Rotary 'This Close' Campaign




Rotary Launches New Public Service Announcement Campaign Focused on Polio Eradication

Bill Gates leads list of international public figures 'This Close' to ending polio

EVANSTON, Ill., Jan. 31, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- After more than 25 years of hard work, Rotary and its partners are now "This Close" to eradicating polio, and a wide array of public figures and celebrities have signed on to help Rotary spread the word.

Headlined by Microsoft Corp. Chairman Bill Gates, this diverse lineup of influential leaders and personalities includes Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu, action movie star Jackie Chan, conservationist Jane Goodall, premier violinist Itzhak Perlman, Grammy Award winners A.R. Rahman, Angelique Kidjo and Ziggy Marley, golfing great Jack Nicklaus, and peace advocate Queen Noor of Jordan. In a series of print, broadcast and outdoor public service advertisements each uses a simple hand gesture to show Rotary is "This Close" to wiping out polio worldwide. Nicklaus, Perlman and Tutu are themselves survivors of this crippling disease.

"Polio eradication has benefited immensely from having Rotary's support," Bill Gates said today in his annual letter. "Rotary had the vision to get involved in 1985 and has kept polio eradication as its top priority." The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation has been a major supporter of the global campaign to wipe out polio.

Other notable figures star in regionalized versions of the "This Close" campaign around the world, such as South Korean ballerina Sue Jin Kang, Nigerian soccer star Nwankwo Kanu, and Indian movie star Amitabh Bachchan. The campaign also has a grassroots component in which local Rotary members recruit participants who are well-known at the community level, thus connecting the campaign at every level: local, national and international.

Broadcast television commercials feature a mix of celebrities and non-celebrities around the world saying, "We are this close to making history. We are this close to changing the world. We are this close to ending polio—all we need is you."

"Most people don't realize that polio still affects children in some parts of the world," said three-time Kentucky Derby winner and "This Close" participant jockey Calvin Borel. "I want to do my part in raising awareness to get the support needed to end this crippling disease once and for all. That's a milestone that everyone should want to be a part of."

Polio eradication has been Rotary's top priority for more than two decades. The international humanitarian service organization is a spearheading partner in the Global Polio Eradication Initiative, along with the World Health Organization, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and UNICEF.

Rotary club members worldwide have contributed more than $1 billion and countless volunteer hours to the polio eradication effort, and have recently pledged to raise an additional US$200 million to match $355 million in challenge grants from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. All of the resulting $555 million will be spent in support of eradication activities.

Great progress has been made, and the incidence of polio infection has plunged from about 350,000 cases in 1988 to fewer than 1,000 reported cases in 2010. More than two billion children have been immunized in 122 countries, preventing five million cases of paralysis and 250,000 pediatric deaths.

2011 Oscar Nominations are In

So the long awaited Oscar nominations are in and Jackie did not get even an outside look in for Best Supporting Actor. Despite many predictors giving him recognition for his part in 'The Karate Kid' apparently the folks over at the Academy didn't feel the same way. One reviewer said that Sony was backing 'The Social Network' over 'The Karate Kid' for nominations and given how many it got I guess they were right.

Shaolin Tops Box Office

Shaolin is at the top of the box office at the end of it's opening week earning 105 million yuan. It is also number one in Singapore and Taiwan.

China's passion for bombastic blockbusters continues to be insatiable with the latest epic to roll off the production line, director Benny Chan's star-studded Shaolin, dominating the domestic box office over the past week.


Chan's film - which cost US$29 million (21 million euros) to make and has gathered together the likes of Andy Lau, Jackie Chan, Nicholas Tse and Fan Bingbing - took 105 million yuan (11.6 million euros) in its first week of release in China, to leave its rivals in its wake.

Shaolin sees Lau playing a 1920s warlord who seeks help at the legendary Shaolin Temple after being betrayed by his off-sider (Tse).

Second place in China for the week ending January 23 went to the animated Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf 3 - Moon Castle: The Space Adventure, which collected 54.1 million yuan (six million euros).

