美國生活記趣～古董電影樂～
Filed under: 謝小詩日記 Author: 小詩學煮菜
時間：2007年8月20日星期一
地點：Bryant Park
事件：欣賞露天古董電影
人物：紐約客們
天氣：冷，小風小雨
今天，老公的國際朋友們，即將齊聚在紐約市中心的Bryant Park欣賞露天電影，真是興奮，要看電影去了，於是一干人就高高興興的準備出發了。
下午3點集合出發，”雙腳”是New Yorker(紐約客)的主要交通工具。本來在路上要喝喝咖啡的，也沒喝著，
因為趕著5點前到公園看露天電影。（補充說明：因為中南美洲的朋友們對”時間”的概念大大不同於我們～如果集合的時間是三點，大概四點才能整裝出發，那是因為他們對生活的態度，是輕鬆愜意般的悠哉，一切慢慢來，邊等邊聊天，培養感情～）
可是，我們竟然在公園裡從4:30等到8:30，足足4個小時在草地上風吹小雨打，又餓又冷，真不知是誰出的好主意，看錯時間還錯的真是徹底呀！還看到11點多，而且是”古老”的thriller movie（驚悚片）～一部由西區考克（Alfred Hitchcock）所執導的～Psycho～（中文翻譯成～驚魂記）。
真是地，在那麼浪漫的草坪上，在綠意盎然的林木懷抱裡，在紐約的市中心裡...應該是很浪漫的，不是嗎？
撇開這不談，還是第一次，和那麼一大群人(外國人)，在汽車來往的叭叭聲中，消防車、救護車的急救聲中，在熙熙攘攘的人群聲中，齊聚在這麼一塊綠地中，享受起吵雜聲中的一小片天地。
驚訝的是，草皮在未開放前，就已經被人群團團包圍了起來，大家拿起野餐巾，搬起公共的桌椅，做勢欲衝樣，等待草皮開放的哨音一響起，就看到人群往草皮中央衝去…真是壯觀！有的打地鋪，有的搭起帳棚來，還有的做起雙人瑜珈來，聰明的，還也野餐了起來。還真是搞不懂，在這麼一個大都會裡，生活費這麼昂貴的都市裡，為什麼要在外面餐風露宿ㄋ?～是另一番情趣嗎？
每當…可能是劇情高潮時，有人起立鼓掌，有人高喊，有人尖叫，也就有人…不自覺的群起傚仿，還以為有大人物蒞臨ㄋ？還要假裝看的懂(當然有些聽不懂啦，稍一分心，就不知道他說的什麼話～當然是英文囉～，真是喘口氣的時間都沒有)，雖然是1960年的大作，可是詭異音樂的隆隆作響，企圖引導觀眾進入恐懼的心理狀態，此時此刻看起來，真是太做作了。
花這麼長的時間，看一部免費的古董電影，好像有點沒效率，冷風吹，小雨打，不過帶著第一次的新鮮感，有老公陪，不然真是自討苦吃是也。

小弟我目前狀況
Filed under: Author: 基福-高雄關稽查組巡緝四股-Next on!
講一下小弟我目前狀況:
我從11/05號開始正式在台北財訓所受訓. 台北受訓一個月,結訓之後再回去高雄受訓三個月. 在這邊認識了一些新朋友. 雖然大家都是海關公務員,不過感覺好像心態都還蠻積極的. 很多人都會利用時間來準備升等考試. 水往低處流,人往高處爬!
我本來以為海關是個超級黑的單位(根據很多人的說法) 所以就想要去選工作環境比較單純的機場.而不是油水多黑暗的港口.
(註:來報到填志願後才知道,小港機場是高雄海關關務局的一個支局,名額少,不一定會分發得到)
當我來到台北問了在這邊工作的人之後, 才知那已經是過去了. 現在由於抓得嚴,所以貪汙的情形減少很多. 當然應該是還是有一些為了錢而不怕死的人會去貪汙! 也有一些是剛好跟到不好的主管而被迫一起收賄或是自願一起收賄!
希望我不會有不好的開始. 等我進去工作時,再把實際的情形再來跟大家報告.
希望各位近來都能不錯!

