The Story of Bill Gates - a Rich Man

太晚睡覺等於自殺

http://gian3211.blogspot.com/2011/09/blog-post_02.html
在網上讀到一篇有關晚睡的資訊,想跟大家分享:

晚上9-11點為免疫系統(淋巴)排毒時間,此段時間應安靜或聽音樂

晚間11-凌晨1點,肝的排毒,需在熟睡中進行。

凌晨1-3點,膽的排毒,亦同。

凌晨3-5點,肺的排毒。此即為何咳嗽的人在這段時間咳得最劇烈, 因排毒動作已走到肺;不應用止咳藥,以免抑制廢積物的排除。

凌晨5-7點,大腸的排毒,應上廁所排便。

早上7-9點,小腸大量吸收營養的時段,應吃早餐。

療病者最好早吃,在6點半前,養生者在7點半前, 不吃早餐者應改變習慣,即使拖到9、10點吃都比不吃好。

半夜至凌晨4點為脊椎造血時段,必須熟睡,不宜熬夜。

附:人體24小時使用手冊

1︰00 人體進入淺睡階段,易醒。此時頭腦較清楚,熬夜者想睡反而睡不著。

2︰00 絕大多數器官處於一天中工作最慢的狀態,肝臟卻在緊張工作,生血氣為人體排毒。

3︰00 進入深度睡眠階段,肌肉完全放鬆。

4︰00 「黎明前的黑暗」時刻,老年人最易發生意外。血壓處於一天中最低值,糖尿病病人易出現低血糖,心腦血管患者易發生心梗等。

5︰00 陽氣逐漸昇華,精神狀態飽滿。

6︰00 血壓開始升高,心跳逐漸加快。高血壓患者得吃降壓藥了。

7︰00 人體免疫力最強。吃完早飯,營養逐漸被人體吸收。

8︰00 各項生理激素分泌旺盛,開始進入工作狀態。

9︰00 適合打針、手術、做體檢等。此時人體氣血活躍,大腦皮層興奮,痛感降低。

10︰00 工作效率最高。

10︰00-11︰00屬於人體的第一個黃金時段。心臟充分發揮其功能,精力充沛,不會感到疲勞。

12︰00 緊張工作一上午後,需要休息。

12︰00-13︰00是最佳"子午覺"時間。不宜疲勞作戰,最好躺著休息半小時至一小時。

14︰00 反應遲鈍。易有昏昏欲睡之感,人體應激能力降低。

15︰00 午飯營養吸收後逐漸被輸送到全身,工作能力開始恢復。

15︰00-17︰00為人體第二個黃金時段。最適宜開會、公關、接待重要客人。

16︰00 血糖開始升高,有虛火者此時表現明顯。陽虛、肺結核等患者的臉部最紅。

17︰00 工作效率達到午後時間的最高值,也適宜進行體育鍛鍊。

18︰00 人體敏感度下降,痛覺隨之再度降低。

19︰00 最易發生爭吵。此時是人體血壓波動的晚高峰,人們的情緒最不穩定。

20︰00 人體進入第三個黃金階段。記憶力最強,大腦反應異常迅速。

20︰00-21︰00適合做作業、閱讀、創作、鍛鍊等。

22︰00 適合梳洗。呼吸開始減慢,體溫逐漸下降。最好在十點半泡腳後上床,能很快入睡。

23︰00 陽氣微弱,人體功能下降,開始逐漸進入深度睡眠,一天的疲勞開始緩解。

24︰00 氣血處於一天中的最低值,除了休息,不宜進行任何活動。

看完請傳遞此訊息給你身邊關心的人。

11 Coisas Que a Escola Não Ensina - Bill Gates



The 11 advices from Bill Gates to the graduates

 
Rule 1: Life is not fair - get used to it.

Rule 2: The world won't care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself.

Rule 3: You will NOT make $40,000 a year right out of high school. You won't be a vice-president with a car phone until you earn both.

Rule 4: If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss.

Rule 5: Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your grandparents had a different word for burger flipping-they called it opportunity.

Rule 6: If you mess up, it's not your parents' fault, so don't whine about your mistakes, learn from them.

Rule 7: Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you are. So before you save the rainforest from the parasites of your parents' generation, try delousing the closet in your own room.

Rule 8: Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life has not. In some schools, they have abolished failing grades and they'll give you as many times as you want to get the right answer. This doesn't bear the slightest resemblance to ANYTHING in real life.

Rule 9: Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you find yourself. Do that on your own time.

Rule 10: Television is NOT real life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs.

Rule 11: Be nice to nerds. Chances are you'll end up working for one.

A love letter from Steve Jobs

We didn't know much about each other twenty years ago.
We were guided by our intuition; you swept me off my feet.
It was snowing when we got married at the Ahwahnee.
Years passed, kids came, good times, hard times,
but never bad times.
Our love and respect has endured and grown.
We've been through so much together and here we are right back
where we started 20 years ago -- older and wiser --
 with wrinkles on our faces and hearts.
We now know many of life's joys, sufferings, secrets and wonders
and we're still here together.
My feet have never returned to the ground.

