A Bit of History About
Christmas Music By Ron Nethercutt
B
elieve it or not; it is now December. I'm sure you have all been listening to Christmas music for several weeks. Actually the Philippines starts celebrating Christmas in September, so it has been four months for us. As a director for DWAU FM 104.1, the station has enjoyed seeking new Christmas music and providing information about the artists and background material. We hope that little information will make for more enjoyable listening. It with that in mind, that I share some of that information with ROTIans on the December ROTI Breadbasket. You perhaps knew that “White Christmas” is the most widely recorded song, but did you know it has been sung by over 500 artists? When written by Irvin Berlin he had no idea that it would sell over 100 million copies. Bing Crosby's version itself sold over 50 million copies. According to the Guinness Book of World Records, that makes it the bestselling single of all time. And that folks is a lot of royalty money!
But another Christmas song is now in the public domain, which means it can be recorded by anyone without paying royalties. Originally written in 1857, it was titled “One Horse Open Sleigh,” and first recorded in 1898 on an Edison cylinder. The song became a part of a medley entitled “Sleigh Ride Party” and was originally sung for Thanksgiving. Well over 200 artists have sung the song with the title of “Jingle Bells” and it was the first song to be broadcast from space. Astronauts Tom Stafford and Wally Schirra sang it to Mission Control on December 16, 1965 after reporting, “We have an object going north to south in a polar orbit.” Their charade continued by saying, “We see a command module and eight smaller modules in front,” before playing “Jingle Bells” on a small harmonica.

NOV DEC 2014
Christmas songs may be in two categories; sacred or religious songs which celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, and secular songs that tell of Santa Claus and the winter season. You might ask what is a 'carol?' The word goes back to pagan celebrations during the winter solace when people danced to show thanks for another year. In 1223 St. Francis of Assisi wrote a Latin hymn “Psalmun in Nativitate” which become popular in Italy. Carols were frequently heard in the 14th century as popular religious songs and would contain both English and Latin text. In the early 1800s a book was published by William B. Sandys which contained “The First Noel” and “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen,” which are still a part of today's Christmas repertoire. Some date earlier, “Hark the Herald Angels Sing” and “Joy to the World” were written in the 1700s. Records show that “We Wish You a Merry Christmas,” was written in England during the 16th century. As the 20th century came about, Christmas songs progressed very slowly until “Santa Claus Is Coming to Town” was penned in 1934, the same year that “Winter Wonderland” entered the list of Christmas songs. In 1941 a song entitled “Carol of the Drum” was written and promptly became known and “Little Drummer Boy.” In 1948, Billy Hayes wrote “Blue Christmas” which was recorded by Ernest Tubb in 1949, but has always been associated with Elvis Presley in 1957.
If you are asked to name the eight original reindeer, you might reply Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, and Blitzen. However the name of the seventh reindeer is Donder, not Donner. It is thought that Johnny Marks, the author of “Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer” may have changed the name to Donner to flow more smoothly. Gene Autry, the famous movie that made the song famous didn't write “Rudolf,” but was responsible for another equally popular song, “Here Come Santa Claus.” It is said that he wrote it when riding in a parade just ahead of a float carrying Santa Claus and heard the children shouting “here comes Santa Claus, here comes Santa Claus.”
However all Christmas songs are not written with a 'merry' theme. Some are more hopeful and contain a wish of better things to come. Think about the words to “Please Come Home for Christmas,” “Blue Christmas,” and “I'll Be Home for Christmas.” Many of these bring thoughts of loved ones in far places during the Christmas season when we wish the family and loved ones were near. Judy Garland said the original text to “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas,” was too sad. Here are the words she was originally given: Have yourself a merry little Christmas It may be your last Next year we may all be living in the past These were changed to:
The 40s saw many of the songs we still sing, such as, “I'll Be Home for Christmas,” Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas,” “The Christmas Song,” “Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer,” and even “All I Want for Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth.” The growth of Christmas holiday music continued with even more velocity perhaps due to the advancement of radio and motion pictures. Our ears were soon joined by “Frosty the Snowman,” “Silver Bells” “Santa Baby,” and “I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus.”
Have yourself a merry little Christmas Let your heart be light Next year all our trouble will be out of sight. I hope that the preceding bit of Christmas music history provided you with a better insight into the music you've been listening to, but mainly, I wish this is a small Christmas present from me to you.

