澳大利亚前首相的文章,有些见地。
http://www.wsj.com/articles/an-ally-sizes-up-donald-trump-1531521949
Eighteen months into Donald Trump’s term, the world is having trouble
coming to grips with the most unconventional American president ever. Still,
he is neither a bad dream from which the U.S. will soon wake up, nor a fool
to be ridiculed.
For someone his critics say is a compulsive liar, Mr. Trump has been
remarkably true to his word. Especially compared with his predecessor, he
doesn’t moralize. It’s classic ... 阅读全帖

In China, Car Brands Evoke an Unexpected Set of Stereotypes
By ANDREW JACOBS and ADAM CENTURY
BEIJING — Cars in the United States tend to come fully equipped with
stereotypes. Ford Crown Victoria: law enforcement professional. Toyota Prius
In China, where the market for imported passenger cars dates back only about
three decades, an entirely alternate set of stereotypes is taking root —
and the stakes have never been higher for foreign carmakers.

, only Columbia and the University of Pennsylvania had a greater proportion
of Jews.
Harvard’s president, A. Lawrence Lowell, warned that the “Jewish invasion

In the wake of the CEO ousters at HP, Yahoo and Nokia and the CEO implosions
at Cisco, SAP, RIM and Dell, it’s surprising people are still picking on S

1995年勇士终于拿下萎琐大赛之后
(好像也是亚特兰大城市的第一个职业冠军 现在也是唯一一个?)
"德高望重"的珍芳达(阿龟 没意见吧?) 的老公按捺不住激动

其中两次是击败勇士赢得
显然更符合"Team of the Decade"的头衔