20年前,我们相遇,彼此陌生,
但我们一见钟情坠入爱河。

阿凡尼的漫天雪花见证了我们的海誓山盟。
岁月流逝,儿女长大,
有过甜蜜,有过艰辛,
但从无苦涩。
我们的爱意历久弥新。

携手与你相伴走过漫漫人生。
20年后,你我虽已苍老但更加睿智,
任皱纹爬上面容,任沧桑布满心间。

但我们的生活充满快乐欢欣与奇妙。
我们结伴前行,你让我飞翔在爱的天空里,
不愿落下。

雙語金句﹕蓋茨:財富太多 漢堡包仍是漢堡包

Bill Gates:

"I can understand wanting to have millions of dollars. There's a certain freedom, meaningful freedom, that comes with that. But once you get much beyond that, I have to tell you, it's the same hamburger."

「我明白對擁有百萬計美元的欲求。這無疑會帶來一定的自由、有意義的自由。然而一旦當你擁有的遠超於此,我有需要告訴你,漢堡包仍然是一個漢堡包。」

Song - Amazed



Artist: Lonestar Lyrics

Every time our eyes meet
This feeling inside me
Is almost more than I can take
Baby when you touch me
I can feel how much you love me
And it just blows me away
I've never been this close to anyone or anything
I can hear your thoughts
I can see your dreams

I don't know how you do what you do
I'm so in love with you
It just keeps getting better
I want to spend the rest of my life
With you by my side
Forever and ever
Every little thing that you do
Baby, I'm amazed by you

The smell of your skin
The taste of your kiss
The way you whisper in the dark
Your hair all around me
Baby you surround me
You touch every place in my heart
Oh, it feels like the first time, every time
I want to spend the whole night in your eyes

Every little thing that you do
I'm so in love with you
It just keeps getting better
I want to spend the rest of my life
With you by my side
Forever and ever
Every little thing that you do
Baby, I'm amazed by you

33 of Life’s Most Powerful Lessons

http://www.illuminatedmind.net/2008/03/22/33-of-lifes-most-powerful-lessons-pt-2/

PART 1:
  1. Often those who aren’t the easiest to love are the ones who need it the most.
  2. Seeing children play can make even the bluest day brighter.

  4. The secret to happiness is the acceptance of yourself.
  5. Happiness is not based on external status, it is an internal state.

  7. Every man has a right to choose his own destiny.
  8. The path is the way.
  9. Coming is going, going is coming.
  10. The hardest is found in the easiest.
  11. Heaven and hell exist here and now, within your own mind.
  12. Life is the largest stage.
  13. Music is one of the most supreme expressions of life. It is art in it’s most transitory form. It is gone within an instant, and therefore, extremely precious.

  24. The truth shall indeed set you free.
  25. Lies only exist if we believe in them.

L.A. Cicero

廚房

認識亞鎮,
他真的是非常勤力及不停的工作,
沒見他休息.

問他在廚房做了多久,
他說六年,
但是他說他亦很想轉行,
因實在是很辛苦,
整天都是站著,
由八點至下午六點,
很多時要加班,
至晚上十時,
而翌日仍要照常上班.

在廚房內工作,
溫度奇高,
且很易出意外,
故要非常小心,
鋒利的刀,
熱燙的油,
濕滑的地,
超猛的爐火,
體積大且重的容器,
另加上食物的重量,
少一點氣力也不行.

問他福利如何,
他說也可,
原來職業真是一個等價交換.

與大廚B 交談,
他不時向我解釋一個大廚的理念,
很高興從他們身上學東西.

最後,
最令我開心的是,
給我發現,
此廚房有一規則,
就是不准用味精(MSG)/雞粉.
So good,
I like it !!

A taste of Cajú

This afternoon,Chef of Brazil treated us with cajú juice.

At the beginning,
by seeing the color of the juice,
I though he has made the iced lemon juice,
it was not sour nor very sweet,
the color was in yellow,
the drink was very fresh and delighted and all of us liked it very much,
he kept on explaining to us that we could add sugar if we wanted to be sweeter,
but I think it was pretty good,
not too sweet.

It should be my first time to try this kind of fruit juice -
a flavour of Brazil,
being far away from that country;
besides, in Macau,
we can not find this fruit at all.

Was very curious of this fruit,
and asked for the name,
Chef of Guinea and Chef of Goa explained to me that the nuts are called cashew nuts.
and in their home countries,
they also use Cajú to make wine,
I was really lost,
how come the fruit of cashew tree can be so different.
Back home,
checked with Internet,
it is really the cashew fruit juice,
flavours of Brazil,
so nice!

Song - 相處之道 (誰家灶頭無煙火主題曲 Theme song -Be home for dinner)

歌手:曾路得


幾多幾多次聚餐 我與你爭吵已慣
火花點起太礙眼 你責怪我不轉彎
雙方望著但事實也口硬 而怒氣似未散
不過學習盛怒用愛沖淡 情深 不減
彼此相處鬥氣也許少不免 還是愛你像昨天
怎麼相處也要靠雙方改變 磨合再去為你改變
愛能讓我們為愛人奉獻 也能讓我們用愛做美點

我們人生的路才可以平坦康莊!

Diamond Ring

Heard this story from an elderly:

The old man got retired for long time,
though he is not rich,
he has his retirement fund,
and he usually lives in a moral standard.

He has a younger cousin,
who is rich enough,
that she always dresses up nicely,
and hangs around with the upper class people.

The two didn't meet nor contact each other for many years.

In one banquet,
two eventually met,
the old man was very happy to greet his cousin.

By the time they were holding hands,
his cousin told him loudly,
"Be careful, don't hold hard, my diamond ring is very expensive!!

