A woman's highly attuned smell radar help her select a mate

Women may be better at sniffing out biologically relevant information from underarm sweat, a US study suggests.

Dr Leslie Knapp, an expert in biological anthropology at the University of Cambridge, said there were good evolutionary reasons why a woman's ability to detect body odours should be more acute, as it could literally be an effective way to sniff out a suitable mate

She said: "Women perhaps need to be more discriminating when they choose who to mate with to produce offspring, as they invest more than males in the reproductive process.

Dr Knapp said there was evidence that odour gave a hint about genetic make-up. She highlighted HLA genes involved in the immune response.

She said in evolutionary terms it was desirable for a women to mate with a man whose genes were different from hers, as this was likely to produce more robust offspring.

The power of jealousy depends on how tall you are?

Short people should pray for a return to the Seventies fashion of stack heels, for the power of jealousy depends on how tall you are, the British weekly New Scientist says.

Researchers at the University of Groningen in the Netherlands and University of Valencia in Spain asked 549 Dutch and Spanish men and women to rate how jealous they felt, and to list the qualities in a romantic competitor that were most likely to make them ill at ease.

Men generally felt most nervous about attractive, rich and strong rivals

But these feelings were increasingly relaxed the taller they were themselves. The more vertically challenged the man, the greater his feelings of jealousy.

For women, what counted most in jealousy was the rival's looks and charm, but these feelings were less intense if the woman herself was of average height.

This makes sense in evolutionary terms, says New Scientist, in next Saturday's issue

Taller men are most successful with women, and women of medium height enjoy the best health, fertility and popularity with men.

On the other hand, a woman of average height could in certain circumstancesfall afoul of the green-eyed monster if their rival were taller.

"Taller women are more dominant and have greater fighting abilities than shorter women," says the study, which appears in the journal Evolution and Human Behavior.

Three fashion indicators under economic crisis

1. lipstick indicator 口红指数

One Depression-era pattern in female spending was the 25 percent increase in cosmetics sales. When a similar spike occurred during the economic doldrums of 1990 and 2001, this type of consumer behavior didn't elude Leonard Lauder, chairman of Estee Lauder Companies, which manufacture the cosmetic lines Estee Lauder, Clinique and MAC.

Lauder took particular interest in the rise in lipstick purchases. In the fall of 2001, when the economy buckled after the Sept. 11 attacks, Estee Lauder lipstick sales jumped 11 percent. That trend in discretionary (or nonessential) spending has become known as the lipstick indicator.

When women can't afford pricier indulgences, Lauder mused, lipstick offers a cheaper compromise. If a woman aches for a new Chanel handbag that far exceeds her budget, opting for a $30 tube of lipstick may feel like a thrifty shopping decision. Also, women who wear lipstick probably reapply at least a few times per day. Such instant gratification can ease the urge to shop more.

2. Hemline index 裙长指数

The shorter the skirt the stronger the economy, at least that's how the theory goes

In 1926 US economist George Taylor coined the theory of the hemline index. It was a kind of frock exchange using skirt lengths as a signal of the state of the economy .

Anyone applying this theory to the New York autumn/winter 2008 shows, would predict that we are hurtling towards a recession. Hemlines at Marc Jacobs, Jonathan Saunders and Phillip Lim were all resolutely below the knee.

Looking back over the decades it is easy to see why the connection has been made: a glimpse of leg gives a sense of independence and confidence; a sweeping skirt is a sign of modesty and austerity.

3. Hairstyle Index 发型指数

It is almost a century since the US economist George Taylor came up with the revolutionary "hemline index". Now the fashion world has finally offered up an alternative indicator of the country's economic state. The length of women's hair may no longer be seen as a result of the vagaries of fashion, but as an accurate barometer of the nation's wealth.

Japanese researchers have found that when economies are doing well, women wear their hair long; when there is a slump, they cut it short.

