1.日第九團發放 Reaching out to Sendai
The world will never forget the earthquake and tsunami, that struck northeast Japan, more than nine months ago, leaving the country in a state of turmoil. Donations from around the globe poured into Japan. Tzu Chi”s ninth disaster relief team recently organized a cash distribution for 9,227 families in Sendai City, of Miyagi Prefecture. Some of the recipients said that the emotional value of the gift meant more than the money itself.
日本三一一大地震，九個多月過後在全球人心裡依舊印象深刻，日本人民重建之路十分艱辛，不過全球愛心豐沛的注入重災區，慈濟人賑災團九度前往東北，這一次來到宮城縣的仙台市，為9227戶受災居民，送上來自全球的見舞金，其實送來的金錢和物資都有限，最讓居民感動的還是背後那份愛心。
2.世紀泰水劫1教育 Students” education halted by floods
As well as love, survivors of the flooding in Thailand are discovering that they also need basic utilities, such as schools and hospitals, to keep their nation together. Many students have lost their school books and uniforms; while their parents have lost their jobs. So, is going back to school a mission impossible? Let”s find out, in our next story.
除了各界關愛，泰國水患災民需要的是一般建設的正常運作，像是教育與醫療服務，很多學生因為大水失去了文具、書本與制服，他們的父母因為沒有工作而沒有收入，所以復學似乎是個艱鉅的任務，下一則報導帶您來看看。
3.學的一百堂課捐血分離(二) Apheresis for blood donations
Yesterday, we gave you a basic introduction to blood donations. Today, we conclude our mini-series by introducing you to the apheresis technology, whereby a donor”s blood is separated, to collect just the plasma or the platelets, to minimize the impact on the subject.
昨天我們為您簡單介紹捐血的過程，今天我們的專題將解釋分離術捐血法，這樣可以採集血液中特定的成分，例如只採取血漿或是血小板，將可減少對捐增者的影響。
4.長濱人醫義診 Free clinic for Changbin residents
Eastern Taiwan TIMA members, as well as medical staff from Hualien, Yuli and Guanshan Tzu Chi Hospitals, recently came together to hold a free clinic in Changbin Township, of Taitung County. The services included orthopedics, surgery, family medicine, ophthalmology, Chinese medicine, and dental treatment.

1.1127泰慈濟 Bangkok free clinic
The floodwater in the Don Muang area of Bangkok, which is near the airport, has gone down far enough for residents to return to their homes. Thinking ahead, Tzu Chi organized a free clinic in the neighborhood, especially to help people with chronic conditions, who need regular medication. The happy smile of one rookie volunteer doctor, who was taking part in a free clinic for the first time, was an immediate antidote for the patients. And the flood victims left the clinic knowing that a lot of people care about them.

To help with the family finances, Weihong”s two older sisters had no choice but to work, and so it has fell on 15-year-old Weihong to take care of his increasingly sick father. Not long after, the family was introduced to Tzu Chi. Volunteers not only took the family under their wings, but also gave Weihong a New Shoots Scholarship, and hope for the future.

1.胡志明發放 Helping low-income families
We start today”s show in Vietnam, where Tzu Chi volunteers have been working with a local woman”s organization, to help low income families through monthly home visitations. After months of support, volunteers were happy to see life improving for the care recipients.
今天的節目首先來到越南，胡志明市的慈濟志工與當地婦女會一起到關懷戶家中進行每月一次慰問金發放和探視，在幾個月的關愛之下，看到關懷戶的狀況改善不少，讓志工們都相當開心與欣慰。
2.北緯38度(1) Needed, respectful, direct aid
Material and emotional support is even more urgently needed in North Korea, where its people suffered a string of natural disasters caused by cold weather, droughts, floods, and storms from 2010 to 2011, which led to a serious food shortage. On August 21, and again on October 2, volunteers flew to the country to assess local needs. Based on the results of the surveys, Master Cheng Yen decided to launch a major aid mission, which took place from November 11-13. The distributions delivered much-needed aid directly into the hands of North Korean villagers.
物資和心靈援助對北朝鮮來說更加重要，因為2010年到2011年，北朝鮮接連經歷嚴冬、乾旱、水災、颱風、糧食欠收嚴重短缺，慈濟人在八月二十一日和十月二日，兩次前往北朝鮮勘災，根據調查結果報告，證嚴上人以「無緣大慈 同體大悲」的悲懷，啟動了救援的機制，賑災團於十一月十三日到十七日，在當地進行發放，將物資發送給北朝鮮受災鄉親。

