1.巴拉圭冬發放Winter warmers for needy families

First up today, it's winter in Paraguay, so local Tzu Chi volunteers recently went to the Santa Ana neighborhood, of the capital Asuncion City, to hand out supplies - including blankets and food baskets - to 264 families. Though it was overcast on the day of the distribution, the arrival of the volunteers brightened up the residents.

今天節目一開始,巴拉圭正值寒冬,慈濟志工特別前往亞松森的Santa Ana,為264戶人家帶來過冬物資和毛毯,儘管天空灰濛濛的,但是志工的愛暖了大家的心。



2.菲獨居修屋Never give up

From Paraguay to the Philippines, where we meet 62-year-old Lolita Mergano. Now living alone, her youngest daughter committed suicide, and her son was involved in the murder of her husband. Coming under Tzu Chi's care, Lita - as her friends call her - used some of the money, she got from Tzu Chi, to set up a business, and now puts some of her profits into a bamboo coin bank, to help others in need.

鏡頭從巴拉圭轉到菲律賓,帶您認識一位六十二歲的蘿麗塔阿嬤,她在小女兒自殺、兒子弒父之後,一個人獨居,朋友都叫她麗塔,在慈濟長期關懷下,麗塔還把慈濟補助的生活費部分拿來做生意,為的是能投錢進竹筒,幫助其他人。



3.深山保育員(3)台灣黑熊Animal station bears a burden

Run by Taiwan's Endemic Species Research Institute, the Low Altitude Experimental Station is a sanctuary for Formosan black bears. The station currently has nine animals, that were either injured in traps, or for other reasons cannot be returned to the wild. In the latest in our series of features on the people who protect Taiwan's wildlife, we meet the keepers at the station.

農委會特有生物研究保育中心低海拔實驗站,是台灣黑熊的收容中心,中心現在收容有9隻黑熊,牠們都是因為誤觸捕獸夾受傷,或是某些因素無法返回大自然棲息地,今天的深山保育員專題中,帶大家認識特生中心的飼養員。



4.綠能教室A low carbon classroom

Chi Mei(奇美) Optoelectronics Corporation, and Innolux Education Foundation, have come together to help Dashan(大山) Elementary School in Taiwan's Miaoli(苗栗) County, to set up a low carbon classroom. The electrical appliances are all powered by the energy produced from two solar panels. Moreover, a thermostat, light meter and CO2 detector, help the teachers and students know when to switch on and off the lights and fans. With the hi-tech equipment, the carbon footprint produced by the classroom, is only half that of normal classrooms.

奇美電子公司和群創教育基金會,一起協助苗栗縣後龍鎮的大山國小,成立一間減碳教室,教室電燈、電扇和電器電力,都來自樓頂的兩塊太陽能光電板,另外,教室有溫度,照度和二氧化碳的監測儀器,讓師生掌握適合開燈和開電扇的時機,有了這些先進的儀器,讓減碳教室的用電量只有一般教室的一半。



5.緬甸佛寺環保Keeping temple clean

For a long time, Tzu Chi volunteers in Myanmar have been going to Khamayana Nunnery School, to share their unique culture with the students. Unfortunately, apart from the humanistic atmosphere in the air, because the school is near a garbage dump, it often reeks of decomposing waste. So, the volunteers initiated a cleanup campaign, enlisting the help of the enthusiastic students. It was also a chance to teach the youngsters about environmental awareness.

緬甸慈濟志工長期和當地的柯瑪雅娜佛寺互動,分享人文理念,不過除了瀰漫人文氣息之外,因為佛寺鄰近垃圾堆,充滿垃圾臭味,志工決定帶動大家做環保,沙彌尼也一起幫忙,志工也透過這個機會和大家分享環保觀念。



6.大愛感恩獲獎Da Ai Technology recognized

In celebration of Republic of China's 100th birthday, more than 200 businesses in Taiwan were recognized by the government, for their contribution to the country. Among them was Da Ai Technology, which was commended for making environmentally friendly clothes, out of recycled plastic bottles. To help raise awareness of conservation, the company now includes information on how its products are made, on the QR code on the price tag. A quick scan, with a smart phone, gives shoppers the background story behind the items they are buying.

適逢中華民國建國百年,全台總共有兩百多家廠商獲得優良廠商金萃獎,其中包括大愛感恩科技公司,因為用回收的寶特瓶做出環保的衣物,而為了提高環保意識,大愛感恩科技也特別製作了二維條碼在產品的標籤上,透過智慧型手機的掃描,讓消費者可以一目了然產品的製造過程。


7.印尼周尼A reformed gambler

Johny Chandra is an Indonesian Tzu Chi volunteer, who developed the habit of gambling in middle school. It wasn't until he was hospitalized, for liver disease, in 2007; and a 25-year-old friend of his died in an accident, that he finally realized how he was frittering his life away. Now, the reformed gambler is making up for his reckless past, by caring for the needy, and doing recycling work.

在印尼,有一位慈濟志工周尼,他從國中開始就無所不賭,一直到2007年肝病住院,加上一位年僅25歲的朋友意外往生,讓他發現過去空過許多人生,現在周尼不再賭博,而是膚慰苦難,做環保救地球。



8.汶川團訪杉林Youcheng Foundation visit Shanlin

The China Social Entrepreneur Foundation, also known as the Youcheng(友成) Foundation, is non-profit organization, made up of disaster relief groups. After seeing how Tzu Chi helped earthquake victims in Sichuan, the Foundation put together a delegation to visit Taiwan. On Tuesday, they stopped by the Shanlin Da Ai Community, and were moved by what they saw.

友成企業家扶貧基金會,簡稱友成基金會,是個非政府組織,由許多幫助災民重建家園的代表所成立的,在看到汶川地震,慈濟如何提供助援,讓大家深受啟發,決定到台灣參訪,在6月28日星期二,代表團來到南台灣的杉林大愛園區,並被他們所看到的深受感動。


9.歷史的今天On this day, the 30th of June.

Tower Bridge of London
Sometimes mistakenly called "London Bridge", the British Capital's Tower Bridge officially opened on this day in 1894. Sitting over the River Thames, the suspension bridge is also a drawbridge allowing vessels on the river to pass unhindered.

1964 Shimen Dam finished
After eight years of construction and costing more than 3.2 billion NTD, the main dam of the Shimen Reservoir in northern Taiwan was completed on this day in 1964.

1995年,首創盲用電腦,淡江大學新研發,由北台灣的淡江大學自行研發成功的盲用電腦,在1995年的今天與世人見面,結合中華電信的中文語音系統,以及導盲滑鼠系統,讓視障者能進行文書處理工作。