Shaolin also topped the charts in Singapore with US$785,000 (448,000 euros), and in Taiwan with NT$6.5 million (163,000 euros), and was set for release in Hong Kong on Thursday.

Reports from film industry press this week have suggested that Jiang Wen's western Let The Bullets Fly had surpassed the 673 million yuan (76 million euros) collected by Aftershock to become China's all-time local box office champ, but there were no official figures released to confirm the fact.

What could be confirmed, however, was that the film was still on top of the box office in Hong Kong, where it has now topped US$1 million (730,000 euros) after two weeks of release, after picking up US$321,148 (234,298 euros) over the past week.

In Japan, meanwhile, the Oscar favorite The Social Network picked up a further US$2 million (1.5 million euros) to be ranked number one - and the film has now collected more than US$6 million (4.4 million euros) in two weeks of release.

And in South Korea it was director Kang Woo-suck's feel-good baseball flick Glove at number one, with takings of just over US$3 million (2.2 million euros).

Jackie's Philosophy on Life

Jackie's philosophy in one:

改不了容貌可展现笑容,左右不了天气可选择心情,不能控制他人可掌握自己,不能预知明天可把握今天,不能事事顺心但可事事尽力! 摘自《先处理心情后处理事情》一书




You can't change the environment but you can change yourself, you can't change reality but you can change your mindset, you can't change your appearance/face but you can smile, you can't change the weather but you can change your mood, you can't control others but you can control yourself, you can't know what will happen tomorrow but you can seize today, you can't have everything go according to your heart's wishes but you can do your best in everything!

Jackie Attends State Dinner for Hu Jintao

Because of the many different articles on this event I am going to pick the best quotes referring to Jackie from them for you.



In response to this photo from Yuan Nong (General Manager for Jackie in China and Chairperson of JCCF Beijing) on Sina's Weibo Jackie noted:

我以身为中国人而感到自豪。
I feel very proud to be Chinese


SOURCE: T.SINA.COM.CN/JACKIECHAN



The best-dressed man at the dinner, hands down, was martial arts movie mogul Jackie Chan, in a buttonless, open black jacket and high-collared white shirt with no tie. He carried a large camera to take groupie pix, and said he'd spent to morning hoping to hear some news about the American and Chinese film industries.


POLITICS DAILY.COM

Joking to reporters, actor Jackie Chan said, "it was a long walk".
Pointing to his camera, he said "want to take photos".


MSN.COM

And let's hope his photos make an appearance in a diary entry very soon.

For a good brief summation of the evenings events and guests:

President Obama and Chinese President Hu Jintao toasted U.S. and Chinese collaboration and mutual interests on Wednesday night at a festive state dinner for 225 guests at the White House.

Their toasts marked the high point of an evening notable for its strict adherence to the protocol and symbolism valued in Chinese culture, but which, at the same time, managed to fulfill the Chinese delegation's request for a thoroughly American dinner party.

Guests dined on a meal of pear salad, lobster, ribeye steak and apple pie for dessert, all of which were complimented by American wines.

In his remarks, Obama noted that despite "differences of culture and perspective," America shares with China "a reverence for family," and a "belief that, with education and hard work and with sacrifice, the future is what we make it." Obama also shared the news of a new agreement under which Washington's National Zoo "will continue to dazzle children and visitors with [China's] beloved giant pandas."

Speaking after Obama, Hu alluded more directly to bilateral discussions that have taken place over the past two days, noting through a translator that the U.S. and China had reached an "important agreement" earlier in the day to "increase contacts at the top … levels, strengthen strategic mutual trust … and step up communication and coordination on international and regional issues."

In a reference to some of the more contentious issues addressed during his visit, Hu said that both nations agreed that "we should respect each other’s sovereignty, territorial integrity and the development interests," and "properly handle differences and frictions."

The guest list represented a broad array of distinguished Chinese Americans, as well as statesmen, lawmakers, business leaders, and key members of Obama's administration.