Power is like a rope; it binds the body, the mind and the spirit.
權勢如繩索，捆綁身心，不得自在。

In the next story we stay in Hualien, where Zulu volunteers from South Africa visited the Tzu Chi Hospital, as well as the local prison, hoping to inspire more people to serve humanity with their music and life-stories.

《 衲履足跡 》On Devotion 談堅定道心
Through conservation we can give the Earth a chance to breath, and the environment a chance to recover.
Instead calling for others to follow, we should lead by example. Everyone must reach out their hands for the world.
唯有保護環境，使大地養息是維護地球，撫平地球傷痛的最佳良方。不只呼籲，還必須身體力行，從自身推及周遭，人人伸出雙手，為保護大地而付出。
5.蘇州有機農場 Organic farming in Suzhou
Tzu Chi volunteers in Suzhou, China have embarked on a sustainable farming project, by creating the ”Tzu Chi Organic Ecological Farm” in the hills above the busy city near Shanghai. The budding farmers are employing modern-day technology and the latest scientific methods to work in harmony with nature. But when we joined them, they were using some low-tech but effective techniques to clear the ground of weeds and rocks.
蘇州慈濟志工也對糧食問題展開關懷，在上海市郊的陽山，闢劃「慈濟有機生態農場」，要把高科學的「和諧共生」農法，向廣大的農民朋友介紹，不過要介紹大家認識農場前，先看他們使用低科技的方式，清除農地上的雜草與小石子。
6.漢旺響應蔬食 Promoting vegetarianism in Hanwang
Staying in China, in Hanwang of Sichuan province, since October Tzu Chi volunteers have been giving seminars on environmentalism and vegetarianism. In the program, volunteers used video clips and short plays to help the local residents understand that meatless food is both healthy and easy to make.
也是中國的報導，從十月開始，在中國四川漢旺社區，慈濟志工展開一連串的研習會，透過短片及短劇，推廣素食與環保，讓當地居民了解吃素很健康也很容易。
7.環保善響應 Plastic bags for recycle
If you put your heart into doing something for the greater good, you”ll soon be joined by other people who are inspired to do the same. That was the case for Tzu Chi volunteers in Taiwan”s Tainan, who go to the Zhonzheng business district twice a week to collect unwanted plastic bags from shops. The recycling program has been so successful that all the shops are now taking part, doing what they can to look after the environment.
只要有心做好事，一定能夠吸引有心人加入，接下來的這則報導，印證了這樣的道理，台南慈濟人每星期兩次都會到中正商圈挨家挨戶將店家廢棄塑膠袋做回收，慈濟人這個回收動作，逐漸讓店家養成回收習慣，一同發心，守護環境。

2.1122泰慈濟 2nd shipment of water arrives
The worst flooding in 70 years has paralyzed many parts of Thailand for four months. The army and police have been on the frontline. One of their problems is the lack of clean drinking water for the troops. Last month, Tzu Chi Malaysia delivered its first shipment of water, for the army. Recently, the second shipment arrived, and was handed over to the navy and the police, who received 80,000 and 40,000 bottles respectively.

