Ice Ice Samsung

Part of Samsung's Holiday in July was a two 3000 pound ice sculptures, created by Okamoto Studio in Brooklyn. The ice setup began at 5:45am on Wednesday and Thursday. They built the sculpture from pre cut and shaped blocks right in the living room. After the cocktail party on Wednesday, they took down down the sculpture and started again on Thursday morning. With over 20 trips up the elevator, you could say that was a lot of ice.

Set up in the morning
















The ice sculpture fully set up. The sculpture included Samsung products frozen in the ice as presents. Samsungs mp3 player, the pebble, even started as Christmas tree ornaments.












While the room was a bit chilly, it created quite the atmosphere with in the living room.

Cool Products from Samsung

From Camcorders, mp3 players, and televisions, to demonstrations on how their backlit LED lights make a superior quality, Samsung showed it all. There was even a non disclosure room. Sorry no photographs on those products. Lets just say, “look out for Samsung.”

Only An Angel Can Save Me Now

Inspired by a feature film "Holly", I have become passionate about the huge problem of Child Trafficking for Prostitution. Unicef estimates it effects 2 million kids, aged 5 to 17, mostly girls, whose lives usually are placed in horrible inhumane and deadly jeopardy. The outright sale of these children by their parents happens pervasively throughout the poorest parts of the world .
And for different reasons, child prostitution happens all over the USA as well. We are not immune PBS
Think how many of these little people will survive rape,physical and psychological abuse and, perhaps worse, the almost inevitable scourge of AIDS.

My heart led me to write a song called " Only An Angel Can Save Me Now", and collaborate with other singers on this song.
I have here an English version ( co-written by May Ling) and a Vietnamese version ( co-written by MinhTu Van and Julie Nguyen).
I would love for this song to be sung in all the languages around the world.
