For outdoor adventure that's accessible, take an urban hike 简单的户外运动——城市徒步旅行 2005ƒÍ12‘¬17»’     ±æŒƒƒ—“◊µ»º∂: ¯E¯E One of Sylvia Allen's favorite hiking routes affords amazing views of the Pacific Ocean as it winds north along rocky cliffs through cypress and pine forests. Also amazing is that Allen never leaves the city, in this case San Francisco, when she takes her trek. "You absolutely do not," she says, "have to be in the country to go hiking." Urban hikes, whether they lead under the Golden Gate Bridge or simply to a coffee shop two neighborhoods over, provide the ultimate in accessible adventure. The recreation promotes physical, mental and community health, and also wins points for what it doesn't offer: long drives to trailheads, gear-laden packs to schlep, and extended exposure to nasty weather. Here's everything you need to know before hitting the trail, or sidewalk. "Bring water, a snack, and good, comfortable shoes," says Allen, whose company, City Hikes, guides expeditions within San Francisco. "And a lot of people have unrealistic notions of what comfortable shoes means." She recommends hiking boots. Once equipped, figure out where to go. Experienced hikers recommend tailoring your route to fit an interest, like architecture, food or a view. "Not to belittle trees," says Patty Fares of San Diego's Urban Safaris, "but in nature, you're pretty much limited to trees and maybe birds." Whereas Fares is fond of hiking through her city's Hillcrest neighborhood, which features cool buildings, coffee shops and paths leading into verdant Balboa Park. Despite her arboreal quip, she suggests dipping into a park to let your ears and eyes escape the urban environment. Speaking of others, consider inviting company on your urban hike, starting with family. Burden cites studies that indicate children who walk outdoors, and who live in pedestrian-friendly areas, are less prone to obesity and more likely to perform well academically. "It's so important that people understand this is not a foreign activity," he adds. "People have always walked, hiked and discovered." Organized hikes and walking clubs provide motivation and an opportunity to learn new routes and meet people. Five years ago, the Big Apple's health department and Neighborhood Open Space Coalition launched a free series of organized urban adventures called Take a Walk New York! Each weekend, dozens of TAWNYs, as they're nicknamed, converge on a different neighborhood for a three-hour hike, such as leaf peeping in the west Bronx or exploring a saltwater marsh in Queens. For help finding fellow walkers and nearby routes, the Web site of the American Hiking Society offers searchable databases of clubs and trails. But keep in mind that an urban hike is about the journey, not the planning or the destination. "Just explore. That's what I've always done," says City Hikes' Allen. "I'll say, hmmm, I wonder where this goes ... and just follow it."

Wish You Were Here 　　 　　so,so u think u can tell? 　　heaven from hell, 　　blue sky from pain. 　　can u tell a green field from a cold steel rail? 　　a smile from a veil? 　　do u think u can tell? 　　and did they get u to trade 　　your heros for Ghosts? 　　hot ashes for trees? 　　hor air for a cool breezes? 　　cold comfort for change? 　　and did u exchange a walk on part in the war 　　for a lead role in a cage? 　　how i wish, how i wish u were here. 　　were just two lost Souls 　　swimming in a fish boel, 　　year after year, 　　running over the same old ground. 　　what have we found? 　　the same old tears. 　　wish u were here.

但愿你在这儿 　　 　　So,你以为你能区分天堂与地狱？ 　　蓝天与痛楚？ 　　那你能区分一片绿地与一道冰凉的铁栅栏吗？ 　　还有那微笑与面纱？ 　　你真以为你能区分得开吗？ 　　他们是否迫使你将英勇献给鬼魂？ 　　火红的灰烬献给树林？ 　　火热的空气献给冷冷的风？ 　　冰凉的舒坦献给动荡？ 　　是否将你在战争中行走的自由 　　换去当一个笼中的领袖？ 　　我好想，我好想你还在这儿。 　　我们就像两个迷失的魂灵 　　在鱼池里游荡， 　　在苍茫的大地上奔跑， 　　年复一年。

Mama,that summer, on the way to klitsemi,my strawhat flew down the mountains.

Mama,do u remember,the old strawhat you give me? I lost that hat long time ago,it flew to the goggy canyon.

Mama,I wonder that happened to that old strawhat which fell down the mountain-side and whirled out of my reach like your heart. Suddenly that wind came up,stealing my hat from me.Swilling gust of wind blew it higher and higher.

Mama,that old strawhat was the only one I really love. But I lost it,no one could bring it back,like the life you give me.

Mama,that summer, on the way to Klitsemi,I lost my strawhat.The lilies along the road wilted.And under that strawhat,the crickets wept every night.

Orange

The color of warm that represents love and happiness, freedom and liberation. color

therapists believe it fights depression and is good for eveything from flighting

gallstones to stimulating digestion and the immune system. Created by dousing the

fierce hear of rea with the aggression of yellow,it is an overwhelingly friendly

color,which is soft,warm,and remarkably esay to live with. Its tones range from

tangerine to treea cotta and the golden fiery glow of a long,hot summer sunset.In

nature,it suggests the heat or the tang of citrus. Orange combines warmth with

passion. It also stimilates the appetite,so use it sparingly in the kitchen. Inside a

house, an orange glow from the fire can be exceptionally flattering.Outside,it

suggests dusty,Mediterranean heat.