《 衲履足跡 》On Purification 談淨化
As people continue to create karma, long-term retribution is a culmination of wrong decisions. The impurities that plague our world all begin with careless thoughts.
Through the guidance of selfless love, we can find salvation for our minds and the environment.
眾生不斷地造業，長時間的「劫」是由「刹那」的短時間不斷累積而成；污染世間的垢穢，也從人的一念心開始。只要以無私大愛引導，也能從淨化人心而淨化大地。

1. 泰國慈濟 Work-relief program survey
Thailand”s floods have at last begun to recede, allowing reconstruction work to finally begin. As international aid pours into the country, and experts make predictions on the impact of the disaster on the economy, Tzu Chi volunteers are already making plans to launch a work-relief program. The scheme, in which flood victims will be paid to clean up their own communities, worked very well in the Philippines, after Marikina was engulfed by Typhoon Ketsna in 2009. Tzu Chi volunteers have been surveying residents of the Laksi district in Bangkok, to see how to adapt the program to local needs. Volunteers carried out a survey, while handing out aid in the Kaona community. But, we start today”s show at the Tzu Chi chapter house, where volunteers were busy, packing bags of supplies.
泰國大水已經開始退去，復原工作即將進行，國際物資援助也到達泰國，專家也預言，水患災情也間接影響當地經濟，慈濟志工即將進行以工代賑行動，要讓災民自行打掃家園，又能領取工資，這項計畫在2009年凱莎娜颱風發生後，也在菲律賓進行的非常順利。志工們在曼谷受災地區進行調查，詢問災民是否願意參與慈濟以工代賑，同時也在 災區展開物資發放，不過今天在慈濟分會，志工忙碌，正在進行物資打包工作。
2. 泰國慢海嘯(5)：水有多深 Granary Lopburi flooded
In the continuation of our featured series, on Thailand”s slow-moving tsunami, we leave the capital, and go to the central province of Lopburi, to understand the situation there. Lopburi is 153km from Bangkok, and the level of floodwater there averages around 7m. Homes have been inundated with water, affecting a third-of-a-million people. The province is known as Thailand”s granary, because it produces 820,000 tons of grain a year. This year, the harvest has all but been wiped out by the flood. But, in our next story, we meet a local farmer, who, despite his losses, is still optimistic about the future.
持續的泰國慢海嘯專題，今年從首都轉移到中部的華富里府，了解當地的水災狀況。來到距離曼谷153公里的華富里府，這裡平均淹7公尺，許多住宅泡湯，受災人數33萬人，號稱泰國的中部糧倉，華富里府年產82萬頓稻作，如今良田都泡在水裡，帶您認識一位農民，他損失慘重，但是樂觀以對，如果災民的心態都和他一樣，那重建的路將會比較順利。

The Malacca Educare Center, in Malaysia, recently held is 10th graduation ceremony. There was a twist to this year”s event, as the school”s 114 students, aged 4-6, came together to perform sections of the Water Repentance Sutra. The months that the children spent memorizing the ancient text, not only resulted in a wonderful show, but also gave the youngsters some useful wisdom, that may come in handy, in their later lives.
馬六甲大愛兒童教育中心舉行第十屆畢業典禮，與往年不同的是，今年動員全校共114位小朋友，呈現水懺經藏演繹，4、5及6歲班的小朋友分別演繹水懺，孩子數個月來的努力在舞台上完美呈現，而經文的智慧，孩子吸收了，將能落實在往後人生道路上。
4. 海外尋根返花(三) New volunteers learn roots
Another commencement ceremony took place in Taiwan recently, as overseas volunteers came to get their commissioners badges. Almost 700 visitors, who were inducted in Sanchong, New Taipei City, arrived in Hualien on Monday, to go back to the roots of Tzu Chi. It was a moving experience for the certified volunteers, both new and old, who said that they are more inspired than ever, to spread Tzu Chi philosophy, once they get back home.
另外，最近在台灣舉行的研習營，海外志工返台接受委員受證，三重場次的700位海外志工受證完畢後，在周一 返回花蓮尋根，不管是資深或是新發意菩薩，每個人都是感動滿滿，也更加堅定心念，回國之後在慈濟路上勤耕耘。

On Nature”s Laws
People should abide by Nature”s Laws, instead of going against them. We should learn to live in harmony with our environment and each other. Tzu Chi actively promotes its environmental mission to help minimize man”s impact on nature.
主題：談順應法則
開示：人類應順應大自然法則，不與之對立，懂得如何在大自然中生活、在人與人之間和平相處。因此，更須大力推廣環保觀念，努力降低因開發而造成的環境破壞。
5. 科學的一百堂課：稻米育種病蟲(二) Keeping bugs away, the natural way
Abiding by nature”s laws, instead of going against them, could be applied to the slow work of rice-breeding in Taiwan. Instead of developing pesticides and chemicals to rebuff attacks from pests and diseases, experts at an Agricultural Research Institute, in the south of Taiwan, are developing new strains of rice, that are naturally resilient to problems like planthopper infection, and the dreaded rice-blast fungus. In the second and final part of our series on rice breeding, we find out more.

