(rich gets richer, poor gets poorer) continues, so he is trying to do
something about it, not for himself but for his grandson, great grandson.
Unfortunately, the end of american empire will come sooner or later,
this determined by 1) human nature and 2) the way united states is set up.

This Housing Upturn Looks Like the Real Thing
Ever since the recovery began in 2009, a weak housing market has held back
the U.S. economy. The first rebound in home prices was lackluster and after
only a year was followed by another dip. But the recent upturn in home
prices looks like the real thing. One clear sign of a turning point: In
March, homeownership hit a 17-year low, while the 12-month gain in home
prices was the biggest i... 阅读全帖 |

1、飞机舱门都有机上可以上网的明显标志；
2、广播中会提示乘客使用WIFI。

我问他会用GOGO吗，他说only if I have to。这厮好像是印度人，而且是硅谷IT界人

常在西方生活片中看到这样的情景，在教堂举行婚礼，男女宣誓后，
牧师总会说一句：“I now pronounce you man and wife”(现在我
宣布你两成为夫妻)。懂点英语的人都知道，丈夫是husband,妻子是w
ife, 为什麽牧师不说husband and wife 或者说 man and woman, 硬
要说成man and wife?
原来，早在17世纪初诺曼底人征服英格兰时，婚礼就使用man and
wife了。当时man就是"丈夫"的意思，反而是husband才表示“耕田或
做生意的男人”，这也是为什麽在大一点的字典中，husband仍保留
有“节俭地使用或经营”的释义。
有趣，千年轮回，man和husband的词义居然互换了。然而，基督教的
婚姻习俗仍然没有多大变化，man and wife的说法就在教堂保留至今
。我想，除非那段经典的、格式固定的宣誓词“To love and honor
