Act IV. Scene III.
The Florentine Camp.
Enter the two French
and two or three
First Lord.
You have not given him his mothers letter?
Sec. Lord.
I have delivered it an hour since: there is something in t that stings his nature, for on the reading it he changed almost into another man.
First Lord.
He has much worthy blame laid upon him for shaking off so good a wife and so sweet a lady.
Sec. Lord.
Especially he hath incurred the everlasting displeasure of the king, who had even tuned his bounty to sing happiness to him. I will tell you a thing, but you shall let it dwell darkly with you.
First Lord.
When you have spoken it, tis dead, and I am the grave of it.
Sec. Lord.
He hath perverted a young gentle-woman here in Florence, of a most chaste renown; and this night he fleshes his will in the spoil of her honour: he hath given her his monumental ring, and thinks himself made in the unchaste composition.
First Lord.
Now, God delay our rebellion! as we are ourselves, what things are we!
Sec. Lord.
Merely our own traitors: and as in the common course of all treasons, we still see them reveal themselves, till they attain to their abhorred ends, so he that in this action contrives against his own nobility, in his proper stream oerflows himself.
First Lord.
Is it not most damnable in us, to be trumpeters of our unlawful intents? We shall not then have his company to-night?
Sec. Lord.
Not till after midnight, for he is dieted to his hour.
First Lord.
That approaches apace: I would gladly have him see his company anatomized, that he might take a measure of his own judgments, wherein so curiously he had set this counterfeit.
Sec. Lord.
We will not meddle with him till he come, for his presence must be the whip of the other.
First Lord.
In the meantime what near you of these wars?
Sec. Lord.
I hear there is an overture of peace.
First Lord.
Nay, I assure you, a peace concluded.
Sec. Lord.
What will Count Rousillon do then? will he travel higher, or return again into France?
First Lord.
I perceive by this demand, you are not altogether of his council.
Sec. Lord.
Let it be forbid, sir; so should I be a great deal of his act.
First Lord.
Sir, his wife some two months since fled from his house: her pretence is a pilgrimage to Saint Jaques le Grand; which holy undertaking with most austere sanctimony she accomplished; and, there residing, the tenderness of her nature became as a prey to her grief; in fine, made a groan of her last breath, and now she sings in heaven.
Sec. Lord.
How is this justified?
First Lord.
The stronger part of it by her own letters, which make her story true, even to the point of her death: her death itself, which could not be her office to say is come, was faithfully confirmed by the rector of the place.
Sec. Lord.
Hath the count all this intelligence?
First Lord.
Ay, and the particular confirmations, point from point, to the full arming of the verity.
Sec. Lord.
I am heartily sorry that hell be glad of this.
First Lord.
How mightily sometimes we make us comforts of our losses!
Sec. Lord.
And how mightily some other times we drown our gain in tears! The great dignity that his valour hath here acquired for him shall at home be encountered with a shame as ample.
First Lord.
The web of our life is of a mingled yarn, good and ill together: our virtues would be proud if our faults whipped them not; and our crimes would despair if they were not cherished by our virtues.
Enter a
How now! wheres your master?
He met the duke in the street, sir, of whom he hath taken a solemn leave: his lordship will next morning for France. The duke hath offered him letters of commendations to the king.
Sec. Lord.
They shall be no more than needful there, if they were more than they can commend.
First Lord.
They cannot be too sweet for the kings tartness. Heres his lordship now.
How now, my lord! is t not after midnight?
I have to-night dispatched sixteen businesses, a months length a-piece, by an abstract of success: I have conged with the duke, done my adieu with his nearest, buried a wife, mourned for her, writ to my lady mother I am returning, entertained my convoy; and between these main parcels of dispatch effected many nicer needs: the last was the greatest, but that I have not ended yet.
Sec. Lord.
If the business be of any difficulty, and this morning your departure hence, it requires haste of your lordship.
I mean, the business is not ended, as fearing to hear of it hereafter. But shall we have this dialogue between the fool and the soldier? Come, bring forth this counterfeit model: he has deceived me, like a double-meaning prophesier.
Sec. Lord.
Bring him forth. [
Has sat i the stocks all night, poor gallant knave.
No matter; his heels have deserved it, in usurping his spurs so long. How does he carry himself?
First Lord.
