Tips of Earthquake (nationalgeographic.com)
Earthquakes are a common occurrence,
rumbling below Earth's surface thousands of times every day. But major
earthquakes are less common. Here are some things to do to prepare for an
earthquake and what to do once the ground starts shaking.
Safety Tips
•Have an
earthquake readiness plan.
•Consult a
professional to learn how to make your home sturdier, such as bolting bookcases
to wall studs, installing strong latches on cupboards, and strapping the water
heater to wall studs.
•Locate a
place in each room of the house that you can go to in case of an earthquake. It
should be a spot where nothing is likely to fall on you.
•Keep a supply
of canned food, an up-to-date first aid kit, 3 gallons (11.4 liters) of water
per person, dust masks and goggles, and a working battery-operated radio and
flashlights.
.•Know how to turn off your gas and water
mains.
If Shaking Begins
•Drop down;
take cover under a desk or table and hold on.
•Stay indoors
until the shaking stops and you're sure it's safe to exit.
•Stay away
from bookcases or furniture that can fall on you.
•Stay away
from windows. In a high-rise building, expect the fire alarms and sprinklers to
go off during a quake.
•If you are in
bed, hold on and stay there, protecting your head with a pillow.
•If you are
outdoors, find a clear spot away from buildings, trees, and power lines. Drop
to the ground.
•If you are in
a car, slow down and drive to a clear place. Stay in the car until the shaking
stops.

錢的好處與壞處
Money Pros & Cons, What do You Choose?( by Jacquelyn)
Money is good and
it can be bad as well depending on how you see it. Money is good because it can
afford you a desired lifestyle and help fund each of your life’s goals like
getting married and have a family, buying a big house or travelling around the
world.
There is no doubt
that money has more pros than cons. The bad things associated with money are
normally due to men’s greed and misused of it.
Money is bad when
for example you have to work hard and spend most of your hours slaving to earn
that money. There are people who likes working and are self-professed
workaholics. It is a matter of choice here. Others have no choice but to toil
hard to earn a living.
What’s your
choice?
The question is, given
the choice, would you want to work hard and earn lots of money to afford a
high-flying lifestyle or kick back a bit and just have enough to enjoy a
moderate lifestyle?
Different people
will choose differently depending on one’s personal desires or expectations.
Your priorities will also dictate the choice that you will make.
I used to wonder
why a person, a husband or wife, can choose to work away from home travelling
often due to work demands. The immediate impression is of a person who puts
work, career and money ahead of the family. I do not make judgments now as I
realize that my values and priorities are different from others. I prefer to be
able to stay at home and not stray far from the family. I work at a job that
does not demand that I travel around. My priorities are having a happy family
life and good health, first and foremost.
Questions:
1. Why is money so important?
2. Is money good or bad?
3. Can money buy you happiness?
4. What does money mean to you?
5. How to earn money the easy way?
6. What's most important to you , health ,
money , family or friends?
芮氏規模六點三地震
(劉偉瑩、張彩鳳、林人芳／綜合報導)
昨天下午一點四十三分，南投縣仁愛鄉發生芮氏規模六點三的地震，全臺各地都明顯感受到地震的震度。中央災害應變中心指揮官李鴻源說，截至昨天傍晚為止，地震造成一人死亡、一人遭掩埋、三人重傷、十七人輕傷。
中央氣象局地震監測課長蕭文啟指出，地震震央在南投縣仁愛鄉，距離南投縣政府東方約三十二公里，規模六點三，深度十公里，屬於板塊作用的能量釋放，相當於一點四顆原子彈的威力。
各地最大震度，雲林草嶺六級，南投、彰化、嘉義、臺中、臺南五級，花蓮、臺東、苗栗四級，臺北、新北、高雄等三級。
昨天展開能源之旅的馬英九總統，除了指派行政院副院長毛治國，前往傳出災情的嘉義及南投勘災，也立即指示內政部成立應變中心。
這場地震造成南投、雲林等山區大面積山崩，阿里山鄉豐山村有一名登山客被落石擊中死亡，竹山鎮天梯有一人重傷，高鐵六班次停駛，臺北捷運也因降低速度造成時間延誤；在道路部分，南投縣信義鄉臺十六線地利路段，出現落石道路阻斷，新中橫公路一百二十二公里到一百四十五公里處也因落石預警性封閉。公路總局昨天下午成立緊急應變小組，執行搶救災作業。
