The Conviction of Richard Nixon pdf mobi txt 2024 电子版 下载

The Watergate scandal began with a break-in at the office of the Democratic National Committee at the Watergate Hotel on June 17, 1971, and ended when President Gerald Ford granted Richard M. Nixon a pardon on September 8, 1974, one month after Nixon resigned from office in disgrace. Effectively removed from the reach of prosecutors, Nixon returned to California, uncontrite and unconvicted, convinced that time would exonerate him of any wrongdoing and certain that history would remember his great accomplishments—the opening of China and the winding down of the Vietnam War—and forget his “mistake,” the “pipsqueak thing” called Watergate.

In 1977, three years after his resignation, Nixon agreed to a series of interviews with television personality David Frost. Conducted over twelve days, they resulted in twenty-eight hours of taped material, which were aired on prime-time television and watched by more than 50 million people worldwide. Nixon, a skilled lawyer by training, was paid $1 million for the interviews, confident that this exposure would launch him back into public life. Instead, they sealed his fate as a political pariah.

James Reston, Jr., was David Frost’s Watergate advisor for the interiews, and The Conviction of Richard Nixon is his intimate, behind-the-scenes account of his involvement. Originally written in 1977 and published now for the first time, this book helped inspire Peter Morgan’s hit play Frost/Nixon. Reston doggedly researched the voluminous Watergate record and worked closely with Frost to develop the interrogation strategy. Even at the time, Reston recognized the historical importance of the Frost/Nixon interviews; they would result either in Nixon’s de facto conviction and vindication for the American people, or in his exoneration and public rehabilitation in the hands of a lightweight. Focused, driven, and committed to exposing the truth, Reston worked tirelessly to arm Frost with the information he needed to force Nixon to admit his culpability.

In The Conviction of Richard Nixon , Reston provides a fascinating, fly-on-the-wall account of his involvement in the Nixon interviews as David Frost’s Watergate adviser. Written in 1977 immediately following these celebrated television interviews and published now for the first time, The Conviction of Richard Nixon explains how a British journalist of waning consequence drove the famously wily and formidable Richard Nixon to say, in an apparent personal epiphany, “I have impeached myself.”

  学到很多，比如庭院照明，车库，格栅门的设计，如何挑选植物。提到植物的很多优点，比如提供荫蔽，保护隐私，果树，排水，但是也有缺点，比如病虫害，可能损害建筑物，影响草本植物生长，夏天多蚊虫，后期养护成本。书中针对一些细节专门配图，可以说非常用心，值得推荐！

• 关于天气预报的超级冷知识，您知道几个？

  作者：开心爸爸的日记 发布时间：2020-10-20 20:53:15

  导语

  

  在我们生活中，天气预报可以说是必需品之一了。

  通过天气预报，我们可以知道未来的天气是什么样，从而可以针对性的做出一些提前的安排。比如现在开心爸爸一家人要出门玩的话，一定要看看天气预报。

  要是刮大风下雨或者下雪的话，这次出行计划大概率会取消；要是天气太冷的话，就需要多准备几件衣服以及一些热水；要是天气太热的话，就需要少穿点衣服多带点水，保持体内的水分等等。

  可以说，天气预报给我们的生活带来了很大的便利。

  但不得不说的一点就是，天气预报还真的是预报，出错的概率很高。明明预报的是大雨倾盆，但到时候依旧是艳阳高照；明明说的是天气晴朗万里无云，但却被突如其来的大雨困住了……

  

  这到底是什么原因呢？

  天气预报的冷知识

  其实，这个问题，在这本《1小时读懂天气》的书中，就能得到很好的解答。

  可能大家都不会知道，我们看似平常的天气预报，其实涉及到了一个很高大上的学科一一气象学。

  关于气象的研究，可以追溯到史前人类时代了，他们通过对气候温度的总结，最终得出了一些经验，并且通过各种方式记录了下来，这其实就是最初的天气预报。

  时间推进到现在，天气预报已经是一个综合性的学科了。是一门囊括了气候观察，数理统计，大数据推测等多种知识的学科。

  

  而我们现在所看到的天气预报，都是这样一个个数值组成的。

  比如气温。

  气温是通过测量背阴处的温度，而非阳光直射的地方，所以每次看天气预报的气温时我们都会感到和实际温度有点不一致。其实原因也很简单，如果温度计放在阳光下，很融汇因为发热而出现错误的读数。目前为止，最高气温的世界纪录来自于伊朗的卢特沙漠，高达70.3摄氏度。

  比如预报。

  事实上，现在天气预报的关键在于超级计算机了，他们把来自世界各地的数据输入到事先做好的程序中，经过一系列的模拟运算，最终得到世界各地的天气情况换而言之，我们现在所得到的天气预报，本质上是数据模拟出来的结果。

  

  但再先进的计算机，也很难将大气层和天气系统完全模拟出来，还是会有一些本质上的误差的，而且这种误差会随着天气预报的久远而不断增加。

  所以，我们要想得到相对而言比较准确的预报，3小时内，或者更短时间内的天气预报是个不错的选择。

  最后

  

  其实人类科技发展史，也是一部天气预报精准程度不断增加的历史，我们有理由相信，在不远的将来，天气预报不仅仅是大家出行的一个参考，更多的是一个权威的指导。

  另外，如果您也对天气感兴趣，不妨看看这本《1小时读懂天气》，小开本，知识点精炼无比，一会就能涨很多知识。