Editorial Policy cheques明報社評 2011.10.26﹕唐梁勿亂開施政支票 防墮小圈子選舉陷阱i

【明報專訊】HENRY TANG and Leung Chun-ying have resigned their public offices so that they can consider whether to stand for Chief Executive (CE) and prepare for their electioneering. They have busied themselves with going to various districts, attending forums and talking about their ideas and policy directions. When they mention specific policies, they seem intent on endearing themselves to certain groups.

Candidates have to make political pledges to drum up support. However, only the 1,200 Election Committee members will have the vote. It is certainly wrong for any CE aspirant to make "policy cheques" out to Election Committee members in exchange for their support.

凱琳加油!

(星島日報報道)還記得何凱琳嗎?二○○七年她只有十四歲,會考九優一良,破格獲中文大學醫學院跳級取錄,成為最年輕的醫科生,引發城中討論資優熱潮。最近傳媒報道,凱琳沒有如期完成實習,並於上月起轉讀中大心理學系一年級。

神童轉系的決定是個謎。中大消息人士說,凱琳實習期間,發現自己志不在醫,反而對心理學興趣愈來愈濃厚,萌生轉系念頭。

Through our eyes

Yesterday,
watched a TV program about Cecilia Cheung,
she was interviewed by one artiest about her latest life.
I think she has very high EQ,
as she said that in her eyes,
she only sees the best side of everything,
thus in her world,
everything is beautiful and nice,
she would not blame anyone nor she has enemies,
I think this is the philosophy of forgive and forget.

Then,
saw a video of my colleague F,
who got married on last Saturday.

The video is so beautiful,
and it resumed the most beautiful parts of the wedding ceremony,
I think it is a very good memory and nice record for two persons entering into a new journey.

Life should be like this,
we should see the good things,
and memorize the good things,
for the bad things,
we should forgive and forget,
don't look back,
then,
our life will be easier, better, and nicer!!

In the Kitchen

Life is like preparing a big festival meal in the kitchen.

When the chef wishes to get his work well done, he must have his tools sharpened first.

One minute on the stage and ten years of practice off the stage.

The food on the table usually takes a lot of preparation work by the patient chefs!

A master chef doesn't work alone, he also stimulates team spirit for all the buddies.

A master chef is the one who can make a delicious dish, no matter what kinds of ingredients in hand.

A master chef targets to make healthy and delicious food on time to the table!

A master chef has two different chef uniforms - one for the kitchen and one for the restaurant!

Same food/materials or ingredients used by different chefs came from different countries or cultural backgrounds, the dishes could be very different in colors, smells, tastes and presentation.

A master chef is not a mathematician or economist, but he or she should know the quantity and the ratio of all the materials and ingredients, the costing of the food, the preparation time and the cooking time!

A master chef is happy to share with you his recipes.

 I am glad that I got the chance to meet several master chefs coming from different countries and learned from them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

又不想吃熱熱的甜品放在外賣碗上,
所以作罷.

未吃已真有健康滋潤的感覺,
又看見賣相美麗的芝麻卷,
當下買了一盒回家品嚐,
雖接近午餐時份,
回家即時忍不了,
速速的拿來吃,
不太甜,
滑滑的,
心內已有滋潤的感覺,
原來食物的名稱及功能也是一個享受的要素,
健康的食品,
給愛吃的人,
那種感覺,
真好!

玄參  1兩
生地  1兩
麥冬  1兩
淮山 2兩

Holiday mood

life is so beautiful!

If you had to choose between (1) killing one person to save the lives of five others and (2) doing nothing even though you knew that five people would die right before your eyes if you did nothing—what would you do? What would be the right thing to do? Thats the hypothetical scenario Professor Michael Sandel uses to launch his course on moral reasoning. After the majority of students votes for killing the one person in order to save the lives of five others, Sandel presents three similar moral conundrums—each one artfully designed to make the decision more difficult. As students stand up to defend their conflicting choices, it becomes clear that the assumptions behind our moral reasoning are often contradictory, and the question of what is right and what is wrong is not always black and white.

31 Life Lessons

By Tina Su
“Waking up this morning, I smile.
Twenty-four brand new hours are before me.
I vow to live fully in each moment …”
~Thich Nhat Hanh

31 Life Lessons

1. It’s okay to make mistakes. Mistakes and failures are there to teach us. If we learn from them and correct the way on our path, better things will result from it.

2. We create our own reality. We have the power to break mental patterns that no longer serve us, and we have the power to consciously choose thoughts that empower us. It’s only a matter of breaking old habits and creating new ones.

3. Finding validation and seeking love from another person through relationships is a self-destructive path. Those types of relationships never last, and when they end, they burn in heartache. You must love and respect yourself first. When you wholeheartedly love who you are, the world will fall in love with you, and the right relationship will fall into place. Until I fully accept, love and respect myself, I will continue to attract those relationships rooted in fear, insecurities and disempowerment.

4. A few moments of silence each day will broaden your horizon, strengthen your self-awareness, and heighten your inner clarity. With clarity, you can do anything.

5. You will never be ready for what you want to do. The trick is to just start it anyway, and to develop the discipline to work at it consistently. Taking baby steps in the direction you want to go means that you will eventually get there.

6. Life is short. Live it the way that will make you happy.

7. Change creates resistance. We don’t like change and we will always gravitate towards what is familiar because familiarity keeps us feeling safe. But sometimes, change is good for us. In fact, change is inevitable. Change is the only thing that is for certain. Embrace change.

8. Don’t be afraid to dream. Dreams create the vision that governs the story of our lives. Our dreams create our future. Dream big. Remember #6, life is short.

