Subject：50 歲以上 應酬聚餐最好安排中午！

具有西醫與中醫雙重背景的郭家欣醫師，今年 3 月 24 日在溫哥華台加文化協會演講時指出，50 歲以上的人，睡覺前 4 小時最好不要進食，晚餐應該在 6 時前結束。因此，有交際應酬，最好排在中午。

郭家欣以「經營亮麗健康的人生」為題發表演講時，做了上述表示。

他說，隨著年齡增長，食道與胃之間的賁門會鬆弛，吃飽飯後如果平躺，食物與胃酸會逆流，嚴重一點的可能衝到喉頭令人窒息，有些老人家在睡夢中出現這樣的情形，如果錯過急救時間，就可能危及生命。有些則是食道會很痛，就是燒心痛，可能會引發心肌梗塞。

吃完飯後 4 小時再上床，是最理想的，如果實在很累不躺不行，就採取半臥躺方式，例如，躺在搖椅上休息，就是不要平躺。

郭家欣在台灣是婦產科與家醫科專科醫師，執業近 30 年。移民後他又就讀中醫學院，取得卑詩省中醫師執照，目前經營華美診所。他的養生講座兼具中西醫的學理基礎，極受聽眾歡迎。

他從正面思考、睡眠與飲食三方面，來探討經營亮麗健康人生的秘訣，睡眠尤其是重點。郭家欣說，睡醒時最好不要馬上直立，最好先坐一分鐘，然後在床沿再坐一分鐘，二分鐘的遲延對身體很好。

每天維持 10 點鐘就上床睡覺，清晨即起的郭家欣指出，年輕人是故意晚睡，愈夜愈美麗。熬夜加上社會面的問題，有時會引起焦慮症與憂鬱症。

年紀大一點的，問題則在失眠，因為荷爾蒙因素，每個人自己必須注意，不管從中醫或西醫的角度來看，最差的方法就是吃安眠藥，因為會愈吃愈大量，成為習慣，有些藥物還有讓患者夜遊的作用，非常危險。

早睡早起，加上以 3 : 2 : 1 比例吃三餐，是健康的基礎，大家幾乎都知道，卻不一定會去做。早上不吃，晚上卻吃自助餐，完全背道而馳。「很多人說癌症是吃出來的，飲食是重要原因。」他說。（註：如果早睡的話，晚餐吃得少也不會餓；熬夜的話，易餓不說，吃宵夜就更糟了！）

他說，1980 年代，他剛從醫學院畢業時，美國人的乳癌罹患率是台灣的一千倍，那時候大家認為台灣人的基因不容易得乳癌。現在，台灣不但趕上美國，而且超越，這表示基因的因素很小，是因為飲食改變。

他主張「50 歲以後不要固執一天吃三餐，可以吃五、六餐，每餐只吃半飽，飲食中 60% 是蔬菜，20% 是水果，20% 澱粉，10% 蛋白質。青赤黃白黑五形蔬菜通通要吃，可以照顧肝心脾肺腎，儘量選當季當地蔬果，坎具最好用不銹鋼。」

subject HKU Donation Campaign

HKU has been running a Bricks Campaign to seek donation for building its Centennial Campus which will be completed in 2012.

For donation of HK$18,000, we can have a 4" x 8" brick erected with description of our choice.

Although some of you may have donated your own brick, I would suggest our class of 1971 to donate one. Then I shall promote other graduation years to do the same.

For the HKU Science 70th anniversary celebration, the Alumni Liaison Subgroup (where I am serving) has contacted science alumni from 1967 to 2008 and established coordinators for each graduation years.

I contributed more than any other subgroup members, and made the finishing touch of finding the coordinators for the last two missing years.

If all the 42 graduation years are donating, there will be at least 42 bricks, and we can design a pattern to group and arrange the bricks together.

Grateful if you will express your view.

Regards,
Edward Sin

Reply from Chee Cheong CHOI

Dear Mr Sin

Thank you for your msg. Pleased to know that you are a long-time friend of Dominic Lee Tat-on, who is one of my best friends.

I am delighted to render my assistance requested. It is a role which any science alumnus would be pleased to take up. The 1967 cohort has been keeping in touch in recent years by email although we have not been able to track down all former classmates. I shall keep them posted.

I shall also get in touch with someone in the 1965, 1966 and 1968 cohorts. I am sure they will come up with a representative to set up the network if they have not already done so. I shall revert to you asap.

BTW, I intend to attend the gathering schedule for 20 March. I look forward to seeing you and other folks.

Best wishes.

Choi Chee-cheong

B71 #82: Coriolis effect

During our re-union gathering on December 28, 2008, the subject of Coriolis effect was raised and discussed. It leads to the following finding:

a) that the Earth's Coriolis effect (an effect of differential surface velocity) is theoretically true (see Part 1).

b) that the Earth's Coriolis effect is hard to demonstrate as it requires a large bath/pool 2 yards across, to drain through a pin-hole for 12-15 minutes before the effect can be seen (see Part 2).

c) that we can emulate the Coriolis effect by rotating a half globe on a platform (see Part 3).

