I don't know if I should completely like the typographical design of NewYorker.com .

Being unaffiliated with any particular religion, I'm used to unconsciously linking "freedom" to secular freedom. You know, freedom of speech, freedom of choice, things like that.

However, I stumbled upon the Wikipedia entry on Yonsei University (延世大學), one of the prestigious SKY universities in South Korea. And the web page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yonsei_University#Christianity) states:
Yonsei University is a school founded on Christian principles and purporting to "produce Christian leaders with the spirits of freedom and truth".

Well, what do "the spirits of freedom" mean in Christianity?

The gradual ageing of the Canadian and Chinese societies impending, I guess I'm not sure what will happen 20 years down the road.

U. Q.'s original intentions of joining J's startup were doubtful, or even evidently dubious.

All the same, if we objectively evaluate the case, U.Q. isn't suitable for a tech startup, furthermore, he's likely not suitable for a startup in any business field at all. Because, he's gotten no growth during the past five years or so, and it's probable that he's got no growth potential in him for the future.

Besides, maybe even more pivotally, things which U.Q. had done and hadn't done brought home to J what sort of person U.Q. is.

Can you believe that around half of Americans and Canadians who married have gone, are going, or will go through divorcement, which is naturally traumatic for most people, at least once in their lifetime?

But it is a fact.

I don't know how fastidious French people are with what they wear on them. But I know they look elegant.

Sometime when I watch public interments for Canadian soldiers in news videos, I have a strange thought that the cold fact is those obsequies are for the alive to observe, not for the fallen to, and the dead is dead.
