上佳牛扒馆 Morton's攻打海鲜市场 (2010-11-13) 要在本地吃到风味特佳的牛扒,很多老饕马上想到的就是文华东方酒店的Morton's牛扒房。这家以提供上佳牛扒为豪的高档餐馆最近为了迎合更多食客口味而扩充食谱,推出海鲜主打的另类餐点。惊喜的是,海鲜美食的水准,和Morton's的传统牛扒难分轩轾。 走进Morton's,第一个印象就像进入了上世纪40年代美国的Big Band时代一般。深色木家具的点缀,昏暗的灯光,古早白色的桌布,排列整齐的餐具,到处显露一丝不苟的西洋气息,让人联想到美国的牛扒和红酒。来到这里,很自然地想点招牌牛扒,但此行目的却非牛扒。 更大更多更鲜的海鲜 1997年在新加坡落户的Morton's,是该集团在亚洲的第一个据点。13年来,它已是顶级牛扒的象征。现在,为了让顾客有更多选择,餐馆扩展食谱,而海鲜开始成为了它的另一大特色。 就座后,友善的侍应生将当天的活海产呈现在桌旁,看着生龙活虎的龙虾和螃蟹,心中竟然有些不忍。选择忘掉一闪而过的情绪,点了一客海鲜拼盘(Ocean Platter),送上来是满满一盘鲜味。 这个冰冻拼盘和其他餐馆的相似,有生蚝、龙虾肉、蟹肉、虾只,还有阿拉斯加帝王蟹脚。特点是,更大、更多、更鲜。经过冷处理的海鲜并没有任何腌制,肉质的香甜一涌而出,马上让胃口大开。其中,鲜虾只和生蚝尤其让人着迷,蘸上三种特制酱料,更将其鲜味勾勒出来。 四人份海鲜拼盘(175元)看起来虽然分量大,但边吃边聊,不一会儿清洁溜溜,而且加重了对正餐的期待。 智利鲈鱼(Chilean Sea Bass,69元)烘烤得恰到好处,雪白柔滑的鱼肉配上黄梨掺杂青椒的Salsa酱,酸酸甜甜营造满口芬芳。厌倦了大鱼大肉的朋友,应该会向往这份清香。 顶级牛肉 肥膏似雪花 来到Morton's,不尝试牛扒实在说不过去。它以提供一律为USDA顶级谷饲的牛肉著称,只有2%最上等的牛肉被列入这个等级,牛肉上的肥膏似乎雪花,美得让人垂涎。菜单上,超过十种牛扒供选择,太过眼花缭乱?不要紧,侍应生带着各种新鲜牛肉到桌旁,为你即时上一堂牛肉识别入门课。 点了一客New York Strip Steak(118元)和 Cajun Ribeye Steak(92元), 前者尝出了顶级牛肉的嫩、甜、滑、鲜;后者以美国南部的传统Cajun香料腌制,香辣厚重的口味搭配肥牛肉,很合亚洲人口味。 为了统一素质,世界各地的Morton's餐馆从牛肉筛选到烹煮过程都遵从一套标准,连食物分量也不例外。这里的牛扒虽然价格不菲,但都采取和美国等同的巨无霸分量,如果按分量计算,其实还算合理,加上两个旁菜,很难吃得完,点菜时要注意。 搞定正餐后,如果还有胃口,可尝尝新推出的"Morton's Legendary Sundae"(31元)。湿润的巧克力蛋糕和香草雪糕并排摆在巨型杯子中,上面淋上层层叠叠的香滑奶油,单望着就让心跳负荷加重。要挑战这杯霸级甜点,一定要加多几个汤匙,拉多几名战友,最重要是,吃完后得死命运动,甩掉那甜甜腻腻的罪恶感! >餐馆:Mortons The Steakhouse The Mandarin Oriental四楼 星期一至星期六:傍晚5时30分至晚上11时 星期日:傍晚5时至晚上10时 6339-3740 |

大脑一半时间在走神 (英国)BBC中文网 (2010-11-13) 研究人员发现,除了睡眠之外,人们有一半时间大脑处于作白日梦状态。 美国哈佛大学研究人员通过iPhone所作的调查发现人们清醒时几乎一半时间并没有在考虑自己正在做的事。 即使在从事难度较大的工作时,也有至少30%的人大脑走神。 二千二百多名志愿者在手机上下载了实验app,然后接受随机调查,回答某时某刻他们在想什么,情绪如何。 |