In addition to former Presidents Carter and Clinton, former Secretaries of State Henry Kissinger and George Shultz were in attendance, as was actor Jackie Chan, cellist Yo Yo Ma, and designer Vera Wang. Also on the guest list was legendary performer Barbra Streisand; Vogue editor Anna Wintour; philanthropist Wendi Murdoch, the wife of News Corp. Chairman Rupert Murdoch; New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R), House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), and Sens. John Kerry (D-Mass.) and Richard Lugar (R-Ind.). Members of Obama's administration in attendance at the dinner included Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, Secretary of Education Arne Duncan, Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius, Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner, and newly appointed White House Chief of Staff William Daley.

Notably absent were Republican House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio), Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.), and Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), all of whom declined to attend.

First Lady Michelle Obama's choice of a red, one-shouldered gown was viewed by many as an homage to the symbolism of the color red in Chinese culture, as well as a nod to the late British designer Alexander McQueen, whose label designed it.

After dinner, a reception featuring American jazz music kept guests up well past 9 p.m., grooving to the sounds of Herbie Hancock, Chris Botti, Dee Dee Bridgewater, Dianne Reeves, players from the Thelonius Monk Institute of Jazz, and a special performance from world-renowned classical pianist Lang Lang.

First Review of Shaolin

Fresh 'Shaolin Temple' goes for drama over kung fu

HONG KONG (AP) — It's the kung fu classic that launched the career of a then little-known 17-year-old Chinese martial arts champion called Jet Li.

Nearly three decades later, "The Shaolin Temple" has received a blockbuster update, with the backing of the famous center of fighting monks of the title and the setting of the 1982 release. Veteran Hong Kong action director Benny Chan has written a new story and cast some of the biggest names in Chinese cinema — Jackie Chan, Andy Lau, Nicholas Tse and Fan Bingbing.

It is the latest screen portrayal of the 1,500-year-old Shaolin Temple in central China, whose kung fu monks have been featured in many TV series and movies. But the 2011 version is only the second to be authorized by temple officials.

Benny Chan, who directed Jackie Chan in some of his recent Hong Kong action thrillers including "Who Am I?," ''New Police Story" and "Rob-B-Hood," is unabashed about being a crowd-pleaser.

"I am a commercial director. I am not an art-house director. I don't know how to create very artistic shots. I don't know how to shoot slowly," the Hong Kong filmmaker told The Associated Press in a recent interview.

But fans who are expecting an action-packed extravaganza must think twice. Unlike the 1982 original, which featured trademark Shaolin-style moves, Chan's focus is drama — not kung fu. And Chan says he asked choreographer Corey Yuen to imbue the flashy action sequences the film does have with what he calls the spirit of "Zen fighting" — a composed style that stresses personal development over violence.

"The Shaolin Temple" is a revenge story — Li plays a young boy adopted and trained by Shaolin monks who tries to avenge his father's death. For the 135-minute update, simply called "Shaolin," Benny Chan crafted an ambitious story arch. Set in China's warlord era shortly after the downfall of imperial rule in the early 20th century, Lau plays a local military ruler paranoid about being betrayed by an ally. He devised an assassination plot, only to be double-crossed by his second-in-command (Tse). Lau's character then seeks refuge in the Shaolin Temple and becomes a monk who repents his terrorizing ways of the past.

"Everyone knows the first movie mainly features the Shaolin-style of kung fu, especially given its star, Jet Li, was a five-time national champion at the time. That's a big selling point. But I won't use a martial arts champion as a selling point. Andy Lau is an actor," Chan said. The veteran Hong Kong leading man is widely respected for his talent as much as his heartthrob looks.

"Do I need to turn Andy Lau into Jet Li? I don't see the need. I don't want to," he said, adding that Lau, a devout Buddhist himself, gave suggestions on how to develop his character.

There is kung fu in the movie — Lau is seen practicing a set of Shaolin-style punches with a group of monks — although Chan says his focus was the philosophy behind the fighting.

"I don't think very flashy and very powerful moves are a display of Zen fighting ... As I understand the spirit of Zen fighting is that you have to understand your ability first, how powerfully you can strike a fist. And then how to break through your limitations. And you will become happier as you practice more," the director said, pointing to a scene where Lau's warlord character blissfully practices his moves side-by-side with a young monk on a cold night.

