It was the day after Christmas 33 years ago.My wife gave birth to our first child.We were full of gratitude to have Joseph John Mazzella Ⅱ，also called JJ，sleeping peacefully in the cradle（摇篮）next to our bed.

月半小夜曲陈乐基下载randparents.It had been a busy Christmas and hard on my wife who was still recovering from her operation.Now we were back in our tiny flat trying to get a few extra hours of sleep before starting the day.
Just then I heard JJ stirring in his cradle,I leaned over and picked him up before he started to cry and then carefully stole out into the living room so that my wife could keep sleeping,I picked up a bottle and sat in our rocking chair with JJ in my arms.I rocked quietly and fed him in the living room while he looked up at me with his loving eyes.I spoke softly to him but also felt a little nervous and scared as I watched him.How was I going to take care of him？I was a new father and had no idea what the future had in store for us.I rocked and rocked.But luckily,I had so many elders to help me.
After a few minutes I saw the sun slowly rising in the sky outside my window.The bright light was shining down from the heavens making the freshly fallen snow shine with beauty that touched my soul.As I watched it,my fear escaped and I felt such a sense of peace,harmony,love and joy.The Christmas spirit had entered my heart and I smiled.I knew then that whatever the future would hold,it would be smooth as long as I kept love i

In 1940，a thin,gray rabbit jumped out of a hole in the ground,knocked on a hairless man's head and asked,"What's Up,Doc？" to the sound of eating a large carrot.
Though the rabbit had appeared in previous short films for two years,this classical scene in the Warner Brothers cartoon short "A Wild Hare" introduced the version of the rabbit that would become the cultural figure of Bugs Bunny.In the decades since,Bugs has appeared in over 150 films.He has earned a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.And he was the first cartoon character to get his face on a postage stamp.TV Guide ranked him Number One on a list of the 50 greatest cartoon characters.
Bugs was unlike Disney's Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck.They came with their own set of physical characteristics but with little personality.Bugs was defined by his wiseacre（自

Bugs was unlike Disney's Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck.They came with their own set of physical characteristics but with little personality.Bugs was defined by his wiseacre（自
作聪明）attitude and funny tricks.He rocketed to fame because he was character driven,rather than practical joke driven.And while every director put his own imagination on Bugs Bunny,they all agreed on one thing that Bugs was never to be small minded.They wanted him to be a nice person,but not a person who is easy to persuade or influence.
For the directors and audiences alike,Bugs was more than just a cartoon character.Directors' attitude was that Bugs already existed and they were just writing about him.One of them would come home in the evening and say to his wife,"You won't believe what Bugs Bunny said today!" For so many years till now in 2021，Bugs Bunny doesn't change.He remains the lovable character that only plays tricks on those who deserve it most.

Major cities across the country,from Washington Los Angeles,are heating up.The downtown parts of Phoenix can be up to 15 degrees warmer at night than its suburb（郊区）.During the day,the street can reach over 160 degrees,hot enough to cook an egg.Unsurprisingly,walking across such a hot street to get to work,school,and do your daily work takes its toll on your health.
Local governments have turned to planting trees to help stop rising temperatures in city areas.These tree planting efforts are usually announced with much showing off but are not as simple as planting a few trees and calling it a day.There's typically this sort of blind faith that trees will provide all of wonderful social benefits.But the environmental benefits that trees provide depend entirely on context.Tree planting plans may not lead to the cooling joy we desire in city areas.
While tees,theoretically,are a "green" solution to unbearable summer city weather,in practice,many problems arise,namely keeping track of just how many trees have already found their roots and convincing land owners to keep planting trees along their personal property（私产）.In some cases,cities are already doing a good enough job that they are

running out of space,like in Washington,D.C.where they are currently at 38 percent canopy （树冠）coverage but are hoping to raise coverage up to 40 percent.But the biggest problem is that public area alone isn't enough for new trees in Washington D.C，as well as in cities like Phoenix and Los Angeles,and now,citizens will have to plant trees on personal property to help reach their canopy coverage goals.In many cases,that means landowners need to take care of those trees since they technically don't belong to the city itself. 无人之境歌词
At the end of the day,trees are a good starting point,but we still have so much to learn about how well they work to cool down our hottest cities.