People enjoy fewer material pleasures in periods of recession, so want more visual pleasures, and there's more variation among short haircuts than long

If it is not love…

A girl and a boy were on a motorcycle, speeding through the night. They loved each other a lot.

girl: slow down a little.. i’m scared..
boy: no, it’s so fun.. 　　
girl: please...it’s so scary.. 　
boy: then say that you love me..
girl: fine..ilove you..can you slow down now 　　
boy: give me a big hug..
the girl gave him a big hug. 　　
girl: now can you slow down 　　
boy: can you take off my helmet and put it on, it’s uncomfortable and it’s bothering me while i drive. 　　

Then next day, there was a story in the newspaper, a motorcycle had crashed into a building because its brakes were broken. There were two people on the motorcycle, of which one died, and the other had survived... 　　
The guy knew that the brakes were broken. He didn’t want to let the girl now, because he knew that the girl would have gotten scared. 　　
Instead, he was told the last time that she loved him, got a hug from her, put his helmet on her so that she can live, and die himself...
Once in a while, right in the middle of an ordinary life, love gives us a fairytale...

No Painful Waking Up

The slower you build up energy in the morning, the more painful waking up will be. What's better, spending thirty minutes wrestling with the snooze button followed by an hour ramp up to normal mental functioning or quickly starting the day with energy?

Here are a few things to reduce the transition period from being asleep to becoming fully alert. Not only does speeding up this wake-up process save time, it makes waking up less of a struggle.

­1. Light 灯光

Your body's natural clock is tuned to the amount of light. Turn on all the lights in your room right after waking up. Getting bright lights can help trick your body into thinking it is time to get out of bed.

­2. Exercise 运动热身

Put something physical right at the start of your morning. In the summer, I did a quick morning run and found it helpful in shaking off any sleepiness. Considering the outside temperature hovers around -30 C, I've stuck to doing a few pushups in my room. The exercise gets your heart pumping and snaps you out of a groggy state.

­

3. The 10-Minute Rule 10分钟原则

If you want to stick with a consistent wake-up time, practice the ten-minute rule. This means you commit to staying awake for at least the next ten minutes. Once you get over that initial period, the temptation to go back to bed is usually gone.

­4. Active Work 主动的工作

Start your day with work that actively uses your mind. Creative activities like writing, drawing, programming or designing work better than passive activities like reading. By focusing your mind early you can stay focused and brush off any unwanted drowsiness.

­5. Don't Skip Breakfast 吃好早餐

Wake up early enough to get something to eat. Skipping meals throw your metabolism out of balance, causing you to gain fat and lose energy. Skipping breakfast also means your blood sugar will be low in the morning and energy levels down.

­6. Commit to a Sleep Schedule 按时睡觉

The obvious solution to combat sleepiness is to get more rest at night. Carrying a sleep debt throughout the week with the hopes of paying it off on the weekend is a bad strategy. Instead, compress your work into the morning hours so you can get the 6-8 hours you need each night.

­7. Turn Up the Volume 播放音乐

I've found listening to music or audio books helpful in keeping myself awake during the morning. Best of all, if you put on an audio book from your favorite speaker, you can get some encouragement to start your day.

What has made the learning of Chinese difficult?

In some foreigners eyes', the learning of Chinese has become the most difficult thing for them. The tones of Chinese and Chinese characters all seem to be a difficulty. Then what has made the learning of Chinese difficult?

Top 1 Because the writing system is ridiculousThe beauty of the characters is indisputable, but these ideograms weren't too practical for daily use. It is absolutely true that Chinese is hard because of the huge number of characters one has to learn. And Chinese is not very phonetic, which means that often you just completely forget how to write a character, if there is no obvious semantic clue in the radical, and no helpful phonetic component somewhere in the character

Top 2 Because the language doesn't have the common sense to use an alphabetThe English is so easy because of the skills needed to master the writing system are 26 letters and they are written from left to right ,horizontally, across the page, with spaces to indicate word boundaries. In comparison, Chinese has nothing that corresponds to an alphabet, though there are recurring components that make up the characters. It can be said that the components of Chinese characters are arrayed in two dimensions, rather than in the neat one-dimensional rows of alphabetic writing.

