A Chinese Regatta: 2000 Years of Tradition

COMMUNITY LINKS

The 4th Annual Dragon Boat Festival in Miami Beach, Florida.

The destination is now sunny North Miami Beach, Florida for the 4th annual Dragon Boat Festival held at Haulover Park during the weekend of October 14th – 15th. The festival honored the heroic action of poet Chu Yuan who drowned himself in a river almost 2000 years ago. About 25 teams showed up for the event, coming from New York, Tampa, and even Germany. Teams consisted of professional dragon boat race teams, a league of law school students, a “spirited” liquor company, Asian Student Association students from area high schools and universities, and land dominating kung fu teams.  By Cindy Cheung  Photo By Cindy Cheung Opening Ceremony Team Puff Showing off their spirit

Magazine Online at www.asiatrendmagazine.com

COMMUNITY LINKS Winnie Tang, Events Coordinator, anticipated that 10,000 spectators showed up for the event and also recruited hundreds of volunteers from the University of Miami, Coral Gables Chinese Cultural Association, area high schools and community volunteers. Vendors sold Sno Cones, Caribbean and Asian fare for whet appetites during the festival. Why so many dragon boat races? Winnie Tang, (nicknamed “Typhoon Winnie” by the Sun Sentinel because of her unmitigated activism in the community) states, “The signiﬁcance of Dragon Boat races is the importance to bring people together no matter what their nationality [to] celebrate a cultural Chinese sport that began 2,000 years ago…. [The] German team was established in 1989. Therefore, there are no boundaries between nations in order to have fun together and have stories to share.” Some teams shared their thoughts about Dragon Boat racing and why they joined the sport. Absolut Dragons manager Ed Yung (also a member of the Chinese Cultural Association) and spokesperson Giselle Maharaj brought their team from Southern Wine and

Spirits of America, known for and named after their best selling product, Absolut vodka, competed for three years and comprised of family members, employees, and friends. Professional Dragon Boat racing team Puff competed in New York, Tampa, Atlanta, and in local Florida competitions. Cesar Torres, team captain, was initially drawn to the sport in Europe and then later on joined in New York, competed and winning numerous trophies. His team is a salad bowl of Asians, Central Americans, Caribbean and South American men and women. Puff practices three times a week and maintain camaraderie by holding social events such as Halloween parties, slumber parties and even beach parties. Puff welcomes anyone and everyone to join their team. To justify the means of the sport, Jurist Dragons recruited by a Puff team paddler decided to partake in the Dragon Boat festival to represent APALSA (Asian Pacific American Law Student Association) at St. Thomas School of Law in Miami. This was their first year representing and definitely coming out next year. The team felt that timing was most challenging and keeping with the beat of the

drum. Although law students are competitive in the classroom, the sport has brought them closer together. Kung Fu teams who came to the festival to compete in Sunday’s competition was challenged in the Dragon Boat race to see if they can do just as well on water as they do on land. Divine Dragons team captain Miguel Alfonso Jr. and kung fu instructor of Divines Fist in Miami claimed that the 500 meter race was “tough”, but that did not hinder them from coming again for their second year. Johnson Ng refutes the notion that Dragon Boat racing or the festival is celebrated solely by the Chinese by saying “People think it’s Chinese culture. We have to bring back to the American community by inviting them and also draw the Chinese community. Asians are capable ﬁnancially and we showed that we can produce a high quality event. It works and it’s worth it”. It deﬁnitely is worth it; the City of Miami commissioned that the 3rd week in October is slated for the Miami Dragon Boat Festival.

The Art of Toy Design  By Suzy Guttler

“

Designing toys never started on paper for me, because I never really liked to draw. Instead, I would picture a design in my head and just start molding them out of super sculpey, adding new features as I went along.

“Designing toys never started on paper for me, because I never really liked to draw. Instead, I would picture a design in my head and just start molding them out of super sculpey, adding new features as I went along.” Tony Shiau, “Nakanari, “born and raised in South Taiwan, began collecting and designing toys since childhood. It grew from one of his favorite hobbies to a career he wanted to pursue when he grew up.

”

In 2004, B.B.birdy, Premier Toy Designer in Taiwan, picked up Nakanari’s “Misﬁts of Nakanri” designs. That year, Nakanari began working on the Funny Club Show. “As show director for the 2004 Funny Club Show,” explains Nakanari, “the idea was to have a number of artists bring their talent from 2D to 3D artwork on blank canvas toys. This was the beginning of my dream of working with over 150 global artists, traveling the U.S. from the

east to the west coast as well as exhibiting in Asia.” Nakanari has exhibited with other well knows artists like Emmy award winning “Teacher’s Pet” creator Gary Baseman, Tim Biskup, graffiti legend “Seen”, Cameron Tiede, popular toy designer MAD, sket one, Frank Koizk, Jada toy crew, x-concpet designer chito and Mattel’s Hot Wheel head designer MIQ WILLMOTT. Since then, Nakanari’s work has been exhibited and collected around the world. Now, right here in Central Florida, Asia Trend sits down with award winning Nakanari, and talks about what’s to come for the designer and his passion for the art of toy design. Suzy: Tell us a little bit about your designs? Tony: My style is a fusion of Japanese comics and graffiti, with simple colors. “The Misfits of Nakanari” was the first toy line I came up with. I used the two characters, Naka and Nari, to show contrast, just like “Good vs. Evil”. Suzy: What are some of your biggest accomplishments and projects thus far? Tony: My biggest accomplishments so far have been the Funny Club Show and the formation of Me Llamo Jellyfish. The Funny Club Show introduced Taiwanese designer toys to the world and it was an honor to be involved with it. The formation of Me Llamo Jellyfish allows me to work with other talented local artists here in Central Florida and gives me an opportunity to show the world what Orlando has to offer. Suzy: What is the inspiration behind Me Llamo Jellyfish?