I have told your lordship already, the stocks carry him. But to answer you as you would be understood; he weeps like a wench that had shed her milk: he hath confessed himself to Morgan,whom he supposes to be a friar,from the time of his remembrance to this very instant disaster of his setting i the stocks: and what think you he hath confessed?
Nothing of me, has a?
Sec. Lord.
His confession is taken, and it shall be read to his face: if your lordship be in t, as I believe you are, you must have the patience to hear it.
A plague upon him! muffled! he can say nothing of me: hush! hush!
First Lord.
Hoodman comes!
Porto tartarossa.
First Sold.
He calls for the tortures: what will you say without em?
I will confess what I know without constraint: if ye pinch me like a pasty, I can say no more.
First Sold.
Bosko chimurcho.
First Lord.
Boblibindo chicurmurco.
First Sold.
You are a merciful general. Our general bids you answer to what I shall ask you out of a note.
And truly, as I hope to live.
First Sold.
First, demand of him how many horse the duke is strong.
What say you to that?
Five or six thousand; but very weak and unserviceable: the troops are all scattered, and the commanders very poor rogues, upon my reputation and credit, and as I hope to live.
First Sold.
Shall I set down your answer so?
Do: Ill take the sacrament on t, how and which way you will.
Alls one to him. What a past-saving slave is this!
First Lord.
You are deceived, my lord: this is Monsieur Parolles, the gallant militarist,that was his own phrase,that had the whole theorick of war in the knot of his scarf, and the practice in the chape of his dagger.
Sec. Lord.
I will never trust a man again for keeping his sword clean; nor believe he can have everything in him by wearing his apparel neatly.
First Sold.
Well, thats set down.
Five or six thousand horse, I said,I will say true,or thereabouts, set down, for Ill speak truth.
First Lord.
Hes very near the truth in this.
But I con him no thanks for t, in the nature he delivers it.
Poor rogues, I pray you, say.
First Sold.
Well, thats set down.
I humbly thank you, sir. A truths a truth; the rogues are marvellous poor.
First Sold.
Demand of him, of what strength they are a-foot.
What say you to that?
By my troth, sir, if I were to live this present hour, I will tell true. Let me see: Spurio, a hundred and fifty; Sebastian, so many; Corambus, so many; Jaques, so many; Guiltian, Cosmo, Lodowick, and Gratii, two hundred fifty each; mine own company, Chitopher, Vaumond, Bentii, two hundred fifty each: so that the muster-file, rotten and sound, upon my life, amounts not to fifteen thousand poll; half of the which dare not shake the snow from off their cassocks, lest they shake themselves to pieces.
What shall be done to him?
First Lord.
Nothing, but let him have thanks. Demand of him my condition, and what credit I have with the duke.
First Sold.
Well, thats set down.
You shall demand of him, whether one Captain Dumain be i the camp, a Frenchman; what his reputation is with the duke; what his valour, honesty, and expertness in wars; or whether he thinks it were not possible, with well-weighing sums of gold, to corrupt him to a revolt.
What say you to this? what do you know of it?
I beseech you, let me answer to the particular of the intergatories: demand them singly.
First Sold.
Do you know this Captain Dumain?
I know him: a was a botchers prentice in Paris, from whence he was whipped for getting the shrieves fool with child; a dumb innocent, that could not say him nay. [D
lifts up his hand in anger.
Nay, by your leave, hold your hands; though I know his brains are forfeit to the next tile that falls.
First Sold.
Well, is this captain in the Duke of Florences camp?
Upon my knowledge he is, and lousy.
First Lord.
Nay, look not so upon me; we shall hear of your lordship anon.
First Sold.
What is his reputation with the duke?
The duke knows him for no other but a poor officer of mine, and writ to me this other day to turn him out o the band: I think I have his letter in my pocket.
First Sold.
Marry, well search.
In good sadness, I do not know: either it is there, or it is upon a file with the dukes other letters in my tent.
First Sold.
Here tis; heres a paper; shall I read it to you?
I do not know if it be it or no.
Our interpreter does it well.
First Lord.
First Sold.
Dian, the counts a fool, and full of gold
That is not the dukes letter, sir; that is an advertisement to a proper maid in Florence, one Diana, to take heed of the allurement of one Count Rousillon, a foolish idle boy, but for all that very ruttish. I pray you, sir, put it up again.
First Sold.
Nay, Ill read it first, by your favour.
My meaning in t, I protest, was very honest in the behalf of the maid; for I knew the young count to be a dangerous and lascivious boy, who is a whale to virginity, and devours up all the fry it finds.
Damnable both-sides rogue!
First Sold.
When he swears oaths, bid him drop gold, and take it;
After he scores, he never pays the score:
Half won is match well made; match, and well make it;