Top 3 Because even looking up a word in the dictionary is complicatedOne of the most unreasonably difficult things about learning Chinese is that merely learning how to look up a word in the dictionary is about the equivalent of an entire semester of secretarial school. Chinese must also be one of the most dictionary-intensive languages on earth for there are various dictionaries

Top 4 Because there's classical Chinese (wenyanwen)Whereas modern Mandarin is merely perversely hard, classical Chinese is deliberately impossible. Classical Chinese really consists of several centuries of esoteric anecdotes and in-jokes written in a kind of terse, miserly code for dissemination among a small, elite group of intellectually-inbred bookworms who already knew the whole literature backwards and forwards.

Top 5 Because there are too many romanization methods and they all suckPerhaps that's too harsh, but it is true that there are too many of them, and most of them were designed either by committee or by linguists, or -- even worse -- by a committee of linguists. It is, of course, a very tricky task to devise a romanization method; some are better than others, but all involve plenty of counterintuitive spellings.

Top 6 Because tonal languages are weirdIt's one of the most common complaints about learning Chinese, and it's also one of the aspects of the language that westerners are notoriously bad at. As non-native speakers, you must memorize along with the vowels and consonants. The real difficulty comes in when you start to really use Chinese to express yourself. Intonation and stress habits are incredibly ingrained and second-nature.

Top 7 Because there is culture differenceOne of the main reasons Chinese is so difficult for westerners is that the culture between the East and the West has been isolated for so long. China has had extensive contact with the West in the last few decades, but there is still a vast sea of knowledge and ideas that is not shared by both cultures. When westerners and Chinese get together, there is often not just a language barrier, but an immense cultural barrier as well.

My shopping experience

Like most of the female students,I like shopping.And in suzhou,the place we usually go to shop is The Guanqian Street.There are two department stores in the westside of the street that both sell well,one is called Dayang,and the other is The No.1 Department Store.
They take different business strategies.Dayang always gives their customers shopping voucher if the customer buy many things from it. For example,you buy 600RMB things,they give you 300BMB voucher to buy more.For me, I don't like this way,because I don't like to buy many things at one time.But maybe it is to your profit if you and your friends buy things together. Instead, I like The No.1 department store better . Because they usually give their customers a direct discount in the promotion activities. So I won't anxious about why this clothes cost me 599 RMB that I can't have the shopping voucher.

Seven times have I despised my soul:

我的心悲伤过七次

Kahlil Gibran，1883—1931 纪伯伦

The first time when I saw her being meek that she might attain height.

第一次，是当我看到她本可进取，却故作谦卑时。

The second time when I saw her limping before the crippled.

第二次，是当我看到她在瘸子面前跛行而过时。

The third time when she was given to choose between the hard and the easy, and she chose the easy.

第三次，是当她在难易之间，却选择了容易时。

The fourth time when she committed a wrong, and comforted herself that others also commit wrong.

第四次，是当她犯了错，却借由别人也会犯错来宽慰自己时。

The fifth time when she forbore for weakness, and attributed her patience to strength.

第五次，是当她因为软弱而忍让，却声称为自己的坚韧时。

The sixth time when she despised the ugliness of a face, and knew not that it was one of her own masks.

第六次，是当她鄙夷一张丑恶的嘴脸，却不知那正是自己面具中的一副时。

And the seventh time when she sang a song of praise, and deemed it a virtue.

第七次，是当她吟唱赞歌，却自诩为一种美德时。

Life is mercurial like a chess game

Life is mercurial like a chess game for most people, but for me, it’s more like a game of bridge card. Both sides of chess players have the same odds and possibilities at the very beginning, which is not much like life, as everybody on the planet is unique and is uncertain about his or her fortune such as family background and fortunes. His or her unpredictable future and fortune is just like a card unexposed in a bridge card game. Though destiny cannot be changed, we can choose to face the game of life with different attitudes and the winner is sure to be the one with confidence, skills, persistence and ambition. Fully convinced that I am to be the winner, I sincerely aspire to be a part of your company and face every possibility and challenge in the years to come. I am the one to see the invisible and to achieve the impossible.
人们都说，世事如棋，而我却认为，人生如牌。下棋的双方在初始的时候是势均力敌的，而人生不是这样，没有人能决定自己出生在什么样的家庭，拥有什么样的背景，就好像你没有办法决定手中的扑克牌到底是好是坏，但是我们可以去选择面对它的态度。往往最后在牌局当中取得胜利的不是开始牌最好的人，而是那些真正如履薄冰，用生命与执著去打好每一张牌的人。因此，我真诚地希望加入贵公司，尽自己的所学和所能与贵公司一起在竞争和挑战中共同进步！在未来的工作和学习中，我将更加努力，以实际行动来证明我的能力及努力，“借君伯乐慧眼，始我千里之行”。

