| Posted: 15 Dec 2011 02:10 AM PST  那天，我上了一辆出租车——准确地说，我是打算上那辆出租车，可是一打开车门，一股难闻的"毒气"扑面而来，浓烟从这位司机的鼻孔和嘴巴（或许还有别的地方）里冒出来，真可谓是"七窍生烟"。 原来，在靠边停车的时候，他正在车里抽烟，而且车窗紧闭，严丝合缝。 车里有三四个禁烟标志，他却视而不见； 政府颁布了确保乘客健康和舒适乘车环境的相关法律，他毫不在意——哪怕这对他自己也有益。 不，他需要满足他的烟瘾。 我砰的一声关上门，继续往前走。 几分钟后，我招手拦下了另一辆出租车。但是天呐，司机正叼着一根烟呢。 第三辆出租车倒很干净，于是我钻了进去，动身前往目的地。 但是车才开了两分钟，司机点着了一根烟。 我在下个红灯径直下了车，不理会他的大声叫嚷，头也没回。 我不会说中文，但能猜出他大概在说："嘿，我有权带着身边的人和自己一起慢性自杀，你这个傻老外。 付我14块钱车费。" 吸烟者请住嘴吸烟就是一种不能容忍的行为。它不仅为一种极其浪费时间和金钱的自杀方式，在这个慢性自杀的过程中非常残忍地对待你周围的人，实际上还是一种违法行为——违反了上海禁止在出租车、酒吧和餐厅内吸烟的相关法律。 有意思的是： 自2010年3月以来，上海实施了公共场所全面禁烟令。 但是立法者对于违规者没有规定任何处罚措施，也没有制定任何执行程序。 所以，这项法律就像许多张嘴站在街上嚷嚷"吸烟伤了我的心"。      |
| 10 best places to spend Christmas 2011 Posted: 15 Dec 2011 01:01 AM PST  This Christmas, why not explore a little? These destinations can add an international shine to your festive cheer. 10. San Juan, Puerto RicoWhy: Can't get enough of Christmas? Head to San Juan in Puerto Rico, where Christmas is a marathon. It runs from November through mid-January with the town enjoying carols, feasting on roast pork and watching blazing fireworks. On Christmas Eve, many Puerto Ricans head to Misa de Gallo, midnight mass, to catch a re-enactment of the nativity scene. On New Year's Eve locals might make you eat 12 grapes for luck, and the government hosts a free-for-all party.    |
| First look at JAL's 787 Dreamliner Posted: 14 Dec 2011 09:28 PM PST  Tired of Dreamliner updates yet? Neither are we. The first image of Japan Airline's (JAL) new Boeing 787 Dreamliner has been released by Boeing, showing off the JAL livery. The jet's tail wears the new JAL logo, which is based on the airline's original symbol, first registered in 1959. The iconic red-crown crane in full flight is "an auspicious icon of Japan representing the high spirits of the Japanese people and their sensitive attention to detail," according to JAL.    |

| Why you can steal a Banksy from your hotel Posted: 14 Dec 2011 08:36 PM PST  Who can claim they've never stolen anything from their hotel? Who has never stuffed their bags with boutique toiletries or done a runner before paying their mini-bar bill? Anyone? Well, after many years of bearing the brunt of petty thieves, a group of Melbourne hotels are now encouraging their guests to make off with $15,000 worth of art. It happens to be an original work by the world's most famous street artist –- and the world's most famous anonymous person -- Banksy.    |
| Worst Bollywood movies of 2011 Posted: 14 Dec 2011 08:00 PM PST  2011 will go down as an eventful year as far as Bollywood was concerned. We've seen all sorts of records being broken. These include Salman Khan releasing two movies that shattered all-time opening week box-office numbers. "Ra.One" establishing itself as the most expensive Bollywood movie ever made, and Shahrukh Khan conducting the world's most elaborate Pavlovian Experiment, where you now want to slap him every time you see an ad for one of the gazillion products he endorsed this year in an effort to promote this movie. And of course, amidst all this awesomeness, was a bunch of movies that never deserved to see the light of day.    |
| Hermès Singapore store tagged by Kongo Posted: 14 Dec 2011 02:00 PM PST  Graffiti in Singapore is normally a no-no. This is the country that put American Michael Fay and Swiss national Oliver Frick away for their spray painting antics. But Cyril Phan -- better known by his street tag, Kongo -- has managed to steer clear of the Singapore police despite tagging a giant piece of graffiti on Hermès' new Scotts Square store hoarding. The difference is Hermès actually sanctioned the French urban artist's work. They liked his work so much that they've commissioned him to decorate the Singapore store windows with his trademark tags; the only Hermès store in the world to feature them.    |
| Tokyo's Tsukiji fish market in action Posted: 14 Dec 2011 01:55 PM PST The world's best-known seafood market is the jewel in Tokyo's tourist crown Tsukiji market, on the often-neglected Tokyo waterfront, is the largest wholesale fish market in the world. It's also one of the busiest, and most visited, food markets anywhere. The main section of the market is open to visitors from 9 a.m., leaving the earlier, hectic trading period solely to the professionals the market caters to -- apart, that is, from a handful of public observer spots that are usually snapped up before the sun rises.
