 Downing the last drop of an expensive famous brand H20 as well as remembering to throw the empty bottle in the recycling bin,makes you feel pretty good about yourself,right? It shouldn’t. Even when the bottles are recycled,there are all kinds of other consequences of swallowing bottled waterways Melissa Peffers,the air-quality programme manager for Environmental Defense.

  The containers are often filled in faraway lands,then shipped from abroad,and stored in refrigerators at your local store. Compare that with the influence on environment of turning on your tap,filling a glass,and drinking up!

  Anyone who is choosing bottled water for health reasons is misguided,says Peffers.   “Most bottled water is just tap water. ”And what comes out of your tap is carefully monitored to follow the strict rules. Consider another fact that bottled water is surprisingly expensive,especially when compared with the alternative,which is almost free,and it is astonishing that America’s desire for bottled water seems impossible to satisfy,reaching nearly 30 billion bottles a year.

  “My parents’ generation never had bottled water”’says Isabelle Silverman,an Environmental Defense legal adviser. She has made a commitment to going bottle free.   “You don’t need to fetch it home from the store,and it’s cheaper,” she adds.

Bottled water’s role as a status symbol needs to change,Peffers points out. So when a waiter at an expensive restaurant offers“And what’s your drink?”that,no reason to forget your conviction (信念) .“Don’t be afraid to say, ‘I’ll have tap. ’ Say it loud enough that the other tables nearby can hear you”’Peffers says. “And then spend that money on a dessert. ”

  Climbing Kilimanjaro is a transformational experience for many people. The things that make the mountain hard are the very things that make it so powerful. In the case of my son Josh and I,the walk up Kilimanjaro proved a powerful symbol of his transition into manhood,and a great change in our relationship.

  Day three on the mountain,Josh was hit with massive headaches. He told me every step felt like a nail driving into his head. And then,on the night we climbed the crater rim,less than 40 minutes from the summit,Josh fell. I was walking ahead,and did not even see it. He was so exhausted that he could not get up. He recalled our guides,debating whether or not they should take him straight down. Josh snapped out of it. He forced himself to his feet,and shook the guides off. He set his face towards the peak and just kept marching. Near the summit he caught up with me and we reached the peak together.

  “I’ve never been in so much pain and so happy at the same time”’he said,as we sat side by side on the frozen rock and looked down over Africa. “You know,in the past when we’d go on camping and rafting trips,you guided and took care of me through it all. But on Kilimanjaro it was different. From the bottom up,I climbed it. I never felt like a kid,even when I was in pain. You never acted like a parent. ”

  “That’s not quite true ,”I replied. “When you told me that on the summit you fell and I did not even notice,my first thought was ,‘Oh my God!I’m such an awful parent!y But then it hit me, ‘ He got himself up. He walked to the peak on his own. He didn’t need me to help.

  Italy is one country where beauty is prized more than any other virtue. That is,except in the small town of Piobbico,the self-declared World Capital of Ugly People. The road sign at the edge of the town even warns visitors that they are entering the ugly zone. People who consider themselves ugly have been gathering in Piobbico since the 1960s. That’s when Ugly Club president Telesforo Lacobelli established a dating agency for women who believed they were too ugly to attract husbands. Lacobelli believes that he is ugly himself because he has a short nose in a country where long or large noses have always been considered beautiful.

  People from around the world travel to Piobbico to tell their sad stories of ugliness. During the annual Festival of the Ugly,which occurs on the first Sunday of every September,hundreds of people gather in Piobbico’s town square to elect the president of the Ugly Club. Lacobelli wins the election every year. The Ugly Club has over 20,000 members. They carry ID cards that grade their ugliness from bearable to extreme. A prize is awarded to Ugly Club members who qualify as extremely ugly.

  The Ugly Club president insists that ugliness is a virtue. Since beautiful people get a lot of attention for their beauty alone,they have to work hard to prove their other virtues. Ugly people,on the other hand,are genuine and do not have to prove anything to anybody,according to Lacobelli.

  Lacobelli is a spokesperson for ugly people everywhere. He believes that the uglier one is,the better life can be. Though the club enjoys making fun of beauty,especially beauty contests,Lacobelli has a serious side as well. He believes that too many people suffer from financial and emotional pressures because they don’t meet society’s standards of beauty. The fact that beautiful people are more successful in the workforce is a problem that Lacobelli has attempted to bring forward to the Italian public and government.

  Even if you are naturally shy,these three tricks will help you to quickly build a new social circle in any new city.

  1. Take pictures 

  One of the great things about taking pictures at an event or party is that it gives you an excuse to get in touch with the person later. Everybody loves seeing pictures of themselves,and it’s very easy after taking a picture to say ,“If you’d like I can email it to you. ” This can be the seed that leads to new connections. The next time you hear about a fun event email your new contacts to let them know about it.

  2. Eat alone in public You might feel self-conscious eating by yourself but it has an important benefit : you are much easier to approach when you are alone. People may be afraid of interrupting you or being rude if you are in a conversation with someone else. Bring a book or newspaper to read (this will make you feel less self-conscious) . Plus,having an interesting book with you will give others an excuse to start a conversation if they’ve read it.

  3. Join a class,sports team,or club 

  Yoga,salsa dancing,volleyball,Toastmasters (a public speaking club) ,a class for work,etc. Take up a new hobby or continue an old one!

  These are all great places to meet new people,primarily because you will be forced to see the same people over and o-ver again in the class. You will automatically make friends with them if you have a common interest and are forced to see each other again.

Tips:

* In the beginning,never turn down an invitation from someone,even if it’s something you wouldn’t normally do.

* Email your new friends with fun things to do instead of always asking what their plans are. If they have a better plan you can drop yours and join them. This will help establish you as someone who is contributing value instead of just taking it (people want this in a friend) .

* Don’t let little things in life upset you or be a negative person. People don’t want to be around someone like that!
