【美台醫學研究合作新里程碑】

近年來肺癌及上呼吸道癌症病率不斷上升，為美國和台灣癌症死亡率最高的癌症。2019年美台簽署了肺癌及上呼吸道癌症研究的合作協定，由 #美國國家衛生研究院、#台北榮民總醫院 和 #國立陽明交通大學共同參與此項研究計畫，並在台灣建立了#史蒂芬索拉茲國際研究實驗室。

該合作突顯出東西方肺癌及上呼吸道癌症患者的差異，並加速開發診斷、治療和預防肺癌及上呼吸道惡性腫瘤的新方法。這些惡性腫瘤每年在全世界共造成200萬人死亡。臨床試驗即將在美國國家衛生研究院臨床中心與台北榮民總醫院同時展開。美國國家衛生研究院臨床中心是世界上從事醫學研究最大的專門醫院，台北榮民總醫院也是亞洲最大、最負盛名的醫院之一。

美國在台協會很高興於9月24日在見證了這個位於台北榮民總醫院的國際實驗室正式啟用。這類型的國際科學合作不僅將造福於人類，而且還提供訓練給肺癌及上呼吸道腫瘤醫學和轉化性癌症研究人員。

The number of people diagnosed with thoracic cancer has been increasing in recent years and its mortality rate is the highest in the United States and in Taiwan. In 2019, the United States and Taiwan signed an agreement to collaborate on thoracic cancer research and establish the Stephen J. Solarz International Research Laboratory in Taiwan. This international standard laboratory will conduct research to characterize distinct features that cause thoracic cancers in Asian versus Caucasian patients and accelerate the development of novel methods to diagnose, treat, and prevent thoracic malignancies that collectively account for two million deaths a year worldwide. Clinical trials will begin simultaneously at the U.S. National Institute of Health Clinical Center, the largest hospital in the world dedicated solely to medical research, and Taipei Veterans General Hospital (TVGH), one of the largest and most prestigious hospitals in Asia, in the near future. On Friday, AIT Economic Officer Neevy Laningham participated virtually in a ceremony to launch the Stephen J. Solarz International Research Laboratory, located in TVGH. This U.S.-Taiwan collaboration will not only benefit patients but will also provide training to future researchers in thoracic oncology and translational cancer.

Greater Grace is Coming!

““For truly, in this city against your holy servant, Jesus, whom you anointed, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel, were gathered together to do whatever your hand and your council foreordained to happen. Now, Lord, look at their threats, and grant to your servants to speak your word with all boldness, while you stretch out your hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done through the name of your holy Servant Jesus.” When they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were gathered together. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the word of God with boldness. The multitude of those who believed were of one heart and soul. Not one of them claimed that anything of the things which he possessed was his own, but they had all things in common. With great power, the apostles gave their testimony of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. Great grace was on them all. For neither was there among them any who lacked, for as many as were owners of lands or houses sold them, and brought the proceeds of the things that were sold, and laid them at the apostles’ feet, and distribution was made to each, according as anyone had need.” (Acts‬ ‭4:27-35‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

In a post from months ago, I had shared that Pharaoh’s dream of the seven fat cows and seven skinny cows have an end-time prophetic meaning of seven years of plenty before the Rapture and seven years of severe famine during the seven years of Tribulation.

“Joseph said to Pharaoh, “The dream of Pharaoh is one. What God is about to do he has declared to Pharaoh. The seven good cattle are seven years; and the seven good heads of grain are seven years. The dream is one. The seven thin and ugly cattle that came up after them are seven years, and also the seven empty heads of grain blasted with the east wind; they will be seven years of famine. That is the thing which I spoke to Pharaoh. What God is about to do he has shown to Pharaoh. Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt. There will arise after them seven years of famine, and all the plenty will be forgotten in the land of Egypt. The famine will consume the land, and the plenty will not be known in the land by reason of that famine which follows; for it will be very grievous. The dream was doubled to Pharaoh, because the thing is established by God, and God will shortly bring it to pass.” (Genesis‬ ‭41:25-32‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

I believe we are in/entering that season of seven plentiful years.

