1. 奇爾美士發放
Since 2005, Tzu Chi volunteers in Argentina have done their best to care for those living in the slum of Quilmes. Recently volunteers heard that many young students have been unable to go to school - which started two weeks prior - because they were unable to afford the necessary stationery or shoes. Volunteers quickly moved to solve this problem and within three days were able to distribute the needed supplies.

阿根廷慈濟志工從2005年開始長期關懷奇爾美士貧民區，最近志工得知學校已開學二個星期，卻有同學因為沒有文具或鞋子，所以不敢上學，慈濟人在三天之內買齊了物資，送到學生手上。

2. 紐老人關懷

Also providing long term care, in New Zealand, Tzu Chings from Auckland re-visited the Lansdowne Rest Home to check on its residents. The youth volunteers danced with the seniors and sang songs to show their love and care.

也是一則長期關懷的報導，在紐西蘭奧克蘭的慈青，來到蘭斯丹老人院訪視，和長者一起跳舞還有歌唱，唱出對長者滿滿的愛。

《 靜思語 》

From birth till death, what”s important is to develop and cultivate virtuous activities in life.

從生到死的這段時日，重要的是立德與立行。

3. 一個城市的綠色旅程(8)綠色交通
In the latest in our series on Germany”s transformation from nuclear to renewable energy, we go back to Freiburg to visit the neighborhood of Vauban - which is the first car-free district in the world. An amazing 70 percent of the residents do not own a car, and the rest park their vehicles outside the community and use bicycles and public transportation to get around. Meanwhile, German cities are looking for green alternatives to gasoline powered transportation. Let”s find out more in today”s episode of ”A City”s Green Journey”.

今天一個城市的綠色旅程」德國邁向非核之路的報導中，帶各位到弗萊堡的一個社區Vauban，它是全世界第一個無車社區，這個社區有七成的居民沒有私家車，而擁有車的人就把車子停在社區外圍，再騎自行車或大眾運輸工具代步。另外，德國的城市也在尋找綠能，要取代石化燃料的交通工具，一起去看看今天「一個城市的綠色旅程」報導。

《 衲履足跡 》
On Cleansing the Earth

You reap what you sow. Tzu Chi”s founder said: karma is like a stream of air. You must learn to control your temper to cleanse the bottom of your heart. If you do that, you will get on with other people, and help balance climatic and seismic conditions. That is the way for humans to cleanse the earth.

主題：談淨土

開示：造何業因、成何業果，業如同一股氣。培養好脾氣，讓自己的心地成為淨土，與人相處和合，天氣、地氣平合，即能成就人間淨土。

4. 回家之路(11)謝謝台灣

After northeast Japan was devastated by a 9.0 magnitude earthquake and the subsequent tsunami on March 11 of 2011, Taiwan”s people immediately came together to lend a helping hand. That compassion and kindness was unforgettable for the disaster victims. To help convey their gratitude, a young Japanese man studying in Taiwan, together with his friends, decided to organize a Thank You Taiwan event. Here”s more.

2011年3月11日，日本東北發生九級強震與海嘯後，台灣人馬上跳出來獻上自己的愛心，這份愛與溫暖讓受災人民難以忘懷，為了表達出這份感恩，一位在台灣就讀的日本留學生，與朋友一起籌備 「謝謝台灣」的活動，一起來看看。
