We have noticed for some time that Asian populations tend excel in Math and Science but I haven't heard a convincing argument for why this may be until now. Malcolm Gladwell, author of the well-acclaimed "Tipping Point" and "Blink," has written a new book called "Outliers: The Story of Success." While Roger Gathman has some criticisms for the book, the guardian.co.uk published an excerpt from the book that provides a provocative, if not compelling, case ...Shared by Darius (56)Contribute comment -

真遗憾去北京前没有看到楞楞de山头推荐的这篇贴心post 我也是真的离开啦 留下无尽的遗憾T T 转贴上来给还在北京的盆友们 还在北京的你赶紧逛荡哈 BTW,WP2.7-beta2 后台尊是漂亮:) N天前就升级袅 今天体验post :) 离开北京前要做的50件事 1 在明朝的皇家粮仓里观赏《牡丹亭》 始建于明永乐七年的皇家粮仓比故宫还早10年,如今这里已经变成了仅容纳 60人的艺术殿堂。坐在600年前大运河的起点,先品尝美食,再观看来自大运河另一端、同样有着600年生命的昆曲经典,无疑是一件赏心乐事谁家院的绝妙 享受。尤其这出《牡丹亭》,“余秋雨监制、汪世瑜出品”在戏曲界本身就意味着厅堂的概念,而唯有皇家粮仓方可还原明代上演昆曲的旧制。 东城区东四十条22号(6409 6477)。 2 宋庄参与一场行为艺术 如果你在宋庄看到一个裸体女子漠然伫立,或一群男子被关在铁笼子里静坐,千万不要诧异和惊惶。或许,这是一场最前卫的行为艺术在你眼前上演。宋庄已成为 代表先锋的艺术群落,有个宋庄广场行为艺术工作坊( www.thesquare.com... 钻进个工作坊或艺术画廊,这里的艺术品价格一般不那么离谱,比较有升值潜力,眼光够犀利的话,兴许能发现中国艺术未来的“F4”。来宋庄,起码得预留出一 天时间。打驶入“中国宋庄”大门起,就得左右岔口都瞅好了。小堡村艺术区、任庄村艺术区、宋庄村艺术区、宋庄艺术工厂区、画家大院区……每条小路蜿蜒进 去,都是块艺术家的小型集散地。 通州区宋庄,可从国贸坐938支9直达宋庄美术馆门口。 3 到M.A.O.看一场最不靠谱的演出 北京的摇滚演出场所很多,但M.A.O .Live House最有无敌的本地气质。它所处的鼓楼一带是老北京胡同文化与街头小年轻文化混搭的产物。M.A.O最有特色的是经常举办一些看似极其诡异外加恶搞 的派对,推荐奥运开幕当天8月8日的“非常现场系列之我的奥运—— 非常摇滚”,演出乐队有痛苦的信仰、逃跑计划等,票价80元,但“擦了郁美净又骑二八大车来的同志们可以现场购买50元票价入场”,这可不是什么难题,就 看你有没有这点雅兴了。又比如8月29日,“短裙飘起来主题派对”,“演出当天凡穿短裙的男女均可免费”(男50元,女40元),男的赶紧借条性感的小短 裙穿,反正不怕走光。 西城区鼓楼东大街111号(6402 5080)。 4 大觉寺赏花品茶 只消半小时车程,即可从繁华的京城中心到达这座千年古刹。乾隆皇帝曾在此出家,但终究舍不得万里江山、九五之尊以及三宫六院。而这里的古木禅花,也因这 位风流帝王的踯躅而彰显着人世的风流繁华。在跨院的斋堂用毕斋饭,缓缓踱到院内席地而坐,聆听古琴大师在辽代建寺时种下的千年古银杏树下弹奏的天籁之妙 音,品味着茶道高手在芳龄三百年的玉兰花间烹制的世外之香茗。皇帝的雍容生活,也不过如此嘛! 路线:从市中心走万泉河快速路,至颐和园北宫门路口沿颐阳路北行,至温泉路左转即到(6245 6162) 5 去明星录音棚做专业歌手 想过把歌星瘾最常见的方法是去卡拉OK,如果你还有更高追求,可以去录音棚录一张自己的唱片。尤其是在北京这种明星扎堆的地方,绝对不乏“星光现场”。 比如目前全亚洲最大的录音棚乐家轩,汶川大地震后成龙曾组织上百位艺人在这里录制歌曲《承诺》,内地港台的大明星几乎全来了这里。你大可以去初试啼声一 把,体验准明星的感觉。这里有十分专业的录音设备,录音室环境也很舒适,玩票一个小时价格也不算太高。 北京市东城区美术馆后街大取灯胡同2号(8404 7687),棚费:260元/小时,录音师30元/小时,录音需提前预约,如果翻唱歌曲,请自备伴奏带。 6 定制全球独一无二的阿迪球鞋 阿迪达斯的球鞋满大街都能买到,但如果你想拥有一双全世界都不重样的阿迪呢?全球最大的阿迪达斯旗舰店特别设置了Mi Adidas 互动原创区,你能够在这儿发挥创造力、体验“量足定做”的服务。先由专业机器收集你的身体数据,接着你就能按自己的喜好组合鞋子配件,选择颜色、图案,最 终穿上一双绝无“撞鞋”之忧的个人专属球鞋,目前阿迪达斯还只在少数大型旗舰店推出了这项服务,在中国,就北京这一家。 朝阳区三里屯路19号院三里屯Village。 7 在香山脚下包场看露天电影 还记得小时候关于露天电影的体验吗?对了,现在就让你回到80年代,所不同的是,你不用和上百人挤在大操场上看,而是独享一场露天电影。香山脚下有一家 建在废弃影视城里的餐厅野柳别馆,除了无敌的香背靠香山的无敌风景,还能在草地上看露天电影,而且可以提前预约点片。若点片遇上库存没有的,老板也会想尽 办法给你租过来。8月的北京,香山脚下的温度比城里要低六七度,坐在草坪上,背靠西山,小风吹着、小酒喝着,宽银幕里放着为咱单点的《天堂电影院》……这 大概惬意得都让人有些不知所措了。 海淀区西北五环香泉环岛东侧普安店240号荷叶山庄18号院(6259 1142)。 8 北大京昆社免费学唱做票友 如果你真心热爱京剧昆曲,北大京昆社是难得的一方园地。和社会的“票社”有所区别的是,它更加单纯、理想。你只要愿意就能加入,如果失去兴趣随时可以离 开。最重要的是,这里还有北方昆曲剧院的张卫东老师等专业名师坐镇指导,而这一切都不需要付出金钱,只需要付出你的热情。即使荒腔走板了也不要紧。 京昆社论坛:bj.netsh.com/bbs/87425 9 一边泡澡一边俯瞰故宫 ...Contribute comment - دوستت دارم (1)

Medvedev also singled out the United States for criticism, casting Russia's war with Georgia in August and the global financial turmoil as consequences of aggressive, selfish U.S. policies. He said he hoped the next U.S. administration would act to improve relations. In ...Shared by Mjohnson (62)Contribute comment -