Groove Coverage ~ Seven Years and Fifty Days

I downloaded this video at last tonight. I hope you like it.

Groove Coverage ~ Seven Years and Fifty Days

Groove Coverage is a German Euro-trance band. The Groove Coverage project consists of Axel Konrad, DJ Novus, Mell (lead singer), and Verena (former stage performer, occasional singer). The band has had hits around the world, especially in Germany, and have had radio play in North America, especially with the song Poison. They have produced popular remixes of several songs, including "Love is an Angel" by Sylver, "Come With Me" by Special D, and "Ass Up!"byBaracuda. So far, there have been three official albums in Germany, Covergirl (2002), 7 Years and 50 Days (2004) and 21st Century (2006), and a Best Of album (2005). There was also a special Canadian SPG Music release entitled Groove Coverage, which includes their greatest hits in Canada. In the USA, they have an album called Groove Coverage: Greatest Hits. Several of the band's songs have have been cover versions, and those were the songs that boosted their popularity. Examples include "Moonlight Shadow", originally by Mike Oldfield, and their cover of Alice Cooper's "Poison". The third album, named 21st Century was released on July the 7th, 2006. Three singles were released before the album itself, namely "Holy Virgin", an English cover-version of the song "Fata Morgana", originally performed by the Austrian Group Erste Allgemeine Verunsicherung in 1986, "On The Radio", a cover of "Mann im Mond" by Die Prinzen, and "21st Century Digital Girl" based on the song "21st Century (Digital Boy)" by Bad Religion. Before the release of the first single, another Groove Coverage-track named "On the Radio" was leaked to internet file sharing platforms in several different versions. This song sounds nothing like the single itself; apparently this was an attempt to hinder file sharing of the actual single by "poisoning" the networks with a different song of the same name. Fittingly, the decoy track appears on the album under the title of "Let it Be".

Niagara Falls

The Niagara Falls is located in the borderline between Canada and America in the east central North America, on a river that connected two of the five Great Lakes. The Niagara consists of two parts: the Horseshoe Falls on the Canadian side of the river, and the American Falls on the United States' side. They are about 50 Meters high, 1240 meters wide. Niagara Falls comprises three distinct cataracts. The tallest are the American and Bridal Veil falls on the American side, separated by tiny Luna Island and plunging over jagged rocks in a 180ft drop; the broad Horseshoe Falls which curve their way over to Canada are probably the most impressive. They date back a mere twelve thousand years, when the retreat of melting glaciers allowed water trapped in Lake Erie to gush north to Lake Ontario. Back then the falls were seven miles downriver, but constant erosion has cut them back to their present site. The falls are colorfully lit up at night, and many say they're most beautiful in winter, when the grounds are covered in snow and the waters turn to ice.

Yoga at office and home

Working in an office or at a computer for prolonged periods of time can put strain on the neck, shoulder and back muscles which in turn can lead to tension and stiffness. This tension can cause headaches, as well as back, neck and shoulder pain. If left unattended, it could also impact your ability to function effectively at work and your overall quality of life. Simple techniques such as Office Yoga may help alleviate the pain and other symptoms by releasing tension and increasing muscle strength and flexibility. Work is a necessity in our lives. It is better to make the best of the responsibility imposed upon us. Most of us are locked up for hours inside the office or are hooked to computers in our cubicles. Hence, physical ailments, stiffness of various muscles in the body and mental fatigue gradually make their existence, transforming our lives into a complete hell. Doctors and psychologists have opined together that working out simple yoga postures in the office is not only effective in terms of physical exercises but also enlivens the spirit and mind of the tired employee. Simple techniques may help alleviate the pain and other symptoms by releasing tension and increasing muscle strength and flexibility. They can be performed right on the office chair, any time, any day. Take a few minutes for yourself and incorporate some Yoga into your daily routine. Here are some simple Yoga techniques for:
Right Posture
Stress
Neck
Shoulder
Eyes

