1.宏都拉斯發放 1st Tzu Chi flood relief since Mitch
On Saturday, November 12, the Tzu Chi disaster assessment team in Honduras helped distribute food to 1,200 flood-affected families in the municipality of Marcovia, in Choluteca department. Each 26kg bag of supplies contained corn-flour, rice, beans, sugar, and salt. Thirteen years ago, when Hurricane Mitch hit Central America, Tzu Chi volunteers from the USA went to Honduras to hand out aid. After the recent flooding, they are back again, this time only to find that they are outnumbered by local volunteers.
周六，11月12日，慈濟宏都拉斯賑災團在秋省的馬可比雅市，展開第一場的水患大型發放，共發放1200戶，每戶近26公斤重的生活物資，包括玉米粉、大米、紅豆、糖、鹽，13年前因為密契颶風重創中美洲，慈濟志工的腳步踏上這塊受傷的土地，水患發生後，美國志工再度來到宏國，進行物資援助，但是這一次卻加入許多當地志工的協助。
2.泰慈濟 Tzu Chi lifeline for Bangkok residents
Next we move to Thailand, a country also gravely affected by flood. Tzu Chi volunteers continue to be a lifeline for victims displaced by the flooding, who are sheltering at the government”s Administration Center in Bangkok”s Laksi district, and the surrounding area. Recently a group of children brought their enthusiasm and energy to the volunteering effort; their presence added a familial warmth to the shelter.
泰國是另一個深受水患之苦的國家，泰國慈濟志工持續在曼谷的泰國行政中心收容所，以鄰近地區膚慰災民，當中還有一群小志工，也一起來投入，用他們的活力與熱情，構成在收容所一幅幅溫馨的畫面。

3.多賀城發放 Cash aid in Shiogama and Tagajo
Last Wednesday, November 9, Tzu Chi began a three-day cash distribution for March 11 quake and tsunami victims in the cities of Shiogama and Tagajo, both in Miyagi Prefecture. A total of over 7,500 households benefited from the distributions, which were entirely organized by local volunteers. A day before the event, volunteers were still recruiting helping hands for the large-scale handout. Despite the shortage of volunteers, the events still went smoothly. In the next story we go to Tagajo City, to meet a few volunteering locals, who even called on friends to help their compatriots together.

4.印尼防災展覽 Disaster prevention expo in Jakarta

6.美水懺陳姵璇 Vegetarian at birth
In Chinese communities, many parents trick their children into eating fish, by saying that it will make them smarter. But for five-year-old Chen Peixuan 陳姵璇 who lives in the United States, and has been a vegetarian since birth, it is studying that helps her become smarter, not eating fish.

8.科學的100堂課(塑膠)(1) Plasticizer scare in Taiwan
Commonly found in soft drinks, clouding agents are a type of food additive used to help different ingredients mix better.

Though exhibiting similar properties as clouding agents, DEHP, is harmful to humans. Here is our special report.