ASIA TALKS Tony: Me Llamo Jellyfish was a small idea that quickly became reality. I was working the FX Show showing off various arts from different artists, myself included, and reached out to a few friends for some assistance. After the show I realized that we all had some real good chemistry together and thought it would be a good idea to team up. After a little while of talking and thinking, Me Llamo Jellyfish was born. We are all local artists with different tastes and styles, but with one common goal, to introduce the world to wonderful and positive art, while having a little fun along the way. Suzy: What kind of noise has Me Llamo Jellyfish been creating in the local Central Florida scene? Tony: Our latest show “Peanut Butter & Jellyfish” held at Uberbot in Winter Park, Florida was our “getting to know you” party. We wanted to introduce ourselves to the world and show them what we can do. We had numerous items on display, ranging from buttons and stickers, to a plush peanut butter & jellyfish and custom painted toys. Suzy: Tell us about Uberbot. Tony: Uberbot, in Winterpark is a store all about love. They love art and toy culture with a passion and is the first store in the southeastern U.S. to carry a full line of designer toys. In addition to Urban Vinyl, Uberbot highlights original art from local and international artists, stocking a sizable collection of import music, movies and best selection of designer toys outside of Tokyo! Our “Peanut Butter & Jellyfish” show this past October celebrated Uberbot’s first year anniversary.

Suzy: A little back ground information on the designers? Tony: The artists currently involved with Me Llamo Jellyﬁsh are, Dave Quiles, Julius Santiago, Jorge Aponte, Kelly Aponte, Oni, Spider, and myself, Nakanari. Suzy: What are some of your future aspirations and goals? Tony: Our goal is a simple one. Education. We want to show the world that art is evolving, it is changing, and it will never be the same again. We want to open people’s eyes, and help them realize that whether you’re painting a canvas or spray painting a wall, art is art, and that art is beautiful. The whole world is your canvas, go out and paint something pretty. Suzy: Any personal aspirations? Tony: As for us personally, we would like to

reach a point where we can expand nationally, perhaps even globally and included many various artist and styles within our group. Diversity is wonderful, and we are all for it. Suzy: What’s coming up? Anything the fans should be looking out for in the near future? Tony: Me Llamo Jellyfish has a plethora of things in the works. We are currently planning our next big event; “Project: Vinyl” to be hosted at the 2007 Florida Extravaganza Show. There are also many projects in the works. Collaborations with other artists and companies, a unique designer toy line, plush figures, and even a clothing line. Me Llamo Jellyfish is here and we hope to stick around for a long time. Suzy: Thanks so much! For more information on Nakanari and Me Llamo Jellyfish, log onto http://www.mellamojellyfish.com/. ATM

Dim Sum is a Craft  By Shally Wong

CASA (Chinese American Student Association) of UCF having the ﬁrst Dim Sum Social at Ming’s Bistro

Dim Sum literally means ‘’touch of the heart, is the Asian combination of breakfast, brunch and lunch in one delicious meal. They are delightful, mouth-watering snacks, similar to hors d’oeuvres, the hot and cold delicacies served at French restaurants. Dim Sum is served in steaming bamboo baskets and eaten with pots and pots of Chinese tea. Steamed pork buns, shrimp dumplings, beef balls steamed rice-flour roll and famous egg custard tarts are just some of the local favorites. The best way to enjoy dim sum is with a large group; otherwise you’ll fill up on a few items and miss the opportunity to sample everything. When it comes to cooking methods, many of the dishes are either steamed or deepfried. Among the former, you’ll find everything from steamed pork spareribs and char siu bao - steamed buns with roast pork - to har gao, those wonderful shrimp dumplings with

the translucent skin. Deep-fried treats include mini spring rolls and Wu Gok, a type of taro turnover. Not to mention whatever other culinary creations the chef may come up with. Dim Sum, to me is a way of family connection. When I was young, I remember I would be delightful when my parents brought me out for Dim Sum. Many years later, I am doing the same thing to my parents. Dim Sum is not just a traditional cuisine; it is a custom that brings us the family ties.

Not all Chinese Restaurants serve Dim Sum, here are several Dim Sum specialties in town.

CHEUNG CHAU

BUN FESTIVAL

The Bun Festival is local to the island of Cheung Chau only. Pak Tai, the Taoist God of the Sea is worshipped and evil spirits are scare away by loud gongs and drums during the procession. The celebration includes Taoist praying, opera performances and ends with processions performed by children dressed in colorful costumes.  By Mingolo

heung Chau (meaning “long island” in Cantonese) is one of the most popular of all the outlying islands. Shaped like a dumbbell, it is about a 40-60-minute ferry ride from Hong Kong’s Central District. Cheung Chau is a picturesque island with a waterfront that bustles with activity. There are butcher shops and vendors selling fresh ﬁsh, shellﬁsh, fruit and vegetables. The small local restaurants and food stalls do a brisk trade on weekends. During the week, Cheung Chau is a quiet residential island but at weekends, it’s a different story. When ferries, packed with sightseers and holiday-makers arrive at the island, the population doubles. Cheung Chau is most famous for its week-long Bun Festival, held during the fourth moon in the lunar calendar (April/May). The celebration culminates in a unique and colourful street procession.

