Some people believe that fun prevails everything else in life. They go so far as to exclude anything serious from consideration. They never raise such questions as whether it is moral, honest or necessary. Of course a lot of things are fun indeed. Family outings are fun; playing a game of basketball is fun; and chatting over a cup of coffee is fun. But if you regard fun as a must in life, you are bound to look for more and more thrilling ways to supply it, among which one particular way is to step up the level of danger or alcohol consumption constantly, so as to manage to have a little fun. You should avoid treating fun irreverently or the price of the excess could be the absence of fun no matter how hard you try. So the correct way is to treat fun reverently, so that you may have some fresh fun now and then.

When You Move, I Move: Increasing Synchronization Among Asia's EconomiesIn recent decades, trade integration within Asia has increased more than in other regions. In valued-added terms, intraregional trade grew on average by over 10 percent a year from 1990 to 2012, twice the pace seen outside of Asia. Likewise, financial integration within the region has started to catch up, although it still lags behind trade integration. Concomitantly, business cycles in Asia have become steadily more synchronized over the past two decades, with the correlation between ASEAN economies'growth rates almost reaching the very high levels seen within the Euro Area.As outlined in the IMF Asia and Pacific Department's latest Regional Economic Outlook, these facts are related. Namely, increases in trade and financial integration have strengthened the propagation of growth shocks between regional partners, leading Asian economies to move more in lockstep. One driver of this synchronization of business cycles has been the increase in size and connectedness of China's economy. Looking ahead, we expect regional integration agenda and a bigger China to further increase spillovers and growth co-movement across the region. Greater international cooperation, particularly regional and global financial safety nets, can help countries respond to the associated risk of more synchronized , sharper downturns, and thereby help Asia make the most of greater regional integration. Trade integration has been an important synchronizing force for Asian business cyclesOn the trade side, our study brings a novel finding: what makes two economies co-move—by propagating shocks across borders—is the intensity of their bilateral trade in value-added terms, not in gross terms. The iPhone supply chain example illustrates why this makes sense; although China exports the product to the US, its domestic firms add only a small fraction of the overall value added, so that gross exports vastly over-estimate the dependence of the Chinese economy on final demand from American consumers. The reverse holds for Korea or Taiwan of China POC, which reap sizeable value added through exports of components to China mainland even though they don't export any iPhones to the US. Overall, the trend increase in the value-added traded between Asian economies over the past two decades has accounted for around one-quarter of the concomitant increase in business cycle synchronization across the region.Financial integration has been a more ambivalent force. Across the world, it has magnified the impact on business cycle synchronization of large global shocks like the global financial crisis, as global banks pulled funds back across the board. But in normal times, it has lowered synchronization somewhat , possibly by facilitating international reallocation of capital when a shock hits one country. However, this has been less of a factor in Asia, where cross-border financial claims and flows have so far been comparatively small.

While children learn spoken and body language—proper postures, eye behaviors, etc. —they also learn a subtler thing; how to react to space around them. Man walks around inside a kind of private bubble, which represents the amount of air space he feels he must have between himself and other people. Anthropologists, working with cameras, have recorded the tremors and minute eye movements that betray the moment the individual' s bubble is breached. As adults, however, we hide our feelings behind a screen of polite words. Anthropologist Dr. Edward T. Hall points out that, for two unacquainted adult male North Americans , the comfortable distance to stand for private conversation is from arm' s length to about four feet apart. The South American likes to stand much closer which creates problems when two meet face to face. For, as the South American moves in, the North American feels he' s being pushy; and as the North American backs off, the South American thinks he's being standoffish. The American and the Arab are even less compatible in space habits. Arabs like close contact in some instances, they stand very close together to talk, staring intently into each other' s eyes and breathing into each other's face. These are actions the American may associate with sexual intimacy and he may find it disturbing to be subjected them in a nonsexual context. The amount of space a man needs is also influenced by his personality—introverts, for example, seem to need more elbow room than extroverts. Situation and mood also affect distance. Moviegoers waiting in line to see a sexy film will line up much more densely than those waiting to see a family-entertainment movie.