9. Money is a renewable resource. If you lose some money, don’t sweat it. You can always make more. However, if you spend valuable time stressing over money, or lost opportunity, you’ll never get that time back. Time is more valuable than money.

10. Fear comes from uncertainty of the unknown. It happens to all of us. It is part of the natural mechanisms for our survival. Its job is to keep us safe. You can never suppress fear, nor ignore fear, nor cure fear. The trick is to fully embrace fear by simply acting despite the feeling of fear. When you’ve fully faced fear and experienced it, the fear will subside.

11. Self-doubt, like fear, seeks everyone. You are no exception. Just do it anyway.

12. Time is the most important resource in the world. It is the only non-renewable resource in your life. Choose wisely how you spend time, and with whom you spend it.

13. Less is more. Say less, listen more. Own less things, and you’ll experience more freedom.

14. The people with whom you spend time matter. They influence you in unconscious ways, both positive and negative. Your income is the average of the three people with whom you spend the most time. Your potential to achieve greatness can be limited by the negative influence of the opinions of the people around you. Similarly, if all your friends were living self-empowered and awesome lives, wouldn’t that rub off on you to live extraordinarily? Choose your friends carefully.

15. We really don’t need very much (stuff) to be happy.

16. The most important thing we can do is to love ourselves. By making self-love a priority, everyone and everything we care about will be better because of it. We become better parents, employees, lovers, friends and contributing members of society.

17. Learn to let go. Surrender to what is happening right now. Fully embrace and experience this moment, regardless of what this moment holds. Like all moments, this moment too shall pass.

18. People are really kind and helpful if you give them a chance. Be open to receiving without feeling the need to “pay them back.” Let others know what they’ve provided for you, and how much you appreciate their help. Fully receiving what someone else has to offer is a gift in itself.

19. We are stronger and more resilient than we think we are.

20. The most damaging influence in our lives is the limiting beliefs we hold about ourselves. It’s the unexamined limiting beliefs that cause us to sabotage our success, sell ourselves short, and limit our own potential to living extraordinary lives. If you are not achieving the kinds of results you want in your life, sit down with a journal and examine your beliefs.

21. Complaining, criticizing and gossiping is a waste of time and saps your energy.

22. Being a victim is a lot easier than being a leader. Leaders take responsibility and own up to their part in the doing. Leaders take action to change themselves and to overcome setbacks. Victims refuse to take responsibility for their own actions and emotions. Victims would rather sit back passively and give their power away by placing blame on an external trigger. Be the leader of your life. You are the only one capable of the job. Take responsibility of your own emotions. The world needs more leaders.

23. Forgiving someone is a lot easier than we think. When we forgive, we are setting ourselves free. Forgiveness is not about other people; it’s about letting the pain go in our own minds.

24. It’s easy to find fault in others–much easier than seeing fault in ourselves. How we view the world is a reflection of how we view ourselves, and this gives us insight to our internal thought patterns. Next time you catch yourself complaining about some fault in others, ask yourself, “What is it about myself, in relation to this topic, that I don’t like?”

25. Naps are good. It’s okay to sleep in, sometimes. We need rest to recharge. Staying up late into the night is bad for our bodies, and we pay the price with our health.

26. There is always a silent and graceful solution to every problem. When feeling nervous, stressed or anxious, stop everything and take three deep breaths. Or better yet, close your eyes, and focus on your breathing. Try the mantra “I am safe. All is well.”

27. Master creations in the arts (writing, drawing, music, dance, even software programming) are the result of someone’s love of the process of creation. Masterpieces are never created as a result of someone trying to be brilliant. Get out of your head and get into your heart. Stop overthinking! Just relax, start creating and fall into the flow. Focus on what you are doing without being concerned with what other people will think. Create for the sake of creation. Create out of love of the process, and you just might find that your resulting creation turns out to be a masterpiece.

28. When you passionately and genuinely believe in something, it will change you. You will embody the energy of your passion, and the world will notice the light that you shine. When you believe in yourself, others will believe in you, too.

29. Learn to say no. If you don’t want to do something—go to a party, accept an obligation, meet someone—just say “no, thank you.” You don’t owe anyone an excuse or explanation.

30. Giving unsolicited advice to others—regardless of how much you feel that they need it—is a waste of time and energy. Unless your advice was specifically requested, what you say will not be heard or appreciated. Unsolicited advice is perceived as annoying. Don’t do it.

31. Slowing down to self-reflect, to contemplate, to sit quietly, to journal, to breathe, or to clear your mind will actually make you more productive than if you worked until you collapsed. Slowing down has more benefits than just a clear mind; one side effect is a happier life.

Bonus Life Lessons

1. People will not change no matter how badly you want them to. People will only change if they want to. Instead of trying to change others, change yourself. Change your perception about the person, and allow them to be themselves, without you trying to change them.

2. We are not alone. No matter how bizarre or embarrassed or pathetic we feel about our own situation, there will be others out there experiencing the same emotions. When you hear yourself say “I am all alone,” it is your mind trying to sell you a lie so you will continue to feel sorry for yourself.

3. We are the only ones who can solve our own problems. We are the only ones who can change ourselves. We are the only ones who can choose to see the good, to see hope, to pick ourselves up, and to accept help. We must rely upon and trust ourselves.

4. My body knows what I need. Sometimes, I get sick because my body is trying to get my attention. Its message is usually something like this: relax, recharge, you’re working too much, drink water, exercise and get more sleep. When I get sick, I listen to my body’s messages and I heal.

