Tel Aviv Turns Off the Lights for Earth Hour 2008

For the first time in history, Tel-Aviv will be representing Israel in the global Earth Hour 2008 and turning off the lights for one hour of energy-free bliss.

Unfortunately, as we have yet to hear about separation of church and state, let alone separation of church and globe, due to the Jewish Sabbath, Tel Aviv will kicking off the project one day earlier than the rest of the world: tomorrow, Thursday March 27, between 8pm to 9pm.

(Note to self: focus on the positive side…)

So yes, Israel is taking action, action long overdue, but action nonetheless.

Bottom line is, I dont care who you are, where you will be, what important things you’ll need to be doing.. tomorrow night please, please, please do us all a favor and:

TURN OFF THE GODDAMN LIGHTS!!!!

Thank you.

Stroke of Insight: Neuroanatomist Finds Heaven on Earth (VIDEO)

Neuroanatomist Jill Bolte Taylor had an opportunity few brain scientists could wish for: One morning, she realized she was having a massive stroke.

As it happened — as she felt her brain functions slip away one by one, speech, movement, understanding — she studied and remembered every moment.

This is one of the most powerful stories I have ever heard of recovery and awareness — of how our brains define us and connect us to the world and to one another.

A mind-blowing story of a scientist who breaks down the barriers of science and discovers our immediate access to Heaven on Earth:
