MICHEL PETRUCCIANI
Michel Petrucciani was born to Italian parents in Montpellier, France. His family was musical, and as a child he played the drums in a band with his father, Tony, a guitarist, and his brother Louis, a bassist.
Michel was born with osteogenesis imperfecta, also known as "glass bones," a disease that stunted his growth (he was only three feet tall and weighed barely 50 pounds) and weakened his bones.
At the age of four he discovered the piano. One evening, seeing Duke Ellington for the first time on television, he pointed at the screen and said, "I want to play that." At Christmas that year his parents gave him a small toy piano. At once Michel seized a hammer and smashed the toy to pieces. "I want a real one," he said. His father bought him an old piano that was falling apart, and made an extension so that Michel's feet could reach the pedals. Michel studied classical music for eight years, then turned his attention to jazz because he loved to improvise and wanted to write his own music. Later on, when he was thirty, Michel paid tribute to the man who first inspired him to want to play the piano in a solo album called Promenade With Duke.Much later, in 1992 he played a duo with his father on a tour called "Like Father, Like Son" to show his love and appreciation for the man who had helped him so much for all of his life.
When Michel was thirteen, he gave his first concert as a professional at the Cliousclat Festival. He had to be carried onto the stage, and used a special attachment to work the sustaining pedal of the piano.This disadvantage didn't affect his hands, however, and, according to reports, he played with amazing vigor and enthusiasm. Also performing at the festival was the American trumpeter Clark Terry, who needed a pianist that day. When Michel offered him his services, Clark thought it was a joke. "'Let's play the Blues,' he said. The minute Michel played, Clark embraced him, and that was where it all started.
A few months after the following concert tour with Terry, a decisive encounter took place in the South of France. Chuck Israels, a bass player who had played with Bill Evans, and Petrucciani's idol, appreciated his lyrical and energetic style so much that he decided to help him along, first by introducing Michel to the drummer Kenny Clarke. Kenny took to him straight away, and things started to look up for the young pianist. Shortly after, in 1980, Petrucciani was invited to a recording studio, where he found himself in the company of the drummer Aldo Romano, trombonist Mike Zwerin and his brother Louis on bass. Michel had first met Aldo Romano at a village fair when he was sixteen, and often referred to him as "my guardian angel." Together they recorded an hour of music. Entitled Flash, the resulting album was a hit. On the heels of this success, Michel Petrucciani was able to form a permanent trio along with Romano and the bass player Jean-François Jenny-Clark. http://www.jazzprofessional.com/images/Michel%20Petrucciani_2.jpg
That year, performing for the first time at the Paris Jazz Festival, he was a sensation at the Theatre de la Ville. The following year, Michel decided, as a challenge, to set off for America. He landed in New York where a friend gave him the address of a musician living on the West Coast. When he arrived at Charles Lloyd's Californian retreat two weeks later, he wasn't aware that it was Charles who had first discovered the young pianist Keith Jarrett back in the 1960s. Once he heard that Michel was also a jazz pianist, Lloyd suggested that he should play something on his Steinway. After hearing a few bars Charles went and fetched his saxophone. For two days they played together non-stop. This shared adventure lasted five years and resulted in three albums. Charles Lloyd really opened every door for Michel—it could not have been a better start for his American career. Moving to California in 1982, he joined Charles Lloyd's new quartet. A solo performance by Michel at Carnegie Hall as part of the Kool Jazz Festival resulted in widespread critical acclaim.
Within a few years, Michel had worked with some of the best jazzmen and rhythm sections in the world. Among them were drummers Al Foster, Jack DeJohnette; bass players Dave Holland, Gary Peacock, Eddie Gomez, Stanley Clarke, Cecil McBee; guitaristsJim Hall, John Abercrombie, John Scofield; saxophonists Lee Konitz, Warne Marsh, Joe Lovano, Joe Henderson, Wayne Shorter, David Sanborn and Gerry Mulligan, not to mention the legendary trumpeter Dizzy Gillespie.
In 1986, at age 21, he became the first French musician to sign with the prestigious Blue Note Label, where he recorded six albums. Michel continued to travel the world, with a youthful energy, forever changing his music groups and environment.
He played and recorded with Lee Konitz. Out of the combination of Konitz's alto sax and Michel's piano came the album Toot Sweet, a duo still considered by European critics to be one of the high–spots of jazz in the 1980s.
