Listen to “Doha Airport in Qatar is Sustainable” on Spreaker.

Hamad International Airport

In just ten years, Hamad International Airport (DOH) has become a global gateway and a benchmark of aviation excellence.

A Permanent Wildlife Sculpture Collection installed at Hamad International Airport

03 June 2025

The Seven Art pieces by Gillie and Marc showcase Qatar Airways Group’s commitment to wildlife conservation and protecting endangered species worldwide

Hamad International Airport (DOH) unveils “Wildlife Wonderscapes”, a permanent collection of interactive sculptures by renowned artists Gillie and Marc. The installed bronze art pieces reflect Qatar Airways Group’s dedication to wildlife conservation and highlight the importance of protecting endangered species.

Originally part of a globally recognized series, the artwork has been adapted for Hamad International Airport with distinct Qatari elements, including native species. The sculptures unite endangered animals, delivering a message of coexistence, reconnecting with nature, and a hope for a safer future for wildlife.

Hamad Ali Al-Khater, Chief Operating Officer at Hamad International Airport, said:

“Airports are places of movement, connection and reflection. The Wildlife Wonderscapes sculptures by renowned artists Gillie and Marc have been chosen to be part of our terminal’s permanent art collection for their powerful message of conservation. Wildlife Wonderscapes encourages engagement with our passengers making every journey memorable and greatly adds to the diverse iconic art curated across Hamad International Airport.”

Gillie and Marc said:

“We are incredibly honored to unveil our largest permanent wildlife sculpture exhibition at Hamad International Airport. It’s our dream to inspire millions of travellers to fall in love with the wild and to understand the urgent need to protect it. Through art, we hope to give a voice to the voiceless and remind the world that every species matters.”

The ORCHARD, an indoor tropical garden at the heart of the terminal, was chosen as a key location for the sculptures. Originally brought to life through greenery, it now evolves with the introduction of animal sculptures, reinforcing the message that nature and wildlife are interconnected and must be protected.

This installation reflects the Group’s ongoing commitment to wildlife conservation that is represented through many of its business functions. Qatar Airways Cargo’s WeQare: Rewild the Planet initiative strives to restore wildlife to their natural habitats and contributes to ensuring biodiversity for future generations. Qatar Airways’ partnership with United for Wildlife as its Official Airline Partner focuses on curbing illegal wildlife trade. The Group enforces strict policies, staff trainings, and awareness campaigns for every stage of the passenger journey.

As the first airline in the Middle East independently certified by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) for its anti-trafficking initiatives, Qatar Airways remains committed to prioritizing wildlife protection and promoting conservation efforts.

Among the exhibition highlights is a 3.5m x 10.5m “Wild Table of Love in Doha”, a which is made of six tonnes of bronze featuring a scene of native and endangered animals gathered around one table – a symbol of shared space and coexistence. Other works include a 10m sculpture named “They Were on Wild Ride in Doha”, and three series of the “Falcon with Glove”, which pays tribute to Qatar’s falconry heritage.

Passengers are encouraged to engage with the artworks and share their experience by using #BeTheWildHIA helping amplify the message of wildlife conservation as part of the global efforts to protect the planet.

Remember Saul Zabar…

To ALSO Listen to the AUDIO PODCAST, Click Here:
Listen to “What a great man Aaron Zabar, one of the World’s Greatest Food Markets in the World, at 80th Street and Broadway, NY” on Spreaker.

The Zabar’s Story
90 years, and 4 generations later, Zabar’s family business is still going strong.

Our father and mother, Louis and Lillian Zabar, started the business back in 1934, opening a 22-foot-wide shop along NYC’a Broadway at West 80th Street. Louis was a real stickler for quality, roasting his own coffee, and personally visiting smokehouses to sample and inspect the fish – rejecting far more than he accepted.

The principles and practices of our founder and father continue to guide us: Respect the customer. Never, ever stint on quality. Offer fair value. And last but not least, keep searching for the new and wonderful.

Without question, this last point has accounted for some memorable moments. Back in the 1960’s, we introduced New York to Brie, in the ‘70’s we brought them sun-dried tomatoes and gnocchi, and in the ‘80’s, we got so excited about caviar – and wanted everyone to taste it – that our prices set off a so-called “Caviar War”. (Incidentally, we won.)

Over the years, the business kept growing, and today we span practically the entire block front. With our sons, daughters and their cousins, we’re still at it – hand-slicing meltingly delicious smoked fish behind our deli counter…offering tastes of the latest artisanal cheeses…setting out fresh-baked batches of rugelach (it’s our Bubbe’s recipe)…overseeing the roasting of our special coffee blends (we sell 400,000 pounds a year!) Retire? Not on your life – we’re having too much fun!

