“言论自由”，恩，终于自由了。

据《成都商报》报道，“你是准备替党说话，还是准备替老百姓说话？”——面对采访的记者，郑州市城市规划局副局长逯军一语惊人成名。深刻反映了目前权利掌控者的思维方式。但是下面郑州市委组织部，一干部的话，让我们很“高兴”，终于可以言论自由了。 

“随后记者联系上郑州市委组织部，一干部说，目前部里还没有有关逯军任何处罚及追究责任的信息。不过，他个人认为，逯军此言属于个人言行，只能代表个人，组织部也管不了，国家也是规定言论自由。
”
呵呵，颇具讽刺意义的言论自由啊。呵呵。这样的言论尚且自由，民众的轻言只语却被深深封闭。众多的事件，让我们深深体会到了这层深刻含义。

原文地址：郑州市委组织部回应：逯军言行代表个人无法管

这样的进步，值得我们“弹冠相庆”了。呵呵，“指日可待”的“言论自由”啊。

原文：
“　据《成都商报》报道，“你是准备替党说话，还是准备替老百姓说话？”——面对采访的记者，郑州市城市规划局副局长逯军一语惊人成名。

　　如今，身处舆论漩涡的逯军副局长仍在上班，所在单位称“尽快给媒体答复”，但是一位郑州市委组织部官员却认为，逯军此言属个人言行，只是代表个人，组织部也管不了。

　　副局长“名言”招来批评

　　逯军此语的走红，有网友评价“见过雷的，见过牛的，还真没见过雷死牛的”。

　　对于逯军的不当言论，资深评论员椿桦撰文称，从某种角度来理解，他（逯军）可能说出了一部分官员抗拒舆论监督的心里话——媒体替老百姓说话，就是与自己过不去，就是与政府过不去。

　　椿桦质问这类官员：你是在替谁工作？替党和人民，还是替利益集团？副局长一句下意识冒出来的名言，将一些官员严重畸形的权力观展现无余——权力不是为民所用，而是为能给他们带来好处的利益集团所用，在他们眼中，人民赋予的权力，只是谋取私利的工具罢了。

　　最为严厉的网友称：“这位逯军副局长可以下课了。”“由此也见为什么很多官员会有意无意、自觉不自觉地脱离群众。”

　　逯军目前仍正常上班

　　1978年9月入党的逯军曾在部队服役，1999年进入郑州市城市规划局任领导职务。按照简历，逯军不应该是如此口无遮拦的官员。因为，曾担任过中共郑州市机要局局长、市委办公厅副主任的逯军，是多年的领导干部，对国家政策了如指掌。

　　记者前日联系上郑州市城市规划局办公室，这个部门正是逯军副局长分管。办公室一位负责人告诉记者，逯军副局长仍在正常上班，下午还在开会。“这个事出了后，大家都在网上看到了。”她说，“报道与实际情况是不相符的，不过我们局里会在最快的时间给媒体一个答复。”

　　随后记者联系上郑州市委组织部，一干部说，目前部里还没有有关逯军任何处罚及追究责任的信息。不过，他个人认为，逯军此言属于个人言行，只能代表个人，组织部也管不了，国家也是规定言论自由。

　　逯军雷语惊人后，目前他一直未出面做任何解释及道歉。无论记者如何拨打他的手机及办公室电话，他一概不接听。 (来源：金羊网)

The Barrow extension appears as an arrangement of timber boxes, each independently rotated and subjected to varying amounts of extruding and manipulating forces. These separate actions result in a variety of shapes, which united, create an interior of differing volumes and organizations, providing an interesting double story addition to this weatherboard house.

The extension challenges the traditional nature of timber construction. Normally lightweight and fragile, added wall thickness to different areas results in a structure with a fluctuating sense of mass. The dynamic and varying nature of these environments is further enhanced by differing window arrangements and framing techniques. Frequently the windows are setback within the frame of the wall, sometimes flush and occasionally extruding beyond the timber frame.

