傑·雷諾( 著名深夜電視節目主持人) 走進觀眾席,尋找女性經歷過的最尷尬的初次約會。獲獎者要講述她最糟糕的初次約會經歷。

她說當時正值隆冬下著雪,天氣很冷……而那個男人帶她去猶他州鹽湖城外的山上滑雪一日遊。

畢竟他們是陌生人,郊遊也相對平靜,直到晚些時候他們回家,在他們開車下山的路上,她逐漸意識到自己不該多喝那杯拿鐵!

他們離任何有廁所的地方大約一個小時,而且是在茫茫荒野之中!她的同伴建議她試著忍住,她照做了一會兒。

不幸的是,由於大雪和緩慢的車速,她告訴他最好停車讓她靠邊,否則她會尿到他車的前座。

他們停了下來,她迅速爬到車旁,拉下褲子開始尿尿。雪很厚,她站不穩,只能把屁股抵在後擋泥板上穩住自己。

她的同伴站在車側觀察來往車輛,果然是個紳士沒有偷看。她滿腦子想的都是那種輕鬆的感覺,儘管當時的處境相當尷尬。

然而,等她做完這些彎腰提褲子時,發現自己的臀部粘在了擋泥板上。

當她試圖把肉體從冰冷的金屬上掙脫出來時,腦海中立刻浮現出舌頭被凍成冰柱的畫面。很快,她發現由於極度寒冷她遇到了一個新的問題。

她對自己的困境感到震驚,但又不失一絲幽默感,於是她回答約會對象“怎麼這麼久還沒好”的擔憂,說她“確實凍得屁股都掉了”,需要幫忙!

當她用毛衣遮住自己時他繞了過來,然後,當她懇求地看著他的眼睛時,他突然大笑起來。她也跟著笑了起來,等他們終於鎮定下來後,開始評估她的困境。顯然儘管情況令人歇斯底里,他們面臨著一個真正的問題。

兩人都同意,需要一些熱的東西才能讓她冰冷的屁股從金屬中解脫!想到當初是什麼讓她陷入困境,兩人很快意識到只有一個辦法。

於是她轉過頭去時,她的初次約會對象拉開了他的拉鍊,尿到她的屁股,把屁股從擋泥板上拉了下來。

在觀眾的哄堂大笑聲中,她輕易地獲得了「今夜秀」的獎項。

傑·雷諾的評論……“這讓生氣(pissed off)有了全新的含義。”

哦,對了,第一次約會結果怎麼樣?他成了她的丈夫,在雷諾的節目裡坐在她旁邊。

Jay Leno went into the audience to find the most embarrassing first date that a woman ever had. The winner described her worst first date experience. There was absolutely no question as to why her tale took the prize!

She said it was midwinter, snowing and quite cold... and the guy had taken her skiing in the mountains outside Salt Lake City, Utah. It was a day trip (no overnight).

They were strangers, after all, and had never met before. The outing was fun but relatively uneventful until they were headed home late that afternoon. They were driving back down the mountain when she gradually began to realize that she should not have had that extra latte !!

They were about an hour away from anywhere with a restroom and in the middle of nowhere! Her companion suggested she try to hold it, which she did for a while.

Unfortunately, because of the heavy snow and slow going, there came a point where she told him that he had better stop and let her go beside the road, or it would be the front seat of his car.

They stopped and she quickly crawled out beside the car, yanked her pants down and started. In the deep snow she didn't have good footing, so she let her butt rest against the rear fender to steady herself.

Her companion stood on the side of the car watching for traffic and indeed was a real gentleman and refrained from peeking. All she could think about was the relief she felt despite the rather embarrassing nature of the situation.

Upon finishing, however, she soon became aware of another sensation. As she bent to pull up her pants, the young lady discovered her buttocks were firmly glued against the car's fender.

Thoughts of tongues frozen to poles immediately came to mind as she attempted to disengage her flesh from the icy metal. It was quickly apparent that she had a brand new problem, due to the extreme cold.

Horrified by her plight and yet aware of the humor of the moment, she answered her date's concerns about' what is taking so long' with a reply that indeed, she was 'freezing her butt off' and in need of some assistance!

He came around the car as she tried to cover herself with her sweater and then, as she looked imploringly into his eyes, he burst out laughing. She too got the giggles and when they finally managed to compose themselves, they assessed her dilemma. Obviously, as hysterical as the situation was, they also were faced with a real problem.

Both agreed it would take something hot to free her chilly cheeks from the grip of the icy metal! Thinking about what had gotten her into the predicament in the first place, both quickly realized that there was only one way to get her free. So, as she looked the other way, her first-time date proceeded to unzip his pants and pee her butt off the fender.

As the audience screamed in laughter, she took the Tonight Show prize hands down. Or perhaps that should be 'pants down'. And you thought your first date was embarrassing.
Jay Leno's comment..... 'This gives a whole new meaning to being pissed off.'

Oh, and how did the first date turn out? He became her husband and was sitting next to her on the Leno show.

