＜ 李登輝出招 全部投台聯 ＞
　　On Friday morning, former president Lee Teng-hui spent the last 24 hours before the election rallying for TSU candidates in the southern district of Taipei City. When asked about rumors of bomb threats, Lee said that the bombers had mental problems. As for vote allocation, several days ago Lee was still calling for the "husbands vote for DPP and wives vote for TSU" method, but on the day before the election, Lee suddenly changed his tune, asking the entire family to vote for TSU candidates. Lee will also be attending a last-minute evening rally in Taipei County on the night before the election.

＜ 塑膠墊有毒 吸入會致癌 ＞
　　This type of plastic padding can be found in many homes to prevent children from falling and injuring themselves. But a Japanese report recently warned the public that the padding may contain harmful ingredients like formaldehyde or toluene, which, breathed in over the long term, may have detrimental effects on health or even cause cancer. Consumers should also beware of foam padding or cushioning in sofas or mattresses, which may also contain volatile, non-water soluble ingredients. The Consumers Foundation reminds the public to avoid purchasing plastic padding which have a strong chemical or plastic smell, and to make sure air circulation is adequate in rooms containing plastic padding. Furthermore, sun exposure can help to detoxify the padding.

　　這種塑膠軟墊幾乎很多人家裡都有，因為就算小朋友在上頭跑跑跳跳也不必擔心跌倒撞傷頭，不過日本卻警告民眾，這種塑膠墊子裡可能含有揮發性的甲醛和甲苯，長期吸入的話不但有害健康而且可能致癌. 另外像是沙發和床墊中的泡綿軟墊，也可能含有揮發物質，用水洗也洗不掉，也讓家長非常擔心. 消基會提醒消費者購買塑膠墊時，如果聞到嗆鼻的塑膠味，可能就含有有毒的 揮發性甲苯，除了不要在密閉空間中使用之外，如果真的要使用，最好先在通風的地方曝晒太陽，直到沒有異味為止.

＜ 電腦放膝上 男生會不孕 ＞
　　Using laptop this way would decrease man's sperm count by 40% in every 15 minutes. This is not a joke. A medical research conducted by New York State University showed that put laptop on laps would decrease number of sperm count. 29 men were asked to put a laptop on their laps and continuously use it for an hour. Result was the temperature of all 29 men's right and left scrotum increased by 2 degrees in Celsius. The temperature of the laptops even went as high as 40 degrees Celsius. Doctors warn everyone to better keep a distance with the high technology products. To put the laptop on the table rather than on the laps is the smart way to do.

Now, the city council is afraid that Guggenheim Museum will not make profit, thus decided to hand this case to the central government. Taichung city mayor Jason Hu sighned and said he wants to meet with President Chen next week for some further explaination. City councils said no to the project because they are do not want to afford the risk of getting into financial difficulty. But the mayor have faith in the project, he believes the museum will make money. He said now only the central government could solve this problem. On December 16, Guggenheim Museum Foundation will hold another meeting. Whether there is any more changes before December 16th, obsevation is undertaking.

＜ 竹科電子業 不孕比例高 ＞
　　　　This is Cathay General Hospital. In Hsinchu, centers for reproductive medicine and infertility are filled with patients like this every day. Most patients are engineers from the nearby Science Park. Or, what press calls, "electronic nobles." It seems that males who work in the Hsinchu Science Park are more susceptible to infertility than the average male. Doctors say that salaries at the Science Park may be lucrative, but an equal amount of pressure comes with the territory. Most engineers marry at later ages, which further decreases chances of having a baby. Among couples from the Science Park, one in three have difficulty bearing a baby. The ratio is 10 percent more than the national infertility rate. As a result, many couples resort to medical science. It isn't unusual to see patients undergo artificial insemination. It seems that, despite the prestige, members of the Science Park community still have their share of everyday troubles.