The extension challenges the traditional nature of timber construction. Normally lightweight and fragile, added wall thickness to different areas results in a structure with a fluctuating sense of mass. The dynamic and varying nature of these environments is further enhanced by differing window arrangements and framing techniques. Frequently the windows are setback within the frame of the wall, sometimes flush and occasionally extruding beyond the timber frame.

This unconventional approach to massing and window design subverts the conservative planar nature of a ‘box’. The movement of the shadows created by these extruding or intruding elements are tracked on the external facade and internal environment, creating varying patterns and giving the extension an undefined geometry.

The external timber cladding wraps itself inside and fuses the extension into the original house, where the old living space now is occupied as a bathroom. Here, there is no evidence of conventional bathroom materiality, the room still maintaining its appearance as a living/dining space. The only defining feature a free standing cast iron bath (reused from the original demolished bathroom) at the centre of the room, demonstrating the capability of a single element to alter the program of a space.

The strategic placement of a separate living space at the western end of the site, reflects the focus of the site internally, frames the large open area & increases privacy levels.

Both this new addition and the extension to the old part of the house, at the western end of the site, openly embrace this central garden space. Definition between indoor and outdoor is blurred by the transparent divisions of bifold doors and large windows; Visual interaction is constant. This central outdoor spaces becomes part of the living circulation space as the diurnal patterns of the occupants see them traverse the yard to the rear living quarters.

The brighter, larger extension nurtures the dynamic, more numerous, day time activities, whilst the low key, more relaxed, activities of the afternoon are enjoyed in the sunroom at the western end of the site reflecting back on the outdoor yard and pool, watching the cinematic shadows play across the irregular face of the Barrow’s extension.

The extensive openable window and bifold door arrangement accompanied by Barrow’s orientation allows for abundant natural light and ventilation to infiltrate the spaces, decreasing reliance on electrical and heating/cooling systems.

The entirety of the design also employs materials reused from the parts of the previous house as well as recycled or found elements, decreasing the carbon footprint of the design and also adding character to the spaces.

設計案名稱：Thermal Baths Vals 溫泉旅館
設計案位置：Vals, Graubünden, Switzerland 瑞士
建築師：Peter Zumthor
完成：1996年

The Therme Vals Peter Zumthor  (视频)

Vals is a remote alpine village in the canton of Graubünden, which has recently become well known all over Switzerland and to some extent the rest of the world – it went through the Bilbao effect before Bilbao.

During the early 1980s the community of Vals bought a bankrupt hotel consisting of three buildings from the 1960s, and commissioned Peter Zumthor to build a new thermal bath. The building became a success in Switzerland: only two years after its opening it became a protected building; you can find photographs of it in any kind of magazine in that country; the name of the architect is well know to the common citizen of Graubünden; the village of Vals is again on the map.

Zumthor uses images of quarries and water flowing spontaneously from the ground to describe the conception of the building, ideas charged with an archaic atmosphere. Its geometric rigor reflects a huge rock embedded in the hillside.

The building is made from local Valser quartzite and concrete. Water, light and to some extent steam and heat, add to the definition of areas within the ritual of the bath.

The primal act of bathing organizes the building. Entrance is through an underground tunnel where the iron richness of the Valser water first shows as it pours from wall-mounted copper pipes and stains the stone that lies beneath its flow. Following the tunnel there is a filtering volume where the bather enters from one side, undresses, and comes out from the other side ready for the bath. Stepping out of the changing rooms the bather will be on a longitudinal balcony space that overlooks the therme; from here he can go into the Turkish baths or flow down to the main floor using a ramp that runs parallel to the balcony.

The main floor is organized by a series of ‘stones’ (cubic volumes) which house baths at different temperatures, showers, and sweating, drinking or resting spaces. Between these stones is water, and beside them larger empty areas lead towards two large windows which frame the view of the mountains. Wandering into the central bath the swimmer can move into the outdoor bath and finally onto the terrace. Below the baths is a therapy level containing smaller rooms that serve for varied types of massage and physiotherapy.