In the seven plentiful years, we are going to see things like the early church experienced, but at a much greater magnitude. It is the Lord’s final harvest of souls before the Rapture.

We will see:

- Bold believers rise up to win souls and amazing miracles happening when they preach the Gospel.

- The world shaken by the Holy Spirit and a huge outpouring of the Spirit upon all flesh. Even unbelievers will receive dreams and visions from God and experience His power.

- A new level of unity and love among the body of Christ.

- A prosperous church that shares her wealth with those in need; the wealth of the nations will be transferred to believers.

We are not going to leave this world as a bruised, battered, cowering church. We will be prospering in all things together and prepared as a radiant bride for the Lord. This is the effect of us collectively receiving more revelation about the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

“But the path of the righteous is like the dawning light, that shines more and more until the perfect day.” (Proverbs‬ ‭4:18‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

The path of the righteous (believers) will shine more and more until the perfect day.

“For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet. The last enemy that will be abolished is death. For this perishable body must become imperishable, and this mortal must put on immortality. But when this perishable body will have become imperishable, and this mortal will have put on immortality, then what is written will happen: “Death is swallowed up in victory.” “Death, where is your sting? Hades, where is your victory?”” (1 Corinthians‬ ‭15:25-26, 53-55‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

The last enemy that will be put under Jesus’ feet and abolished is death. This means that before the Rapture, all other enemies would be under the feet of the body of Christ. This includes sickness, aging, weakness, poverty, broken relationships, and all types of bondages that have plagued the church throughout history.

We would be so full of life that the only thing remaining is to be clothed with our glorified body and meet Jesus in the air.

Are you excited about the seven years of plenty? If the early church experienced great grace, the end-time church before the Rapture will experience greater grace! Don’t just be a spectator—ask Him to let you participate in a significant way, to bringing about good change for His kingdom!

One revelation that the body of Christ will grow in is this: receiving supernatural youth renewal to live young, healthy, strong, and beautiful like Jesus. I believe that “Younger and Younger” (the eBook and audio) are being used to enlighten believers about this part of our inheritance that is often neglected. Join me on a 31-day youth renewal journey to meet a new you—it is a transformation that everyone can see:

“Cantonese Music Lab," Episode 1
A New Generation Discusses Cantonese Music: "Yu Le Shengping" (First Part)

The "Cantonese Music Lab" is a performance-based research project aimed at exploring different forms of music and genres that are collectively referred to as "Guangdong yinyue" (廣東音樂) or "Yue yue" (粵樂) in Hong Kong. After having learned the playing techniques from their teachers and predecessors, if young people are able to understand the historical reasons and aesthetic operations, they may be able to deduce the style that belongs to this era and place. In this project, young artists TroVessional Five-people Cantonese Band will be invited to jointly study several different styles of "Cantonese music" and produce a series of documentaries.

=============================================
無論男女老幼 黑白胖瘦
地球子民 有你也有我

金曲歌王 方大同的終極理想
2020 最新單曲〈TWIOCAMIC〉
一個全人類攜手的世界大同

繼 2014 年的〈Peace〉之後，金曲歌王方大同生涯二度獻上全英文饒舌作品，為全人類的命運做出堅定呼籲。歌名〈TWIOCAMIC〉，原意為「世界僅一國，萬眾皆其民」（The world is one country, and mankind its citizens），是方大同長期信仰的巴哈伊教中心思想。從小時候起，方大同所受的教育讓他認知到自己生活在一個地球村。無論去到何處、認識什麼樣的人，他總是會在彼此身上發現許多共同點，也看到彼此的不同可以互補而完美。另一方面，全世界似乎都有相同的問題，暴力與仇恨不斷重演，偏見割裂了愛和信任。方大同認為這些難關，正是時代給予人類蛻變的契機。

