At stake are some $5000 worth of schol-arship cash awards and gifts, together with the titles of Miss Asia Carolinas 2013, MAC, 1st Runner Up, MAC, 2nd Runner up, Miss Talent, Miss Congeniali-ty ( voted by the participants themselves), Miss Photogenic ( via Facebook and judges) and a new category, Miss Friend-ship( to foster closer ties among the Asian communities). As always, a Panel of all non Asian Judges (to avoid bias) will make the se-lection of winners via a validated score-card. The panel includes some NC certi-fied pageant judges and community lumi-naries. Do come to the Festival early, and you can photograph/video the MAC beau-ties in their colorful national dresses, or pose with them, while they " walkabout" the Asian Festival grounds, starting at the Dragon Boat Races by Lake Norman at 9 am, then the Country Cultural Booths & other vendor booths at 9: 30 am, and end-ing at the stage area for their Presentation with their Parents & Escorts at 10 am.

Asian history spans thousands of years and its culture is rich and diverse. The CAACC strives to provide business op-portunities and to promote business actiAvities through cultural events, such as the annual Asian Festival & Dragon Boat Races each spring and Asian celebrations in the Fall that display our resources and share with you our ethnic qualities.

Business showcase 2013
This year Business showcase event took place on Wednesday, March 20, 2013 at The Park Expo & Conference Center, in Charlotte. Asian Chamber of Commerce was well represented, and according to Dr. Nini Bautista, Founder & Chairman Miss Asia Carolinas, “we were nicely located too....alongside the stage this time...,facing all the booths.” Business Showcase is the only trade show produced by the Charlotte Chamber of Commerce.
The 13th annual Business Showcase was a joint collaboration with Greater Hotel and Tourism Alliance held at the Park and Expo Conference Center. With 150 vendor booths, over 1100 attendees, and the best in B2B networking- Business Showcase had the city and social media buzzing! The event’s purpose brought a variety of businesses and organizations under one roof. With diversity at its best, the show-case provided a large opportunity to net-work, discover opportunities and collabo-rations in our area. The Charlotte region is a hub of activity. Visions are being created. Plans are being implemented. People are working togeth-er to accomplish goals that will preserve Charlotte as a great place to live and do business. Manufacturing, healthcare and the en-ergy industry are key components of the Charlotte business community. Charlotte is known for being a can-do town. The pub-lic and private sectors have come together
numerous times to work toward what is best for Charlotte. That partnership has helped build a strong sense of community.The Charlotte-Metro region is home to 273 Fortune 500 Companies, seven of which are headquartered in Mecklenburg County. As explained by the Chamber of Com-merce” historically, Charlotte has been perceived as a textile center and more re-cently a banking center. While Charlotte is justifiably proud of the industries with which it has been linked over the years, narrow characterizations sell this city’s economy short. Charlotte enjoys a vibrant, balanced economy that encompasses many sectors, as well as companies that range in size from multinational to microbusiness. That variety helps make Charlotte’s econ-omy one of the healthiest and strongest in the nation. Diverse business interests shel-ter the city from problems that can result from slowdowns in certain sectors, corpo-rate mergers and buyouts, plant closures and other economic challenges. The solid base also facilitates exceptionally strong growth during economic upswings. While the economy’s strength is certainly a plus, companies considering a relocation to Charlotte will find other advantages in this broad-based economy. For example, suppliers and services are abundant and convenient. Employers’ costs for wages, benefits and labor overhead, such as work-er’s compensation, unemployment and health insurance coverage, are significant-ly lower than in other regions. And Char-lotte-Mecklenburg offers an unusually rich quality of life, with ample opportunity for companies and executives who wish to actively participate in making this city an even better place to live and work. ■
As Spring is defiantly trying to shake off the cold winds and linger-ing winter (brrr) lows, the Filipino American Community of the Caro-linas (FACC) has lined up several events to welcome Spring. The first one is on Saturday, April 13, 2013 from 10 am to 6 pm, the Spring Fling, a picnic to be held at the Reedy Creek Park, 2900 Rocky River Road near the University area( See flyer in AH March).

Kids will have fun and games ,bal-loons & party favors, while for the parents, there will be dances, raffles and auction. For every one there will be entertainment numbers con-sisting of cultural presentations. Everybody is requested to bring canned goods to be donated to the Second Harvest Bank of Metrolina, "Together we CAN fight Hunger,..." For more info, contact Ms Sony Krupp [email protected]. An avid perennial supporter of the Asian Chamber and the Asian
Festival, on May 4th, the FACC will put up a Country Cultural Booth, and will have a separate stall to sell Filipiniana crafts, a food booth offering typical Filipino cui-sine, a Dragon Boat team to com-pete in the races, and a participant of the Miss Asia Carolinas. A big chunk of the Filipino community will be on hand to support all these activities, as it has done so over the years, to help celebrate the Asian American cultural heritage month of May in unison with the rest of the Asians. For details please email President Florami Lee [email protected] As a heads up, on Saturday, May 11, from 3 to 5 pm, the mostly Catholic Filipino community will celebrate one of the most popular and widely celebrated festivals, the Flores de Mayo or Mayflower Fes-tival, in honor of the Virgin Mary. It is also known as the Santacruzan , in commemoration of the find-ing of the Holy Cross by St, Helene (Reina Elena), mother of Emperor Constantine(Rey Constantino).It will be held at the St Matthews Par-ish Church / Gym, 8015 Ballan-tyne Commons PKWay, Charlotte.

April 2013 (4) The AsiAn herAld International Organizations Meeting
The Charlotte International Cabinet hosts several events throughout the year. On March 18, CIC hosted the Inter-national Organizations Meeting. This open forum allows representatives from Charlotte's international organizations to brainstorm on the issues that shape our community as a whole. The meeting is held to help the Mayor and City Council know what topics are of concern to Charlotte's international community. The Mayor typically opens the forum with a short address and then attendees are asked to share their con-cerns and ideas to address these issues. This meeting allows the City to field any issues that the international commu-nity may be facing before they become major problems. It also offers the City a unique perspective on issues facing ev-ery resident, as these particular commu-nity leaders bring best practices and new ideas to the table from all over the world. Among the topics were Health, Educa-
tion, Public Safety, Small Busi-ness, Transportation, and Immi-gration. Alexis Gordon, the program Director at CIC, opened the event, and informed about the discussion groups, so each par-ticipant will represent and be part of the collaborative effort in pinpointing problems and so-lutions for the specific field of
inters or expertise. Mayor Anthony Foxx greeted the par-ticipants, and expressed the need for this event, the importance for the future development to follow the right direc-tion, and the implication it has in the strategies that have to be adopted. From education to small business and job cre-ation, the imput offered by the informa-tion produced is critical. It will consist as base for adaptive-planning, according to the dynamic and diverse community in Charlotte and surrounding areas. As part of the workshop, the event fo-cused on the nonprofit sector. Alyssa Federico, Vice President of Finance at Foundation for The Carolinas, held a presentation about the purpose and im-plications that come with being a non-profit organization in NC, and becoming a 501c IRS recognized entity. As stated in CCF report “In the face of an eco-nomic crisis unparalleled since the Great Depression, the Charlotte community saw challenges, but also opportunities. In September 2009, a coordinated com-munity effort that included input from corporate executives, foundation leaders, philanthropists, nonprofit organizations, as well as government and civic repre-sentatives culminated in the establish-ment of the Community Catalyst Fund (CCF).1 CCF is an ongoing initiative
that is dedicated to providing the non-profit sector with support for strategic transformations, including innovative service models, collaborations, partner-ships and mergers. The intention of the Catalyst program is to enable nonprofit organizations to reposition themselves to meet a future characterized by increased demands for services and diminished funding… The nonprofit sector in partic-ular experienced a remarkable increase in demand for services, as well as a con-current and significant drop in revenues as foundation giving and corporate phi-lanthropy declined, governmental bud-
Hosted by Charlotte International Cabinet
gets were drastically cut, and individual donors tightened their belts.” The nonprofit sector is represented by wealth of charitable organizations serv-ing and leading our community. Com-munity’s needs and opportunities change timely, so nonprofit organizations have emerged and grown in large numbers to address these issues head-on. Many seek help with capacity and sustainability—the kind of support needed to achieve missions. Whether an organization is emerging or has deep roots in the region, Carolina Foundation can help and sim-plify the work. ■

