Dear Friends,

One may click on any blue underlined text for a link to a summary, the full 
text story, and to comment on any article.  Please see 
http://quakersinthenews.blogspot.com for a chronological archive of all stories this year.

The most widely reported story of the week had 33 occurences in the US, and 1 
in the UK (The Guardian) picking up the AP wire story.  The article did not 
mention that AFSC is associated with the Religious Society of Friends, or 
Quakers.  The story quotes an AFSC community organizer in the sit-in at the 
University of Hawaii over the University's plan to establish a U.S. Navy Resarch 
Center there this year.

Sentinel/Santa Cruz/CA/USA/01-May-05
