,所谓藤校,不是永远都牛,学生靠上藤校得到进入社会的敲门金砖,但是藤校也要靠
学生维系他们在社会的影响力。那么什么样的学生藤校最喜欢,有社会影响力的学生。
奥巴马也好,扎克伯格也好,都是在不同的领域发挥了巨大影响力的人。藤校并不在乎
出了多少医生,多少年收入上了贫困线的工程师,因为他们对藤校的名声没啥帮助。

v******f 发帖数: 4509 | 9 这么个狂风大作的大选夜里,可怜的kerwin同学被困在vegas的豪华酒店里无网可上(
因老板不愿付上网费),所以这次还是我来吆喝。
定在周六(11/8)上午9:30在去 Echo Mountain 的trailhead 集合,10:00准时出发。
这次的路线是经过Echo Mountain 上 Inspiration Point,和置顶之一的爬山路线相同
。但是我们要晚些集合,并计划7个小时走完。全程来回共10.4mi,爬升2740ft,
仍然是strenuous级别的难度,和前两周走的路线难度属于一个量级。但是这条道的好
处是,嫌难度太高的人可以把途中的 Echo Mountain 作为目标,那里有个旅馆的废墟
是很好的休息场所,这样距离和爬升都减少一半(5mi/1400ft),体力消耗则小于一半
。当然还是希望去的人都能走完,Inspiration Point上面的风景要好得多。

g**********y 发帖数: 14569 | 34 从归真堂的讨论,不由让我想起上周看的片子:Big Miracle
这是一部根据真实故事改编的电影,讲述美国政府因为一个记者的报道,被动地卷入一
场营救被困阿拉斯加的三只灰鲸的故事。片子在IMDB的评价不高,只有5.7分,但是却
深深打动我。
三只鲸鱼因为气候剧变,没能在水面冰封前迁徙南下,因为它们需要跃出水面呼吸空气
,所以几乎注定要困死阿拉斯加。它们最后的生存空间就是那块还未冰封的水面。这时
一个记者报道了这件事,引起绿色和平组织关注。进而引发高收视率。救助鲸鱼,演成
成了一出政治戏。
Drew Barrymore(扮绿色和平组织成员)向阿拉斯加州长求助,要求出动国民卫队为鲸
鱼破冰。州长干脆地拒绝了她:为什么?为了几条鲸鱼,我们就应该冒损失军人生命的
风险?如果出事,他们的家人该怎样来接受这个事实?
这时Drew Barrymore 有一场动人的对白,大意是:它们是三只无助的鲸鱼,频临死境
。它们不会创造什么价值,它们也不会投票,它们没有人可以依靠。它们就是在残酷的
大自然面前挣扎的三个生命,我们今天去帮它们,是希望将来有一天,面临同样的处境

latest film in the trilogy that also includes Before Sunrise and Before
Sunset, you’ll see that the movie is dedicated to someone whose name even
the most die-hard fans have never heard before: Amy Lehrhaupt. Almost 25

A good songwriter should be able to write a song on order. This can be done

宗教对犯罪率的影响
更加信仰基督的地方有更多的社会弊病和犯罪。这是格雷戈里。保罗在学术杂志《宗教
与社会》上发表的初步结论,这个杂志是内布拉斯加州一所教会学校的学报。
http://moses.creighton.edu/JRS/2005/2005-11.html
研究表明,基督教统治的美国南部和中西部地区,社会弊端和犯罪更严重,谋杀,性病
,死亡率更高。这项研究还表明,美国的犯罪率和基督徒比例,比其他发达世界国家都
高得多。
无法回避的现实是,基督教的教条更合适一个病态的社会。宗教狂热分子和极端主义比
毒品危害更大。
理性的人认识到基督教神话的荒谬可怜,而基督徒,尤其是福音派,或原教旨主义者,
不过是一些伪君子,用宗教作为武器来贬低他人。
格雷戈里。保罗的研究首次量化了基督教教义产生的社会效果。不只是基督教,一切狂
热的邪教都可能会有类似的邪恶效果。
当然,天主教会花了几百年压迫陷入贫困和苦难的老百姓。穆斯林有同样的呼吁
:暴力,复仇,排斥和压迫。
理智的人会奇怪宗教神话的诞生。
在美国,宗教=残酷。