5. Watch my language. The words I use to describe my experiences carry with it more power than I can consciously fathom. Saying that “I Can’t” do something has a profound effect on my beliefs about what is possible. It can limit my potential or empower me with possibilities. Choose your words carefully.

6. Help other people get what they want. You will be rewarded not only financially, but also with the priceless reward of fulfillment.

7. Trying to be right is a waste of time and energy. I would rather be happy than right.

8. Drink lots of water.

9. When you want something and you ask for it, you will more likely get it. Don’t be afraid to ask.

10. Within each of us lies a vast well of wisdom. It is a source within the depth of our soul which connects to infinite intelligence and the capacity to heal all our wounds. To access this source and to hear its messages, we must slow down, quiet our minds and go within. Only in the stillness of our being can we recognize the soft ripples of our inner voice and intuition. Learn to trust it. It is always right.

We’ve come a long way. I am thankful.
I smiled back and said, “Let’s do that! That’s a great idea.”

Here’s to a year (and a life time) dedicated to happiness–where we shall focus on the good in our lives, cut out gossiping and criticizing others, create healthy habits, work on meaningful projects, dream about future creations, go on dates and spent more quality time as a family.

If I had to choose, the most important life lesson is summarized to this: Life is so short. What’s happened is already in the past. The future is here for us to create. The power is in this moment. In this moment, we have the choice to create painful memories from the past, or we can create a beautiful tomorrow. You have that power.

A beautiful life is closer than we think. It’s already here … if we choose to see it.

After all, Twenty-four brand new hours are before me, what joyful experiences will I choose next?

[NG] 廣東新聞台︰鄺紹良「我就係人面獸心」

“一個女強人公司的上市傳奇!”

http://news.cnyes.com/Content/20111021/KDZTRZE52GXN2.shtml?c=sh_stock

內地女老闆 哭出幾億銀     認證微博在10月17日22點發微博稱,“一上市公司老板,女,當過教師,后經商,生意做大,夢想上市。在證監會發審委的那間小屋子里聲淚俱下,證監會官員跟發審委員面對一個女強人突如其來的眼淚,眾人驚訝,頓生憐惜之心。毫無科技含量的一公司在眼淚的轟炸之下,成功過會。”

一言驚起萬重浪,IPO觀察更將之稱為“一個女強人公司的上市傳奇!”,更有人聲稱女老板這一哭哭出了價值,是“史上成本最低、收益最高的淚水。”

截至記者發稿時,該條微博被轉發了1014次,評論316次,連侯寧、中投證券資深分析師徐曉宇等知名人士也紛紛轉留言評論。網民更展開了該上市公司的競猜活動,包括梅安森、輝煌科技等上市公司都被點名。

也有不少股民責備傳聞中的證監會“心慈手軟”,“最是小呆無賴”就表示,“歸根結底是因為缺少嚴謹的制度。所以眼淚、美色、金錢、關係…可以改變很多東西”。網民FLOWERONTHEROCK調侃稱:“如果這事是真的,那就太悲摧了。證監會官員和發審委員就這水平?改行當居委會大媽或者婦聯官員得了”。也有網友調侃稱,“建議發審委增加機器人委員數量!!!!”

部分股民聯想到當前炒股的現狀,感慨稱“過會如此沒譜,引無數股民競折腰”。而部分網友心態較好,認為該股沒科技含量不要緊,炒作下就有題材了。(投資快報)

Freedom


Last night,
met a young Chinese girl who wore a T-shirt with the sentence written like this:

My daughter got accepted by the US Army,

All I got was this T-Shirt,

And My FREEDOM.

Movie - Dying Young


Remember I watched this movie in Berea, and I love the music immediately!

Movie - Notting Hill

Love the movie and the music, even though watched it long time ago.

再說飲宴打包

昨晚飲宴,
看見席上浪費很多食物,
從侍者口中得知
公司規矩,
宴會完結後,
他們亦不可打包沒有客人食過的佳餚.

回想,
以前曾有數次飲宴的經驗,
食物放在桌上,
客人還未食完,
侍者已快速的拿走食物,
因為以前酒樓會以客人剩餘的食物作為侍者們的下欄,
而一些個別的侍者,
則有點兒過份,
致令有客人向酒樓反應,
佳餚未享用已被取走.

其實,
任何情況下都有個別事件的發生,
因為一些個別不恰當或錯誤的做法,
令在一般情況下,
可以達至較理想的做法不能進行,
真是社會的損失!

Restaurant Tower 360 - Mostra Gastronómica da Lusofonia

Lunch at Restaurant Tower yesterday.
It was my first time eating there,
since several times I planned to eat there,
the weather was very bad and disallowed us to go up to enjoy the meals,
thus only taking the meals on 4/F instead.

The weather was pretty good yesterday,
I could enjoy the beautiful Macau,
 in different angles!
Comparing with the international food,
with the special views,
I think the price is reasonable.

Mostra Gastronómica da Lusofonia : de 20 a 30 de Outubro, entre as 11h30 e as 15h00
(almoço) e entre as 18h30 e as 22h00 (jantar), decorre no Restaurante “360º Café”da Torre
de Macau, uma mostra de gastronomia confeccionada por Chefes de Cozinha provenientes
dos países/regiões de língua portuguesa.

Diariamente, 5 Chefes desses países apresentam,alternadamente, as suas especialidades ao almoço e jantar. Pratos como a feijoada brasileira, a moamba de Angola, o Chabéu da Guiné-Bissau, ou ainda o minchi de Macau serão algumas das especialidades a serem apresentadas.

