Source text - English The Nobu Legacy
At InterContinental Hong Kong
“Cooking is my life; I wish good food brings more peace and happiness to the world.”
Chef Nobu Matsuhisa’s simple but heartfelt philosophy is perhaps why Nobu is so successful.
First opened in New York over a decade ago, Nobu had reinvented the concept of upscale Japanese dining with bold, innovative creations. His artful fusion of authentic Japanese cooking with international influences went on to become winning recipes that have made their mark around the world.
But culinary genius aside, Nobu’s dedication to serving the finest food – using only the finest ingredients – is a constant in the world of dining fads, and his restaurants quickly gained acclaim in cities such as Los Angeles, London, Milan and Tokyo.
The legacy of Nobu has now been brought to Hong Kong. The 17th Nobu restaurant has opened its doors at the InterContinental Hong Kong, where discerning diners can choose from signature dishes such as yellowtail sashimi with jalapeno, black cod saikyo yaki, or creations featuring fresh locally-grown ingredients.
A stunning harbour view and an intimate, stylish interior seal the chic status of this restaurant, which is a perfect complement to the cosmopolitan and fashionable city that is Hong Kong. Bon appétit!

Its international network is made of branches, representative offices and banking subsidiaries in 50 countries worldwide. The Group's aim is to be recognised as a domestic player in every market in which it operates by placing a strong emphasis on its presence in local communities.
UCI decision to enter the Turkish market was based on a strong vision in the significant growth potential of Turkey and its banking sector. UCIs presence in Turkey dates back to October 2002 when UCI finalized a 50%-50% partnership with the Koç Group in Koç Financial Services (KFS), a first in the Turkish financial sector. The aim of the strategic partnership has been to consolidate and significantly grow KFS’s position as one of the top leading financial groups in Turkey in order to realize a sizable value generation opportunity.
UCI and its local partner Koç Group further deepened their commitment for growth in Turkey by acquiring, through KFS, Yapı Kredi Bank (YKB), one of Turkey’s top four private banks at the time and a leading retail franchise.

English to Chinese: User setup menus
Source text - English USER SETUP MENUS
PC-IP software may be used to properly configure your CM1000 with your channel plan, selection of tests and the Pass/Fail Limits before you use the SMART one button test icons. Setup may also be done from the keypad if this feature is enabled. Front Panel Setup is enabled when the CM1000 is shipped from Sunrise. The CM1000 requires configuration of the cable modem param-eters to range and register with the CMTS.If you have not configured your CM1000 manually or with the PC-IP software, please install the PC-IP software on your PC or setup the CM1000 manually according to the manual. Channel tables and downstream DOCSIS channel selection is performed from the front panel, if the user is allowed access. Once the cable modem ranges and registers on the network, a setup configuration file can be downloaded to configure the CM1000. If a download configuration file is not setup on an FTP server for the network, the unit may be configured manually. The default is to allow access. If the administrator wants to limit the user’s access to these configuration features, PC-IP software or the General Setup (password required) can be used to DISABLE the user’s access.
(Figure 3-1)
A series of setup screens for establishing any of the parameters provide flexibility in configuring the CM1000. These param-eters may also be setup via PC-IP software. Access to the General Setup screens is password protected and programmable (enable or disable) on a screen-by-screen basis. Once the pass-word is established and entered, the user may enable or disable access to each setup screen by enabling or disabling each in the second General Setup screen. When the Shift/Setup keys are pressed a Setup menu appears to select the category of setup: Cable Modem, Channel Tables, General, Limits, Upstream Spectrum, Return Pilot Generator Option, realView Option and Leakage Option. Use the arrow keys to select the desired setup icon and press Enter. If the selected screen is enabled and access is allowed, the user gains access the selected setup screen. If the setup screen is disabled a message is displayed that access is not enabled.
