes and a Nittany Lions loss.

If that happens, Michigan would earn the conference's automatic BCS berth because of head-to-head victories over Ohio State and Penn State. If the Buckeyes and Nittany Lions both win, Penn State would get the BCS spot by virtue of its 17-10 defeat of Ohio State on Oct. 8.

Michigan coach Lloyd Carr knows the season hinges on this game.

"Yeah. Yeah. And I think for both teams," said Carr, 6-4 against Ohio State but 1-3 against Tressel. "I think this season will be a major disappointment with a loss. I can't think of anything less, because there is a lot at stake and I think that's what this game is."

That the Wolverines still have a chance at the title is a testament to their impressive turnaround. Four weeks ago, Michigan sat at 3-3, its worst start since 1990.

"People didn't give us much hope," tight end Tim Massaquoi said. "They really cast our season away."

The Wolverines' last-second win over Penn State, the Nittany Lions' only loss, changed everything, sparking the four-game winning streak that has Michigan alive in the conference race.

Michigan should get additional help Saturday from the expected return of leading rusher Mike Hart. The sophomore tailback, who missed the previous two games with a sprained right ankle, has averaged 122 yards in six games this season.

Ohio State finds itself needing help to win the Big Ten crown, even though its two losses came by a total of four points to No. 2 Texas and then-No. 16 Penn State.

The Buckeyes, though, have outscored opponents by an average of 42-15 during their winning streak and own the fifth-ranked defense in the country as they look to lock up a share of the title against their archrivals.

"This is it. What else do you have left?" Ohio State defensive end Mike Kudla asked. "It's a month before your next game in the bowl and ... our season rides on this. We need to get a share of that Big Ten title or that's it. It kind of means everything for us."

Michigan leads the series with Ohio State 57-38-6, but the teams have split the last 50 meetings 24-24-2.

Ohio State won last year's meeting 37-21 in Columbus.

珊瑚海

海平面远方开始掩埋 伤要怎么平静纯白
我的脸上 始终夹带 淹没浅浅的无奈
你用唇语说你要离开
(情不在)
难过无声的留下来 汹涌潮水
一定明白 不是浪而是泪海

转身离开 认真说不出来
(你有话说不出来)
鸟跟鱼相爱 只是一场意外
们的爱 议一直存在
给你的爱
一直存在 (回不來)
永久真 竟累积成伤害
等待经历几次伤害

轉身離開 分手說不出來
蓝的珊瑚海 错过瞬间苍白
当初彼此 够成熟坦白
你有我的 够成熟坦白 (应该)
热情不在 笑容勉强不
你的笑容勉強不來
爱深埋珊瑚海

毁坏的沙碉如何重来 有裂痕的爱怎么重盖
只是一切 结束太快 说你无法释怀
贝壳里隐藏什么期

(等花儿开)
们也已经无心再猜
脸上海风 (脸上海风)
咸咸的爱 (咸咸的爱)
沉不出还有未来

Hurrah for the Yellow and Blue

Sing to the colors that float in the light;

Hurrah for the Yellow and Blue!

Yellow the stars as they ride through the night

And reel in a rollicking crew;

Yellow the fields where ripens the grain

And yellow the moon on the harvest wain;

Hail!

Hail to the colors that float in the light

Hurrah for the Yellow and Blue!

Blue are the billows that bow to the sun

When yellow robed morning is due.

Blue are the curtains that evening has spun

The slumbers of Phoebus to woo;

Blue are the blossoms to memory dear

And blue is the sapphire and gleams like a tear;

Hail!

Hail to the ribbons that nature has spun;

Hurrah for the Yellow and Blue!
