	             MARYKNOLL CONVENT SCHOOL ALUMNI NETWORK	

To all fellow Maryknollers,
	This is another issue of the mailing list again.  For those who are 
not familiar with this, let me explain that all the names are grouped under
the Cert (F.5) year.  For those who left earlier, will still be classified
with the people of their own class year.
	There is another "confidential" list, with all information of the below
names.  (e.g email id, address, phone no....)  It could be obtained through me.
Please note that the list is available Maryknollers ONLY.  Members of the list
will automatically receive a copy.

	The main objective of this network is to help us to get in touch with
our fellow schoolmates.  The list will be posted here about twice a month.  
Please let me know if you have any question, suggestion or idea.  I really need
your support in making this.  For those who want to join the list please email 
me at:	
		success@camelot.bradley.edu
	And I am Elizabeth Luk (graduated in 1990, Form 6).

Well, Leon Lai is just OK.  He imitates Jacky Cheung, Leslie Cheung, and 
some other people.  Some people like him, some don't.  If I were you, I
would not be very exciting to get one copy of his songs, but if it is 
by chance, it is OK.  After all, he is not reaaly very bad.  I will comment
on Aaron Kwok because I have not listened to any of his songs yet.

I don't think Lai Ming is as bad as the way described in some of the news
article.  I feel pity for him since no matter how hard he has tried to
improve in singing his songs, most people still argue that he always sings
out of tone.  Don't be so stubborn and just give him a chance instead.
Support him in a way and stop complaining.
If you were put in the same situation, I think you will feel very
discouraging. 

So stop complaining and be CONSIDERATE!

You are probably right, but I suspect that those are embassies
to the United Nations, not the United States.

The UN should be treated as a special case.  It is an entity, 
and a body of nations by itself, although it does not have any 
physical/geography boundaries, nor does it have a capital.  

NY City, where the UN Headquarters  are located, is just a "host" 
city.  I remember in recent years there were at least a couple of 
attempts to move the UN Headquarters to another country, and one
suggestion is to rotate the  HQ in different countries.

Just imagine that the US has an ambassdor to the UN in its own 
physical country boundaries (in NY City).  Libya and many other 
countries which don't have any diplomatic relationship with the 
US also have embassies in NY City, but they are confined to within
a short distance/radius within/from the UN.

I think your saying about the density of population above is wrong.
According to the text book I had for my form 2 Social Studies (what the
heck! five years ago!!), the area with the highest density of popluation in
Hong Kong which was about 160,000 people/sq.km was Sam Sui Bo.

 Speaking of unknown chemicals, My favorite type of instant noodles are the
Cup of Noodles type(just pour boiling water and wait three minutes).
I noticed the variety of Cup of Noodles availible in the U.S. is bland in
comparison to the multitude of flavors availible in HK.  The american variety
don't include any meats or good flavors such as Curry.
If the importers can bring in instant doll noodles, why can't they bring in
HK style Cup of Noodles.

I am writing to seek help from anyone who knows where I can get the 88  
issues of Ming Pao (newspaper) and 89 issues of South China Morning Post.

They are needed for research purpose. At the beginning, I thought I would  
be able to get them in the Library of Congress. But for some reasons, some  
of those particular issues I want are missing in the Library. So, I want  
to know whether they would be available in some other universities in the  
East Coast. (I am in Maryland, so maybe in New York, PA, or NJ)

Be specific, the issues I am looking for are:
	South China Morning Post Jan - March 1989
	Ming Pao - Oct - Dec 1988

I would appreciate if anyone of you who know your university's library  
keeps these papers for these particular periods can send me a note.

Thanks a lot.

Peter, you are right to say Saucer's spirit is some demon's influence.
I've tried it before. The "spirit" claimed that it was a dead guy, and
what it could do is to tell you about your past and your future. But
it was lying right at the beginning, 'cos after a person dies, his/her
spirit will go to a place which is neither heaven nor hell, not even
can it stay on Earth and contact other living people. You can go to a
church and ask anyone there, they'll tell you exactly the same thing.
And you may now wonder what the "spirit" is. It's actually demon, one
of the follower of Satan. They are just trying to fool people that the
spirit of a dead people can still "live" on Earth.   
Talking about the power of those "spirits," knowing about one's past
is very very simple, at least he/she knows. But about the future,
they are just bullshiting. They are totally wrong, trust me, they know
nothing about your future. Again, if you wanna know why, go to ask
any christian around you. 'Cos, although they may not be experts on
this, they know more than you do.

	After reading some articles about Lisa Wong, I found some of you are
being kind of mean and harsh to her and really would like to say something
to defend her.

	Even though she is not a excellent singer, she indeed had a lot of 
songs which becames classics, songs like "Man Shiu Chin San Chong Si Chain",
"The Brave Chinese", and "King Wah Cheun Mon", etc, are really well known 
and unforgetable. Besides that she is a pretty decent MC and host in a 
variety of shows, such as K-100.

	When I flipped over a "Ming Pao Weekly" of 1976 the other day, Lisa was
in one of the centerfold.  I have to admit that she was really beautiful at 
that time.  That year was her peak year.  She was really popular and she had 
starred a lot of popular shows, such as "The Legend of Book and Sword", "The
Legend of Sword and Dragon Knife".  People had mentioned that at those years 
many girls had worn the same hairstyle as she had and tried to imitate her.
She was beloved by many people at those years.  Well, as time has passed, 
she started to get old, people began to criticize her a lot.  It is really 
unfair to her! People began to pay more attention to her personal life, 
her relationship with Mr.X, Law Ka Yin, etc.

	Everyone gets old some day.  Don't forget Lisa Wong possesses some
skills that most idles don't have, such as managing a big big show in a
elegant and appropriate manner.  If we pay more attention to those subtle
skills, we would appreciate her more.  Lisa Wong is not over yet.

P.S. Even though I am trying to defend Lisa from those unfair critics,
     I just cannot stop myself from laughing every time I think of her 
     wearing the sexy custome and singing "HOT COFFEE"!!!!!!!!!  :)

Technically most of the diplomatic branches in New York are not
Embassies, being that the UN is not a nation.  They are Missions
to the UN.

However, most of them do handle some consular affairs and provide
visa issuance.

Thus, Washington D.C. has the largest number of embassies in the US.

	Here is a question for the staff of CUHK. If anybody have try to
telnet or ftp to the host in hp9000.csc.cuhk.hk, they may find out that
the host refuse to accept any telnet from remote host and ftp from 
anonymous. Why? They provided this service before.
	
	As a important host in HK, in my opinion, the hp9000.csc.cuhk.hk
should accept attempt from other people to its system. I am also so depressed
that they also stop the ftp service to anonymous instead of improve it.

	Of course, this is only the internal affair of the university. We
shouldn't force them to do any thing to the public. However, hp9000.csc.cuhk.hk
is one of the most important host in educational society. I hope they can
really do more.

	If the CUHK really has problem in maintaining this service, I hope
they can share the experience to us. Please don't let people down, so please
don't let your system down.
