BEIJING — At 30, Chen Kuo had what many Chinese dream of: her own apartment
and a well-paying job at a multinational corporation. But in mid-October,
Ms. Chen boarded a midnight flight for Australia to begin a new life with no
sure prospects.
Changing of the Guard.
Like hundreds of thousands of Chinese who leave each year, she was driven by
an overriding sense that she could do better outside China. Despite China’

来自主题: Seattle版 - 我也来说全民健保
说错了请纠正:“以 2013 年而言,如果是个人,这条线是 46K 一年,如果是两人家
庭,那就是 78K。” 好像是这样的,从 400% federal poverty line 以下可以开始享
受 tax break 优惠。如果你的收入低于 100% poverty line,你就保费全免。至于你
的保费在变法以后会增加还是降低,除了要看收入,更要看你选什么样的计划,很难讲。
是的,这个计划的确是收入比较高的人在补这个洞。世界上所有实施全民健保的国家,
钱基本上都是从高收入的人那里拿来的。Or any social welfare, for that matter.

一句就说你知道那些东西是stanmarsh从美新版转过来的--既然你没仔细看,那你怎么
能知道这些东西的出处呢?;-) 此外,在那个楼里,stanmarsh是自己直接贴图片的,
并不是采用转帖的形式,所以自始至终都没有出现过什么所谓的“原发帖的id”,所以
你自称的“误会”实在是出现的莫名其妙。stanmarsh直接贴的图片就在原贴的39楼,

来自主题: TrustInJesus版 - 转一篇老文 setting 关于多马福音的
多马福音,又译托马斯福音(The Gospel of Thomas),是四福音书之外的一部具有争议
的福音书,据称是由十二门徒之一的托马斯所写。曾经有不止一位朋友跟我推荐过它,
我后悔没有早些听从他们的建议。因此,在这里,我向看到这篇文章的读者郑重推荐它
。它的作者是位伟大的智者,具有广阔的胸怀,跟它相比,圣经其余部分显得如此粗暴
、阴沉、狭隘、俗不可耐。(此言一出,我估计读它的就基本只有非教徒了,没关系,
我的确更在乎那些自由的灵魂。)
在我怀着热情评述其中的一些内容之前,先说一些关于它的基本事实。它的科普特语(
Coptic)译本在1945年从埃及Nag Hammadi出土,而希腊语本则于1898年从Oxyrhynchus
出土。它的真伪当然是有争议的,有的人将其尊为第五福音书,而有的则将其归为次经
甚至伪经。这也是很自然的事,因为其他四福音书跟它根本不是一个档次的,是市井小
民和人文思想者的区别。
真伪的甄别不是我的工作,如果它为真,那么耶稣基督的伟大可直追释迦牟尼,却是被
追随者败坏和歪曲了的;如果它为假,不论出于谁手,我向他致敬。这部福音书有强烈

There are quite a few words on the teams' names, etc, that I am not sure of. This translation is more on conveying their messages (if I understand it correctly), rather than a word for word translation.
I'd like to know which way is preferred. Thanks!

SEATTLE — People are used to liberals running things around here. But
nobody reckoned with Kshama Sawant. Ms. Sawant, a 41-year-old economics
teacher and immigrant from India, took a left at liberal and then kept on
going — all the way to socialism.
When she takes a seat on Seattle’s nine-member City Council on Jan. 1,
representing the Socialist Alternative Party, she will become one of the few
elected socialists in ... 阅读全帖

A wise son brings joy to his father,
but a foolish son brings grief to his mother.
