PACIF CRISIS FUNDRAISERS FOR JAPAN - ABOUT THE EVENT AND ORGANIZATION

1. Pacific Crisis Fundraiser

日本時間3月11日に起きた東北地方太平洋沖地震被害者（原文：海難被災者）のための緊急資金援助活動の準備が進められてます。


An emergency fund raising effort for the victims of the crisis in the Pacific that hit on the 10th/11th of march is being set up.


Se ha creado un esfuerzo de recaudación de fondos de emergencia para las víctimas de la crisis en el Pacífico que aconteció el 10 y 11 de Marzo de este año.
セカンドライフは確実に日本でも強力な基盤のある国際的なコミュニティーです。この災害は世界規模でコミュニティーとしてのセカンドライフが何度も立ち上がってきたような危機と同じ様に、私達（欧米人）にも衝撃ををあたえています。


SL is an international community, with a strong base in Japan specifically. This disaster is worldwide and affects us all, as a community SL has risen up time and time again to help out in times of distress, including very recently.



SL es una comunidad internacional, con una base fuerte en Japón en particular. Este desastre es a nivel mundial y nos afecta a todos. Como comunidad que somos en  SL, nos hemos unido una y otra vez para ayudar en situaciones de emergencia.

2010年9月にはセカンドライフのイベントでユニセフ・パキスタン洪水被害者救済基金へ11,000米ドルが寄付されました。イベントは四日間にわたって開催。これはセカンドライフ（原文：私達のコミュニティー）が何が出来るかの一つの例で、これからも同じようなシンプルで効果的な企画を準備しています。


In September 2010 11,000 us dollars was raised for the Pakistan flood crisis relief fund (UNICEF) at an sl event. An event organized in four days. This is an example of what our community can do, and we are attempting to prepare for a similar, simple but effective, event.
En septiembre de 2010, se recaudaron  11.000 dólares  para el fondo de alivio de la crisis de las inundaciones en Pakistán (UNICEF) en un evento de SL. Un evento organizado en cuatro días. Este es un ejemplo de lo que nuestra comunidad puede hacer, y estamos preparándonos para un evento similar, simple pero eficaz.


私達はこの基金調達の手助けをしたいと思っている人すべてに連絡を差し上げてます。私達はショップやイベント会場?に設置するためのチャリティー商品販売機を配布する予定です。（追記：販売機にはご自分の商品をチャリティー商品として入れて販売出来るものです）商品の売り上げは全額「Charity Shelter」という募金専用のアカウントへ送金されます。販売機に入れる商品は新商品である必要は無いと思います。ただし新しい商品、限定品で私達はより高額な寄付をする事が出来ます。今ある商品のバリエーションが効果的です。


We are calling for anyone who wishes to help with this fundraiser. We will be providing vendors that donate 100% of sales to a charity account (Charity Shelter) for people to place in their stores and at an event location?.
The products in these vendors don't have to be new, but the more new and exclusive items available the more money we will raise, so even a variation of an existing product is appreciated.


Hacemos un llamado a todo aquel que desee participar en este evento para recaudar fondos. Vamos a proporcionar los vendor para donaciones a nombre de Charity Shelter. Todos los diseñadores del evento donarán el 100% de las ventas a la misma cuenta. Pedimos tu apoyo para colocarles en lugares públicos y asi recaudar lo mas que se pueda.  . A los diseñadores, les pedimos que sus productos sean diferentes a los que ya venden para así poder incentivar las ventas.


Requerimos que todas las marcas implicadas vendan un producto cuyas ganancias se donen 100% a la causa, sin embargo, si vendes más de un producto, el siguiente lo puedes donar al 100% o el 50%.

Cientos de muertos a causa del Tsunami en Japón por un terremoto de 8.9 Grados Richter.


TOKYO – Un tsunami generado por uno de los terremotos mas feroces que se han registado,  cerró la costa este de Japón el viernes, matando a cientos de personas, ya que arrasó con barcos, vehículos y viviendas, mientras que los incendios quedaron fuera de control.


La policía dijo que 200 a 300 cuerpos fueron encontrados en la nororiental ciudad costera de Sendai, la ciudad en la prefectura de Miyagi, o el estado, el más cercano al epicentro. Otros 137 fueron confirmados muertos, con 531 personas desaparecidas. La policía también dijo que 627 personas resultaron heridas.


El sismo de magnitud 8.9 en alta mar desencadenó un tsunami de 23 pies (siete metros) y fue seguido durante horas por más de 50 réplicas, muchas de ellas de más de magnitud 6.0.


Decenas de ciudades y pueblos a lo largo de 1.300 millas (2.100 kilómetros) tramo de costa se vieron sacudidas por violentos temblores que llegaron a lugares tan lejanos como Tokio, cientos de millas (kilómetros) del epicentro. 


"El terremoto ha causado importantes daños en amplias áreas del norte de Japón," dijo el primer ministro Naoto Kan en una conferencia de prensa.


El sismo fue de casi 8.000 veces más fuerte que la que afectó a Nueva Zelanda el mes pasado, devastando la ciudad de Christchurch.

Las Olas del Tsunami provocan daños en Hawaii.


HONOLULU – Las olas del tsunami inundaron las playas de Hawai y sacudieron la costa oeste de EE.UU. este  viernes, pero no inmediatamente después de causar daños devastadores Japón y provocando evacuaciones en todo el Pacífico.


