IWD

In case you didn't know it is International Women's today http://www.internationalwomensday.com/default.asp

The key focus this year as I understand it is the ending og Violence against women. You may have read about Rihanna being battered by Chris Brown
she has apparently forgiven him but the Police and others haven't so chance are taht he may be charged with assault. It be great
if this becomes the norm, as it helps educate those that abuse others in a domestic setting. Incidentally this includes women abusing
other women, and women abusing men.

Elsewhere in the world women are socially and economically excluded and today is also about celebrating the acheivements of women in these areas

Back here in the UK this day is being marked by looking at women's contribution to economic recovery

Did you also know that the men in some Eastern european countries mark this day by giving the women in their lives a single red rose:-)
