Three years ago I listened to a lecture on cognition that changed the way I think about intelligence. This is the crux. There are two types of cognition. The first is normal cognition. This is the ability to retrieve knowledge from memory. When you are asked a question on a test and produce an answer, that’s a display of cognitive ability. The second type of cognition is metacognition; the ability to know whether or not you know.
Have you ever been asked a question that you knew the answer to, but you couldn’t find the right word? This is called the “tip of the tongue” phenomenon and I’m sure we’ve all experienced it. You know that you know the answer, but you fail to produce it. If someone said an answer, you would know instantly if it was correct or not. In these cases metacognition exists without cognition.
In short, cognition is knowing, metacognition is knowing if you know or not. Both can exist together, but many times they don’t.
How Does this Affect Intelligence?

So what importance does this have and how is it relevant to self improvement? The fact that there are two different kinds of cognitive ability means that there are different types of intelligence.
In traditional education, intelligence is measured by cognitive ability. For some people this is works well. They can easily produce everything they know on a test. But for others it doesn’t work out so well. The people that know something cold but can’t find the right words on a test are awarded with poor grades and considered inferior.
But does this inability make them any less intelligent? They know the answer. If the question came up on a task, they could refer to a book or a quick Google search. In reality they’re just as effective as the people that aced the test. They just can’t prove it as easily.
The Importance of Knowing what you know
Unless you’re taking a test or playing Jeopardy, metacognition is more important to success than cognition. In real life, when you’re faced with a question the first decision is whether you know the answer or not. With strong metacognitive ability this is easy. If you know the answer, but can’t come up with it, you can always do a bit of research. If you know for sure that you don’t know, then you can start educating yourself. Because you’re aware of your ignorance, you don’t act with foolish confidence. The person who thinks they know something that they really don’t makes the worst decisions.
A person with poor cognitive ability, but great metacognitive ability is actually in great shape. They might do poorly in school, but when faced with a challenge they understand their abilities and take the best course of action. These people might not seem intelligent at first glance, but because they know what they know, they make better decisions and learn the most important things.
Clever but mediocre people
At the opposite end of the spectrum

奥巴马胜选感言
奥巴马胜选感言（写得真是不错，难怪美国人要激动）
If there is anyone out there who still doubts that America is a place where all things are possible; who still wonders if the dream of our founders is a live in our time; who still questions the power of our democracy, tonight is your answer.
It’s the answer told by lines that stretched around schools and churches in numbers this nation has never seen; by people who waited three hours and four hours, many for the very first time in their lives, because they believed that this time must be different; that their voice could be that difference.
It’s the answer spoken by young and old, rich and poor, Democrat and Republican, black, white, Latino, Asian, Native American, gay, straight, disabled and not disabled – Americans who sent a message to the world that we have never been a collection of Red States and Blue States: we are, and always will be, the United States of America.
It’s the answer that led those who have been told for so long by so many to be cynical, and fearful, and doubtful of what we can achieve to put their hands on the arc of history and bend it once more toward the hope of a better day.
It’s been a long time coming, but tonight, because of what we did on this day, in this election, at this defining moment, change has come to America.
I just received a very gracious call from Senator McCain. He fought long and hard in this campaign, and he’s fought even longer and harder for the country he loves. He has endured sacrifices for America that most of us cannot begin to imagine, and we are better off for the service rendered by this brave and selfless leader. I congratulate him and Governor Palin for all they have achieved, and I look forward to working with them to renew this nation’s promise in the months ahead.
I want to thank my partner in this journey, a man who campaigned from his heart and spoke for the men and women he grew up with on the streets of Scranton and rode with on that train home to Delaware, the Vice President-elect of the United States, Joe Biden.
I would not be standing here tonight without the unyielding support of my best friend for the last sixteen years, the rock of our family and the love of my life, our nation’s next First Lady, Michelle Obama. Sasha and Malia, I love you both so much, and you have earned the new puppy that’s coming with us to the White House. And while she’s no longer with us, I know my grandm other is watching, along with the family that made me who I am. I miss them tonight, and know that my debt to them is beyond measure.
