Paper leprechaun hats. Plastic cups strewn everywhere. St Patrick's Day can be wasteful indeed, but that doesn't mean your celebration of it has to be. For Irish-Americans, here are five things that are green - in more way than one - for St. Patrick's Day. 2.Food. Many will indulge in some delicious corned beef, but that's not the only food that Ireland is known for. Try some Irish soda bread , or a veggie stew . Don't forget potatoes - traditional, with the added benefit of a tiny carbon footprint. How about some colcannon ? 3. Transit. If you're celebrating tonight, leave the car at home.

2009.3.7 Because my conversation partner Bates Whitney is sick today, so I sit in the cafeteria and chat with other students. But one Chinese man came and continue to talked about politic stuff, he made me so uncomfortable, therefore I decided to go to Brooklyn museum with Yuki Hiraoka. Taiwanese and Japanese have many things in common; I like Japanese people more than Chinese. One of my Japanese classmates told me that I should introduce Taiwan to let other students know more about Taiwan, and this is America, no one can deny Taiwan, even people from Tibet said Tibet is a country. It is my first time to Brooklyn, before, I think it is not safe to come, but I find the Brooklyn museum is so bright and organize. Today is the First Saturday in March, so many free programs supported by Target (department store). http://www.brooklynmuseum.org/visit/first_saturdays.php I enjoy the exhibition tour of ancient Egypt and the storytelling time. http://www.brooklynmuseum.org/exhibitions/coptic/ ...

We prayed in the 46 st. and Broadway, which is the center of Manhattan; Manhattan is the center of NY, NY is the ceter of America, and the USA is the center of the whole world now. I am so shocked to see so many people gather on street to pray and praise to God; because it is so hard to see this kind of ourdoor event in Taiwan. People from different countries, different regions came here only for praying to God together. We pray to Lord to forgive our sins and pray for the nation and the youth; I feel this country is full of hope and blessing, because from the president, the mayor to the ordinary people, they pray! Most people know God and have the chance to go to church and learn about the Bible, it makes difference!
