Festina lente

This is a Latin sentence which means "hurry up (make haste) slowly". (A favorite, paradoxical saying of Augustus, Rome's first emperor, who reigned 31 B.C. to A.D. 14; the Romans were fond of such epigrammatic statements.)

What does it mean or what is the culture back ground?

It's *** that I can't search the item through BAIDU search engine. GOOGLE is a splendid search engine, but we use Google.hk which is unsteady in Chinese mainland because its server is in Hongkong . So BAIDU the indigenous one is more convenient and it can find most of the information that can be found through the Google. Actually, the main reason is the firewall so that Wiki couldn't be used some

Oh, I see. If you do have the option to access wikis, you can just search things directly on the Wikipedia site. Usually when you google things, Wikipedia articles come up as the first option anyway. Were you able to click through the link I posted?