在 2020 年，方大同終於將多年來腦海中一直醞釀著的概念付諸實現，完成了這首〈TWIOCAMIC〉。卸下華麗甜美的旋律和弦，在簡約行軍節拍中以認真口吻娓娓道來，點出「每個人皆獨特，但生而平等」的全曲核心。只要懷抱愛與耐心，人類必能團結合作，邁向真正的世界大同。如同在單曲封面上，象徵不同膚色的大大小小石頭，透過代表下一代的小朋友眼睛看去，是充滿無限希望的美好未來。

"One planet, one people, for true justice”:
Soulful Singer-Songwriter KHALIL FONG Drops Poignant New Hip-Hop Single ‘TWIOCAMIC’ on 7th August 2020

With more than 40 million music streams online, best known for his soulful lyrics and smooth R&B vocals, Chinese-American singer-songwriter Khalil Fong is using his gift to spread a message of unity and progression in his new hip-hop single, ‘TWIOCAMIC’.

“I’ve always identified as a world citizen which lets me see the similarities in all peoples and cultures. I believe the future depends on our children’s ability to see the past, present and future in a new light.” – KHALIL FONG

Produced at Fong’s home in quarantine, ‘TWIOCAMIC’, which stands for ‘The World Is One Country And Mankind Its Citizens’, sees the R&B artist rap philosophically about finding unity in diversity and achieving harmony amongst the human race. Addressing the moral concepts of ‘good’ and ‘bad’, Fong’s lyrics tackle the idea that until people start recognising their collective roles, we’ll continue repeating common historical mistakes:

“I’ve wanted to sing about these concepts for the past five years, but only recently did I have the full inspiration and motivation to complete the idea. The entire world is filled with conflicts and hatred, misunderstandings and lack of empathy. Humanity is facing great social struggles and environmental disasters. Unless we unite in an attitude of fellowship to collectively question things, it will be a challenge to find solutions in time.” – KHALIL FONG

Prey พากย์ไทย แปลไทย เนื้อเรื่อง

Prey is a first-person shooter video game developed by Arkane Studios and published by Bethesda Softworks. The game was released worldwide on 5 May 2017, for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

In Prey, the player controls Morgan Yu while exploring the space station Talos I, in orbit around Earth–Moon L2, where they had been researching a hostile alien species called the Typhon. As the Typhon escape confinement, the player uses a variety of weapons and abilities derived from the Typhon to avoid being killed by the aliens while looking to escape the station. The player gains access to areas of the station by acquiring key items and abilities, eventually allowing the player to fully explore the station in an open world setting.

Arkane's Prey is largely unrelated to the 2006 game Prey developed by Human Head Studios, and is considered a reimagining of the intellectual property set in a wholly new narrative. While Prey 2, a sequel to the 2006 game, had been planned by Human Head, it fell into development hell following transfer of the intellectual property from 3D Realms to Bethesda Softworks, and was eventually cancelled in 2014. Arkane's game does not use any of the planned sequel's assets, and only incorporates the previous game's name and the broad theme of the protagonist being hunted by aliens. Arkane built Prey as a spiritual sequel to System Shock, providing the player with several potential means of progressing within the game.


Prey is a survival horror first-person shooter with role-playing and stealth elements set in an open world environment. The player takes the role of Morgan Yu, a human aboard a space station with numerous species of hostile aliens known collectively as the Typhon. The player is able to select certain attributes of Morgan, including gender, and decisions made by the player that affects elements of the game's story. To survive, the player must collect and use weapons and resources aboard the station to fend off and defeat the Typhon. According to creative director Raphaël Colantonio, the station is completely continuous rather than having separate levels or missions, at times requiring the player to return to areas they previously explored. The player is also able to venture outside of the station in space and find shortcuts connecting parts of the station. Colantonio also stated that the aliens have an array of different powers that the player character can gain over time; one such alien has the ability to shape shift into everyday items, such as a chair.

The game has multiple endings, according to lead designer Ricardo Bare; the endings fall into three major narrative structures depending on how the player broadly interacted with the station and surviving humans, but Bare said there are "tons of little permutations" based on specific events.
