Aum: December 2008. See also: (News Today, 15 December 2008) Asking UNESCO to designate Setusamudram as World Heritage Site December 25, 2008 Greetings! We are happy to report that some 200 ecologists, academics, scientists and religious leaders from around the world met on 25 and 26 November at the Linnean Society in London and sought to provide enough multi-disciplinary evidence to persuade the governments of India and Sri Lanka to ask UNESCO to designate the Gulf of Mannar a World Heritage Site. We are delighted to inform you that the Alliance of Religions and Conservation (ARC) made the dramatic announcement at the London meeting that it would be seeking to have the Gulf of Mannar designated as one of the world's first internationally recognized 'Sacred Sites.' Martin Palmer said, "Cosmologically and ecologically theGulf of Mannar is about as sacred a site as you couldget.

Www.stumbleupon.com/su/1emlpB/www.good.is/post/people-are-awesome-this-guy-scuba-dived-into-the-tsunami-to-rescue-his-wife-and-mother/ No doubt many stories of heroism in the face of Japan's recent tsunami will emerge in the upcoming weeks—one is happening in the Fukushima Daiichi plant as I write this, in fact—but the latest is so beautiful and fantastical that it seems primed for a Hollywood movie. Meet Hideaki Akaiwa, 43. Startled at work by the now infamous earthquake and tsunami that shook and overtook Japan on March 11, Akaiwa rushed to high ground and immediately called his wife of two decades. When she didn't answer, Akaiwa ignored friends' pleas to wait for a military rescue, instead rummaging up some scuba gear and diving into the dark, cold, debris-filled tsunami.

Hundreds of yards of swimming later, Akaiwa found his wife struggling against the 10-foot current that had overtaken the couple's Ishinomaki home. Once he'd gotten his wife to safety, Akaiwa suffered for four days with worry for his elderly mother. With his family accounted for, Akaiwa hasn't rested on his laurels. Bring on the Failure | The Passion Test Daily. I’m so tired of hearing men talk about the ‘fear of failure’ as a reason for not moving their lives forward that I could barf (I hope I’m not driving when it happens). Failure is critical to every success. And the larger the success, the more failures you’ll have to go through to get there. It seems everyone has forgotten that old saying, “If at first you don’t succeed …” The notion that success is somehow devoid of failure, or perhaps that successful people don’t fail is so far out of whack that it’s laughable.

Here’s the cold, hard truth: if you’re going to succeed at anything, you will fail along the way. And probably more than you care to. The question that will change your life is, “How do you react to those failures?” It’s time to really shift your thinking on this entire topic. I fail all the time. The main issue that most tend to forget is that failing is not some big, dark, end of the line, you’re a bad person and doomed to the gallows kind of thing. I Can Reverse Aging - Dr. Jill Engelmann. Our Shrinking World | The Passion Test Daily. The world is changing dramatically. Have you noticed? In the past few weeks I have been to India, Mexico, San Diego and Chicago. Now I’m back in my “home” in Iowa. I have friends all over the world, and what is most amazing, I see them regularly.

When I can’t see them in person, I get on Skype and talk to them on a video call. 100 years ago, the only people I would see and talk to regularly would have been the people in my town. When a devastating earthquake hits Japan, it affects all of us. The forces of nature and our own creativity are ushering us into an age where the heart will predominate. Those who will be rewarded in this new age are those who open their hearts and minds. That’s one of the reasons I am so excited about the Passion Test Daily and the Transformational Magazine Network.