He neer pays after-debts; take it before,
And say a soldier, Dian, told thee this,
Men are to mell with, boys are not to kiss;
For count of this, the counts a fool, I know it,
Who pays before, but not when he does owe it.
Thine, as he vowd to thee in thine ear,
He shall be whipped through the army with this rime in s forehead.
First Lord.
This is your devoted friend, sir; the manifold linguist and the armipotent soldier.
I could endure anything before but a cat, and now hes a cat to me.
First Sold.
I perceive, sir, by our generals looks, we shall be fain to hang you.
My life, sir, in any case! not that I am afraid to die; but that, my offences being many, I would repent out the remainder of nature. Let me live, sir, in a dungeon, i the stocks, or anywhere, so I may live.
First Sold.
Well see what may be done, so you confess freely: therefore, once more to this Captain Dumain. You have answered to his reputation with the duke and to his valour: what is his honesty?
He will steal, sir, an egg out of a cloister; for rapes and ravishments he parallels Nessus; he professes not keeping of oaths; in breaking em he is stronger than Hercules; he will lie, sir, with such volubility, that you would think truth were a fool; drunkenness is his best virtue, for he will be swine-drunk, and in his sleep he does little harm, save to his bed-clothes about him; but they know his conditions, and lay him in straw. I have but little more to say, sir, of his honesty: he has everything that an honest man should not have; what an honest man should have, he has nothing.
First Lord.
I begin to love him for this.
For this description of thine honesty? A pox upon him for me! he is more and more a cat.
First Sold.
What say you to his expertness in war?
Faith, sir, he has led the drum before the English tragedians,to belie him I will not,and more of his soldiership I know not; except, in that country, he had the honour to be the officer at a place there called Mile-end, to instruct for the doubling of files: I would do the man what honour I can, but of this I am not certain.
First Lord.
He hath out-villained villany so far, that the rarity redeems him.
pox on him! hes a cat still.
First Sold.
His qualities being at this poor price, I need not ask you, if gold will corrupt him to revolt.
Sir, for a cardecu he will sell the fee-simple of his salvation, the inheritance of it; and cut the entail from all remainders, and a perpetual succession for it perpetually.
First Sold.
Whats his brother, the other Captain Dumain?
Sec. Lord.
Why does he ask him or me?
First Sold.
Whats he?
Een a crow o the same nest; not altogether so great as the first in goodness, but greater a great deal in evil. He excels his brother for a coward, yet his brother is reputed one of the best that is. In a retreat he out-runs any lackey; marry, in coming on he has the cramp.
First Sold.
If your life be saved, will you undertake to betray the Florentine?
Ay, and the captain of his horse, Count Rousillon.
First Sold.
Ill whisper with the general, and know his pleasure.
] Ill no more drumming; a plague of all drums! Only to seem to deserve well, and to beguile the supposition of that lascivious young boy the count, have I run into this danger. Yet who would have suspected an ambush where I was taken?
First Sold.
There is no remedy, sir, but you must die. The general says, you, that have so traitorously discovered the secrets of your army, and made such pestiferous reports of men very nobly held, can serve the world for no honest use; therefore you must die. Come, headsman, off with his head.
O Lord, sir, let me live, or let me see my death!
First Sold.
That shall you, and take your leave of all your friends. [
Unmuffling him.
So, look about you: know you any here?
Good morrow, noble captain.
Sec. Lord.
God bless you, Captain Parolles.
First Lord.
God save you, noble captain.
Sec. Lord.
Captain, what greeting will you to my Lord Lafeu? I am for France.
First Lord.
Good captain, will you give me a copy of the sonnet you writ to Diana in behalf of the Count Rousillon? an I were not a very coward Id compel it of you; but fare you well. [
First Sold.
You are undone, captain; all but your scarf; that has a knot on t yet.
Who cannot be crushed with a plot?
First Sold.
If you could find out a country where but women were that had received so much shame, you might begin an impudent nation. Fare ye well, sir; I am for France too: we shall speak of you there. [
Yet am I thankful: if my heart were great
Twould burst at this. Captain Ill be no more;
But I will eat and drink, and sleep as soft
As captain shall: simply the thing I am
Shall make me live. Who knows himself a braggart,
Let him fear this; for it will come to pass
That every braggart shall be found an ass.
Rust, sword! cool, blushes! and Parolles, live
Safest in shame! being foold, by foolery thrive!
Theres place and means for every man alive.
Ill after them. [

