CHINESE CUISINE

BY ZHEN CAI

Many Chinese enjoy spicy food, even believing that hot peppers are good for their health, and more important for them is to have a bowl of rice to start. ”

SichuanƔ Ɣ Ɣ

Sichuan provides the spiciest cuisine in all of China; the whole

country raves about the spicy dishes from Sichuan. Unlike other Chinese provinces which specialize in spicy food, Sichuan is known for making its food with 㣧Ὀ(Hua Jiao). Hua Jiao is a local Sichuan pepper which has a numbing e!ect on both your tongue and mouth.

HunanƔ Ɣ Ɣ

A"er Sichuan, no prov-ince in China is more famous for its spicy

food than Hunan. Nation-ally beloved for its cuisine, Hunan is known for dishes which combine vegetable oils with marinated red peppers. Everything from vermicelli soup to stir-#red dishes are prepared with peppers dipped into oil.

As sea ice disappears, a refuge of suitable habitat for polar bears and ringed seals – key polar bear prey – may persist in northeastern Canada and northern Greenland.

The refuge will be supplied by ice from through-out the Arctic – a far more diverse source than this region experienced in the past.

A more interconnected Arctic means that pollut-DQWV�DQG�QXWULHQWV�IURP�RWKHU�UHJLRQV�FRXOG�DͿHFW�the refuge.

DAYLIGHT DOESN’T MATTER:Native trees need coldClimate change may give an advantage to invaders from the south. Since the new-comers get an early start in the spring, they have more time to overgrow native trees. However, nature could take revenge on these southern species.

SEA ANEMONE IS BOTH ANIMAL AND PLANTƔ ANIMAL

Sea anemones are classified as being animals, but two new genetic studies have

found that these water-dwelling creatures are technically half plant and half animal.

The discovery does not change the classification of sea anemones, but the studies – both published in the latest issue of the journal Genome Research – reveal just how interconnected life on Earth is.

“All animals living now, including humans, are equally distant (i.e. distantly related) to plants,” project leader Ulrich Technau told Discovery News. “However, the sea anemones

are representatives of an animal lineage called the cnidarians (corals, sea anemones, jellyfish and hydras), which branched off very early and appear to have retained many ancestral traits.”Stunning Ocean Animal Photos

Technau, an evolutionary and developmental biologist at the University of Vienna, and his teams determined that, remark-ably, cnidarians use a plant-like system to control animal genes.

For the studies, the research-ers focused on gene expression, which is the process by which information from a gene is used in the synthesis of a functional

Scattered around the yard is the training gear – the various poles, posts, and bars – that aerialists use to hone their skills and develop new stunts. The object that captivates the kid is a cable some twen-W\��IRXU�LQFKHV�RͿ�WKH�ground strung between WZR�VWDQGV��7KH�NLG�LV�À�xated on the cable. The kid is barely two years old. The kid is me.

My earliest and stron-gest memory is stepping out on the wire with the absolute conviction that I would walk across it. I have already seen my parents walk the high wire, an act that seems both wonderful and natu-ral. Naturally I’m moved to do the same.

I take a couple of steps, and then fall. I get back on, only to fall again.

I keep getting on and keep falling, getting on and falling until in a short while I’m able to walk the entire length of the wire. The accomplishment does not feel remarkable. I don’t feel that I’ve had done anything extraordi-nary. It simply feels right.

young graduates and professionals.

The Logo reflects the first letter of Lanisng “L” combined with a star means the capital. We choosed the slogen of “start at the capital”

We have also created a website with the purpose of helping these young graduates and professionals to find job around Lansing area more

esaier, since the job is their biggest concern.

START @ THE CAPITAL is a new service right in Lansing that helps soon to graduate or recently graduated students from

Michigan State University find a job in their field. By providing an interactive list of open positions in Lansing

within four major areas, students will be able to find initial contact info easier than ever before. There’s no logging in