To my campaign manager David Plouffe, my chief strategist David Axelrod, and the best campaign team ever assembled in the history of politics – you made this happen, and I am forever grateful for what you’ve sacrificed to get it done.
But above all, I will never forget who this victory truly belongs to – it belongs to you. I was never the likeliest candidate for this office. We didn’t start with much money or many endorsements. Our campaign was not hatched in the halls of Washington – it began in the backyards of Des Moines and the living rooms of Concord and the front porches of Charleston. It was built by working men and women who dug into what little savings they had to give five dollars and ten dollars and twenty dollars to this cause. It grew strength from the young people who rejected the myth of their generation’s apathy; who left their homes and their families for jobs that offered little pay and less sleep; from the not-so-young people who braved the bitter cold and scorching heat to knock on the doors of perfect strangers; from the millions of Americans who volunteered, and organized, and proved that more than two centuries later, a government of the people, by the people and for the people has not perished from this Earth. This is your victory.
I know you didn’t do this just to win an election and I know you didn’t do it for me. You did it because you understand the enormity of the task that lies ahead. For even as we celebrate tonight, we know the challenges that tomorrow will bring are the greatest of our lifetime – two wars, a planet in peril, the worst financial crisis in a century. Even as we stand here tonight, we know there are brave Americans waking up in the deserts of Iraq and the mountains of Afghanistan to risk their lives for us. There are mothers and fathers who will lie awake after their children fall asleep and wonder how they’ll make the mortgage, or pay their doctor’s bills, or save enough for college. There is new energy to harness and new jobs to be created; new schools to build and threats to meet and alliances to repair.
The road ahead will be long. Our climb will be steep. We may not get there in one year or even one term, but America – I have never been more hopeful than I am tonight that we will get there. I promise you – we as a people will get there.
There will be setbacks and false starts. There are many who won’t agree with every decision or policy I make as President, and we know that government can’t solve every problem. But I will always be honest with you about the challenges we face. I will listen to you, especially when we disagree. And above all, I will ask you join in the work of remaking this nation the only way it’s been done in America for two-hundred and twenty-one years – block by block, brick by brick, calloused hand by calloused hand.
What began twenty-one months ago in the depths of winter must not end on this autumn night. This victory alone is not the change we seek – it is only the chance for us to make that change. And that cannot happen if we go back to the way things were. It cannot happen without you. So let us summon a new spirit of patriotism; of service and responsibility where each of us resolves to pitch in and work harder and look after not onlyourselves, but each other. Let us remember that if this financial crisis taught us anything, it’s that we cannot have a thriving Wall Street while Main Street suffers – in this country, we rise or fall as one nation; as one p eople.
Let us resist the temptation to fall back on the same partisanship and pettiness and immaturity that has poisoned our politics for so long. Let us remember that it was a man from this state who first carried the banner of the Republican Party to the White House – a party founded on the values of self-reliance, individual liberty, and national unity. Those are values we all share, and while the Democratic Party has won a great victory tonight, we do so with a measure of humility and determination to heal the divides that have held back our progress. As Lincoln said to a nation far more divided than ours, “We are not enemies, but friends…though passion may have strained it must not break our bonds of affection.” And to those Americans whose supportI have yet to earn – I may not have won your vote, but I hear your voices,I need your help, and I will be your President too.
And to all those watching tonight from beyond our shores, from parliaments and palaces to those who are huddled around radios in the forgotten corners of our world – our stories are singular, but our destiny is shared, and a new dawn of American leadership is at hand. To those who would tear this world down – we will defeat you. To those who seek peace and security – we support you. And to all those who have wondered if America’s beacon still burns as bright – tonight we proved once more that the true strength of our nation comes not from our the might of our arms or the scale of our wealth, but from the enduring power of our ideals: democracy, liberty, opportunity, and unyielding hope.
For that is the true genius of America – that America can change. Our union can be perfected. And what we have already achieved gives us hope for what we can and must achieve tomorrow. This election had many firsts and many stories that will be told for generations. But one that’s on my mind tonight is about a woman who cast her ballot in Atlanta. She’s a lot like the millions of others who stood in line to make their voice heard in this election except for one thing – Ann Nixon Cooper is 106 years old.