Interested in a career in Real Estate? Let’s Talk About It!
Twenty-four students and two teach-ers descended on Charlotte from Thurs-day, March 21 through Sunday, March 24. The purpose?..... To reconnect with South and West Mecklenburg High School stu-dents who had visited these same students in Japan last summer 2012; and to give a thoughtful presentation about Japan’s “Road to Recovery: Creating Bonds.” This on-going relationship is formally called the “Kizuna Project” and is a two-year commemoration of the Great East Ja-pan Earthquake that happened on March 11, 2011. Kizuna means… Bonds of Friend-ship. The 1st phase was for MACS stu-dents to visit the areas that were affected by the earthquake and while there learned safety and prevention skills for how to en-dure and survive during a natural disaster. The 2nd phase was to invite these Japanese students from those affected areas to Char-lotte to learn more about their experiences during and after the disaster. On Saturday, March 23 the public was invited to partici-pate in this presentation, and Room 121 in the Fretwell Building, was fi lled to capac-ity. A warm welcome was offered by the Japanese Consulate-General from Atlanta, Ms. Midori Yamamitsu, who “thanked Charlotte for overwhelming compassion” in supporting the victims of the tsunami. She stated that there were 1,000 Japanese living in North & South Carolina. Akio Shioiri, head of the Japan Association in Charlotte, also welcomed the group. Eric Ward, CMS West Mecklenburg Prin-cipal, offered remarks with focus on the “bond” that had been created by his stu-dents with those from Japan and how these friendships would connect the world of the future. The Japanese students showed slides of the tsunami and clear explanations of what actually happens when an earthquake takes
place with the ensuing aftermath. Some of the facts offered were: there are 300 earth quakes every day in Japan;the center of the earthquake on March 11, 2011 was off the island of Miyagi; it struck at 14.46 with a seismic intensity of 7 and a magnitude of 9. Twenty thousand people were killed. The nuclear power plant that was compromised was in Fukushima prefecture and over 11 thousand people were evacuated. So far 26 million tons of rubble has been removed, which is the equivalent of 260,000 blue whales. The rubble was so contaminated with radiation that most people refused to clean up, causing much delay. Only 46% of the rubble had been cleared by January 31, 2013 and the remaining 54% is slated to be cleared by March 2014. There is much abnormal growth in the plants grown in the region due to the ground water and soil con-taminates. There are 330,000 people now living in makeshift housing and less than 25% of schools have been rebuilt. The limit any-one can live in the makeshift housing is 2 years, and those 2 years are now up, but still there is no other housing for these displaced people to live. Japan received aid and as-sistance form 142 countries and territories, and 39 international organizations who have contributed over $2 billionin support. Much has been done, but there is still much to do. While in the area, the Japanese students visited South & West Mecklenburg High Schools, enjoyed a fi eld trip to the Biltmore Estate with their host students, and gave the presentation at UNCC, before moving on to Seattle, WA. The event sponsors were the Japan Foundation; UNCC; Japanese Teach-ers Association in Charlotte; with support from the Japanese Association in Charlotte and Charlotte Mecklenburg Schools. Asian inspired foods were served at a reception af-terwards. Local Charlotte attendees includ-ed: Weimin and Mari Yuan; Santoshi and Miyake Wantanabe; Robert and ChiePetrus-ka with daughter Christy; and Andrea Lee. For more information or how to help, please contact Consulate-General Midori Yamamitsu, [email protected] / 404-926-3004 or Akio [email protected] / 704-548-7777. ■

Immigrant’s healthcare
According to a new report released by the National Alliance on Mental Health, Asian American teenage girls have the highest rate of depressive symptoms of any racial, ethnic or gender group. From the federal reports, in Charlotte, some residents with the health mental problems where living in conditions that were not decent, safer or sanitary. The county contracted with Open Door to provide housing for clients in the Federal Shelter Plus Care Program. HUD has given the county about $4 millions to run Shelter Care since 2008. Unfortunately, taxpayers did not see their money making much difference and, as county commissioners chair Jennifer Roberts stated, the community deserves better servic-es. At the Refugee Health the Services Avail-able are: Health exams/screening and Re-ferral for follow-up medical care. Client Eligibility: Only persons who have been processed through the United States Depart-ment of Immigration and Naturalization, and granted offi cial status as a Refugee, Parolee or Asylee and are relocating to Mecklenburg County are eligible for this service. Even with Medicaid, as the only insurance plan available to cover immigrants, the family doctor/patient’s primary-care physician is not a choice. To top the undesired situation, the clinic is selected according to the zip code of the residency of the patient. In Charlotte, most of them live in 28205 and 20212 zip code area, which include only few clinics ac-cepting the low-paying clients. Many orga-nizations and healthcare providers are com-peting for funds, making the matter worse for the immigrants. “As refugees they get 8 months of Medicaid. After that, the mother may still qualify based on the age of her chil-dren and family income. The father, if work-ing, will not be eligible. Refugees can utilize the Work First Program and receive Medicaid only if they have dependent children. Single adults do not qualify (MHA).” A new community-based study by UC Davis researchers has found that children
with developmental disabilities in Southeast-Asian-American families face signifi cant obstacles to receiving intervention services. Barriers include lack of accurate information, language diffi culties, lack of trust and limited outreach. Entitled “Understanding Develop-mental Disabilities in Families of Southeast Asian Origin,” the study is the fi rst to ex-amine the perceptions of families of Hmong and Mien children with disabilities as well as the barriers to service. "We do not have Hmong words for all the diagnoses, no word for Down’s syndrome … someone has to take the time to help make the understanding,” one male Hmong participant said. For Mental Health Association of Central Carolinas and FNHealthAssist organization reducing health disparities in underserved and underrepresented populations, along with promoting early identifi cation and interven-tion for children with developmental dis-abilities are primary goals. “Since 1933, the Mental Health Association of Central Caro-linas (MHA) has been the voice of hope for persons affected by mental illness. Though the organization's name has changed over the years, also coverage has widened to in-clude Mecklenburg and Cabarrus Counties, our focus of advocacy and education has not altered.” Both organizations were represent-ed at the recent International Organizations Meeting, hosted each year by Charlotte In-ternational Cabinet .This open forum allows members from Charlotte's international or-ganizations to brainstorm on the issues that shape our community as a whole. “The larg-est group of refugees and aslyees in our re-gion are the Montagnards. Groups currently arriving and being resettled locally are Bhuta-nese and Burmese”, said MHA Board Mem-ber Rogina Scott-Franklin on Multicultural Advocacy in a video. At a following meeting with representative from organizations, school and university psy-chologists, practitioners and physicians, a new plan of collaboration took shape. The need is great and urgent. Many diseases can be prevent-ed if more attention is paid to the mental-wellbe-ing, depressions, anxiety and others causing dis-turbing problems, some with an tragic outcome ( as suicide).

