留住一處水鴨的棲息地--
美國水壩的拆除記錄報告
原載於 1999.04.14 19版民眾副刊
原作：Shawn Cantrell World Rivers Review 1997 八月
翻譯：古學斌（英國倫敦大學人類學博士，香港理工大學應用社會科學系助理教授）
在1997年秋天，地球之友（Friends of the Earth）發表一個記錄了美國幾百個水壩拆除案的新報告，這報告包括了美國每一州的情況，同時還有幾個已完成拆除的詳細個案。它也討論了幾個有關的爭議，那就是怎樣決定水壩應否拆除。這報告為制定水利政策者或關心這議題的市民，提供了許多有價值的關於水壩拆除的經驗，作為他們日後考慮是否拆除他們自己社區水壩時參考。

龙卷风最为一种异常天气现象,不可能频繁发生.因为,空气是流体,在地球这个流体环境中,不平衡的气流一般都要向相对平衡过渡,在向相对平衡过渡中必然是不平衡的,但趋势是要想平衡过渡的.这里面还有流体中的物质有向均匀分布的方向过渡的趋势的原因.

About the lost opportunities
“I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plan to give you hope and a future.”
----Jeremiah 29:11
When I look back over my life, I can see where I’ve missed out on some God-given opportunities. Maybe you could say the same thing. If so, I want to encourage you: Don’t live in regret. Don’t let lost opportunities make you feel disappointed and discouraged. Know that God is bigger than your lost opportunities and He can still get you to where you need to be in life.
----Jeremiah 29:11

我們樹立起這座贖罪紀念碑
１９０３年１０月２７日"