＜ 星機票大戰 來回一千六 ＞
　　　　Since morning phones in travel agencies could not stop ringing, because everyone was calling to ask for the low fare tickets by JetStar Asia from Taipei to Singapore. Now you may wonder how low is the low airfare. Don't be surprised, it's 1788 nt to fly from Taipei to Singapore in the first week of the promotion.
However, the airline does not offer any food to passengers. Seats are narrower and there's only one departure time everyday, which is departing in evening and arriving to to Singapore in midnight. So travellers need to spend one more night of hotel fee. Maybe it's not that worthwhile if you calculate everything. This promotion by JetStar Airline had made an impact to the market. Singapore Airline also came out with a promotion of Taipei and Singapore round trip ticket for only 1688 nt dollars starting now until January 20th. Taiwan's Eva Airline and China Airline did not follow, with ticket price still selling for 11,000 nt to 12,000 nt. The cheap airfare offer JetStar Asia does not include airport tax. Therefore, passengers have to add 3000 nt to the ticket price. For those who want to travel but don't want to spend much, this is the perfect chance.

　　　　一大早,旅行社的電話聲不斷,因為大家都是打電話來詢問由捷星亞洲航空台北到新加坡的低價機票。所謂的低價真的會讓你跌破眼鏡，起航第一周，飛新加坡只要1788元不只沒餐點，機上位子也比較小，航班時間也是傍晚起飛，到新加坡已經深夜，要多花住宿費。也許算一算，不見得划算，但已經對市場造成衝擊，新航也推出來回1688元。即日起到一月二十號。而國內兩家航空公司長榮和華航,目前還在觀望,沒有跟進,票價還是維持在一萬一到一萬二。捷星亞洲航空推出這麼便宜的票價,不過並沒有包含機場稅等項目，加一加還是要三千多元，儘管如此，還是真的很便宜。想要搶便宜的遊客可得把握機會！

＜ 尋找太平輪 追思和徵人 ＞
　　　　During the civil turmoils in Mainland China in the years of 1945-1950, the Pacific Ship traveled between Shanghai and Keelung, transportingover 2 million Mainlanders, with theirgold and silver, to Taiwan in search of refuge. In those days, Pacific Ship played a crucial role in the conveyance
of passengers across the Strait. In 1949, just as the ship embarked from Shanghai, full of passengers and cargo, it clashed into trade boats around the 舟山 islands. It resulted in the tragic deaths of 1500 passengers. To this day, family members have difficulty accepting the fact. There were 36 people who were rescued at the time. Ms. Chang was one of them. To commemorate the incident, the party central of the DPP invited families of those who died to East Coast Pier in Keelung to offer flowers to the Pacific Ship memorial. As it has been well over 50 years since the incident occured, it isn't easy gathering historical facts. The Pacific Ship Incident Team calls out to anyone who has had contact with the ship or those involved, to come forward and help piece together the facts.

柔軟的撫摸輕輕的問候
悠緩地度過我們下次的約期

夜夜你以螢光的夢呼喚我

總青過那層層優柔寡斷的水草
我們的足跡鮮少眷戀

靜靜品嘗聆聽彼此的呼吸

在數位化的愛情裡一語成讖

隔著一面玻璃般的歷史

不必換氧的愛戀我們環保地生存

＜ 國民黨配票 緊繃北北高 ＞
　　In Taipei City, where the legislative race runs its tightest, pan-blues will deploy vote allocation in an effort to win majority. On Tuesday morning, the KMT announced its newest strategy. Constituents are classified by birth dates, with votes assigned to 8 candidates from the KMT and New Party. The KMT has released its first advertisement of the scheme. But before it was released, the People First Party used extensive media to urge voters to return to the PFP and cast the ballot their way, as they did last year. The action has officially substantiated tensions between the KMT and PFP. With rivalry from a fellow pan-blue party and rumors of a "dump-save" strategy, the pan-blue camp is seeing splinters in its unity.

