国防部的此次调查是为废除“不问不说”政策所作准备工作的一部分。已实行17年
的“不问不说”政策是基于国会通过的有关法案,该政策禁止公开性倾向的同性恋者在
美军中服役,军方不得询问军人的性倾向,军人也不得在部队中公开自己是同性恋者。
自从“不问不说”政策实行以来,已有数以万计的男、女军人因违反规定而遭到军队开

总统奥巴马和国防部都支持废除“不问不说”政策,国会众议院也已经通过废除这

“选美皇后”震撼美国政坛—评佩林昨晚演讲
作者:曹长青
距离11月4日投票只有两个月,美国总统大选进入决战阶段。奥巴马选了老牌议员拜登
当副手,以补外交经验不足。麦凯恩更出人意料,选了阿拉斯加的女州长佩林做搭档,
要出奇制胜。在昨晚共和党提名大会上,这位大西北小乡下冒出的“黑马”女州长果然
不负众望,一揽人心。她在全国观众面前的“处女秀”不仅赢得了保守派评论员一面倒
的赞美,连自由派们都不得不承认,她的确“给了一个强有力的演讲,是在文化和意识
形态领域挑战奥巴马”(Chris Matthews)。从昨晚到今晨,无论电视、网络还是报纸
,佩林可谓横扫了美国媒体,近乎是迎头痛击了过去一个星期以来对她的枪林弹雨般密
集的攻击。《纽约时报》《华盛顿邮报》都在大标题上用了“电击”( electrify)这
个词形容佩林的讲话。有人甚至说:“保守派找到自己的奥巴马”(Pat Buchanan)。

虽然没有透露这些邪教的名字,但其中一个问题- “他们让你做了什么蠢事?”—
—让我们更加深入了解了邪教的生活方式。
“我们经常剃光头”,来自艾丽斯斯普林斯的艾丽莎·布坎南(Alecia Buchanan

来自珀斯的本·桑顿(Ben Shenton)认为,“染金发”和“统一着装”还不是问

以下为文章概要:
当访客参观硅谷,他们首先注意到的往往是食物,比如说谷歌、Facebook以及其他科技
公司为员工开设的自助餐厅,里面供应着各种免费的美食和点心。
不过,这样的免费食物可能不会永远免费下去。对于如何看待这些令人垂涎欲滴的免费

税法中关于额外福利的条款相当复杂,但总而言之他们将雇主经常性向员工提供的餐食
算作应税福利。这一点类似于公车私用。这一根据也导致一些税务专家提出这样的疑问