Seemingly static at first glance, the spatial concept is in fact completely dynamic, and this duality of impression between the still and the kinetic makes the building a place of relaxation through action, an awakening of senses.

The ceiling consists of cantilevered concrete slabs, each piece separated from the others by ‘fissures’ – light slits that also add to the sense of fluidity of the overall space.

>>如何前往 Thermal Baths Vals 溫泉旅館

By public transport: From the city of Chur, take the train Rhätische Bahn to Disentis/Mustér. Stop at Ilanz. From Ilanz take the Postauto (Swiss post coach) to Vals.

By car: Arriving from Chur direction Disentis until Ilanz. From Ilanz take turn south and take the mountain road to Vals.

Opening hours: Mon-Sun 11.00-20.00. The Baths are closed in April and May.

It is possible to stay overnight at the Hotel Therme. Please ask for exact information. Tel. +41 81 926 8080 or reserve for the Baths online at http://www.therme-vals.ch.

It is very important to make reservations via the Internet for access to the bath: the trip is long and it is better to avoid disappointment.

It would be silly to visit this building and not experience it through use. Please don’t forget your swimming suit.

介绍一下Peter Zumthor的相关简洁与代表设计作品。

瑞士 BASEL 真是個好地方！出了 Jacques Herzog 與 Pierre de Meuron 這一對建築師，現在又有一位 BASEL 出生的建築師獲得建築界最高榮譽：Pritzker Architecture Prize(普立茲克建築獎)。                                           

暨獲得 2008年高松宮殿下紀念世界文化賞後，瑞士建築師 Peter Zumthor 接著獲得頒發 2009年 Pritzker Architecture Prize(普立茲克建築獎)。

對許多人而言，在瑞士默默耕耘的 Peter Zumthor 早就該得到 Pritzker Architecture Prize 這座相當於建築界諾貝爾獎的肯定，如今主辦單位 Hyatt Foundation 總算將獎項頒給 Peter Zumthor，可說是實至名歸！Peter Zumthor 將於2009年5月29日在阿根廷首都布宜諾斯艾利斯所舉辦的典禮上受頒獎章以及10萬美元的獎金。

2009年 Pritzker Architecture Prize(普立茲克建築獎)評審團成員包括：評審團主席 Lord Peter Palumbo、智利建築師 Alejandro Aravena、日本建築師阪茂(Shigeru Ban)、瑞士建築學者 Rolf Fehlbaum、美國建築師 Carlos Jimenez、芬蘭建築師 Juhani Pallasmaa、義大利建築師 Renzo Piano、建築評論家 Karen Stein、執行董事Martha Thorne(沒有投票)。

65歲的 Zumthor 和其他明星建築師們非常不同，因為他的成就並非建基於聳立在各大都市、舉世矚目的大型建築物之上，而是跑到人跡罕至的偏遠地區，(http://blog.zfconnor.cn)例如阿爾卑斯山區，發揮他的才華，而他設計出來的作品，大多數是嬌小玲瓏，極少龐然大物。

雖然如此，由 Zumthor 設計的每一座建築物都是一絲不苟，巧奪天工，充份發揮他的創作和藝術才華，當中包括小型教堂、博物館、護老院和溫泉度假區等，在一般人眼中，這些建築物可能毫不起眼，也未必引起廣泛注意，但由建築師、評論家、和學術界人組成的評審團卻對 Zumthor 讚不絕口，讚揚他的作品不受時間和文化的界限影響，而且尊重建築物周遭的環境。