Scenic Attractions

The yearly Cheung Chau Bun Festival - is a festival which includes a parade of ﬂoats, most famously including young children dressed as famous characters doing impossible balancing acts. It last

seven days and attracts tens of thousands of visitors to the island. Cheung Chau was the birthplace of Ms. Lee Lai Shan (born 1970), a windsurfer who won the first Olympic gold for Hong Kong in 1996. Bun towers are built with bamboo structures 60 foot high, piled with sweet buns, outside the Pak Tai temple. Since these buns are blessed, in the old days, people climbed up the bun towers and compete for buns at midnight on the first day of the festival. It was supposed to appease the spirits of the people who died in a 19th century plague on the island. Unfortunately, accident happened in 1978. The bun towers collapsed under the weight of too many climbers and more than 100 people were injured. Since then, there is no more competition. Buns are distributed to the believers after the ceremony. You can also buy these buns from local bakers.” Enormous bamboo towers studded with white chinese bun and effigies of three gods dominate the grounds near the Pak Tai Temple, where the main festivities take place. The festival that lasts for about a week climaxes with a large, colourful street procession, which features costumed children on stilts in a car-

nival atmosphere that winds its way through the streets. One of the reputed origins of this popular festival, which attracts tourists by the tens of thousands each year, involves a plague on the island hundreds of years ago. Villagers disguised themselves as different deities and walked around the island to drive away the evil spirits responsible for the plague. Another story says the festival is part of an annual exorcism and fast.

Feng Shui is the Path of Life!

FENG SHUI TALK

Office Feng Shui Feng Shui is a valuable tool in your workplace. It aids in increasing sales, boosting morale of employees, increasing productivity and inducing kind energies. Apply Feng Shui at your business or home office. At work, you should have your seat on a solid surface and have stable back support; you should create an artificial support if you do not have one. You can do this by placing 8 white stones or pebbles under your seat, or cover your seat with brown and yellow cloth. Below, please find the things to avoid in your workplace. Back of your seat is facing the door. This makes sense since the rule of thumb requires your back to have support so any opening from behind is deemed as a leakage or a loophole to interfere with your support. You will find it hard to have support from superiors or your work will require constant correction or amendment. If you cannot or do not have a choice, you should place a yellow or brown shirt to cover your chair and place 8 white stones under your seats. Nevertheless, make sure you arrange them properly and not out of place. Ideally, you should move your workplace as well. Take a minute to find out which of your co-workers face such a

situation and examine the repercussions he or she has, if any. If it is true for your co-worker, give this book to him or Behind your seat is a wall plate mirror. A wall plate mirror is essentially the same as having the back of your seat facing the door. The rational behind this is that the mirror reflects you without any concrete support. The mirror also serves as an absorbing tool to attract kind energies like water. However, since you are in front of the mirror, your energies will be drained away! You will feel muscle pain and lethargic most of the time. Take a minute to examine what type of mirror you have at your home or office. Some mirrors are concave out and some are flat, for different purposes. The flat mirror serves to absorb energy while the concave outward mirror serves to reflect away energies. ATM

Chiromancy: The Lines (1) Palmists look at three main lines: the heart line, the head line, and the life line. The heart line is the first of the major lines examined by a reader. It is found towards the top of the palm, under the fingers. In some traditions, the line is read as starting from the edge of the palm under the little finger and flowing across the palm towards the thumb; in others, it is seen as starting under the fingers and flowing toward the outside edge of the palm. This line is said to represent matters of the heart, both physical and metaphorical. Those who practice palmistry believe it can indicate emotional stability, romantic perspectives, depression, and stoicism, in addition to various aspects of cardiac health. The next line identified by palmists is the head line. This line starts at the edge of the palm under the index finger and flows across the palm towards the outside edge. Often, the head line is joined with the life line at inception. This line is

said to represent the person’s mind and the way it works, including learning style, communication style, intellectualism, and thirst for knowledge. It is also believed to indicate a preference for creative or analytical approaches to information (i.e., right brain or left brain). Finally, readers look at perhaps the most controversial line on the hand, the life line. This line extends from the edge of the palm above the thumb and travels in an arc towards the wrist. This line is believed to represent the person’s vitality and vigor, physical health and general well being. The life line is also believed to reﬂect major life changes, including cataclysmic events, physical injuries, and relocations. Contrary to popular belief, modern palmists generally do not believe that the length of a person’s life line is tied to the length of a person’s life. ATM

Kodokan Judo: Japan’s Cultural Gift to the World  By Doug Clark (Sandan, 3rd Degree Black Belt in Judo)