A cerimónia de abertura terá lugar às 12h00 do primeiro dia da mostra. Estarão representados os seguintes Chefes de Cozinha propostos pelas 10 Associações lusófonas locais :

Wilson Aguiar (Angola),
Mário Luís Borges (Brasil),
Eduardo Moreira (Cabo Verde),
Lídia Maria Morais dos Santos (Guiné-Bissau),
João Francisco Jerónimo Dias (Goa),
Carolina Navarro (Macau),
Carlos Alberto Khan da Graça (Moçambique),
Dário Emanuel Silva Santos (Portugal),
Hirondina da Conceição Rompão (São Tomé e Príncipe)
e Delfina Maria Baptista Guterres (Timor Leste).

Doggie Bag打包

Last night,
went to a banquet for a special event,
it was a Chinese dinner,
but most of the guests were non-Chinese.
There were plenty of food on the table,
with the cultural gap,
the guests could not even touch some of the dishes.

Approaching the dessert time,
the waitress was very kind and asked me if I would like to wrap the food and carry back home,
since she explained that it is the restaurant policy,
no food should be taken out by the staff after work,
all the left over should be treated as trash,
it is really a waste of food.

When I heard of this,
I felt very bad for many people didn't have enough food,
but for this occasion,
a lot of food are wasted on every meal.

As a result,
I didn't mind to carry the doggie bags home,
I just wish that everyone should treasure all the food on the table!

麵包樹 breadfruit (Fruta Pão)

Many years ago,
read the novels of 張小嫻,
one of the novels' name was with one kind of tropical plants - breadfruit 麵包樹,
at that time,
I was curious that one can eat bread without baking,
without spending a lot of time to do the cooking,
just get the nuts from the tree,
one can enjoy the taste of bread,
it is very interesting.

In Africa,
this kind of tree is very common,
however,
since I didn't get the chance to travel in certain parts of Africa,
never get the chance to see or taste it.

Yesterday,
with a special occassion,
I got the chance to see the nuts of the breadfruit,
in Macau !
With the aeroplane transportation,
it was so fresh.

After heating the breadfruit inside the oven for a while,
it tastes like bread /potatos,
for me,
it is very special,
but for the people far away from their home country,
it is a taste of their home food!

    救人婦獲獎5000 盼贈悅悅 女童父感動婉拒﹕無以回報

    【明報專訊】佛山兩歲女童王悅(悅悅)被兩車輾過後,18個路人無一施援,最後只有一名拾紙皮幫補家計的婦人相助,女童撿回一命;這每月掙數百元人民幣的陳嬸嬸更好事做到底,希望將好心人捐給她的5000元轉贈女童一家,並說不足掛齒,「救人值千金,算是一點心意」。女童父親對婦人義舉深受感動,但即使要籌措醫療費,也萬般不願拿對方半分錢。

    茄子跟梨子能排出致癌物質!

    收到Angela的電郵,覺得訊息很有用,好的東西一定要大家分享,抄錄如下:

    茄子跟膽固醇息息相關; 梨和加熱過的梨汁排出體內致癌物質

    飯後吃個梨﹐積存在人體內的致癌物質可以大量排出。

    調查結果顯示﹐吸煙或者吃烤肉等在體內聚集的強致癌物質多環芳香烴﹐在吃梨後會顯著降低。

    加熱過的梨汁含有更大量的抗癌物質─多酚。給注射過致癌物質的小白鼠喝這樣的梨汁﹐白鼠的尿液中就能排出大量的1-羥基芘毒素﹐從而預防癌患。

    梨和加熱過的梨汁﹐都有加速排出體內致癌物質的功能。

    專家建議﹐在人們熱衷於吃煎烤食品、快餐類食品的今天﹐飯後吃一個梨不失為一種值得推薦的健康生活方式。
    @茄子跟膽固醇息息相關

    茄子,又名落蘇,有青茄、白茄及紫茄三種,性能相同。茄子內含 維生素A、B1、B2、C及脂肪蛋白質等。
    經科學試驗,茄子含有豐富的維生素P;每公斤茄子含維生素P達七千二百毫克 。
    維生素P,能增強人體細胞間的粘著力,降低膽固醇,可保持微血管的堅韌性。
    多吃茄子,對血管硬化有抑制作用。在食療上,有降低高血壓、防止微管破裂的特殊功能。
    美國醫學界在「降低膽固醇十二法」中,茄子榮居榜首。
    茄子不僅能降低膽固醇、高血壓、軟化血管、而且還! 含! 有抗癌的成份。現代科學已知茄子含有「龍葵素」。
    「龍葵素」能抑制消化系統腫瘤的增殖。防治癌症專家建議:茄子可作為癌症病人的常用的食物。
    茄子還能防治咯血,老人斑、壞血症、對痛風患者,也有一定的效用。

    茄子的吃法,最好不用油炒。可將茄子洗淨切裂縫放於飯鍋中蒸熟,取拌入薑末、麻油等,稍加醋和醬油拌食。 梨和加熱過的梨汁都有加速排出體內致癌物質的功能。

    這篇文章是否會讓你起身去削個梨吃呢。

    心想事成的秘密(每日激勵觀想) The Secret to You


    I am grateful to be
    ME
    Today is the best day of my life!

