Australian Labor Party Expected to Endorse Gay Marriage Rights
By Andrew Harmon
AUSTRALIA MAP X390 (GETTY) | ADVOCATE.COM
The Australian Labor Party is poised to adopt marriage equality as part of
its platform, despite Prime Minister Julia Gillard’s stated opposition to
marriage rights for same-sex couples.
In a saving-face maneuver, however, Labor MPs will be allowed to take a
conscience vote on the issue during the party’s national confer... 阅读全帖 |

The long anticipated ruling is expected to address three issues: (1) whether
former U.S. District Court Judge Vaughn Walker should have recused himself
from hearing the case because he is gay and had a long-time partner with
whom he was not married; (2) whether the proponents of Proposition 8 have
the right to appeal Walker’s decision striking down Proposition 8 as
unconstitutional when none of the state defendants chose to do so; and (3)
whether, if Walk... 阅读全帖 |

国内那么多大学生，到美留学毕竟占总量的少数。据教育部统计，2012年一年赴美留学

前者的10倍多，如果再算上研究生，后者比前者肯定更多。但在美留学生杀人案件的发

什么原因呢？
原因就在于，我们国内的媒体、学校、包括家庭，对于霉国社会和文化的虚假性的超级
美化，导致了上一代和这一代留学生对于霉国的不切实际的过高预期（Expectation）
。这是显而易见的，我们在国内，受到的“教育”（说得好听一些是教育，说得中性一

Aside from the other delayed provisions, including the business mandate that

有些问题不明想请教大家：
start-up package 是不是包括
1）list of equipment,
2）TA,RA人数和年数。（比如2个RA，3年？）
3）offices for students, and lab space for equipment
还有其他的吗？
比如说知道学校以前的offer里start up package差不多500k，那么这个500k是不是包
括equipment和学生的工资学费？
非常感谢！ |

我也是听了Levis 你之前给我的建议，做了backup Plan，保持一个option.不一定要用
，但是给自己留条后路。对我们来讲，research 是最重要的，所以我很努力的把
research 做好了很多。
倒是没人挑剔我research了，现在他们开始拿teaching 说事了。所以我感觉，是远远
也没法子达到 他们的expectation.
然后我就对整个academic 有点心灰意冷了。

发帖数: 136 | 35 从网上的标准答案，谈钱应该是在给了offer后再negotiate，但实际上怎么操作？
因为对现在的工作不满意，在骑驴找马
刚刚onsite了一家，比我现在的公司大很多，在第二轮面试时被问到salary
expectation，按教材，把球踢回去，问他们给我这个水平的多少，结果他们给出的数
字比我现在拿的还少，当时也没多想，就给了个比我现在工资稍微高一点的报回去，可
能比他们给的多10%，结果现在得到消息，以经济原因宣布最近不招人。
后来想一想，当时报钱可能是个失误，但如果别人问到你的预期，甚至也给出了他们的
数字，如果你当时没反应，如果等拿了offer 还可以再negotiate ？还是应该在当时就
给出自己的预期？
ps，是在因为公司的牌子响，如果必须可以牺牲一下自己salary的前提下 |
