在之前的一些博客中，我们讨论如何在飞行中睡得更好。这次我们想分享一个很棒的网站，可以帮助您详细地计划您的旅行（甚至您的睡眠）。
看www.seatguru.com。
在网站上，您可以：
– 参见座椅图
– 了解航班运输和信息，
– 获取座位建议，
– 阅读用户评论并查看照片。
您还有机会了解座椅的长度和宽度、腿部空间、便利设施，以及从内部了解您的航班的基本信息。
评论是特别有用的，因为您可以阅读人们的飞行体验，并且您从他们的评论中获得令人惊叹的详细程度。
读到我即将乘坐阿联酋A380飞往泰国的航班，我知道哪些座位最适合预订，哪些座位因为正好在机组人员办公室的上方，所以会很吵。
我发现作为一个素食主义者我应该预定什么菜单选项，很期待多大的腿部空间，甚至如何赢得扶手之战。
HOW TO SLEEP BETTER ON LONG-HAUL FLIGHTS
The time of flying is coming. No, not the magical Quidditch flying (we wish!), but the flying we are all accustomed to.
Whether this summer takes you traveling for business or pleasure, we all want to arrive at our destination well-rested and prepared.
Unfortunately, relaxing and taking a nap on the plane does not come easy to all of us. So what can we do fall asleep in the air?
Recreate your sleeping habits. Do you sleep on the right side of the bed or left? On you stomach? Side? Back? Choose the seat that will allow you to come as close as possible to your regular sleeping conditions.
Wear something comfortable. If you have an important meeting on arrival, just change into formal wear after you land. Choose soft fabrics and
Grab an extra pillow (can be one of those U-shaped ones) and use the airport pillow to roll under your knees. You can also use your carry-on as leg rest to help with the limited leg-room problem.
You can not control the scent on the airplane. Food, beverages, a mix of perfumes and that distinct “plane smell. Yes, you can’t control that. But, you can add a drop of lavender oil (or whatever else calms you down) on your pillow or under your nose. That can help you fall asleep faster and will create a nicer ambiance.
Sleep masks are a good way to fall asleep faster and also get a sense of more privacy. But if you are not into them, try putting on a simple cap. This will put shade over your eyes and let you relax away from all the comings and goings on the plane.
Surely, there are a lot of modern appliances, comfort solutions and even medication to help you sleep better. But the best and perhaps, most advanced trick of all – is to control your mind.
Call it meditation or call it something else, but some people have mastered the art of completely tuning out the outside world sleeping peacefully through the whole journey.
如何在长途航班上睡得更好

飞翔的时代即将来临。不，不是神奇的魁地奇飞行（我们希望！），而是我们都习惯的飞行。
无论您今年夏天出差还是休闲旅行，我们都希望在到达目的地时充分休息并做好准备。
不幸的是，在飞机上放松和小睡对我们所有人来说都不容易。那么在空中睡着了怎么办呢？
重塑你的睡眠习惯。 你睡在床的右边还是左边？在你肚子上？侧边？后退？选择能让您尽可能接近正常睡眠条件的座位。
穿舒适的衣服。如果您在抵达时有重要会议，请在着陆后换上正装。选择柔软的面料和拿一个额外的枕头（可以是那些 U 形枕头之一）并使用机场枕头在膝盖下滚动。您还可以将随身行李用作腿靠，以帮助解决腿部空间有限的问题。
你无法控制飞机上的气味，食物、饮料、混合香水和那种独特的“飞机气味”。但是，您可以在枕头上或鼻子下添加一滴薰衣草油（或其他任何能让您平静下来的油）。这可以帮助您更快入睡，并营造更好的氛围。
睡眠面罩是更快入睡并获得更多隐私感的好方法。但是，如果您不喜欢它们，请尝试戴上简单的帽子。这将使您的眼睛蒙上阴影，让你从飞机上的来来往往中放松下来。
当然，有很多现代设备、舒适解决方案甚至药物可以帮助您睡得更好。但最好的，也许是最先进的技巧——是控制你的思想。
可以称之为冥想，也可以称之为别的什么，但有些人已经掌握了完全排除外界干扰的艺术，在整个旅程中都能安睡。
Need a Boost? Snack on Goji Berries! (health tip from Centre O)
We rarely appreciate what we have in abundance. A common snack in Asia – goji berries – are hailed as one of the healthiest supplements by doctors and nutritionists across the world.
They increase vitality, help treat diabetes and high blood pressure, maintain eye health, liver and kidneys.
They are abundant in vitamins C and E, beta – carotene and lycopene.
On an everyday basis, they help increase metabolism and energy level, which makes dry goji berries a perfect office snack. Mix them up with seeds, nuts and cereal for more nutritional value.