1998年，北區急難救助隊正式成立。為了在災難時協助搶救生命，由慈濟男性志工在1998年這一天組成北區急難救助隊，隨後展開各項訓練課程，包括水上救生、山難救援，以及重量訓練，在2000年的象神颱風汐止水災，及2003年的蘆洲大喜市火警，急難救助隊員都提供緊急救援。
1998年，馬來西亞霹靂州，慈濟送愛到今天。1998年連續豪雨導致馬來西亞北部水患，當地慈濟志工在水稍微退去之後，在這一天前往重災區霹靂州等地勘災，並且為受災居民提供民生用品與慰問金，同一天，慈濟志工也前往拜訪居住在偏遠地區的原住民村落，多年來培養良好的友誼及互動。
2000年，首屆研習營，警民愛心一家親。慈濟警察及眷屬聯誼會成立於1995年，由慈濟志工深入各地派出所，為警察量血壓，推廣環保回收，也提倡素食，在2000年這一天，首次在花蓮靜思精舍舉辦研習營。

7. 慈濟霹靂州 Kampung Bukit Asu indigenous ties
As you just saw in our history report, Tzu Chi volunteers in Perak State, of Malaysia, first visited the indigenous peoples, living in the Kampung Bukit Asu mountain area, some 13 years ago. At first, residents refused the offer of aid, from the volunteers. But, after months of regular visits, the indigenous peoples finally opened up, and today enjoy a strong friendship with the volunteers. Let”s take a look at how it all started.
如剛才歷史的報導中所說的，馬來西亞霹靂州的慈濟志工在13年前的這天，首次來到高烏阿素山原住民村落，一開始村民拒絕慈濟的援助，不過在幾個月下來定期的發放後，居民都漸漸打開心門，如今跟志工以建立深厚的友誼，讓我們一起來看看。

In the immediate aftermath, Tzu Chi volunteers in Padang carried out a disaster survey and small aid distributions. Aware that victims were still struggling to cope, the volunteers returned to the area many times, bringing rice, water, cooking oil and clothing for the needy families.
一開始帶大家到印尼，印尼蘇門答臘 11月初暴雨成災，當時超過五萬人被迫撤離家園，巴東慈濟人在當時就曾經前往勘災，先行發放些許物資，由於非常擔心居民的生活，所以志工又連續探訪數次，帶來各項包括白米、水、食用油，還有二手衣等物資，希望災民趕快恢復生活。
2.北加社區義診 Biannual free clinic in N California
People from poor and migrant communities in the United States, who lack medical insurance, often have little hope of seeing a doctor. That”s why Tzu Chi”s chapter in Northern California holds a twice-yearly free clinic, aimed at members of the Hispanic community. At the most recent event, doctors saw a total of 258 cases. Partnering Tzu Chi at the clinic this time was a local hospital, which offered free hepatitis B checks for the residents.
住在美國的窮人家或是移民社區，沒有醫療保險，難以就醫，美國北加州分會，每年兩次為西班牙裔舉辦社區健康日，最近一次，中西醫總共看診258人次，還有其他醫療單位前來，提供免費B肝篩檢守護民眾健康。

