Determine the purpose of your plants.

 

Different plants can do different things for you. If you mainly want to brighten a space, you'll probably want a flowering plant or one with colorful, variegated leaves. If you're looking to remove as much carbon dioxide--or add as much oxygen--as possible, you should look for a green plant with a lot of leaf area.

 

 

Certain plants, such as the Areca palm, Kentia palm or Dracaena 'Janet Craig' are exceptionally effective at removing airborne chemicals commonly found in offices.

Here's a short list of some commonly successful office plants to consider:

• Ivy
• Philodendron
• Peace lillies
• Spider plants
• Aloe vera
• Aroid palm
• Wave petunias
• Dragon trees
• Crotons

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Out with the old and in with the new

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Out with the old and in with the new

I flow with the changes and stand for what's true

Rooted deep and reaching wide

I welcome this new cycle's tide

 

 

Hmmm...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Nanotech

 

 

 

Nanotechnology or in short "Nanotech" maybe the next wave that will spur the economic growth and push up the stock market. It may be the impetus for the next bull-run just like every period of technology advancement did for past few decades or so. For example, the period of invention and production of electricity followed by the industrialization and mass production of goods. The recent tech cycle which we are still in, is the information technology cycle which covers telecommunication, computer, World Wide Web, internet and the dot com era which bring communication and sharing of information to an advance level that we yet seen before.

So what is Nanotech about?

The basic of definition of Nanotech is the engineering of functional systems at the molecular scale. It deals with structures sized between 1 to 100 nanometers in at least one dimension, and involves developing materials or devices within that size.

What can Nanotechnology do or use for?

Most of the application of nanotechnology involves electronic product, however, there is no limit of what nanotechnology can do. Some of the nanotechnology application includes sensors, biomedical devices, medicine, materials science, agriculture, power generation and much more. It is going to have a significant impact on almost every industries and every level of society in the world which makes the invention and development of nanotechnology so exciting.

Nanotechnology involves a very small and minutes atomic and molecular particles that cannot be seen by the naked eye.



Like the nanotech which is minuscule and yet it can do things larger than life that we cannot ever imagine.


However, nanotech is still subject to further development and changes of the nanotechnology itself and the industries involve and materials use to make it.

In term of health, nanotechnology helps enhancing the progress of medical advancements and inventions which offers a better medical treatment. In the future it may help to eliminate or reduce those incurable diseases like cancer, leukemia, heart disease and HIV/AIDS. With the increase in living standard and better health treatment by nanotechnology, it is likely to drive the life expectancy to higher level from the current world average age of 69.


For example, stem cell is already used to treat heart disease and cancer at the moment. With the combine technology of nano, it may revolutionise the used of stem cell in curing heart disease and cancer treatment. It also may reduce the cost of medication further, thus, making it affordable to the masses.

All the above is still debatable at the moment and depends very much of future development of nanotech. Who knows what the future will hold? However, we know for the fact that things will change indefinitely.

"When it comes to the future, there are three kinds of people: those who let it happen, those who make it happen, and those who wonder what happened." by John M. Richardson, Jr.   

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Music in our lives

 

What is the reason?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime.

When you know which one it is, you will know what to do for that person.

 

 

 

 

 

When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed.

 

Who are they?

Teachers...

 

They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend and they are. They are there for the reason you need them to be.

 

Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand.

 

This sounds cruel but it happens! 

 

So, what we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it is time to move on.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Some people come into your life for a SEASON.

 

Why?  ... because your turn has come to share, grow or learn.

 

They bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it, it is real. But only for a season.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons.

 

Things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thank you for being a part of my life, whether you were here for a reason, a season or a lifetime.

In Greece, she is called Demeter and the Egyptian calls her  Isis.  

The Tibetans refers to her as Tara and the Hindus calls her Shakti.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Power Couple

Who are they?

They are the "Power Couple" in Beijing.

 

He is born in a rural village in Tianshui in Gansu Province on 14 November 1963. While she is born in Beijing on 24 August 1965 and later on move to Hong Kong at the age of 14.

 

 

They are no other than the husband, Pan Shiyi (潘石屹), and wife, Zhang Xin (张欣), the property estate tycoons. Theirs is a love story of rag-to-riches.

In 1995, both of them co-founded the company called Hongshi, later renamed to SOHO China in 2002.


The starting of the SOHO China is not an easy one.

It also put a strained into the marriage life.

Nevertheless, the company has jump started them to billionaire status.

However, their partnership does work-out successfully whether in business or in thier marriage.

 

 

The China Central Television or CCTV, the most famous television network in China, has described Pan Shiyi as "the most eye-catching real estate developer, though he is not the richest". He has been described by many as a "tireless self-promoter".

 

His wife has taken-on the construction work which is suitable for her as she is a person who can endure hardship with their hard-working nature.

 

As their marriage and business are based on friendship, both of their lives have cross path and now moving on together. You can call this meeting of a soul mate or in Chinese "Yuan 缘" though it may not base on love.

Affinity?  Fate?  Destiny?.........