“Who is Barack Obama”- Available in All Asian Languages
In “Who is Barack Obama?” (ISBN 1475297785), Okyere Bonna creates an in-formative and easy-to-read guide that dis-cusses Barack Obama’s political career as president of the United States. He details the process that awarded Barack Obama the 2008 presidential election, while enlighten-ing readers to the man behind the politics The author visited Asian Herald and told the story behind the book, his rewarding ex-perience as educator, and personal life. Okyere Bonna is a naturalized citizen of the United States who was born in Ghana. He has earned a master’s in business and science education from the Franciscan Uni-versity of Steubenville in Ohio. His time in
Ghana included serving as an SRC Secretary and Executive Committee member of the NationalUnion of Ghana Students from 1989 through 1990. Bonna has taught students in both public and privateschool systems in North Carolina and New York, and he has been involved with many books including “Barack Obama: Road to the White House,” “American Presidents and the Making of the Presidency” and “A New Agenda for Gha-na”. He is married and has two children. The main purpose of Bonna’s book is to explain the person behind the presiden-cy. Bonna covers Obama’s international pedigree and attempts to sift through the
enormous amount of speculation and ru-mors to present an honest representation of America’s 44th president. He also compares Obama to past presidents in an attempt to answer whether or not Obama has been sin-gled out for reasons outside of the political spectrum. “My main inspiration was to create a book that would either justify or stop the allega-tions brought forth against our president,” Bonna says. “As a teacher and a citizen of our dear country, I feel it is my civic respon-sibility to educate my students by providing them with facts, not tales, when it comes to choosing our president. “Who is Barack Obama?” also discusses Obama’s successful road to the White House and the nuances of the 2008 election.Written in a simplistic tone that allows read-ers as young as a third grader to understand the material, “Who is Barack Obama?” is a sequel to Bonna’s previously released book, “Barack Obama, the Road to the White House.” Between the two titles, readers
will get to know not only the person that is Barack Obama but also the political pro-cess that allowed him to be the fi rst African American president in United States History. “Both ‘Who is Barack Obama?’ and my previous work were designed to rouse the appetite for knowledge, and let the pub-lic know the truth with regards to President Obama,” says Bonna. “Who is Barack Obama?” is available to our readers for less than $10.00 online at http://www.amazon.com/Barack-Obama-Korean-Translation-Edition; other transla-tions include Chinese, Japanese, Russian, Dutch, French and more. ■

Ace Medical Weight Loss was founded in 2006 by doctors Myo Sandar Nwe and Sandeep S Grewal, MD MSBoard Certifi ed in Internal Medicine, to serve Rock Hill, SC and the surrounding areas. The SlimPlate System was co-de-signed by both Ace Medical Weight Loss Center founders. Myo Sandar New is a design-engineer that made the Slim Plate System IPhibe app possible. The Android version is expected soon. This system is designed by weight-loss doctors, who understand why deprivation diets fail. The complete SlimPlate Sys-tem is now available in North and South Carolina. This complete system of por-tion control tools is designed so that the user never has to count calories; instead it teaches users how to portion their plates for weight loss. Now, users have the free-dom to choose their own food and their own recipes while losing weight. Dr. Myo M Nwe recently state“We’ve designed this system to be a long term weight loss solution. Unlike other diets, the SlimPlate System is intended to make sure you’re losing fat, not muscle. This four phase weight loss plan is planned to cause users to lose weight without giving up most of their favorite food, and then maintain their weight by portioning their plates in a healthy way. We’ve made this product so easy to use, by simply color coding portions of the plates for all four phases. Remember eating less is not a so-lution to lose weight, but eating right is.” - Dr. Myo M Nwe Both the SlimPlate system and the
SlimPlate iPhone app are available now. It features the SlimPlate meals tips for din-ing out and homemade meals, reminders for your meal schedule and the signature high intensity cross training exercise vid-eo. By taking a photo of what is on your plate, the information can be shared with the weight-loss doctor and to your fellow support group. They can send feedback, encouragements for proper eating habits, and congrats for each mile stone. Plus it is a free app, how cool is that! According to Myo M Nwe, MD Board Certifi ed in Internal Medicine; Board Cer-tifi ed in Bariatric Medicine, basics life style changes anyone should adopt are regular exercise, drink plenty of water, count calories consumption and limit it, avoid nervous eating and frequent snacks. At the same time it is essential to main-tain regular interval eating habits with balanced meal. Daily calorie consumption for an average person is 1600 to 2200 cal-ories depend on the one’s activity and me-tabolism. In order to reduce body weight, one should not only consume fewer calo-ries than daily requirement but also need to burn the extra storage calories in body.The habit of counting calorie consump-tion is the key to long term success of staying lean and fi t and still enjoying variety of food. Some may not be aware that limiting drinking of regular soda, cof-fee, and tea alone may shed few pounds each week. Decreasing portions of each meal, drinking a glass of water prior to any meal, replacing high calorie snacks, avoiding haste-eating habit may help limit the excessive intake of the calorie. As this is the lifetime process and one should take steps at gradual pace to avoid re-bound binge eating and excessive weight gain.Burning excess calories is another way to achieve successful weight maintenance. How do we burn calories? Any physical

activity would do it. Running, jogging, swimming, water aerobics, walking, ten-nis, etc are great. Water aerobics is great for the arthritic patient. Even daily activi-ty at home, walking upstairs, getting up to get things, working in the backyard, walk-ing in the mall etc. burn extra calories and keep you in constant active mode. Making these a habit will yield long term results. Remember adopting healthy life-style is a habit you will need for life. As Dr New explained “The weight loss efforts need a strong commitment. The support from family and friends to indi-viduals fi ghting obesity is very important. Understanding the issue, we create this
mobile app. The app will serve as a secret friend, who will be there to motivate peo-ple, every step of their weight loss efforts. It reminds them to eat regularly, at the scheduled meal times; it suggests what different food to eat, even at their favorite fast food parlor or fancy restaurant. It will guide people to enjoy food, without feel-ing guilty. The certifi ed fi tness trainer is right at your fi nger tip at your convenient time and place, it will train you to exercise, will lead you from the beginner to ad-vance and even to challenge level exer-cise. Surely it will become your pal, and I will let you choose a name for it.” ■

