Recurring typo: George Johnson explores the myths and medicine behind cancer
Source: The Santa Fe New MexicanOct.迷利倉 04--Science writer George Johnson's The Cancer Chronicles is a sort of spoiler to the story of our lives. "There's always going to be multicelled creatures like us in a world ruled by entropy, a world that's imperfect," Johnson told Pasatiempo. "Entropy is the only constant. Every time one of your cells divides into two daughter cells, all of the DNA, all of the genome, has to be copied. There's always a chance for a mistake." That mistake, multiplied, can lead to cancer, an affliction that predates man. Even dinosaurs, as Johnson discovered, suffered from it. And it's not going away any time soon. You can do everything right -- eat your vegetables, not smoke, wear sunscreen -- and a stray cosmic ray might trigger a mutation. In fact, you're sure to get it if you live long enough and something else doesn't get you first.Cancer, whose causes are often associated with modern life and its pesticides, pollutants, and other man-made substances, not to mention radiation, has baffled medical scholars since the time of Hippocrates. Scientists called paleo-oncologists have not found compelling evidence that the core rate of cancer in the population today is significantly higher than it was in ancient Greece or Egypt, even given the fact that we live longer and there are more of us. Today, 77 percent of cancer is diagnosed in people 55 or older. Johnson points out another tendency that has held fast through the centuries: the disease's insidious persistence. The medieval surgeon Abu al-Qasim al-Zahrawi wrote, "When a cancer has lasted long and is large, you should not come near it. I have never been able to save any case of this kind, nor have I seen anyone else who has been successful.""You'd like to write this inspiring book," Johnson said of his work, "saying that the cure is around the corner, and you just need to do this and that and you can really improve your odds of avoiding cancer. But there's just nothing really that clear-cut you can say. What I hoped for the book was that, even though you were not going to learn how to avoid cancer, that you'd basically learn that a certain amount of cancer is going to be inevitable due to the nature of the imperfect world we live in."With this sort of hopelessness and frustration at its core, why is Johnson's book on this frightening and challenging subject so engaging? (In his New York Times review of the book, David Quammen described it as "exhilaratingly gloomy.") Part of the answer has to do with accompanying the writer in his research. Johnson, who says he started out with no background in science, is a former science writer for the Times and the author of several books on physical science and intelligence. He's a sort of Everyman, leading us through his discoveries, and the process he goes through in the discovering, in a way that involves readers in the quest. Part of it has to do with Johnson's personal tie-in to the story as he follows his wife at the time, Nancy, through the discovery and treatment of a metastatic cancer that changed her life. This was a different direction for Johnson, who admitted that in his previous books he liked to keep the first-person voice "pretty subdued.""But using Nancy's story," he explained, "was the only way I could organize the material, because it's such an overwhelmingly vast topic. You couldn't write everything there is to say about cancer, even at the most superficial level. So I did it as kind of a personal exploration, trying to see how much I as an outsider in the field could learn, to see if I could get the big picture. I wanted to write something for someone like me who found the subject both fascinating and scary and wasn't a scientist."Born in Arkansas and raised in Albuquerque, Johnson has two notable skills: the ability to comprehend complex subjects and a talent for writing about them in clear, understandable, enjoyable prose. The first skill he developed in his teens. He was an aspiring rock musician and wanted to understand how his bass guitar amplifier worked. "I remember with some precision when I began believing that there is nothing so complex that a reasonably intelligent person cannot comprehend it," he writes in the preface to A Shortcut Through Time: The Path to the Quantum Computer. "At first the detail and complexity of [the amplifier's] schematic ... were overwhelming. ... The trick was to break down the diagram into pieces, master each one, and then put them back together again." This approach has served him well when writing his books, which include Strange Beauty: Murray Gell-Mann and the