World Interfaith Harmony Week 2012

February 21, 2012 By admin Leave a Comment

The World Interfaith Harmony Week was first proposed at the UN General Assembly on September 23, 2010 by H.M. King Abdullah II of Jordan. Just under a month later, on October 20, 2010, it was unanimously adopted by the UN and henceforth the first week of February will be observed as a World Interfaith Harmony Week. The World Interfaith Harmony Week is based on the pioneering work of The Common Word initiative. This initiative, which started in 2007, called for Muslim and Christian leaders to engage in a dialogue based on two common fundamental religious Commandments; Love of God, and Love of the Neighbour, without nevertheless compromising any of their own religious tenets. The Two commandments are at the heart of the three Monotheistic religions and therefore provide the most solid … [Continue reading...]

Marital Agreements for Those Over 50

January 28, 2012 By admin Leave a Comment

By most accounts, approximately 50% of marriages end in divorce. Hammering out the financial issues in advance can prevent much costly legal wrangling later. If you feel it is unromantic to establish end-game parameters ahead of time, guess what- they already exist in the form of divorce law. If you are the prospective spouse with more property, the divorce law in your state may cause you to give up more than you feel is fair. This is of particular concern to high net worth individuals in brief but unsuccessful marriages ie. Paul McCartney and Katy Perry. Even if you are willing to throw caution to the wind for the sake of love, other people such as business partners or adult children may be negatively impacted by the decision. This is especially true in a second marriage situation. … [Continue reading...]

Songwriter and Singer Sakura Paine

December 1, 2011 By admin Leave a Comment

When it comes to music, there is always a passion, a story, or maybe a life to tell about through someone who has talent. Everyone starts somewhere and no matter what even if that person doesn't get a shot right or away or even one at all, they will always obtain that talent and it will never disappear. These are the ones who should be heard and need to be heard. Music in the present today, known as the mainstream, has been deceased in a mental way. There are no meanings or feeling and someone always wants to be on top so you can bet that a "fight" will happen for the crown. Songwriter and singer Ashley, better known by here "stage name" Sakura Paine, has plenty of stories to tell through her arts of music. Over 100 songs since the age of 11 has been written and every song better than … [Continue reading...]

Lois B. Victor is the founder of the Victor Centers for Jewish Genetic Diseases

November 21, 2011 By admin Leave a Comment

Awareness and Testing Many Americans Who Are Unsure of Their Ancestry Could be at Risk for Genetic Disorders Everyone knows America is a great melting pot for the world. However what most people don’t know is that their ancestor’s ethnicity could make them high risk for 19 disorders known as Jewish genetic diseases that could threaten the health and life of their children, even if they don’t think they have Jewish ancestors. That’s because genetic disease carriers are themselves healthy and have no prior family history of the disease. That meant that until recently, many prospective parents had no way of knowing whether they were carriers of a variety of genetic disease – such as cystic fibrosis or Tay-Sachs Disease. But when two carriers had a child it was too late … [Continue reading...]