As Louis taught us, to succeed as a family business, you have to love each other, and love the business – in our case, great food, great service, great prices, great folks. We ask you, what’s not to love?!

Here’s to another 80 years, and then some! Heartfelt thanks for your patronage.

– Saul & Stanley Zabar

Reid Stowe, the World’s Longest Sailor… is still Standing!

Mars Ocean Analogs Returns to NYC after a series of voyages to and from Starbase, TX

NEW YORK, NY – Mars Ocean Analogs (MOA) proudly announces the triumphant return of Captain Reed Stowe to New York City on June 15, 2025, concluding a remarkable series of ocean voyages designed to prepare future astronauts for the rigors of deep space exploration. Over the past six months, Captain Stowe and his diverse crews sailed the Atlantic twice, once through the Caribbean, and twice across the Gulf of Mexico, culminating in a historic journey to Starbase, Texas and back. This ambitious expedition underscores MOA’s mission to provide challenging training for the space community through real-world analog experiences.

The ambitious series of five back to back Mars Ocean Analogs began in New York, NY on December 22, 2024 in 16 degree weather and ended June 15 in a lighting and thunder filled rain storm. This is the only deep space training program where the analog astronauts have to prove their physical abilities and overcome real danger and fear that nest prepares them for what they aspire to face on a real Mars mission. Going to sea on a relatively small sailboat is challenging and the program was not designed to be easy.

Captain Stowe, a world-record holder for his 1,152-day non-stop voyage at sea (846 days without seeing another human), designed these expeditions to impart his hard-earned expertise. Through hands-on experience, he taught participants the mental and physical endurance techniques that su

stained him during his historic journey. “The ocean is a classroom for deep space,” said Stowe. “By sharing how I thrived in isolation for over three years, I’m preparing these crews for the psychological and practical demands of a three year Mars mission.” By completing this journey, MOA sets a new benchmark for analog training, proving the ocean’s power to prepare humanity for the stars.

The Schooner Starship that still holds the record for The Longest Sea Voyage in History and carries out the boldest Mars training missions is battered from many sea miles, but possesses timeless magic, wonder, and astounds all who come aboard.

Listen to “PAUSE THE WORLD FOR PEACE HOSTED A HISTORIC BROADCAST, Giorgia Fumanti” on Spreaker.

THE FIRST EVER 100% SOLAR-POWERED CONCERT IN TIMES SQUARE FOR PEACE & ECOLOGY – POWERED BY BATTERY TOUR WITH RINGO STARR VIRTUALLY REQUESTING A MOMENT OF PEACE AT 12PM ET ON SEPTEMBER 21, 2023

PEACE LEGENDS JOIN FORCES WITH YOUNG GLOBAL INFLUENCERS IN A MOVEMENT FOR PEACE, HUMAN SECURITY, AND CLIMATE ACTION, AS TIMES SQUARE IN NEW YORK CITY PAUSES FOR PEACE.

DATE & TIME: SEPTEMBER 21, 2023 LIVE BROADCAST STARTED AT 12:00PM EDT VIA UNIFY at www.facebook.com/UNIFY and www.youtube.com/goodnewsbroadcast. The website for the event is: www.pausetheworldforpeace.org

On September 21st, 2023 on the UN International Day of Peace, the 21st. Annual Pause The World for Peace Broadcast, both in-person and global virtual audiences experienced the first ever 100% solar-powered concert in Times Square for peace and ecology, powered by multi-faceted musical artist and climate activist AY Young and his Battery Tour. Also featured is mental tranquility advocate and acclaimed singer Michel Pascal, who was joined by US Presidential Candidate, author, and activist Marianne Williamson and Myron McKinley of Earth, Wind, & Fire. As a part of the larger six-hour Peace Day event, this concert shared virtual messages from legacy peacekeepers like Ringo Starr, Leonardo DiCaprio, Michael Douglas, Jane Goodall, Sir Paul McCartney, Oprah Winfrey, Deepak Chopra, Joe Dispenza, Stevie Wonder, Dionne Warwick, and Shakira. The nonprofit event producer Good News Corporation has partnered with OMMM, UNIFY, WE.net, AY Young, Battery Tour, SmartFlower, Playa Betty’s, 5 Star Diamond Award, Samsung, GM, BNP Paribas, Hugg-A Planet, New York Parks and Recreation, and Times Square Alliance.

