郑少秋主演。记得10年前电视台放了一半不放了，我可一直记得很好看的，台词像样子，道具布景化妆也用心，人多故事大。今天就在优酷上重新看起来，算是...追梦好了。港人有一个“丁蟹效应”，总有人不知道吧，我来普及一下：丁蟹效应（又称秋官效应）是香港股票市场的一个奇特现象。1992年10月，香港无线电视播放由郑少秋主演的电视剧集《大时代》。故事讲 述由郑少秋饰演的丁蟹，经常在股票市场的熊市中籍着抛空恒生指数期货而获取暴利，正好当时香港股市暴跌，股民损失惨重。因此有了“丁蟹效应”一词。此后十 几年，几乎每次郑少秋主演的电视剧播放的时候，股票市场都会有显著下跌。 郑少秋各次电视剧播出与股市下挫资料： 1992年10月 《大时代》，恒生指数于4日内下跌598点 1994年11月 《笑看风云》，恒生指数总共累积下跌超过2000点 1996年9月 《新上海滩》，恒生指数下跌300点 1997年6月 《天地男儿》，恒生指数下跌735点 1997年12月 《江湖奇侠传》，恒生指数总共累积下跌5324点，跌穿10,000点水平 1999年6月 《神剑万里追》，恒生指数下跌1176点 2000年9月 《世纪之战》，恒生指数于首播日下跌近700点，七日内共下跌1715点 2003年10月 《非常外父》，恒生指数于首播数日上升100多点，但最后累积下跌501点 2004年3月 《血荐轩辕》，恒生指数于三日内共下跌550点 2004年10月 《楚汉骄雄》，恒生指数于首播日下跌近198点 2005年3月 《御用闲人》，恒生指数亦出现过明显的下跌 2006年4月 《潮爆大状》，恒生指数在首播日急升258点，5年来首次升破16000点水平，播放中期曾升穿了16900点，可是后期回落至16600点水平。 2007年2月回放《御用闲人》，在农历新年后开市恒生指数两日内共下跌600点……………………好吧你们明天小心点....... 随机文章：回地球你们开心得了一时还能开心一世吗 2008-09-13想起来还蛮愉快的 2008-03-12沈不孝之认李作父 2006-11-22有饭吃...这么好 2006-11-18艺术少女 2006-03-15收藏到：Del.icio.us奇伟鞋油"炫亮成功路"博客大赛——职场关键时刻，成功达人如何塑造形象、炫亮成功？

Regardless of any questions of ideology, it is very unlikely that the spirit of Bretton Woods will be honored at tomorrow's G20 meeting. This is immediately apparent from the background piece by BBC News Economics reporter (so nice to see at least one news institution respecting that noun!) Steve Schifferes: In the summer of 1944, delegates from 44 countries met in the midst of World War II to reshape the world's international financial system. The ...

I'd been a fan of The Huffington Post up until this election season, when if devolved into a competition for not-very-bright-or-talented lefty journos to try and outdo each other with the most over-the-top articles on why Hitler, Stalin and Lucifer had nothing on McCain, Palin and their supporters.So I was pleasantly surprised to find this very thoughtful piece from Arianna Huffington herself on why the internet has meant the death of Rovian politics. And self-centered ...

作者：苏苗畅 浙江温州 事业职工 恐怕任何一个有理性思维的人，都不会否认台湾地区正处在一个内耗的过程中，但恐怕为台湾地区辩护的人，都会提到一个理由，因为台湾是一个民主的社会。难道民主会导致内耗吗？非常不幸的是，在很大程度上是肯定的。 放眼海外，那些所谓已经民主化、也是为美国等西方国家所吹嘘的国家，如巴基斯坦、印度、乌克兰、泰国等等，莫不如此。 有人问一位巴基斯坦