I would await some interested parties to assemble an experimental unit.

///// Part 2; The lack of good demonstration kit /////

Website discussing the difficulty of setting up an Ideal Sink experiment:
http://www.thenakedscientists.com/HTML/content/interviews/interview/470/

Can You Detect The Coriolis Effect in your Sink?
Dr Karl Kruszelnicki, University of Sydney, Australia

Chris - What we've been doing this evening is asking people all around the East of England to fill sinks and baths with water, pull out the plug and see which way the water swirls down the plug hole. We've got a mixture of results this evening, but is this experiment actually possible? Can we detect the spinning of the Earth using this approach?

Karl - You can get it to work. However, you're looking at a thing called the Coriolis force, which is actually angular momentum under a different name. The Coriolis force on the small bodies of water you're working on is roughly 10 million times smaller than the gravity force, so you really need to do the experiments delicately. Let's just back up a bit here. The thing about angular momentum is the same as when ice skaters go faster when they pull their hands into their body. They speed up because they bring more of their mass to the spin axis of the body. If you think about the Earth spinning, at the equator it's a long way from the spin axis, and at the poles it's right on the spin axis. If you get a storm brewing just above the equator, they spin and move away from the equator towards the poles. As they do so, they head towards the spin axis of the Earth. There's a bit of angular momentum that needs to be accounted for. If you do the equations, this leads to clockwise rotation of a hurricane in the southern hemisphere and anticlockwise rotation in the northern hemisphere. But here you're looking at something tens or hundreds of kilometres across. How can you hope to see that same effect in a tiny tub? The answer is that if you do the experiment very carefully, you should be able to see it. This has been done once or twice.

Chris - So it is possible?

Karl - Yes. In a fine journal called Nature in 1962, there was a paper by Shapiro who did the experiment at MIT. A few years later at the University of Sydney, also published in Nature, a paper by Trefethen in 1964 about the bath tub vortex in the Southern hemisphere. What you do is get a special bath tub, which is two yards across, six inches deep and has a tiny tiny central hole. You put a cork there so you can see which way the water's going. You let the water settle for a day or two so you lose all the residual spin from putting it in there and then you open the drain plug. The water begins to flow out very slowly and nothing very significant happens for about twelve to fifteen minutes. At around that stage, you can begin to see the cork take on a clockwise or anticlockwise rotation depending on your hemisphere. It happens slowly at first and then increases to one rotation every four seconds by the end. Shapiro wrote that when all the precautions prescribed were taken, the vortex was invariably in the anti clockwise direction. Soif you're a fair way away from the equator and you it carefully, you can see it. However if you just rush off the plane at Singapore which is one degree from the equator, and the surface of the Earth is about parallel to the spin axis, put some water in an oval bowl and pull the plug straight out, you're only going to see local effects.

Chris - So in other words, Michael Palin was fooled into thinking this was true at the equator.

Karl - Mate, there's an old Polish saying. If you've got a dog, don't bark. It's fairly obscure, but what it means is stick to your speciality. The number of areas of ignorance we have are huge. In this particular case in the TV series Pole to Pole, Michael Plain meets a man called Michael McCleary, who says that this line here on the ground is the equator. He has a little square tub which he's holding in his hands with floating matchsticks. He then walks off in one direction and spins as he turns around to face the tourists. That gives a spin to the water. He takes his finger off the bottom and you can see the matchsticks going round clockwise or anti clockwise as he's being told. Poor Mr Palin is being conned!

Chris - It just goes to show that even the great Michael Palin can be conned sometimes. Thanks very much for joining us Dr Karl and helping us to avoid throwing out the baby with the bath water and debunking the myth of the Coriolis effect and how it effects spin when water goes down the plug hole.

December 2005




///// Part 3 Suggested demonstration kit /////

I would suggest to use a rotating platform to rotate a double-layer half globe on a cylindrical upright pillar, with the following set-up.

Set-up 1: Pin-ball experiment

1a) While the platform is rotating from west to east, shoot a pin-ball from the equator to the north pole along the zero meridian. We predict that it would deflect to the right. If there are three holes at the 45 degree latitude, namely one at the zeroth meridian, one on the right and one on the left, the pin ball would "fall" into the right hole.

1b) If a pin-ball is shot from the north pole along the zero meridian to the equator, it will "fall" into the left hole.

1c) If similar arrangement is mounted on the cylindrical part, both balls will "fall" into the zeroth meridian hole.

1d) If we reverse the rotation of the platform from east to west, in the half globe, the ball shot from the equator will fall into the left hole and the ball shot from the north pole will fall into the right hole (different from (a) and (b)). In the cylindrical column, all balls will fall into the zeroth meridian hole (same as in (c)).