It's a great idea to do this, because it reminds us to talk about subjects that we might otherwise overlook during our busy Rotary year. But we all know that every topic on our calendar – from fellowship to our Foundation – is impor-tant. All of them are part of what makes Rotary what it is, and what makes all of us Rotarians. In Rotary, December is Family Month. Looking back on my years as a Rotarian, I have seen how important family is in Rotary – and how important Rotary can be to our families.
MESSAGE
if you take a look at the Rotary calendar, it's easy to see where our priorities as an organization lie. The Rotary year begins in July; in August we mark Membership Month, in September we celebrate New Generations, October is for vocational service, and so on, turning our attention to different topics that are important in Rotary.
GARY C. K. HUANG Rotary Club of Taipei
My wife, Corinna, chose to join Rotary just a few months ago, after many years as a Rotary spouse. All three of our children are also Rotarians. All of them joined their own club, in their own time. All of them have found unique inter-ests in Rotary. As we have watched them find their own paths, we have been struck by how wonderful it is to have so many members of our family involved in Rotary service. Rotary gives us something good that we can all do to-gether. With Rotary, we always have interesting things to talk about at dinner. We are all involved in different ser-vice, in different clubs, so when we sit down together, we are talking about humanitarian needs of every kind, in every part of the world. There is always something new to learn. Our conversations are also a wonderful way to teach our children, through our own actions, what is really important in life. They learn about what life is like in different parts of the world, and how all of us have an obligation to help oth-ers when we can. I can think of no better lessons to teach our families than the lessons of Rotary service. I hope that in this Rotary year, many of you will encourage your family members to join Rotary, Rotaract, or Interact. Bringing your family into Rotary doesn't just Light Up Rotary – it lights up your own lives as well.

MESSAGE from THE ROTARY FOUNDATION TRUSTEE CHAIR
I
In his inaugural address, U.S. President John F. Kennedy made this often quoted exhortation: "Ask not what your country can do for you – ask what you can do for your country." The same sentiments could be applied to the membership of Rotary.
JOHN KENNY Trustee Chair 2014-15
Whether Rotary will survive or whether it will falter, whether our service will mean much to many or little to few, whether Rotary is known with respect or seen as a relic of days gone by, will be up to each and every Rotar-ian. There is so much to be done in our world – to educate the illiterate, feed the hungry, provide shelter to the homeless. Our world is still ill divided, and the gap is not shrinking between the haves and the have-nots. But to whom much has been given, much is expected. The most important people in Rotary are not the directors of the Board or the trustees of our Rotary Foundation, but the individual Rotarians working quietly in their clubs to assist those in communities who are less fortunate than themselves, for whom they know the need is great. This is Rotary at its finest: Rotarians identifying a need and re-sponding to it. For many, this is a special time of year. May it bring to each of you the blessings that it offers. As we Light Up Rotary, let us remember that the future of our Foundation is in your hands. John Kenny Foundation Trustee Chair

NEW CLUB INVOICING BEGINS JANUARY 2015 Clubs should update membership data before January 1 to receive an accurate invoice from RI
Update your member list by 1 January Starting in January, clubs no longer will be able to make adjustments to their club invoice, so be sure to update your membership information by 1 January to ensure that your invoice balance is correct.

THE John Hewko General Secretary Rotary International
CLUBINVOICE
Dear Club Officer,
What you need to know about the new club invoice
B
y now you have heard about the new club invoice that’s coming this January. The invoice will arrive ready to be paid, so please be sure your member lists are current in Rotary International’s database by 1 January. No adjustments will be made.
The way membership dues and subscription costs are billed is changing. Clubs will no longer receive an eight-page semiannual report to calculate their fees. Instead, beginning in January, Rotary will send clubs a new, one-page invoice that clearly states the payment due.
What’s in it for me? Instead of receiving a packet, you will receive a simple, 1-page invoice clearly stating what you owe. You no longer need to calculate your invoice, which saves you time. In fact, you will not be able to make adjustments after receiving your invoice. Keeping your records current will enable you to see your club’s progress on its membership goals each month. How does it affect me? The biggest change for club officers is that it will be even more important to keep your club’s membership information current in Rotary’s database. The accuracy of your invoice will depend on the accuracy of that information. Club secretaries are responsible for updating member lists every 30 days or as changes occur, by 1 July and 1 January at the very latest. They are also responsible for reporting incoming club officers by 1 February of each year. The change to the club invoice process also means that the information in your officer manuals is incorrect. This document explains the new policy. What can I do to get ready? Make sure you have a Rotary.org account. Help other officers create one if they don’t already have one. Contact your Club and District Support representative or local Rotary office for support. Ÿ Learn how to update your member lists and pay club invoices through Rotary.org.
new
The number of active members in Rotary's database for your club on 1 January and 1 July will be used to calculate your club invoice. All membership and subscription updates should be made by 1 January for the January invoice. Incoming officers should be reported by 1 February. You can make sure your club is ready for the new invoice by reporting changes in your membership status to club officers as soon as possible. If you're a club leader, it's essential to update your club's membership data to receive a correct invoice.

