Devastating earthquake in Kashmir last month—a disaster the World Health Organization has declared worse than the South Asian tsunami—killed at least 79,000 people, injured 80,000 others, and rendered more than three million survivors homeless. Through January 6, your donations will have double the impact.
Omidyar Network will match dollar-for-dollar the first $25,000 donated by omidyar.net members to Kashmir earthquake projects on globalgiving.com. This offer is valid for donations made between 11/23/05 and 12/31/05. To be eligible, you must be a member of omidyar.net (join for no obligation), and register your donation on the omidyar.net website.
The situation is worsening daily as winter moves in. Help today.

Interesting Car News
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recently announced that 6.3 million vehicle crashes each year involve driver distraction. With new technology being implemented in cars, more distractions exist than ever before. So be careful when using car phones, car fax machines and e-mail, and complex audio systems. Remember, your car's main purpose is to get you somewhere.