  • 永遠不要在飛行中這樣做!!! (以下是谷歌翻譯的,英文原文如下為朋友臉書分享的) ————- 如果您經常乘飛機旅行,請注意過於友好的健談座位鄰居。 年長的女士過來坐在我旁邊的飛機上。 她讓我幫她把包放在頭頂行李箱裡。 但是坐在對面的一位紳士很快就走了進來。 (我個子不高,頭頂行李箱是我不惜一切代價盡量避免的。 她立即​​坐下,開始了談話。 她很愉快,說得很好。 所以,我們在飛往迪拜的航班上一直在聊天。 突然,當飛行員宣布我們現在開始下降到 DXB 時,我的好朋友“出現”了胃痛。 我懷著一顆善良的心,按下了空姐的按鈕,空姐過來查明問題所在。 我告訴她我的同桌感覺不舒服。 而這位女士,她突然開始稱呼我為“我的女兒”。 空姐告訴我,除了給她一些止痛藥,等我們降落,他們什麼都做不了。 飛行員宣布我們在船上有醫療緊急情況,並建議我們所有人保持冷靜。 我的新朋友哭得像瘋了似的流著汗。 她拒絕放開我的手……每個人都以為我們認識對方。 因此,我們降落在 DXB,幫助將行李放在頭頂行李艙的同一位紳士取出了她的行李。 但當他拿走行李時,他建議我與這位女士保持距離,並向機組人員明確表示我們不是一起旅行。 他是天賜之物! 所以確實,機組人員來問我是否有親戚關係,我斷然告訴他們我們是在飛機上認識的。 我根本不認識她。 所以,我們開始下飛機,當我說再見時,她一直求我提她的手提包。 我好傷心……但這位先生看著我的眼睛,用力地搖了搖頭。 他遞給我一張紙條,告訴我讓機組人員處理她。 所以,我下了飛機,讓我的“新朋友”等待輪椅,被機組人員處理,感到非常內疚。 當我們等待行李通過時,我聽到了這種騷動。 我的“新朋友”正在奔跑,試圖逃離機組人員,從輪椅上下來! 她帶著手提包離開了空姐,帶著剩下的手提行李就往出口跑了! 幸好機場警察比她快。 他們抓住了她,把她戴上手銬帶了回來。 這位女士開始呼喚我。 我的女兒……我的女兒! 你怎麼能這樣對我......那是我趕上的時候。 她攜帶毒品,並試圖牽連我! 幸運的是,幫她拿行李的那位先生上前告訴機場警察,我和她剛剛在飛機上相遇。 警察拿走了我的護照,並要求她透露我的全名,如果我們真的一起旅行的話。 靠著上帝的恩典,我什至沒有告訴她我的名字! 我仍然被要求跟隨警察到一個小房間,在那裡我受到了廣泛的訊問。 我在哪裡遇到她?...我在哪裡登機...她在哪裡登機。 等等......我的行李被廣泛搜查並除塵以尋找指紋。 他們把她所有的行李都撣掉了,在她的行李或手提包上都沒有找到我的指紋! 我被告知永遠不要在飛行中或在機場觸摸任何人的行李。 所以,從那天起,我不管你有多少行李,你自己來處理。 我什至不會給你推車來放你的行李! 你的行李……你的問題……是我的政策。 如果你無法到達頭頂艙,而我是最近的人,請打電話給機組人員,因為我只會給你一個白眼,然後把目光移開! ——— NEVER DO THIS IN A FLIGHT!!! If you travel by air a lot, beware of over friendly chatty seat Neighbour's. The older lady comes and sits next to me inside the plane. She asked me to help her put her bag in the overhead luggage compartment. But a gentleman sitting across quickly came through. (I am not very tall, and the overhead luggage compartment is something I try to avoid at all costs. Immediately she sits down she strikes up a conversation. She was very pleasant and well spoken. So, we chatted all through the flight to Dubai. Suddenly, when the pilot announced that we were now proceeding to begin our descent into DXB, my good friend 'developed' stomach pains. Me with my good heart, I pressed the steward's button, and the stewardess came to find out what the problem was. I told her my seat mate was not feeling well. And this lady, she suddenly began to address me as 'my daughter'. The stewardess told me that there was nothing they could do except give her some painkillers and wait until we landed. The pilot announced that we had a medical emergency on board and advised us all to stay calm. My new friend was crying and sweating like crazy. And she refused to let go of my hand... everyone assumed we knew each other. So, we landed at DXB and the same gentleman who helped put up her luggage in the overhead compartment removed her luggage. But as he removed the luggage, he advised me to distance myself from this lady and make it clear to the cabin crew that we were NOT travelling together. He was a godsend! So indeed, the cabin crew came and asked me if we were related, I categorically told them we had met on the plane. I didn't know her at all. So, we began to deplane and as I said goodbye, she kept begging me to carry her handbag. I was so torn... but the gentleman looked me in the eye and emphatically shook his head. He passed me a note telling me to let the cabin crew handle her. So, I exit the aircraft and leave my 'new friend' to wait for the wheelchair and be handled by the cabin crew feeling very guilty. As we waited for our luggage to come through, I hear this commotion. My 'new friend' was running, trying to escape the cabin crew, having gotten out of the wheelchair! She left the stewardess with her handbag and just ran towards the exit with the rest of her hand luggage! Luckily the airport police were faster than her. They got hold of her and brought her back in handcuffs. This lady starts calling out to me. my daughter... my daughter! how could you do this to me..... that's when I caught on. She was carrying drugs and she was trying to implicate me! Luckily for me, the gentleman who had helped her with her luggage came forward and told the airport police that me and her had just met on the plane. The police took my passport and asked her to reveal my full names if it was true we were travelling together. By God's grace, I had not even told her my first name! I was still asked to follow the police to a little room where I was questioned extensively. Where did I meet her?... where did I board... where did she board. Etc... And my luggage was extensively searched and dusted for fingerprints. They dusted all her luggage, and my fingerprints were not found anywhere on her luggage or on her handbag! I was let go with advice never ever to touch anyone's luggage either in flight or at the airport. So, from that day, I don't care how much luggage you have, you will deal with it yourself. I will not even offer you a trolley to put your luggage on! Your luggage... your problem.... is my policy. And if you can't reach the overhead compartment, and I am the nearest person, please call the cabin crew because all I will do is give you a blank stare and then look away!

