Snake people are unpredictable, and it’s difficult to second-guess what they are thinking. Don’t expect to see them flitting around from one project to the next; when a snake decides to do something you can be sure that he has thought through every detail of his plan. Snake people are the quintessential epicureans who revel in the finer things in life, like fine wines, good food and sparkling conversation. Due to their inherent introspectiveness, snake people can be misconstrued as shy or aloof.
屬蛇的人難以捉摸,外人很難猜測他們內心的想法。他們做事不會虎頭蛇尾、半途而廢;一旦決定做一件事,一定會先擬定計畫,仔細想過每個細節。肖蛇者是典型的享樂主義者,喜歡沉迷於生活中美好的事物,如:美酒、美食及活潑有趣的談話。因為天性好自省,所以肖蛇者有時會因為害羞或漠然而遭到誤會。
FOR 2009:
Money: A great fortune could be coming your way, but only if you are prepared to work hard for it. If you are lazy, then opportunity will pass you by.
Love: Tread carefully in love this year. Snake people in relationships could be in for a rough time, while single snakes are unlikely to find love.
Health: The biggest danger is letting negative feelings from your love life affect your physical well-being. (John Phillips, staff writer)
二OO九年的運勢:
財運:可能會得到一筆為數不小的財富,但你得努力工作才能得到。如果太懶散,機會就會和你擦肩而過。
愛情運:要用心維繫感情。有伴侶的人可能會陷入感情低潮,單身者也不太容易找到對象。
健康運:最大的健康危機是讓戀情不順的負面情緒連帶影響健康。(翻譯:袁星塵)

The US-Israeli war on Iran, launched on Feb. 28, has set the Middle East alight, threatening millions of people’s lives and livelihoods as the violence spreads in widening arc stretching from central Asia to the edge of Europe. The joint operation, named “Epic Fury” by the US and “Roaring Lion” by Israel, has been sold as a high-impact show of intimidating power, but its impact so far beyond the chaos and bloodshed is unclear. What is certain is that predictions that this type of war would destabilize the region have indeed rapidly materialized. What is the background to this war? For decades, the
The English Lake District, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2017, is renowned for its landscapes, literary legacy and traditional farming. Yet, its esteemed status now sits at the center of a debate: is the designation protecting the region—or harming it? Conservationist Lee Schofield has sparked controversy by campaigning to revoke the Lake District’s World Heritage status. He argues that the label reinforces unsustainable farming, particularly the dominance of sheep grazing, which prevents ecological restoration and harms biodiversity. The famous Herdwick sheep, while culturally significant, contribute to overgrazing, soil erosion, and the prevention of forest recovery. Schofield clarifies that