Right Posture
Neutral sitting or standing should most essentially be practiced. Often we fail to place ourselves in the correct posture whether standing or sitting and soon the problem begins. However, this simple exercise will help you to keep the position of your spine in order.
1.Place your feet hip-distance apart and bend forward.
2.Then look down at your feet. Your feet should be parallel .
3.If you are sitting, keep check that your hips and your knees are in right angles.
4.Sit straight and tall at the edge of your chair.

The Warrior Pose is recommended for relaxation of the upper body. Here are the steps:

Put your right thumb on your right nostril.
Deeply breathe in and out the air using your left nostril.
Similarly press your left nostril with your right index finger.
Inhale and exhale as much as air you can.
Practice this for 1 minute, if you have time, for it to be effective

Neck Training:
While sitting on a chair or in front of the computer, your neck gets affected the most with terrible aching and severe cases, at times leading to spondylitis. Here is a simple way which can relieve you from the stress caused and prevent you from any kind of aching.

7 ways to build the exercise habit

1. Set your Goal.

What do you want to achieve?
Bigger muscles?
Less fat?
More strength?
More speed?
Exercising can be used for several means. Before you take a gym membership, start by setting a definite goal.
What is it that you want?
Don’t try to achieve more than 1 thing at a time. Start with one goal. Once you have attained it, you can work towards a second goal.

2. Set a Deadline.

Set a date by which you will reach your goal. Write your goal and deadline on a piece of paper and put it somewhere you can see it multiple times a day.
A good place would be on your nightstand. Look at it on waking up and before going to bed. This will act as a constant reminder of your goal.

3. Make a Plan.

Once you have set your goal, you must back it up with a plan.
Which exercises will you perform?
How many sets and reps will you do?
How many times a week will you go the gym?
Your time is precious. Any minute in the gym must bring you closer towards the achievement of your goal.

4. Exercise First Thing in the Morning. When you’ve just had a tough day at work, it can be hard to train for another hour at the gym. A solution is to exercise first thing in the morning:

Wake up early.
Eat breakfast.
Prepare the stuff you need for work.
Go to the gym.
One hour later, you’re another step closer towards the achievement of your goal. And you have your whole day to do whatever you need to do.

5. Stick to your Plan.

This is something I experienced on numerous occasions. The days you don’t feel like exercising, are often your best days. Maybe it’s the mind-body connection: the body says no, but the mind says go. Thus the body eventually says go too. I don’t know.Whatever it is, when it’s the day to train, it’s the day to train. Make no excuses, go the gym. If you don’t feel 100% healthy, still go the gym, but train at a lower intensity. The fact that you’ve been there, is more important than the quality of your training. And as I wrote above, sometimes it can turn out into one of your most productive workouts. The more you exercise, the more you build the habit. Stick to your plan

6. Train With Someone Who Has The Exercise Habit.

If you’re training partner quits, you’ll probably end up quitting too. But if your training partner hangs on, you’ll take it as a challenge. Next time you go the gym, look around you. Look at the people who exercise. Find someone who is serious with his training. Take the initiative: ask him if you can train with him. If you choose the right person, he’ll accept your request. Most people know that getting into exercising is not easy, they know because they’ve been there. A good training partner will motivate you & help you achieve your goal. If not, keep on looking.

7. Be confident.

You can achieve whatever you want, if you believe that you can do it. Having a clear goal and a plan will already arm you with self-confidence. Know that it will take 30 days to build the exercise habit. During the first 30 days you’ll need to push yourself to the gym. After 30 days it will become easier: the habits starts to take over, pushing you the gym.

Write this next to your goal and deadline: “If they can do it, I can do it”
