Celebrate Arbor Day in a personal way by planting a tree yourself.

It is an act of optimism and kindness,

A labor of love

And a commitment to stewardship.

Surfing legends Chris and Keith Malloy have spent years travelling around the world looking for the best undiscovered surfing spots. From Antarctica to Iceland and from Galapagos to New Caledonia, no matter how remote the place was, plastic was already there...

Buddha was not a Buddhist, He was a Teacher...

Do not fear the media, BECOME THE MEDIA!

In the spirit of Jello Biafra I wanted to know three things from our favorite teachers,

1 Why the strike?
2 Who long will it last?
3 What will the outcome be?

Will have to stay tuned for the answers to points 2 & 3

I see trees that are green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself : "What a wonderful world!"

I see skies of blue, and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, dark sacred night
And I think to myself : "What a wonderful world!"

The colours of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of the people passing by
I see friends shaking hands, saying : "How do you do?"
But they're really saying : "I love you".

I hear babies cry, I watch them grow
They'll learn much more, than I'll ever know
And I think to myself : "What a wonderful world!"
I think to myself : "What a wonderful world!"
Oh yeah...

The only real crime is that you won't admit that you are God. - Alan Watts

On December 18, 2007, the United Nations General Assembly adopted resolution 62/139, tabled by the State of Qatar, which declares April 2 as World Autism Awareness Day (WAAD) in perpetuity. Her Highness Sheikha Mozah Bint Nasser Al-Missned, Consort of His Highness Sheikh Hamad Bin Khalifa Al-Thani, the Emir of the State of Qatar, supported the campaign for a World Autism Awareness Day through the current 62nd UN General Assembly Session, garnering consensus support from all United Nations Member States.

This UN resolution is one of only three official disease-specific United Nations Days and will bring the world's attention to autism, a pervasive disorder that affects tens of millions. The World Autism Awareness Day resolution encourages all Member States to take measures to raise awareness about autism throughout society and to encourage early diagnosis and early intervention. It further expresses deep concern at the prevalence and high rate of autism in children in all regions of the world and the consequent developmental challenges.

World Autism Awareness Day shines a bright light on autism as a growing global health crisis. WAAD activities help to increase and develop world knowledge of the autism epidemic and impart information regarding the importance of early diagnosis and early intervention. Additionally, WAAD celebrates the unique talents and skills of persons with autism and is a day when individuals with autism are warmly welcomed and embraced in community events around the globe.

By bringing together autism organizations all around the world, we will give a voice to the millions of individuals worldwide who are undiagnosed, misunderstood and looking for help. Please join us in our effort to inspire compassion, inclusion and hope.
