LIFESTYLE STYLE UPDATE WORKSHOP Wendy Tan Sally Tang from Divine Image International conducted a Style Update workshop for our ladies on 21 March 2010. Sally brought along pieces of fabric to demonstrate the art of colour coordination. The ladies were treated to a visual display of colours ranging from cool to warm, muted to bright. The ladies were also taught on the importance of accessories matching, recognising the different body shapes and applying this knowledge to clothing selection. The session ended with Sally showing them samples of blouses and answering their queries. It was a very interesting session indeed! RETURN OF THE PASTA LOVERS’ WORKSHOP Daphne Phoa Chef Roy who was the head chef of Delifrance conducted the workshop on 4 April 2010. Despite it being a long weekend, we had a good response of 17 participants. Chef Roy demonstrated a mouthwatering menu of Baked Macaroni with Seafood and Creamy Sauce, Penne Pasta Vongole, Baked Rice Aglio Olio with Chicken and Turkey Bacon and last but not least, Spaghetti Pasta Puttanesca. The class was very attentive and made additional notes throughout the session on the preparation process provided thoughtfully by Chef Roy. Several questions were asked and tips were given. Everyone had a wonderful time tasting the delicious dishes by Chef Roy and couldn’t wait for the next workshop! 14
GO GREEN CARE FOR OUR EARTH The Bleak Future of Endangered Species Endangerment is a becoming issue throughout the world. Although some measures are being taken to help specific cases of endangerment, the universal problem cannot be solved until humans protect the natural environments where endangered species dwell. Habitat destruction and overexploitation are often the primary causes for endangered species. Our planet is continually changing, causing habitats to be altered and modified. When changes occur at a fast pace, there is little or no time for individual species to react and adjust to new circumstances. This can create disastrous results. It may take centuries to re-grow a forest that was cut down by humans or destroyed by fire, and many of the world’s severely threatened animals and plants live in these forests. If the current rate of forest loss continues, huge quantities of plant and animal species will disappear. Due to the trade in animal parts, many species continue to suffer high rates of exploitation. Unrestricted whaling during the 20th century is an example of overexploitation, and the whaling industry brought many species of whales to extremely low population sizes. Among other factors are disease, pollution, and limited distribution (a consequence of other threats) that threaten various plant and animal species. Often, human activities lie at the root of most causes of endangerment. Why Save Endangered Species? Plants and animals hold medicinal, agricultural, ecological, commercial and aesthetic/recreational value. Endangered species must be protected and saved so that future generations can experience their presence and value. Protect Endangered Species For Our Next Generation Every one of us is part of this world, if we start doing something today, it will all add up! Here are some things you can do: 1. Do not pour paint or chemicals into the ground or into the gutter. If you do, it will get into the water we drink, and into the lakes and oceans where it may harm the animals that live in the water and on the shore. 2. Make a compost heap and let worms eat your garbage! Use it to feed your plants instead of chemical fertilizers. 3. Reduce, reuse and recycle! Try to reduce the amount of garbage you throw away. Recycle paper, cardboard, cans, bottles and plastic. Buy things that don’t come packed in lots of cardboard and plastic; buy bigger quantities – it is cheaper and there’s less packaging. Identify The Endangered Species Out of the 15 species listed below, 12 are in immediate danger of becoming extinct. Identify them. Answers will be published in the next issue.
