4. 彰水懺倒數 Changhua: counting down
The last four showings of the Water Repentance musical production will be taking place in Changhua this weekend, at the Changhua County Stadium. For five consecutive days, more than 100 Tzu Chi volunteers have been mobilized to set up the stage, lighting, audio, and flooring for the show. On Wednesday night, the 1,008 cast members of the show carried out their first major dress rehearsal, running through scene after scene, in the hot and humid arena, with determination and joy.
這星期六和星期日兩天，彰化四場水懺演繹，將在彰化體育館豋場，連續五天來，每天都有上百位慈濟志工布置場地，不論是舞台、燈光、音響、地毯等，星期三晚上，彰化地區一千零八位入經藏菩薩，在彰化體育館展開社區第一場彩排，演繹菩薩在悶熱的環境，一遍又一遍彩排，仍水懺法喜，湧入心頭。
5.彰場地貼標 Reusing resources at Changhua show
Earlier at the Changhua County Stadium, major work was being done by nearly 100 volunteers to mark the floor with stickers that assist performers with the complicated choreography. The stencils used to do the marking were recycled from the shows in Kaohsiung, making a good use of existing resources.
稍早在彰化體育館，慈濟志工動員近百人進行貼地標的工作，讓演譯人員能圓滿呈現演出，也回收高雄場次的地標模板，珍惜並延續物命。
6.水懺聯誼併 Continuing dharma of stage show
Although the Taipei performance of the Water Repentance musical came to a successful close two weeks ago, the performance continues to reverberate in the hearts of the volunteers who took part. In the Neihu and Nangang districts of the city, as well as Taishan and Linkou in New Taipei City, performers held separate gatherings to thank the musical”s volunteers for their six months of hard work. The volunteers say they want the dharma joy, that was cultivated by the musical, to continue to grow in their hearts and their communities.
兩星期前，台北小巨蛋水懺經藏演繹圓滿落幕，不過感動還在所有的志工心中，包括台北市內湖、南港還有新北市泰林地區的志工，分別舉辦了入經藏感恩會，感恩所有人半年多來的努力，也會把這分入經藏帶來的法喜，繼續帶給所有的社區居民。
7.水懺謝佳穎 Dharma transforms mother, daughter
Xie Jiaying and Shi Xiaohua (謝佳穎和施曉樺)are another mother-daughter pair participating in Tzu Chi”s Water Repentance musical. Xie Jiaying used to be quick tempered and impatient, but now she is nurturing and loving. To Shi Xiaohua, it is as if she has a new mother.
謝佳穎和施曉樺是一對加入慈濟慈悲三昧水懺演出的母女檔，謝佳穎以前可是脾氣不好又沒耐性，但現在的她身段柔軟又溫柔，對施曉樺來說，彷彿有了位新媽媽。
《 衲履足跡 》On Religion 談宗教
Some of the duties of Tzu Chi volunteers are to dispel superstitions, promote true Buddhism, and raise awareness of what the religion represents.
These are guidelines and protocols to life. Ethics and morality should serve as guiding lights for humanity.
慈濟人不只是破除迷信，也宣導宗教；不只為佛教宣導，而是讓人人知道宗教開闊的意義。「宗」是人生宗旨、「教」是生活教育，應守持身而為人的人倫道理。
8.銀行不存錢(3)種子銀行 Noah”s ark for plant life
In our continuing series of feature reports on banks with a difference, today we introduce you to a seed bank. (CG) Taiwan”s National Plant Genetic Resources Center is a huge vault, with a collection of over 70,000 different seeds. The bank has a basketball-court sized refrigerator, which stores seeds at around zero degrees Celsius, for mid-term periods; and a smaller freezer, at minus 18 degrees, which can hold seeds for 50-100 years. () Some people say the seed bank is a modern Noah”s ark, that rescues and preserves valuable wild plants, for the benefit of future generations.
今天銀行不存錢的專題報導中，介紹你種子銀行，台灣農委會農試所成立的國家作物種原中心，中心裡蒐集保存了有7萬多種的作物種子，種子銀行有個如同籃球場大的大冰庫，中期庫設計在零度左右，而最小的冰庫也在零下18度，一般可以保存50到100年，有些人說種子銀行就像諾亞方舟，保存了很多野生種原，為下一代保存最後的希望。