  • 放置一顆沒有剝皮的洋蔥在房間裏! 當流感造成了四千萬人死亡時,有一位醫生到各地農場去探視,看是否可以幫助人們戰勝流感。 很多農民和他們家庭感染了流感,很多人因此而死亡。這位醫生來到一家農民家。 出乎預料,這家庭的每一個人都非常健康。 醫生詢問這家的做法與其他人家有何不同,這家的妻子說她在家裏的每一個房間(那時大概也就是兩間吧)裏放置了一顆沒有剝皮的洋蔥。 醫生無法置信,因此就問是否可以要一顆洋蔥以便放在顯微鏡下觀察觀察。她就給了他一顆。醫生觀察時真的在洋蔥上發現了流感病菌。 顯然,洋蔥吸收了病菌,因此讓這家人保持健康。 如今,我從亞利桑那州我的理髮師那裏聽到類似的故事。她說幾年前她的很多雇員感染流感,她的很多顧客也是如此。 次年,她在她的理髮店裏放了幾個果盤,裏面放了一些洋蔥。令她吃驚的是,她的員工沒有一個生病的。 看來洋蔥真的起作用,故事的核心是,買一些洋蔥吧!把它們擺放在你的家裏的果盤裏。 如果你是坐辦公室的,在你的辦公室裏,或者辦公桌下面,或者在櫃子頂部放置幾顆洋蔥吧。 試試看效果怎麼樣。我們去年做了,沒有人得流感。如果這樣做可以幫助你和你所愛的人不患感冒,那就太好了。 如果你仍然得了感冒,也許會是比較輕微的症狀。 不管結果如何,你又會有什麼損失呢?除了幾顆洋蔥之外。 我把這個建議送給我的朋友。她回復說了關於洋蔥的最有趣的實驗︰我不知道那個農民的故事,但是我知道我得了肺炎。 無需說,我病的不輕。我讀到一篇文章,建議把洋蔥的兩頭切掉,插在叉子上,然後把叉子放在花瓶裏,晚上放在病患身旁。 洋蔥會因為病菌而在次日清晨變黑。 果然,事情跟文章裏說的完全一樣。 洋蔥看起來糟透了,但我卻開始好轉過來。那篇文章還談到放在屋子裏的洋蔥和大蒜在多年前的黑死病中救了很多人的命。 為了你和你所愛的人的健康請擺放一顆沒有剝皮的洋蔥吧! 記得兩頭要切掉喔! *健康文章僅供分享參考* Place an unpeeled onion in the room!   When the flu killed 40 million people, a doctor visited various farms to see if it could help people fight the flu.   Many farmers and their families were infected with the flu, and many people died as a result. The doctor came to a farmer's house.   Unexpectedly, everyone in this family is very healthy.   The doctor asked how this house was different from others. The wife said that she had placed an unpeeled onion in every room in the house (about two at that time).   The doctor couldn't believe it, so he asked if he could have an onion under the microscope. She gave him one. The doctor did find flu germs on the onion during the observation.   Obviously, the onion absorbs the germs, thus keeping the family healthy.   Today, I hear a similar story from my hairdresser in Arizona. She said that a few years ago many of her employees were infected with the flu, as were many of her customers.   The following year, she put a few fruit plates in her barbershop with some onions. To her surprise, none of her employees were sick.   It seems that onions really work. The core of the story is, buy some onions! Put them in a fruit plate in your home.   If you're sitting in an office, put a few onions in your office, or under some, or on top of the cabinet.   If it seems to help you and your loved one not to catch a cold, that's great.   If you still have a cold, it may be a mild symptom.   No matter what the outcome, what will you lose? Besides a few onions.   I give this advice to my friends. She replied with the most interesting experiment about onions: I don't know the story of the farmer, but I know I have pneumonia.   Needless to say, I am not ill. I read an article that suggested cutting off both ends of the onion and inserting it on a fork. Then put the fork in a vase and place it next to the patient at night.   Onions will turn black early in the morning the next day due to germs.   Sure enough, things are exactly the same as described in the article.   That article also used onions and garlic in the house to save many people's lives from the Black Death many years ago. The onion looked terrible, but I started to get better.   For the health of you and your loved one, please place an unpeeled onion!   Remember to cut off both ends!   * Health Articles Reasonable Sharing Reference *