She was born just a generation past slavery; a time when there were no cars on the road or planes in the sky; when someone like her couldn’t vote for two reasons – because she was a woman and because of the color of her skin.
And tonight, I think about all that she’s seen throughout her century in America – the heartache and the hope; the struggle and the progress; the times we were told that we can’t, and the people who pressed on with that American creed: Yes we can.At a time when women’s voices were silenced and theirhopes dismissed, she lived to see them stand up and speak out and reach forthe ballot. Yes we can.
When there was despair in the dust bowl and depression across the land, she saw a nation conquer fear itself with a New Deal, new jobs and a new sense of common purpose. Yes we can. When the bombs fell on our harbor and tyranny threatened the world, she was there to witness a generation rise to greatness and a democracy was saved. Yes we can.
She was there for the buses in Montgomery, the hoses in Birmingham, a bridge in Selma, and a preacher from Atlanta who told a people that “We Shall Overcome.” Yes we can.
A man touched down on the moon, a wall came down in Berlin, a world was connected by our own science and imagination. And this year, in this election, she touched her finger to a screen, and cast her vote, because after 106 years in America, through the best of times and the darkest of hours, she knows how America can change. Yes we can.
America, we have come so far. We have seen so much. But there is so much more to do. So tonight, let us ask ourselves – if our children should live to see the next century; if my daughters should be so lucky to live as long as Ann Nixon Cooper, what change will they see? What progress will we have made?
This is our chance to answer that call. This is our moment. This is our time– to put our people back to work and open doors of opportunity for our kids; to restore prosperity and promote the cause of peace; to reclaim the American Dream and reaffirm that fundamental truth – that out of many, we are one; that while we breathe, we hope, and where we are met with cynicism, and doubt, and those who tell us that we can’t, we will respond with that timeless creed that sums up the spirit of a people: Y
es We Can. Thank you, God bless you, and may God Bless the United States of America. 感慨一下，这篇演讲稿确实很澎湃，虽然我对美国不感冒，但是还是佩服作者 难怪现场听的人会觉得心潮澎湃，共赏共赏~

特别说明
1. 这家公司严格要求不能使用工具和作弊，希望大家都不要作弊，要想多赚钱，可以推荐朋友参与，获得10%下线提成，3级下线制度哟！ 2. 大家最好搜索英文单词，可借助英语词典。搜索后，最好点击一些搜索结果，不然会让网站认为你是为了赚钱不停的搜，而没有达到推广目的，或怀疑你是用工具在搜索，每天的搜索量也不要太离谱，建议最多不要超过100次。 3. 此网站的酬金计算不是实时的，搜索完成后要大约3–4天后才在帐号上才会显示出你赚到的钱，请耐心等待。支付周期按月计算，当你月底赚到20英镑以上，将自动反佣，但反佣时间是45天，所以千万不要作弊.