http://www.doctoryourself.com/caffeine_allergy.html CAFFEINE ALLERGY People have overlooked two simple but deleterious factors: 1,3,7 trimethylxanthine and allergy. Simply put: caffeine allergy. It is medical knowledge that the longer a person is exposed to a drug, the higher the chances are for developing a tolerance, and an allergy to the substance. Once this happens, caffeine allergic persons can't properly metabolize caffeine, which is rapidly absorbed by all organs, and distributed into intracellular compartments, and extracellular water. Mentioned in a 1936 article by Drs. McManamy and Schube, a young woman, allergic to caffeine, presented with alternating states of delirium and mania, resembling schizophrenia (1). After the recorded case, allergy documentation becomes rare. And not surprisingly. The drug's stimulating properties masks its allergic symptoms. Circulating adrenaline (epinephrine) increases in caffeine consuming persons (2,3). In its synthetic form, epinephrine is the drug of choice for anaphylactic reactions, halting allergic reactions. But added to a stimulant reaction, excess adrenaline may induce delusions. And the breakdown of some adrenaline byproducts mimics symptoms of schizophrenia (4). Brain levels increase proportionately with dosage (5). In allergic persons, each cup of coffee, cola, tea, every piece of chocolate, and any ingested caffeine products, intensifies toxic psychosis. Half-life increases. Subsequent doses, including minute amounts, act as a bolus. Cells are poisoned, including neurons. Symptoms of cerebral allergy can range from minimal reactions, such as lack of comprehension and inability to focus, to severe psychotic states, such as delusions, paranoia, and hallucinations (6). It's known that amphetamine psychosis can't be distinguished from schizophrenia (7,8). With a caffeine allergic person's inability to eliminate, continually ingesting caffeine, neurotransmitter levels, including dopamine and adrenaline, quickly increase. Cells rapidly absorb the drug. Dopamine increases proportionately to the amount of stress (9). The higher the adrenaline level, the greater the increase in dopamine. Serotonin also increases. Dopamine and serotonin decrease during partial, toxic withdrawal states. But as long as caffeine remains in the toxic body, neurotransmitters never adjust to the victim's natural state. Toxicity is known to cause excitement, agitation, restlessness, shifting states of consciousness, and toxic psychosis (10), mimicking amphetamine psychosis. Allergic individuals may be erroneously diagnosed, medicated, and lost in a dark disturbed world, until death. Adenosine receptors are blocked by caffeine (11,16), maintaining neuronal firing. Persons remain excited and often euphoric. Caffeine toxicity may be mistaken for bipolar disorder (1,12). Symptoms include: chattiness, repetitive thought and action (resembling obsessive compulsive disorder, OCD), restlessness, psychomotor agitation, alternating moods, anger, impulsiveness, aggression, omnipotence, delirium, buying sprees, lack of sexual inhibition, and loss of values. |

Exponential Moving Average - EMA![]() What Does Exponential Moving Average - EMA Mean?
A type of moving average that is similar to a simple moving average, except that more weight is given to the latest data. The exponential moving average is also known as "exponentially weighted moving average". ![]() Investopedia explains Exponential Moving Average - EMA
This type of moving average reacts faster to recent price changes than a simple moving average. The 12- and 26-day EMAs are the most popular short-term averages, and they are used to create indicators like the moving average convergence divergence (MACD) and the percentage price oscillator (PPO). In general, the 50- and 200-day EMAs are used as signals of long-term trends.

Riding the Election Tsunami
By Steve Christ | Wednesday, November 3rd, 2010
It wasn't exactly pitch forks and torches yesterday, but after an election cycle of heated debates, the electoral tsunami finally arrived. Using the power of the ballot box, Americans decided to rearrange the map again proving the anti-establishment wave is as deep and powerful as it has ever been. And while neither camp can actually claim the high ground this morning, the good news for investors is the divided government that will follow in its wake. After all, equity markets have historically favored gridlock by a pretty wide margin... In fact since 1970, the S&P 500 has grown at a median rate of 13.5% per year in the face of divided government, versus a gain of just 9% during times of one-party control. |

![]() Question: What Is Tethering?
Answer:
"Tethering" is the use of your cell phone -- or other Internet-enabled mobile device -- as a modem for another device, usually a notebook or PDA. The connection is made either with a cable (USB or serial) or wirelessly through bluetooth (or, in the good old days, via infrared or IrDA). Benefits of TetheringTethering enables users to go online from their laptops or PDAs in situations where there's no other means of Internet access: when there's no wi-fi hotspot around, for example, or your cable modem goes on the fritz, or you're on a dirt road in the middle of nowhere and need an online map quick ... you get the idea. If you're already paying for data service on your cell phone and your cellular provider doesn't require any extra fees for using your cell phone as a modem for your laptop, tethering can also save you money, since you won't have to pay for separate mobile broadband service or buy additional hardware just to get your laptop connected. You can also surf the web more securely using a tethered cell phone, because your information is being sent directly through the phone versus, for example, over a public open wireless hotspot. You may also conserve some laptop battery power, because you can turn off wi-fi on your laptop while you use your tethered cellular modem. Tethering Issues or ObstaclesUsing your cell phone's data service for your laptop will, however, drain the phone's battery more quickly, especially if you're using bluetooth to connect. If you have a USB port on your laptop that can also charge devices, tethering via USB would be a better way to connect. Also, keep in mind that the speed you get on a tethered device may not be as fast as you might expect even on the cell phone itself because the information has to take that extra step over the air or through the wire (USB connections will generally be faster than bluetooth). Even with 3G service on your handset, upload and download speeds will typically be less than 1 Mbps. If you're in an area not covered by mobile broadband, you'll likely get speeds only a few times faster than dial-up. You also may not be able to use your voice service on the cell phone while it is tethered, depending on your particular phone and connection method. The biggest obstacle, though, is just being able to tether your cell phone to your laptop at all. Each wireless carrier has a different set of rules and service plans for allowing tethering, and each cell phone device may have its own limitations. How to tether your cell phone will largely depend on your cell phone service provider and your cell phone model.
