Swine flu attack! 猪流感来袭!

Are you feverish? Lost of appetite? Or feeling tired all the time?

Beware! You may have swine flu!!!

Ok, I do not want to cause panic, really. Chances are, you may not have swine flu, but recently, swine flu cases have been on the rise, especially in Mexico!

Extra precaution should be taken to ensure that people like you and me do not contract this swine flu virus!

So what is actually swine flu?

Swine flu is actually a respiratory disease of pigs! So actually, the disease starts in pigs first! The viruses spread among the pigs which are in contact with each other. Now, the virus will only be transmitted only if the virus is really there! So not all pigs have swine flu if the virus is absent!

And somehow, humans may have come in contact with those infected pigs, and they carry the disease around. Humans spread the disease to other humans through contact.

Now, this disease has been raised to pandemic level worldwide! There are even travel bans to Mexico, where swine flu cases are the highest. So if you’re going to Mexico, you may want to rethink for the moment.

So what can you do to ensure you’re in the pink of health?

First, if you cough, cough into a tissue. Germs can spread into the air, you know.

Always, always, always wash your hands, and make sure you’re clean.

Do all these simple things while the World Health Organization (WHO) takes steps to combat this infectious disease.

To learn more about the swine flu case, read about the recent news at this website:

你有发烧吗?没有食欲?或经常觉得疲倦吗?

当心!你可能已经感染猪流感!

我不是想制造恐慌,真的。你可能没有感染猪流感,但是最近,猪流感病例持续增加中,特别是在墨西哥!

我们需要采取额外的预防措施,以确保没有患上猪流感病毒!

那么,猪流感是什么呢?

猪流感实际上是指猪患上呼吸系统方面的疾病!因此,这种疾病最初是由猪引起的!病毒在猪群之间散播、传染。如果猪群之间没有存在流感病毒,就不会被传染。因此,并非所有的猪都患有流感!

或是人类可能接触到感染了流感的猪,那他们将会携带流感病毒,且通过接触也会把疾病传染给其他人。

现在,这个疾病已在全世界流行!甚至开始禁止人们到墨西哥旅行,因为那里是猪流感病例最高的国家。因此,如果你想要去墨西哥,或许需要重新考虑。

所以你可以怎么做,以确保你的健康是良好的?

首先,如果你有咳嗽,可以咳在面纸上,因为细菌会随时散播到空气中。

你需要时常清洗你的双手,并保持清洁。

我们只需做好这些简单的事情,而世界卫生组织(WHO)将会采取有效的措施来消灭这种传染病。

What an EYE-opener! 大开眼界!

No wonder scallops have more than 100 eyes!!!!

They are prey to many animals such as crab, starfish and octopus.

And even us human beings, who catch them for food!

They really need to ‘see’ who’s gonna catch them so they can make a run for it.

Unfortunately, amazing as it sounds, scallops CANNOT see! So their eyes are practically useless. So why do they have that MANY eyes???

Their eyes ACTUALLY work to detect motion and light. Let’s say that if some octopus comes near them, their eyes sense the signals of the movement and the scallops will shut immediately. This ACTUALLY helps to protect the scallops.

Ok, scallops are a little like mutants. If you were to damage their eyes in some ways, their eyes WILL regenerate within two months! Amazing, isn’t it?

Besides having a weird range of 100 eyes, scallops travel around by flapping the halves of their shells together.

There are around 360 species of scallops in the world, and they can be found in coastal waters.

Scallops are indeed ‘eye-catching’ creatures, if you know what I mean.



扇贝拥有超过100只眼睛!!!!你是否觉得很不可思议呢?

它们往往成为许多动物捕食的对象,如螃蟹、海星和章鱼,甚至是被我们当作食物!

因此,它们真的需要“瞧瞧”是谁想捕食它们,以便可以迅速逃跑。

不幸的是,我们惊讶地发现扇贝其实是看不见的!因此,它们的眼睛几乎毫无用处。那么,为什么他们会有很多只眼睛???

它们的眼睛确实是用来察觉动作和光的。如果一些章鱼靠近它们的身边时,它们的眼睛可以感觉到敌人的行踪,扇贝接收到信号后将迅速闭合。这种方式实际上有助于保护扇贝。

扇贝有一点像突变的生物。如果你损伤了它们的眼睛,它们会在两个月内再生!是不是非常惊人?

除了拥有100只眼睛的奇特区域,扇贝还会拍动它们半张开的贝壳到处游动。

世界上大约有360种扇贝,他们可以在沿海水域找得到。

总而言之,扇贝确实是“引人注目”的海洋生物。

Let's Say No to Turtle Eggs! 向海龟蛋说不!

Have you ever eaten a turtle egg? Or are you going to eat a turtle egg? If you do, DON’T eat it!

