Gift Of Love - Treasure It

Dear emailed me this and it is really touching.
When I read this email, I realise that sometimes I take
things for granted

Here it goes :
___________

There was a blind girl who hated herself because she was blind. She hated
everyone, except her loving boyfriend. He was always there for her. She told
her boyfriend, 'If I could only see the world, I will marry you.'


有一位瞎女很討厭自己因為眼睛瞎了。她也討厭每個人,唯一不討厭的是她的男朋友,
因為他都常守在她身旁。於是她對她的男朋友說:「如果能讓我看到這個世界,我愿意
嫁給你!」

One day, someone donated a pair of eyes to her. When the bandages came off,
she was able to see everything, including her boyfriend.

有一天,有人捐了一對眼精給她。當紗布解開時,她能夠看到一切,包括她的男朋友。

He asked her, 'Now that you can see the world, will you marry me?' The girl
looked at her boyfriend and saw that he was blind. The sight of his closed
eyelids shocked her. She hadn't expected that. The thought of looking at
them the rest of her life led her to refuse to marry him.

男朋友問她:「現在你可以看到這世界,你愿意嫁給我嗎?」那女孩看了男朋友是個瞎
子,他那對蓋上眼皮的眼睛嚇到了她,這是她無法想像。她想:要我嫁給他而一生對着
他這個樣子,我無法接受。

Her boyfriend left in tears and days later wrote a note to her saying: 'Take
good care of your eyes, my dear, for before they were yours, they were mine.
'

於是,她的男朋友很傷心的離開她,幾天後寫了字條給她:「親愛的,請你好好照顧你
的眼睛,因為它不是屬於你的之前,它是屬於我的。」

This is how the human brain often works when our status changes.
Only a very few remember what life was like before, and who was always by
their side in the most painful situations.

這也是人的腦會如何做當情況有所變動。只有少許人會記得他或她之前的生活及誰會在
身旁當他或她處在困境的時候

Life Is a Gift

生命是一份禮物

Today before you say an unkind word - Think of someone who can't speak.

今天,當你要講一句不善之言--請想想那些無法講話的人

Before you complain about the taste of your food - Think of someone who has
nothing to eat.

當你要埋怨食物的味道時--請想想那些沒有食物吃的人

Before you complain about your husband or wife - Think of someone who's
crying out to GOD for a companion.

當你要埋怨你的先生或太太時--請想想那些在向上天哭訴要一個伴侶的人

Today before you complain about life - Think of someone who died too early
on this earth.

今天,當你要埋怨生活時--請想想那些太早離開人世間的人

Before you complain about your children - Think of someone who desires
children but they're barren..

當你要埋怨小孩時--請想想那些渴望小孩而無能生育的人

Before you argue about your dirty house someone didn't clean or sweep -
Think of the people who are living in the streets.

當你要爭論沒有人清理屋子時--請想想那些住在街邊的人

Before whining about the distance you drive, Think of someone who walks the
same distance with their feet.

當你在哀訴駕駛的路程--請想想那些同樣的路程以代步的人

And when you are tired and complain about your job - Think of the
unemployed, the disabled, and those who wish they had your job.

當你很疲備而埋怨工作時--請想想那些無工作,殘疾的,及那些多麼希望擁有你這份
工作的人

But before you think of pointing the finger or condemning another - Remember
that not one of us is without sin.

當你想要指著人或互相譴責時--請記得沒有一個人是無罪

And when depressing thoughts seem to get you down - Put a smile on your face
and think: you're alive and still around.

當壓抑的念頭讓你無法振作時--請你笑一笑想想:你還活著存在世間!


我祈禱這訊息能夠繼續傳至全人類..............
Too beautiful not to share.......

Cut coffee intake for a healthier baby, says study

PARIS (AFP) - - Pregnant women should keep consumption of coffee, tea and cola to a minimum, according to a study published on Monday that sees a link between caffeine intake and low birthweight among babies.

British researchers recruited 2,635 women at between eight and 12 weeks of pregnancy, asked them about their dietary habits and monitored them for caffeine in their saliva at checkups.

Women who took between 100 and 199 milligrams of caffeine per day faced a 20 percent increased risk of having a baby with a relatively lower birth weight compared with counterparts whose intake was less than 100 mg per day.