The surgery solved the urinary problem he has had for many years. Probably because Grandpa Huang is an optimistic person; he recovered very quickly and well. He had done the same surgery 20 years ago, but in recent years discomfort recurred again. He had to use a urine tube every time he goes to bathroom. It caused many inconvenience in daily life and therefore he decided to undergo the surgery in such old age. Doctor evaluated Mr. Huang's condition and also recommended him to do the surgery. It is common for the prostate gland to become enlarged as a man ages. Urine frequency and trouble urinating are the syndromes for prostate hypertrophy patients. If not cured on time, it may lead to leukemia or undergo kidney dialysis. If there is an old man at your home with the above described symptoms, it is best to bring him to hospital for check up as soon as possible.

President of R.O.C. CHEN SHUI-BIAN (Don't let the pan-blue camp get the majority in the legislature again. They can pass a decision in the legislature a special case for making Lien and Soong the President and Vice President, and eliminate three motions to get rid of Chen Shui-bian. Can they be allowed to do this? Can the Legislative Yuan do this? )

FORMER PRESIDENT OF R.O.C. LEE TUNG-HUI (If there was no allocation of votes, we'll do the automatic allocation of votes ourselves. All husbands vote for DPP and all wives vote for TSU.)

Just a few hours after former President Lee said those words, President Chen also arrived to Shinchu for a campaign rally, this time for DPP candidate 柯建銘. As oppose to former President Lee, President Chen asked voters not to allocate votes. The two scenes resembled competition in Pan-Green. Would it affect the unity in Pan-Green? DPP headquarter answered no. DPP revealed, though DPP and TSU are competing for votes right now, but on the day before the election, Chen and Lee will stand together on the same stage holding hands, pleading for votes. By then everyone will see that Pan-Green is united.

As the arrangement implies disunity in the pan-blue camp, speculation has risen as to how it will continue to operate as a joint body. Joining the distribution will be Taichung City, Kaohsiung County, Pingdong County and Tainan City. The counties of Taoyuan, Miaoli, Chunghwa, Yunlin, Taichung and Tainan will resort to regional vote distribution. Jiayi County and Hsinchu County will not participate in the plan; other cities to be named will be discussed in detail. On the PFP side, its own vote distribution strategy will be announced. One candidate has volunteered to share votes, but under the condition of sacrificing the least likely winning candidate.

＜ 超強冷氣團 淡水最低溫 ＞
　　　　The continental cold front revealed itself in full force in Tamsui on Sunday evening, pulling temperatures down to this winter's record low of 11.4 degrees Celsius. The cold persisted through Monday morning, when temperature still gauged at 11.5 degrees Celsius. In the plains of Jiayi, the cold remained at 12.4 degrees. According to the Central Weather Bureau, Monday evening will be accompanied by even colder weather. That explains the thick sweaters seen on commuters in the city. But the fact is, weather conditions during the day are quite warm. In the north, temperatures returned to 21 degrees; in Central and Southern Taiwan, it reached a high of 26 degrees. The cold front has only appeared from evening until early morning, causing a great difference in day and night time temperatures. The cold will last until Wednesday.

＜ 父母親肥胖 子女大多胖 ＞
　　　　Most people want to be in the best possible physical shape, but it isn't necessarily an easy goal to achieve. 1400 junior high school students were studied by a doctor from Hualien's 慈濟 Hospital. The results of the study showed that children of obese parents are much more likely to become obese. Furthermore, children of diabetic parents, particularly diabetic mothers, have a higher likelihood of developing diabetes after age 20. Because the eating habits of parents have a great influence on the growth of children, doctors urge obese youths to seek medical advice for any discomfort experienced. Doctors also recommend that obese parents should eat balanced meals and exercise regularly for the sake of their own and their children’s' health. Obese people should also pay extra attention to any physical changes that may occur.