Well, it’s not because it’s poisonous or the egg will turn you into a mutant if you eat it. NO. That is not the reason.

It’s BECAUSE marine turtles are facing the threat of extinction! That is why our good friend, the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), is doing whatever it takes to stop man from poaching turtle eggs!

Turtle eggs are sold openly in Malaysia due to steady demands. And people continue buying them, oblivious to the fact that the number of marine turtle species is on an alarming decline.

In the 1950s, there were 10,000 leatherback Turtles in Terengganu. But now, it’s just only 10 a year! How scary is that? Imagine that you’d won RM10,000. And suddenly, you go on a crazy spree and end up with RM10.

That’s a MAJOR change, I tell you!

And by EATING turtle eggs, you’re killing the turtle species with one swallow of your mouth. Imagine the turtle egg lying RIP in the hollows of your stomach. How horrible is that?

Turtles are such beautiful creatures, and it would be sad to see them literally GONE one day. Do we really want that to happen?

No, we don’t.

So if you’re presented with a turtle egg, or you have friends who are going to eat a turtle egg, SAY NO!

If you want eggs, there are LOTS of chicken eggs around the world. Why pick turtle eggs when marine turtles are dying faster than the chickens of the world?

Be smart. Make a wise move. Save our loving turtles.

Your TINY action can make a HUGE difference!

Read more on WWF’s action to save marine turtles here:

http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20090422/sc_afp/malaysiawildlifeturtles_20090422090741;_ylt=Asy4SVRJn8HOVcNMz7aE2Y8PLBIF


你曾经吃过海龟蛋吗?或者你想过要吃海龟蛋?如果你有此意,请不要吃了!

不是因為它是有毒的,或你吃了它身体会出现什么变化。不,这些都不是真正的理由。

主要是因为海龟正面临灭绝的威胁!这就是为什么我们的好朋友--世界自然基金会(WWF),正在尽一切力量阻止人们私自窃取海龟蛋!

由于海龟蛋在马来西亚有固定的需求,所以在本国是公开售卖的。人们无视于海龟种类的数量正以惊人的速度减少着,仍然继续购买它们。

在1950年代,丁加奴共有10000只棱龟。但是到了现在,一年只有十只棱龟!多么令人感到可怕!试想想如果你赢了一笔RM10,000的钱,突然,你一时太开心了,没有节制地狂欢作乐,最后身上只剩下RM10。那些迅速减少的棱龟就是这样的感觉。

我可以告诉你,这是一个重大的改变!

如果你吃了海龟蛋,就像是用你的一张嘴亲手杀死了海龟一样。想像海龟蛋躺在你空洞的胃中安息的画面,是多么可怕啊!

海龟是美丽的动物,眼看着它们慢慢地消失将会让人感到无比悲伤。难道我们真的希望这样的事情发生?

不,我们不会。

因此,如果你有一颗海龟蛋,或者你有朋友正在吃海龟蛋,请向他们说不!

如果你想要蛋,世界上有很多粒鸡蛋。当海龟的灭亡速度超过鸡的情况时,为什么还要选择海龟蛋呢?

学得聪明些。作出明智的举动。拯救我们亲爱的海龟。

你小小的举动可以有很大的改变哦!

如果你想阅读更多关于世界自然基金会拯救海龟的行动,请看这里:

'HEART' to believe!!!! 難以置信!!!!

You may be freaked out when you hear this; an octopus has THREE hearts!!!!

Really (no kidding). That’s the mystery of nature. You keep wondering why God gives an octopus three hearts. You’d think that octopuses are loving and kind because they have a BIG heart!

Don’t get me wrong. I wouldn’t try to hug an octopus in case it tries to strangle me with its slimy and slick tentacles. And probably ooze some ink at me for disturbing it.

So WHY do octopuses have that many hearts? Two smaller hearts are actually used to pump blood to the gills. The blood loads up on oxygen here, and then goes to the main heart. This oxygen-rich blood will then be pumped out through the octopus’ body.

And guess what? The blood is not red, like us human’s. An octopus’ blood colour is ACTUALLY blue!!!! That’s because octopuses have a protein called hemocyanin, which causes their blood to be BLUE! Ours is RED because we have a protein called hemoglobin.

THREE hearts? BLUE blood? (They could be royal descendents. Who knows?)

That’s ‘HEART’ to believe.



如果我告诉你章鱼有三颗心脏,你可能会吓了一跳!!!!

真的(我没骗你)。这就是大自然的神秘之处。你可能觉得奇怪为何上帝给了章鱼三颗心脏。你可能以為章鱼是具有爱心又善良的,因为他们有颗很大的心!

