***** Neswbrief of WBTI on February 4, 2004 *****

to pay a special tribute to Justice Myron Leavitt
By Tiffany Chang
On Wendesday, January 4, 2004, the Asian American Group of Asian American Community in Nevada will hold an event and dinner party.*12 At 7:00 - 9:30 p. m., the location will be at the Harbor Palace Restaurant , China Town, Las Vegas. The Event is for a Special Tribute to Justice Myron Leavitt.
It planned to invite Chief Justice Debra Agosti of the Nevada Supreme Court and District Judge of Nevada Michelle Leavitt as Keynote Speakers.
The following individuals had been planned as Event Chairpersons: David Amesbury, Esq., General Counsel --- CAN-DO; Raj Chanderraj, MD, Founder, Friends of India; Benson Lee, Esq., President, Chinese American Citizens Alliance of Las Vegas; R. D. Prabhu, MD, Chairperson, CAN-DO; among others. It planned to have Event Hosts: Dolly DeLeon, Past President, Philippine Chamber of Commerce, and Editor-in-Chief, "US Asian Chronicle"; Romeo Jurani, Past President, Philippines Bisayans Society of Nevada; Steven Kwon, Past President & Founder, Asian Chamber of Commerce; Vimla Lendway, Exceptional Travel Service; L. Kristopher Raft, Esq.; Rita Vaswani; Joey Villaflor, MD, Chairman, Board of Health; among others.
It is our regret not being able to post the names and titles of many important and special guests including some more hosts, because we could not get an update of the above list since January 20, 2004.
All of the guests will be about 200 people. Attire for the event and party is business. Guests whom invited by Dr. Tony Lei, Chairman of Chinese American Academic Association of Nevada and his wife Judy are: Miss Agnas Chan, Ms. Helen Hsueh, Mr. Jimmy Hsu, Miss Christine Hu, Mr. Xiao-sheng Huang , Mr. Raymond Lam, Mr. Mark Meng, Mr. Ja Pu, Dr. An-pyng Sun, and Mr. Yuan Chuan Tsai.
It was already popular for the past years to hold dinner parties to pay special tribute to elected offficials, but most of them were civil administratives or civic representatives. Dr. Tony Lei initiated to hold event and dinner party to pay a spcial tribute to the judicial professionals through elections in Nevada. Justice Nancy Becker was the first one selected by him to pay a tribute. A successful event and dinner party was held for her on May 23, 2001 at Harbor Palace Restaurant in Las Vegas. It was chaired by Dr. Tony Lei, President of Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI); Theresa Malone, Member of Nevada State Board of Education; Dr. R. D. Prabhu, Chairperson of CAN-DO; and Dr. Joey Villaflor, Member of Nevada Board of Health. We the Asian American communities have continuously achieved the efforts for other judicial professionals since then.
"To dedicate to the creed of Washington Business and Technology Institute, it's my challenge as an Associate Fellow of it's Public Administration Institution (PAI) to endeavor with all the intellectuals of this Institute to improve the quality of life of the people of Nevada," said Jennifer Togliatti at the Dinner Party on May 17, 2002. The Event with dinner was held by the Asian American Community to pay a special tribute to District Judges Michelle Leavitt and Jennifer Togliatti at the Harbor Palace Seafood Restaurant in Las Vegas.
Judge Michelle Leavitt deserves special recognition of her expertise, integrity, conscientious and dedicated professionalism. She has been a bright Associate Fellow of PAI since 2000. "Thanks to Dr. Tony Lei, Dr. R. D. Prabhu, and Attorney David Amesbury to chair this Event and Party. Together with knowledge as the power of rightiousness, we may build a community where this and future generations will have more opportunities and advantages to live a prosperous and healthy life," said Judge Michelle Leavitt at the Dinner Party.*13
We are deeply regret and sorry that Judge Michelle Leavitt's father passed away weeks ago on a Friday. Myron Leavitt, 73, a Justice of the Nevada Supreme Court, who had a long political career in Nevada. He was born in Las Vegas. Myron was a football and track athlete at the University of Nevada at Reno, where he earned a journalism degree. He worked a year as sports editor of the Las Vegas Review-Journal before studying law at the University of Utah.*14
Myron had private law practice for 28 years. He served as a Councilman of Las Vegas, a Commissioner Clark County and a Justice of the Peace before winning election as Lieutenant Governor of Nevada from 1979 to 1983.
Leavitt served as a Clark County District Court Judge for 15 years before winning a Supreme Court position as one of its Justice in 1998.*15 The late Myron Leavitt is honored as a Memorial Fellow of the Public Administration Institution (PAI) of Washingoton Business and Technology Institute (WBTI) on February 4, 2004.
"I can't help thinking about Justice Myron Leavitt, our long time Asian American friend of Nevada, who died so unexpectedly. This brings to my mind the urgency of our times in Las Vegas. We note the vanishing of many heroes that built the world of Nevada after 1963. We recognize that the best way to honor those who have gone before us is to rise up and find the greatness in our own lives, the strength of charater, the vision and courage, the determination and selflessness to address the challenges that still lay before us," says Dr. Tony Lei, President of WBTI, for the Event and Dinner Party held by the Asian American Community of Nevada on February 4, 2004 in Las Vegas.
Asian American Community has won recognition for contribution to Nevada by the American Mainstream. The main reason for this recognition is the great and cooperative wisdom and effort that we the Asian American communities have continuously participated and offered to the mainstream society in Nevada.*16

