I agre...Hi Anonymous,<BR/><BR/>I am sorry you feel this way. I agree whole heartedly that rice makes better food than newspaper and shame on anyone one who is using the crisis facing my friends for nothing but their own personal gain. <BR/><BR/>However, to make such a broad statement about PR people is not fair to those of us who are working hard, on our own time, to cause a real change to take place. Also, you have no idea how much personal money I have invested in fighting injustice across the globe and how much 'rice' I have provided.<BR/><BR/>I know that compared to chartering a cargo plane filled with food and blankets, getting a local newspaper to write an article might seem small. But it does matter and it does work. <BR/><BR/>How is an average American to know that people need rice, know how to buy rice and know where to send rice if someone doesn't tell them?<BR/><BR/>I can testify personally, that due to "clippings" about Darfur and about my life, people are taking notice and making a difference. Two of the many examples I have are an elderly woman in Florida who mailed money to me (which I passed along to a relief organization) after reading an article I wrote about Darfur in her morning newspaper and a young nurse from Chicago who decided to go to Darfur to give medical care after hearing me speak on television.<BR/><BR/>I tried finding the "Darfurian Relief Society" online and could not find any mention of it. Please get in touch with me. I would love to work with you and your organization as we all have the common goal of saving the lives of my former neighbors in Darfur.<BR/><BR/>Best,<BR/>ScottScotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15653002242907025466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27508898.post-23194014255801933662007-10-25T12:31:00.000-05:002007-10-25T12:31:00.000-05:00In a statement released today the Darfurnian Relie...In a statement released today the Darfurnian Relief Society stated that:<BR/><BR/>All of the Public Relations people in the US are just using us to gain notoriety and acclaim among their colleagues.

All appeals will be displayed on our website and sent directly to participant's political representatives. On September 16, 2007 we will screen 24 hours of rolling footage at a rally in front of the UN headquarters and at smaller events at halls of power throughout the world - all connected through a real-time online broadcast. <BR/><BR/>US Presidential candidate John Edwards, Author Samantha Power, Actress Mia Farrow, two former United Nations Deputy Secretaries-General, two former United States Deputy Secretaries of State, and hundreds of private citizens from around the world have already submitted videos. Please join us in speaking out against genocide by <A HREF="http://www.24hoursfordarfur.org/create.php" REL="nofollow">submitting a video appeal of your own</A>. Use a webcam to record a video right in your web browser, or upload a video you've recorded offline. <BR/><BR/>We have also been working with scholars, practitioners, journalists and Darfuris to compile an online video library of educational material related to the conflict. Nicholas Kristof, John Prendergast, several Human Rights Watch researchers, and many others have already contributed educational videos. You can check it out by visiting our website's education section: <A HREF="http://www.24hoursfordarfur.org/education.php" REL="nofollow">24hoursfordarfur.org/education.php</A>.<BR/><BR/>For this campaign to make a significant contribution to Darfur advocacy, it needs to be truly global in scope. Having read some of your stories, we sincerely hope you'll lend your voice to the effort.<BR/><BR/>Kind Regards,<BR/>Matt Scarola<BR/>info@24hoursfordarfur.orgAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27508898.post-6949018741953565542007-06-14T07:49:00.000-05:002007-06-14T07:49:00.000-05:00tempur pedic mattress coverkingsdown mattressdisco...