4.菲娜妮莉沓 Filipino volunteer makes dream trip
We”ll have more on the thorny issues brought up by the flooding in Thailand tomorrow. But back to today. After receiving help from Tzu Chi in the aftermath of Typhoon Ketsana in 2009, Nanilita Alburo, from the Philippines, signed up as a volunteer, and vowed to save up enough money to visit Taiwan to see Master Cheng Yen. After a year and a half, of vegetarian meals and saving half her salary, Nanilita”s dream came true.
明天還會帶大家看看泰國水患的深入報導，不過，先來看在2009年凱莎娜風災後，住在菲律賓的娜妮莉沓，因接受慈濟的幫助，走入慈濟並發願要存錢回台灣見上人，一年半下來，她日日齋戒，每月存下一半的薪水，終於能如願來到台灣。
5.日生回饋台灣 Japanese student says ”thank you”
Taiwan donated more money to Japan after the March 11 disaster than any other country in the world. The generosity surprised many Japanese people, and inspired one student to make a visit to Taiwan to show his appreciation.
今年日本發生311地震與海嘯災情，台灣對日本的援助金額卻是全球最高，讓許多日本人很感動，為感念台灣馳援日本，一位學生來到台灣，進行感恩回饋之旅。
《 衲履足跡 》 On Humility 談縮小自己
縮小自己，天空才會開闊；學佛，就要學無私大愛的佛心。佛心無私無我，其愛普及天下；學佛者應縮小自己，人生的空間才能開闊寬廣。
The sky is yours when you know how to bend low. Buddhism is the study of Buddha”s selflessness and universal love, and how that love reaches all corners of the world. Buddhists should humble themselves for a life with no limits.
6.牽手一世情 Wang Zhang and his wife
Our next story is about a life of limitless tolerance and patience. Wang Zhang(王掌), from central Taiwan, accompanies his wife, who suffers from dementia, to rehabilitation classes every day. Although this takes up most of his free time, the 78-year-old says marriage is a lifelong commitment.
接下來，帶大家看包容與善解的生活，住在台中市霧峰區的王掌老阿公，每天陪著失智的老伴到草屯療養院參加治療課程，雖然阿公沒有自己的時間，但78歲的阿公說夫妻就是要相互扶持、白頭到老。
7.花慈友善實測 Age-friendly Tzu Chi hospitals
To help seniors enjoy their golden years, institutions in Taiwan are working towards becoming more ”age-friendly”. Recently, Hualien, Yuli and Dalin Tzu Chi Hospitals all won certificates for being ”Friendly Facilities for Senior Citizens”. Let”s see how they did it.
為了讓長者生活開心，台灣相關機構開始關注邁向高齡化的社會，而在台灣的花蓮慈院、玉里慈院與大林慈院，皆通過高齡友善照護機構的認證，讓我們一起來看看。
8.歷史的今天 On this day, the 17th of November.
1558
Coronation
of Elizabeth I
Elizabeth I was the fifth monarch of the Tudor family. Crowned on this day in 1558, she made England the most powerful nation in Europe, and also reigned during a cultural peak in the time of Shakespeare. She sat on the throne for 45 years, but never married and had an heir. After she died, the Tudor dynasty ended with her.
1869
Suez Canal
opens up
The first canal to connect the Red Sea and the Nile was constructed in the days of the Pharaohs, and rebuilt many times. In 1858, the Suez Canal Administration was established, and in 11 years through forced labor the 163km canal was cut through the desert. Opened on this day in 1869, the Suez Canal is today navigated by 25,000 ships a year, which is 14 percent of global sea trade.
1988
Transplants
made legal
When Taiwan passed a bill on cornea transplants, it affected the transplantation of other organs, which were not covered by the law and therefore illegal. So, in 1987, Taiwan announced the Human Body Organ Transplantation Act, and on this day in 1988 the Legislature phased out the cornea transplant act, and opened up life-saving transplantation surgery.
2007
Aid for hungry
in Zimbabwe
When South African Tzu Chi volunteers arrived in Zimbabwe at the beginning of November, in 2007, they visited local elementary schools, nursing homes, hospitals, and orphanages with overseas Taiwanese entrepreneurs. After witnessing poverty and hunger, the volunteers launched their first distribution this day of the same year. The food aid included corn flour, sugar, salt, and cooking oil.
2008
Winter aid
distribution
Towards the end of 2007, Taiwanese Tzu Chi volunteers visited social welfare organizations and nursing homes to give healthy food to elderly and disabled people. The following year, on this day in 2008, volunteers in China”s Fujian province went to 12 poor areas, including Quanzhou, Zhangzhou, and Nanjing (泉州,漳州,南靖) to deliver food and daily essentials to local residents. Winter distributions are an important event on the Tzu Chi calendar.
1558年，伊莉莎白登基，英國黃金時期，繼承瑪麗一世女王，成為都鐸王朝第五位君主，帶領英格蘭成為歐洲最強大富有的國家，文化也達到巔峰，劇作家莎士比亞也在這段期間大量創作，她在位四十五年，卻終生未婚沒有子嗣，過世之後，都鐸王朝也隨之結束。
1869年，蘇伊士運河通航，世界海運門戶遠在埃及第十二王朝就存在，歷經多次重建，直到1858年，成立蘇伊士運河公司，由埃及苦力穿越沙漠挖掘，十一年後的這天通航，全長約163公里，是全球最大的無船閘運河，讓歐亞大陸南北雙向通行，每年約有2萬5千艘船隻通航，佔世界海運貿易的百分之14。
1988年，廢止眼角膜條例，器官移植新里程，自從台灣公布眼角膜移植條例以來，卻造成其它器官移植，因為沒有法律依據而不合法，因此，台灣在1987年公布，人體器官移植條例，1988年這天再由立法院廢止眼角膜移植條例，讓更多生命因為器官移植而重生。
2007年，人道援助辛巴威，慈濟首次發放，自從南非慈濟志工這個月初來到辛巴威，在當地台商的陪同下，參訪當地小學、安養院、醫院以及孤兒院，目賭了貧困與饑荒的現況，而在這天展開首次援助行動，致贈玉米粉、糖、鹽、沙拉油等食物。
2008年寒冬送情，慈濟總動員，2007年歲末，全台慈濟志工從這天起，走訪平常定期關心的社福機構與安養院，為長輩或身心障礙者送上健康食品與祝福，隔年2008年，福建地區的慈濟志工也在這天前往泉州、漳州、南靖等十二個鄉鎮，致贈食物與日常用品給當地貧戶，這是慈濟志工每年年終的重要活動之一。

