     Korean popular male artistes Rain who swept Asia recently, had gained popularity among both male and
female fans. Due to his popularity, it has changed the initial plan of Pepsi which does not intend to offer
Korean artistes to be Pepsi's ambassadors. Now they have changed their mind to offer a high price to invite
Rain to be its new" blue blood".
     For the past 2 years, Pepsi had spent enormous amount of fund in search of the world popular super stars,
offering them to be its ambassadors. They include soccer star David Beckham,Taiwan popular idols F4,Jay
Chou, Hong Kong stars Edison Chen, Nicholas Tse,Louis Koo ect. Now with the recent up and rising Korean
Star Rain, Pepsi is quick to put him in its list.
     According to source, Pepsi has recently sent a representative to fly over to Korea to discuss details with
Rain and they are about to sign the contract. Also according to source, Pepsi shall be the sponsor of Rain's
October concert in Hong Kong, but Rain's Hong Kong manager Ms Chan Ka Ying responded,"At this moment,
it's not convenient to talk about this.There shall be a news announcement shortly!"
     As the old Chinese saying "One mountain cannot be ruled by several tigers", Pepsi has somehow created an
internal competition. As Rain's rising popularity is getting strong, the status of Jay, who has the same feature
of"single eye-lid" as Rain, has somehow been affected-there's a rumor that the skin product brand HDC has the
intention to switch from Jay to Rain to be its ambassador, in order to capture Korea, Japan, and China market
to expand its business. Besides being popular for his R&B songs and dance steps, Rain's lead role in " Full
House" has also emotionally touched many Asian women's hearts. He has even successfully penetrated (渗透)
into the mainland China market, the most difficult task. His recent Beijing concert caused a tremendous hit,
resulting in creating"Korean Fever" in mainland China.

Last week Jay McCarroll and The HSUS (The Humane Society of the United States) made a bold fur-free statement on the runway, marking a new chapter for the fashion industry and animal protection. The encouraging response to McCarroll’s show confirmed that change is happening in fashion.

McCarroll has good reasons for rejecting fur. Each year, tens of millions of amimals, including dogs and cats, needlessly suffer and die to fuel the fur industry. But what did Jay McCarroll use in place of fur?“I have patchwork pieces that contain all sorts of combinations of fabrics. The rest is cotton, nylon, polyester…you name it. I even have some stuff made out of bamboo / cotton blend. Anything but fur and leather,”he told Fashion Wire Daily.

“So many people want to protect animals and live their lives without causing unnecessary cruelty. More than two thirds of Americans have pets, and we share a bond with animals every day. Saying no to fur can help millions of animals, and we want to show our respect to leading designers like Jay who embrace compassion(同情) as the fashion,”said Michael Markarian, executive vice president of The HSUS.“It is great to see leaders in the fashion industry recognizing that the animals need their fur more than we do.”

Munish Bansal has amassed(积累)8,500 digital images of daughter Suman, 12, and her brother Jay, 10, since the day they were born. He has enough pictures to fill 600 albums and shows them on a website named “delightful kids”.  
Mr. Bansal, 36, an accountant from Gillingham, Kent: “It started when I took a picture of Suman on the day when she was born. I did the same the following day, and the day after, and the day after that. Before I knew it, she had turned one and I had 365 images. It seemed a shame to stop, so I kept going - and did the same when Jay came along.” Mr. Bansal, who lives with housewife Rita, 39, began the family album on the day Suman was born in 1996. With a digital camera, he takes the picture usually before school or during dinner.
The photographs capture her life from a baby and toddler, through to early school days and into her teens. They include important landmarks like walking, the day she spoke, her first words and the beginning of school. He did the same with her younger brother Jay who was born two years later.
Mr. Bansal admits both Suman and Jay are “quite embarrassed” about the website - and their father. Suman, who turns 13 tomorrow, said: “It's interesting because when I look at the baby photos I don't recognize myself - but I'm not planning on letting Dad do this for ever.” Mr. Bansal has said he will continue until they are old enough to leave home. “As they get older, Sunam and Jay have become quite embarrassed about what I'm doing,” he said. “But I hope that one day both of them will appreciate what I’ve done, and look back on their childhoods with happy memories.”