REAL ESTATE The Rotary Foundation accepts gifts of real estate with a minimum appraised value of $25,000 (undeveloped property) and $100,000.

WHY UNITED DID NOT RUN THE CHARITY MILES PROGRAM THIS YEAR
W
e have no idea why United did not run the program this year and are very disappointed. It should be noted that Rotary has been a partner in the United Airlines Charity Miles program for sixteen years. This program allows us to receive donations of United Airlines miles and hold them in a central account that does not expire. We can issue tickets from this account thereby allowing clubs and districts to collect donations from members or non-members to secure airline tickets on United and their Star Alliance partners that serve almost every destination in the Rotary world. While many wonderful programs supporting polio eradication, areas of focus and disadvantaged youths were supported over the last few years by our “winnings� in the ten million mile program, it should be noted many more self-funded programs were successfully accomplished by clubs and districts over the last sixteen years using our Rotary charity miles account. In the spirit of the holidays, members can continue this good work by donating miles that may expire or small amounts of miles that cannot be used for a ticket to the Rotary charity miles account. Clubs and districts can create their own programs by following the instructions that are attached. Best wishes,
AIRLINE MILES Through the United Airlines Mileage Plus Charity Miles program, you can donate miles to provide free airfare toward a club or district project.

Supporting The Rotary Foundation Should Help Clubs Retain Members, Does it? Posted: 19 Nov 2014 05:26 AM PST
A
ccording to the Rotary International (RI) Code of Policies, RI, the association, "...represents, protects, encompasses, and promotes the interests of its membership, and it exists to serve the membership." Rotary clubs are community based organizations. From their local social fabrics they attract and retain dues paying members - local people with enterprising minds. The Rotary Foundation (TRF) is an important and influential Rotary attribute. So here is a critical question that should be thoroughly examined: Does TRF help RI serve its membership? It should. It could. But when critically analyzed, does it? Members of local Rotary clubs the world over want to improve life for themselves, their families, their community, and the world - in that order. So let's analyze a particular scenario of the Share System from a local North American club's viewpoint. The club wants to fund a local $5,000 project that qualifies in one of Rotary's six areas of focus. Like many clubs, it has been told that if the club fronts $2,500, the project may qualify for a $2,500 match from District Designated Funds (DDF). That's plenty fair - a dollar-for-dollar match. But is it really a dollar-for-dollar match? This sample club, for instance, annually contributes $10,000 or more to the Annual Fund. The $10,000 is divided into $5,000 for DDF, $4,500 for the World Fund, and $500 for administrative costs. Again, that's fair. According to TRF rules, 50% of DDF can be used for local projects. Local club members, people with enterprising minds and without TRF branded on their brain, quickly calculate that the actual cost just to qualify, without any guarantees, to use DDF for its $5,000 project would be $12,500 ($10,000 three years ago + $2,500 to have on hand to for a match.) Okay. All Rotarians want to advance the fourth Object of Rotary and can do so by contributing to the World Fund. No problem. But under the above scenario isn't it only logical that local North American clubs in districts where TRF committees operate in similar fashion would think, "Let's just contribute $5,000 directly to the World Fund and use the other $5,000 for our local project now. The World Fund gets $4,750 instead of $4,500, and we save $2,500 that can be used for other projects. In addition, the club doesn't have to go through TRF and the district, wait three years, and then maybe get to use 25% of the $10,000 we contributed to TRF three years ago."Cap this thought process with the concept that some North American districts say that to be eligible to apply for DDF clubs must contribute $100 or more per capita to TRF's annual fund. So, getting logical once again wouldn't enterprising minds think along these lines: "Our first priority is to attract and retain members from our local social fabric. How does this help us?" Rotarians do like to support worthwhile projects throughout the world, but most, particularly new ones, want to make a difference in their local communities and, in our fast-paced world, do it with more speed and delivery. Records indicate that ten-year Rotarians donate 350% more per capita to TRF than two-year Rotarians.* So shouldn't TRF be interested in helping clubs retain members? Is that philosophical and marketing approach missing in TRF seminars throughout the world? *For confirmation, ask the RI director representing your Zone. 20

