| Rat Race In China? |
Warning -- disturbing images --- Do not read before meal.
Just after the news of the selling of rats meat mixed with lamb meat in China's restaurants and shops, a high school student in Zhejiang province found a rat in his breakfast, just bought from school canteen. The boy says: "I had one bite of the rice ball, and had a glimpse of the rat head in it, I did not believe it was a rat, and I had a better look.... than I had to run outside to vomit..... other classmates were vomiting as some of them had the same type of breakfast. Some male students quickly came to take photos..... (screenshot from Chinese blogs)
The Headmaster of the school told journalists that people from the local Food And Drug Administration had checked the canteen, and found dried rat bones, or half of the head of ra at in dried mushrooms.(photo below). In Chinese cooking, normally, dry mushrooms have to be washed and soaked in water before cooking. A blogger says: Now I understand why students should not be allowed to carry mobile phones to school... you see, once these photos up on the web.......too much trouble.....
According to the Headmaster, students who eat the same dish were sent to hospital but suffered no ill symptoms. |
All this worldly wisdom was once the unamiable heresy of some wise man. |

An article in
Taiwan Health magazine reveals that many of the concepts we have
regarding our bodies, are in fact wrong. Common knowledge is
incorrect more often than you may realize. Let's have a look
at some examples below:
At the start of
October, the Chinese Health Ministry reported nearly 12,000
people had been diagnosed with swine flu, 7500 recovered and no

Many
people may believe that the moon's periodic changes affect human
beings. The most obvious example is the menstrual period of women.
Under normal conditions, a woman's period occurs every 28 days,
exactly in between a sidereal month (the time between maximum
elevations of a fixed star as seen from the Moon, which is
approximately 27 days) and a lunar...
My experience
is typical of the Chinese official group in Germany. I left
China in my younger days and studied in a German university.
After graduation, I started working, got married and have
children. My husband is also the same. So in fact I do not
