Wise plan to move them

Dad "" http://disc.server.com/Indices/29774.html#846 http://disc.server.com/discussion.cg...n%20Discussion Garry Denke WISE PLAN TO MOVE THEM Tue Aug 28, 2007 02:33 76.182.220.150 Dear Tamara, Unfortunately, only the 35 ton Heelstone next to Highway A344 is protecting the artifacts below it, not UNESCO. That is probably why Tamara the Sovereign decided to have them surfaced, before the Heelstone is dozered on 5th September 2007. I commend Her Majesty's Government for backing the Monarch's WISE PLAN TO MOVE THEM before they are stolen. http://www.flickr.com/photos/10911569@N08/979647239 http://groups.msn.com/stonehengegeologyandgeophysics http://groups.yahoo.com/group/stoneh...yandgeophysics ARABIAN ORYX HERDS MOVED http://www.iucnredlist.org/search/details.php/15569/all "The last few years have seen a sharp decline in the Oman population, mainly due to illegal live-capture for private collections, and a steady increase in the size of the two reintroduced populations in Saudi Arabia. The Oman population fell from 450 in 1996 to 106 by early 2003, but the effective size is much smaller as these consist of an estimated 100 males and only six females. In Saudi Arabia, numbers rose from approximately 400 in 1997 to approximately 700 by early 2003. There has also been a small increase in the Israeli population. Thus, current overall numbers of reintroduced oryx are approximately the same as they were in 1997." Just last week the Environment Agency-Abu Dhabi announced plans to release 100 Arabian Oryx into the wild each year. There are about 6,000 Arabian Oryx in the world now, of which about 3,000 are in the UAE (between Oman and Saudi Arabia) seven countries. UNESCO did not want them moved from Oman to the better environment, funny how UNESCO conveniently failed to mention these facts in their article. http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/654 http://www.zawya.com/Story.cfm/sidZA...7D00D0B74A0D7C Thanks to Oman Oil, Saudi Aramco and UAE Oil's seven countries they were not stolen. And Tamara, the Arabian Oryx are now thriving in their homeland environment thanks to the Phoenix Zoo, and others. I commend Oman Oil, Saudi Aramco and UAE Oil's seven countries for backing the King's WISE PLAN TO MOVE THEM before they were stolen, against UNESCO wishes. http://www.oman-oil.com/default.asp http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saudi_Aramco http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Arab_Emirates Garry Denke "" |