  • 當我們吃完後,一位滿頭亂髮的年輕的女侍過來收桌子。她停下來旁聽了達賴喇嘛與別人的對話,最後放下了工作,也坐了下來。過了一會兒,當沒人講話時,她對著達賴喇嘛說,"你不喜歡你面前的餅乾嗎?" As we finished, a young waitress with tangled, dirty-blond hair and a beaded headband began clearing our table. She stopped to listen to the conversation and finally sat down, abandoning her work. After a while, when there was a pause, she spoke to the Dalai Lama. “You didn’t like your cookie?” "我不餓,謝謝你" “Not hungry, thank you.” "我能,嗯,請教你一個問題嗎?" “Can I, um, ask a question?” "請啊" “Please.” "生命的意義到底是什麼?" 她帶著完全嚴肅的表情說。 She spoke with complete seriousness. “What is the meaning of life?” 在過去一周伴隨達賴喇嘛的時間裡,除了這個之外,所有可能的問題都被人過了。人們好像害怕問這個問題,這個真正的大問題。這問題一出,立即讓桌邊出現一段驚訝後的安靜。 In my entire week with the Dalai Lama, every conceivable question had been asked—except this one. People had been afraid to ask the one—the really big—question. There was a brief, stunned silence at the table. 達賴喇嘛立刻回答了她。"生命的意義就是快樂。" 尊者抬起了手指,身子向前傾,專注地回答她的問題,彷彿全世界就只剩她一人。"這不是一個困難的問題。"生命的意義到底是什麼?"這是一個很容易回答的問題","但是,什麼是"快樂",那才是一個困難的問題","金錢? 豪宅? 事業成就? 朋友? 還是..."尊者暫停了一會兒,"慈悲與善良? 這是每個人都應該試著去回答自己的一個問題 : 真正能讓你快樂的是什麼?" 尊者用他特有的強調語氣反問之後,停了下來,面帶笑容地望著她。 The Dalai Lama answered immediately. “The meaning of life is happiness.” He raised his finger, leaning forward, focusing on her as if she were the only person in the world. “Hard question is not, ‘What is meaning of life?’ That is easy question to answer! No, hard question is what make happiness. Money? Big house? Accomplishment? Friends? Or …” He paused. “Compassion and good heart? This is question all human beings must try to answer: What make true happiness?” He gave this last question a peculiar emphasis and then fell silent, gazing at her with a smile. "謝謝,"女侍說,"謝謝。" 她站了起來,把桌上剩下的杯盤清理了之後,轉身離開 “Thank you,” she said, “thank you.” She got up and finished stacking the dirty dishes and cups, and took them away. 。

  • 不知是真是假? 轉載 我和太太在由美國返台8月13號班機上,看到機艙內不少年輕洋仔,多數是年輕美國人⋯⋯雖坐不同座位區,看頭髮氣質卻嗅得出,這些應該都是軍人,但是我們想他們來台做什麼?台灣邊境尚未開放-⋯⋯這一群人,他們看起來決非一般觀光客-⋯⋯當日同班機上,數目至少有一個步兵連之多,他們卻悄悄入境台灣這是以往我一陣子往返台美航班,所未見的狀況,這群長相類似軍人的年輕人,其中還有華裔青年英語能力極佳(應該在美生長的)他點東西都只用英文,但他中文能力亦不弱,剛好坐我們旁邊,從上機到下機,他們坐姿身型都像是軍人。另一事⋯⋯聯想⋯⋯他們來台應該不是旅遊的,是否準備點燃兩岸戰火的,要讓整個戰爭爆發看上去、是台灣弟兄憎恨大陸,主動先開火。所以⋯⋯這些來自長相類似"美國軍人",尤其其中華裔青年,是否將冒充台灣軍方弟兄,故意先開火引戰⋯美國-⋯⋯派這群人甚至華裔青年所為何來?是否主動先開戰,挑撥台灣和大陸之間⋯⋯如普丁說的:美國在正在把台灣烏克化⋯⋯。 轉貼我台北友人對這一則訊息的回覆:上週我晚上路過復興南路豆漿清粥小菜一帶,發現有個pub,裏外出現不少舉止像軍人的年輕老外男女,是從未出現過的景象。轉載My wife and I were on the flight returning from the US on August 13, we saw a young cruiser with the machine, many of them were older Americans in different seats. Looking at the quality of the head, some of them were military men, but I guess he was doing what? The Taiwanese border has not yet been opened - a group of people, and he seemed to have made unusual visitors - on the same flight the next day, there were at least one infantry brigade, and he entered Taipei borderIt is a success that I have never seen in my lifetime to return to Taiwan.The commander of the group is similar to the age of the military, among them he has excellent English skills (the potential of the president of the United States). He only uses English in East and West, but his Chinese ability is not weak. He sits on my side, and sits on the plane to off the plane, and his body looks like a military man.One more thing to think about him in Taiwan is not for travel. Whether he is ready to burn fireworks. It looks like he is going to burn the whole fire. It looks like the Taiwanese brothers are shouting at him. He is the one who took the initiative to open the fire.So some of the leaders who look similar to "American soldiers", especially young men among them, pretend to be Taiwanese military brothers and deliberately open fire to retrieve them first.What did the American-Hongkong dispatchers even call the youth? Whether or not, the event will be held, the challenge of the Urawa Osunoma StationTypical: Meijiang is trashing Taiwan. I'm sorry for my Taipei friends:Last week, I passed by in the evening to reconstruct the South Road tofu and a bowl of fresh vegetables. There was a private pub, and a lot of appearances outside the town prevented the elderly men and women who looked like military men and women. It was a sight that had never appeared before.