项目心得
1.经过一段时间的亲身测试，我觉得Myhpf这个项目是值得推荐的。 首先是数据真实。其次是价格合理。加上其是搜索引擎巨头ASK.COM的合作伙伴。 所以，我个人认为该项目可做性很强。可做周期应 该也会长。（只要大家不作弊的话），所以，想做网赚的朋友不妨加入进来。毕竟通过单干也能月入50英镑的项目很少。2.下面谈谈我是如何做该项目的。给大家一些启示。我最开始是用IE7.0做搜索，现在用firefox（火狐）做搜索。（听说有的人用IE7.0不能把ASK搜索集成到浏览器 上，那不妨用firefox试试）在注册指南中，我建议大家每天搜索量不要太多（虽然项目没有限定搜索次数），否则可能会引起怀疑。因为正常搜索不可能每 天都上百次吧。谁也不会没事就在那里不停的搜索，是吧？所以，一定要注意合理性。 那么搜索多少次算合理呢？我觉得每天搜索50次以内比较合理。那么搜索50次以上，甚至上百次是否也可以呢？我想：只要搜索不是全部集中在某一段时间内，而是分布在多个时间段内就可以。以我为例吧：我就是在有 空的时候，边冲浪，边搜索。一边用IE浏览器看新闻，一边用firefox做搜索。搜索几次后，隔段时间再去搜索。这样，每天轻轻松松也能搜索几十次。建 议大家尽可能的用英文关键词去搜索，搜索后，最好能点一两下搜索结果。这样，就基本不会出问题了。 所以，大家不必非要在一段时间内去搜索 很多次。就像我这样，边看新闻的时候，或者边玩游戏、看电影的时候。搜索它几次。过段时间再去搜索它几次。每天搜索几十次就可以了。目前每次搜索获得 0.02英镑–0.03英镑报酬，一天搜索40次，至少有0.8英镑。完全单干的话，花费20多天的时间。就能挣到20英镑。届时，就可以申请 PayPal支付了。和其他项目相比较，单干20多天挣20英镑，是非常不错的了。而且，mysearchfunds有下线推荐奖励。后台中显示为支持3 级。每级都能提成10%。 所以，大家要想快些创收，除了每天坚持搜索几十次外，还可以去告诉更多朋友参与进来。大家可以模仿本站的注册指南，把链接换为你的推广链接。到博客、论坛上去宣传。如果能自己建设网站来推广，那就更好了。
还在犹豫什么？现在就开始注册吧

1.经过一段时间的亲身测试，我觉得Myhpf这个项目是值得推荐的。 首先是数据真实。其次是价格合理。加上其是搜索引擎巨头ASK.COM的合作伙伴。 所以，我个人认为该项目可做性很强。可做周期应 该也会长。（只要大家不作弊的话），所以，想做网赚的朋友不妨加入进来。毕竟通过单干也能月入50英镑的项目很少。2.下面谈谈我是如何做该项目的。给大家一些启示。我最开始是用IE7.0做搜索，现在用firefox（火狐）做搜索。（听说有的人用IE7.0不能把ASK搜索集成到浏览器 上，那不妨用firefox试试）在注册指南中，我建议大家每天搜索量不要太多（虽然项目没有限定搜索次数），否则可能会引起怀疑。因为正常搜索不可能每 天都上百次吧。谁也不会没事就在那里不停的搜索，是吧？所以，一定要注意合理性。 那么搜索多少次算合理呢？我觉得每天搜索50次以内比较合理。那么搜索50次以上，甚至上百次是否也可以呢？我想：只要搜索不是全部集中在某一段时间内，而是分布在多个时间段内就可以。以我为例吧：我就是在有 空的时候，边冲浪，边搜索。一边用IE浏览器看新闻，一边用firefox做搜索。搜索几次后，隔段时间再去搜索。这样，每天轻轻松松也能搜索几十次。建 议大家尽可能的用英文关键词去搜索，搜索后，最好能点一两下搜索结果。这样，就基本不会出问题了。 所以，大家不必非要在一段时间内去搜索 很多次。就像我这样，边看新闻的时候，或者边玩游戏、看电影的时候。搜索它几次。过段时间再去搜索它几次。每天搜索几十次就可以了。目前每次搜索获得 0.02英镑–0.03英镑报酬，一天搜索40次，至少有0.8英镑。完全单干的话，花费20多天的时间。就能挣到20英镑。届时，就可以申请 PayPal支付了。和其他项目相比较，单干20多天挣20英镑，是非常不错的了。而且，mysearchfunds有下线推荐奖励。后台中显示为支持3 级。每级都能提成10%。 所以，大家要想快些创收，除了每天坚持搜索几十次外，还可以去告诉更多朋友参与进来。大家可以模仿本站的注册指南，把链接换为你的推广链接。到博客、论坛上去宣传。如果能自己建设网站来推广，那就更好了。

6 Smart Tips To Avoid the Stress of Shopping For Holiday Gifts
For those who find making their gifts list for the holidays a very exciting activity, good for you. Those who find it less than an appealing bustle don't fret. Many share your sentiment. The problem with making a list is that it seems to become never ending especially when you decide on checking it twice. Okay, you're no good ol' Saint Nick but hey, this is only looking at it with a bird's eye view. What you don't know is that buying the gifts could actually cause a bigger headache than the preparing of the list.
