    Extractions: Sponsors aren't just the means of our financial support, they are the evidence of our standing in the world community. Political leaders may overlook the efforts of a few hundred Israelis and Palestinians, but not the support of thousands of individuals, places of worship, humanitarian aid agencies and peace organizations worldwide. Please add your name to the list. There are many ways of being a sponsor: direct donation; donations in kind; publicizing our campaign to your own members (we call this a "coalition member"); and matching grants. Please choose the method best for you, or contact us with other suggestions. Thank you!

Bring a flower Bring a sign with the name of your community or organization written large on it and any other Peace message or image you'd like. Colorful is good.

    Extractions: OSLO, Norway (AP) Former Illinois Gov. George Ryan, who emptied the state's death row because he found the imposition of capital punishment unfair, is among those nominated for the 2003 Nobel Peace Prize. Clari News The nominating deadline entries had to be postmarked Friday brought a flood of last-minute names to the committee charged with selecting the winner of the prestigious award. It is presented on Dec. 10, the anniversary of Swedish creator Alfred Nobel's death in 1896. The winner, announced in mid-October, takes home approximately $1 million. "There is a lot of mail and many new proposals, but beyond that we have nothing to say," Geir Lundestad, the secretary of the secretive five-member awards committee, told The Associated Press on Friday. The prizes in physiology or medicine, literature, physics, chemistry and economics are awarded in the Swedish capital, Stockholm, while the peace prize is awarded in Oslo. The Peace Prize committee keeps the list of candidates secret for 50 years, only releasing the number of nominations it receives. Last year, when former President Carter won the prize, 156 nominations were submitted.