1.宏國秋市發放 Aid for 722 families in Choluteca
We start today”s show in Central America, where flooding brought down by heavy rains from a tropical depression, has affected over a million people, leaving hundreds of thousands displaced and in dire need of help. In Honduras, Tzu Chi”s disaster assessment team held its second major distribution of aid, on Sunday November 13, in the southern region of Choluteca city. The event went without a hitch, and a total of 722 householders collected much-needed supplies. At the distribution site, you could see many elderly residents - grandmothers and grandfathers - who had come to pick up their bags of food; while their younger relatives stayed at home instead of coming out to help. Local volunteers said, in Honduras, the young generation tend not to respect their elders. So, Mr. Zhang Hongcai from Tzu Chi made it his personal mission to look after the seniors.
一開始帶大家到中美洲，因為熱帶低氣壓的影響，帶來大雨量，影響一百萬人，許多人無家可歸，需要協助。在宏都拉斯，慈濟宏都拉斯賑災團，在11月13日周日，地點在秋市，舉行第二場大型發放，發放過程順利，總計共發放722戶，在秋市的這場發放，可以看見很多的老爺爺、老奶奶，拖著緩慢的步伐前來發放現場領取物資，而許多年輕人卻是在家裡，沒有一起來幫忙，志工說，在宏都拉斯，年輕人普遍不尊重家裡的老人，因此宏都拉斯志工張鴻才，在發放現場，總是特別照顧老人家。
2.泰慈濟 Shelter turned into spiritual center
From Honduras to Thailand, which has also been hard hit by flooding for several months. Although the water is gradually receding, many areas, including large parts of Bangkok, are still submerged in water. The government turned its Administrative Center, in the capital”s Laksi district, into an emergency shelter, and now Tzu Chi volunteers are doing their best to make it a spiritual training ground. Besides setting up a soup kitchen, the volunteers also arranged a series of activities, to help the younger people look at their parents in a different light.
從宏都拉斯轉到泰國，泰國深受水患之苦長達幾個月，雖然水位已經退了，許多地區包括曼谷，還陷在水患中，曼谷朗四區的泰國行政中心收容所，在慈濟志工關懷之下，已經變成一座道場，志工除了準備熱食，也設計了一連串的活動，讓年輕朋友以不同的角度看待父母。
3.菲火災本土 38 families displaced by fire
In the Filipino capital of Manila, a fire broke out in the Nangka district of Marikina City, burning down 11 homes and damaging 11 others. In total, 38 families were displaced. Among the victims were some Tzu Chi volunteers, who went to help their neighbors before attending to their own needs. Fellow volunteers soon arrived, on the very night of the blaze, with aid for everyone.
菲律賓馬利僅那囊卡里，一處區域發生火災，全毀與半毀的房屋各有11座，共有38戶家庭無家可歸，包括許多慈濟本地志工，雖然受災，但是他們更要把握行善的因緣，慈濟法親了解受災鄉親的需要，火災當天晚上就準備好生活物資，進行了發放。

