Greetings All,

Even since I first posted this url -- 
http://deathpenaltyusa.blogspot.com/ -- to CUADPUpdate this morning, 
several items have been added, including a photo of the Colosseum in 
Rome, all lit up to honor New Jersey's abolition of the death penalty 
- sent by our bluejersey.com friend Jay who blew 100,000 frequent 
flier miles to fly there at the last minute to capture the moment on 
his own camera.

IF you go to http://deathpenaltyusa.blogspot.com/ you will find 
photos and video clips that tell part of the story of the bill 
signing from yesterday.  There are also some links embedded in some 
of the text.  Check it out!

I want to thank everyone who has been sending congratulatory 
messages.  We especially thank the folks in California who sent the 
case of champaign!  Perhaps some of that will be left when we throw 
our big party here in New Jersey, which will probably happen in 
January or  February.  Details will be announced once they are set - 
probably after the 1st of the year.

At this time I urge you to consider AND MAKE a contribution to YOUR 
STATE ABOLITIONIST ORGANIZATION, and also to your favorite national 
organizations.  If you don't know your state group, send me an e-mail 
and I'll be happy to pass along the info.

Make a year-end contribution to CUADP using a credit card or PAYPAL
