How Much Do You Know about Yao Ming
How Much Do You Know about Yao Ming?
Nowadays we teenagers especially boys love sports very much. Basketballs, football, Ping Pang and so on are all popular around the world. Although we Chinese don not have the best team in the world, we have one of the hardest team in the world. Our country's football team makes us disappointed; however, we have many good athletes in the world's basketball team. Furthermore, our badminton team or Ping pang team is the best in the world. Now the most popular game named NBA starts again. Fortunately, we saw our hero- Yao Ming again. Do you know him? I think that most of people in our country know him well. Below is some simple material of him that can tell you his impression of his teammates and friends.
Yao Ming (born September 12, 1980, in Shanghai, China) is a Chinese professional basketball player and is considered one of the best centers in the National Basketball Association (NBA) today. He is also among the tallest of players in the NBA standing at a height of 7'6". He is the only son of his father Yao Zhiyuan and Fang Fengdi. He played for the Shanghai Sharks of the Chinese Basketball Association (CBA) for five years, and now plays center for the Houston Rockets in the NBA. He was selected by Houston as the 1st overall pick of the 2002 NBA Draft and signed with them on October 21, 2002. In the further few years is Yao's highest career-year. Maybe he is a little older than his friends Yi Jianlian who is 23 years old now, however, for him he is full of enthusiasm on his career. He loves basketball as well as his friends especially the ones who stayed with him in the team- ago or now. Let me see what his friend say about him and his thought of others:
Nachbar who attended the Rockets at the same time with Yao and is not as successful as Yao said: "I told Yao is the real man." They are really friends without any unclean element.
Buckley said that "if Yao can match with the Warriors had 19 points, he was going to kiss Kenny's ass!" It has a deep impression in our mind. Now Yao is more and more popular in the world because of his talent in basketball.
Yao have said that "Boss is a good man, I can go to the rocket completely depending on him, I went to Houston to report on the first day that Francis took me to teach the entire Houston, I also desire to one day Francis be able to come to China ". Yao is always put his boss in his heart because of his great help.
In the end, after a year's rest Yao is back again. Rockets will be energetic again. Let's look forward to their work.

Creating Luminous Watercolor Landscapes $29.99 How to paint your world in watercolor and have fun doing it! The day Sterling Edwards watched an artist paint an entire sky with three deft brushstrokes was the day he committed to trading his tiny oil brushes and photorealistic style in favor of big, bold strokes of watercolor. In the years since, he's developed not only a wonderfully fresh, luminous painting style, but also an approach that takes the intimidation out of this beautiful but often-mystifying medium. In this book, he shares both. Initial chapters lay the foundation for successful paintings, from choosing the right brushes to achieving vibrant colors, interesting textures and strong compositions. Step-by-step demonstrations illustrate techniques for painting rocks, skies, trees, foliage, buildings, water and other landscape elements. An easy-to-follow, four-step painting process makes for easier starts and stronger finishes, complete with rich darks and sparkling highlights. Eight complete painting projects cover a range of breathtaking scenes and seasons. Whether you're dipping into the medium for the first time or you're a watercolor devotee on a quest for clearer color and more personal statements, this book will help you make the most of the time you spend with brush in hand. |

Watercolor Painting - Key of Controlling Water
Remember the story of Goldilocks and the three bears, in which the porridge was too hot, too cold, and just right? Switch the porridge with water, and the same is true for watercolor paper and brushes. It's too wet, too dry, or just right. When you know how to deal with each condition, your watercolor painting will be much easier.
When you paint, you'll start with a damp brush. Sometimes you'll dampen the paper with water and thereby make the brush damp. Next scoop up some paint in the hairs of the brush. Apply the paint to the paper that is dry or wet, depending on the look you want. When changing the color, first rinse the previous color in water, and then pick up the next color.
A big key to success is even wetness. And sometimes to achieve that, you have to let everything dry and start fresh on the next layer. Especially if you're painting a large area, it's difficult to have the same wetness everywhere. You may get puddles in one area, while another is beginning to dry out. When you see parts of the painting becoming dry, the best plan is to let everything dry and start again in another layer. Say this with me: "When in doubt, dry it out."
Watercolor has a magic time. It's just as the shine is about to leave the paper, when the paper is damp with no puddles or dry spots. This is the perfect time for all the techniques or using a chisel-ended brush to scrape paint away.
