Ban Cluster Boms Now

I've just sent a message to government leaders urging a strong ban on cluster bombs. I hope you'll join me. Here's the link:

And here's more info from Avaaz.org:


Final negotiations are underway right now in Dublin, Ireland on a treaty to ban cluster bombs -- but its outcome is in danger.

Cluster munitions don't just kill during war--they scatter small, unexploded "bomblets" on the ground. When children pick them up, they are often maimed or killed. Most governments agree that they should be banned--but many are now trying to weaken the proposed treaty with loopholes, exemptions, and delays.

Negotiations end this Thursday. If enough of us raise our voices, we can drown out the arms manufacturers and convince our governments to do the right thing. Click below to send a message, and then forward this email to friends and family:

The leak has been fixed, but now I have a hole in the ceiling.

Today is not so good. The ceiling has been leaking all night and good part of the day, yet no one has fixed it. Hope some one will come soon.
