The following is excerpted from the CFUW Week in Review:
  • CFUW is excited to share news with you about the launch of the International Campaign to Stop Rape & Gender Violence in Conflict with a Week of Action May 6-13. We at CFUW are thrilled to be a member of the first ever collaboration between Nobel Peace Laureates, international advocacy organizations, and groups working at the regional and community levels in conflict areas to stop rape. The campaign will demand urgent and bold political leadership to prevent rape in conflict, to protect civilians and rape survivors, and call for justice for all-including effective prosecution of those responsible. Visit the campaign pages on facebook and twitter to keep up to date on campaign actions and sign on to the campaign as an individual by visiting: http://nobelwomensinitiative.org/international-campaign-to-stop-rape-and-gender-violence-in-conflict/

    http://www.youtube.com/watch_popup?v=HzSaoN2LdfU - This link will take you to a wonderful rendition of "Memories" from Cats.  I'm sure you will see yourself in the song here and there.  It is an appropriate addition to the topic we explored with Jim Craigen at our April General Meeting.  Jim presented on "brain research", and helped us understand just a little better how our minds work, and why not to fret at occasional forgetfulness
