• UNICEF: Rwandan and Liberian youth in Eye See III WorkshopNEW YORK, USA, 24 April 2008 -- Each equipped with a camera and a unique perspective, dozens of children in Rwanda and Liberia recently spent a week with internationally renowned photographer and frequent UNICEF contributor Giacomo Pirozzi for a series of training workshops called 'Eye See III'.The idea for the UNICEF-supported Eye See workshop series originated in Pakistan after the October 2005 earthquake there, with an initial focus on documenting children's experiences in displacement camps. The goal of the workshops is to teach children photography and provide them with a fun, compelling tool with which to capture the images of their lives.To read the full story, visit: http://www.unicef.org/infobycountry/rwanda_43670.html

• Isha Foundation - Tsunami Relief & Rehabilitation"We must understand what the disaster is. A huge wave is not the disaster. The disaster is human. People who lost their family, that's the disaster. Somebody lost his livelihood; somebody lost his home; that's the disaster. Somebody doesn't have something to eat tonight; that's the disaster. So, this disaster is not just on the physical plane. A human being's suffering is hugely within himself, more than outside. A few packets of food may arrive, and he may get to eat; however, the new conditions - that he has to sit on the street side and eat, not in his home, and that his family has disappeared - that is the real disaster, the human part of it." - SadhguruTsunami Relief & RehabilitationIsha Foundation which already operated centers in the coastal regions of Tamil Nadu was quick in its response to the unprecedented and catastrophic death and destruction caused by the tsunami on 26th December, 2004. In coastal areas of Chidambaram and Cuddalore and the devastated villages in Vellankovil and Nagapattanam, thousands of Isha volunteers from all walks of life tirelessly operated relief camps from the very first day, offering food, shelter, quality medical assistance and psychological relief to the victims. Specially designed Isha Yoga classes were also conducted to help those affected cope with the disaster, through physically and psychologically strengthening tools.Personally participating in the relief and rehabilitation programs, Sadhguru made several visits to the affected areas -- closely directing and overseeing the process. Eight Mobile Health Clinics complete with their medical teams, supplies and thousands of volunteers were immediately moved from their project sites to the coast and put at the disposal of the district administration.Subsequently, in close working with the district administration, Isha Foundation adopted four villages in Cuddalore district and completed a model rehabilitation program that was highly acclaimed by the beneficiary communities and the state administration alike. In addition, Mobile Health Clinics were permanently dedicated to implementing the project Action for Rural Rejuvenation in 60 coastal villages.Isha Foundation delivered its first permanent house to the victims within 30 days of the disaster. The novel housing design developed promptly by Sadhguru himself, was certified as fire, earthquake, cyclone and tsunami proof by various institutions. Further, a boat manufacturing facility was set up on the premises of Isha Yoga Center to respond to the urgent need for fishing boats (the sole livelihood provider of coastal villagers). Volunteer engineers and professionals assisted to restore livelihoods lost through the calamity.A massive tree planting program and creation of a green belt through Project Green Hands was also undertaken and is ongoing in coastal villages affected by the tsunami.For in-depth information about Isha Foundation's Tsunami Relief and Rehabilitation operations please visitwww.ruralrejuvention.org/relief.http://www.ishafoundation.org/Disaster-Response/Tsunami-Relief-&-Rehabilitation.isa

• 2007 TED Prize Winner James Nachtweyhttp://www.ted.com Accepting his 2007 TED Prize, James Nachtwey talks about his decades as a photojournalist. A slideshow of his photos, beginning in 1981 in Northern Ireland, reveals two parallel themes in his work. First, as he says: "The frontlines of contemporary wars are right where people live." Street violence, famine, disease: he has photographed all these modern WMDs. Second, when a photo catches the world's attention, it can truly drive action and change. In his TED wish, he asks for help gaining access to a story that needs to be told, and developing a new, digital way to show these photos to the world. (Recorded March 2007 in Monterey, CA.

• They sing like angels their powerful voices blend effortlessly - The Priestshttp://www.ThePriests.comThe Priests, a vocal group consisting of just what the name implies, have been enjoying a great deal of exposure lately. The group has been featured on television shows, has performed in cathedrals and churches around Europe and has been the subject of articles in major newspapers. This likely has happened, in part, because a group of priests singing devotional songs is not what people usually think of as popular music.The Priests, however, can attribute a great deal of their recent popularity to their abilities rather than their image. Their love for the music comes through in their performances and the depth of their sincerity is apparent in their voices. Composed of three talented singers, two tenors and a bass, who have been singing together for 30 years, The Priests have turned their love of music into a means for them to reach out to audiences worldwide.And reach out they have. The group was featured on The Alan Titchmarsh's ITV show in September of 2008 and was, in that same month, the subject of a feature article in the UK's Daily Telegraph newspaper. They've also appeared on the Public Broadcasting Service in the United States and have even been the subject of an article in Time Magazine. The group has also seen some success on video sharing sites, where their traditional devotional music and Irish songs seem not at all out of place on what constitutes the most modern of ways to distribute music.In November, The Priests will release their first album on the Epic label, a subsidiary of Sony BMG. Record labels, whose business sensibilities are legendary, have long known that traditional music, be it sacred or secular, is a big seller and The Priest's unique sound lends something to it that has made it popular wherever they've performed.The group is recording in some rather prestigious locations, as well, including St. Peter's Basilica in The Vatican. All of the proceeds from their album sales are slated to go to charity, as seems fitting for musicians whose principal vocation is one of faith, not stardom.The Priests maintain an actively-updated website at ThePriests.com which contains audio of the group performing. Members consist of brothers Martin and Eugene O'Hagan and David Delargy, all of whom remain active with their clergy duties which, according to the group, come before anything else.