↗ Peter Zumthor 設計的 EXPO 2000 瑞士展覽館屋頂

1943年4月26日，Peter Zumthor 出生於瑞士巴塞爾(Basel)，他的父親是一位專門製作家具的木匠，1958年時，Zumthor 曾在一位木匠那邊以學徒的身份學習木工相關技術，因為有這層關係，一般認為 Zumthor 從他的父親身上學習到許多事物以及對於材料的瞭解等，Zumthor 自己也體悟到那種不畏艱難的心裡，認為工匠應該要克服技術上的問題，然後將作品以最完美的形態呈現出來；1963年，Zumthor 二十歲時進入了巴塞爾藝術與工藝學校 (Kunstgewerbeschule – Basel school of arts and crafts) 學習設計， (http://blog.zfconnor.cn)其後到了美國紐約的普瑞特學院（Pratt Institute）學習，在那被嚴格的工藝訓練清楚瞭解到現代主義的想法和感覺。

Peter Zumthor 的作品尺度都不大，但是他的每一棟建築物都對於基地和整體的計劃有很周詳考量 去反應出不同的感受 每一個作品都反應出人對於建築物基本元素 位置、材料、空間和光線的感覺。

在他早期工作裡，大部份的作品都位於瑞士最東邊一個名為「Graubunden」的州，在那裡的環境和文化是呈現出一種多種族混合的文化，在這裡拉丁人和條頓人（Teutonic）的文化被混入，也是臨接羅蔓斯人（Romansch）和德國人的邊境，Graubunden 下與義大利相接，所以在此區域 (http://blog.zfconnor.cn)呈現著非常多樣性的文化，並且 Peter Zumthor 早期也是在這裡的州政府紀念建築維護部門工作了12年，所以他非常的瞭解整個Graubunden 區域的城鎮廣場和拱廊，以及有著大山牆的鄉村房屋與穀倉， Zumthor 本身是一個地方主義者（regionalist），但他也充分的瞭解到過去的舊有建築物已經非常的好了而不能只是從舊有建築上模仿或複製，也在舊建築上學習到材料、氣候和配置的想法，而在他24歲的時候他去了許多戶外大自然的地方去調查學習感受一些自然的事物。

他最為膾炙人口的作品包括位於瑞士 Vals 的溫泉旅館(Thermal Baths Vals)、奧地利 Bregenz 美術館(Art Museum Bregenz)，以及2007年完工位於德國的 Cologne 美術館(Art Museum of the Archbishopric Cologne)。

如 Peter Zumthor 曾經說過「在找尋答案時，與其討論風格，還不如去探討方法或者特定的覺醒」，所以他的建築存在一種內省的特質，重視材料、構造與細部的理解，真實的面對材料特性、感官性等建築本質。而其構造形式則來自他所堅持的「custom-made architecture(客製建築)」理念， (http://blog.zfconnor.cn)強調建築要與基地環境相融合，回應自然環境與滿足建築機能。

例如他在奧地利Bregenz 的Bregenz 美術館(Art Museum Bregenz)簡潔地利用玻璃的接合方式及混凝土的質感豐富地表達了低調但空間氛圍豐富的室內空間及立面造形，成功地轉化光線於其展示空間之中。

儘管設計自然樸實卻又令人驚豔，但因為生為金牛座的 Peter Zumthor 性格內斂、作風低調，使他雖被許多人士尊崇，卻從未在建築明星的舞台上佔據一角，此次獲得2009年 Pritzker Architecture Prize(普立茲克建築獎)可謂是遲來的肯定。

Los Angeles is often portrayed as the example of the car-friendly city. The traditional image of the town is an endless pattern of single family dwellings, interconnected by traffic-clogged freeways, where transit is undeveloped and the air is choked with smog.

However, Los Angeles is changing. The city’s Transport Authority has planned in the last years a series of measures aiming to improve quality of life through improving transit and walking and providing alternative to car commuting.

The last measure of this series is Measure R, approved in November 2008, whose aims are:

1. Expand Los Angeles railway system, and connect it to the airport
2. Improve roads, making them safer for cyclist and pedestrians
3. Reduce higway congestion and improve highway safety
4. Expand the bus network, without increasing fares
5. Improve quality of life, trough better transportation options.

