- Uruguay with only 3.3 million inhabitant is one of the world’s “full democratic”, ahead even, by one place, of the United State. Uruguay scores perfect 10s on the indexes of civil liberties and electoral process, Uruguay has avoided excessive nationalism to maintain social harmony, Uruguay has avoided religious influence on the society, a feat equaled only by Norway and New Zealand.
- 烏拉圭人口僅3百30萬是世界上20個完全民主國家之一，甚至比美國更民主。其人民的自由和選舉過程被評為世界最高分(10分)只有挪威和紐西蘭跟它一樣，避免民族主義撕裂社會，避免宗教影響政治。2015年95%能源都是可以再生的。

- 科學加選了249有經驗的女性長跑者，她們跑時都以後跟先著地。觀察她們兩年。很多人認為後跟先著地會引起運動傷害。但是發現兩年下來，100為有需就醫之傷害，40為有輕微傷害，而其它109位沒有傷害。
- A Study has found that runners who strike the ground with their heel, first get less injuries, contrary to what is commonly believed.

How China Sees Russia
How China Sees Russia:
Beijing and Moscow Are Close, but Not Allies
Fu Ying, Foreign Affairs, Jan/Feb 2016
- 北京前駐英、澳大利亞大使，外交部副部長傅瑩居然在美國頂尖的《外交事務》期刊討論對美國而言是極端敏感的問題。她的論述理性不諱言一般人躲避的議題，但呈現北京國家政策符合其國家利益。文字看來沒有強詞奪理的語氣。值得學習。
- Fu Ying wrote: ”Beijing and Moscow, sometimes they agree; sometimes they do not. But they are able to acknowledge and manage their disagreement while continuing to expand area of consensus. The Chinese-Russian relationship represent a possible model for other state to follow.”
- Chong-Pin Lin: Fu Ying implies that the Chinese-Russian relationship is a model for the new major-state relationship(新大國關係的典範)

l 作者是美國退伍的特戰上尉。他說:「使用特種部隊會保證無止境的衝突和暴力，因為不受人民監督。長遠目標？無。」
l White House officials have taken to what a report in this newspaper recently called “linguistic contortions” to obscure the forces’ combat roles. As the military as a whole downsizes, Special Ops recruitment continues to rise. There are approximately 70,000 Special Ops personnel today, a number that includes soldiers, civilians, National Guard and Reservists, as well. This number is up from 45,600 in 2001 and 61,400 in 2011.

l 臉書革命從阿拉伯之春，到佔領華爾街到香港佔中的運動並未建立持久的政治秩序。因為新媒體常於解構而拙於建構，可以廣播聲音而無法凝聚共識。
l 發動2011年埃及革命的年輕人Ghonim最近說:「我以前相信網路可以解放社會，但我錯了。」

l 美國智庫CSIS說:「2030年時，南海將成中國湖，有如加勒比海是美國湖一般。」
l 美國派軍艦穿越南海之訊息不明確。到底是「自由航行」(freedom of navigation)以挑戰中國對島礁的主權呢？還是「無害通過」(innocent passage)間接承認了中國對島礁的主權？