LET’S TALK - FINANCIAL MAKEOVERSPresented by Prudential
On March 14, Prudential presented a fi-nancial-makeover interactive event at the Asian Library. The hostess was Amira Issa, a Prudential Financial Professional Associ-ate. The evening started with wine tasting, by The Sorting Table on 7th, creating a relax-ing and unwinding atmosphere. The social-izing time gave way to conversations, while Josh, the proud owner and wine connoisseur introduced the regions from which the bot-tles came from. He also presented various types of food, and they relations with wine. Some dishes are cooked with.. , some are served with; but no matter what is the ap-proach, recipes or presentation, we always have to use a good wine …pared with the appropriate meal. To keep in mind that Ital-ian wines are made for Italian food. The two go hand in hand, and like a good mar-riage both are typically enhanced by the other. According to some wine connoisseurs, “there is no other country on earth with a wine culture like that of Italy. There are over 2000 indigenous varieties (native grapes) spread throughout this beautiful country. Each of Italy's 20 regions is home to a unique viticultural industry, from the cool climates in the northeast such as Alto
Adige and Friuli to the warm, sunny zones of the south such as Campania, Puglia and Sicily. Be it delicious whites with vibrant acidity or powerful reds that age for de-cades, Italian wines present every color in the rainbow, viticulturally speaking!”While millions of wine drinkers love Italian wines, the subject can be a bit overwhelm-ing and somewhat confusing, so most peo-ple need a guide to help them understand the difference between a Valpolicella and a Valtellina. From Sangiovese to Trebbiano and the wide viticultural variations that lie in be-tween, navigating the wine shop shelves to find an Italian wine that will complement Friday night lasagna can be a fun-filled ex-perience - if you are armed with a little Ital-ian wine knowledge. Let Josh be your guide. But when it come to finances,... turn to Amira. Within an hour she had the purpose of the evening on the table. The partici-pants, women with various background and ethnicity, had an opportunity to talk, share experiences and learn how to get the most out of their finances. From securing pro-tection for loved ones to paying for higher education to planning for retirement, this exciting event was not to be missed!
In today society, achieving financial security is one of the most important goals a woman needs pursue. Taking charge of one’s fi-nancial planning is an es-sential choice to make. As many financial plan-ners will tell “financial security is something that most women spend a lot of
time worrying about. Unfortunately, when it comes to actually investing, many women procrastinate. Perhaps overwhelmed by the alternatives, they do the simple thing: noth-ing. A woman’s need for financial security is no different from a man’s. Achieving it is another story. In the past, married women could depend upon a husband’s pension or financial ability, but today women are marrying later or not at all. Most women work and share the financial responsibility and decision making. Women tend to in-
vest more cautiously, which may mean less profitably. Fortunately, the future is looking brighter. Women recognize that investing plays a decisive role in meeting financial goals. Having knowledge and competent advisors, women are getting the help they need, growing more confident about mak-ing smart investment decisions. The good news is women are and can be very compe-tent with their finances for themselves, their children, and the charities they may sup-port. The best way to ensure that you will have the money you will need later is to start put-ting your finances in order today.” Best advice: take it slowly, learn a little bit at a time and don’t worry too much. Just start. ■

The Diversity Forum presents DandapaniThe Diversity Forum took place Thursday, March 28, at Harris Conference Center in Charlotte -CPCC Campus.Its Vision states “we believe diversity will give our nation
a competitive advantage in the new global economy where ideas, concepts, knowledge and people have become a company's most important assets.” The Mission is to provide a diversity and inclusion platform that connects business leaders through innovation. The main objectives are Workplace Diversity and Inclusion. Also, it provides innovative ideas on the recruitment, hiring, and retention of a diverse workforce. The Diversity Forum is looking to offer the best practices platform of inclusion as a mod-el for increasing individual and/or corporate leadership and development, and to deliver relevant forums by providing meaningful top-ics resulting in participation growth. It deliv-ers an environment encouraging learning. Diversity-Sustainable impact. What sustain-ability is, what its goals should be, and how these goals are to be achieved are all open to
interpretation. For many environmentalists 'sustainable development' is an oxymoron - as development seems to entail environmental degradation. A universally accepted definition of sustain-ability remains elusive because it needs to be factual and scientific, a clear statement of a specific “destination”. According to some theories, the simple definition "sustainability is improving the quality of human life while living within the carrying capacity of support-ing eco-systems", though vague, conveys the idea of sustainability having quantifiable lim-its. But sustainability is also a call to action, a task in progress or “journey” and therefore a political process, so some definitions set out common goals and values. The Earth Char-ter speaks of “a sustainable global society founded on respect for nature, universal hu-man rights, economic justice, and a culture of peace.”Just to make it more complicated, the word sustainability is applied not only to hu-man sustainability on Earth, but to many situ-ations and contexts over many scales of space
and time, from small local ones to the global balance of production and consumption. It implies responsible and proactive decision-making and innovation that minimizes nega-tive impact and maintains balance between social, environmental, and economic growth to ensure a desirable planet for all species now and in the future. It can also just refer to a future intention." So who is at the top of all diversity impact? The Diversity Forum Chairman is no other then Eric Watson, by now a familiar face to the Asian Community. His commitment to make a difference and leave a foot print to follow brought us the event at CPCC, and the speaker Dandapani. Hindu priest and meditation teacher, Danda-pani is of Sri Lankan descent. Raised in Aus-tralia, he graduated with a degree in Electrical Engineering. Deeply inspired by his family's spiritual traditions, Dandapani had firm foun-dations upon which, at the age of twenty-three, he chose to live as a monk. Thus he followed his guru, Satguru Sivaya Subramu-
niyaswami to Kauai's Hindu Monastery in Hawaii. After being initiated as a monk by his Satguru, Dandapani studied a wide variety of Hindu teachings that focused on meditation, yoga and spiritual philosophy as keys to un-folding his own and others' deepest potential through personal self effort. In 2008, Dandapani's monastic vows expired and he chose to venture out on his own after living as a monk for ten years. Dandapani currently lives in New York City. He travels frequently, sharing the teachings of his guru in workshops and spiritual adventures in the US and around the world working with indi-viduals, groups and organizations. Dandapani recognises the ongoing, develop-mental nature of a person's spiritual journey. He creates warm, respectful and fun places of exploration and training, and offers assistance to individuals, groups and organizations in spiritual and ethical development. Dandapani commenced the 2013 year with The Diversity Forum in Charlotte. Being pre-sented with different notions of the monk-hood, meditation, and philosophy, the partici-pants were ready to research a different way of thinking, reacting, and handling situations within their business and life. Believing that these teachings are as rel-evant today as they were in ancient times, Dandapani is teaching us to understand ourselves and therefore understand others through these highly practical spiritual guide-lines. ■

