abbreviation for the Latin phrase id est. Either can be used to clarify a
preceding statement, the first by example, the second by restating the idea

"Lies, damned lies, and statistics" is a phrase describing the persuasive
power of numbers, particularly the use of statistics to bolster weak
arguments, and the tendency of people to disparage statistics that do not
support their positions.
The term was popularized in the United States by Mark Twain (among others),
who attributed it to the 19th Century British Prime Minister Benjamin
Disraeli (1804-1881): "There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and
statistics." However, the phrase is

For most people, I presume, the phrase "Hawaiian music" would

Hawaiians of a musical vocabulary and instruments that were
introduced to the islands by Europeans and Americans after 1778.

God is Love: How do we Define Love?
"God is Love", but how do we define it? The American Heritage Dictionary
defines love as "an intense affection for another person based on familial or
personal ties". Often this "intense affection" stems from a sexual attraction
for that other person. We love other people, or we say we love other people,
when we are attracted to them and when they make us feel good. Notice that a

reference to a basket of currencies", phrasing which could signal that it is
preparing to end the yuan's de facto dollar peg.
Although the wording is not new — it has been used since 2005 — it had
disappeared from the previous quarterly monetary policy report by the People
's Bank of China, but reappeared in the latest version.
It is "an important language change", Morgan Stanley economist Qing Wang
said in a note to clients.

2) 美国人真心欣赏、称赞自己的妻子,他们不重对方的容貌、身材、年龄。
Have you ever heard of the phrase "trophy wife"?
中国很多男人本身天性喜欢年轻漂亮的女子
Gosh, what man, regardless of race or nationality, would not like young and
beautiful women?? And vice versa. Physical attraction is just part of

Key phrase:
"新型防空導彈在大氣層內成功擊毀了模擬的彈道導彈。"
This is similar to using Patriot missiles to shot down SRBMs like Scuds. It
is very different from the mid-flight ABM system required to defend against
ICBMs and IRBMs.

In the United States, the phrase is used in Washington, D.C. as part of the
campaign for a vote in Congress. In November 2000, the D.C. Department of
Motor Vehicles began issuing license plates bearing the slogan "Taxation
without representation".[13] In a show of support for the city, President
Bill Clinton used the "Taxation Without Representation" plates on the
presidential limousine; however, President George W. Bush had the tags
replaced to those without the motto shortly upon taking office