Between 1986 and 1994, he made seven albums for Blue Note Records, including "Power of Three" (with Wayne Shorter and Jim Hall), and an acclaimed album of original songs, "Michel Plays Petrucciani" (Blue Note).
In 1994 Michel was made a knight of the Legion of Honor in Paris.
Michel toured Germany, Italy and France in 1997, playing at all the festivals. A sextet tour followed, featuring Anthony Jackson, Steve Gadd, Bob Brookmeyer with Flavio Boltro on trumpet and Stefano di Battista on alto and soprano saxophones. This group was one of Michel's most rewarding efforts, performing into the following year and recording Both Worlds for Dreyfus Records, released in 1998. The CD is entirely comprised of Petrucciani compositions, beautifully arranged by Bob Brookmeyer.
On January 6th, 1999, Michel Petrucciani passed away in Manhattan at the age of 36, from a pulmonary infection. At the time of his death Dreyfus Records were readying a release documenting Michel's 1997 solo tour of Europe. Recorded live in Frankfurt, Germany on February 27, the program featured a number of original compositions including the extended "Trilogy In Blois (Morning Sun, Noon Sun and Night Sun In Blois)" and the lyrical "Chloé Meets Gershwin". Michel also paid homage on Solo Live to a couple of his heroes with an expansive rendition of Duke Ellington's trademark "Caravan" and a medley of his own "She Did It Again" and Billy Strayhorn's "Take The A Train".
Michel Petrucciani was a national hero in France, and his records were best sellers in Europe. French President Jacques Chirac was among the many who paid tribute to him, praising his ability to "renew jazz, giving himself up to his art with passion, courage and musical genius." He called him an "example for everyone."

伊拉克精神感动整个亚洲！
http://sports.tom.com/uimg/2007/6/14/yaolei/1181784593753_214466.jpg伊拉克队在亚洲杯决赛中1比0力克大热门沙特，成为第7个捧起亚洲冠军奖杯的国家。伊拉克人感动了亚洲，震惊了世界。
烽火连四年，国破草木深。在伊拉克队中，每一位队员都在战火中遭受过失去亲人的苦痛。就在亚洲杯期间，就有三个队员失去亲人：门将萨布里的小舅子在亚洲杯开赛前被杀，决赛的当场，最佳球员阿克拉姆也失去了亲人，而11号、队内惟一一个库尔德人哈瓦尔，则是在战越南的比赛前，接到了伊拉克总理亲自打来的电话，他继母刚刚遇害。
