Timothy Tin 2022-04 While the world is slowly recovering from the threat of the Omicron variant, on February 24, 2022, Russia suddenly invaded Ukraine! A military attack initiated by President Putin, the largest military operation in Europe since WWII, is intended to “demilitarize” and “denazify” Ukraine. To demilitarize is to prevent NATO’s eastward expansion, and to denazify is to seek revenge on Germany’s invasion of Russia 77 years ago, while Russia now claims that Ukraine still has Nazi sympathizers. Most western nations agree that Putin is overreaching with this military operation, but he insisted on preparing troops for this invasion, despite Ukrainians’ unfazed resistance. He even threatened with

Doctor Luke 2022-03 No.228 In Acts 1:8, Jesus said to the disciples before His ascension, “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” And in chapter two of Acts, after the Holy Spirit descended upon the disciples, “All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them.” There were about 3000 people who believed in Christ on that day as they heard the apostles declaring the wonders of God in their native

Alice Cheng When the Bible talks about creation, it doesn’t focus on “how” but “why” the world was created- the relationship between the Creator and the creation. God the Creator is the Lord over this material world. He has purposely placed man into this wonderful and orderly world of affection to live a life in tune with His Will. Obey the Order of “Heavenly Mandate” God has created this material world of order in time and space: Day and night for work and rest (Genesis 1:5) 6 days in a week for work and 1 day of rest (Genesis 2:2-3) Each planet running on track Establishing time and

Raymond Cheng CreationCare120  Founding Member Creation120.info   I remember the trip to Columbia Icefield in the Canadian Rockies in Alberta my friends and I had in 2014, I compared the sight before me with what was there 20 years back at the same scenic overlook, in the same season. I realized that the coach had to drive for a longer distance to reach the glacier where ice was not melted. I believe it is a crisis that people generally notice about global warming. Scientists have cautioned many years ago that with an average of 2 ºC rise of the global temperature, there will be lots of severe climate

MARCH 1, 2022 Timothy Tin On January 14 and 15th, an underwater volcano in the South Pacific’s country Tonga named Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai erupted continuously. According to World Journal’s reporting: “Heavy smoke and ashes reached the height of 20 miles and the huge amount of lava completely engulfed the island of Tonga. In 1783, Iceland’s Mount Laki’s eruption led to a significant decline in the average temperature of that winter in Europe; in 1815, Indonesia’s Mount Tambora’s eruption caused the entire earth’s average temperature to drop 0.4 to 0.7 degrees Celsius. A volcanologist named Shane Cronin of University of Auckland claimed that the recent eruption in Tonga is

Omicron has hit hard on our social life, economy, and our mental health. Omicron is beyond our control but we can seek sharp changes under adversity, like the metamorphosis of a butterfly!

Don’t get stuck in a dead end. Be flexible and gentle in dealing with people and things. Go outside

Helen Man marriage today In 2010, 39% of Americans thought traditional marriage (union between one man and one woman) was “outdated”. Since the U.S. Supreme Court legalized same-sex marriage nationwide in 2013, American views on marriage have declined rapidly. According to Gallup Poll: Americans are gradually accepting same-sex marriage. In 2011, only 48% of Americans approved of same-sex marriage but the percentage jumped up to 70% in 2021. Views on the value of legal marriage have changed as well: Americans now believe that marriage is not important, and cohabitation is acceptable. As for divorce, 79% of Americans now believe that divorce is normal (vs. 69% in 2011) As

Timothy Tin While the world was under the threat of the Omicron variant, the most advanced telescope was launched into space on December 25, 2021. Titled James Webb Telescope, it employed the latest technology after twenty five years of design and production costing ten billion USD. It weighed 6.2 tons, approximately half the weight of the Hubble Space Telescope (which weighed 11 tons), but its diameter is five times larger than the Hubble Space Telescope! The James Webb Telescope is also situated at 1.5 million kilometers from earth. If it experiences any technical difficulty, there is no way technicians can be dispatched for repair. Thus, the telescope’s design

Alice Cheng A linear life trajectory follows the stages of age: doing well in school, finding a good job, getting married and having children, retiring, and enjoying old age. This model of life focuses on the values and goals on fulfilling responsibilities, seeking security and success, and believing that one can truly enjoy life after having wealth and retirement. The focus of the “micro-life” perspective, however, lies in the pursuit of balance and the life you want to live and living in the moment. Micro-life Micro-life is to plan and distribute your top priorities and desires. There’s no need to wait until retirement. Don’t let long hours of