4.美門診周年慶 Wilmington TC clinic 1 year old
After helping others for a year, the Tzu Chi community clinic in Wilmington, California, celebrated its first anniversary. Offering dental and acupuncture services, the center serves low-income residents, especially from the Hispanic community. In the past year, many patients have gone on to sign up as volunteers, and were a big help at the birthday celebration.

7.越南師訪慈濟 Vietnamese Buddhist nun visits
Dharma Master Zhongzhi(忠智), from Vietnam, had heard about Tzu Chi long before she came to Taiwan, to study at Sun Yat Sen University, in Kaohsiung. On Monday, along with some of her followers, the Buddhist nun visited the Kaohsiung Jing Si Hall, to learn some more about the organization.

8.魚鱗癬關懷 Battling rare disease
Some rare diseases can change the victim”s appearance, which often results in discrimination. Ichthyosis patients, who have scaly or flaky skin, can suffer from isolation, and live in the knowledge that there is no cure for their condition. Many people are too scared to approach them, for fear of catching the disease, which is actually non-infectious. So, at a recent celebration, for persons with disabilities in Taiwan, the organizers took the opportunity to raise awareness of ichthyosis.
罕見疾病病友，常常因為外貌與一般人不同，受到歧視或排擠，像是魚鱗癬症的患者，皮膚會龜裂、脫皮掉屑，目前無藥可醫，許多民眾不知道，總是害怕接近他們，並不知道魚鱗癬症不會傳染，因此今年的國際關懷身心障礙者日的活動，就把握機會向民眾宣導正確觀念。

10.科學的100堂課塑膠(2) Know your plastics
Taiwan used to be known for its cheap plastic products, but in May of this year, the country hit the international headlines over the plasticizer scandal, after toxic chemicals were found in a number of food products. However, we could be ingesting plasticizers - which are used to make plastic soft and flexible - by misusing the containers, cling film and other products that contain type-3 PVC. If heated, PVC can breakdown, and release chemicals, including any added plasticizers, into our food.
台灣號稱是塑膠王國，但是今年五月爆發塑化劑風波，發現食物中含有毒物質，但塑膠裡頭所含的塑化劑物質，這種塑化劑主要用途是讓塑膠變得柔軟，最容易添加在一種3號的PVC塑膠，像容器、保鮮膜、其他塑膠盒等等，受熱時會融解釋放出化學物質，讓食物產生塑化劑物質。

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.

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。

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.

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.

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.

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.
上星期三，11月9號，慈濟展開一連三天見舞金發放，而地點就在宮城縣多賀城、鹽灶市，總計幫助超過7500戶人家，而這一次所有工作全部由當地志工承擔，志工們到前一天都還在招兵買馬，雖然人手吃緊，但是發放順利進行，帶您來認識幾位當地居民，雖然都是受災戶，但是號召朋友一起幫助受難同胞。
4.印尼防災展覽 Disaster prevention expo in Jakarta
Disaster prevention has become increasingly pertinent given the frequency of natural disasters in the recent years.
