Subject: Global Warming International Conference 2012 Invitation
To:


This is to announce the call for participation at the Global Warming International Conference 2012 (GWIC 12), 20th - 24th April 2012 at Eco Garden Hotel, 23 Brook Street, London, W1K 4HA, United Kingdom.

Background

The Stern Review underlined that increased investment in R&D and innovation could significantly reduce CO2 emissions and we have seen more than Ј3 billion of venture capital invested in clean tech worldwide since January 2007 (Source: Ernst & Young). However, we need to create much better international, national and regional structures and systems to adapt to climate change as well those to stimulate, nurture and progress new low carbon ideas through R&D to commercialization and the marketplace. A new system is needed that fosters sustainable, low carbon and resource productive innovation - short, medium and long-term. Designers, innovators, investors, entrepreneurs, consumers and governments all have a role to play in the change that is needed.
 

Concept

GWIC 12 themed "Impacts of Global Warming on the Environment" Global Warming Policy and Markets will provide a platform to discuss the future opportunities and challenges related to the design, development and commercialization of low carbon innovation, technologies, products and services. GWIC 12 will include invited and refereed papers from academics, consultants, entrepreneurs, investors, technology providers, designers, sustainability, environment and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) managers as well as other business functions. The event will be a unique learning experience, networking space and an opportunity to think. Delegates will come globally from companies, entrepreneurs, as well as academia, government and non-governmental organizations (NGOs). The conference is supported by an international Advisory Board.

>>>> Following is a SCAM!!

It is a variant of common Lottery Scam.

The main reasons for identifying this as fraud are:

1) The awarder does not even know the name and contact details of the award winner! (Addresses the recipient by 'Dear Lucky Winner'!)
2) The contact e-mail ID: claimsdep@espncrickets.com is not an official one and its MX records shows that mails to this ID is delivered to a Windows Live/Hotmail Custom Email ID for Domains! (461ff140521209459971699599c439.pamx1.hotmail.com) ESPN STAR will never do such a thing!
3) The domain "espncrickets.com" is NOT OFFICIAL and there is no website live at that address.
4) The domain "espncrickets.com" is a recently registered one, it was created only in 16-feb-2012!
5) The new question in this variant at "14. Have You Won Before: Yes Or No? ........." is irrelevant! Any credible company will have maintained a record of their previous winners!
6) Lastly, please bear it in mind "NOTHING COMES FREE IN THIS WORLD"!!

Chain Letter - Jesus Death - 60 seconds

>>>> Following is a Chain Letter!!


===============================


---------- Forwarded message ----------
From: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Subject: Fwd: FW: Jesus Death - 60 seconds
To: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

JESUS DEATH - 60 SECONDS 
                                                                  
  For 
the next 60 seconds, set aside whatever
you're doing and take this opportunity!
Let's see if Satan can stop this... 


 
  THE (SCIENTIFIC) DEATH OF JESUS 




At the  age of 33,
Jesus was condemned to the death penalty.
 





At the  time crucifixion was the "worst" death. Only the worst criminals
condemned to be crucified. Yet it was
even more dreadful for Jesus, for unlike other criminals
condemned to death by crucifixion Jesus was nailed to
the cross by His hands and feet, rather than tied...

Each  nail
was 6 to 8 inches long. 




The  nails
were driven into His wrist.  Not
into His palms  as is commonly
portrayed. There's a tendon in the wrist that 
extends to the shoulder.  The Roman guards knew
that when the nails were being hammered into the
Wrist, that tendon would tear and
break, forcing Jesus to use His back
muscles to support himself, so that He could breathe.   



Both of His feet
were nailed together. Thus He was forced to 
support Himself on the single nail that
impaled His feet to the cross.  Jesus could
not support himself with His legs for long because of the pain,
so He was forced to alternate between arching His
back and using his legs just to continue to 
breath.  Imagine the struggle, the pain, the
suffering, the courage. 

Jesus endured this
reality for over 3 hours. 

Yes, 
over 3 hours! Can you imagine this kind of
suffering? A few minutes before He died,
Jesus stopped bleeding. He was simply pouring water
from his wounds. 

From  common images we see wounds to His hands and
feet and even the spear wound to His side... 
But do we remember the many wounds 
made to his body.  A hammer
driving large nails through the wrists, the feet overlapped
and a nail hammered through the arches, then a
Roman guard piercing  His side with a spear. And...
before the nails and the spear, Jesus was whipped and
beaten.  The whipping was so severe that it tore the
flesh from His body. The beating so horrific that His
face was torn and his beard ripped from His face. The
crown of thorns (two to three inch thorns) cut deeply into His scalp.
Most men would not have survived this torture.  

He had no more blood
to bleed out, only water poured from His 
wounds.  The 
human adult body contains about 5 liters
(just over a  gallon) of blood. 



Jesus  poured all 5 liters of his blood;
He had three nails hammered into His
body; a crown of thorns on His head and, beyond
that, a Roman soldier who stabbed a spear into His 
chest.. 







All  these without
mentioning the humiliation He passed after carrying His own
cross for almost 2 kilometers, while the crowd  spat in his
face and threw stones (the cross beam was almost 30 kg of weight, to which His hands were nailed). 

Jesus had to endure this experience,
so that you may have free access to God. 



So that your sins can be "washed" away.
All of them, with no exception!
Don't ignore this.

JESUS 
CHRIST DIED...FOR YOU!

For you, who now read this e-mail.
Do not believe that He only died for others
(those who go to church or for pastors, bishops, etc). 

He died for you!
It is easy to e-mail jokes or silly photos,
but when it comes to God,
sometimes we feel ashamed to forward a message about Him on
to others.
We are worried of what they may think. 



Accept  the reality, the truth, that
JESUS IS THE ONLY SALVATION FOR THE WORLD. 

God has special plans for YOU!
Share this with all your friends...
about what He went through to save you.
Really think about it!

May God bless you! 



For the next 60 seconds,
set aside what you're doing and take
this opportunity! Let's see if Satan can stop this. 



All you  have to do is:



1.Pray for the person who sent this message to you. 



2. Send this message to 10 people...More if you wish.



3.That way, 10 people will pray for you
and you will encourage many people
to pray to God for others. 



4. Take a moment to appreciate the power of God in your life,
as you do what pleases Him.



If you are not ashamed to do this, please, follow Jesus' instructions. 
He said (Matthew 10:32 & 33): "Everyone therefore 
who acknowledges me before others, I also will acknowledge 
before My Father in heaven; but whosoever denies Me
before  others,  I also will deny before My
Father in  heaven". 



If you  believe,
send this message... But send it only if you believe 
in Christ Jesus as your Lord and Savior. 



Yes, I love God. He
is my source of life and my Savior.
He keeps me alive and safe, both day and night. 



Without Him, I am nothing,
but with Him "I can do all things through Him 
who strengthens me". Philippians 4:13.