Revolution in Twentieth-Century Physics and The Ten Most Beautiful Experiments, a sort of hands-on history of science that earned him an appeara自存倉ce on The Colbert Report.He has a degree in journalism from the University of New Mexico and spent time first as a copy editor and then as a police-beat reporter for the Albuquerque Journal (there was no CSI-style science involved, he said). After earning a master's degree in journalism and public affairs in 1979 from American University in Washington, D.C., he was hired as a special features writer for the Minneapolis Star. It was there that he first began writing seriously about science. He took a job as a staff editor at The New York Times in 1986 after spending a couple of years writing his first two books: Architects of Fear: Conspiracy Theories and Paranoia in American Politics and Machinery of the Mind: Inside the New Science of Artificial Intelligence. He moved to Santa Fe from New York in 1994.A major influence on his craft came from Albert Einstein. In an essay written for My Einstein: Essays by Twenty-Four of the World's Leading Thinkers on the Man, His Work, and His Legacy (published in 2006), Johnson explains how the introduction that Einstein wrote for science writer Lincoln Barnett's book The Universe and Dr. Einstein defines the problems faced by someone writing about science for the nonscientist: the writer either deals in the superficial and creates only the illusion of comprehension, or the writer gives an expert account of the subject that's completely opaque to the untrained reader. "When I first read that, I never had any thought about being a science writer," Johnson said. "But then, rereading it years later, Einstein himself was talking about communicating science with words rather than numbers and using metaphors so it could be understood."Johnson's central analogy in The Cancer Chronicles is that of the typo. All that it takes to create a genetic mutation when DNA information is transferred is, as Johnson writes, "a random typo in a message hundreds of letters long." This mistake analogy is key to understanding the different kinds of genes -- ras, src, fes, and others -- whose purpose is to control how healthy cells divide, in the process called mitosis. In other words, understanding how cancer grows isn't as simple as discovering a single or even multiple causes or how it spreads, which means finding a way to stop or prevent it isn't simple either.The book is full of other rude awakenings. While smoking and long exposure to ultraviolet light definitely increase your cancer risk, other commonly held causes and preventative measures really have little statistical effect. "But there are good reasons to eat your vegetables other than preventing cancer," Johnson is quick to point out. Also incremental are the much touted advances in cancer treatment. Even as he cited advances in targeted treatments, Johnson said, "Progress had been agonizingly slow. I describe the treatment my wife had to endure (beginning in 2003) that was very brutal: surgery followed by chemo followed by radiation. Somebody who was diagnosed with that same cancer today, there really isn't anything different that they'd be able to do. You'd go through this same brutal treatment that makes you extremely sick and can have lifelong side effects, and still, very often, it doesn't work."At a recent book signing, readers came up to Johnson, anxious to share their experiences. "People are scared; they're frustrated. Sometimes they ask for advice, which I certainly can't give. I can just tell them what I've learned. The one thing Nancy and I really learned is just how important it is to find the best oncologist and the best oncological surgeon you can." He's not surprised at the people who think there's an effort to conceal a cancer breakthrough. "People think surely this would have been cured by now if there wasn't some kind of conspiracy to not find a cure for their own evil reasons, so they can make money. That, of course, is absurd and insulting when you see the dedicated people who work in the medical profession. And yet again, you can't deny the huge built-in profit system. Treating cancer makes lots and lots of money for the people who are expert at it. To me, that's just the way the world works; things are motivated by money, and you hope that the motivation will also lead to better treatments and more knowledge of how to prevent cancer in the first place. But again, you're only going to be able to improve the situation. You're never going to really make it go away.""The Cancer Chronicles: Unlocking Medicine's Deepest Mystery" by George Johnson was published in August by Alfred A.

