GOOD NEWS SERVICE #15: NOV-Dec, 2009

Over the years, the message at Christmas and Hanukkah, in the midst of war and hatred, has been one for peace and good will for all. This issue celebrates a few of those individuals and groups who devote so much of their lives striving for both. One such person is Angela Pinchero, whose work for peace in the midst of violent conflicts in Sri Lanka and Sudan is briefly described in item #12, below.

1. ASTEROID ROTBLAT: NEW STAR IN THE HEAVENS

Dec. 7/09 via London Pugwash Office.
The International Astronomical Union has named an asteroid after Joseph Rotblat. He was a Nobel Peace Prize laureate in 1995 for his efforts toward nuclear disarmament. A signatory to the 1955 Russell-Einstein Manifesto, Rotblat was  the guiding spirit of the Pugwash Conference on Science and World Affairs and helped prevent the  use of nuclear weapons during the Cold War.

The Annual Retreat for Ottawa Monthly Meeting and the region will be held from supper time on Friday 5 February to lunch time on Sunday 7 February. For more details and persons to contact see the attachment below.