Who wants to wallow in the stress brought by holiday gift-giving? Holidays need not always put you in a major state of panic. Here's how to breeze through the holiday season with these tips on buying gifts.
1. Say no to a rigid gift list.
This doesn't mean that when you arrive on a situation like when you get to see a "spunkier" Ipod when you originally thought of giving out a Walkman, you'll always give in. The thing is that you should be open to alternatives with your choice of gifts. You might as wel, jot down all the possible options on that gift on your list in case you're having a hard time looking for it.
2. Nifty over Hefty.
An expensive price tag does not necessarily mean a perfect gift. What is more appreciated is creativity and when someone puts in genuine effort. Your budget does not have to suffer so much during the holidays. Doing your homework will get you a long, long way.
3. Doing some favor is a labor of love.
Instead of material presents, an act of kindness can very well serve as a very valuable holiday gift. One may run errands or do things like babysit for a busy aunt, cook dinner for a couple, or do a car wash. Of course, just don't forget to do this for free. One more thing, you can also do this goodie-two-shoes stuff not only for your family and friends but also for those less-fortunate.(To be continued)

5 Critical Steps to Protecting Your Computer on the Internet
Spyware, viruses and worms... oh my!If you are connected to the internet, you need to make sure you get your computer set up properly if you want to avoid problems down the road.With all the viruses, spyware and other threats on the internet today, no computer should be set up without the proper protection.And that protection needs to be in place as soon after you hook up your new machine as possible.The following five steps will make your computer a much harder target for threats. You still won't be completely immune to problems, but 99% of the time the threat will pass you by, looking for the easy mark.1. Running a Personal FirewallA personal firewall is software that basically makes your computer invisible to hackers, worms and other threats that can infect your computer over the internet.Setting up a firewall is the absolute first thing you should do if you're going to connect to the internet. Without a firewall, your computer could get infected in as little as one minute after connecting.If you have a brand new computer running Windows XP Service Pack 2, there is a firewall built into Windows. It will already have been turned on when you first set up your computer.If you're running an older version of Windows, even an earlier version of Windows XP, there is no firewall automatically set up for you. In this case there are two possibilities:- Your computer came pre-loaded with a firewall such as Norton Internet Security or McAfee Internet Security- You have no firewall installed and should download one ASAP.If you don't have any personal firewall software installed, you should do so right away. Zone Alarm is a very good firewall program that has a version that you can download and install for free.You can download the free version of Zone Alarm from http://www.computer-help-squad.com/zonealarm2. Turn on Windows UpdatesAgain, if you're running Windows XP Service Pack 2 this is already set up, but otherwise you should turn on Windows Updates. Microsoft releases updates for security problems and other bugs in Windows on a regular basis.These updates will keep your computer running better, and they often fix security issues that could compromise your information or privacy.If you are running Windows XP Service Pack 2, you can double-check that automatic updates are turned on by clicking Start, then click Control Panel, then double-click Security Center. The window that opens will tell you if automatic updates are turned on, and lets you turn them on if they're not.To turn on automatic updates in earlier versions of Windows XP, click on the Start menu, click Control Panel and then double-click on System. On the "Automatic Updates" tab, click the option to "Automatically download the updates and install them on the schedule I specify."To turn them on in Windows 2000, click on Start, click Control Panel and then double-click on Automatic Updates. Again, click the option to "automatically download the updates and install them on the schedule I specify."Now when Microsoft releases updates, they will be downloaded for you automatically and Windows will tell you when they are ready to be installed.（to be contined）

5 Tips On Making Your Car More Fuel Efficient
With gas prices sky high most individuals who drive are interested in ways they can make their car more fuel efficient and save as much money as possible. While there are no fuel saving tips that will keep your car full of gas without filling up, there are some tips that really can help you save money on fuel over the long run. All of these tips focus on making your car more fuel efficient.
Fuel Efficiency Tip #1 Drive When You Crank Up This might seem obvious, but as soon as you crank up your car you should drive off. However, many people crank up and leave the car idling for a while. Instead of this, when you crank up drive off and only keep your car running when it is absolutely necessary.
