寿司は日本料理ですが、起源タイだそうです。元々は魚お米に漬けて一緒に発酵させる保存食だったそうです。
壽司雖是日本料理,但据說是起源於泰國。原本是一種將魚肉放入米飯中醃漬,讓兩者一起發酵,並長久保存的食物。
タイでは米は食べませんが、日本では一緒に食べるようになぃました。発酵には時間がかかるので、即席で作るためにご飯に酢を混ぜるようになぃました。それが日本独特の酢飯です。
不過,在泰國不吃米飯,在日本則變成一起吃。但因為發酵耗費時間,為了馬上就能做好,便改變成在白飯中加醋混合,這是日本獨有的醋飯。
酢飯の上に、魚だけでなく色々なネタを乗せて食べるようになり、今の形になったそうです。握り寿司(関東)、巻き寿司(関西)の他に丼にした散らし寿司もあります。
醋飯上面不只放魚肉, 還會放上各式各樣的食材一起吃,就形成了現今壽司的樣貌。種類包括關東的握壽司,關西的捲壽司,另外還有做成蓋飯的散壽司。

男人, 真的要似番一個男人.
一個男人是否一個幹大事的人, 從道歉與承擔中, 能看得一清二楚.
節錄自Cosmo talk & share by 陳詠燊 @Sunnyhahaha
一個男人被揭發有外遇, 無從否認, 決定道歉.以下是香港名人的外遇回應金句:
當事人一: 我過去在個人感情上曾經有缺失.
當事人二:意識到我這次的錯誤並非如一些損友所說是技術上不小心, 而是結構上出現了明顯的中年危機.
當事人三:我做錯咗全世界好多男人都做錯咗嘅嘢.
當事人一選擇在罪名的形容上下工夫, 將 “我以前係外面搞女人” 提升成文學層次, 用缺失代替了過失, 暗地將罪名的責任含糊化. 過失甚至滾等名詞是有突顯其一方面錯誤, 而感情缺失卻是中性, 等如iPhone外瞉花了, 是出了狀況, 但原因與責任誰郤沒有表明, 這是欠缺男子氣概的推缷方法.
當事人二將外遇推到醫學層次..將罪名賴到大腦. 神經線與內分泌等這些無從作供的器官頭上, 根本是死無對證式的推卸方法.
當事人三, 同樣將責任推到學術角度, 不過是統計學. 他表面上沒有推卸責任, 實際上卻將罪名的普及性擴大, 推至 “全世界好男人” 頭上. 全世界約七十億人, 如有一半是男人的話, 而"好多" 即至少多於一半, 那麼即21億人. 為了將罪名平凡化, 將21億人同時拉成共犯, 他的說法, 可算是供出了史上最龐大的犯罪集團. 一個人若有21億名黨羽, 相信可以成功爭取到了全球外遇合理化了. 這樣的推卸方法, 相信是三人之中最厚顔的罷.
男人犯了錯, 始終還是直接承擔所有責任才算是誠意.
當事人四: In fact, it was wrong. It constituted a critical lapse in judgment and a personal failure on my part for which I am solely and completely responsible.

The Man Who Mistakes His Wife For A Hat - Oliver Sacks
好書介紹
The Man Who Mistook His Wife For a Hat
The man who mistook his wife for a hat. The book is a collection of 24 case histories of patients suffering from various degree of brain damage. The author, Oliver Sacks, comes from a family of doctors and scientists. He himself has been a neurologist all his life. Doctor aside, he is also a highly successful writer, The man being his best known book. It has been translated into 22 languages and turned into a drama and an opera as well.
What is so special about this book is that it bridges the gap between literary and scientific writing. On several occasions, Sacks emphasized that his goal in writing was to humanize medicine. So you won't be reading clinical reports packed with difficult jargon. Instead, you will find real life accounts of people trying to adjust to their neurological impairments. His narrative is clear, humane and at times moving.
There is Dr. P, a distinguished music professor with a tumor in the visual part of his brain. Dr. P can't recognize ordinary objects and faces. He can't tell a glove is a glove, a shoe is a shoe and as the title says, mistakes his wife's head for his own hat. There is also Mrs. S, a woman in her sixties, who, after a severe stroke, has completely lost the idea of "the left." She can only eat from the right half of the plate and see the right half of her face when she looks in a mirror. When she puts on makeup, naturally she can only do the right part of her face, neglecting the other half. There is Ray in his twenties suffering from a disease called Tourette's Syndrome which subjects him to violent tics (or twitching of muscles) and using crude abusive language at split-second intervals. He has been a social outcast since he was a child.
How can these people get on with their ordinary lives? Is there a cure to their conditions? You may wonder.
Dr. P has lost his power to visualize things as we do, but strangely, his great gift for music is still intact. This inner rhythm helps him move and act fluently. He does everything singing to himself, whether it's eating, putting on clothes or taking a bath. When his attention is interrupted, he comes to a complete standstill and can only carry on when he starts humming to himself again. Dr P remains an able and a well-loved music teacher until the end of his life.
As for Mrs. S, she figures out strategies to deal with her inability to look left or understand anything that has to do with "the left." What she does is to turn right and right through a circle, until the missing half of the thing comes into view. She uses a specially designed rotating wheelchair to help her. Although it doesn't solve all her problems, she gets by.
The young Ray is a bit more fortunate. With the help of medicine, he can live a normal working and married life. Ironically, he finds this renewed life too boring for him. When he suffered from Tourette's Syndrome, he excelled at Ping Pong and other games. He was musical, creative and full of energy. Now his life lacks these qualities. He and his doctor, Sacks, work out a compromise. Ray takes medicine Mondays through Fridays and becomes calm, sober and socially acceptable during the working week. On weekends, he is off medicine and in his own words, "let fly."
Other accounts on the life of the "simple" are just as engrossing. John and Michael are twins. They have been diagnosed as autistic and severely retarded since the age of seven. They receive no education and have IQs as low as 60. A pair of hopeless idiots, in the eyes of many. Yet, they possess incredible talents with numbers. Give them a date anytime in the past or future 40,000 years, then they will tell you instantly whether it is a Monday, Tuesday or Friday. People call them the ultimate "calendar calculator." You can drop a box of matches on the table in front of them and they will both cry at the same time, " 111." They murmur "37" three times, and repeat "111." When asked how they can count so quickly, they just say, "We didn't count. We saw 111." They are correct, 3 X 37 equals 111. Something obviously is at work in the brain of the twin brothers. Just exactly what it is, nobody knows.
As you read on, you notice that Oliver Sacks is not interested in treatment and cure. Most of his patients suffer incurable damage. All he does is to help them adapt to their changed lives and work out a new pattern of life. He shows that these afflicted people are dignified human beings who deserve neither pity nor fear, but respect. They are the true heroes of his book.
If you want to take a glimpse of the world of these characters, The man who mistook his wife for a hat is the book for you. The Library holds both the English (RC351 .S195 1998) and Chinese versions《錯把太太當帽子的人》(RC351 .S19512 1996). In case you want to read more of these clinical tales, there is a sister book, An anthropologist on Mars : seven paradoxical tales (RC351 .S1948 1995), also by Oliver Sacks.
