Such cautionary tales, and fears of a bubble, are not denting exuberance. Silicon Valley remains in thrall to the success stories, none more so thanAirbnb, which started as two guys with an air-bed and is now a global rival to hotel chains valued at $10bn.
Rhett's enthrallment with Scarlett O'Hara begins when he overhears her declaration of love for Ashley in the library while the rest of the "proper" girls take a nap.

"From then on, I was a well-known TV reporter," he said, adding that he has "no difficulty in saying she was my favourite PM".
He added: "The truth is that from the moment she became leader of the Conservative Party in 1975 through to her 11 years in power, I was in thrall to Mrs Thatcher".
In his 1994 book on Skadden, Mr. Caplan described Skadden lawyers in thrall to Mr. Flom as they would try to decode his doodles and cryptic remarks, like “They’ve taken their best shot, and it was a balloon with no air in it,” and “Their phone is off the hook, and no conversation is going to put it back on.”
In China, Traffic Benefits the Enterprising
By ANDREW JACOBS
As
travelers spent the night stuck in traffic in Guizhou Province,
residents were happy to sell them instant noodles and other staples — at
a 500 percent markup.
Not wanting my work to go to waste and ever-hopeful that people are looking for a better method for the improvement of multi-agency services, I have published my proposal for Total Place at: http://www.systemsthinking.co.

除了減低師生比，和讓老師能更專注於各科的教學之外，瑞典各機構也致力於協助老師設計教案和考題。在教案方面，教育部發布的課綱裡仔細羅列了學生在修完一門課以後必須習得的能力，同時也會提供可以達成這些學習目標的示範教案。比方說瑞典高中歷史第一級，有一個學習目標是習得歐洲歷史的幾個重要的時代劃分，如佃農時代，海權時代，啟蒙時代等等，學生必須學習這些時代的特徵，並且理解各時代是用什麼視角去劃分的。最後，學生必須去「質疑」（problematization）一個「時代」概念的形成。就這一點，教育部提供了「維京時代」作為示範教案，建議老師可以問學生，對他們來說「維京」是什麼，他們覺不覺得自己是「維京人」？接著老師可以介紹「維京時代」這個詞彙在十九世紀時出現的時代背景，並請學生想一想，這個詞沒有更早在歷史上出現，有什麼可能的原因？從這個「質疑」的過程中，學生可以去思考歷史知識的人造性，以及歷史和建構「我們」和「他們」這種群體意識的緊密關係。在教育部和各科教師協會的網頁裡，可以找到許多很有趣的教案。如果對教學法研究有興趣，高中老師可以申請成為「第一老師」，學校給「第一老師」很多時間和空間去發展更好的教案，薪水也更高。