踢球謝：
我是招生3～6年級
但是學校小
怕學生興趣不佳
以為招不到學生
沒想到到最後竟然爆滿
飲料店老闆娘說他兒子2年級也要學
雞排店媽媽桑講他孩子1年級也愛畫
還有連媽媽也和孩子一起來聽的
班上的位置都不夠坐
現在倒是紙張供不應求
人太多品質就會降低
踢球謝和其他的好哥ㄦ們啊～
我現在也是草創期～當然更希望你們給我寶貴建議囉！
下面就是我的課程表的影像檔！試試看吧！
再來切磋切磋喔～

但是.....這裡怎麼丟word檔呢？
大家加油喔！身體真的要照顧好
現在我週一到週三晚上都要上課
週五晚上或是週六早上都要上另外的素描班，比較少時間上網

鈞，
我上周日才去參加台灣女同學的生日KTV，
他們也叫我張王杰？冠夫姓嗎？哈哈！
我跟他們提到你唷，
我說如果有機會，叫我朋友錄給你聽，
剛講完你就出現了。
現在哥大幾個正妹，都聽過你的歌聲啦！
我還跟他們說你是籃球隊隊長，
大帥哥，生性溫和，不愛說話，出口成"搞笑"，
對人很好，又送我吃糕點！耶～
大家說有機會找環蓮聊聊...哈哈。
侑正你也真天才，
教我怎麼做教學錄影帶吧？
側錄軟體嗎~?
最後，恭喜台灣代表，
在哥大第一份期中考，應用統計，全系(有上百人唷)最高分，
99.5分
最高分是老師自己說的，老師還說"impressive"
因為全班平均不到80分～
我會繼續努力滴～

門外那一排不知名的樹 已經染上深紅的容貌
第一次看到聖誕樹可以長到5樓高
挺拔的樹幹 漸紅的樹葉 從高處飄落
上學途中 會經過 楓葉林
冷風一吹 那楓葉隨風搖晃
旁邊兩隻玩遊戲的小松鼠 一下子就竄進紅的世界
望著楓葉的天幕 陽光流過楓間 滴落林中
一種神聖的意味
雖然校園的花木都開始 玩弄紅色
但是所好各異 競相爭紅
法律學院旁的看台 可以觀望Ithaca全景
我所見的是
BeBe River 循著紅色的樹帽延伸到天際

其實老早就想這樣做了….
只是不知怎麼做，所以…
我出聲音就好了，再請經紀人幫我放上去，
雖然只是很粗糙的、未經修飾的，
但也是最原始、最自然的。
見笑了，各位~
澤民阿~是否想念我的歌聲呢?

以下作業讓我在書桌上活了14小時
Filed under: Author: 澤民-友直 友諒 友多聞
包含吃飯和打哈欠，都沒有離開...
除了上廁所要走幾步以外。
這東東叫做"case study"，台語叫個案分析。先讀一篇背景故事，然後假想自己是經理，來處理個案裡的問題，提出主要建議與次要選項。當然還要做直觀的損益衡量和執行計畫。
我會瘋掉，嘔天啊，
早知道不要租房子了，一月台幣四萬多，
只要租書桌和廁所就好了。
什麼叫"期中考後放假，耶！"
注意，我不是在抱怨，
抱怨會長皺紋。
還有各位老兄，我真好運，
我的背傷已經不痛了。
可是我的背傷，好像一部分也是這樣來的...
PS: 明後天報告期中成績唷。