  • 英國中文僑報最近訪問在英國的習近平前妻柯玲玲,她比習大兩歲,1979-1982年結婚三年,離婚後留學英國,現任醫生和教授。這是有關習早年婚姻狀況的首次披露。1951 年出生,64 歲的柯小明(柯玲玲)是原中國駐英大使柯華的小女兒,她也是習近平的前妻。受過良好教育的柯玲玲,目前她是倫敦一家私立醫院的高級主任,也是倫敦大學亞非醫學院的客座教授。她在近日接受了英國《僑報》的採訪。 1979年柯玲玲與習近平結婚,因為價值觀與性格的不同,1982年,她與結婚三年的習近平離婚,移民英國。而那時的習近平正競選正定縣委書記,習近平毅然放棄了與柯玲玲一同移民英國的機會,並指責柯玲玲貪戀西方繁華。經多次勸說讓習近平移民無效,兩人最終分道揚鑣。與習近平離婚,你覺得後悔嗎? 柯: 在那個年代,離婚其實是一件非常重要的事情,我和習近平的婚姻很短暫,很重要的一點就是我們幾乎沒有共同點,談不上什麼後悔不後悔的。他以前是一個很執著的人,想幹一番大事業,反正好像我說的話他都聽不進去,所以我才選擇了離婚這條路。距離不可能讓我們產生現實的婚姻和感情。當時我的父親是非常反對的,他總是認為我做事很魯莽。 你們之後有聯繫過嗎?柯:在我去英國的前三年裡,他幾乎每週都打電話給我,你知道那個年代從中國打電話到英國是不方便的,中國還沒有普及電話,條件不比現在,但是我一個電話都沒有接聽過,這讓他非常傷心。我知道他也曾經試圖挽回這段婚姻,我當時是鐵了心了。久而久之,我們也就沒有什麼聯繫了。我知道他心裡還是有這份感情的。 你當時會想到習近平會成為中國的領導人嗎? 柯:沒有,完全不會這樣去想。他成為中國國家主席,我是非常替他高興的,因為我離開他的時候,他還只是個科級幹部。他是一個很有理想的人,我一直認為他很有潛能,但在當時他的潛能對我而言一無是處。 你覺得在你心裡,習近平是一個怎麼樣的人? 柯:雖然我和他在一起的時候,大部分時間我們經常發生爭吵,分歧很大,但是我還是認為他是一個正直的人。他不會像其他人一樣,昧著良心去做一些利己的事情,這是我以前非常看重他的一點。以前我認為他太過於固執,也可能是因為我們相處的時間很短暫,我對他不是很瞭解吧。現在回過頭來看,其實他做的很多事情都是對的,只是自己當年太年輕,比較容易衝動。他不是一個理想主義者,他做事是有規劃,有步驟的。我可能會更理想主義一些,畢竟女性都會喜歡懂得浪漫的男人,但是習近平不是,我很多時候覺得他過於刻板,這與我們的成長環境和教育背景有很大關係。 離婚以後的那麼多年,你們都沒有見過面嗎?柯:他還是國家副主席的時候,我們在深圳見過一次。那是我,我姐姐,還有我父親回深圳掃墓,他當時來深圳考察工作,慰問了我父親,我當時也在,他跟我們全家人握了握手,包括我。其實是很尷尬的一次會面,大概一起坐了半個小時,聊了一些東西,我只覺得他看上去老了許多。 習近平會在 10 月訪英,你有什麼期待? 柯:中國使館那邊已經透過一些管道邀請我作為英國僑界的代表參加一個歡迎宴會,他上任中共總書記三年,第一次來英國訪問,對中英兩國都是有好處的,我作為英國的華人,感到很榮幸,也很高興。 Above message in English from Google translator. British Chinese Overseas Chinese News recently interviewed Ke Lingling, Xi Jinping’s ex-wife in the UK. She was two years older than Xi Jinping, married for three years from 1979 to 1982, and studied in the UK after her divorce. She is now a doctor and professor. This is the first disclosure of Xi's early marital status. Born in 1951, 64-year-old Ke Xiaoming (Ke Lingling) is the youngest daughter of Ke Hua, the former Chinese ambassador to the UK, and Xi Jinping's ex-wife. Ke Lingling, who is well educated, is currently a senior director of a private hospital in London and a visiting professor at the School of Asian and African Medicine, University of London. She recently accepted an interview with the British "Qiao Bao". Ke Lingling married Xi Jinping in 1979. Because of her differences in values ​​and personalities, she divorced Xi Jinping who had been married for three years in 1982 and immigrated to the UK. At that time, Xi Jinping was running for the secretary of the Zhengding County Party Committee. Xi Jinping resolutely gave up the opportunity to immigrate to the UK with Ke Lingling, and accused Ke Lingling of being greedy for Western prosperity. After repeated persuasion to make Xi Jinping's immigration invalid, the two finally parted ways. Do you regret divorcing Xi Jinping? Ke: In those days, divorce was actually a very important matter. My marriage with Xi Jinping was very short. The important point is that we have almost nothing in common, so there is no regret or regret. He used to be a very persistent person and wanted to start a big career. Anyway, he didn't seem to listen to what I said, so I chose the road of divorce. It is impossible for us to have a realistic marriage and relationship with distance. My father was very against it at the time, he always thought I was reckless. Have you been in touch since then? Ke: In the first three years when I went to the UK, he called me almost every week. You know that it was inconvenient to call from China to the UK at that time. China has not yet popularized telephones, and the conditions are not as good as now, but I alone None of the calls were answered, which made him very sad. I know that he also tried to save this marriage, and I was determined at that time. Over time, we lost touch with each other. I know he still has this feeling in his heart. Did you think that Xi Jinping would become the leader of China? Ke: No, I don't think so at all. He became the President of China, and I am very happy for him, because when I left him, he was just a department-level cadre. He was an ideal guy, I always thought he had potential, but at the time his potential meant nothing to me. What kind of person do you think Xi Jinping is in your heart? Ke: Although when I was with him, we often quarreled and had great differences most of the time, but I still think he is an upright person. Like other people, he will not do some selfish things against his conscience. This is what I valued him very much before. In the past, I thought he was too stubborn, maybe it was because the time we spent together was very short, and I didn't know him very well. Looking back now, in fact, many things he did were right, but he was too young and impulsive. He is not an idealist, he does things in a planned and step-by-step manner. I may be more idealistic. After all, women will like men who understand romance, but Xi Jinping is not. I often think that he is too rigid. This has a lot to do with our growth environment and educational background. Haven't you met each other for so many years after the divorce? Ke: We met once in Shenzhen when he was the vice president of the country. That was me, my sister, and my father went back to Shenzhen to visit the grave. He came to Shenzhen to inspect work and condolences to my father. I was there at the time. He shook hands with our whole family, including me. In fact, it was an awkward meeting. We sat together for about half an hour and talked about some things. I just think he looks much older. Xi Jinping will visit the UK in October, what do you expect? Ke: The Chinese embassy has invited me through some channels to attend a welcome banquet as a representative of the British overseas Chinese community. He has been the general secretary of the Communist Party of China for three years, and his first visit to the UK is beneficial to both China and the UK. British Chinese feel very honored and very happy.