需要提升吗？吃点枸杞！（来自 CENTER O 的健康提示）

我们很少珍惜我们所拥有的丰富。亚洲常见的一种小吃——枸杞——被世界各地的医生和营养学家誉为最健康的补品之一。
它们增加活力，帮助治疗糖尿病和高血压，保持眼睛健康，肝脏和肾脏。
它们富含维生素 C 和 E、β-胡萝卜素和番茄红素。
在日常生活中，它们有助于提高新陈代谢和能量水平，这使得干枸杞成为完美的办公室零食。将它们与种子、坚果和谷物混合，以获得更多营养价值。
I Am Interested in Studying in Hong Kong and Subsequently Getting an Employment Visa. Will a Prior Shoplifting Record Affect My Chances?
It is natural to be concerned about the possibility of your past affecting your new life.
However, when it comes to Hong Kong Immigration Department, you should not be too worried about your past mistake.
Of course, they care about security threats and risks that a person with a criminal record may pose to the society, but their response to most cases seems to be quite forgiving.
Moreover, there are no formal requirements at any point of your visa application (whether it be student, employment, investment or Right of Abode) to disclose your criminal history, unless the Immigration Department asks for it specifically.
However, once you are in Hong Kong, any illegal activity would have a strong impact on your future in the city.
之前的入店行窃记录会影响我在香港学习和获得工作签证的机会吗？
是否担心你的过去影响你新生活。
对于香港入境事务处，你不必太担心你过去的错误。
他们在意有犯罪记录的人可能给社会带来的安全威胁和风险，但他们对大多数案件的反应似乎相当宽容。
此外，除非移民局特别要求，否则在您的签证申请（无论是学生、就业、投资或居留权）的任何时候都没有正式要求披露您的犯罪历史。
但是，一旦你到了香港，任何非法活动都会对你在香港的未来产生重大影响。
Wining and Dining Your Clients? Better Follow the Rules!
We al like to make a good impression. Especially when it comes business dinners.
Wining and dining our clients, partners, friends and family, is deeply enrooted into our culture, so why not learn a few simple etiquette tricks to make the experience complete?
So here a re a few tips for your dining out:
- Dress nicely
True, we are now much more causal than we used to be even ten years ago. But it is still recommended to play it safe and lean towards formal wear for formal dining.
For men – classic suits or a shirt and tie are a good choice. For women – a dress/suit and classic shoes (not sandals)
2. Keep you personal items off the table
Bags, cellphones, keys and a mobile phone have no place on the table. They will clutter the table, distract your companions and complicate the job for waiters.
3. Pay up front
In order to avoid a loud debate on who should pay the bill, do it in advance. Excuse yourself from the table for a moment and discretely settle the payment.
4. Not the tight time for Instagram
It is a common trend to take pictures of your food these days and it would not surprise anyone. However, when you are dining with a client, keep the images in your memory. Unless, of course, your client him/herself initiates the picture taking.
5. Where doe the napkin go?
On your lap. If you leave the table, carefully put it on the chair. And when the meal is over, place it neatly on the left side of your plate.
6. Follow your client’s lead
Let the guest order first and order the same number of courses. This will help avoid awkward waiting and keep the meal flowing smoothly.
7. Business can wait
It is customary to not start talking shop until the entrée is finished. Use the time for small talk, catching up or discussing food preferences.
8. Remember the basics
No elbows on the table
Cut your meat piece by piece
Butter your bread on your plate
Look into the glass when drinking and not over.
Bon Appetit!
招待客户？
（图片）
我们都喜欢给人留下好印象。尤其是在商务晚宴上。
为我们的客户、合作伙伴、朋友和家人提供餐饮，深深植根于我们的文化中，那么为什么不学习一些简单的礼仪技巧来使体验变得完整呢？
所以这里有一些外出就餐的提示：
穿着漂亮
的确，我们现在比十年前更具因果关系。但还是建议大家安全起见，在正式用餐时尽量穿正装。
对于男性来说，经典西装或衬衫和领带都是不错的选择。女性，连衣裙/西装和经典鞋（不是凉鞋）
2 . 让你的私人物品远离桌子
包、手机、钥匙和手机不能放在桌子上。他们会弄乱桌子，分散你的同伴的注意力，并使服务员的工作复杂化。
3. 预付
为了避免关于谁应该支付账单的激烈辩论，请提前进行。暂时离开桌子，小心翼翼地结算付款。
4. 不适合拍照分享
如今，拍照留念你的食物是一种普遍趋势，任何人都不会感到惊讶。但是，当您与客户一起用餐时，请将图像保留在您的记忆中。当然，除非您的客户自己发起拍照。
5. 餐巾纸去哪儿了？
在你的腿上。如果你离开桌子，小心地把它放在椅子上。用餐结束后，将其整齐地放在盘子的左侧。
6. 听从客户的指示
让客人先点餐，然后订相同数量的菜式。这将有助于避免尴尬的等待并保持用餐顺畅。
7.业务可以等待
通常在主菜完成之前不要开始谈论商务。利用时间进行闲聊、探讨或讨论食物偏好。
8.记住基础知识
桌子上没有肘部
把你的食物一块一块地切下来
把你的面包涂在盘子上
喝酒时看着杯子，不要喝完。
祝你用餐愉快！
