   About Wish Hounds
Sorry it took so long...




About the song 'Into Our Arms':

David Matthew Hicks, an Australian, was in US custody at the Guantanamo military prison in Cuba and held for more than five years since being captured in Afghanistan. In March, 2007 David was finally charged, retrospectively, with "material support for terrorism". After an extorted confession of guilt he was sentenced to 7 years further imprisonment, of which 6 years and 3 months was suspended. On the 20th of May, David was transported to Adelaide's Yatala prison to serve his nine-month sentence. He was finally released on December 29, 2007.


Woodman, spare that tree!
Touch not a single bough!
In youth it sheltered me,
And I'll protect it now.

'Woodman, Spare That Tree' (1830). Cf. Campbell 176:11

END WORLD HUNGER

http://www.freerice.com/index.php

It's as simple as this: play a vocabulary game and for every correct answer, 10 grains of rice is donated to the United Nations. The game has 50 levels of difficulty and the more you answer, the harder the questions get. Improve your vocabulary, and donate food to needy families around the world.

Take a few minutes a day and challenge yourself, and pass it on to as many people as you can.

~Thanks
Charlene
