Eat a Bowl of Tea is a 1989 film directed by Wayne Wang based on a novel by Louis Chu
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eat_a_Bowl_of_Tea_(novel)
It is a Chinese romantic film starring Cora Miao, Russell Wong(王盛德), Victor Wong(黃自強:1927.07.30-2001.09.12), Siu-Ming Lau and Eric Tsang.
Plot The story begins with exposition of the difficult lives of the first generation of male Chinese-American immigrants who were not allowed to bring their wives and families with them into the United States due to the Chinese Exclusion Act. For decades, these immigrant men have not seen their families they had left back in China. Ben (Russell Wong) is the son of one these immigrants and has just finished serving in the U.S. Army during World War II. Due to the G.I. Bill, he is allowed to bring a bride back from China which he does after an arranged marriage. Mei Oi (Cora Miao), the bride, besides being attracted to Ben also wants to see her father in the U.S., who emigrated to the States before she was born. As one of the first couples of child-bearing age within Chinatown, Ben and Mei Oi have to deal with the expectations of the entire Chinatown community as well as his father (Victor Wong). 11月20日 Thu 0:22:29 / 0:31:27 / 0:39:54
Explanation on the novel's title The title of the novel comes into play in the novel as Ben Loy takes the initiative to ask a Chinese herb specialist, Dr. Suey, if he has anything that would cure his impotence. The doctor responds, "Eat a bowl of tea and we'll get you on the way to recovery" (244).
Although the tea is "thick, black, bitter...[and] not easy to swallow" (246), Ben Loy "kept going back to the herb doctor uncomplainingly" (246). Whether it is the beneficial effect of the tea or a change in Ben Loy himself, Ben Loy regains his manhood at the conclusion of the novel.
"Eating" this tea represents Ben Loy breaking the rules and regulations of Chinese customs - rather than drink the tea, he "eats" it. Additionally, it represents Ben Loy's decision to release himself from the pressure and control of his father and independently create a life for himself and his family. By doing so, Ben Loy regains his masculinity both literally and figuratively. 11月20日 Thu 1:28:32
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dysdiadochokinesia
唔知今日喺商務見到嗰本牛津簡明醫學詞典有冇呢個病嘅資料/解釋?
只見本辭典有alveolar 同 sarcoma 嘅中英文詳細解釋 ~ 但知道 / 唔知道 又點呢
Dysdiadochokinesia, dysdiadochokinesis, dysdiadokokinesia, dysdiadokokinesis, or DDK (from Greek dys "bad", dia "across", docho "receive", kinesia "movement") is the medical term for an inability to perform rapid, alternating movements.
The diadochi (Greek for "successors") succeeded Alexander the Great. Their priests performed ritualistic hand movements which were the movements all medical students are taught to perform to elicit cerebellar disease in the upper limbs.
Causes It is a feature of cerebellar ataxia, and is the result of lesions to the posterior lobe of the cerebellum. It is thought to be caused by the inability to switch on and switch off antagonising muscle groups.
Dysdiadochokinesia is also seen in Friedreich's Ataxia and multiple sclerosis, as a cerebellar symptom (including ataxia, intentional tremor & dysarthria).
Presentation It is commonly demonstrated by asking the patient to tap the palm of one hand with the fingers of the other, then rapidly turn over the fingers and tap the palm with the back of them, repeatedly. This movement is known as a pronation/supination test of the upper extremity. A simpler method using this same concept is to ask the patient to demonstrate the movement of trying a door knob or screwing in a lightbulb.
Another method of testing for this condition is called the heel to shin test. This is performed by having the patient in a supine or sitting position. The heel of one foot is rubbed up and down the shin of the opposite leg in a rapid movement. A positive sign of this condition would be that the patient was not able to perform this movement quickly or steadily, instead showing slow and wobbly movements.