REUTERS/Ann Wang/File Photo WASHINGTON, June 29 (Reuters) - U.S. Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo on Monday said she had spoken with the chief executive of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd (2330.TW) (TSMC) and that he had asked for help getting access to COVID-19 vaccines. Raimondo told Reuters in an interview "he asked for help in that regard, he has spoken to high level officials in the White House. We have responded and we definitely want to be a good partner and I do think it's helping." Taiwan said two weeks ago it will allow officials from Taiwan's Foxconn and TSMC to negotiate on its behalf for COVID-19 vaccines. read more Mid-June the United States shipped 2.5 million COVID-19 vaccine doses to Taiwan, more than tripling Washington's previous allocation of shots for the island. read more TSMC said in a statement to Reuters that they believed "getting vaccines for Taiwan would help to protect the communities and ensure normal operations." Taiwan has been trying to speed up the arrival of the millions of vaccines it has on order as it deals with a rise in domestic cases, although infections remain comparatively low. The request from TSMC, the world's biggest manufacturer of semiconductors on contract, coincides with a global chip shortage that has slowed production of manufacturers around the world, including in the U.S. auto industry where it is forecast the crisis will hit the production of 3.9 million vehicles. Raimondo has a key role in resolving the crisis for U.S. companies. Although there has been no major impact so far on chip production in Taiwan since domestic cases began rising in the middle of May, some U.S. auto executives have told Reuters privately earlier this month they were concerned COVID-19 in Taiwan could impact the flow of semiconductors to U.S. factories.