Most Americans today are familiar with such foreign terms as Karate, Tae Kwon Do, and Kung Fu. We all commonly see these martial arts practiced on television, movies, and in Martial Arts schools present in our communities. Though Japanese Judo is the oldest Asian Martial Art taught and practiced in the U.S., it is perhaps the least well known in the U.S. today. Many younger Americans now either don’t know what Judo is, or only recognize the name from watching an old James Bond film or some 1960s TV program. Regrettably, most Americans really don’t know what Judo is really all about, and why it is truly Japan’s unique cultural gift to the world. Judo was developed by Professor Jigoro made several unique observations. First, Kano, who was born during the period in Japthere was no systematic approach to teachanese history known as the Meji Restoration. ing the techniques, or in classifying the techThe Meji Restoration occurred in the late 19th niques used in Ju Jutsu. Specifically, there century and was characterized by Japan’s inwas no underlying principle governing how creased contact and ties with Europe and the the techniques worked. Second, Kano noted United States. This resulted in a “Westernizathat one school only practiced Kata ( pre-artion” of Japan to some degree, with the inranged fighting forms), while the other school troduction and incorporation of many western only practiced actual fighting. So, Professor practices into Japanese culture (this period Kano sought to find the underlying principles was loosely described…though not always of how the techniques worked, and how they accurately, in the recent film “The Last Samushould be applied. He concluded that no matrai”). As Professor Kano was born during ter what the technique is, three important this transitional period, he himself became a elements had to be present in order for the transitional figure in Japanese history. Professor Kano, who spoke and wrote fluent English, was well educated and came from a wealthy family. Because of his poor health as a child he became involved in Ju Jutsu training as a young boy in order to strengthen his body. Ju Jutsu, often translated as the “gentle art”, was an unarmed form of self-defense and combat used by the Samurai, which reached its peak in development during the Tokugawa period (16001867). Though he studied many forms of Ju Jutsu, Professor Kano focused his training on two schools: Tenshin Shinyo Ryu and Kito Ryu. The Tenshin Shinyo Ryu emphasized grappling and striking techniques, while the Kito Ryu school focused on throwing Performed at Tour of Asia organized by UCF Asian Student Association techniques. Professor Kano

techniques to be successful: Kuzushi (breaking the balance of your opponent), Tsukuri ( the proper placement of your body relative to your opponent), and Kake ( the actual execution of the technique). Kano then studied the major techniques of Ju Jutsu and applied these principles to them, and then discarded those techniques that were not efficient and had no rational principle of operation behind them. This led Professor Kano ultimately to one of his major insights, which was the principle of Seiroykyu Zenyo, or the principle of maximum efficient use of power. In other words, no matter what your objective is, you should find the most efficient use of your physical and mental powers to achieve that objective. Professor Kano’s next major insight was to combine the practice of Kata and actual fighting (Randori, or free practice) into one system. Finally, Kano believed that the ultimate goal of training should not be merely self-defense, but instead should be the betterment of oneself, and the creation of an individual who could better serve one’s community and society. This led Professor Kano to his next major principle: Jita Kyoei (mutual welfare and benefit). Judo should be practiced in such a way that everyone benefits and improves. The person that you train with is no longer your enemy, but is your partner. Thus, Kano systematized the techniques of Ju Jutsu, discarding those techniques that were not efficient, and then named his new system Judo, or the Gentle Way. The complete name is Kodokan Judo, where Kodokan means the place where the way of Judo is practiced and studied. Judo then clearly stood apart from Ju Jutsu because of its emphasis on the application of scientific principle to the use of technique and on the focus on self-improvement and contribution to society by the individual. After proving himself and the effectiveness of his new Judo, Professor Kano managed to get Judo incorporated into the Japanese Educational system.

Incidentally, Kano was also responsible for the introduction of many Western sports into Japan. Professor Kano realized that those qualities that made Judo attractive and beneficial to the Japanese population also made them of potential benefit to all people of the world. He therefore sent out “Judo Ambassadors” to all parts of the world to introduce and spread Judo to foreign nations. In fact, U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt studied Judo under Professor Yamashita around 19021904. Judo was also offered at Yale University and the U.S. Naval Academy during this time. Likewise, clubs in England and France began to emerge. Judo began to be known as the “Gentleman’s form of self-defense. As a result of his efforts, Professor Kano was selected as the first Asian to serve on the International Olympic Committee. Shortly before his death, Kano managed to secure Japan as the next venue for the Olympics. Unfortunately the outbreak of the Second World War prevented that from happening, and it was not until 1964 that Japan finally got to host the Olympics, at which time Judo was introduced as an Olympic Sport ( the first Martial Art in the Olympics). Judo is the most popular Martial Art Most Americans don’t know that Judo is also the most popular Martial Art practice worldwide. Though the home of Judo is in Japan, and at the Kodokan, Judo is now governed by the International Judo Federation. Unlike many other Martial Arts, Judo is the same throughout the world. Whether you practice in Japan, Brazil, or Uganda, everyone is practicing the same Judo. Though each country adds its own unique elements to the body that is now “modern Judo”, Judo still retains the essential and traditional Japanese elements that made it unique, and what Professor Kano tried so hard to preserve and share with the world. There are two ways to practice Judo, Randori (free practice, similar to sparring), and Kata ( pre-arranged forms practice). Judo is composed of three major types of techniques: Nage Waza (throwing techniques), Katame Waza ( holding, pinning, & choking techniques), and Atemi Waza ( striking techniques). The first two groups are practiced

in Randori and competition, but due to the dangerous nature of the Atemi Waza, they are only practiced under the controlled conditions of Kata. Judo has been used as one of the major elements of self-defense training for police and military throughout the world for the past 70 years. Many of the popular forms of grappling today (i.e. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu) took their techniques from Judo. In fact, the origins of the Gracie family Brazilian Jiu Jitsu come from the instruction their family received from a Japanese Judo expert named Maeda.