　　　　每個人都希望也好身材，不過想要身材不肥胖，又要健康不是這麼容易，您知道嗎？根據花蓮慈濟醫院針對花蓮市1400位國中學童的調查分析後發現，父母的體重超過標準值所生出來的子女容易肥胖的比例要超過一般在正常體重值的父母。另外，如果父母本身患有糖尿病，子女在20歲以後得病的機率也很高，尤其是母親對於子女的影響更大。因為父母飲食的行為也會影響到小朋友的生長，所以醫生也呼籲身材肥胖的年輕學生們，只要有身體不適的狀況最好及早檢查，而如果您本身就是體重過重的父母，為了您自己及孩子的健康，還是建議您要均衡營養，多做運動、生活規律、更重要的是隨時注意自己的身體變化。

＜ 新聖誕公車 今天要上路 ＞
　　　　These are jolly bus drivers getting ready to give kids a big surprise on Monday morning. To celebrate the holiday season, Capital Bus had its 500 bus drivers dress up as Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus to treat children to candies and treats. The children are ecstatic at the sight of their favorite holiday characters. What's more, the buses are decorated with Christmas trees and lights. Bus rides are turned into a fun excursion! As bus operators have had to share business with the MRT system, the holiday festivity is an attempt at attracting more customers. Last year, the Christmas buses increased the number of passengers by 5 percent. In the season of love and joy, a win-win for businesses and consumers is the perfect holiday gift.

＜ 內湖派出所 將要列古蹟 ＞
　　　　This Japanese-looking architecture is the Nei Hu local police station. This police station was originally a business office for Japanese when Taiwan was a colony of Japan. After the Japanese left, this office became the local police station for Nei Hu residents. And because the architecture is getting old, Nei Hu district office planned to tear it town and construct new office building. However, staffs of Cultural and Historical Committee wish this historical architecture could stay untouched. The staffs and Nei Hu borough warden began arguing. One of the staffs named 陳金讚 even shaved his head to show his determination in saving the historical architecture. Unlike the staffs Of Cultural and Historical Committee, nearby residents have long wanted the police station and the nearby old architectures to demolish for new development planning. Exactly what to do to satisfy both parties, and whether the architectures are to stay or demolish, both parties need to sit down and collaborate for a better plan.

　　　　這棟看起來日本味十足的房子，就是引起地方關注的內湖派出所。內湖派出所在日據時代就興建完成，是當時日本人辦公的地方，由於房子已經老舊，內湖區公所規劃拆除，要興建新的大樓，但是有文史工作人員希望搶救古蹟，和里長吵了起來。吵完了，文史工作者陳金讚，為了宣示搶救古蹟的決心，當場落髮。因為內湖派出所這一排，都是老舊的建築物，附近居民擔心妨害社區發展，才發動更新的規劃，希望拆除派出所改建成公民會館。到底古蹟拆還是不拆，要怎麼讓兩方的堅持都能滿意，可能還需要好好協調。

瑞士公投支持幹細胞研究

▌瑞士公投支持幹細胞研究▌
　　瑞士公民在週日以公民投票的方式，通過支持開放人類胚胎幹細胞研究用於醫學研究，獲得66.4％民眾支持。這是全球首次將高度爭議的人胚胎幹細胞研究問題交由公投表決。　　瑞士政府和醫界在投票前即呼籲大眾支持開放這項研究，政府認為研究人類胚胎幹細胞將有助於心臟病、糖尿病、帕金森氏症及老年癡呆症等疾病的研究與治療，而瑞士一向在生物技術具有優勢。　　公投法案中也嚴禁相關研究利用於複製人的用途，並禁止胚胎買賣。公開反對這項法案者主要是宗教團體及右翼團體，他們認為人類胚胎亦是生命，開放研究將逾越傳統道德和倫理的界線。

一夜無夢 / Leon

一夜無夢 / Leon
─────────────────────────────────
妳喜愛流浪
流浪在
我無夢的夜裡
今晚妳逸出我夢中，翼展在
一個我無能跟隨的夜空
無聲無息
彷彿令一個宇宙

即便墜落，也想必
一種歸鄉式的
拜訪
也或許，妳喜愛流浪
和永恆的靜默


讓我安眠吧
當妳歸來時，我該如何
在沒有妳的夜
渴求
，傾聽那首
唱不完的哀歌
如死者一般，且，望著
看不完的深邃和又一次
看不完的深邃
和，看不完的深邃

入睡
聽妳流浪的
故事之後
伴我無夢的夏夜
讓遙遠的星子
，在另一個我的無夢
，抑或
讓妳走入
抑或
醒在一個
沒有妳的早晨
