Just pop this dino’s head off, fill it with your favorite tea leaves, then recapitate it and steep to your heart’s content.

One day I saw my dad trading on eTrade. It looked interesting so I wanted to do it. I had always saved my allowance money and birthday money, and the first thing I bought was Apple stock -- when shares were only $100. In addition to Apple, I've also invested in other stocks like Google, Microsoft and Rim.
I have some money in a savings account, too. But most of the money I plan to use for retirement is invested in stocks.
This January, the New York Stock Exchange was sponsoring a competition where the challenge was to create something to teach other kids how to save and invest.
I decided to make an iPhone app called Oink-a-Saurus targeted at kids and teens who want to learn ways to save money, and I ended up winning first place.
The current generation cannot rely on Social Security, so we have to save for our own retirement and can't depend on that.
When I was 7 years old, I asked my mom, who would actually pay for the trophies and how much they cost.
When she said they were $10 apiece and parents paid for their child's trophy, I asked if I could keep the $10 to save in a bank account instead of receiving the trophy.
I'm not that scared about investing most of it in stocks, because when you're a kid it's not that big of a deal if you lose a little money -- you still have time to get it back.

---------- 原稿 ----------- Male model fronts campaign for push-up bras
While most lingerie brands would usually pick a buxom lady to model their latest underwear collections, Dutch department store Hema have opted for a more unconventional choice.
Male model Andrej Pejic fronts the campaign for the ‘Mega Push-Up Bra’ from Hema that promises to ‘add two cup sizes’.
The company’s decision to have a man front the campaign appears to have paid off visibly enhanced by their ‘boosting’ bra.
The images, featuring Pejic wearing the bra under two different dresses were released on 13 December and quickly became a trending topic on Twitter in the Netherlands in a matter of hours.
“If a man looks good in that bra, it must be good stuff.”
