1.米德蘭海灘發放

Following the devastation of Hurricane Sandy, New York Tzu Chi volunteers carried out yet another aid distribution at Miller Field of Staten Island. The Da Ai news team also seized the opportunity to visit Mid-land Beach, where the death toll was the highest for the entire New York region. Among the 40 known victims who died in the hurricane, 10 were found at Midland Beach, as the houses there were less than 100 meters from the beach. When the floods came, the whole community was submerged under water.

桑迪颶風災後，慈濟志工在紐約史坦頓島 米勒運動場，進行小型發放，同時，採訪團隊探訪史坦頓島的米德蘭海灘，這裡是這次桑迪過後，紐約死亡人數最多的地方，目前已知紐約40名罹難者中，有10人是來自這裡，居民們的房子距離海灘，不到一百公尺，大水一來就淹沒了整個社區。

2.聯合海灘勘災

Also helping Hurricane Sandy victims are volunteers from the Tzu Chi New Jersey Chapter, who went to the Union Beach on November 12th, to carry out a disaster survey and also to discuss the details of a relief distribution with local officials. In the small town of Union Beach, many residents lived close to the seaside, thus, 90 percent of the houses were flooded. Up until this day, many locals are still living in temporary shelters.

同樣在協助災民的還有，新澤西的慈濟人，在11月12日深入災區，聯合海灘小鎮進行勘災，並與當地官員商討發放事宜，在這個小鎮，居民都住在海邊，所以有九成的房子淹水，現在還有許多人，被迫住在收容所裡。

3.美市長勘災

Situated at the south end of the state of New Jersey, South Toms River is a coastal city home to some 4,000 people, and it was severely flooded when Hurricane Sandy struck. Following the disaster, the mayor surveyed the local community to assess the damage. Let`s take a look.

在新澤西南部的南湯姆斯河市，這個人口數四千人的濱海小鎮，在風災時，遭到海水淹沒重創，災後，市長回到當地勘災，讓我們一起來看看。

4.美西募款併
While the volunteers on the east coast of the United States, have taken to the front line, to continue with disaster surveys and distributions in the worst-hit areas, their counterparts on the west coast have taken to the streets, canvassing for donations from the public in California, San Diego, Seattle and Las Vegas.

美國東岸的慈濟志工，走在前線到災區發放，而西岸的慈濟志工，則是在加州、聖地牙哥、西雅圖、拉斯維加斯。

啟動街頭募款行動

《 靜思語 》

Wisdom is embracing the world and all living beings with a loving heart, a broad mind, and a perspective as boundless as the sky and ocean.

智慧，是心寬念純、海闊天空，用愛擁抱大地蒼生。

5.唯醫不變(2)人醫鄭俊良

As we continue with our series on Taiwan`s doctors, today, we meet Dr. Zheng Junliang(鄭俊良), who is currently the director of the Changbin(長濱) Township Public Health Center. Dr. Zheng has spent the last 25 years working on behalf of residents, living in some of Taiwan`s most remote regions. For his contribution over the years, Dr. Zheng was awarded this year`s Medical Devotion Award, of which his father, 20 years ago was also a recipient. Like father, like son is how one could best describe this family, that has been caring for the poor, sick and needy for many decades.

唯醫不變專題，今天帶您認識 人醫「鄭俊良」，目前是台東長濱鄉衛生所主任，過去25年鄭醫師在台灣，最偏遠的地區服務，幾年來的貢獻後，鄭醫師獲頒醫療奉獻獎，二十年前，他的父親也得此殊榮，可謂是虎父無犬子，他們父子倆數十年來，照顧貧病弱勢的族群。

《 衲履足跡 》談慈悲喜捨 On Kindness, compassion, joy & selfless giving

The more suffering there is in this world, the more Bodhisattvas are needed to save others. They must rise up to the challenges of the times with kindness, compassion, joy and selfless giving. Only with an open mind can you overcome all obstacles and alleviate suffering.

世間苦難多，愈需要人間菩薩，菩薩應該在此大時代雲湧而出；只要啟發無私助人的慈、悲、喜、捨四無量心，就能以開闊的心胸為人間造福，克服萬難救拔苦難人。

6.愛的米其林(2)無障餐廳訪查

Recently, a group of teachers and students, at the National Chiao Tung(交通) University designed a smartphone application, to help those who suffer from impairments, get around in Taipei. Let`s meet the volunteers who are helping to test out the road conditions and restaurants, for the benefit of all end-users.

最近，交通大學的師生們，設計一個無障礙指南的手機應用程式，我們來認識這群義工特派員，為了使用者的方便，在餐廳進行訪查。

7.360修腳踏車

In today`s feature reports on Taiwan`s fading trades, we meet bicycle repairman, Chang Jianguo(常建國), a retired military officer who used to repair aircrafts. Apart from the fact that his father made a living through repairing bicycles, Chang is also a man who cherishes all resources, thus, he decided to take on the family baton and helps give old bicycles a second lease of life.

在今天的真情臉譜，我們來認識一位單車維修師傅，常建國 原本是空軍修復士官長，除了因為爸爸就是靠著修腳踏車，養大他們兄弟姊妹，還有就是愛惜物命的觀念，所以現在他退役後，傳承爸爸的事業，並給舊腳踏車新生命。

We go to China`s Fujian(福建) Province at the end of our program today, and join Tzu Chi volunteers in Xiamen(廈門), as they carry out their monthly recycling day. After a year`s promotion of conservation work in the local community, residents are all familiar with Tzu Chi, and brought out their garbage for the volunteers. We will leave you with these images. Thank you for tuning in. Goodbye.

節目的最後，我們來到中國的福建，跟著廈門慈濟志工，參與他們每個月的回收活動，在一年的環保理念推廣下，當地居民都認識了慈濟，都會將回收物拿出來給志工，讓我們一起來看看，感恩收看，再會。(2012.11.15)