三強跨界結盟 引領智慧生活先驅 住宅品質創業界標竿
【廣編特輯】 台灣建築界又再度引爆新話題!當建築界龍頭「遠雄企業團」、電信龍頭「中華電信」及家電龍頭「Panasonic」三大廠商跨界合作,文件倉會擦出什麼樣的火花?三大廠商經過多年來的研擬及規劃,不但策略結盟創造國內居家新價值,並且持續提供住戶更智慧多元的生活環境,將最高端的科技技術帶進居家生活中,讓國內智慧生活相關領域產業與世界接軌! 遠雄X中華電信XPanasonic 跨界整合典範 近年遠雄企業團的經營策略就是成立「跨界整合平台」,積極與國內外78家產官學研菁英單位進行合作,包括中華電信、Panasonic等知名品牌交流,將多方資源進行全方位整合,首創三能一雲數位二代宅,成功將綠能、智能、性能與雲端科技整合到遠雄建築中,讓民眾真正感受到房屋所賦予的差異化價值,將台灣建築帶入全新格局! 遠雄首創數位16部曲 打造0~100歲全齡住宅 遠雄企業團重要策略夥伴之一的電信龍頭「中華電信」,自2005年雙方開始跨界合作,領先業界開創「二代宅」,從跨時代的數位家庭首部曲發展至十六部曲,從無線寬頻、遠端監控、數位學習、FTTH光纖到家、指靜脈辨識、遠距照護、手機門禁、數位服務平台、二代網路IPv6、ETC輕鬆到家、太陽能公車亭、環境感知、家庭能源管理、智慧城市、智慧雲端及社區智慧電動車充電系統等。結合數位科技與智慧節能,將一步步引領台灣建築規劃趨勢,從生態、節能、環保等面向全盤考量,持續為台灣建築導入更多先進智慧的建築規劃與理念。 除了強調數位科技導入建案中,遠雄企業團另一個策略合作夥伴Panasonic,以環保節能為趨勢發展,無論是設計、材料、生產、運輸、販售及回收等環節,都以減少碳足跡、健康生活為導向,用實際行動支持環保新顯學。值得一提的是,Panasonic從客餐廳、臥房、廚房、衛浴等空間相關產品設備導入在遠雄建案中,以環保及通用兩大核心為概念研發,且自許2018年要做到CO2零排放的綠色生活。 中華電信 領航數位匯流 中華電信董事長李炎松表示,中華電信身為電信業龍頭,不斷研發創新技術,但是,科技始終來自於人性,只有能夠真正落實在服務上才是有價值的。提到與遠雄跨界合作的初衷,李炎松說,遠雄企業團董事長趙藤雄在規畫建築的過程中,一直是站在客戶的使用角度思考,希望設計的房子有別於其他建築,所以尋求科技來實現想法。在這樣的思維下,便開啟了中華電信與遠雄的跨界合作,雙方以提升客戶生活品質為前題,將人性科技導入住宅興建,攜手打造一個兼具科技與人文的數位智慧生活。 在中華電信與遠雄企業團跨界合作的項目中,主要可分概為四大類,一、以建構數位家庭為核心觀念的「智慧建築」;二、是針對企業廠辦發展的「智慧園區」,如台灣存倉一雲端總部「汐止遠雄U-TOWN智慧廠辦園區」,透過中央監控、FTTO等雲端技術,整合資訊系統、弱電系統及雲端服務應用,打造出台灣第一的智慧雲端廠辦示範園區;三、塑造全智慧城市社區的「智慧社區」,如中和遠雄左岸;四、範圍涵跨飯店、百貨、商辦、娛樂等的「遠雄巨蛋」。 如何將科技融入生活之中,才能夠讓居家生活更加舒適與便利?從民國94年開始啟動至今的「遠雄數位16部曲」可說是最佳代表,但這16部曲並非一次定案完成,而是在不斷研發過程中,導入新的科技技術,透過雙方持續緊密合作,提供光纖到府、NFC技術、智慧家庭平台等科技設備,串連起一個完整的家庭網路平台,滿足住戶對科技的需求與更高的生活品質,並建構起基礎的數位智慧環境,從而提升城市競爭力。 Panasonic品牌結盟 要生活更好也要世界更好 2018年,就是Panasonic創立一百週年。在創建之初,松下電器的創辦人,有經營之神稱號的松下幸之助就曾表示「讓我們致力於生產…建立一個沒有窮困的樂土,這就是松下電器的使命」。而現在的Panasonic不再只著眼藉由生產電器商品讓生活便利的企業,在迎接創立一百週年的同時,提出了「A Better Life, A Better World」成為全球指標。林聰智特別強調,標語願景雖然遠大,但其實要更著眼在消費者的生活上,因為唯有讓消費者生活上更便利舒適,才能改善生存環境,進而讓全世界更美好。因此,不論是生活娛樂、住宅、旅行、商業、甚至是整個社會,各種空間或領域,Panasonic都要努力為消費者帶來舒適。這樣一來,生活愉快幸福,生命更美好,地球更能永續。這就是「A Better Life, A Better World」真正的內在意涵。 家電就是放在家裡讓大家使用,「有了像Panasonic這樣優質的家電商品,如果沒有一個好的居住住宅,就樣一個人內在很健康,而外在骨架卻很脆弱一樣,仍是不堪一擊…」,林聰智傳神的比喻。因此台灣第一的家電品牌Panasonic,選擇與台灣第一的建築營造品牌遠雄企業合作,就是為了提供大家一個從居家到環境都優質的生活空間。 林聰智特別舉出遠雄企業團董事長趙藤雄的名言:「要做就做最好的,最好的我推…」,就是這樣的理念,Panasonic提供遠雄最有智慧的ECO NAVI節能家電、搭載nanoe淨化科技讓生活更舒適的空調商品、能提供健康鹼性水的整水器商品…等。從廚房、客廳到臥房…都能擁有最便利舒適的生活空間,打造最頂級的生活享受。 「A Better Life, A Better World」只是一個起點。從Panasonic與遠雄兩大企業的攜手合作,我們知道這美好生活即將實現,而更美好的世界願景,就在眼前。儲存

Brokers' Take
Singapore ExchangeBuyPhillip Securities Research | Oct 4 |Oct 4 close: $7.迷利倉24SGX Ltd will be announcing its Q1 2014 results on Oct 17. Based on monthly statistics recently released by SGX, 1Q14's SDAV (securities daily average value) decreased (17.5 per cent) q-q, (1.8 per cent) y-y to $1.329 billion. DDAV (derivatives daily average volume) was (19.4 per cent) weaker q-q, but 35.4 per cent y-y to 0.415 million contracts.Due to economic concerns during the quarter, q-q trading activities for both securities and derivatives were weaker than expected. On a y-y basis, Q1 2014's revenue is expected to be higher. Securities revenue is expected to be higher due to higher expected yield per dollar traded, mitigating the marginally lower SDAV. Derivatives revenue is also expected to be higher due to the y-y higher DDAV.On a q-q basis, we