Networking & Community Outreach Luncheon Presented by SEAC
March 28, Networking Luncheon with ALN & SEAC @ Enso
NAAAP, ALN (Asian Leadership Net-work), and SEAC (Southeast Asian Coali-tion) held a networking luncheon at Enso. Attendees had the opportunity to mingle, and learn about SEAC’s community out-reach efforts, and about ways to get in-volved.The National Association of Asian American Professionals is a non-profit professional or-ganization that promotes the career advance-ment and leadership development of Asian American professionals in all fields through networking, respecting Asian multicultural-ism, and supporting diversity and commu-nity service. SEAC is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organiza-tion aimed at increasing community em-powerment in the growing Southeast Asian American community of the Carolinas. SEAC provides naturalization services, and conducts several service projects throughout the year. SEAC Director Cat Bao Le attend-ed the luncheon, and introduced Thanh-Thu Luong , Director of Programs, and SEAC’s intern, Polly. SEAC provide programming in three main content areas:Youth Empowerment Civic EngagementWorkforce Health and Sustainability“Our first youth donations- Thanks to our neighborhood supermarket Giant Penny, for providing our youth snacks for the next 6 months!”
“That's SEAC intern Polly presenting our youth program at UNC Charlotte ASA!” SEAC Youth Building Today!
Youth Empowerment-About The importance of youth programs is tre-mendous; Bob Meyer, a community educa-tion director stated recently in an interview “the opportunities for our area youth can be improved-Enhancing the quality of existing youth programs and increasing the number of programs available will involve all ele-ments of our community. Whether it is an artist coming into an after school program to teach kids pottery or if it is a policeman playing football with 3rd graders on the field after school, the mission is all the same: the adults in our community are connecting with the children.., and they are working to pro-vide our children with the best experience in life”. An example of this improvement would be an organization like the FN Health Assist donating school/craft supply (http://fnhealthassist.org/1/archives/09-2012/1.html; another example would be a local en-trepreneur sharing his passion of the game of soccer with high school students. The op-portunities to create a wonderful world of experiences for our youth are endless when many hands are put to the plow.
Youth/Adult Partnerships Advocates for Youth consider that “the es-sence of youth involvement is a partnership between adults and young people. Effective youth/adult partnerships work toward solv-ing community problems. Working partner-ships also acknowledge the contributions of all participants - youth and adults. In theory, creating such partnerships sounds good and makes a lot of sense, but putting such partnerships into practice is not always easy. Power dynamics, usually rooted in cul-tural norms, may make it difficult for young people and adults to feel comfortable work-
ing together. Years of formal instruction in school often teach young people to expect answers from adults. Some youth expect their own ideas to be largely ignored, derid-ed, or vetoed. Adults frequently underesti-mate the knowledge and creativity of young people. Adults are also accustomed to mak-ing decisions without input from youth, even when youth are directly affected by those decisions. Therefore, joint efforts toward solving problems can be difficult, requiring deliberate effort on the part of both adults and young people”.
Making Youth Involvement WorkOrganizations like SEAC and AY already indentified that “to make youth involve-ment work, good intentions are not enough. Adults who endorse the concept of youth/adult partnerships must be willing to iden-tify and alter the organizational environment where institutional barriers can be especially significant. Here we are few examples: Hours for Meetings and Work—some
youth organization’s hours of operation usu-ally coincide with times when young people are at school or work. To engage youth, pro-gram planners must find nontraditional times at which to hold important meetings. Of-ten, the conflict between adults' and youth's schedules can be difficult to overcome. However, compromise is necessary if an organization is to enjoy genuine youth in-volvement. For adults, this may mean hold-ing meetings in the late afternoon or evening or on weekends. For youth, this may mean using the school community service hours to attend daytime meetings.Transportation—Many young people do not have personal vehicles. So we should schedule meetings in easily accessible loca-tions and should provide travel vouchers or promptly reimburse youth for transportation costs.
Food—Few young people have the income to purchase meals in business districts or dinners in restaurants. When meetings occur at meal times, organizations should provide young people either with food or with suffi-cient funds to pay for meals. This is already in SEAC to do list; although first grocery-cart was rolling( as seen in the above pic-ture), more support in this area is needed. Organization Staff and Policies—In some organizations that have always operated from an exclusively adult perspective, staff usually needs cultural competency train-ing prior to involving youth meaningfully. Adults must accept young people's perspec-tives and ideas, and be willing to change rules to meet the needs of youth. Each adult-participant must make determined efforts to let each young person know he/she is a val-ued, contributing member of the organiza-tion. Finally, with input from both youth and adults, organizations should develop policies on youth/adult interactions. For example, if a program involves overnight travel, youth and adults should be clear about their roles and responsibilities in traveling together. Policies must respect youth and their desire for independence and, at the same time, ad-dress parental concerns about security as well as the legal liability of the organization. There are many studies on youth-develop-ment to look at, and many more to come; however, SEAC has a great foundation, and a good start. With more partnerships to come, we will keep you posted on the other projects. For more information, donations or to volunteer, feel free to contact Thanh-Thu Luong at (980) 224-3081 [email protected]; for information regarding FNHealthAs-sist, visit @ fnhealthassist.org, and leave a comment.

卡羅來納亞洲小姐 MAC選美活動開始進行
洋溢的青春 小记 2013 夏樂市中国小姐 魏澜
眼见参选今年卡羅萊納亞美商會举
办的“亚洲小姐”的“中国小姐”，
你就自然会想起青春这两个字，想起
妙龄少女，想起那些与春天与活力连
在一起的词。
17 岁的芳龄，170 CM 高挑的个头，
圆圆的脸上总是挂着快乐的笑容，她
感染着周边的每一个人。是啊，拥有
美丽，拥有健康，拥有青春，怎能不
快乐？快乐的成长，也是她父母的心
愿。
魏澜先就选好了自己的生日，借六
月六降生；两岁时来到美国北卡州风
景如画的 Boone，初来乍到就受到了
淳朴好客的南方人的关爱有加；四岁
到夏洛特，四岁半进到夏洛特华夏中
文学校，第一位中文的启蒙老师就是
夏洛特著名的端庄秀丽嗓音甜美，曾
是北京话剧院主角的陈宁女士，怎能
不说是幸运。
魏澜没有虎妈，也许也会比较任
性，但同时也因此特别独立。从小上
学就自己起床去坐校车，小学时自己
报名参加交通疏管，天不亮就站在嗖
嗖的冷风里，四岁多开始学滑冰，参
加比赛都是自己梳理打扮。这种独立
性也在南卡州中学模拟法庭上显露无
遗，她的思辨和自信能力得以充分施
展，最终得以力克群雄，数次为所在
中学获得的州际模拟法庭大赛的第一
名。音乐也一直围绕着她，从钢琴小
提琴到高中以后吹的黑管、英國管，
像所有的这个年龄的孩子一样，她的
生活充满了美妙的旋律和五彩的斑
斓。
无论是旋转在冰场，还是与乐队一
起行进在纽约的 Macy’s Parade ；无
论是舞蹈在学校的舞蹈队；还是在夏
洛特敦煌艺术团和国际时装节上走 T型舞台；她都让你感受享受到她的投
入她的自信快乐，像一只羽翼渐丰的
小鸟在无尽的蓝天飞翔。
生命的历程刚刚起步，她要代表中
国，代表中国在美国的年轻一代，展
露她们外在的美她们洋溢的青春；更
要显示她们的内蕴，她们的修养，她
对中国历史文化的热爱（她从五岁起
就每年回中国），她们对世界的认
知，我们祝愿魏澜在 2013 的亚洲小
姐的角逐中问鼎摘冠！
请关注,

