節日特別籌款 SDCA Holiday Season Special Fundraising
隨著節日的接近，我們許多人都在煩惱着為家人，朋友和同事找一個完美的禮物。 剛好，
我們有一個皆大歡喜的禮物要推薦給你。物理室內玻璃伽利略溫度計的多彩法則（如下圖
所示） As the Holiday season is approaching, many of us are pulling hair to find the perfect gift
for family, friends and colleagues. Look no further, we have a wonderful gender neutral gift for
your loved ones. Colorful Law of Physics Indoor Glass Galileo Thermometer (shown in the
following picture).
- The thermometer, based on a design by Galileo, consists of a sealed glass tube that is filled
with liquid and 10 floating bubbles. The bubbles are glass spheres, each of which is filled
with colored liquid mixture.
- Attached to each bubble is a little metal tag with a temperature reading. These metal tags
are calibrated counterweights. The weight of each tag is slightly different from the others.
-The bubbles are calibrated by adding a certain amount of fluid to them so that they have
the exact same density.
-This thermometer is approximately 3” wide and deep with 17.5” tall. It comes in a protective
paper box for easy wrapping.
這些特殊的溫度計是來自SDCA家族的一位慷慨捐贈的鍾奇杰老師，SDCA將此損贈作為開校
30週年慶典的籌款活動之一出售！ 我們將於12/3/17這個週日開始在SDCA辦公室出售，並
在整個學年的上課期間繼續進行。我們將以每個10美元的價格出售，這是一個你無法從其
他地方得到的好價錢！（類似的項目在亞馬遜超過30美元+稅+運費）！ 數量有限，將先
到先得。 所以請盡快來看看。
These special thermometers are generous gifts from one of SDCA families, Mr. Chi Chieh Chung,
and SDCA will be selling them as one of fundraising events for the upcoming SDCA 30 year
anniversary celebration! We will continue selling them in the SDCA office. We are selling them
at $10 each , that’s a great price you can’t get from anywhere else (similar item sold on Amazon

臘月是幾月?為什麼稱這個月為臘月?
臘月是農曆的最後一個月，即農曆的十二月。為什麼稱農曆十二月為「臘月」呢?
「臘月」是怎麼來的呢?在古時候，臘月也稱「蠟月」，跟歲時之祭祀有關，所謂
「臘」，本為歲終的祭名。
轉眼間，一年過去了，新的一年已經來臨。在臘月裡有許多節日和習俗，如臘月初八、
臘月二十三、臘月二十九等等。
蠟月的由來，據漢應劭《風俗通義》謂「夏曰嘉平，殷曰清祀，周用大蠟，漢改為臘。
臘者，獵也，言田獵取禽獸，以祭祀其先祖也。」或曰：「臘者，接也，新故交接，
故大祭以報功也。」古時秦國人在年末時，以狩獵的獸類祭祀先祖稱為臘，所以至今
把農曆每年最後一個月成為臘月。在臘月裡都要搞祭祀活動，所以臘月是個「祭祀之月」。
臘月為中國人最忙的一個月。除吃臘八粥、過臘八節外，還要準備大掃除、辦年貨、
送灶神等活動。