• Unlocking the Power of Women: CAREVisit http://www.care.org/ to find out how you can fight global poverty by empowering women and girls and promoting gender equality.Women and girls are the most impoverished, most discriminated-against group on earth. Of the 1.3 billion people living in absolute poverty worldwide, 70% are women and girls. Women work two-thirds of the world's working hours, but earn only 10 percent of its income. They produce half the world's food, but own only 1% of its land. And when it comes to literacy, two-thirds of the world's 900 illiterate adults are women.

• NYMag.com: Make PDT's Bacon-Infused Old-fashionedIn the magazine this week, maple syrup was a key ingredient in the "In Season" recipe. Don Lee of PDT may use maple syrup to make his old-fashioned, but we couldn't get past the bacon-infused bourbon that is the base of the drink. Bacon? Bourbon? We're in. And since we took our camera to PDT yesterday to watch Lee prepare the drink himself, we can all practice at home. Frequently. Video by Jonah Green

• a few DIY musical instruments from Dennis HavlenaHi - Here's a short sampling of a few of the simple folk instruments whoseconstruction is detailed on my webpage at http://DennisHavlena.comThis video was made in my back yard, on the spur of the moment and is not intendedto be fancy music -- just to show some of the instruments, which include -- in order:- 3 string cookie-tin banjo with weed- whip line strings. Tune is "the Cuckoo".- "Tambiro" made from a new (never-been-filled) 20 Lb. propane tank.- My "Fiddle-Gurdy" combination fiddle & Hurdy Gurdy. Much fun! I apologize for the squeak here and there -- I was impatient to get things on Youtube. Tune is an old French Canadian Voyageur's melody, "En Roullant Ma Boulle".Inspiration from Yuichi Onoue's "Kaisatsuko".- My 4-string, full sized wash-tub bass. Holds it's own nicely in a band situation.- Simple Hardanger fiddle conversion. 4 strings playing & 4 strings sympathetic that run through a tunnel carved into the underside of the fingerboard. Tunes are "Road to Boston" (aka "Col. Greene's March") and "Over the Waterfall".- Low D Tin-Whistle made from a shower-curtain rod for a few dollars. Tune is made up on the spot (& it sounds it!).- Octave Mandolin (aka bozouki, cittern) converted from an old guitar. Tune is the"Boys of Bluehill" hornpipe.PS: I just put another short video onYouTube of my PVC tubing instrument thatplays like a hang drum, at this web address:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5dD4KkJcAwPS: Also see my propane-tank hank drum at:http://youtube.com/watch?v=bpMS15kJyOY&mode=related&search=My webpage describing building these instruments is at this URL:http://DennisHavlena.comThanks!PLEASE NOTE: A real, Swiss-made hang drum is VERY difficult to obtain these days. A ray of hope is on the horizon however--Pantheon Steel, a maker of beautiful steel drums ("steel pans") is researching and experimenting -- with the intention of producing hang drums (under a different name) for sale. Please contact them at pantheonsteel.com and encourage them!They're looking for signs of interest at this time. Dennis

Since its inception organiser Barry "Jazz" Finnegan, has given up and coming artists a chance to showcase their work to an appreciative audience on a weekly basis in Bruxelle's on Dublin's Harry Street. Unlike other promoters he's not in this for personal gain and entirely self funds the evening. His sole purpose is to promote the talents of these performers. "When you witness the amazing talents of people going unnoticed, you can stand back and do nothing, or you can do this." Regular artists appearing at the sessions include founding member of Blue Oyster Cult Joe Bouchard, Eurovision star Mickey Joe Harte, Luan Parle and Mundy.Having developed a huge cult following, March 2006 saw the release of the The Potential Collection, which showcased some of the finest new musical talent around including Angels composer Ray Heffernan, Micheal Roche, Brian McGovern and Tyrone Relph. Such was its popularity that due to demand Barry has now put together a second volume of the popular collection featuring 12 more inspiring tracks performed by some of the regular musicians. This second compilation boasts a wide range of acoustic styles from folk to soul. Some of the acts contributing to the eagerly awaited album include:- Jezzebelle, winners of Clonmel National Song Contest 2007 and NOISE Battle of the bands 2007;- G.D.C. (Grá Don Ceoil), whose video from The Zodiac Sessions of the song "Jazz" was featured on YouTube receiving over 53,000 hits;- Wayne Brennan, whose single "And I Love" has received extensive airplay across the radio waves and its video featured recently on Channel 6.