<B><A HREF="http://mattress.zabuzai.info/tempur-pedic-mattress-cover.html " REL="nofollow">tempur pedic mattress cover</A><BR/><A HREF="http://mattress.zabuzai.info/kingsdown-mattress.html " REL="nofollow">kingsdown mattress</A><BR/><A HREF="http://mattress.zabuzai.info/discount-mattress.html " REL="nofollow">discount mattress</A><BR/><A HREF="http://mattress.zabuzai.info/bed-mattress-futon.html " REL="nofollow">bed mattress futon</A><BR/><A HREF="http://mattress.zabuzai.info/futon-mattress.html " REL="nofollow">futon mattress</A><BR/><A HREF="http://mattress.zabuzai.info/mattress-firm.html " REL="nofollow">mattress firm</A><BR/><A HREF="http://mattress.zabuzai.info/mattress-giant.html " REL="nofollow">mattress giant</A><BR/><A HREF="http://mattress.zabuzai.info/original-mattress-factory.html " REL="nofollow">original mattress factory</A><BR/><A HREF="http://mattress.zabuzai.info/mattress-warehouse.html " REL="nofollow">mattress warehouse</A><BR/><A HREF="http://mattress.zabuzai.info/foam-mattress-memory-pad-toppers.html " REL="nofollow">foam mattress memory pad toppers</A><BR/><A HREF="http://mattress.zabuzai.info/water-bed-mattress.html " REL="nofollow">water bed mattress</A><BR/><A HREF="http://mattress.zabuzai.info/cheap-mattress.html " REL="nofollow">cheap mattress</A><BR/><A HREF="http://mattress.zabuzai.info/mattress-store.html " REL="nofollow">mattress store</A><BR/></B>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27508898.post-59648529564302930862007-06-13T15:01:00.000-05:002007-06-13T15:01:00.000-05:00mattress storefuton mattressmattress warehousedisc...<A HREF="http://mattress.dainamerin.info/mattress-store.html " REL="nofollow">mattress store</A><BR/><A HREF="http://mattress.dainamerin.info/futon-mattress.html " REL="nofollow">futon mattress</A><BR/><A HREF="http://mattress.dainamerin.info/mattress-warehouse.html " REL="nofollow">mattress warehouse</A><BR/><A HREF="http://mattress.dainamerin.info/discount-mattress.html " REL="nofollow">discount mattress</A><BR/><A HREF="http://mattress.dainamerin.info/original-mattress-factory.html " REL="nofollow">original mattress factory</A><BR/><A HREF="http://mattress.dainamerin.info/kingsdown-mattress.html " REL="nofollow">kingsdown mattress</A><BR/><A HREF="http://mattress.dainamerin.info/mattress-giant.html " REL="nofollow">mattress giant</A><BR/><A HREF="http://mattress.dainamerin.info/water-bed-mattress.html " REL="nofollow">water bed mattress</A><BR/><A HREF="http://mattress.dainamerin.info/cheap-mattress.html " REL="nofollow">cheap mattress</A><BR/><A HREF="http://mattress.dainamerin.info/tempur-pedic-mattress-cover.html " REL="nofollow">tempur pedic mattress cover</A><BR/><A HREF="http://mattress.dainamerin.info/bed-mattress-futon.html " REL="nofollow">bed mattress futon</A><BR/><A HREF="http://mattress.dainamerin.info/mattress-firm.html " REL="nofollow">mattress firm</A><BR/><A HREF="http://mattress.dainamerin.info/foam-mattress-memory-pad-toppers.html " REL="nofollow">foam mattress memory pad toppers</A>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27508898.post-6353484762943920982007-05-29T11:36:00.000-05:002007-05-29T11:36:00.000-05:00Hey Scott!Thanks so much for mentioning our benefi...Hey Scott!<BR/><BR/>Thanks so much for mentioning our benefit concert on your homepage.<BR/><BR/>I personally apologize for not getting to this sooner...

Our goal in bringing together the top Darfur activists from across the country is to build a stronger constituency of leaders that are dedicated to ending genocide and crimes against humanity.<BR/><BR/>During the weekend we will have high level discussions about the deteriorating situation in Darfur and what needs to be done; provide training on best practices and genocide education; begin looking at other areas of conflict; and have time to develop plans for unifying national grassroots efforts.<BR/><BR/>I invite you to fill out the online application at: http://www.ushmm.org/conscience/alert/students/events/2007-03-23/.<BR/><BR/>Please let me know of other activists that would contribute positively to this Summit or should you have any questions.
