1.一定要有独立的人格、独立的思想。一个经过独立思考而坚持错误观点的人比一个不假思索而接受正确观点的人更值得肯定。不要成为灌输教育的牺牲品。
2.仕途，商界，学术。大致说来，每个人都注定要走上三条道路中的某一条。
在进行职业生涯规划的时候，不妨以此作为思考的出发点。根据不同的职业生涯规划来塑造各自的核心竞争力。只有知道自己以后要做什么，才能知道自己应该学什么。
3.专业无冷热，学校无高低。没有哪个用人单位会认为你代表了你的学校或者你的专业。千万不要因为你是名牌大学或者热门专业而沾沾自喜，也大可不必因为你的学校不好或者专业冷门而自卑。
4.千招会，不如一招熟。十个百分之十并不是百分之百，而是零。如果你有十项工作每项都会做百分之十，那么，在用人单位眼中，你什么都不会。所以，你必须要让自己具备核心竞争力。“通才”只有在“专才”的基础上才有意义。
5.不逃课的学生不是好学生。什么课都不逃，跟什么课都逃掉没什么两样。一定要掌握学习的主动性，不要像读中学一样被老师牵着鼻子走。逃课没有错，但是不要逃错课。同时，既要逃课，又要让老师给高分。
6.一定要学会理财。对于贫困生来说，首先要做的不是挣钱，而是省钱。很多大学生读书的时候一掷千金，可是，毕业以后一个月的工资还不够交半个月的房租。
7.大部分女生将电脑当成了影碟机，大部分男生将电脑当成了游戏机。大学生要掌握必要的计算机操作能力，但是，很多时候电脑会成为浪费时间的堂而皇之的借口。有电脑的大学生非常多，可是，这中间很多人可能大学毕业的时候还不会Excel，不会做一个像样的PPT。
8.做事不如做人，人脉决定成败。一个人有多少钱并不是指他拥有多少钱的所有权，而是指他拥有多少钱的使用权。一个人具备多少能力，不只是说他一个人的时候能做什么，还包括他能通过别人做什么。一个人赚的钱，12.5%是靠自身的知识，87.5%则来自人脉关系。三十岁以前靠专业赚钱，三十岁以后拿人脉赚钱。所以，请好好珍惜大学期间建立起来的人脉关系。这几年你认识的朋友可能会是你毕业以后最宝贵的财富。
9.互联网固然威力无穷，但是，如果你沉迷于网络聊天，或者沉迷于网络游戏，浪费的金钱倒是可以弥补，荒废的青春就无可追寻了。轻舞飞扬已经红颜薄命了，而痞子蔡却继续跟别的女孩发生着一次又一次的亲密接触。对于很多大学生而言，网吧就是一个血淋淋的黑洞。
10.爱情是不期而至的，可以期待，但不可以制造。花开堪折方须折，莫让鲜花败残枝。一个有一万元钱的人为你花掉一百元，你只占了他的百分之一；而一个只有十元钱的人为你花掉十元，你就成了他的全部。
11.研究生扩招的速度是30%，也就意味着硕士学历贬值的速度是30%。千万不要以为考研究生就是积极进取的表现。对于很多人而言，考研不过是一种消极逃避的方式罢了。对于绝大多数人而言，读研究生纯粹是浪费时间浪费金钱，立志从事科研、学术的人及其他少数人除外。
12.不要一门心思想着出国，更加不要迷信外国的月亮比中国圆。削尖脑袋记GRE词汇很可能是一件非常愚蠢也非常可悲的事情。既然全世界的公司都想到中国的市场上来瓜分蛋糕，为什么中国人还要一门心思到国外去留学然后给外国人打工？
13.人才市场就是一个地雷阵。通过多种方式求职固然没有错，但是千万不要饥不择食。只要用人单位一说要你交钱，你掉头就走便是了。
14.求职简历必须突出自己的核心竞争力。求职的时候大可不必像严守一那样“有一说一”，必要的时候恰到好处地说一些谎言是非常有用的。一份求职简历只要用一张A4纸做个表格就足够了。很多女生的求职简历就像是写真集，不但浪费钱，而且对求职毫无用处。面试其实是有规律的，每次面试的时候只要背标准答案就行了……
15.垃圾是放错位置的人才。所以，在找工作的时候一定要把自己放到那个让你成为人才而不是垃圾的职位上。当然，前提是你要知道自己究竟想做什么、究竟适合做什么。世界上最大的悲剧莫过于有太多的年轻人从来没有发现自己真正想做什么。骑驴找马固然没错，可是，并非随便找一头驴就能找到千里马。所以，一定要重视第一份工作。
16.大公司是做人，小公司是做事。进入公司工作以后，必须尽快融入写字楼政治。职员能否得到提升，很大程度不在于是否努力，而在于老板对你的赏识程度。在写字楼的斗争中，一定要学会自我保护。具体技巧就不多说了，书中每一条都说得非常具体。
17.瘦死的骆驼比马大。撑死胆大的，饿死胆小的。一定要有创业的勇气和魄力。就算月薪2万元，在深圳、上海那种地方，一年的存款还买不来一个小小的洗手间。
18.大学期间一定要多去图书馆多去自习室。很多书你现在不读，一辈子就再也没有机会去读了。虽然不是每本书看了都一定有用，但是，因为你不知道究竟哪本书以后会有用，所以只好多看书，并且抛弃那些过于功利的想法。