  • 被『強酸強鹼』噴到或淋到時要如何處理? 2013年11月份,台灣石油工會,第一分會月刊報導(高雄廠) 作者,許廷訓,台灣中油公司(Taiwan cpc petroleum )服務, 目前是兼任,高壓特定氣体訓練班(中油公司,對新進員工的基礎訓練)的助教。 在高壓氣体訓練班的課程,我問過將近100個,以上來自台灣中油,全國各單位的工作人員,你們如果被硫酸淋到時你要如何做,所有的人異口同聲說,要用大量的清水沖洗,80%以上的人都有大學以上的學歷,他們都這樣說,我當場告訴他們,如果是這樣的,你會死的很難看,這也是我認為該公開讓大家知道的原因,目前高雄廠,所有有強酸強鹼的地方,告示牌(物質安全資料表),所有的說明都說,如被強酸強鹼淋到時要用大量的清水沖洗……..這種說法是正確嗎?如不正確為什麼幾十年來沒人質疑?在學校的化學實驗室老師,也是這樣告訴我們的? 本人以前曾經被因銹蝕管線針孔洩漏的硫酸所噴到,當時的感覺是好像有一個火把靠近你的臉頰,很熱很熱,我當然了解是被硫酸所噴到,(只是當時必須離開現場,因為那裡洩漏,一時間,看不出來那洩漏的地點),當時我所做的是,用未被硫酸所噴到的衣服擦拭被硫酸所噴到的臉頰,再去沖水,5-10分鐘,但是這跟沒有擦拭去沖水有什麼差別? N年前高雄廠,曾發生運酸槽車在洩酸入TANK時槽車出口管線,因壓力爆開,當時有兩個人被噴到,但是事後一個沒事(槽車司機)另一個人住院植皮,每天哀哀叫,時間長達十個月,為什麼差這麼多,原因是事發當時,司機很鎮靜,立即脫光身上所有的衣褲,拿起事先準備好的清潔棉布,擦拭身上的硫酸,再去沖先,另一個本場的工作人員,則是驚慌失措一路叫喊《救命》,待有人發現,他被硫酸所噴到時,用水沖洗他身上的硫酸,這一洗,洗出大問題,當然不洗也是大問題,時間是毫秒計算,為什麼差這麼多? 原因是硫酸的沸點為338℃,水的沸點只有100℃,水遇到硫酸時開始沸騰產生反應熱,硫酸可以迅速與蛋白質及脂肪發生醯胺水解作用及酯水解作用,從而分解生物組織,造成化學性燒傷。不過,其對肉體的強腐蝕性還與它的強烈脫水性有關,因為硫酸還會與生物組織中的碳水化合物發生脫水反應並釋出大量熱能。 除了造成化學燒傷,所以如有任何人遇到硫酸,正確的處理方式應該保持鎮靜,找出現場可以擦拭的棉布或其他可以擦拭的紙等(這是減量,減少附著在皮膚的硫酸),立即擦拭再去沖水5-10分鐘。 最多只是如一級燒燙傷,這一事件後我遇到一個在大發工業區擔任某化學公司,槽車司機的X先生,我問他遇到時如何處理,他說就這麼處理,我問他為什麼不將這消息公告給社會大眾知道?他說了,幹,人家官大學問大,我只是一個司機,人家會聽我的意見嗎,我無言以對。 他舉出三個例子,來說明處理方式不同所造成的結果,第一例,在國道一號上發生遊覽車撞擊,鹽酸槽車事故,槽車破裂,遊覽車上的檔風玻璃也破了,鹽酸噴到司機的眼睛,隨車小姐立即以飲用瓶裝水沖洗司機的眼睛,結果是,後來司機的眼睛洗好了,司機的眼睛,也完蛋了,第二例發生在某加工區,槽車洩酸時,也發生因長時間使用後的物質脆化(當時忘了問他材質到底是塑膠的或橡膠的,約使用多久了)洩酸管線爆裂了,一個不知是好奇或無知的經理,靠近槽車很不幸的,那經理被噴到了,當然槽車司機處理經驗很豐富,立即脫光那經理身上所有的衣物幫他擦拭後再沖洗,入院十多天就回家,無大事,第三例,發生在該生產硫酸的公司內,兩個工作人員,被破裂管線的硫酸所噴到,一個如同第二例,司機幫忙處理,另一個,因一時間他無法幫忙,其他現場的人也驚嚇到,不敢也不懂,幫另一個被酸噴到的人脫衣服,而是直接用水幫他沖洗,結果,後果很慘痛,体無完膚,根據司機的說法,醫生所開的嗎啡給患者服用都無效,無法止痛,也是哀哀叫長達幾個月。 本文出來前,我所做的實驗,(戴有面罩的安全帽掛橡膠手套及護目鏡穿雨衣)去買已切好的豬皮20X10用鐵丁固定在木板上,用鹽酸做實驗,有擦拭和沒有擦過的實驗結果一目了然,所以被強酸鹼所噴到一定要先擦拭過再沖水,才是保命之道。 如果我們把濃硫酸慢慢地倒入水中,卻是安安靜靜的,水只是漸漸的變熱,而且不濺開來。當濃硫酸與水遇在一起,就發生化學反應,生成水合物,同時放出大量的熱,1公斤的濃硫酸與水化合時放出的熱量,足以使2公斤的冷水,一下子升高到攝氏100度。 濃硫酸看上去像油,可是卻比水重(1.9倍),比同體積的水差不多要重上一倍,很明顯,如果把水倒進濃硫酸,水就浮在濃硫酸上,當發生化學反應時,水就猛烈地沸騰起來,四處飛濺。 如果反過來把濃硫酸倒進水裡,情況就不一樣了,濃硫酸比水重,把濃硫酸慢慢地倒進水中,它就逐漸地沉到水底,然後再分佈到溶液的各個部分,這樣,反映所產生的熱量被均勻地分配到整個溶液,溫度慢慢上升,不會使水迅速地騰起來。 本人在此真誠的建議,各級學校的實驗室或化學系所,各公司有用到強酸鹼的地方,應立即修改告示牌(物質安全資料表,有強酸鹼的地方,應準備棉布做擦拭用,不要用化學纖維布,大林廠有硫酸法的烷化(以硫酸為催化劑的製程)工場,更應該準備好,因為10年20年後所有的管線,除非全面更新,絕對會這裡漏,那裡漏。 備註,本文部份,參考維基百科及網路文章,感謝工安課,王錦波先生與第七硫磺總領班,楊耀昆先生對本文的校正。 ,也歡迎老師,本人在此授權,請賢人翻譯成英日文,給世界各國的朋友分享,請將公司的CPC排在前頭,說明這是在台灣的CPC公司人員所做的實驗。 Nov. 2013, Monthly journal report of 1st branch of OIL LABOR UNION in Kaohsiung Taiwan CPC. By Mr. Hsu Ting XUN, serve in Taiwan CPC, now is the part time TA for the HIGH-PRESSURE SPECIFIC GAS training class, a class which trains all the new employees in CPC. In the HIGH PRESSURE training class, I ever asked more than 100 members from all different departments and branches of CPC TAIWAN., “If you were sprayed or poured by sulfuric acid, what would you do!?” The answer is 100% in unison “Rinse with great amount of water!” You know, 80% of these members graduated from universities. They all did say so. Hearing the answer, I on the spot told them “If you did so, you were destined to die ugly”This is why I insist to make it public. Nowadays in Kaohsiung plant, all where there is sulfuric acid or alkali, as well as all the bulletin boards [material safety sheets]shows: “Rinse with great amount of water while sprayed by sulfuric acid” But is this statement appropriate and accurate!?If not, why for decades nobody doubted!? And we were all taught so by chemistry teachers in labs of schools? Before, I ever sprayed by sulfuric acid leaking from the needle hole of a corrosivepipe. I felt like a burning torch accessing my face. It’s extremely hot. I surely realizedit wassulfuric acid, but I couldn’t spot where the leaking hole was. I had to leave right at that moment. The step took first was to wipe my sprayed face with the clean part of my clothes then, rinsedit with water for 5-10 minutes. But on earth, what makes the difference with the way you rinsedwithout wiping it clean first!? Years ago in Kaohsiung plant, a sulfuric acid transporting truck’s exporting pipeline burst because of pressure while vented sulfuric acid into the tank. Two men were sprayed. Yet later on, one man [the driver] was not serious, while another one had to be hospitalized andgrafted, leading a crying miserable life for ten months. Why such a big contrast! The reason is right at thatmoment, the driver completely calmed himself down, ripped all his dressing off then, wipedsulfuric acid with the clean cotton that he used to prepare ahead, then rinsedwith water the last. As to the other man, he was crying and screaming in panic all the way till someone found him and helpedrinse with great amount of water. Here the key problem is: