Mass Cleanup of Bird Sanctuary off the Coast of Manila

Leading to Earth Day, environment groups in Manila hold a protest march and a clean-up drive in a bird sanctuary facing threats of reclamation. Environmental groups initiated a coastal cleanup drive at a marshland considered to be a sanctuary for birds, fishes and mangroves in Manila on Saturday (April 21) as part of their Earth Day campaign. About 100 volunteers and activists handpicked bottles, plastics and other non-biodegradable wastes washed ashore on the 175-hectare mangrove island, called Freedom Island, on the southwestern coast of Manila. Environmental activist Marie McPhedran volunteered for the clean up and protest action to preserve Freedom Island for future generations. [Marie McPhedran, Member And Volunteer, Freedom Faithnet Global]: "It only takes a few hours off from our day-to-day lives to give a little something back to our mother earth. We must learn how to love our environment since it is our legacy to the next generation. Let's leave our children with a cleaner Philippines." Earth Island International Philippines Campaign Officer Angela Colmenares said tons of garbage have been washed ashore in the coastline and nearby island.

Lower Dens, Live In Concert: NPR Music at SXSW 2012
Lower Dens' music favors mood over stage-stalking showmanship: Singer Jana Hunter's icy-cool demeanor sets a hauntingly atmospheric tone that's all mystery, washes of guitar-saturated noise and the difficult emotions that lie, unexpressed, beneath the surface. Mixing songs from 2010's majestic Twin Hand Movement with material from the hotly anticipated Nootropics, Lower Dens seethed through a gorgeous, brooding set at NPR Music's SXSW day party, held Thursday at The Parish in Austin, Texas. With roots in Baltimore and (appropriately enough) Texas, Lower Dens' members specialize in a fragile mix of warm and cool, with clear influences ranging from The Velvet Underground to '80s new wave. On stage at The Parish, Lower Dens found the sweet spot that lies between, locating a patch of real estate where shyness doesn't preclude soul.

euronews musica - Florence's new opera house 'a metaphysical space of absolute purity'
www.euronews.com Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 4 is considered one of the most harrowing pieces in the classical repertoire. Austrian pianist Rudolf Buchbinder is a leading expert on Beethoven in general, and on this concerto in particular. Buchbinder told euronews: "This is the greatest and deepest of all five (of Beethoven's) concertos, the most sensitive, the most emotional, the most touching. He's dreaming of something. He's dreaming of love, he's dreaming of warmth, which he never got. He was always in love with the wrong woman, this was his problem!" Conductor Fabio Luisi added: "The second movement is quite revolutionary. It's a totally new type of dialogue between the piano and the orchestra - nothing like that had appeared before. It's a very intense, dramatic dialogue, which makes this movement particularly original." For this rendition, euronews went to the new Opera House in Florence, which was recently opened to coincide with celebrations marking 150 years of Italian Unification. The Florence Opera House has been completed at a time of global economic crisis. Elisabetta Fabbri, who supervised its construction for the Italian government, told euronews: "A theatre is usually seen as an open space when the show is on, but then, once the lights are off, it becomes again a closed space. Here we wanted to reverse the role of the theatre, and music. "It's been said that 'Music washes the dust of the day from the soul'. It's beautiful to think of this place as a ...

For all of our non-sewers and sewers alike, here is a DIY caftan you can make without sewing skills. Caftans are free-flowing long tunics that originated in the middle east centuries ago. They have re-emerged throughout fashion history many times, most notably in the late 60's-early 70's (think Mrs. Roper and Maude). I, myself, LOVE a modern day caftan for lounging, relaxing, or accessorizing and wearing out. Check out the complete step-by-step tutorial over on Make: Projects .
Subscribe to the CRAFT Podcast in iTunes , download the m4v directly, or watch it on YouTube or Vimeo .
Sewers can sew instead of use the tape I show, and feel free to play with different fabrics and the depth of your slits and arm holes. I got this beautiful fabric at Britex . Really light, airy fabrics or silk give a really sexy look.
CARE: Most caftans (due to the fabric) are hand wash or spot clean. The trade off with the no-sew caftan is that the tape means a bit more time is necessary for care. I recommend spot cleaning with the no-sew option. Replace the tape with a straight stitch if you want to throw your caftan in the washing machine.

Song from Tibet : Apha / Father (HH Dalai Lama) by Dekyi Tsering (English Sub)
Translated by Khechok Click here for more videos : www.youtube.com Lyrics below : - - - - Apha (Father) - - - - In the center of a family, illuminate the ever-burning lamp To great loving father, who carries the hopes of his children I offer you the lamp of my heart As I offer incense in the morning, I consecrate the best wishes In the praising of "Kyi Kyi So So", and in the rising of the white smoke I send hundreds and thousands of prayers How have you been, long separated, far away, and much-missed father? How are you brothers and sisters, who have left your homes? The fatherland with the dying grassland, and the black tent that merely withstands the storm Its children never hear the sound of happiness, They wash their faces with the tears of sadness Never have they experienced the happiness of being reunited, Only do they hear the sound of sad sighs Never have they experienced the happiness of being reunited, Day after day, night after night, year after year Khyen Khyen Lama Khyen... Oh, my dear Lama, my great loving father, Please don't be sad Though the warmth is absent in our homes We can feel the warmth from your words of wisdom We are the successors of your pursuit We will materialize your dreams We will work hard at learning Tibetan Our language will never be forgotten Our traditions will be passed on Our food will be enjoyed, moreover Our fatherland will be loved from the bottom of our hearts Dear father, You are the one that I will ever forget You are the one ...

Take a behind the scenes look at the deleted scenes from The Making of George Sabra's Plastic Caps Sculpture! The Lake Travis Underwater Cleanup is the BIGGEST scuba diving and shoreline cleanup in Texas. The event invites several hundred certified scuba divers and shoreline volunteers to help round-up trash from the bottom of Lake Travis and 11 Travis County Parks around the lake. The cleanup is followed by a volunteer thank-you party & is a great event for ALL ages! RAIN OR SHINE! September 11th we united with volunteers across the nation to make the tenth anniversary of 9/11 one of service and remembrance. 2011 RESULTS - 848 volunteers (379 Divers, 398 shoreline, and 71 party volunteers). 1.64 Tons of litter removed. $37,725.45 worth of Volunteer Hours! Most Unique items found: Divers-40 Foot Deep Anchor and Shoreline-Old Radio. Be the Change Austin recruited 1,000 volunteers this year to make wonderful things happen all over the City of Austin. Be the Change is an annual national day of service coordinated by South Asian Americans Leading Together (SAALT) to inspire and foster civic engagement through volunteerism and community service. Every year, thousands of participants across the country contribute innumerable hours of community service in the spirit of Mahatma Gandhi's famous quote, "Be the change you wish to see in the world." Be the Change has allocated 300 of their Volunteers to a work day at Montopolis Greenbelt. In a part of the city not known for its greenbelts, Montopolis Greenbelt is a property with rich historical relevance, and is in substantial need of care and maintenance. Previously used as a dumping ground, stakeholders have held workdays wherein approximately 2,000 tires, an air conditioning unit, a washing machine, and a dishwasher were pulled out of the greenbelt proper and its waterways. The property is also ravaged by invasive plants, and full of trash and debris. Undoubtedly much progress will be made on this continually improving natural and historical preserve with the help of Be the Change Volunteers. The plastic caps sculpture was on display outside Austin City Hall during the Green City Festival on Sunday October 23, 2011. Sculptor George Sabra create a large scale public sculpture 21 feet made from thousands of discarded, reclaimed plastic caps and lids.