Medians and centroids
Triangle medians and centroids Seeing that the centroid is 2/3 of the way along every median
⇐ Use this menu to view and help create subtitles for this video in many different languages.
You'll probably want to hide YouTube's captions if using these subtitles.
- I wanna do a quick refresher on medians of triangles
- also explore interesting property of them that would be useful,
- think,to a future problem so let me just draw an arbitrary,
- an arbitrary triangle over here, now that's good enough
- Now a median of the triangle, and we'll see the median,
- a triangle has 3 of them, it's just a line that connects
- a vertex of a triangle with the midpoint of the opposite sides,
- so the opposite sides midpoint looks like right about there,
- this length is equal to the length, and so this is a median,
- close enough
- And of course we have 3 vertexes, we'll have 3 medians
- if start at this vertex, we wanna go to the midpoint
- of the opposite side, it looks like it's right about there
- so this blue line over here is another median
- It's not a completely straight line but you get the idea
- And we can also do it from this point, right over here,
- draw a line from this vertex to the mid point of the opposite side
- let's see the midpoint of the opposite side is there
- And we draw a line, each of these;
- I can draw a straighter "line" than that
- We draw, well think you get the idea
- These are all medians of this triangle
- And what's next about medians,
- is that all 3 medians always intersect in one point
- And that by itself is a pretty neat property
- That one point that they intersect is a called a centroid
- It's called a centroid, it's called the centroid
- And if this was a physical triangle, let's say you made it out of iron,
- and if you were to toss it, or even before you toss it,
- the centroid would actually be the center of mass
- Let's say this is an iron triangle,
- lets say right here this is an iron triangle,
- that has it's centroid right over here,
- then this iron's triangle center of mass would be the centroid is,
- assuming the uniform density, and if you would have thrown,
- it would have rotate, it would have rotate around this points,
- around, around, assuming it had some a rotational motion
- around that centroid, around the center mass
- But anyway the point of this video is not to focus on physics
- and throwing iron, triangles
- The point here is, I wanna show you a neat properties of medians
- and the property is the distance from, if you pick any median
- the distance from the centroid to the midpoint of the opposite side
- so this distance is gonna be half of this distance
- So this distance right here is A, then this distance right here is 2A
- Or another way to think about this,
- this distance is 2/3 of the length of the entire median
- And this distance right here is 1/3 of the length of the entire median
- And let's just prove it for ourselves,
- just so you don't have to take things, take things on faith
- And to do that I'll draw an arbitrary triangle,
- I'll do a 2 dimensional triangle, I'll even do a 3 dimensions,
- at least in my mind it makes the math,
- it makes the math a little bit easier
- In general whenever you take a,
- Whenever you have N dimensional
- that you embed on an N +1 dimension,
- it makes the math a little bit easier
- That actually tetrahedron problem we did,
- you can actually embed a four dimension
- that would make the math easier,
- it's much harder to visualize because I didn't do it that way
- So lets just have an arbitrary triangle,
- let's say it has a vertex there, a vertex there and a vertex there
- I'm not making any assumptions about the triangle
- I'm not saying its an isosceles and equilateral, anything,
- its just an arbitrary triangle
- 8And so lets say its coordinate, lets say its coordinate right over here is,
- I call this the X-axis, this is the X-axis, this the Y-axis and the Z-axis,
- I know some of you are already used to swapping these two axis
- but it doesn't make a different so lets call this coordinator right here
- A, 0, 0 so it's A along the X-axis
- Let's call this coordinate 0, B, 0
- Let's call this coordinate up here 0, 0, 0, C
- So if you connect the points, you're gonna have a triangle
- You're going to have a triangle just like that
- Now the centroid of a triangle especially in 3 dimensions
- the centroid of is going to be the average,
- the average of the coordinates of the vertexes
- or the coordinate of the centroid, the coordinate of the centorid here
- its just gonna be the average of the coordinates of the vertexes
- So the coordinate right this over here is gonna be,
- so for the x coordinate we have 0, 0, 0 + A
- so we have 3 coordinates they add up to A so we have to divide up by 3 so its
- A over 3
- The Y coordinate is gonna be B+0+B+0 they add to B, but we have 3 off them
- And the same thing we do it for the for the Z coordinate,
- the average is gonna C, it's C over 3 and
- I'm not proving anything to right here, you can verify it for yourself,
- but its going to be the average, figuring out what this line is,
- this ine is and this line is
- This centroid or the center of this mass of this triangle,
- if it had some
- mass is just the average of these coordinates
- Now what we wanna do is use this information,
- let's just use this coordinate
- and compare just using the distance formula,
- lets compare this distance, lets compare this distance
- up here in orange to this distance down here, down here in yellow
- And remember this point down here, this is the point
- the median of this, of this bottom side right over here, so the median of this bottom side
- Is just gonna be the average of the these two points
- and so the X coordinates 0 plus A
- B + 0 over 2 is gonna be B over 2
- And then it has no Z coordinates so it's just gonna be 0
- 0 + 0 over 2 = 0
- So we know the coordinates for this point, that point and that point
- so we can calculate the yellow distance
- and we can calculate the orange distance
- So lets calculate the orange distance
- So that is gonna be equal to the square root of, square root,
- The orange disntace is going to be the square root of,
- which we'll take the difference of each of these point square
- so it's A over 3 minus 0 squared,
- that's gonna be A square over nine over 9
- so that's gonna plus B over three minus 0 square over 9,
- plus C over 3, minus C which is negative 2/3, that's negative 2/3
- and we want to square that, so we're gonna have positive
- 4 over 9 positive C square, did I do that right?
- C over 3, so 1/3 minus 1 is negative 2/3, so this is negative 2/3 C,
- you square it, you're gonna get 4 9 C squar
- So that's the orange distance, now let's calculate,
- and if we wanna do it we can actually,
- we can express it a little simpler than this ,
- this is the same thing as a square root
- of A square + B square + 4 C square over the square root of 9,
- which is just, that's just equal to that's just, the equal to 3
- So lets do the same thing with the yellow distance
- so if gona be equal to have A over 2 - A over 3
- so 1/2 minuses 1/3 that's the same thing
- as 3/6 minuses 2/6 so 1/6 A square over 36
- B over 2 minus B over 3 is B over 6, you square it,
- you got plus B square over 36
- An then finally you have 0 minus C over 3
- over square, that's gonna be a C square over nine
- that's when we get a common denominator
- C square over nine is the same things as plus 4 C square over 36
- and we can rewrite this as a square root of
- A + B square + Four C square over 9
- So you can see this distance right here,
- if you multiply this orange distance by 1/2
- you're going to get, so if you multiply by 1/2
- or you divide it by 2, so if you multiply by 1/2
- you get the yellow distance
- So this is always gonna be twice the disntsaces
- So we do this in the most general possible way,
- we assume nothing about this triangle
- Remember that little property the centroid,
- the if the intersection of the medians,
- if the intersection happens 2/3s along every median
- 2/3s away from the vertex or 1/3 away
- of the length of median away from the midpoint of the opposite side
- We can use this property in,
- well we can use it in a bunch of problems
- Anyway, I hope you found that interesting