"I tried to portray a state of mind," he said.

The interplay between the warlord and Jackie Chan's character is another highlight. Benny Chan said he purposely paired them — Lau's calculating, Machiavellian military man and Jackie Chan's role of a happy-go-lucky monk who runs the Shaolin kitchen.

Despite the meditative story, "Shaolin" also has the trappings of any major commercial production. A massive explosion scene took a month to shoot and, naturally, couldn't be set at the real temple. Instead, they splurged 20 million Chinese yuan ($3 million) on a full-sized replica that included a 9.9-meter- (32-feet-) tall Buddha statue.

Benny Chan said the final scene was a painstaking process and a huge technical achievement. He did not use special effects and could only complete a few shots a day.

"It was very memorable. It was very taxing and very dangerous," he said.

"Shaolin" is being released in China and the Philippines on Wednesday; in Australia on Thursday; in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and Indonesia on Friday; and in Vietnam on Feb. 18.

Yes? No? Maybe? WOW!

What an honour if true ... let's wait and see. Would LOVE to read Jackie's diary about this if it is.

Jackie Chan to attend State Dinner

While the White House won't officially release the guest list for Wednesday night's State Dinner with China until shortly before the event, names of attendees are slowly leaking out. Yeas & Nays received confirmation from his publicist that actor and martial artist Jackie Chan will be in attendance. Rep. Judy Chu, the first Chinese-American elected to Congress, along with Energy Secretary Steven Chu and Commerce Secretary Gary Locke will be on hand. And Oakland Mayor Jean Quan and San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee will be attending together, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. Vera Wang, who attended the last State Dinner with China in 1997, seems like an obvious choice for Michelle Obama's dress designer and to snag an invitation, but her people wouldn't say a word Tuesday night. "We're not disclosing anything at this time," Wang's publicist said.

The New York Times also has Jackie down as attending:

Officials refused Tuesday to discuss either the menu or the guest list. Some tidbits, though, did trickle out: the actor Jackie Chan will attend,


In addition to coincide with the State Visit of Hu Jintao China is running a series of adverts in Times Square in New York promoting China. Amongst the many recognisable faces in the advert is Jackie. See if you can spot him.

  这项由教育部中国教师发展基金会主办、北京成龙慈善基金会发起的“龙子心”校园安全公益培训是一项全国性的公益活动,面向基层、面向农村、面向薄弱学校进行免费的校园安全培训,目的是让偏远地区的教师学习安全工作的有关政策、法律、法规,掌握开展安全工作的方式、方法,提升校园安全教育和管理水平,增强安全意识和安全防范能力,为中小学生的健康成长营造一个平安和谐校园环境。

  据介绍,本次培训主要以教育部《学生伤害事故处理办法》、《中小学幼儿园安全管理办法》等法律法规和有关校园安全的文件规定为依据,特邀请中国教育学会中小学安全委员会会长郑增仪、教育部政策法规司原副司长张文、教育部政策法规司处长王大泉、中国人民公安大学王大伟教授等知名专家就校园安全相关法律法规解析、校园治安防范、校园安全工作责任制与事故处理等方面作专题演讲,其间还组织校际交流和参观防灾博物馆。

  最近几年,校园踩踏等校园安全事故频频发生,资料显示,安全事故已经成为我国青少年的最大杀手。一个和谐温馨、安定有序的校园,不只是传播知识的殿堂,还应该成为学生生命健康成长的乐园。

  北京成龙慈善基金会秘书长党群希望这个培训活动,能够帮助中小学校长学会运用科学的安全方法,掌握校园安全管理方法,真正为学生们的校园安全筑起一道坚固的防线!她表示,基金会还将向偏远地区学校捐赠15000套校园安全用书及15000套“校园安全预案专用工作夹”,用于教师培训和学校演习。

  来自内蒙古四子王旗的一位中学校长说,平时总感觉学校安全工作任务重、头绪多、脑子里没有完善的系统和理论,这次参加培训正好补上这一课。
