What other people think of you isn’t nearly as important as what
you think of yourself.
别人怎么看你并不重要,重要的是你怎么看自己。

对现状的不满和反叛只会让你在这个社会里横冲直撞,年轻人,还是大胆地走出自己的路吧。

真男人不拒绝眼泪。
Memorizing the answers isn’t as important as finding your
own.
与其熟记标准答案,倒不如按自己的方式解决问题。

Facebook挖苹果墙角:“脸书”插足手机市场
Facebook has hired more than a half
dozen former Apple software and hardware engineers who were on the
iPhone, and one who worked on the iPad, to build the Facebook
Phone, The New York Times reports.
Instead of posting job listings for the Facebook phone online,
CEO Mark Zuckerberg and his team are recruiting employees for the
phone by hand, according to the report. Zuckerberg is peppering
former Apple engineers with very specific questions about the
iPhone, too — including the types of chips used.
The Facebook phone project has been rebooted a number of times
because the company only recently discovered it needed to bring in
people with phone-making experience, according to the report. One
Facebook employee told The New York Times that Facebook originally
thought it could figure out hardware development on its
own.
身体可是自己的:15个小改变让你更健康
Did you start January full of health
resolutions, determined that this would be the year that you ate
better, lost weight and exercised regularly?
你是不是在年初就给自己定下健康计划,下定决心要在今年减下体重,锻炼身体,并吃得更健康?
If you’re back to your usual habits – skipping breakfast,
grabbing chocolate to get you through that afternoon slump,
neglecting your fruit and veggie intake and chugging down mug after
mug of coffee – don’t feel guilty about it. Your problem isn’t that
you lack willpower – it’s that you tried to change too much at
once.
而现在你发现自己老毛病又犯了——不吃早餐,忽视水果和膳食纤维,咖啡一杯紧接一杯,其实不要有负罪感。不是你缺乏改变的意志力,而是你想一次性改变的东西太多。
Instead, try making some of these very easy changes to your
eating, drinking and exerci

四个简历错误将让你与梦想擦肩而过
4 Hidden Resume Mistakes That Will Cost You The
Job
简历,顾名思义,就是对个人学历、经历、特长、爱好及其它有关情况所作的简明扼要的书面介绍。简历是个人形象,包括资历与能力的书面表述,对于求职者而言,是必不可少的一种应用文。优秀的简历,可以帮你敲开理想职位的大门;反过来,糟糕的简历,会让你离梦想更远。
Most employers will tell you that job seekers routinely make
obvious, painful errors on their resumes that cost them the job.

尼日利亚逮捕45名中国商人
扣押近百名中国公民

Nigeria has arrested 45 Chinese illegal textiles traders in
its main northern city of Kano and plans to deport them, the city’s
top immigration official said on Wednesday.
Nigerian law forbids foreigners from certain trades meant to be
reserved for locals, including selling clothes.
'Our men arrested 45 Chinese, 11 of them are women. We carried
out this exercise to salvage our economy,' Kano controller of
immigration Emmanuel Ifeadi told Reuters.
'We were directed to clear them from the market and this is going
to be a continuous exercise ... Those people arrested now will soon
be deported.'

以貌取人是真的:有张好脸很重要
The way you look means a lot—especially if
you’re in the financial industry—and the more trustworthy you look
to potential clients, the more you’ll attract higher
investments.
外貌很重要——尤其是对从事金融行业的人来说,更是如此。你的外表越得潜在客户的信任,你就越能吸引更多的投资。
Despite appearances and first impressions, a recently published
study reports that even if people hear negative information about
you, they’ll still be more inclined to invest their money with the
person whose face is perceived to be more trustworthy.
最近一篇研究发现,客户除了外形和第一印象外,还很在意对方的长相,要是你的脸给他们可信度多一点,就算他们获悉了你的负面消息,仍会倾向于给你投资。
'Trustworthiness is one of the most important traits for social
and economic interactions and our study examines whether people

英国ATM机出错吐双倍现金
银行称不必归还
英国某地一台ATM机发生故障,在顾客取款时会吐出双倍数额的现金,有数百名顾客趁机取款,但银行表示大家可以留下这份“飞来横财”。
此消息不胫而走之后,有些人甚至赶来取走了数千英镑。
事件发生在英国汉普郡利明顿附近的富裕小镇米尔福德,前来取款的居民们迅速排起了长队。
在两小时的故障时间里约有200名顾客取走现金。随后警方赶到现场,关闭了这台ATM机。
警方还通过推特发布了关闭故障ATM机的消息。
消息说:“如果你接到电话,称汇丰银行在米尔福德镇的一台ATM机发生了故障,可以多取钱,那么对不起大家我们已经赶到那里了。”
“如果你故意从ATM机中多取钱,那么银行可能会以欺诈罪追究你的责任。”
但汇丰银行表示,他们不会追讨多支付的钱,因为错在银行。
银行的一位发言人说,这不是顾客的错。
他说:“机器的分发功能出错了,我们不会要求顾客返还现金,这当然不是顾客的责任。”

最近比较烦?教你如何摆脱烦恼
Someone entitled 'How to worry' tells about
the clock that had a nervous breakdown. A new clock placed on the
shelf was ticking two ticks to the second as any good clock should
tick. Then it began to calculate how many times it was going to
have to tick. 'Two ticks to the second means 120 ticks per minute.
That’s 7200 ticks per hour, 172,800 ticks per day, 1,209,600 per
week for 52 weeks, and a total of 62,899,200 per year.' Horrified,
the clock had a nervous breakdown.
有人给这个故事取了个名字——“烦恼的方式”:这是一个得了神经衰弱的时钟的故事。架子上摆了一个新时钟,它每秒比其他正常时钟多“嘀嗒”一次。然后,它开始计算它到底要“嘀嗒”多少次呢?“一秒‘嘀嗒’一次的话,一分钟就是120次,一个小时7200次,一天172,800次,一周1,209,600次,一年有52周,共62,899,200次!”被这可怕的计算结果吓到,可怜的时钟得了神经衰弱。