Set up 2: Air suction

2a) In the inner globe of the double layer, punch four holes:
(i) a hole at the north pole,
(ii) a hole in the equator at the zeroth meridian,
(iii) a hole in the 45 degrees north latitude and the 45 degrees east longitude,
(iv) a hole in the 45 degrees north latitude and the 45 degrees west longitude.
2b) If we punch punch a hole in the outer globe of the double-layer at the position of zeroth meridian and 45 degrees north latitude, air will be centrifuged out of the globe while the globe rotates. We can put sensors around the hole for detecting air current.

2c) Instead of punching a hole in the outer globe, we shall punch a hole in the inner globe at the same position (zeroth meridian and 45 degrees north latitude), and use a pump to pump air out of the double-layer there. The sensors in (b) will detect the current flow, which according to Coriolis effect should be in counter-clockwise direction.

2d) If we install similar things on the cylindrical column as a control experiment, the air flow direction may not form a pattern.

2e) If we reverse the direction of the rotation, we would expect the air flow in (c) will be in clockwise direction. Again, the control experiment installed in the cylindrical column will not display a clear pattern.

Set up 3: Water flow

3a) Mount two water reservoirs at the equator (called them the left and right side of heart), linked with pipe to enable water flow in-between.

3b) Mount two water reservoir at the north pole (called them the left and right side of the cerebrum), again linked with pipe to enable water to flow in-between

3c) Use a rubber tube (right tube) to connect the water outlet at the right heart to the water inlet at the right celebrum.

3d) Use a rubber tube (left tube) to connect the water outlet at the left celebrum to the water inlet at the left hear.

3e) Use a pump to pump water from the right heart upwards. Water would flow upward along the right tube to the right celebrum, then to the left cerebrum, fall down along the left tube to the left heart and return to the right heart to complete the circulation.

3f) As the globe rotates from west to east, the right tube will bulge to the right, and the left tube will bulge to the left, leaving a hollow for the anti-clocwise cyclone to form, as predicted by the Coriolis effect.

3g) Suggest to clamp the rubber tubes in place, activate the pump to circulate the water, then rotate the globe. When condition stabilizes, release the clamp and observe how the rubber tubes will bend. For better effect, install sensors to detect the bending of the rubber tubes. One form of sensor is to use florescent water and transparent rubber tubes, so that we can observe the bending of the rubber tubes without having to stop the globe from rotating.

3h) If we change the direction of the rotation, we would expect that rubber tubes to bend towards each other instead of bulging out.

3i) The control experiment installed at the side of the cylinder would not display the bending effect.

3j) To demonstrate the effect side by side, we may install similar water inlet and outlets at the 180 degrees meridian with water pumped up along the left rubber tube and water returning downward along the right rubber tube. It is predicted that the opposite effect of (3f) and (3h) would be observed.

Set up 4: Further improvement

4a) It may be desirable to divide the the globe and the cylinder into 4 compartments, two for the water pipes, one for the pin-ball and one for air flow.

4b) It may also be desirable to change the half globe design to a pyramid design (with a square base) to house the 4 compartments.

4c) It may also be desirable to build two units, one rotating from west to east (to emulate the northern hemisphere), and the other rotating from east to west (to emulate the southern hemisphere). If successful, this will explain everything in one go.

Message from David Yau:

Again，余等同窗子裔又添榮顯，眾 Uncles & Aunties 與有榮焉，除對梁同學蕙蘭衷心道賀，懇請冼同學永生把此佳訊上 Blog，以公告天下！

美國最聰明青年科學家 華裔陶哲軒位居榜首

26/11/2008

美國《探索》（Discover）雜誌選出二十名四十歲以下美國最聰明的科學家（20 Best Brains Under 40），其中排首位的數學家和排第十位的電子生物工程師都是華裔科學精英。

排首位的 33 歲華裔數學家陶哲軒（Terence Tao）智商高達 220，在澳洲出生，他 8 歲參加美國高考學術評估測驗（SAT）數學科獲得 760 分的高分，只差 40 分就滿分（在美國，十七八歲的學生中只有 1% 能夠達到 750 分，而 8 歲的孩子裏面還沒有人超過 700 分），24 歲更成為加州大學洛杉磯分校史上最年輕的數學教授，前年獲得「菲爾茨獎」（Fields Medal），這是一項專為四十歲以下傑出科學家頒發的「數學界諾貝爾獎」。會說粵語但是不懂書寫中文的陶哲軒，在有關壓縮感知方面的研究，可以應用在磁力共振、天文以及數碼相機等成像技術上。

最聰明科學家排第十位的是 36 歲的楊長輝（Changhuei Yang），目前任職加州理工學院電子工程與生物工程師。目前主力研究製作廉價耐用、方便攜帶的「超小顯微鏡」，他希望將來可更多應用在發展中國家，方便醫生驗血和檢驗水質。

"Terry is like Mozart -- except without Mozart's personality problems," said John Garnett, professor and former chair of mathematics in the UCLA College. "Mathematics just flows out of him." "Mathematicians with Terry's abilities appear only once in a generation," said Garnett. "He's probably the best mathematician in the world right now. Terry can unravel an enormously complicated mathematical problem and reduce it to something very simple. We're amazingly lucky to have him at UCLA."