Rated 5 out of 5 by UPSCHEF69 Best Lever-Action there is!
I have owned Winchesters and many Marlins, and this Henry Big Boy 44magnum is not only my favorite lever action of all time, it is the second Henry I have owned and loved. And, not only is the Henry action the smoothest lever out there, but the wood is Missouri Walnut, which is some of the finest there is! I just got back from Wyoming antelope hunting, and with open sights, I came within a whisper of downing an antelope from 400 yards away +, shooting Hornady 225gr. FTX 44mag LEVERevolution ammo. It shoots 1410 fps from the muzzle, and is extremely accurate out of this Henry Big Boy 44mag\44spl rifle. I would recommend this gun to anyone wanting a top quality very accurate lever-action rifle. After all, just like Winchester and Marlin, Henry has been around since the Post Civil War era, but this rifle will bring a touch of class to your gun collection, and I know you will be a proud owner!

Rated 5 out of 5 by BigCreek Best value lever gun
Recently purchased the Henry Big Boy .44, and I continue to be very impressed with the exceptional quality of this rifle! You simply cannot find another rifle in this price range that equals the fit and finish of the Henry. The bluing is deep and rich, and the figured walnut stock is equal to guns costing thousands more.
Warning! Shooting this gun can be addicting! The heavy octagon barrel soaks up recoil like a sponge, and the action is smooth as silk right out of the box.
The only downsides (small ones to me): The buckhorn sight does not have adequate tension to prevent it from moving on the ramp (check it often), and the brass alloy receiver is so highly polished, it reflects light like a mirror. Still, for such a handsome gun, it's well worth wrapping the brass with tape if the situation warrants. Some shooters will not like the top loading tube magazine, but I don't see it as a negative.
Very gratifying to see a gunmaker committed to producing a world class rifle in the US, made from 100% American components.
This is an heirloom quality gun. Anyone wanting a pistol caliber lever gun should give the Henry strong consideration.