Measure R is a perfect occasion to rethink the image of the city, getting rid of its stereotypes, and in this direction goes the competition “A New Infrastructure“, organized by SCIFI (Southern California Institute for Future Initiatives) and The Architect’s Newspaper, whose results have been published on March 21, 2009.

Here are the results.

Professional Winners.
1st Prize: Más Transit
Radical Craft: Joshua G. Stein, Jacob M. Brostoff, Jaclyn Thomforde, Aaron Whelton

Más is regional high-speed rail for Los Angeles with a landscape to match. It diversifies the communities in the built environment, making travel less necessary, easier and more predictable, and bypassing roadway congestion through a new raised infrastructure. A partnership between the public and private sectors creates varied opportunities for organic development.

Travel times improve over time with the addition of new trains. Más also links local and inter-regional commuting; providing frequent service that will sync up with the California High Speed Rail network. San Diego via más is less than an hour away, including transfer times; San Francisco is less than three hours away.

2nd Prize: Infrastructural Armature

Fletcher Studio: Dylan Barlow, Ryan Chandler, Daniel Phillips, Tobi Adamolekun

Recognizing the vital role that mobility, water, and sewage will play in Los Angeles’ future, the city must begin to invest in a core armature of new bundled infrastructures which will allow the city to survive the impending reality of peak water and peak oil. 

The city must reorganize along the matrices of transportation, water and sewer networks, and grow infrastructural tentacles out into the world to ship and receive. 

3rd Prize: Mag Luv

Osborn Architects: Holly Chisholm, Kate Harvey, Armen Isagholi, Takeshi Kobayashi, Michael Pinto, Jared Sopko, Esmeralda Ward, Yuju Yeo

The scheme proposes eroding a portion of the freeway and supplanting it with a new object, mode, and form for adoration— Mag Luv.

The high speed magnetic levitation peripheral train appropriates freeway, right of way and “dream space” to become the mega structure of the Los Angeles transit system. The loop circumnavigates the city providing 12 hubs of activity, transportation, and power production.

Student Winners

1st Prize: Glocalizing Los Angeles

Ryan Lovett
University of California, Berkeley

The physical separations between places of work and play have become outdated and burdensome. Meanwhile the divide between commercial, residential, agricultural, and manufacturing zones have become so exaggerated that the infrastructures needed to connect and sustain them crumble in lack of upkeep and congestion.

In conjunction with newer, faster transit systems, this plan proposes a simple development strategy that collapses the distances between all the elements needed to support our lifestyles by suggesting that workplaces, as well as production of food and goods, be within walking distance.

2nd Prize: Modular Diffusion

Alan Lu, Yan-ping Wang
University of California, Berkeley

In a car, the passenger can go from any given point to another in one continuous trip. To achieve this level of mobility in tandem with an increase in roadway capacity, we introduce a mass transit system based upon a Modular Transit Vehicle (MTV for short). 

This modular system would allow passengers to (1) board from a wide range of street stops, (2) travel along the freeway, and (3) take the freeway exit closest to the destination drop passengers off there, all in one ride.

3rd Prize: Freeways Are For Trains

Ben Abelman, Vivian Ngo, Julia Siedle
Columbia University

This team believes that Los Angeles need not invest in a “new” public transportation system but transform its existing transportation system of freeways into “trainways”.

By taking over “freeways” with rail tracks, a comprehensive expansion of the LA Metro will respond to the projects that are indicated in Measure R and will commence at a much lower cost due to taking advantage of the rights of ways established by the freeway.

Professional Honorable Mentions

Mobility on Demand

RSA: Dwight Bond, Diane Tadena, James Wong

A combination of rail, light-rail, smart cars, bike share, and different bus systems will provide easy connection in and between cities. Multiple vehicle types provide users with choices among combinations of cost, comfort, and functionality.

A commuter might choose to ride the train to work, pick up a smart car to attend a meeting, go to the gym, pick up groceries before going back home.