Metro Orlando JudoKai was created in 2005. Our club is not about self-promotion or proﬁt seeking, but instead is about the promotion of the principles, values, and techniques of Kodokan Judo. It is our desire to provide quality instruction and training that is in keeping with the traditional principles established by the Kodokan. The teaching staff at Metro Orlando JudoKai includes Mr. Kyong won Jung, who is a former International Judo competitor and coach from Korea. He has trained with the Korean Olympic & National teams, and has studied under the top Korean Judo coaches, as well as several famous Japanese coaches. Mr. Jung is our Competition Instructor and Juniors Coach. We are also extremely honored to have Ms Betty Stamm as our Senior Technical Advisor and Instructor. Sensei Stamm is herself a former international Judo competitor, and was the 1992 US Women’s Olympic Team Manager. She is

also one of the highest ranked women in the United States. She has studied with the top Japanese Judo Sensei in this country, as well as having traveling extensively abroad during her Judo career. In addition to being a national Judo referee, Sensei Stamm also founded the University of Central Florida Judo Club in the early 1980s. In keeping with the international nature of Judo, Metro Orlando JudoKai is composed of Judoka (those who practice Judo) from many different nations. We have club members from Japan, Korea, Brazil, Italy, Russia, and more. Over the past year Metro Orlando JudoKai has hosted visiting Judoka from Scotl a n d , England, Sweden, G e r m a n y, and Japan. In addition to other Judoka visiting us, we have also had students and Black Belts from other Martial Arts come to study the throwing & grappling techniques of Judo with us. This includes Martial Artists from Brazilian JiuJitsu, Karate, Kung Fu, Wrestling, Mixed Martial Arts (MMA), and Boxing. Our Club is afﬁliated with USA Judo, which is the ofﬁcial body for Judo recognized by the U.S. Olympic Committee. Our Judo program is offered on Tuesday & Thursday evenings from 6:30 – 8:30 PM at Chelle Stack’s Gymnastics in Winter Park.

Between Ignorance And Enlightenment 



An Enlightened Life

Enlightened Life: Shoulder responsibilities Live according to circumstances and keep an open mind Understand ourselves Treasure Life

As our lives pass from day to day, some of us drift aimlessly while others strive diligently to discover the meaning of their existence. The latter is pursued by one who lives an enlightened life. It is very important way of living. How do we lead such a life? I suggest the following four guidelines: 1. Shoulder responsibilities To lead an enlightened life, we must shoulder responsibilities instead of passing them on to others. Furthermore, we must not keep only the favorable for ourselves and push the unfavorable on to others. For example, a person late for a meeting may give many excuses for tardiness, such as trafﬁc congestion, heavy rain, a visit from a friend, or an unexpected phone call. Unwilling to assume the responsibility of being tardy, this person blames others. That is why I say the meaning of life is realized through assuming responsibilities. 2. Live according to circumstances and keep an open mind In our daily lives, we should not be stubborn or rigid; nor should we restrict our concerns only to ourselves. There are times when a person must also consider the family, the community, and, even further, the nation and all sentient beings. When we constantly care about the well-being of others, we broaden our perspective. Subsequently, we are able to live in harmony with our circumstances. 3. Understand ourselves The most lamentable human defect is our failure to understand ourselves. We sometimes accuse others of not understanding us when, in fact, we often neither understand nor know ourselves very deeply. If we control ourselves and behave in an orderly manner, we will understand ourselves more clearly. To do this, we must ask ourselves some difﬁcult question. How kind and compassionate am I? How much wisdom and strength do I really have? If we understand ourselves, we are not far from awakening. 4. Treasure Life Life is indeed very precious, and treasuring life is cherishing oneself. How do we treasure life? To conserve time is to treasure life; to conserve resources is to treasure life; to conserve friendship is to treasure life.  By Venerable Master Hsing Yun www.ibps.org/florida

Dressing the Part

Indian National Costume Nothing is more exquisite as the traditional Indian dress. The ﬂavor of Indian costume is sensed through movement, drape and detail. India boasts an extremely rich and varied textile heritage, where each region has a variation of the unique native costume and traditional attire. Indian clothing is popular for its colorfulness and grace, its uniqueness lies in its geographical diversities, natural wealth, vast population and wealth of personalities.

For Her Historically, the Hindu woman’s dress has evolved from contacts with other cultures. Spinning and weaving machines, mechanized printing and new chemicals from the West have inﬂuenced the availability of dress materials. However, this has not altered the traditional values that favor the women’s saris and other garments which retain their traditional appearance. The sari continues to remain the preferred and most important item of dress for most Indian women. The sari is a length of cloth measuring 13-26 feet long and about 4 feet wide which is draped around the entire body. Most of the fabric is pleated at the waist and then wound around to make a skirt or a pair of trousers, with the remaining yards swept across the upper body, covering at least one shoulder and sometimes veiling the head.

For Him The men in India are found in more conventional western clothing. Shirts and trousers are worn by men from all regions in India. However, men in villages are still more comfortable in traditional attire. The men wear Sherwani, Lungi and Kurta- Pajama. The Sherwani is a coat like garment, ﬁtted close to the body, of knee-length or longer, fastened with buttons. The coat top is paired with a baggy pant, tied with a string at the waist, and tight around the legs and ankles. The ensemble is an elegant attire for men and mostly worn during ceremonies. The Lung: The traditional lungi originated in the south and today, is worn by men and women alike. It is simply a short length of material worn around the thighs, similar to the sarong. The Kurta-Pyjama: The Kurta or the top is a knee length shirt which is adorned in mostly white or pastel colors. Today, Kurtas are made out of the most wonderful and colorful of fabrics. Pyjama are like loose trousers with a string tie at the waist.

