Posted: 22 Sep 2011 11:00 PM PDT

Clean, sterile Singapore has an edgier, nightlife side to it.

For years, clubbing institution Zouk was solely responsible for bringing all night revelers to new party highs, but now with newly opened super nightclub Avalon, and ultra lounge Pangaea inside the Moshe Safdie-designed waterfront Crystal Pavilion, night owls have even more cause to party.

There are so many reasons to come; here's just 10.

Hong Kong gets its first Apple Store

Posted: 22 Sep 2011 09:23 PM PDT

Hong Kong's first Apple store has landed. While it doesn't open to the public until Saturday, September 24 at 9 a.m., we managed to get a first look at what will become the computer giant's flagship store in the city.

Located at the eastern end of the IFC shopping mall, the two-story Apple store manages to remain somewhat understated at first glance. Its indoor location doesn't afford it the space for any architectural statement-making, unlike the one in Shanghai.

Posted: 22 Sep 2011 09:15 PM PDT

With the self-confessed "rogue economist" and best-selling author Steven D. Levitt coming to visit in October as part of the Singapore Writers Festival (October 22-30), we put together our wish list of Freakonomics (www.freakonomics.com) questions we want the answers to.

1. Does adopting a misinterpreted Western name like Wilsurn or Rambo increase the volume of your voice and decrease your potential for promotion or pay increase?

飞机上练瑜伽: 健康飞行18式

Posted: 22 Sep 2011 05:00 PM PDT

瑜伽是一项你可以在任何地方练习的运动,当然也包括坐飞机旅行的时候。

只需要几个简单的动作,你就能给自己带来多多益处:它能帮助你伸展肢体,按摩内脏器官,改善血液循环,还可以缓解你在乘机前以及在飞机上可能产生的焦虑。

出门旅行时,按下面这些简单的动​​作练上一练,就能让自己保持心境平和、精力充沛以及舒适放松。 它会使你的身体保持灵活和柔韧的状态,尤其是在飞机上要度过漫长时光的时候。

要想在飞行过程中感到精力充沛并放松身心,就在座位里或过道上(在允许的情况下)练习这些有益健康的瑜伽姿势吧。 这样,你将以一个崭新的面貌迎接目的地。

所以,现在就开始吧: 用鼻子做深呼吸,挺直脊椎,让腹部充分吸气,并且将下巴轻轻贴住喉咙的位置。 这样呼吸五次左右。 记住动作要轻柔,任何时候都不要强迫自己呼吸。

接下来就是健康飞行18式的练习。

全球最佳遊客

Posted: 22 Sep 2011 03:00 PM PDT

只要在心口掛上「遊客」二字為擋箭牌,這支龐大的「旅遊民族」口沫橫飛、語言不通、詞不達意、衣不稱身的行為也變得理所當然、可以被原諒。

然而,並非每位遊客也表現如此。

為慶賀新世代多元「國民外交」的魅力,以下是全球最佳遊客排行榜。 沒有人是完美的,可其中上榜國民即使在最糟糕的情況,至少令人難忘。

這正是我們一開始踏上旅途的一大原因。

這排行榜並沒有科學根據,也非最後定斷。大概會惹怒大部份沒有上榜(或少數榜上有名)的國家﹣﹣然而這正是愛上他們的又一理由。

或許我們是率先討論這話題,可是我們的意見絕非最後結論。 因此歡迎讀者在頁底發表意見,或到我們的 facebook 專頁投票。

10. 加拿大人


旅遊標記
: 加拿大國旗。 他們在能釘的表面都釘上國旗:背囊、帽子、襯衫、短褲、甚至內衣也可能有。 除了愛國,他們大概只是想提醒小偷們:「這行李箱裡只有沉悶乏味的衣衫幾件,你就不要為此冒險了。」

值得稱讚的習慣: 所有非美國人的習性。 跟美國人一樣積極正面,卻沒有美國人的吵耳。

如此誠懇有禮,會讓人在國際曲棍球比賽反過來為加拿大隊打氣,支持他們打倒自己的國家隊呢!