In creating a dense commercial and residential environment to support and foster the inevitable expansion of the transit system, the scheme also investigates alternative development strategies that are adaptable to the ever changing conditions of our urban culture.

Green Tech City

NBBJ: Harry Bairamian, Hrant Bairamian, So Eun Cho, Tony Choi, Scott Hunter, Byoung Kweon, Anthony Manzo, Nnamdi Ugenyi, Jonathan Ward, Tim Zamora

This scheme created green tech districts along the Westside expansion corridor stretching from downtown to Santa Monica.

The plan likened itself to a living organism, including a Skeletal System composed of new green districts between stations; a respiratory system that included a 2.5 mile green park along the length of the transit system; and tendons, which were linkages to the community, like freeway bridges, human-scaled densities, walkability plans, urban parks, and agricultural zones.

Go Mixed-Modal

Tom Beresford

In 2000, LA Metro gambled that it could increase both ridership and transit efficiency by making a bus a little more like a subway: The Metro Rapid.  Mixed-modal goes even further to suggest that any bus has the potential to go “local,” “rapid” or “express” at coordinated points along its route to flexibly serve transit demand.

A bus may go “express” by entering grade-separated express lanes shared with planned or existing rail modes, with the help of new friction-less electric power-transfer technologies and hybrid rail/road drive surfaces.

The Mixed-modal project offers a vision of what the Expo line might look like if it operated as the “trunk” of a regional transit tree with “branches” extending up and down existing Metro Rapid lines.

Student Honorable Mentions

Feeding Community and the Gold Line

Roe Goodman
University of British Columbia

If we are to develop along a freeway we need to keep in mind that the surrounding residential neighborhoods need to access the train in a way that encourages a shift away from car dependency.

This entry proposes a string of micro-scale infill developments along a bus line that feeds into the Eastside Transit Corridor.

Positioned along newly developed commercial corridors, stops have waiting rooms that store bikes, serve as markets, and create a center of community.

Interstate 10

Tim Do, George LaBeth, Randy Stogsdill

This scheme proposes a a reconsideration of the existing freeway corridor as a multi-function transit corridor. The existing freeway would be retrofitted with a new structure above that over a series of stages adds layers of public and environmental friendly transit options.

As this second tier becomes more populated, greenscaping is added, converting the freeway corridor into a vibrant public space.

Cross-Link/ Cross-Program

Minjeong Gweon
Cal Poly Pomona

Los Angeles’ current subway network relies too much on a centralized spoke network approach. A more effective subway system should also include cross-linkages. This subway design project looks to develop a new cross-link between the existing red line (which connect Hollywood and Downtown) and the future purple Westside Extension line.

The proposed connecting line would add three new stops: the first at Santa Monica Blvd. and Highland Ave, the second at Santa Monica and Fairfax and the third at La Cienega. The connecting point to the red line would be at Hollywood and Highland, and the connecting point to the future purple line would be located at the Beverly Center.

Organizers’ Selection

Fast, Fluid and Free

ODBQ/Odile Decq

This project takes advantage of LA’s polycentric character, developing a grid of multimodal transit systems, articulated on different levels within the existing city. On the scale of the city, the plan proposes a Free Car Transport System, on the model of free bike systems largely developed in Europe today. Electric cars will be available for hire throughout the city.

Other proposals include Smooth Jumps over Motorways: stations that combine the urban proposal of green park links between the two sides of the freeways by building a station over them, and containing contain carparks, commerce, Free Car and Free Bike  stations.

The Answer is not Mass(ive) Transit

Wes Jones

Instead of the massive, resource-intensive, and inflexible infrastructure that results from top-down approaches to planning, this proposal argues, why not consider a flexible, pragmatic, small-scale, bottom-up approach?

Introducing the Elov, a small, pod-like vehicle that fits into less space than a smart car and reduces the volume of traffic by serving the same number of occupants in only one quarter of the space. Because of its light weight and micromotor efficiency, the Elov can be charged overnight using home outlets, further reducing the required infrastructure.

