		<description><![CDATA[Primarily politicians need to hear from Victorians (provide your address) saying that this brutal activity must be stopped.  Interstate and overseas supporters could say that Victoria should follow the other Labor states which have banned duck-shooting and that the issue is now one of national environmental significance. 

Thank you from the Coalition Against Duck Shooting CADS

		<description><![CDATA[You may have already read or heard about Rocky, a big red kangaroo who’s life is spent performing with a clown who goads him into boxing, but then is pulled back by a harness and tether.  It is truly saddening to see these magnificent animals being reduced to a side show spectacle. Please support this petition to free Rocky from his living hell and send it on to your friends.

		<description><![CDATA[Ada Lovelace Day is an international day of blogging (videologging, podcasting, comic drawing etc.!) to draw attention to the achievements of women in technology and science. 

Women’s contributions often go unacknowledged, their innovations seldom mentioned, their faces rarely recognised. We want you to tell the world about these unsung heroines, whatever they do. It doesn’t matter how new or old your blog is, what gender you are, what language you blog in, or what you normally blog about – everyone is invited. Just sign the pledge at Finding Ada and publish your blog post any time on Wednesday 24th March 2010.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In researching Find Your Tribe, Rebecca Sparrow talked to a lot of other people in the public eye about their high school days and consulted the professionals about current issues teenage girls face today. While obviously well-positioned to provide expert advice about the tricky teenage years (Rebecca also accidentally set fire to her fake fingernails, tried her hardest to look like Madonna in lace and crucifixes, and arrived home one day with multiple ear piercings) she supplements her advice with a wellspring of additional reliable resources including recommended reading lists and websites.]]></description>
