A recent survey of over 35, 500 single ladies in China offers some insight
into Chinese women's attitudes towards men and marriage. The survey, which
included questions such as "Why are you still single?" and "What kind of man
do you hope to marry?" shed light on the types of men that single Chinese
women prefer, with some surprising results.
While 51.13 percent of the women surveyed regarded "getting married" as
their goal, they reported that the top three male traits that made them

Switch back to your English then, I'm curious to see how ridiculous this gets.

Rachel Meng Jing was a typical Asian girl, shy, submissive, smart,
unassuming. She did well in school, came to Australia to do her ph.d. It
took Jack, a pure bred White Aussie boy, just a few months to turn her into
a complete slut.
They met on the street. Jack picked up the innocent Asian girl with his
sweet talk. It was that easy, for a White man to pick up an Asian girl.

Inside the White House and out, advisers and associates have noted
subtle but palpable changes in Mr. Obama since his re-election. “He even

At that moment, as we talk, there’s a knock on the door of Bannon's
office,
a temporary, impersonal, middle-level executive space with a hodgepodge of
chairs for constant impromptu meetings. Sen. Ted Cruz, once the Republican
firebrand, now quite a small and unassuming figure, has been waiting
patiently for a chat and Bannon excuses himself for a short while.

Glad to see that you're planning the next move, Sunnyday! If I were you, I'
ll plan on applying. Since your mentor brought up the subject, it's a good
opportunity to ask for her advice, esp how she feels about divvying up
projects -- it's a sensitive subject even if you're in very good
relationship so be unassuming just in case her expectation is different from
yours.
Her advice about proposing what's fundable rather than what interests you is
a very good insight. I'm learning it the hard way

First of all, the best defenses against weeds are a healthy and thick lawn,
mowing high, and watering as infrequently as grass allows and as deeply as
soil allows.
Personally, I think weed & feed products for post-emergent weed control is a
great marketing gimmick for the unassuming consumers. It is banned in
Canada for a reason. Why? Broadleaf herbicides are best when applied to
the leaves, so imagine how effective could a granular form be. It could

If you read the above headline and think this is going to be a column in

Derrick Rose is either the league's best player or one of the top five, take

But there is one arena where the two players intersect. That would be

Is it time to move the NBA’s 3-point line back? Has the shot become too
easy and too frequent in today’s game?
From an analytical perspective, the 3-point shot is one of the most
important scoring options on the court. But is it too easy for contemporary
players? During the Finals, the Spurs made an incredible 47 percent of their
3s, which translates to 1.41 points per shot. It’s no wonder they