Water or NOT WATER firstdefinitely matter a lot! It was so urgent, what made such a big difference? You know the boiling point of sulfuric acid is 338centigrade degree while water only 100. When water meetssulfuric, water begins to boil and produce heatas reaction. Sulfuric acid, along with protein and fat, rapidly facilitates[R-C-NH2] hydrolysisandEster hydrolysis, further todecompose bio- tissue, causing the chemical burns. Its strong corrosion to body dorelate toits strong dehydration.Sulfuric acid can cause dehydration reaction when it meets the carbohydrate of bio-tissue then, release great amount of heat to causechemical burns. So for anybody sprayed by sulfuric acid, the accurate approach is to calm down,immediatelywipe off acid with clean cotton or paper available [this is to minify or reduce the sulfuric acid on skin] ,then rinse 5-10 minutes. The worst resultcan only be one grade burn. Afterwards, I met Mr. X, a tank driver who served in a chemistry company in DAFA INDUSTRIALZONE. I asked what he would do if he met same situation. The answer was completely the same approach. Then why he didn’t make it public? His answer was“I am just a driver, can any high ranking officer listen to my opinion!?” I was totally speechless. He gave three examples to illustrate three different results caused by the diverse handling procedure:[a]. One tour bus bumped into sulfuric acid- loading truck on the ZHONGSHAN national freeway. The tank broke down. So did the window shield of the tour bus. Acid sprayed onto the bus driver’s eyes. The lady tour guide spontaneouslyrinsed his eyes with bottle water. The eyes were washed, but ruined.[b].This accident happened in THE PROCESSING ZONE. When an acid tank vented, the venting pipeline burst [pipelinebeing brittle after long use.][Material of pipe is plastic or rubber, or how long it has been used not known]. An either curious or ignorant manager walked close to the tank and unfortunately he was sprayed. Thanks to the well experienced tank driver, he immediately ripped off all the manager’s dressing, wiped his body clean, thenrinsed with water. About 10 days in hospital, he returned home without big problem. [c].In a sulfuric acid producing company, two workers sprayed by the broken pipeline. One was managed under accurate approach, yet another one was not so lucky. He, with the help of the stunned people around, directly rinsed the body. What’s the result!? Miserable and severely!! He kept hospitalized for long,even the morphine prescribed by doctor couldn’tkill his pain, recalled the poor worker. Before this article came public, I did an experiment [wearinghelmet with mask, rubber gloves, goggle and raincoat].I bought some chopped pigskin 20x10,nailedthemontowood . After pouring acid, I observed the wipedand not wiped pigskin, and the result was obvious at aglance. So if sprayed by acid or alkali, wipe clean first, then rinse. This is the life-saving approach. If we pour thick sulfuric acid into water, quietly and gradually the water will be getting hot, and will not splash. When thick sulfuric acid mixes with water, chemical reaction happens, producing hydrate and at the same time releasing big amount of heat. The heat released by 1kg thick sulfuric acid hydrating with water can lead to a sudden rise of temperature of 2kg cold water to100 centigrade degree. Thick sulfuric acid looks like oil, but actually it is heavier than water by 1.9 times, and heavier 1 time than water of same volume. Obviously, if we pour water into thick sulfuric acid, water will float on the acid.Chemical reaction happens, water will violently be getting hot, and splash all over. ON the contrary, if we pour thick sulfuric acid into water, the effect differs. It is heavier than water, it will gradually sink into bottom and distribute in each part of liquid, so the reacting heat is distributed in the liquid in average. The temperature rises slowly and slowly, the water will not be getting hot rapidly andfuriously. Here, I sincerely suggest that all labs and chemistry departments in schools or all companies where sulfuric acid and alkali are used should amend all bulletin boards [material safety sheets]. Where there is sulfuric acid or alkali, cotton[no chemical fiber cloth] should be readily prepared. Especially, DALIN plant has the alkylation workplace of sulfuric acid [Sulfuric acid or hydrofluoric acid as a catalyst in processing]. It should have to be well prepared, because all the pipelines absolutely should be leaking where and there after 10 or 20 years, unless they are all updated.