活到天年
本是給爸媽買了一本養生書《活到
天年》，到手后一翻，發現對俺這些
中青年人也非常有幫助。尤其是這個
薏米紅豆粥，自己做了幾天后，身體
感覺的確不錯,於是這段時間逢人就
推薦,在把書寄給爸媽前，我先把它
摘錄到博客裡。
不過,我沒有採用作者推薦的做
法，太麻煩，而是用爸爸推薦的方法
做的，非常省事，薏米和紅豆也都能
做得又軟又好吃。每晚睡覺前，我把
薏米紅豆和水放到電砂鍋裡，開至自
動檔,早上一醒來就能喝上熱騰騰的
粥，多好!
如果世上有一種藥，又能當飯吃，
還能當茶喝，不僅美味養人，還能讓
全家人百病不生，您願意一試嗎？
祛除體內的濕氣，方法非常簡單，
隻需兩個“藥”。
這兩個藥能當茶喝，能當飯吃，而
且能解 決大問題，它們一是薏米，一
是紅豆。
這兩種東西，不需按什麼比例，每
次一樣抓一把，洗干淨后放在鍋裡加
水熬，熬好后就是 祛濕健脾的佳品-
薏米紅豆粥了。……
薏米紅豆粥有個好處，就是怎麼熬都不
會發黏發稠，底下總是熬爛了的紅豆和薏
米，上面是淡紅色 的湯，而薏米和紅豆的
有效成份大半都在湯裡。
熬粥的時候，水放得多一些，這些湯就
夠我們喝半天了，正好可以當茶喝…。至
於功效，那真是非同小可。薏米，在中藥
裡稱“薏 苡仁”，《神農本草經》將其列
為上品，它可以治濕痺，利腸胃，消水
腫，健脾益胃，久服輕身益氣。
紅豆，在中藥裡稱作為“赤小豆”， 也
有明顯的利水，消腫，健脾胃之功效，因
為它是紅色的，紅色入心，因此它還能補
心。
現代人精神壓力大，心氣虛，飲食不
節，運動量少，脾虛濕盛。既要祛濕，又
要補心，還要健脾胃，非薏米和紅豆莫
屬。將其熬成粥，意在使其有效成分充分
為人體吸收，同時也不給脾胃造成任何負
擔。
關於薏米和紅豆的“消腫”作用，也很
有意思。我們千萬不要以為腫就是水腫。
試看今人，十個裡面起碼有五六個身體發
福，這也是腫，叫做 體態臃腫。在中醫看
來，肥胖也好，水腫也好，都意味著體內
有濕。
水液不能隨氣血流動，滯留在人體細胞
之間，使人體迅速膨脹起來。水腫如此，
肥胖也是如此，只不 過是程度有深有淺而
已。
祛濕性極強的藥物或食物能祛除這些滯
留在人體的水液，也就能消腫。
所以，治療水腫必用紅豆，而實踐証
明，薏 米紅豆粥具有良好的減肥功效，
既能減肥，又不傷身體，尤其是對於中老
年肥胖者，效果尤其好。
濕邪 是造成現代各種慢性、頑固性疾病
的根本，而薏米紅豆湯是治濕邪最好的
藥。
我平時給病人開完方子后，總要囑咐他
們在飲食起居上的一些注意事項，其中說
得最多的就是回去熬薏 米紅豆湯當茶喝。
對於不具備這個條件的病人，我會讓他用
薏米和紅豆熬粥，作為晚餐的主食。
有人對我說“我在熬薏 米紅豆粥的時
候，加了一把大米，結果粥就熬稠了，
味道那叫一個美啊！”我說：“千萬不能
加大米進去！”
為什麼？因為大米長在水裡，含 有濕
氣，濕性黏稠，所以大米一熬就稠了。紅
豆和薏米都是祛濕的，本身不含濕，所以
它們怎麼熬都不稠，湯很清。
中醫恰恰是利用了它這種清的性質，來
把人體的濕給除掉，一旦加進去大米，就
等於加進去了濕氣， 所以整個粥就稠了。
雖然味道可能更好了，但對於養生來說並
非好事，就因為那一把大米，所有的紅
豆、薏米就都白費了，功效全無。
除了紅豆薏米粥，大家還可以多了解各
種食物的性、味，舉一反三，自己進行加
減，組成更多適 合自己體質的飲食處方
來。這樣，食物才能真正成為養生的佳
品。
神色晦暗、精神不足，甚至心悸、貪
睡、心中空虛：薏米紅豆加桂圓
煩躁失眠，或者臉上起紅疹、痘痘：薏
米紅豆加百合、蓮子
胃中寒痛、食欲不佳、怕冷：薏米紅豆

李安的啟示 張至璋
李安再度獲得奧斯
卡導演獎，離上次斷
背山八年。致辭中，
不忘感激的是影片拍攝地，他
的出生地台灣。
「少年 Pi 的奇幻漂流」這部
以 3D 轟動票房的影片，劇情
簡單，卻臥虎藏龍式地闡釋人
對神明的執著，對生命的渴
求，提升超越綠巨人的內涵。
若論困陷求生，那老虎，斑
馬，猴子，少年 Pi 沒有異同，
可是一旦安全上岸，人獸分野
立現。如何以單純劇情展現這
種理性與感性，要詮釋得好不
容易。不妨說李安成功的推
手，是他對困難的追求，不斷
獲獎只是一再的喜宴。
李安發光前有過黯淡，當年
台灣的大專聯考兩次落榜，在
美國學成卻失業六年。後來的
成功除了機會與能力外，溫
和，沉靜與執著的個性蓄積了
日後爆發的動能。這次頒獎很
紅的卡通影片 Brave 製片人莎
拉芬前幾天說她得到過最受用
的話，是來自已故的喬布斯
「別後悔你做的，惋惜想做卻
沒做的。」李安正是這樣。
不知道你是否看到兩條小新
聞，碰巧都發生在人口不到 50萬的堪薩斯。一名 92 歲老太太
在子女協助下，去世前六周完
成心願。老
太太曾眼見
一具彩虹色
動力降落
傘，飛越她
的房屋上
空，這個驚奇鏡頭促使她夢
想，總要有天跳次降落傘。時
光一年年過去，不久前在一個
晴朗日子，子女完成了老太太
心願，在彩虹色傘下，老太太
快樂地降落在草坪上，兒女製
作的錄影名為「飛越彩虹」。
六周後老太太過世，人生沒有
遺憾。
同樣在堪薩斯街頭，寒風中
一名老流浪漢比利哈里斯，接
受一名婦女掏出來的一堆零
錢。這個婦女第二天發現，丟
給流浪漢的銅板中有她的結婚
鑽戒。她忐忑不安地跑回那個
街口，流浪漢仍坐在地上。她
問他是否記得她，流浪漢回答
人太多不記得。她說昨天誤把
鑽石戒指丟在他的筒裡，流浪
漢回答，「我在等著妳回
來！」這次她傾囊所有的錢給
了流浪漢。
消息第二天見了報，捐款雪
片飛來，指定給誠實的哈里
斯，三天內超過 16 萬元。還有
更大的收穫，哈里斯失聯 27 年
的姐妹遠從德州打電話來暢
談，還要把他請回家團聚。
人能築夢真好；勇敢實現，
更了不起。李安就是這樣。
谁是真神
在思考“谁是真神？”这个问题时，无意
之间发现了一篇文章。文章的题目是“认识
真神”。作者是 Steven Houck,该篇文章有
六个章节: 永生，真神，神的要求，人的失
败，神的救赎，和真正的信仰。由于篇幅限
制，兹介绍前两章。希望读者，尤其是信仰
基督的兄弟姐妹喜欢。
永生
你了解真神吗？不是人所想象的，乃是圣
经中描述的神？你对他有亲密的了解，从而
使你爱他，为他服务？这是一个非常重要的
问题。圣经告诉我们，永生是知道上帝和他
的儿子耶稣基督。耶稣说，这永恒的生命
是: 他们知道您派来的耶稣基督和您是唯一
的真神。（约翰福音17:3）如果你想有永恒
的生命，并与神永远生活在天上，你必须知
道上帝和他的儿子，耶稣基督。
如果你有兴趣认识真正的上帝，请仔细斟
酌以下内容。
真神
圣经教导我们，上帝是非常伟大，光荣
的。他是至高无上的神。耶和华超乎万民之
上 。谁像耶和华我们的 神呢？他坐在至高
之处，自己谦卑，洞察天上地下的事 。
（诗篇113:4-6）上帝是如此之伟大，没有
人像他。在世界上没有任何人可以与神相
比。上帝是一个神圣的整体：具有圣父，圣
子，圣灵三个位格。上帝是无限的，自给自
足的，不可改变的，并拥有所有主权。他是
无所不能，无所不知，无处不在。天地的神
是圣洁，公义，和公正的神。他是充满慈
爱，恩典和真理。他是如此伟大以至于他的
荣耀超过上述所有国家，甚至盖过了天。与
他相比，我们什么都不是。万民在他面前好
像虚无，被他看为不及虚无，乃为虚空 。
（以赛亚书40:17）
神的伟大彰显在他所进行的精彩创作。圣
经教导我们，上帝是万物的创造者。在创世
纪1:1，我们看到，在起初，神创造天地。
宇宙没有经历过一种演变过程。它是上帝在
六天内创造的。神只是说他的功能强大的话
语，世界应运而生。诸天借耶和华的命而
造，万象借他口中的气而成 。因为他说
有，就有 。命立 ，就立 。（诗33:6,9）
上帝是如此之大以至于他从虚无中了创造世
界。圣经教导我们，就知道诸世界是借神话
造成的 。这样，所看见的，并不是从显然
之物造出来的。（希伯来书11:3）每一个生
物的存在，包括你在内，都归于神。
上帝不仅是世界的创造者，而且他也是世
界的持续者。他坚持世界以便它继续存在。
没有保护神的力量，整个世界将不复存在。
宇宙不能自己独自站立。它是上帝创造的，
因此为了自身的存在需要神。没有神的持续
力量，你什么都不是，你什么也做不成。神
自己倒将生命气息，万物，赐给万人 。我
们生活，运动，存 留，都在乎他 。（使徒
行传17:25,28）没有神的持续力量你甚至不
能移动。
神的伟大不仅表现在创造和维持世界，并
且在于他对世界各地的控制。上帝是世界的
统治者。耶和华在天 上立定宝座。他的权
柄统管万有。（诗篇103:19）上帝是唯一的
君主，万王之王，万主之主（提摩太前书
6:15）。他不弱，别的生物无法阻挠他的意
志。他是永恒的国王，他统治着所有的事
情，包括你和我。他控制着世界，带来了对
所有的东西，包括每个人在内的永久计划。
我们也在他里面得了基业，这原是那位 随
己意行作万事的，照着他旨意所预定的 。
（以弗所书1:11）神是你的统治者和国王。
因此，在世界上没有任何生物是独立于神
的。我们都需要神。你亏欠真神你自己的生
命。此外，上帝创造了你是出于自己的荣
耀。圣经说，上帝，因为你创造了万物，并
且万物是因你的旨意被创造而有的 。（启
示录4:11）你不是在为自己的快乐而被产
生。你被产生也不是为了简简单单的存在。
你的产生是荣耀 神。

