香港的共享办公空间

(图片)
共享工作空间,也称为共享办公空间,在快节奏的香港似乎越来越受欢迎。那么究竟什么是共享办公空间,它又是如何让商务人士选择它而不选择传统的办公室呢?
香港共享工作空间的故事始于BootHK创始人乔纳森·布福德(Jonathan Buford)的名字,他是香港城市共享工作空间的先驱。从那时起,共享办公场所在香港如雨后春笋般涌现,试图满足对这种新形式不断增长的需求。
那么共享工作空间有什么好处呢?
这种工作形式经常被小企业或自由职业者选择,是在家工作或在当地咖啡店工作的绝佳选择。
共享办公室提供更多隐私和真实的办公环境,同时帮助您节省租金和个人办公室的维护费用。
它还节省了原本会花在办公室事务上的时间,例如我们支付水电费、安排清理和维修、购买办公家具等。
然而,对于年轻企业家来说,最大的好处之一绝对是有机会与其他像他们一样的人见面并分享想法、挑战和创造力。毕竟,共享环境不仅仅是共享的工作空间,更是创业精神、想象力和灵感的共享。

GLUTEN: FRIEND OR FOE?

Gluten-free

You’ve probably heard a lot about gluten. And even more probably  – in the context of a “gluten-free diet”.

But what is gluten and why are we encouraged to free our diet from it?

Gluten is a protein, often found in wheat and related grains, including barley and rye.

Gluten gives elasticity to dough, helping it rise and keep its shape and often gives the final product a chewy texture (have you tried glutinous rice?)

gluten rice

Most of us unknowingly love it, because gluten gives our favorite foods that special touch: It makes pizza dough stretchy, gives bread its spongy texture, and is used to thicken sauces and soups.

Gluten is also used in cosmetics, hair products, and other dermatological preparations.

So why is gluten bad for you?

Actually, it is not bad for everyone. But it is extremely bad for people, suffering from gluten intolerance, or celiac disease.

Experts once thought celiac disease was a rare disorder, believed to affect one in every 10,000 people. However, a recent study of 2003 revealed that celiac disease is more prevalent than suspected before and affects one in 133 people.

HYDRA So here’s the question – should you go gluten-free?

Definitely yes – IF you have celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.

But if you do not suffer form the above-mentioned conditions, you may find it unnecessarily difficult.

What can a gluten free diet give you?

There is a popular idea that a gluten-free diet is a ticket to a perfect body. But experts say that there is nothing magical about a gluten-free diet. What it can do is seriously limit the number of foods available to you. And yes, a gluten-free diet is a PAIN. Since gluten makes foods thick and tasty, it is added to everything from salad dressing to soy sauce to seasonings.

The diet can also backfire. Gluten-free is not a synonym to fat or sugar-free. So without gluten, food manufacturers often add more fat and sugar to bind food together. Example? A serving of gluten-containing pretzels has about 110 calories and ne gram of fat. A gluten-free version of the same snack is 140 calories and six grams of fat.

So, as always, we think that healthy moderation is the right choice.

As for those suffering form celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, stay tuned for our next post – “How to eat gluten-free in Hong Kong”

 

无麸质:朋友还是敌人?

(图片)
您可能听说过很多关于麸质的信息。更有可能是在“无麸质饮食”的背景下。
但是什么是麸质,为什么我们鼓励我们从它的饮食中解放出来?
麸质是一种 蛋白质,通常存在于 小麦 和相关谷物中,包括 大麦和 黑麦。
麸质使 面团弹性 ,帮助它 上升 并保持其形状并经常使最终产品 耐嚼 的质地(你试过糯米?)
(图片)
我们大多数人都在不知不觉中喜欢它,因为麸质给我们最喜欢的食物带来了特殊的触感:它使比萨饼有弹性,使面包具有海绵状质地,并用于使酱汁和汤变稠。
麸质还用于化妆品、美发产品和其他皮肤病制剂。
那么为什么麸质对你有害呢?
事实上,这对每个人都不是坏事。但对于患有麸质不耐受或乳糜泻的人来说,这是极其不利的。
专家们曾认为乳糜泻是一种罕见的疾病,据了解每 10,000 人中就有一个受到影响。然而, 2003 年的一项研究表明,乳糜泻比以前怀疑的更为普遍,每133人中就有一人受到影响。
(图片)
那么问题来了——你应该无麸质吗?
绝对可以,如果您患有乳糜泻或麸质敏感症。
但是,如果您没有受到上述条件的影响,您可能会发现它不必要地困难。
无麸质饮食可以为您带来什么?
有一种流行的观点认为无麸质饮食是通往完美身体的门票。但专家表示,无麸质饮食并没有什么神奇之处。它可以做的是严重限制您可以获得的食物数量。是的,无麸质饮食是一种痛苦。由于麸质使食物变得浓稠可口,因此它被添加到从沙拉酱到酱油再到调味料的所有食物中。
饮食也会适得其反。无麸质不是脂肪或无糖的同义词。因此,如果没有麸质,食品制造商通常会添加更多的脂肪和糖来将食物粘合在一起。例如,一份含麸质的椒盐脆饼含有大约 110 卡路里的热量和 1 克脂肪。同一种零食的无麸质版本是 140 卡路里和 6 克脂肪。
因此,我们一如既往地认为健康适度是正确的选择。
至于那些患有乳糜泻或麸质敏感症的人,请继续关注我们的下一篇文章——“如何在香港吃无麸质食物”

+ there are several fundamental legal concepts, pertaining to company law. They are

a)  Legal Personality

As we have mentioned in the previous post, a limited company is an artificial person and is regarded by law as having a separate legal entity distinct from its members (Salomon v Salomon & Co Ltd (1987)). A limited company has a legal capacity to make contracts, take legal action, own property, sue or be sued as a natural person.

b)  Perpetual Succession

A company does not automatically dissolve with the death or bankruptcy of the owner or any of the partners. It will continue in existence until it is dissolved by a court order or by liquidation, e.g. Jardine Matheson Group over 100 years.

c)   Limited Liability

It refers to the concept that members of a limited company have a limited liability to the extent of any amount unpaid on their shares.

d)  Restriction of Business Activities

The business or activities of a company is restricted or regulated or regulated by its memorandum and articles of association, the Companies Ordinance, etc.

b) 永久继承
公司不会因所有者或任何合伙人的死亡或破产而自动解散。它将继续存在,直到它被法院命令或清算,例如怡和集团超过100年。