Reverend Paul Sladkus, All Faiths, and Spiritual and Executive Producer for 21 years in Central Park, NY, Times Square, NY, and worldwide stated, “ This year’s participation exceeded our expectation to strengthen the message of International Peace, along with showing our love for MOTHER EARTH. Here are the links for the three parts, approx. 2 hours each. We are in negotiation for additional broadcast because Pausing the World for Peace is always needed”

https://pausetheworldforpeace.org/2023/11/09/part-3-pause-the-world-for-hope-2023/

The Battery Tour’s involvement in the Pause the World for Peace event was highly intentional. On a mission to break barriers and build bridges, AY Young was appointed by the United Nations as the Global Youth Leader for the Sustainable Development Goals in 2020, Generation 17 Youth Ambassador, and SDG Champion. AY has performed over 800 concerts powered entirely by the Battery Tour’s renewable energy. “We are all outlets for change,” says the artist. And driving positive change was a major theme between Pause the World for Peace event collaborators.

Michel Pascal led a dance meditation and musical performance, seamlessly combining the serenity of meditation, and the joy of dance, promising a unique and transformative experience. Pascal, is co-founder of OMMM which is a movement to create a positive impact on individuals and communities worldwide through the practice of meditation, music, and multimedia content. Pascal, A.K.A “The Medicine Voice,” has been performing at Carnegie Hall since 2016, while working closely with marginalized communities, including prisoners and veterans. The concert featured a bilingual meditation guided by Juliana Klinkert, an esteemed meditation teacher known for her work at the Amity Foundation and in Hispanic communities.

Young and Pascal, along with the generations they represent, continue a wave of peace work built on the foundations of champions of peace like David Gershon (led 1986 Earth Run Torch of Peace), Ben Bowler (founder of UNITY Earth bringing cease-fires for peace), his eminence Shyalpa Rinpoche (currently building Universal Peace Sanctuary at UNESCO World Heritage Site for Peace), Jonathan Granoff (World Academy of Art & Science Fellow and UN Ambassador to the Nobel Peace Laureates), and Jeremy Gilley (founder of Peace One Day with Sir Paul McCartney message). They, like others both in New York and nationally, including Michael Fitzpatrick (25-year cellist to the Dalai Lama), Rick Ulfic & Andrew Kaen (established 11 Days of Global Unity), Reverend Susana Bastarrica & James Cannings (founded Vigil for International Day of Peace), and Reverend Deborah Muldow & Fumi Johns (of May Peace Prevail on Earth with 250,000 Peace Poles worldwide), Peace Lights Peter Rogina, have dedicated their lives to empowering communities, fostering cooperation, and addressing global challenges with social innovations. Seeds planted decades ago are breaking ground as a new surge of activism takes shape in a post-pandemic society ready for collaborative action.

The Pause the World for Peace event included a special segment entitled “Peace in Action” with renowned representatives sharing the latest in major global issues, including domestic violence, school safety, human rights, human security, animal rights, climate action, and ending violence in health, politics, and religion, regardless of gender, race, or disability, promoting practical paths to a thriving life for all. A special military and police tribute for fallen heroes was featured.

The Pause the World for Peace event, set in the Duffy Square section of Times Square, NY, is hosted by the Good News Corporation, whose founder Reverend Paul Sladkus has continued to be a leader in rallying movements for peace in action. Sladkus, who is an ordained all-faith minister, implores, “193 countries in the UN unanimously agreed to a CEASE FIRE EVERYWHERE, ACTS OF PEACE & LOVE, and WE CAN DO IT. We listened to Ringo Starr at 12:00 pm Noon ET as he requested a Worldwide Moment of Silence for PEACE, from Times Square, virtually on September 21, 2023, and we prayed to keep that moment going for peace and ecology to last FOREVER.”

The event ran until 5:00PM EDT and aired to the world via UNIFY (received 2 billion views with the UN for Peace Day in 2017), which broadcasted the program to their combined partner audience of millions worldwide. McKinsey Co. stated that there are 1.6 billion people worldwide already aware of the International Day of Peace. Pause the World for Peace aimed to amplify the urgent need for collective action and global cooperation. Together, we stand in solidarity to promote peace, human security, and climate action for a better and brighter future for all.

Musicians who performed with Michel Pascal were Myron McKinley, Earth, Wind and Fire Musical Director, Paul Pesco, legendary guitarist of Madonna and Jennifer Lopez; Stacey Lamont Sydnor, iconic drummer of The Jackson 5; Ian Martin, soulful bassist known for collaborations with David Foster and Barry Manilow; Randy J.
