明星代言酒類&酒駕

Tainan Mayor Lai Ching-te feels entertainers should abstain from alcohol ads (Ftv)

Tainan Mayor Lai Ching-te urged entertainers to consider civic responsibilities when accepting endorsement deals. In particular, he singled out Jody Chiang, Chang Fei and Jolin Tsai as celebrities who should avoid advertising alcoholic beverages.

Pop star Jolin Tsai’s endorsement of local beer is intended to appeal to young Taiwanese, though Tainan Mayor Lai Ching-te believes celebrities shouldn’t accept alcohol endorsement deals. He thinks such actions could compromise the government’s efforts to curb drunk driving.

Lai Ching-te
Tainan Mayor
We hope celebrities avoid alcohol endorsements because these compromise their social responsibility. Previously, Jay Chou refused to do beer advertisements, and his song "Cowboy on the Run" even includes the lyric that he doesn’t order alcohol when in a bar because beer can harm the body.

Lai named Jody Chiang as one entertainer who advertises alcoholic beverage. While Chiang didn’t respond to Lai’s comments, her good friend KMT Legislator Lo Shu-lei was quick to defend her.

Lo Shu-lei
KMT Legislator
Entertainers don’t advocate drunk driving. They only represent a particular alcohol brand. And do we rush to drink because this entertainer endorses alcohol? I think only those who drink alcohol will go out and drink.

Some legislators agree with Lai’s opinion.

Wang Yu-min
KMT Legislator
Basically my opinion is similar to Mayor Lai’s. I hope (artists) carefully choose what they endorse.

Instead of agreeing to alcohol ads, Lai believes entertainers should work with the government to promote more public messages about the perils of drunk driving.

Ways to Bring Good Luck Into Your Life  By Sandra Grauschopf

 Feng Shui Lets Luck Flow 

Feng Shui is an ancient Chinese art designed to bring balance, health, and even luck to the people who practice it. Some dismiss feng shui as superstition, but the principles of this art can help you to be more productive, more positive, and less distracted.

For example, one of the principles of feng shui is that clutter has a negative effect on your energy levels. And it's true - a messy, disorganized area makes it difficult to find what you need and to concentrate on your work.

Lucky Charms and Rituals 

Many sweepers swear that they have increased their luck by wearing a favorite pair of socks or t-shirt as they enter sweepstakes, or by having lucky symbols like four-leafed clovers, ladybugs, or even Troll dolls near their computers while they enter. Still others perform some kind of lucky rituals before they start their daily sweepstakes. But this is superstitious nonsense, right?

Not necessarily. Using lucky charms and rituals makes you feel luckier, happier, and more optimistic. This positive attitude makes it easier to keep entering sweepstakes, and thus improves your chances of winning.

Increase Your Karma, Get Luckier 

Karma is one of the principle tenets of Hindu philosophy, but it can be simply summarized as, "What Goes Around, Comes Around." In other words, if you do good things, more good things happen to you and the luckier you'll be.

In sweepstakes terms, many sweepers promote good karma by sharing trivia answers and UPC codes, posting links to new sweepstakes, and doing everything they can to help others win. While it might seem to be smarter in the short run to keep the contests and answers that you find to yourself, everyone needs some help and encouragement at some point. Helping each other to win increases the luck of the entire sweepstakes community.

Increasing Luck Through Spirituality and Prayer 

Many people turn to a greater power to help them increase their luck. Some say a prayer before they start to enter sweepstakes, asking God to help them win what they need, or to help the prize go to the person who needs it most. Some feel that asking God for specific prizes is inappropriate, but ask instead for the strength and the positive attitude they need to not give up and to keep entering sweepstakes.

Work Harder, Be Luckier 

Thomas Jefferson said, "I am a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work, the more I have of it." It sounds almost like he could have been a sweeper! The more work you put into entering sweepstakes, the less you need to rely on luck. The amount of luck you need to win when you enter a single sweep is much greater than the amount you need if you enter a few hundred a day.

Hard work is the secret to winning sweepstakes. By being patient, persistent, and having a positive attitude, you'll see many more lucky results with your sweepstakes entries.
