No Explanation = Evidence ??
The fact that I can't explain a strange phenomena is not evidence of the existence of ghost. Pleeeeease.
SMALL DOG SYNDROME
好多人見到細種狗仔好得意就想養。當然，有咁細隻狗其實就係想令佢哋更可愛迎合人。但係佢唔係手提電話，唔清楚功能，唔迎合自己，都唔可以隨便拋棄。
細種狗點解都會有同一種行為問題？因為：
1. 佢哋體型細。狗主通常都會覺得佢哋冇乜殺傷力而寵壞。完全唔覺得有需要教佢哋同做行為訓練。
2. 佢哋可愛。狗主通常都會唔捨得同佢進行行為訓練。
3. 狗主一開始認為細狗係唔需要咩訓練。
4. 懶！
但係即使細狗，狗都係有狗性。狗係以群體生活，而且各自有自己嘅綱位，以 alpha dog 為首。冇 alpha dog 就會毫無安全感。於是就自己充當 alpha dog 位置。但係有自知之明，明知自己冇能力，所以就神經質咁又吠又野蠻！完成不受控制。或者狗主唔介意做亞四。但有冇諗過狗狗24小時處於高度警覺嘅情況下過活係幾咁辛苦？
狗主作為 alpha dog 就要有 alpha dog 嘅風範！唔係懶有型就得。要夠兇猛！要有自信！作為部下，有佢自身嘅工作，狗主要分配。例如看門口。身為狗主嘅你有冇盡你嘅職責呢？

OMG Cellulite!!!
NO, you canNOT, and neither can I, remove cellulite. But does fact make you feel better?
First, there might be thunder and lightning hearing that you cannot remove cellulite. But once you accept the fact, it does make you leave it alone because you start focusing on some other matters.

Second, how come workout "seems" to work? Because workout makes you happy, gives you radiance and healthy strong immunity WHICH eventually make you look great overall!
So, don't give up looking great even you can't do anything about just this one minor problem. Keep exercise gals!!!

基本辯論技巧
有啲人係咁樣討論：首先用個標籤套落對方，然後就著哩個標籤去批評對方。咁樣就可以繞過證實前切 (即係對方係咪如標籤咁樣)，一早放自己向一定啱嘅位置，對方係向唔啱嗰邊。但係其實佢乜都冇證實到。
辯論中反駁對方論點嘅技巧：
1. Is it true? Is it always true?
2. Is it significant?
3. Is it relevant?
4. Is it easy to solve?
驗證對方支持論點嘅證據:
5. What is the source?
6. Is the explanation reasonable?
7. Date of source? Outdated?
8. Statistically valid?
9. From expert of the field?
10. Biased?

DON'T Spread the Myths
Telling/Sharing unscientific information can be fatal and certainly irresponsible.These information may stop people to do the right thing and put themselves in risks and danger. It can make people worry for nothing too. As a reader, you should always be alert. Calm down! Look at the source, look at the statistic and the real world around you!
1. GMO food is killing people. (All the rice is genetically modified from ancient times. They are artificial selected. The plump corns too!)
2. Milk is poisonous. (Unless you are severely allergic to lactose. Of course, even TOO MUCH water kills you.)
3. Vaccines kill your children. (We are all healthy and kicking. What they are doing is switching the virus to inactive mode as a bait to turn on our own defence system! Building mega construction kills more people than taking vaccine!)
4. Contraceptive pills have lots of side-effects and is not natural. (Basically the pills prevent the egg coming, hence, you can't conceive. The bleeding is a mimic. So it is also safe to make a 3 months cycle, 4 months cycle or even never bleed!)
5. MSG is bad. (Those cheap MSG contains lots of impurity substances. This is cause of uncomfortable reactions! Well, like people who can be allergic to peanuts, eggs, milk, some can also be allergic to MSG. They will probably have the same allergic response to tomato, seaweed and mushrooms.)
When it is suspicious:
-- no source or credible source
-- relates to some conspiracies
-- only contain one or two individual case(s)
Trust your reasoning not fear.
Mouse, Pig, and Elephant
Me: I am mouse (rat). I was born on the year of mouse. What are you?
K3: I am pig!
Me: Wow! My mom and my sister are pig too! What about your mom?
K3: Elephant! Mommy is elephant!
Me: (eyes wide) ...
Meaning "mommy is very powerful and cannot be outpowered!"
K3: I am pig!
Me: Wow! My mom and my sister are pig too! What about your mom?
K3: Elephant! Mommy is elephant!
Me: (eyes wide) ...
Meaning "mommy is very powerful and cannot be outpowered!"
Tiger Mom is Nothing Like a Tiger
A real tiger mom takes very good care of its cubs. A real tiger mom doesn't train her cubs 24/7. She let them play or may play with them. She demonstrates who she is instead of forcing her dream to her cubs. The whole attitude is consistent whether tiger, rabbit or panda...
<<Psychiatrist Shimi Kang offers the dolphin way to bring up children>>
Thu, Apr 17 2014/SCMP
Just being a parent is confusing and exhausting enough without all those conflicting parenting styles being sold by photogenic people with PhDs. They only serve as criticism to accentuate our shortcomings and ignorance.
Boy, have I ruined my kids' future by failing to play Bach and Mozart to them when they were in the womb.
The latest parenting sensation is Shimi Kang, who advises us to follow the way of the dolphin.
The Canadian-Indian Harvard-trained psychiatrist's offering, The Dolphin Way offers a sensible alternative to training tiger cubs.
We all fear a tiger but everyone loves Flipper. That may be why tiger mum Amy Chua provoked such animus. We should instead raise our children like baby dolphins, so Kang says. Parents, release your inner fins!
So why dolphins? Well, we all know IQ and EQ. Dr Kang here offers what she calls CQ: creativity, critical thinking, communication and collaboration. These are the core skills, she argues, a child needs to thrive in the 21st century and dolphins, we are told, excel in all of them. Let's not try to be marine biologists here. But as Kang points out, dolphins use tools such as sea sponges over their snouts to forage for food [creativity]. They work around problems such as avoiding fishing traps [critical thinking]. They whistle, squeak and physically gesture to communicate. And they play, hunt and socialise together [collaboration].
Tiger parenting, Kang argues, not only fails to encourage these skills, it stifles them. Why? Because the cubs are over-scheduled, over-structured, over-managed and over-protected. She also claims tiger cubs on average do worse than their well-adjusted, well-rounded peers in the one area their parents claim superiority: academic performance. As evidence, she cites a University of Texas study which tracked more than 300 Chinese-American families over eight years. Those with "harsh parenting" styles on average produced children with educational achievement and attainment lower than families that were "supportive" and "easygoing".
My take is that most parents are tigers, dolphins and pussycats at one time or another. Sometimes you have to be a tiger. Other times you just have to play with Flipper.