Kauai fue la primera de las islas de Hawai afectados por el tsunami,  causado por un terremoto en Japón, dijo el Centro de Alerta de Tsunamis del Pacífico.. El agua se precipitó a tierra en Honolulu, que abarca la playa de Waikiki.

Dont miss the Operation Squeegee Hunt!

All hunt items have been made and donated by `*~Zanzibar creationZ~*` . At present the ZcZ store is closed, but if for any reason you have a query about your products please send a notecard to Arora Zanzibar and she will answer you promptly.

All proceeds from your purchase of the hunt items today will be donated to the National Wildlife Foundation to aid in the cleanup of the gulf oil spill of the coast of America.



Items included in the hunt are:

~*~ Operation Squeegee necklace. A thick dark metal chain holding a large blue stone pendant encased in black woven metal spikes. Embedded into the stone is the Operation Squeegee Logo.

~*~ Gardeners Musical Hat. A slouchy style top hat with garden bed perched on the top. Garden comes complete with a family of two snails and a baby turtle. The hat is scripted so that when you walk it plays a cute little musical tune.

~*~ Snorse to the Rescue (1 blue and 1 pink hidden seperately). A Snorse is a Snail/Horse. A large snail bred for riding. Harnessed and with ridable animation. Just wear and walk/run.



~*~ Turtle Huggies. A smallish turtle that can be placed in the home or garden. 'Sit' on him and you'll lay down for some Turtle Huggies time together.



~*~ Large Garden Turtle. This large dopey looking fellow is great for hiding among the grass in the garden. Makes a perfect little resting spot when you 'sit' on him. Great for photos.



~*~ Operation Squeegee Garden Frog. My ever popular Garden frog which adorns all my Squelchy Wellies has grown up and likes it when you 'sit' with him. Rez him in your home or garden and sit down and relax.

~*~ A pack of tinies accesories. What started as me adorning my own avvies for the week turned into people asking where to get their own. So here they are. One of a kind only available during Operation Squeegee Dollarbie Hunt. A carriable bucket for a flying pennysnatcher (or similar), a hardhat with torch for an otter (or similar), a mouth bucket and head riding snail for a ferret (or similar).

OPERATION SQUEEGE - FUN TIME !

We received this awesome pack from *~*HopScotch*~*.

So we ran to the beach near our home to test it.

It's linden water, but tooo funy :)

ANOTHER HUNT !

Starts on July, 01 the Mad as a Hatter Hunt.
The gift needs to be....mad :)
The hunt gift will be a crazy hat, or a crazy pet, maybe a crazy crazy "I don't know why" loool
Come to check by yourself:)

HUNTS, HUNTS AND MORE HUNTS !

We really love the Grid Hunts, but not to umpack all the gifts.
Now we joined the Winged Key Hunt. This isn't a grid hunt, but a sim hunt.
We are in a Harry Potter themed sim, so what about a change color hat?
The funny part in this hunt is the way the hunters look for the keys, they have to ride brooms:)

I'm in front of my shop in Hogsmeade using my white hat.

Maybe my green hat?

 A black hat? Loool

~ Operation Squeegee - July 1st to 15th ~

I'm brazilian and i grow up in Rio de Janeiro. When things seems to be very bad, I use to do the same of all Rio de Janeiro citizens, go to a beach and watch the waves. This calmed me down a thousands times.... The waves, the sound, the smell....     
Now I'm an adult. Guess what kind of work i choose? I'm an environmental engineer :)
Last year i asked to a professor about this kind of oil spill accident, but I wasn't really happy with his answer. He said there are a lot of safety barriers to avoid them, but if this kind of accident happens, he really didn't  know how to stop it, but it never happened in Brazil.
Well, it didn't happen in Brazil, but it happened in Mexico Gulf.
Our planet is just one and the Earth doesn't support anymore what we, intelligent humans beings do.
We are devastating our planet, our home to consume more, to have more goodies....what more? Happiness?
Peace? Love? Not at all, these kind of thing we can't buy.
As we can't stop the spill, let's help to clean the sea ! Help the sea life as well. It will take a long time to recover the ocean balance, but we can help.
Let's join the Operation Squeege! It's Second Life helping Real Life.
Funds raised through Operation Squeegee will go to The National Wildlife Federation. Funds that are donated to the federation will support the following efforts:

* Development and deployment of the National Wildlife Federation’s Gulf Coast Surveillance Teams, a volunteer network that is being organized to monitor the coast for wildlife impacted by the oil spill. Beyond the initial surveillance needed, this effort will then shift to long term volunteer restoration programs.

* Restoration of vulnerable nesting and breeding grounds, as well as other delicate ecosystems found throughout the Gulf Coast for water birds, sea turtles and other animals.

* Public education about the oil spill and its impacts on wildlife, including our online efforts at www.nwf.org/oilspill and informing the press and others about the impacts the oil spill is having on coastal communities and wildlife.

* Policy work at the national and state level to support restoration of habitat in the Gulf Coast and better protection of our waters and coastlines.”

We all live in this beautifull blue little planet. We aren't the landowners.
Life needs to continue, to us and all the living beings in the Earth.
Hugs,
Dandara Swords

Remember the Herbology Class?

That's it. To honor the Hogwarts Classes, we have the Mandrake, a relative of the screaming mandragora. It moves and screams but not so loud as in the story!

You can have it :)
I took a lot of pics, to show it moving but it's much more fun to see it near you.
