Benefits of Good News

I think the press, including TV journalism, has an ethical responsibility, a sacred responsibility, a service mission ... to make good news just as entertaining (as we've made sexy the violence).

IMAGINE. . . Imagine a machine that can turn almost anything into oil. Imagine that it uses natural processes like heat and pressure, and produces no pollution. Imagine that waste from landfills, refuse from poultry factories, sludge from city sewage, or even infectious medical waste, are used to make the oil. Everybody says it sounds too good to be true. But now we have the science -- and two factories -- to prove it.

"This is a solution to three of the biggest problems facing mankind," Brian Appel, CEO of Changing World Technologies, Inc., told Discover magazine in a May 2003 feature article. "This process can deal with the world's waste. It can supplement our dwindling supplies of oil. And it can slow down global warming."

The process is called thermal depolymerization. Waste goes in one end and comes out the other as three products, all valuable and environmentally benign: High-quality oil, clean-burning gas, and purified minerals that can be used as fuels, fertilizers, or specialty chemicals for manufacturing. . .

kurek-book.jpg Have you ever thought of using love as a method of quitting your unhealthy addictions —to cigarettes or food  — or as a method of finding success in life or business to turn around negativity and underachievement? Peak Performance & Success Coach Kurek Ashely has. His new book How Would Love Respond?: Imagine If You Were Given a Gift So Powerful That You Knew You Had to Share It with the World teaches you how to set and achieve goals with no limitations. A death experience helped turn his life around and taught him how to change using the infinite power of love.
After a horrific helicopter crash in which his best friend died in his arms, Kurek Ashley suffered for two years with severe depression, until he finally experienced a transformation through the source of pure and infinite love. After receiving a glimpse into the source of this infinite power, he transformed his own life and has transformed the lives of tens of thousands of people around the world. With his higher purpose in mind, he offers "How Would Love Respond?" a spiritual toolkit for creating global abundance through love and by harnessing and directing the thought processes that create success and failure. How would love respond? This is the powerful question that changes every decision and can change lives.