About APEC
What You Need to Know 26 - 29 JANUARY MANILA
APEC operates on the basis of non-binding commitments, open dialogue and equal respect for the views of all participants. Unlike the WTO or other multilateral trade bodies, APEC has no treaty obligations required of its participants. Decisions made within APEC are reached by consensus and commitments are undertaken on a voluntary basis. APEC is not a donor organisation. Instead, APEC activities are centrally funded by small annual contributions from APEC member economies - since 1999 these have totalled to around US$3.38 million each year. These contributions are used to fund a Secretariat in Singapore and various projects which support APEC's economic and trade goals. Some APEC economies also provide additional funds for projects which support APEC's trade and investment liberalisation and facilitation goals. Four categories have been developed for participation in APEC Working Group activities. These are • the 21 APEC member economies, • the APEC Secretariat , • APEC observers - the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) Secretariat, the Pacific Economic Cooperation Council (PECC) and the Pacific Islands Forum Secretariat (PIF), and • guest participants to the APEC process include a diverse range of participants from the public and private sectors.
A
PEC began as an informal dialogue group in 1989, but has since become the premier forum for facilitating economic growth, cooperation, trade and investment in the Asia-Pacific region. In 1993, an APEC Secretariat was established in Singapore to support the activities of the forum Key to achieving APEC's vision are what are referred to as the 'Bogor Goals' of free and open trade and investment in the AsiaPacific by 2010 for industrialised economies and 2020 for developing economies. These goals were agreed by APEC Economic Leaders in Bogor, Indonesia in 1994. To achieve these goals APEC member economies developed a framework in Osaka, Japan in 1995, which set out three key areas of cooperation. Sometimes known as the 'Three Pillars' of APEC, these are the areas of Trade and Investment Liberalisation, Business Facilitation, and Economic and Technical Cooperation. APEC has 21 members referred to as ‘member economies.’ The term ‘member economies’ is used because the APEC cooperative process is predominantly concerned with trade and economic issues, with members engaging with one another as economic entities. APEC's 21 member economies are: Australia; Brunei Darussalam; Canada; Chile; People's Republic of China; Hong Kong, China; Indonesia; Japan; Republic of Korea; Malaysia; Mexico; New Zealand; Papua New Guinea; Peru; The Republic of the Philippines; The Russian Federation; Singapore; Chinese Taipei; Thailand; United States of America; and Viet Nam. APEC and the WTO are complementary in that both are working towards the same goals of free and open trade and investment across borders. NOV DEC 2014

The Rotary Code of Conduct (formerly known as the Declaration of Rotarians in Businesses and Professions) provides a framework for ethical behaviour that all Rotarians can use, together with The FourWay Test, in their business and professional activities.
Rotary Code of Conduct As a Rotarian, I will 1. Exemplify the core value of integrity in all behaviors and activities 2. Use my vocational experience and talents to serve in Rotary 3. Conduct all of my personal, business, and professional affairs ethically, encouraging and fostering high ethical standards as an example to others 4. Be fair in all dealings with others and treat them with the respect due to them as fellow human beings 5. Promote recognition and respect for all occupations which are useful to society
The 4 Way Test Of the things we think, say or do 1. Is it the TRUTH? 2. Is it FAIR to all concerned? 3. Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS? 4. Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?
6. Offer my vocational talents: to provide opportunities for young people, to work for the relief of the special needs of others, and to improve the quality of life in my community 7. Honor the trust that Rotary and fellow Rotarians provide and not do anything that will bring disfavor or reflect adversely on Rotary or fellow Rotarians 8. Not seek from a fellow Rotarian a privilege or advantage not normally accorded others in a business or professional relationship
Paul Harris wrote: “Each Rotarian is a connecting link between the idealism of Rotary and their trade or profession".