I bought this gun last spring and so far I love it. It is a beautiful gun with the brass reciever and butt plate. I have shot 44 specials and mags out of it. The action is very smooth. It is very accurate shooting the 44 mags. The sight are very easy to see and use. The octagonal barrel does make the gun a little heavy but really helps the accuracy. I have no problem shooting eggs at 100 yds with it.

I love this gun. This makes the second Henry I have purchased. Actually my wife bought the first one for me. This is a very well made gun as are all Henry Rifles. It does cost more than other rifles but is well worth it. I put a scope on it and use ammo made for the lever action rifles. This trio works great together. I highly recommend this rifle. In fact I am looking forward to getting the 357 Mag also. Henry is such a great gun that I just purchased 6 22's for my grand sons for Christmas

No, most Henry rifles have right handed ejection port. Being a left handed shooter lever action guns work very well.. Only bolt action right handed rifles pose the most problems.A:

No, but other condition may apply to your ablility to purchase a firearm, it varies for state to stateAnswers
Yes. I put one on using the scope mount from Henry. It is easy to mount and works great.A:
I just put one my gun.I had to order the base mount from Henry because nobody in my area stocks them . You need to know if you have gen 1 or a newer gen 2 . The gen 2 is pre drilled for the scope mount.Gen 1 is cantalever style mount.Answers
10 in the tube and 1 in the chamber.Details:
It's chambered for .44 Magnum, and not all lever guns chambered for .44 Mag will actually feed .44 Special ammunition.Does anybody have any experience feeding .44 Special (not Magnum) into the Henry H006?
According to the owner's manual: The model H006 is chambered for the .44 magnum cartridge. The .44 S&W Special cartridge can also be fired in a model H006. Do NOT use Blazer or any other aluminum cased ammunition in the rifle.Answers
You load the gun by pulling the rod out of the tube and inserting the cartridge untill it is full, then insert the rod back into the tube.1 of 1

