VATICAN CITY (Reuters) - The Vatican's newspaper has finally forgiven John Lennon for declaring that the Beatles were more famous than Jesus Christ, calling the remark a "boast" by a young man grappling with sudden fame.

原文作者：Alysa Teichman原文链接：Four Truths About Today's MBA翻译：kava直到今年以前,你还可以几乎肯定地说,一个著名商学院出来的MBA简直就是一份好工作的敲门砖,是高薪的保证。但是，随着金融危机的到来，这件事看起来不那么肯定了。再审视一下商学院的前景，可以说，至少有四件事是有把握的。1，在申请的时候你会面临更多挑战。商学院并没有为即将来临的申请大潮增加更多的名额。这意味着，在这样有更多申请者的年份里，录取的过程将会更加充满挑战，录取百分比将会更小！ 据GMAC（研究生管委会）报告，9月份参加GMAT考试的人员同比增长了11%，而各个学校在信息交流会和网上讨论版上也都受到了更多的关注。一线希望：对于顶级的学生而言，进入精英级的商学院并不会变难。据加州伯克利HASS商学院脱产MBA的执行理事John Peterson说，申请人数增加并不表示申请人的水平提升。2，国际学生会发现更难找到资助。国际学生在经过艰难的申请过程结束后还会面临新的问题。随着信贷危机，学生贷款项目将会更加紧缩，甚或可能完全消失。例如，这个秋季，花旗已经取消了CitiAssist这个贷款计划，这意味着许多国际学生都不会再像以前那么走运，除非他们住在USA，或者，他们在美国有担保人。 经济的萎缩让许多管理人员都不太好过，芝加哥商学院的招生主管罗斯马利.马丁说，问题只是短期的，学校正在想办法解决，他仍然尽量保持学生来源的多样性。除了几乎不可能或得贷款以外，国际学生在拿到学位以后还会面临一些问题。在市场萎靡的时候，各公司都可以很爽地挑选员工，刷掉大批的人，国际学生将会更难拿到希罕的H1-B工作护照。最终结论：更多学生选择本国的商学院学习这一趋势将会持续。3、辞职很危险。有份稳定工作，薪水也不错的人常常很难抉择——辞职去商学院到底值不值？在这样一个不断下行的经济里，谁也不知道后两年的工作行情会怎样，这个问题变得尤为现实，现在比较可行的计划是，暂时不要上MBA，或者，不辞职的情况下，上兼职的课程。宾大沃顿商院的招生主管茱迪斯说，她们要录取的学生最常问的问题就是关于暑期实习的问题和毕业后的就业问题，学生们对这两个问题都相当敏感，非常关心。一般来说，学生常常在衰退时辞职去读一个MBA，在经济复苏时拿到学位，但是，谁也没有把握可以预测衰退可以持续多久。威斯康辛-麦迪逊商学院的招生主管EN说，很多人对于在经济低潮读商学院的机会成本的预期常被投资银行慷慨的工资和丰富的福利所扭曲。但她同时也警告说，机会很容易被人错过，她说“如果不对你自身进行投资，会在经济复苏时让你后悔及”。4.学习依然很值得。虽然读MBA的收益到底有多大还不清楚，但没有人怀疑在商学院学到的东西在经济复苏时将会相当有用，既然执行官们在决策时将会更困难，遇到的商业问题将更加复杂，那么做案例分析也会有全新的意义。芝加哥的马丁说，“现在在这样一个时间，以这样一个角度，发现如何创造价值。这是学习的最佳时机。”——意味着这正是脱离空想，学习现实世界的最佳时机。但是学生们可能还是需要调整他们的职业目标和薪水预期，GMAC老总，DW说“现在是读MBA，进行自身智力投资的好时光”，在两年左右以后，毕业的时候将会面临完全不同的市场。添加评论相关文章： 当前MBA的四大真相 中国刺激经济的雷霆之举 《巴伦周刊》：奥巴马市场的赢家和输家

We had Chuck Norris facts and the Flying Spaghetti Monster in 2005. 2006 brought us I Can Has Cheezburger and (gasp) lonelygirl15, and during 2007 we suffered through endless RickRolls, Leave Britney Alone, 2Girls1Cup, Chocolate Rain and Obama Girl. 2007 was the worst year yet. Naturally, as the end of 2007 rolled around, the question people throughout the world were asking was: what kind of Web memes will 2008 bring? Will we ever see something ...

I’ve been working away at a new theme for the past couple of weeks. Actually, it’s a theme framework that I’ve been building upon for the last two months or so, slowly trying to put all the bits and pieces together. I ran into a bit of a hitch though.