千万別误解我的意思。我沒有想拥抱章鱼,免得它用粘液和光滑的触角扼住我,使我动弹不得。也许还会朝我喷墨水呢!

那为什么章鱼有许多颗心?两颗较小的心脏可以将血液输送至鳃。血液装载了氧气后,就输送至主要的心脏。充满氧气的血液将会通过章鱼的身体被输送到体外。

你猜到了嗎?章魚的血液不像人类是红色的,而是蓝色的!这是因为章鱼的体內有一种蛋白质称为血蓝蛋白,导致他们的血液是蓝色的!而我们的血液却是红色的,这是因为我们的体內有一种蛋白质称为血红素。

三颗心脏?蓝色的血液?(他们有可能是王室的后裔哦!谁知道呢?)

真是難以置信。

EARTH DAY! 世界地球日!

What day is it today? Is it my birthday? Ok, that’s not really important (unless you plan to surprise me with a ten-tiered birthday cake with chocolate toppings).

It is EARTH DAY today! Yes, it’s really a special day to remind us how important our earth is! So important that we just shouldn’t sit there and do nothing about it! So what can you do on your part to celebrate this event?

Well, for starters, you don’t have to REALLY do anything big. There are organizations around the world holding big workshops and activities to create awareness on environmental conservation and to encourage people to protect this beautiful earth of ours.

Maybe your school is doing some ‘green’ activity, such as planting trees, or asking students to recycle unwanted tin cans and stuffs. Or maybe your Nature Society is holding a trip to the forest park to learn about nature and ways to conserve the environment.

There are lots of things you can do on Earth Day. And it DOESN’T have to be big (unless you are volunteering for a big environmental association or organization, like Greenpeace).

Remember the 3Rs? Reduce, Reuse, Recycle.

You can start by maybe not wasting so much paper. In my line of work as an editor, I HAVE to save lots of paper! We try to reduce the use of paper BECAUSE editing requires lots of paper usage (for manuscripts, printing, etc.).

And the reason we don’t want to use LOTS of paper is because TREES have to be cut down to make paper! And the more trees are cut down, the lesser trees there will be. We don’t want to ‘hurt’ the trees if we can help it! Trees are important, really. They provide shade, they supply oxygen, and they just beautify the environment. But there’s more than that.

And we reuse papers. For example, we don’t take out new clean sheets of paper when doing editing. We reuse ‘one-sided’ printed papers! That’s right! We write on the other side of the paper which is BLANK. That’s called ‘reusing’! Imagine how many tonnes of paper can be saved!

How about recycling? Well, we can recycle things we don’t need anymore, such as old newspapers, magazines, books, etc..

So how are you going to celebrate Earth Day? It doesn’t have to be boring. You can invite your friends over for an ‘Earth Day’ party.

Ask each friend to bring over their old magazines or newspapers. Ask them to put them inside a ‘special’ box, which will be sent to the recycling centre. After all that is done, you and your friends must have been pretty weary sorting out books and newspapers and stuffs!

Then, it’s time for PARTY! Go buy tasty treats (maybe a BIG cake) for yourselves, and watch a movie about the EARTH. I recommend documentaries such as “An Inconvenient Truth” by Nobel Prize laureate Al Gore. You can also watch great cartoons such as “Open Season 2”, in which it focuses on the theme of the environment (like saving the forest, etc.).

See? Isn’t that fun? It’s simple as that! But maybe you can come up with more creative ideas than me! So why not give your ideas a try?!

Our EARTH will be so proud to have eco-warriors like you!



今天是什么日子呢?是我的生日?好吧,这并不重要(除非你打算给我惊喜,送给我巧克力口味的十层高生日蛋糕)。

今天是世界地球日!是的,这真是一个特別的日子,提醒我们地球是如此重要!因此,重要的是,我们不应该坐视不管!那你可以做些什么来庆祝这个日子呢?

首先,你不需要做任何大事情。有一些分布在世界各地的组织举办大型研讨会和活动,以促进人们对自然环境保护的认识和觉醒,并鼓励人们保护这美丽的地球。

也许你的学校正在做一些“绿色”活动,如植树,或要求学生回收废弃的铁罐和物品。或者是你的自然学会举行森林公园一日遊,让大家了解大自然和保护生态环境的方法。

你可以在地球日这一天做很多事情。比如一些随手可做的小事(除非你是一個大型环境协会或组织的志工,如绿色和平组织)。

记得3R嗎?减少、再使用、回收再利用。

或許你可以从今天开始不再浪费太多的紙。像我身为一位编辑,我必须节省大量的纸张!我们尽量减少使用它,因为编辑需要使用很多纸(如手稿,印刷等)。

我们不要使用大量的纸,是因为树木被砍伐后用來制造白纸!如果树木不断被砍伐,它就会越来越少。我们可以尽己所能地不“伤害”那些树木!树木真的很重要。它们可供遮荫,提供氧气,还能美化环境,甚至不止于此。

我们重复使用纸张。例如,我们不采用新的空白纸來进行编辑工作。我们重复使用“单面”的印刷品!没错!我们写的另一面纸是空白的。这就是所谓的“再使用”!试着想象有多少吨废纸可以节省!