A NEW INFRASTRUCTURE: Innovative Transit Solutions for Los Angeles

An Open Ideas Competition
Sponsored by SCIFI at SCI-Arc and The Architect’s Newspaper

Los Angeles, CA (January 15, 2009) – The passage in November 2008 of Measure R, a half cent sales tax in Los Angeles County, will provide as much as $40 billion for transit-related projects across the City of Los Angeles over the next 30 years. Meanwhile, U.S. President Barack Obama has pledged to make the largest investment since the 1950s to rebuild our nation’s crumbling infrastructure.

In response to this historic opportunity, the SCIFI (Southern California Institute of Future Initiatives) program at the Southern California Institute of Architecture (SCI-Arc) and The Architect’s Newspaper are sponsoring an open ideas competition for architects, engineers, urban planners and students to propose new ideas for LA County’s transit infrastructure.

The competition will encourage entrants to develop solutions that dramatically rethink the relationship between transit systems, public space and urban redevelopment. Competitors will be encouraged to work within the parameters of LA County Ballot Measure R. Their entries will focus on specific rail extension projects and also take a look at larger-scale, inter-related transit planning challenges.

The competition jury will include Thom Mayne, Principal and Founder of Morphosis Architects;Professor, UCLA, Aspet Davidian, Director, Project Engineering Facilities, LA Metro, Neil Denari, Professor, UCLA; Principal, Neil M. Denari Architects, Gail Goldberg, Director of Planning, City of Los Angeles, Roland Genick, Urban Designer, Exposition Line, Cecilia V.

私募基金，股票的暴利并不产生于生产经营，而是产生于股票市场本身的投机性。它的运作动力是：把你口袋里的钱装到我口袋里去。它的规则是：把大多数羊的肉填到极少数狼的嘴里。私募基金是从狼嘴里夹肉，这就要求你得比狼更黑更狠，但是心理成本也更高，而且又多了一重股市之外的风险。所以，得适可而止。

私募基金是没爹没娘的买卖，一边做生意，一边得准备拼刀子，脑后还得长只眼睛看衙门的脸色。

突发奇想，股票每天的涨停限制是10%,如果每天都是涨停，一年下来会有多少收益呢？

计算了一下，确实很惊奇。

每年365天，工作日，也就是交易日大概240天左右，而增长的计算是(1+0.1)的240次方，计算结果很让人吃惊~

假定，是T+0的模式~

居然是85亿。所以，投资应该诉求的是长期的正收益率，而不是短期的高收益率。

4月16日，俄罗斯圣彼得堡，一架米-26直升机将一架图-134客机吊往圣彼得堡郊外的俄紧急情况部训练中心。（中国网）

这架退役客机从普尔科沃机场起吊，运往紧急情况部训练中心，作为俄安全部队应对突发事件训练之用。图-134客机是前苏联图波列夫设计局研制的支线运输机，机长37.05米，载客76～80人。

米-26是俄罗斯米里莫斯科直升机厂股份公司研制的多用途重型直升机，北约绰号“光环”（Halo），是当今世界上最重的直升机。米-26最大内载和外挂载荷为20吨，相当于美国C-130运输机的运输能力。

米-26直升机目前主要用于向偏远地区运送大型设备和人员，但其具有极明显的军事用途，米-26的军用型座舱可运送装甲车或85名全副武装士兵。

米-26采用8片半径16米长的矩形桨叶旋翼，是世界采用桨叶片数最多的单旋翼直升机，其桨毂由钛合金制成。

中国飞龙专业航空公司2007年向俄罗斯罗斯托夫直升机联合公司租用了1架米-26TC型重型直升机，主要用于森林防火灭火、吊装高压电力设备等作业。图为2008年5月28日，米-26直升机向四川地震灾区唐家山堰塞湖吊运重型工程设备。