前日，易中天作客宁波天一讲堂，开讲《先秦诸子百家争鸣》，谈到老子的“无为”思想，易中天举例说，“最差的就是最好的，所以讨老婆也是一样，就要娶最丑的。”
怪谈1 《史记》谈老子不靠谱
娶老婆要娶最丑的千里马其实恨伯乐当领导要懂得“无为”
这个名为《先秦诸子百家争鸣》的讲座一开始，易中天就向读者道起歉来，“这个题目太宽泛了，两个小时内肯定说不完，所以我听大家的意见。”一个胆大的男孩子站了起来说，“我想听老子。”就这样，易中天开讲老子，“最难讲的就是老子，司马迁的《史记》中记载，老子活到了160岁，还有人传说老子活到了 200岁。所以，我虽然觉得司马迁是非常可靠的，可他关于老子的事却不靠谱，哪有人能活那么长。”
怪谈2 娶老婆要娶最丑的
说到老子的“无为”思想，易中天有自己的一番时髦见解，“老子认为要取得成功就要无为、低调、示弱，谁都知道水是天下最柔的东西，可它也是世上最不可战胜的，所以老子认为最差的就是最好的，最柔的就是最刚的。就像如今我们讨老婆，绝代佳人红杏出墙的机会很大，讨老婆就是要讨最丑的，丑女会死跟着你。”
怪谈3 千里马其实恨伯乐
说到庄子，易中天认为他比老子更加率性，向往自由。“庄子的《马蹄篇》就写了这样一匹马，走到有水的地方它就喝水，到了有草的地方就吃草，吃饱喝足了就撒开蹄子满草原飞奔，多么惬意的生活啊！可就是来了一个混账的伯乐，把它带走了，给它穿上枷锁、安上马鞍，还训练它正步走、跑步走，走过主席台时还必须得挥蹄。成功的标准不是因为世俗的价值而去牺牲自己的天性和自由。”
怪谈4 当领导要懂得“无为”
围绕着“无为”，易中天说：“当领导也是，最好是什么也不会。”易中天还以项羽为例，“为什么项羽打仗老是输呢？就是因为每次打仗他总是冲在第一个，后面的士兵肯定会想，‘好啊！你老大，你冲向前，那你自己去打吧！’”在这一点上，易中天认为刘邦的做法就聪明很多，“刘邦这个人啥也做不了，所以就当领导。遇到小事，刘邦就吩咐下属去做，碰到大事，他就召集起大家来一句‘为之奈何？’，我该怎么办呢？下属打了胜仗就论功行赏，从来不和下属抢功。这就是典型的无为而治啊。”

XML Schema is an XML-based alternative to DTD.
An XML schema describes the structure of an XML document.
The XML Schema language is also referred to as XML Schema Definition (XSD).
The purpose of an XML Schema is to define the legal building blocks of an XML document, just like a DTD.
An XML Schema:
- defines elements that can appear in a document
- defines attributes that can appear in a document
- defines which elements are child elements
- defines the order of child elements
- defines the number of child elements
- defines whether an element is empty or can include text
- defines data types for elements and attributes
- defines default and fixed values for elements and attributes
XML Schemas are the Successors of DTDs
I believe in near future XML Schemas will be used in most Web applications as a replacement for DTDs. Here are some reasons:
- XML Schemas are extensible to future additions
- XML Schemas are richer and more powerful than DTDs
- XML Schemas are written in XML
- XML Schemas support data types
- XML Schemas support namespaces

On the internet, URLs stands for Uniform Resource Locators, and URIs stands for Uniform Resource Identifiers.
According to W3C’s definition:
"…a URL is a type of URI that identifies a resource via a representation of its primary access mechanism (e.g., its network "location"), rather than by some other attributes it may have. Thus as we noted, "http:" is a URI scheme. An http URI is a URL. The phrase "URL scheme" is now used infrequently, usually to refer to some subclass of URI schemes…"
According to another resource, it seems more sense to me:
"URI stands for Universal Resource Identifier and URL stands for Universal Resource Locator. Often times people use the terms interchangeably, which is not entirely correct. A URL is a subset of the URI popular protocols. These are protocols (http://, ftp://, mailto:). Therefore all URLs are URIs. The term URL is deprecated and the more correct term URI is used in technical documentation. All URIs are means to access a resource on the Internet and are a a technical short hand used to link to the resource. URIs always designate a method to access the resource and designate the specific resource to be accessed."
In conclusion, always trying to use URI for your reference…