吃魚
更容易吃進重金屬及化學毒物
陳建中 台灣大學食品科技研究所博士
黃建勳 台大雲林分院安寧病房主任
由於多數研究指出，食用紅肉會罹患癌
症，或增加心血管疾病的風險，所以很多人
改吃白肉，特別是魚，以為這樣就可以趨吉
避凶。然而，吃魚真的有益健康嗎？最近的
研究得到的結果並非如此。
很多人以為吃魚有益心臟，這主要是起源
於二十年前的一項兩年期的短期實驗，該研
究發現吃魚能減少心臟病患者二次心臟病發
作的死亡率。很多醫生因此建議大眾多吃魚
以維護心臟健康。
然而，最近有學者重新檢視這項研究，並
進行後續長期追蹤，經過十五年的研究，結
果證實吃魚並不會降低二次心臟病發作的次
數或死亡率。如果針對心臟病高風險的心絞
痛患者進行研究，甚至發現吃魚反而大量增
加百分之二十的死亡率，吃大家認為更有益
建康的深海魚油情況更嚴重，會增加百分之
四十五的死亡率。至於針對無心臟病史的低
風險族群之研究，也發現吃魚並沒有保護的
作用。
不僅如此，最新的研究也推翻了過去認為
吃魚有助於降低糖尿病的看法，甚至發現每
周吃魚超過五次的人，比每月吃魚不到一次
的人，糖尿病風險顯著高出百分之二十二。
過去還有一些研究指出，吃魚有助於胎兒發
展，最近的研究則證實大量吃魚的婦女，懷
孕時嬰兒發展較遲緩，生下的嬰兒體重也明
顯較輕。
其實吃魚更容易吃進重金屬及化學毒物。
我國環保署的調查發現，吃愈多大型魚類的
人，頭髮中的含汞量愈高，常吃魚者的含汞
量是不吃魚者的六倍，葷食者是素食者的八
倍！
根據美國消費者協會報告：多氯聯苯與戴
奧辛是汙染魚類的最主要化學汙染物。多氯
聯苯屬於致癌物，戴奧辛號稱「世紀之毒」
兩者都會經由胎盤以及母乳傳輸給胎兒，因
此美國環境保護局呼籲懷孕、哺乳的婦女及
嬰幼兒，減少食用魚貝類等海產，以避免
腎、心臟、中樞神經系統的傷害，造成畸
胎、不孕或幼童的生長遲緩。
另外，由於人類濫捕野生魚類和對水質的
汙染，造成海洋生態的嚴重危機。目前世界
魚獲量已比最高產量減少百分之九十。若不
改善，到了二○四八年，所有經濟性魚類及
海產生物都會枯竭。
拒吃紅肉而改吃白肉，並不能遠離肥胖與
癌症，現代醫學也不支持吃白肉可以降低心
血管疾病或膽固醇。相反的，植物性食物例
如亞麻籽油、橄欖油、堅果和大豆類，富含
短鍊奧米茄三脂肪酸，可以轉化成 EPA 和
DHA，能夠大量減少二次心臟病發作，降低
百分之七十的死亡率，長期而言，更可以有
效保護心臟健康。