    領導的本質

    Conan O'Brien, Speech to the Harvard Class of 2000


    I’d like to begin by thanking the class marshals for inviting me here today. The last time I was invited to Harvard it cost me $110,000. So I was reluctant to show up. I’m going to start before I really begin by announcing my one goal this afternoon. I want to be half as funny as tomorrow’s Commencement speaker, moral philosopher and economist Amartya Sen. That’s the job. Must get more laughs than seminal wage-price theoretician. By the way, enjoy that. Bring a calculator. It’s going to be a nerd fest.

    Students of the Harvard class of 2000, 15 years ago I sat where you sit now. And I thought exactly what you are now thinking. What’s going to happen to me? Will I find my place in the world? Am I really graduating a virgin? Still have 24 hours. Roommate’s mom very hot. Swear she’s checking me out. There was that Rob Lowe movie.

    Song - I have nothing




    Share my life, take me for what I am
    Coz I'll never change all my colors for you
    Take my love, I'll never ask for too much
    Just all that you are and everything that you do

    I don't really need to look very much further
    I don't want to have to go where you don't follow
    I won't hold it back again, this passion inside
    Can't run from myself
    There's nowhere to hide


    Well,don't make me close one more door
    I don't wanna hurt anymore
    Stay in my arms if you dare
    Or must I imagine you there
    Don't walk away from me...
    I have nothing, nothing, nothing
    If I don't have you, you, you, you, you, you...

    You see through, right to the heart of me
    You break down my walls with the strength of your love mmmmm...
    I never knew love like I've known it with you
    Will a memory survive, one I can hold on to

    I don't really need to look very much further
    I don't want to have to go where you don't follow
    I won't hold it back again, this passion inside
    I Can't run from myself
    There's nowhere to hide
    Your love I'll remember, forever

    Don't make me close one more door
    I don't wanna hurt anymore
    Stay in my arms if you dare
    Or must I imagine you there
    Don't walk away from me...
    I have nothing, nothing, nothing...

    Well,don't make me close one more door
    I don't wanna hurt anymore
    Stay in my arms if you dare
    Or must I imagine you there
    Don't walk away from me no...
    Don't walk away from me
    Don't you dare walk away from me
    I have nothing, nothing, nothing
    If I don't have you, you
    ooohhh,ooooh
    if i don't have you,oohh... thankyou guys !!!!

    David Foster Wallace Kenyon Speech

    (If anybody feels like perspiring [cough], I'd advise you to go ahead, because I'm sure going to. In fact I'm gonna [mumbles while pulling up his gown and taking out a handkerchief from his pocket].) Greetings ["parents"?] and congratulations to Kenyon's graduating class of 2005. There are these two young fish swimming along and they happen to meet an older fish swimming the other way, who nods at them and says "Morning, boys. How's the water?" And the two young fish swim on for a bit, and then eventually one of them looks over at the other and goes "What the hell is water?"

    Song - 童話

    作詞:光良 
    作曲:光良 
    編曲:Taichi Nakamure

    忘了有多久 再沒聽到你
    對我說你最愛的故事
    我想了很久 我開始慌了
    是不是我又做錯了甚麼

    你哭著對我說 童話裏都是騙人的
    我不可能是你的王子
    也許你不會懂 從你說愛我以後
    我的天空星星都亮了

    我願(要/會)變成童話裏 你愛的那個天使
    張開雙手 變成翅膀守護你
    你要相信 相信我們會像童話故事裏
    幸福和快樂是結局
    一起寫我們的結局

    大陸樓市

    沒有上大陸一段日子,周日上珠海,看見在迎賓大路上人潮處處,奇怪的是,多了很多不同樓市的流動推銷員,向途人派宣傳單張,樓盤的名稱及地點都五花八門,真是供應十足,只欠有興趣的買家.


    坐公車時沿途亦見很多新建的樓房,至唐家灣時,更令我覺經濟發展的可怕,以往在唐家很容易望見的天,水,樹木,已很像消失了一樣,大型工程.填海及一座座的新樓在視線範圍內.

    車程進入淇澳島,才開始有進入大自然的感覺.然而,在島內亦看見一些舊屋重建,有至四五層高的私人樓房,看見簡簡單單的砌磚高樓,再想想工人及將來在屋內的住客的安全問題,真的有很多問題在腦海中打轉.

    食住行-真是民生大事! 今天看見此新聞,且看看大國處理此問題,談何容易? -

    樓市拐點漸現 中央地方博弈 佛山「限購」鬆綁 李克強叫停

    (星島日報報道)內地樓市「金九銀十」幻滅,一綫城市「十•一黃金周」成交量一片慘淡,價格亦現下調。有地方政府終於「hold不住」,佛山上周首推鬆綁「限購令」新規,卻遭緊急叫停,有傳這是常務副總理李克強震怒的結果。專家指,樓市調控以來,中央和地方一直博弈「暗戰」,目前中央政府調控決心依然堅定,樓市拐點或在明年初到來。

    Song - 心動


    作詞:林夕
    作曲:黃韻玲

    有多久沒見你 以為你在哪裡
    原來就住在我心底 陪伴著我的呼吸
    有多遠的距離 以為聞不到你氣息
    誰知道你背影這麼長 回頭就看到你

    過去讓它過去 來不及
    從頭喜歡你 白雲纏繞著藍天

    哦 ~
    如果不能夠永遠走在一起
    也至少給我們懷念的勇氣 擁抱的權利
    好讓你明白 我心動的痕跡

    總是想再見你 還試著打探你消息
    原來你就住在我的身體 守護我的回憶

    參加非牟利組織的活動感想

    今天下午去了一個分享聚會,
    與一些非牟利組織的學員一同享受一個酒店的下午茶自助餐.
    聚會中智障家長們為我們唱了兩首他們心聲的歌,
    真是做家長難,
    做智障小孩的家長更難!