Due to the public awareness and the social organization’s promotion about the environmental protection, Starbucks have managed to blend company’s interest with social responsibility by increasingly purchasing sustainable and fairly-traded coffee beans. As a senior adviser in CSR, I strongly suggest Starbucks keep focus on the profitability as well as appreciate engagement in social responsibility through NGOs’ activities.
Issues
Starbucks is the world’s leading specialty coffee company, which has 54,000 employees and $2.7 billion revenue in 2001. It purchases about 1% of the world’s coffee supply. To give back to the society, Starbucks has engaged in many social programs, donated millions of dollars and set up a Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) department to oversee its involvement. In 1998, Starbucks decided to take part in the Chiapas Project in Mexico under persuasion of Conservation International (CI), whose mission is to conserve the Earth’s living natural heritage. The goal of Chiapas Project is to preserve pristine rain forests and the ecological habitat by encouraging shade-grown coffee plantations heavily replaced by sun-grown ones for economic reasons. To bolster shade-grown coffee planting, Starbucks has contributed to Chiapas Project $750,000 from 1998 to the present, purchased increasingly beans from shade-growing farmers and monitored their quality. On the other hand, the members in CI directly support the farmers with technology and education to promote their livelihood. It is quite reasonable for Starbucks to pursue these environmental objectives with CI because of two major respects: the quality of the shade-grown coffee beans can continue and the price of them can lower. Starbucks feature high quality coffee beans that are only from labor-intensive shade-grown farms. The better quality of the labors and the coffee-grown environment are, the better quality of beans will be produced, which brings about better revenue and reputation. Besides, without the maintenance of shade-grown farms, the world markets and the higher profitability will drive the farmers to transform from shade-grown to sun-grown farming. Therefore, there will be less and less shade-grown coffee beans and the price then will rise considerably.
The alliance between Starbucks and CI is firm and well functioned in that effort from each side help to reach the common interests and satisfy both different needs. Social responsibility fulfillment is the intersection . Social responsibility fulfillment is the spin-off for the CI mainly concerned about sustainable environment, while it is really a positive and profitable image of modern enterprise. This positive image has brought Starbucks a good fame and reflected on its successful charity selling programs. In addition to Chiapas Project, Starbucks eventually introduced Fair Trade-certified coffee in 2000, another type of social movement which improves incomes of coffee farmers, in spite of some conflicts in the beginning and concerns about beans’ quality. As former CEO Orin Smith recalled, what he really worried about was that people might perceive company’s practices negatively if not taking part in the Fair Trade Movement.
These actions fairly reflect former CEO Orin Smith’s assertion, “Aligning self-interest to social responsibility is the most powerful way to sustaining a company’s success.” Especially current consumers are little by little educated to manifest their social responsibility by purchasing sustainable goods such as reprocessed papers and decomposable plastic.
Options
Besides cooperating with other social organizations, in order to fulfill social responsibility, Starbucks can set up its non-profit-organization or foundation. To own a philanthropic enterprise is more flexible and active in topic choosing. If Starbucks meets the difficulty in keeping the relationship with Trade Fair USA and in complying with its “rules,” great commitment in other aspects such as education fellowship can offset the negative influence. This option may cost more with greater mobility while the third option costs less with less independence. The third option is to highly involve other entrepreneurs including other gourmet segments to articulate an industry-wide guidelines in association with sustainable environment preservation or social responsibility undertakings. This action is plausible due to public awareness of these issues and the need of stages to demonstrate enterprises’ charitable engagements.
Implementation
Starbucks should publicly guarantee to follow the coffee-purchasing guidelines propose, using it as appealing for concerned consumers. Even a transparent deficit with reasonable cause may raise consumers’ sympathy and therefore promote consumption. In order to take an active position, Starbucks should also actively contact other charitable foundations and environmental organizations instead of waiting for their connection as before. This short-run step is highly suggested to be completed before the expiration of the second memo with CI. In the medium scale, Starbucks should build up an international, highly-trained organic coffee certifying groups since the certifying business is also lucrative. Starbucks can supervise this group, prevent it from bribery, and get the feedback directly. Achievement of these steps creates a probability for Starbucks to be the leadership among food chain companies, even to found an association or at least a discussing platform in a long run.