expect lower revenue due to the lower trading activities for both securities and derivatives. On outlook, we continue to be positive for securities and derivatives. Markets are likely to be quieter relative to the earlier part of this year on concerns over both the pace of recovery of the global economy, and assessments over QE tapering by the US Fed.We are positive on SGX on:Higher securities revenue forecast;Strong derivatives revenue;Attractive dividends, with potential for increase.We adjust our forecast to reflect the lower SDAV and DDAV revenue expectations, but continued positive FY14 outlook. Based on our unchanged PE multiple of 24 times, and lowered EPS of $0.33, we derive a revised target price of $7.90. Based on current share price, we maintain our "buy" rating.Regional oil and gas servicesOverweightDMG & Partners | Oct 4 |FROM our observations, the development of Indonesia's oil & gas (O&G) services sector is very similar to that of Malaysia back in 2004/2005. Asset localisation, thanks to the cabotage ruling, will drive a re-rating phase, as earnings visibility rises and asset owners move up the value chain to AHTS/PSVs and eventually rigs from tugs/barges. On this theme, we think investors should buy Wintermar Offshore Marine (TP: 640 rupiah) and Marco Polo Marine (TP: $0.61).In Malaysia, Petronas drives the O&G sector, acting as a regulator and自存倉also as a national oil company (NOC). In Indonesia, SKK Migas is the regulator and Pertamina is the NOC. However, unlike in Malaysia, where Petronas specifies a preference for locally-owned assets and local vendors for the O&G industry, Indonesia has the cabotage ruling, which states that only Indonesian-flagged vessels can ply point-to-point within the country's waters. While exemptions were made for the offshore O&G sector, this will lapse between 2013 and 2015, and we see this ruling having a similar impact as seen in Malaysia - promoting local asset ownership and creating room for reinvestment for local companies. We believe the tightening cabotage will raise long-term earnings visibility for the Indonesian players. Our observation on the O&G sector re-rating in Malaysia since 2005 suggests that Indonesian stocks could go on a similar re-rating path. The aggregate P/E valuation for Malaysian O&G companies was only 8.7 times at end-2005, but has averaged more than 20 times in the past three years.Telco sectorNeutralOCBC Investment Research | Oct 4 |IN a report recently, the Media Development Authority (MDA) explained that it forced SingTel to share its Barclays Premier League (BPL) content as the telco had made it "commercially unviable" for StarHub to separately purchase the rights. The cross-carriage ruling resulted in the two telcos offering hefty "subsidies" to either lure subscribers to switch or retain subscribers.But we do not expect the migration of pay TV customers from SingTel to StarHub to be significant, given that it may still be cheaper for existing subscribers to watch BPL on the mioTV platform. We have a "neutral" rating on the sector, with a "hold" on SingTel ($3.81 FV) and "sell" on StarHub ($3.82 FV).

