My Sharing Space11/12/2006 大富翁還記得兒時總離不開"大富翁"這遊戲...每縫週末及假期,便跟姐弟及鄰家的朋友們一起玩這遊戲,它-是我的童年回憶!
今天頭痛很”狠”,但仍赴約跟幾位行山朋友到一 cafe相聚,目的便是為了玩大富翁.高興,全因為整個過程,緊張手頭的cash快付清給其余玩家,更害怕自己快將bankrupcy,到最後臨離開時反而現今變得很充裕,沒有破產的發生.哈哈,真的算是好彩!
Anyway,今天能夠重溫兒時的回憶,足夠令我開心一晚了. 11/7/2006 豆漿四不與飯後五不經常喝豆漿的婦女體內的女性荷爾蒙雌性素Oestrogen與黃體素progesterone都明顯地降低。 我們已知雌性素的濃度過高與乳癌很有關係,乳癌的發展與女性荷爾蒙息息相關。 研究中讓婦女每天喝下約1000c.c.的豆漿,連續達五個月,結果喝豆漿的婦女體內的雌性素濃度比不喝豆漿者低了30-40%,黃豆中已知有一種天然的女性荷爾蒙稱之為soflavone(異黃酮)它與人體的荷爾蒙很相像,有趣的是,它具有雙重的功效,不但能夠占據乳癌的荷爾蒙受體(hormone receptor),讓人體的荷爾蒙無法刺激乳癌細胞,另一方面也能夠像人體自然的女性荷爾蒙一樣地防止骨質疏鬆症,這種功效和一種抗藥物Tam oxifen極相似。 東方婦女通常會食用比西方婦女更多的黃豆,但是隨著飲食習慣西化,年輕一輩的東方女性發生乳癌的機會越來越高,或許這也和黃豆攝取量越來越少有關。
首爾今天我從首爾回到香港.
這是我第二次來首爾,也是一個月來的第二次.從來無計劃要到南韓旅遊,需這兩次之行也只限於工作及於商業區內活動.一心以為她跟香港沒兩樣,但兩次之行卻令自己對這地方改觀. 首爾地方寬敞,城市規劃及發展也很好,科技比香港來得更先進,更重要的是四周也有很多緑化的花草樹木,就算工作有多煩惱及壓力也好,在街上巳給我一份很舒暢的感覺.難得的是這次一行正值秋季,多番到四川為的是欣賞紅葉但卻失望而回,而這次有幸看見紅葉,雖只在市區,但巳很滿足. 昨夜下了一場雨,所以今天天氣顯得特別冷.為了盡顯一點作為人地女朋友的心意,就只有45分鐘的時間內,從酒店匆忙趕到附近的Department Store給男朋友家人買點地道的小吃作手信用.剛才在機場,也是只剩下的半小時內給媽媽,阿Ching及Fion買了生日禮物,總算不負大家所托. 經此一行,我終於為父母想到他們應該到那裡旅行了! 11/4/2006 Seafood faces collapse by 2048昨夜在CNN看到一篇報導,報導說2048年全球便沒有海鮮可吃 ◦ 自從看畢“絶望真相”(The Inconvenient Truth),開始對Global Warming多加留意,當看到此報導後,真的很無奈,仲有40年就 連海鮮都無,加上Greenhouse effects,介時地球真的難以相像會變成怎樣了! Global Warming Effect - 2005 set record for greenhouse gases剛click進一個NEWS website時,便看到有關Greenhouse effect 的報導...又是Global Warming ◦ 究竟有多少人真的會正視及理會這個 issue呢! Expert: 'Looks like it will just continue like this for the foreseeable future' Greenhouse gases in the Earth's atmosphere reached a high in 2005 and are still increasing. The measurements coordinated by the World Meteorological Organization show that the global average concentrations of carbon dioxide, or CO2, and nitrous oxide, or N2O, reached record levels last year and are expected to increase even further this year. "There is no sign that N2O and CO2 are starting to level off," Braathen told reporters at the global body's European headquarters. "It looks like it will just continue like this for the foreseeable future." The concentration of carbon dioxide rose by about half a percent last year to reach 379.1 parts per million, according to the agency. Nitrous oxide totaled 319.2 parts per billion, which is 0.19 percent higher than in 2004. Levels of methane, another so-called greenhouse gas, remained stable since last year. Studies have shown that human-produced carbon dioxide emissions heat the Earth's surface and cause greater water evaporation. That leads to more water vapor in the air, which contributes to higher air temperatures. CO2, methane and N2O are the most common greenhouse gases after water vapor.
Third more carbon since late 1700s
They are produced partially by natural sources, such as wetlands, and partially by human activities like fertilizer use or fuel combustion. There is 35.4 percent more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere than there was in the late 18th century primarily because of combustion of fossil fuels, the WMO bulletin said. Scientists say that carbon dioxide and other gases primarily from fossil fuel-burning trap heat in the atmosphere and have warmed the Earth's surface an average 1 degree Fahrenheit over the past century. A report this week by the British government warned that global warming would devastate the world economy on the scale of the world wars and the Great Depression if left unchecked. It said such warming could have effects such as melting glaciers, rising sea levels, declining crop yields, drinking water shortages, higher death tolls from malnutrition and heat stress, and widespread outbreaks of malaria and dengue fever. Developing countries often would be the hardest hit. The U.N. agency said it also has concluded that "greenhouse gases are some of the major drivers behind global warming and climate change." Braathen said power plants, automobiles, ships and airplanes using coal, oil or gas were contributing to the rise in carbon dioxide emissions. "The increase in CO2 is linked to the burning of fossil fuels," he said.
