捷運圓仔車
捷運文湖線專屬的"圓仔列車"今天正式亮相。除了車廂內外都有圓仔的彩繪圖案外，最特別的是，坐椅還貼了圓仔3D立體貼紙，讓乘客坐在椅子上，就像在跟圓仔一起搭車互動一樣。

黃色大木馬
宜蘭三星鄉為了迎接馬年的到來，請來木匠師，打造一座高6公尺的超大木馬，四噸半的重量，還必須出動曳引車才拉得動，今天進行踩街儀式，要將木馬移動到花田海中，場面相當熱鬧。

年貨街攤位
長達四百公尺的高雄年貨大街-三鳳中街將在週六正式開幕，今天已經提早出現買氣，就怕人手不夠，店家最愛有經驗、配合度高的工讀生，除了吃飯時間，都得忙著招呼客人的薪水，每天行情約一千到一千二，就連攤位行情也不錯，過年期間要價五萬塊。

Yuanzai on the Metro
Travelers on Taipei Metro’s Wenhu Line can now take a new “Yuanzai”-inspired train. Carriage interiors and exteriors both have pictures of the panda cub, including 3D-stickers on seats. Passengers can imagine they are riding the metro with Taiwan Zoo’s most popular new resident. 

Massive Rocking Horse
To welcome the coming arrival of the Year of the Horse, Sanshing Township, Yilan hired a carpenter to build a 6-meter-tall rocking horse. Today a truck was hired to pull the massive, 4.5-ton sculpture, which will eventually make its way to one of the township’s flower-filled fields.

Kaohsiung New Year’s Street
Kaohsiung’s main street for Lunar New Year supplies officially opens on Saturday. Shops along the 400-meter-long market have already been hiring students who will be paid about NT$1,000 a day to pull in customers. The cost of renting space for a stand this holiday season is about NT$50,000.

The Taipei City government has revealed the Year of the Horse-themed lanterns it will distribute during the upcoming Taipei Lantern Festival. In a break from the past, the giveaway lantern features just one character from the Chinese zodiac.

It’s like a theater. The horse is the main character and there is also a round top that gives it a circus feel.

The design team spent half a year coming up the first rotating lantern ever distributed by Taipei City. It has five different colored horses with a backdrop that includes Taipei 101, a Ferris wheel and other local landmarks. The handle is decorated with a panda design.

Taiwan Featured in Anime (2014/01/13)

An upcoming episode of the new anime television series “Nobunagun” will feature scenes of Taiwan.

告別溫暖的冬陽，今、明兩天，受強烈冷氣團影響，中部最低溫將下探10度，玉山、合歡山有機會飄雪。北部、東北部也會下雨，讓濕冷感覺更明顯。所幸冷氣團影響時間縮短，原本預估一週減半，最快周三氣溫就會回升。

不少人一大早起床，就能感覺，天氣變的冷颼颼，氣象局表示，強烈大陸冷氣團發威，接下來氣溫一路像下滑，最低溫將下探到10度。

[[中央氣象局預報員 劉人瑋]]
“今夜到明晨低溫，在中部以北、宜蘭，約是11到12度左右，南部地區大約有13、14度低溫，週三以後，中部的清晨，有機會出現10度左右低溫”

不只冷，最難受的，還是溼冷。

[[中央氣象局預報員 劉人瑋]]
“今明兩天比較偏冷，水氣上來說，今明的水氣也比較偏多，這兩天高山地區包括玉山、合歡山，是有下雪機會的”

濕冷天氣，週三才會慢慢減緩，不過，這波強烈大陸冷氣團，也帶來中國的空氣污染物，雖然對北部、東部的空氣品質影響不大，但中南部的懸浮微粒，濃度會比較高。

Forecasters expect cold weather to ease starting Wednesday (2014/01/13)

Chilly weather is expected across Taiwan during the next couple days. Forecasters say that the cold air mass affecting the island will begin to weaken toward the middle of the week. 

Upon waking this morning, it was clear that the weather had changed. The arrival of a strong continental cold air mass has pushed temperatures down. Lows in some regions will hit 10 degrees.

Liu Jen-wei
CWB Forecaster
From this evening to early tomorrow morning, lows from central Taiwan to the north, including Yilan, will be about 11 or 12 degrees, and 13 or 14 in the south. On Wednesday, lows of around 10 degrees are possible during the early morning in central Taiwan.

Forecaster Liu Jen-wei mentioned another factor that will make the air feel cooler than it actually is.

台中一家印刷廠，今年不但砸下八千萬辦尾牙，還大手筆犒賞員工，準備了12台百萬名車，送給績優員工，另外年終也高達4到16個月，羨煞不少人。印刷業被視為黃昏產業，這家印刷公司能異軍突起，就在於前後歷經好幾次的轉型。

能獨立印製完成一本書的印刷機，還有數位印刷機，主打網路下單，隔天就能取貨，這家印刷廠改變了傳統印刷的模式，其實早在10年前，就投入2億元建廠轉型。

這幾年還千萬投資成立IT部門，並且開發雲端APP軟體，消費者透過電腦，就可以訂購客製化商品。

[[印刷廠老闆 張訓嘉]]
我們已經做到雲端商業化，我們有實體的加上虛擬的，我認為還有五倍的成長空間。

員工表示，有時工作量大，但相較薪資和福利都遠高於同業，所以他們也都心甘情願打拚。

[[印刷廠員工 鐘清界]]
有時候工作一爆量的時候，工作有可能到12小時， (至少)有付出就會有收穫。

但老闆為了績效好，也替員工找到放鬆的出口，不但有投籃機、跑步機，還能打羽毛球。

這家印刷公司，去年營收近29億元，全台的名片印刷市佔率更是逼近五成，隨著數位時代來臨，靠著老闆的獨到見解，和員工努力打拼，創造出一片天。

We have already moved toward the cloud so we can offer physical and virtual services. I think there’s room to grow this company fivefold.
