为赈灾卖50000件爱心T恤

http://www.fiftythousandshirts.com/
中文名字姑且叫五万件t恤衫

这是一个美国人搞的网站。根据筹划人steve的说法,他们准备通过这个网站在美国销售5万件t恤,为中国四川地震灾民募捐100万美元。5万代表不幸遇难的中国人。因为是刚刚架好的网站,目前还在调试在线支付系统,但是已经可以预定了,预定的人以及以后的购买者可以把自己名字留在The Wall上面。设计的主要理念和温宝宝说的那句差不多——把一份爱乘以十三亿就是十三亿份爱,所以设计理念是就是“X(乘号)”。

inod同学你是不是也搞一个类似的,在美国,外国人都能卖5万件,国内卖500万件也不是不可能!

补充 他们有一个facebook的群 link

亚利桑那州立大学校长迈克克劳致全校公开信

To the ASU Community:

Arizona State University, as the sister institution of Sichuan University, is committed to helping its friends and colleagues in the aftermath of the severe earthquake that occurred in Sichuan Province on May 12, 2008. Our thoughts and sympathies go out to all those affected by this tragic event, especially those who have lost loved ones and livelihoods. The scale and scope of the damage are still being assessed, and the Chinese government, and local and international NGOs, are working intensely to advance relief efforts in this area.

Many organizations are focused on providing for the emergency needs of those impacted by the disaster, specifically food, water, shelter, health care, and rescue. ASU is engaged actively in this urgent support, and anticipates the significant, longer-term future needs of the region. Some of the areas hardest hit by the earthquake are desperately poor and many families have been left without the means to support themselves. Many Sichuan University students have experienced dramatic personal losses and their futures, as well as those of their families, are uncertain. In support of these members of our extended Sun Devil family in Chengdu and Sichuan Province, we have established a fund to aid these students and their families during this difficult time, and we are working with Sichuan University and our counterparts in the City of Chengdu and in Sichuan Province to ensure that our assistance will be directed where it is most needed.

I write in the hope that our university community will come together, as it has in the past, and contribute to the Sisters of Sichuan Fund for Disaster Relief. We will report regularly on the funds raised and the families aided by your generosity.

Checks can be made payable to the ASU Foundation, Sisters of Sichuan Fund and mailed to the ASU Foundation, PO Box 2260, Tempe, Arizona, 85280-2260.

Thank you in advance for your kindness and your willingness to help during this critical time of need.

Michael M. Crow
President
Arizona State University

绵阳的雨一直下 Part2

这是05年时候我写的blog

绵阳的雨一直下

2005-07-19 15:34:28

昨天李某的父亲来了,请我们吃了饭,由于喝了一些酒,昨天很早就睡了。早上起来我着实被吓倒了因为又是一个大雨倾盆的早上,无奈于我们没有伞我觉得只有穿冲锋衣才能挡住了。当我穿着那件红色的哥伦比亚冲锋走到楼下,发现其实雨非常小。为什么听起来这么大呢?可能是因为这边巷子窄,加上楼顶上的积水冲击那些遮阳板结果听起来比较大吧。瑞瑞说他要吃早饭,正好,我回去换衣服好了,要是穿着冲锋衣去上班可能会创长虹的厂史。

旅馆老板娘和人在打牌,应该是打了一夜了,看我进进出出,对我露出惺忪的微笑。今天就这样开始了。

坐在潮湿的15路车上,看着外面的小雨大概在路中间有一个天桥,但是没有修好,每次只有从桥下过。下面很臭。今天车一如既往的在天桥前面路口停了,但是停了很久,前面彻底堵上了。一个救护车从沿着路边的一个小区冲出来,后面跟着很多家属,估计是家里人在送去急救。救护车司机很急看到这个景象,他喝斥一个工地小工,让他把没修好的天桥前面的路牌拿开,他要从天桥上过。小工开了门,车飞驰一般的冲上桥,家属在后面张望,估计在考虑自己怎么过去。

希望车能够及时抵达医院。

我们还在车上等着,前面积水很深,一些小车在掉头回来,估计公交车底盘高可以过去,因为司机一点掉头的意思也没有。果不其然,我们开到了积水最深处,司机开足马力冲了过去,我回头看着后面一辆车,再看看窗外的积水,我给瑞瑞说怎么感觉在坐船过三峡。

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

周一的时候,在得知西安的家人没什么大碍(除了书架震歪抽屉都掉出来以外),唯一放不下心的就是在成都和绵阳的朋友们,以及那些漂泊在外面的四川人了。我和四川的缘分大概是从母亲怀我时候爬峨眉山开始的,也算是第一次亲密接触。之后去长虹实习,虽然时间不长,但是绵阳和绵阳人对我来说还是很亲切的,更不要说那无比好吃的鹅翅干锅了。昨天晚上电脑上开着pplive,一直都没有睡着,大概是太关心先头部队能不能在黄金48小时内进入震中的几个乡镇了。在隐约睡着的时候,似乎做梦回到了绵阳,回到了火车站旁边那个小楼,梦中感觉很慌乱,不知道是不是出事儿了,我还记得每天都在一楼打麻将的房东,对面吃毛豆的神秘女子,闯入屋子的意外访客“蝙蝠”——今天听代江说市区受损不算太严重,算是舒了一口气,希望他们都平安。刚才突然想到我在05年的时候就已经开始写blog,就回溯找到这片,“绵阳的雨一直下”,看电视报道,震后绵阳的雨也在下,我印象中绵阳的雨来得很突然但是去得也快,希望这次也是,并且雨停的时候一切的噩梦都能结束。
