Help Us End Aerial Hunting of Alaska’s Wolves

http://www.eyeonpalin.org/index.php


Over the past five years, Alaska’s aerial hunting program has claimed the lives of more than 800 hundred wolves. Despite strong scientific, ethical and public opposition to aerial hunting, Governor Sarah Palin has…

* Proposed paying a $150 bounty for the left foreleg of each dead wolf.
* Approved a $400,000 state-funded propaganda campaign to promote aerial hunting.
* Introduced legislation to make it even easier to use aircraft to hunt wolves and bears.

The Letter...

As a supporter of Defenders of Wildlife Action Fund and someone who cares about sound wildlife management, I strongly urge you to withdraw your support for the use of aircraft to hunt and kill Alaska's wolves and bears.

Alaska is well known for its amazing wildlife and stunning natural beauty. It is appalling that your office and others in the state government continue to sanction the brutal aerial hunting of the state's majestic wolves and bears in nearly 60,000 square miles of the state.

As I am sure you are aware, aerial hunting was outlawed by the federal government in 1972. Yet Alaska officials continue to skirt the law and permit aerial hunting, claiming that this terrible practice is necessary for wildlife management -- an assertion that is not supported by available data on wildlife population numbers.

This unwarranted program often leads to inhumane deaths, with hunters in low-flying aircraft shooting down wolves or chasing them to exhaustion, and landing and killing the animal at close range. In some cases, wounded wolves escape, only to experience a slow, painful death.

This program is an embarrassment to the State of Alaska, and it is past time that state officials put an end to this brutal and unnecessary program.

Thank you for considering my comments.

Take ACTION
Spend 5 Mins to Join International Fund for Animal Welfare

http://www.ifaw.org/ifaw_international/index.php

From the outset, the founders of the International Fund for Animal Welfare, or IFAW, rejected the notion that the interests of humans and animals were separate. Instead they embraced the understanding that the fate and future of harp seals-and all other animals on Earth-are inextricably linked to our own.

IFAW's courageous actions drew international attention to the plight of the seal pups and successfully rallied worldwide condemnation of the hunt. Thanks to IFAW's continued vigilance, it is now illegal to hunt whitecoat seal pups for commercial purposes on the ice floes off Canada's east coast. This is a fragile victory, however, for Canada's commercial seal hunt persists. IFAW continues to document and expose abuses of the commercial hunt and press for an end to this cruel, unsustainable slaughter. Over the years, the small team of committed campaigners reaching out to help seals has grown to become the world's leading international animal welfare organization. IFAW begins its fourth decade of operation with more than 200 experienced campaigners, legal and political experts, and internationally acclaimed scientists working from offices in 15 countries around the world.

We are now joined in this important work by some two million contributors worldwide. This broad base of support makes it possible for IFAW to engage communities, government leaders, and like-minded organizations around the world and achieve lasting solutions to pressing animal welfare and conservation challenges-solutions that benefit both animals and people. Over the years, our approach has been as varied as the species we protect.

Urge Your Senator to Help Save Cats and Rare Canines from Extinction [Urgent!]
The Great Cats and Rare Canids Act would provide much needed resources for the conservation of endangered rare cat and canine species around the world. These species include the jaguar lion, snow leopard, cheetah, African wild dog, Ethiopian wolf, and many other iconic animals. The House of Representatives has already passed this important measure, but the Senate must act soon if the bill is to become law.

Protect Wild Tigers [Urgent!]
Urge your Congressional representative to sign a letter to the Chinese Government supporting China’s ban on the trade in tigers.

Humpbacks get reprieve but Japan is still targeting almost 1,000 whales [Urgent!]
Japan's whaling fleet is in Antarctica and is targeting almost 1,000 whales. Despite agreeing not to take 50 humpback whales this season after international condemnation, 935 minkes and 50 endangered fin whales are still being hunted. Please urge your Senators and Representative to help stop this slaughter.

eBay

I am writing to thank you for instituting a global ban on the sale of elephant ivory products.

It is estimated 20,000 elephants are slaughtered each year for their tusks. Some of this ivory could end up for sale on the Internet. Hopefully your leadership will result in governments and other online traders also banning elephant ivory.

Sincerely,
Paul Westmerland

The 8 States of Consciousness

Waking, dreaming and sleeping. But only by spending time in silence, stillness, or meditation do we experience a fourth state of consciousness where we start to glimpse our soul. When we glimpse our soul, we become a little more intuitive. We start to feel that things are not just what they seem to be; there is something more behind the scenes.

The physical world we normally experience is a shadow of the real world. The real world, the world of spirit, exists behind a veil, and the veil is our own conditioning. In truth, we are not bound by the world of space, time, matter, and causation, but the veil prevents us from seeing this truth. It also prevents us from living in power, freedom, and grace.

In the fourth state of consciousness, we begin to sense the deeper reality that is orchestrating the physical world, and there is a tearing in the veil that separates the physical and spiritual realms. Just as we have to wake up from the dream state to experience waking consciousness, we have to wake up from what we call waking consciousness to glimpse our spirit, our inner self. This is called glimpsing the soul, and it’s the fourth state of consciousness. It’s simply to be in touch with our soul.

This leads to the fifth state of consciousness, or cosmic consciousness, when our soul fully wakes up in waking, dreaming, and sleeping. Our body can be fast asleep, but our soul, the silent witness, is watching the body in deep sleep. Our body can be walking, and the silent witness is watching the body walk. Our awareness is localized in space time, and it’s non-local, or transcendent, at the same time.

If we don’t interfere with nature’s intelligence, then we start to awaken into the sixth state of consciousness, divine consciousness. In divine consciousness, we see and feel the presence of spirit in everything. When we wake up in divine consciousness, we don’t just see a leaf, or a table, or a cloud, or a rainbow; we see the whole universe being all these things.

Next, we waken to the seventh state of consciousness, which is unity consciousness. This is when the spirit inside us, which is now fully awake, merges with the spirit inside objects, which are also now fully awake. The universe is conscious, and because it is conscious, it is conscious of itself. So the eighth state of consciousness, infinite consciousness, is its own observer. The observer is the discontinuity, the gap, the off.

Adapted from Power, Freedom, and Grace, by Deepak Chopra (Amber Allen, 2006).

WHAT IS CONSCIOUS LIVING?


The Art of Conscious Living is about taking the time for yourself to think about and choose the life you want. It is about understanding and changing any negative thoughts, patterns and behaviours we may have. It is about raising self awareness, becoming aware of our thoughts and words, choosing them consciously and carefully, taking back our power. By taking the time to examine our lives, our own needs, and our behaviours we are not only much more likely to achieve the things we seek but also really learn from our past successes and mistakes. In this way, we take back our power and our lives, you are in charge, not your subconscious. But even more importantly, as you live consciously, you are now learning, and can modify old beliefs with your new adult experiences. This means that your automatic responses, which you will always have to rely on for those sudden and immediate responses will now respond along the lines of the person you are today.