To promote educational forums and community services are two of the most important missions of WBTI. "Mr. Pepperdine was really a visionary who put energy and ingenuity into his dreams. The institution (Pepperdine University) he founded has continued to dream and to be an encourager of vision. We have often quoted Daniel Hudson Burnham, who, at the turn of the twentieth century, said, 'Make no little plans; they have no magic to stir men's blood... Make big plans, aim high in hope and work.' We believe that students (or alumnus) ought to begin with a commitment to outstanding academics. But there are other elements that are also important. Students (and alumnus) need a heart for excellence and a soul that makes big plans and aims high. In addition, without a foundation of ethics, character, and faith, we believe true success is impossible. We hope you are among those who want to soar beyond mediocrity and reach for the magic that will 'stir men's blood,'" stated President Dr. Andrew K. Benton of Pepperdine University.*747

Wu Man ( )
"Wu Man is an internationally renowned pipa virtuoso, cited by the Los Angeles Times as 'the artist most responsible for bringing the pipa to the Western World.' The pipa is a lute-like Chinese instrument with a history of more than two thousand years. Having been brought up in the Pudong School of pipa playing, one of the most prestigious classical styles of Imperial China, Wu Man is now recognized as an outstanding exponent of the traditional repertoire as well as a leading interpreter of contemporary pipa music by today's most prominent composers such as Terry Riley, Philip Glass, Lou Harrison, Tan Dun, Bright Sheng, Chen Yi, Zhou Long, Bun-Ching Lam and many others," posts The Silk Road Project on Internet.*7 "Born in Hangzhou, China, Wu Man studied with Lin Shicheng, Kuang Yuzhong, Chen Zemin, and Liu Dehai at the Central Conservatory of Music in Beijing, where she became the first recipient of a master's degree in pipa. When in China, Wu Man received first prize in the 1st National Music Performance Competition among other awards. She also participated in many groundbreaking premieres of works by a new generation of Chinese composers. Wu Man currently lives in San Diego, and she formerly lived in Boston for 13 years, where she was selected as a Bunting Fellow at the Radcliffe Institute of Advanced Study at Harvard University. Wu Man was selected by Yo-Yo Ma as the winner of the City of Toronto Glenn Gould Protege Prize in music and communication. She is also the first artist from China to have performed at the White House."

Cloud Gate founder Lin thanks Taiwan
CNA
TAIPEI, Taiwan -- Famed Taiwan writer-turned choreographer Lin Hwai-min, who founded the internationally acclaimed Cloud Gate Dance Theater, said, "Thank you, Taiwan," as he accepted an award in Beijing that named him one of the world's most influential ethnic Chinese people, Saturday.
At Peking University, where a ceremony to honor the "Most Influential ethnic Chinese in the World" was held, Lin thanked Taiwan, saying that if there were no Taiwan or compassionate Taiwanese, there would be no Cloud Gate or its achievements.
Lin, who is also the artistic director of Cloud Gate, is the only Chinese from Taiwan to have made the list of the 2007 Most Influential Chinese in the World, a citation organized by Peking University and 11 Chinese language global media enterprises that include the Lienhe Zaobao in Singapore, the Hong Kong-based Wen Wei Po, the World Journal of North America and Sohu.com.
Lin said in a speech after receiving the prestigious prize that he accredited the honor to Taiwan. He said the people of Taiwan have been buying tickets to watch Cloud Gate performances in theaters over the past 30-odd years, even during the group's formative years.
In 1988, he related, after Cloud Gate temporarily suspended its operations in the face of financial difficulties, a taxi driver encouraged him to "hang in there and rebuild the theater."
After a fire destroyed Cloud Gate's major rehearsal studio in Taipei County, in northern Taiwan, in February, Lin said, thousands of encouraging letters from the Taiwan public flooded his office, along with donations.
"If there were not such a compassionate society like Taiwan's, it would have been impossible for Cloud Gate to be invited to perform in major cities around the world over the last decade," Lin said.
Lin was cited by the prize organizers as "having solved the major problem facing the modernization of traditional arts and having conserved and spread Chinese culture throughout the world via dance."
Other recipients of the prize included U.S. Secretary of Labor Elaine L. Chao; Yao Ming, a professional basketball player who plays for the Houston Rockets of the U.S. National Basketball Association; U.S.-based scientist Wei Min-hao and internationally-renowned actor Jackie Chan.
Lin was chosen by Time magazine in 2005 as one of 25 "Asian Heroes."
Introducing Lin, the magazine said that his troupe once attracted over 60,000 people to an outdoor performance, and in Europe, members of an audience cried while watching Cloud Gate perform.
Among his many masterpieces was "Cursive: A Trilogy," which debuted in 2001. Inspired after studying Chinese calligraphy masterpieces, Lin created the first installment of "Cursive" in 2001, followed by "Cursive II," which opened the Melbourne International Arts Festival in 2003 and won both the Age Critics' Award and the Patrons' Award.
"Wild Cursive," the final chapter of Lin's Trilogy, opened to a full house at the 25th Next Wave Festival at the Brooklyn Academy of Music in October 2007.
Lin said in New York at the time that the process of producing the trilogy had much to do with the development of the dancers. "Training in martial arts, tai chi tao yin, modern dance, ballet, meditation and Chinese opera movements enables the dancers to turn themselves into bodily brushes," he noted.
