So, how can candidates assess climate? Here's a short checklist: Are you
treated courteously and professionally? Do people attend your public
sessions? Do they ask you thoughtful questions rather than play "gotcha"
with you? Do they take these opportunities to stage their own preexisting
conflicts? When you go to meals with the committee or others (they do take
you to meals, don't they?), are they courteous to each other? Better yet,

我们印度人不是什么都喜欢和中国进行对比吗?那好,让我们来看看中国人是怎么从一个叫做利比亚的地狱中撤出他的国民的。中国到利比亚的距离比印度远了一倍,但中国外交部2/28宣布,中国已经将29,000人撤出了利比亚。哇,这比印度在利比亚的全部侨民还多了11,000! 不可能,一定又是中国人在玩弄数字了. 但显然这是一个事实。
中国人是怎么做到的?有道是“有志者事竟成”。没有必要上电视演说,没有必要玩弄文字游戏,没有必要发表内阁声明,去做就是了。作为撤侨的第一步,中国人把她的国民送到安全的周边国家,这样他们就不再有危险,正在展开的是第二步,把他们从这些邻近国家带回到中国。聪明吗?显然!但我们印度人怎么就想不出这样的好主意呢?
邻近国家有希腊,马耳他,突尼斯, 都是印度的友好国家,我们甚至在马耳他还有一个领事馆。到昨天下午为止,已经有一万多名中国人由中国驻希腊大使馆租用的三艘渡轮,从利比亚的班加西撤到了希腊的克里特岛。中国人知道邻近国家中的希腊,塞浦路斯,土耳其都是老牌的海洋国家,会有剩余的海运能力。在当地租船显然更经济。不过中国人比较小气,哪像我们印度人根本不在意花钱,听说过希腊船王奥纳西斯吗... 阅读全帖

从美国童军就可以看出教育的缺陷了,这种缺陷一直延续到高等教育。

To do my duty to God and my country
and to obey the Scout Law;
To help other people at all times;
To keep myself physically strong,
mentally awake, and morally straight.
A Scout is:
Trustworthy, Loyal, Helpful,
Friendly, Courteous, Kind,
Obedient, Cheerful, Thrifty,
Brave, Clean, Reverent

The key difference is that unpolite is now archaic/incorrect and so should

). When both were still in use, it appears they were largely synonymous. For
example, Webster's 1828 dictionary defines them as follows:
UNPOLI'TE, a.
Not refined in manners; not elegant.
Not civil; not courteous; rude. [See Impolite.]

Warren (D-Mass.) offered words of encouragement to fellow Sen. Kamala Harris
(D-Calif.) Wednesday after she was scolded during a Senate Intelligence
Committee hearing.
“Silencing Kamala Harris for not being ‘courteous’ enough is just
unbelieveable,” Warren tweeted. "Keep fighting, Kamala! #

Donald Trump takes the lowest of low roads on Matt Lauer
Analysis by Chris Cillizza, CNN Editor-at-large
Washington (CNN)Most past presidents probably wouldn't say anything publicly
about the bombshell firing Wednesday morning of NBC's Matt Lauer for "
inappropriate sexual behavior." And, if they did say something, it would be
along the lines of "Even the highest profile among us are not and should not
be immune from being punished for these sorts of unacceptable b... 阅读全帖

来自主题: Automobile版 - CHP aids driver of runaway Prius (转载)
The driver of the Prius is pretty dumb.
First, he tried to speed up his car when another car drove "slowly" in front
of him. Shouldn't he think GREEN and be more courteous to others while
driving?
Second, he did not attempt to switch to neutral once the car was out of
control. That should be the first "rescue" maneuver tried.
Third, he used a cell phone while driving an out-of-control car, which is
against the law in California. He should have prayed GOD first!
Fourth, he did not attempt

说到底,在路上开车,怎么样最安全?你不能控制别人,你自己能做到的,就是尽量不
让自己的开车行为影响到别人。换句话说,要是你开车能做到在旁边的车看来你根本不
在路上一样,那你就是一个好司机。
用你的方式,你还没确定能不能换道呢,就先打灯,那你旁边的司机肯定会有所警觉,
可能还会踩点刹车让你,这样你就影响到他了。然后要是打完灯后发现不能换(有可能
别人不让你),那还会让后面的车感到迷惑。
开车的时候,要懂得掌握主动。你主动找到机会,然后完成动作,告诉别人只是一个
courtesy。不要被动地请求别人来让你。
在路上,aggresiveness和courtesy是不矛盾的,我最欣赏的就是aggresive &
courteous的司机。

来自主题: Automobile版 - 弱问关于allstate
今天电话后收到的邮件
'I am pleased to send you a personalized Auto Insurance Quote from the Good
Hands People®. At Allstate we promise prompt and courteous service and
offer great protection at a good price. '
昨天quote了很多公司,最后还是决定继续留在progressive。
因为还是新手,才只有半年车龄,在progressive买的最低的保险(半保),还要300美元
今天接到allstate的电话,问了我现在的保费,说可以给我255美元。但是我不知道这
个保险公司好不好?
还有,the Good Hands People®. At Allstate 是不是Allstate啊?
因为昨晚接到一个保险公司,说是AAA的,后来给的文件,上面写的竟然是Infinity,
还说是AAA的子公司。虽然保费很便宜,但是实在不敢找小公司。
所以想上来问问大家的意见。对于保险公司,实在不太在行