甚至是告捷之时，死亡的阴影依然笼罩在伊拉克队头上：他们战胜越南进军半决赛的当晚，巴格达有3人不幸中庆祝流弹死亡；点球大战淘汰韩国，历史上首次挺进决赛后，两个自杀炸弹恐怖分子又在欢庆的人群中引爆炸药，造成近60人死亡的惨剧；伊拉克政府不得不在本场比赛前发布禁令，要求大家在有警方检查出入口的指定场点庆祝；而就在本文截稿时，又传来伊拉克警方截获了又一个自杀袭击者、让庆祝人群幸免于难的消息……
伊拉克英雄尤尼斯赛后沉痛地说：“悲剧是，我们甚至不可能全队回国给球迷送上奖杯。我渴望我们能够回去，但你就是不知道谁会杀害你。”利物浦名帅香克利曾说，足球“比生死更大”。但在伊拉克足球人的苦痛面前，一切对比都是苍白的：在萨达姆的儿子乌代掌管足球时，他们一旦输球，就要坐水牢，或者踢水泥足球供乌代一乐；而美国控制全境之后，他们每一次训练，都是在拿自己的生命冒险。
他们没有自己的主场，主场在邻国约旦；主教练维埃拉没有自己的办公室，他的办公室是安曼一家酒店的大堂；甚至是23名球员，都是在亚洲杯开赛前一天，才在曼谷凑齐……
体育，从来不是单纯的物质条件的比较。否则，你就难以解释为什么我们会一次又一次地为以弱胜强而感动得落泪。支撑伊拉克队员一路走到底的，是因为他们渴望用足球场上的胜利团结积弱不振的祖国，是因为他们对足球单纯的热爱和痴狂，是因为人性的美丽……
半岛电视台用突发新闻播出伊拉克夺冠的消息，BBC和CNN此刻的全球新闻头条也是伊拉克人在亚洲杯的胜利和巴格达的庆祝人群。一切的一切，都在提醒我们：记住今晚，记住雅加达，记住伊拉克人为足球奉献的一切。
像斯巴达人一样战斗！
愿你做暴风雨中的松柏
不愿你做温室中的弱苗
————————《雷锋日记》
没有正常运转的足协，没有平整的球场，没有完整的联赛，没有来自国内的球员。一群流浪海外的伊拉克人，他们像一群真正的战士，赢得荣誉。是什么让他们如此疯狂的去战斗？是什么让他们在胜利之后如此激动？也许是为了战火蹂躏下的伊拉克，他们的祖国。当祖国战火连绵，烽烟四起，生命如草芥般下贱的时候，伊拉克人向亚洲展示了他们顽强的斗志，展示了一个民族不屈的信念，一个在战争中被踩在脚下的国家，在球场上呐喊着：我们不是弱者！就像死战温泉关的斯巴达勇士一样呐喊：我们的力量弱小，我们的意志强大，我们是真正的战士，我们会战斗到最后一刻，然后光荣的死去，或者成为王者，迎接世界的欢呼！
光荣的死去，多么美好的愿望啊。
曾经希望我们自己的球队，能够光荣的死去。真正的战士应该挺起胸膛迎接敌人的刀剑，而不是膝盖着地，像奴隶一样任人宰杀。他们的意志哪里去了？他们的精神哪里去了？他们的荣誉感哪里去了？他们代表我们的祖国，他们能够代表我们的祖国么？民族的血性在哪里？抗争的精神在哪里？不屈的意志在哪里？
一支在精神上被阉割的球队。
他们拥有一切有利的物质条件，却没有战斗的勇气。可笑的“疯狗精神”。难道那个愚蠢又傲慢的男人不知道吗？疯狂不是勇敢，勇敢是面对无法战胜的敌人，仍然可以昂起头颅，高举战刀，指向前方。而疯狂只是双眼充血口水四溅的撕咬与抓挠，当体力耗尽的时候，只能喘息着瘫在地上，等待死亡的降临。
疯狂不是勇敢，懦弱不是谨慎，智慧变成了愚蠢。失败必然来临。
其实我们不害怕失败，我们害怕的是软弱的失败。这样的失败里我们看不到希望和未来。我们只能看到困惑，为什么他们有完善的物质支持，却总是无法像男人一样去战斗？难道只有在民族危亡的时刻，我们才能爆发出血性与尊严么？！

送给青蛙了，呵呵
初识鸣人，那个闹腾的小鬼，那个对老师用色诱术的恶劣小鬼
那个听说有人请拉面就笑逐颜开的小鬼，那个叫嚣着要超越众火影的小鬼
那个独坐秋千远远看着别人欢笑的小鬼，那个踢飞水木保护伊老师的小鬼
那个～～带着护额听到自己毕业嘴角抽动似笑似哭扑向伊鲁卡的小鬼
这个在初战中被吓到脚软的小鬼，我明明应该鄙视的却反其道迷上了他
震撼于他在佐助那句[胆小鬼]后用苦无刺入手背上的伤口起誓
ps:不要说他是主角所以会这样做，请你们想想你所喜欢的人难道不是因为作者本身给他们设定的角色而那样做那样说吗？请换位思考一下。
他会冷静他不会再逃跑。
当看到这个背影看到这个场景时，我坦实的讲我真的被震撼到了
这个画面一直冲击着我的视觉，我不知道别人怎么看但我真的很被触动
这个小鬼他一直都在努力，努力的证明自己的存在
努力的向别人证明自己的存在也努力的想让别人认同自己的存在
他说：任务继续
当看到他这样说的时候，我真的是感觉他很帅很帅。
由内而外，这不是我因为自己是鸣迷才这样说而是我真的这么认为。
换而言之，也就是因为会这么认为这么想，我才会成为鸣迷。
我相信相由心生。
当我知道那个小鸣冲上去是为了那个护额时，我是很惊讶的
当那个小鬼说：喂，那边那个没眉毛的，赶快在你的手册上记下迟早会成为木叶忍者火影的男人。
我没来由的就被感动了就这样相信了