Welcome bonniec1. Xiezhi's episode will air in feburary because next week's episode is starring our local actress and actor.
Here are links to cute pictures of Xiezhi filming for the Anhui tv station show《周日我最大》:
I think he looks really shuai in the grey sweater and his hairstyle this time is quite nice too! Very cute! Can't wait until they broadcast these and can't wait for the BWDGX recording next week!
erm it's probably irrelevent but what's with the half eaten banana? it's strange because I just can't figure out what circumstances would lead to that. Why would the production team serve a banana on a plate in a programme anyway!!... what type of programme was it again?
The program is a variety show and the part where he is wearing a grey sweater looks like a Chinese New Year's short comedy skit. Looks like he performs a magic trick in that part too.
The bananas are a little odd though.

Here are some pictures of Xiezhi recording at yesterday's BWDGX:
Fans at the recording posted that poor Xiezhi had a cold. Cute outfit though.

Saw this piece of news http://asianfanatics.net/forum/topic...filming-drama/
A combination of last year's filming of liaozhai and filming of BWDGX 2 days ago.
Finally! Someone at baidu has uploaded the baseball show Xiezhi was talking about in his blog a few days ago:
Still waiting to dl it first before watching it.
Well- I watched the baseball show and Xiezhi is pretty amazing at pitching! BTW anyone knows when Xiezhi's episode of the Singapore cooking show will be broadcasted? Maybe close to CNY?
More pictures of Xiezhi at BWDGX. Same news topic about him losing his voice at the recording.

Bonniec1, think the ep of 3 cai 1 tang with Xiezhi will air after CNY.
Oh, do you have the eps of BWDGX with Xiezhi in it, Xiezhi and Renfu's ep of 3C1T and Renfu's ep of 3C1T and the baseball show that Xiezhi had attended recently? Can you upload to megaupload or 4shared for me and so i can d/l it??? Thanks.
Thanks, pat/clare. I only have the Sept episode of BWDGX with Xiezhi and the baseball show in rmvb format. I'll send you a pm since this forum doesn't allow posting of download links on the thread.
(edit) I just sent you a pm.

Bonniec1, thank you very much. I'm d/ling it now. And you are welcome
Bonniec1, i had just sent you a PM. Sorry to trouble you again.
No problem, you're welcome pat/clare. I just sent you a pm.
BTW here are some really cute pictures that Xiezhi posted on his blog from the BWDGX recording and a fan reposted on baidu:
Thanks bonniec1 for the baidu link.
I had replied your PM.
I should mention that Xiezhi posted that he lost his voice after the BWDGX recording but is 80-90% better now. I guess he went in with a throat infection and made it worse by straining it. Nevertheless, he is always admirable for his professionalism. Can't wait for the episode to be shown on the 27th!
(btw pat/clare- I sent you a pm)
Anyways, anyone making plans to catch 5566's performance in Beijing on May 8? This concert was the one that was postponed last November.

Xiezhi updated his blog on the 11th and posted some pictures of the WQYL show with Renfu and Mengzhe which will be airing on the 19th. It's been so long since he appeared on WQYL for a CNY special- really happy to see them together for the show!
Thanks bonniec1 for the info. Ya. Think the last time he appear was 2 years ago with 56 right???
Poor Xiezhi. Hopefully by now he is fully recover already.
Ya. I admire that too!!!
I hope that i can go to Beijing to watch them!!! But due to alot of factors, i can't go!!! ARK!!! I want to see their performence!!!
Bonniec1, do you mind translating what he post in his blog??? Thanks.
You're welcome, pat/clare. Basically Xiezhi said that it was a long time since he was last on the set of WQYL and that it was sort of like he had come home since everybody and everything was so familiar. Since Renfu and Mengzhe were the hosts, he said he had a lot of fun and was sorry that the hour passed so quickly. They had a contest on the show with the guests challenging themselves and he was one of the judges. He also hinted at a challenge between himself and Renfu and said that he hopes everyone will catch and enjoy the show.
Sounds fun! Only a few days till it airs!
Thank you Bonniec1!!!
In less than a week the episode of WQYL will air!!! Can't wait to watch it already.
In exactly a week, its Xiezhi's birthday!!!