The Whole Ensemble The Indian costume is incomplete without the adornment of body jewelry . The women’s hair is ornamented with gold and silver, as are the ears, nose, and neck. A girdle adorns the shapely waist. Bangles are commonly seen on women’s wrist and ankles, and remains a popular accessory today, not only in Indian culture, but has been adapted by global fashion.  By Suzy Guttler

Orlando Japan Festival 2006 オーランド日本祭り — on Sunday, Dec.17th, at Rangetsu of Tokyo

Again, a whole year is going to fly away…Japan Festival is next month! Mark December 17th (Sunday) on your calendar at Rangetsu, 1:00pm-4:00pm. It’s going to be three fun and informative hours. This festival is a nostalgic event for me as I now live on the other side of the earth from Japan. It’s a precious opportunity for Japanese who live here to be exposed to the Japanese culture and introduce it to the community. The festival is held at the largest authentic Japanese restaurant in town, Rangetsu of Tokyo, which displays little red lanterns all around the eaves. The architectural style and its Japanese garden present a solemn and peaceful atmosphere authentically representative of Japanese landscape and design. This is a wonderful opportunity to FEEL Japan through the food, music, dance and shopping, or even from just being there. You can experience one of the Japan’s favorite events ‘Ennichi’ 縁日 which is a traditional fair. The food will be sold at ‘Yatai’ 屋台 food stands. There will be a sequence of different performances on the stage. One of the exciting activities there will be hunting ‘Japanese’ stuff for great price-savings, provided by Mitsukoshi. Here’s some very important info; All funds raised in this festival support Orlando Hoshuko (Japanese supplementary school) to provide better education to the children. As I wrote in the last (October) issue, you will see the students’ activities in this festival. “Our special-feature programs will be the raffles, bazaar, Taiko drumming and classical Japanese dance. Don’t miss buying raffle tickets to win valuable prizes such as air-tickets to Japan (provided by IACE Travel) or dining certificates for Japanese restaurants. Our bazaar is eye-popping. You can buy Japanese products for less than half the regular price (sponsored by Mitsukoshi). It will be interesting to try Japanese folkcraft toys such as a top, a battledore or a cup and ball, too. We prepare different types of food and drink for $1 $5. For example, Yakisoba, Yakitori, Udon, Oden, Gyoza, Takoyaki, curry & rice as well as Sushi. And of course, Japanese beer and Sake will be featured. Also, of significant note, the Consulate General of Japan in Miami supports this festival and even has a booth at this event. They distribute booklets and brochures about Japan in their booth. This is the best time to ask the staff about Japan,” says Mr. Kikuchi, the manager of Rangetsu. ATM

Singing in Tampa

the audiences sat and watched patiently until all performances were over. Toward the end of that night, a surprise group of lion dancers showed up out of nowhere and performed wholeheartedly. I am sure both, kids and parents, enjoyed every bit of the night like I did. ATM

 By Lena Ung

I am so happy to be able to adapt to Florida’s environment so quickly after moving here ﬁve months ago from California. Though summer weather here is not as nice, the Vietnamese and Chinese communities around where I live, Tampa, have been tremendously generous. I have made many new friends. In the Tampa Bay area, I was able

to get to know my Asian community through many public functions. Recently on Oct 6, 2006, I was invited to sing at Phat Phap Temple in St. Petersburg for a Moon Celebration Function. I was socked and touched by how many people attended that night. I can’t believe there are that many Asia, especially Vietnamese, in the St. Petersburg area. That night, the Phat Phap Temple provided Moon cakes, candies and even lanterns for kids and teenagers. Besides my singing, there were dances and skits on the stage. Though there was not any air condition in the room where I perform,

Members of the Asian American Chamber of Commerce gathered together on October 25th, 2006 at the Ming Court on International Drive for the Election of the 2007 Board of Directors. This event celebrated the many accomplishments of past officers throughout the existence of the Chamber, as well as presented members with a new board that will navigate the organization into the new year, setting goals and seeing through their implementation for 2007. The election event was a positive success. Over 40 members of the AACC from across Florida attended - 34 votes being casted, 4 of them sent in thru proxy. The 2007 Elected Board of Directors are as follows: Nina Yon - Vice President, Paul Liau, Shally Wong, Becky Szymanski,

Becky Szymanski - Past President 2000

Chrsitine Ho and Rina Brothers as Directors. The Asian American Chamber of Commerce currently has over 100 active members, representing 80 different businesses in the Central Florida area. The results of the election, a well as the unified coming together of members of various business sectors of our community emphasized the importance of networking in today’s business world, and the advantages that can be created for ourselves, each other, and the association as a whole in the Central Florida business community. In today’s market, success is not necessarily measured by what you know, nor how much you know, but who you know. The Asian American Chamber of Commerce’s mission is to promote the development and growth of Asian American-owned

businesses, through networking and other forms of support, to represent and give voice to Asian American business interests through increased involvement in the community affairs as a united group, and to open a two way door to business opportunities in international trade and global commerce by tapping the human resources in our midst. As newly elected Vice President, Nina Yon states, “Having more networking events is one of the main reasons why people join AACC. We also need to be more involved in the community, and achieve greater recognition for our board members in the community through 2007.” As Vice President, Nina hopes to have networking events every other month for members, new and old, to come together and share support and business ideas with each other. “Eventually, when we have regularly scheduled events, the non-members will see the benefits of joining AACC and hopefully, we will be able to increase membership!” The Asian American Chamber of Commerce Elections for 2007 Board of Directors was truly a success for the Asian American business community of Central Florida.