For those who had an intake of 200-299 mg per day, the risk rose to 40 percent, and for those over 300 mg per day, it was 50 percent.

Birthweight is a widely used benchmark of health, especially for diabetes and heart disease.

An average cup of coffee contains about 100 mg of caffeine and tea about half this amount, although the concentration varies according to the strength of brew and the brand of the product.

Caffeine is also present in cola, chocolate, coca and some drugs.

The so-called CARE study, published online by the British Medical Journal, said "sensible advice" would be for women to reduce caffeine intake before conception and throughout pregnancy.

Previous research has found that caffeine easily crosses the placenta into the foetus, although the evidence for low birthweight has also been inconclusive and muddied by factors such as smoking and alcohol consumption.

This is the first study that also sees a link in tea, which comprised 60 percent of the caffeine consumed by the women.

On its website, Britain's Food Standards Agency (FSA) said it was cutting its recommended maximum intake of caffeine for pregnant women to 200 mg per day -- the rough equivalent of two mugs of coffee -- from 300 mg in the light of the study.

"This new advice doesn't mean that pregnant women have to cut out caffeine completely, simply that they should be careful and make sure they don't have too much. We would emphasise that the risks are likely to be very small," said the FSA's chief scientist, Andrew Wadge.

When men see red, they see hot: study

I was reading the Yahoo news and I find this piece of news interesting.

WASHINGTON (AFP) - - The popular ballad "Lady in Red" is poised to take on a whole new meaning: a study published Tuesday showed that the color red makes men see women as hotter or, more scientifically put, more attractive.

Researchers from the University of Rochester in New York conducted five psychological experiments to demonstrate that the color red makes men feel more amorous toward women.

In the experiments, groups of young men looked briefly at a picture of a moderately attractive woman printed on a red background, and the same woman then on a white, grey or green background. They also looked at a woman in red clothing, and the same one in blue clothing.

The men found the lady with a red background more attractive, both physically and sexually.

Comparing the woman in a red shirt to the same woman dressed in blue, men said they were more likely to ask the lady in red on a date and to lavish more money on her.

As part of one of the experiments, as well, the researchers sought to see whether a group of women were similarly more attracted to the woman shown against a red backdrop than a background of a different color. They were not.

What the researchers call the "red-sex link" could have roots in humans' biological heritage.

For instance, among primates, females display more red on parts of their body when they are nearing ovulation, probably to attract the male of the species.

"Research has shown that male primates are indeed particularly attracted to female conspecifics exhibiting red," the study says.

To the authors of the study, University of Rochester psychology professor Andrew Elliot and post-graduate researcher Daniela Niesta, the experiments' findings confirm what "women have long suspected and claimed: that men act like animals in the sexual realm."

And, they added, the fact that men are more turned on by women in red also confirms that, although men like to think that they respond to women "in a thoughtful and sophisticated manner, it appears that at least to some degree their preferences and predilections are, in a word, primitive."

What to do on a first date (if you're female)

What to do on a first date (if you're female)

This section may be affected by the fact that I am not a woman. And therefore I cannot offer you any tricks that have 'worked for me', obviously. Fortunately for all you double Xs out there* I have, by observation, consultation and fabrication constructed this handy guide.

*(Double X (XX) refers to the names of your sex chromosomes. You did know this, right? Of course you didn't.)

Before we can get to the 'how to bag a shag' section, we first need to establish exactly what sort of person you are. Are you good looking, or passable, or vaguely good looking to an optimist in a poor light, or... Not...

To work this out, I have decided to use a quiz. And to any males reading this section: Take note, make your own analysis of the women you meet using this table, too.

1 - Do you have any of the folowing features: (Add a point for each)

A way of moving that makes your coat swoosh around you.

A smouldering gaze

A sense of humour

A light, tinkly laugh

Long, flowing hair

Perfect breasts (It doesn't matter what size they are, so long as they objectively look good.)

A sexy walk

Deep, vibrant eyes

An easy-going personality

A beautiful smile

Lots of good looking friends (2 point if you have lots of good looking friends, as good looking friends give you a great indication that you, yourself, are good looking.)


2 - For the following features that you possess you must deduct a point.

