| 【经济】Lex专栏：汇丰的亚洲成本 Lex_The world’s Asian bank 2012-02-28 | |
| American analogies might scare HSBC investors after the Asia-focused bank’s disastrous foray into US consumer finance. Yet its much-vaunted restructuring plan most closely resembles a classic three-yards-and-a-cloud-of-dust play – the grinding American football strategy where every yard of progress is hard fought. Seven months into chief executive Stuart Gulliver’s three-year plan, there is dust aplenty.
立足亚洲的汇丰银行(HSBC)进军美国消费金融领域的努力惨败之后，汇丰的投资者们一想到美国可能就会害怕。然而，汇丰大肆吹嘘的重组计划，却很像美国橄榄球比赛中一种寸土必争的战略，这种战略被形象地叫做“三码之地内尘土飞扬(three-yards-and-a-cloud-of-dust)”。汇丰首席执行官欧智华(Stuart Gulliver)的三年计划如今已过去7个月，尘土滚滚，战斗正酣。 | |

| 【综合】起名的学问 No faux pas in any language 2012-02-27 | |
| Naming a new product after bits of male genitalia is unlikely to get customers snapping it up. But, until Greg Alger intervened, one company came close to calling its new, innovative medical device a name that sounds like “penis head” in French – and the device wasn’t even anything to do with urology.
一种以男性生殖器官命名的新产品，可能不会引起消费者的购买兴趣。但一家企业差点就把它的一种创新性新医疗器械命名成了与“龟头”的法语读音接近的一个词，幸亏格雷格•阿尔热(Greg Alger)及时出手干预。其实，这种器械甚至跟泌尿科都无半点关系。 | |
| 【经济】企业家不是赌徒 Gambler? No, I am a compulsive capitalist 2012-02-27 | |
| Are entrepreneurs really just gamblers at heart? I don’t believe so, but that view reflects my own prejudices. I have never enjoyed playing games of chance for money; when I gamble I prefer to be the house. So rather than bet as a punter, I have owned bookmakers, bingo halls, greyhound tracks and suchlike.
从本质上来说，企业家真的只是赌徒吗？我不这样认为，但这一观点反映了我的个人偏见。我从不喜欢为了钱去玩运气游戏；如果去赌博，我更愿意自己是庄家。因此，我并不作为赌客下注，而是拥有了自己的赌注登记经纪人、宾果游戏厅、赛狗场等等。 | |

| 【经济】西班牙紧缩政策的代价 Spain counts social costs of austerity drive 2012-02-27 | |