The Art of War Laying Plan

 By Jun Zhu

Warfare is essential to a nation. It is as important to a nation’s survival as life or the death. No one can afford not to pay attention to it. We’ll examine warfare in five aspects with seven metrics. The five aspects (see Figure 1) are: the way, the sky, the earth, the commander, and the organization. They are similar to a person that has a heart, a brain, and a body. The person breathes air and eats food. When you follow the way, or your heart, it will lead you fearlessly to your destiny. This aspect is the key because it establishes trust and the foundation. The sky is about the atmosphere: Ying vs. Yang like female vs. male; cold vs. hot; as well as seasonal changes. As paradox as the sky, the earth is related to the situation: far vs. near; difficult vs. easy; broad vs. narrow; death vs. life. The commander (see Figure 2) like the brain has also five elements: intellect, trust, love, courage and discipline. The organization (see Figure 3), or the body, includes three key components: structure, policy and supply. Once we have planned all five aspects, we’ll know the outcome based on seven key metrics (see Figure 4): the philosophy of chief, the capability of commander, the favoritism of environment, the efficiency of operation, the sufficiency of resources, the competency of personnel, and the effectiveness of reward system. Once the policy is set, the execution of the policy becomes the key. Chief wins battle by keeping only those commanders who respect and follow the policy. Other type of commanders can only lead the execution to desperation. The adaptability of the plan will carry out the ultimate outcome. Thus the flexibility and agility of the execution will transform the intention to desired results. The secret of winning a battle is to use deception. It is about stimulating your opponent to explore and explode their weakness to create favorable opportunities for your benefit. You help your opponent to create an illusion of the opposite of what you are doing and what you are going to do. Prior to each battle, it is necessary to strategize and prepare the battle with detail analysis in a big picture schema. If the findings are projecting more favorable outcome, then we have 80% to 90% chance to win the battle. If they are projecting less favorable outcome, then we have little chance to win. If you are uncertain about the projection, then you just warrant yourself a sure loss. ATM

Life in Style Beauty on the Go  By Suzy Guttler

With hectic Thanksgiving travels right around the corner, it’s time to prep our beauty kits! As an events planner traveling to a different city each week, I always make it a point to arrive at my destination looking fresh and feeling great, even after a long flight, unexpected delays or an annoying passenger, of course-sitting right next to you. Sephora.com has a section for “flight-friendly” beauty products. The minis of favorite makeup, hair, and bath products are grouped together, with helpful instructions on how to pack them in a clear plastic bag for TSA approval. They’re great for long road trips, a quick touch up on your flight or even freshening up at the airport during your layover. Here are a couple of my favorites:

●Fresh Sugar Lip Balm SPF 15, keeps lips moisturized on the ground and in the air. $22.50

●L’Occitane Shea Butter Hand Cream - Travel Size, this supercreamy balm penetrates quickly to proect, nourish, and moisturize hands. Great for traveling to colder climates.$9

●Bathina Touch Me Then Try To Leave Me Cream To Go. This luxurious body cream doubles up as a fragrance and keeps skin feeling soft and sexy. $12

●Caudalie Beauty Elixir, This precious elixir smoothes, helps to minimize the appearance of pores, and gives complexion a burst of radiance. $15.

Glowing Skin

●Benefit Benetint Pocket Pal. This glossy color wand is the best rosy lip and cheek stain -paired with a shiny clear gloss on the other end. $18.

Traveling to cooler climates than what our Florida skin is used to calls for a few extra steps to keep skin glowing, from Thanksgiving weekend all the way to the cooler days of Christmas. Follow these few simple tips to great looking skin all season long! • Use a moisturizer. Everyday. Choose a highly protective day cream which provides for maximum sun protection. Creamier, water-in-oil emulsions are best to keep skin moisturized. Chapped lips are also often the most noticeable problem in cooler climates. Use a highly moisturizing lip balm to protect lips. • Exfoliate at least twice a week. This will help rid old skin cells and keep skin rejuvenated. Exfoliation allows your skin to retain its natural moisture, all the while reducing fine lines and visible pores. • Drink plenty of water, at least eight to ten glasses per day. Skin tends to dehydrate during cooler days and the water water will provide skin with the hydration it needs, plus helps detox your entire bodily system. • Finally, get enough sleep! Nothing is better on your skin than a good night’s rest-consistently! Adequate rest time maintains the oxygen levels in your body, which assists in cell renewal and skin regeneration. Seven to nine hours each night is ideal. Magazine Online at www.asiatrendmagazine.com

Fit for the Holidays

 By Suzy Guttler

With the holiday parties and new years’ bashes right around the corner, it’s an absolute must to look glamorous in time for the season’s every festivity. Who knows-this could be your lucky year to score a date with tall, dark and Asian. This only means one thing-now’s time to start dropping some pounds, and toning that ﬁgure to look fabulously desirable in your little black holiday dress.”

Cardiovascular exercise helps you burn excess calories, improves your cardiovascular health, and gives your body more energy.

We’ve put together a quick guide to easy weight loss, without the overrated starving-yourself-to-death scheme (cuz you know that never works!) • Write down your weight loss goals. Make sure each goal is realistic, and that you have included a time line. It’s important to commit these goals to paper, and put them where you will see them each day. This way, you’ll have no excuse to cop out after the first few days. • Drink lots of water. Stay hydrated by drinking between 9 and 10 8ounce glasses a day. • Eat a nutritious breakfast. Start your day off right with a nutritious meal, and include some form of protein. For maximum energy and concentration throughout the day, include complex carbohydrates, such as natural whole-grain cereal or bread, as well as a low-fat protein, such as skim milk, cottage cheese, or low-fat yogurt and a serving of fresh fruit. A bowl of fiber-rich oats and bran flakes (about 1 1/2 cups) with 8 ounces of low-fat milk is nearly the perfect breakfast. Make it portable by replacing the milk with vanilla yogurt and mixing it in a to-go container. Increase the fiber and vitamins by adding 1/4 cup of nuts or fresh or dried fruit, such as chopped pecans or peaches. • Watch what you eat. This does not mean to go on a strict diet. Simply, watch for portion size and choose fruits and grains over foods high in fat content. Also, do not skip meals, in fact, eat more frequently. Eating small frequent meals Magazine Online at www.asiatrendmagazine.com