    三個組織中,
    其實只有澳門特殊奧運會有認識.
    因為以前在美國讀書時,
    餘閒時亦有参加一些校內的義務工作,
    並轉介參加特殊奧運會的活動,
    協助學員們習訓及參加比賽.

    最深刻印象是一次,
    我負責陪伴的小女孩,
    她很緊張,
    因為她很想獲勝,
    但在比賽時她的單雙槓表現不好,
    最終她輸了,
    她很不開心,
    我亦盡最大努力去鼓勵她,
    現在回想已是那時生活的一個小點滴.

    另外,
    我們每周定期探訪不同的老人院或不同類型的院舍,
    每次的氣氛都是很親切的.
    很多時,
    由於隔了一段日子才到訪,
    往往初時院友或學員們會對我們稍有陌生的感覺,
    雖然我們這些既不是他們的親人亦不是相識深交的舊朋友,
    但每次我們的探訪都令寧靜的院舍充滿生氣,
    他們是那麼期望我們時常到訪,
    不是我們關心他們,
    他們也關心我們,
    在那裡,
    讓我體會書本以外的人間溫情,
    亦使我深受感染及感動.

    年前曾參加了兩次澳門特殊奧運會的學員們習訓活動.
    接觸了一些開心活潑的小孩.
    今天下午再遇見一個熟悉的小面孔,
    且在會中再聽家長們的心聲,
    更覺家長們他們的偉大.
    亦使我記起一個故事.

    那次,
    小男孩說,
    如果不是有特殊奧運會安排的活動,
    他就沒有機會出來練習,
    因為家人要上班去.

    那次訓練,
    亦有家長陪同學員的,
    但一部分都是沒有家人陪同,
    對於他們來說,
    亦是生活的小考驗.

    那個男孩是散會後先離開運動場的一個,
    在巴士站等了很久的車,
    待我們出來時,
    查詢他的家在那兒時,
    最終給我們發覺他不懂得回家,
    因為他的家就是在附近.

    那天,
    教他走回家的路,
    望著他小小的背影,
    心內只有默默的祝福他, 他們及他們的家人,
    雖然他們的路是十分難行的,
    希望他們亦能如我們正常人一樣,
    在大家的關懷及關心下,
    努力克服困難,
    感受世界的美好!



    Macau's Lusofonia festival brings back China Culture Week

    http://www.macaunews.com.mo/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1049&Itemid=6

    The annual Lusofonia ("Portuguese-speaking") Festival will this year bring back the China Cultural Week it introduced in 2008, with the double event set to take place across Macau on October 22-29, according to held at the Civic and Municipal Affairs Bureau (IACM).

    The festival will, as always, take place at the Carmo area adjacent to the Taipa Houses Museum.

    The festival, which has grown into a "must-go" event for both locals and tourists, did not include its "China and Portuguese-speaking Countries Cultural Week" segment last year, but the organisers are bringing it back this year by "popular demand," IACM pointed out in a press conference Tuesday.

    Song - 愛你


    作曲:Lupo Groinig, G.E.M.
    作詞:G.E.M.
    編曲/監製:Lupo Groing

    分開以後每個晚上 格外的寂靜
    滴答滴答 剩大鐘在陪着我回憶
    電話裏頭曾經是你最溫柔的聲音
    現在只有空氣 冷漠地回應

    OH 給你我的心 能否請你別遺棄
    一句愛你愛你愛你愛你 能否再也不分離
    OH 給你我的心 爲什麽你卻給了我孤寂
    就算愛你愛你愛你愛你 可能你也不想聼

    你的擁抱曾經是 最溫暖最熟悉
    現在換了誰安睡在你胸口的位置
    你的承諾曾是一種不自覺的甜蜜
    現在一劃一筆 刺在我心裡

    OH 給你我的心 能否請你別遺棄
    (I gave you everything, Never Asked for anything)
    一句愛你愛你愛你愛你 能否再也不分離
    (I wish that you could stay, Ha! It’s just my wishful thinking)
    OH 給你我的心 爲什麽你卻給了我孤寂
    (I gave you everything, But all I got is pain)
    就算愛你愛你愛你愛你 可能你也不想聼 你不想聼
    (Although my heart is bleeding, You still don’t feel a thing)

    回憶 對你最後的回憶
    (回憶 最後的回憶)
    是你 慢慢走遠的身影
    (是你走遠的身影)
    然後你 離開了沒有痕跡
    (然後你 離開)
    然後我 崩潰了放縱哭泣
    (然後我 哭泣)
    恨你恨你 每當我想起曾經
    (恨你 每當我想起你 每當我想起曾經)
    曾經曾經曾經曾經

    還是愛你愛你愛你愛你
    難道還不能清醒

    OH 給你我的心 能否請你別遺棄
    (I gave you everything, Never Asked for anything)
    一句愛你愛你愛你愛你 難道你也不想聽
    (I wish that you could stay, Ha! It’s just my wishful thinking)
    OH 給你我的心 爲什麽你卻給了我孤寂
    (I gave you everything, But all I got is pain)
    就算愛你愛你愛你愛你 不值得為你傷心 傷心
    (Although my heart is bleeding, You still don’t feel a thing)

    Your confession remains to be my final pleading,
    But the only thing that’s here with me is tic tac tic tac tic tac tic tac
