Environmental friendly food container and chopstick

What do you consider before you purchase a product? Normally, we will consider the price, usage, customer service...etc.

Nowadays, I prefer to buy environmental friendly or green product.

Today, I would like to show you something I always carry with me. It's my food container and chopstick which I bought from Tzu Chi (慈济) a year ago.



I like the design of both the food container and chopstick.

The white food container is simple and nice. It is made of polycarbonate which is also the material of baby feeding-bottle. I bring it with me most of the time. When I "da bao" (take away) food, I will use this rather than polystyrene container, which harm the planet and our own health. Some of the plastic food container is not easy to clean especially after filled with oily food. However, this is not a problem for me because this container is really easy to clean. I can even sterilize it in boiled water as it is heat-resistant (140C).



Besides the food container, I will also bring with me the reusable chopstick. It is always in my bag whenever I go. When I traveled to Taiwan, it was the best tool I used to try the various of instant noodle. The chopstick is consist of two part, the bottom part made of SPS and the handle part made of PC. If I am not convenient to wash it right after use, I will simply wipe it with tissue and put it back to the box. The cleaning job can be done after back to home.



Besides food utensil, there are many more environmental friendly or green product, like energy saving electronic items. Friend, do something for our planet and do something to take care of your health. : )

Please feel free to share with us your environmental friendly items so that we can exchange our idea.

May all beings be well and happy.

The main difference between http:// and https://

I got this information from an e-mail. Friends, please take note of this information!

Quote:

The main difference between
http:// and https:// is

It's all about keeping you secure

HTTP stands for HyperText Transport Protocol, which is just a fancy way of saying it's a protocol (a language, in a manner of speaking) for information to be passed back and forth between web servers and clients.

The important thing is the letter S which makes the difference between HTTP and HTTPS. The S (big surprise) stands for "Secure".

If you visit a website or webpage, and look at the address in the web browser, it will likely begin with the following: http://. This means that the website is talking to your browser using the regular 'unsecure' language.

In other words, it is possible for someone to "eavesdrop" on your computer's conversation with the website. If you fill out a form on the website, someone might see the information you send to that site.

This is why you never ever ever enter your credit card number in an http website!

But if the web address begins with https://, that basically means your computer is talking to the website in a secure code that no one can eavesdrop on.

You understand why this is so important, right? If a website ever asks you to enter your credit card information, you should automatically look to see if the web address begins with https://. If it doesn't, there's no way you're going to enter sensitive information like a credit card number!

http VS https

Check the Tigerair
http://www.tigerair ways.com/ home/ and Jetstar airways http://www.jetstar. com/3k/index. html both when come to booking the ticket and keying the personal information it's show https
BOOKING
https://booking. tigerairways. com/skylights/ cgi-bin/skylight s.! cgi and https://jetstar. com/skylights/ cgi-bin/skylight s.cgi

SO it is safe to do that booking.... pls remember when you buy any thing online make sure passing your information on the website showing https REPEAT https........... don't doing anything that is without the " s "

UnQuote

I had just checked the Maybank2u Online Financial service, when come to login by insert username and password, it's show https.

I miss my family

My brother and wife were visit to Kuala Lumpur last weekend to attend their friend's wedding. I was so happy and touched when I saw what they brought for me from hometown, Kuantan which is 259km away from KL.

2 bottle of "Lo Han Guo" chinese herbal tea 罗汉果凉茶. One for me and one for Donald. My mom boil it in the midnight.

2 pack of herbal as the ingredient of herbal soup. My mom worry if I lack of good nutrition as I always eat outside food in KL. I had cook 1 pack of it during my off day.

Pineapple tart baked by mom.

My favourite, “Yong Bitter Gourd" 酿苦瓜 (the one in red plastic bag). Many youngster do not prefer bitter gourd, but I like it very much. The food cook by mom is always the best in the world! I share it with my house mate and all of them like it too!

I miss my family so much!

Although I can't see them everyday, I will call them everyday to share my life with them.

Since I was in secondary school, my family members were familiar with most of my friends.

When I study in MU , I was active in Buddhist Society. I always share with my mom what activities I had attend and told her what I learned.

When I came to working life, I still keep on our daily conversation and share my working life with them.

When we were small, we always report every single thing happened in school to our parents. What my teacher teach today....what my friends said to me....

However, most of us do not prefer to share everything in our life to parents as we grown up. We hope our parents do not ask so many question on us.
We will said : "Ok!Ok! I am no longer a kid, I know what to do."...."Don't worry, I have my own way to settle it".....

I always remind myself do not treat my family like that. We should maintain the pure heart like a kid. In parents prospective, we are always small children. As they growing old, they still hope they can protect and take care of their children. We should not ignore this and let them feel they cannot partake their children life anymore. We should always share our life with them and asking for their opinion and advices.

Many people think that pay back our parents by giving them money is the best way. Definitely it is not. We should share our life, although we cannot meet everyday.

Daddy mommy I love you! : )

Wish all of you happy and good health.