help to balance your calorie intake throughout the day. Instead of eating 3 big meals, try to eat 5 - 6 smaller meals throughout the day. Finally, stop eating after dinner. Just stop. • Finally, hit the gym! Get in the habit of exercising every day. Your daily exercise regimen doesn’t have to be strenuous. It just needs to be consistent. For best weight loss results, commit to at least 30 minutes of combined cardio and muscle toning four to fives times a week. Cardio

Your workout program should include a combination of warm ups, cardio and weight training exercises.

Research shows that high intensity training for shorter periods of time is more effective at burning fat than low intensity, long duration training, and the higher the intensity of the cardio, the greater the fat loss. It not only helps you burn excess calories, but also improves your cardiovascular health, and helps improve your endurance. The simplest way to look at it is: if you burn more calories than you consume, then you will lose fat! It’s as simple as that, really. 20 minutes a day is not hard .Get on the tread mill and be on your way to weight loss! Weight Training Muscle toning and weight training is an important part of weight loss. Most people associate weight training with weight gain, little do they realize that strength and resistance training is one of the best ways to lose weight. This is because strength training helps to increase your body’s metabolism and the amount of muscle mass in your body, which in turns allows your body to burn more calories each day. Hit the weight machines at the gym. It’s quick and will fit right into your daily workout schedule. 10 to 12 reps of each exercise per muscle group will do the trick. As with all exercise, you should warm-up first. Marching or jogging on the spot for a few minutes interspersed with some gentle stretches will do the trick. The secret of successful body toning is regularity. If you do this exercise sequence every other day you’ll start to see results in a few weeks. ATM

GOING THE DISTANCE FOR HEALTH & SAFETY ORLANDO (October 17, 2006) –

A delegation of Chinese health care workers traveled more than 8 thousand miles to make a special visit to learn about the Orange County Health Department. The 4 members of the Chinese delegation consisted of Directors from the Department of Disease Control in the Zhabei District of Shanghai and that area’s Community Health Service Centers. With the help of an interpreter, the delegation and Orange County Health Department Leaders traded ideas on how to handle disease control, environmental health issues, maternal and child health, school health, dental care services, and a variety of other programs. The meeting helped spearhead a partnership between the Orange County Health Department and the Shanghai Health District, and it was made possible after Orange County Health Department Director; Kevin M. Sherin, M.D. wrote a letter officially requesting the visit. “This meeting helps open the door and the lines of communication in hopes of understanding and sharing vital health information. This information could be helpful in not only protecting the health and safety of Orange County’s residents, but also our visitors, of which more than 2 million travel from overseas each year,” said Doctor Sherin. The delegation is also making stops in Cleveland, Washington D.C., and Los Angeles.  By Dain R. Weister

Smoking: Steps to Help You Break the Habit (1)  Puxiao Cen, M.D. Why does it seem so hard to stop smoking? Smoking causes changes in your body and in the way you act. The changes in your body are caused by an addiction to nicotine. The changes in the way you act developed over time as you bought cigarettes, lit them and smoked them. These changes have become your smoking habit.

Immediate reasons to stop

Long-term reasons to stop

• Bad breath and stained teeth • Bad smell in clothes and hair and on skin • Lower athletic ability • Cough and sore throat • Faster heartbeat and raised blood pressure • Risk of passive smoking to people around you • Cost of smoking

• Toxic chemicals in cigarette smoke • Risk of lung cancer and many other types of cancer • Risk of heart disease • Serious breathing problems • Wrinkles • Risk of stomach ulcers and acid reflux • Risk of gum disease • Risk of damage to babies of pregnant women who smoke • Setting a bad example for your children

How should I get ready to stop smoking? Set a stop date 2 to 4 weeks from now so you’ll have time to get ready. Write down your personal reasons for stopping. Be specific. Keep your list with you so you can look at it when you feel the urge to smoke. To help you understand your smoking habit, keep a diary of when and why you smoke. Using information from this diary, you and your doctor can make a plan to deal with the things that make you want to smoke. Just before your stop date, get rid of all of your cigarettes, matches, lighters and ashtrays.

Margaret Chan Of Hong Kong Chosen As 陳馮富珍當選世衛總幹事 Next WHO Director General Margaret Chan of Hong Kong (China) has been elected the next director general of the World Health Organization (WHO) by a large majority of member governments, according to sources. The 59-year-old obstetrician, who led Hong Kong through the 2003 SARS crisis, topped a five-person shortlist of candidates released overnight ahead of a final round of voting in Geneva. Chan joined the WHO where she has specialized in bird flu pandemic preparations after a controversial stint as Hong Kong health director during which her department was criticized for its slow initial response to the SARS outbreak.

About WHO The World Health Organization is the United Nations specialized agency for health. It was established on 7 April 1948. WHO’s objective is the attainment by all peoples of the highest possible level of health. The international profile of the WHO, which has a two-year budget of US$3.3 billion, has increased dramatically in recent years with the emergence of global health emergencies such as AIDS and threats from new diseases including SARS and bird flu.