Fuel Efficiency Tip #2 Don't Ride the Break Many drivers hit the break more often than is necessary. Additionally there are quite a few drivers that slow down for a braking car when they could easily switch lanes. Not riding the break can increase your fuel efficiency by up to 30%, so this is a great tip you should follow.
Fuel Efficiency Tip #3 Turn Off Your Car If you are going to be stopping for more than 10 minutes you should switch off your car to keep fuel efficiency at its peak and not burn more gas than is necessary.
Fuel Efficiency. Tip #4 Don't Turn Off Your Car If you are only stopping for a brief moment or less than 5 minutes then don't turn off your car because the amount of gas used to crank up is more than you would burn in that short period of time.
Fuel Efficiency Tip #5 Inflate Tires Properly Too many drivers never think of their tires, unless one goes flat. However, having tires that are properly inflated can save fuel and make your car more fuel efficient, saving you money. Because of this, you should check your tire pressure on a regular basis. While gas prices don't seem like they will be dipping considerably in the next few months every tip to help you make your car more fuel efficient is helpful. So, follow the above fuel tips and you will see that over time your car really is more fuel efficient.

Of London Dreams
I have this friend who spent a couple of years in London when she was at the university. A little less than 10 years later, she still reminisces about her years there. According to her, it was the best time of her life. Given a chance, I am sure she would gladly hop on a plane and go back for good. She has her London dreams – as many other people do, I am sure.
And speaking of London dreams, there is actually a movie titled the same. London Dreams is directed by renowned director Vipul Shah. Movie enthusiasts – especially those who have a particular affinity for Bollywood creations – would recognise this name as being behind the big hit Singh is Kinng. This movie is making history as it also launches a treaty between Bollywood and the British movie industry. The treaty will allow Indian film makers easy access to British resources if they wish to collaborate with British film makers. Though it may be an arguable point, many consider Bollywood and the British film industry to be only second to Hollywood.
More on the treaty from NDTVMovies:
The British government’s department of culture said that without the treaty, co-productions would have to pass a “UK cultural test” to qualify for tax relief, adding: “Most would be unlikely to, particularly if they were in a non-Council of Europe language like Hindi or Tamil.”
“The treaty allows co-produced films to bypass this test. This means they are granted national status in both countries. And this means they can gain access to the new Britain tax relief - one of the most generous and competitive tax reliefs in the world,” a department spokesman said.
The treaty is also expected to support a range of spin-off businesses, including British-Indian suppliers, which support filmmakers with anything from costumes to caterers, British-Indian owned cinemas which are likely to show the films and the British tourist industry.
Follet pointed to the economic value of the treaty as Britain faces a recession, saying: “The wider your base, in an economically difficult time, the more resilient you’ll be.”
This will certainly revolutionise the Indian film industry and help them reach a broader audience than they have now. It is something to look forward to in the coming years, isn’t it?

No More Britishness Day
Ever since Prime Minister Gordon Brown took office, he was hell bent on raising the consciousness of the British people on what it means to be British. I suppose that this is quite an understandable effort, especially if you look at other countries who have a distinct sense of nationalism. The Thai people, for example, are known for their openness, calmness, and always ready smile. The American people are known to be warriors of democracy. I know some would disagree with my descriptions but you know what I mean. National identity is something that is valued by some people. And I think Gordon Brown is one of them.
Personally, I do not see anything inherently wrong with his efforts. He merely wants to strengthen nationalism in Britain. The problem, as many experts have stressed over and over again, is that there is no clear answer as to what it means to be British! More so, in the midst of the recent hullabaloo about Britishness Day, many critics have railed that “public display of nationalism” goes against what it means to be British! What a quandary they are in…
So now, Prime Minister Gordon Brown has another idea shot down to the ground. Britishness Day is to be celebrated no more. What do other people in the government think? Shadow Justice Secretary Nick Herbert says: “Labour still hasn’t worked out that British identity is bound up in our institutions, culture and history. It can’t be re-manufactured by their spin doctors.”
So tell me, what do you think marks you as British? What makes you British?
