By Andrea Dudik, Konrad Krasuski and Leon Mangasarian - Mar 3, 2014
Alzbeta Ehrnhofer was a 13-year-old Slovak schoolgirl when the Soviet Army
poured into Czechoslovakia to “restore order” in 1968.
The unfolding crisis in Crimea took her back to the day almost 46 years ago
when tanks rumbled past her house in the southern Slovak town of Filakovo as
neighbors hid from the Russian-led invaders.

Georgia has strict laws for drivers who unlawfully pass a school bus.
According to the Governor’s Office of Highway Safety, fines can range up to
$1,000, accompanied by up to a year in jail. A conviction carries six
points on a driver’s license, while penalties for drivers under the age of
21 result in an automatic license suspension for six months and subsequent
offenses bring a 12-month suspension.

Specifically, the bill would require all drivers in the left lane, whether t

le. That means Georgians would actually need to check their mirrors and “sh

本人美国一般大学化学博士，做过几年薄厚。目前在工业界工作已经两年。打算转行CS
。去年下半年到现在网上上过python，java，matlab 的课。最近考了oracle java
programmer I的 certificate。然后申请了Georgian tech的2017年fall的OMS CS，去
年被拒了，今年估计programming背景强点终于录取了。之前看了点刷题，有CC，还有
leetcode，做的不多。因为想尽快找到工作转行先，需要做project。
现在freecodecamp上学web full stack的开发，主要是javascript,能学到点相关的像
ajax,jquery, bootstrap, 反正就是作网页需要的。
试着透过一些简历，主要java programmer，但是毫无消息。
我想请教一下，如何能尽快找到CS相关的工作呢，因为年龄不小了，现在的工作和以后
CS相关性不大,想要尽快入行。而且入行后对于下半年读书也有帮助，毕竟能得到的信
息也多。ps;有身份。

发帖数: 210 | 32 购买什么类的家具要看个人的品位，但同时也要尽量配合房子本身的特点。
一般来讲，现代派的家具最适合用于comtemporary style
的房子。绝大多数comtemporary style 的房子不论外部设计还是内部空间的设置都比较
现代，所以更适合于现代派的家具，线条颜色简单明快的家具和窗帘会使房间增色。如果
把内部装饰得古色古香就未必适合了。
比较传统的建筑，例如colonial，georgian, tudor, 更适用传统的室内装潢，用红木家
具，布面沙发，真丝窗帘就恰到好处。
还有不少房子结余两者之间，像ranch, cape 等，室内装潢也应相应调整。
ikea 的家具简易明快，更适用于空间较小的apartment or condo. 这是为什么是学生宿
舍的首选。
如果你不很确定由什么样的家具，最好请专业的interior designer来根据你的房子帮助
你选择，如果你正在装修房子，designer 就更有帮助了。好的室内装潢，应该是厨房，
墙壁，空间，地毯，家居都是协调一体的，这样不仅你的房子有增值作用，而且住起来也
更舒服。 |

同样厨房，餐厅，客厅，family room 和4间卧室，如果是Ranch style，房子的地基（

如果4间卧室放在2楼，地基的面积要小一半，同样，屋顶，Attic的面积也减小一半。
那建筑成本就小得多。
