Money is a way of keeping score in life. But that is just for those who like playing the game. The real goal is to live with grace and dignity. You can do that with a small amount of
money...or not do it with a fortune.

Lugar-Obama Bill to Keep Weapons Out of Terrorists' Hands Heads to Senate Floor
Bipartisan Effort Focuses on Antiaircraft Missiles, Stolen WMD and Conventional Weapons used in Improvised Roadside Bombs
WASHINGTON – On May 23, 2006, the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee passed out of committee, S. 2566, the Lugar-Obama Act. Modeled after the Nunn-Lugar program that focuses on weapons of mass destruction in the former Soviet Union , the bill was introduced by Senators Dick Lugar (R-IN) and Barack Obama (D-IL) to expand the cooperative threat reduction concept to conventional weapons.
Lugar-Obama would expand the detection and interdiction of weapons and materials of mass destruction.