要如何回收再利用呢?我们可以回收不需要的东西,如旧报纸、杂志、书籍等。

你会怎么庆祝地球日呢?这一天也可以是有趣的。你可以邀请朋友出席一場“地球日”的聚会。

要求每一位朋友带來旧杂志或报纸。请他们把回收物品放在一个“特別”的箱子里,再送往回收中心。完成这些任务后,你和你的朋友想必已经非常疲累了!

接着,就是精彩的派对时间了!去买美味可口的食物(也许是大蛋糕)奖赏自己,再看一部关于地球的电影。我推荐一些纪录片,如诺贝尔和平奖得主戈尔的《绝望真相》。你也可以观赏好看的卡通电影,如《丛林大反攻2》(也有译为《狩猎季节2》),主要是以生态环境為题材(如拯救森林等)。

有趣吧?就这么简单!但是,也许你可以想出比我更好的创意哦!那为何不试试你的想法呢?!

我们的地球因为有了你这位生态勇士而感到无比光荣!

Save The Whales! 请救救鲸鱼!

It’s a cry for help! Are whales really hunted down for research? Or really for the ‘prized’ meat (which in turn becomes food)? I guess I don’t have the answers to that.

But 680 (no kidding) whales had been caught by ships since last November! 680 is really a huge number! That’s even more fish that you can eat in a year! If nothing is done to stop whaling, I have no doubt that whales will soon be an extinct clan. Just like the dinosaurs. At least whales do not have sharp, raging jaws like dinosaurs. They’re harmless, beautiful creatures! Why do people want to hunt them down? Just leave them be.

But the question really is ….. do scientists need to hunt down that many of a whale? There may be some corruptions there, as alleged. But we really don’t know for sure. There are always some chances that whale meat is “embezzled” for profitable means.

I’m glad that Greenpeace is doing something about this. The future existence of whales depends on our deep and full support. We really don’t want to see such creatures extinct from the face of the earth. If they really do, at least you can preserve their so-called existence through videos, or even your Moby Dick (remember the Blue Whale?).

But that’s just different! Getting to experience the presence of actual, real whales is much, much more awesome than seeing them on the TV. And the best part is that whales can be preserved for future generations to see!

How cool is that?

求救讯号!人们捕杀鲸鱼真的是为了研究吗?还是因为它是珍贵的海洋生物(也可变成美味的食物)?我没有答案。

然而,自去年十一月到現在,已经有680只(不骗你)鲸被捕鲸船捕获。680的确是一个大数目!这么多条鱼,甚至可以让你吃足一整年!如果再不采取任何行动阻止捕鲸的活动,我相信不久后鲸鱼將面临绝种的危机,就像恐龙一样。至少鲸鱼没有像凶猛的恐龙拥有尖锐的颌骨。它们是无害且美丽的生物!為什麼人們要追捕它们呢?放了它们吧!

但真正的问题是... ..科学家真的需要追捕大量的鲸鱼作为研究吗?这其中或许有问题。但是我们真的不知道。说不定鲸肉也有可能成为人们赚钱的工具。

我很高兴绿色和平组织重视这件事。鲸鱼的存活需要我们全力的支持。我们真的不希望看到鲸鱼从地球上消失。所以,如果人们继续捕杀鲸鱼,那你只能通過影片來保存它的影像,甚至是*白鲸哦(还记得**蓝鲸吗?)。

不过这是不同的!亲自体验真实的鲸鱼比从电视上看见来得惊人。最好的方式就是能将美丽的巨鲸留给我们的后代。

很棒吧!

ANTI-ANTS!!!! 远离蚂蚁!!!!

Wouldn’t life be great if there weren’t any ants at all? You do not have to worry about a colony of ants swarming whenever you leave sugary food on the table for too, too long. Well, in fact, there are NO ants at all in Iceland, Antarctica and Greenland! No kidding! Those places have no ants! But if you seriously have the tendency to leave sugary things around, then migrating there wouldn’t be so bad.

如果没有蚂蚁,你就不用担心你喜欢的甜食会被蜂拥而来的蚂蚁搬走,这不是很好吗?其实,冰岛、南极和格陵兰都没有蚂蚁哦!这不是骗你的!这些地方真没有蚂蚁!所以,如果你不喜欢与蚂蚁分享你的食物,可以考虑搬迁到冰岛、南极或格陵兰去哦!