值得你一生珍藏的“养生论” (一)
1、记住：睡觉是养生第一要素。睡觉的时间应该
是晚 21 ： 00~早 3 ： 00。因为这个时间是一天的
冬季，冬季主藏，冬季不藏，春夏不长，即第 2天没精神。
2、 一切药物对治病来说都是治标，不是治本，不
管是中医还是西医。因为一切的病都是错误的因
产生错误的果。错误的因不除,错误的果就不会绝
根.健康的根本在心。一切法从心生，心净则身
净。所以得病了，不要向外求,，要靠自己自身的
修复系统来修复自己的疾病。其实人和动物是一
样的，动物的病都是靠自己，人也能。
3、正确的观念远比昂贵的药物和危险的手术，更
能帮助患者消除疾病。
4 、人所具有的一切智慧，绝对不是从书本里学来
的，而是从自己的真诚心、清净心（就是佛家所
说的菩提心），从定中生出来的。
5、人是一切生物中构造最完美的灵体，健康的身
体是人生来就具足的；人的健康状况的调节是靠
人体本身所具有的调节修复系统来完成的，而不
是靠外部因素，外部因素只能起辅助作用。
6 、人的大部分生病现象是人体在调节、清理身体
垃圾时所表现的现象，是人体自动调节平衡所表
现出的状态，所以应该把它们当成正常的生理现
象，而不应该去把它当成病因来消灭。所以当人
在生病的时候，一定不要有怨恨嗔恚心，心里要
安定，心定则气顺，气顺则血畅，气顺血畅则百
病消。
7 、人的健康离不开两大要素：
1）足够的气血； 2）畅通的经络（包括血管和排
泄垃圾的通道）。
8 、足够的气血靠：足够的食物+胆汁+必要时间内
（晚天黑后~午夜 1 点 40）优质的睡眠（这个时候
大脑完全不工作，由植物神经主导）+良好的生活
习惯。
9 、畅通的经络需要：清净心。一切七情六欲都会
破坏清净心，从而破坏经络的正常运行。
10 、维持健康的身体不仅需要“增收（增加气
血）”，也需要“节支（减少血气的损耗）”。
11 、过度地增加食物不仅不会增加血气，而且会
成为身体中的垃圾负担，反过来还得靠消耗血气
来把他们清理掉。五脏六腑是一个血气加工厂，
食物是原材料，加工能力是有限的，而食物是无
限的，所以食物的数量必须得到控制。
12 、适当运动可以帮助人的气血运行，但同时也
在消耗人的气血。人体的微循环主要应该靠松静
来达到的，这也是健康必不可少的。
13 、人体中的垃圾越多，就越需要更多的血气来
清除它们，但人的血气因为垃圾的增多和血脉的
阻塞而减少，这就形成了恶性循环，这也正是人
衰老的机理。所以，人要想健康不老，就要： 1）
减少体内的垃圾； 2）增加血脉经络的畅通； 3）
增加体内的气血。
14 、 与其相信药物，相信检查的数据，不如相信
自己的感觉，相信自己所具足的自我调节能力。
但这需要在你得道(智慧开了)的前提之下，才能分
辨这一切。
15、 健康，从调节心性开始。为了你的健康，你
学佛吧。学佛得到的快乐是人生最高的享受。
16 、 对于一个有宿疾的人来说，只有气血充足了
（一是通过这里所介绍的补充气血的方法，二是
通过静坐打通气机），病情才会显现出来。所以
练功的人在功夫达到一定水平后都会出现一些
“有病”的现象。这个时候要沉住气，定下心来
多做些静功来增加自己的气血，以尽快度过这个
时期。

샬롯 열린교회담임: 조재철 목사
담임목사 취임 감사 예배샬롯 열린교회는 지난 3월 17일(일)5시에 본당에서 조재철 목사의 담임목사 취임 감사예배를 드렸다.이날 예배에는 샬롯 열린교회 성도들과 지역교회 성도 및 목회자들을 포함 약 150명이 참석하여 예배를 드렸으며 임대문 목사(샬롯 지구촌교회 담임)의 사회로 진행 되었다.김기영 목사(샬롯 휄로쉽 교회 담임)의 대표기구 이후 박찬우 목사의 특별 찬양이 있었으며 정을기 목사(온나라 교회담임)는 “하나남이 찾으시는 교회”라는 제목으로 말씀을 전했다. 담임목사 취임 경과 보고를 이형호 집사가 하였으며 취임목사 소개를 엄주은 못가(애틀란타 한인 침례교회)가 하였고 취임 목사를 위한 기도를 김진호 목사(찬양선교 예그린 대표)가 하였다. 아울러 말씀을 전한 정을기 목사는 조재철 담임 목사 취임 선포를 하였으며 축사에는 송인도 선교사(애틀란타 새생명교회)와 김바울 목사(BBN 방송 사역자)가 하였다. 이어 조재철 목사는 답사를 하였고 이은경 집사의 축가가 이어졌고 송호철 목사(그린스보로 침례교회)의 축도로 예배를 모두 마쳤다. 이번 예배순서 중 취임 담임 목사 소개를 한 엄 주은 목사는 20년간 친구이자 믿음의 동역자인 조재철 목사를 소개하면서 자신이 한국에서 담임 목회를 섬길 당시 힘들고 어려운 시기 가운데 자신
의 결혼 반지까지 팔아서 도와준 고마운 친구 일뿐만 아니라 섬김의 사람이며, 열정의 사람이고, 화평의 사람이라는 생생한 간증을 하여 예배에 참석한 많은 사람들에게 감동을 주어 눈시울을 적시었다. 이번에 담임목사 취임 기념품을 준비하지 않고, 기념품 비용 전액을 선교를 위한 선교금으로 양문 선교사(애틀란타 새생명교회 선교담당)에게 전달 하였다. 모든 에배를 마친 후 구영복 장로(샬롯 열린교회)는 살아 오면서 몇번의 비슷한 예배를 드렸지만 이처럼 진솔하고 간절하며 하나님의 은헤가 넘치는 취임 예배를 본 적이 었었다고 말을 전하였다.

이언의 바이올린 연주가 시작되자 힘 없이 감겼던 눈을 뜨시고“아리랑아리랑 ~~” 고향의 노래를 불러주셨다. 할머니 할아버지 손을 잡고 품에 안기는 아이들의따스한 온기에, 아이들의 재롱에, “건강하세요, 사랑해요” 아이들의 인사에, 골진 어르신들의 얼굴에 햇살 같은 웃음이 번지고 눈가에 기쁨의 눈물이 번졌다 제4 여전도회에서 정성스레 준
비한 선물을 전달하고, 목사님의 기도로 프로그램을 마쳤고, “다시 올게요~건강하셔요, 안녕히 계셔요, 내년에 다시 봬요” 아쉬운 작별을 나누며 헤어졌다. 파란하늘, 새순 돋은 연.초록 봄 나무들이 더없이 평화로운 에쉬빌산 중턱을 내려오면서 잠시 있다 떠나는 우리의 위로보다 하늘로서 내리는 영원한 위로가 어르신들의 가슴에 넘치기를 기도했다. ■

캐롤라이나 국제문화협회(CICC) 마지막 회의 가져...
CICC(Carolina International Cultural Committee, 회장 이승현 박사)는 지난 3월 9일(토) 오후 6시, 샬롯 다운타운에 있는 메리엇 호텔에서 20여명의 회원이 모인 가운데 있었다. 이날 식사 후에 진행된 회의는 거의 은퇴하고 80세가 넘는 회원들이 모였고 , 그 동안 CICC 종결에 대한 의견들을 나누어 왔던 차 이번 회의를 통해 최종 중지를 모으고 공식적인 마지막 회의임을 발표했다. 한편, 5만여불의 잔여금 회비 사용계획은 따로 모임을 갖고 결정하기로 했다.케롤라이나 지역의 엘리트들이 회원간
의 친목을 도모하고, 장학사업을 목적으로 24년 전에 창립되었던 CICC는 그간 많은 활동을 하며 주력한 사업은 소련과 연변대학에서 한인 교환교수들을 불러 들여 장학금을 지급하고 미국에서의 학위과정 이수를 도왔으며, 미국에서는 장학생을 선발하여 대학 진학생 뿐만 어려운 한인학생들에게 장학금을 지급해 왔었다. 한편 캐롤라이나 지역에서 건강한 목적을 가지고 창립되었던 CICC가 24년이 지난 즈음에 종결은,20여년간 젊은 층의 회원 미가입으로 세대교차를 이루지 못한 것이 큰 원인 중에 하나가 되고 있다. ■
