Internationally renowned linguist and activist Noam Chomsky expressed support for the movement protesting the opening of the Koodankulam Nuclear Power Plant in India. He said that Koodankulam could be another industrial disaster like Bhopal. Many other prominent figures from India, Sri Lanka, Denmark, Germany, Ireland and filmmakers also expressed solidarity with the anti-nuclear movement at Koodankulam, citing environmental and health concerns. The campaign to garner national and international support through online posters on Countercurrents.org has been generating more backing through social media and other internet platforms.
The document discusses several signs that indicate we are living in the end times based on biblical prophecy:
1) The Euphrates River being dried up allows Turkey to control its flow, fulfilling Revelation 16:12.
2) China now has an army large enough at 200 million to fulfill the prophecy in Revelation 9:15-16.
3) The emergence of worldwide numbering systems like Social Security numbers means everyone can now be tracked, fulfilling Revelation 13:16-17.
4) Terms like "new world order" show the rise of a one-world government as prophesied in Revelation 13:7 and Daniel 7:23.
Taken together, the fulfillment of these major biblical
This document is the May/June 2001 issue of the magazine Endtime. It discusses two major prophetic events that could occur soon: 1) The confirmation of a covenant related to Jerusalem and Israel's Third Temple, marking the beginning of the final 7 years. 2) The coming China War that will kill one-third of the world's population, as prophesied in the 6th Trumpet War. It also previews articles on the establishment of the International Criminal Court and why the author believes Jesus will return during their lifetime.
Fairtrade foods typically come from agricultural products grown in poorer countries, including bananas, coffee, tea, nuts, sugar, and chocolate. Shops pay farmers a fair price for their crops through the Fairtrade system, which began in the 1980s to help farmers in poorer nations feed their families and invest in improving their farms.
Prophecy Lost And Found - Prophecy In The News Magazine - March 2007miscott57
The document discusses how and why premillennial dispensationalism, the belief that Christ will return before establishing his kingdom on Earth, fell out of favor after the 1st century. It states that in the 2nd-3rd centuries church leaders began applying Old Testament prophecies about Israel to the church instead, thinking Israel no longer had a future. This view became dominant for over 17 centuries until John Nelson Darby revived premillennialism in the 19th century by concluding the early church fathers were wrong to spiritualize prophecies about Israel.
This document is from a Christian magazine discussing world events from a biblical perspective. It summarizes several prophecies from the book of Revelation that are being fulfilled, including the drying up of the Euphrates River allowing an invasion of Israel, China fielding an army of 200 million soldiers, the emergence of worldwide numbering systems like Social Security numbers, and the establishment of a new world order and global governance. It argues these simultaneous fulfillments defy coincidence and are signs that the end times described in Revelation are upon us.

The Journey to 100% Electronic Survey and Title Lodgement - LINZVincent Kwon
This document summarizes Land Information New Zealand's (LINZ) journey to transitioning its land title and survey systems to fully electronic. It involved three stages from 1998-2009: Stage 1 digitized paper records and enabled electronic transactions. Stage 2 enabled remote lodgement of survey plans and titles. Stage 3 aimed for 100% electronic lodgement. Challenges included software issues, conversion efforts, and stakeholder concerns. Solutions included risk-based funding, mandatory dates, training, and infrastructure upgrades. The transition resulted in reduced offices, staff, fees and processing times while providing faster, more integrated and accessible land information services.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help boost feelings of calmness, happiness and focus.
Waking Up To A World Currency - tna - Sept 27 2010miscott57
This letter discusses the Obama administration's decision to sue Arizona over its new immigration law but not California, even though California has a similar law. The writer notes that California Penal Code Section 834b requires law enforcement to verify immigration status and notify federal authorities, which is similar to provisions in Arizona's law. The letter questions why the administration is not also suing California given that it has a comparable law.
This document discusses the importance of proper nutrition and diet during pregnancy. It recommends eating a balanced diet that includes taking prenatal vitamins and supplements, getting adequate iron, folic acid, and other nutrients. Following a pregnancy nutrition plan can help ensure proper development of the baby's brain, nervous system, reduce birth defects, and support a strong immune system. Eating well during pregnancy can help the baby be born healthy and potentially affect their lifelong health. The document emphasizes adjusting one's diet to accommodate nutritional needs rather than simply eating more, and provides recommendations for a healthy pregnancy diet including fruits/veggies, whole grains, moderate fat and protein.
Search & Selection for Opportunities (Disruptive Innovation Strategy)PwC
The document discusses disruptive innovation and managing innovation through discontinuous change. It outlines two approaches for established players - Type 1 operates within clear rules and routines, while Type 2 has no clear rules and relies on emergent patterns. Managing discontinuous innovation requires searching in unlikely places, building strange partnerships, exploring new perspectives, and making early bets on high-risk ventures. The key is maintaining diversity, enabling odd conversations, and working with ambiguity through a process of probing and learning.
This document discusses how tablet technology promotes interaction and creativity in older adults. It references an article from the UOC website about an iPad project that fostered interaction among older people. The article notes that high time pressure inhibits individual and collective creative processes.
