MaximsNewsNetwork: 30 October 2009 - UNTV - United Nations: UN officials pay tribute to the five UN staff killed on Wednesday after a deadly attack in Kabul. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon calls for more political, material and financial support for UN staff security.
Top UN officials today (30 October) paid tribute to the five UN staff killed on Wednesday in a deadly attack in Kabul, calling for urgent improvements in the security arrangements for UN staff.
After a moment of silence in honor of the fallen colleagues, Secretary-General Ban Ki moon, told a town-hall meting that too often we take our security for granted, and appealed for more political, material and financial support for staff security from member states. He added that despite the clear need our security management system continues to suffer from resource constraints.
The Head of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Helen Clark told the meeting that these horrific acts test our courage not only to do our jobs in the field, but also to hold fast to the ideals that took us there, and voiced support for the Secretary-Generals call to do the utmost to fund and support us in providing the best possible security arrangements in such environments.
The Executive Director of the United Nations Children Fund (UNICEF) Ann Veneman said that the incident in Kabul was yet another painful reminder of how UN staff continue to work in difficult and dangerous environments to assist those who are most in need and concluded that insuring the safety of humanitarian workers is of utmost priority.
Yesterday, the Security Council, in a presidential statement, voiced support for the measures already taken by Ban to ensure staff security and said it looked forward to further detailed proposals by him. It also commended the determination of the UN not to be deterred by the tragic incident and to carry on its mission in Afghanistan.

Quotes about Peace and how to create it by www.peaceday.tv ~ Peace is your's if you make it!

"When we look at modern man, we have to face the fact that modern man suffers from a kind of poverty of the spirit, which stands in glaring contrast with a scientific and technological abundance. We've learned to fly the air as birds, we've learned to swim the seas as fish, yet we haven't learned to walk the Earth as brothers and sisters."
This clip comes from the documentary "Berkeley in the Sixties" I have no more info about this speech. If you do, please post it.

A Thousand Suns tells the story of the Gamo Highlands of the African Rift Valley and the unique worldview held by the people of the region. This isolated area has remained remarkably intact both biologically and culturally. It is one of the most densely populated rural regions of Africa yet its people have been farming sustainably for 10,000 years. Shot in Ethiopia, New York and Kenya, the film explores the modern world's untenable sense of separation from and superiority over nature and how the interconnected worldview of the Gamo people is fundamental in achieving long-term sustainability, both in the region and beyond.

Millions of people in the Global South suffer from neglected diseases, many of which could be treated, even cured, if they were detected early enough. But reliable, low cost diagnosis hasn't been available, as drug companies have no incentive to invest in the diseases of the poor. New pandemics can go undetected until they have spread out of control, like HIV, and treatable ailments can cripple impoverished communities because it is too expensive to detect them early enough to do something.
LavaAmp makes possible rugged, accessible, DNA diagnostic tool to quickly respond to pandemics and neglected diseases and educational applications of molecular biology. If you like this project, consider donating for the LavaAmp at the Unreasonable Institute, www.bit.lyLavaAmp

United Nations, New York, 30 September 2010 - All countries must protect the human rights of the tens of millions of migrants worldwide who lack proper legal status and are thus more likely to face abuse, prolonged detention and ill-treatment, enslavement, rape or even murder, a United Nations-backed group warned today.
"Too often, States have addressed irregular migration solely through the lens of sovereignty, border security or law enforcement, sometimes driven by hostile domestic constituencies," the Global Migration Group (GMG) said in a statement adopted at the end of a meeting in Geneva that noted that children are particularly vulnerable.

United Nations, New York, 19 August 2009 - In a message marking the first World Humanitarian Day, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said the UN continues to draw inspiration from the legacy of the people who were killed in Baghdad, and noted that the Sergio Vieira de Mello Foundation is establishing an annual prize in his name to recognize outstanding achievements in the peaceful reconciliation of conflict.
Mr. Ban said that the men and women who serve as humanitarian workers come from many backgrounds. But they share a conviction that one persons suffering is everyones responsibility.
He stressed the need for the international community to renew our commitment to help vulnerable, voiceless and marginalized people wherever they may be. That is the abiding mission of the humanitarian community.

An inspiratonal invocation celebrating those common ties that join us: Love Compassion, Worship. You spirit will soar and your heart uplifted.
Review from Mainlypiano.com
"Blessing" is a word of encouragement or approval that usually also has a spiritual connotation to it. With an emphasis on winter and all things associated with Christmas, Seay embraces the essence of the season on both a commercial and spiritual level with her gorgeous choir of voices and multi layered keyboards. The tender yet compelling beauty of this magical recording is only further evidence that it will be when not if Seay becomes a household name.As the world faces significant economic worries and a rather bleak future, Seay counters our fears by bringing her message of hope, love, peace and joy courtesy of the ever optimistic composition All Around The World. The song encapsulates the spirit found on We Are The World and Do They Know It's Christmas? resulting in a song that will elevate and lift your spirits high.

Exploring the potential for the FDU (www.freedigitaluniverse.com) Virtual Economy to become real enough to address poverty, environment, and Millenium Development Goals (MGDs) such as universal education. FDU is a economy that pays people for participating, and also funds charities; corporations acting as Vendors in the FDU virtual forum earn profits - everyone wins! In this time of crisis, let us explore the potentials of the information age to expand access to emerging markets to empower a truly global economy, this is doable once the poor have a means to earn into the virtual knowledge marketplace. This is our purpose, a free equal human rights forum, with a universal e-currency solvent that is backed by real (public) money, that supports, individuals, charities, and commerce partners. Is this possible you ask, yes, consider this: What if Virtual Worlds were real? What makes them real is their economy. So what if we could buy real goods instead of just virtual products with our earnings? And what if we could include the entire emerging marketplace of users who have no way to currently participate in e-commerce for lack of a cred card? One purpose of the FDU model is to allow those emerging market users who have no credit card or bank account a means to earn into the economy as marketers, publishers, consultants, and through auctions of real world goods. With those earnings they can now purchase Digital Goods and services, or if they have a local exchange (called a SCALE) they can use their earnings in a local barter exchange. Explore the potentials, and websites of the Free Digital Universe platform. www.peaceportal.mobi, www.freedigitalsystem.com, www.freedigitaluniverse.com, www.sharemybiz.com, www.epaycafe.com, www.wwdf.org, www.freedigitalmarket.com, ~ http:shop.peaceportal.mobi (sample user cyber-mall) FDU launches in 2009, get your Digital Soule now at Peace Portal!
