Every 15 minutes
4/30 at 3 p.m., I boarded the bus. A total of three teachers and 43 students went to Pumphreys Funeral Home (http://www.pumphreyfuneralhome.com/history.html) then retreat house. We went to the Rockville location and funeral director Bob showed us around and explained the funeral processes and costs. He is a great speaker.
The retreat house was near Potomac River in the woods and was beautiful. We got there an hour late and parents already had snacks and drinks ready for us (thanks).
First speaker was Lisa Bard (http://www.lisabard.com/) at around 4:35. You can read the details by following the link and read her long bio. She gave gifts such as pins, star fish...
Mrs. Sandy Myers spoke next with a powerpoint presentation. She is the older sister of Nicole Lee.(http://www.love4nicki.com/). She said that young folks need 9 hours each night to sleep. Many of them do not get that. 30% driving fatalities are due to drowsy driving (More than caused by text msgg). Some resources memtioned or found: http://ut.zerofatalities.com/index.php/index.php, http://www.tompkins-co.org/wellness/drowsydriving/Links.htm.
After a pizza dinner, we "heard" from Sheila Deriso, R.N. of Montgomery General. She gave a lot of practical but "in-depth" information about drinking. Major items are, "Off-switch, Perception, Coordination, and Protective Reflex". Many tools and skills were shown. A very powerful speech with humor.
Keri Roth then spoke about her experience with her brother;s accident and her journey since the tragedy. She was really crying and the entire experience was moving. (9:30 p.m.)
Only students stayed with a program of some kind.
Students started writing their speeches. Adults helped correcting some. A 11, we moved to an area next to one of the dorms. Students finished and 16 of them rehearsed their speeches. Very good work. We went to bed after 12 while rain started.
We arrived school at 7:20 in the rain on May 1. Folks rehearsed and our program started at 9:20 or so.

Differentiation
During the meeting, I recommended that we put students in appropriate courses instead of putting them in higher math courses.
Someone said, "Then you will find minorities put in lower courses and white students in higher courses".
I asked, "Are teachers biased or white students are smarter?"

每天半碗薏仁 可抑制癌細胞
更新日期:2009/04/12 22:07
吃對東西,真的可以越吃越健康。薏仁不但可以消水腫,專家研究還發現,每天吃半碗薏仁,可以抗癌,薏仁上的麩皮,能夠抑制大腸癌和肺癌細胞的生長。(非常好的研究,可是中醫在千年以前就知道了,所謂甘淡滲利為陽,所以薏仁就是屬陽,陽虛之後才現陰實,民眾每天吃這陽性食物,自然不會陽虛,就不會有陰實了。)
夏天快到了,吃下一碗冰冰涼涼的薏仁,健康又吃的飽。以往被認為有消除水腫作用的薏仁,其實功效不只如此,台大教授進行長期的動物實驗,發現吃糙薏仁的麩皮,罹癌率可以大大降低。
薏仁是穀類,可當主食或加入米飯烹煮,如果換算體重六十公斤重的成人,每天只要吃半碗份量,大約六十公克的糙薏仁,就可以預防大腸癌、肺癌,並抑制癌細胞的生長。(這是對人類非常有貢獻的研究。)
一般人喜歡選購大顆、進口的薏仁,但大部分都已去除麩皮,不如本土糙薏仁營養有效,不過薏仁畢竟是食品不是藥品,要有耐心持之以恆的吃,對健康才有幫助。(記者陳美喬、蕭鈺燁報導)
超好的研究
請專家們多多做些這方面的研究,這才是對人類最有貢獻的研究,本草經言 : 甘淡滲利為陽。病變的過程就是先陰虛,而後陽虛,經年陽虛的結果就會出現陰實,而陰實就是得到癌症的意思了,所以按照中醫的理論,如果可以在陽虛的階段就下手治療,將陽虛補足,就沒有陰實了,所以按照中醫的理論,所有能補陽的食品或是中藥,都是可以預防癌症的。