He cancelled visits to Malaysia and the Philippines earlier this week because of his budget struggle with the US Congress and said late on Thursday that he would not attend the regional summits in Indonesia and Brunei.The scrapping of the trip because of the partial government shutdown in the US now puts the spotlight on President Xi Jinping and Premier Li Keqiang at the Asia Pacific Economic Co-operation (Apec) Forum on Monday and the East Asia Summit on Wednesday.Analysts say the cancellation of his trip also damages Obama’s strategic “rebalancing” in Asia, which seeks to re-engage with Asia in order to maintain US presence and interests in a region where China’s clout is growing rapidly. Beijing, however, saw the renewed US interest as a form of containment.Ian Storey, a senior fellow with the Institute of Southeast Asian Studies in Singapore, said the cancellation would project the image of the US in the region as “politically dysfunctional” and “on the brink of economic crisis”.“China, on the other hand, is looking prosperous and self-confident. Xi Jinself storageing will have the floor at Apec, and so will Li at the East Asia Summit,” said Storey.With the economy growing, China is now seeking to regain trust – eroded by recent tensions over maritime territorial disputes – from the region with trade and investment incentives.Obama’s absence would not only send “all the wrong signals” to the region but will also help raise the profiles of Xi and Li in the two major diplomatic events, analysts said.Tao Wenzhao, from the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, said Obama’s repeated cancellation of Asia trips would raise the question of whether US was able to commit to the region.“Countries in the region, especially US allies like Japan, might want to rethink whether they could really rely on the US,” Tao said.Obama has appointed Secretary of State John Kerry to fill in for him at the summits.The White House blamed the Republicans as it announced it was scrapping the trip to tackle the stand-off over the US budget, which has shut down non-essential government services.“The cancellation of this trip is another consequence of the House Republicans forcing a shutdown of the government. This completely avoidable shutdown is setting back our ability to create jobs through promotion of US exports and advance US leadership and interests in the largest emerging region in the world,” its statement said.China, Malaysia deals A3Fiscal deadline A12Heng’s view A14, Insight A15mini storage

A slice of paradise lures tourists
By WANG QIAN and HUANG YIMING in Sansha, HainanCould Sansha become China’s Maldives?According to tourism experts and businessmen the answer is: yes, as long as the city continues to open its doors and boost infrastructure construction.self storageNo civilian planes are yet permitted to fly to Sansha. However, ferry services are already seeing a boom in business.The Coconut Princess cruise ship, which made its maiden voyage in April, takes visitors to Yongxing Island twice a month, weather permitting.So far, it has made 16 trips, ferrying almost 40,000 people and 7,000 metric tons of goods.The only other vessel transporting tourists to Sansha is the Qiongsha No 3, a supply ship, which has docked at the islands 70 times.“We’ve just finished a plan for transportation between islands, and we are hoping to get approval soon,” Sansha Mayor Xiao Jie said.Mo Qun will be hoping that the improved transportation will eventually open the door to air travel.The general manager of Meiya Air, which in May became the first to be licensed by the Civil Aviation Administration of China to operate amphibious services, hailed the cruise service as “marking a new chapter for i迷利倉land travel for China”.Despite still awaiting approval, his company has bought five amphibious aircraft for island-to-island trips in Sansha to cater to high-end tourism.Compared with an 18-hour cruise on the Coconut Princess, a 70-minute flight would attract more people to the islands, Mo said.Fishermen are just looking forward to more tourists, regardless of how they get there.Li Qiansan, 53, said he expects his annual income to double as the island opens to the Chinese mainland.However, Xiao said tourism development also needs to be sustainable and he urged the central government to establish an underwater heritage protection zone to protect relics along the ancient marine silk route.The ancient marine silk road in South China Sea is a historical network of interlinking trade routes between China and the West, including shipwrecks carrying exported porcelain, and settlements established by Chinese inhabitants as early as 1,000 years ago.“These heritage sites are important proof of Chinese ancestors’ early development of the South China Sea,” Xiao said. “Protecting them is significant for our studies on history and the development of tourism.”自存倉
