==============================
Last night a friend claimed that Donald Trump wouldn’t make a good
president; he is brash, he is racist, he is a loudmouth; you know the normal
things people learn to recite after being programmed by television news.
The one I loved was that, “Trump is arrogant.” My friend questioned if one
man could make “that much difference in the world today.” To my friend’s
credit, she was respectful enough to let me respond when she asked, “
Really, what has Trump done?”

have become trapped in legal limbo because of an overburdened refugee system

人民币贬值对许多亚洲国家的货币来说是一个新的风险，后者此前没有像相当大一部分
新兴市场货币那样下跌。
最近几周，韩元、台币和新加坡元等新兴市场货币走势疲弱，这标志着今年以来各种货
币对美元汇率疲软的格局翻开新篇章。
美元强势一直是2018年新兴市场货币疲软的主要推动因素，阿根廷、土耳其和南非等国
家由于经常账户赤字而特别脆弱。相比之下，那些经常账户盈余的新兴市场国家此前受
到了庇护。
百达(Pictet)经济学家帕特里克•兹韦费尔(Patrick Zweifel)表示，亚洲货币面
临压力，并非因为新兴市场的传染效应，而是因为“贸易紧张，对中国的敞口，以及人
民币贬值”。
对于投资者而言，货币疲弱局面的最新转变似乎表明，出现波及面更广的市场和经济压
力的风险正在上升。上周晚些时候，美国总统宣布准备对中国出口至美国的全部5000亿
美元产品征收关税，同时他还抨击强势美元以及美联储(Fed)维持收紧利率政策的意图。

我是逆市而上，非Walmart的衣服不买
大量的评论都说，对想省钱的，Walmart最实在，而且质量也不错。
为什么会有这个形象上的坏名声呢？
因为，很多大妈们去Walmart，她们nickel and dime，
那种劳累的身影和Walmart一起经常出现在公众场合、电影和电视里面
多年下来，两者就被紧紧联系起来了
大家一般不向往那种劳累的生活，
而容易向往和名牌衣服一起出现在画面的帅哥美女的那种自信
或者和 D&G，Giorgio Armani一起出现的那种成功的感觉
对此，I don't give a damn
我一个男人穿Walmart买的Jeans，只会自豪，不会自卑
因为这实实在在说明我顾家，而不大理会被广告左右的虚荣心
我觉得我这种心理不是什么偏激或者自视清高的
而是很自然的
如果我这个观点被更多人所讨论和接受，Walmart的衣服也许会越来越受人欢迎
有没有道理？ |

睡了一觉，又大概又回忆了一遍前因后果，觉得有必要写出来供新司机参考：
当时天色全黑，三个lane的直行车流，我和前车距离十字路口只有两秒或三秒的距离，
我在最左lane，我左边还有一个lane是停下来等绿灯的左转车。救护车事后知道是从相
反方向左转过来。救护车距离事发地隔着一个几十米宽的十字路口。我事发前一秒左右
用眼睛余光，可以隔着等左转绿灯的车队隐约看到救护车的闪光，当时下意识第一反应
根本没有我要减速。
当时潜意识里两个念头浪费了反应时间，导致了事故发生：1.一闪而过的念头，理所当
然认为闪光是对面在道路施工，与我无关。2.绿灯已经亮了一会儿了，再一秒钟就不怕
变黄灯了。
再说明一下，当时我的后车也是距离我极近刹住的，我前车是三个lane的直行车辆里第
一辆急刹避让救护车的车。剩下三个lane的车是在我们追尾后停下来的，
以事后状况判断，她的车距离救护车很远，（事发地十字路口两边... 阅读全帖 |