Nasal hair that exceeds 1cm in length or that protrudes from your nostrils

A facial scar

A broken nose

Obviously missing teeth ( - 2 points for several missing teeth)

A wooden limb ( again, - 2 points if you have more than one fake limb)

A child (-2 points if it's with you. -3 points if it's holding something sticky. -4 points if it's wailing AND holding something sticky AND is using its sticky thing to paint the walls.)

A missing eye (Although if you have a tasteful glass eye then only deduct half a point)

A really ugly best friend that follows you everywhere.

A propensity for being likened to a horse (If people often mention your horsiness then deduct 5 points)

A personality that is one of the following: Possessive, disruptive, manic, depressive, manic depressive, schizophrenic

Piercings that are not in your head. (And -1 if you have more than 8 small facial piercing (And that's me being generous since I know that some of you seem to think that having metal hanging out of your face is "dead stylish". I'd deduct 2 points for this alone, but some males inexplicably find this attractive also. Remember, though, that all of the ones like me (i.e the Great ones) will find it irksome.)

And for each of the following places that you have body hair then deduct a point: upper lip, in between your eyebrows, knuckles, elbows, the back of your knees, on your jaw, anywhere in your mouth and in your ears.

Now, add up those points.

Do you have +3 or more? Then WELL DONE, you're good looking. See the first section below for advice on how to behave on dates.

Did you score between +2 and -2? Then you are not-bad looking, nor completely unattractive . Give the good looking section and the following section a read and take advice as you see fit.

Less than -2? Oh dear. You're going to need a bit of help with getting chaps to find you attractive. See the section for people. See the section for the not-so good looking for that essential advice on all things romantic.

Less than -8? Don't you even think about going out on any dates. Stay indoors. Don't yet despair, however, see the "So you look like a horse?" guide below, and soon you may well be in the -2 to -8 range. Hurrah!

Less than -10? Stay indoors.

Less than -12? Stay undergound.

Less than -16? How did you manage to get a score this low? You must be trying to look COMPLETELY gruesome to all around you. If not, then its just as well you read this book. Wear it over your head so no one sees you, run back to your cave, and hide under a rock until death mercifully takes you. See the "So you look like you should live in a pond?" section while you wait for the grim reaper.

Right, now that you have been handily and insultingly classified, on with the first-date guides!


How to Bag a Shag:

If you are good looking then do the following. (This works 24/7, not just on dates):

Laugh charmingly.

Look pretty.

That's it. Everyone will do whatever you want, all of the time. (If people don't do whatever you want all of the time then you may have added up your points incorrectly.)

If you are... not so good looking:

O.K, you are going to need to use all of your natural assets to pull this one off, but you can do it. You go girl...

Make him feel important. Ask him questions about his life, job, family, studies- whatever. Men like to feel like they're the centre of the universe, so exploit this to the maximum extent that you possibly can.

Is that not working for you? How about joining in with his enjoyment of 'manly' activities. Sports, for instance. Discus football or some crap like that.

Still no luck? Well, do the pair of you share an interest? If so, splendid. Discuss the myriad intricacies of whatever your common interest is, whether a hobby, activity or... you know, whatever it is.

And if all else fails?

Offer to felate him.

Too extreme? Then the subtle approach is more likely to be your style...

Simply allude to the fact that the taste of semen and/or testicle is not entirely unappealing to you.

Feeling stylish and confident? (N.B if you are always confident then you may be 'good looking' in which case see the preceding section. If not, then read on...) Lick your lips- Then say "Do you know what I like the taste of?" He will shake his head, or shrug. Then you should toss your hair, meet his eyes, let a flicker of a smile play across your lips, and say, frankly and assuredly: "Cock." Do all of that (And do it properly) and you're sure to knock him dead with your radiating sexuality. UNLESS he has read this book, in which case he'll laugh at you (and probably distribute a 4PPS (See pimping section).)

Desperate?

Then do the thing from 'Basic Instinct'. (If you don't know what this is then don't bother finding out. Trust me, if you don't already know then you're not the sort to try it.)

And remember, most women fall under this category. That's why the good looking ones can get away with just sitting there, blinking, and watch as men flock to them like flies round a delicious, oozing cake. But you can get one of their rejects if you try really hard.

So you look like a horse?

Good luck, horse-face.

What were you expecting? Advice?... OK: Wear a bag over your head, horse-face.

So you look like you should live in a pond?

Then go and live in one.
